<title>seccomp/mips: change syscall_trace_enter() to use secure_computing()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0fe1ebf3f056d99ef4835dc5d88b9c3bb12e44c1</id>
<content type='text'>
arch/mips/Kconfig selects HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER so syscall_trace_enter()
can just use __secure_computing(NULL) and rely on populate_seccomp_data(sd)
and "sd == NULL" checks in __secure_computing(sd) paths.

With the change above syscall_trace_enter() can just use secure_computing()
and avoid #ifdef + test_thread_flag(TIF_SECCOMP). CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY is
not defined, so test_syscall_work(SECCOMP) will check TIF_SECCOMP.

<title>MIPS: scall: Save thread_info.syscall unconditionally on entry</title>

<content type='text'>
thread_info.syscall is used by syscall_get_nr to supply syscall nr
over a thread stack frame.

Previously, thread_info.syscall is only saved at syscall_trace_enter
when syscall tracing is enabled. However rest of the kernel code do
expect syscall_get_nr to be available without syscall tracing. The
previous design breaks collect_syscall.

Move saving process to syscall entry to fix it.

On architectures with delay slot, architecture level instruction
pointer (or program counter) in pt_regs may differ from where
exception was triggered.

Introduce exception_ip hook to invoke architecture code and determine
actual instruction pointer to the exception.

user_regset_copyin_ignore() always returns 0, so checking its result seems
pointless -- don't do this anymore...

Rename tracehook_report_syscall_{entry,exit} to
ptrace_report_syscall_{entry,exit} and place them in ptrace.h

There is no longer any generic tracehook infractructure so make
these ptrace specific functions ptrace specific.

<id>urn:sha1:e31cf2f4ca422ac9b14ecc4a1295b8977a20f812</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
 "We've got a reasonably broad set of audit patches for the v5.2 merge
  window, the highlights are below:

   - The biggest change, and the source of all the arch/* changes, is
     the patchset from Dmitry to help enable some of the work he is
     doing around PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO.

     To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
     stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
     proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
     agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
     just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).

   - We can now audit time/NTP adjustments.

   - We continue the work to connect associated audit records into a
     single event"

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.

This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going
to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(),
syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and
syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument.

The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6)
should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments
are.
