An allocation attempt may require extending chunk->map array which
requires GFP_KERNEL context which isn't available for atomic
allocations. This patch ensures that chunk->map array usually keeps
some amount of available space by directly allocating buffer space
during GFP_KERNEL allocations and scheduling async extension during
atomic ones. This should make atomic allocation failures from map
space exhaustion rare.

Now that pcpu_alloc_area() can allocate only from populated areas,
it's easy to add atomic allocation support to [__]alloc_percpu().
Update pcpu_alloc() so that it accepts @gfp and skips all the blocking
operations and allocates only from the populated areas if @gfp doesn't
contain GFP_KERNEL. New interface functions [__]alloc_percpu_gfp()
are added.
While this means that atomic allocations are possible, this isn't
complete yet as there's no mechanism to ensure that certain amount of
populated areas is kept available and atomic allocations may keep
failing under certain conditions.

The next patch will conditionalize the population block in
pcpu_alloc() which will end up making a rather large indentation
change obfuscating the actual logic change. This patch puts the block
under "if (true)" so that the next patch can avoid indentation
changes. The defintions of the local variables which are used only in
the block are moved into the block.
This patch is purely cosmetic.

Update pcpu_alloc_area() so that it can skip unpopulated areas if the
new parameter @pop_only is true. This is implemented by a new
function, pcpu_fit_in_area(), which determines the amount of head
padding considering the alignment and populated state.
@pop_only is currently always false but this will be used to implement
atomic allocation.

At first, the percpu allocator required a sleepable context for both
alloc and free paths and used pcpu_alloc_mutex to protect everything.
Later, pcpu_lock was introduced to protect the index data structure so
that the free path can be invoked from atomic contexts. The
conversion only updated what's necessary and left most of the
allocation path under pcpu_alloc_mutex.
The percpu allocator is planned to add support for atomic allocation
and this patch restructures locking so that the coverage of
pcpu_alloc_mutex is further reduced.
* pcpu_alloc() now grab pcpu_alloc_mutex only while creating a new
chunk and populating the allocated area. Everything else is now
protected soley by pcpu_lock.
After this change, multiple instances of pcpu_extend_area_map() may
race but the function already implements sufficient synchronization
using pcpu_lock.
This also allows multiple allocators to arrive at new chunk
creation. To avoid creating multiple empty chunks back-to-back, a
new chunk is created iff there is no other empty chunk after
grabbing pcpu_alloc_mutex.
* pcpu_lock is now held while modifying chunk->populated bitmap.
After this, all data structures are protected by pcpu_lock.

percpu-km instantiates the whole chunk on creation and doesn't make
use of chunk->populated bitmap and leaves it as zero. While this
currently doesn't cause any problem, the inconsistency makes it
difficult to build further logic on top of chunk->populated. This
patch makes percpu-km fill chunk->populated on creation so that the
bitmap is always consistent.

Previously, pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() were called with the range which
may contain multiple target regions in it and
pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() iterated over the regions. This has the
benefit of batching up cache flushes for all the regions; however,
we're planning to add more bookkeeping logic around [de]population to
support atomic allocations and this delegation of iterations gets in
the way.
This patch moves the region iterations out of
pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() into its callers - pcpu_alloc() and
pcpu_reclaim() - so that we can later add logic to track more states
around them. This change may make cache and tlb flushes more frequent
but multi-region [de]populations are rare anyway and if this actually
becomes a problem, it's not difficult to factor out cache flushes as
separate callbacks which are directly invoked from percpu.c.

percpu-vm and percpu-km implement separate versions of
pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() and some part which is or should be common
are currently in the specific implementations. Make the following
changes.
* Allocate area clearing is moved from the pcpu_populate_chunk()
implementations to pcpu_alloc(). This makes percpu-km's version
noop.
* Quick exit tests in pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() of percpu-vm are moved
to their respective callers so that they are applied to percpu-km
too. This doesn't make any meaningful difference as both functions
are noop for percpu-km; however, this is more consistent and will
help implementing atomic allocation support.

pcpu_get_pages() creates the temp pages array if not already allocated
and returns the pointer to it. As the function is called from both
[de]population paths and depopulation can only happen after at least
one successful population, the param doesn't make any difference - the
allocation will always happen on the population path anyway.
Remove @may_alloc from pcpu_get_pages(). Also, add an lockdep
assertion pcpu_alloc_mutex instead of vaguely stating that the
exclusion is the caller's responsibility.

percpu-vm uses pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap() to acquire temp pages array
and populated bitmap and uses the two during [de]population. The temp
bitmap is used only to build the new bitmap that is copied to
chunk->populated after the operation succeeds; however, the new bitmap
can be trivially set after success without using the temp bitmap.
This patch removes the temp populated bitmap usage from percpu-vm.c.
* pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap() is renamed to pcpu_get_pages() and no
longer hands out the temp bitmap.
* @populated arugment is dropped from all the related functions.
@populated updates in pcpu_[un]map_pages() are dropped.
* Two loops in pcpu_map_pages() are merged.
* pcpu_[de]populated_chunk() modify chunk->populated bitmap directly
from @page_start and @page_end after success.

If pcpu_map_pages() fails midway, it unmaps the already mapped pages.
Currently, it doesn't flush tlb after the partial unmapping. This may
be okay in most cases as the established mapping hasn't been used at
that point but it can go wrong and when it goes wrong it'd be
extremely difficult to track down.

When pcpu_alloc_pages() fails midway, pcpu_free_pages() is invoked to
free what has already been allocated. The invocation is across the
whole requested range and pcpu_free_pages() will try to free all
non-NULL pages; unfortunately, this is incorrect as
pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap(), unlike what its comment suggests, doesn't
clear the pages array and thus the array may have entries from the
previous invocations making the partial failure path free incorrect
pages.
Fix it by open-coding the partial freeing of the already allocated
pages.

Fix TCP FRTO logic so that it always notices when snd_una advances,
indicating that any RTO after that point will be a new and distinct
loss episode.
Previously there was a very specific sequence that could cause FRTO to
fail to notice a new loss episode had started:
(1) RTO timer fires, enter FRTO and retransmit packet 1 in write queue
(2) receiver ACKs packet 1
(3) FRTO sends 2 more packets
(4) RTO timer fires again (should start a new loss episode)
The problem was in step (3) above, where tcp_process_loss() returned
early (in the spot marked "Step 2.b"), so that it never got to the
logic to clear icsk_retransmits. Thus icsk_retransmits stayed
non-zero. Thus in step (4) tcp_enter_loss() would see the non-zero
icsk_retransmits, decide that this RTO is not a new episode, and
decide not to cut ssthresh and remember the current cwnd and ssthresh
for undo.
There were two main consequences to the bug that we have
observed. First, ssthresh was not decreased in step (4). Second, when
there was a series of such FRTO (1-4) sequences that happened to be
followed by an FRTO undo, we would restore the cwnd and ssthresh from
before the entire series started (instead of the cwnd and ssthresh
from before the most recent RTO). This could result in cwnd and
ssthresh being restored to values much bigger than the proper values.

tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host
ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to
hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for
the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a
per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp
in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during
last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data
packets will be accepted by the new connection.
During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps
where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the
time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN
will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a
connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we
cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if
no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch
closes this loophole.
Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more
usable but only adds another safety check:
Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or
in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to
connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes
and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts
behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks.
tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled.
In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.

As of 4fddbf5d78 ("sit: strictly restrict incoming traffic to tunnel link device"),
when looking up a tunnel, tunnel's underlying interface (t->parms.link)
is verified to match incoming traffic's ingress device.
However the comparison was incorrectly based on skb->dev->iflink.
Instead, dev->ifindex should be used, which correctly represents the
interface from which the IP stack hands the ipip6 packets.
This allows setting up sit tunnels bound to vlan interfaces (otherwise
incoming ipip6 traffic on the vlan interface was dropped due to
ipip6_tunnel_lookup match failure).

Benjamin Herrenschmidt pointed out that I further missed modifying
update_vsyscall after the wall_to_mono value was changed to a
timespec64. This causes issues on powerpc32, which expects a 32bit
timespec.
This patch fixes the problem by properly converting from a timespec64 to
a timespec before passing the value on to the arch-specific vsyscall
logic.

this fix on to you directly. ]

Pull more powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here are some more powerpc bits for 3.17, essentially fixes.
The biggest series, also aimed at -stable, is from Aneesh and is the
result of weeks and weeks of debugging to find out why the heck or THP
implementation was occasionally triggering multi-hit errors in our
level 1 TLB. It ended up being a combination of issues including
subtleties as to how we should invalidate those special 'MPSS' pages
we use to allow the use of 16M pages inside 4K/64K "base page size"
segments (you really have to love our MMU !)
Another interesting one in the "OMG" category is the series from
Michael adding memory barriers to spin_is_locked(). That's also the
result of many days of debugging to figure out why the semaphore code
would occasionally crash in ways that made no sense. It ended up
being some creative lock stacking that was defeated by the fact that
our locks allow a load inside the locked section to be re-ordered with
the load of the lock value itself (I'm still of two mind about whether
to kill that once and for all by putting a heavier barrier back into
our lock implementation...). The fixes come with a long explanation
in the cset comments, feel free to read it if you feel like having a
headache today"

Group changes to the device tree. In preparation for adding device tree
overlay support, OF_DYNAMIC is reworked so that a set of device tree
changes can be prepared and applied to the tree all at once. OF_RECONFIG
notifiers see the most significant change here so that users always get
a consistent view of the tree. Notifiers generation is moved from before
a change to after it, and notifiers for a group of changes are emitted
after the entire block of changes have been applied
Automatic console selection from DT. Console drivers can now use
of_console_check() to see if the device node is specified as a console
device. If so then it gets added as a preferred console. UART devices
get this support automatically when uart_add_one_port() is called.
DT unit tests no longer depend on pre-loaded data in the device tree.
Data is loaded dynamically at the start of unit tests, and then unloaded
again when the tests have completed.
Also contains a few bugfixes for reserved regions and early memory setup.
