[ Upstream commit 63e2f40c9e3187641afacde4153f54b3ee4dbc8c ]

My earlier fix missed an incorrect function prototype that shows up on
native 32-bit builds:

In file included from fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c:14:
include/linux/syscalls.h:248:25: error: conflicting types for 'sys_fanotify_mark'; have 'long int(int,  unsigned int,  u32,  u32,  int,  const char *)' {aka 'long int(int,  unsigned int,  unsigned int,  unsigned int,  int,  const char *)'}
 1924 | SYSCALL32_DEFINE6(fanotify_mark,
      | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/syscalls.h:862:17: note: previous declaration of 'sys_fanotify_mark' with type 'long int(int,  unsigned int,  u64,  int, const char *)' {aka 'long int(int,  unsigned int,  long long unsigned int,  int,  const char *)'}

On x86 and powerpc, the prototype is also wrong but hidden in an #ifdef,
so it never caused problems.

Add another alternative declaration that matches the conditional function
definition.

<title>ftruncate: pass a signed offset</title>

commit 4b8e88e563b5f666446d002ad0dc1e6e8e7102b0 upstream.

The old ftruncate() syscall, using the 32-bit off_t misses a sign
extension when called in compat mode on 64-bit architectures.  As a
result, passing a negative length accidentally succeeds in truncating
to file size between 2GiB and 4GiB.

Changing the type of the compat syscall to the signed compat_off_t
changes the behavior so it instead returns -EINVAL.

The native entry point, the truncate() syscall and the corresponding
loff_t based variants are all correct already and do not suffer
from this mistake.

<id>urn:sha1:c02d3872c8dd53c2760520992b6ce527081553c4</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 56062d60f117dccfb5281869e0ab61e090baf864 upstream.

Presently ia32 registers stored in ptregs are unconditionally cast to
unsigned int by the ia32 stub. They are then cast to long when passed to
__se_sys*, but will not be sign extended.

This takes the sign of the syscall argument into account in the ia32
stub. It still casts to unsigned int to avoid implementation specific
behavior. However then casts to int or unsigned int as necessary. So that
the following cast to long sign extends the value.

This fixes the io_pgetevents02 LTP test when compiled with -m32. Presently
the systemcall io_pgetevents_time64() unexpectedly accepts -1 for the
maximum number of events.

It doesn't appear other systemcalls with signed arguments are effected
because they all have compat variants defined and wired up.

Fixes: ebeb8c82ffaf ("syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32")

<content type='text'>
There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS
can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and
any references to it.

This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX.

As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to
set_fs()/get_fs(), mm_segment_t, user_addr_max() and uaccess_kernel().

<title>futex: Implement sys_futex_waitv()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf69bad38cf63d980e8a603f8d1bd1f85b5ed3d9</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support to wait on multiple futexes. This is the interface
implemented by this syscall:

futex_waitv(struct futex_waitv *waiters, unsigned int nr_futexes,
	    unsigned int flags, struct timespec *timeout, clockid_t clockid)

struct futex_waitv {
	__u64 val;
	__u64 uaddr;
	__u32 flags;
	__u32 __reserved;
};

Given an array of struct futex_waitv, wait on each uaddr. The thread
wakes if a futex_wake() is performed at any uaddr. The syscall returns
immediately if any waiter has *uaddr != val. *timeout is an optional
absolute timeout value for the operation. This syscall supports only
64bit sized timeout structs. The flags argument of the syscall should be
empty, but it can be used for future extensions. Flags for shared
futexes, sizes, etc. should be used on the individual flags of each
waiter.

__reserved is used for explicit padding and should be 0, but it might be
used for future extensions. If the userspace uses 32-bit pointers, it
should make sure to explicitly cast it when assigning to waitv::uaddr.

Returns the array index of one of the woken futexes. There’s no given
information of how many were woken, or any particular attribute of it
(if it’s the first woken, if it is of the smaller index...).
