Linus Torvalds 9977d9b379 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal
Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
     kernel/fork.c now."

Linus Torvalds 090f8ccba3 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of activity:

   211 files changed, 8328 insertions(+), 4116 deletions(-)

  most of it on the tooling side.

  Main changes:

   * ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.

   * uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
     Nesterov.

   * UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
     transition

   * Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Make hardware event translations available in sysfs, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
     maps, from Namhyung Kim

   * Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim

   * Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
     different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
     python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
     that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
     from Jiri Olsa

   * Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
     buckets for all the entries in all the hists.  This new method is
     now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
     'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.

   * libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
     build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
     really pointed to real bugs.

   * Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
     report and annotate browsers.  It does filtering to find the
     scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used.  From
     Feng Tang

   * perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
     Andrew Vagin.

   * Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.

   * Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.

   * Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
     existing threads when we start a tool like trace.

   * Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
     produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
     tglx's original "trace" tool.

   * Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'

   * Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.

   * There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
     build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
     not possible, from Borislav Petkov.

   * Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David
     Ahern.

   * Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session
     environment information in the perf.data file header, from Irina
     Tirdea, original patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.

   * Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can
     figure out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc.  From
     Jiri Olsa.

   * Add on_exit implementation for systems without one, e.g.  Android,
     from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.

   * Only process events for vcpus of interest, helps handling large
     number of events, from David Ahern.

   * Cross compilation fixes for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

Will Deacon f84a935db4 arm64: vdso: check sequence counter even for coarse realtime operations
When returning coarse realtime values from clock_gettime, we must still
check the sequence counter to ensure that the kernel does not update
the vdso datapage whilst we are loading the coarse timespec as this
could potentially result in time appearing to go backwards.

This patch delays the coarse realtime check until after we have loaded
successfully from the vdso datapage. This does mean that we always load
the wtm timespec, but conditionalising the load and adding an extra
sequence test is unlikely to buy us anything other than messy code,
particularly as the sequence test implies a read barrier.

The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory
from the .dts files. This patch changes arm64 to use the generic dtb
rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts.

This requires moving parts of arch/arm64/boot/Makefile into newly created
arch/arm64/boot/dts/Makefile, and updating arch/arm64/Makefile to call the
new Makefile.

Al Viro 9d73fc2d64 open*(2) compat fixes (s390, arm64)
The usual rules for open()/openat()/open_by_handle_at() are
 1) native 32bit - don't force O_LARGEFILE in flags
 2) native 64bit - force O_LARGEFILE in flags
 3) compat on 64bit host - as for native 32bit
 4) native 32bit ABI for 64bit system (mips/n32, x86/x32) - as for
    native 64bit

There are only two exceptions - s390 compat has open() forcing
O_LARGEFILE and arm64 compat has open_by_handle_at() doing the same
thing.  The same binaries on native host (s390/31 and arm resp.) will
*not* force O_LARGEFILE, so IMO both are emulation bugs.

Objections? The fix is obvious...

Catalin Marinas 33eaa58f85 arm64: Make !dirty ptes read-only
The AArch64 Linux port relies on the mm code to wrprotect clean ptes.
This however is not the case with newly created ptes and
PAGE_SHARED(_EXEC) is writable but !dirty.

Will Deacon 304ef4e836 arm64: signal: push the unwinding prologue on the signal stack
To allow debuggers to unwind through signal frames, we create a fake
stack unwinding prologue containing the link register and frame pointer
of the interrupted context. The signal frame is then offset by 16 bytes
to make room for the two saved registers which are pushed onto the frame
of the *interrupted* context, rather than placed directly above the
signal stack.

This doesn't work when an alternative signal stack is set up for a SEGV
handler, which is raised in response to RLIMIT_STACK being reached. In
this case, we try to push the unwinding prologue onto the full stack and
subsequently take a fault which we fail to resolve, causing setup_return
to return -EFAULT and handle_signal to force_sigsegv on the current task.

This patch fixes the problem by including the unwinding prologue as part
of the rt_sigframe definition, which is populated during setup_sigframe,
ensuring that it always ends up on the signal stack.

Will Deacon 938edf5c04 arm64: mm: update max_dma32 before calculating size of NORMAL zone
Commit f483a853b0 ("arm64: mm: fix booting on systems with no memory
below 4GB") sets max_dma32 to the minimum of the maximum pfn and
MAX_DMA32_PFN. This value is later used as the base of the NORMAL zone,
which is incorrect when MAX_DMA32_PFN is below the minimum pfn (i.e. all
memory is above 4GB).

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that max_dma32 is always set to
the end of the DMA32 zone.

David Sharp 8cbd9cc625 tracing,x86: Add a TSC trace_clock
In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.

Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.

v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

Will Deacon f46f979fda arm64: perf: use architected event for CPU cycle counter
We currently use a fake event encoding (0xFF) to indicate CPU cycles so
that we don't waste an event counter and can target the hardware cycle
counter instead.

The problem with this approach is that the event space defined by the
architecture permits an implementation to allocate 0xFF for some other
event.

This patch uses the architected cycle counter encoding (0x11) so that
we avoid potentially clashing with event encodings on future CPU
implementations.
