When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".
We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.
This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There are a couple of new things for s390 with this merge request:
- a new scheduling domain "drawer" is added to reflect the unusual
topology found on z13 machines. Performance tests showed up to 8
percent gain with the additional domain.
- the new crc-32 checksum crypto module uses the vector-galois-field
multiply and sum SIMD instruction to speed up crc-32 and crc-32c.
- proper __ro_after_init support, this requires RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA in
the generic vmlinux.lds linker script definitions.
- kcov instrumentation support. A prerequisite for that is the
inline assembly basic block cleanup, which is the reason for the
net/iucv/iucv.c change.
- support for 2GB pages is added to the hugetlbfs backend.
Then there are two removals:
- the oprofile hardware sampling support is dead code and is removed.
The oprofile user space uses the perf interface nowadays.
- the ETR clock synchronization is removed, this has been superseeded
be the STP clock synchronization. And it always has been
"interesting" code..
And the usual bug fixes and cleanups"

If CONFIG_KASAN is enabled and gcc is configured with
--disable-initfini-array and/or gold linker is used, gcc emits
.ctors/.dtors and .text.startup/.text.exit sections instead of
.init_array/.fini_array. .dtors section is not explicitly accounted in
the linker script and messes vvar/percpu layout.
We want:
ffffffff822bfd80 D _edata
ffffffff822c0000 D __vvar_beginning_hack
ffffffff822c0000 A __vvar_page
ffffffff822c0080 0000000000000098 D vsyscall_gtod_data
ffffffff822c1000 A __init_begin
ffffffff822c1000 D init_per_cpu__irq_stack_union
ffffffff822c1000 A __per_cpu_load
ffffffff822d3000 D init_per_cpu__gdt_page
We got:
ffffffff8279a600 D _edata
ffffffff8279b000 A __vvar_page
ffffffff8279c000 A __init_begin
ffffffff8279c000 D init_per_cpu__irq_stack_union
ffffffff8279c000 A __per_cpu_load
ffffffff8279e000 D __vvar_beginning_hack
ffffffff8279e080 0000000000000098 D vsyscall_gtod_data
ffffffff827ae000 D init_per_cpu__gdt_page
This happens because __vvar_page and .vvar get different addresses in
arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S:
. = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE);
__vvar_page = .;
.vvar : AT(ADDR(.vvar) - LOAD_OFFSET) {
/* work around gold bug 13023 */
__vvar_beginning_hack = .;
Discard .dtors/.fini_array/.text.exit, since we don't call dtors.
Merge .text.startup into init text.

commit c74ba8b3480d ("arch: Introduce post-init read-only memory")
introduced the __ro_after_init attribute which allows to add variables
to the ro_after_init data section.
This new section was added to rodata, even though it contains writable
data. This in turn causes problems on architectures which mark the
page table entries read-only that point to rodata very early.
This patch allows architectures to implement an own handling of the
.data..ro_after_init section.
Usually that would be:
- mark the rodata section read-only very early
- mark the ro_after_init section read-only within mark_rodata_ro

04633df0c43d ("x86/cpu: Call verify_cpu() after having entered long mode too")
added the call to verify_cpu() for sanitizing CPU configuration.
The latter uses the stack minimally and it can happen that we land in
startup_64() directly from a 64-bit bootloader. Then we want to use our
own, known good stack.
Do that.
APs don't need this as the trampoline sets up a stack for them.

KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler.
This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the
number of unique stack traces needed to be stored.
Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the
users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>. Also introduce the
__softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the
corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

One of the easiest ways to protect the kernel from attack is to reduce
the internal attack surface exposed when a "write" flaw is available. By
making as much of the kernel read-only as possible, we reduce the
attack surface.
Many things are written to only during __init, and never changed
again. These cannot be made "const" since the compiler will do the wrong
thing (we do actually need to write to them). Instead, move these items
into a memory region that will be made read-only during mark_rodata_ro()
which happens after all kernel __init code has finished.
This introduces __ro_after_init as a way to mark such memory, and adds
some documentation about the existing __read_mostly marking.
This improves the security of the Linux kernel by marking formerly
read-write memory regions as read-only on a fully booted up system.
Based on work by PaX Team and Brad Spengler.

Use a single common table of struct earlycon_id for both command line
and devicetree. Re-define OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE() macro to instance a
unique earlycon declaration (the declaration is only guaranteed to be
unique within a compilation unit; separate compilation units must still
use unique earlycon names).
The semantics of OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE() is different; it declares an
earlycon which can matched either on the command line or by devicetree.
EARLYCON_DECLARE() is semantically unchanged; it declares an earlycon
which is matched by command line only. Remove redundant instances of
EARLYCON_DECLARE().
This enables all earlycons to properly initialize struct console
with the appropriate name and index, which improves diagnostics and
enables direct earlycon-to-console handoff.

IRQ controllers and timers are the two types of device the kernel
requires before being able to use the device driver model.
ACPI so far lacks a proper probing infrastructure similar to the one
we have with DT, where we're able to declare IRQ chips and
clocksources inside the driver code, and let the core code pick it up
and call us back on a match. This leads to all kind of really ugly
hacks all over the arm64 code and even in the ACPI layer.
In order to allow some basic probing based on the ACPI tables,
introduce "struct acpi_probe_entry" which contains just enough
data and callbacks to match a table, an optional subtable, and
call a probe function. A driver can, at build time, register itself
and expect being called if the right entry exists in the ACPI
table.
A acpi_probe_device_table() is provided, taking an identifier for
a set of acpi_prove_entries, and iterating over the registered
entries.

When building a kernel with .text.unlikely text the unlikely text for
each translation unit was put next to the main .text code in the
final vmlinux.
The problem is that the linker doesn't allow more specific submatches
of a section name in a different linker script statement after the
main match.
So we need to move them all into one line. With that change
.text.unlikely is at the end of everything again.
I also moved .text.hot into the same statement though, even though
that's not strictly needed.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in this update are both some long term fixes and some new
features.
Fixes:
- An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE.
- Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations
- SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation
primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being
visible on SMP builds.
- A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code,
where it corrupts registers. Found by folk getting Linux running
on their cameras.
- Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU
hot-unplug to work.
Features:
- Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations
separately from relocation cases we don't handle.
- Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we
hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the
existing broken interface.)
- Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU.
- Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP.
- Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties.
- Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical
memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the
mask and the implications of changing it.
- Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large
kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link.
- Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to
have never worked in the past on these CPUs.
- Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output
format (hopefully without userspace breaking... let's hope that if
it causes someone a problem, they tell us.)
- Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets.
- Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/
flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this
errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs. This complements
the Versatile Express fix above.
- Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8
CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this
errata is enabled. Also update the help text to indicate that all
r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted.
- Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all
the information which we were already reporting.
- Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running
at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay()
to return immediately, without any wait. Using such a slow timer
is silly.
- VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the
ARM architected timer.
- Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units"

The compiler and the linker must agree on the alignment of
struct earlycon_id; empirical testing and commit 07fca0e57fca92

Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.
For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.
With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:
By adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })
The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

This introduces a new .text.fixup input section that gets emitted
together with the .text section for each input object file.
Note that
*(.text)
*(.text.fixup)
is not the same as
*(.text .text.fixup)
and we are looking for the latter, to ensure that fixup snippets that
are assembled into a separate section in the object file do not end
up out of range for the relative branch instructions it contains if
the .text section itself grows very large.
This helps prevent linker failures on large ARM kernels.

Earlycon matching can only be triggered if 'earlycon=...' has been
specified on the kernel command line. To workaround this limitation
requires tight coupling between arches and specific serial drivers
in order to start an earlycon. Devicetree avoids this limitation
with a link table that contains the required data to match earlycons.
Mirror this approach for earlycon match by name. Re-purpose
EARLYCON_DECLARE to generate a table entry which associates name with
setup() function. Re-purpose setup_earlycon() to scan this table for
an earlycon match, which is registered if found.
Declare one "earlycon" early_param, which calls setup_earlycon().
This design allows setup_earlycon() to be called directly with a
param string (as if 'earlycon=...' had been set on the command line).
Re-registration (either directly or by early_param) is prevented.

The current state of the different cpuidle drivers is the different PM
operations are passed via the platform_data using the platform driver
paradigm.
This approach allowed to split the low level PM code from the arch specific
and the generic cpuidle code.
Unfortunately there are complaints about this approach as, in the context of the
single kernel image, we have multiple drivers loaded in memory for nothing and
the platform driver is not adequate for cpuidle.
This patch provides a common interface via cpuidle ops for all new cpuidle
driver and a definition for the device tree.
It will allow with the next patches to a have a common definition with ARM64
and share the same cpuidle driver.
The code is optimized to use the __init section intensively in order to reduce
the memory footprint after the driver is initialized and unify the function
names with ARM64.

KASan uses constructors for initializing redzones for global variables.
Globals instrumentation in GCC 4.9.2 produces constructors with priority
(.init_array.00099)
Currently kernel ignores such constructors. Only constructors with
default priority supported (.init_array)
This patch adds support for constructors with priorities. For kernel
image we put pointers to constructors between __ctors_start/__ctors_end
and do_ctors() will call them on start up. For modules we merge
.init_array.* sections into resulting .init_array. Module code properly
handles constructors in .init_array section.

IOMMU drivers must be initialised before any of their upstream devices,
otherwise the relevant iommu_ops won't be configured for the bus in
question. To solve this, a number of IOMMU drivers use initcalls to
initialise the driver before anything has a chance to be probed.
Whilst this solves the immediate problem, it leaves the job of probing
the IOMMU completely separate from the iommu_ops to configure the IOMMU,
which are called on a per-bus basis and require the driver to figure out
exactly which instance of the IOMMU is being requested. In particular,
the add_device callback simply passes a struct device to the driver,
which then has to parse firmware tables or probe buses to identify the
relevant IOMMU instance.
This patch takes the first step in addressing this problem by adding an
early initialisation pass for IOMMU drivers, giving them the ability to
store some per-instance data in their iommu_ops structure and store that
in their of_node. This can later be used when parsing OF masters to
identify the IOMMU instance in question.

This fixes a typo that named the read_mostly section of percpu as
readmostly. It works fine with SMP because the linker script specifies
.data..percpu..readmostly. However, UP kernel builds don't have percpu
sections defined and the non-percpu version of the section is called
data..read_mostly, so .data..readmostly will float around and may break
things unexpectedly.
Looking at the original change that introduced data..percpu..readmostly
(commit c957ef2c59e952803766ddc22e89981ab534606f), it looks like this
was the original intention.
Tested: Built UP kernel and confirmed the sections got merged.
- Before the patch:
$ objdump -h vmlinux.o | grep '\.data\.\.read.*mostly'
38 .data..read_mostly 00004418 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00431ac0 2**6

ARC Linux (not supporting native unaligned access) was failing
to boot because __start_kprobe_blacklist was not aligned.
This was because per generated vmlinux.lds it was emitted right
next to .rodata with strings etc hence could be randomly
unaligned.
Fix that by ensuring a word alignment. While 4 would suffice for
32bit arches and problem at hand, it is probably better to put 8.

Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro which builds a kprobes
blacklist at kernel build time.
The usage of this macro is similar to EXPORT_SYMBOL(),
placed after the function definition:
NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(function);
Since this macro will inhibit inlining of static/inline
functions, this patch also introduces a nokprobe_inline macro
for static/inline functions. In this case, we must use
NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() for the inline function caller.
When CONFIG_KPROBES=y, the macro stores the given function
address in the "_kprobe_blacklist" section.
Since the data structures are not fully initialized by the
macro (because there is no "size" information), those
are re-initialized at boot time by using kallsyms.

The goal of multi-platform kernels is to remove the need for mach
directories and machine descriptors. To further that goal,
introduce CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() to allow cpu hotplug/smp
support to be separated from the machine descriptors.
Implementers should specify an enable-method property in their
cpus node and then implement a matching set of smp_ops in their
hotplug/smp code, wiring it up with the CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE()
macro. When the kernel is compiled we'll collect all the
enable-method smp_ops into one section for use at boot.
At boot time we'll look for an enable-method in each cpu node and
try to match that against all known CPU enable methods in the
kernel. If there are no enable-methods in the cpu nodes we
fallback to the cpus node and try to use any enable-method found
there. If that doesn't work we fall back to the old way of using
the machine descriptor.

There are several tracepoints (mostly in RCU), that reference a string
pointer and uses the print format of "%s" to display the string that
exists in the kernel, instead of copying the actual string to the
ring buffer (saves time and ring buffer space).
But this has an issue with userspace tools that read the binary buffers
that has the address of the string but has no access to what the string
itself is. The end result is just output that looks like:
rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeaa 1 0
rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
rcu_utilization: ffffffff8184333b
rcu_utilization: ffffffff8184333b
The above is pretty useless when read by the userspace tools. Ideally
we would want something that looks like this:
rcu_dyntick: Start 1 0
rcu_dyntick: End 0 140000000000000
rcu_dyntick: Start 140000000000000 0
rcu_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880037aff710 func=put_cred_rcu 0/4
rcu_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880078961980 func=file_free_rcu 0/5
rcu_dyntick: End 0 1
The trace_printk() which also only stores the address of the string
format instead of recording the string into the buffer itself, exports
the mapping of kernel addresses to format strings via the printk_format
file in the debugfs tracing directory.
The tracepoint strings can use this same method and output the format
to the same file and the userspace tools will be able to decipher
the address without any modification.
The tracepoint strings need its own section to save the strings because
the trace_printk section will cause the trace_printk() buffers to be
allocated if anything exists within the section. trace_printk() is only
used for debugging and should never exist in the kernel, we can not use
the trace_printk sections.
Add a new tracepoint_str section that will also be examined by the output
of the printk_format file.

Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable
kernel modules.
This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch
drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method. To simplify
registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces
rio_switch_ops data structure. The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from
the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its
functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines.
If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem
core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch.
Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method
relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management,
switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO
enumeration/discovery starts.
This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery
module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations
accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

Ever since commit 45f035ab9b8f ("CONFIG_HOTPLUG should be always on"),
it has been basically impossible to build a kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG
turned off. Remove all the remaining references to it.

We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string
"_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and
SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to
do so.
Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to
prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are
defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set:
1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym)
3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7)
5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym)
6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version
for pasting.
(arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too).
Let's solve this properly:
1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm.
3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().
4) Make everyone use them.

Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Arnd Bergmann:
"A large number of cleanups, all over the platforms. This is dominated
largely by the Samsung platforms (s3c, s5p, exynos) and a few of the
others moving code out of arch/arm into more appropriate subsystems.
The clocksource and irqchip drivers are now abstracted to the point
where platforms that are already cleaned up do not need to even
specify the driver they use, it can all get configured from the device
tree as we do for normal device drivers. The clocksource changes
basically touch every single platform in the process.
We further clean up the use of platform specific header files here,
with the goal of turning more of the platforms over to being
"multiplatform" enabled, which implies that they cannot expose their
headers to architecture independent code any more.
It is expected that no functional changes are part of the cleanup.
The overall reduction in total code lines is mostly the result of
removing broken and obsolete code."

Initial irqchip init infrastructure and GIC and VIC clean-ups
This creates irqchip initialization infrastructure from Thomas
Petazzoni. The VIC and GIC irqchip code is moved to drivers/irqchips
and adapted to use the new infrastructure. All DT enabled platforms
using GIC and VIC are converted over to use the new irqchip_init.

With the recent creation of the drivers/irqchip/ directory, it is
desirable to move irq controller drivers here. At the moment, the only
driver here is irq-bcm2835, the driver for the irq controller found in
the ARM BCM2835 SoC, present in Rasberry Pi systems. This irq
controller driver was exporting its initialization function and its
irq handling function through a header file in
<linux/irqchip/bcm2835.h>.
When proposing to also move another irq controller driver in
drivers/irqchip, Rob Herring raised the very valid point that moving
things to drivers/irqchip was good in order to remove more stuff from
arch/arm, but if it means adding gazillions of headers files in
include/linux/irqchip/, it would not be very nice.
So, upon the suggestion of Rob Herring and Arnd Bergmann, this commit
introduces a small infrastructure that defines a central
irqchip_init() function in drivers/irqchip/irqchip.c, which is meant
to be called as the ->init_irq() callback of ARM platforms. This
function calls of_irq_init() with an array of match strings and init
functions generated from a special linker section.
Note that the irq controller driver initialization function is
responsible for setting the global handle_arch_irq() variable, so that
ARM platforms no longer have to define the ->handle_irq field in their
DT_MACHINE structure.
A global header, <linux/irqchip.h> is also added to expose the single
irqchip_init() function to the reset of the kernel.
A further commit moves the BCM2835 irq controller driver to this new
small infrastructure, therefore removing the include/linux/irqchip/
directory.
