Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Thomas WeißschuhandThomas Gleixner 1184674d6e powerpc: Split systemcfg data out of vdso data page
The systemcfg data only has minimal overlap with the vdso data.
Splitting the two avoids mapping the implementation-defined vdso data
into /proc/ppc64/systemcfg.
It is also a preparation for the standardization of vdso data storage.

The only field actually used by both systemcfg and vdso is
tb_ticks_per_sec and it is only changed once during time_init().
Initialize it in both structures there.

Christophe LeroyandMichael Ellerman c39b1dcf05 powerpc/vdso: Add a page for non-time data
The page containing VDSO time data is swapped with the one containing
TIME namespace data when a process uses a non-root time namespace.
For other data like powerpc specific data and RNG data, it means
tracking whether time namespace is the root one or not to know which
page to use.

Simplify the logic behind by moving time data out of first data page
so that the first data page which contains everything else always
remains the first page. Time data is in the second or third page
depending on selected time namespace.

While we are playing with get_datapage macro, directly take into
account the data offset inside the macro instead of adding that offset
afterwards.

Michael EllermanandAndrew Morton edb4a8bffd powerpc/vdso: refactor error handling
Linus noticed that the error handling in __arch_setup_additional_pages()
fails to clear the mm VDSO pointer if _install_special_mapping() fails. 
In practice there should be no actual bug, because if there's an error the
VDSO pointer is cleared later in arch_setup_additional_pages().

However it's no longer necessary to set the pointer before installing the
mapping.  Commit c1bab64360 ("powerpc/vdso: Move to
_install_special_mapping() and remove arch_vma_name()") reworked the code
so that the VMA name comes from the vm_special_mapping.name, rather than
relying on arch_vma_name().

So rework the code to only set the VDSO pointer once the mappings have
been installed correctly, and remove the stale comment.

Mike KravetzandAndrew Morton e9adcfecf5 mm: remove zap_page_range and create zap_vma_pages
zap_page_range was originally designed to unmap pages within an address
range that could span multiple vmas.  While working on [1], it was
discovered that all callers of zap_page_range pass a range entirely within
a single vma.  In addition, the mmu notification call within zap_page
range does not correctly handle ranges that span multiple vmas.  When
crossing a vma boundary, a new mmu_notifier_range_init/end call pair with
the new vma should be made.

Instead of fixing zap_page_range, do the following:
- Create a new routine zap_vma_pages() that will remove all pages within
  the passed vma.  Most users of zap_page_range pass the entire vma and
  can use this new routine.
- For callers of zap_page_range not passing the entire vma, instead call
  zap_page_range_single().
- Remove zap_page_range.

Rohan McLureandMichael Ellerman 7e92e01b72 powerpc: Provide syscall wrapper
Implement syscall wrapper as per s390, x86, arm64. When enabled
cause handlers to accept parameters from a stack frame rather than
from user scratch register state. This allows for user registers to be
safely cleared in order to reduce caller influence on speculation
within syscall routine. The wrapper is a macro that emits syscall
handler symbols that call into the target handler, obtaining its
parameters from a struct pt_regs on the stack.

As registers are already saved to the stack prior to calling
system_call_exception, it appears that this function is executed more
efficiently with the new stack-pointer convention than with parameters
passed by registers, avoiding the allocation of a stack frame for this
method. On a 32-bit system, we see >20% performance increases on the
null_syscall microbenchmark, and on a Power 8 the performance gains
amortise the cost of clearing and restoring registers which is
implemented at the end of this series, seeing final result of ~5.6%
performance improvement on null_syscall.

Syscalls are wrapped in this fashion on all platforms except for the
Cell processor as this commit does not provide SPU support. This can be
quickly fixed in a successive patch, but requires spu_sys_callback to
allocate a pt_regs structure to satisfy the wrapped calling convention.

Rohan McLureandMichael Ellerman 8640de0dee powerpc: Use common syscall handler type
Cause syscall handlers to be typed as follows when called indirectly
throughout the kernel. This is to allow for better type checking.

typedef long (*syscall_fn)(unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long,
                           unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long);

Since both 32 and 64-bit abis allow for at least the first six
machine-word length parameters to a function to be passed by registers,
even handlers which admit fewer than six parameters may be viewed as
having the above type.

Coercing syscalls to syscall_fn requires a cast to void* to avoid
-Wcast-function-type.

Fixup comparisons in VDSO to avoid pointer-integer comparison. Introduce
explicit cast on systems with SPUs.

Dmitry SafonovandMichael Ellerman 1c4bce6753 powerpc/vdso: Separate vvar vma from vdso
Since commit 511157ab64 ("powerpc/vdso: Move vdso datapage up front")
VVAR page is in front of the VDSO area. In result it breaks CRIU
(Checkpoint Restore In Userspace) [1], where CRIU expects that "[vdso]"
from /proc/../maps points at ELF/vdso image, rather than at VVAR data page.
Laurent made a patch to keep CRIU working (by reading aux vector).
But I think it still makes sence to separate two mappings into different
VMAs. It will also make ppc64 less "special" for userspace and as
a side-bonus will make VVAR page un-writable by debugger (which previously
would COW page and can be unexpected).

I opportunistically Cc stable on it: I understand that usually such
stuff isn't a stable material, but that will allow us in CRIU have
one workaround less that is needed just for one release (v5.11) on
one platform (ppc64), which we otherwise have to maintain.
I wouldn't go as far as to say that the commit 511157ab64 is ABI
regression as no other userspace got broken, but I'd really appreciate
if it gets backported to v5.11 after v5.12 is released, so as not
to complicate already non-simple CRIU-vdso code. Thanks!
