New version of bitmap_parse() is unified with bitmap_parse_list(),
and therefore:
- weakens rules on whitespaces and commas between hex chunks;
- in addition to
- allows passing UINT_MAX or any other big number as the length of input
string instead of actual string length.
The patch covers the cases.

bitmap_parse() is ineffective and full of opaque variables and opencoded
parts. It leads to hard understanding and usage of it. This rework
includes:
- remove bitmap_shift_left() call from the cycle. Now it makes the
complexity of the algorithm as O(nbits^2). In the suggested approach
the input string is parsed in reverse direction, so no shifts needed;
- relax requirement on a single comma and no white spaces between
chunks. It is considered useful in scripting, and it aligns with
bitmap_parselist();
- split bitmap_parse() to small readable helpers;
- make an explicit calculation of the end of input line at the
beginning, so users of the bitmap_parse() won't bother doing this.

Patch series "lib: rework bitmap_parse", v5.
Similarl to the recently revisited bitmap_parselist(), bitmap_parse() is
ineffective and overcomplicated. This series reworks it, aligns its
interface with bitmap_parselist() and makes it simpler to use.
The series also adds a test for the function and fixes usage of it in
cpumask_parse() according to the new design - drops the calculating of
length of an input string.
bitmap_parse() takes the array of numbers to be put into the map in the BE
order which is reversed to the natural LE order for bitmaps. For example,
to construct bitmap containing a bit on the position 42, we have to put a
line '400,0'. Current implementation reads chunk one by one from the
beginning ('400' before '0') and makes bitmap shift after each successful
parse. It makes the complexity of the whole process as O(n^2). We can do
it in reverse direction ('0' before '400') and avoid shifting, but it
requires reverse parsing helpers.
This patch (of 7):
New function works like strchrnul() with a length limited string.

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.
It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.
This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs
So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)
I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.
The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

Don't instrument 3 more files that contain debugging facilities and
produce large amounts of uninteresting coverage for every syscall.
The following snippets are sprinkled all over the place in kcov traces
in a debugging kernel. We already try to disable instrumentation of
stack unwinding code and of most debug facilities. I guess we did not
use fault-inject.c at the time, and stacktrace.c was somehow missed (or
something has changed in kernel/configs). This change both speeds up
kcov (kernel doesn't need to store these PCs, user-space doesn't need to
process them) and frees trace buffer capacity for more useful coverage.

Patch series "S390 hardware support for kernel zlib", v3.
With IBM z15 mainframe the new DFLTCC instruction is available. It
implements deflate algorithm in hardware (Nest Acceleration Unit - NXU)
with estimated compression and decompression performance orders of
magnitude faster than the current zlib.
This patchset adds s390 hardware compression support to kernel zlib.
The code is based on the userspace zlib implementation:
https://github.com/madler/zlib/pull/410
The coding style is also preserved for future maintainability. There is
only limited set of userspace zlib functions represented in kernel.
Apart from that, all the memory allocation should be performed in
advance. Thus, the workarea structures are extended with the parameter
lists required for the DEFLATE CONVENTION CALL instruction.
Since kernel zlib itself does not support gzip headers, only Adler-32
checksum is processed (also can be produced by DFLTCC facility). Like
it was implemented for userspace, kernel zlib will compress in hardware
on level 1, and in software on all other levels. Decompression will
always happen in hardware (when enabled).
Two DFLTCC compression calls produce the same results only when they
both are made on machines of the same generation, and when the
respective buffers have the same offset relative to the start of the
page. Therefore care should be taken when using hardware compression
when reproducible results are desired. However it does always produce
the standard conform output which can be inflated anyway.
The new kernel command line parameter 'dfltcc' is introduced to
configure s390 zlib hardware support:
Format: { on | off | def_only | inf_only | always }
on: s390 zlib hardware support for compression on
level 1 and decompression (default)
off: No s390 zlib hardware support
def_only: s390 zlib hardware support for deflate
only (compression on level 1)
inf_only: s390 zlib hardware support for inflate
only (decompression)
always: Same as 'on' but ignores the selected compression
level always using hardware support (used for debugging)
The main purpose of the integration of the NXU support into the kernel
zlib is the use of hardware deflate in btrfs filesystem with on-the-fly
compression enabled. Apart from that, hardware support can also be used
during boot for decompressing the kernel or the ramdisk image
With the patch for btrfs expanding zlib buffer from 1 to 4 pages (patch
6) the following performance results have been achieved using the
ramdisk with btrfs. These are relative numbers based on throughput rate
and compression ratio for zlib level 1:
Input data Deflate rate Inflate rate Compression ratio
NXU/Software NXU/Software NXU/Software
stream of zeroes 1.46 1.02 1.00
random ASCII data 10.44 3.00 0.96
ASCII text (dickens) 6,21 3.33 0.94
binary data (vmlinux) 8,37 3.90 1.02
This means that s390 hardware deflate can provide up to 10 times faster
compression (on level 1) and up to 4 times faster decompression (refers
to all compression levels) for btrfs zlib.
Disclaimer: Performance results are based on IBM internal tests using DD
command-line utility on btrfs on a Fedora 30 based internal driver in
native LPAR on a z15 system. Results may vary based on individual

return.
Notice that in case _ptr1_ happens to be NULL, krealloc() behaves
exactly like kmalloc().

- Time namespace support:
If a container migrates from one host to another then it expects that
clocks based on MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME are not subject to
disruption. Due to different boot time and non-suspended runtime these
clocks can differ significantly on two hosts, in the worst case time
goes backwards which is a violation of the POSIX requirements.
The time namespace addresses this problem. It allows to set offsets for
clock MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME once after creation and before tasks are
associated with the namespace. These offsets are taken into account by
timers and timekeeping including the VDSO.
Offsets for wall clock based clocks (REALTIME/TAI) are not provided by
this mechanism. While in theory possible, the overhead and code
complexity would be immense and not justified by the esoteric potential
use cases which were discussed at Plumbers '18.
The overhead for tasks in the root namespace (host time offsets = 0) is
in the noise and great effort was made to ensure that especially in the
VDSO. If time namespace is disabled in the kernel configuration the
code is compiled out.
Kudos to Andrei Vagin and Dmitry Sofanov who implemented this feature
and kept on for more than a year addressing review comments, finding
better solutions. A pleasant experience.
- Overhaul of the alarmtimer device dependency handling to ensure that
the init/suspend/resume ordering is correct.
- A new clocksource/event driver for Microchip PIT64
- Suspend/resume support for the Hyper-V clocksource
- The usual pile of fixes, updates and improvements mostly in the
driver code.

When this was originally ported, the 12-byte nonce vectors were left out
to keep things simple. I agree that we don't need nor want a library
interface for 12-byte nonces. But these test vectors were specially
crafted to look at issues in the underlying primitives and related
interactions. Therefore, we actually want to keep around all of the
test vectors, and simply have a helper function to test them with.
Secondly, the sglist-based chunking code in the library interface is
rather complicated, so this adds a developer-only test for ensuring that
all the book keeping is correct, across a wide array of possibilities.

The counters obj_pool_free, and obj_nr_tofree, and the flag obj_freeing are
read locklessly outside the pool_lock critical sections. If read with plain
accesses, this would result in data races.
This is addressed as follows:
* reads outside critical sections become READ_ONCE()s (pairing with
WRITE_ONCE()s added);
* writes become WRITE_ONCE()s (pairing with READ_ONCE()s added); since
writes happen inside critical sections, only the write and not the read
of RMWs needs to be atomic, thus WRITE_ONCE(var, var +/- X) is
sufficient.

The commit e91c2518a5 ("livepatch: Initialize shadow variables
safely by a custom callback") leads to the following static checker
warning:
samples/livepatch/livepatch-shadow-fix1.c:86 livepatch_fix1_dummy_alloc()
error: 'klp_shadow_alloc()' 'leak' too small (4 vs 8)
It is because klp_shadow_alloc() is used a wrong way:
int *leak;
shadow_leak = klp_shadow_alloc(d, SV_LEAK, sizeof(leak), GFP_KERNEL,
shadow_leak_ctor, leak);
The code is supposed to store the "leak" pointer into the shadow variable.
3rd parameter correctly passes size of the data (size of pointer). But
the 5th parameter is wrong. It should pass pointer to the data (pointer
to the pointer) but it passes the pointer directly.
It works because shadow_leak_ctor() handle "ctor_data" as the data
instead of pointer to the data. But it is semantically wrong and
confusing.
The same problem is also in the module used by selftests. In this case,
"pvX" variables are introduced. They represent the data stored in
the shadow variables.

If CRYPTO_CURVE25519 is y, CRYPTO_LIB_CURVE25519_GENERIC will be
y, but CRYPTO_LIB_CURVE25519 may be set to m, this causes build
errors:

curve25519-selftest.c:(.init.text+0x17e): undefined reference to `curve25519_base_arch'
This is because the curve25519 self-test code is being controlled
by the GENERIC option rather than the overall CURVE25519 option,
as is the case with blake2s. To recap, the GENERIC and ARCH options
for CURVE25519 are internal only and selected by users such as
the Crypto API, or the externally visible CURVE25519 option which
in turn is selected by wireguard. The self-test is specific to the
the external CURVE25519 option and should not be enabled by the
Crypto API.
This patch fixes this by splitting the GENERIC module from the
CURVE25519 module with the latter now containing just the self-test.

These two C implementations from Zinc -- a 32x32 one and a 64x64 one,
depending on the platform -- come from Andrew Moon's public domain
poly1305-donna portable code, modified for usage in the kernel. The
precomputation in the 32-bit version and the use of 64x64 multiplies in
the 64-bit version make these perform better than the code it replaces.
Moon's code is also very widespread and has received many eyeballs of
scrutiny.
There's a bit of interference between the x86 implementation, which
relies on internal details of the old scalar implementation. In the next
commit, the x86 implementation will be replaced with a faster one that
doesn't rely on this, so none of this matters much. But for now, to keep
this passing the tests, we inline the bits of the old implementation
that the x86 implementation relied on. Also, since we now support a
slightly larger key space, via the union, some offsets had to be fixed
up.
Nonce calculation was folded in with the emit function, to take
advantage of 64x64 arithmetic. However, Adiantum appeared to rely on no
nonce handling in emit, so this path was conditionalized. We also
introduced a new struct, poly1305_core_key, to represent the precise
amount of space that particular implementation uses.
Testing with kbench9000, depending on the CPU, the update function for
the 32x32 version has been improved by 4%-7%, and for the 64x64 by
19%-30%. The 32x32 gains are small, but I think there's great value in
having a parallel implementation to the 64x64 one so that the two can be
compared side-by-side as nice stand-alone units.

To support time namespaces in the vdso with a minimal impact on regular non
time namespace affected tasks, the namespace handling needs to be hidden in
a slow path.
The most obvious place is vdso_seq_begin(). If a task belongs to a time
namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide vdso data is
replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the
VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path
and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time
namespace handling path.
The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent
update of the vdso data is in progress, is not really affecting regular
tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting
for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again.
If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding
time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time
and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the
special VVAR page.
If VDSO time namespace support is disabled the whole magic is compiled out.
Initial testing shows that the disabled case is almost identical to the
host case which does not take the slow timens path. With the special timens
page installed the performance hit is constant time and in the range of
5-7%.
For the vdso functions which are not using the sequence count an
unconditional check for vdso_data->clock_mode is added which switches to
the real vdso when the clock_mode is VCLOCK_TIMENS.
[avagin: Make do_hres_timens() work with raw clocks too: choose vdso_data
pointer by CS_RAW offset.]
