commit 0db282ba2c12c1515d490d14a1ff696643ab0f1b upstream.

This test passes pointers obtained from anon_allocate_area to the
userfaultfd and mremap APIs.  This causes a problem if the system
allocator returns tagged pointers because with the tagged address ABI
the kernel rejects tagged addresses passed to these APIs, which would
end up causing the test to fail.  To make this test compatible with such
system allocators, stop using the system allocator to allocate memory in
anon_allocate_area, and instead just use mmap.

[ Upstream commit a4d7537789724985cafbc9260a31ca4f2b7cf123 ]

When vm test is skipped because of unmet dependencies and/or unsupported
configuration, it exits with error which is treated as a fail by the
Kselftest framework. This leads to false negative result even when the
test could not be run.

Change it to return kselftest skip code when a test gets skipped to
clearly report that the test could not be run.

Kselftest framework SKIP code is 4 and the framework prints appropriate
messages to indicate that the test is skipped.

[ Upstream commit 0627be7d3c871035364923559543c9b2ff5357f2 ]

Fix userfaultfd_hugetlb on hosts which have more than 64 cpus.

  ---------------------------
  running userfaultfd_hugetlb
  ---------------------------
  invalid MiB
  Usage: &lt;MiB&gt; &lt;bounces&gt;

Via userfaultfd.c we can know, hugetlb_size needs to meet hugetlb_size
&gt;= nr_cpus * hugepage_size.  hugepage_size is often 2M, so when host
cpus &gt; 64, it requires more than 128M.

commit 4c1baad223906943b595a887305f2e8124821dad upstream.

Running the compaction_test sometimes results in out-of-memory
failures. When I debugged this, it turned out that the code to
reset the number of hugepages to the initial value is simply
broken since we write into an open sysctl file descriptor
multiple times without seeking back to the start.

Adding the lseek here fixes the problem.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

<content type='text'>
I was stress testing some backports and with high load, after some time,
the latest version of the selftest showed some false positive in
connection with the uffdio_copy_retry.  This seems to fix it while still
exercising -EEXIST in the background transfer once in a while.

The fork child will quit after the last UFFDIO_COPY is run, so a
repeated UFFDIO_COPY may not return -EEXIST.  This change restricts the
-EEXIST stress to the background transfer where the memory can't go away
from under it.

Also updated uffdio_zeropage, so the interface is consistent.

<content type='text'>
This will retry the UFFDIO_COPY/ZEROPAGE to verify it returns -EEXIST at
the first invocation and then later every 10 seconds.

In the filebacked MAP_SHARED case this also verifies the -EEXIST
triggered in the filesystem pagecache insertion, if the offset in the
file was not a hole.

shmem MAP_SHARED tries to index the newly allocated pagecache in the
radix tree before checking the pagetable so it doesn't need any
assistance to exercise that case.

hugetlbfs checks the pmd to be not none before trying to index the
hugetlbfs page in the radix tree, so it requires to run UFFDIO_COPY into
an alias mapping (the alternative would be to use MADV_DONTNEED to only
zap the pagetables, but that doesn't work on hugetlbfs).

Add tests for UFFD_FEATURE_SIGBUS feature.  The tests will verify signal
delivery instead of userfault events.  Also, test use of UFFDIO_COPY to
