8ab3a284a6 um/time: Set ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks
In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.

Make the uml arch's clockevent driver initialize these fields properly.

This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
driver.

9a93848fe7 x86/debug: Implement __WARN() using UD0
By using "UD0" for WARN()s we remove the function call and its possible
__FILE__ and __LINE__ immediate arguments from the instruction stream.

Total image size will not change much, what we win in the instruction
stream we'll lose because of the __bug_table entries. Still, saves on
I$ footprint and the total image size does go down a bit.

17a6e1b8e8 x86/arch_prctl/64: Rename do_arch_prctl() to do_arch_prctl_64()
In order to introduce new arch_prctls that are not 64 bit only, rename the
existing 64 bit implementation to do_arch_prctl_64(). Also rename the
second argument of that function from 'addr' to 'arg2', because it will no
longer always be an address.

If an architecture uses 4level-fixup.h we don't need to do anything as
it includes 5level-fixup.h.

If an architecture uses pgtable-nop*d.h, define __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK
before inclusion of the header. It makes asm-generic code to use
5level-fixup.h.

If an architecture has 4-level paging or folds levels on its own,
include 5level-fixup.h directly.

7d134b2ce6 kprobes: move kprobe declarations to asm-generic/kprobes.h
Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h.  This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers...  instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.

Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not.  Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.

Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution.  This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.

Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch.  The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.

In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.

During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up.  Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION.  This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

b672592f02 sched/cputime: Remove generic asm headers
cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:

	* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
	* s390

And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.

A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
remove include/linux/cputime.h .

642fa448ae sched/core: Remove set_task_state()
This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:

  be628be0956 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")

... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.

However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.

Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().

Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

x86-64 (known to be fast for get_current()/this_cpu_read_stable() caching)
and ppc64 (with paca) show similar improvements in the unlink microbenches.
The small delta for ppc64 (2ms), does not represent the gains on the unlink
runs. In the case of x86, there was a decent amount of variation in the
latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.

f88f0bdfc3 um: UBD Improvements
UBD at present is extremely slow because it handles only
one request at a time in the IO thread and IRQ handler.

The single request at a time is replaced by handling multiple
requests as well as necessary workarounds for short reads/writes.

Resulting performance improvement in disk IO - 30%

692a68c154 mm: remove the page size change check in tlb_remove_page
Now that we check for page size change early in the loop, we can
partially revert e9d55e157034a ("mm: change the interface for
__tlb_remove_page").

This simplies the code much, by removing the need to track the last
address with which we adjusted the range.  We also go back to the older
way of filling the mmu_gather array, ie, we add an entry and then check
whether the gather batch is full.

07e326610e mm: add tlb_remove_check_page_size_change to track page size change
With commit e77b0852b551 ("mm/mmu_gather: track page size with mmu
gather and force flush if page size change") we added the ability to
force a tlb flush when the page size change in a mmu_gather loop.  We
did that by checking for a page size change every time we added a page
to mmu_gather for lazy flush/remove.  We can improve that by moving the
page size change check early and not doing it every time we add a page.

This also helps us to do tlb flush when invalidating a range covering
dax mapping.  Wrt dax mapping we don't have a backing struct page and
hence we don't call tlb_remove_page, which earlier forced the tlb flush
on page size change.  Moving the page size change check earlier means we
will do the same even for dax mapping.

We also avoid doing this check on architecture other than powerpc.

In a later patch we will remove page size check from tlb_remove_page().

   - Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the

     Christian Borntraeger)

   - Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
     clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
     kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)

   - Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)

   - Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
     interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
     get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on

nes:
- set max_mtu
- clean up nes_netdev_change_mtu

xpnet:
- set min/max_mtu
- remove xpnet_dev_change_mtu

hippi:
- set min/max_mtu
- remove hippi_change_mtu

batman-adv:
- set max_mtu
- remove batadv_interface_change_mtu
- initialization is a little async, not 100% certain that max_mtu is set
  in the optimal place, don't have hardware to test with

rionet:
- set min/max_mtu
- remove rionet_change_mtu

slip:
- set min/max_mtu
- streamline sl_change_mtu

um/net_kern:
- remove pointless ndo_change_mtu

hsi/clients/ssi_protocol:
- use core MTU range checking
- remove now redundant ssip_pn_set_mtu

ipoib:
- set a default max MTU value
- Note: ipoib's actual max MTU can vary, depending on if the device is in
  connected mode or not, so we'll just set the max_mtu value to the max
  possible, and let the ndo_change_mtu function continue to validate any new
  MTU change requests with checks for CM or not. Note that ipoib has no
  min_mtu set, and thus, the network core's mtu > 0 check is the only lower
  bounds here.

mptlan:
- use net core MTU range checking
- remove now redundant mpt_lan_change_mtu

fddi:
- min_mtu = 21, max_mtu = 4470
- remove now redundant fddi_change_mtu (including export)

fjes:
- min_mtu = 8192, max_mtu = 65536
- The max_mtu value is actually one over IP_MAX_MTU here, but the idea is to
  get past the core net MTU range checks so fjes_change_mtu can validate a
  new MTU against what it supports (see fjes_support_mtu in fjes_hw.c)

hsr:
- min_mtu = 0 (calls ether_setup, max_mtu is 1500)

f_phonet:
- min_mtu = 6, max_mtu = 65541

u_ether:
- min_mtu = 14, max_mtu = 15412

phonet/pep-gprs:
- min_mtu = 576, max_mtu = 65530
- remove redundant gprs_set_mtu

6727ad9e20 nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus
When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.

This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.

972939e285 um/ptrace: Fix the syscall_trace_leave call
Keep the same semantic as before the commit 26703c636c1f: deallocate
audit context and fake a proper syscall exit.

This fix a kernel panic triggered by the seccomp_bpf test:
> [ RUN      ] global.ERRNO_valid
> BUG: failure at kernel/auditsc.c:1504/__audit_syscall_entry()!
> Kernel panic - not syncing: BUG!

d6a38c0ba7 miscdevice: Use module_misc_device() macro
This patch removes module_init()/module_exit() from driver code by using
module_misc_device() macro. All modules in this patch has a print
statement which is removed when module_misc_device() macro is used.
If undesirable this patch can be dropped entirely, this is the only
purpose of making this as a separate patch.

dad2232844 um: Don't discard .text.exit section
Commit e41f501d3912 ("vmlinux.lds: account for destructor sections")
added '.text.exit' to EXIT_TEXT which is discarded at link time by default.
This breaks compilation of UML:
     `.text.exit' referenced in section `.fini_array' of
     /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o):
     defined in discarded section `.text.exit' of
     /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o)

Apparently UML doesn't want to discard exit text, so let's place all EXIT_TEXT
sections in .exit.text.

915eed20e4 um: Support kcov
This adds support for kcov to UML.

There is a small problem where UML will randomly segfault during boot;
this is because current_thread_info() occasionally returns an invalid
(non-NULL) pointer and we try to dereference it in
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(). I consider this a bug in UML itself and this
patch merely exposes it.

[v2: disable instrumentation in UML-specific code]

Instead proving its own arch_local_irq_save() and arch_irqs_disabled()
version use the generic version from asm-generic/irqflags.h.

A nice side effect is that um gets a few additional arch_ functions
as well.

b63236972e um: Setup physical memory in setup_arch()
Currently UML sets up physical memory very early,
long before setup_arch() was called by the kernel main
function.
This can cause problems when code paths in UML's memory setup
code assume that the kernel is already running.
i.e. when kmemleak is enabled it will evaluate current()
in free_bootmem(). That early current() is undefined and
UML explodes.

Solve the problem by setting up physical memory in setup_arch(),
at this stage the kernel has materialized and basic infrastructure
such as current() works.
