4bbfd7467c Merge branch 'for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull RCU changes from Paul E. McKenney:

- Convert RCU's BUG_ON() and similar calls to WARN_ON() and similar.

- Replace calls of RCU-bh and RCU-sched update-side functions
  to their vanilla RCU counterparts.  This series is a step
  towards complete removal of the RCU-bh and RCU-sched update-side
  functions.

  ( Note that some of these conversions are going upstream via their
    respective maintainers. )

- Documentation updates, including a number of flavor-consolidation
  updates from Joel Fernandes.

- Miscellaneous fixes.

- Automate generation of the initrd filesystem used for
  rcutorture testing.

- Convert spin_is_locked() assertions to instead use lockdep.

  ( Note that some of these conversions are going upstream via their
    respective maintainers. )

- SRCU updates, especially including a fix from Dennis Krein
  for a bag-on-head-class bug.

- RCU torture-test updates.

fc6f9c5778 rcutorture: Remove cbflood facility
Now that the forward-progress code does a full-bore continuous callback
flood lasting multiple seconds, there is little point in also posting a
mere 60,000 callbacks every second or so.  This commit therefore removes
the old cbflood testing.  Over time, it may be desirable to concurrently
do full-bore continuous callback floods on all CPUs simultaneously, but
one dragon at a time.

4b78317679 Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull STIBP fallout fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The performance destruction department finally got it's act together
  and came up with a cure for the STIPB regression:

   - Provide a command line option to control the spectre v2 user space
     mitigations. Default is either seccomp or prctl (if seccomp is
     disabled in Kconfig). prctl allows mitigation opt-in, seccomp
     enables the migitation for sandboxed processes.

   - Rework the code to handle the conditional STIBP/IBPB control and
     remove the now unused ptrace_may_access_sched() optimization
     attempt

   - Disable STIBP automatically when SMT is disabled

   - Optimize the switch_to() logic to avoid MSR writes and invocations
     of __switch_to_xtra().

   - Make the asynchronous speculation TIF updates synchronous to
     prevent stale mitigation state.

  As a general cleanup this also makes retpoline directly depend on
  compiler support and removes the 'minimal retpoline' option which just
  pretended to provide some form of security while providing none"

e0c274472d psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels
Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit
shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like
users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others.

With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set
from the commandline, this is a challenge.  Do the following things to
make it easier:

1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros
   to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled
   unless a user requests it at boot-time.

   To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=.

2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs
   when the feature is disabled.

In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says:

: The following is a comparision using CONFIG_PSI=n as a baseline against
: your patch and a vanilla kernel

6b3e64c237 x86/speculation: Add seccomp Spectre v2 user space protection mode
If 'prctl' mode of user space protection from spectre v2 is selected
on the kernel command-line, STIBP and IBPB are applied on tasks which
restrict their indirect branch speculation via prctl.

SECCOMP enables the SSBD mitigation for sandboxed tasks already, so it
makes sense to prevent spectre v2 user space to user space attacks as
well.

The Intel mitigation guide documents how STIPB works:
    
   Setting bit 1 (STIBP) of the IA32_SPEC_CTRL MSR on a logical processor
   prevents the predicted targets of indirect branches on any logical
   processor of that core from being controlled by software that executes
   (or executed previously) on another logical processor of the same core.

Ergo setting STIBP protects the task itself from being attacked from a task
running on a different hyper-thread and protects the tasks running on
different hyper-threads from being attacked.

While the document suggests that the branch predictors are shielded between
the logical processors, the observed performance regressions suggest that
STIBP simply disables the branch predictor more or less completely. Of
course the document wording is vague, but the fact that there is also no
requirement for issuing IBPB when STIBP is used points clearly in that
direction. The kernel still issues IBPB even when STIBP is used until Intel
clarifies the whole mechanism.

IBPB is issued when the task switches out, so malicious sandbox code cannot
mistrain the branch predictor for the next user space task on the same
logical processor.

fa1202ef22 x86/speculation: Add command line control for indirect branch speculation
Add command line control for user space indirect branch speculation
mitigations. The new option is: spectre_v2_user=

The initial options are:

    -  on:   Unconditionally enabled
    - off:   Unconditionally disabled
    -auto:   Kernel selects mitigation (default off for now)

When the spectre_v2= command line argument is either 'on' or 'off' this
implies that the application to application control follows that state even
if a contradicting spectre_v2_user= argument is supplied.

Kyle Huey reported that 'rr', a replay debugger, broke due to the following commit:

  af3bdb991a ("perf/x86/intel: Add a separate Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler")

Rework the 'disable_counter_freezing' __setup() parameter such that we
can explicitly enable/disable it and switch to default disabled.

To this purpose, rename the parameter to "perf_v4_pmi=" which is a much
better description and allows requiring a bool argument.

544b03da39 Documentation/security-bugs: Postpone fix publication in exceptional cases
At the request of the reporter, the Linux kernel security team offers to
postpone the publishing of a fix for up to 5 business days from the date
of a report.

While it is generally undesirable to keep a fix private after it has
been developed, this short window is intended to allow distributions to
package the fix into their kernel builds and permits early inclusion of
the security team in the case of a co-ordinated disclosure with other
parties. Unfortunately, discussions with major Linux distributions and
cloud providers has revealed that 5 business days is not sufficient to
achieve either of these two goals.

As an example, cloud providers need to roll out KVM security fixes to a
global fleet of hosts with sufficient early ramp-up and monitoring. An
end-to-end timeline of less than two weeks dramatically cuts into the
amount of early validation and increases the chance of guest-visible
regressions.

The consequence of this timeline mismatch is that security issues are
commonly fixed without the involvement of the Linux kernel security team
and are instead analysed and addressed by an ad-hoc group of developers
across companies contributing to Linux. In some cases, mainline (and
therefore the official stable kernels) can be left to languish for
extended periods of time. This undermines the Linux kernel security
process and puts upstream developers in a difficult position should they
find themselves involved with an undisclosed security problem that they
are unable to report due to restrictions from their employer.

To accommodate the needs of these users of the Linux kernel and
encourage them to engage with the Linux security team when security
issues are first uncovered, extend the maximum period for which fixes
may be delayed to 7 calendar days, or 14 calendar days in exceptional
cases, where the logistics of QA and large scale rollouts specifically
need to be accommodated. This brings parity with the linux-distros@
maximum embargo period of 14 calendar days.

806654a966 Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst"
Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:

  | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
  | formal, and "while" is the common word.
  |
  | [...]
  |
  | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
  | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
  | uses?

dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.

Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

5776ceccd4 cpuset: Expose cpus.effective and mems.effective on cgroup v2 root
Because of the fact that setting the "cpuset.sched.partition" in
a direct child of root can remove CPUs from the root's effective CPU
list, it makes sense to know what CPUs are left in the root cgroup for
scheduling purpose. So the "cpuset.cpus.effective" control file is now
exposed in the v2 cgroup root.

For consistency, the "cpuset.mems.effective" control file is exposed
as well.

4ec22e9c5a cpuset: Enable cpuset controller in default hierarchy
Given the fact that thread mode had been merged into 4.14, it is now
time to enable cpuset to be used in the default hierarchy (cgroup v2)
as it is clearly threaded.

The cpuset controller had experienced feature creep since its
introduction more than a decade ago. Besides the core cpus and mems
control files to limit cpus and memory nodes, there are a bunch of
additional features that can be controlled from the userspace. Some of
the features are of doubtful usefulness and may not be actively used.

This patch enables cpuset controller in the default hierarchy with
a minimal set of features, namely just the cpus and mems and their
effective_* counterparts.  We can certainly add more features to the
default hierarchy in the future if there is a real user need for them
later on.

Alternatively, with the unified hiearachy, it may make more sense
to move some of those additional cpuset features, if desired, to
memory controller or may be to the cpu controller instead of staying
with cpuset.

781f0766cc USB: Wait for extra delay time after USB_PORT_FEAT_RESET for quirky hub
Devices connected under Terminus Technology Inc. Hub (1a40:0101) may

[  206.063325] usb 3-2.4: reset full-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd

[  206.351671] usb 3-2.4: device descriptor read/64, error -32

Info for this hub:
T:  Bus=03 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#=  2 Spd=480 MxCh= 4
D:  Ver= 2.00 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=01 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1

Some expirements indicate that the USB devices connected to the hub are
innocent, it's the hub itself is to blame. The hub needs extra delay
time after it resets its port.

Hence wait for extra delay, if the device is connected to this quirky
hub.

7a1adfddaf mm: don't raise MEMCG_OOM event due to failed high-order allocation
It was reported that on some of our machines containers were restarted
with OOM symptoms without an obvious reason.  Despite there were almost no
memory pressure and plenty of page cache, MEMCG_OOM event was raised
occasionally, causing the container management software to think, that OOM
has happened.  However, no tasks have been killed.

The following investigation showed that the problem is caused by a failing
attempt to charge a high-order page.  In such case, the OOM killer is
never invoked.  As shown below, it can happen under conditions, which are
very far from a real OOM: e.g.  there is plenty of clean page cache and no
memory pressure.

There is no sense in raising an OOM event in this case, as it might
confuse a user and lead to wrong and excessive actions (e.g.  restart the
workload, as in my case).

Let's look at the charging path in try_charge().  If the memory usage is
about memory.max, which is absolutely natural for most memory cgroups, we
try to reclaim some pages.  Even if we were able to reclaim enough memory
for the allocation, the following check can fail due to a race with
another concurrent allocation:

    if (mem_cgroup_margin(mem_over_limit) >= nr_pages)
        goto retry;

For regular pages the following condition will save us from triggering
the OOM:

   if (nr_reclaimed && nr_pages <= (1 << PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER))
       goto retry;

But for high-order allocation this condition will intentionally fail.  The
reason behind is that we'll likely fall to regular pages anyway, so it's
ok and even preferred to return ENOMEM.

In this case the idea of raising MEMCG_OOM looks dubious.

Fix this by moving MEMCG_OOM raising to mem_cgroup_oom() after allocation
order check, so that the event won't be raised for high order allocations.
This change doesn't affect regular pages allocation and charging.

f682a97a00 mm: provide kernel parameter to allow disabling page init poisoning
Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5.

The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize
each node worth of persistent memory independently.  As a result we reduce
page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40
seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all
4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread
evenly over 4 nodes.

This patch (of 3):

On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount
of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN
value.  I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with
over 12TB of RAM.

In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and
then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the
arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds.  However in
doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system.

In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled
on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel
parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.

On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent
workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but
also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health,
fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others.

This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups.  In kernels
with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure,
and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only
the tasks inside the cgroup.

685f7e4f16 powerpc updates for 4.20
Notable changes:
 
  - A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of fairly
    complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.
 
  - Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for each
    process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27% speedup for our
    context switch benchmark on Power9.
 
  - Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print more debug
    information when they occur, and try to continue running by flushing the SLB
    and reloading, rather than treating them as fatal.
 
  - Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).
 
  - Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on 64-bit
    Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system memory, otherwise the
    percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.
 
  - Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task canary.
 
  - Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.
 
  - Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are presented
    to us as a single SMT8 core.
 
  - A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE flags.
 
  - Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface, allowing
    guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).
 
  - Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we need to use
    a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().
 
 Many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.

 	- ARM-SMMU driver now uses the generic deferred flushing
 	  and fast-path iova allocation code. This is expected to be a
 	  major performance improvement, as this allocation path scales
 	  a lot better.
 
 	- Support for r8a7744 in the Renesas iommu driver

14fdc2c531 Documentation/security-bugs: Clarify treatment of embargoed information
The Linux kernel security team has been accused of rejecting the idea of
security embargoes. This is incorrect, and could dissuade people from
reporting security issues to us under the false assumption that the
issue would leak prematurely.

Clarify the handling of embargoed information in our process
documentation.

     dependencies. (Reinette Chatre)

   - Implement counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and newer).
     This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding unnecessary MSR

cee1352f79 Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change in this cycle is the conclusion of the big
  'simplify RCU to two primary flavors' consolidation work - i.e.
  there's a single RCU flavor for any kernel variant (PREEMPT and
  !PREEMPT):

    - Consolidate the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors into a
      single flavor similar to RCU-sched in !PREEMPT kernels and into a
      single flavor similar to RCU-preempt (but also waiting on
      preempt-disabled sequences of code) in PREEMPT kernels.

      This branch also includes a refactoring of
      rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}() from Byungchul Park.

    - Now that there is only one RCU flavor in any given running kernel,
      the many "rsp" pointers are no longer required, and this cleanup
      series removes them.

    - This branch carries out additional cleanups made possible by the
      RCU flavor consolidation, including inlining now-trivial
      functions, updating comments and definitions, and removing
      now-unneeded rcutorture scenarios.

    - Now that there is only one flavor of RCU in any running kernel,
      there is also only on rcu_data structure per CPU. This means that
      the rcu_dynticks structure can be merged into the rcu_data
      structure, a task taken on by this branch. This branch also
      contains a -rt-related fix from Mike Galbraith.

  There were also other updates:

    - Documentation updates, including some good-eye catches from Joel
      Fernandes.

    - SRCU updates, most notably changes enabling call_srcu() to be
      invoked very early in the boot sequence.

    - Torture-test updates, including some preliminary work towards
      making rcutorture better able to find problems that result in
      insufficient grace-period forward progress.

    - Initial changes to RCU to better promote forward progress of grace
      periods, including fixing a bug found by Marius Hillenbrand and
      David Woodhouse, with the fix suggested by Peter Zijlstra"

* 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (140 commits)

bd0e6c9614 usb: hub: try old enumeration scheme first for high speed devices
The new scheme is required just to support legacy low and full-speed
devices. For high speed devices, it will slower the enumeration speed.
So in this patch we try the "old" enumeration scheme first for high speed
devices, and this is what Windows does since Windows 8.

d2266bbfa9 x86/earlyprintk: Add a force option for pciserial device
The "pciserial" earlyprintk variant helps much on many modern x86
platforms, but unfortunately there are still some platforms with PCI
UART devices which have the wrong PCI class code. In that case, the
current class code check does not allow for them to be used for logging.

Add a sub-option "force" which overrides the class code check and thus
the use of such device can be enforced.

d0346559a7 Merge branch 'for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull v4.20 RCU changes from Paul E. McKenney:

- Documentation updates, including some good-eye catches from
  Joel Fernandes.

- SRCU updates, most notably changes enabling call_srcu() to be
  invoked very early in the boot sequence.

- Torture-test updates, including some preliminary work towards
  making rcutorture better able to find problems that result in
  insufficient grace-period forward progress.

- Consolidate the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors into
  a single flavor similar to RCU-sched in !PREEMPT kernels and
  into a single flavor similar to RCU-preempt (but also waiting
  on preempt-disabled sequences of code) in PREEMPT kernels.  This
  branch also includes a refactoring of rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}()
  from Byungchul Park.

- Now that there is only one RCU flavor in any given running kernel,
  the many "rsp" pointers are no longer required, and this cleanup
  series removes them.

- This branch carries out additional cleanups made possible by
  the RCU flavor consolidation, including inlining how-trivial
  functions, updating comments and definitions, and removing
  now-unneeded rcutorture scenarios.

- Initial changes to RCU to better promote forward progress of
  grace periods, including fixing a bug found by Marius Hillenbrand
  and David Woodhouse, with the fix suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

- Now that there is only one flavor of RCU in any running kernel,
  there is also only on rcu_data structure per CPU.  This means
  that the rcu_dynticks structure can be merged into the rcu_data
  structure, a task taken on by this branch.  This branch also
  contains a -rt-related fix from Mike Galbraith.

af3bdb991a perf/x86/intel: Add a separate Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler
Implements counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and
newer). This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding
unnecessary MSR writes and make it more accurate.

The Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler is substantially different than
the older PMI handler.

Differences to the old handler:

- It relies on counter freezing, which eliminates several MSR
  writes from the PMI handler and lowers the overhead significantly.

  It makes the PMI handler more accurate, as all counters get
  frozen atomically as soon as any counter overflows. So there is
  much less counting of the PMI handler itself.

  With the freezing we don't need to disable or enable counters or
  PEBS. Only BTS which does not support auto-freezing still needs to
  be explicitly managed.

- The PMU acking is done at the end, not the beginning.
  This makes it possible to avoid manual enabling/disabling
  of the PMU, instead we just rely on the freezing/acking.

- The APIC is acked before reenabling the PMU, which avoids
  problems with LBRs occasionally not getting unfreezed on Skylake.

- Looping is only needed to workaround a corner case which several PMIs
  are very close to each other. For common cases, the counters are freezed
  during PMI handler. It doesn't need to do re-check.

This patch:

- Adds code to enable v4 counter freezing
- Fork <=v3 and >=v4 PMI handlers into separate functions.
- Add kernel parameter to disable counter freezing. It took some time to
  debug counter freezing, so in case there are new problems we added an
  option to turn it off. Would not expect this to be used until there
  are new bugs.
- Only for big core. The patch for small core will be posted later
  separately.

Performance:

When profiling a kernel build on Kabylake with different perf options,
measuring the length of all NMI handlers using the nmi handler
trace point:

V3 is without counter freezing.
V4 is with counter freezing.
The value is the average cost of the PMI handler.
(lower is better)

perf options    `           V3(ns) V4(ns)  delta

197ecb3802 xen/balloon: add runtime control for scrubbing ballooned out pages
Scrubbing pages on initial balloon down can take some time, especially
in nested virtualization case (nested EPT is slow). When HVM/PVH guest is
started with memory= significantly lower than maxmem=, all the extra
pages will be scrubbed before returning to Xen. But since most of them
weren't used at all at that point, Xen needs to populate them first
(from populate-on-demand pool). In nested virt case (Xen inside KVM)
this slows down the guest boot by 15-30s with just 1.5GB needed to be
returned to Xen.

Add runtime parameter to enable/disable it, to allow initially disabling
scrubbing, then enable it back during boot (for example in initramfs).
Such usage relies on assumption that a) most pages ballooned out during
initial boot weren't used at all, and b) even if they were, very few
secrets are in the guest at that time (before any serious userspace
kicks in).
Convert CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES to CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES_DEFAULT (also
enabled by default), controlling default value for the new runtime
switch.

a7ddcea58a Drop all 00-INDEX files from Documentation/
This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.

The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)

A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.

A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.

List of outdated 00-INDEX:
Documentation: (4/10)
Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
Documentation/timers: (1/0)
Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
Documentation/locking: (0/1)
Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
Documentation/power: (1/1)
Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
Documentation/arm: (1/0)
Documentation/x86: (0/9)
Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1)
Documentation/scsi: (4/4)
Documentation/filesystems: (2/9)
Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2)
Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2)
Documentation/kbuild: (0/4)
Documentation/spi: (1/0)
Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0)
Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
Documentation/fb: (0/1)
Documentation/block: (0/1)
Documentation/networking: (6/37)
Documentation/vm: (1/3)

Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
00-INDEX).

I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
if we just want to delete them anyway.

As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
see where the discussion is going.

c06aed0e31 rcu: Compute jiffies_till_sched_qs from other kernel parameters
The jiffies_till_sched_qs value used to determine how old a grace period
must be before RCU enlists the help of the scheduler to force a quiescent
state on the holdout CPU.  Currently, this defaults to HZ/10 regardless of
system size and may be set only at boot time.  This can be a problem for
very large systems, because if the values of the jiffies_till_first_fqs
and jiffies_till_next_fqs kernel parameters are left at their defaults,
they are calculated to increase as the number of CPUs actually configured
on the system increases.  Thus, on a sufficiently large system, RCU would
enlist the help of the scheduler before the grace-period kthread had a
chance to scan for idle CPUs, which wastes CPU time.

This commit therefore allows jiffies_till_sched_qs to be set, if desired,
but if left as default, computes is as jiffies_till_first_fqs plus twice
jiffies_till_next_fqs, thus allowing three force-quiescent-state scans
for idle CPUs.  This scales with the number of CPUs, providing sensible
default values.

Merge tag 'iommu-updates-v4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu

Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:

 - PASID table handling updates for the Intel VT-d driver. It implements
   a global PASID space now so that applications usings multiple devices
   will just have one PASID.

 - A new config option to make iommu passthroug mode the default.

 - New sysfs attribute for iommu groups to export the type of the
   default domain.

 - A debugfs interface (for debug only) usable by IOMMU drivers to
   export internals to user-space.

 - R-Car Gen3 SoCs support for the ipmmu-vmsa driver

 - The ARM-SMMU now aborts transactions from unknown devices and devices
   not attached to any domain.

 - Various cleanups and smaller fixes all over the place.

3d8b38eb81 mm, oom: introduce memory.oom.group
For some workloads an intervention from the OOM killer can be painful.
Killing a random task can bring the workload into an inconsistent state.

Historically, there are two common solutions for this
problem:
1) enabling panic_on_oom,
2) using a userspace daemon to monitor OOMs and kill
   all outstanding processes.

Both approaches have their downsides: rebooting on each OOM is an obvious
waste of capacity, and handling all in userspace is tricky and requires a
userspace agent, which will monitor all cgroups for OOMs.

In most cases an in-kernel after-OOM cleaning-up mechanism can eliminate
the necessity of enabling panic_on_oom.  Also, it can simplify the cgroup
management for userspace applications.

This commit introduces a new knob for cgroup v2 memory controller:
memory.oom.group.  The knob determines whether the cgroup should be
treated as an indivisible workload by the OOM killer.  If set, all tasks
belonging to the cgroup or to its descendants (if the memory cgroup is not
a leaf cgroup) are killed together or not at all.

To determine which cgroup has to be killed, we do traverse the cgroup
hierarchy from the victim task's cgroup up to the OOMing cgroup (or root)
and looking for the highest-level cgroup with memory.oom.group set.

Tasks with the OOM protection (oom_score_adj set to -1000) are treated as
an exception and are never killed.

This patch doesn't change the OOM victim selection algorithm.

8c9a134cae mm: clarify CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING and usage
The Kconfig text for CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING doesn't mention that it has to
be enabled explicitly.  This updates the documentation for that and adds a
note about CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING to the "page_poison" command line docs.
While here, change description of CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO too, as it's
not "random" data, but rather the fixed debugging value that would be used
when not zeroing.  Additionally removes a stray "bool" in the Kconfig.

7f1d23e607 tools/vm/page-types.c: include shared map counts
Add a new flag that will read kpagecount for each PFN and print out the
number of times the page is mapped along with the flags in the listing
view.

This information is useful in understanding and optimizing memory usage.
Identifying pages which are not shared allows us to focus on adjusting
the memory layout or access patterns for the sole owning process.
Knowing the number of processes that share a page tells us how many
other times we must make the same adjustments or how many processes to
potentially disable.

5e2d059b52 powerpc updates for 4.19
Notable changes:
 
  - A fix for a bug in our page table fragment allocator, where a page table page
    could be freed and reallocated for something else while still in use, leading
    to memory corruption etc. The fix reuses pt_mm in struct page (x86 only) for
    a powerpc only refcount.
 
  - Fixes to our pkey support. Several are user-visible changes, but bring us in
    to line with x86 behaviour and/or fix outright bugs. Thanks to Florian Weimer
    for reporting many of these.
 
  - A series to improve the hvc driver & related OPAL console code, which have
    been seen to cause hardlockups at times. The hvc driver changes in particular
    have been in linux-next for ~month.
 
  - Increase our MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 128TB when SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y.
 
  - Remove Power8 DD1 and Power9 DD1 support, neither chip should be in use
    anywhere other than as a paper weight.
 
  - An optimised memcmp implementation using Power7-or-later VMX instructions
 
  - Support for barrier_nospec on some NXP CPUs.
 
  - Support for flushing the count cache on context switch on some IBM CPUs
    (controlled by firmware), as a Spectre v2 mitigation.
 
  - A series to enhance the information we print on unhandled signals to bring it
    into line with other arches, including showing the offending VMA and dumping
    the instructions around the fault.

958f338e96 Merge branch 'l1tf-final' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
  engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
  unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
  Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
  address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
  other reserved bits set.

  If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
  page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
  bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
  the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
  the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
  and accessible.

  While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
  raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
  loading the data and making it available to other speculative
  instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
  unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.

  While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
  allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
  attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
  and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
  bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.

  The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646

  The mitigations provided by this pull request include:

   - Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
     present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.

   - Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.

   - SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
     by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
     the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs

   - Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
     and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
     and at runtime via sysfs

   - Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
     mitigations.

  Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
  patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
  heated, but at the end constructive discussions.

  There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
  might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
  workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
  complexity and limitations"

 "Early TSC based time stamping to allow better boot time analysis.

  This comes with a general cleanup of the TSC calibration code which
  grew warts and duct taping over the years and removes 250 lines of

aaca43fda7 PCI: Add "pci=disable_acs_redir=" parameter for peer-to-peer support
To support peer-to-peer traffic on a segment of the PCI hierarchy, we must
disable the ACS redirect bits for select PCI bridges.  The bridges must be
selected before the devices are discovered by the kernel and the IOMMU
groups created.  Therefore, add a kernel command line parameter to specify
devices which must have their ACS bits disabled.

The new parameter takes a list of devices separated by a semicolon.  Each
device specified will have its ACS redirect bits disabled.  This is
similar to the existing 'resource_alignment' parameter.

The ACS Request P2P Request Redirect, P2P Completion Redirect and P2P
Egress Control bits are disabled, which is sufficient to always allow
passing P2P traffic uninterrupted.  The bits are set after the kernel
(optionally) enables the ACS bits itself.  It is also done regardless of
whether the kernel or platform firmware sets the bits.

If the user tries to disable the ACS redirect for a device without the ACS
capability, print a warning to dmesg.

45db33709c PCI: Allow specifying devices using a base bus and path of devfns
When specifying PCI devices on the kernel command line using a
bus/device/function address, bus numbers can change when adding or
replacing a device, changing motherboard firmware, or applying kernel
parameters like "pci=assign-buses".  When bus numbers change, it's likely
the command line tweak will be applied to the wrong device.

Therefore, it is useful to be able to specify devices with a base bus
number and the path of devfns needed to get to it, similar to the "device
scope" structure in the Intel VT-d spec, Section 8.3.1.

Thus, we add an option to specify devices in the following format:

  [<domain>:]<bus>:<device>.<func>[/<device>.<func>]*

The path can be any segment within the PCI hierarchy of any length and
determined through the use of 'lspci -t'.  When specified this way, it is
less likely that a renumbered bus will result in a valid device
specification and the tweak won't be applied to the wrong device.

07d8d7e57c PCI: Make specifying PCI devices in kernel parameters reusable
Separate out the code to match a PCI device with a string (typically
originating from a kernel parameter) from the
pci_specified_resource_alignment() function into its own helper function.

While we are at it, this change fixes the kernel style of the function
(fixing a number of long lines and extra parentheses).

Additionally, make the analogous change to the kernel parameter
documentation: Separate the description of how to specify a PCI device
into its own section at the head of the "pci=" parameter.

This patch should have no functional alterations.
