commit a6e2f029ae34f41adb6ae3812c32c5d326e1abd2 upstream.

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.

Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.

Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
that didn't previously have it.

<title>s390/vmem: fix identity mapping</title>

<content type='text'>
commit c34a69059d7876e0793eb410deedfb08ccb22b02 upstream.

The identity mapping is suboptimal for the last 2GB frame. The mapping
will be established with a mix of 4KB and 1MB mappings instead of a
single 2GB mapping.

This happens because of a off-by-one bug introduced with
commit 50be63450728 ("s390/mm: Convert bootmem to memblock").

Currently the identity mapping looks like this:

0x0000000080000000-0x0000000180000000        4G PUD RW
0x0000000180000000-0x00000001fff00000     2047M PMD RW
0x00000001fff00000-0x0000000200000000        1M PTE RW

With the bug fixed it looks like this:

0x0000000080000000-0x0000000200000000        6G PUD RW

commit a8f60d1fadf7b8b54449fcc9d6b15248917478ba upstream.

On heavy paging with KSM I see guest data corruption. Turns out that
KSM will add pages to its tree, where the mapping return true for
pte_unused (or might become as such later).  KSM will unmap such pages
and reinstantiate with different attributes (e.g. write protected or
special, e.g. in replace_page or write_protect_page)). This uncovered
a bug in our pagetable handling: We must remove the unused flag as
soon as an entry becomes present again.

commit d09c5373e8e4eaaa09233552cbf75dc4c4f21203 upstream.

Commit fd2d2b191fe7 ("s390: get_user() should zero on failure")
intended to fix s390's get_user() implementation which did not zero
the target operand if the read from user space faulted. Unfortunately
the patch has no effect: the corresponding inline assembly specifies
that the operand is only written to ("=") and the previous value is
discarded.

Therefore the compiler is free to and actually does omit the zero
initialization.

To fix this simply change the contraint modifier to "+", so the
compiler cannot omit the initialization anymore.

<content type='text'>
commit d82c0d12c92705ef468683c9b7a8298dd61ed191 upstream.

Reorder the operations in decompress_kernel() to ensure initrd is moved
to a safe location before the bss section is zeroed.

During decompression bss can overlap with the initrd and this can
corrupt the initrd contents depending on the size of the compressed
kernel (which affects where the initrd is placed by the bootloader) and
the size of the bss section of the decompressor.

Also use the correct initrd size when checking for overlaps with
parmblock.

commit 2e4d88009f57057df7672fa69a32b5224af54d37 upstream.

While we can technically not run huge page guests right now, we can
setup a guest with huge pages. Trying to migrate it will trigger a
VM_BUG_ON and, if the kernel is not configured to panic on a BUG, it
will happily try to work on non-existing page table entries.

With this patch, we always return "dirty" if we encounter a large page
when migrating. This at least fixes the immediate problem until we
have proper handling for both kind of pages.

commit 4920e3cf77347d7d7373552d4839e8d832321313 upstream.

The current implementation of setup_randomness uses the stack address
and therefore the pointer to the SYSIB 3.2.2 block as input data
address. Furthermore the length of the input data is the number of
virtual-machine description blocks which is typically one.

This means that typically a single zero byte is fed to
add_device_randomness.

Fix both of these and use the address of the first virtual machine
description block as input data address and also use the correct
length.

commit da8fd820f389a0e29080b14c61bf5cf1d8ef5ca1 upstream.

Commit bcfcbb6bae64 ("s390: add system information as device
randomness") intended to add some virtual machine specific information
to the randomness pool.

Unfortunately it uses the page allocator before it is ready to use. In
result the page allocator always returns NULL and the setup_randomness
function never adds anything to the randomness pool.

To fix this use memblock_alloc and memblock_free instead.

commit fb94a687d96c570d46332a4a890f1dcb7310e643 upstream.

Return a sensible value if TASK_SIZE if called from a kernel thread.

This gets us around an issue with copy_mount_options that does a magic
size calculation "TASK_SIZE - (unsigned long)data" while in a kernel
thread and data pointing to kernel space.
