For many sun4v processor types, reading or writing a privileged register
has a latency of 40 to 70 cycles. Use a combination of the low-latency
allclean, otherw, normalw, and nop instructions in etrap and rtrap to
replace 2 rdpr and 5 wrpr instructions and improve etrap/rtrap
performance. allclean, otherw, and normalw are available on NG2 and
later processors.

This fixes another cause of random segfaults and bus errors that may
occur while running perf with the callgraph option.
Critical sections beginning with spin_lock_irqsave() raise the interrupt
level to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14) and intentionally do not block performance
counter interrupts, which arrive at PIL_NMI (15).
But some sections of code are "super critical" with respect to perf
because the perf_callchain_user() path accesses user space and may cause
TLB activity as well as faults as it unwinds the user stack.
One particular critical section occurs in switch_mm:
spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->context.lock, flags);
...
load_secondary_context(mm);
tsb_context_switch(mm);
...
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->context.lock, flags);
If a perf interrupt arrives in between load_secondary_context() and
tsb_context_switch(), then perf_callchain_user() could execute with
the context ID of one process, but with an active TSB for a different
process. When the user stack is accessed, it is very likely to
incur a TLB miss, since the h/w context ID has been changed. The TLB
will then be reloaded with a translation from the TSB for one process,
but using a context ID for another process. This exposes memory from
one process to another, and since it is a mapping for stack memory,
this usually causes the new process to crash quickly.
This super critical section needs more protection than is provided
by spin_lock_irqsave() since perf interrupts must not be allowed in.
Since __tsb_context_switch already goes through the trouble of
disabling interrupts completely, we fix this by moving the secondary
context load down into this better protected region.

binfmt_flat: flat_{get,put}_addr_from_rp() should be able to fail
A large sun4v SPARC system may have moments of intensive xcall activities,
usually caused by unmapping many pages on many CPUs concurrently. This can
flood receivers with CPU mondo interrupts for an extended period, causing
some unlucky senders to hit send-mondo timeout. This problem gets worse
as cpu count increases because sometimes mappings must be invalidated on
all CPUs, and sometimes all CPUs may gang up on a single CPU.
But a busy system is not a broken system. In the above scenario, as long
as the receiver is making forward progress processing mondo interrupts,
the sender should continue to retry.
This patch implements the receiver's forward progress meter by introducing
a per cpu counter 'cpu_mondo_counter[cpu]' where 'cpu' is in the range
of 0..NR_CPUS. The receiver increments its counter as soon as it receives
a mondo and the sender tracks the receiver's counter. If the receiver has
stopped making forward progress when the retry limit is reached, the sender
declares send-mondo-timeout and panic; otherwise, the receiver is allowed
to keep making forward progress.
In addition, it's been observed that PCIe hotplug events generate Correctable
Errors that are handled by hypervisor and then OS. Hypervisor 'borrows'
a guest cpu strand briefly to provide the service. If the cpu strand is
simultaneously the only cpu targeted by a mondo, it may not be available
for the mondo in 20msec, causing SUN4V mondo timeout. It appears that 1 second
is the agreed wait time between hypervisor and guest OS, this patch makes
the adjustment.

Here is the large tty/serial patchset for 4.13-rc1.
A lot of tty and serial driver updates are in here, along with some
fixups for some __get/put_user usages that were reported. Nothing huge,
just lots of development by a number of different developers, full
details in the shortlog.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while. There will be a merge
issue with the arm-soc tree in the include/linux/platform_data/atmel.h
file. Stephen has sent out a fixup for it, so it shouldn't be that
difficult to merge.

Usually dma_supported decisions are done by the dma_map_ops instance.
Switch sparc to that model by providing a ->dma_supported instance for
sbus that always returns false, and implementations tailored to the sun4u
and sun4v cases for sparc64, and leave it unimplemented for PCI on
sparc32, which means always supported.

Enhances search for VIO device in MDESC by leveraging already existing
MDESC APIs. Enhances changes in earlier patch,
"sparc: Machine description indices can vary", by using existing MD
search functions. It also specifies a match function, thereby
enabling device_find_child() to use it for the purpose of matching
device nodes in MDESC.
An API to find VDEV node in MDESC based on its md_node_info is also
added. It is planned to be used by VIO device clients in the future.

This adds the new getsockopt(2) option SO_PEERGROUPS on SOL_SOCKET to
retrieve the auxiliary groups of the remote peer. It is designed to
naturally extend SO_PEERCRED. That is, the underlying data is from the
same credentials. Regarding its syntax, it is based on SO_PEERSEC. That
is, if the provided buffer is too small, ERANGE is returned and @optlen
is updated. Otherwise, the information is copied, @optlen is set to the
actual size, and 0 is returned.
While SO_PEERCRED (and thus `struct ucred') already returns the primary
group, it lacks the auxiliary group vector. However, nearly all access
controls (including kernel side VFS and SYSVIPC, but also user-space
polkit, DBus, ...) consider the entire set of groups, rather than just
the primary group. But this is currently not possible with pure
SO_PEERCRED. Instead, user-space has to work around this and query the
system database for the auxiliary groups of a UID retrieved via
SO_PEERCRED.
Unfortunately, there is no race-free way to query the auxiliary groups
of the PID/UID retrieved via SO_PEERCRED. Hence, the current user-space
solution is to use getgrouplist(3p), which itself falls back to NSS and
whatever is configured in nsswitch.conf(3). This effectively checks
which groups we *would* assign to the user if it logged in *now*. On
normal systems it is as easy as reading /etc/group, but with NSS it can
resort to quering network databases (eg., LDAP), using IPC or network
communication.
Long story short: Whenever we want to use auxiliary groups for access
checks on IPC, we need further IPC to talk to the user/group databases,
rather than just relying on SO_PEERCRED and the incoming socket. This
is unfortunate, and might even result in dead-locks if the database
query uses the same IPC as the original request.
So far, those recursions / dead-locks have been avoided by using
primitive IPC for all crucial NSS modules. However, we want to avoid
re-inventing the wheel for each NSS module that might be involved in
user/group queries. Hence, we would preferably make DBus (and other IPC
that supports access-management based on groups) work without resorting
to the user/group database. This new SO_PEERGROUPS ioctl would allow us
to make dbus-daemon work without ever calling into NSS.

When opening the slave end of a PTY, it is not possible for userspace to
safely ensure that /dev/pts/$num is actually a slave (in cases where the
mount namespace in which devpts was mounted is controlled by an
untrusted process). In addition, there are several unresolvable
race conditions if userspace were to attempt to detect attacks through
stat(2) and other similar methods [in addition it is not clear how
userspace could detect attacks involving FUSE].
Resolve this by providing an interface for userpace to safely open the
"peer" end of a PTY file descriptor by using the dentry cached by
devpts. Since it is not possible to have an open master PTY without
having its slave exposed in /dev/pts this interface is safe. This
interface currently does not provide a way to get the master pty (since
it is not clear whether such an interface is safe or even useful).
