<content type='text'>
Commit 7bd509e311f4 ("bpf: add prog_digest and expose it via
fdinfo/netlink") was recently discussed, partially due to
admittedly suboptimal name of "prog_digest" in combination
with sha1 hash usage, thus inevitably and rightfully concerns
about its security in terms of collision resistance were
raised with regards to use-cases.

The intended use cases are for debugging resp. introspection
only for providing a stable "tag" over the instruction sequence
that both kernel and user space can calculate independently.
It's not usable at all for making a security relevant decision.
So collisions where two different instruction sequences generate
the same tag can happen, but ideally at a rather low rate. The
"tag" will be dumped in hex and is short enough to introspect
in tracepoints or kallsyms output along with other data such
as stack trace, etc. Thus, this patch performs a rename into
prog_tag and truncates the tag to a short output (64 bits) to
make it obvious it's not collision-free.

Should in future a hash or facility be needed with a security
relevant focus, then we can think about requirements, constraints,
etc that would fit to that situation. For now, rework the exposed
parts for the current use cases as long as nothing has been
released yet. Tested on x86_64 and s390x.

Johannes Berg says:

====================
We have a number of fixes, in part because I was late
in actually sending them out - will try to do better in
the future:
 * handle VHT opmode properly when hostapd is controlling
   full station state
 * two fixes for minimum channel width in mac80211
 * don't leave SMPS set to junk in HT capabilities
 * fix headroom when forwarding mesh packets, recently
   broken by another fix that failed to take into account
   frame encryption
 * fix the TID in null-data packets indicating EOSP (end
   of service period) in U-APSD
 * prevent attempting to use (and then failing which
   results in crashes) TXQs on stations that aren't added
   to the driver yet

Currently, this attribute is only fetched on station addition, but
not on station change. Since this info is only present in the assoc
request, with full station state support in the driver it cannot be
present when the station is added.

Thus, add support for changing the VHT opmode on station update if
done before (or while) the station is marked as associated. After
this, ignore it, since it used to be ignored.

Since userspace is expected to call timerfd syscalls directly with these
flags/ioctls, make sure we export them so they don't have to duplicate
the values themselves.

When FUNCTIONFS_EVENTFD flag is set, __ffs_data_got_descs reads a 32bits,
little-endian value right after the fixed structure header, and passes it
to eventfd_ctx_fdget. Document this.

Also, rephrase a comment to be affirmative about the role of string
descriptor at index 0. Ref: USB 2.0 spec paragraph "9.6.7 String", and
also checked to still be current in USB 3.0 spec paragraph "9.6.9 String".

<content type='text'>
Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
  partitioning mechanism.

  The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
  odd as well.

  We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
  rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
  per package nature of this mechanism.

  In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
  combinations of the hardware can be utilized.

  There are two ways of associating a cache partition:

   - Task

     A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
     partition associated to the group.

   - CPU

     All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
     which the CPU they are running on is associated with.

     That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.

  The main expected user sare:

   - Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
     the cash w/o disturbing others

   - Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.

   - Latency sensitive enterprise workloads

   - In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
     channel attacks"

[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
  rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
  was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
  the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
  had more time.

  But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
  _so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
  user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
  push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will
  break ]

Pull virtio updates from Michael Tsirkin:
 "virtio, vhost: new device, fixes, speedups

  This includes the new virtio crypto device, and fixes all over the
  place. In particular enabling endian-ness checks for sparse builds
  found some bugs which this fixes. And it appears that everyone is in
  agreement that disabling endian-ness sparse checks shouldn't be
  necessary any longer.

  So this enables them for everyone, and drops the __CHECK_ENDIAN__ and
  __bitwise__ APIs.

  IRQ handling in virtio has been refactored somewhat, the larger switch
  to IRQ_SHARED will have to wait as it proved too aggressive"

__bitwise__ used to mean "yes, please enable sparse checks
unconditionally", but now that we dropped __CHECK_ENDIAN__
__bitwise is exactly the same.
There aren't many users, replace it by __bitwise everywhere.

By now, linux is mostly endian-clean. Enabling endian-ness
checks for everyone produces about 200 new sparse warnings for me -
less than 10% over the 2000 sparse warnings already there.

Not a big deal, OTOH enabling this helps people notice
they are introducing new bugs.

So let's just drop __CHECK_ENDIAN__. Follow-up patches
can drop distinction between __bitwise and __bitwise__.
