um: Eliminate null test after alloc_bootmem
This adds support for kcov to UML.
There is a small problem where UML will randomly segfault during boot;
this is because current_thread_info() occasionally returns an invalid
(non-NULL) pointer and we try to dereference it in
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(). I consider this a bug in UML itself and this
patch merely exposes it.

Currently UML sets up physical memory very early,
long before setup_arch() was called by the kernel main
function.
This can cause problems when code paths in UML's memory setup
code assume that the kernel is already running.
i.e. when kmemleak is enabled it will evaluate current()
in free_bootmem(). That early current() is undefined and
UML explodes.
Solve the problem by setting up physical memory in setup_arch(),
at this stage the kernel has materialized and basic infrastructure
such as current() works.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

Pull UML updates from Richard Weinberger:
"This contains a nice FPU fixup from Eli Cooper for UML"
* 'for-linus-4.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/uml:
um: add extended processor state save/restore support
um: extend fpstate to _xstate to support YMM registers
um: fix FPU state preservation around signal handlers
This patch extends save_fp_registers() and restore_fp_registers() to use
PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET with the XSTATE note type, adding
support for new processor state extensions between context switches.
When the new ptrace requests are unavailable, it falls back to the old
PTRACE_GETFPREGS and PTRACE_SETFPREGS methods, which have been renamed to
save_i387_registers() and restore_i387_registers().
Now these functions expect *fp_regs to have the space of an _xstate struct.
Thus, this also makes ptrace in UML responde to PTRACE_GETFPREGS/_SETFPREG
requests with a user_i387_struct (thus independent from HOST_FP_SIZE), and
by calling save_i387_registers() and restore_i387_registers() instead of
the extended save_fp_registers() and restore_fp_registers() functions.

- most __pte_alloc() callers do speculative check for pmd_none(),
before taking ptl: let's introduce pte_alloc() macro which does
the check.
The only direct user of __pte_alloc left is userfaultfd, which has
different expectation about atomicity wrt pmd.
- pte_alloc_map() and pte_alloc_map_lock() are redefined using
pte_alloc().

UML is using an obsolete itimer call for
all timers and "polls" for kernel space timer firing
in its userspace portion resulting in a long list
of bugs and incorrect behaviour(s). It also uses
ITIMER_VIRTUAL for its timer which results in the
timer being dependent on it running and the cpu
load.
This patch fixes this by moving to posix high resolution
timers firing off CLOCK_MONOTONIC and relaying the timer
correctly to the UML userspace.
Fixes:
- crashes when hosts suspends/resumes
- broken userspace timers - effecive ~40Hz instead
of what they should be. Note - this modifies skas behavior
by no longer setting an itimer per clone(). Timer events
are relayed instead.
- kernel network packet scheduling disciplines
- tcp behaviour especially under load
- various timer related corner cases
Finally, overall responsiveness of userspace is better.

Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and
disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers.
Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect
whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly
disabled).
In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults.
With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt
counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs.
We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling
might_sleep().
Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this
is needed.
faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in
linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

atomic_notifier_chain_register() and uml_postsetup() do call kernel code
that rely on the "current" kernel macro and a valid task_struct resp.
thread_info struct. Give those functions a valid stack by moving
uml_postsetup() in the init_thread stack. This moves enables a panic()
call in this early code to generate a valid stacktrace, instead of
crashing.
E.g. when an UML kernel is started with an initrd but too few physical
memory the panic() call get's actually processed.

Add a kmsg_dumper, that dumps the kmsg buffer to stdout, when no console
is available. This an enables the printing of early panic() calls
triggered in uml_postsetup().
When a panic() call happens so early in the UML kernel no
earlyprintk/console is available yet, but with a kmsg_dumper in place
the kernel message buffer will be outputted to the user, to give a
better hint, of what the failure was.

Highmem was always buggy and experimental on UML(i386).
In times where 64 bit computers are default we can
remove that experimental code.

At times where UML used the TT mode to operate it had
kind of SMP support. It never got finished nor was
stable.
Let's rip out that cruft and stop confusing developers
which do tree-wide SMP cleanups.
If someone wants SMP support UML it has do be done from scratch.

Before we had SKAS0 UML had two modes of operation
TT (tracing thread) and SKAS3/4 (separated kernel address space).
TT was known to be insecure and got removed a long time ago.
SKAS3/4 required a few (3 or 4) patches on the host side which never went
mainline. The last host patch is 10 years old.
With SKAS0 mode (separated kernel address space using 0 host patches),
default since 2005, SKAS3/4 is obsolete and can be removed.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d45 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

1) uml kernel bootmem managed through bootmem_data->node_bootmem_map,
not the struct page array, so the array is unnecessary.
2) the bootmem struct page array has been pointed by a *local* pointer,
struct page *map, in init_maps function. The array can be accessed only
in init_maps's scope. As a result, uml kernel wastes about 1% of total
memory.
