02bdf9da9e docs/features: parisc implements tracehook
Since commit 64e2a42bca ("parisc: Add ARCH_TRACEHOOK and regset
support") in v4.7, parisc selects HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK, so update its
entry in Documentation/features from TODO to ok.

7246f60068 powerpc updates for 4.12 part 1.
Highlights include:
 
  - Larger virtual address space on 64-bit server CPUs. By default we use a 128TB
    virtual address space, but a process can request access to the full 512TB by
    passing a hint to mmap().
 
  - Support for the new Power9 "XIVE" interrupt controller.
 
  - TLB flushing optimisations for the radix MMU on Power9.
 
  - Support for CAPI cards on Power9, using the "Coherent Accelerator Interface
    Architecture 2.0".
 
  - The ability to configure the mmap randomisation limits at build and runtime.
 
  - Several small fixes and cleanups to the kprobes code, as well as support for
    KPROBES_ON_FTRACE.
 
  - Major improvements to handling of system reset interrupts, correctly treating
    them as NMIs, giving them a dedicated stack and using a new hypervisor call
    to trigger them, all of which should aid debugging and robustness.
 
 Many fixes and other minor enhancements.

ead514d5fb powerpc/kprobes: Add support for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE
Allow kprobes to be placed on ftrace _mcount() call sites. This optimization
avoids the use of a trap, by riding on ftrace infrastructure.

This depends on HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS which depends on MPROFILE_KERNEL,
which is only currently enabled on powerpc64le with newer toolchains.

Based on the x86 code by Masami.

588ab3f9af arm64 updates for 4.6:
- Initial page table creation reworked to avoid breaking large block
   mappings (huge pages) into smaller ones. The ARM architecture requires
   break-before-make in such cases to avoid TLB conflicts but that's not
   always possible on live page tables
 
 - Kernel virtual memory layout: the kernel image is no longer linked to
   the bottom of the linear mapping (PAGE_OFFSET) but at the bottom of
   the vmalloc space, allowing the kernel to be loaded (nearly) anywhere
   in physical RAM
 
 - Kernel ASLR: position independent kernel Image and modules being
   randomly mapped in the vmalloc space with the randomness is provided
   by UEFI (efi_get_random_bytes() patches merged via the arm64 tree,
   acked by Matt Fleming)
 
 - Implement relative exception tables for arm64, required by KASLR
   (initial code for ARCH_HAS_RELATIVE_EXTABLE added to lib/extable.c but
   actual x86 conversion to deferred to 4.7 because of the merge
   dependencies)
 
 - Support for the User Access Override feature of ARMv8.2: this allows
   uaccess functions (get_user etc.) to be implemented using LDTR/STTR
   instructions. Such instructions, when run by the kernel, perform
   unprivileged accesses adding an extra level of protection. The
   set_fs() macro is used to "upgrade" such instruction to privileged
   accesses via the UAO bit
 
 - Half-precision floating point support (part of ARMv8.2)
 
 - Optimisations for CPUs with or without a hardware prefetcher (using
   run-time code patching)
 
 - copy_page performance improvement to deal with 128 bytes at a time
 
 - Sanity checks on the CPU capabilities (via CPUID) to prevent
   incompatible secondary CPUs from being brought up (e.g. weird
   big.LITTLE configurations)
 
 - valid_user_regs() reworked for better sanity check of the sigcontext
   information (restored pstate information)
 
 - ACPI parking protocol implementation
 
 - CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA enabled by default
 
 - VDSO code marked as read-only

This wires up the existing generic huge-vmap feature, which allows
ioremap() to use PMD or PUD sized block mappings. It also adds support
to the unmap path for dealing with block mappings, which will allow us
to unmap the __init region using unmap_kernel_range() in a subsequent
patch.

df8a0dde73 Remove "arch" usage in Documentation/features/list-arch.sh
Commit 669f6f96c6 introduced
the script list-arch.sh, which uses the command "arch":

ARCH=${1:-$(arch | sed 's/x86_64/x86/' | sed 's/i386/x86/')}

It turns out that the "arch" command does not exist in my system (arch
distro). Google found man pages which say "arch is deprecated command since
release util-linux 2.13. Use uname -m" (util-linux 2.13 was released in 2007).
I also found a debian bug reporting the lack of arch and being told to use
uname -m https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=446023

But then, why it works in some distros? Apparently coreutils gained an
optional arch command that needs to be explicitly enabled during compilation.
Some distros enable it, others don't. Sigh.

c50b4659e4 um: Add seccomp support
This brings SECCOMP_MODE_STRICT and SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER support through
prctl(2) and seccomp(2) to User-mode Linux for i386 and x86_64
subarchitectures.

secure_computing() is called first in handle_syscall() so that the
syscall emulation will be aborted quickly if matching a seccomp rule.

This is inspired from Meredydd Luff's patch
(https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/21425).

24da208db3 arm64: enable HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING
arm64 relies on the arm_arch_timer for sched_clock, so we can select
HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING and have the core sched-clock code enable the
feature at runtime based on the rate.

2dc10ad81f arm64 updates for 4.4:
- "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
   merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
   upstreamed via the arm64 tree
 
 - CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
   where CPUs may not have exactly the same features. The features
   reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
   delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)
 
 - Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
   space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT
 
 - Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64
 
 - New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
   with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
   feasible)
 
 - KASan support for arm64
 
 - EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
   KASan)
 
 - copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)
 
 - perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework
 
 - L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware
 
 - Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive
   entries may be able to use a single TLB entry)
 
 - Generic CONFIG_HZ now used on arm64
 
 - defconfig updates

669f6f96c6 Documentation/features: Explain kernel feature descriptions and add visualization script
The previous patches added arch support matrices for more than 40 generic kernel features
that need per architecture support.

The structure of the feature descriptions is the following:

Each feature has its own directory under Documentation/features/subsystem_name/feature_name/,
and the arch-support.txt file shows its current arch porting status.

For example, lockdep support is shown the following way:

    triton:~/tip> cat Documentation/features/locking/lockdep/arch-support.txt
    #
    # Feature name:          lockdep
    #         Kconfig:       LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
    #         description:   arch supports the runtime locking correctness debug facility

        |      xtensa: |  ok  |
        -----------------------

For generic kernel features that need architecture support, the
arch-support.txt file in each feature directory shows the arch
support matrix, for all upstream Linux architectures.

The meaning of entries in the tables is:

    | ok |  # feature supported by the architecture
    |TODO|  # feature not yet supported by the architecture
    | .. |  # feature cannot be supported by the hardware

This directory structure can be used in the future to add other
files - such as porting guides, testing description, etc.

The Documentation/features/ hierarchy may also include generic
kernel features that works on every architecture, in that case
the arch-support.txt file will list every architecture as
supported.

To list an architecture's unsupported features, just do something
like:

  triton:~/tip>  git grep -lE 'x86.*TODO' Documentation/features/*/*/arch-support.txt
  Documentation/features/lib/strncasecmp/arch-support.txt
  Documentation/features/time/arch-tick-broadcast/arch-support.txt

which will print the list of not yet supported features.

The Documentation/features/list-arch.sh script will print the current
support matrix of one architecture:

  triton:~/tip> Documentation/features/list-arch.sh
