In a recent patch:
commit c13f20ac48
Author: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org>
powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contexts
We fixed an issue but an improved solution was later discussed after the patch
was merged.
Firstly, this patch doesn't handle the 64bit signals case, which could also hit
this issue (but has never been reported).
Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to. The
new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the
context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when
VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the
state).
This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution. It
also adds a 64 bit version.

When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP option is used in kernel, makedumpfile fails
to filter vmcore dump as it fails to do vmemmap translations. So far
dump filtering on ppc64 never had to deal with vmemmap addresses seperately
as vmemmap regions where mapped in zone normal. But with the inclusion of
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP config option in kernel, this vmemmap address
translation support becomes necessary for dump filtering. For vmemmap adress
translation, few kernel symbols are needed by dump filtering tool. This patch
adds those symbols to vmcoreinfo, which a dump filtering tool can use for
filtering the kernel dump. Tested this changes successfully with makedumpfile
tool that supports vmemmap to physical address translation outside zone normal.

And in flush_hugetlb_page(), don't check whether vma is NULL after

This was found by Dan using static analysis as described here:
https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2013-November/113161.html
We currently get away with this because the callers that currently pass
NULL for vma seem to be 32-bit-only (e.g. highmem, and
CONFIG_DEBUG_PGALLOC in pgtable_32.c) Hugetlb is currently 64-bit only,

The VSX MSR bit in the user context indicates if the context contains VSX
state. Currently we set this when the process has touched VSX at any stage.
Unfortunately, if the user has not provided enough space to save the VSX state,
we can't save it but we currently still set the MSR VSX bit.
This patch changes this to clear the MSR VSX bit when the user doesn't provide
enough space. This indicates that there is no valid VSX state in the user
context.
This is needed to support get/set/make/swapcontext for applications that use
VSX but only provide a small context. For example, getcontext in glibc
provides a smaller context since the VSX registers don't need to be saved over
the glibc function call. But since the program calling getcontext may have
used VSX, the kernel currently says the VSX state is valid when it's not. If
the returned context is then used in setcontext (ie. a small context without
VSX but with MSR VSX set), the kernel will refuse the context. This situation
has been reported by the glibc community.
Based on patch from Carlos O'Donell.

"Implement arch_get_random_long/int() for powernv" added a usage when
SMP=n, breaking the build.
Move cpu_to_chip_id() into prom.c so it is available for SMP=n builds.
We would move the extern to prom.h, but that breaks the include in
topology.h. Instead we leave it in smp.h, but move it out of the
CONFIG_SMP #ifdef. We also need to include asm/smp.h in rng.c, because
the linux version skips asm/smp.h on UP. What a mess.

Pull powerpc LE updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"With my previous pull request I mentioned some remaining Little Endian
patches, notably support for our new ABI, which I was sitting on
making sure it was all finalized.
The toolchain folks confirmed it now, the new ABI is stable and merged
with gcc, so we are all good. Oh and we actually missed the actual
Kconfig switch for LE so here it is, along with a couple more bug
fixes.
I have more fixes but not related to LE so I'll send them as a
separate pull request tomorrow, let's get this one out of the way.
Note that this supports running user space binaries using the new ABI,
but the kernel itself still needs to be built with the old one. We'll
bring fixes for that after -rc1.
Here's Anton log that goes with this series:
This patch series adds support for the new ABI, LPAR support for
H_SET_MODE and finally adds a kconfig option and defconfig.
ABIv2 support was recently committed to binutils and gcc, and should
be merged into glibc soon. There are a number of very nice
improvements including the removal of function descriptors. Rusty's
kernel patches allow binaries of either ABI to work, easing the
transition"
* 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc:
powerpc: Wrong DWARF CFI in the kernel vdso for little-endian / ELFv2
powerpc: Add pseries_le_defconfig
powerpc: Add CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN kernel config option.
powerpc: Don't use ELFv2 ABI to build the kernel
powerpc: ELF2 binaries signal handling
powerpc: ELF2 binaries launched directly.
powerpc: Set eflags correctly for ELF ABIv2 core dumps.
powerpc: Add TIF_ELF2ABI flag.
pseries: Add H_SET_MODE to change exception endianness
powerpc/pseries: Fix endian issues in pseries EEH code
I've finally tracked down why my CR signal-unwind test case still
fails on little-endian. The problem turned to be that the kernel
installs a signal trampoline in the vDSO, and provides a DWARF CFI
record for that trampoline. This CFI describes the save location
for CR:
rsave (70, 38*RSIZE + (RSIZE - CRSIZE))
which is correct for big-endian, but points to the wrong word on
little-endian. This is wrong no matter which ABI.
In addition, for the ELFv2 ABI, we should not only provide a CFI
record for register 70 (cr2), but for all CR fields separately.
Strictly speaking, I guess this would mean providing two separate
vDSO images, one for ELFv1 processes and one for ELFv2 processes (or
maybe playing some tricks with conditional DWARF expressions).
However, having CFI records for the other CR fields in ELFv1 is not
actually wrong, they just will be ignored. So it seems the simplest
fix would be just to always provide CFI for all the fields.

Little endian ppc64 is getting an exciting new ABI. This is reflected
by the bottom two bits of e_flags in the ELF header:
0 == legacy binaries (v1 ABI)
1 == binaries using the old ABI (compiled with a new toolchain)
2 == binaries using the new ABI.
We store this in a thread flag, because we need to set it in core

Pull DMA mask updates from Russell King:
"This series cleans up the handling of DMA masks in a lot of drivers,
fixing some bugs as we go.
Some of the more serious errors include:
- drivers which only set their coherent DMA mask if the attempt to
set the streaming mask fails.
- drivers which test for a NULL dma mask pointer, and then set the
dma mask pointer to a location in their module .data section -
which will cause problems if the module is reloaded.
To counter these, I have introduced two helper functions:
- dma_set_mask_and_coherent() takes care of setting both the
streaming and coherent masks at the same time, with the correct
error handling as specified by the API.
- dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() which resolves the problem of
drivers forcefully setting DMA masks. This is more a marker for
future work to further clean these locations up - the code which
creates the devices really should be initialising these, but to fix
that in one go along with this change could potentially be very
disruptive.
The last thing this series does is prise away some of Linux's addition
to "DMA addresses are physical addresses and RAM always starts at
zero". We have ARM LPAE systems where all system memory is above 4GB
physical, hence having DMA masks interpreted by (eg) the block layers
as describing physical addresses in the range 0..DMAMASK fails on
these platforms. Santosh Shilimkar addresses this in this series; the
patches were copied to the appropriate people multiple times but were
ignored.
Fixing this also gets rid of some ARM weirdness in the setup of the
max*pfn variables, and brings ARM into line with every other Linux
architecture as far as those go"

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware
firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.
At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
(arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.
Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and
therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
byte codes to do such lookups.
Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.
Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation,
one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
this is very expensive.
Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
new stuff.
Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
worked so hard on this.
2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.
In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
cases are added.
3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
and Yang Yingliang.
4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
Sujir.
5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.
6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
From Francesco Fusco.
7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn
Bohrer.
10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able
to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet.
11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang
Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
Falico.
12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental
operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.
Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
our generic flow dissector.
14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned
up in this way, from Jingoo Han.
15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel
Borkmann.
17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
(re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang.
