b1b6f83ac9 Merge branch 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support

  The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
  hardware features of x86 CPUs:

   - Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
     upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
     and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
     limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
     ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)

     Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
     v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.

     This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
     default.

     (By Kirill A. Shutemov)

   - Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
     upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
     RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
     CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
     encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
     attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
     radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
     decrypt) as well.

     This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
     by default.

     (By Tom Lendacky)

   - Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
     hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
     and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
     switch mm's.

     (By Andy Lutomirski)

  All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
  it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
  are all enabled in v4.14 at once"

caba4cbbd2 debugobjects: Make kmemleak ignore debug objects
The allocated debug objects are either on the free list or in the
hashed bucket lists. So they won't get lost. However if both debug
objects and kmemleak are enabled and kmemleak scanning is done
while some of the debug objects are transitioning from one list to
the others, false negative reporting of memory leaks may happen for
those objects. For example,

[38687.275678] kmemleak: 12 new suspected memory leaks (see
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)
unreferenced object 0xffff92e98aabeb68 (size 40):

The references in the debug objects may also hide a real memory leak.

As there is no point in having kmemleak to track debug object
allocations, kmemleak checking is now disabled for debug objects.

18f08dae19 sched/core: Remove unnecessary initialization init_idle_bootup_task()
init_idle_bootup_task( ) is called in rest_init( ) to switch
the scheduling class of the boot thread to the idle class.

the function only sets:

    idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class;

which has been set in init_idle() called by sched_init():

    /*
     * The idle tasks have their own, simple scheduling class:
     */
    idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class;

We've already set the boot thread to idle class in
start_kernel()->sched_init()->init_idle()
so it's unnecessary to set it again in
start_kernel()->rest_init()->init_idle_bootup_task()

c7753208a9 x86, swiotlb: Add memory encryption support
Since DMA addresses will effectively look like 48-bit addresses when the
memory encryption mask is set, SWIOTLB is needed if the DMA mask of the
device performing the DMA does not support 48-bits. SWIOTLB will be
initialized to create decrypted bounce buffers for use by these devices.

ee7998c50c random: do not ignore early device randomness
The add_device_randomness() function would ignore incoming bytes if the
crng wasn't ready.  This additionally makes sure to make an early enough
call to add_latent_entropy() to influence the initial stack canary,
which is especially important on non-x86 systems where it stays the same
through the life of the boot.

7660a6fddc mm: allow slab_nomerge to be set at build time
Some hardened environments want to build kernels with slab_nomerge
already set (so that they do not depend on remembering to set the kernel
command line option).  This is desired to reduce the risk of kernel heap
overflows being able to overwrite objects from merged caches and changes
the requirements for cache layout control, increasing the difficulty of
these attacks.  By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits can
usually only damage objects in the same cache (though the risk to
metadata exploitation is unchanged).

ae91aa0adb rcu: Remove debugfs tracing
RCU's debugfs tracing used to be the only reasonable low-level debug
information available, but ftrace and event tracing has since surpassed
the RCU debugfs level of usefulness.  This commit therefore removes
RCU's debugfs tracing.

bd8cc5a062 srcu: Remove Classic SRCU
Classic SRCU was only ever intended to be a fallback in case of issues
with Tree/Tiny SRCU, and the latter two are doing quite well in testing.
This commit therefore removes Classic SRCU.

f7a10a9750 rcu: Remove the RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO Kconfig option
Anything that can be done with the RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO Kconfig option can
also be done with the rcutree.kthread_prio kernel boot parameter.
This commit therefore removes this Kconfig option.

2464dd940e srcu: Apply trivial callback lists to shrink Tiny SRCU
The rcu_segcblist structure provides quite a bit of functionality, and
Tiny SRCU needs almost none of it.  So this commit replaces Tiny SRCU's
uses of rcu_segcblist with a simple singly linked list with tail pointer.
This change significantly reduces Tiny SRCU's memory footprint, more
than making up for the growth caused by the creation of rcu_segcblist.c

07f6e64bf2 srcu: Make SRCU be once again optional
Commit d160a727c4 ("srcu: Make SRCU be built by default") in response
to build errors, which were caused by code that included srcu.h
despite !SRCU.  However, srcutiny.o is almost 2K of code, which is not
insignificant for those attempting to run the Linux kernel on IoT devices.
This commit therefore makes SRCU be once again optional, and adjusts
srcu.h to allow error-free inclusion in !SRCU kernel builds.

1c3c5eab17 sched/core: Enable might_sleep() and smp_processor_id() checks early
might_sleep() and smp_processor_id() checks are enabled after the boot
process is done. That hides bugs in the SMP bringup and driver
initialization code.

Enable it right when the scheduler starts working, i.e. when init task and
kthreadd have been created and right before the idle task enables
preemption.

8fb12156b8 init: Pin init task to the boot CPU, initially
Some of the boot code in init_kernel_freeable() which runs before SMP
bringup assumes (rightfully) that it runs on the boot CPU and therefore can
use smp_processor_id() in preemptible context.

That works so far because the smp_processor_id() check starts to be
effective after smp bringup. That's just wrong. Starting with SMP bringup
and the ability to move threads around, smp_processor_id() in preemptible
context is broken.

Aside of that it does not make sense to allow init to run on all CPUs
before sched_smp_init() has been run.

Pin the init to the boot CPU so the existing code can continue to use
smp_processor_id() without triggering the checks when the enabling of those
checks starts earlier.

046aa1265f initramfs: use vfs_stat/lstat directly
sys_newlstat is a system call implementation that is meant for user
space, and that copies kernel-internal data structure to the user
format, which is not needed for in-kernel users.

Further, as we rearrange the system call implementation so we can extend
it with 64-bit time_t, the prototype for sys_newlstat changes.

This changes the initramfs code to use vfs_lstat directly, to get it out
of the way of the time_t changes, and make it slightly more efficient in
the process.  Along the same lines we also replace sys_stat and
sys_stat64 with vfs_stat.
