commit 61e3acd8c693a14fc69b824cb5b08d02cb90a6e7 upstream.

The KUAP implementation adds calls in clear_user() to enable and
disable access to userspace memory. However, it doesn't add these to
__clear_user(), which is used in the ptrace regset code.

As there's only one direct user of __clear_user() (the regset code),
and the time taken to set the AMR for KUAP purposes is going to
dominate the cost of a quick access_ok(), there's not much point
having a separate path.

Rename __clear_user() to __arch_clear_user(), and make __clear_user()
just call clear_user().

<title>libfdt: define INT32_MAX and UINT32_MAX in libfdt_env.h</title>

[ Upstream commit a8de1304b7df30e3a14f2a8b9709bb4ff31a0385 ]

The DTC v1.5.1 added references to (U)INT32_MAX.

This is no problem for user-space programs since &lt;stdint.h&gt; defines
(U)INT32_MAX along with (u)int32_t.

For the kernel space, libfdt_env.h needs to be adjusted before we
pull in the changes.

In the kernel, we usually use s/u32 instead of (u)int32_t for the
fixed-width types.

Accordingly, we already have S/U32_MAX for their max values.
So, we should not add (U)INT32_MAX to &lt;linux/limits.h&gt; any more.

Instead, add them to the in-kernel libfdt_env.h to compile the
latest libfdt.

<title>powerpc: Don't add -mabi= flags when building with Clang</title>

[ Upstream commit 465bfd9c44dea6b55962b5788a23ac87a467c923 ]

When building pseries_defconfig, building vdso32 errors out:

  error: unknown target ABI 'elfv1'

This happens because -m32 in clang changes the target to 32-bit,
which does not allow the ABI to be changed.

Commit 4dc831aa8813 ("powerpc: Fix compiling a BE kernel with a
powerpc64le toolchain") added these flags to fix building big endian
kernels with a little endian GCC.

Clang doesn't need -mabi because the target triple controls the
default value. -mlittle-endian and -mbig-endian manipulate the triple
into either powerpc64-* or powerpc64le-*, which properly sets the
default ABI.

Adding a debug print out in the PPC64TargetInfo constructor after line
383 above shows this:

  $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null -
  Default ABI: elfv1

  $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null -
  Default ABI: elfv2

  $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null -
  Default ABI: elfv1

  $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null -
  Default ABI: elfv2

Don't specify -mabi when building with clang to avoid the build error
with -m32 and not change any code generation.

-mcall-aixdesc is not an implemented flag in clang so it can be safely
excluded as well, see commit 238abecde8ad ("powerpc: Don't use gcc
specific options on clang").

pseries_defconfig successfully builds after this patch and
powernv_defconfig and ppc44x_defconfig don't regress.

[ Upstream commit d7e02f7b7991dbe14a2acfb0e53d675cd149001c ]

Avoids confusion when printing Oops message like below

 Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000008bdb4
 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
 LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Radix MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA PowerNV

This was because we never clear the MMU_FTR_HPTE_TABLE feature flag
even if we run with radix translation. It was discussed that we should
look at this feature flag as an indication of the capability to run
hash translation and we should not clear the flag even if we run in
radix translation. All the code paths check for radix_enabled() check and
if found true consider we are running with radix translation. Follow the
same sequence for finding the MMU translation string to be used in Oops
message.

[ Upstream commit de84ffc3ccbeec3678f95a3d898fc188efa0d9c5 ]

Currently when an EEH error is detected, the system log receives the
same (or almost the same) message twice:

  EEH: PHB#0 failure detected, location: N/A
  EEH: PHB#0 failure detected, location: N/A
or
  EEH: eeh_dev_check_failure: Frozen PHB#0-PE#0 detected
  EEH: Frozen PHB#0-PE#0 detected

This looks like a bug, but in fact the messages are from different
functions and mean slightly different things.  So keep both but change
one of the messages slightly, so that it's clear they are different:

  EEH: PHB#0 failure detected, location: N/A
  EEH: Recovering PHB#0, location: N/A
or
  EEH: eeh_dev_check_failure: Frozen PHB#0-PE#0 detected
  EEH: Recovering PHB#0-PE#0

<title>powerpc/security: Fix wrong message when RFI Flush is disable</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 4e706af3cd8e1d0503c25332b30cad33c97ed442 ]

The issue was showing "Mitigation" message via sysfs whatever the
state of "RFI Flush", but it should show "Vulnerable" when it is
disabled.

If you have "L1D private" feature enabled and not "RFI Flush" you are
vulnerable to meltdown attacks.

"RFI Flush" is the key feature to mitigate the meltdown whatever the
"L1D private" state.

SEC_FTR_L1D_THREAD_PRIV is a feature for Power9 only.

So the message should be as the truth table shows:

  CPU | L1D private | RFI Flush |                sysfs
  ----|-------------|-----------|-------------------------------------
   P9 |    False    |   False   | Vulnerable
   P9 |    False    |   True    | Mitigation: RFI Flush
   P9 |    True     |   False   | Vulnerable: L1D private per thread
   P9 |    True     |   True    | Mitigation: RFI Flush, L1D private per thread
   P8 |    False    |   False   | Vulnerable
   P8 |    False    |   True    | Mitigation: RFI Flush

Output before this fix:
  # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown
  Mitigation: RFI Flush, L1D private per thread
  # echo 0 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
  # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown
  Mitigation: L1D private per thread

Output after fix:
  # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown
  Mitigation: RFI Flush, L1D private per thread
  # echo 0 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
  # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown
  Vulnerable: L1D private per thread

<title>powerpc/book3s64/hash: Add cond_resched to avoid soft lockup warning</title>

[ Upstream commit 16f6b67cf03cb43db7104acb2ca877bdc2606c92 ]

With large memory (8TB and more) hotplug, we can get soft lockup
warnings as below. These were caused by a long loop without any
explicit cond_resched which is a problem for !PREEMPT kernels.

Avoid this using cond_resched() while inserting hash page table
entries. We already do similar cond_resched() in __add_pages(), see
commit f64ac5e6e306 ("mm, memory_hotplug: add scheduling point to
__add_pages").
