commit d0ffb805b729322626639336986bc83fc2e60871 upstream.

Alpha has had c_ispeed and c_ospeed, but still set speeds in c_cflags
using arbitrary flags. Because BOTHER is not defined, the general
Linux code doesn't allow setting arbitrary baud rates, and because
CBAUDEX == 0, we can have an array overrun of the baud_rate[] table in
drivers/tty/tty_baudrate.c if (c_cflags &amp; CBAUD) == 037.

Resolve both problems by #defining BOTHER to 037 on Alpha.

However, userspace still needs to know if setting BOTHER is actually
safe given legacy kernels (does anyone actually care about that on
Alpha anymore?), so enable the TCGETS2/TCSETS*2 ioctls on Alpha, even
though they use the same structure. Define struct termios2 just for
compatibility; it is the exact same structure as struct termios. In a
future patchset, this will be cleaned up so the uapi headers are
usable from libc.

<title>sys: don't hold uts_sem while accessing userspace memory</title>

commit 42a0cc3478584d4d63f68f2f5af021ddbea771fa upstream.

Holding uts_sem as a writer while accessing userspace memory allows a
namespace admin to stall all processes that attempt to take uts_sem.
Instead, move data through stack buffers and don't access userspace memory
while uts_sem is held.

<title>locking/xchg/alpha: Fix xchg() and cmpxchg() memory ordering bugs</title>

[ Upstream commit 472e8c55cf6622d1c112dc2bc777f68bbd4189db ]

Successful RMW operations are supposed to be fully ordered, but
Alpha's xchg() and cmpxchg() do not meet this requirement.

Will Deacon noticed the bug:

  &gt; So MP using xchg:
  &gt;
  &gt; WRITE_ONCE(x, 1)
  &gt; xchg(y, 1)
  &gt;
  &gt; smp_load_acquire(y) == 1
  &gt; READ_ONCE(x) == 0
  &gt;
  &gt; would be allowed.

... which thus violates the above requirement.

Fix it by adding a leading smp_mb() to the xchg() and cmpxchg() implementations.

Continuing along with the fight against smp_read_barrier_depends() [1]
(or rather, against its improper use), add an unconditional barrier to
cmpxchg.  This guarantees that dependency ordering is preserved when a
dependency is headed by an unsuccessful cmpxchg.  As it turns out, the
change could enable further simplification of LKMM as proposed in [2].

<title>futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined behaviour</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 30d6e0a4190d37740e9447e4e4815f06992dd8c3 upstream.

There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
and comparison of the result.

Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.

This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
commit 5f16a046f8e1 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.

And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.

Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a29703 ("s390/uaccess:
remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets
optimized away anyway).

<title>vgacon: Set VGA struct resource types</title>

[ Upstream commit c82084117f79bcae085e40da526253736a247120 ]

Set the resource type when we reserve VGA-related I/O port resources.

The resource code doesn't actually look at the type, so it inserts
resources without a type in the tree correctly even without this change.
But if we ever print a resource without a type, it looks like this:

  vga+ [??? 0x000003c0-0x000003df flags 0x0]

Setting the type means it will be printed correctly as:

  vga+ [io  0x000003c0-0x000003df]

commit 55fc633c41a08ce9244ff5f528f420b16b1e04d6 upstream.

We need to define NEED_SRM_SAVE_RESTORE on the Avanti, otherwise we get
machine check exception when attempting to reboot the machine.

<title>alpha: fix crash if pthread_create races with signal delivery</title>

commit 21ffceda1c8b3807615c40d440d7815e0c85d366 upstream.

On alpha, a process will crash if it attempts to start a thread and a
signal is delivered at the same time. The crash can be reproduced with
this program: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-11/msg00473.html

The reason for the crash is this:
* we call the clone syscall
* we go to the function copy_process
* copy process calls copy_thread_tls, it is a wrapper around copy_thread
* copy_thread sets the tls pointer: childti-&gt;pcb.unique = regs-&gt;r20
* copy_thread sets regs-&gt;r20 to zero
* we go back to copy_process
* copy process checks "if (signal_pending(current))" and returns
  -ERESTARTNOINTR
* the clone syscall is restarted, but this time, regs-&gt;r20 is zero, so
  the new thread is created with zero tls pointer
* the new thread crashes in start_thread when attempting to access tls

The comment in the code says that setting the register r20 is some
compatibility with OSF/1. But OSF/1 doesn't use the CLONE_SETTLS flag, so
we don't have to zero r20 if CLONE_SETTLS is set. This patch fixes the bug
by zeroing regs-&gt;r20 only if CLONE_SETTLS is not set.

commit 8ee912dab95f1483156b6e994004bfcc3158d798 upstream.

The build of alpha allmodconfig is giving error:

  arch/alpha/include/asm/mmu_context.h: In function 'ev5_switch_mm':
  arch/alpha/include/asm/mmu_context.h:160:2: error:
	implicit declaration of function 'task_thread_info';
	did you mean 'init_thread_info'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

The file 'mmu_context.h' needed an extra header file.
