commit fff5d99225107f5f13fe4a9805adc2a1c4b5fb00 upstream.

On architectures like arm64, swiotlb is tied intimately to the core
architecture DMA support. In addition, ZONE_DMA cannot be disabled.

To aid debugging and catch devices not supporting DMA to memory outside
the 32-bit address space, add a kernel command line option
"swiotlb=noforce", which disables the use of bounce buffers.
If specified, trying to map memory that cannot be used with DMA will
fail, and a rate-limited warning will be printed.

Note that io_tlb_nslabs is set to 1, which is the minimal supported
value.

commit 546125d1614264d26080817d0c8cddb9b25081fa upstream.

The inet6addr_chain is an atomic notifier chain, so we can't call
anything that might sleep (like lock_sock)... instead of closing the
socket from svc_age_temp_xprts_now (which is called by the notifier
function), just have the rpc service threads do it instead.

<title>rcu: Narrow early boot window of illegal synchronous grace periods</title>

commit 52d7e48b86fc108e45a656d8e53e4237993c481d upstream.

The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases
during bootup.  In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running
with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period.
In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has
not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods,
workqueues are not yet running.  During this time, any attempt to do
a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly,
depending).  In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and
everything works normally.

This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some
synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase.
This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon
as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit
8b355e3bc140 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue").
Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject
to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods
to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs
parameter).  The callchain from the failure case is as follows:

early_amd_iommu_init()
|-&gt; acpi_put_table(ivrs_base);
|-&gt; acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc);
|-&gt; acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc);
|-&gt; acpi_tb_release_table(...)
|-&gt; acpi_os_unmap_memory
|-&gt; acpi_os_unmap_iomem
|-&gt; acpi_os_map_cleanup
|-&gt; synchronize_rcu_expedited

The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y,
which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were
initialized, which did not go well.

This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods
to proceed during this mid-boot phase.  This commit is therefore a
fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put
forward post-merge-window in v4.10.

This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting()
function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited
path.  The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task
to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase.
Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named
rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used.

Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals
(or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned
through core_initcall() time.

commit 9a05e7541c39680d28ecf91892338e074738d5fd upstream.

With compilers which follow the C99 standard (like modern versions of
gcc and clang), "extern inline" does the opposite thing from older
versions of gcc (emits code for an externally linkable version of the
inline function).

"static inline" does the intended behavior in all cases instead.

Description taken from commit 6d91857d4826 ("staging, rtl8192e,
LLVMLinux: Change extern inline to static inline").

This also fixes the following GCC warning when building with CONFIG_PM
disabled:

  ./include/linux/blkdev.h:1143:20: warning: no previous prototype for 'blk_set_runtime_active' [-Wmissing-prototypes]

<title>x86/efi: Don't allocate memmap through memblock after mm_init()</title>

commit 20b1e22d01a4b0b11d3a1066e9feb04be38607ec upstream.

With the following commit:

  4bc9f92e64c8 ("x86/efi-bgrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() to avoid copying image data")

...  efi_bgrt_init() calls into the memblock allocator through
efi_mem_reserve() =&gt; efi_arch_mem_reserve() *after* mm_init() has been called.

Indeed, KASAN reports a bad read access later on in efi_free_boot_services():

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in efi_free_boot_services+0xae/0x24c

   start_cpu+0x5/0x14

The instruction at the given address is the first read from the memmap's
memory, i.e. the read of md-&gt;type in efi_free_boot_services().

Note that the writes earlier in efi_arch_mem_reserve() don't splat because
they're done through early_memremap()ed addresses.

So, after memblock is gone, allocations should be done through the "normal"
page allocator. Introduce a helper, efi_memmap_alloc() for this. Use
it from efi_arch_mem_reserve(), efi_free_boot_services() and, for the sake
of consistency, from efi_fake_memmap() as well.

Note that for the latter, the memmap allocations cease to be page aligned.
This isn't needed though.

The instruction at the given address is the first read from the memmap's
memory, i.e. the read of md-&gt;type in efi_free_boot_services().

Note that the writes earlier in efi_arch_mem_reserve() don't splat because
they're done through early_memremap()ed addresses.

So, after memblock is gone, allocations should be done through the "normal"
page allocator. Introduce a helper, efi_memmap_alloc() for this. Use
it from efi_arch_mem_reserve(), efi_free_boot_services() and, for the sake
of consistency, from efi_fake_memmap() as well.

Note that for the latter, the memmap allocations cease to be page aligned.
This isn't needed though.

<title>efi/x86: Prune invalid memory map entries and fix boot regression</title>

commit 0100a3e67a9cef64d72cd3a1da86f3ddbee50363 upstream.

Some machines, such as the Lenovo ThinkPad W541 with firmware GNET80WW
(2.28), include memory map entries with phys_addr=0x0 and num_pages=0.

These machines fail to boot after the following commit,

  commit 8e80632fb23f ("efi/esrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() and avoid a kmalloc()")

Fix this by removing such bogus entries from the memory map.

Furthermore, currently the log output for this case (with efi=debug)
looks like:

 [    0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved           |   |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  ] range=[0x0000000000000000-0xffffffffffffffff] (0MB)

This is clearly wrong, and also not as informative as it could be.  This
patch changes it so that if we find obviously invalid memory map
entries, we print an error and skip those entries.  It also detects the
display of the address range calculation overflow, so the new output is:

 [    0.000000] efi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid EFI memory map entries:
 [    0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved           |   |  |  |  |  |  |  |   |  |  |  |  ] range=[0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000000] (invalid)

It also detects memory map sizes that would overflow the physical
address, for example phys_addr=0xfffffffffffff000 and
num_pages=0x0200000000000001, and prints:

 [    0.000000] efi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid EFI memory map entries:
 [    0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved           |   |  |  |  |  |  |  |   |  |  |  |  ] range=[phys_addr=0xfffffffffffff000-0x20ffffffffffffffff] (invalid)

It then removes these entries from the memory map.

commit b6416e61012429e0277bd15a229222fd17afc1c1 upstream.

Modules that use static_key_deferred need a way to synchronize with
any delayed work that is still pending when the module is unloaded.
Introduce static_key_deferred_flush() which flushes any pending
jump label updates.

commit f05714293a591038304ddae7cb0dd747bb3786cc upstream.

During developemnt for zram-swap asynchronous writeback, I found strange
corruption of compressed page, resulting in:

With investigation, it reveals currently stable page doesn't support
anonymous page.  IOW, reuse_swap_page can reuse the page without waiting
writeback completion so it can overwrite page zram is compressing.

Unfortunately, zram has used per-cpu stream feature from v4.7.
It aims for increasing cache hit ratio of scratch buffer for
compressing. Downside of that approach is that zram should ask
memory space for compressed page in per-cpu context which requires
stricted gfp flag which could be failed. If so, it retries to
allocate memory space out of per-cpu context so it could get memory
this time and compress the data again, copies it to the memory space.

In this scenario, zram assumes the data should never be changed
but it is not true unless stable page supports. So, If the data is
changed under us, zram can make buffer overrun because second
compression size could be bigger than one we got in previous trial
and blindly, copy bigger size object to smaller buffer which is
buffer overrun. The overrun breaks zsmalloc free object chaining
so system goes crash like above.

I think below is same problem.
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997574

Unfortunately, reuse_swap_page should be atomic so that we cannot wait on
writeback in there so the approach in this patch is simply return false if
we found it needs stable page.  Although it increases memory footprint
temporarily, it happens rarely and it should be reclaimed easily althoug
it happened.  Also, It would be better than waiting of IO completion,
which is critial path for application latency.
