Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
upstreamed via the arm64 tree
- CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
where CPUs may not have exactly the same features. The features
reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)
- Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT
- Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64
- New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
feasible)
- KASan support for arm64
- EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
KASan)
- copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)
- perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework
- L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware
- Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive
entries may be able to use a single TLB entry)
- Generic CONFIG_HZ now used on arm64
- defconfig updates

Now that we added special handling to the C files in libstub, move
the one remaining arm64 specific EFI stub C file to libstub as
well, so that it gets the same treatment. This should prevent future
changes from resulting in binaries that may execute incorrectly in
UEFI context.
With efi-entry.S the only remaining EFI stub source file under
arch/arm64, we can also simplify the Makefile logic somewhat.

Commit:
0f96a99dab36 ("efi: Add "efi_fake_mem" boot option")
introduced the following warning message:
drivers/firmware/efi/fake_mem.c:186:20: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
new_memmap_phy was defined as a u64 value and cast to void*,
causing a int-to-pointer-cast warning on x86 32-bit builds.
However, since the void* type is inappropriate for a physical
address, the definition of struct efi_memory_map::phys_map has
been changed to phys_addr_t in the previous patch, and so the
cast can be dropped entirely.
This patch also changes the type of the "new_memmap_phy"
variable from "u64" to "phys_addr_t" to align with the types of
memblock_alloc() and struct efi_memory_map::phys_map.

We have been getting away with using a void* for the physical
address of the UEFI memory map, since, even on 32-bit platforms
with 64-bit physical addresses, no truncation takes place if the
memory map has been allocated by the firmware (which only uses
1:1 virtually addressable memory), which is usually the case.
However, commit:
0f96a99dab36 ("efi: Add "efi_fake_mem" boot option")
adds code that clones and modifies the UEFI memory map, and the
clone may live above 4 GB on 32-bit platforms.
This means our use of void* for struct efi_memory_map::phys_map has
graduated from 'incorrect but working' to 'incorrect and
broken', and we need to fix it.
So redefine struct efi_memory_map::phys_map as phys_addr_t, and
get rid of a bunch of casts that are now unneeded.

Pull v4.4 EFI updates from Matt Fleming:
- Make the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) driver explicitly
non-modular by ripping out the module_* code since Kconfig doesn't
allow it to be built as a module anyway. (Paul Gortmaker)
- Make the x86 efi=debug kernel parameter, which enables EFI debug
code and output, generic and usable by arm64. (Leif Lindholm)
- Add support to the x86 EFI boot stub for 64-bit Graphics Output
Protocol frame buffer addresses. (Matt Fleming)
- Detect when the UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE feature is enabled
in the firmware and set an efi.flags bit so the kernel knows when
it can apply more strict runtime mapping attributes - Ard Biesheuvel
- Auto-load the efi-pstore module on EFI systems, just like we
currently do for the efivars module. (Ben Hutchings)
- Add "efi_fake_mem" kernel parameter which allows the system's EFI
memory map to be updated with additional attributes for specific
memory ranges. This is useful for testing the kernel code that handles
the EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE memmap bit even if your firmware
doesn't include support. (Taku Izumi)
Note: there is a semantic conflict between the following two commits:
8a53554e12e9 ("x86/efi: Fix multiple GOP device support")
ae2ee627dc87 ("efifb: Add support for 64-bit frame buffer addresses")

This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer
(see Documentation/kasan.txt).
1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. There was no
big enough hole for this, so virtual addresses for shadow were
stolen from vmalloc area.
At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just
one physical page (kasan_zero_page). Later, this page reused
as readonly zero shadow for some memory that KASan currently
don't track (vmalloc).
After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are
allocated and mapped.
Functions like memset/memmove/memcpy do a lot of memory accesses.
If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important
to catch this. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since
these functions are written in assembly.
KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants.
Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions
in mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases
with '__' prefix in name, so we could call non-instrumented variant
if needed.
Some files built without kasan instrumentation (e.g. mm/slub.c).
Original mem* function replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants
to disable memory access checks for such files.

Since arm64 does not use a builtin decompressor, the EFI stub is built
into the kernel proper. So far, this has been working fine, but actually,
since the stub is in fact a PE/COFF relocatable binary that is executed
at an unknown offset in the 1:1 mapping provided by the UEFI firmware, we
should not be seamlessly sharing code with the kernel proper, which is a
position dependent executable linked at a high virtual offset.
So instead, separate the contents of libstub and its dependencies, by
putting them into their own namespace by prefixing all of its symbols
with __efistub. This way, we have tight control over what parts of the
kernel proper are referenced by the stub.

This patch introduces new boot option named "efi_fake_mem".
By specifying this parameter, you can add arbitrary attribute
to specific memory range.
This is useful for debugging of Address Range Mirroring feature.
For example, if "efi_fake_mem=2G@4G:0x10000,2G@0x10a0000000:0x10000"
is specified, the original (firmware provided) EFI memmap will be
updated so that the specified memory regions have
EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE attribute (0x10000):
<original>

The Kconfig for this driver is currently hidden with:
config EFI_ESRT
bool
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.
We leave some tags like MODULE_AUTHOR for documentation purposes.
We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that.

Guenter reports that commit:
7bf793115dd9 ("efi, x86: Rearrange efi_mem_attributes()")
breaks the IA64 compilation with the following error:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `efi_mem_attributes': (.text+0xde962): undefined reference to `memmap'
Instead of using the (rather poorly named) global variable
'memmap' which doesn't exist on IA64, use efi.memmap which
points to the 'memmap' object on x86 and arm64 and which is NULL
for IA64.
The fact that efi.memmap is NULL for IA64 is OK because IA64
provides its own implementation of efi_mem_attributes().

The new Properties Table feature introduced in UEFIv2.5 may
split memory regions that cover PE/COFF memory images into
separate code and data regions. Since these regions only differ
in the type (runtime code vs runtime data) and the permission
bits, but not in the memory type attributes (UC/WC/WT/WB), the
spec does not require them to be aligned to 64 KB.
Since the relative offset of PE/COFF .text and .data segments
cannot be changed on the fly, this means that we can no longer
pad out those regions to be mappable using 64 KB pages.
Unfortunately, there is no annotation in the UEFI memory map
that identifies data regions that were split off from a code
region, so we must apply this logic to all adjacent runtime
regions whose attributes only differ in the permission bits.
So instead of rounding each memory region to 64 KB alignment at
both ends, only round down regions that are not directly
preceded by another runtime region with the same type
attributes. Since the UEFI spec does not mandate that the memory
map be sorted, this means we also need to sort it first.
Note that this change will result in all EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME
regions whose start addresses are not aligned to the OS page
size to be mapped with executable permissions (i.e., on kernels
compiled with 64 KB pages). However, since these mappings are
only active during the time that UEFI Runtime Services are being
invoked, the window for abuse is rather small.

In not-instrumented code KASAN replaces instrumented memset/memcpy/memmove
with not-instrumented analogues __memset/__memcpy/__memove.
However, on x86 the EFI stub is not linked with the kernel. It uses
not-instrumented mem*() functions from arch/x86/boot/compressed/string.c
So we don't replace them with __mem*() variants in EFI stub.
On ARM64 the EFI stub is linked with the kernel, so we should replace
mem*() functions with __mem*(), because the EFI stub runs before KASAN
sets up early shadow.
So let's move these #undef mem* into arch's asm/efi.h which is also
included by the EFI stub.
Also, this will fix the warning in 32-bit build reported by kbuild test
robot:

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I
split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.
And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.
The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use
kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.
Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.
Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to
kexec_load syscall.

Pull ARM development updates from Russell King:
"Included in this update:
- moving PSCI code from ARM64/ARM to drivers/
- removal of some architecture internals from global kernel view
- addition of software based "privileged no access" support using the
old domains register to turn off the ability for kernel
loads/stores to access userspace. Only the proper accessors will
be usable.
- addition of early fixup support for early console
- re-addition (and reimplementation) of OMAP special interconnect
barrier
- removal of finish_arch_switch()
- only expose cpuX/online in sysfs if hotpluggable

Rathe rthan directly accessing architecture internal functions, provide
an "method"-centric wrapper for qcom_scm-32 to do what's necessary to
ensure that the secure monitor can see the data. This is called
"secure_flush_area" and ensures that the specified memory area is
coherent across the secure boundary.

x86 and ia64 implement efi_mem_attributes() differently. This
function needs to be available for other architectures
(such as arm64) as well, such as for the purpose of ACPI/APEI.
ia64 EFI does not set up a 'memmap' variable and does not set
the EFI_MEMMAP flag, so it needs to have its unique implementation
of efi_mem_attributes().
Move efi_mem_attributes() implementation from x86 to the core
EFI code, and declare it with __weak.
It is recommended that other architectures should not override
the default implementation.

The UEFI spec v2.5 introduces a new memory attribute
EFI_MEMORY_RO, which is now the preferred attribute to convey
that the nature of the contents of such a region allows it to be
mapped read-only (i.e., it contains .text and .rodata only).
The specification of the existing EFI_MEMORY_WP attribute has been
updated to align more closely with its common use as a
cacheability attribute rather than a permission attribute.
Add the #define and add the attribute to the memory map dumping
routine.

A 32-bit OS cannot make calls with SMC64 IDs, while a 64-bit OS must
invoke some PSCI functions with SMC64 IDs.
This patch introduces and makes use of a new macro to choose the
appropriate IDs based on the register width of the OS, which will allow
32-bit callers to use the PSCI client code.

Even though it is documented how to specifiy efi parameters, it is
possible to cause a kernel panic due to a dereference of a NULL pointer when
parsing such parameters if "efi" alone is given:

This panic is not reproducible with "efi=" as this will result in a non-NULL

Thus, verify that the pointer to the parameter string is not NULL. This is
consistent with other parameter-parsing functions which check for NULL pointers.

Pull an EFI fix from Matt Fleming:
- Fix a bug in the Common Platform Error Record (CPER) driver that
caused old UEFI spec (< 2.3) versions of the memory error record
structure to be declared invalid. (Tony Luck)
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

The memory error record structure includes as its first field a
bitmask of which subsequent fields are valid. The allows new fields
to be added to the structure while keeping compatibility with older
software that parses these records. This mechanism was used between
versions 2.2 and 2.3 to add four new fields, growing the size of the
structure from 73 bytes to 80. But Linux just added all the new
fields so this test:
if (gdata->error_data_length >= sizeof(*mem_err))
cper_print_mem(newpfx, mem_err);
else
goto err_section_too_small;
now make Linux complain about old format records being too short.
Add a definition for the old format of the structure and use that
for the minimum size check. Pass the actual size to cper_print_mem()
so it can sanity check the validation_bits field to ensure that if
a BIOS using the old format sets bits as if it were new, we won't
access fields beyond the end of the structure.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.
Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.
There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems
mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree
directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories
for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container
projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.
This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime,
read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
attributes remains for another time.
This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of
/proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
converted) and is not now actively wrong.
There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
I will mention briefly.
It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user
namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly
so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
performance part of pathname resolution.
As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
they are recognized"

Some utils, like dmidecode and smbios, need to access SMBIOS entry
table area in order to get information like SMBIOS version, size, etc.
Currently it's done via /dev/mem. But for situation when /dev/mem
usage is disabled, the utils have to use dmi sysfs instead, which
doesn't represent SMBIOS entry and adds code/delay redundancy when direct
access for table is needed.
So this patch creates dmi/tables and adds SMBIOS entry point to allow
utils in question to work correctly without /dev/mem. Also patch adds
raw dmi table to simplify dmi table processing in user space, as
proposed by Jean Delvare.

The SMBIOS v3 entry points specify a maximum length for the DMI table,
not the exact length. Thus there may be garbage after the end-of-table
marker, which we don't want to export to user-space. Adjust dmi_len
when we find the end-of-table marker, so that only the actual table
payload is exported.
