Using the ksys_ftruncate() wrapper allows us to get rid of in-kernel
calls to the sys_ftruncate() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this
function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In
particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_ftruncate().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

The non-compat codepaths for sys_...msg() verify that MSG_CMSG_COMPAT
is not set. By moving this check to the __sys_...msg() functions
(and making it dependent on a static flag passed to this function), we
can call the __sys...msg() functions instead of the syscall functions
in all cases. __sys_recvmmsg() does not need this trickery, as the
check is handled within the do_sys_recvmmsg() function internal to
net/socket.c.

sys_futex() is a wrapper to do_futex() which does not modify any

- uaddr, val and val3 are kept the same
- op is masked with FUTEX_CMD_MASK, but is always set to FUTEX_WAKE.
Therefore, val2 is always 0.
- as utime is set to NULL, *timeout is NULL

The syscall entry points to the kernel defined by SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
and COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() should only be called from userspace
through kernel entry points, but not from the kernel itself. This
will allow cleanups and optimizations to the entry paths *and* to
the parts of the kernel code which currently need to pretend to be
userspace in order to make use of syscalls.

Pull sigingo fix from Eric Biederman:
"The kbuild test robot found that I accidentally moved si_pkey when I
was cleaning up siginfo_t. A short followed by an int with the int
having 8 byte alignment. Sheesh siginfo_t is a weird structure.
I have now corrected it and added build time checks that with a little
luck will catch any similar future mistakes. The build time checks
were sufficient for me to verify the bug and to verify my fix. So they
are at least useful this once."

|
|
The change moving addr_lsb into the _sigfault union failed to take
into account that _sigfault._addr_bnd._lower being a pointer forced
the entire union to have pointer alignment. In practice this only
mattered for the offset of si_pkey which is why this has taken so long
to discover.
To correct this change _dummy_pkey and _dummy_bnd to have pointer type.

Since commit 4670d610d592 ("PCI: Move OF-related PCI functions into
PCI core"), sparc:allmodconfig fails to build with the following error.
pcie-cadence-host.c:(.text+0x4c4): undefined reference to `of_irq_parse_and_map_pci'
pcie-cadence-host.c:(.text+0x4c8): undefined reference to `of_irq_parse_and_map_pci'
of_irq_parse_and_map_pci() is now only available if OF_IRQ is enabled.
Make its declaration and its dummy function dependent on OF_IRQ to solve
the problem.

They're very hard to use properly as they do not consider the
GSO_BY_FRAGS case. Code should use skb_gso_validate_network_len
and skb_gso_validate_mac_len as they do consider this case.
Make the seglen functions static, which stops people using them
outside of skbuff.c

If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the network
length (L3 headers + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small
enough to fit within a given MTU?
skb_gso_validate_mtu gives you the answer to that question. However,
we recently added to add a way to validate the MAC length of a split GSO
skb (L2+L3+L4+payload), and the names get confusing, so rename
skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"A 4.16 regression fix, three fixes for -stable, and a cleanup fix:
- During the merge window support for the new ACPI NVDIMM Platform
Capabilities structure disabled support for "deep flush", a
force-unit- access like mechanism for persistent memory. Restore
that mechanism.
- VFIO like RDMA is yet one more memory registration / pinning
interface that is incompatible with Filesystem-DAX. Disable long
term pins of Filesystem-DAX mappings via VFIO.
- The Filesystem-DAX detection to prevent long terms pins mistakenly
also disabled Device-DAX pins which are not subject to the same
block- map collision concerns.
- Similar to the setup path, softlockup warnings can trigger in the
shutdown path for large persistent memory namespaces. Teach
for_each_device_pfn() to perform cond_resched() in all cases.
- Boaz noticed that the might_sleep() in dax_direct_access() is stale
as of the v4.15 kernel.
These have received a build success notification from the 0day robot,
and the longterm pin fixes have appeared in -next. However, I recently
rebased the tree to remove some other fixes that need to be reworked
after review feedback.

Commit 5905429ad856 ("fork: Provide usercopy whitelisting for
task_struct") noted that:
"While the blocked and saved_sigmask fields of task_struct are copied to
userspace (via sigmask_to_save() and setup_rt_frame()), it is always
copied with a static length (i.e. sizeof(sigset_t))."
However, this is not true in the case of compat signals, whose sigset
is copied by put_compat_sigset and receives size as an argument.
At most call sites, put_compat_sigset is copying a sigset from the
current task_struct. This triggers a warning when
CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is active. However, by marking this function as
static inline, the warning can be avoided because in all of these cases
the size is constant at compile time, which is allowed. The only site
where this is not the case is handling the rt_sigpending syscall, but
there the copy is being made from a stack local variable so does not
trigger the warning.
Move put_compat_sigset to compat.h, and mark it static inline. This
fixes the WARN on MIPS.

Some required information is not exposed to userspace currently (eg. the
PASID), pass this information back, along with other information which
is currently communicated via sysfs, which saves some parsing effort in
