commit b6c84ba22ff3a198eb8d5552cf9b8fda1d792e54 upstream.

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
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc00800000bcf3b20

  ksys_ioctl+0x68/0xf0
  sys_ioctl+0x40/0xa0
  system_call+0x58/0x6c

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.

commit f59acbc5e0f7f90452efd4c3318d5e5ec042c3e0 upstream.

In 4.9 kernel, the sysfs files for Hyper-V VMBus changed name but
the documentation files were not updated. The current sysfs file
names are /sys/bus/vmbus/devices/&lt;UUID&gt;/...

See commit 9a56e5d6a0ba ("Drivers: hv: make VMBus bus ids persistent")
and commit f6b2db084b65 ("vmbus: make sysfs names consistent with PCI")

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.

Add the sysfs file for the new vulerability. It does not do much except
show the words 'Vulnerable' for recent x86 cores.

Intel cores prior to family 6 are known not to be vulnerable, and so are
some Atoms and some Xeon Phi.

It assumes that older Cyrix, Centaur, etc. cores are immune.

Pull RTC updates from Alexandre Belloni:
 "This contains a few series that have been in preparation for a while
  and that will help systems with RTCs that will fail in 2038, 2069 or
  2100.

  Subsystem:
   - Add tracepoints
   - Rework of the RTC/nvmem API to allow drivers to discard struct
     nvmem_config after registration
   - New range API, drivers can now expose the useful range of the RTC
   - New offset API the core is now able to add an offset to the RTC
     time, modifying the supported range.
   - Multiple rtc_time64_to_tm fixes
   - Handle time_t overflow on 32 bit platforms in the core instead of
     letting drivers do crazy things.
   - remove rtc_control API

  New driver:
   - Intersil ISL12026

  Drivers:
   - Drivers exposing the RTC non volatile memory have been converted to
     use nvmem
   - Removed useless time and date validation
   - Removed an indirection pattern that was a cargo cult from ancient
     drivers

  Garrett:

     For IMA purposes, we want to be able to obtain the prepared secid
     in the bprm structure before the credentials are committed. Add a
     cred_getsecid hook that makes this possible.

  which is used by a new CREDS_CHECK target in IMA:

     In ima_bprm_check(), check with both the existing process
     credentials and the credentials that will be committed when the new
     process is started. This will not change behaviour unless the
     system policy is extended to include CREDS_CHECK targets -
     BPRM_CHECK will continue to check the same credentials that it did
     previously"

Pull f2fs update from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we've mainly focused on performance tuning and critical
  bug fixes occurred in low-end devices. Sheng Yong introduced
  lost_found feature to keep missing files during recovery instead of
  thrashing them. We're preparing coming fsverity implementation. And,
  we've got more features to communicate with users for better
  performance. In low-end devices, some memory-related issues were
  fixed, and subtle race condtions and corner cases were addressed as
  well.

  Enhancements:
   - large nat bitmaps for more free node ids
   - add three block allocation policies to pass down write hints given by user
   - expose extension list to user and introduce hot file extension
   - tune small devices seamlessly for low-end devices
   - set readdir_ra by default
   - give more resources under gc_urgent mode regarding to discard and cleaning
   - introduce fsync_mode to enforce posix or not
   - nowait aio support
   - add lost_found feature to keep dangling inodes
   - reserve bits for future fsverity feature
   - add test_dummy_encryption for FBE

  Bug fixes:
   - don't use highmem for dentry pages
   - align memory boundary for bitops
   - truncate preallocated blocks in write errors
   - guarantee i_times on fsync call
   - clear CP_TRIMMED_FLAG correctly
   - prevent node chain loop during recovery
   - avoid data race between atomic write and background cleaning
   - avoid unnecessary selinux violation warnings on resgid option
   - GFP_NOFS to avoid deadlock in quota and read paths
   - fix f2fs_skip_inode_update to allow i_size recovery

  In addition to the above, there are several minor bug fixes and clean-ups"
