2017-12-23T21:47:22Z

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: "These fixes are all tagged for -stable and have received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. - NVDIMM namespaces, configured to enforce 1GB alignment, fail to initialize on platforms that mis-align the start or end of the physical address range. - The Linux implementation of the BTT (Block Translation Table) is incompatible with the UEFI 2.7 definition of the BTT format. The BTT layers a software atomic sector semantic on top of an NVDIMM namespace. Linux needs to be compatible with the UEFI definition to enable boot support or any pre-OS access of data on a BTT enabled namespace. - A fix for ACPI SMART notification events, this allows a userspace monitor to register for health events rather than poll. This has been broken since it was initially merged as the unit test inadvertently worked around the problem. The urgency for fixing this during the -rc series is driven by how expensive it is to poll for this data (System Management Mode entry)" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: libnvdimm, btt: Fix an incompatibility in the log layout libnvdimm, btt: add a couple of missing kernel-doc lines libnvdimm, dax: fix 1GB-aligned namespaces vs physical misalignment libnvdimm, pfn: fix start_pad handling for aligned namespaces acpi, nfit: fix health event notification

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner: "Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date, but a late fixup made that moot. - Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to diagnose failures. The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of 32bit wraparounds. - Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already, but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with the fixmap code - A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of the TLB functions should be used for what. - Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces confusing. - Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(), which is only invoked on fork(). - Make vysycall more robust. - A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out of sync with the index enums. - Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI. - Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI integration simpler and header files less convoluted. - Documentation fixes and clarifications" * 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (24 commits) x86/cpu_entry_area: Prevent wraparound in setup_cpu_entry_area_ptes() on 32bit init: Invoke init_espfix_bsp() from mm_init() x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmap x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it to a separate unit x86/mm: Create asm/invpcid.h x86/mm: Put MMU to hardware ASID translation in one place x86/mm: Remove hard-coded ASID limit checks x86/mm: Move the CR3 construction functions to tlbflush.h x86/mm: Add comments to clarify which TLB-flush functions are supposed to flush what x86/mm: Remove superfluous barriers x86/mm: Use __flush_tlb_one() for kernel memory x86/microcode: Dont abuse the TLB-flush interface x86/uv: Use the right TLB-flush API x86/entry: Rename SYSENTER_stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA_entry_stack x86/doc: Remove obvious weirdnesses from the x86 MM layout documentation x86/mm/64: Improve the memory map documentation x86/ldt: Prevent LDT inheritance on exec x86/ldt: Rework locking arch, mm: Allow arch_dup_mmap() to fail x86/vsyscall/64: Warn and fail vsyscall emulation in NATIVE mode ...

x86/cpu_entry_area: Prevent wraparound in setup_cpu_entry_area_ptes() on 32bit

2017-12-23T19:18:42Z

The loop which populates the CPU entry area PMDs can wrap around on 32bit machines when the number of CPUs is small. It worked wonderful for NR_CPUS=64 for whatever reason and the moron who wrote that code did not bother to test it with !SMP. Check for the wraparound to fix it.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: "This is all fairly boring, except that there's two KVM fixes that you'd normally get via Paul's kvm-ppc tree. He's away so I picked them up. I was waiting to see if he would apply them, which is why they have only been in my tree since today. But they were on the list for a while and have been tested on the relevant hardware. Of note is two fixes for KVM XIVE (Power9 interrupt controller). These would normally go via the KVM tree but Paul is away so I've picked them up. Other than that, two fixes for error handling in the IMC driver, and one for a potential oops in the BHRB code if the hardware records a branch address that has subsequently been unmapped, and finally a s/%p/%px/ in our oops code.

Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong: "Here are some XFS fixes for 4.15-rc5. Apologies for the unusually large number of patches this late, but I wanted to make sure the corruption fixes were really ready to go. Changes since last update: - Fix a locking problem during xattr block conversion that could lead to the log checkpointing thread to try to write an incomplete buffer to disk, which leads to a corruption shutdown - Fix a null pointer dereference when removing delayed allocation extents - Remove post-eof speculative allocations when reflinking a block past current inode size so that we don't just leave them there and assert on inode reclaim - Relax an assert which didn't accurately reflect the way locking works and would trigger under heavy io load - Avoid infinite loop when cancelling copy on write extents after a writeback failure - Try to avoid copy on write transaction reservation overflows when remapping after a successful write - Fix various problems with the copy-on-write reservation automatic garbage collection not being cleaned up properly during a ro remount - Fix problems with rmap log items being processed in the wrong order, leading to corruption shutdowns - Fix problems with EFI recovery wherein the "remove any rmapping if present" mechanism wasn't actually doing anything, which would lead to corruption problems later when the extent is reallocated, leading to multiple rmaps for the same extent" * tag 'xfs-4.15-fixes-8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: xfs: only skip rmap owner checks for unknown-owner rmap removal xfs: always honor OWN_UNKNOWN rmap removal requests xfs: queue deferred rmap ops for cow staging extent alloc/free in the right order xfs: set cowblocks tag for direct cow writes too xfs: remove leftover CoW reservations when remounting ro xfs: don't be so eager to clear the cowblocks tag on truncate xfs: track cowblocks separately in i_flags xfs: allow CoW remap transactions to use reserve blocks xfs: avoid infinite loop when cancelling CoW blocks after writeback failure xfs: relax is_reflink_inode assert in xfs_reflink_find_cow_mapping xfs: remove dest file's post-eof preallocations before reflinking xfs: move xfs_iext_insert tracepoint to report useful information xfs: account for null transactions in bunmapi xfs: hold xfs_buf locked between shortform->leaf conversion and the addition of an attribute xfs: add the ability to join a held buffer to a defer_ops
