Vhost dirty page logging API is designed to sync through GPA. But we
try to log GIOVA when device IOTLB is enabled. This is wrong and may
lead to missing data after migration.

To solve this issue, when logging with device IOTLB enabled, we will:

1) reuse the device IOTLB translation result of GIOVA-&gt;HVA mapping to
   get HVA, for writable descriptor, get HVA through iovec. For used
   ring update, translate its GIOVA to HVA
2) traverse the GPA-&gt;HVA mapping to get the possible GPA and log
   through GPA. Pay attention this reverse mapping is not guaranteed
   to be unique, so we should log each possible GPA in this case.

This fix the failure of scp to guest during migration. In -next, we
will probably support passing GIOVA-&gt;GPA instead of GIOVA-&gt;HVA.

<title>vhost/vsock: fix vhost vsock cid hashing inconsistent</title>

<id>7fbe078c37aba3088359c9256c1a1d0c3e39ee81</id>
<content type='text'>
The vsock core only supports 32bit CID, but the Virtio-vsock spec define
CID (dst_cid and src_cid) as u64 and the upper 32bits is reserved as
zero. This inconsistency causes one bug in vhost vsock driver. The
scenarios is:

  0. A hash table (vhost_vsock_hash) is used to map an CID to a vsock
  object. And hash_min() is used to compute the hash key. hash_min() is
  defined as:
  (sizeof(val) &lt;= 4 ? hash_32(val, bits) : hash_long(val, bits)).
  That means the hash algorithm has dependency on the size of macro
  argument 'val'.
  0. In function vhost_vsock_set_cid(), a 64bit CID is passed to
  hash_min() to compute the hash key when inserting a vsock object into
  the hash table.
  0. In function vhost_vsock_get(), a 32bit CID is passed to hash_min()
  to compute the hash key when looking up a vsock for an CID.

Because the different size of the CID, hash_min() returns different hash
key, thus fails to look up the vsock object for an CID.

To fix this bug, we keep CID as u64 in the IOCTLs and virtio message
headers, but explicitly convert u64 to u32 when deal with the hash table
and vsock core.

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "This is mostly update of the usual drivers: smarpqi, lpfc, qedi,
  megaraid_sas, libsas, zfcp, mpt3sas, hisi_sas.

  Additionally, we have a pile of annotation, unused variable and minor
  updates.

  The big API change is the updates for Christoph's DMA rework which
  include removing the DISABLE_CLUSTERING flag.

  And finally there are a couple of target tree updates"

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) New ipset extensions for matching on destination MAC addresses, from
    Stefano Brivio.

 2) Add ipv4 ttl and tos, plus ipv6 flow label and hop limit offloads to
    nfp driver. From Stefano Brivio.

 3) Implement GRO for plain UDP sockets, from Paolo Abeni.

 4) Lots of work from Michał Mirosław to eliminate the VLAN_TAG_PRESENT
    bit so that we could support the entire vlan_tci value.

 5) Rework the IPSEC policy lookups to better optimize more usecases,
    from Florian Westphal.

 6) Infrastructure changes eliminating direct manipulation of SKB lists
    wherever possible, and to always use the appropriate SKB list
    helpers. This work is still ongoing...

 7) Lots of PHY driver and state machine improvements and
    simplifications, from Heiner Kallweit.

 8) Various TSO deferral refinements, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Add ntuple filter support to aquantia driver, from Dmitry Bogdanov.

10) Batch dropping of XDP packets in tuntap, from Jason Wang.

11) Lots of cleanups and improvements to the r8169 driver from Heiner
    Kallweit, including support for -&gt;xmit_more. This driver has been
    getting some much needed love since he started working on it.

12) Lots of new forwarding selftests from Petr Machata.

13) Enable VXLAN learning in mlxsw driver, from Ido Schimmel.

14) Packed ring support for virtio, from Tiwei Bie.

15) Add new Aquantia AQtion USB driver, from Dmitry Bezrukov.

16) Add XDP support to dpaa2-eth driver, from Ioana Ciocoi Radulescu.

17) Implement coalescing on TCP backlog queue, from Eric Dumazet.

18) Implement carrier change in tun driver, from Nicolas Dichtel.

19) Support msg_zerocopy in UDP, from Willem de Bruijn.

20) Significantly improve garbage collection of neighbor objects when
    the table has many PERMANENT entries, from David Ahern.

21) Remove egdev usage from nfp and mlx5, and remove the facility
    completely from the tree as it no longer has any users. From Oz
    Shlomo and others.

22) Add a NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR so that drivers can veto the change and
    therefore abort the operation before the commit phase (which is the
    NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event). From Petr Machata.

23) Add indirect call wrappers to avoid retpoline overhead, and use them
    in the GRO code paths. From Paolo Abeni.

24) Add support for netlink FDB get operations, from Roopa Prabhu.

25) Support bloom filter in mlxsw driver, from Nir Dotan.

26) Add SKB extension infrastructure. This consolidates the handling of
    the auxiliary SKB data used by IPSEC and bridge netfilter, and is
    designed to support the needs to MPTCP which could be integrated in
    the future.

27) Lots of XDP TX optimizations in mlx5 from Tariq Toukan.
