The functions devm_memremap_pages() and devm_memremap_pages_release() use
different ways to calculate the section-aligned amount of memory. The
latter function may use an incorrect size if the memory region is small
but straddles a section border.
Use the same code for both.

This new interface is similar to how struct device (and many others)
work. The caller initializes a 'struct dev_pagemap' as required
and calls 'devm_memremap_pages'. This allows the pagemap structure to
be embedded in another structure and thus container_of can be used. In
this way application specific members can be stored in a containing
struct.
This will be used by the P2P infrastructure and HMM could probably
be cleaned up to use it as well (instead of having it's own, similar
'hmm_devmem_pages_create' function).

'struct page_map' is a private structure of 'struct dev_pagemap' but the
latter replicates all the same fields as the former so there isn't much

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update after the kaisered maintainer finally found time
to handle regression reports.
- The larger part addresses a regression caused by the x86 vector
management rework.
The reservation based model does not work reliably for MSI
interrupts, if they cannot be masked (yes, yet another hw
engineering trainwreck). The reason is that the reservation mode
assigns a dummy vector when the interrupt is allocated and switches
to a real vector when the interrupt is requested.
If the MSI entry cannot be masked then the initialization might
raise an interrupt before the interrupt is requested, which ends up
as spurious interrupt and causes device malfunction and worse. The
fix is to exclude MSI interrupts which do not support masking from
reservation mode and assign a real vector right away.
- Extend the extra lockdep class setup for nested interrupts with a
class for the recently added irq_desc::request_mutex so lockdep can
differeniate and does not emit false positive warnings.
- A ratelimit guard for the bad irq printout so in case a bad irq
comes back immediately the system does not drown in dmesg spam"

The conditions in irq_exit() to invoke tick_nohz_irq_exit() which
subsequently invokes tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() are:
if ((idle_cpu(cpu) && !need_resched()) || tick_nohz_full_cpu(cpu))
If need_resched() is not set, but a timer softirq is pending then this is
an indication that the softirq code punted and delegated the execution to
softirqd. need_resched() is not true because the current interrupted task
takes precedence over softirqd.
Invoking tick_nohz_irq_exit() in this case can cause an endless loop of
timer interrupts because the timer wheel contains an expired timer, but
softirqs are not yet executed. So it returns an immediate expiry request,
which causes the timer to fire immediately again. Lather, rinse and
repeat....
Prevent that by adding a check for a pending timer soft interrupt to the
conditions in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() which avoid calling
get_next_timer_interrupt(). That keeps the tick sched timer on the tick and
prevents a repetitive programming of an already expired timer.

During boot and before base::nohz_active is set in the timer bases, deferrable
timers are enqueued into the standard timer base. This works correctly as
long as base::nohz_active is false.
Once it base::nohz_active is set and a timer which was enqueued before that
is accessed the lock selector code choses the lock of the deferred
base. This causes unlocked access to the standard base and in case the
timer is removed it does not clear the pending flag in the standard base
bitmap which causes get_next_timer_interrupt() to return bogus values.
To prevent that, the deferrable timers must be enqueued in the deferrable
base, even when base::nohz_active is not set. Those deferrable timers also
need to be expired unconditional.

The new reservation mode for interrupts assigns a dummy vector when the
interrupt is allocated and assigns a real vector when the interrupt is
requested. The reservation mode prevents vector pressure when devices with
a large amount of queues/interrupts are initialized, but only a minimal
subset of those queues/interrupts is actually used.
This mode has an issue with MSI interrupts which cannot be masked. If the
driver is not careful or the hardware emits an interrupt before the device
irq is requestd by the driver then the interrupt ends up on the dummy
vector as a spurious interrupt which can cause malfunction of the device or
in the worst case a lockup of the machine.
Change the logic for the reservation mode so that the early activation of
MSI interrupts checks whether:
- the device is a PCI/MSI device
- the reservation mode of the underlying irqdomain is activated
- PCI/MSI masking is globally enabled
- the PCI/MSI device uses either MSI-X, which supports masking, or
MSI with the maskbit supported.
If one of those conditions is false, then clear the reservation mode flag
in the irq data of the interrupt and invoke irq_domain_activate_irq() with
the reserve argument cleared. In the x86 vector code, clear the can_reserve
flag in the vector allocation data so a subsequent free_irq() won't create
the same situation again. The interrupt stays assigned to a real vector
until pci_disable_msi() is invoked and all allocations are undone.

When analyzing the fallout of the x86 vector allocation rework it turned
out that the error handling in msi_domain_alloc_irqs() is broken.
If MSI_FLAG_MUST_REACTIVATE is set for a MSI domain then it clears the
activation flag for a successfully initialized msi descriptor. If a
subsequent initialization fails then the error handling code path does not
deactivate the interrupt because the activation flag got cleared.
Move the clearing of the activation flag outside of the initialization loop
so that an eventual failure can be cleaned up correctly.

Since the recent remote cpufreq callback work, its possible that a cpufreq
update is triggered from a remote CPU. For single policies however, the current
code uses the local CPU when trying to determine if the remote sg_cpu entered
idle or is busy. This is incorrect. To remedy this, compare with the nohz tick
idle_calls counter of the remote CPU.

were getting corrupted. In the process I found three bugs. One was the
culprit, but the other two scared me. After deeper investigation, they
were not as major as I thought they were, due to a signed compared to
an unsigned that prevented a negative number from doing actual harm.
The two bigger bugs:
- Mask the ring buffer data page length. There are data flags at the
high bits of the length field. These were not cleared via the
length function, and the length could return a negative number.
(Although the number returned was unsigned, but was assigned to a
signed number) Luckily, this value was compared to PAGE_SIZE which is
unsigned and kept it from entering the path that could have caused damage.
- Check the page usage before reusing the ring buffer reader page.
TCP increments the page ref when passing the page off to the network.
The page is passed back to the ring buffer for use on free. But
the page could still be in use by the TCP stack.
Minor bugs:
- Related to the first bug. No need to clear out the unused ring buffer
data before sending to user space. It is now done by the ring buffer
code itself.
- Reset pointers after free on error path. There were some cases in
the error path that pointers were freed but not set to NULL, and could
have them freed again, having a pointer freed twice.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"While doing tests on tracing over the network, I found that the
packets were getting corrupted.
In the process I found three bugs.
One was the culprit, but the other two scared me. After deeper
investigation, they were not as major as I thought they were, due to a
signed compared to an unsigned that prevented a negative number from
doing actual harm.
The two bigger bugs:
- Mask the ring buffer data page length. There are data flags at the
high bits of the length field. These were not cleared via the
length function, and the length could return a negative number.
(Although the number returned was unsigned, but was assigned to a
signed number) Luckily, this value was compared to PAGE_SIZE which
is unsigned and kept it from entering the path that could have
caused damage.
- Check the page usage before reusing the ring buffer reader page.
TCP increments the page ref when passing the page off to the
network. The page is passed back to the ring buffer for use on
free. But the page could still be in use by the TCP stack.
Minor bugs:
- Related to the first bug. No need to clear out the unused ring
buffer data before sending to user space. It is now done by the
ring buffer code itself.
- Reset pointers after free on error path. There were some cases in
the error path that pointers were freed but not set to NULL, and
could have them freed again, having a pointer freed twice"

Jing Xia and Chunyan Zhang reported that on failing to allocate part of the
tracing buffer, memory is freed, but the pointers that point to them are not
initialized back to NULL, and later paths may try to free the freed memory
again. Jing and Chunyan fixed one of the locations that does this, but
missed a spot.

Double free of the ring buffer happens when it fails to alloc new
ring buffer instance for max_buffer if TRACER_MAX_TRACE is configured.
The root cause is that the pointer is not set to NULL after the buffer
is freed in allocate_trace_buffers(), and the freeing of the ring
buffer is invoked again later if the pointer is not equal to Null,
as:
instance_mkdir()
|-allocate_trace_buffers()
|-allocate_trace_buffer(tr, &tr->trace_buffer...)
|-allocate_trace_buffer(tr, &tr->max_buffer...)
// allocate fail(-ENOMEM),first free
// and the buffer pointer is not set to null
|-ring_buffer_free(tr->trace_buffer.buffer)
// out_free_tr
|-free_trace_buffers()
|-free_trace_buffer(&tr->trace_buffer);
//if trace_buffer is not null, free again
|-ring_buffer_free(buf->buffer)
|-rb_free_cpu_buffer(buffer->buffers[cpu])
// ring_buffer_per_cpu is null, and
// crash in ring_buffer_per_cpu->pages

To free the reader page that is allocated with ring_buffer_alloc_read_page(),
ring_buffer_free_read_page() must be called. For faster performance, this
page can be reused by the ring buffer to avoid having to free and allocate
new pages.
The issue arises when the page is used with a splice pipe into the
networking code. The networking code may up the page counter for the page,
and keep it active while sending it is queued to go to the network. The
incrementing of the page ref does not prevent it from being reused in the
ring buffer, and this can cause the page that is being sent out to the
network to be modified before it is sent by reading new data.
Add a check to the page ref counter, and only reuse the page if it is not
being used anywhere else.

The ring_buffer_read_page() takes care of zeroing out any extra data in the
page that it returns. There's no need to zero it out again from the
consumer. It was removed from one consumer of this function, but
read_buffers_splice_read() did not remove it, and worse, it contained a
nasty bug because of it.

Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Two info bits were added to the "commit" part of the ring buffer data page
when returned to be consumed. This was to inform the user space readers that
events have been missed, and that the count may be stored at the end of the
page.
What wasn't handled, was the splice code that actually called a function to
return the length of the data in order to zero out the rest of the page
before sending it up to user space. These data bits were returned with the
length making the value negative, and that negative value was not checked.
It was compared to PAGE_SIZE, and only used if the size was less than
PAGE_SIZE. Luckily PAGE_SIZE is unsigned long which made the compare an
unsigned compare, meaning the negative size value did not end up causing a
large portion of memory to be randomly zeroed out.

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner:
"Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest
patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date,
but a late fixup made that moot.
- Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate
address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big
with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to
diagnose failures.
The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of
that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of
32bit wraparounds.
- Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already,
but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with
the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with
the fixmap code
- A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of
the TLB functions should be used for what.
- Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for
more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces
confusing.
- Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(),
which is only invoked on fork().
- Make vysycall more robust.
- A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check
PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the
C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out
of sync with the index enums.
- Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI.
- Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI
integration simpler and header files less convoluted.
- Documentation fixes and clarifications"

Do not allow root to convert valid pointers into unknown scalars.
In particular disallow:
ptr &= reg
ptr <<= reg
ptr += ptr
and explicitly allow:
ptr -= ptr
since pkt_end - pkt == length
1.
This minimizes amount of address leaks root can do.
In the future may need to further tighten the leaks with kptr_restrict.
2.
If program has such pointer math it's likely a user mistake and
when verifier complains about it right away instead of many instructions
later on invalid memory access it's easier for users to fix their progs.
3.
when register holding a pointer cannot change to scalar it allows JITs to
optimize better. Like 32-bit archs could use single register for pointers
instead of a pair required to hold 64-bit scalars.
4.
reduces architecture dependent behavior. Since code:
r1 = r10;
r1 &= 0xff;
if (r1 ...)
will behave differently arm64 vs x64 and offloaded vs native.
A significant chunk of ptr mangling was allowed by
commit f1174f77b5 ("bpf/verifier: rework value tracking")

There were various issues related to the limited size of integers used in
the verifier:
- `off + size` overflow in __check_map_access()
- `off + reg->off` overflow in check_mem_access()
- `off + reg->var_off.value` overflow or 32-bit truncation of
`reg->var_off.value` in check_mem_access()
- 32-bit truncation in check_stack_boundary()
Make sure that any integer math cannot overflow by not allowing
pointer math with large values.
Also reduce the scope of "scalar op scalar" tracking.

Properly handle register truncation to a smaller size.
The old code first mirrors the clearing of the high 32 bits in the bitwise
tristate representation, which is correct. But then, it computes the new
arithmetic bounds as the intersection between the old arithmetic bounds and
the bounds resulting from the bitwise tristate representation. Therefore,
when coerce_reg_to_32() is called on a number with bounds
[0xffff'fff8, 0x1'0000'0007], the verifier computes
[0xffff'fff8, 0xffff'ffff] as bounds of the truncated number.
This is incorrect: The truncated number could also be in the range [0, 7],
and no meaningful arithmetic bounds can be computed in that case apart from
the obvious [0, 0xffff'ffff].
Starting with v4.14, this is exploitable by unprivileged users as long as
the unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl isn't set.
Debian assigned CVE-2017-16996 for this issue.
