commit a5f05a138a8cac035bf9da9b6ed0e532bc7942c8 upstream.

Due to an apparent copy-paste bug, the parisc implementation of
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() doesn't actually do anything.
It enables the (already-enabled) static key rather than disabling it.

The result is that after function graph tracing has been "disabled", any
subsequent (non-graph) function tracing will inadvertently also enable
the slow fgraph return address hijacking.

<title>mm: refactor arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and arm64 MTE handling</title>

[ Upstream commit 5baf8b037debf4ec60108ccfeccb8636d1dbad81 ]

Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().

The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().

Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.

It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.

We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.

This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.

This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.

So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

commit 5d698966fa7b452035c44c937d704910bf3440dd upstream.

When userspace allocates memory with mmap() in order to be used for stack,
allow this memory region to automatically expand upwards up until the
current maximum process stack size.
The fault handler checks if the VM_GROWSUP bit is set in the vm_flags field
of a memory area before it allows it to expand.
This patch modifies the parisc specific code only.
A RFC for a generic patch to modify mmap() for all architectures was sent
to the mailing list but did not get enough Acks.

commit d24449864da5838936669618356b0e30ca2999c3 upstream.

Currently the glibc isn't yet ported to 64-bit for hppa, so
there is no usable userspace available yet.
But it's possible to manually build a static 64-bit binary
and run that for testing. One such 64-bit test program is
available at http://ftp.parisc-linux.org/src/64bit.tar.gz
and it shows various issues with the existing 64-bit syscall
path in the kernel.
This patch fixes those issues.

commit 9542130937e9dc707dd7c6b7af73326437da2d50 upstream.

For an itlb miss when executing code above 4 Gb on ILP64 adjust the
iasq/iaoq in the same way isr/ior was adjusted.  This fixes signal
delivery for the 64-bit static test program from
http://ftp.parisc-linux.org/src/64bit.tar.gz.  Note that signals are
handled by the signal trampoline code in the 64-bit VDSO which is mapped
into high userspace memory region above 4GB for 64-bit processes.

Do not write-protect the kernel read-only and __ro_after_init sections
earlier than before mark_rodata_ro() is called.  This fixes a boot issue on
parisc which is triggered by commit 91a1d97ef482 ("jump_label,module: Don't
alloc static_key_mod for __ro_after_init keys"). That commit may modify
static key contents in the __ro_after_init section at bootup, so this
section needs to be writable at least until mark_rodata_ro() is called.

<title>parisc: fix a possible DMA corruption</title>

ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was defined as 16 - this is too small - it may be
possible that two unrelated 16-byte allocations share a cache line. If
one of these allocations is written using DMA and the other is written
using cached write, the value that was written with DMA may be
corrupted.

This commit changes ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to be 128 on PA20 and 32 on PA1.1 -
that's the largest possible cache line size.

As different parisc microarchitectures have different cache line size, we
define arch_slab_minalign(), cache_line_size() and
dma_get_cache_alignment() so that the kernel may tune slab cache
parameters dynamically, based on the detected cache line size.

<title>parisc: fix unaligned accesses in BPF</title>

<id>1fd2c10acb7b35d72101a4619ee5b2cddb9efd3a</id>
<content type='text'>
There were spurious unaligned access warnings when calling BPF code.
Sometimes, the warnings were triggered with any incoming packet, making
the machine hard to use.

The reason for the warnings is this: on parisc64, pointers to functions
are not really pointers to functions, they are pointers to 16-byte
descriptor. The first 8 bytes of the descriptor is a pointer to the
function and the next 8 bytes of the descriptor is the content of the
"dp" register. This descriptor is generated in the function
bpf_jit_build_prologue.

The problem is that the function bpf_int_jit_compile advertises 4-byte
alignment when calling bpf_jit_binary_alloc, bpf_jit_binary_alloc
randomizes the returned array and if the array happens to be not aligned
on 8-byte boundary, the descriptor generated in bpf_jit_build_prologue is
also not aligned and this triggers the unaligned access warning.

Fix this by advertising 8-byte alignment on parisc64 when calling
bpf_jit_binary_alloc.

The problem is that the function bpf_int_jit_compile advertises 4-byte
alignment when calling bpf_jit_binary_alloc, bpf_jit_binary_alloc
randomizes the returned array and if the array happens to be not aligned
on 8-byte boundary, the descriptor generated in bpf_jit_build_prologue is
also not aligned and this triggers the unaligned access warning.

Fix this by advertising 8-byte alignment on parisc64 when calling
bpf_jit_binary_alloc.

Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller:
 "The gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() syscalls are now available as
  vDSO functions, and Dave added a patch which allows to use NVMe cards
  in the PCI slots as fast and easy alternative to SCSI discs.

  Summary:

   - add gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() vDSO functions

   - enable PCI_MSI_ARCH_FALLBACKS to allow PCI to PCIe bridge adaptor
     with PCIe NVME card to function in parisc machines

   - allow users to reduce kernel unaligned runtime warnings

   - minor code cleanups"

* tag 'parisc-for-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux:
  parisc: Add support for CONFIG_SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_NO_WARN
  parisc: Use max() to calculate parisc_tlb_flush_threshold
  parisc: Fix warning at drivers/pci/msi/msi.h:121
  parisc: Add 64-bit gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() vDSO functions
  parisc: Add 32-bit gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() vDSO functions

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.

  Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
  which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
  in here are:

   - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases
     to get here, finally!)

   - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
     interactions.

     It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type
     of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust
     drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which
     others can start their work.

     There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of
     rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step.

   - driver core const api changes.

     This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for
     some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook
     out.

     This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe,
     as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to
     put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet,
     but are getting closer.

   - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection

   - arch_topology minor changes

   - other minor driver core cleanups

  All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
  reported problems"
