Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This patch set consists of the usual driver updates (ufs, storvsc,
pm8001 hpsa). It also has removal of the user space target driver
code (everyone is using LIO now), a partial PCI MSI-X update, more
multi-queue updates, conversion to 64 bit LUNs (so we could
theoretically cope with any LUN returned by a device) and placeholder
support for the ZBC device type (Shingle drives), plus an assortment
of minor updates and bug fixes"

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"There've been many updates in ASoC side at this time, especially the
framework enhancement for multiple CODECs on a single DAI and more
componentization works.
The only major change in ALSA core is the addition of timestamp type
in sw_params field. This should behave in backward compatible way.
Other than that, there are lots of small changes and new drivers in
wide range, including a large code cut in HD-audio driver for
deprecated static quirks. Some highlights are below:
ALSA Core:
- Add the new timestamp type field to sw_params to choose
MONOTONIC_RAW type
HD-audio:
- Continued conversion to standard printk macros, generic code
cleanups
- Removal of obsoleted static quirk codes for Conexant and C-Media
codecs
- Fixups for HP Envy TS, Dell XPS 15, HP and Dell mute/mic LED,
Gigabyte BXBT-2807 mobo
- Intel Braswell support
ASoC:
- Support for multiple CODECs attached to a single DAI, enabling
systems with for example multiple DAC/speaker drivers on a single
link, contributed by Benoit Cousson based on work from Misael Lopez
Cruz
- Support for byte controls larger than 256 bytes based on the use of
TLVs contributed by Omair Mohammed Abdullah

5) Fix BREAK detection in sunsab driver when no actual characters are
pending, from Christopher Alexander Tobias Schulze.
6) Because we have modules --> openfirmware --> vmalloc ordering of
virtual memory, the lazy VMAP TLB flusher can cons up an invocation
of flush_tlb_kernel_range() that covers the openfirmware address
range. Unfortunately this will flush out the firmware's locked TLB
mapping which causes all kinds of trouble. Just split up the flush
request if this happens, but in the long term the lazy VMAP flusher
should probably be made a little bit smarter.

"A rather large update of timers, timekeeping & co
- Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)
- Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.
- Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.
- Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs. Some of it
definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.
- Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.
- A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing. This is a
long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
traces. With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
for correlation of traces accross separate machines.
- Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.
- A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.
- Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.
- New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe. I'm really
impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
specific timers.
[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]

of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for
a few obnoxious strongholds.

Commit ea431643d6c3 ("x86/mce: Fix CMCI preemption bugs") breaks RT by
the completely unrelated conversion of the cmci_discover_lock to a
regular (non raw) spinlock. This lock was annotated in commit
59d958d2c7de ("locking, x86: mce: Annotate cmci_discover_lock as raw")
with a proper explanation why.
The argument for converting the lock back to a regular spinlock was:
- it does percpu ops without disabling preemption. Preemption is not
disabled due to the mistaken use of a raw spinlock.
Which is complete nonsense. The raw_spinlock is disabling preemption in
the same way as a regular spinlock. In mainline spinlock maps to
raw_spinlock, in RT spinlock becomes a "sleeping" lock.
raw_spinlock has on RT exactly the same semantics as in mainline. And
because this lock is taken in non preemptible context it must be raw on
RT.
Undo the locking brainfart.

The getrandom(2) system call was requested by the LibreSSL Portable
developers. It is analoguous to the getentropy(2) system call in
OpenBSD.
The rationale of this system call is to provide resiliance against
file descriptor exhaustion attacks, where the attacker consumes all
available file descriptors, forcing the use of the fallback code where
/dev/[u]random is not available. Since the fallback code is often not
well-tested, it is better to eliminate this potential failure mode
entirely.
The other feature provided by this new system call is the ability to
request randomness from the /dev/urandom entropy pool, but to block
until at least 128 bits of entropy has been accumulated in the
/dev/urandom entropy pool. Historically, the emphasis in the
/dev/urandom development has been to ensure that urandom pool is
initialized as quickly as possible after system boot, and preferably
before the init scripts start execution.
This is because changing /dev/urandom reads to block represents an
interface change that could potentially break userspace which is not
acceptable. In practice, on most x86 desktop and server systems, in
general the entropy pool can be initialized before it is needed (and
in modern kernels, we will printk a warning message if not). However,
on an embedded system, this may not be the case. And so with this new
interface, we can provide the functionality of blocking until the
urandom pool has been initialized. Any userspace program which uses
this new functionality must take care to assure that if it is used
during the boot process, that it will not cause the init scripts or
other portions of the system startup to hang indefinitely.
SYNOPSIS
#include <linux/random.h>
int getrandom(void *buf, size_t buflen, unsigned int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The system call getrandom() fills the buffer pointed to by buf
with up to buflen random bytes which can be used to seed user
space random number generators (i.e., DRBG's) or for other
cryptographic uses. It should not be used for Monte Carlo
simulations or other programs/algorithms which are doing
probabilistic sampling.
If the GRND_RANDOM flags bit is set, then draw from the
/dev/random pool instead of the /dev/urandom pool. The
/dev/random pool is limited based on the entropy that can be
obtained from environmental noise, so if there is insufficient
entropy, the requested number of bytes may not be returned.
If there is no entropy available at all, getrandom(2) will
either block, or return an error with errno set to EAGAIN if
the GRND_NONBLOCK bit is set in flags.
If the GRND_RANDOM bit is not set, then the /dev/urandom pool
will be used. Unlike using read(2) to fetch data from
/dev/urandom, if the urandom pool has not been sufficiently
initialized, getrandom(2) will block (or return -1 with the
errno set to EAGAIN if the GRND_NONBLOCK bit is set in flags).
The getentropy(2) system call in OpenBSD can be emulated using
the following function:
int getentropy(void *buf, size_t buflen)
{
int ret;
if (buflen > 256)
goto failure;
ret = getrandom(buf, buflen, 0);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
if (ret == buflen)
return 0;
failure:
errno = EIO;
return -1;
}
RETURN VALUE
On success, the number of bytes that was filled in the buf is
returned. This may not be all the bytes requested by the
caller via buflen if insufficient entropy was present in the
/dev/random pool, or if the system call was interrupted by a
signal.
On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EINVAL An invalid flag was passed to getrandom(2)
EFAULT buf is outside the accessible address space.
EAGAIN The requested entropy was not available, and
getentropy(2) would have blocked if the
GRND_NONBLOCK flag was not set.
EINTR While blocked waiting for entropy, the call was
interrupted by a signal handler; see the description
of how interrupted read(2) calls on "slow" devices
are handled with and without the SA_RESTART flag
in the signal(7) man page.
NOTES
For small requests (buflen <= 256) getrandom(2) will not
return EINTR when reading from the urandom pool once the
entropy pool has been initialized, and it will return all of
the bytes that have been requested. This is the recommended
way to use getrandom(2), and is designed for compatibility
with OpenBSD's getentropy() system call.
However, if you are using GRND_RANDOM, then getrandom(2) may
block until the entropy accounting determines that sufficient
environmental noise has been gathered such that getrandom(2)
will be operating as a NRBG instead of a DRBG for those people
who are working in the NIST SP 800-90 regime. Since it may
block for a long time, these guarantees do *not* apply. The
user may want to interrupt a hanging process using a signal,
so blocking until all of the requested bytes are returned
would be unfriendly.
For this reason, the user of getrandom(2) MUST always check
the return value, in case it returns some error, or if fewer
bytes than requested was returned. In the case of
!GRND_RANDOM and small request, the latter should never
happen, but the careful userspace code (and all crypto code
should be careful) should check for this anyway!
Finally, unless you are doing long-term key generation (and
perhaps not even then), you probably shouldn't be using
GRND_RANDOM. The cryptographic algorithms used for
/dev/urandom are quite conservative, and so should be
sufficient for all purposes. The disadvantage of GRND_RANDOM
is that it can block, and the increased complexity required to
deal with partially fulfilled getrandom(2) requests.

The latter is preparatory work for enabling some code re-use with
arm64 in the future.
- updates for nommu from Uwe Kleine-König:
Two different fixes for the same problem making some ARM nommu
configurations not boot since 3.6-rc1. The problem is that
user_addr_max returned the biggest available RAM address which
makes some copy_from_user variants fail to read from XIP memory.
- deprecate legacy OMAP DMA API, in preparation for it's removal.
The popular drivers have been converted over, leaving a very small
number of rarely used drivers, which hopefully can be converted
during the next cycle with a bit more visibility (and hopefully
people popping out of the woodwork to help test)
- more tweaks for BE systems, particularly with the kernel image
format. In connection with this, I've cleaned up the way we
generate the linker script for the decompressor.
- removal of hard-coded assumptions of the kernel stack size, making
everywhere depend on the value of THREAD_SIZE_ORDER.
- MCPM updates from Nicolas Pitre.
- Make it easier for proper CPU part number checks (which should
always include the vendor field).
- Assembly code optimisation - use the "bx" instruction when
returning from a function on ARMv6+ rather than "mov pc, reg".
- Save the last kernel misaligned fault location and report it via
the procfs alignment file.
- Clean up the way we create the initial stack frame, which is a
repeated pattern in several different locations.
- Support for 8-byte get_user(), needed for some DRM implementations.
- mcs locking from Will Deacon.
- Save and restore a few more Cortex-A9 registers (for errata
workarounds)
- Fix various aspects of the SWP emulation, and the ELF hwcap for the
SWP instruction.
- Update LPAE logic for pte_write and pmd_write to make it more
correct.
- Support for Broadcom Brahma15 CPU cores.
- ARM assembly crypto updates from Ard Biesheuvel"

This commit is a guesswork, but it seems to make sense to drop this
break, as otherwise the following line is never executed and becomes
dead code. And that following line actually saves the result of
local calculation by the pointer given in function argument. So the
proposed change makes sense if this code in the whole makes sense (but I
am unable to analyze it in the whole).

The LDC handshake could have been asynchronously triggered
after ldc_bind() enables the ldc_rx() receive interrupt-handler
(and thus intercepts incoming control packets)
and before vio_port_up() calls ldc_connect(). If that is the case,
ldc_connect() should return 0 and let the state-machine
progress.

Based almost entirely upon a patch by Christopher Alexander Tobias
Schulze.
In commit db64fe02258f1507e13fe5212a989922323685ce ("mm: rewrite vmap
layer") lazy VMAP tlb flushing was added to the vmalloc layer. This
causes problems on sparc64.
Sparc64 has two VMAP mapped regions and they are not contiguous with
eachother. First we have the malloc mapping area, then another
unrelated region, then the vmalloc region.
This "another unrelated region" is where the firmware is mapped.
If the lazy TLB flushing logic in the vmalloc code triggers after
we've had both a module unload and a vfree or similar, it will pass an
address range that goes from somewhere inside the malloc region to
somewhere inside the vmalloc region, and thus covering the
openfirmware area entirely.
The sparc64 kernel learns about openfirmware's dynamic mappings in
this region early in the boot, and then services TLB misses in this
area. But openfirmware has some locked TLB entries which are not
mentioned in those dynamic mappings and we should thus not disturb
them.
These huge lazy TLB flush ranges causes those openfirmware locked TLB
entries to be removed, resulting in all kinds of problems including
hard hangs and crashes during reboot/reset.
Besides causing problems like this, such huge TLB flush ranges are
also incredibly inefficient. A plea has been made with the author of
the VMAP lazy TLB flushing code, but for now we'll put a safety guard
into our flush_tlb_kernel_range() implementation.
Since the implementation has become non-trivial, stop defining it as a
macro and instead make it a function in a C source file.

The assumption was that update_mmu_cache() (and the equivalent for PMDs) would
only be called when the PTE being installed will be accessible by the user.
This is not true for code paths originating from remove_migration_pte().
There are dire consequences for placing a non-valid PTE into the TSB. The TLB
miss frramework assumes thatwhen a TSB entry matches we can just load it into
the TLB and return from the TLB miss trap.
So if a non-valid PTE is in there, we will deadlock taking the TLB miss over
and over, never satisfying the miss.
Just exit early from update_mmu_cache() and friends in this situation.
Based upon a report and patch from Christopher Alexander Tobias Schulze.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"Once again, Catalin's off on holiday and I'm looking after the arm64
tree. Please can you pull the following arm64 updates for 3.17?
Note that this branch also includes the new GICv3 driver (merged via a
stable tag from Jason's irqchip tree), since there is a fix for older
binutils on top.
Changes include:
- context tracking support (NO_HZ_FULL) which narrowly missed 3.16
- vDSO layout rework following Andy's work on x86
- TEXT_OFFSET fuzzing for bootloader testing
- /proc/cpuinfo tidy-up
- preliminary work to support 48-bit virtual addresses, but this is
currently disabled until KVM has been ported to use it (the patches
do, however, bring some nice clean-up)
- boot-time CPU sanity checks (especially useful on heterogenous
systems)
- support for syscall auditing
- support for CC_STACKPROTECTOR
- defconfig updates"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"This pull request has a lot of work done. The main thing is the
changes to the ftrace function callback infrastructure. It's
introducing a way to allow different functions to call directly
different trampolines instead of all calling the same "mcount" one.
The only user of this for now is the function graph tracer, which
always had a different trampoline, but the function tracer trampoline
was called and did basically nothing, and then the function graph
tracer trampoline was called. The difference now, is that the
function graph tracer trampoline can be called directly if a function
is only being traced by the function graph trampoline. If function
tracing is also happening on the same function, the old way is still
done.
The accounting for this takes up more memory when function graph
tracing is activated, as it needs to keep track of which functions it
uses. I have a new way that wont take as much memory, but it's not
ready yet for this merge window, and will have to wait for the next
one.
Another big change was the removal of the ftrace_start/stop() calls
that were used by the suspend/resume code that stopped function
tracing when entering into suspend and resume paths. The stop of
ftrace was done because there was some function that would crash the
system if one called smp_processor_id()! The stop/start was a big
hammer to solve the issue at the time, which was when ftrace was first
introduced into Linux. Now ftrace has better infrastructure to debug
such issues, and I found the problem function and labeled it with
"notrace" and function tracing can now safely be activated all the way
down into the guts of suspend and resume
Other changes include clean ups of uprobe code, clean up of the
trace_seq() code, and other various small fixes and clean ups to
ftrace and tracing"
