Pull char/misc driver fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here are some binder, habanalabs, and vboxguest driver fixes for
  5.1-rc3.

  The Binder fixes resolve some reported issues found by testing, first
  by the selinux developers, and then earlier today by syzbot.

  The habanalabs fixes are all minor, resolving a number of tiny things.

  The vboxguest patches are a bit larger. They resolve the fact that
  virtual box decided to change their api in their latest release in a
  way that broke the existing kernel code, despite saying that they were
  never going to do that. So this is a bit of a "new feature", but is
  good to get merged so that 5.1 will work with the latest release. The
  changes are not large and of course virtual box "swears" they will not
  break this again, but no one is holding their breath here.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

<title>KVM: export &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; iif KVM is supported</title>

<content type='text'>
I do not see any consistency about headers_install of &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt;
and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt;.

According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:

 [1] Both &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; are exported

    alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86

 [2] &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; is exported, but &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; is not

    arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
    parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa

 [3] Neither &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; nor &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; is exported

    csky, nds32, riscv

This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.

Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.

We have two ways to make this consistent:

 [A] export both &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; for all
     architectures, irrespective of the KVM support

 [B] Match the header export of &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt;
     to the KVM support

My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].

So, this commit goes with [B].

For most architectures, &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.

After this commit, there will be two groups:

 [1] Both &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; are exported

    arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86

 [2] Neither &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; nor &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; is exported

    alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,
    nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensa

<content type='text'>
VirtualBox 6.0.x has a new feature where the guest kernel driver passes
info about the origin of the request (e.g. userspace or kernelspace) to
the hypervisor.

If we do not pass this information then when running the 6.0.x userspace
guest-additions tools on a 6.0.x host, some requests will get denied
with a VERR_VERSION_MISMATCH error, breaking vboxservice.service and
the mounting of shared folders marked to be auto-mounted.

This commit implements passing the requestor info to the host, fixing this.

Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.

um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
 "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/
  as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
  will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
  the processes they refer to.

  With the ability to use /proc/&lt;pid&gt; fds as stable handles on struct
  pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
  its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
  to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.

  With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
  example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
  process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
  parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
  rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
  in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
  process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
  quite handy.

  There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
  management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
  and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
  suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
  most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
  the future once they are needed.

  This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
  caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
  functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
  a pidfd.

  Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
  cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:

      https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/

  The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting
  the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"

====================
pull-request: bpf 2019-03-16

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Fix a umem memory leak on cleanup in AF_XDP, from Björn.

2) Fix BTF to properly resolve forward-declared enums into their corresponding
   full enum definition types during deduplication, from Andrii.

3) Fix libbpf to reject invalid flags in xsk_socket__create(), from Magnus.

4) Fix accessing invalid pointer returned from bpf_tcp_sock() and
   bpf_sk_fullsock() after bpf_sk_release() was called, from Martin.

5) Fix generation of load/store DW instructions in PPC JIT, from Naveen.

6) Various fixes in BPF helper function documentation in bpf.h UAPI header
   used to bpf-helpers(7) man page, from Quentin.

7) Fix segfault in BPF test_progs when prog loading failed, from Yonghong.

Add documentation for the BPF spinlock-related helpers to the doc in
bpf.h. I added the constraints and restrictions coming with the use of
spinlocks for BPF: not all of it is directly related to the use of the
helper, but I thought it would be nice for users to find them in the man
page.

This list of restrictions is nearly a verbatim copy of the list in
Alexei's commit log for those helpers.
