git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6. The most
significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns
drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling.
The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not
allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the
system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only,
no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec
mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing
with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the
last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify
this change works correctly.
The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing
nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the
kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever
with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the
!CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given
that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo
in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be
backported as well.
The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing
/proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This
prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a
user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions
so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line
commits that can be trivially reverted. Unfortunately I lost and
could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not
credited. From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a
refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by
the introduction of the network namespace"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
proc: Point /proc/mounts at /proc/thread-self/mounts instead of /proc/self/mounts

Pull GPIO update from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.17 development cycle, and
this time we got a lot of action going on and it will continue:
- The core GPIO library implementation has been split up in three
different files:
- gpiolib.c for the latest and greatest and shiny GPIO library code
using GPIO descriptors only
- gpiolib-legacy.c for the old integer number space API that we are
phasing out gradually
- gpiolib-sysfs.c for the sysfs interface that we are not entirely
happy with, but has to live on for ABI compatibility
- Add a flags argument to *gpiod_get* functions, with some
backward-compatibility macros to ease transitions. We should have
had the flags there from the beginning it seems, now we need to
clean up the mess. There is a plan on how to move forward here
devised by Alexandre Courbot and Mark Brown
- Split off a special <linux/gpio/machine.h> header for the board
gpio table registration, as per example from the regulator
subsystem
- Start to kill off the return value from gpiochip_remove() by
removing the __must_check attribute and removing all checks inside
the drivers/gpio directory. The rationale is: well what were we
supposed to do if there is an error code? Not much: print an error
message. And gpiolib already does that. So make this function
return void eventually
- Some cleanups of hairy gpiolib code, make some functions not to be
used outside the library private and make sure they are not
exported, remove gpiod_lock/unlock_as_irq() as the existing
function is for driver-internal use and fine as it is, delete
gpio_ensure_requested() as it is not meaningful anymore
- Support the GPIOF_ACTIVE_LOW flag from gpio_request_one() function
calls, which is logical since this is already supported when
referencing GPIOs from e.g. device trees
- Switch STMPE, intel-mid, lynxpoint and ACPI (!) to use the gpiolib
irqchip helpers cutting down on GPIO irqchip boilerplate a bit more
- New driver for the Zynq GPIO block
- The usual incremental improvements around a bunch of drivers
- Janitorial syntactic and semantic cleanups by Jingoo Han, and
Rickard Strandqvist especially"

This is the final piece of the puzzle of verifying kernel image signature
during kexec_file_load() syscall.
This patch calls into PE file routines to verify signature of bzImage. If
signature are valid, kexec_file_load() succeeds otherwise it fails.
Two new config options have been introduced. First one is
CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be
validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not
set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when
secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be
automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen
when secureboot patches are merged.
Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option
enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not
set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel
does not have support to verify signature of bzImage.
I tested these patches with both "pesign" and "sbsign" signed bzImages.
I used signing_key.priv key and signing_key.x509 cert for signing as
generated during kernel build process (if module signing is enabled).
Used following method to sign bzImage.
pesign
======
- Convert DER format cert to PEM format cert
openssl x509 -in signing_key.x509 -inform DER -out signing_key.x509.PEM -outform
PEM
- Generate a .p12 file from existing cert and private key file
openssl pkcs12 -export -out kernel-key.p12 -inkey signing_key.priv -in
signing_key.x509.PEM
- Import .p12 file into pesign db
pk12util -i /tmp/kernel-key.p12 -d /etc/pki/pesign
- Sign bzImage
pesign -i /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ -o /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.pesign
-c "Glacier signing key - Magrathea" -s
sbsign
======
sbsign --key signing_key.priv --cert signing_key.x509.PEM --output
/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.sbsign /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+
Patch details:
Well all the hard work is done in previous patches. Now bzImage loader
has just call into that code and verify whether bzImage signature are
valid or not.
Also create two config options. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG.
This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel
load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will
be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case
signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is
enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged.
Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option
enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not
set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel
does not have support to verify signature of bzImage.

This patch does two things. It passes EFI run time mappings to second
kernel in bootparams efi_info. Second kernel parse this info and create
new mappings in second kernel. That means mappings in first and second
kernel will be same. This paves the way to enable EFI in kexec kernel.
This patch also prepares and passes EFI setup data through bootparams.
This contains bunch of information about various tables and their
addresses.
These information gathering and passing has been written along the lines
of what current kexec-tools is doing to make kexec work with UEFI.

Load purgatory code in RAM and relocate it based on the location.
Relocation code has been inspired by module relocation code and purgatory
relocation code in kexec-tools.
Also compute the checksums of loaded kexec segments and store them in
purgatory.
Arch independent code provides this functionality so that arch dependent
bootloaders can make use of it.
Helper functions are provided to get/set symbol values in purgatory which
are used by bootloaders later to set things like stack and entry point of
second kernel etc.

Previous patch provided the interface definition and this patch prvides
implementation of new syscall.
Previously segment list was prepared in user space. Now user space just
passes kernel fd, initrd fd and command line and kernel will create a
segment list internally.
This patch contains generic part of the code. Actual segment preparation
and loading is done by arch and image specific loader. Which comes in
next patch.

This is the new syscall kexec_file_load() declaration/interface. I have
reserved the syscall number only for x86_64 so far. Other architectures
(including i386) can reserve syscall number when they enable the support
for this new syscall.

So far kexec_segment->buf was always a user space pointer as user space
passed the array of kexec_segment structures and kernel copied it.
But with new system call, list of kexec segments will be prepared by
kernel and kexec_segment->buf will point to a kernel memory.
So while I was adding code where I made assumption that ->buf is pointing
to kernel memory, sparse started giving warning.
Make ->buf a union. And where a user space pointer is expected, access it
using ->buf and where a kernel space pointer is expected, access it using
->kbuf. That takes care of sparse warnings.

I have added two more functions to walk through resources.
Currently walk_system_ram_range() deals with pfn and /proc/iomem can
contain partial pages. By dealing in pfn, callback function loses the
info that last page of a memory range is a partial page and not the full
page. So I implemented walk_system_ram_res() which returns u64 values to
callback functions and now it properly return start and end address.
walk_system_ram_range() uses find_next_system_ram() to find the next ram
resource. This in turn only travels through siblings of top level child
and does not travers through all the nodes of the resoruce tree. I also
need another function where I can walk through all the resources, for
example figure out where "GART" aperture is. Figure out where ACPI memory
is.
So I wrote another function walk_iomem_res() which walks through all
/proc/iomem resources and returns matches as asked by caller. Caller can
specify "name" of resource, start and end and flags.
Got rid of find_next_system_ram_res() and instead implemented more generic
find_next_iomem_res() which can be used to traverse top level children
only based on an argument.

memfd_create() is similar to mmap(MAP_ANON), but returns a file-descriptor
that you can pass to mmap(). It can support sealing and avoids any
connection to user-visible mount-points. Thus, it's not subject to quotas
on mounted file-systems, but can be used like malloc()'ed memory, but with
a file-descriptor to it.
memfd_create() returns the raw shmem file, so calls like ftruncate() can
be used to modify the underlying inode. Also calls like fstat() will
return proper information and mark the file as regular file. If you want
sealing, you can specify MFD_ALLOW_SEALING. Otherwise, sealing is not
supported (like on all other regular files).
Compared to O_TMPFILE, it does not require a tmpfs mount-point and is not
subject to a filesystem size limit. It is still properly accounted to
memcg limits, though, and to the same overcommit or no-overcommit
accounting as all user memory.

If two processes share a common memory region, they usually want some
guarantees to allow safe access. This often includes:
- one side cannot overwrite data while the other reads it
- one side cannot shrink the buffer while the other accesses it
- one side cannot grow the buffer beyond previously set boundaries
If there is a trust-relationship between both parties, there is no need
for policy enforcement. However, if there's no trust relationship (eg.,
for general-purpose IPC) sharing memory-regions is highly fragile and
often not possible without local copies. Look at the following two
use-cases:
1) A graphics client wants to share its rendering-buffer with a
graphics-server. The memory-region is allocated by the client for
read/write access and a second FD is passed to the server. While
scanning out from the memory region, the server has no guarantee that
the client doesn't shrink the buffer at any time, requiring rather
cumbersome SIGBUS handling.
2) A process wants to perform an RPC on another process. To avoid huge
bandwidth consumption, zero-copy is preferred. After a message is
assembled in-memory and a FD is passed to the remote side, both sides
want to be sure that neither modifies this shared copy, anymore. The
source may have put sensible data into the message without a separate
copy and the target may want to parse the message inline, to avoid a
local copy.
While SIGBUS handling, POSIX mandatory locking and MAP_DENYWRITE provide
ways to achieve most of this, the first one is unproportionally ugly to
use in libraries and the latter two are broken/racy or even disabled due
to denial of service attacks.
This patch introduces the concept of SEALING. If you seal a file, a
specific set of operations is blocked on that file forever. Unlike locks,
seals can only be set, never removed. Hence, once you verified a specific
set of seals is set, you're guaranteed that no-one can perform the blocked
operations on this file, anymore.
An initial set of SEALS is introduced by this patch:
- SHRINK: If SEAL_SHRINK is set, the file in question cannot be reduced
in size. This affects ftruncate() and open(O_TRUNC).
- GROW: If SEAL_GROW is set, the file in question cannot be increased
in size. This affects ftruncate(), fallocate() and write().
- WRITE: If SEAL_WRITE is set, no write operations (besides resizing)
are possible. This affects fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE), mmap() and
write().
- SEAL: If SEAL_SEAL is set, no further seals can be added to a file.
This basically prevents the F_ADD_SEAL operation on a file and
can be set to prevent others from adding further seals that you
don't want.
The described use-cases can easily use these seals to provide safe use
without any trust-relationship:
1) The graphics server can verify that a passed file-descriptor has
SEAL_SHRINK set. This allows safe scanout, while the client is
allowed to increase buffer size for window-resizing on-the-fly.
Concurrent writes are explicitly allowed.
2) For general-purpose IPC, both processes can verify that SEAL_SHRINK,
SEAL_GROW and SEAL_WRITE are set. This guarantees that neither
process can modify the data while the other side parses it.
Furthermore, it guarantees that even with writable FDs passed to the
peer, it cannot increase the size to hit memory-limits of the source
process (in case the file-storage is accounted to the source).
The new API is an extension to fcntl(), adding two new commands:
F_GET_SEALS: Return a bitset describing the seals on the file. This
can be called on any FD if the underlying file supports
sealing.
F_ADD_SEALS: Change the seals of a given file. This requires WRITE
access to the file and F_SEAL_SEAL may not already be set.
Furthermore, the underlying file must support sealing and
there may not be any existing shared mapping of that file.
Otherwise, EBADF/EPERM is returned.
The given seals are _added_ to the existing set of seals
on the file. You cannot remove seals again.
The fcntl() handler is currently specific to shmem and disabled on all
files. A file needs to explicitly support sealing for this interface to
work. A separate syscall is added in a follow-up, which creates files that
support sealing. There is no intention to support this on other
file-systems. Semantics are unclear for non-volatile files and we lack any
use-case right now. Therefore, the implementation is specific to shmem.

This patch (of 6):
The i_mmap_writable field counts existing writable mappings of an
address_space. To allow drivers to prevent new writable mappings, make
this counter signed and prevent new writable mappings if it is negative.
This is modelled after i_writecount and DENYWRITE.
This will be required by the shmem-sealing infrastructure to prevent any
new writable mappings after the WRITE seal has been set. In case there
exists a writable mapping, this operation will fail with EBUSY.
Note that we rely on the fact that iff you already own a writable mapping,
you can increase the counter without using the helpers. This is the same
that we do for i_writecount.

The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).
This default is only useful for ia64. arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it. arm, 32-bit UML,
and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.
This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.
This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

This is small set of patches our team has had kicking around for a few
versions internally that fixes tasks getting hung on shm_exit when there
are many threads hammering it at once.
Anton wrote a simple test to cause the issue:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/bust_shm_exit.c
Before applying this patchset, this test code will cause either hanging
tracebacks or pthread out of memory errors.
After this patchset, it will still produce output like:
root@somehost:~# ./bust_shm_exit 1024 160
...
INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: {} (detected by 116, t=2111 jiffies, g=241, c=240, q=7113)
INFO: Stall ended before state dump start
...
But the task will continue to run along happily, so we consider this an
improvement over hanging, even if it's a bit noisy.
This patch (of 3):
exit_shm obtains the ipc_ns shm rwsem for write and holds it while it
walks every shared memory segment in the namespace. Thus the amount of
work is related to the number of shm segments in the namespace not the
number of segments that might need to be cleaned.
In addition, this occurs after the task has been notified the thread has
exited, so the number of tasks waiting for the ns shm rwsem can grow
without bound until memory is exausted.
Add a list to the task struct of all shmids allocated by this task. Init
the list head in copy_process. Use the ns->rwsem for locking. Add
segments after id is added, remove before removing from id.
On unshare of NEW_IPCNS orphan any ids as if the task had exited, similar
to handling of semaphore undo.
I chose a define for the init sequence since its a simple list init,
otherwise it would require a function call to avoid include loops between
the semaphore code and the task struct. Converting the list_del to
list_del_init for the unshare cases would remove the exit followed by
init, but I left it blow up if not inited.

Now with 64bit bzImage and kexec tools, we support ramdisk that size is
bigger than 2g, as we could put it above 4G.
Found compressed initramfs image could not be decompressed properly. It
turns out that image length is int during decompress detection, and it
will become < 0 when length is more than 2G. Furthermore, during
decompressing len as int is used for inbuf count, that has problem too.
Change len to long, that should be ok as on 32 bit platform long is
32bits.

mm initialization on fork/exec is spread all over the place, which makes
the code look inconsistent.
We have mm_init(), which is supposed to init/nullify mm's internals, but
it doesn't init all the fields it should:
- on fork ->mmap,mm_rb,vmacache_seqnum,map_count,mm_cpumask,locked_vm
are zeroed in dup_mmap();
- on fork ->pmd_huge_pte is zeroed in dup_mm(), immediately before
calling mm_init();
- ->cpu_vm_mask_var ptr is initialized by mm_init_cpumask(), which is
called before mm_init() on both fork and exec;
- ->context is initialized by init_new_context(), which is called after
mm_init() on both fork and exec;
Let's consolidate all the initializations in mm_init() to make the code
look cleaner.

The memcg uncharging code that is involved towards the end of a page's
lifetime - truncation, reclaim, swapout, migration - is impressively
complicated and fragile.
Because anonymous and file pages were always charged before they had their
page->mapping established, uncharges had to happen when the page type
could still be known from the context; as in unmap for anonymous, page
cache removal for file and shmem pages, and swap cache truncation for swap
pages. However, these operations happen well before the page is actually
freed, and so a lot of synchronization is necessary:
- Charging, uncharging, page migration, and charge migration all need
to take a per-page bit spinlock as they could race with uncharging.
- Swap cache truncation happens during both swap-in and swap-out, and
possibly repeatedly before the page is actually freed. This means
that the memcg swapout code is called from many contexts that make
no sense and it has to figure out the direction from page state to
make sure memory and memory+swap are always correctly charged.
- On page migration, the old page might be unmapped but then reused,
so memcg code has to prevent untimely uncharging in that case.
Because this code - which should be a simple charge transfer - is so
special-cased, it is not reusable for replace_page_cache().
But now that charged pages always have a page->mapping, introduce
mem_cgroup_uncharge(), which is called after the final put_page(), when we
know for sure that nobody is looking at the page anymore.
For page migration, introduce mem_cgroup_migrate(), which is called after
the migration is successful and the new page is fully rmapped. Because
the old page is no longer uncharged after migration, prevent double
charges by decoupling the page's memcg association (PCG_USED and
pc->mem_cgroup) from the page holding an actual charge. The new bits
PCG_MEM and PCG_MEMSW represent the respective charges and are transferred
to the new page during migration.
mem_cgroup_migrate() is suitable for replace_page_cache() as well,
which gets rid of mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache(). However, care
needs to be taken because both the source and the target page can
already be charged and on the LRU when fuse is splicing: grab the page
lock on the charge moving side to prevent changing pc->mem_cgroup of a
page under migration. Also, the lruvecs of both pages change as we
uncharge the old and charge the new during migration, and putback may
race with us, so grab the lru lock and isolate the pages iff on LRU to
prevent races and ensure the pages are on the right lruvec afterward.
Swap accounting is massively simplified: because the page is no longer
uncharged as early as swap cache deletion, a new mem_cgroup_swapout() can
transfer the page's memory+swap charge (PCG_MEMSW) to the swap entry
before the final put_page() in page reclaim.
Finally, page_cgroup changes are now protected by whatever protection the
page itself offers: anonymous pages are charged under the page table lock,
whereas page cache insertions, swapin, and migration hold the page lock.
Uncharging happens under full exclusion with no outstanding references.
Charging and uncharging also ensure that the page is off-LRU, which
serializes against charge migration. Remove the very costly page_cgroup
lock and set pc->flags non-atomically.

These patches rework memcg charge lifetime to integrate more naturally
with the lifetime of user pages. This drastically simplifies the code and
reduces charging and uncharging overhead. The most expensive part of
charging and uncharging is the page_cgroup bit spinlock, which is removed
entirely after this series.
Here are the top-10 profile entries of a stress test that reads a 128G
sparse file on a freshly booted box, without even a dedicated cgroup (i.e.
executing in the root memcg). Before:
15.36% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] copy_user_generic_string
13.31% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memset
11.48% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_mpage_readpage
4.23% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] get_page_from_freelist

13.48% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memset
11.42% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_mpage_readpage

1.39% kswapd0 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] free_pcppages_bulk
1.30% cat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] kfree
As you can see, the memcg footprint has shrunk quite a bit.

This patch (of 4):
The memcg charge API charges pages before they are rmapped - i.e. have an
actual "type" - and so every callsite needs its own set of charge and
uncharge functions to know what type is being operated on. Worse,
uncharge has to happen from a context that is still type-specific, rather
than at the end of the page's lifetime with exclusive access, and so
requires a lot of synchronization.
Rewrite the charge API to provide a generic set of try_charge(),
commit_charge() and cancel_charge() transaction operations, much like
what's currently done for swap-in:
mem_cgroup_try_charge() attempts to reserve a charge, reclaiming
pages from the memcg if necessary.
mem_cgroup_commit_charge() commits the page to the charge once it
has a valid page->mapping and PageAnon() reliably tells the type.
mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() aborts the transaction.
This reduces the charge API and enables subsequent patches to
drastically simplify uncharging.
As pages need to be committed after rmap is established but before they
are added to the LRU, page_add_new_anon_rmap() must stop doing LRU
additions again. Revive lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
"A handful of driver-related changes. We've had a bunch of them going
in through other branches as well, so it's only a part of what we
really have this release.
Larger pieces are:
- Removal of a now unused PWM driver for atmel
[ This includes AVR32 changes that have been appropriately acked ]
- Performance counter support for the arm CCN interconnect
- OMAP mailbox driver cleanups and consolidation
- PCI and SATA PHY drivers for SPEAr 13xx platforms
- Redefinition (with backwards compatibility!) of PCI DT bindings for
Tegra to better model regulators/power"
Note: this merge also fixes up the semantic conflict with the new
calling convention for devm_phy_create(), see commit f0ed817638b5 ("phy:

"This merge window brings a good size of cleanups on various platforms.
Among the bigger ones:
- Removal of Samsung s5pc100 and s5p64xx platforms. Both of these
have lacked active support for quite a while, and after asking
around nobody showed interest in keeping them around. If needed,
they could be resurrected in the future but it's more likely that
we would prefer reintroduction of them as DT and
multiplatform-enabled platforms instead.
- OMAP4 controller code register define diet. They defined a lot of
registers that were never actually used, etc.
- Move of some of the Tegra platform code (PMC, APBIO, fuse,
powergate) to drivers/soc so it can be shared with 64-bit code.
This also converts them over to traditional driver models where
possible.
- Removal of legacy gpio-samsung driver, since the last users have
been removed (moved to pinctrl)

dissapear in the diffstat for the above. clps711x cleanups, shmobile

Pull second round of KVM changes from Paolo Bonzini:
"Here are the PPC and ARM changes for KVM, which I separated because

- Book3S HV: Add in-guest debug support

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"This is the powerpc new goodies for 3.17. The short story:
The biggest bit is Michael removing all of pre-POWER4 processor
support from the 64-bit kernel. POWER3 and rs64. This gets rid of a
ton of old cruft that has been bitrotting in a long while. It was
broken for quite a few versions already and nobody noticed. Nobody
uses those machines anymore. While at it, he cleaned up a bunch of
old dusty cabinets, getting rid of a skeletton or two.
Then, we have some base VFIO support for KVM, which allows assigning
of PCI devices to KVM guests, support for large 64-bit BARs on
"powernv" platforms, support for HMI (Hardware Management Interrupts)
on those same platforms, some sparse-vmemmap improvements (for memory
hotplug),
There is the usual batch of Freescale embedded updates (summary in the
merge commit) and fixes here or there, I think that's it for the
highlights"
