There are two basic things that can happen as the result of
a bounds exception (#BR):
1. We allocate a new bounds table
2. We pass up a bounds exception to userspace.
This patch adds a trace point for the case where we are
passing the exception up to userspace with a signal.
We are also explicit that we're printing out the inverse of
the 'upper' that we encounter. If you want to filter, for
instance, you need to ~ the value first. The reason we do
this is because of how 'upper' is stored in the bounds table.
If a pointer's range is:
0x1000 -> 0x2000
it is stored in the bounds table as (32-bits here for brevity):
lower: 0x00001000
upper: 0xffffdfff
That is so that an all 0's entry:
lower: 0x00000000
upper: 0x00000000
corresponds to the "init" bounds which store a *range* of:
0x00000000 -> 0xffffffff
That is, by far, the common case, and that lets us use the
zero page, or deduplicate the memory, etc... The 'upper'
stored in the table is gibberish to print by itself, so we
print ~upper to get the *actual*, logical, human-readable
value printed out.

This is the first in a series of MPX tracing patches.
I've found these extremely useful in the process of
debugging applications and the kernel code itself.
This exception hooks in to the bounds (#BR) exception
very early and allows capturing the key registers which
would influence how the exception is handled.
Note that bndcfgu/bndstatus are technically still
64-bit registers even in 32-bit mode.

MPX has the _potential_ to cause some issues. Say part of your
init system tried to protect one of its components from buffer
overflows with MPX. If there were a false positive, it's
possible that MPX could keep a system from booting.
MPX could also potentially cause performance issues since it is
present in hot paths like the unmap path.
Allow it to be disabled at boot time.

The MPX code can only work on the current task. You can not,
for instance, enable MPX management in another process or
thread. You can also not handle a fault for another process or
thread.
Despite this, we pass a task_struct around prolifically. This
patch removes all of the task struct passing for code paths
where the code can not deal with another task (which turns out
to be all of them).
This has no functional changes. It's just a cleanup.

The MPX registers (bndcsr/bndcfgu/bndstatus) are not directly
accessible via normal instructions. They essentially act as
if they were floating point registers and are saved/restored
along with those registers.
There are two main paths in the MPX code where we care about
the contents of these registers:
1. #BR (bounds) faults
2. the prctl() code where we are setting MPX up
Both of those paths _might_ be called without the FPU having
been used. That means that 'tsk->thread.fpu.state' might
never be allocated.
Also, fpu_save_init() is not preempt-safe. It was a bug to
call it without disabling preemption. The new
get_xsave_addr() calls unlazy_fpu() instead and properly
disables preemption.

The MPX code appears is calling a low-level FPU function
(copy_fpregs_to_fpstate()). This function is not able to
be called in all contexts, although it is safe to call
directly in some cases.
Although probably correct, the current code is ugly and
potentially error-prone. So, add a wrapper that calls
the (slightly) higher-level fpu__save() (which is preempt-
safe) and also ensures that we even *have* an FPU context
(in the case that this was called when in lazy FPU mode).
Ingo had this to say about the details about when we need
preemption disabled:

get_xsave_addr() assumes that if an xsave bit is present in the
hardware (pcntxt_mask) that it is present in a given xsave
buffer. Due to an bug in the xsave code on all of the systems
that have MPX (and thus all the users of this code), that has
been a true assumption.
But, the bug is getting fixed, so our assumption is not going
to hold any more.
It's quite possible (and normal) for an enabled state to be
present on 'pcntxt_mask', but *not* in 'xstate_bv'. We need
to consult 'xstate_bv'.

Currently fpu__activate_fpstate() is used for two distinct purposes:
- read access by ptrace and core dumping, where in the core dumping
case the current task's FPU state may be examined as well.
- write access by ptrace, which modifies FPU registers and expects
the modified registers to be reloaded on the next context switch.
Split out the reading side into fpu__activate_fpstate_read().
( Note that this is just a pure duplication of fpu__activate_fpstate()

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 27452 at arch/x86/kernel/fpu/core.c:324 fpu__activate_stopped+0x8a/0xa0()
This warning unearthed an invalid assumption about fpu__activate_stopped()
that I added in:
67e97fc2ec ("x86/fpu: Rename init_fpu() to fpu__unlazy_stopped() and add debugging check")
the old init_fpu() function had an (intentional but obscure) side effect:
when FPU registers are accessed for the current task, for reading, then
it synchronized live in-register FPU state with the fpstate by saving it.
So fix this bug by saving the FPU if we are the current task. We'll
still warn in fpu__save() if this is called for not yet stopped
child tasks, so the debugging check is still preserved.
Also rename the function to fpu__activate_fpstate(), because it's not
exclusively used for stopped tasks, but for the current task as well.
( Note that this bug calls for a cleaner separation of access-for-read
and access-for-modification FPU methods, but we'll do that in separate
patches. )

The copy_xregs_to_kernel*() and copy_kernel_to_xregs*() functions are used
to copy FPU registers to kernel memory and vice versa.
They are never expected to fail, yet they have a return code, mostly because
that way they can share the assembly macros with the copy*user*() functions.
This error code is then silently ignored by the context switching
and other code - which made the bug in:
b8c1b8ea7b ("x86/fpu: Fix FPU state save area alignment bug")
harder to fix than necessary.
So remove the return values and check for no faults when FPU debugging
is enabled in the .config.

instructions, when FPU debugging is disabled:

There's a confusing aspect of how xstate_fault() constraints are
handled by the FPU register/memory copying functions in
fpu/internal.h: they use "0" (0) to signal that the asm code
will not always set 'err' to a valid value.
But 'err' is already initialized to 0 in C code, which is duplicated
by the asm() constraint. Should the initialization value ever be
changed, it might become subtly inconsistent with the not too clear
asm() constraint.
Use 'err' as the value of the input variable instead, to clarify
this all.

There are two problems with xstate_fault handling:
- The xstate_fault() macro takes an argument, but that's
propagated into the assembly named label as well. This
is technically correct currently but might result in
failures if anytime a more complex argument is used.
So use a separate '_err' name instead for the label.
- All the xstate_fault() using functions have an error
variable named 'err', which is an output variable to
the asm() they are using. The problem is, it's not always
set by the asm(), in which case the compiler might
optimize out its initialization, so that the C variable
'err' might become corrupted after the asm() - confusing
anyone who tries to take advantage of this variable
after the asm(). Mark it an input variable as well.
This is a latent bug currently, but an upcoming debug
patch will make use of 'err'.

So the xstate code was probably first copied from the fxregs code,
hence it carried over the 'fx' naming for the state pointer variable.
But this is slightly confusing, as we usually on call the (legacy)
MMX/SSE state 'fx', both in data structures and in the functions
build around FXSAVE/FXRSTOR.
So rename it to 'xstate' to make it more apparent what it is related to.

All the other register<-> memory copying functions are defined
in fpu/internal.h, so move the xstate variants there too.
Beyond being more consistent, this also allows FPU debugging
checks to be added to them. (Because they can now use the
macros defined in fpu/internal.h.)

On most configs task-struct is cache line aligned, which makes
the XSAVE area's 64-byte required alignment work out fine.
But on some .config's task_struct is aligned only to 16 bytes
(enforced by ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN), which makes things like
fpu__copy() (that XSAVEOPT uses) not work so well.
I broke this in:
7366ed771f ("x86/fpu: Simplify FPU handling by embedding the fpstate in task_struct (again)")
which embedded the fpstate in the task_struct.
The alignment requirements of the FPU code were originally present
in ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN, which still has a value of 16, which was the
alignment requirement of the FPU state area prior XSAVE. But this
link was not documented (and not required) and the link got lost
when the FPU state area was made dynamic years ago.
With XSAVEOPT the minimum alignment requirment went up to 64 bytes,
and the embedding of the FPU state area in task_struct exposed it
again - and '16' was not increased to '64'.
So fix this bug, but also try to address the underlying lost link
of information that made it easier to happen:
- document ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN a bit better
- use alignof() to recover the current alignment requirements.
This would work in the future as well, should the alignment
requirements go up to 128 bytes with things like AVX512.
( We should probably also use the vSMP alignment rules for all
of x86, but that's for another patch. )

When trying to configure the settings for PHY1, using commands
like 'ethtool -s eth0 phyad 1 speed 100', the 'ethtool' seems to
modify other settings apart from the speed of the PHY1, in the
above case.
The ethtool seems to query the settings for PHY0, and use this
as the base to apply the new settings to the PHY1. This is
causing the other settings of the PHY 1 to be wrongly
configured.
The issue is caused by the '_ethtool_get_settings()' API, which
gets called because of the 'ETHTOOL_GSET' command, is clearing
the 'cmd' pointer (of type 'struct ethtool_cmd') by calling
memset. This clears all the parameters (if any) passed for the
'ETHTOOL_GSET' cmd. So the driver's callback is always invoked
with 'cmd->phy_address' as '0'.
The '_ethtool_get_settings()' is called from other files in the
'net/core'. So the fix is applied to the 'ethtool_get_settings()'
which is only called in the context of the 'ethtool'.

When more than a multicast address is present in a MLDv2 report, all but
the first address is ignored, because the code breaks out of the loop if
there has not been an error adding that address.
This has caused failures when two guests connected through the bridge
tried to communicate using IPv6. Neighbor discoveries would not be
transmitted to the other guest when both used a link-local address and a
static address.
This only happens when there is a MLDv2 querier in the network.
The fix will only break out of the loop when there is a failure adding a
multicast address.

The following patchset contain Netfilter fixes for your net tree, they are:
1) Fix a race in nfnetlink_log and nfnetlink_queue that can lead to a crash.
This problem is due to wrong order in the per-net registration and netlink
socket events. Patch from Francesco Ruggeri.
2) Make sure that counters that userspace pass us are higher than 0 in all the
