After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it
seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of
today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that
there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.
This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported <asm/kvm_para.h> to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.
We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support
[B] Match the header export of <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h>
to the KVM support
My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].
So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, <asm/kvm_para.h> was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.
After this commit, there will be two groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86
[2] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,
nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensa

The time, stime, utime, utimes, and futimesat system calls are only
used on older architectures, and we do not provide y2038 safe variants
of them, as they are replaced by clock_gettime64, clock_settime64,
and utimensat_time64.
However, for consistency it seems better to have the 32-bit architectures
that still use them call the "time32" entry points (leaving the
traditional handlers for the 64-bit architectures), like we do for system
calls that now require two versions.
Note: We used to always define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME and
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME and only set __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_TIME and
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 for compat mode on 64-bit kernels. Now this is
reversed: only 64-bit architectures set __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME/UTIME, while
we need __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME32/UTIME32 for 32-bit architectures and compat
mode. The resulting asm/unistd.h changes look a bit counterintuitive.
This is only a cleanup patch and it should not change any behavior.

Most architectures define system call numbers for the rseq and pkey system
calls, even when they don't support the features, and perhaps never will.
Only a few architectures are missing these, so just define them anyway
for consistency. If we decide to add them later to one of these, the
system call numbers won't get out of sync then.

Every in-kernel use of this function defined it to KERNEL_DS (either as
an actual define, or as an inline function). It's an entirely
historical artifact, and long long long ago used to actually read the
segment selector valueof '%ds' on x86.
Which in the kernel is always KERNEL_DS.
Inspired by a patch from Jann Horn that just did this for a very small
subset of users (the ones in fs/), along with Al who suggested a script.
I then just took it to the logical extreme and removed all the remaining
gunk.
Roughly scripted with
git grep -l '(get_ds())' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i 's/(get_ds())/(KERNEL_DS)/'
git grep -lw 'get_ds' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i '/^#define get_ds()/d'
plus manual fixups to remove a few unusual usage patterns, the couple of
inline function cases and to fix up a comment that had become stale.
The 'get_ds()' function remains in an x86 kvm selftest, since in user
space it actually does something relevant.

Patch series "Add support for fast mremap".
This series speeds up the mremap(2) syscall by copying page tables at
the PMD level even for non-THP systems. There is concern that the extra
'address' argument that mremap passes to pte_alloc may do something
subtle architecture related in the future that may make the scheme not
work. Also we find that there is no point in passing the 'address' to
pte_alloc since its unused. This patch therefore removes this argument
tree-wide resulting in a nice negative diff as well. Also ensuring
along the way that the enabled architectures do not do anything funky
with the 'address' argument that goes unnoticed by the optimization.
Build and boot tested on x86-64. Build tested on arm64. The config
enablement patch for arm64 will be posted in the future after more
testing.
The changes were obtained by applying the following Coccinelle script.
(thanks Julia for answering all Coccinelle questions!).
Following fix ups were done manually:
* Removal of address argument from pte_fragment_alloc
* Removal of pte_alloc_one_fast definitions from m68k and microblaze.

These two architectures actually had an intentional use of the 'type'
argument to access_ok() just to avoid warnings.
I had actually noticed the powerpc one, but forgot to then fix it up.
And I missed the sparc32 case entirely.
This is hopefully all of it.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull DMA mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
"A huge update this time, but a lot of that is just consolidating or
removing code:
- provide a common DMA_MAPPING_ERROR definition and avoid indirect
calls for dma_map_* error checking
- use direct calls for the DMA direct mapping case, avoiding huge
retpoline overhead for high performance workloads
- merge the swiotlb dma_map_ops into dma-direct
- provide a generic remapping DMA consistent allocator for
architectures that have devices that perform DMA that is not cache
coherent. Based on the existing arm64 implementation and also used
for csky now.
- improve the dma-debug infrastructure, including dynamic allocation
of entries (Robin Murphy)
- default to providing chaining scatterlist everywhere, with opt-outs
for the few architectures (alpha, parisc, most arm32 variants) that
can't cope with it
- misc sparc32 dma-related cleanups
- remove the dma_mark_clean arch hook used by swiotlb on ia64 and
replace it with the generic noncoherent infrastructure
- fix the return type of dma_set_max_seg_size (Niklas Söderlund)
- move the dummy dma ops for not DMA capable devices from arm64 to
common code (Robin Murphy)
- ensure dma_alloc_coherent returns zeroed memory to avoid kernel
data leaks through userspace. We already did this for most common
architectures, but this ensures we do it everywhere.
dma_zalloc_coherent has been deprecated and can hopefully be
removed after -rc1 with a coccinelle script"

Avoid expensive indirect calls in the fast path DMA mapping
operations by directly calling the dma_direct_* ops if we are using
the directly mapped DMA operations.

There are enough common defintions that a single header seems nicer.
Also drop the pointless <linux/dma-mapping.h> include.

There is no good reason to have a double indirection for the sparc32
dma ops, so remove the sparc32_dma_ops and define separate dma_map_ops
instance for the different IOMMU types.

System call table generation script must be run to gener-
ate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32.h files.
This patch will have changes which will invokes the script.
This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table-
_32/64/c32.h files by the syscall table generation script
invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files against
the removed files must be identical.
The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/-
asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file
will be included by kernel/systbls_32/64.S file.

NR_syscalls macro holds the number of system call exist
in sparc architecture. We have to change the value of NR-
_syscalls, if we add or delete a system call.
One of the patch in this patch series has a script which
will generate a uapi header based on syscall.tbl file.
The syscall.tbl file contains the total number of system
calls information. So we have two option to update NR_sy-
scalls value.
1. Update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h manually by count-
ing the no.of system calls. No need to update NR_sys-
calls until we either add a new system call or delete
existing system call.
2. We can keep this feature it above mentioned script,
that will count the number of syscalls and keep it in
a generated file. In this case we don't need to expli-
citly update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h file.
The 2nd option will be the recommended one. For that, I
added the __NR_syscalls macro in uapi/asm/unistd.h along
with NR_syscalls asm/unistd.h. The macro __NR_syscalls
also added for making the name convention same across all
architecture. While __NR_syscalls isn't strictly part of
the uapi, having it as part of the generated header to
simplifies the implementation. We also need to enclose
this macro with #ifdef __KERNEL__ to avoid side effects.

All the __IGNORE* entries are resides in the uapi header
file move to non uapi header asm/unistd.h as it is not
used by any user space applications.
It is correct to keep __IGNORE* entry in non uapi header
asm/unistd.h while uapi/asm/unistd.h must hold information
only useful for user space applications.
One of the patch in this patch series will generate uapi
header file. The information which directly used by the
user space application must be present in uapi file.

Prefer _THIS_IP_ defined in linux/kernel.h.
Most definitions of current_text_addr were the same as _THIS_IP_, but
a few archs had inline assembly instead.
This patch removes the final call site of current_text_addr, making all
of the definitions dead code.

Right now if we get a corrupted user stack frame we do a
do_exit(SIGILL) which is not helpful.
If under a debugger, this behavior causes the inferior process to
exit. So the register and other state cannot be examined at the time
of the event.
Instead, conditionally log a rate limited kernel log message and then
force a SIGSEGV.
With bits and ideas borrowed (as usual) from powerpc.

Pull Devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
"A bit bigger than normal as I've been busy this cycle.
There's a few things with dependencies and a few things subsystem
maintainers didn't pick up, so I'm taking them thru my tree.
The fixes from Johan didn't get into linux-next, but they've been
waiting for some time now and they are what's left of what subsystem
maintainers didn't pick up.
Summary:
- Sync dtc with upstream version v1.4.7-14-gc86da84d30e4
- Work to get rid of direct accesses to struct device_node name and
type pointers in preparation for removing them. New helpers for
parsing DT cpu nodes and conversions to use the helpers. printk
conversions to %pOFn for printing DT node names. Most went thru
subystem trees, so this is the remainder.
- Fixes to DT child node lookups to actually be restricted to child
nodes instead of treewide.
- Refactoring of dtb targets out of arch code. This makes the support
more uniform and enables building all dtbs on c6x, microblaze, and
powerpc.
- Various DT binding updates for Renesas r8a7744 SoC
- Vendor prefixes for Facebook, OLPC
- Restructuring of some ARM binding docs moving some peripheral
bindings out of board/SoC binding files

Only some old OpenFirmware implementations rely on default sizes. Any
FDT and modern implementation should have explicit properties. Make the
OF_ROOT_NODE_*_CELLS_DEFAULT defines private so we don't get any outside

This also gets us one step closer to removing the asm/prom.h dependency on

Older versions of bintutils do not allow symbol math across different
segments on sparc:
====================
Assembler messages:
99: Error: operation combines symbols in different segments
====================
This is controlled by whether or not DIFF_EXPR_OK is defined in
gas/config/tc-*.h and for sparc this was not the case until mid-2017.
So we have to patch between %stick and %tick another way.
Do what powerpc does and emit two versions of the relevant functions,
one using %tick and one using %stick, and patch the symbols in the
dynamic symbol table.

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.

The sys_llseek sytem call is needed on all 32-bit architectures and
none of the 64-bit ones, so we can remove the __ARCH_WANT_SYS_LLSEEK guard
and simplify the include/asm-generic/unistd.h header further.
Since 32-bit tasks can run either natively or in compat mode on 64-bit
architectures, we have to check for both !CONFIG_64BIT and CONFIG_COMPAT.
There are a few 64-bit architectures that also reference sys_llseek
in their 64-bit ABI (e.g. sparc), but I verified that those all
select CONFIG_COMPAT, so the #if check is still correct here. It's
a bit odd to include it in the syscall table though, as it's the
same as sys_lseek() on 64-bit, but with strange calling conventions.

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.

We have four generations of stat() syscalls:
- the oldstat syscalls that are only used on the older architectures
- the newstat family that is used on all 64-bit architectures but
lacked support for large files on 32-bit architectures.
- the stat64 family that is used mostly on 32-bit architectures to
replace newstat
- statx() to replace all of the above, adding 64-bit timestamps among
other things.
We already compile stat64 only on those architectures that need it,
but newstat is always built, including on those that don't reference
it. This adds a new __ARCH_WANT_NEW_STAT symbol along the lines of
__ARCH_WANT_OLD_STAT and __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 to control compilation of
newstat. All architectures that need it use an explict define, the
others now get a little bit smaller, and future architecture (including
64-bit targets) won't ever see it.

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

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.

There should be no undefined symbols in the resulting VDSO image(s).
On sparc, fixed register usage can result in undefined symbols ending
up in the image. To combat this, we do two things:
1) Define current_thread_info() specially when BUILD_DSO.
2) Ignore "#scratch" register undefined symbols in the output.

The current VDSO patch mechanism has several problems:
1) It assumes how gcc will emit a function, with a register
window, an initial save instruction and then immediately
the %tick read when compiling vread_tick().
There is no such guarantees, code generation could change
at any time, gcc could put a nop between the save and
the %tick read, etc.
So this is extremely fragile and would fail some day.
2) It disallows us to properly inline vread_tick() into the callers
and thus get the best possible code sequences.
So fix this to patch properly, with location based annotations.
We have to be careful because we cannot do it the way we do
patches elsewhere in the kernel. Those use a sequence like:
1:
insn
.section .whatever_patch, "ax"
.word 1b
replacement_insn
.previous
This is a dynamic shared object, so that .word cannot be resolved at
build time, and thus cannot be used to execute the patches when the
kernel initializes the images.
Even trying to use label difference equations doesn't work in the
above kind of scheme:
1:
insn
.section .whatever_patch, "ax"
.word . - 1b
replacement_insn
.previous
The assembler complains that it cannot resolve that computation.
The issue is that this is contained in an executable section.
Borrow the sequence used by x86 alternatives, which is:
1:
insn
.pushsection .whatever_patch, "a"
.word . - 1b, . - 1f
.popsection
.pushsection .whatever_patch_replacements, "ax"
1:
replacement_insn
.previous
This works, allows us to inline vread_tick() as much as we like, and
can be used for arbitrary kinds of VDSO patching in the future.
Also, reverse the condition for patching. Most systems are %stick
based, so if we only patch on %tick systems the patching code will
get little or no testing.
