The 'access_permitted' helper is used in the gup-fast path and goes
beyond the simple _PAGE_RW check to also:
- validate that the mapping is writable from a protection keys
standpoint
- validate that the pte has _PAGE_USER set since all fault paths where
pmd_write is must be referencing user-memory.

In response to compile breakage introduced by a series that added the
pud_write helper to x86, Stephen notes:
did you consider using the other paradigm:
In arch include files:
#define pud_write pud_write
static inline int pud_write(pud_t pud)
.....
Then in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:
#ifndef pud_write
tatic inline int pud_write(pud_t pud)
{
....
}
#endif
If you had, then the powerpc code would have worked ... ;-) and many
of the other interfaces in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h are
protected that way ...
Given that some architecture already define pmd_write() as a macro, it's
a net reduction to drop the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_WRITE.

Currently only get_user_pages_fast() can safely handle the writable gup
case due to its use of pud_access_permitted() to check whether the pud
entry is writable. In the gup slow path pud_write() is used instead of
pud_access_permitted() and to date it has been unimplemented, just calls
BUG_ON().

For now this just implements a simple check for the _PAGE_RW bit similar
to pmd_write. However, this implies that the gup-slow-path check is
missing the extra checks that the gup-fast-path performs with
pud_access_permitted. Later patches will align all checks to use the
'access_permitted' helper if the architecture provides it.
Note that the generic 'access_permitted' helper fallback is the simple
_PAGE_RW check on architectures that do not define the
'access_permitted' helper(s).

If the call __alloc_contig_migrate_range() in alloc_contig_range returns
-EBUSY, processing continues so that test_pages_isolated() is called
where there is a tracepoint to identify the busy pages. However, it is
possible for busy pages to become available between the calls to these
two routines. In this case, the range of pages may be allocated.
Unfortunately, the original return code (ret == -EBUSY) is still set and
returned to the caller. Therefore, the caller believes the pages were
not allocated and they are leaked.
Update the comment to indicate that allocation is still possible even if
__alloc_contig_migrate_range returns -EBUSY. Also, clear return code in
this case so that it is not accidentally used or returned to caller.

tlb_gather_mmu(&tlb, mm, 0, -1) means gathering the whole virtual memory
space. In this case, tlb->fullmm is true. Some archs like arm64
doesn't flush TLB when tlb->fullmm is true:
commit 5a7862e83000 ("arm64: tlbflush: avoid flushing when fullmm == 1").
Which causes leaking of tlb entries.
Will clarifies his patch:
"Basically, we tag each address space with an ASID (PCID on x86) which
is resident in the TLB. This means we can elide TLB invalidation when
pulling down a full mm because we won't ever assign that ASID to
another mm without doing TLB invalidation elsewhere (which actually
just nukes the whole TLB).
I think that means that we could potentially not fault on a kernel
uaccess, because we could hit in the TLB"
There could be a window between complete_signal() sending IPI to other
cores and all threads sharing this mm are really kicked off from cores.
In this window, the oom reaper may calls tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly() to
flush TLB then frees pages. However, due to the above problem, the TLB
entries are not really flushed on arm64. Other threads are possible to
access these pages through TLB entries. Moreover, a copy_to_user() can
also write to these pages without generating page fault, causes
use-after-free bugs.
This patch gathers each vma instead of gathering full vm space. In this
case tlb->fullmm is not true. The behavior of oom reaper become similar
to munmapping before do_exit, which should be safe for all archs.

drain_all_pages backs off when called from a kworker context since
commit 0ccce3b92421 ("mm, page_alloc: drain per-cpu pages from workqueue
context") because the original IPI based pcp draining has been replaced
by a WQ based one and the check wanted to prevent from recursion and
inter workers dependencies. This has made some sense at the time
because the system WQ has been used and one worker holding the lock
could be blocked while waiting for new workers to emerge which can be a
problem under OOM conditions.
Since then commit ce612879ddc7 ("mm: move pcp and lru-pcp draining into
single wq") has moved draining to a dedicated (mm_percpu_wq) WQ with a
rescuer so we shouldn't depend on any other WQ activity to make a
forward progress so calling drain_all_pages from a worker context is
safe as long as this doesn't happen from mm_percpu_wq itself which is
not the case because all workers are required to _not_ depend on any MM
locks.
Why is this a problem in the first place? ACPI driven memory hot-remove
(acpi_device_hotplug) is executed from the worker context. We end up
calling __offline_pages to free all the pages and that requires both
lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked and drain_all_pages to do their job
otherwise we can have dangling pages on pcp lists and fail the offline
operation (__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock would see a page with 0 ref
count but without PageBuddy set).
Fix the issue by removing the worker check in drain_all_pages.
lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked doesn't have this restriction so it works
as expected.

This just changes the file to report them as zero, although maybe even
that could be removed. I checked, and at least procps doesn't actually
seem to parse the 'stack' file at all.
And since the file doesn't necessarily even exist (it requires
CONFIG_STACKTRACE), possibly other tools don't really use it either.
That said, in case somebody parses it with tools, just having that zero
there should keep such tools happy.

This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel
superblock flags.
The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the
moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to.

while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb->s_flags.

Currently we make page table entries dirty all the time regardless of
access type and don't even consider if the mapping is write-protected.
The reasoning is that we don't really need dirty tracking on THP and
making the entry dirty upfront may save some time on first write to the
page.
Unfortunately, such approach may result in false-positive
can_follow_write_pmd() for huge zero page or read-only shmem file.
Let's only make page dirty only if we about to write to the page anyway
(as we do for small pages).
I've restructured the code to make entry dirty inside
maybe_p[mu]d_mkwrite(). It also takes into account if the vma is
write-protected.

It may result in false-positive can_follow_write_pmd().
We may avoid the situation, if we would only make the page table entry
dirty if caller asks for write access -- FOLL_WRITE.
The patch also changes touch_pud() in the same way.

The skcipher_walk_aead_common function calls scatterwalk_copychunks on
the input and output walks to skip the associated data. If the AD end
at an SG list entry boundary, then after these calls the walks will
still be pointing to the end of the skipped region.
These offsets are later checked for alignment in skcipher_walk_next,
so the skcipher_walk may detect the alignment incorrectly.
This patch fixes it by calling scatterwalk_done after the copychunks
calls to ensure that the offsets refer to the right SG list entry.

Make afs_write_begin() wait for a page that's marked PG_writeback because:
(1) We need to avoid interference with the data being stored so that the
data on the server ends up in a defined state.
(2) page->private is used to track the window of dirty data within a page,
but it's also used by the storage code to track what's being written,
being cleared by the completion notification. Ownership can't be
relinquished by the storage code until completion because it a store
fails, the data must be remarked dirty.

The recent conversion of the task state recording to use task_state_index()
broke the sched_switch tracepoint task state output.
task_state_index() returns surprisingly an index (0-7) which is then
printed with __print_flags() applying bitmasks. Not really working and
resulting in weird states like 'prev_state=t' instead of 'prev_state=I'.
Use TASK_REPORT_MAX instead of TASK_STATE_MAX to report preemption. Build a
bitmask from the return value of task_state_index() and store it in
entry->prev_state, which makes __print_flags() work as expected.

The kbuild test robot reported this build warning:
Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at <jump_table>:ffffffff8103dd2c
Warning: ffffffff8103dd82: f6 09 d8 testb $0xd8,(%rcx)
Warning: objdump says 3 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 2
Warning: decoded and checked 1569014 instructions with 1 warnings
This sequence seems to be a new instruction not in the opcode map in the Intel SDM.
The instruction sequence is "F6 09 d8", means Group3(F6), MOD(00)REG(001)RM(001), and 0xd8.
Intel SDM vol2 A.4 Table A-6 said the table index in the group is "Encoding of Bits 5,4,3 of
the ModR/M Byte (bits 2,1,0 in parenthesis)"
In that table, opcodes listed by the index REG bits as:
000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111
TEST Ib/Iz,(undefined),NOT,NEG,MUL AL/rAX,IMUL AL/rAX,DIV AL/rAX,IDIV AL/rAX
So, it seems TEST Ib is assigned to 001.
Add the new pattern.

The code paths protected by the socket-lock do not use or modify the
socket in a non-atomic fashion. The actions pertaining the socket do not
even need to be handled as an atomic operation. Thus, the socket-lock
can be safely ignored.
This fixes a bug regarding scheduling in atomic as the callback function
may be invoked in interrupt context.
In addition, the sock_hold is moved before the AIO encrypt/decrypt
operation to ensure that the socket is always present. This avoids a
tiny race window where the socket is unprotected and yet used by the AIO
operation.
Finally, the release of resources for a crypto operation is moved into a
common function of af_alg_free_resources.

The TX SGL may contain SGL entries that are assigned a NULL page. This
may happen if a multi-stage AIO operation is performed where the data
for each stage is pointed to by one SGL entry. Upon completion of that
stage, af_alg_pull_tsgl will assign NULL to the SGL entry.
The NULL cipher used to copy the AAD from TX SGL to the destination
buffer, however, cannot handle the case where the SGL starts with an SGL
entry having a NULL page. Thus, the code needs to advance the start
pointer into the SGL to the first non-NULL entry.
This fixes a crash visible on Intel x86 32 bit using the libkcapi test
suite.

In order to save on redundant structs definitions
insn_get_code_seg_params() was made to return two 4-bit values in a char
but clang complains:
arch/x86/lib/insn-eval.c:780:10: warning: implicit conversion from 'int' to 'char'
changes value from 132 to -124 [-Wconstant-conversion]
return INSN_CODE_SEG_PARAMS(4, 8);
~~~~~~ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./arch/x86/include/asm/insn-eval.h:16:57: note: expanded from macro 'INSN_CODE_SEG_PARAMS'
#define INSN_CODE_SEG_PARAMS(oper_sz, addr_sz) (oper_sz | (addr_sz << 4))
Those two values do get picked apart afterwards the opposite way of how
they were ORed so wrt to the LSByte, the return value is the same.
But this function returns -EINVAL in the error case, which is an int. So
make it return an int which is the native word size anyway and thus fix
the clang warning.

Tuntap and similar devices can inject GSO packets. Accept type
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP, even though not generating UFO natively.
Processes are expected to use feature negotiation such as TUNSETOFFLOAD
to detect supported offload types and refrain from injecting other
packets. This process breaks down with live migration: guest kernels
do not renegotiate flags, so destination hosts need to expose all
features that the source host does.
Partially revert the UFO removal from 182e0b6b5846~1..d9d30adf5677.
This patch introduces nearly(*) no new code to simplify verification.
It brings back verbatim tuntap UFO negotiation, VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP
insertion and software UFO segmentation.
It does not reinstate protocol stack support, hardware offload
(NETIF_F_UFO), SKB_GSO_UDP tunneling in SKB_GSO_SOFTWARE or reception
of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP packets in tuntap.
To support SKB_GSO_UDP reappearing in the stack, also reinstate
logic in act_csum and openvswitch. Achieve equivalence with v4.13 HEAD
by squashing in commit 939912216fa8 ("net: skb_needs_check() removes
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY check for tx.") and reverting commit 8d63bee643f1
("net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO").
(*) To avoid having to bring back skb_shinfo(skb)->ip6_frag_id,
ipv6_proxy_select_ident is changed to return a __be32 and this is
assigned directly to the frag_hdr. Also, SKB_GSO_UDP is inserted
at the end of the enum to minimize code churn.
Tested
Booted a v4.13 guest kernel with QEMU. On a host kernel before this
patch `ethtool -k eth0` shows UFO disabled. After the patch, it is
enabled, same as on a v4.13 host kernel.
A UFO packet sent from the guest appears on the tap device:
host:
nc -l -p -u 8000 &
tcpdump -n -i tap0
guest:
dd if=/dev/zero of=payload.txt bs=1 count=2000
nc -u 192.16.1.1 8000 < payload.txt
Direct tap to tap transmission of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP succeeds,
packets arriving fragmented:
./with_tap_pair.sh ./tap_send_ufo tap0 tap1

userspace tool (according to the new API specs) never tries
the legacy set() call, when the new get() call succeeds.

Florian reported a breakage with anycast routes due to commit
4832c30d5458 ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on device with
address"). Prior to this commit anycast routes were added against the
loopback device causing repetitive route entries with no insight into
why they existed. e.g.:
$ ip -6 ro ls table local type anycast
anycast 2001:db8:1:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
anycast 2001:db8:2:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
anycast fe80:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
anycast fe80:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
The point of commit 4832c30d5458 is to add the routes using the device
with the address which is causing the route to be added. e.g.,:
$ ip -6 ro ls table local type anycast
anycast 2001:db8:1:: dev eth1 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
anycast 2001:db8:2:: dev eth2 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
anycast fe80:: dev eth2 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
anycast fe80:: dev eth1 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
For traffic to work as it did before, the dst device needs to be switched
to the loopback when the copy is created similar to local routes.

When the 'ignore_routes_with_linkdown' sysctl is set, we should not
consider linkdown nexthops during route lookup.
While the code correctly verifies that the initially selected route
('match') has a carrier, it does not perform the same check in the
subsequent multipath selection, resulting in a potential packet loss.
In case the chosen route does not have a carrier and the sysctl is set,
choose the initially selected route.

If you flush (delete) a filter chain other than chain 0 (such as when

To reproduce the bug, run:
ip link add dtest type dummy
tc qdisc add dev dtest ingress
tc filter add dev dtest chain 1 parent ffff: flower

This change resolves a new compile-time warning
when built as a loadable module:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/net/phy/cortina.o
see include/linux/module.h for more information
This adds the license as "GPL", which matches the header of the file.
MODULE_DESCRIPTION and MODULE_AUTHOR are also added.

$(real-objs-y) in only used in scripts/Makefile.build to form
"targets", but $(extra-y) is added to "targets" in another line.
We do not need to add $(extra-y) twice.

The "rpm" has been kept for backward compatibility since pre-git era.
I am planning to remove it after the Linux 4.18 release. Annouce the
end of the support, prompting to use "rpm-pkg" instead.
If you use "rpm", it will work like "rpm-pkg", but warning messages
will be displayed as follows:
WARNING: "rpm" target will be removed after Linux 4.18
Please use "rpm-pkg" instead.

For rpm-pkg and deb-pkg, a source tar file is created. All paths in
the archive must be prefixed with the base name of the tar so that
everything is contained in the directory when you extract it.
Currently, scripts/package/Makefile uses a symlink for that, and
removes it after the tar is created.
If you terminate the build during the tar creation, the symlink is
left over. Then, at the next package build, you will see a warning
like follows:
ln: '.' and 'kernel-4.14.0+/.' are the same file
It is possible to fix it by adding -n (--no-dereference) option to
the "ln" command, but a cleaner way is to use --transform option
of "tar" command. This option is GNU extension, but it should not
hurt to use it in the Linux build system.
The 'S' flag is needed to exclude symlinks from the path fixup.
Without it, symlinks in the kernel are broken.

The command "make -j8 C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck" produces
lots of "coccicheck failed" error messages.
Julia Lawall explained the Coccinelle behavior as follows:
"The problem on the Coccinelle side is that it uses a subdirectory
with the name of the semantic patch to store standard output and
standard error for the different threads. I didn't want to use a
name with the pid, so that one could easily find this information
while Coccinelle is running. Normally the subdirectory is cleaned
up when Coccinelle completes, so there is only one of them at a time.
Maybe it is best to just add the pid. There is the risk that these
subdirectories will accumulate if Coccinelle crashes in a way such
that they don't get cleaned up, but Coccinelle could print a warning
if it detects this case, rather than failing."
When scripts/coccicheck is used as CHECK tool and -j option is given
to Make, the whole of build process runs in parallel. So, multiple
processes try to get access to the same subdirectory.
I notice spatch creates the subdirectory only when it runs in parallel
(i.e. --jobs <N> is given and <N> is greater than 1).
Setting NPROC=1 is a reasonable solution; spatch does not create the
subdirectory. Besides, ONLINE=1 mode takes a single file input for
each spatch invocation, so there is no reason to parallelize it in
the first place.
