Alexey Dobriyan 4fd0b46e89 slab, slub, slob: convert slab_flags_t to 32-bit
struct kmem_cache::flags is "unsigned long" which is unnecessary on
64-bit as no flags are defined in the higher bits.

Switch the field to 32-bit and save some space on x86_64 until such
flags appear:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/107 up/down: 0/-657 (-657)
	function                                     old     new   delta
	sysfs_slab_add                               720     719      -1

Alexey Dobriyan d50112edde slab, slub, slob: add slab_flags_t
Add sparse-checked slab_flags_t for struct kmem_cache::flags (SLAB_POISON,
etc).

SLAB is bloated temporarily by switching to "unsigned long", but only
temporarily.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Tetsuo Handa c96fc2d85f signal: make oom_flags a bool
Currently the size of "struct signal_struct"->oom_flags member is
sizeof(unsigned) bytes, but only one flag OOM_FLAG_ORIGIN which is
updated by current thread is defined.  We can convert OOM_FLAG_ORIGIN
into a bool, and reuse the saved bytes for updating from the OOM killer
and/or the OOM reaper thread.

By the way, do we care about a race window between run_store() and
swapoff() because it would be theoretically possible that two threads
sharing the "struct signal_struct" concurrently call respective
functions? If we care, we can make oom_flags an atomic_t.

Arnd Bergmann fbc416ff86 arm64: fix building without CONFIG_UID16
As reported by Michal Simek, building an ARM64 kernel with CONFIG_UID16
disabled currently fails because the system call table still needs to
reference the individual function entry points that are provided by
kernel/sys_ni.c in this case, and the declarations are hidden inside
of #ifdef CONFIG_UID16:

arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:57:8: error: 'sys_lchown16' undeclared here (not in a function)
 __SYSCALL(__NR_lchown, sys_lchown16)

I believe this problem only exists on ARM64, because older architectures
tend to not need declarations when their system call table is built
in assembly code, while newer architectures tend to not need UID16
support. ARM64 only uses these system calls for compatibility with
32-bit ARM binaries.

This changes the CONFIG_UID16 check into CONFIG_HAVE_UID16, which is
set unconditionally on ARM64 with CONFIG_COMPAT, so we see the
declarations whenever we need them, but otherwise the behavior is
unchanged.

Kirill A. Shutemov 720abae3d6 rcu: force alignment on struct callback_head/rcu_head
Make struct callback_head aligned to size of pointer.  On most
architectures it happens naturally due ABI requirements, but some
architectures (like CRIS) have weird ABI and we need to ask it explicitly.

The alignment is required to guarantee that bits 0 and 1 of @next will be
clear under normal conditions -- as long as we use call_rcu(),
call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu() to queue callback.

This guarantee is important for few reasons:
 - future call_rcu_lazy() will make use of lower bits in the pointer;
 - the structure shares storage spacer in struct page with @compound_head,
   which encode PageTail() in bit 0. The guarantee is needed to avoid
   false-positive PageTail().

False postive PageTail() caused crash on crisv32[1].  It happend due
misaligned task_struct->rcu, which was byte-aligned.

Paul E. McKenney ec90a194ae rcu: Create a synchronize_rcu_mult()
There have been several requests for a primitive that waits for
grace periods for several RCU flavors concurrently, so this
commit creates it.  This is a variadic macro, and you pass in
the call_rcu() functions of the flavors of RCU that you wish to
wait for.

Note that you cannot pass in call_srcu() for two reasons: (1) This
would result in a type mismatch and (2) You need to specify which
srcu_struct you want to use.  Handle this by creating a wrapper
function for your SRCU domain, for example:

	void call_srcu_mine(struct rcu_head *head, rcu_callback_t func)
	{
		call_srcu(&ss_mine, head, func);
	}

You can then do something like this:

	synchronize_rcu_mult(call_srcu_mine, call_rcu, call_rcu_sched);

Yinghai Lu 3a9ad0b4fd PCI: Add pci_bus_addr_t
David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f3d ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows
to fit in upstream windows") fails to boot on sparc/T5-8:

  pci 0000:06:00.0: reg 0x184: can't handle BAR above 4GB (bus address 0x110204000)

The problem is that sparc64 assumed that dma_addr_t only needed to hold DMA
addresses, i.e., bus addresses returned via the DMA API (dma_map_single(),
etc.), while the PCI core assumed dma_addr_t could hold *any* bus address,
including raw BAR values.  On sparc64, all DMA addresses fit in 32 bits, so
dma_addr_t is a 32-bit type.  However, BAR values can be 64 bits wide, so
they don't fit in a dma_addr_t.  d63e2e1f3d added new checking that
tripped over this mismatch.

Add pci_bus_addr_t, which is wide enough to hold any PCI bus address,
including both raw BAR values and DMA addresses.  This will be 64 bits
on 64-bit platforms and on platforms with a 64-bit dma_addr_t.  Then
dma_addr_t only needs to be wide enough to hold addresses from the DMA API.

Bjorn Helgaas 77f2ea2f8d DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction
The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it
really means "bus addresses."  Sometimes these are identical, but they may
be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation.
Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate.

Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use
dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity.

No functional change; documentation changes only.

David Rientjes e1e12d2f31 mm, oom: fix race when specifying a thread as the oom origin
test_set_oom_score_adj() and compare_swap_oom_score_adj() are used to
specify that current should be killed first if an oom condition occurs in
between the two calls.

The usage is

	short oom_score_adj = test_set_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX);
	...
	compare_swap_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX, oom_score_adj);

to store the thread's oom_score_adj, temporarily change it to the maximum
score possible, and then restore the old value if it is still the same.

This happens to still be racy, however, if the user writes
OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX to /proc/pid/oom_score_adj in between the two calls.
The compare_swap_oom_score_adj() will then incorrectly reset the old value
prior to the write of OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX.

To fix this, introduce a new oom_flags_t member in struct signal_struct
that will be used for per-thread oom killer flags.  KSM and swapoff can
now use a bit in this member to specify that threads should be killed
first in oom conditions without playing around with oom_score_adj.

This also allows the correct oom_score_adj to always be shown when reading
/proc/pid/oom_score.

Paul E. McKenney 990987511c rcu: Move rcu_head definition to types.h
Take a first step towards untangling Linux kernel header files by
placing the struct rcu_head definition into include/linux/types.h
and including include/linux/types.h in include/linux/rcupdate.h
where struct rcu_head used to be defined.  The actual inclusion point
for include/linux/types.h is with the rest of the #include directives
rather than at the point where struct rcu_head used to be defined,
as suggested by Mathieu Desnoyers.

Once this is in place, then header files that need only rcu_head
can include types.h rather than rcupdate.h.

We currently have a kernel internal type called aligned_u64 which aligns
__u64's on 8 bytes boundaries even on systems which would normally align

being kernel internal.

Chris Metcalf de5d9bf654 Move list types from <linux/list.h> to <linux/types.h>.
This allows a list_head (or hlist_head, etc.) to be used from places
that used to be impractical, in particular <asm/processor.h>, which
used to cause include file recursion: <linux/list.h> includes
<linux/prefetch.h>, which always includes <asm/processor.h> for the
prefetch macros, as well as <asm/system.h>, which often includes
<asm/processor.h> directly or indirectly.

This avoids a lot of painful workaround hackery on the tile
architecture, where we use a list_head in the thread_struct to chain
together tasks that are activated on a particular hardwall.

We create two constants, write them out to the stack, read them straight back
in and sign extend them. What a mess.

It turns out this bad code is a result of us defining atomic_t as a
volatile int.

We removed the volatile attribute from the powerpc atomic_t definition years
ago, but commit ea43546750 (atomic_t: unify all
arch definitions) added it back in.

To dig up an old quote from Linus:

> The fact is, volatile on data structures is a bug. It's a wart in the C
> language. It shouldn't be used.
>
> Volatile accesses in *code* can be ok, and if we have "atomic_read()"

And screw up it does :)

With the volatile removed, we see much more reasonable code generation:

c00000000051f5b8:       3b 60 00 01     li      r27,1
...
c00000000051f5c0:       3b 80 00 00     li      r28,0
...

is wrong; for one thing, it's a bad C (it's what uintptr_t is for; in general
we are not even promised that ptrdiff_t is large enough to hold a pointer,
just enough to hold a difference between two pointers within the same object).
For another, it confuses the fsck out of sparse.

Use unsigned long or uintptr_t instead.  There are several places misusing
ptrdiff_t; fixed.
