[ Upstream commit b339752d054fb32863418452dff350a1086885b1 ]

When !NUMA, cpumask_of_node(@node) equals cpu_online_mask regardless of
@node.  The assumption seems that if !NUMA, there shouldn't be more than
one node and thus reporting cpu_online_mask regardless of @node is
correct.  However, that assumption was broken years ago to support
DISCONTIGMEM and whether a system has multiple nodes or not is
separately controlled by NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES.

This means that, on a system with !NUMA &amp;&amp; NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES,
cpumask_of_node() will report cpu_online_mask for all possible nodes,
indicating that the CPUs are associated with multiple nodes which is an
impossible configuration.

This bug has been around forever but doesn't look like it has caused any
noticeable symptoms.  However, it triggers a WARN recently added to
workqueue to verify NUMA affinity configuration.

Fix it by reporting empty cpumask on non-zero nodes if !NUMA.

[ Upstream commit e41f501d391265ff568f3e49d6128cc30856a36f ]

If CONFIG_KASAN is enabled and gcc is configured with
--disable-initfini-array and/or gold linker is used, gcc emits
.ctors/.dtors and .text.startup/.text.exit sections instead of
.init_array/.fini_array.  .dtors section is not explicitly accounted in
the linker script and messes vvar/percpu layout.

We want:
  ffffffff822bfd80 D _edata
  ffffffff822c0000 D __vvar_beginning_hack
  ffffffff822c0000 A __vvar_page
  ffffffff822c0080 0000000000000098 D vsyscall_gtod_data
  ffffffff822c1000 A __init_begin
  ffffffff822c1000 D init_per_cpu__irq_stack_union
  ffffffff822c1000 A __per_cpu_load
  ffffffff822d3000 D init_per_cpu__gdt_page

We got:
  ffffffff8279a600 D _edata
  ffffffff8279b000 A __vvar_page
  ffffffff8279c000 A __init_begin
  ffffffff8279c000 D init_per_cpu__irq_stack_union
  ffffffff8279c000 A __per_cpu_load
  ffffffff8279e000 D __vvar_beginning_hack
  ffffffff8279e080 0000000000000098 D vsyscall_gtod_data
  ffffffff827ae000 D init_per_cpu__gdt_page

This happens because __vvar_page and .vvar get different addresses in
arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S:

	. = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE);
	__vvar_page = .;

	.vvar : AT(ADDR(.vvar) - LOAD_OFFSET) {
		/* work around gold bug 13023 */
		__vvar_beginning_hack = .;

Discard .dtors/.fini_array/.text.exit, since we don't call dtors.
Merge .text.startup into init text.

<title>SIGNAL: Move generic copy_siginfo() to signal.h</title>

<id>175c648589e0b55645854a95895554b0887af9af</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit ca9eb49aa9562eaadf3cea071ec7018ad6800425 ]

The generic copy_siginfo() is currently defined in
asm-generic/siginfo.h, after including uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h which
defines the generic struct siginfo. However this makes it awkward for an
architecture to use it if it has to define its own struct siginfo (e.g.
MIPS and potentially IA64), since it means that asm-generic/siginfo.h
can only be included after defining the arch-specific siginfo, which may
be problematic if the arch-specific definition needs definitions from
uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h.

It is possible to work around this by first including
uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h to get the constants before defining the
arch-specific siginfo, and include asm-generic/siginfo.h after. However
uapi headers can't be included by other uapi headers, so that first
include has to be in an ifdef __kernel__, with the non __kernel__ case
including the non-UAPI header instead.

Instead of that mess, move the generic copy_siginfo() definition into
linux/signal.h, which allows an arch-specific uapi/asm/siginfo.h to
include asm-generic/siginfo.h and define the arch-specific siginfo, and
for the generic copy_siginfo() to see that arch-specific definition.

<title>bitops: Do not default to __clear_bit() for __clear_bit_unlock()</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f75d48644c56a31731d17fa693c8175328957e1d ]

__clear_bit_unlock() is a special little snowflake. While it carries the
non-atomic '__' prefix, it is specifically documented to pair with
test_and_set_bit() and therefore should be 'somewhat' atomic.

Therefore the generic implementation of __clear_bit_unlock() cannot use
the fully non-atomic __clear_bit() as a default.

If an arch is able to do better; is must provide an implementation of
__clear_bit_unlock() itself.

Specifically, this came up as a result of hackbench livelock'ing in
slab_lock() on ARC with SMP + SLUB + !LLSC.

The issue was incorrect pairing of atomic ops.

 slab_lock() -&gt; bit_spin_lock() -&gt; test_and_set_bit()
 slab_unlock() -&gt; __bit_spin_unlock() -&gt; __clear_bit()

The non serializing __clear_bit() was getting "lost"

 80543b8e:	ld_s       r2,[r13,0] &lt;--- (A) Finds PG_locked is set
 80543b90:	or         r3,r2,1    &lt;--- (B) other core unlocks right here
 80543b94:	st_s       r3,[r13,0] &lt;--- (C) sets PG_locked (overwrites unlock)

Fixes ARC STAR 9000817404 (and probably more).

 slab_unlock() -&gt; __bit_spin_unlock() -&gt; __clear_bit()

The non serializing __clear_bit() was getting "lost"

 80543b8e:	ld_s       r2,[r13,0] &lt;--- (A) Finds PG_locked is set
 80543b90:	or         r3,r2,1    &lt;--- (B) other core unlocks right here
 80543b94:	st_s       r3,[r13,0] &lt;--- (C) sets PG_locked (overwrites unlock)

Fixes ARC STAR 9000817404 (and probably more).

<title>cputime: Prevent 32bit overflow in time[val|spec]_to_cputime()</title>

[ Upstream commit 0f26922fe5dc5724b1adbbd54b21bad03590b4f3 ]

The datatype __kernel_time_t is u32 on 32bit platform, so its subject to
overflows in the timeval/timespec to cputime conversion.

Currently the following functions are affected:
1. setitimer()
2. timer_create/timer_settime()
3. sys_clock_nanosleep

This can happen on MIPS32 and ARM32 with "Full dynticks CPU time accounting"
enabled, which is required for CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL.

Enforce u64 conversion to prevent the overflow.

Fixes: 31c1fc818715 ("ARM: Kconfig: allow full nohz CPU accounting")

<title>sched/preempt: Fix cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq()</title>

commit fe32d3cd5e8eb0f82e459763374aa80797023403 upstream.

These functions check should_resched() before unlocking spinlock/bh-enable:
preempt_count always non-zero =&gt; should_resched() always returns false.
cond_resched_lock() worked iff spin_needbreak is set.

This patch adds argument "preempt_offset" to should_resched().

preempt_count offset constants for that:

  PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET  - offset after preempt_disable()
  PREEMPT_LOCK_OFFSET     - offset after spin_lock()
  SOFTIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET  - offset after local_bh_distable()
  SOFTIRQ_LOCK_OFFSET     - offset after spin_lock_bh()

Pull tty/serial updates from Greg KH:
 "Here's the big tty/serial driver update for 4.1-rc1.

  It was delayed for a bit due to some questions surrounding some of the
  console command line parsing changes that are in here.  There's still
  one tiny regression for people who were previously putting multiple
  console command lines and expecting them all to be ignored for some
  odd reason, but Peter is working on fixing that.  If not, I'll send a
  revert for the offending patch, but I have faith that Peter can
  address it.

  Other than the console work here, there's the usual serial driver
  updates and changes, and a buch of 8250 reworks to try to make that
  driver easier to maintain over time, and have it support more devices
  in the future.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while"
