Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes and updates for x86:
- Address a swiotlb regression which was caused by the recent DMA
rework and made driver fail because dma_direct_supported() returned
false
- Fix a signedness bug in the APIC ID validation which caused invalid
APIC IDs to be detected as valid thereby bloating the CPU possible
space.
- Fix inconsisten config dependcy/select magic for the MFD_CS5535
driver.
- Fix a corruption of the physical address space bits when encryption
has reduced the address space and late cpuinfo updates overwrite
the reduced bit information with the original value.
- Dominiks syscall rework which consolidates the architecture
specific syscall functions so all syscalls can be wrapped with the
same macros. This allows to switch x86/64 to struct pt_regs based
syscalls. Extend the clearing of user space controlled registers in
the entry patch to the lower registers"

We at Red Hat/Fedora have generally tried to have a per file breakdown of
every config option we set. This makes it easy for us to add new options
when they are exposed and keep a changelog of why they were set.
A Fedora example is here:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/kernel.git/tree/configs/fedora/generic
Using various merge scripts, we build up a config file and run it through
'make listnewconfig' and 'make oldnoconfig'. The idea is to print out new
config options that haven't been manually set and use the default until
a patch is posted to set it properly.
To speed things up, it would be nice to make it easier to generate a
patch to post the default setting. The output of 'make listnewconfig'
has two issues that limit us:
- it doesn't provide the default value
- it doesn't provide the new 'choice' options that get flagged in
'oldconfig'
This patch extends 'listnewconfig' to address the above two issues.
This allows us to run a script
make listnewconfig | rhconfig-tool -o patches; git send-email patches/
The output of 'make listnewconfig':
CONFIG_NET_EMATCH_IPT
CONFIG_IPVLAN
CONFIG_ICE
CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_NI
CONFIG_IEEE802154_MCR20A
CONFIG_IR_IMON_DECODER
CONFIG_IR_IMON_RAW
The new output of 'make listnewconfig':
CONFIG_KERNEL_XZ=n
CONFIG_KERNEL_LZO=n
CONFIG_NET_EMATCH_IPT=n
CONFIG_IPVLAN=n
CONFIG_ICE=n
CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_NI=y

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic
Pull asm-generic fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
"I have one regression fix for a minor build problem after the
architecture removal series, plus a rework of the barriers in the
readl/writel functions, thanks to work by Sinan Kaya:
This started from a discussion on the linuxpcc and rdma mailing
lists[1]. To summarize, we decided that architectures are responsible
to serialize readl() and writel() accesses on a device MMIO space
relative to DMA performed by that device.
This series provides a pessimistic implementation of that behavior for
asm-generic/io.h, which is in turn used by a number of architectures
(h8300, microblaze, nios2, openrisc, s390, sparc, um, unicore32, and
xtensa). Some of those presumably need no extra barriers, or something
weaker than rmb()/wmb(), and they are advised to override the new
default for better performance.
For inb()/outb(), the same barriers are used, but architectures might
want to add another barrier to outb() here if that can guarantee
non-posted behavior (some architectures can, others cannot do that).
The readl_relaxed()/writel_relaxed() family of functions retains the
existing behavior with no extra barriers"
[1] https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2018-March/170481.html

Using bool in a bitfield isn't a good idea as the alignment behavior is
arch implementation defined.
Suggest using unsigned int or u<8|16|32> instead.

Kernel style seems to prefer line wrapping an assignment with the
assignment operator on the previous line like:
<leading tabs> identifier =

over
<leading tabs> identifier
= expression;
somewhere around a 50:1 ratio
$ git grep -P "[^=]=\s*$" -- "*.[ch]" | wc -l
52008
$ git grep -P "^\s+[\*\/\+\|\%\-]?=[^=>]" | wc -l

The get_quoted_string function does not expect invalid arguments.
The $stat test can return non-statements for complicated macros like
TRACE_EVENT.
Allow the $stat block and test for vsprintf misuses to exceed the actual
block length and possibly test invalid lines by validating the arguments
of get_quoted_string.
Return "" if either get_quoted_string argument is undefined.

potentially exploitable. We have tools in the kernel to help us do the
right thing. We can have checkpatch warn developers of potential
dangers of using %px.

I tried building using a freshly built Make (4.2.1-69-g8a731d1), but
already the objtool build broke with
orc_dump.c: In function ‘orc_dump’:
orc_dump.c:106:2: error: ‘elf_getshnum’ is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) {
Turns out that with that new Make, the backslash was not removed, so cpp
didn't see a #include directive, grep found nothing, and
-DLIBELF_USE_DEPRECATED was wrongly put in CFLAGS.
Now, that new Make behaviour is documented in their NEWS file:
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
thus a call such as:
foo := $(shell echo '#')
is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
foo := $(shell echo '\#')
Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles
portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
C := \#
foo := $(shell echo '$C')
This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
This also fixes up the two make-cmd instances to replace # with $(pound)
rather than with \#. There might very well be other places that need
similar fixup in preparation for whatever future Make release contains
the above change, but at least this builds an x86_64 defconfig with the
new make.

Tidy the naming convention for compat syscall subs. Hints which describe
the purpose of the stub go in front and receive a double underscore to
denote that they are generated on-the-fly by the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
macro.
For the generic case, this means:
t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
__do_compat_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
T __se_compat_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long,
# casts them to unsigned long and then to
# the declared type)
T compat_sys_waitid # alias to __se_compat_sys_waitid()
# (taking parameters as declared), to
# be included in syscall table
For x86, the naming is as follows:
t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
__do_compat_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
t __se_compat_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long,
# casts them to unsigned long and then to
# the declared type)
T __ia32_compat_sys_waitid # IA32_EMULATION 32-bit-ptregs -> C stub,
# calls __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be
# included in syscall table
T __x32_compat_sys_waitid # x32 64-bit-ptregs -> C stub, calls
# __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be included
# in syscall table
If only one of IA32_EMULATION and x32 is enabled, __se_compat_sys_waitid()
may be inlined into the stub __{ia32,x32}_compat_sys_waitid().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tobin/leaks
Pull leaking-addresses updates from Tobin Harding:
"This set represents improvements to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl
script.
The major improvement is that with this set applied the script
actually runs in a reasonable amount of time (less than a minute on a
standard stock Ubuntu user desktop). Also, we have a second maintainer
now and a tree hosted on kernel.org
We do a few code clean ups. We fix the command help output. Handling
of the vsyscall address range is fixed to check the whole range
instead of just the start/end addresses. We add support for 5 page
table levels (suggested on LKML). We use a system command to get the
machine architecture instead of using Perl. Calling this command for
every regex comparison is what previously choked the script, caching
the result of this call gave the major speed improvement. We add
support for scanning 32-bit kernels using the user/kernel memory
split. Path skipping code refactored and simplified (meaning easier
script configuration). We remove version numbering. We add a variable
name to improve readability of a regex and finally we check filenames
for leaking addresses.
Currently script scans /proc/PID for all PID. With this set applied we
only scan for PID==1. It was observed that on an idle system files
under /proc/PID are predominantly the same for all processes. Also it
was noted that the script does not scan _all_ the kernel since it only
scans active processes. Scanning only for PID==1 makes explicit the
inherent flaw in the script that the scan is only partial and also
speeds things up"

mkdebian. The package build commands are kept in builddeb, which
is now an internal command called from debian/rules.
With these changes in place, we can now use dpkg-buildpackage from
deb-pkg and bindeb-pkg removing need for handrolled source/changes
generation.
This patch is based on the criticism of the current state of builddeb
discussed on:

GNU Make automatically deletes intermediate files that are updated
in a chain of pattern rules.
Example 1) %.dtb.o <- %.dtb.S <- %.dtb <- %.dts
Example 2) %.o <- %.c <- %.c_shipped
A couple of makefiles mark such targets as .PRECIOUS to prevent Make
from deleting them, but the correct way is to use .SECONDARY.
.SECONDARY
Prerequisites of this special target are treated as intermediate
files but are never automatically deleted.
.PRECIOUS
When make is interrupted during execution, it may delete the target
file it is updating if the file was modified since make started.
If you mark the file as precious, make will never delete the file
if interrupted.
Both can avoid deletion of intermediate files, but the difference is
the behavior when Make is interrupted; .SECONDARY deletes the target,
but .PRECIOUS does not.
The use of .PRECIOUS is relatively rare since we do not want to keep
partially constructed (possibly corrupted) targets.
Another difference is that .PRECIOUS works with pattern rules whereas
.SECONDARY does not.
.PRECIOUS: $(obj)/%.lex.c
works, but
.SECONDARY: $(obj)/%.lex.c
has no effect. However, for the reason above, I do not want to use
.PRECIOUS which could cause obscure build breakage.
The targets specified as .SECONDARY must be explicit. $(targets)
contains all targets that need to include .*.cmd files. So, the
intermediates you want to keep are mostly in there. Therefore, mark
$(targets) as .SECONDARY. It means primary targets are also marked
as .SECONDARY, but I do not see any drawback for this.
I replaced some .SECONDARY / .PRECIOUS markers with 'targets'. This
will make Kbuild search for non-existing .*.cmd files, but this is
not a noticeable performance issue.

Our convention is to distinguish file types by suffixes with a period
as a separator.
*-asn1.[ch] is a different pattern from other generated sources such
as *.lex.c, *.tab.[ch], *.dtb.S, etc. More confusing, files with
'-asn1.[ch]' are generated files, but '_asn1.[ch]' are checked-in
files:
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_h323_asn1.c
include/linux/netfilter/nf_conntrack_h323_asn1.h
include/linux/sunrpc/gss_asn1.h
Rename generated files to *.asn1.[ch] for consistency.

Another common pattern that consists of chained commands is to compile
a DTB as binary data into the kernel image or a module. It is used in
several places in the source tree. Support it in the core Makefile.
$(call if_changed,dt_S_dtb) is more suitable than $(call cmd,dt_S_dtb)
in case cmd_dt_S_dtb is changed in the future.

Files generated by if_changed* must be added to 'targets' to include
*.cmd files. Otherwise, they would be regenerated every time.
The build system automatically adds objects to 'targets' where
appropriate, such as obj-y, extra-y, etc. but does nothing for
intermediate files. So, each Makefile needs to add them by itself.
There are some common cases where objects are generated by chained
rules. Lexers and parsers are compiled like follows:
%.lex.o <- %.lex.c <- %.l
%.tab.o <- %.tab.c <- %.y
They are common patterns, so it is reasonable to take care of them
in the core Makefile instead of requiring each Makefile to do so.
At this moment, you cannot delete 'target += zconf.lex.c' in the
Kconfig Makefile because zconf.lex.c is included from zconf.tab.c
instead of being compiled separately. It should be deleted after
Kconfig is more refactored.

Now that the kernel build supports flex and bison, remove the _shipped
files and generate them during the build instead.
There are no more shipped lexer and parser, so I ripped off the rules
in scripts/Malefile.lib that were used for REGENERATE_PARSERS.
The genksyms parser has ambiguous grammar, which would emit warnings:
scripts/genksyms/parse.y: warning: 9 shift/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-sr]
scripts/genksyms/parse.y: warning: 5 reduce/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-rr]
They are normally suppressed, but displayed when W=1 is given.

Files suffixed by .lex.c, .tab.[ch] are generated lexers, parsers,
respectively. Clean them up globally from the top Makefile.
Some of the final host programs those lexer/parser are linked into
are necessary for building external modules, but the intermediates
are unneeded. They can be cleaned away by 'make clean' instead of
'make mrproper'.

When the system is idle it is likely that most files under /proc/PID
will be identical for various processes. Scanning _all_ the PIDs under
/proc is unnecessary and implies that we are thoroughly scanning /proc.
This is _not_ the case because there may be ways userspace can trigger
creation of /proc files that leak addresses but were not present during
a scan. For these two reasons we should exclude all PID directories
under /proc except '1/'

Currently we are repeatedly calling `uname -m`. This is causing the
script to take a long time to run (more than 10 seconds to parse
/proc/kallsyms). We can use Perl state variables to cache the result of
the first call to `uname -m`. With this change in place the script
scans the whole kernel in under a minute.

Currently script has multiple configuration arrays. This is confusing,
evident by the fact that a bunch of the entries are in the wrong place.
We can simplify the code by just having a single array for absolute
paths to skip and a single array for file names to skip wherever they
appear in the scanned directory tree. There are also currently multiple
subroutines to handle the different arrays, we can reduce these to a
single subroutine also.

Currently script only supports x86_64 and ppc64. It would be nice to be
able to scan 32-bit machines also. We can add support for 32-bit
architectures by modifying how we check for false positives, taking
advantage of the page offset used by the kernel, and using the correct
regular expression.
Support for 32-bit machines is enabled by the observation that the kernel
addresses on 32-bit machines are larger [in value] than the page offset.
We can use this to filter false positives when scanning the kernel for
leaking addresses.
Programmatic determination of the running architecture is not
immediately obvious (current 32-bit machines return various strings from
`uname -m`). We therefore provide a flag to enable scanning of 32-bit
kernels. Also we can check the kernel config file for the offset and if
not found default to 0xc0000000. A command line option to parse in the
page offset is also provided. We do automatically detect architecture
if running on ix86.
Add support for 32-bit kernels. Add a command line option for page
offset.

Currently script only supports 4 page table levels because of the way
the kernel address regular expression is crafted. We can do better than
this. Using previously added support for kernel configuration options we
can get the number of page table levels defined by
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS. Using this value a correct regular expression can
be crafted. This only supports 5 page tables on x86_64.
