While debugging a problem, I thought that using
cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot() to restore CR4.PCIDE would be
helpful. It turns out to be counterproductive.
Add a comment documenting how this works.

When Linux brings a CPU down and back up, it switches to init_mm and then
loads swapper_pg_dir into CR3. With PCID enabled, this has the side effect
of masking off the ASID bits in CR3.
This can result in some confusion in the TLB handling code. If we
bring a CPU down and back up with any ASID other than 0, we end up
with the wrong ASID active on the CPU after resume. This could
cause our internal state to become corrupt, although major
corruption is unlikely because init_mm doesn't have any user pages.
More obviously, if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y, we'll trip over an assertion
in the next context switch. The result of *that* is a failure to
resume from suspend with probability 1 - 1/6^(cpus-1).
Fix it by reinitializing cpu_tlbstate on resume and CPU bringup.

Introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK semantics, which result in a VMA being empty
in the child process after fork. This differs from MADV_DONTFORK in one
important way.
If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_WIPEONFORK, it will get
zeroes. The address ranges are still valid, they are just empty.
If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_DONTFORK, it will get a
segmentation fault, since those address ranges are no longer valid in
the child after fork.
Since MADV_DONTFORK also seems to be used to allow very large programs
to fork in systems with strict memory overcommit restrictions, changing
the semantics of MADV_DONTFORK might break existing programs.
MADV_WIPEONFORK only works on private, anonymous VMAs.
The use case is libraries that store or cache information, and want to
know that they need to regenerate it in the child process after fork.
Examples of this would be:
- systemd/pulseaudio API checks (fail after fork) (replacing a getpid
check, which is too slow without a PID cache)
- PKCS#11 API reinitialization check (mandated by specification)
- glibc's upcoming PRNG (reseed after fork)
- OpenSSL PRNG (reseed after fork)
The security benefits of a forking server having a re-inialized PRNG in
every child process are pretty obvious. However, due to libraries
having all kinds of internal state, and programs getting compiled with
many different versions of each library, it is unreasonable to expect
calling programs to re-initialize everything manually after fork.
A further complication is the proliferation of clone flags, programs
bypassing glibc's functions to call clone directly, and programs calling
unshare, causing the glibc pthread_atfork hook to not get called.
It would be better to have the kernel take care of this automatically.
The patch also adds MADV_KEEPONFORK, to undo the effects of a prior
MADV_WIPEONFORK.
This is similar to the OpenBSD minherit syscall with MAP_INHERIT_ZERO:

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time (again) cpufreq gets the majority of changes which mostly
are driver updates (including a major consolidation of intel_pstate),
some schedutil governor modifications and core cleanups.
There also are some changes in the system suspend area, mostly related
to diagnostics and debug messages plus some renames of things related
to suspend-to-idle. One major change here is that suspend-to-idle is
now going to be preferred over S3 on systems where the ACPI tables
indicate to do so and provide requsite support (the Low Power Idle S0
_DSM in particular). The system sleep documentation and the tools
related to it are updated too.
The rest is a few cpuidle changes (nothing major), devfreq updates,
generic power domains (genpd) framework updates and a few assorted
modifications elsewhere.
Specifics:
- Drop the P-state selection algorithm based on a PID controller from
intel_pstate and make it use the same P-state selection method
(based on the CPU load) for all types of systems in the active mode
(Rafael Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Rework the cpufreq core and governors to make it possible to take
cross-CPU utilization updates into account and modify the schedutil
governor to actually do so (Viresh Kumar).
- Clean up the handling of transition latency information in the
cpufreq core and untangle it from the information on which drivers
cannot do dynamic frequency switching (Viresh Kumar).
- Add support for new SoCs (MT2701/MT7623 and MT7622) to the mediatek
cpufreq driver and update its DT bindings (Sean Wang).
- Modify the cpufreq dt-platdev driver to autimatically create
cpufreq devices for the new (v2) Operating Performance Points (OPP)
DT bindings and update its whitelist of supported systems (Viresh
Kumar, Shubhrajyoti Datta, Marc Gonzalez, Khiem Nguyen, Finley
Xiao).
- Add support for Ux500 to the cpufreq-dt driver and drop the
obsolete dbx500 cpufreq driver (Linus Walleij, Arnd Bergmann).
- Add new SoC (R8A7795) support to the cpufreq rcar driver (Khiem
Nguyen).
- Fix and clean up assorted issues in the cpufreq drivers and core
(Arvind Yadav, Christophe Jaillet, Colin Ian King, Gustavo Silva,
Julia Lawall, Leonard Crestez, Rob Herring, Sudeep Holla).
- Update the IO-wait boost handling in the schedutil governor to make
it less aggressive (Joel Fernandes).
- Rework system suspend diagnostics to make it print fewer messages
to the kernel log by default, add a sysfs knob to allow more
suspend-related messages to be printed and add Low Power S0 Idle
constraints checks to the ACPI suspend-to-idle code (Rafael
Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Prefer suspend-to-idle over S3 on ACPI-based systems with the
ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0 flag set and the Low Power Idle S0 _DSM
interface present in the ACPI tables (Rafael Wysocki).
- Update documentation related to system sleep and rename a number of
items in the code to make it cleare that they are related to
suspend-to-idle (Rafael Wysocki).
- Export a variable allowing device drivers to check the target
system sleep state from the core system suspend code (Florian
Fainelli).
- Clean up the cpuidle subsystem to handle the polling state on x86
in a more straightforward way and to use %pOF instead of full_name
(Rafael Wysocki, Rob Herring).
- Update the devfreq framework to fix and clean up a few minor issues
(Chanwoo Choi, Rob Herring).
- Extend diagnostics in the generic power domains (genpd) framework
and clean it up slightly (Thara Gopinath, Rob Herring).
- Fix and clean up a couple of issues in the operating performance
points (OPP) framework (Viresh Kumar, Waldemar Rymarkiewicz).
- Add support for RV1108 to the rockchip-io Adaptive Voltage Scaling
(AVS) driver (David Wu).

The ARM-ARM has two bits in the ESR/HSR relevant to external aborts.
A range of {I,D}FSC values (of which bit 5 is always set) and bit 9 'EA'
which provides:
> an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED classification of External Aborts.
This bit is in addition to the {I,D}FSC range, and has an implementation
defined meaning. KVM should always ignore this bit when handling external
aborts from a guest.
Remove the ESR_ELx_EA definition and rewrite its helper
kvm_vcpu_dabt_isextabt() to check the {I,D}FSC range. This merges
kvm_vcpu_dabt_isextabt() and the recently added is_abort_sea() helper.

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support
The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
hardware features of x86 CPUs:
- Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)
Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
default.
(By Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
decrypt) as well.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
by default.
(By Tom Lendacky)
- Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
switch mm's.
(By Andy Lutomirski)
All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
are all enabled in v4.14 at once"

The alpha/marvel code currently implements an irq_chip for handling
interrupts; due to how irq_chip handling is done, it's necessary for the
irq_chip methods to be invoked from hardirq context, even on a a
real-time kernel. Because the spinlock_t type becomes a "sleeping"
spinlock w/ RT kernels, it is not suitable to be used with irq_chips.
A quick audit of the operations under the lock reveal that they do only
minimal, bounded work, and are therefore safe to do under a raw spinlock.

Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Introduce the ORC unwinder, which can be enabled via
CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER=y.
The ORC unwinder is a lightweight, Linux kernel specific debuginfo
implementation, which aims to be DWARF done right for unwinding.
Objtool is used to generate the ORC unwinder tables during build, so
the data format is flexible and kernel internal: there's no
dependency on debuginfo created by an external toolchain.
The ORC unwinder is almost two orders of magnitude faster than the
(out of tree) DWARF unwinder - which is important for perf call graph
profiling. It is also significantly simpler and is coded defensively:
there has not been a single ORC related kernel crash so far, even
with early versions. (knock on wood!)
But the main advantage is that enabling the ORC unwinder allows
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS to be turned off - which speeds up the kernel
measurably:
With frame pointers disabled, GCC does not have to add frame pointer
instrumentation code to every function in the kernel. The kernel's
.text size decreases by about 3.2%, resulting in better cache
utilization and fewer instructions executed, resulting in a broad
kernel-wide speedup. Average speedup of system calls should be
roughly in the 1-3% range - measurements by Mel Gorman [1] have shown
a speedup of 5-10% for some function execution intense workloads.
The main cost of the unwinder is that the unwinder data has to be
stored in RAM: the memory cost is 2-4MB of RAM, depending on kernel
config - which is a modest cost on modern x86 systems.
Given how young the ORC unwinder code is it's not enabled by default
- but given the performance advantages the plan is to eventually make
it the default unwinder on x86.
See Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for more details.
