When the crash kernel is loaded above 4GiB in memory, the
first kernel allocates only 72MiB of low-memory for the DMA
requirements of the second kernel. On systems with many
devices this is not enough and causes device driver
initialization errors and failed crash dumps. Testing by
SUSE and Redhat has shown that 256MiB is a good default
value for now and the discussion has lead to this value as
well. So set this default value to 256MiB to make sure there
is enough memory available for DMA.

When we boot a kdump kernel in high memory, there is by
default only 72MB of low memory available. The swiotlb code
takes 64MB of it (by default) so that there are only 8MB
left to allocate from. On systems with many devices this
causes page allocator warnings from
dma_generic_alloc_coherent():

Print a warning when all allocation tries have been failed
and the function is about to return NULL.
This prepares for calling the function with __GFP_NOWARN to
suppress allocation failure warnings before all fall-backs
have failed - which we'll do to improve kdump behavior.

Since the addition of sysfs multicast router support if one set
multicast_router to "2" more than once, then the port would be added to
the hlist every time and could end up linking to itself and thus causing an
endless loop for rlist walkers.
So to reproduce just do:
echo 2 > multicast_router; echo 2 > multicast_router;
in a bridge port and let some igmp traffic flow, for me it hangs up
in br_multicast_flood().
Fix this by adding a check in br_multicast_add_router() if the port is
already linked.
The reason this didn't happen before the addition of multicast_router
sysfs entries is because there's a !hlist_unhashed check that prevents
it.

If the TIPC connection timer expires in a probing state, a
self abort message is supposed to be generated and delivered
to the local socket. This is currently broken, and the abort
message is actually sent out to the peer node with invalid
addressing information. This will cause the link to enter
a constant retransmission state and eventually reset.
We fix this by removing the self-abort message creation and
tear down connection immediately instead.

Currently snd-hda-intel driver aborts the probing of Intel HD-audio
controller with i915 power well management when binding with i915
driver via hda_i915_init() fails. This is no big problem for Haswell
and Broadwell where the HD-audio controllers are dedicated to
HDMI/DP, thus i915 link is mandatory. However, Skylake, Baytrail and
Braswell have only one controller and both HDMI/DP and analog codecs
share the same bus. Thus, even if HDMI/DP isn't usable, we should
keep the controller working for other codecs.
For fixing this, this patch simply allows continuing the probing even
if hda_i915_init() call fails. This may leave stale sound components
for HDMI/DP devices that are unbound with graphics. We could abort
the probing selectively, but from the code simplicity POV, it's better
to continue in all cases.

Compound pages cannot be migrated and it was not expected that such pages
be marked for NUMA balancing. This did not take into account that drivers
such as net/packet/af_packet.c may insert compound pages into userspace
with vm_insert_page. This patch tells the NUMA balancing protection
scanner to skip all VM_MIXEDMAP mappings which avoids the possibility that
compound pages are marked for migration.

On -rt, the VM_BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()) triggers inside the memcg
swapout path because the spin_lock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock) in the
caller doesn't actually disable the hardware interrupts - which is fine,
because on -rt the tophalves run in process context and so we are still
safe from preemption while updating the statistics.
Remove the VM_BUG_ON() but keep the comment of what we rely on.

Reproduce method (re-add a node)::
Hot-add nodeA --> remove nodeA --> hot-add nodeA (panic)
This seems an use-after-free problem, and the root cause is
zone->wait_table was not set to *NULL* after free it in
try_offline_node.
When hot re-add a node, we will reuse the pgdat of it, so does the zone
struct, and when add pages to the target zone, it will init the zone
first (including the wait_table) if the zone is not initialized. The
judgement of zone initialized is based on zone->wait_table:
static inline bool zone_is_initialized(struct zone *zone)
{
return !!zone->wait_table;
}
so if we do not set the zone->wait_table to *NULL* after free it, the
memory hotplug routine will skip the init of new zone when hot re-add
the node, and the wait_table still points to the freed memory, then we
will access the invalid address when trying to wake up the waiting
people after the i/o operation with the page is done, such as mentioned
above.

Use unique temporary files when copying to buildid dir to prevent races
in case multiple instances are trying to copy same file. This is done by
- creating template in form <path>/.<filename>.XXXXXX where the suffix is
used by mkstemp() to create unique file
- change file mode
- copy content
- if successful link temp file to target file
- unlink temp file
At this point the only file left at target path should be the desired
one either created by us or other instance if we raced. This should also
prevent not yet fully copied files to be visible to to other perf
instances that could try to parse them.
On top of that slow_copyfile no longer needs to deal with file mode when
creating file since temporary file is already created and mode is set.
Succesfully tested by myself by running perf record, archive and reading
the data on other system and by running perf buildid-cache on perf
binary itself. I also did revert fix from 0635b0f that to exposes
previously fixed race with EEXIST and recreator test passed sucessfully.

Along with the transition to regmap for managing the cached parameter
reads, the caps overwrite was also moved to regmap cache. The cache
change itself works, but it still tries to write the non-existing verb
(the HDA parameter is read-only) wrongly. It's harmless in most
cases, but some chips are picky and may result in the codec
communication stall.
This patch avoids it just by adding the missing flag check in
reg_write ops.

The error_entry/error_exit code to handle gsbase and whether we
return to user mdoe was a mess:
- error_sti was misnamed. In particular, it did not enable interrupts.
- Error handling for gs_change was hopelessly tangled the normal
usermode path. Separate it out. This saves a branch in normal
entries from kernel mode.
- The comments were bad.
Fix it up. As a nice side effect, there's now a code path that
happens on error entries from user mode. We'll use it soon.

Here it is not obvious why we load pt_regs->cx to %esi etc.
Lets improve comments.
Explain that here we combine two things: first, we reload
registers since some of them are clobbered by the C function we
just called; and we also convert 32-bit syscall params to 64-bit
C ABI, because we are going to jump back to syscall dispatch
code.
Move reloading of 6th argument into the macro instead of having
it after each of two macro invocations.
No actual code changes here.

Until recently, mac80211 overwrote all the statistics it could
provide when getting called, but it now relies on the struct
having been zeroed by the caller. This was always the case in
nl80211, but wext used a static struct which could even cause
values from one device leak to another.
Using a static struct is OK (as even documented in a comment)
since the whole usage of this function and its return value is
always locked under RTNL. Not clearing the struct for calling
the driver has always been wrong though, since drivers were
free to only fill values they could report, so calling this
for one device and then for another would always have leaked
values from one to the other.
Fix this by initializing the structure in question before the
driver method call.

The comment pretty much says it all.
I wrote a test program that does lots of random allocations
and forces bounds tables to be created. It came up with a
layout like this:
.... | BOUNDS DIRECTORY ENTRY COVERS | ....
| BOUNDS TABLE COVERS |
| BOUNDS TABLE | REAL ALLOC | BOUNDS TABLE |
Unmapping "REAL ALLOC" should have been able to free the
bounds table "covering" the "REAL ALLOC" because it was the
last real user. But, the neighboring VMA bounds tables were
found, considered as real neighbors, and we declined to free
the bounds table covering the area.
Doing this over and over left a small but significant number
of these orphans. Handling them is fairly straighforward.
All we have to do is walk the VMAs and skip all of the MPX
ones when looking for neighbors.

The MPX code needs to clear out bounds tables for memory which
is no longer in use. We do this when a userspace mapping is
torn down (unmapped).
There are two modes:
1. An entire bounds table becomes unused, and can be freed
and its pointer removed from the bounds directory. This
happens either when a large mapping is torn down, or when
a small mapping is torn down and it is the last mapping
"covered" by a bounds table.
2. Only part of a bounds table becomes unused, in which case
we free the backing memory as if MADV_DONTNEED was called.
The old code was a spaghetti mess of "edge" bounds tables
where the edges were handled specially, even if we were
unmapping an entire one. Non-edge bounds tables are always
fully unmapped, but share a different code path from the edge
ones. The old code had a bug where it was unmapping too much
memory. I worked on fixing it for two days and gave up.
I didn't write the original code. I didn't particularly like
it, but it worked, so I left it. After my debug session, I
realized it was undebuggagle *and* buggy, so out it went.
I also wrote a new unmapping test program which uncovers bugs
pretty nicely.

Right now, the kernel can only switch between 64-bit and 32-bit
binaries at compile time. This patch adds support for 32-bit
binaries on 64-bit kernels when we support ia32 emulation.
We essentially choose which set of table sizes to use when doing
arithmetic for the bounds table calculations.
This also uses a different approach for calculating the table
indexes than before. I think the new one makes it much more
clear what is going on, and allows us to share more code between
the 32-bit and 64-bit cases.

user_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() actually looks at sizeof(*ptr) to
figure out how many bytes to copy. If we run it on a 64-bit
kernel with a 64-bit pointer, it will copy a 64-bit bounds
directory entry. That's fine, except when we have 32-bit
programs with 32-bit bounds directory entries and we only *want*
32-bits.
This patch breaks the cmpxchg() operation out in to its own
function and performs the 32-bit type swizzling in there.
Note, the "64-bit" version of this code _would_ work on a
32-bit-only kernel. The issue this patch addresses is only for
when the kernel's 'long' is mismatched from the size of the
bounds directory entry of the process we are working on.
The new helper modifies 'actual_old_val' or returns an error.
But gcc doesn't know this, so it warns about 'actual_old_val'
being unused. Shut it up with an uninitialized_var().

Currently, to get from a bounds directory entry to the virtual
address of a bounds table, we simply mask off a few low bits.
However, the set of bits we mask off is different for 32-bit and
64-bit binaries.
This breaks the operation out in to a helper function and also
adds a temporary variable to store the result until we are
sure we are returning one.

When we allocate a bounds table, we call mmap(), then add a
"valid" bit to the value before storing it in to the bounds
directory.
If we fail along the way, we go and mask that valid bit
_back_ out. That seems a little silly, and this makes it
much more clear when we have a plain address versus an
actual table _entry_.

The uprobes code has a nice helper, is_64bit_mm(), that consults
both the runtime and compile-time flags for 32-bit support.
Instead of reinventing the wheel, pull it in to an x86 header so
we can use it for MPX.
I prefer passing the 'mm' around to test_thread_flag(TIF_IA32)
because it makes it explicit where the context is coming from.

point to trace whenever an allocation occurs and also its
virtual address.

There are two different events being traced here. They are
doing similar things so share a trace "EVENT_CLASS" and are
presented together.
1. Trace when MPX is zapping pages "mpx_unmap_zap":
When MPX can not free an entire bounds table, it will
instead try to zap unused parts of a bounds table to free
the backing memory. This decreases RSS (resident set
size) without decreasing the virtual space allocated
for bounds tables.
2. Trace attempts to find bounds tables "mpx_unmap_search":
This event traces any time we go looking to unmap a
bounds table for a given virtual address range. This is
useful to ensure that the kernel actually "tried" to free
a bounds table versus times it succeeded in finding one.
It might try and fail if it realized that a table was
shared with an adjacent VMA which is not being unmapped.

There are two basic things that can happen as the result of
a bounds exception (#BR):
1. We allocate a new bounds table
2. We pass up a bounds exception to userspace.
This patch adds a trace point for the case where we are
passing the exception up to userspace with a signal.
We are also explicit that we're printing out the inverse of
the 'upper' that we encounter. If you want to filter, for
instance, you need to ~ the value first. The reason we do
this is because of how 'upper' is stored in the bounds table.
If a pointer's range is:
0x1000 -> 0x2000
it is stored in the bounds table as (32-bits here for brevity):
lower: 0x00001000
upper: 0xffffdfff
That is so that an all 0's entry:
lower: 0x00000000
upper: 0x00000000
corresponds to the "init" bounds which store a *range* of:
0x00000000 -> 0xffffffff
That is, by far, the common case, and that lets us use the
zero page, or deduplicate the memory, etc... The 'upper'
stored in the table is gibberish to print by itself, so we
print ~upper to get the *actual*, logical, human-readable
value printed out.

This is the first in a series of MPX tracing patches.
I've found these extremely useful in the process of
debugging applications and the kernel code itself.
This exception hooks in to the bounds (#BR) exception
very early and allows capturing the key registers which
would influence how the exception is handled.
Note that bndcfgu/bndstatus are technically still
64-bit registers even in 32-bit mode.
