8f2af155b5 exec: pass stack rlimit into mm layout functions
Patch series "exec: Pin stack limit during exec".

Attempts to solve problems with the stack limit changing during exec
continue to be frustrated[1][2].  In addition to the specific issues
around the Stack Clash family of flaws, Andy Lutomirski pointed out[3]
other places during exec where the stack limit is used and is assumed to
be unchanging.  Given the many places it gets used and the fact that it
can be manipulated/raced via setrlimit() and prlimit(), I think the only
way to handle this is to move away from the "current" view of the stack
limit and instead attach it to the bprm, and plumb this down into the
functions that need to know the stack limits.  This series implements
the approach.

[1] 04e35f4495 ("exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()")
[2] 779f4e1c6c ("Revert "exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()"")
[3] to security@kernel.org, "Subject: existing rlimit races?"

This patch (of 3):

Since it is possible that the stack rlimit can change externally during
exec (either via another thread calling setrlimit() or another process
calling prlimit()), provide a way to pass the rlimit down into the
per-architecture mm layout functions so that the rlimit can stay in the
bprm structure instead of sitting in the signal structure until exec is
finalized.

3d2054ad8c ARM: CMA: avoid double mapping to the CMA area if CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
CMA area is now managed by the separate zone, ZONE_MOVABLE, to fix many
MM related problems.  In this implementation, if CONFIG_HIGHMEM = y,
then ZONE_MOVABLE is considered as HIGHMEM and the memory of the CMA
area is also considered as HIGHMEM.  That means that they are considered
as the page without direct mapping.  However, CMA area could be in a
lowmem and the memory could have direct mapping.

In ARM, when establishing a new mapping for DMA, direct mapping should
be cleared since two mapping with different cache policy could cause
unknown problem.  With this patch, PageHighmem() for the CMA memory
located in lowmem returns true so that the function for DMA mapping
cannot notice whether it needs to clear direct mapping or not,
correctly.  To handle this situation, this patch always clears direct
mapping for such CMA memory.

cb9f753a37 mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcache
Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed.  So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.

The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function.  But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,

  CPU1					CPU2
  __get_user_pages()			swapoff()
    flush_dcache_page()
      mapping = page_mapping()
        ...				  exit_swap_address_space()
        ...				    kvfree(spaces)
        mapping_mapped(mapping)

The address space may be accessed after being freed.

But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used.  The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too.  They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately.  And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings.  While mapping_mapped() and
mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.

So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise.  All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

edb39592a5 perf: Fix sibling iteration
Mark noticed that the change to sibling_list changed some iteration
semantics; because previously we used group_list as list entry,
sibling events would always have an empty sibling_list.

But because we now use sibling_list for both list head and list entry,
siblings will report as having siblings.

Fix this with a custom for_each_sibling_event() iterator.

The Broadcom Brahma-B15 readahead cache needs to be disabled,
respectively re-enable during a CPU hotplug. In case we were not to do,
CPU hotplug would occasionally fail with random crashes when a given CPU
exits the coherency domain while the RAC is still enabled, as it would
get stale data from the RAC.

In order to avoid adding any specific B15 readahead-cache awareness to
arch/arm/mach-bcm/hotplug-brcmstb.c we use a CPU hotplug state machine
which allows us to catch CPU hotplug events and disable/flush enable the
RAC accordingly.

f6f9be1c30 ARM: 8725/1: Add Broadcom Brahma-B15 readahead cache support
This patch adds support for the Broadcom Brahma-B15 CPU readahead cache
controller. This cache controller sits between the L2 and the memory bus
and its purpose is to provide a friendler burst size towards the DDR
interface than the native cache line size.

The readahead cache is mostly transparent, except for
flush_kern_cache_all, which is precisely what we are overriding here.

The readahead cache only intercepts reads, and does invalidate on
writes (IOW), as such, some data can remain stale in any of its buffers, such
that we need to flush it, which is an operation that needs to happen in
a particular order:

- disable the readahead cache
- flush it
- call the appropriate cache-v7.S function
- re-enable

This patch tries to minimize the impact to the cache-v7.S file by only
providing a stub in case CONFIG_CACHE_B15_RAC is enabled (default for
ARCH_BRCMSTB since it is the current user).

c608906165 ARM: probes: avoid adding kprobes to sensitive kernel-entry/exit code
Avoid adding kprobes to any of the kernel entry/exit or startup
assembly code, or code in the identity-mapped region.  This code does
not conform to the standard C conventions, which means that the
expectations of the kprobes code is not forfilled.

Placing kprobes at some of these locations results in the kernel trying
to return to userspace addresses while retaining the CPU in kernel mode.

400eeffaff ARM: 8722/1: mm: make STRICT_KERNEL_RWX effective for LPAE
Currently, for ARM kernels with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE and
CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled, the 2MiB pages mapping the
kernel code and rodata are writable. They are marked read-only in
a software bit (L_PMD_SECT_RDONLY) but the hardware read-only bit
is not set (PMD_SECT_AP2).

For user mappings, the logic that propagates the software bit
to the hardware bit is in set_pmd_at(); but for the kernel,
section_update() writes the PMDs directly, skipping this logic.

The fix is to set PMD_SECT_AP2 for read-only sections in
section_update(), at the same time as L_PMD_SECT_RDONLY.

3b0c0c922f ARM: 8721/1: mm: dump: check hardware RO bit for LPAE
When CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set, the PMD dump relies on the software
read-only bit to determine whether a page is writable. This
concealed a bug which left the kernel text section writable
(AP2=0) while marked read-only in the software bit.

In a kernel with the AP2 bug, the dump looks like this:

    ---[ Kernel Mapping ]---
    0xc0000000-0xc0200000           2M RW NX SHD
    0xc0200000-0xc0600000           4M ro x  SHD
    0xc0600000-0xc0800000           2M ro NX SHD
    0xc0800000-0xc4800000          64M RW NX SHD

The fix is to check that the software and hardware bits are both
set before displaying "ro". The dump then shows the true perms:

    ---[ Kernel Mapping ]---
    0xc0000000-0xc0200000           2M RW NX SHD
    0xc0200000-0xc0600000           4M RW x  SHD

fe9c0589ee ARM: 8719/1: NOMMU: work around maybe-uninitialized warning
The reworked MPU code produces a new warning in some configurations,
presumably starting with the code move after the compiler now makes
different inlining decisions:

arch/arm/mm/pmsa-v7.c: In function 'adjust_lowmem_bounds_mpu':
arch/arm/mm/pmsa-v7.c:310:5: error: 'specified_mem_size' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

This appears to be harmless, as we know that there is always at
least one memblock, and the only way this could get triggered is
if the for_each_memblock() loop was never entered.

I could not come up with a better workaround than initializing
the specified_mem_size to zero, but at least that is the value
that the variable would have in the hypothetical case of no
memblocks.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

216218308c ARM: 8713/1: NOMMU: Support MPU in XIP configuration
Currently, there is assumption in early MPU setup code that kernel
image is located in RAM, which is obviously not true for XIP. To run
code from ROM we need to make sure that it is covered by MPU. However,
due to we allocate regions (semi-)dynamically we can run into issue of
trimming region we are running from in case ROM spawns several MPU
regions. To help deal with that we enforce minimum alignments for start
end end of XIP address space as 1MB and 128Kb correspondingly.

5c9d9a1b3a ARM: 8712/1: NOMMU: Use more MPU regions to cover memory
PMSAv7 defines curious alignment requirements to the regions:
- size must be power of 2, and
- region start must be aligned to the region size

Because of that we currently adjust lowmem bounds plus we assign
only one MPU region to cover memory all these lead to significant amount of
memory could be wasted. As an example, consider 64Mb of memory at
0x70000000 - it fits alignment requirements nicely; now, imagine that
2Mb of memory is reserved for coherent DMA allocation, so now Linux is
expected to see 62Mb of memory... and here annoying thing happens -
memory gets truncated to 32Mb (we've lost 30Mb!), i.e. MPU layout
looks like:

0: base 0x70000000, size 0x2000000

This patch tries to allocate as much as possible MPU slots to minimise
amount of truncated memory. Moreover, with this patch MPU subregions
starting to get used. MPU subregions allow us reduce the number of MPU
slots used. For example given above, MPU layout looks like:

0: base 0x70000000, size 0x2000000
1: base 0x72000000, size 0x1000000
2: base 0x73000000, size 0x1000000, disable subreg 7 (0x73e00000 - 0x73ffffff)

Where without subregions we'd get:

0: base 0x70000000, size 0x2000000
1: base 0x72000000, size 0x1000000
2: base 0x73000000, size 0x800000
3: base 0x73800000, size 0x400000
4: base 0x73c00000, size 0x200000

To achieve better layout we fist try to cover specified memory as is
(maybe with help of subregions) and if we failed, we truncate memory
to fit alignment requirements (so it occupies one MPU slot) and
perform one more attempt with the reminder, and so on till we either
cover all memory or run out of MPU slots.

a0995c0805 ARM: 8708/1: NOMMU: Rework MPU to be mostly done in C
Currently, there are several issues with how MPU is setup:

 1. We won't boot if MPU is missing
 2. We won't boot if use XIP
 3. Further extension of MPU setup requires asm skills

The 1st point can be relaxed, so we can continue with boot CPU even if
MPU is missed and fail boot for secondaries only. To address the 2nd
point we could create region covering CONFIG_XIP_PHYS_ADDR - _end and
that might work for the first stage of MPU enable, but due to MPU's
alignment requirement we could cover too much, IOW we need more
flexibility in how we're partitioning memory regions... and it'd be
hardly possible to archive because of the 3rd point.

This patch is trying to address 1st and 3rd issues and paves the path
for 2nd and further improvements.

The most visible change introduced with this patch is that we start
using mpu_rgn_info array (as it was supposed?), so change in MPU setup
done by boot CPU is recorded there and feed to secondaries. It
allows us to keep minimal region setup for boot CPU and do the rest in
C. Since we start programming MPU regions in C evaluation of MPU
constrains (number of regions supported and minimal region order) can
be done once, which in turn open possibility to free-up "probe"
region early.

b337e1c40d ARM: 8698/1: dma-mapping: Mark atomic_pool as __ro_after_init
atomic_pool is setup once while init stage and never changed after
that, so it is good candidate for __ro_after_init.

Since we are here mark atomic_pool_size with __init_data.

0d9ac1625a ARM: 8696/1: mm: Remove dead code in mem_init()
The code in question checks memory constrains to set default policy for
overcommit; however we support page size of 4K only thus condition is
always evaluated to false. Remove that dead code.

746a272e44 ARM: 8692/1: mm: abort uaccess retries upon fatal signal
When there's a fatal signal pending, arm's do_page_fault()
implementation returns 0. The intent is that we'll return to the
faulting userspace instruction, delivering the signal on the way.

However, if we take a fatal signal during fixing up a uaccess, this
results in a return to the faulting kernel instruction, which will be
instantly retried, resulting in the same fault being taken forever. As
the task never reaches userspace, the signal is not delivered, and the
task is left unkillable. While the task is stuck in this state, it can
inhibit the forward progress of the system.

To avoid this, we must ensure that when a fatal signal is pending, we
apply any necessary fixup for a faulting kernel instruction. Thus we
will return to an error path, and it is up to that code to make forward
progress towards delivering the fatal signal.
