In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248
Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

Despite the current efforts to read CR2 before tracing happens there still
exist a number of possible holes:
idtentry page_fault do_page_fault has_error_code=1
call error_entry
TRACE_IRQS_OFF
call trace_hardirqs_off*
#PF // modifies CR2
CALL_enter_from_user_mode
__context_tracking_exit()
trace_user_exit(0)
#PF // modifies CR2
call do_page_fault
address = read_cr2(); /* whoopsie */
And similar for i386.
Fix it by pulling the CR2 read into the entry code, before any of that
stuff gets a chance to run and ruin things.

PVH guest needs PV extentions to work, so "nopv" parameter should be
ignored for PVH but not for HVM guest.
If PVH guest boots up via the Xen-PVH boot entry, xen_pvh is set early,
we know it's PVH guest and ignore "nopv" parameter directly.
If PVH guest boots up via the normal boot entry same as HVM guest, it's
hard to distinguish PVH and HVM guest at that time. In this case, we
have to panic early if PVH is detected and nopv is enabled to avoid a
worse situation later.
Remove static from bool_x86_init_noop/x86_op_int_noop so they could be
used globally. Move xen_platform_hvm() after xen_hvm_guest_late_init()
to avoid compile error.

In virtualization environment, PV extensions (drivers, interrupts,
timers, etc) are enabled in the majority of use cases which is the
best option.
However, in some cases (kexec not fully working, benchmarking)
we want to disable PV extensions. We have "xen_nopv" for that purpose
but only for XEN. For a consistent admin experience a common command
line parameter "nopv" set across all PV guest implementations is a
better choice.
There are guest types which just won't work without PV extensions,
like Xen PV, Xen PVH and jailhouse. add a "ignore_nopv" member to
struct hypervisor_x86 set to true for those guest types and call
the detect functions only if nopv is false or ignore_nopv is true.

The ptrace ABI change was a prerequisite to the proposed design for

well.
This also modifies the test case so that it tests the preexisting behavior.

Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs changes for 5.3-rc1
It's a lot of different patches, all across the tree due to some api
changes and lots of debugfs cleanups. Because of this, there is going
to be some merge issues with your tree at the moment, I'll follow up
with the expected resolutions to make it easier for you.
Other than the debugfs cleanups, in this set of changes we have:
- bus iteration function cleanups (will cause build warnings
with s390 and coresight drivers in your tree)
- scripts/get_abi.pl tool to display and parse Documentation/ABI
entries in a simple way
- cleanups to Documenatation/ABI/ entries to make them parse
easier due to typos and other minor things
- default_attrs use for some ktype users
- driver model documentation file conversions to .rst
- compressed firmware file loading
- deferred probe fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with a bunch of merge
issues that Stephen has been patient with me for. Other than the merge
issues, functionality is working properly in linux-next :)

This patch is a pre-requisite for enabling KASAN bitops instrumentation;
using static_cpu_has instead of boot_cpu_has avoids instrumentation of
test_bit inside the uaccess region. With instrumentation, the KASAN
check would otherwise be flagged by objtool.
For consistency, kernel/signal.c was changed to mirror this change,
however, is never instrumented with KASAN (currently unsupported under
x86 32bit).

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A collection of assorted fixes:
- Fix for the pinned cr0/4 fallout which escaped all testing efforts
because the kvm-intel module was never loaded when the kernel was
compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n. The cr0/4 accessors are moved out
of line and static key is now solely used in the core code and
therefore can stay in the RO after init section. So the kvm-intel
and other modules do not longer reference the (read only) static
key which the module loader tried to update.
- Prevent an infinite loop in arch_stack_walk_user() by breaking out
of the loop once the return address is detected to be 0.
- Prevent the int3_emulate_call() selftest from corrupting the stack
when KASAN is enabled. KASASN clobbers more registers than covered
by the emulated call implementation. Convert the int3_magic()
selftest to a ASM function so the compiler cannot KASANify it.
- Unbreak the build with old GCC versions and with the Gold linker by
reverting the 'Move of _etext to the actual end of .text'. In both
cases the build fails with 'Invalid absolute R_X86_64_32S
relocation: _etext'
- Initialize the context lock for init_mm, which was never an issue
until the alternatives code started to use a temporary mm for
patching.
- Fix a build warning vs. the LOWMEM_PAGES constant where clang
complains rightfully about a signed integer overflow in the shift
operation by converting the operand to an ULL.
- Adjust the misnamed ENDPROC() of common_spurious in the 32bit entry
code"

The pinning of sensitive CR0 and CR4 bits caused a boot crash when loading
the kvm_intel module on a kernel compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n.
The reason is that the static key which controls the pinning is marked RO
after init. The kvm_intel module contains a CR4 write which requires to
update the static key entry list. That obviously does not work when the key
is in a RO section.
With CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled this does not happen because the CR4 write
uses the paravirt indirection and the actual write function is built in.
As the key is intended to be immutable after init, move
native_write_cr0/4() out of line.
While at it consolidate the update of the cr4 shadow variable and store the
value right away when the pinning is initialized on a booting CPU. No point
in reading it back 20 instructions later. This allows to confine the static
key and the pinning variable to cpu/common and allows to mark them static.

It turns out that int3_selftest() is corrupting the stack. The problem is
that the KASAN-ified version of int3_magic() is much less trivial than the
C code appears. It clobbers several unexpected registers. So when the
selftest's INT3 is converted to an emulated call to int3_magic(), the
registers are clobbered and Bad Things happen when the function returns.
Fix this by converting int3_magic() to the trivial ASM function it should
be, avoiding all calling convention issues. Also add ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT to
the INT3 ASM, since it contains a 'CALL'.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
"A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
task.
The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.
Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.
This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"

"Bug fixes, code clean up, and new features:
- IMA policy rules can be defined in terms of LSM labels, making the
IMA policy dependent on LSM policy label changes, in particular LSM
label deletions. The new environment, in which IMA-appraisal is
being used, frequently updates the LSM policy and permits LSM label
deletions.
- Prevent an mmap'ed shared file opened for write from also being
mmap'ed execute. In the long term, making this and other similar
changes at the VFS layer would be preferable.
- The IMA per policy rule template format support is needed for a
couple of new/proposed features (eg. kexec boot command line
measurement, appended signatures, and VFS provided file hashes).
- Other than the "boot-aggregate" record in the IMA measuremeent

governor to higher frequencies and less energy efficient CPU modes.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- rwsem scalability improvements, phase #2, by Waiman Long, which are
rather impressive:
"On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system with 40 reader
and writer locking threads, the min/mean/max locking operations
done in a 5-second testing window before the patchset were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/1,808/1,810
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/50,344/151,255
After the patchset, they became:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 30,057/31,359/32,741
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 94,466/95,845/97,098"
There's a lot of changes to the locking implementation that makes
it similar to qrwlock, including owner handoff for more fair
locking.
Another microbenchmark shows how across the spectrum the
improvements are:
"With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the
total locking rates (in kops/s) on a 2-socket Skylake system
with equal numbers of readers and writers (mixed) before and
after this patchset were:
# of Threads Before Patch After Patch
------------ ------------ -----------
2 2,618 4,193
4 1,202 3,726
8 802 3,622
16 729 3,359
32 319 2,826
64 102 2,744"
The changes are extensive and the patch-set has been through
several iterations addressing various locking workloads. There
might be more regressions, but unless they are pathological I
believe we want to use this new implementation as the baseline
going forward.
- jump-label optimizations by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira: the primary
motivation was to remove IPI disturbance of isolated RT-workload
CPUs, which resulted in the implementation of batched jump-label
updates. Beyond the improvement of the real-time characteristics
kernel, in one test this patchset improved static key update
overhead from 57 msecs to just 1.4 msecs - which is a nice speedup
as well.
- atomic64_t cross-arch type cleanups by Mark Rutland: over the last
~10 years of atomic64_t existence the various types used by the
APIs only had to be self-consistent within each architecture -
which means they became wildly inconsistent across architectures.
Mark puts and end to this by reworking all the atomic64
implementations to use 's64' as the base type for atomic64_t, and
to ensure that this type is consistently used for parameters and
return values in the API, avoiding further problems in this area.
- A large set of small improvements to lockdep by Yuyang Du: type
cleanups, output cleanups, function return type and othr cleanups
all around the place.
- A set of percpu ops cleanups and fixes by Peter Zijlstra.
- Misc other changes - please see the Git log for more details"

Pull x86 CPU feature updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for x86 CPU features:
- Support for UMWAIT/UMONITOR, which allows to use MWAIT and MONITOR
instructions in user space to save power e.g. in HPC workloads
which spin wait on synchronization points.
The maximum time a MWAIT can halt in userspace is controlled by the
kernel and can be adjusted by the sysadmin.
- Speed up the MTRR handling code on CPUs which support cache
self-snooping correctly.
On those CPUs the wbinvd() invocations can be omitted which speeds
up the MTRR setup by a factor of 50.
- Support for the new x86 vendor Zhaoxin who develops processors
based on the VIA Centaur technology.
- Prevent 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' from affecting isolated NOHZ_FULL CPUs
by sending IPIs to retrieve the CPU frequency and use the cached
values instead.
- The addition and late revert of the FSGSBASE support. The revert
was required as it turned out that the code still has hard to
diagnose issues. Yet another engineering trainwreck...
