f70029bbaa mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE
Commit 20b2f52b73 ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for
movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a
good explanation on why it is actually useful.

It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we
already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on
the kernel command line.  A config option on top only makes the
configuration space larger without a good reason.  It also adds an
additional ifdefery that pollutes the code.

Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled.  This
shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

7660a6fddc mm: allow slab_nomerge to be set at build time
Some hardened environments want to build kernels with slab_nomerge
already set (so that they do not depend on remembering to set the kernel
command line option).  This is desired to reduce the risk of kernel heap
overflows being able to overwrite objects from merged caches and changes
the requirements for cache layout control, increasing the difficulty of
these attacks.  By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits can
usually only damage objects in the same cache (though the risk to
metadata exploitation is unchanged).

e24dd9ee53 Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull security layer updates from James Morris:

 - a major update for AppArmor. From JJ:

     * several bug fixes and cleanups

     * the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated
       on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of
       securityfs symlinks

     * it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been
       carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it
       converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling
       base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally
       will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide
       a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries.

     * This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation
       features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that
       Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top
       of this.

 - Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map
   permission. From Paul:

      "While we're down to 21 patches for v4.13 (it was 31 for v4.12),
       the diffstat jumps up tremendously with over 2k of line changes.

       Almost all of these changes are the SELinux/IB work done by
       Daniel Jurgens; some other noteworthy changes include a NFS v4.2
       labeling fix, a new file:map permission, and reporting of policy
       capabilities on policy load"

   There's also now genfscon labeling support for tracefs, which was
   lost in v4.1 with the separation from debugfs.

 - Smack incorporates a safer socket check in file_receive, and adds a
   cap_capable call in privilege check.

 - TPM as usual has a bunch of fixes and enhancements.

 - Multiple calls to security_add_hooks() can now be made for the same
   LSM, to allow LSMs to have hook declarations across multiple files.

 - IMA now supports different "ima_appraise=" modes (eg. log, fix) from
   the boot command line.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The big ticket items here are the rework of suspend-to-idle in order
  to add proper support for power button wakeup from it on recent Dell
  laptops and the rework of interfaces exporting the current CPU
  frequency on x86.

  In addition to that, support for a few new pieces of hardware is
  added, the PCI/ACPI device wakeup infrastructure is simplified
  significantly and the wakeup IRQ framework is fixed to unbreak the IRQ
  bus locking infrastructure.

  Also, there are some functional improvements for intel_pstate, tools
  updates and small fixes and cleanups all over.

  Specifics:

   - Rework suspend-to-idle to allow it to take wakeup events signaled
     by the EC into account on ACPI-based platforms in order to properly
     support power button wakeup from suspend-to-idle on recent Dell
     laptops (Rafael Wysocki).

     That includes the core suspend-to-idle code rework, support for the
     Low Power S0 _DSM interface, and support for the ACPI INT0002
     Virtual GPIO device from Hans de Goede (required for USB keyboard
     wakeup from suspend-to-idle to work on some machines).

   - Stop trying to export the current CPU frequency via /proc/cpuinfo
     on x86 as that is inaccurate and confusing (Len Brown).

   - Rework the way in which the current CPU frequency is exported by
     the kernel (over the cpufreq sysfs interface) on x86 systems with
     the APERF and MPERF registers by always using values read from
     these registers, when available, to compute the current frequency
     regardless of which cpufreq driver is in use (Len Brown).

   - Rework the PCI/ACPI device wakeup infrastructure to remove the
     questionable and artificial distinction between "devices that can
     wake up the system from sleep states" and "devices that can
     generate wakeup signals in the working state" from it, which allows
     the code to be simplified quite a bit (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix the wakeup IRQ framework by making it use SRCU instead of RCU
     which doesn't allow sleeping in the read-side critical sections,
     but which in turn is expected to be allowed by the IRQ bus locking
     infrastructure (Thomas Gleixner).

   - Modify some computations in the intel_pstate driver to avoid
     rounding errors resulting from them (Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Reduce the overhead of the intel_pstate driver in the HWP
     (hardware-managed P-states) mode and when the "performance" P-state
     selection algorithm is in use by making it avoid registering
     scheduler callbacks in those cases (Len Brown).

   - Rework the energy_performance_preference sysfs knob in intel_pstate
     by changing the values that correspond to different symbolic hint
     names used by it (Len Brown).

   - Make it possible to use more than one cpuidle driver at the same
     time on ARM (Daniel Lezcano).

   - Make it possible to prevent the cpuidle menu governor from using
     the 0 state by disabling it via sysfs (Nicholas Piggin).

   - Add support for FFH (Fixed Functional Hardware) MWAIT in ACPI C1 on
     AMD systems (Yazen Ghannam).

   - Make the CPPC cpufreq driver take the lowest nonlinear performance
     information into account (Prashanth Prakash).

   - Add support for hi3660 to the cpufreq-dt driver, fix the imx6q
     driver and clean up the sfi, exynos5440 and intel_pstate drivers
     (Colin Ian King, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Octavian Purdila, Rafael
     Wysocki, Tao Wang).

   - Fix a few minor issues in the generic power domains (genpd)
     framework and clean it up somewhat (Krzysztof Kozlowski, Mikko
     Perttunen, Viresh Kumar).

   - Fix a couple of minor issues in the operating performance points
     (OPP) framework and clean it up somewhat (Viresh Kumar).

   - Fix a CONFIG dependency in the hibernation core and clean it up
     slightly (Balbir Singh, Arvind Yadav, BaoJun Luo).

   - Add rk3228 support to the rockchip-io adaptive voltage scaling
     (AVS) driver (David Wu).

   - Fix an incorrect bit shift operation in the RAPL power capping
     driver (Adam Lessnau).

   - Add support for the EPP field in the HWP (hardware managed
     P-states) control register, HWP.EPP, to the x86_energy_perf_policy
     tool and update msr-index.h with HWP.EPP values (Len Brown).

   - Fix some minor issues in the turbostat tool (Len Brown).

   - Add support for AMD family 0x17 CPUs to the cpupower tool and fix a
     minor issue in it (Sherry Hurwitz).

   - Assorted cleanups, mostly related to the constification of some
     data structures (Arvind Yadav, Joe Perches, Kees Cook, Krzysztof
     Kozlowski)"

fab24dcc39 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Clean up after performance governor changes
After commit 82b4e03e01 (intel_pstate: skip scheduler hook when in
"performance" mode) get_target_pstate_use_performance() and
get_target_pstate_use_cpu_load() are never called if scaling_governor
is "performance", so drop the CPUFREQ_POLICY_PERFORMANCE checks from
them as they will never trigger anyway.

Moreover, the documentation needs to be updated to reflect the change
made by the above commit, so do that too.

503ceaef8e ima: define a set of appraisal rules requiring file signatures
The builtin "ima_appraise_tcb" policy should require file signatures for
at least a few of the hooks (eg. kernel modules, firmware, and the kexec
kernel image), but changing it would break the existing userspace/kernel
ABI.

This patch defines a new builtin policy named "secure_boot", which
can be specified on the "ima_policy=" boot command line, independently
or in conjunction with the "ima_appraise_tcb" policy, by specifing
ima_policy="appraise_tcb | secure_boot".  The new appraisal rules
requiring file signatures will be added prior to the "ima_appraise_tcb"
rules.

1be7107fbe mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas
Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing
into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which
is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping.
But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in
userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly
used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX]
which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN.

This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default
no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be
tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call
could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical,
unfortunatelly.

Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap
to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size
because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in
the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack
allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is
somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot.

One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace,
but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong
for some special case applications.  For now, add a kernel command line
option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units).

Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page:
because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a
stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point,
a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was
counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK
and strict non-overcommit mode.

Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard
gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start
(or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few
places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(),
and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

90040c9e30 rcu: Remove *_SLOW_* Kconfig options
The RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY,
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT,
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP,
and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY Kconfig options are only
useful for torture testing, and there are the rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay,
rcutree.gp_init_delay, and rcutree.gp_preinit_delay kernel boot parameters
that rcutorture can use instead.  The effect of these parameters is to
artificially slow down grace period initialization and cleanup in order
to make some types of race conditions happen more often.

This commit therefore simplifies Tree RCU a bit by removing the Kconfig
options and adding the corresponding kernel parameters to rcutorture's
.boot files instead.  However, this commit also leaves out the kernel
parameters for TREE02, TREE04, and TREE07 in order to have about the
same number of tests slowed as not slowed.  TREE01, TREE03, TREE05,
and TREE06 are slowed, and the rest are not slowed.

c350c00829 srcu: Prevent sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed counter wrap
If a given CPU never happens to ever start an SRCU grace period, the
grace-period sequence counter might wrap.  If this CPU were to decide to
finally start a grace period, the state of its sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed
might make it appear that it has already requested this grace period,
which would prevent starting the grace period.  If no other CPU ever started
a grace period again, this would look like a grace-period hang.  Even
if some other CPU took pity and started the needed grace period, the
leaf rcu_node structure's ->srcu_data_have_cbs field won't have record
of the fact that this CPU has a callback pending, which would look like
a very localized grace-period hang.

This might seem very unlikely, but SRCU grace periods can take less than
a microsecond on small systems, which means that overflow can happen
in much less than an hour on a 32-bit embedded system.  And embedded
systems are especially likely to have long-term idle CPUs.  Therefore,
it makes sense to prevent this scenario from happening.

This commit therefore scans each srcu_data structure occasionally,
with frequency controlled by the srcutree.counter_wrap_check kernel
boot parameter.  This parameter can be set to something like 255
in order to exercise the counter-wrap-prevention code.

This commit adds a writer_holdoff boot parameter to rcuperf, which is
intended to be used to test Tree SRCU's auto-expediting.  This
boot parameter is in microseconds, and defaults to zero (that is,
disabled).  Set it to a bit larger than srcutree.exp_holdoff,
keeping the nanosecond/microsecond conversion, to force Tree SRCU
to auto-expedite more aggressively.

This commit also adds documentation for this parameter, and fixes some
alphabetization while in the neighborhood.

881ed593a3 rcuperf: Add ability to performance-test call_rcu() and friends
This commit upgrades rcuperf so that it can do performance testing on
asynchronous grace-period primitives such as call_srcu().  There is
a new rcuperf.gp_async module parameter that specifies this new behavior,
with the pre-existing rcuperf.gp_exp testing expedited grace periods such as
synchronize_rcu_expedited, and with the default being to test synchronous
non-expedited grace periods such as synchronize_rcu().

There is also a new rcuperf.gp_async_max module parameter that specifies
the maximum number of outstanding callbacks per writer kthread, defaulting
to 1,000.  When this limit is exceeded, the writer thread invokes the
appropriate flavor of rcu_barrier() to wait for callbacks to drain.

8fcc9bc3ea Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt: Update 'memmap=' boot option description
In commit:

  9710f581bb ("x86, mm: Let "memmap=" take more entries one time")

... 'memmap=' was changed to adopt multiple, comma delimited values in a
single entry, so update the related description.

In the special case of only specifying size value without an offset,
like memmap=nn[KMG], memmap behaves similarly to mem=nn[KMG], so update
it too here.

Furthermore, for memmap=nn[KMG]$ss[KMG], an escape character needs be added
before '$' for some bootloaders. E.g in grub2, if we specify memmap=100M$5G
as suggested by the documentation, "memmap=100MG" gets passed to the kernel.

Clarify all this.

f4660cc994 vhost/vsock: use static minor number
Vhost-vsock is a software device so there is no probe call that causes
the driver to register its misc char device node.  This creates a
chicken and egg problem: userspace applications must open
/dev/vhost-vsock to use the driver but the file doesn't exist until the
kernel module has been loaded.

Use the devname modalias mechanism so that /dev/vhost-vsock is created
at boot.  The vhost_vsock kernel module is automatically loaded when the
first application opens /dev/host-vsock.

Note that the "reserved for local use" range in
Documentation/admin-guide/devices.txt is incorrect.  The userio driver
already occupies part of that range.  I've updated the documentation
accordingly.

28b47809b2 Merge tag 'iommu-updates-v4.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:

 - code optimizations for the Intel VT-d driver

 - ability to switch off a previously enabled Intel IOMMU

 - support for 'struct iommu_device' for OMAP, Rockchip and Mediatek
   IOMMUs

 - header optimizations for IOMMU core code headers and a few fixes that
   became necessary in other parts of the kernel because of that

 - ACPI/IORT updates and fixes

 - Exynos IOMMU optimizations

 - updates for the IOMMU dma-api code to bring it closer to use per-cpu
   iova caches

 - new command-line option to set default domain type allocated by the
   iommu core code

 - another command line option to allow the Intel IOMMU switched off in
   a tboot environment

 - ARM/SMMU: TLB sync optimisations for SMMUv2, Support for using an
   IDENTITY domain in conjunction with DMA ops, Support for SMR masking,
   Support for 16-bit ASIDs (was previously broken)

 - various other small fixes and improvements
