commit 71e7673dadfdae0605d4c1f66ecb4b045c79fe0f upstream.

Building an allmodconfig kernel fails horribly because of
endian mismatch. It turns out that the -mlittle-endian
switch was not honored at all as we were using the wrong
Kconfig symbol and failing to apply CPUFLAGS to the CFLAGS.
Finally, the linker flags did not get set right.

This addresses all three of those issues, which now lets
me build both big-endian and little-endian kernels for
testing.

Fixes: 206d3642d8ee ("arch/microblaze: add choice for endianness and update Makefile")

<title>arm64: __show_regs: Only resolve kernel symbols when running at EL1</title>

commit a06f818a70de21b4b3b4186816094208fc7accf9 upstream.

__show_regs pretty prints PC and LR by attempting to map them to kernel
function names to improve the utility of crash reports. Unfortunately,
this mapping is applied even when the pt_regs corresponds to user mode,
resulting in a KASLR oracle.

Avoid this issue by only looking up the function symbols when the register
state indicates that we're actually running at EL1.

commit be68a8aaf925aaf35574260bf820bb09d2f9e07f upstream.

Our field definitions for CTR_EL0 suffer from a number of problems:

  - The IDC and DIC fields are missing, which causes us to enable CTR
    trapping on CPUs with either of these returning non-zero values.

  - The ERG is FTR_LOWER_SAFE, whereas it should be treated like CWG as
    FTR_HIGHER_SAFE so that applications can use it to avoid false sharing.

  - [nit] A RES1 field is described as "RAO"

This patch updates the CTR_EL0 field definitions to fix these issues.

commit 1962682d2b2fbe6cfa995a85c53c069fadda473e upstream.

Stop printing a (ratelimited) kernel message for each instance of an
unimplemented syscall being called. Userland making an unimplemented
syscall is not necessarily misbehaviour and to be expected with a
current userland running on an older kernel. Also, the current message
looks scary to users but does not actually indicate a real problem nor
help them narrow down the cause. Just rely on sys_ni_syscall() to return
-ENOSYS.

<title>x86/oprofile: Fix bogus GCC-8 warning in nmi_setup()</title>

commit 85c615eb52222bc5fab6c7190d146bc59fac289e upstream.

GCC-8 shows a warning for the x86 oprofile code that copies per-CPU
data from CPU 0 to all other CPUs, which when building a non-SMP
kernel turns into a memcpy() with identical source and destination
pointers:

 arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c: In function 'mux_clone':
 arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c:285:2: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
   memcpy(per_cpu(cpu_msrs, cpu).multiplex,
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
          per_cpu(cpu_msrs, 0).multiplex,
          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
          sizeof(struct op_msr) * model-&gt;num_virt_counters);
          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c: In function 'nmi_setup':
 arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c:466:3: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
 arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c:470:3: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]

I have analyzed a number of such warnings now: some are valid and the
GCC warning is welcome. Others turned out to be false-positives, and
GCC was changed to not warn about those any more. This is a corner case
that is a false-positive but the GCC developers feel it's better to keep
warning about it.

In this case, it seems best to work around it by telling GCC
a little more clearly that this code path is never hit with
an IS_ENABLED() configuration check.

Cc:stable as we also want old kernels to build cleanly with GCC-8.

commit e84cf6aa501c58bf4bf451f1e425192ec090aed2 upstream.

When a irq vector is replaced, then the previous vector is normally
released when the first interrupt happens on the new vector. If the target
CPU of the previous vector is already offline when the new vector is
installed, then the previous vector is silently discarded, which leads to
accounting issues causing suspend failures and other problems.

Adjust the logic so that the previous vector is freed in the underlying
matrix allocator to ensure that the accounting stays correct.

Fixes: 69cde0004a4b ("x86/vector: Use matrix allocator for vector assignment")

commit e84cf6aa501c58bf4bf451f1e425192ec090aed2 upstream.

When a irq vector is replaced, then the previous vector is normally
released when the first interrupt happens on the new vector. If the target
CPU of the previous vector is already offline when the new vector is
installed, then the previous vector is silently discarded, which leads to
accounting issues causing suspend failures and other problems.

Adjust the logic so that the previous vector is freed in the underlying
matrix allocator to ensure that the accounting stays correct.

<title>MIPS: Drop spurious __unused in struct compat_flock</title>

commit 6ae1756faddefd7494353380ee546dd38c2f97eb upstream.

MIPS' struct compat_flock doesn't match the 32-bit struct flock, as it
has an extra short __unused before pad[4], which combined with alignment
increases the size to 40 bytes compared with struct flock's 36 bytes.

Since commit 8c6657cb50cb ("Switch flock copyin/copyout primitives to
copy_{from,to}_user()"), put_compat_flock() writes the full compat_flock
struct to userland, which results in corruption of the userland word
after the struct flock when running 32-bit userlands on 64-bit kernels.

This was observed to cause a bus error exception when starting Firefox
on Debian 8 (Jessie).

<title>xtensa: fix high memory/reserved memory collision</title>

commit 6ac5a11dc674bc5016ea716e8082fff61f524dc1 upstream.

Xtensa memory initialization code frees high memory pages without
checking whether they are in the reserved memory regions or not. That
results in invalid value of totalram_pages and duplicate page usage by
CMA and highmem. It produces a bunch of BUGs at startup looking like
this:

<title>MIPS: boot: Define __ASSEMBLY__ for its.S build</title>

commit 0f9da844d87796ac31b04e81ee95e155e9043132 upstream.

The MIPS %.its.S compiler command did not define __ASSEMBLY__, which meant
when compiler_types.h was added to kconfig.h, unexpected things appeared
(e.g. struct declarations) which should not have been present. As done in
the general %.S compiler command, __ASSEMBLY__ is now included here too.

The failure was:

    Error: arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.gz.its:201.1-2 syntax error
    FATAL ERROR: Unable to parse input tree
    /usr/bin/mkimage: Can't read arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.gz.itb.tmp: Invalid argument
    /usr/bin/mkimage Can't add hashes to FIT blob
