Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt.
2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers
can support hw switch offloading. From Floria Fainelli.
3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave,
from Madhu Challa.
4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck.
5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel
Borkmann.
6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25,
rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to
implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman.
7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman.
8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed
up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck.
9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation,
from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where
an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty
table, we expand the table much more sanely.
10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric
Biederman.
11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov.
12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be
established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since
hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to
go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed
underneath. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk.
14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From
Hannes Frederic Sowa.
15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic
Sowa.

This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips,
powerpc, and x86. The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from
the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as
well (mmap), and vice versa. Further details and a PoC of this attack
is available here:
http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html
With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR
region:

The change is to add a call the newly created arch_mmap_rnd() into the
ELF loader for handling ET_DYN ASLR in a separate region from mmap ASLR,
as was already done on s390. Removes CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE,
which is no longer needed.

When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location,
a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base.
In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries
separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as
arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE
for describing this feature on architectures that support it
(which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390
already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the
ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

The hard lockup detector uses a PMU event as a periodic NMI to
detect if we are stuck (where stuck means no timer interrupts have
occurred).
Ben's rework of the ppc64 soft disable code has made ppc64 PMU
exceptions a partial NMI. They can get disabled if an external
interrupt comes in, but otherwise PMU interrupts will fire in
interrupt disabled regions.
We disable the hard lockup detector by default for a few reasons:
- It breaks userspace event based branches on POWER8.
- It is likely to produce false positives on KVM guests.
- Since PMCs can only count to 2^31, counting cycles means we might
take multiple PMU exceptions per second per hardware thread even
if our hard lockup timeout is 10 seconds.
It can be enabled via a boot option, or via procfs.

We have set CONFIG_PPC_OF to always 'y' in commit 0a498d96a332
("powerpc: set CONFIG_PPC_OF=y always for ARCH=powerpc") nine years
ago. And the arch/ppc also has gone away for many years. The OF
functionality was also moved to a common place and be used by many
archs. So it does make no sense to keep such a option in the current
kernel. Just kill it.

arch/powerpc has __kernel_map_pages implementations in mm/pgtable_32.c, and
mm/hash_utils_64.c, of which the former is built for PPC32, and the latter
for PPC64 machines with PPC_STD_MMU. Fix arch/powerpc/Kconfig to not select
ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC when CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 isn't defined,
i.e., for 64-bit book3e builds to use the generic __kernel_map_pages()
in mm/debug-pagealloc.c.

Following the suggestions from Andrew Morton and Stephen Rothwell,
Dont expand the ARCH list in kernel/gcov/Kconfig. Instead,
define a ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL bool which architectures
can enable.
set ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL on Architectures where it was
previously allowed + ARM64 which I tested.

Back in 2009 we merged 501cb16d3cfd "Randomise PIEs", which added support for
randomizing PIE (Position Independent Executable) binaries.
That commit added randomize_et_dyn(), which correctly randomized the addresses,
but failed to honor PF_RANDOMIZE. That means it was not possible to disable PIE
randomization via the personality flag, or /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space.
Since then there has been generic support for PIE randomization added to
binfmt_elf.c, selectable via ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE.
Enabling that allows us to drop randomize_et_dyn(), which means we start
honoring PF_RANDOMIZE correctly.
It also causes a fairly major change to how we layout PIE binaries.
Currently we will place the binary at 512MB-520MB for 32 bit binaries, or
512MB-1.5GB for 64 bit binaries, eg:
$ cat /proc/$$/maps
4e550000-4e580000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash

3ffffc340000-3ffffc370000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
With this commit applied we don't do any special randomisation for the binary,
and instead rely on mmap randomisation. This means the binary ends up at high
addresses, eg:
$ cat /proc/$$/maps
3fff99820000-3fff999d0000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so

3fffc55e0000-3fffc5610000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap]
Although this should be OK, it's possible it might break badly written
binaries that make assumptions about the address space layout.

Enable on DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS on ppc64le. It should work on
ppc64 and ppc32 but we need to do some testing first.
A somewhat reasonable testcase used to show the performance
improvement - a repeated stat of a 33 byte filename that
doesn't exist:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#define ITERATIONS 10000000
#define PATH "123456781234567812345678123456781"
int main(void)
{
unsigned long i;
struct stat buf;
for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++)
stat(PATH, &buf);
return 0;
}
runs 27% faster on POWER8.

Fix ppc 32 build failure as reported here:
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/11663513/
The error is as follows:
arch/powerpc/include/asm/floppy.h:142:20: error: 'isa_bridge_pcidev' undeclared
(first use in this function)
This is happening since floppy.o is enabled by BLK_DEV_FD which depends on
ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC which is in-turn enabled if PPC_PSERIES=n.
The following commit changes the dependency so that ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC is
dependent exclusively on PCI since otherwise it will not compile.

Load purgatory code in RAM and relocate it based on the location.
Relocation code has been inspired by module relocation code and purgatory
relocation code in kexec-tools.
Also compute the checksums of loaded kexec segments and store them in
purgatory.
Arch independent code provides this functionality so that arch dependent
bootloaders can make use of it.
Helper functions are provided to get/set symbol values in purgatory which
are used by bootloaders later to set things like stack and entry point of
second kernel etc.

this is found to not be true for at least: parisc, sparc32, tile32,

There is further wreckage, but this in particular seemed easy to

A number of attempts to fix the problem by moving around code have been
unsuccessful and resulted in failed builds for some configurations and
the discovery of toolchain bugs.
Fix the problem by disabling RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST builds instead.
While this is less than perfect, it avoids substantial code changes
which would otherwise be necessary just to make COMPILE_TEST builds

It adds support for the "fast sleep" feature of the processor which

Pull main powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"This time around, the powerpc merges are going to be a little bit more
complicated than usual.
This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge
window. I will describe it a bit more further down.
There is some additional cpuidle driver work, however I haven't
included it in this tree as it depends on some work in tip/timer-core
which Thomas accidentally forgot to put in a topic branch. Since I
didn't want to carry all of that tip timer stuff in powerpc -next, I
setup a separate branch on top of Thomas tree with just that cpuidle
driver in it, and Stephen has been carrying that in next separately
for a while now. I'll send a separate pull request for it.
Additionally, two new pieces in this tree add users for a sysfs API
that Tejun and Greg have been deprecating in drivers-core-next.
Thankfully Greg reverted the patch that removes the old API so this
merge can happen cleanly, but once merged, I will send a patch
adjusting our new code to the new API so that Greg can send you the
removal patch.
Now as for the content of this branch, we have a lot of perf work for
power8 new counters including support for our new "nest" counters
(also called 24x7) under pHyp (not natively yet).
We have new functionality when running under the OPAL firmware
(non-virtualized or KVM host), such as access to the firmware error
logs and service processor dumps, system parameters and sensors, along
with a hwmon driver for the latter.
There's also a bunch of bug fixes accross the board, some LE fixes,
and a nice set of selftests for validating our various types of copy
loops.
On the Freescale side, we see mostly new chip/board revisions, some
clock updates, better support for machine checks and debug exceptions,
etc..."

Fast sleep is one of the deep idle states on Power8 in which local timers of
CPUs stop. On PowerPC we do not have an external clock device which can
handle wakeup of such CPUs. Now that we have the support in the tick broadcast

for fast sleep, enable it in the cpuidle framework on PowerNV.

drivers/mtd/nand/fsl_ifc_nand.c:1069: undefined reference to `fsl_ifc_ctrl_dev'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
This happens because there is nothing to descend us into the
drivers/memory directory in the mpc85xx_defconfig. It wasn't
selecting CONFIG_MEMORY. So we never built drivers/memory/fsl_ifc.o
and so we have nothing to link the above symbols against.
Since the goal of the original commit was to relocate the driver to
an arch independent location, it only makes sense to relocate the
Kconfig setting there as well. But that alone won't fix the build
failure; for that we ensure whoever selects FSL_IFC also selects MEMORY.

This commit adds the architecture support required to enable the
optimised implementation of lockrefs.
That's as simple as defining arch_spin_value_unlocked() and selecting
the Kconfig option.
We also define cmpxchg64_relaxed(), because the lockref code does not
need the cmpxchg to have barrier semantics.
Using Linus' test case[1] on one system I see a 4x improvement for the
basic enablement, and a further 1.3x for cmpxchg64_relaxed(), for a
total of 5.3x vs the baseline.
On another system I see more like 2x improvement.

Allow modular build option for RapidIO subsystem core in MIPS and PowerPC
architectural branches.
At this moment modular RapidIO subsystem build is enabled only for
platforms that use PCI/PCIe based RapidIO controllers (e.g. Tsi721).

...and make CONFIG_PPC_FSL_BOOK3E conflict with CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES.
This fixes a build break with CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES on 64-bit book3e,
that was introduced by commit 28efc35fe68dacbddc4b12c2fa8f2df1593a4ad3
("powerpc/e6500: TLB miss handler with hardware tablewalk support").

the setup before the change was
- arch/powerpc/Kconfig had the PPC_CLOCK option, off by default
- depending on the PPC_CLOCK option the arch/powerpc/kernel/clock.c file
was built, which implements the clk.h API but always returns -ENOSYS
unless a platform registers specific callbacks
- the MPC52xx platform selected PPC_CLOCK but did not register any
callbacks, thus all clk.h API calls keep resulting in -ENOSYS errors
(which is OK, all peripheral drivers deal with the situation)
- the MPC512x platform selected PPC_CLOCK and registered specific
callbacks implemented in arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/clock.c, thus
provided real support for the clock API
- no other powerpc platform did select PPC_CLOCK
the situation after the change is
- the MPC512x platform implements the COMMON_CLK interface, and thus the
PPC_CLOCK approach in arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/clock.c has become
obsolete
- the MPC52xx platform still lacks genuine support for the clk.h API
while this is not a change against the previous situation (the error
code returned from COMMON_CLK stubs differs but every call still
results in an error)
- with all references gone, the arch/powerpc/kernel/clock.c wrapper and
the PPC_CLOCK option have become obsolete, as did the clk_interface.h
header file
the switch from PPC_CLOCK to COMMON_CLK is done for all platforms within
the same commit such that multiplatform kernels (the combination of 512x
and 52xx within one executable) keep working

The RELOCATABLE is more flexible and without any alignment restriction.
And it is a superset of DYNAMIC_MEMSTART. So use it by default for
a kdump kernel.

This is based on the codes in the head_44x.S. The difference is that
the init tlb size we used is 64M. With this patch we can only load the
kernel at address between memstart_addr ~ memstart_addr + 64M. We will
fix this restriction in the following patches.
