Userspace should always be in charge of how to online memory and if memory
should be onlined automatically in the kernel. Let's drop the parameter
to overwrite this - XEN passes memhp_auto_online, just like add_memory(),
so we can directly use that instead internally.

__memblock_free_early() is only used by the convenience wrappers, so
essentially we wrap a call to memblock_free() twice. Replace calls of
__memblock_free_early() with calls to memblock_free() and drop the former.

devm semantics arrange for resources to be torn down when
device-driver-probe fails or when device-driver-release completes.
Similar to devm_memremap_pages() there is no need to support an explicit
remove operation when the users properly adhere to devm semantics.
Note that devm_kzalloc() automatically handles allocating node-local
memory.

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate
a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup
down. However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked.
Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough. The api
currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by
the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run. Rather than continue
this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the
percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly. This allows
devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and
shutdown.
Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of
devm_memremap_pages(). The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as
small memory allocations almost always succeed. However, the impact of
the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable,
of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to
devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will
be stale entries for the physical address range.
An argument could be made to require that the ->kill() operation be set in
the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately. However, it helps code
readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep
the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.

Since a2468cc9bfdf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node"),
avail_lists field of swap_info_struct is changed to an array with
MAX_NUMNODES elements. This made swap_info_struct size increased to 40KiB
and needs an order-4 page to hold it.
This is not optimal in that:
1 Most systems have way less than MAX_NUMNODES(1024) nodes so it
is a waste of memory;
2 It could cause swapon failure if the swap device is swapped on
after system has been running for a while, due to no order-4
page is available as pointed out by Vasily Averin.
Solve the above two issues by using nr_node_ids(which is the actual
possible node number the running system has) for avail_lists instead of
MAX_NUMNODES.
nr_node_ids is unknown at compile time so can't be directly used when
declaring this array. What I did here is to declare avail_lists as zero
element array and allocate space for it when allocating space for
swap_info_struct. The reason why keep using array but not pointer is
plist_for_each_entry needs the field to be part of the struct, so pointer
will not work.
This patch is on top of Vasily Averin's fix commit. I think the use of
kvzalloc for swap_info_struct is still needed in case nr_node_ids is
really big on some systems.

Commit fa5e084e43eb ("vmscan: do not unconditionally treat zones that
fail zone_reclaim() as full") changed the return value of
node_reclaim(). The original return value 0 means NODE_RECLAIM_SOME
after this commit.
While the return value of node_reclaim() when CONFIG_NUMA is n is not
changed. This will leads to call zone_watermark_ok() again.
This patch fixes the return value by adjusting to NODE_RECLAIM_NOSCAN.
Since node_reclaim() is only called in page_alloc.c, move it to
mm/internal.h.

Now that totalram_pages and managed_pages are atomic varibles, no need of
managed_page_count spinlock. The lock had really a weak consistency
guarantee. It hasn't been used for anything but the update but no reader
actually cares about all the values being updated to be in sync.

totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages are made static inline function.
Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating

https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes
better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing
poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it.
Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a

totalram_panges, totalhigh_pages and eventually managed_page_count_lock

Patch series "Currently used jhash are slow enough and replace it allow as
to make KSM", v8.
Apeed (in kernel):
ksm: crc32c hash() 12081 MB/s
ksm: xxh64 hash() 8770 MB/s
ksm: xxh32 hash() 4529 MB/s
ksm: jhash2 hash() 1569 MB/s
Sioh Lee's testing (copy from other mail):
Test platform: openstack cloud platform (NEWTON version)
Experiment node: openstack based cloud compute node (CPU: xeon E5-2620 v3, memory 64gb)
VM: (2 VCPU, RAM 4GB, DISK 20GB) * 4
Linux kernel: 4.14 (latest version)
KSM setup - sleep_millisecs: 200ms, pages_to_scan: 200
Experiment process:
Firstly, we turn off KSM and launch 4 VMs. Then we turn on the KSM and
measure the checksum computation time until full_scans become two.
The experimental results (the experimental value is the average of the measured values)
crc32c_intel: 1084.10ns
crc32c (no hardware acceleration): 7012.51ns
xxhash32: 2227.75ns
xxhash64: 1413.16ns
jhash2: 5128.30ns
In summary, the result shows that crc32c_intel has advantages over all of
the hash function used in the experiment. (decreased by 84.54% compared
to crc32c, 78.86% compared to jhash2, 51.33% xxhash32, 23.28% compared to
xxhash64) the results are similar to those of Timofey.
But, use only xxhash for now, because for using crc32c, cryptoapi must be
initialized first - that require some tricky solution to work good in all
situations.
So:
- First patch implement compile time pickup of fastest implementation of
xxhash for target platform.
- The second patch replaces jhash2 with xxhash
This patch (of 2):
xxh32() - fast on both 32/64-bit platforms
xxh64() - fast only on 64-bit platform
Create xxhash() which will pick up the fastest version at compile time.

which are not triggered by the memory hotplug but rather CMA allocator.
The original idea behind dumping the page state for all call paths was
that these messages will be helpful debugging failures. From the above it
seems that this is not the case for the CMA path because we are lacking
much more context. E.g the second reported page might be a CMA allocated
page. It is still interesting to see a slab page in the CMA area but it
is hard to tell whether this is bug from the above output alone.
Address this issue by dumping the page state only on request. Both
start_isolate_page_range and has_unmovable_pages already have an argument
to ignore hwpoison pages so make this argument more generic and turn it
into flags and allow callers to combine non-default modes into a mask.
While we are at it, has_unmovable_pages call from
is_pageblock_removable_nolock (sysfs removable file) is questionable to
report the failure so drop it from there as well.

This happened while running in qemu-system-aarch64, the AMBA PL011 UART
driver when enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE.
arch_initcall(pl011_init) came before subsys_initcall(default_bdi_init),
devtmpfs' handle_remove() crashes because the reference count is a NULL
pointer only because wb->bdi hasn't been initialized yet.
Rework so that wb_put have an extra check if wb->bdi before decrement
wb->refcnt and also add a WARN_ON_ONCE to get a warning if it happens
again in other drivers.

Contrary to its name, mmu_notifier_synchronize() does not synchronize the
notifier's SRCU instance, but rather waits for RCU callbacks to finish.
i.e. it invokes rcu_barrier(). The RCU documentation is quite clear on
this matter, explicitly calling out that rcu_barrier() does not imply
synchronize_rcu().
As there are no callers of mmu_notifier_synchronize() and it's unclear
whether any user of mmu_notifier_call_srcu() will ever want to barrier on
their callbacks, simply remove the function.

Multiple people have reported the following sparse warning:
./include/linux/slab.h:332:43: warning: dubious: x & !y
The minimal fix would be to change the logical & to boolean &&, which
emits the same code, but Andrew has suggested that the branch-avoiding
tricks are maybe not worthwile. David Laight provided a nice comparison
of disassembly of multiple variants, which shows that the current version
produces a 4 deep dependency chain, and fixing the sparse warning by
changing logical and to multiplication emits an IMUL, making it even more
expensive.
The code as rewritten by this patch yielded the best disassembly, with a
single predictable branch for the most common case, and a ternary operator
for the rest, which gcc seems to compile without a branch or cmov by
itself.
The result should be more readable, without a sparse warning and probably
also faster for the common case.

Tag-based KASAN doesn't check memory accesses through pointers tagged with
0xff. When page_address is used to get pointer to memory that corresponds
to some page, the tag of the resulting pointer gets set to 0xff, even
though the allocated memory might have been tagged differently.
For slab pages it's impossible to recover the correct tag to return from
page_address, since the page might contain multiple slab objects tagged
with different values, and we can't know in advance which one of them is
going to get accessed. For non slab pages however, we can recover the tag
in page_address, since the whole page was marked with the same tag.
This patch adds tagging to non slab memory allocated with pagealloc. To
set the tag of the pointer returned from page_address, the tag gets stored
to page->flags when the memory gets allocated.

Tag-based KASAN inline instrumentation mode (which embeds checks of shadow
memory into the generated code, instead of inserting a callback) generates
a brk instruction when a tag mismatch is detected.
This commit adds a tag-based KASAN specific brk handler, that decodes the
immediate value passed to the brk instructions (to extract information
about the memory access that triggered the mismatch), reads the register
values (x0 contains the guilty address) and reports the bug.

While with SLUB we can actually preassign tags for caches with contructors
and store them in pointers in the freelist, SLAB doesn't allow that since
the freelist is stored as an array of indexes, so there are no pointers to
store the tags.
Instead we compute the tag twice, once when a slab is created before
calling the constructor and then again each time when an object is
allocated with kmalloc. Tag is computed simply by taking the lowest byte
of the index that corresponds to the object. However in kasan_kmalloc we
only have access to the objects pointer, so we need a way to find out
which index this object corresponds to.
This patch moves obj_to_index from slab.c to include/linux/slab_def.h to
be reused by KASAN.

This commit adds a few helper functions, that are meant to be used to work
with tags embedded in the top byte of kernel pointers: to set, to get or
to reset the top byte.

A tag-based KASAN shadow memory cell contains a memory tag, that
corresponds to the tag in the top byte of the pointer, that points to that
memory. The native top byte value of kernel pointers is 0xff, so with
tag-based KASAN we need to initialize shadow memory to 0xff.

With tag based KASAN mode the early shadow value is 0xff and not 0x00, so
this patch renames kasan_zero_(page|pte|pmd|pud|p4d) to
kasan_early_shadow_(page|pte|pmd|pud|p4d) to avoid confusion.

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic KASAN mode (the one
that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, that enables the software tag-based KASAN mode.
The name CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is chosen as in the future we will have
another hardware tag-based KASAN mode, that will rely on hardware memory
tagging support in arm64.
With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS enabled, compiler options are changed to
instrument kernel files with -fsantize=kernel-hwaddress (except the ones
for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).
Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS support both
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.
This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of
tag-based KASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts
common hooks implementation.
While this commit adds the CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS config option, this option
is not selectable, as it depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS, which we will
enable once all the infrastracture code has been added.

Patch series "kasan: add software tag-based mode for arm64", v13.
This patchset adds a new software tag-based mode to KASAN [1]. (Initially
this mode was called KHWASAN, but it got renamed, see the naming rationale
at the end of this section).
The plan is to implement HWASan [2] for the kernel with the incentive,
that it's going to have comparable to KASAN performance, but in the same
time consume much less memory, trading that off for somewhat imprecise bug
detection and being supported only for arm64.
The underlying ideas of the approach used by software tag-based KASAN are:
1. By using the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) arm64 CPU feature, we can store
pointer tags in the top byte of each kernel pointer.
2. Using shadow memory, we can store memory tags for each chunk of kernel
memory.
3. On each memory allocation, we can generate a random tag, embed it into
the returned pointer and set the memory tags that correspond to this
chunk of memory to the same value.
4. By using compiler instrumentation, before each memory access we can add
a check that the pointer tag matches the tag of the memory that is being
accessed.
5. On a tag mismatch we report an error.
With this patchset the existing KASAN mode gets renamed to generic KASAN,
with the word "generic" meaning that the implementation can be supported
by any architecture as it is purely software.
The new mode this patchset adds is called software tag-based KASAN. The
word "tag-based" refers to the fact that this mode uses tags embedded into
the top byte of kernel pointers and the TBI arm64 CPU feature that allows
to dereference such pointers. The word "software" here means that shadow
memory manipulation and tag checking on pointer dereference is done in
software. As it is the only tag-based implementation right now, "software
tag-based" KASAN is sometimes referred to as simply "tag-based" in this
patchset.
A potential expansion of this mode is a hardware tag-based mode, which
would use hardware memory tagging support (announced by Arm [3]) instead
of compiler instrumentation and manual shadow memory manipulation.
Same as generic KASAN, software tag-based KASAN is strictly a debugging
feature.

[3] https://community.arm.com/processors/b/blog/posts/arm-a-profile-architecture-2018-developments-armv85a
====== Rationale
On mobile devices generic KASAN's memory usage is significant problem.
One of the main reasons to have tag-based KASAN is to be able to perform a
similar set of checks as the generic one does, but with lower memory
requirements.
Comment from Vishwath Mohan <vishwath@google.com>:
I don't have data on-hand, but anecdotally both ASAN and KASAN have proven
problematic to enable for environments that don't tolerate the increased
memory pressure well. This includes
(a) Low-memory form factors - Wear, TV, Things, lower-tier phones like Go,
(c) Connected components like Pixel's visual core [1].
These are both places I'd love to have a low(er) memory footprint option at
my disposal.
Comment from Evgenii Stepanov <eugenis@google.com>:
Looking at a live Android device under load, slab (according to
/proc/meminfo) + kernel stack take 8-10% available RAM (~350MB). KASAN's
overhead of 2x - 3x on top of it is not insignificant.
Not having this overhead enables near-production use - ex. running
KASAN/KHWASAN kernel on a personal, daily-use device to catch bugs that do
not reproduce in test configuration. These are the ones that often cost
the most engineering time to track down.
CPU overhead is bad, but generally tolerable. RAM is critical, in our
experience. Once it gets low enough, OOM-killer makes your life
miserable.
[1] https://www.blog.google/products/pixel/pixel-visual-core-image-processing-and-machine-learning-pixel-2/
====== Technical details
Software tag-based KASAN mode is implemented in a very similar way to the
generic one. This patchset essentially does the following:
1. TCR_TBI1 is set to enable Top Byte Ignore.
2. Shadow memory is used (with a different scale, 1:16, so each shadow
byte corresponds to 16 bytes of kernel memory) to store memory tags.
3. All slab objects are aligned to shadow scale, which is 16 bytes.
4. All pointers returned from the slab allocator are tagged with a random
tag and the corresponding shadow memory is poisoned with the same value.
5. Compiler instrumentation is used to insert tag checks. Either by
calling callbacks or by inlining them (CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE and
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE flags are reused).
6. When a tag mismatch is detected in callback instrumentation mode
KASAN simply prints a bug report. In case of inline instrumentation,
clang inserts a brk instruction, and KASAN has it's own brk handler,
which reports the bug.
7. The memory in between slab objects is marked with a reserved tag, and
acts as a redzone.
8. When a slab object is freed it's marked with a reserved tag.
Bug detection is imprecise for two reasons:
1. We won't catch some small out-of-bounds accesses, that fall into the
same shadow cell, as the last byte of a slab object.
2. We only have 1 byte to store tags, which means we have a 1/256
probability of a tag match for an incorrect access (actually even
slightly less due to reserved tag values).
Despite that there's a particular type of bugs that tag-based KASAN can
detect compared to generic KASAN: use-after-free after the object has been
allocated by someone else.
====== Testing
Some kernel developers voiced a concern that changing the top byte of
kernel pointers may lead to subtle bugs that are difficult to discover.
To address this concern deliberate testing has been performed.
It doesn't seem feasible to do some kind of static checking to find
potential issues with pointer tagging, so a dynamic approach was taken.
All pointer comparisons/subtractions have been instrumented in an LLVM
compiler pass and a kernel module that would print a bug report whenever
two pointers with different tags are being compared/subtracted (ignoring
comparisons with NULL pointers and with pointers obtained by casting an
error code to a pointer type) has been used. Then the kernel has been
booted in QEMU and on an Odroid C2 board and syzkaller has been run.
This yielded the following results.
The two places that look interesting are:
is_vmalloc_addr in include/linux/mm.h
is_kernel_rodata in mm/util.c
Here we compare a pointer with some fixed untagged values to make sure
that the pointer lies in a particular part of the kernel address space.
Since tag-based KASAN doesn't add tags to pointers that belong to rodata
or vmalloc regions, this should work as is. To make sure debug checks to
those two functions that check that the result doesn't change whether we
operate on pointers with or without untagging has been added.
A few other cases that don't look that interesting:
Comparing pointers to achieve unique sorting order of pointee objects
(e.g. sorting locks addresses before performing a double lock):
tty_ldisc_lock_pair_timeout in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c
pipe_double_lock in fs/pipe.c
unix_state_double_lock in net/unix/af_unix.c
lock_two_nondirectories in fs/inode.c
mutex_lock_double in kernel/events/core.c
ep_cmp_ffd in fs/eventpoll.c
fsnotify_compare_groups fs/notify/mark.c
Nothing needs to be done here, since the tags embedded into pointers
don't change, so the sorting order would still be unique.
Checks that a pointer belongs to some particular allocation:
is_sibling_entry in lib/radix-tree.c
object_is_on_stack in include/linux/sched/task_stack.h
Nothing needs to be done here either, since two pointers can only belong
to the same allocation if they have the same tag.
Overall, since the kernel boots and works, there are no critical bugs.
As for the rest, the traditional kernel testing way (use until fails) is
the only one that looks feasible.
Another point here is that tag-based KASAN is available under a separate
config option that needs to be deliberately enabled. Even though it might
be used in a "near-production" environment to find bugs that are not found
during fuzzing or running tests, it is still a debug tool.
====== Benchmarks
The following numbers were collected on Odroid C2 board. Both generic and
tag-based KASAN were used in inline instrumentation mode.
Boot time [1]:
* ~1.7 sec for clean kernel
* ~5.0 sec for generic KASAN
* ~5.0 sec for tag-based KASAN
Network performance [2]:
* 8.33 Gbits/sec for clean kernel
* 3.17 Gbits/sec for generic KASAN
* 2.85 Gbits/sec for tag-based KASAN
Slab memory usage after boot [3]:
* ~40 kb for clean kernel
* ~105 kb (~260% overhead) for generic KASAN
* ~47 kb (~20% overhead) for tag-based KASAN
KASAN memory overhead consists of three main parts:
1. Increased slab memory usage due to redzones.
2. Shadow memory (the whole reserved once during boot).
3. Quaratine (grows gradually until some preset limit; the more the limit,
the more the chance to detect a use-after-free).
Comparing tag-based vs generic KASAN for each of these points:
1. 20% vs 260% overhead.
2. 1/16th vs 1/8th of physical memory.
3. Tag-based KASAN doesn't require quarantine.
[1] Time before the ext4 driver is initialized.
[2] Measured as `iperf -s & iperf -c 127.0.0.1 -t 30`.
[3] Measured as `cat /proc/meminfo | grep Slab`.
====== Some notes
A few notes:
1. The patchset can be found here:
https://github.com/xairy/kasan-prototype/tree/khwasan
2. Building requires a recent Clang version (7.0.0 or later).
3. Stack instrumentation is not supported yet and will be added later.
This patch (of 25):
Tag-based KASAN changes the value of the top byte of pointers returned
from the kernel allocation functions (such as kmalloc). This patch
updates KASAN hooks signatures and their usage in SLAB and SLUB code to
reflect that.

"New features:
- swapfile support - after a long time it's here, with some
limitations where COW design does not work well with the swap
implementation (nodatacow file, no compression, cannot be
snapshotted, not possible on multiple devices, ...), as this is the
most restricted but working setup, we'll try to improve that in the
future
- metadata uuid - an optional incompat feature to assign a new
filesystem UUID without overwriting all metadata blocks, stored
only in superblock
- more balance messages are printed to system log, initial is in the
format of the command line that would be used to start it
Fixes:
- tag pages of a snapshot to better separate pages that are involved
in the snapshot (and need to get synced) from newly dirtied pages
that could slow down or even livelock the snapshot operation
- improved check of filesystem id associated with a device during
scan to detect duplicate devices that could be mixed up during
mount
- fix device replace state transitions, eg. when it ends up
interrupted and reboot tries to restart balance too, or when
start/cancel ioctls race
- fix a crash due to a race when quotas are enabled during snapshot
creation
- GFP_NOFS/memalloc_nofs_* fixes due to GFP_KERNEL allocations in
transaction context
- fix fsync of files with multiple hard links in new directories
- fix race of send with transaction commits that create snapshots
Core changes:
- cleanups:
* further removals of now-dead fsync code
* core function for finding free extent has been split and
provides a base for further cleanups to make the logic more
understandable
* removed lot of indirect callbacks for data and metadata inodes
* simplified refcounting and locking for cloned extent buffers
* removed redundant function arguments
* defines converted to enums where appropriate
- separate reserve for delayed refs from global reserve, update logic
to do less trickery and ad-hoc heuristics, move out some related
expensive operations from transaction commit or file truncate
- dev-replace switched from custom locking scheme to semaphore
- remove first phase of balance that tried to make some space for the
relocation by calling shrink and grow, this did not work as
expected and only introduced more error states due to potential
resize failures, slightly improves the runtime as the chunks on all
devices are not needlessly enumerated
- clone and deduplication now use generic helper that adds a few more
checks that were missing from the original btrfs implementation of
the ioctls"

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"In the finest of holiday of traditions, I have a number of gifts to
share today. While most of them are re-gifts from others, unlike the
typical re-gift, these are things you will want in and around your
tree; I promise.
This pull request is perhaps a bit larger than our typical PR, but
most of it comes from Jan's rework of audit's fanotify code; a very
welcome improvement. We ran this through our normal regression tests,
as well as some newly created stress tests and everything looks good.
Richard added a few patches, mostly cleaning up a few things and and
shortening some of the audit records that we send to userspace; a
change the userspace folks are quite happy about.
Finally YueHaibing and I kick in a few patches to simplify things a
bit and make the code less prone to errors.
Lastly, I want to say thanks one more time to everyone who has
contributed patches, testing, and code reviews for the audit subsystem
over the past year. The project is what it is due to your help and
contributions - thank you"

to guests on Power9.
- Another large series to enable hardware assistance for TLB table

- Several fixes for our Transactional Memory handling discovered by
fuzzing the signal return path.
- Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file
like other architectures.
- A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a
WARN_ON_ONCE, user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a
ratelimited and appropriately scary warning.
- A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more
similar to other arches and also more compact and informative.

"Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from
dts files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt

Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:
"Here's the main MIPS pull for Linux 4.21. Core architecture changes
include:
- Syscall tables & definitions for unistd.h are now generated by
scripts, providing greater consistency with other architectures &
making it easier to add new syscalls.
- Support for building kernels with no floating point support, upon
which any userland attempting to use floating point instructions
will receive a SIGILL. Mostly useful to shrink the kernel & as
preparation for nanoMIPS support which does not yet include FP.
- MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) vector register context is now exposed
by ptrace via a new NT_MIPS_MSA regset.
- ASIDs are now stored as 64b values even for MIPS32 kernels,
expanding the ASID version field sufficiently that we don't need to
worry about overflow & avoiding rare issues with reused ASIDs that
have been observed in the wild.
- The branch delay slot "emulation" page is now mapped without write
permission for the user, preventing its use as a nice location for
attacks to execute malicious code from.
- Support for ioremap_prot(), primarily to allow gdb or other ptrace
users the ability to view their tracee's memory using the same
cache coherency attribute.
- Optimizations to more cpu_has_* macros, allowing more to be
compile-time constant where possible.
- Enable building the whole kernel with UBSAN instrumentation.
- Enable building the kernel with link-time dead code & data
elimination.
Platform specific changes include:
- The Boston board gains a workaround for DMA prefetching issues with
the EG20T Platform Controller Hub that it uses.
- Cleanups to Cavium Octeon code removing about 20k lines of
redundant code, mostly unused or duplicate register definitions in
headers.
- defconfig updates for the DECstation machines, including new
defconfigs for r4k & 64b machines.
- Further work on Loongson 3 support.
- DMA fixes for SiByte machines"

Pull arm64 festive updates from Will Deacon:
"In the end, we ended up with quite a lot more than I expected:
- Support for ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication in userspace (CRIU and
kernel-side support to come later)
- Support for per-thread stack canaries, pending an update to GCC
that is currently undergoing review
- Support for kexec_file_load(), which permits secure boot of a kexec
payload but also happens to improve the performance of kexec
dramatically because we can avoid the sucky purgatory code from
userspace. Kdump will come later (requires updates to libfdt).
- Optimisation of our dynamic CPU feature framework, so that all
detected features are enabled via a single stop_machine()
invocation
- KPTI whitelisting of Cortex-A CPUs unaffected by Meltdown, so that
they can benefit from global TLB entries when KASLR is not in use
- 52-bit virtual addressing for userspace (kernel remains 48-bit)
- Patch in LSE atomics for per-cpu atomic operations
- Custom preempt.h implementation to avoid unconditional calls to
preempt_schedule() from preempt_enable()
- Support for the new 'SB' Speculation Barrier instruction
- Vectorised implementation of XOR checksumming and CRC32
optimisations
- Workaround for Cortex-A76 erratum #1165522
- Improved compatibility with Clang/LLD
- Support for TX2 system PMUS for profiling the L3 cache and DMC
- Reflect read-only permissions in the linear map by default
- Ensure MMIO reads are ordered with subsequent calls to Xdelay()
- Initial support for memory hotplug
- Tweak the threshold when we invalidate the TLB by-ASID, so that
mremap() performance is improved for ranges spanning multiple PMDs.
- Minor refactoring and cleanups"
