<id>urn:sha1:bdf8da21c14ab4e1bb8ca707fd64cb0bc06e4e30</id>
<content type='text'>
commit f775276edc0c505dc0f782773796c189f31a1123 upstream.

The inline assembly constraints for xor_xc_2() are incorrect. "bytes",
"p1", and "p2" are input operands, while all three of them are modified
within the inline assembly. Given that the function consists only of this
inline assembly it seems unlikely that this may cause any problems, however
fix this in any case.

<content type='text'>
commit 89aba4c26fae4e459f755a18912845c348ee48f3 upstream.

Add missing earlyclobber annotation to size, to, and tmp2 operands of the
__clear_user() inline assembly since they are modified or written to before
the last usage of all input operands. This can lead to incorrect register
allocation for the inline assembly.

For some exception types the instruction address points behind the
instruction that caused the exception. Take that into account and add
the missing exception table entries.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

 - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

 - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

 - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
   memory-failure

 - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
   page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

 - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
   memory consumption.

 - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

 - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

 - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

 - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

 - migration enhancements from Peter Xu

 - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

 - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
   tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
   drivers, etc.

 - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

 - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

 - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
   activity.

 - THP &amp; KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

 - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

 - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

 - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

 - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

 - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

 - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

<content type='text'>
Introduce instrument_copy_from_user_before() and
instrument_copy_from_user_after() hooks to be invoked before and after the
call to copy_from_user().

KASAN and KCSAN will be only using instrument_copy_from_user_before(), but
for KMSAN we'll need to insert code after copy_from_user().

When CONFIG_EXPOLINE_EXTERN is used expoline thunks are generated
from arch/s390/lib/expoline.S and postlinked into every module.
This is also true for external modules. Add expoline.o build to
the modules_prepare target.

Explicitly provide identical sized original/alternative instruction
sequences. This way there is no need for the s390 specific alternatives
infrastructure to generate padding sequences.
The code which generates such sequences will be removed with a follow on
patch.

<id>urn:sha1:30de14b1884ba609fc1acfba5b40309e3a6ccefe</id>
<content type='text'>
s390 defines current_stack_pointer as function while all other
architectures use 'register unsigned long asm("&lt;stackptr reg&gt;").

This make codes like the following from check_stack_object() fail:

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP)) {
		if ((void *)current_stack_pointer &lt; obj + len)
			return BAD_STACK;
	} else {
		if (obj &lt; (void *)current_stack_pointer)
			return BAD_STACK;
	}

because this would compare the address of current_stack_pointer() and
not the stackpointer value.
