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.

When testing in userspace, UBSAN pointed out that shifting into the sign
bit is undefined behaviour. It doesn't really make sense to ask for the
highest set bit of a negative value, so just turn the argument type into
an unsigned int.
Some architectures (eg ppc) already had it declared as an unsigned int,
so I don't expect too many problems.

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.

System call table generation script must be run to gener-

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/syscall.S file.

__NR_Linux_syscalls macro holds the number of system call
exist in parisc architecture. We have to change the value
of __NR_Linux_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-
_Linux_syscalls value.
1. Update __NR_Linux_syscalls in asm/unistd.h manually by
counting the no.of system calls. No need to update __NR-
_Linux_syscalls 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_Linux_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_Linux_syscalls asm/unistd.h. The macro __NR_sys-
calls 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.

This reverts commit d27dfa13b9f77ae7e6ed09d70a0426ed26c1a8f9.
Unfortunately, this patch needs to be reverted. We need the full sync
barrier and not the limited barrier provided by using an ordered store.
The sync ensures that all accesses and cache purge instructions that
follow the sync are performed after all such instructions prior the sync
instruction have completed executing.
The patch breaks the rwlock implementation in glibc. This caused the
test-lock application in the libprelude testsuite to hang. With the
change reverted, the test runs correctly and the libprelude package
builds successfully.

Change the currently empty defines for __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED,
__PAGETABLE_PUD_FOLDED and __PAGETABLE_P4D_FOLDED to return 1.
This makes it possible to use __is_defined() to test if the
preprocessor define exists.

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.

This patch adds the necessary code to patch a running kernel at runtime
to improve performance.
The current implementation offers a few optimizations variants:
- When running a SMP kernel on a single UP processor, unwanted assembler
statements like locking functions are overwritten with NOPs. When
multiple instructions shall be skipped, one branch instruction is used
instead of multiple nop instructions.
- In the UP case, some pdtlb and pitlb instructions are patched to
become pdtlb,l and pitlb,l which only flushes the CPU-local tlb
entries instead of broadcasting the flush to other CPUs in the system
and thus may improve performance.
- fic and fdc instructions are skipped if no I- or D-caches are
installed. This should speed up qemu emulation and cacheless systems.
- If no cache coherence is needed for IO operations, the relevant fdc
and sync instructions in the sba and ccio drivers are replaced by
nops.
- On systems which share I- and D-TLBs and thus don't have a seperate
instruction TLB, the pitlb instruction is replaced by a nop.
Live-patching is done early in the boot process, just after having run
the system inventory. No drivers are running and thus no external
interrupts should arrive. So the hope is that no TLB exceptions will
occur during the patching. If this turns out to be wrong we will
probably need to do the patching in real-mode.

Change the parisc vmlinuz boot code to include and process the real
compressed vmlinux.gz ELF file instead of a compressed memory dump.
This brings parisc in sync on how it's done on x86_64.
The benefit of this change is that, e.g. for debugging purposes, one can
then extract the vmlinux file out of the vmlinuz which was booted which
wasn't possible before. This can be archieved with the existing
scripts/extract-vmlinux script, which just needs a small tweak to prefer
to extract a compressed file before trying the existing given binary.
The downside of this approach is that due to the extra round of
decompression/ELF processing we need more physical memory installed to
be able to boot a kernel.

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.

- renamed __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_UTIME to __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32

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
--- ---
compat_time_t old_time32_t
struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32
struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32
struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32
ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32()
get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32()
put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32()
compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32()
compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32()
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.

This patchset fixes and improves stack unwinding a lot:
1. Show backward stack traces with up to 30 callsites
2. Add callinfo to ENTRY_CFI() such that every assembler function will get an
entry in the unwind table
3. Use constants instead of numbers in call_on_stack()
4. Do not depend on CONFIG_KALLSYMS to generate backtraces.
5. Speed up backtrace generation
Make sure you have this patch to GNU as installed:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2018-07/msg00474.html
Without this patch, unwind info in the kernel is often wrong for various
functions.

Now that mb() is an instruction barrier, it will slow performance if we issue
unnecessary barriers.
The spinlock defines have a number of unnecessary barriers. The __ldcw()
define is both a hardware and compiler barrier. The mb() barriers in the
routines using __ldcw() serve no purpose.
The only barrier needed is the one in arch_spin_unlock(). We need to ensure
all accesses are complete prior to releasing the lock.
