Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, we've mainly focused on discard, aka unmap, control
along with fstrim for Android-specific usage model. In addition, we've
fixed writepage flow which returned EAGAIN previously resulting in EIO
of fsync(2) due to mapping's error state. In order to avoid old MM bug
[1], we decided not to use __GFP_ZERO for the mapping for node and
meta page caches. As always, we've cleaned up many places for future
fsverity and symbol conflicts.
Enhancements:
- do discard/fstrim in lower priority considering fs utilization
- split large discard commands into smaller ones for better responsiveness
- add more sanity checks to address syzbot reports
- add a mount option, fsync_mode=nobarrier, which can reduce # of cache flushes
- clean up symbol namespace with modified function names
- be strict on block allocation and IO control in corner cases
Bug fixes:
- don't use __GFP_ZERO for mappings
- fix error reports in writepage to avoid fsync() failure
- avoid selinux denial on CAP_RESOURCE on resgid/resuid
- fix some subtle race conditions in GC/atomic writes/shutdown
- fix overflow bugs in sanity_check_raw_super
- fix missing bits on get_flags
Clean-ups:
- prepare the generic flow for future fsverity integration
- fix some broken coding standard"

Pull staging/IIO updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big staging and IIO driver update for 4.18-rc1.
It was delayed as I wanted to make sure the final driver deletions did
not cause any major merge issues, and all now looks good.
There are a lot of patches here, just over 1000. The diffstat summary
shows the major changes here:
1007 files changed, 16828 insertions(+), 227770 deletions(-)
Because of this, we might be close to shrinking the overall kernel
source code size for two releases in a row.
There was loads of work in this release cycle, primarily:
- tons of ks7010 driver cleanups
- lots of mt7621 driver fixes and cleanups
- most driver cleanups
- wilc1000 fixes and cleanups
- lots and lots of IIO driver cleanups and new additions
- debugfs cleanups for all staging drivers
- lots of other staging driver cleanups and fixes, the shortlog has
the full details.
but the big user-visable things here are the removal of 3 chunks of
code:
- ncpfs and ipx were removed on schedule, no one has cared about this
code since it moved to staging last year, and if it needs to come
back, it can be reverted.
- lustre file system is removed.
I've ranted at the lustre developers about once a year for the past
5 years, with no real forward progress at all to clean things up
and get the code into the "real" part of the kernel.
Given that the lustre developers continue to work on an external
tree and try to port those changes to the in-kernel tree every once
in a while, this whole thing really really is not working out at
all. So I'm deleting it so that the developers can spend the time
working in their out-of-tree location and get things cleaned up
properly to get merged into the tree correctly at a later date.
Because of these file removals, you will have merge issues on some of
these files (2 in the ipx code, 1 in the ncpfs code, and 1 in the
atomisp driver). Just delete those files, it's a simple merge :)
All of this has been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems"

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to
memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the
x86-dax- for-linus pull.
Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for
handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax
mappings.
Summary:
- DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped
pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a
pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical
block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block.
Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for
pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem
could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.
- DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().
- Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform
Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they
are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are
power-fail protected. Clarify that a deep flush is always performed
on REQ_{FUA,PREFLUSH} requests"

The "Clear Error Unit" may be smaller than the ECC unit size on some
devices. For example, poison may be tracked at 64-byte alignment even
though the ECC unit is larger. Unless / until the ACPI specification
provides a non-ambiguous way to communicate this property do not expose
this to userspace.
Software that had been using this property must already be prepared for
the case where the property is not provided on older kernels, so it is
safe to remove this attribute.

We ended up with an ugly conflict between fixes and next in ftrace.h
involving multiple nested ifdefs, and the automatic resolution is
wrong. So merge fixes into next so we can fix it up.
Currently we see a kernel-oops reported on Power-9 while attaching a
context to an AFU, with radix-mode and sysfs attr 'prefault_mode' set
to anything other than 'none'. The backtrace of the oops is of this
form:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000080

The issue is caused as on Power-8 the AFU attr 'prefault_mode' was
used to improve initial storage fault performance by prefaulting
process segments. However on Power-9 with radix mode we don't have
Storage-Segments that we can prefault. Also prefaulting process Pages
will be too costly and fine-grained.
Hence, since the prefaulting mechanism doesn't makes sense of
radix-mode, this patch updates prefault_mode_store() to not allow any
other value apart from CXL_PREFAULT_NONE when radix mode is enabled.

Currently, the USB hub core waits for 50 ms after enumerating the

enumerate (b789696af8 "[PATCH] USB: relax usbcore reset timings").
On some devices, the time-to-active is important, so we provide
a per-port option to reduce the time to what the USB specification

The "old" enumeration scheme is considerably faster (it takes
~244ms instead of ~356ms to get the descriptor).
It is currently only possible to use the old scheme globally
(/sys/module/usbcore/parameters/old_scheme_first), which is not
desirable as the new scheme was introduced to increase compatibility
with more devices.
However, in our case, we care about time-to-active for a specific
USB device (which we make the firmware for), on a specific port
(that is pogo-pin based: not a standard USB port). This new
sysfs option makes it possible to use the old scheme on a single
port only.

Now, we issue discard asynchronously in separated thread instead of in
checkpoint, after that, we won't encounter long latency in checkpoint
due to huge number of synchronous discard command handling, so, we don't
need to split checkpoint to do trim in batch, merge it and obsolete
related sysfs entry.

If/when file data signatures are distributed with the file data, this
patch will not be needed. In the current environment where only some
files are signed, the ability to differentiate between file systems is
needed. Some file systems consider the file system magic number
internal to the file system.
This patch defines a new IMA policy condition named "fsname", based on
the superblock's file_system_type (sb->s_type) name. This allows policy
rules to be expressed in terms of the filesystem name.
The following sample rules require file signatures on rootfs files
executed or mmap'ed.
appraise func=BPRM_CHECK fsname=rootfs appraise_type=imasig
appraise func=FILE_MMAP fsname=rootfs appraise_type=imasig

Some of latest Lenovo ideapad laptops do not have UEFI/BIOS setting for
switching fn-lock mode. This commit adds related acpi calls to ideapad
platform driver. However setting is available via sysfs.

Merge speculative store buffer bypass fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- rework of the SPEC_CTRL MSR management to accomodate the new fancy
SSBD (Speculative Store Bypass Disable) bit handling.
- the CPU bug and sysfs infrastructure for the exciting new Speculative
Store Bypass 'feature'.
- support for disabling SSB via LS_CFG MSR on AMD CPUs including
Hyperthread synchronization on ZEN.
- PRCTL support for dynamic runtime control of SSB
- SECCOMP integration to automatically disable SSB for sandboxed
processes with a filter flag for opt-out.
- KVM integration to allow guests fiddling with SSBD including the new
software MSR VIRT_SPEC_CTRL to handle the LS_CFG based oddities on
AMD.
- BPF protection against SSB
.. this is just the core and x86 side, other architecture support will
come separately.

Sites may wish to provide additional metadata alongside files in order
to make more fine-grained security decisions[1]. The security of this is
enhanced if this metadata is protected, something that EVM makes
possible. However, the kernel cannot know about the set of extended
attributes that local admins may wish to protect, and hardcoding this
policy in the kernel makes it difficult to change over time and less
convenient for distributions to enable.
This patch adds a new /sys/kernel/security/integrity/evm/evm_xattrs node,
which can be read to obtain the current set of EVM-protected extended
attributes or written to in order to add new entries. Extending this list
will not change the validity of any existing signatures provided that the
file in question does not have any of the additional extended attributes -
missing xattrs are skipped when calculating the EVM hash.
[1] For instance, a package manager could install information about the
package uploader in an additional extended attribute. Local LSM policy
could then be associated with that extended attribute in order to
restrict the privileges available to packages from less trusted
uploaders.
