Memory hotplug is leading to hash page table calls, even on radix:
arch_add_memory
create_section_mapping

BUG_ON(!ppc_md.hpte_insert);
To fix, refactor {create,remove}_section_mapping() into hash__ and
radix__ variants. Leave the radix versions stubbed for now.

mlx4 core fixes
This patchset contains bug fixes from Jack to the mlx4 Core driver.
Patch 1 solves a race in the flow of CQ free.
Patch 2 moves some qp context flags update to the correct qp transition.
Patch 3 eliminates warnings from the path of SRQ_LIMIT that flood the message log,
and keeps them only in the path of SRQ_CATAS_ERROR.

When running SRIOV, warnings for SRQ LIMIT events flood the Hypervisor's
message log when (correct, normally operating) apps use SRQ LIMIT events
as a trigger to post WQEs to SRQs.
Add more information to the existing debug printout for SRQ_LIMIT, and
output the warning messages only for the SRQ CATAS ERROR event.

Save the qp context flags byte containing the flag disabling vlan stripping
in the RESET to INIT qp transition, rather than in the INIT to RTR
transition. Per the firmware spec, the flags in this byte are active
in the RESET to INIT transition.
As a result of saving the flags in the incorrect qp transition, when
switching dynamically from VGT to VST and back to VGT, the vlan
remained stripped (as is required for VST) and did not return to
not-stripped (as is required for VGT).

In function mlx4_cq_completion() and mlx4_cq_event(), the
radix_tree_lookup requires a rcu_read_lock.
This is mandatory: if another core frees the CQ, it could
run the radix_tree_node_rcu_free() call_rcu() callback while
its being used by the radix tree lookup function.
Additionally, in function mlx4_cq_event(), since we are adding
the rcu lock around the radix-tree lookup, we no longer need to take
the spinlock. Also, the synchronize_irq() call for the async event
eliminates the need for incrementing the cq reference count in
mlx4_cq_event().
Other changes:
1. In function mlx4_cq_free(), replace spin_lock_irq with spin_lock:
we no longer take this spinlock in the interrupt context.
The spinlock here, therefore, simply protects against different
threads simultaneously invoking mlx4_cq_free() for different cq's.
2. In function mlx4_cq_free(), we move the radix tree delete to before
the synchronize_irq() calls. This guarantees that we will not
access this cq during any subsequent interrupts, and therefore can
safely free the CQ after the synchronize_irq calls. The rcu_read_lock
in the interrupt handlers only needs to protect against corrupting the
radix tree; the interrupt handlers may access the cq outside the
rcu_read_lock due to the synchronize_irq calls which protect against
premature freeing of the cq.
3. In function mlx4_cq_event(), we change the mlx_warn message to mlx4_dbg.
4. We leave the cq reference count mechanism in place, because it is
still needed for the cq completion tasklet mechanism.

As found by Olof's build bot, we gain a harmless warning about a
potential uninitialized variable reference in mlx5:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_tc.c: In function 'parse_tc_fdb_actions':
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_tc.c:769:13: warning: 'out_dev' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_tc.c:811:21: note: 'out_dev' was declared here
This was introduced through the addition of an 'IS_ERR/PTR_ERR' pair
that gcc is unfortunately unable to completely figure out.
The problem being gcc cannot tell that if(IS_ERR()) in
mlx5e_route_lookup_ipv4() is equivalent to checking if(err) later,
so it assumes that 'out_dev' is used after the 'return PTR_ERR(rt)'.
The PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() case by comparison is fairly easy to detect
by gcc, so it can't get that wrong, so it no longer warns.
Hadar Hen Zion already attempted to fix the warning earlier by adding fake
initializations, but that ended up not fully addressing all warnings, so
I'm reverting it now that it is no longer needed.

Commit 7bd509e311 ("bpf: add prog_digest and expose it via
fdinfo/netlink") was recently discussed, partially due to
admittedly suboptimal name of "prog_digest" in combination
with sha1 hash usage, thus inevitably and rightfully concerns
about its security in terms of collision resistance were
raised with regards to use-cases.
The intended use cases are for debugging resp. introspection
only for providing a stable "tag" over the instruction sequence
that both kernel and user space can calculate independently.
It's not usable at all for making a security relevant decision.
So collisions where two different instruction sequences generate
the same tag can happen, but ideally at a rather low rate. The
"tag" will be dumped in hex and is short enough to introspect
in tracepoints or kallsyms output along with other data such
as stack trace, etc. Thus, this patch performs a rename into
prog_tag and truncates the tag to a short output (64 bits) to
make it obvious it's not collision-free.
Should in future a hash or facility be needed with a security
relevant focus, then we can think about requirements, constraints,
etc that would fit to that situation. For now, rework the exposed
parts for the current use cases as long as nothing has been
released yet. Tested on x86_64 and s390x.

Fix to probe on gcc generated functions on modules. Since
probing on a module is based on its symbol name, it should
be adjusted on actual symbols.
E.g. without this fix, perf probe shows probe definition
on non-exist symbol as below.
$ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -F in_range*
in_range.isra.12
$ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range
p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range+0
With this fix, perf probe correctly shows a probe on
gcc-generated symbol.
$ perf probe -m build-x86_64/net/netfilter/nf_nat.ko -D in_range
p:probe/in_range nf_nat:in_range.isra.12+0
This also fixes same problem on online module as below.

When the system is under memory pressure and a user tries to send,
the send fails due to low memory. However, the user application

With ip6gre we have a tunnel header which also makes the tunnel MTU
smaller. We need to reserve room for it. Previously we were using up
space reserved for the Tunnel Encapsulation Limit option
header (RFC 2473).
Also, after commit b05229f442 ("gre6: Cleanup GREv6 transmit path,
call common GRE functions") our contract with the caller has
changed. Now we check if the packet length exceeds the tunnel MTU after
the tunnel header has been pushed, unlike before.
This is reflected in the check where we look at the packet length minus
the size of the tunnel header, which is already accounted for in tunnel
MTU.

Fix to show correct locations for events on modules by relocating given
address instead of retrying after failure.
This happens when the module text size is big enough, bigger than
sh_addr, because the original code retries with given address + sh_addr
if it failed to find CU DIE at the given address.
Any address smaller than sh_addr always fails and it retries with the
correct address, but addresses bigger than sh_addr will get a CU DIE
which is on the given address (not adjusted by sh_addr).
In my environment(x86-64), the sh_addr of ".text" section is 0x10030.
Since i915 is a huge kernel module, we can see this issue as below.
$ grep "[Tt] .*\[i915\]" /proc/kallsyms | sort | head -n1
ffffffffc0270000 t i915_switcheroo_can_switch [i915]
ffffffffc0270000 + 0x10030 = ffffffffc0280030, so we'll check
symbols cross this boundary.
$ grep "[Tt] .*\[i915\]" /proc/kallsyms | grep -B1 ^ffffffffc028\
| head -n 2
ffffffffc027ff80 t haswell_init_clock_gating [i915]
ffffffffc0280110 t valleyview_init_clock_gating [i915]
So setup probes on both function and see what happen.
$ sudo ./perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating \
-a valleyview_init_clock_gating
Added new events:
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1
$ sudo ./perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on i915_vga_set_decode:4@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915)
As you can see, haswell_init_clock_gating is correctly shown,
but valleyview_init_clock_gating is not.
With this patch, both events are shown correctly.
$ sudo ./perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating@gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c in i915)
Committer notes:
In my case:
# perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating -a valleyview_init_clock_gating
Added new events:
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating -aR sleep 1
# perf probe -l
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on i915_getparam+432@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on __i915_printk+240@gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c in i915)
#
# readelf -SW /lib/modules/4.9.0+/build/vmlinux | egrep -w '.text|Name'

[ 1] .text PROGBITS ffffffff81000000 200000 822fd3 00 AX 0 0 4096
#
So both are b0rked, now with the fix:
# perf probe -m i915 -a haswell_init_clock_gating -a valleyview_init_clock_gating
Added new events:
probe:haswell_init_clock_gating (on haswell_init_clock_gating in i915)
probe:valleyview_init_clock_gating (on valleyview_init_clock_gating in i915)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

# perf probe -l

igmp6_group_dropped() in ipv6_mc_destroy_dev() since we have called it in

During interface opening MAC address stored in netdev->dev_addr is
programmed in the HW with exception of BE3 VFs where the initial
MAC is programmed by parent PF. This is OK when MAC address is not
changed when an interfaces is down. In this case the requested MAC is
stored to netdev->dev_addr and later is stored into HW during opening.
But this is not done for all BE3 VFs so the NIC HW does not know
anything about this change and all traffic is filtered.
This is the case of bonding if fail_over_mac == 0 where the MACs of
the slaves are changed while they are down.
The be2net behavior is too restrictive because if a BE3 VF has
the FILTMGMT privilege then it is able to modify its MAC without
any restriction.
To solve the described problem the driver should take care about these
privileged BE3 VFs so the MAC is programmed during opening. And by
contrast unpriviled BE3 VFs should not be allowed to change its MAC
in any case.

The #warning was present 10 years ago when the driver first got merged.
As the platform is rather obsolete by now, it seems very unlikely that
the warning will cause anyone to fix the code properly.
kernelci.org reports the warning for every build in the meantime, so
I think it's better to just turn it into a code comment to reduce
noise.

Regressions for not being able to detect an eMMC HS DDR mode card has been
reported for the sdhci-esdhc-imx driver, but potentially other sdhci
variants may suffer from the similar problem.
The commit e173f8911f ("mmc: core: Update CMD13 polling policy when
switch to HS DDR mode"), is causing the problem. It seems that change moved
one step to far, regarding changing the host's timing before polling for a
busy card.
To fix this, let's move back to the behaviour when the host's timing is
updated after the polling, but before the switch status is fetched and
validated.
In cases when polling with CMD13, we keep validating the switch status at
each attempt. However, to align with the other card busy detections
mechanism, let's fetch and validate the switch status also after the host's
timing is updated.

Mathieu reported that the LTTNG modules are broken as of 4.10-rc1 due to
the removal of the cpu hotplug notifiers.
Usually I don't care much about out of tree modules, but LTTNG is widely
used in distros. There are two ways to solve that:
1) Reserve a hotplug state for LTTNG
2) Add a dynamic range for the prepare states.
While #1 is the simplest solution, #2 is the proper one as we can convert
in tree users, which do not care about ordering, to the dynamic range as
well.
Add a dynamic range which allows LTTNG to request states in the prepare
stage.

USBTrdTim must be programmed to 0x5 when phy has a UTMI+ 16-bit wide
interface or 0x9 when it has a 8-bit wide interface.
GUSBCFG reset value (Value After Reset: 0x1400) sets USBTrdTim to 0x5.
In case of 8-bit UTMI+, without clearing GUSBCFG.USBTRDTIM mask, USBTrdTim
results in 0xD (0x5 | 0x9).
That's why we need to clear GUSBCFG.USBTRDTIM mask before setting USBTrdTim

Pull an urgent RCU fix from Paul E. McKenney:
"This series contains a pair of commits that permit RCU synchronous grace
periods (synchronize_rcu() and friends) to work correctly throughout boot.
This eliminates the current "dead time" starting when the scheduler spawns
its first taks and ending when the last of RCU's kthreads is spawned
(this last happens during early_initcall() time). Although RCU's
synchronous grace periods have long been documented as not working
during this time, prior to 4.9, the expedited grace periods worked by
accident, and some ACPI code came to rely on this unintentional behavior.
(Note that this unintentional behavior was -not- reliable. For example,
failures from ACPI could occur on !SMP systems and on systems booting
with the rcu_normal kernel boot parameter.)
Either way, there is a bug that needs fixing, and the 4.9 switch of RCU's
expedited grace periods to workqueues could be considered to have caused
a regression. This series therefore makes RCU's expedited grace periods
operate correctly throughout the boot process. This has been demonstrated
to fix the problems ACPI was encountering, and has the added longer-term
benefit of simplifying RCU's behavior."

We have quite a lot of code that depends on the order of the
__ctl_load inline assemby and subsequent memory accesses, like
e.g. disabling lowcore protection and the writing to lowcore.
Since the __ctl_load macro does not have memory barrier semantics, nor
any other dependencies the compiler is, theoretically, free to shuffle
code around. Or in other words: storing to lowcore could happen before
lowcore protection is disabled.
In order to avoid this class of potential bugs simply add a full
memory barrier to the __ctl_load macro.

The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases
during bootup. In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running
with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period.
In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has
not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods,
workqueues are not yet running. During this time, any attempt to do
a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly,
depending). In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and
everything works normally.
This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some
synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase.
This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon
as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit
8b355e3bc1 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue").
Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject
to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods
to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs
parameter). The callchain from the failure case is as follows:
early_amd_iommu_init()
|-> acpi_put_table(ivrs_base);
|-> acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc);
|-> acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc);
|-> acpi_tb_release_table(...)
|-> acpi_os_unmap_memory
|-> acpi_os_unmap_iomem
|-> acpi_os_map_cleanup
|-> synchronize_rcu_expedited
The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y,
which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were
initialized, which did not go well.
This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods
to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a
fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put
forward post-merge-window in v4.10.
This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting()
function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited
path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task
to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase.
Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named
rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used.
Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals
(or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned
through core_initcall() time.
