KVM: export and iif KVM is supported

2019-03-28T16:27:42+00:00

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of 
and .

According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:

 [1] Both  and  are exported

    alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86

 [2]  is exported, but  is not

    arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
    parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa

 [3] Neither  nor  is exported

    csky, nds32, riscv

This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.

Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported  to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.

We have two ways to make this consistent:

 [A] export both  and  for all
     architectures, irrespective of the KVM support

 [B] Match the header export of  and 
     to the KVM support

My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].

So, this commit goes with [B].

For most architectures,  was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.

After this commit, there will be two groups:

 [1] Both  and  are exported

    arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86

 [2] Neither  nor  is exported

    alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,
    nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensa

kbuild: force all architectures except um to include mandatory-y

2019-03-17T03:56:32+00:00

Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.

um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

kbuild: warn redundant generic-y

2019-03-17T03:56:31+00:00

The generic-y is redundant under the following condition:

 - arch has its own implementation

 - the same header is added to generated-y

 - the same header is added to mandatory-y

If a redundant generic-y is found, the warning like follows is displayed:

  scripts/Makefile.asm-generic:20: redundant generic-y found in arch/arm/include/asm/Kbuild: timex.h

I fixed up arch Kbuild files found by this.

Merge tag 'asm-generic-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic

2019-03-06T17:18:43+00:00

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Only a few small changes this time:

   - Michael S. Tsirkin cleans up linux/mman.h

   - Mike Rapoport found a typo

  I had originally merged another cleanup series for I/O accessors from
  Hugo Lefeuvre as well, but dropped it after the discussion of the
  barrier semantics and some conflicts. I expect this series to get
  merged for a later release though"

* tag 'asm-generic-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic:
  asm-generic/page.h: fix typo in #error text requiring a real asm/page.h
  arch: move common mmap flags to linux/mman.h
  drm: tweak header name
  x86/mpx: tweak header name

arch: move common mmap flags to linux/mman.h

2019-02-18T16:49:30+00:00

Now that we have 3 mmap flags shared by all architectures,
let's move them into the common header.

This will help discourage future architectures from duplicating code.

arch: Use asm-generic/socket.h when possible

2019-02-03T19:17:30+00:00

Many architectures maintain an arch specific copy of the
file even though there are no differences with the asm-generic
one. Allow these architectures to use the generic one instead.

net: introduce SO_BINDTOIFINDEX sockopt

2019-01-17T22:55:51+00:00

This introduces a new generic SOL_SOCKET-level socket option called
SO_BINDTOIFINDEX. It behaves similar to SO_BINDTODEVICE, but takes a
network interface index as argument, rather than the network interface
name.

User-space often refers to network-interfaces via their index, but has
to temporarily resolve it to a name for a call into SO_BINDTODEVICE.
This might pose problems when the network-device is renamed
asynchronously by other parts of the system. When this happens, the
SO_BINDTODEVICE might either fail, or worse, it might bind to the wrong
device.

In most cases user-space only ever operates on devices which they
either manage themselves, or otherwise have a guarantee that the device
name will not change (e.g., devices that are UP cannot be renamed).
However, particularly in libraries this guarantee is non-obvious and it
would be nice if that race-condition would simply not exist. It would
make it easier for those libraries to operate even in situations where
the device-name might change under the hood.

A real use-case that we recently hit is trying to start the network
stack early in the initrd but make it survive into the real system.
Existing distributions rename network-interfaces during the transition
from initrd into the real system. This, obviously, cannot affect
devices that are up and running (unless you also consider moving them
between network-namespaces). However, the network manager now has to
make sure its management engine for dormant devices will not run in
parallel to these renames. Particularly, when you offload operations
like DHCP into separate processes, these might setup their sockets
early, and thus have to resolve the device-name possibly running into
this race-condition.

By avoiding a call to resolve the device-name, we no longer depend on
the name and can run network setup of dormant devices in parallel to
the transition off the initrd. The SO_BINDTOIFINDEX ioctl plugs this
race.

arch: remove redundant UAPI generic-y defines

2019-01-06T01:22:15+00:00

Now that Kbuild automatically creates asm-generic wrappers for missing
mandatory headers, it is redundant to list the same headers in
generic-y and mandatory-y.

arch: remove stale comments "UAPI Header export list"

2019-01-06T00:46:51+00:00

These comments are leftovers of commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all
headers under uapi directories").

Prior to that commit, exported headers must be explicitly added to
header-y. Now, all headers under the uapi/ directories are exported.
