<id>7e1c4e27928e5f87b9b1eaf06dc31773b2f1e7f1</id>
<content type='text'>
When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.

Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise.  Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.

Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.

For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g.  like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.

The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

Pull Devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
 "A bit bigger than normal as I've been busy this cycle.

  There's a few things with dependencies and a few things subsystem
  maintainers didn't pick up, so I'm taking them thru my tree.

  The fixes from Johan didn't get into linux-next, but they've been
  waiting for some time now and they are what's left of what subsystem
  maintainers didn't pick up.

  Summary:

   - Sync dtc with upstream version v1.4.7-14-gc86da84d30e4

   - Work to get rid of direct accesses to struct device_node name and
     type pointers in preparation for removing them. New helpers for
     parsing DT cpu nodes and conversions to use the helpers. printk
     conversions to %pOFn for printing DT node names. Most went thru
     subystem trees, so this is the remainder.

   - Fixes to DT child node lookups to actually be restricted to child
     nodes instead of treewide.

   - Refactoring of dtb targets out of arch code. This makes the support
     more uniform and enables building all dtbs on c6x, microblaze, and
     powerpc.

   - Various DT binding updates for Renesas r8a7744 SoC

   - Vendor prefixes for Facebook, OLPC

   - Restructuring of some ARM binding docs moving some peripheral
     bindings out of board/SoC binding files

   - New "secure-chosen" binding for secure world settings on ARM

Pull Devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
 "A bit bigger than normal as I've been busy this cycle.

  There's a few things with dependencies and a few things subsystem
  maintainers didn't pick up, so I'm taking them thru my tree.

  The fixes from Johan didn't get into linux-next, but they've been
  waiting for some time now and they are what's left of what subsystem
  maintainers didn't pick up.

  Summary:

   - Sync dtc with upstream version v1.4.7-14-gc86da84d30e4

   - Work to get rid of direct accesses to struct device_node name and
     type pointers in preparation for removing them. New helpers for
     parsing DT cpu nodes and conversions to use the helpers. printk
     conversions to %pOFn for printing DT node names. Most went thru
     subystem trees, so this is the remainder.

   - Fixes to DT child node lookups to actually be restricted to child
     nodes instead of treewide.

   - Refactoring of dtb targets out of arch code. This makes the support
     more uniform and enables building all dtbs on c6x, microblaze, and
     powerpc.

   - Various DT binding updates for Renesas r8a7744 SoC

   - Vendor prefixes for Facebook, OLPC

   - Restructuring of some ARM binding docs moving some peripheral
     bindings out of board/SoC binding files

   - New "secure-chosen" binding for secure world settings on ARM

   - Dual licensing of 2 DT IRQ binding headers"

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
 "I have been slowly sorting out siginfo and this is the culmination of
  that work.

  The primary result is in several ways the signal infrastructure has
  been made less error prone. The code has been updated so that manually
  specifying SEND_SIG_FORCED is never necessary. The conversion to the
  new siginfo sending functions is now complete, which makes it
  difficult to send a signal without filling in the proper siginfo
  fields.

  At the tail end of the patchset comes the optimization of decreasing
  the size of struct siginfo in the kernel from 128 bytes to about 48
  bytes on 64bit. The fundamental observation that enables this is by
  definition none of the known ways to use struct siginfo uses the extra
  bytes.

  This comes at the cost of a small user space observable difference.
  For the rare case of siginfo being injected into the kernel only what
  can be copied into kernel_siginfo is delivered to the destination, the
  rest of the bytes are set to 0. For cases where the signal and the
  si_code are known this is safe, because we know those bytes are not
  used. For cases where the signal and si_code combination is unknown
  the bits that won't fit into struct kernel_siginfo are tested to
  verify they are zero, and the send fails if they are not.

  I made an extensive search through userspace code and I could not find
  anything that would break because of the above change. If it turns out
  I did break something it will take just the revert of a single change
  to restore kernel_siginfo to the same size as userspace siginfo.

  Testing did reveal dependencies on preferring the signo passed to
  sigqueueinfo over si-&gt;signo, so bit the bullet and added the
  complexity necessary to handle that case.

  Testing also revealed bad things can happen if a negative signal
  number is passed into the system calls. Something no sane application
  will do but something a malicious program or a fuzzer might do. So I
  have fixed the code that performs the bounds checks to ensure negative
  signal numbers are handled"

Enabling CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y causes linker errors on ARM:

  `.text.exit' referenced in section `.ARM.exidx.text.exit':
  defined in discarded section `.text.exit'

  `.text.exit' referenced in section `.fini_array.00100':
  defined in discarded section `.text.exit'

And related errors on NDS32:

  `.text.exit' referenced in section `.dtors.65435':
  defined in discarded section `.text.exit'

The gcov compiler flags cause certain compiler versions to generate
additional destructor-related sections that are not yet handled by the
linker script, resulting in references between discarded and
non-discarded sections.

Since destructors are not used in the Linux kernel, fix this by
discarding these additional sections.

non-discarded sections.

Since destructors are not used in the Linux kernel, fix this by
discarding these additional sections.
