commit 97ee351b50a49717543533cfb85b4bf9d88c9680 upstream.

Recent toolchains force the TOC to be 256 byte aligned. We need to
enforce this alignment in the zImage linker script, otherwise pointers
to our TOC variables (__toc_start) could be incorrect. If the actual
start of the TOC and __toc_start don't have the same value we crash
early in the zImage wrapper.

commit 73580dac7618e4bcd21679f553cf3c97323fec46 upstream.

On those parisc machines which don't provide a software power off
function, the system currently kills the init process at the end of a
shutdown and unexpectedly restarts insteads of halting.
Fix it by adding a loop which will not return.

commit 5f655322b1ba4bd46e26e307d04098f9c84df764 upstream.

The parisc kernel doesn't work with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS since the commit
71810db27c1c853b335675bee335d893bc3d324b. It can't load modules with the
error: "module unix: Unknown relocation: 41".

The commit changes __kcrctab from 64-bit valus to 32-bit values. The
assembler generates R_PARISC_SECREL32 secrel relocation for them and the
module loader doesn't support this relocation.

This patch adds the R_PARISC_SECREL32 relocation to the module loader.

commit 316ec0624f951166daedbe446988ef92ae72b59f upstream.

The previously submitted patch did not resolve the random segmentation
faults observed on the phantom buildd system.  There are still
unresolved problems with the Debian 4.8 and 4.9 kernels on C8000.

The attached patch removes the flush of the offset map pages and does a
whole data cache flush for large ranges.  No other arch flushes the
offset map in these routines as far as I can tell.

I have not observed any random segmentation faults on rp3440 in two
weeks of testing with 4.10.0 and 4.10.1.

<title>crypto: powerpc - Fix initialisation of crc32c context</title>

commit aa2be9b3d6d2d699e9ca7cbfc00867c80e5da213 upstream.

Turning on crypto self-tests on a POWER8 shows:

    alg: hash: Test 1 failed for crc32c-vpmsum
    00000000: ff ff ff ff

Comparing the code with the Intel CRC32c implementation on which
ours is based shows that we are doing an init with 0, not ~0
as CRC32c requires.

This probably wasn't caught because btrfs does its own weird
open-coded initialisation.

Initialise our internal context to ~0 on init.

This makes the self-tests pass, and btrfs continues to work.

<title>x86/perf: Fix CR4.PCE propagation to use active_mm instead of mm</title>

commit 5dc855d44c2ad960a86f593c60461f1ae1566b6d upstream.

If one thread mmaps a perf event while another thread in the same mm
is in some context where active_mm != mm (which can happen in the
scheduler, for example), refresh_pce() would write the wrong value
to CR4.PCE.  This broke some PAPI tests.

<title>x86/intel_rdt: Put group node in rdtgroup_kn_unlock</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 49ec8f5b6ae3ab60385492cad900ffc8a523c895 upstream.

The rdtgroup_kn_unlock waits for the last user to release and put its
node. But it's calling kernfs_put on the node which calls the
rdtgroup_kn_unlock, which might not be the group's directory node, but
another group's file node.

This race could be easily reproduced by running 2 instances
of following script:

  mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
  pushd /sys/fs/resctrl/
  mkdir krava
  echo "krava" &gt; krava/schemata
  rmdir krava
  popd
  umount  /sys/fs/resctrl

It triggers the slub debug error message with following command
line config: slub_debug=,kernfs_node_cache.

Call kernfs_put on the group's node to fix it.

commit be3606ff739d1c1be36389f8737c577ad87e1f57 upstream.

The kernel doesn't boot with both PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES=y and KASAN=y
options selected. With branch profiling enabled we end up calling
ftrace_likely_update() before kasan_early_init(). ftrace_likely_update() is
built with KASAN instrumentation, so calling it before kasan has been
initialized leads to crash.

Use DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING define to make sure that we don't call
ftrace_likely_update() from early code before kasan_early_init().

commit 44fee88cea43d3c2cac962e0439cb10a3cabff6d upstream.

Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him.

The ART to TSC relation is only set up for systems which use the refined
TSC calibration. Systems with known TSC frequency (available via CPUID 15)
are not using the refined calibration and therefor the ART to TSC relation
is never established.

Add the setup to the known frequency init path which skips ART
calibration. The init code needs to be duplicated as for systems which use
refined calibration the ART setup must be delayed until calibration has
been done.

The problem has been there since the ART support was introdduced, but only
detected now because Subhransu tested the first time on hardware which has
TSC frequency enumerated via CPUID 15.

Note for stable: The conditional has changed from TSC_RELIABLE to
     	 	 TSC_KNOWN_FREQUENCY.

commit 87a6b2975f0d340c75b7488d22d61d2f98fb8abf upstream.

Pavel Machek reported the following warning on x86-32:

  WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at f50cdf98 in swapper/2:0 has bad value   (null)

The warning is caused by the unwinder not realizing that it reached the
end of the stack, due to an unusual prologue which gcc sometimes
generates for aligned stacks.  The prologue is based on a gcc feature
called the Dynamic Realign Argument Pointer (DRAP).  It's almost always
enabled for aligned stacks when -maccumulate-outgoing-args isn't set.

This issue is similar to the one fixed by the following commit:

  8023e0e2a48d ("x86/unwind: Adjust last frame check for aligned function stacks")

... but that fix was specific to x86-64.

Make the fix more generic to cover x86-32 as well, and also ensure that
the return address referred to by the frame pointer is a copy of the
original return address.
