[ Upstream commit de2b41be8fcccb2f5b6c480d35df590476344201 ]

On x86-32 the idt_table with 256 entries needs only 2048 bytes. It is
page-aligned, but the end of the .bss..page_aligned section is not
guaranteed to be page-aligned.

As a result, objects from other .bss sections may end up on the same 4k
page as the idt_table, and will accidentially get mapped read-only during
boot, causing unexpected page-faults when the kernel writes to them.

This could be worked around by making the objects in the page aligned
sections page sized, but that's wrong.

Explicit sections which store only page aligned objects have an implicit
guarantee that the object is alone in the page in which it is placed. That
works for all objects except the last one. That's inconsistent.

Enforcing page sized objects for these sections would wreckage memory
sanitizers, because the object becomes artificially larger than it should
be and out of bound access becomes legit.

Align the end of the .bss..page_aligned and .data..page_aligned section on
page-size so all objects places in these sections are guaranteed to have
their own page.

[ Upstream commit cbedfe11347fe418621bd188d58a206beb676218 ]

Commit d66acc39c7ce ("bitops: Optimise get_order()") introduced a
compilation warning because "rx_frag_size" is an "ushort" while
PAGE_SHIFT here is 16.

The commit changed the get_order() to be a multi-line macro where
compilers insist to check all statements in the macro even when
__builtin_constant_p(rx_frag_size) will return false as "rx_frag_size"
is a module parameter.

The architecture implementations of 'arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser()' and
'futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic()' are permitted to return only -EFAULT,
-EAGAIN or -ENOSYS in the case of failure.

Update the comments in the asm-generic/ implementation and also a stray
reference in the robust futex documentation.

commit f76a16adc485699f95bb71fce114f97c832fe664 upstream.

The .orc_unwind section is a packed array of 6-byte structs.  It's
currently aligned to 6 bytes, which is causing warnings in the LLD
linker.

Six isn't a power of two, so it's not a valid alignment value.  The
actual alignment doesn't matter much because it's an array of packed
structs.  An alignment of two is sufficient.  In reality it always gets
aligned to four bytes because it comes immediately after the
4-byte-aligned .orc_unwind_ip section.

[ Upstream commit 6cc65be4f6f2a7186af8f3e09900787c7912dad2 ]

One of my tests compiles the kernel with gcc 4.5.3, and I hit the
following build error:

  include/linux/semaphore.h: In function 'sema_init':
  include/linux/semaphore.h:35:17: error: unknown field 'val' specified in initializer
  include/linux/semaphore.h:35:17: warning: missing braces around initializer
  include/linux/semaphore.h:35:17: warning: (near initialization for '(anonymous).raw_lock.&lt;anonymous&gt;.val')

I bisected it down to:

 625e88be1f41 ("locking/qspinlock: Merge 'struct __qspinlock' into 'struct qspinlock'")

... which makes qspinlock have an anonymous union, which makes initializing it special
for older compilers. By adding strategic brackets, it makes the build
happy again.

commit 625e88be1f41b53cec55827c984e4a89ea8ee9f9 upstream.

'struct __qspinlock' provides a handy union of fields so that
subcomponents of the lockword can be accessed by name, without having to
manage shifts and masks explicitly and take endianness into account.

This is useful in qspinlock.h and also potentially in arch headers, so
move the 'struct __qspinlock' into 'struct qspinlock' and kill the extra
definition.

commit 785a19f9d1dd8a4ab2d0633be4656653bd3de1fc upstream.

The following kernel panic was observed on ARM64 platform due to a stale
TLB entry.

 1. ioremap with 4K size, a valid pte page table is set.
 2. iounmap it, its pte entry is set to 0.
 3. ioremap the same address with 2M size, update its pmd entry with
    a new value.
 4. CPU may hit an exception because the old pmd entry is still in TLB,
    which leads to a kernel panic.

Commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page
table") has addressed this panic by falling to pte mappings in the above
case on ARM64.

To support pmd mappings in all cases, TLB purge needs to be performed
in this case on ARM64.

Add a new arg, 'addr', to pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page()
so that TLB purge can be added later in seprate patches.

<content type='text'>
commit 6c26fcd2abfe0a56bbd95271fce02df2896cfd24 upstream.

pfn_modify_allowed() and arch_has_pfn_modify_check() are outside of the
!__ASSEMBLY__ section in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h, which confuses
assembler on archs that don't have __HAVE_ARCH_PFN_MODIFY_ALLOWED (e.g.
ia64) and breaks build:

    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: Assembler messages:
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:538: Error: Unknown opcode `static inline bool pfn_modify_allowed(unsigned long pfn,pgprot_t prot)'
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:540: Error: Unknown opcode `return true'
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:543: Error: Unknown opcode `static inline bool arch_has_pfn_modify_check(void)'
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:545: Error: Unknown opcode `return false'
    arch/ia64/kernel/entry.S:69: Error: `mov' does not fit into bundle

Move those two static inlines into the !__ASSEMBLY__ section so that they
don't confuse the asm build pass.
