[ Upstream commit c5f320ff8a79501bb59338278336ec43acb9d7e2 ]

gcc points out a mistake in the mca driver that goes back to before the
git history:

arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c: In function 'init_record_index_pools':
arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c:346:54: error: expression does not compute the number of elements in this array; element typ
e is 'int', not 'size_t' {aka 'long unsigned int'} [-Werror=sizeof-array-div]
  346 |         for (i = 1; i &lt; sizeof sal_log_sect_min_sizes/sizeof(size_t); i++)
      |                                                      ^

This is the same as sizeof(size_t), which is two shorter than the actual
array.  Use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro to get the correct calculation instead.

[ Upstream commit f2a419cf495f95cac49ea289318b833477e1a0e2 ]

The sleep warning happens at early boot right at secondary CPU
activation bootup:

    smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...
    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/page_alloc.c:4942

    Fixed BSP b0 value from CPU 1

As I understand interrupts are not enabled yet and system has a lot of
memory.  There is little chance to sleep and switch to GFP_ATOMIC should
be a no-op.

<title>ia64: fix ia64_syscall_get_set_arguments() for break-based syscalls</title>

[ Upstream commit 0ceb1ace4a2778e34a5414e5349712ae4dc41d85 ]

In https://bugs.gentoo.org/769614 Dmitry noticed that
`ptrace(PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO)` does not work for syscalls called via
glibc's syscall() wrapper.

ia64 has two ways to call syscalls from userspace: via `break` and via
`eps` instructions.

The difference is in stack layout:

1. `eps` creates simple stack frame: no locals, in{0..7} == out{0..8}
2. `break` uses userspace stack frame: may be locals (glibc provides
   one), in{0..7} == out{0..8}.

Both work fine in syscall handling cde itself.

But `ptrace(PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO)` uses unwind mechanism to
re-extract syscall arguments but it does not account for locals.

The change always skips locals registers. It should not change `eps`
path as kernel's handler already enforces locals=0 and fixes `break`.

Tested on v5.10 on rx3600 machine (ia64 9040 CPU).

[ Upstream commit c5e5c48c16422521d363c33cfb0dcf58f88c119b ]

The function free_module in file kernel/module.c as follow:

void free_module(struct module *mod) {
	......
	module_arch_cleanup(mod);
	......
	module_arch_freeing_init(mod);
	......
}

Both module_arch_cleanup and module_arch_freeing_init function
would free the mod-&gt;arch.init_unw_table, which cause double free.

Here, set mod-&gt;arch.init_unw_table = NULL after remove the unwind
table to avoid double free.

commit 768ae309a96103ed02eb1e111e838c87854d8b51 upstream.

This removes the 'write' and 'force' from get_user_pages() and replaces
them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers
as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs)
within the mm subsystem.

commit ebf003f0cfb3705e60d40dedc3ec949176c741af upstream.

Largely redundant code is used in different places to generate C headers
from offset information extracted from assembly language output.
Consolidate the code in Makefile.lib and use this instead.

commit ebf003f0cfb3705e60d40dedc3ec949176c741af upstream.

Largely redundant code is used in different places to generate C headers
from offset information extracted from assembly language output.
Consolidate the code in Makefile.lib and use this instead.

<title>ia64: fix module loading for gcc-5.4</title>

[ Upstream commit a25fb8508c1b80dce742dbeaa4d75a1e9f2c5617 ]

Starting from gcc-5.4+ gcc generates MLX instructions in more cases to
refer local symbols:

    https://gcc.gnu.org/PR60465

That caused ia64 module loader to choke on such instructions:

    fuse: invalid slot number 1 for IMM64

The Linux kernel used to handle only case where relocation pointed to
slot=2 instruction in the bundle.  That limitation was fixed in linux by
commit 9c184a073bfd ("[IA64] Fix 2.6 kernel for the new ia64 assembler")
See

    http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1433

This change lifts the slot=2 restriction from the kernel module loader.

Tested on 'fuse' and 'btrfs' kernel modules.

<title>[IA64] Wire up kcmp syscall</title>

systemd &gt; 218 fails to compile on ia64 with:

     error: ‘__NR_kcmp’ undeclared [1].

I've been told that this is because the kcmp syscall hasn't been wired up
for the ia64 arch [2].

The proposed patch thus wire up the kcmp syscall for the ia64 arch.
