      vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement · a9a08845
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

      crypto: sha512-mb - initialize pending lengths correctly · eff84b37
      Eric Biggers authored 
      

The SHA-512 multibuffer code keeps track of the number of blocks pending
in each lane.  The minimum of these values is used to identify the next
lane that will be completed.  Unused lanes are set to a large number
(0xFFFFFFFF) so that they don't affect this calculation.

However, it was forgotten to set the lengths to this value in the
initial state, where all lanes are unused.  As a result it was possible
for sha512_mb_mgr_get_comp_job_avx2() to select an unused lane, causing
a NULL pointer dereference.  Specifically this could happen in the case
where ->update() was passed fewer than SHA512_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of data,
so it then called sha_complete_job() without having actually submitted
any blocks to the multi-buffer code.  This hit a NULL pointer
dereference if another task happened to have submitted blocks
concurrently to the same CPU and the flush timer had not yet expired.

Fix this by initializing sha512_mb_mgr->lens correctly.

As usual, this bug was found by syzkaller.

      membarrier/x86: Provide core serializing command · 10bcc80e
      Mathieu Desnoyers authored 
      

There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier:

1) When returning from the membarrier IPI,
2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before
   going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to
   check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU.

x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, and both IRET and SYSEXIT to go
back to user-space. The IRET instruction is core serializing, but not
SYSEXIT.

x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat
code), SYSRETQ, or IRET. Given that SYSRET{L,Q} is not core serializing,
we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core
serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special
case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into
active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case.

Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.

Ensure that a core serializing instruction is issued before returning to
user-mode. x86 implements return to user-space through sysexit, sysrel,
and sysretq, which are not core serializing.

      membarrier: Document scheduler barrier requirements · 306e0604
      Mathieu Desnoyers authored 
      

Document the membarrier requirement on having a full memory barrier in
__schedule() after coming from user-space, before storing to rq->curr.
It is provided by smp_mb__after_spinlock() in __schedule().

Document that membarrier requires a full barrier on transition from
kernel thread to userspace thread. We currently have an implicit barrier
from atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop() that ensures this.

The x86 switch_mm_irqs_off() full barrier is currently provided by many
cpumask update operations as well as write_cr3(). Document that
write_cr3() provides this barrier.

      x86/power: Fix swsusp_arch_resume prototype · 328008a7
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      

The declaration for swsusp_arch_resume marks it as 'asmlinkage', but the
definition in x86-32 does not, and it fails to include the header with the
declaration. This leads to a warning when building with
link-time-optimizations:

kernel/power/power.h:108:23: error: type of 'swsusp_arch_resume' does not match original declaration [-Werror=lto-type-mismatch]
 extern asmlinkage int swsusp_arch_resume(void);
                       ^
arch/x86/power/hibernate_32.c:148:0: note: 'swsusp_arch_resume' was previously declared here
 int swsusp_arch_resume(void)

This moves the declaration into a globally visible header file and fixes up
both x86 definitions to match it.
