This tool induces memory fragmentation via sequential allocation of
transparent huge pages and splitting off everything except their last
sub-pages. It easily generates pressure to the memory compaction code.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6. The most
significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns
drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling.
The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not
allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the
system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only,
no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec
mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing
with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the
last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify
this change works correctly.
The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing
nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the
kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever
with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the
!CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given
that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo
in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be
backported as well.
The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing
/proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This
prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a
user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions
so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line
commits that can be trivially reverted. Unfortunately I lost and
could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not
credited. From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a
refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by
the introduction of the network namespace"

Setting SEAL_WRITE is not possible if there're pending GUP users. This
commit adds selftests for memfd+sealing that use FUSE to create pending
page-references. FUSE is very helpful here in that it allows us to delay
direct-IO operations for an arbitrary amount of time. This way, we can
force the kernel to pin pages and then run our normal selftests.

On IBM powerpc where multiple page size value are supported, current
ppc64 and ppc64el distro don't define the PAGE_SIZE variable in
/usr/include as this is a dynamic value retrieved by the getpagesize()
or sysconf() defined in unistd.h. The PAGE_SIZE variable sounds defined
when only one value is supported by the kernel.
As such, when the PAGE_SIZE definition doesn't exist system should
retrieve the dynamic value.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"This is the powerpc new goodies for 3.17. The short story:
The biggest bit is Michael removing all of pre-POWER4 processor
support from the 64-bit kernel. POWER3 and rs64. This gets rid of a
ton of old cruft that has been bitrotting in a long while. It was
broken for quite a few versions already and nobody noticed. Nobody
uses those machines anymore. While at it, he cleaned up a bunch of
old dusty cabinets, getting rid of a skeletton or two.
Then, we have some base VFIO support for KVM, which allows assigning
of PCI devices to KVM guests, support for large 64-bit BARs on
"powernv" platforms, support for HMI (Hardware Management Interrupts)
on those same platforms, some sparse-vmemmap improvements (for memory
hotplug),
There is the usual batch of Freescale embedded updates (summary in the
merge commit) and fixes here or there, I think that's it for the
highlights"

Kenton Varda <kenton@sandstorm.io> discovered that by remounting a
read-only bind mount read-only in a user namespace the
MNT_LOCK_READONLY bit would be cleared, allowing an unprivileged user
to the remount a read-only mount read-write.
Upon review of the code in remount it was discovered that the code allowed
nosuid, noexec, and nodev to be cleared. It was also discovered that
the code was allowing the per mount atime flags to be changed.
The first naive patch to fix these issues contained the flaw that using
default atime settings when remounting a filesystem could be disallowed.
To avoid this problems in the future add tests to ensure unprivileged
remounts are succeeding and failing at the appropriate times.

well as the raw result from instructions.

There is at least one bug in core_busy_loop(), we use r0, but it's
not in the clobber list. We were getting away with this it seems but
that was luck.
It's also fishy to be touching the stack, even if we do it below the
stack pointer. It seems we get away with it, but looking at the
generated code that may just be luck.
So move it into assembler, do all the stack handling by hand. We create
a stack frame to save the non-volatiles in, so we can muck around with
them.

Currently we ignore errors from our sub Makefiles. We inherited that
from the top-level selftests Makefile which aims to build and run as
many tests as possible and damn the torpedoes.
For the powerpc tests we'd instead like any errors to fail the build, so
we can automatically catch build failures.
We can achieve the best of both worlds by using -k, which tells make to
keep building when it hits an error, but still reports the error.

On some systems, hot-plug tests could hang forever waiting for cpu and
memory to be ready to be offlined. A special hot-plug target is created
to run full range of hot-plug tests. In default mode, hot-plug tests run
in safe mode with a limited scope. In limited mode, cpu-hotplug test is
run on a single cpu as opposed to all hotplug capable cpus, and memory
hotplug test is run on 2% of hotplug capable memory instead of 10%. In
addition to the above change, cpu-hotplug is chnged to change processor
affinity to cpu 0 so it doesn't impact itself while the test runs.

Currently the post-processing complains about the lack of rcutorture
output when --buildonly is set and also emits misleading messages about
kernels being started and finishing. This commit suppresses these
complaints and messages.

The CFcommon file must now be present, which makes using the current
scripts against old kernel versions cumbersome. This commit therefore
makes the CFcommon file be optional, so that old kernel versions can be
used with current torture scripts.

Pull more powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here are the remaining bits I was mentioning earlier. Mostly bug
fixes and new selftests from Michael (yay !). He also removed the WSP
platform and A2 core support which were dead before release, so less
clutter.
One little "feature" I snuck in is the doorbell IPI support for
non-virtualized P8 which speeds up IPIs significantly between threads
of a core"

Correct the DSCR SPR becoming temporarily corrupted if a task is
context switched during a transaction.
The problem occurs while suspending the task and is caused by saving
the DSCR to thread.dscr after it has already been set to the CPU's
default value:
__switch_to() calls __switch_to_tm()
which calls tm_reclaim_task()
which calls tm_reclaim_thread()
which calls tm_reclaim()
where the DSCR is set to the CPU's default
__switch_to() calls _switch()
where thread.dscr is set to the DSCR
When the task is resumed, it's transaction will be doomed (as usual)
and the DSCR SPR will be corrupted, although the checkpointed value
will be correct. Therefore the DSCR will be immediately corrected by
the transaction aborting, unless it has been suspended. In that case
the incorrect value can be seen by the task until it resumes the
transaction.
The fix is to treat the DSCR similarly to the TAR and save it early
in __switch_to().
A program exposing the problem is added to the kernel self tests as:
tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-resched-dscr.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window. It got
a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part
because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer
ack in it. Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll
probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack.
There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I
still want to sort through and test.
The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel
with our new v2 ABI. We previously supported v2 userspace but the
kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack. This is now sorted mostly
thanks to Anton and Rusty.
We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for
64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper. This was made harder by the fact that
traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE
toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there
but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it. This
meant more churn that just endian fixes.
This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in
LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the
right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the
right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes.
There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we
*will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!).
Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on
P8 by Michael. This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of
4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM
(the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread).
And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..."
