Filling in struct siginfo before calling force_sig_info a tedious and
error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields
are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared.
Simplify this process by using the helper force_sig_fault. Which
takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures
all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly
and then calls force_sig_info.
In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time force_sig_info
is called, which makes the calling function clearer.

Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly
initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions.
Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct
siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when
initializing a structure.
The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit
was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into
tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local
variable siginfo gets fully initialized.
In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it
clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function
in which it is declared.
Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced
with calls clear_siginfo for clarity.

Patch series "exec: Pin stack limit during exec".
Attempts to solve problems with the stack limit changing during exec
continue to be frustrated[1][2]. In addition to the specific issues
around the Stack Clash family of flaws, Andy Lutomirski pointed out[3]
other places during exec where the stack limit is used and is assumed to
be unchanging. Given the many places it gets used and the fact that it
can be manipulated/raced via setrlimit() and prlimit(), I think the only
way to handle this is to move away from the "current" view of the stack
limit and instead attach it to the bprm, and plumb this down into the
functions that need to know the stack limits. This series implements
the approach.
[1] 04e35f4495 ("exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()")
[2] 779f4e1c6c ("Revert "exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()"")
[3] to security@kernel.org, "Subject: existing rlimit races?"
This patch (of 3):
Since it is possible that the stack rlimit can change externally during
exec (either via another thread calling setrlimit() or another process
calling prlimit()), provide a way to pass the rlimit down into the
per-architecture mm layout functions so that the rlimit can stay in the
bprm structure instead of sitting in the signal structure until exec is
finalized.

With CONFIG_EXPOLINE_AUTO=y the call of spectre_v2_auto_early() via
early_initcall is done *after* the early_param functions. This
overwrites any settings done with the nobp/no_spectre_v2/spectre_v2
parameters. The code patching for the kernel is done after the
evaluation of the early parameters but before the early_initcall
is done. The end result is a kernel image that is patched correctly
but the kernel modules are not.
Make sure that the nospec auto detection function is called before the
early parameters are evaluated and before the code patching is done.

There was an artificial restriction on the card/adapter id

ids with 8 bit. This patch removes this restriction to 64
adapters and now up to 256 adapter can get addressed.
Some of the ioctl calls work on the max number of cards
possible (which was 64). These ioctls are now deprecated
but still supported. All the defines, structs and ioctl
interface declarations have been kept for compabibility.
There are now new ioctls (and defines for these) with an

s390 kdump reipl implementation relies on os_info kernel structure
residing in old memory being dumped. os_info contains reipl block,
which is used (if valid) by the kdump kernel for reipl parameters.
The problem is that the reipl block and its checksum inside
os_info is updated only when /sys/firmware/reipl/reipl_type is
written. This sets an offset of a reipl block for "reipl_type" and
re-calculates reipl block checksum. Any further alteration of values
under /sys/firmware/reipl/{reipl_type}/ without subsequent write to
/sys/firmware/reipl/reipl_type lead to incorrect os_info reipl block
checksum. In such a case kdump kernel ignores it and reboots using
default logic.
To fix this, os_info reipl block update is moved right before kdump
execution.

Tests with paes-xts and debugging investigations showed
that the ciphers are not always correctly resolved.
The rules for cipher priorities seem to be:
- Ecb-aes should have a prio greater than the
generic ecb-aes.
- The mode specialized ciphers (like cbc-aes-s390)
should have a prio greater than the sum of the
more generic combinations (like cbs(aes)).
This patch adjusts the cipher priorities for the

[ slab.h is the second most used header file after module.h; kernel.h is

counting due to some #includes having comments after them and I didn't
combine all of those. ]

Using the ksys_p{read,write}64() wrappers allows us to get rid of
in-kernel calls to the sys_pread64() and sys_pwrite64() syscalls.
The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in
replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling
convention as sys_p{read,write}64().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

It seems to be suboptimal to compress the entire image, so that we
could decompress and throw away the first 68k (0x11000) during the boot
process. This patch trims 0x11000 bytes during the build process and
adjusts symbols in size.h accordingly.
Besides making bzImage smaller, this change would also be a benefit
for kaslr. It allows to decompress the kernel right to desired offset,
without worrying about dead weight in front of the decompressed image.

A kernel crash occurs when the aes_s390 kernel module is
removed on machines < z14. This only happens on kernel
version 4.15 and higher on machines not supporting MSA 8.
The reason for the crash is a unconditional
crypto_unregister_aead() invocation where no previous
crypto_register_aead() had been called. The fix now
remembers if there has been a successful registration and
only then calls the unregister function upon kernel module
remove.
The code now crashing has been introduced with
"bf7fa03 s390/crypto: add s390 platform specific aes gcm support."

The S390 architecture does not support any graphics hardware,
but with the latest support for Virtio GPU in Linux and Virtio
GPU emulation in QEMU, it's possible to enable graphics for
S390 using the Virtio GPU device.
To enable display we need to enable the Linux Virtual Terminal (VT)
layer for S390. But the VT subsystem initializes quite early
at boot so we need a dummy console driver till the Virtio GPU
driver is initialized and we can run the framebuffer console.
The framebuffer console over a Virtio GPU device can be run
in combination with the serial SCLP console (default on S390).
The SCLP console can still be accessed by management applications
(eg: via Libvirt's virsh console).
