Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"Another round of CR3/PCID related fixes (I think this addresses all
but one of the known problems with PCID support), an objtool fix plus
a Clang fix that (finally) solves all Clang quirks to build a bootable
x86 kernel as-is"
* 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/asm: Fix inline asm call constraints for Clang
objtool: Handle another GCC stack pointer adjustment bug
x86/mm/32: Load a sane CR3 before cpu_init() on secondary CPUs
x86/mm/32: Move setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_PCID) earlier
x86/mm/64: Stop using CR3.PCID == 0 in ASID-aware code
x86/mm: Factor out CR3-building code

For inline asm statements which have a CALL instruction, we list the
stack pointer as a constraint to convince GCC to ensure the frame
pointer is set up first:
static inline void foo()
{
register void *__sp asm(_ASM_SP);
asm("call bar" : "+r" (__sp))
}
Unfortunately, that pattern causes Clang to corrupt the stack pointer.
The fix is easy: convert the stack pointer register variable to a global
variable.
It should be noted that the end result is different based on the GCC
version. With GCC 6.4, this patch has exactly the same result as
before:
defconfig defconfig-nofp distro distro-nofp
before 9820389 9491555 8816046 8516940
after 9820389 9491555 8816046 8516940
With GCC 7.2, however, GCC's behavior has changed. It now changes its
behavior based on the conversion of the register variable to a global.
That somehow convinces it to *always* set up the frame pointer before
inserting *any* inline asm. (Therefore, listing the variable as an
output constraint is a no-op and is no longer necessary.) It's a bit
overkill, but the performance impact should be negligible. And in fact,
there's a nice improvement with frame pointers disabled:
defconfig defconfig-nofp distro distro-nofp
before 9796316 9468236 9076191 8790305
after 9796957 9464267 9076381 8785949
So in summary, while listing the stack pointer as an output constraint
is no longer necessary for newer versions of GCC, it's still needed for
older versions.

The kbuild bot reported the following warning with GCC 4.4 and a
randconfig:
net/socket.o: warning: objtool: compat_sock_ioctl()+0x1083: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+160 cfa2=-1+0
This is caused by another GCC non-optimization, where it backs up and
restores the stack pointer for no apparent reason:
2f91: 48 89 e0 mov %rsp,%rax
2f94: 4c 89 e7 mov %r12,%rdi
2f97: 4c 89 f6 mov %r14,%rsi
2f9a: ba 20 00 00 00 mov $0x20,%edx
2f9f: 48 89 c4 mov %rax,%rsp
This issue would have been happily ignored before the following commit:
dd88a0a0c861 ("objtool: Handle GCC stack pointer adjustment bug")
But now that objtool is paying attention to such stack pointer writes
to/from a register, it needs to understand them properly. In this case
that means recognizing that the "mov %rsp, %rax" instruction is
potentially a backup of the stack pointer.

Arnd Bergmann reported that a randconfig build was failing with the
following link error:
built-in.o: member arch/x86/kernel/time.o in archive is not an object
It turns out the link failed because the time.o file had been corrupted
by objtool:
nm: arch/x86/kernel/time.o: File format not recognized
In certain rare cases, when a .o file's ORC table is very small, the
.data section size doesn't change because it's page aligned. Because
all the existing sections haven't changed size, libelf doesn't detect
any section header changes, and so it doesn't update the section header
table properly. Instead it writes junk in the section header entries
for the new ORC sections.
Make sure libelf properly updates the section header table by setting
the ELF_F_DIRTY flag in the top level elf struct.

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

Previously the part behind "perf-" was interpreted as an internal perf
command. If the suffix could not be handled, the execution was stopped.
This makes it impossible to launch perf binaries that got renamed to
have the `perf-` prefix. This is e.g. the case for appimages (e.g.
"perf-x86_64.AppImage"), but would also apply to all other scenarios
where users symlink or rename perf themselves:
Status quo with the broken behavior:
$ ln -s ./perf ./perf-custom-suffix
$ ./perf-custom-suffix list
cannot handle custom-suffix internally$
Also note the missing newline at the end of the error message.
With this patch applied, the above works properly:
$ ./perf-custom-suffix list

We currently update the 'next' variable only with a single step value.
But it's possible the 'adv' update is bigger than single 'step' value.
This would leave 'next' value under counted and force unnecessary
ui_progress__ops->update calls.
Calculate the amount of steps we need for 'adv' update and increase the
'next' with that amounts of steps.

Unlikely, but we could have ui_progress__init being called with total <
16, which would set the next and step variables to 0. That would force
unnecessary ui_progress__ops->update calls because 'next' would never
raise.
Forcing the next and step values to be always > 0.

When cross compiling perf and I want to link against a self-compiled
libunwind, I usually make the custom path where the libunwind headers
exist visible by adding the libunwind prefix to the include path when
compiling perf, i.e.:
~~~~~
$ ls $HOME/projects/compiled/other/include/
libunwind-coredump.h libunwind.h libunwind-x86_64.h
libunwind-common.h libunwind-dynamic.h libunwind-ptrace.h
unwind.h
$ make EXTRA_CFLAGS="-I$HOME/projects/compiled/other/include/
~~~~~~
Note the `unwind.h` header from libunwind which leads to compile
errors when compiling tests/dwarf-unwind.c, since it shadows perf's
util/unwind.h:
~~~~~
tests/dwarf-unwind.c:41:32: error: ‘struct unwind_entry’ declared inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration [-Werror]
static int unwind_entry(struct unwind_entry *entry, void *arg)
^~~~~~~~~~~~
tests/dwarf-unwind.c: In function ‘unwind_entry’:
tests/dwarf-unwind.c:44:22: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct unwind_entry’
char *symbol = entry->sym ? entry->sym->name : NULL;
^~
tests/dwarf-unwind.c: In function ‘unwind_thread’:
tests/dwarf-unwind.c:92:8: error: implicit declaration of function ‘unwind__get_entries’; did you mean ‘unwind_entry’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
unwind_entry
tests/dwarf-unwind.c:92:8: error: nested extern declaration of ‘unwind__get_entries’ [-Werror=nested-externs]
~~~~~~
Fix this compile error by specificing an explicit include of perf's
unwind.h in the util folder.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Life has been busy and I have not gotten half as much done this round
as I would have liked. I delayed it so that a minor conflict
resolution with the mips tree could spend a little time in linux-next
before I sent this pull request.
This includes two long delayed user namespace changes from Kirill
Tkhai. It also includes a very useful change from Serge Hallyn that
allows the security capability attribute to be used inside of user
namespaces. The practical effect of this is people can now untar
tarballs and install rpms in user namespaces. It had been suggested to
generalize this and encode some of the namespace information
information in the xattr name. Upon close inspection that makes the
things that should be hard easy and the things that should be easy
more expensive.
Then there is my bugfix/cleanup for signal injection that removes the
magic encoding of the siginfo union member from the kernel internal
si_code. The mips folks reported the case where I had used FPE_FIXME
me is impossible so I have remove FPE_FIXME from mips, while at the
same time including a return statement in that case to keep gcc from
complaining about unitialized variables.
I almost finished the work to get make copy_siginfo_to_user a trivial
copy to user. The code is available at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git neuter-copy_siginfo_to_user-v3
But I did not have time/energy to get the code posted and reviewed
before the merge window opened.
I was able to see that the security excuse for just copying fields
that we know are initialized doesn't work in practice there are buggy
initializations that don't initialize the proper fields in siginfo. So
we still sometimes copy unitialized data to userspace"

The bpf map sockmap supports adding programs via attach commands. This
patch adds the detach command to keep the API symmetric and allow
users to remove previously added programs. Otherwise the user would
have to delete the map and re-add it to get in this state.
This also adds a series of additional tests to capture detach operation
and also attaching/detaching invalid prog types.
API note: socks will run (or not run) programs depending on the state
of the map at the time the sock is added. We do not for example walk
the map and remove programs from previously attached socks.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity.
Just lots of things all over the place.
Some things of note include:
- Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can
count both core events as well as nest unit events (Memory
controller etc).
- Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid
unnecessary Page Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the
tree is not changing.
- Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it
closer to other architectures where possible.
- Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to
send IPIs to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all
CPUs.
- The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU
systems. This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems
with very sparse NUMA layouts.
- STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32.
- A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that
pairs of cores may share an L2 cache.
- Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing
coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX
compression accelerator.
- Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for
many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to
implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults.
- Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt
controller.
And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting,
but I had to keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as
always.
