commit 9d2231c5d74e13b2a0546fee6737ee4446017903 upstream.

The functions copy_page_to_iter_pipe() and push_pipe() can both
allocate a new pipe_buffer, but the "flags" member initializer is
missing.

commit 87c01d57fa23de82fff593a7d070933d08755801 upstream.

hmm_range_fault() can be used instead of get_user_pages() for devices
which allow faulting however unlike get_user_pages() it will return an
error when used on a VM_MIXEDMAP range.

To make hmm_range_fault() more closely match get_user_pages() remove
this restriction.  This requires dealing with the !ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
case in hmm_vma_handle_pte().  Rather than replicating the logic of
vm_normal_page() call it directly and do a check for the zero pfn
similar to what get_user_pages() currently does.

Also add a test to hmm selftest to verify functionality.

[ Upstream commit 37dbb4c7c7442dbfc9b651e4ddd4afe30b26afc9 ]

It's possible that a parameterised test could end up with zero
parameters. At the moment, the test function will nevertheless be called
with NULL as the parameter. Instead, don't try to run the test code, and
just mark the test as SKIPped.

On 32-bit, the first entry might be at 0/NULL, but that's
strange and leads to issues, e.g. where we check "if (ret)".
Use a IOREMAP_BIAS/IOREMAP_MASK of 0x80000000UL to avoid
this. This then requires reducing the number of areas (via
MAX_AREAS), but we still have 128 areas, which is enough.

<title>siphash: use _unaligned version by default</title>

commit f7e5b9bfa6c8820407b64eabc1f29c9a87e8993d upstream.

On ARM v6 and later, we define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
because the ordinary load/store instructions (ldr, ldrh, ldrb) can
tolerate any misalignment of the memory address. However, load/store
double and load/store multiple instructions (ldrd, ldm) may still only
be used on memory addresses that are 32-bit aligned, and so we have to
use the CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS macro with care, or we
may end up with a severe performance hit due to alignment traps that
require fixups by the kernel. Testing shows that this currently happens
with clang-13 but not gcc-11. In theory, any compiler version can
produce this bug or other problems, as we are dealing with undefined
behavior in C99 even on architectures that support this in hardware,
see also https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100363.

Fortunately, the get_unaligned() accessors do the right thing: when
building for ARMv6 or later, the compiler will emit unaligned accesses
using the ordinary load/store instructions (but avoid the ones that
require 32-bit alignment). When building for older ARM, those accessors
will emit the appropriate sequence of ldrb/mov/orr instructions. And on
architectures that can truly tolerate any kind of misalignment, the
get_unaligned() accessors resolve to the leXX_to_cpup accessors that
operate on aligned addresses.

Since the compiler will in fact emit ldrd or ldm instructions when
building this code for ARM v6 or later, the solution is to use the
unaligned accessors unconditionally on architectures where this is
known to be fast. The _aligned version of the hash function is
however still needed to get the best performance on architectures
that cannot do any unaligned access in hardware.

This new version avoids the undefined behavior and should produce
the fastest hash on all architectures we support.

commit 5d5e4522a7f404d1a96fd6c703989d32a9c9568d upstream.

printk from NMI context relies on irq work being raised on the local CPU
to print to console. This can be a problem if the NMI was raised by a
lockup detector to print lockup stack and regs, because the CPU may not
enable irqs (because it is locked up).

Introduce printk_trigger_flush() that can be called another CPU to try
to get those messages to the console, call that where printk_safe_flush
was previously called.

<title>string: uninline memcpy_and_pad</title>

commit 5c4e0a21fae877a7ef89be6dcc6263ec672372b8 upstream.

When building m68k:allmodconfig, recent versions of gcc generate the
following error if the length of UTS_RELEASE is less than 8 bytes.

  In function 'memcpy_and_pad',
    inlined from 'nvmet_execute_disc_identify' at
      drivers/nvme/target/discovery.c:268:2: arch/m68k/include/asm/string.h:72:25: error:
	'__builtin_memcpy' reading 8 bytes from a region of size 7

Discussions around the problem suggest that this only happens if an
architecture does not provide strlen(), if -ffreestanding is provided as
compiler option, and if CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=n. All of this is the case
for m68k. The exact reasons are unknown, but seem to be related to the
ability of the compiler to evaluate the return value of strlen() and
the resulting execution flow in memcpy_and_pad(). It would be possible
to work around the problem by using sizeof(UTS_RELEASE) instead of
strlen(UTS_RELEASE), but that would only postpone the problem until the
function is called in a similar way. Uninline memcpy_and_pad() instead
to solve the problem for good.
