Undefined behaviour in ./include/linux/time64.h:127:27
signed integer overflow:
17179869187 * 1000000000 cannot be represented in type 'long long int'

Commit bd40a175769d ("y2038: itimer: change implementation to timespec64")
replaced the original conversion which handled time clamping correctly with
timespec64_to_ns() which has no overflow protection.

Fix it in timespec64_to_ns() as this is not necessarily limited to the
usage in itimers.

<title>random32: add noise from network and scheduling activity</title>

<id>3744741adab6d9195551ce30e65e726c7a408421</id>
<content type='text'>
With the removal of the interrupt perturbations in previous random32
change (random32: make prandom_u32() output unpredictable), the PRNG
has become 100% deterministic again. While SipHash is expected to be
way more robust against brute force than the previous Tausworthe LFSR,
there's still the risk that whoever has even one temporary access to
the PRNG's internal state is able to predict all subsequent draws till
the next reseed (roughly every minute). This may happen through a side
channel attack or any data leak.

This patch restores the spirit of commit f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update
the net random state on interrupt and activity") in that it will perturb
the internal PRNG's statee using externally collected noise, except that
it will not pick that noise from the random pool's bits nor upon
interrupt, but will rather combine a few elements along the Tx path
that are collectively hard to predict, such as dev, skb and txq
pointers, packet length and jiffies values. These ones are combined
using a single round of SipHash into a single long variable that is
mixed with the net_rand_state upon each invocation.

The operation was inlined because it produces very small and efficient
code, typically 3 xor, 2 add and 2 rol. The performance was measured
to be the same (even very slightly better) than before the switch to
SipHash; on a 6-core 12-thread Core i7-8700k equipped with a 40G NIC
(i40e), the connection rate dropped from 556k/s to 555k/s while the
SYN cookie rate grew from 5.38 Mpps to 5.45 Mpps.

<content type='text'>
Non-cryptographic PRNGs may have great statistical properties, but
are usually trivially predictable to someone who knows the algorithm,
given a small sample of their output.  An LFSR like prandom_u32() is
particularly simple, even if the sample is widely scattered bits.

It turns out the network stack uses prandom_u32() for some things like
random port numbers which it would prefer are *not* trivially predictable.
Predictability led to a practical DNS spoofing attack.  Oops.

This patch replaces the LFSR with a homebrew cryptographic PRNG based
on the SipHash round function, which is in turn seeded with 128 bits
of strong random key.  (The authors of SipHash have *not* been consulted
about this abuse of their algorithm.)  Speed is prioritized over security;
attacks are rare, while performance is always wanted.

Replacing all callers of prandom_u32() is the quick fix.
Whether to reinstate a weaker PRNG for uses which can tolerate it
is an open question.

Commit f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt
and activity") was an earlier attempt at a solution.  This patch replaces
it.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "These are the locking updates for v5.10:

   - Add deadlock detection for recursive read-locks.

     The rationale is outlined in commit 224ec489d3cd ("lockdep/
     Documention: Recursive read lock detection reasoning")

     The main deadlock pattern we want to detect is:

           TASK A:                 TASK B:

           read_lock(X);
                                   write_lock(X);
           read_lock_2(X);

   - Add "latch sequence counters" (seqcount_latch_t):

     A sequence counter variant where the counter even/odd value is used
     to switch between two copies of protected data. This allows the
     read path, typically NMIs, to safely interrupt the write side
     critical section.

     We utilize this new variant for sched-clock, and to make x86 TSC
     handling safer.

   - Other seqlock cleanups, fixes and enhancements

   - KCSAN updates

   - LKMM updates

   - Misc updates, cleanups and fixes"

Pull timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for timekeeping, timers and related drivers:

  Core:

   - Early boot support for the NMI safe timekeeper by utilizing
     local_clock() up to the point where timekeeping is initialized.
     This allows printk() to store multiple timestamps in the ringbuffer
     which is useful for coordinating dmesg information across a fleet
     of machines.

   - Provide a multi-timestamp accessor for printk()

   - Make timer init more robust by checking for invalid timer flags.

   - Comma vs semicolon fixes

  Drivers:

   - Support for new platforms in existing drivers (SP804 and Renesas
     CMT)

   - Comma vs semicolon fixes

* tag 'timers-core-2020-10-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  clocksource/drivers/armada-370-xp: Use semicolons rather than commas to separate statements
  clocksource/drivers/mps2-timer: Use semicolons rather than commas to separate statements
  timers: Mask invalid flags in do_init_timer()
  clocksource/drivers/sp804: Enable Hisilicon sp804 timer 64bit mode
