Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"An assorted pile of fixes along with some hardware enablement:
- a fix for a KASAN / branch profiling related boot failure
- some more fallout of the PUD rework
- a fix for the Always Running Timer which is not initialized when
the TSC frequency is known at boot time (via MSR/CPUID)
- a resource leak fix for the RDT filesystem
- another unwinder corner case fixup
- removal of the warning for duplicate NMI handlers because there are
legitimate cases where more than one handler can be registered at
the last level
- make a function static - found by sparse
- a set of updates for the Intel MID platform which got delayed due
to merge ordering constraints. It's hardware enablement for a non
mainstream platform, so there is no risk"

Pull x86 acpi fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update deals with the fallout of the recent work to make
cpuid/node mappings persistent.
It turned out that the boot time ACPI based mapping tripped over ACPI
inconsistencies and caused regressions. It's partially reverted and
the fragile part replaced by an implementation which makes the mapping
persistent when a CPU goes online for the first time"

If one thread mmaps a perf event while another thread in the same mm
is in some context where active_mm != mm (which can happen in the
scheduler, for example), refresh_pce() would write the wrong value
to CR4.PCE. This broke some PAPI tests.

The rdtgroup_kn_unlock waits for the last user to release and put its
node. But it's calling kernfs_put on the node which calls the
rdtgroup_kn_unlock, which might not be the group's directory node, but
another group's file node.
This race could be easily reproduced by running 2 instances
of following script:
mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
pushd /sys/fs/resctrl/
mkdir krava
echo "krava" > krava/schemata
rmdir krava
popd
umount /sys/fs/resctrl
It triggers the slub debug error message with following command
line config: slub_debug=,kernfs_node_cache.
Call kernfs_put on the group's node to fix it.

Pavel Machek reported the following warning on x86-32:
WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at f50cdf98 in swapper/2:0 has bad value (null)
The warning is caused by the unwinder not realizing that it reached the
end of the stack, due to an unusual prologue which gcc sometimes
generates for aligned stacks. The prologue is based on a gcc feature
called the Dynamic Realign Argument Pointer (DRAP). It's almost always
enabled for aligned stacks when -maccumulate-outgoing-args isn't set.
This issue is similar to the one fixed by the following commit:
8023e0e2a48d ("x86/unwind: Adjust last frame check for aligned function stacks")
... but that fix was specific to x86-64.
Make the fix more generic to cover x86-32 as well, and also ensure that
the return address referred to by the frame pointer is a copy of the
original return address.

The kernel doesn't boot with both PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES=y and KASAN=y
options selected. With branch profiling enabled we end up calling
ftrace_likely_update() before kasan_early_init(). ftrace_likely_update() is
built with KASAN instrumentation, so calling it before kasan has been
initialized leads to crash.
Use DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING define to make sure that we don't call
ftrace_likely_update() from early code before kasan_early_init().

Remove the WARNING message associated with multiple NMI handlers as
there are at least two that are legitimate. These are the KGDB and the
UV handlers and both want to be called if the NMI has not been claimed
by any other NMI handler.
Use of the UNKNOWN NMI call chain dramatically lowers the NMI call rate
when high frequency NMI tools are in use, notably the perf tools. It is
required on systems that cannot sustain a high NMI call rate without
adversely affecting the system operation.

Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him.
The ART to TSC relation is only set up for systems which use the refined
TSC calibration. Systems with known TSC frequency (available via CPUID 15)
are not using the refined calibration and therefor the ART to TSC relation
is never established.
Add the setup to the known frequency init path which skips ART
calibration. The init code needs to be duplicated as for systems which use
refined calibration the ART setup must be delayed until calibration has
been done.
The problem has been there since the ART support was introdduced, but only
detected now because Subhransu tested the first time on hardware which has
TSC frequency enumerated via CPUID 15.
Note for stable: The conditional has changed from TSC_RELIABLE to
TSC_KNOWN_FREQUENCY.

Fengguang reported random corruptions from various locations on x86-32
after commits d2852a224050 ("arch: add ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY config") and
9d876e79df6a ("bpf: fix unlocking of jited image when module ronx not set")
that uses the former. While x86-32 doesn't have a JIT like x86_64, the
bpf_prog_lock_ro() and bpf_prog_unlock_ro() got enabled due to
ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY, whereas Fengguang's test kernel doesn't have module
support built in and therefore never had the DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX setting
enabled.
After investigating the crashes further, it turned out that using
set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw() didn't have the desired effect, for
example, setting the pages as read-only on x86-32 would still let
probe_kernel_write() succeed without error. This behavior would manifest
itself in situations where the vmalloc'ed buffer was accessed prior to
set_memory_*() such as in case of bpf_prog_alloc(). In cases where it
wasn't, the page attribute changes seemed to have taken effect, leading to
the conclusion that a TLB invalidate didn't happen. Moreover, it turned out
that this issue reproduced with qemu in "-cpu kvm64" mode, but not for
"-cpu host". When the issue occurs, change_page_attr_set_clr() did trigger
a TLB flush as expected via __flush_tlb_all() through cpa_flush_range(),
though.
There are 3 variants for issuing a TLB flush: invpcid_flush_all() (depends
on CPU feature bits X86_FEATURE_INVPCID, X86_FEATURE_PGE), cr4 based flush
(depends on X86_FEATURE_PGE), and cr3 based flush. For "-cpu host" case in
my setup, the flush used invpcid_flush_all() variant, whereas for "-cpu
kvm64", the flush was cr4 based. Switching the kvm64 case to cr3 manually
worked fine, and further investigating the cr4 one turned out that
X86_CR4_PGE bit was not set in cr4 register, meaning the
__native_flush_tlb_global_irq_disabled() wrote cr4 twice with the same
value instead of clearing X86_CR4_PGE in the first write to trigger the
flush.
It turned out that X86_CR4_PGE was cleared from cr4 during init from
lguest_arch_host_init() via adjust_pge(). The X86_FEATURE_PGE bit is also
cleared from there due to concerns of using PGE in guest kernel that can
lead to hard to trace bugs (see bff672e630a0 ("lguest: documentation V:
Host") in init()). The CPU feature bits are cleared in dynamic
boot_cpu_data, but they never propagated to __flush_tlb_all() as it uses
static_cpu_has() instead of boot_cpu_has() for testing which variant of TLB
flushing to use, meaning they still used the old setting of the host
kernel.
Clearing via setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_PGE) so this would propagate
to static_cpu_has() checks is too late at this point as sections have been
patched already, so for now, it seems reasonable to switch back to
boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PGE) as it was prior to commit c109bf95992b
("x86/cpufeature: Remove cpu_has_pge"). This lets the TLB flush trigger via
cr3 as originally intended, properly makes the new page attributes visible
and thus fixes the crashes seen by Fengguang.

The following commits:
f7c28833c2 ("x86/acpi: Enable acpi to register all possible cpus at
boot time") and 8f54969dc8 ("x86/acpi: Introduce persistent storage
for cpuid <-> apicid mapping")
... registered all the possible CPUs at boot time via ACPI tables to
make the mapping of cpuid <-> apicid fixed. Both enabled and disabled
CPUs could have a logical CPU ID after boot time.
But, ACPI tables are unreliable. the number amd order of Local APIC
entries which depends on the firmware is often inconsistent with the
physical devices. Even if they are consistent, The disabled CPUs which
take up some logical CPU IDs will also make the order discontinuous.
Revert the part of disabled CPUs registration, keep the allocation
logic of logical CPU IDs and also keep some code location changes.

Revert: dc6db24d2476 ("x86/acpi: Set persistent cpuid <-> nodeid mapping when booting")
The mapping of "cpuid <-> nodeid" is established at boot time via ACPI
tables to keep associations of workqueues and other node related items
consistent across cpu hotplug.
But, ACPI tables are unreliable and failures with that boot time mapping
have been reported on machines where the ACPI table and the physical
information which is retrieved at actual hotplug is inconsistent.
Revert the mapping implementation so it can be replaced with a less error
prone approach.

The purgatory code defines global variables which are referenced via a
symbol lookup in the kexec code (core and arch).
A recent commit addressing sparse warnings made these static and thereby
broke kexec_file.
Why did this happen? Simply because the whole machinery is undocumented and
lacks any form of forward declarations. The variable names are unspecific
and lack a prefix, so adding forward declarations creates shadow variables
in the core code. Aside of that the code relies on magic constants and
duplicate struct definitions with no way to ensure that these things stay
in sync. The section placement of the purgatory variables happened by
chance and not by design.
Unbreak kexec and cleanup the mess:
- Add proper forward declarations and document the usage
- Use common struct definition
- Use the proper common defines instead of magic constants
- Add a purgatory_ prefix to have a proper name space
- Use ARRAY_SIZE() instead of a homebrewn reimplementation
- Add proper sections to the purgatory variables [ From Mike ]

Merge 5-level page table prep from Kirill Shutemov:
"Here's relatively low-risk part of 5-level paging patchset. Merging it
now will make x86 5-level paging enabling in v4.12 easier.
The first patch is actually x86-specific: detect 5-level paging
support. It boils down to single define.
The rest of patchset converts Linux MMU abstraction from 4- to 5-level
paging.
Enabling of new abstraction in most cases requires adding single line
of code in arch-specific code. The rest is taken care by asm-generic/.
Changes to mm/ code are mostly mechanical: add support for new page
table level -- p4d_t -- where we deal with pud_t now.
v2:
- fix build on microblaze (Michal);
- comment for __ARCH_HAS_5LEVEL_HACK in kasan_populate_zero_shadow();
- acks from Michal"

The reboot quirk for ASUS EeeBook X205TA contains a typo in
DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, improperly referring to X205TAW instead of
X205TA, which prevents the quirk from being triggered. The
model X205TAW already has a reboot quirk of its own.
This fix simply removes the inappropriate final letter W.

All exit paths from gup_pte_range() require pte_unmap() of the original
pte page before returning. Refactor the code to have a single exit
point to do the unmap.
This mirrors the flow of the generic gup_pte_range() in mm/gup.c.

gup_pte_range() fails to check pte_allows_gup() before translating a DAX
pte entry, pte_devmap(), to a page. This allows writes to read-only
mappings, and bypasses the DAX cacheline dirty tracking due to missed
'mkwrite' faults. The gup_huge_pmd() path and the gup_huge_pud() path
correctly check pte_allows_gup() before checking for _devmap() entries.

If an architecture uses 4level-fixup.h we don't need to do anything as
it includes 5level-fixup.h.
If an architecture uses pgtable-nop*d.h, define __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK
before inclusion of the header. It makes asm-generic code to use
5level-fixup.h.
If an architecture has 4-level paging or folds levels on its own,
include 5level-fixup.h directly.

Before trying to do nested_get_page() in nested_vmx_merge_msr_bitmap(),
we have already checked that the MSR bitmap address is valid (4k aligned
and within physical limits). SDM doesn't specify what happens if the
there is no memory mapped at the valid address, but Intel CPUs treat the
situation as if the bitmap was configured to trap all MSRs.
KVM already does that by returning false and a correct handling doesn't
need the guest-trigerrable warning that was reported by syzkaller:
(The warning was originally there to catch some possible bugs in nVMX.)

It also allows for some explicit synchronization information to be

is the cached value ok, or do you need open/close consistency, or what?

"The point of these changes is to significantly reduce the

After these changes the new <linux/sched.h>'s typical preprocessed

lines), which is around 40% faster to build on typical configs.
Not much changed from the last version (-v2) posted three weeks ago: I
eliminated quirks, backmerged fixes plus I rebased it to an upstream
SHA1 from yesterday that includes most changes queued up in -next plus
all sched.h changes that were pending from Andrew.
I've re-tested the series both on x86 and on cross-arch defconfigs,
and did a bisectability test at a number of random points.
I tried to test as many build configurations as possible, but some
build breakage is probably still left - but it should be mostly

Add a system call to make extended file information available, including
file creation and some attribute flags where available through the
underlying filesystem.
The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a
u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the
synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*()
function.
Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions
vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage.
========
OVERVIEW
========
The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall
with an extended stat structure.
A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The
following have been included:
(1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.
(2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
future expansion.
(3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an
