 "A set of fixes and updates for x86:

   - Address a swiotlb regression which was caused by the recent DMA
     rework and made driver fail because dma_direct_supported() returned
     false

   - Fix a signedness bug in the APIC ID validation which caused invalid
     APIC IDs to be detected as valid thereby bloating the CPU possible
     space.

   - Fix inconsisten config dependcy/select magic for the MFD_CS5535
     driver.

   - Fix a corruption of the physical address space bits when encryption
     has reduced the address space and late cpuinfo updates overwrite
     the reduced bit information with the original value.

   - Dominiks syscall rework which consolidates the architecture
     specific syscall functions so all syscalls can be wrapped with the
     same macros. This allows to switch x86/64 to struct pt_regs based
     syscalls. Extend the clearing of user space controlled registers in
     the entry patch to the lower registers"

Tidy the naming convention for compat syscall subs. Hints which describe
the purpose of the stub go in front and receive a double underscore to
denote that they are generated on-the-fly by the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
macro.

For the generic case, this means:

t            kernel_waitid	# common C function (see kernel/exit.c)

    __do_compat_sys_waitid	# inlined helper doing the actual work
				# (takes original parameters as declared)

T   __se_compat_sys_waitid	# sign-extending C function calling inlined
				# helper (takes parameters of type long,
				# casts them to unsigned long and then to
				# the declared type)

T        compat_sys_waitid      # alias to __se_compat_sys_waitid()
				# (taking parameters as declared), to
				# be included in syscall table

For x86, the naming is as follows:

t            kernel_waitid	# common C function (see kernel/exit.c)

    __do_compat_sys_waitid	# inlined helper doing the actual work
				# (takes original parameters as declared)

t   __se_compat_sys_waitid      # sign-extending C function calling inlined
				# helper (takes parameters of type long,
				# casts them to unsigned long and then to
				# the declared type)

T __ia32_compat_sys_waitid	# IA32_EMULATION 32-bit-ptregs -&gt; C stub,
				# calls __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be
				# included in syscall table

T  __x32_compat_sys_waitid	# x32 64-bit-ptregs -&gt; C stub, calls
				# __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be included
				# in syscall table

If only one of IA32_EMULATION and x32 is enabled, __se_compat_sys_waitid()
may be inlined into the stub __{ia32,x32}_compat_sys_waitid().

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
 "The work on cleaning up and getting the bugs out of siginfo generation
  was largely stalled this round. The progress that was made was the
  definition of FPE_FLTUNK. Which is usable to fix many of the cases
  where siginfo generation is erroneously generating SI_USER by setting
  si_code to 0, that has recently been tagged as FPE_FIXME.

  You already have the change by way of the arm64 tree as that
  definition was pulled into the arm64 tree to allow fixing the problem
  there.

  What remains is the second round of fixing for what I thought was a
  trivial change to the struct siginfo when put the union in _sigfault
  where it belongs. Do to historical reasons 32bit m68k only ensures
  that pointers are 2 byte aligned. So I have added a m68k test case
  made of BUILD_BUG_ONs to verify I have this fix correct and possibly
  catch problems, and I have computed the number of bytes of padding
  needed for the _addr_bnd and _addr_pkey cases and just use an array of
  characters that size.

  For pure paranoia I have written the code so if there is an
  architecture out there that does not perform any alignment of
  structures it should still work.

  With the removal of all of the stale arechitectures this cycle future
  work on cleaning up struct siginfo should be much easier. Almost all
  of the conflicting si_code definitions have been removed with the
  removal of (blackfin, tile, and frv). Plus some of the most difficult
  to test cases have simply been removed from the tree.

  Which means that with a little luck copy_siginfo_to_user can become a
  light weight wrapper around copy_to_user in the next cycle"

It may be useful for an architecture to override the definitions of the
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE0() and __COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros in
&lt;linux/compat.h&gt;, in particular to use a different calling convention
for syscalls. This patch provides a mechanism to do so, based on the
previously introduced CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER. If it is enabled,
&lt;asm/sycall_wrapper.h&gt; is included in &lt;linux/compat.h&gt; and may be used
to define the macros mentioned above. Moreover, as the syscall calling
convention may be different if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is set,
the compat syscall function prototypes in &lt;linux/compat.h&gt; are #ifndef'd
out in that case.

As some of the syscalls and/or compat syscalls may not be present,
the COND_SYSCALL() and COND_SYSCALL_COMPAT() macros in kernel/sys_ni.c
as well as the SYS_NI() and COMPAT_SYS_NI() macros in
kernel/time/posix-stubs.c can be re-defined in &lt;asm/syscall_wrapper.h&gt; iff
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is enabled.

<title>signal: Correct the offset of si_pkey and si_lower in struct siginfo on m68k</title>

The change moving addr_lsb into the _sigfault union failed to take
into account that _sigfault._addr_bnd._lower being a pointer forced
the entire union to have pointer alignment.  The fix for
_sigfault._addr_bnd._lower having pointer alignment failed to take
into account that m68k has a pointer alignment less than the size
of a pointer.  So simply making the padding members pointers changed
the location of later members in the structure.

Fix this by directly computing the needed size of the padding members,
and making the padding members char arrays of the needed size.  AKA
if __alignof__(void *) is 1 sizeof(short) otherwise __alignof__(void *).
Which should be exactly the same rules the compiler whould have
used when computing the padding.

I have tested this change by adding BUILD_BUG_ONs to m68k to verify
the offset of every member of struct siginfo, and with those testing
that the offsets of the fields in struct siginfo is the same before
I changed the generic _sigfault member and after the correction
to the _sigfault member.

I have also verified that the x86 with it's own BUILD_BUG_ONs to verify
the offsets of the siginfo members also compiles cleanly.

Error injection is a useful mechanism to fail arbitrary kernel
functions. However, it is often hard to guarantee an error propagates
appropriately to user space programs. By injecting into syscalls, we can
return arbitrary values to user space directly; this increases
flexibility and robustness in testing, allowing us to test user space
error paths effectively.

The following script, for example, fails calls to sys_open() from a
given pid:

from bcc import BPF
from sys import argv

pid = argv[1]

prog = r"""

int kprobe__SyS_open(struct pt_regs *ctx, const char *pathname, int flags)
{
    u32 pid = bpf_get_current_pid_tgid();
    if (pid == %s)
        bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
    return 0;
}
""" % pid

b = BPF(text=prog)
while 1:
    b.perf_buffer_poll()

This patch whitelists all syscalls defined with SYSCALL_DEFINE and
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE for error injection. These changes are not
intended to be considered stable, and would normally be configured off.

<title>syscalls/x86: auto-create compat_sys_*() prototypes</title>

compat_sys_*() functions are no longer called from within the kernel on
x86 except from the system call table. Linking the system call does not
require compat_sys_*() function prototypes at least on x86. Therefore,
generate compat_sys_*() prototypes on-the-fly within the
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro, and remove x86-specific prototypes from
various header files.

<title>syscalls: sort syscall prototypes in include/linux/compat.h</title>

Shuffle the syscall prototypes in include/linux/compat.h around so
that they are kept in the same order as in
include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h. The individual entries are kept
the same, and neither modified to bring them in line with kernel coding
style nor wrapped in proper ifdefs -- as an exception to this, add the
prefix "asmlinkage" where it was missing.

While sys32_quotactl() is only needed on x86, it can use the recommended
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() machinery for its setup.
