a9a08845e9 vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

1db0e0f9dd kasan: unify code between kasan_slab_free() and kasan_poison_kfree()
Both of these functions deal with freeing of slab objects.
However, kasan_poison_kfree() mishandles SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
(must also not poison such objects) and does not detect double-frees.

Unify code between these functions.

This solves both of the problems and allows to add more common code
(e.g. detection of invalid frees).

6860f6340c kasan: detect invalid frees for large mempool objects
Detect frees of pointers into middle of mempool objects.

I did a one-off test, but it turned out to be very tricky, so I reverted
it.  First, mempool does not call kasan_poison_kfree() unless allocation
function fails.  I stubbed an allocation function to fail on second and
subsequent allocations.  But then mempool stopped to call
kasan_poison_kfree() at all, because it does it only when allocation
function is mempool_kmalloc().  We could support this special failing
test allocation function in mempool, but it also can't live with kasan
tests, because these are in a module.

47adccce3e kasan: detect invalid frees for large objects
Patch series "kasan: detect invalid frees".

KASAN detects double-frees, but does not detect invalid-frees (when a
pointer into a middle of heap object is passed to free).  We recently had
a very unpleasant case in crypto code which freed an inner object inside
of a heap allocation.  This left unnoticed during free, but totally
corrupted heap and later lead to a bunch of random crashes all over kernel
code.

Detect invalid frees.

This patch (of 5):

Detect frees of pointers into middle of large heap objects.

I dropped const from kasan_kfree_large() because it starts propagating
through a bunch of functions in kasan_report.c, slab/slub nearest_obj(),
all of their local variables, fixup_red_left(), etc.

d321599cf6 kasan: add functions for unpoisoning stack variables
As a code-size optimization, LLVM builds since r279383 may bulk-manipulate
the shadow region when (un)poisoning large memory blocks.  This requires
new callbacks that simply do an uninstrumented memset().

This fixes linking the Clang-built kernel when using KASAN.

342061ee4e kasan: support alloca() poisoning
clang's AddressSanitizer implementation adds redzones on either side of
alloca()ed buffers.  These redzones are 32-byte aligned and at least 32
bytes long.

__asan_alloca_poison() is passed the size and address of the allocated
buffer, *excluding* the redzones on either side.  The left redzone will
always be to the immediate left of this buffer; but AddressSanitizer may
need to add padding between the end of the buffer and the right redzone.
If there are any 8-byte chunks inside this padding, we should poison
those too.

__asan_allocas_unpoison() is just passed the top and bottom of the dynamic
stack area, so unpoisoning is simpler.

 - Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the
   NFIT in ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform
   supports flushing of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected
   power loss events.

 - Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and
   better support future future PCI P2P uses.

 - Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has
   become out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL
   spec, and instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by
   the two other IOCTL families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}.

 - Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in
   version 1.6 of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware
   download and simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status.

617aebe6a9 Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull hardened usercopy whitelisting from Kees Cook:
 "Currently, hardened usercopy performs dynamic bounds checking on slab
  cache objects. This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory
  available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs.

  To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates
  a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for
  copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access
  control.

  Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no
  whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to
  userspace via dynamic copy operations. (Note, an implicit form of
  whitelisting is the use of constant sizes in usercopy operations and
  get_user()/put_user(); these bypass all hardened usercopy checks since
  these sizes cannot change at runtime.)

  This new check is WARN-by-default, so any mistakes can be found over
  the next several releases without breaking anyone's system.

  The series has roughly the following sections:
   - remove %p and improve reporting with offset
   - prepare infrastructure and whitelist kmalloc
   - update VFS subsystem with whitelists
   - update SCSI subsystem with whitelists
   - update network subsystem with whitelists
   - update process memory with whitelists

edbe69ef2c Revert "defer call to mem_cgroup_sk_alloc()"
This patch effectively reverts commit 9f1c2674b3 ("net: memcontrol:
defer call to mem_cgroup_sk_alloc()").

Moving mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() to the inet_csk_accept() completely breaks
memcg socket memory accounting, as packets received before memcg
pointer initialization are not accounted and are causing refcounting
underflow on socket release.

Actually the free-after-use problem was fixed by
commit c0576e3975 ("net: call cgroup_sk_alloc() earlier in
sk_clone_lock()") for the cgroup pointer.

So, let's revert it and call mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() just before
cgroup_sk_alloc(). This is safe, as we hold a reference to the socket
we're cloning, and it holds a reference to the memcg.

Also, let's drop BUG_ON(mem_cgroup_is_root()) check from
mem_cgroup_sk_alloc(). I see no reasons why bumping the root
memcg counter is a good reason to panic, and there are no realistic
ways to hit it.

e02a9f048e mm/swap.c: make functions and their kernel-doc agree
Fix some basic kernel-doc notation in mm/swap.c:

 - for function lru_cache_add_anon(), make its kernel-doc function name
   match its function name and change colon to hyphen following the
   function name

 - for function pagevec_lookup_entries(), change the function parameter
   name from nr_pages to nr_entries since that is more descriptive of
   what the parameter actually is and then it matches the kernel-doc
   comments also

Fix function kernel-doc to match the change in commit 67fd707f46:

 - drop the kernel-doc notation for @nr_pages from
   pagevec_lookup_range() and correct the function description for that
   change

9bb5a391f9 mm, memory_hotplug: fix memmap initialization
Bharata has noticed that onlining a newly added memory doesn't increase
the total memory, pointing to commit f7f99100d8 ("mm: stop zeroing
memory during allocation in vmemmap") as a culprit.  This commit has
changed the way how the memory for memmaps is initialized and moves it
from the allocation time to the initialization time.  This works
properly for the early memmap init path.

It doesn't work for the memory hotplug though because we need to mark
page as reserved when the sparsemem section is created and later
initialize it completely during onlining.  memmap_init_zone is called in
the early stage of onlining.  With the current code it calls
__init_single_page and as such it clears up the whole stage and
therefore online_pages_range skips those pages.

Fix this by skipping mm_zero_struct_page in __init_single_page for
memory hotplug path.  This is quite uggly but unifying both early init
and memory hotplug init paths is a large project.  Make sure we plug the
regression at least.

da391d640c mm: correct comments regarding do_fault_around()
There are multiple comments surrounding do_fault_around that memtion
fault_around_pages() and fault_around_mask(), two routines that do not
exist.  These comments should be reworded to reference
fault_around_bytes, the value which is used to determine how much
do_fault_around() will attempt to read when processing a fault.

These comments should have been updated when fault_around_pages() and
fault_around_mask() were removed in commit aecd6f4426 ("mm: close race
between do_fault_around() and fault_around_bytes_set()").

Fixes: aecd6f4426 ("mm: close race between do_fault_around() and fault_around_bytes_set()")

859d4adc34 mm: numa: do not trap faults on shared data section pages.
Workloads consisting of a large number of processes running the same
program with a very large shared data segment may experience performance
problems when numa balancing attempts to migrate the shared cow pages.
This manifests itself with many processes or tasks in
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state waiting for the shared pages to be migrated.

The program listed below simulates the conditions with these results
when run with 288 processes on a 144 core/8 socket machine.

Complex production environments show less variability and fewer poorly
performing outliers accompanied with a smaller number of processes
waiting on NUMA page migration with this patch applied.  In some cases,
%iowait drops from 16%-26% to 0.

This patch changes change_pte_range() to skip shared copy-on-write pages
when called from change_prot_numa().

NOTE: change_prot_numa() is nominally called from task_numa_work() and
queue_pages_test_walk().  task_numa_work() is the auto NUMA balancing
path, and queue_pages_test_walk() is part of explicit NUMA policy
management.  However, queue_pages_test_walk() only calls
change_prot_numa() when MPOL_MF_LAZY is specified and currently that is
not allowed, so change_prot_numa() is only called from auto NUMA
balancing.

In the case of explicit NUMA policy management, shared pages are not
migrated unless MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is specified, and MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL
depends on CAP_SYS_NICE.  Currently, there is no way to pass information
about MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL to change_pte_range.  This will have to be fixed
if MPOL_MF_LAZY is enabled and MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is to be honored in lazy
migration mode.

task_numa_work() skips the read-only VMAs of programs and shared
libraries.
