This converts the recvmmsg() system call in all its variations to use
'timespec64' internally for its timeout, and have a __kernel_timespec64
argument in the native entry point. This lets us change the type to use
64-bit time_t at a later point while using the 32-bit compat system call
emulation for existing user space.

This is a preparation patch for converting sys_sched_rr_get_interval to
work with 64-bit time_t on 32-bit architectures. The 'interval' argument
is changed to struct __kernel_timespec, which will be redefined using
64-bit time_t in the future. The compat version of the system call in
turn is enabled for compilation with CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME so
the individual 32-bit architectures can share the handling of the
traditional argument with 64-bit architectures providing it for their
compat mode.

After changing over to 64-bit time_t syscalls, many architectures will
want compat_sys_utimensat() but not respective handlers for utime(),
utimes() and futimesat(). This adds a new __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 to
complement __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME. For now, all 64-bit architectures that
support CONFIG_COMPAT set it, but future 64-bit architectures will not
(tile would not have needed it either, but got removed).
As older 32-bit architectures get converted to using CONFIG_64BIT_TIME,
they will have to use __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 instead of
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME. Architectures using the generic syscall ABI don't
need either of them as they never had a utime syscall.
Since the compat_utimbuf structure is now required outside of
CONFIG_COMPAT, I'm moving it into compat_time.h.

There are four generations of utimes() syscalls: utime(), utimes(),
futimesat() and utimensat(), each one being a superset of the previous
one. For y2038 support, we have to add another one, which is the same
as the existing utimensat() but always passes 64-bit times_t based
timespec values.
There are currently 10 architectures that only use utimensat(), two
that use utimes(), futimesat() and utimensat() but not utime(), and 11
architectures that have all four, and those define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME
in order to get a sys_utime implementation. Since all the new
architectures only want utimensat(), moving all the legacy entry points
into a common __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME guard simplifies the logic. Only alpha
and ia64 grow a tiny bit as they now also get an unused sys_utime(),
but it didn't seem worth the extra complexity of adding yet another
ifdef for those.

When 32-bit architectures get changed to support 64-bit time_t,
utimensat() needs to use the new __kernel_timespec structure as its
argument.
The older utime(), utimes() and futimesat() system calls don't need a
corresponding change as they are no longer used on C libraries that have
64-bit time support.
As we do for the other syscalls that have timespec arguments, we reuse
the 'compat' syscall entry points to implement the traditional four
interfaces, and only leave the new utimensat() as a native handler,
so that the same code gets used on both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels
on each syscall.

While converting compat system call handlers to work on 32-bit
architectures, I found a number of types used in those handlers
that are identical between all architectures.
Let's move all the identical ones into asm-generic/compat.h to avoid
having to add even more identical definitions of those types.
For unknown reasons, mips defines __compat_gid32_t, __compat_uid32_t
and compat_caddr_t as signed, while all others have them unsigned.
This seems to be a mistake, but I'm leaving it alone here. The other
types all differ by size or alignment on at least on architecture.
compat_aio_context_t is currently defined in linux/compat.h but
also needed for compat_sys_io_getevents(), so let's move it into
the same place.
While we still have not decided whether the 32-bit time handling
will always use the compat syscalls, or in which form, I think this
is a useful cleanup that we can merge regardless.

Christoph Hellwig suggested a slightly different path for handling
backwards compatibility with the 32-bit time_t based system calls:
Rather than simply reusing the compat_sys_* entry points on 32-bit
architectures unchanged, we get rid of those entry points and the
compat_time types by renaming them to something that makes more sense
on 32-bit architectures (which don't have a compat mode otherwise),
and then share the entry points under the new name with the 64-bit
architectures that use them for implementing the compatibility.
The following types and interfaces are renamed here, and moved
from linux/compat_time.h to linux/time32.h:
old new
--- ---
compat_time_t old_time32_t
struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32
struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32
struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32
ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32()
get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32()
put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32()
compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32()
compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32()
As we already have aliases in place, this patch addresses only the
instances that are relevant to the system call interface in particular,
not those that occur in device drivers and other modules. Those
will get handled separately, while providing the 64-bit version
of the respective interfaces.
I'm not renaming the timex, rusage and itimerval structures, as we are
still debating what the new interface will look like, and whether we
will need a replacement at all.
This also doesn't change the names of the syscall entry points, which can
be done more easily when we actually switch over the 32-bit architectures
to use them, at that point we need to change COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx to
SYSCALL_DEFINEx with a new name, e.g. with a _time32 suffix.

get_seconds() and do_gettimeofday() are only used by a few modules now any
more (waiting for the respective patches to get accepted), and they are
among the last holdouts of code that is not y2038 safe in the core kernel.
Move the implementation into the timekeeping32.h header to clean up
the core kernel and isolate the old interfaces further.

After many small patches, at least some of the deprecated interfaces
have no remaining users any more and can be removed:
current_kernel_time
do_settimeofday
get_monotonic_boottime
get_monotonic_boottime64
get_monotonic_coarse
get_monotonic_coarse64
getrawmonotonic64
ktime_get_real_ts
timekeeping_clocktai
timespec_trunc
timespec_valid_strict
time_to_tm
For many of the remaining time functions, we are missing one or
two patches that failed to make it into 4.19, they will be removed
in the following merge window.
The replacement functions for the removed interfaces are documented in

Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang:
"As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap
backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several
possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax
mappings.
In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses:
1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races
that would typically be handled by the page lock.
2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the
"compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine
the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn.
3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively
accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and
otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.
A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable
for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the
system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.
Specifically the current behavior is:
mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200
{1}[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
{1}[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected

Memory failure: 0x20cb00: Killing dax-pmd:5421 due to hardware memory corruption
Memory failure: 0x20cb00: recovery action for dax page: Recovered

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.
Ref-> commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")
The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and
handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type. As part of that clean up return
type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to
vm_fault_t type.
The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be
change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch.
vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to
allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline. This is
undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is
less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error),
and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good
reason like "system is busy."
Two main changes of this patch are:
- setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done
in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when
freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just
after put_page() returns,
- setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone->lock which protects
freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page
that is decided to be allocated soon.

Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world
writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the
directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose
is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned
on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like
the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's
"HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer.
This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented
by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation:
CVE-2000-1134
CVE-2007-3852
CVE-2008-0525
CVE-2009-0416
CVE-2011-4834
CVE-2015-1838
CVE-2015-7442
CVE-2016-7489
This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all
vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any
mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before
hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite
vehicle to exploit them.

Pull NFS client updates from Anna Schumaker:
"These patches include adding async support for the v4.2 COPY
operation. I think Bruce is planning to send the server patches for
the next release, but I figured we could get the client side out of
the way now since it's been in my tree for a while. This shouldn't
cause any problems, since the server will still respond with
synchronous copies even if the client requests async.
Features:
- Add support for asynchronous server-side COPY operations
Stable bufixes:
- Fix an off-by-one in bl_map_stripe() (v3.17+)
- NFSv4 client live hangs after live data migration recovery (v4.9+)
- xprtrdma: Fix disconnect regression (v4.18+)
- Fix locking in pnfs_generic_recover_commit_reqs (v4.14+)
- Fix a sleep in atomic context in nfs4_callback_sequence() (v4.9+)
Other bugfixes and cleanups:
- Optimizations and fixes involving NFS v4.1 / pNFS layout handling
- Optimize lseek(fd, SEEK_CUR, 0) on directories to avoid locking
- Immediately reschedule writeback when the server replies with an
error
- Fix excessive attribute revalidation in nfs_execute_ok()
- Add error checking to nfs_idmap_prepare_message()
- Use new vm_fault_t return type
- Return a delegation when reclaiming one that the server has
recalled
- Referrals should inherit proto setting from parents
- Make rpc_auth_create_args a const
- Improvements to rpc_iostats tracking
- Fix a potential reference leak when there is an error processing a
callback
- Fix rmdir / mkdir / rename nlink accounting
- Fix updating inode change attribute
- Fix error handling in nfsn4_sp4_select_mode()
- Use an appropriate work queue for direct-write completion
- Don't busy wait if NFSv4 session draining is interrupted"

Commit cafa0010cd51 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6")
recently exposed a brittle part of the build for supporting non-gcc
compilers.
Both Clang and ICC define __GNUC__, __GNUC_MINOR__, and
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ for quick compatibility with code bases that haven't
added compiler specific checks for __clang__ or __INTEL_COMPILER.
This is brittle, as they happened to get compatibility by posing as a
certain version of GCC. This broke when upgrading the minimal version
of GCC required to build the kernel, to a version above what ICC and
Clang claim to be.
Rather than always including compiler-gcc.h then undefining or
redefining macros in compiler-intel.h or compiler-clang.h, let's
separate out the compiler specific macro definitions into mutually
exclusive headers, do more proper compiler detection, and keep shared
definitions in compiler_types.h.

when it established its lease. That information is available from
the GSS context created by gssproxy. Make it available in each

The varable names got a mess, thus standardize them again:
id: user space id. Called semid, shmid, msgid if the type is known.
Most functions use "id" already.
idx: "index" for the idr lookup
Right now, some functions use lid, ipc_addid() already uses idx as
the variable name.
seq: sequence number, to avoid quick collisions of the user space id
key: user space key, used for the rhash tree

In sysvipc we have an ids->tables_initialized regarding the rhashtable,
introduced in 0cfb6aee70bd ("ipc: optimize semget/shmget/msgget for lots
of keys")
It's there, specifically, to prevent nil pointer dereferences, from using
an uninitialized api. Considering how rhashtable_init() can fail
(probably due to ENOMEM, if anything), this made the overall ipc
initialization capable of failure as well. That alone is ugly, but fine,
however I've spotted a few issues regarding the semantics of
tables_initialized (however unlikely they may be):
- There is inconsistency in what we return to userspace: ipc_addid()
returns ENOSPC which is certainly _wrong_, while ipc_obtain_object_idr()
returns EINVAL.
- After we started using rhashtables, ipc_findkey() can return nil upon
!tables_initialized, but the caller expects nil for when the ipc
structure isn't found, and can therefore call into ipcget() callbacks.
Now that rhashtable initialization cannot fail, we can properly get rid of
the hack altogether.

Patch series "signal: refactor some functions", v3.
This series refactors a bunch of functions in signal.c to simplify parts
of the code.
The greatest single change is declaring the static do_sigpending() helper
as void which makes it possible to remove a bunch of unnecessary checks in
the syscalls later on.
This patch (of 17):
force_sigsegv() returned 0 unconditionally so it doesn't make sense to have
it return at all. In addition, there are no callers that check
force_sigsegv()'s return value.

Patch series "add crc64 calculation as kernel library", v5.
This patchset adds basic implementation of crc64 calculation as a Linux
kernel library. Since bcache already does crc64 by itself, this patchset
also modifies bcache code to use the new crc64 library routine.
Currently bcache is the only user of crc64 calculation, another potential
user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore
it makes sense to make crc64 calculation to be a public library.
bcache uses crc64 as storage checksum, if a change of crc lib routines
results an inconsistent result, the unmatched checksum may make bcache
'think' the on-disk is corrupted, such a change should be avoided or
detected as early as possible. Therefore a patch is being prepared which
adds a crc test framework, to check consistency of different calculations.
This patch (of 2):
Add the re-write crc64 calculation routines for Linux kernel. The CRC64
polynomical arithmetic follows ECMA-182 specification, inspired by CRC
paper of Dr. Ross N. Williams (see
http://www.ross.net/crc/download/crc_v3.txt) and other public domain
implementations.
All the changes work in this way,
- When Linux kernel is built, host program lib/gen_crc64table.c will be
compiled to lib/gen_crc64table and executed.
- The output of gen_crc64table execution is an array called as lookup
table (a.k.a POLY 0x42f0e1eba9ea369) which contain 256 64-bit long
numbers, this table is dumped into header file lib/crc64table.h.
- Then the header file is included by lib/crc64.c for normal 64bit crc
calculation.
- Function declaration of the crc64 calculation routines is placed in
include/linux/crc64.h
Currently bcache is the only user of crc64_be(), another potential user is
bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore it makes
sense to move crc64 calculation into lib/crc64.c as public code.

net_dim.h has a rather useful extension to BITS_PER_BYTE to compute the
number of bits in a type (BITS_PER_BYTE * sizeof(T)), so promote the macro
to bitops.h, alongside BITS_PER_BYTE, for wider usage.

To avoid the need for relocating absolute references to tracepoint
structures at boot time when running relocatable kernels (which may
take a disproportionate amount of space), add the option to emit
these tables as relative references instead.

Allow the PCI quirk tables to be emitted in a way that avoids absolute
references to the hook functions. This reduces the size of the entries,
and, more importantly, makes them invariant under runtime relocation
(e.g., for KASLR)

An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries,
each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to
the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively.
When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an
additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte
entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot
time.
Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely
local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL()
itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references
instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all
64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for
architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64)
or using custom host tools (x86).
Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each
section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the
input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch
does not interfere with that.
Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in
the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for
all architectures. So make it dependent on whether
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

To allow existing C code to be incorporated into the decompressor or the
UEFI stub, introduce a CPP macro that turns all EXPORT_SYMBOL_xxx
declarations into nops, and #define it in places where such exports are
undesirable. Note that this gets rid of a rather dodgy redefine of
linux/export.h's header guard.

Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result
hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout. This is fine for
most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups
(syzbot). In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup <
RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall
is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent
machine loss. The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires
setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g. if task
hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins). The
additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because
usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug
localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests.
Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout. This allows to
set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs.
The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl,
similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl. The default value
of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to
timeout.

Appararently, it's possible to have a non-trivial TU include a few
headers, including linux/build_bug.h, without ending up with
linux/types.h. So the 0day bot sent me
config: um-x86_64_defconfig (attached as .config)
>> include/linux/compiler.h:316:3: error: unknown type name 'bool'; did you mean '_Bool'?
bool __cond = !(condition); \
for something I'm working on.
Rather than contributing to the #include madness and including
linux/types.h from compiler.h, just use int.
