      Pull perf/ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
       "Dave Jones's trinity program was able to enable the function tracer
        from a normal user account via the perf syscall "perf_event_open()".
        When I was able to reproduce it with trinity, I was able to track down
        exactly how it happened.
      
        I discovered that the check for whether the function tracepoint should
        be activated or not was using the "perf_paranoid_kernel()" check which
        by default, lets the user continue.  The user should not by default be
        able to enable function tracing.
      
        The fix is to use "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" which will not let
        the user enable function tracing.  This is a security fix as normal
        users should never be allowed to enable the function tracer"

      Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
       - Some minor work bringing the Cobalt MIPS platforms in line with other
         MIPS platforms
       - Make vmlinux.32 and vmlinux.64 build messages less verbose
       - Always register the R4k clocksource when selected, the clock source's
         rating will decide if this or another clock source is actually going
         to be used
       - Drop support for the Cisco (formerly Scientific Atlanta) PowerTV
         platform.  There appears to be nobody left who cares and the USB
         driver went stale while waiting for years to be merged
       - Some cleanup of Loongson 2 related #ifdefery
       - Various minor cleanups
       - Major rework on all things related to tracing / ptrace on MIPS,
         including switching the MIPS ELF core dumper to regsets, enabling the
         entries for SIGSYS in struct siginfo for MIPS, enabling ftrace
         syscall trace points
       - Some more work to bring DECstation support code in line with other
         more modern code
       - Report the name of the detected CPU, not just its CP0 PrID value
       - Some more BCM 47xx and atheros ath79xx work

       "The bulk of the patches for the 3.13 merge window.
      
        Heiko spent quite a bit of work to improve the code generation for the
        kernel.  That includes the exploitation of the interlocked-access
        facility for the atomics and bitops implementation and the improvement
        for the -march and -mtune compiler settings.
      
        Another important change is the removal of the user_mode=home option,
        user processes now always run in primary space.  The storage keys are
        not initialized at system startup any more, with that the storage key
        removal work is complete.  For the PCI support the hibernation hooks
        have been implemented.

      perf/ftrace: Fix paranoid level for enabling function tracer · 12ae030d
      Steven Rostedt authored
      
      
      The current default perf paranoid level is "1" which has
      "perf_paranoid_kernel()" return false, and giving any operations that
      use it, access to normal users. Unfortunately, this includes function
      tracing and normal users should not be allowed to enable function
      tracing by default.
      
      The proper level is defined at "-1" (full perf access), which
      "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" will only give access to. Use that
      check instead for enabling function tracing.

      s390/mm,tlb: correct tlb flush on page table upgrade · 10607864
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      
      
      The IDTE instruction used to flush TLB entries for a specific address
      space uses the address-space-control element (ASCE) to identify
      affected TLB entries. The upgrade of a page table adds a new top
      level page table which changes the ASCE. The TLB entries associated
      with the old ASCE need to be flushed and the ASCE for the address space
      needs to be replaced synchronously on all CPUs which currently use it.
      The concept of a lazy ASCE update with an exception handler is broken.

      net: sctp: do not trigger BUG_ON in sctp_cmd_delete_tcb · 7926c1d5
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      Introduced in f9e42b85
      
       ("net: sctp: sideeffect: throw BUG if
      primary_path is NULL"), we intended to find a buggy assoc that's
      part of the assoc hash table with a primary_path that is NULL.
      However, we better remove the BUG_ON for now and find a more
      suitable place to assert for these things as Mark reports that
      this also triggers the bug when duplication cookie processing
      happens, and the assoc is not part of the hash table (so all
      good in this case). Such a situation can for example easily be
      reproduced by:
      
        tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio bands 2 priomap 1 1 1 1 1 1
        tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:2 handle 20: netem loss 20%
        tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1: prio 2 u32 match ip \
                  protocol 132 0xff match u8 0x0b 0xff at 32 flowid 1:2
      
      This drops 20% of COOKIE-ACK packets. After some follow-up
      discussion with Vlad we came to the conclusion that for now we
      should still better remove this BUG_ON() assertion, and come up
      with two follow-ups later on, that is, i) find a more suitable
      place for this assertion, and possibly ii) have a special
      allocator/initializer for such kind of temporary assocs.

      Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy

      evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t.

      Query network adapter info at mount time for debugging · c481e9fe
      Steve French authored
      
      
      When CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2 enabled query adapter info for debugging
      
      It is easy now in SMB3 to query the information about the server's
      network interfaces (and at least Windows 8 and above do this, if not
      other clients) there are some useful pieces of information you can get
      including:
      
      - all of the network interfaces that the server advertises (not just
      the one you are mounting over), and with SMB3 supporting multichannel
      this helps with more than just failover (also aggregating multiple
      sockets under one mount)
      
      - whether the adapter supports RSS (useful to know if you want to
      estimate whether setting up two or more socket connections to the same
      address is going to be faster due to RSS offload in the adapter)
      
      - whether the server supports RDMA
      
      - whether the server has IPv6 interfaces (if you connected over IPv4
      but prefer IPv6 e.g.)
      
      - what the link speed is (you might want to reconnect over a higher
      speed interface if available)
      
      (Of course we could also rerequest this on every mount cheaplly to the
      same server, as Windows apparently does, so we can update the adapter
      info on new mounts, and also on every reconnect if the network
      interface drops temporarily - so we don't have to rely on info from
      the first mount to this server)
      
      It is trivial to request this information - and certainly will be useful
      when we get to the point of doing multichannel (and eventually RDMA),
      but some of this (linkspeed etc.) info may help for debugging in
      the meantime.  Enable this request when CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2 is on
      (only for smb3 mounts since it is an SMB3 or later ioctl).

      Allow setting per-file compression via CIFS protocol · c7f508a9
      Steve French authored
      
      
      An earlier patch allowed setting the per-file compression flag
      
      "chattr +c filename"
      
      on an smb2 or smb3 mount, and also allowed lsattr to return
      whether a file on a cifs, or smb2/smb3 mount was compressed.
      
      This patch extends the ability to set the per-file
      compression flag to the cifs protocol, which uses a somewhat
      different IOCTL mechanism than SMB2, although the payload
      (the flags stored in the compression_state) are the same.

      Query File System Alignment · af6a12ea

      In SMB3 it is now possible to query the file system

      sector size and whether the underlying disk
      has no seek penalty (like SSD).
      
      Query this information at mount time for SMB3,
      and make it visible in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData
      for debugging purposes.
      
      This alignment information and preferred sector
      size info will be helpful for the copy offload
      patches to setup the right chunks in the CopyChunk
      requests.   Presumably the knowledge that the
      underlying disk is SSD could also help us
      make better readahead and writebehind
      decisions (something to look at in the future).

      On a signed smb session, remvoing a session off of the list before sending
      a logoff request results in server returning an error for lack of

      Never seen an error during smb logoff, so as per MS-SMB2 3.2.5.1,
      not sure how an error during logoff should be retried. So for now,
      if a server returns an error to a logoff request, log the error and

      cifs: Make big endian multiplex ID sequences monotonic on the wire · 3d378d3f
      Tim Gardner authored
      
      
      The multiplex identifier (MID) in the SMB header is only
      ever used by the client, in conjunction with PID, to match responses
      from the server. As such, the endianess of the MID is not important.
      However, When tracing packet sequences on the wire, protocol analyzers
      such as wireshark display MID as little endian. It is much more informative
      for the on-the-wire MID sequences to match debug information emitted by the
      CIFS driver.  Therefore, one should write and read MID in the SMB header
      assuming it is always little endian.
      
      Observed from wireshark during the protocol negotiation
      and session setup:
      
              Multiplex ID: 256
              Multiplex ID: 256
              Multiplex ID: 512
              Multiplex ID: 512
              Multiplex ID: 768
              Multiplex ID: 768
      
      After this patch on-the-wire MID values begin at 1 and increase monotonically.
      
      Introduce get_next_mid64() for the internal consumers that use the full 64 bit
      multiplex identifier.
      
      Introduce the helpers get_mid() and compare_mid() to make the endian
      translation clear.

      ARC: Incorrect mm reference used in vmalloc fault handler · 9c41f4ee
      Vineet Gupta authored
      A vmalloc fault needs to sync up PGD/PTE entry from init_mm to current
      task's "active_mm".  ARC vmalloc fault handler however was using mm.
      
      A vmalloc fault for non user task context (actually pre-userland, from
      init thread's open for /dev/console) caused the handler to deref NULL mm
      (for mm->pgd)
      
      The reasons it worked so far is amazing:
      
      1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD.
         In SMP that MMU register is repurposed hence need for mm pointer deref.
      
      2. In pre-3.12 SMP kernel, the problem triggering vmalloc didn't exist in
         pre-userland code path - it was introduced with commit 20bafb3d

      ====================
      1) Fix a possible race on ipcomp scratch buffers because
         of too early enabled siftirqs. From Michal Kubecek.
      
      2) The current xfrm garbage collector threshold is too small
         for some workloads, resulting in bad performance on these
         workloads. Increase the threshold from 1024 to 32768.
      
      3) Some codepaths might not have a dst_entry attached to the
         skb when calling xfrm_decode_session(). So add a check
         to prevent a null pointer dereference in this case.

      scripts/kallsyms: filter symbols not in kernel address space · f6537f2f
      Ming Lei authored
      This patch uses CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET to filter symbols which
      are not in kernel address space because these symbols are
      generally for generating code purpose and can't be run at
      kernel mode, so we needn't keep them in /proc/kallsyms.
      
      For example, on ARM there are some symbols which may be
      linked in relocatable code section, then perf can't parse
      symbols any more from /proc/kallsyms, this patch fixes the
      problem (introduced b9b32bf7
      
      )
