Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
"This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.

From the original description:

This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.

The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
to not requiring external patches.

There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:

- Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/

- Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.

The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
permitted.

The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:

lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}

Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.

This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
overriden by kernel configuration.

New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
include/linux/security.h for details.

The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

Stephen Rothwell noted that commit 9d1f8be5cf42 ("bpf: Restrict bpf
when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode") is missing a
Signed-off-by from its author. Matthew responded that he is providing
this under category (c) of the DCO"

mm,thp: stats for file backed THP

2019-09-24T22:54:11+00:00

In preparation for non-shmem THP, this patch adds a few stats and exposes
them in /proc/meminfo, /sys/bus/node/devices//meminfo, and
/proc//task//smaps.

This patch is mostly a rewrite of Kirill A.  Shutemov's earlier version:

mm: remove quicklist page table caches

2019-09-24T22:54:09+00:00

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".

A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].

I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com

This patch (of 3):

Remove page table allocator "quicklists".  These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.

The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore.  If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.

Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

Pull hmm updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "This is more cleanup and consolidation of the hmm APIs and the very
  strongly related mmu_notifier interfaces. Many places across the tree
  using these interfaces are touched in the process. Beyond that a
  cleanup to the page walker API and a few memremap related changes
  round out the series:

   - General improvement of hmm_range_fault() and related APIs, more
     documentation, bug fixes from testing, API simplification &
     consolidation, and unused API removal

   - Simplify the hmm related kconfigs to HMM_MIRROR and DEVICE_PRIVATE,
     and make them internal kconfig selects

   - Hoist a lot of code related to mmu notifier attachment out of
     drivers by using a refcount get/put attachment idiom and remove the
     convoluted mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release() and related APIs.

   - General API improvement for the migrate_vma API and revision of its
     only user in nouveau

   - Annotate mmu_notifiers with lockdep and sleeping region debugging

  Two series unrelated to HMM or mmu_notifiers came along due to
  dependencies:

   - Allow pagemap's memremap_pages family of APIs to work without
     providing a struct device

   - Make walk_page_range() and related use a constant structure for
     function pointers"

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "This is a bit late, partly due to me travelling, and partly due to a
  power outage knocking out some of my test systems *while* I was
  travelling.

   - Initial support for running on a system with an Ultravisor, which
     is software that runs below the hypervisor and protects guests
     against some attacks by the hypervisor.

   - Support for building the kernel to run as a "Secure Virtual
     Machine", ie. as a guest capable of running on a system with an
     Ultravisor.

   - Some changes to our DMA code on bare metal, to allow devices with
     medium sized DMA masks (> 32 && < 59 bits) to use more than 2GB of
     DMA space.

   - Support for firmware assisted crash dumps on bare metal (powernv).

   - Two series fixing bugs in and refactoring our PCI EEH code.

   - A large series refactoring our exception entry code to use gas
     macros, both to make it more readable and also enable some future
     optimisations.

  As well as many cleanups and other minor features & fixups.

pagewalk: separate function pointers from iterator data

2019-09-07T07:28:04+00:00

The mm_walk structure currently mixed data and code.  Split out the
operations vectors into a new mm_walk_ops structure, and while we are
changing the API also declare the mm_walk structure inside the
walk_page_range and walk_page_vma functions.

Based on patch from Linus Torvalds.
