commit 1a512c0882bd311c5b5561840fcfbe4c25b8f319 upstream.

A bugfix broke the x32 shmid64_ds and msqid64_ds data structure layout
(as seen from user space)  a few years ago: Originally, __BITS_PER_LONG
was defined as 64 on x32, so we did not have padding after the 64-bit
__kernel_time_t fields, After __BITS_PER_LONG got changed to 32,
applications would observe extra padding.

In other parts of the uapi headers we seem to have a mix of those
expecting either 32 or 64 on x32 applications, so we can't easily revert
the path that broke these two structures.

Instead, this patch decouples x32 from the other architectures and moves
it back into arch specific headers, partially reverting the even older
commit 73a2d096fdf2 ("x86: remove all now-duplicate header files").

It's not clear whether this ever made any difference, since at least
glibc carries its own (correct) copy of both of these header files,
so possibly no application has ever observed the definitions here.

Based on a suggestion from H.J. Lu, I tried out the tool from
https://github.com/hjl-tools/linux-header to find other such
bugs, which pointed out the same bug in statfs(), which also has
a separate (correct) copy in glibc.

Pull second batch of kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Four changes:

   - x86: work around two nasty cases where a benign exception occurs
     while another is being delivered.  The endless stream of exceptions
     causes an infinite loop in the processor, which not even NMIs or
     SMIs can interrupt; in the virt case, there is no possibility to
     exit to the host either.

   - x86: support for Skylake per-guest TSC rate.  Long supported by
     AMD, the patches mostly move things from there to common
     arch/x86/kvm/ code.

   - generic: remove local_irq_save/restore from the guest entry and
     exit paths when context tracking is enabled.  The patches are a few
     months old, but we discussed them again at kernel summit.  Andy
     will pick up from here and, in 4.5, try to remove it from the user
     entry/exit paths.

   - PPC: Two bug fixes, see merge commit 370289756becc for details"

It was found that a guest can DoS a host by triggering an infinite
stream of "alignment check" (#AC) exceptions.  This causes the
microcode to enter an infinite loop where the core never receives
another interrupt.  The host kernel panics pretty quickly due to the
effects (CVE-2015-5307).

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "First batch of KVM changes for 4.4.

  s390:
     A bunch of fixes and optimizations for interrupt and time handling.

  PPC:
     Mostly bug fixes.

  ARM:
     No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including:

      - a number of fixes for the arch-timer

      - introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers

      - a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite
        for IRQ forwarding)

      - some tracepoint improvements

      - a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers

      - some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state

  x86:
     Quite a few changes:

      - support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject
        interrupts directly into vCPUs).  This introduces a new
        component (in virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together.
        The same infrastructure will be used for ARM interrupt
        forwarding as well.

      - more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic
        interrupt controller will have to wait for 4.5.  These will let
        KVM expose Hyper-V devices.

      - nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for
        vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster

      - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for
        clflushopt, clwb, pcommit

      - support for "split irqchip", i.e.  LAPIC in kernel +
        IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of
        the hypervisor

      - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes

      - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten
        to not require help from the hypervisor"

Pull x86 sigcontext header cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
 "This series reorganizes and cleans up various aspects of the main
  sigcontext UAPI headers, such as unifying the data structures and
  updating/adding lots of comments to explain all the ABI details and
  quirks.  The headers can now also be built in user-space standalone"

asm/ioctls.h contains definition for termios, not just the _IO* macros.

This error was found with a tool in development used to generate
automated pretty-printing functions for ioctl decoding in strace.

<title>x86/headers/uapi: Fix __BITS_PER_LONG value for x32 builds</title>

On x32, gcc predefines __x86_64__ but long is only 32-bit.  Use
__ILP32__ to distinguish x32.

Fixes this compiler error in perf:

	tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/__ffs.h: In function '__ffs':
	tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/__ffs.h:19:8: error: right shift count &gt;= width of type [-Werror=shift-count-overflow]
	  word &gt;&gt;= 32;
	       ^

This isn't sufficient to build perf for x32, though.

<title>KVM: x86: add pcommit support</title>

Pass PCOMMIT CPU feature to guest to enable PCOMMIT instruction

Currently we do not catch pcommit instruction for L1 guest and
allow L1 to catch this instruction for L2 if, as required by the spec,
L1 can enumerate the PCOMMIT instruction via CPUID:
| IA32_VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS2[53] (which enumerates support for the
| 1-setting of PCOMMIT exiting) is always the same as
| CPUID.07H:EBX.PCOMMIT[bit 22]. Thus, software can set PCOMMIT exiting
| to 1 if and only if the PCOMMIT instruction is enumerated via CPUID

The spec can be found at
https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/0d/53/319433-022.pdf
