[ Upstream commit af9c5d2e3b355854ff0e4acfbfbfadcd5198a349 ]

compiletime_assert() uses __LINE__ to create a unique function name.  This
means that if you have more than one BUILD_BUG_ON() in the same source
line (which can happen if they appear e.g.  in a macro), then the error
message from the compiler might output the wrong condition.

For this source file:

	#include &lt;linux/build_bug.h&gt;

	#define macro() \
		BUILD_BUG_ON(1); \
		BUILD_BUG_ON(0);

	void foo()
	{
		macro();
	}

gcc would output:

./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_9' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 0
  _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __LINE__)

However, it was not the BUILD_BUG_ON(0) that failed, so it should say 1
instead of 0. With this patch, we use __COUNTER__ instead of __LINE__, so
each BUILD_BUG_ON() gets a different function name and the correct
condition is printed:

./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_0' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 1
  _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __COUNTER__)

The read is outside percpu_counter::lock critical section which results in
a data race.  Fix it by adding a READ_ONCE() in
percpu_counter_read_positive() which could also service as the existing
compiler memory barrier.

<title>signal: Extend exec_id to 64bits</title>

<id>urn:sha1:110012a2c94ad4fa28234a1b39e54fd4114fbaf2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit d1e7fd6462ca9fc76650fbe6ca800e35b24267da upstream.

Replace the 32bit exec_id with a 64bit exec_id to make it impossible
to wrap the exec_id counter.  With care an attacker can cause exec_id
wrap and send arbitrary signals to a newly exec'd parent.  This
bypasses the signal sending checks if the parent changes their
credentials during exec.

The severity of this problem can been seen that in my limited testing
of a 32bit exec_id it can take as little as 19s to exec 65536 times.
Which means that it can take as little as 14 days to wrap a 32bit
exec_id.  Adam Zabrocki has succeeded wrapping the self_exe_id in 7
days.  Even my slower timing is in the uptime of a typical server.
Which means self_exec_id is simply a speed bump today, and if exec
gets noticably faster self_exec_id won't even be a speed bump.

Extending self_exec_id to 64bits introduces a problem on 32bit
architectures where reading self_exec_id is no longer atomic and can
take two read instructions.  Which means that is is possible to hit
a window where the read value of exec_id does not match the written
value.  So with very lucky timing after this change this still
remains expoiltable.

I have updated the update of exec_id on exec to use WRITE_ONCE
and the read of exec_id in do_notify_parent to use READ_ONCE
to make it clear that there is no locking between these two
locations.

commit 3f5b9959041e0db6dacbea80bb833bff5900999f upstream.

When CONFIG_DEVFREQ_THERMAL is disabled all functions except
of_devfreq_cooling_register_power() were already inlined. Also inline
the last function to avoid compile errors when multiple drivers call
of_devfreq_cooling_register_power() when CONFIG_DEVFREQ_THERMAL is not
set. Compilation failed with the following message:
  multiple definition of `of_devfreq_cooling_register_power'
(which then lists all usages of of_devfreq_cooling_register_power())

Thomas Zimmermann reported this problem [0] on a kernel config with
CONFIG_DRM_LIMA={m,y}, CONFIG_DRM_PANFROST={m,y} and
CONFIG_DEVFREQ_THERMAL=n after both, the lima and panfrost drivers
gained devfreq cooling support.

commit 2c935bc57221cc2edc787c72ea0e2d30cdcd3d5e upstream.

Since we need to change the implementation, stop exposing internals.

Provide kref_read() to read the current reference count; typically
used for debug messages.

Kills two anti-patterns:

	atomic_read(&amp;kref-&gt;refcount)
	kref-&gt;refcount.counter

Avoid global variables (namely sel_cons) by introducing vc_is_sel. It
checks whether the parameter is the current selection console. This will
help putting sel_cons to a struct later.

commit 8019ad13ef7f64be44d4f892af9c840179009254 upstream.

As reported by Jann, ihold() does not in fact guarantee inode
persistence. And instead of making it so, replace the usage of inode
pointers with a per boot, machine wide, unique inode identifier.

This sequence number is global, but shared (file backed) futexes are
rare enough that this should not become a performance issue.

<content type='text'>
commit 763802b53a427ed3cbd419dbba255c414fdd9e7c upstream.

Commit 3f8fd02b1bf1 ("mm/vmalloc: Sync unmappings in
__purge_vmap_area_lazy()") introduced a call to vmalloc_sync_all() in
the vunmap() code-path.  While this change was necessary to maintain
correctness on x86-32-pae kernels, it also adds additional cycles for
architectures that don't need it.

Specifically on x86-64 with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y some people reported
severe performance regressions in micro-benchmarks because it now also
calls the x86-64 implementation of vmalloc_sync_all() on vunmap().  But
the vmalloc_sync_all() implementation on x86-64 is only needed for newly
created mappings.

To avoid the unnecessary work on x86-64 and to gain the performance
back, split up vmalloc_sync_all() into two functions:

	* vmalloc_sync_mappings(), and
	* vmalloc_sync_unmappings()

Most call-sites to vmalloc_sync_all() only care about new mappings being
synchronized.  The only exception is the new call-site added in the
above mentioned commit.

Shile Zhang directed us to a report of an 80% regression in reaim
throughput.

[ Upstream commit 611d779af7cad2b87487ff58e4931a90c20b113c ]

So far we have the unfortunate situation that mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend()
is called in suspend AND resume path, assuming that function result is
the same. After the original change this is no longer the case,
resulting in broken resume as reported by Geert.

To fix this call mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend() in the suspend path only,
and let the phy_device store the info whether it was suspended by
MDIO bus PM.
