perf symbols: Fix symbols searching for module in buildid-cache
Before this patch, if a sample is triggered inside a module not in
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/, even if the module is in buildid-cache, 'perf
report' will still be unable to find the correct symbol. For example:
# rm -rf ~/.debug/
# perf buildid-cache -a ./mymodule.ko
# perf probe -m ./mymodule.ko -a get_mymodule_val
Added new event:
probe:get_mymodule_val (on get_mymodule_val in mymodule)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:get_mymodule_val -aR sleep 1
# perf record -e probe:get_mymodule_val cat /proc/mymodule
mymodule:3
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data (1 samples) ]
This is caused by dso__load() -> dso__load_sym(). In dso__load(), kmod
is true only when its file is found in some well know directories. All
files loaded from buildid-cache are treated as user programs. Following
dso__load_sym() set map->pgoff incorrectly.
This patch gives kernel modules in buildid-cache a chance to adjust
value of kmod. After dso__load() get the type of symbols, if it is
buildid, check the last 3 chars of original filename against '.ko', and
adjust the value of kmod if the file is a kernel module.

ARC: mm: Introduce explicit super page size support
MMUv4 supports 2 concurrent page sizes: Normal and Super [4K to 16M]
So far Linux supported a single super page size for a given Normal page,
depending on the software page walking address split.
e.g. we had 11:8:13 address split for 8K page, which meant super page
was 2 ^(8+13) = 2M (given that THP size has to be PMD_SHIFT)
Now we turn this around, by allowing multiple Super Pages in Kconfig
(currently 2M and 16M only) and forcing page walker address split to
PGDIR_SHIFT and PAGE_SHIFT
For configs without Super page, things are same as before and
PGDIR_SHIFT can be hacked to get non default address split

and a 8K Normal page combo.

mm,thp: khugepaged: call pte flush at the time of collapse
This showed up on ARC when running LMBench bw_mem tests as Overlapping
TLB Machine Check Exception triggered due to STLB entry (2M pages)
overlapping some NTLB entry (regular 8K page).
bw_mem 2m touches a large chunk of vaddr creating NTLB entries. In the
interim khugepaged kicks in, collapsing the contiguous ptes into a
single pmd. pmdp_collapse_flush()->flush_pmd_tlb_range() is called to
flush out NTLB entries for the ptes. This for ARC (by design) can only
shootdown STLB entries (for pmd). The stray NTLB entries cause the
overlap with the subsequent STLB entry for collapsed page. So make
pmdp_collapse_flush() call pte flush interface not pmd flush.
Note that originally all thp flush call sites in generic code called
flush_tlb_range() leaving it to architecture to implement the flush for
pte and/or pmd. Commit 12ebc1581ad11454 changed this by calling a new
opt-in API flush_pmd_tlb_range() which made the semantics more explicit
but failed to distinguish the pte vs pmd flush in generic code, which is
what this patch fixes.
Note that ARC can fixed w/o touching the generic pmdp_collapse_flush()
by defining a ARC version, but that defeats the purpose of generic
version, plus sementically this is the right thing to do.

DAX implements split_huge_pmd() by clearing pmd. This simple approach
reduces memory overhead, as we don't need to deposit page table on huge

allocated and populated later on page fault from backing store.
But one side effect is that have to check if pmd is pmd_none() after

parallel MADV_DONTNEED.
But I found two call sites which is not affected by MADV_DONTNEED (due
down_write(mmap_sem)), but need to have the check to work with DAX
properly.
The kptr_restrict flag, when set to 1, only prints the kernel address
when the user has CAP_SYSLOG. When it is set to 2, the kernel address
is always printed as zero. When set to 1, this needs to check whether

However, when set to 2, this check is unneccessary, and produces
confusing results in dmesg. Thus, only make sure we're not in IRQ when
mode 1 is used, but not mode 2.

btrfs: properly set the termination value of ctx->pos in readdir
The value of ctx->pos in the last readdir call is supposed to be set to
INT_MAX due to 32bit compatibility, unless 'pos' is intentially set to a
larger value, then it's LLONG_MAX.
There's a report from PaX SIZE_OVERFLOW plugin that "ctx->pos++"
overflows (https://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4284), on a
64bit arch, where the value is 0x7fffffffffffffff ie. LLONG_MAX before
the increment.
We can get to that situation like that:
* emit all regular readdir entries
* still in the same call to readdir, bump the last pos to INT_MAX
* next call to readdir will not emit any entries, but will reach the
bump code again, finds pos to be INT_MAX and sets it to LLONG_MAX
Normally this is not a problem, but if we call readdir again, we'll find
'pos' set to LLONG_MAX and the unconditional increment will overflow.
The report from Victor at
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/49500) with debugging
print shows that pattern:
The jump from 7fffffff to 7fffffffffffffff happens when new dir entries
are not yet synced and are processed from the delayed list. Then the code
could go to the bump section again even though it might not emit any new
dir entries from the delayed list.
The fix avoids entering the "bump" section again once we've finished
emitting the entries, both for synced and delayed entries.

component: remove device from master match list on failed add
Calling component_add() may result in the completion of a set of
devices, which will try to bring up a master. In bringing the master

If binding any of the devices fails, component_add() itself will fail,
free the struct component entry, and return to the caller. The
now-freed entry is never removed from the master's match array, and
will later be used in a futile attempt to bind to freed memory.
Bring component_add's behaviour on failure to bring up a master into
line with component_del by removing the (to-be-freed) component from
the master's match array.
The specific case which broke was:
- rockchip_drm_drv adds a component master
- dwhdmi_rockchip adds a child component in probe (master incomplete)
- rockchip_drm_vop adds two children in probe, which completes the
set
- inside component_add, we try to bring up the master, having
populated the master's match array, and fail with EPROBE_DEFER from
dwhdmi_rockchip; we delete the putative component
- rockchip_drm_vop's probe fails and returns EPROBE_DEFER
- we later re-probe rockchip_drm_vop and add the component; the
master is complete, so we attempt to bring it up again
- walking the match array, we find the previous child, whose master
pointer doesn't match (as it has been freed in the meantime)

bpf: fix branch offset adjustment on backjumps after patching ctx expansion
When ctx access is used, the kernel often needs to expand/rewrite
instructions, so after that patching, branch offsets have to be
adjusted for both forward and backward jumps in the new eBPF program,
but for backward jumps it fails to account the delta. Meaning, for
example, if the expansion happens exactly on the insn that sits at
the jump target, it doesn't fix up the back jump offset.
Analysis on what the check in adjust_branches() is currently doing:
/* adjust offset of jmps if necessary */
if (i < pos && i + insn->off + 1 > pos)
insn->off += delta;
else if (i > pos && i + insn->off + 1 < pos)
insn->off -= delta;
First case is if we cross pos-boundary and the jump instruction was
before pos. This is handeled correctly. I.e. if i == pos, then this
would mean our jump that we currently check was the patchlet itself
that we just injected. Since such patchlets are self-contained and
have no awareness of any insns before or after the patched one, the
delta is correctly not adjusted. Also, for the second condition in
case of i + insn->off + 1 == pos, means we jump to that newly patched
instruction, so no offset adjustment are needed. That part is correct.
Second interesting case is where we cross pos-boundary and the jump
instruction was after pos. Backward jump with i == pos would be
impossible and pose a bug somewhere in the patchlet, so the first
condition checking i > pos is okay only by itself. However, i +
insn->off + 1 < pos does not always work as intended to trigger the
adjustment. It works when jump targets would be far off where the
delta wouldn't matter. But, for example, where the fixed insn->off
before pointed to pos (target_Y), it now points to pos + delta, so
that additional room needs to be taken into account for the check.
This means that i) both tests here need to be adjusted into pos + delta,
and ii) for the second condition, the test needs to be <= as pos
itself can be a target in the backjump, too.

workqueue: handle NUMA_NO_NODE for unbound pool_workqueue lookup
When looking up the pool_workqueue to use for an unbound workqueue,
workqueue assumes that the target CPU is always bound to a valid NUMA
node. However, currently, when a CPU goes offline, the mapping is
destroyed and cpu_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE.
This has always been broken but hasn't triggered often enough before 874bbfe600a6 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu").
After the commit, workqueue forcifully assigns the local CPU for
delayed work items without explicit target CPU to fix a different
issue. This widens the window where CPU can go offline while a
delayed work item is pending causing delayed work items dispatched
with target CPU set to an already offlined CPU. The resulting
NUMA_NO_NODE mapping makes workqueue try to queue the work item on a
NULL pool_workqueue and thus crash.
While 874bbfe600a6 has been reverted for a different reason making the
bug less visible again, it can still happen. Fix it by mapping
NUMA_NO_NODE to the default pool_workqueue from unbound_pwq_by_node().
This is a temporary workaround. The long term solution is keeping CPU
-> NODE mapping stable across CPU off/online cycles which is being
worked on.

2. seed value for user space programs
3. Arg to SLEEP instruction in idle task (what interrupt prio can wake)
4. Per-IRQ line prioirty (i.e. what is the priority of interrupt

problem when multiple priorities are supported. e.g. user space could
only be interrupted by P0 interrupt, not others...
So turn this over and instead make default interruption level to be
the lowest priority possible 15. This should be fine even if there are
fewer priority levels configured (say two: P0 HIGH, P1 LOW)
This feature also effectively disables FIRQ feature if present in
hardware config. With old code, a P0 interrupt would be FIRQ, needing
special handling (ISR or Register Banks) which is NOT supported yet.
Now it not be P0 (P15 or whatever is lowest prio) so FIRQ is not
