commit 34ca70ef7d3a9fa7e89151597db5e37ae1d429b4 upstream.

As discussed in the strace issue tracker, it appears that the sparc32
sysvipc support has been broken for the past 11 years. It was however
working in compat mode, which is how it must have escaped most of the
regular testing.

The problem is that a cleanup patch inadvertently changed the uid/gid
fields in struct ipc64_perm from 32-bit types to 16-bit types in uapi
headers.

Both glibc and uclibc-ng still use the original types, so they should
work fine with compat mode, but not natively.  Change the definitions
to use __kernel_uid32_t and __kernel_gid32_t again.

<title>locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key interface</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 11276d5306b8e5b438a36bbff855fe792d7eaa61 upstream.

There are various problems and short-comings with the current
static_key interface:

 - static_key_{true,false}() read like a branch depending on the key
   value, instead of the actual likely/unlikely branch depending on
   init value.

 - static_key_{true,false}() are, as stated above, tied to the
   static_key init values STATIC_KEY_INIT_{TRUE,FALSE}.

 - we're limited to the 2 (out of 4) possible options that compile to
   a default NOP because that's what our arch_static_branch() assembly
   emits.

So provide a new static_key interface:

  DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
  DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);

Which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.

Then allow:

   static_branch_likely()
   static_branch_unlikely()

to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case.

This means adding a second arch_static_branch_jump() assembly helper
which emits a JMP per default.

In order to determine the right instruction for the right state,
encode the branch type in the LSB of jump_entry::key.

This is the final step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:

  a833581e372a ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")

... but it also allows new static key combinations that will give us
performance enhancements in the subsequent patches.

<title>jump_label: Rename JUMP_LABEL_{EN,DIS}ABLE to JUMP_LABEL_{JMP,NOP}</title>

commit 76b235c6bcb16062d663e2ee96db0b69f2e6bc14 upstream.

Since we've already stepped away from ENABLE is a JMP and DISABLE is a
NOP with the branch_default bits, and are going to make it even worse,
rename it to make it all clearer.

This way we don't mix multiple levels of logic attributes, but have a
plain 'physical' name for what the current instruction patching status
of a jump label is.

This is a first step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:

  a833581e372a ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")

commit 55dd0df781e58ec23d218376ea4a676e7362a98c upstream.

Wrap asm/jump_label.h for all archs with #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__.
Since these are kernel only headers, we don't need #ifdef
__KERNEL__ so can simplify things a bit.

If an architecture wants to use jump labels in assembly, it
will still need to define a macro to create the __jump_table
entries (see ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH in the powerpc asm/jump_label.h
for an example).

commit a208fa8f33031b9e0aba44c7d1b7e68eb0cbd29e upstream.

We need to consistently enforce that keyed hashes cannot be used without
setting the key.  To do this we need a reliable way to determine whether
a given hash algorithm is keyed or not.  AF_ALG currently does this by
checking for the presence of a -&gt;setkey() method.  However, this is
actually slightly broken because the CRC-32 algorithms implement
-&gt;setkey() but can also be used without a key.  (The CRC-32 "key" is not
actually a cryptographic key but rather represents the initial state.
If not overridden, then a default initial state is used.)

Prepare to fix this by introducing a flag CRYPTO_ALG_OPTIONAL_KEY which
indicates that the algorithm has a -&gt;setkey() method, but it is not
required to be called.  Then set it on all the CRC-32 algorithms.

The same also applies to the Adler-32 implementation in Lustre.

Also, the cryptd and mcryptd templates have to pass through the flag
from their underlying algorithm.

[ Upstream commit 7cafc0b8bf130f038b0ec2dcdd6a9de6dc59b65a ]

We must handle data access exception as well as memory address unaligned
exceptions from return from trap window fill faults, not just normal
TLB misses.

Otherwise we can get an OOPS that looks like this:

The window trap handlers are slightly clever, the trap table entries for them are
composed of two pieces of code.  First comes the code that actually performs
the window fill or spill trap handling, and then there are three instructions at
the end which are for exception processing.

The userland register window fill handler is:

	add	%sp, STACK_BIAS + 0x00, %g1;		\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l0;			\
	mov	0x08, %g2;				\
	mov	0x10, %g3;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l1;			\
	mov	0x18, %g5;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l7;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i0;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i1;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i7;			\
	restored;					\
	retry; nop; nop; nop; nop;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_dax;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_mna;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup;

And the way this works is that if any of those memory accesses
generate an exception, the exception handler can revector to one of
those final three branch instructions depending upon which kind of
exception the memory access took.  In this way, the fault handler
doesn't have to know if it was a spill or a fill that it's handling
the fault for.  It just always branches to the last instruction in
the parent trap's handler.

For example, for a regular fault, the code goes:

winfix_trampoline:
	rdpr	%tpc, %g3
	or	%g3, 0x7c, %g3
	wrpr	%g3, %tnpc
	done

All window trap handlers are 0x80 aligned, so if we "or" 0x7c into the
trap time program counter, we'll get that final instruction in the
trap handler.

On return from trap, we have to pull the register window in but we do
this by hand instead of just executing a "restore" instruction for
several reasons.  The largest being that from Niagara and onward we
simply don't have enough levels in the trap stack to fully resolve all
possible exception cases of a window fault when we are already at
trap level 1 (which we enter to get ready to return from the original
trap).

This is executed inline via the FILL_*_RTRAP handlers.  rtrap_64.S's
code branches directly to these to do the window fill by hand if
necessary.  Now if you look at them, we'll see at the end:

	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;

And oops, all three cases are handled like a fault.

This doesn't work because each of these trap types (data access
exception, memory address unaligned, and faults) store their auxiliary
info in different registers to pass on to the C handler which does the
real work.

So in the case where the stack was unaligned, the unaligned trap
handler sets up the arg registers one way, and then we branched to
the fault handler which expects them setup another way.

So the FAULT_TYPE_* value ends up basically being garbage, and
randomly would generate the backtrace seen above.

On cheetahplus chips we take the ctx_alloc_lock in order to
modify the TLB lookup parameters for the indexed TLBs, which
are stored in the context register.

This is called with interrupts disabled, however ctx_alloc_lock
is an IRQ safe lock, therefore we must take acquire/release it
properly with spin_{lock,unlock}_irq().
