Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.

The various definitions of __pfn_to_phys() have been consolidated to
use a generic macro in include/asm-generic/memory_model.h. This hit
mainline in the form of 012dcef3f058 "mm: move __phys_to_pfn and
__pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h". When the generic macro
was implemented the type cast to phys_addr_t was dropped which caused
boot regressions on ARM platforms with more than 4GB of memory and
LPAE enabled.
It was suggested to use PFN_PHYS() defined in include/linux/pfn.h
as provides the correct logic and avoids further duplication.

Dave ran into horrible performance on a VM without PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS
set and Linus noted that the test-and-set implementation was retarded.
One should spin on the variable with a load, not a RMW.
While there, remove 'queued' from the name, as the lock isn't queued
at all, but a simple test-and-set.

Almost everyone implements dma_set_mask the same way, although some time
that's hidden in ->set_dma_mask methods.
This patch consolidates those into a common implementation that either
calls ->set_dma_mask if present or otherwise uses the default
implementation. Some architectures used to only call ->set_dma_mask
after the initial checks, and those instance have been fixed to do the
full work. h8300 implemented dma_set_mask bogusly as a no-ops and has
been fixed.
Unfortunately some architectures overload unrelated semantics like changing
the dma_ops into it so we still need to allow for an architecture override
for now.

Most architectures just call into ->dma_supported, but some also return 1
if the method is not present, or 0 if no dma ops are present (although
that should never happeb). Consolidate this more broad version into
common code.
Also fix h8300 which inorrectly always returned 0, which would have been
a problem if it's dma_set_mask implementation wasn't a similarly buggy
noop.
As a few architectures have much more elaborate implementations, we
still allow for arch overrides.

Currently there are three valid implementations of dma_mapping_error:
(1) call ->mapping_error
(2) check for a hardcoded error code
(3) always return 0
This patch provides a common implementation that calls ->mapping_error
if present, then checks for DMA_ERROR_CODE if defined or otherwise
returns 0.

Most architectures do not support non-coherent allocations and either
define dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent to their coherent versions or stub
them out.
Openrisc uses dma_{alloc,free}_attrs to implement them, and only Mips
implements them directly.
This patch moves the Openrisc version to common code, and handles the
DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT case in the mips dma_map_ops instance.
Note that actual non-coherent allocations require a dma_cache_sync
implementation, so if non-coherent allocations didn't work on
an architecture before this patch they still won't work after it.

Since 2009 we have a nice asm-generic header implementing lots of DMA API
functions for architectures using struct dma_map_ops, but unfortunately
it's still missing a lot of APIs that all architectures still have to
duplicate.
This series consolidates the remaining functions, although we still need
arch opt outs for two of them as a few architectures have very
non-standard implementations.
This patch (of 5):
The coherent DMA allocator works the same over all architectures supporting
dma_map operations.
This patch consolidates them and converges the minor differences:
- the debug_dma helpers are now called from all architectures, including
those that were previously missing them
- dma_alloc_from_coherent and dma_release_from_coherent are now always
called from the generic alloc/free routines instead of the ops
dma-mapping-common.h always includes dma-coherent.h to get the defintions
for them, or the stubs if the architecture doesn't support this feature
- checks for ->alloc / ->free presence are removed. There is only one
magic instead of dma_map_ops without them (mic_dma_ops) and that one
is x86 only anyway.
Besides that only x86 needs special treatment to replace a default devices
if none is passed and tweak the gfp_flags. An optional arch hook is provided
for that.

When booting an arm64 kernel w/initrd using UEFI/grub, use of mem= will
likely cut off part or all of the initrd. This leaves it outside the
kernel linear map which leads to failure when unpacking. The x86 code
has a similar need to relocate an initrd outside of mapped memory in
some cases.
The current x86 code uses early_memremap() to copy the original initrd
from unmapped to mapped RAM. This patchset creates a generic
copy_from_early_mem() utility based on that x86 code and has arm64 and
x86 share it in their respective initrd relocation code.
This patch (of 3):
In some early boot circumstances, it may be necessary to copy from RAM
outside the kernel linear mapping to mapped RAM. The need to relocate
an initrd is one example in the x86 code. This patch creates a helper
function based on current x86 code.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map.
This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page()
operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in
'struct block_device_operations').
For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes
from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device
memory will arrive in a later kernel.
- Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for
issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes"

If century field is supported by the RTC CMOS device, then we should use
it and then do not consider years greater that 169 as an error.
For information, the year field of the rtc_time structure contains the
value to add to 1970 to obtain the current year.
This was a hack to be able to support years for 1970 to 2069.
This patch remains compatible with this implementation.

The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across
architectures and with incomplete support. Now every architecture
supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Generic support for 'relaxed atomics':
- _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return()
- atomic_read_acquire()
- atomic_set_release()
This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon)
- Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs,
by introducing a new one:
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);
which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.
Then allow:
static_branch_likely()
static_branch_unlikely()
to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case. To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it
in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Static key self-tests (by Jason Baron)
- qrwlock optimizations (by Waiman Long)
- small futex enhancements (by Davidlohr Bueso)

PCI BARs tell us whether prefetching is safe, but they don't say
anything about write combining (WC). WC changes ordering rules
and allows writes to be collapsed, so it's not safe in general
to use it on a prefetchable region.
Add pci_iomap_wc() and pci_iomap_wc_range() so drivers can take
advantage of write combining when they know it's safe.
On architectures that don't fully support WC, e.g., x86 without
PAT, drivers for legacy framebuffers may get some of the benefit
by using arch_phys_wc_add() in addition to pci_iomap_wc(). But
arch_phys_wc_add() is unreliable and should be avoided in
general. On x86, it uses MTRRs, which are limited in number and
size, so the results will vary based on driver loading order.
The goals of adding pci_iomap_wc() are to:
- Give drivers an architecture-independent way to use WC so they can stop
using interfaces like mtrr_add() (on x86, pci_iomap_wc() uses
PAT when available).
- Move toward using _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC, not _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC_MINUS,
on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see de33c442ed2a ("x86 PAT: fix
performance drop for glx, use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache()
and pci_mmap_page_range()").

When building a kernel with .text.unlikely text the unlikely text for
each translation unit was put next to the main .text code in the
final vmlinux.
The problem is that the linker doesn't allow more specific submatches
of a section name in a different linker script statement after the
main match.
So we need to move them all into one line. With that change
.text.unlikely is at the end of everything again.
I also moved .text.hot into the same statement though, even though
that's not strictly needed.

The qrwlock implementation is slightly heavy in its use of memory
barriers, mainly through the use of _cmpxchg() and _return() atomics, which
imply full barrier semantics.
This patch modifies the qrwlock code to use the more relaxed atomic

weakly-ordered architectures.

We currently have no safe way of currently defining architecture
agnostic IOMMU ioremap_*() variants. The trend is for folks to
*assume* that ioremap_nocache() should be the default everywhere
and then add this mapping on each architectures -- this is not
correct today for a variety of reasons.
We have two options:
1) Sit and wait for every architecture in Linux to get a
an ioremap_*() variant defined before including it upstream.
2) Gather consensus on a safe architecture agnostic ioremap_*()
default.
Approach 1) introduces development latencies, and since 2) will
take time and work on clarifying semantics the only remaining
sensible thing to do to avoid issues is returning NULL on
ioremap_*() variants.
In order for this to work we must have all architectures declare
their own ioremap_*() variants as defined. This will take some
work, do this for ioremp_uc() to set the example as its only
currently implemented on x86. Document all this.
We only provide implementation support for ioremap_uc() as the
other ioremap_*() variants are well defined all over the kernel
for other architectures already.

doesn't need to define mm hooks.
As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.
The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.
