However, as commit

ipc/shm: Fix shmat mmap nil-page protection
The issue is described here, with a nice testcase:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192931
The problem is that shmat() calls do_mmap_pgoff() with MAP_FIXED, and
the address rounded down to 0. For the regular mmap case, the
protection mentioned above is that the kernel gets to generate the
address -- arch_get_unmapped_area() will always check for MAP_FIXED and
return that address. So by the time we do security_mmap_addr(0) things
get funky for shmat().
The testcase itself shows that while a regular user crashes, root will
not have a problem attaching a nil-page. There are two possible fixes
to this. The first, and which this patch does, is to simply allow root
to crash as well -- this is also regular mmap behavior, ie when hacking
up the testcase and adding mmap(... |MAP_FIXED). While this approach
is the safer option, the second alternative is to ignore SHM_RND if the
rounded address is 0, thus only having MAP_SHARED flags. This makes the
behavior of shmat() identical to the mmap() case. The downside of this
is obviously user visible, but does make sense in that it maintains
semantics after the round-down wrt 0 address and mmap.
Passes shm related ltp tests.

ipc/sem: add hysteresis
sysv sem has two lock modes: One with per-semaphore locks, one lock mode
with a single global lock for the whole array. When switching from the
per-semaphore locks to the global lock, all per-semaphore locks must be
scanned for ongoing operations.
The patch adds a hysteresis for switching from the global lock to the
per semaphore locks. This reduces how often the per-semaphore locks
must be scanned.
Compared to the initial patch, this is a simplified solution: Setting
USE_GLOBAL_LOCK_HYSTERESIS to 1 restores the current behavior.
In theory, a workload with exactly 10 simple sops and then one complex
op now scales a bit worse, but this is pure theory: If there is
concurrency, the it won't be exactly 10:1:10:1:10:1:... If there is no
concurrency, then there is no need for scalability.

ipc/sem.c: avoid using spin_unlock_wait()
a) The ACQUIRE in spin_lock() applies to the read, not to the store, at
least for powerpc. This forces to add a smp_mb() into the fast path.
b) The memory barrier provided by spin_unlock_wait() is right now arch
dependent.
Therefore: Use spin_lock()/spin_unlock() instead of spin_unlock_wait().
Advantage: faster single op semop calls(), observed +8.9% on x86. (the
other solution would be arch dependencies in ipc/sem).
Disadvantage: slower complex op semop calls, if (and only if) there are
no sleeping operations.
The next patch adds hysteresis, this further reduces the probability
that the slow path is used.

initramfs: finish fput() before accessing any binary from initramfs
Commit
4a9d4b024a31 ("switch fput to task_work_add") implements a
schedule_work() for completing fput(), but did not guarantee calling
__fput() after unpacking initramfs. Because of this, there is a
possibility that during boot a driver can see ETXTBSY when it tries to
load a binary from initramfs as fput() is still pending on that binary.
This patch makes sure that fput() is completed after unpacking initramfs
and removes the call to flush_delayed_fput() in kernel_init() which
happens very late after unpacking initramfs.

config: android-recommended: disable aio support
The aio interface adds substantial attack surface for a feature that's
not being exposed by Android at all. It's unlikely that anyone is using
the kernel feature directly either. This feature is rarely used even on
servers. The glibc POSIX aio calls really use thread pools. The lack
of widespread usage also means this is relatively poorly audited/tested.
The kernel's aio rarely provides performance benefits over using a
thread pool and is quite incomplete in terms of system call coverage
along with having edge cases where blocking can occur. Part of the
performance issue is the fact that it only supports direct io, not
buffered io. The existing API is considered fundamentally flawed and
it's unlikely it will be expanded, but rather replaced:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-aio&m=
145255815216051&w=2
Since ext4 encryption means no direct io support, kernel aio isn't even
going to work properly on Android devices using file-based encryption.

/proc/kcore: update physical address for kcore ram and text
Currently all the p_paddr of PT_LOAD headers are assigned to 0, which is
not true and could be misleading, since 0 is a valid physical address.
User space tools like makedumpfile needs to know physical address for
PT_LOAD segments of direct mapped regions. Therefore this patch updates
paddr for such regions. It also sets an invalid paddr (-1) for other
regions, so that user space tool can know whether a physical address
provided in PT_LOAD is correct or not.
I do not know why it was 0, which is a valid physical address. But
certainly, it might break some user space tools, and those need to be
fixed. For example, see following code from kexec-tools
kexec/kexec-elf.c:build_mem_phdrs()
if ((phdr->p_paddr + phdr->p_memsz) < phdr->p_paddr) {
/* The memory address wraps */
if (probe_debug) {
fprintf(stderr, "ELF address wrap around\n");
}
return -1;
}
We do not need to perform above check for an invalid physical address.
I think, kexec-tools and makedumpfile will need fixup. I already have
those fixup which will be sent upstream once this patch makes through.
Pro with this approach is that, it will help to calculate variable like
page_offset, phys_base from PT_LOAD even when they are randomized and
therefore will reduce many variable and version specific values in user
space tools.
Having an ASLR offset information can help to translate an identity
mapped virtual address to a physical address. But that would be an
additional field in PT_LOAD header structure and an arch dependent
value.
Moreover, sending a valid physical address like 0 does not seem right.
So, IMHO it is better to fix that and send valid physical address when
available (identity mapped).

autofs: take more care to not update last_used on path walk
GUI environments seem to be becoming more agressive at scanning
filesystems, to the point where autofs cannot expire mounts at all.
This is one key reason the update of the autofs dentry info last_used
field is done in the expire system when the dentry is seen to be in use.
But somewhere along the way instances of the update has crept back into
the autofs path walk functions which, with the more aggressive file
access patterns, is preventing expiration.
Changing the update in the path walk functions allows autofs to at least
make progress in spite of frequent immediate re-mounts from file
accesses.

kprobes: move kprobe declarations to asm-generic/kprobes.h
Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.
Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.
Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.
In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.
During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

While this problem has existed for a while, I wasn't able to trigger it

zswap: clear compressor or zpool param if invalid at init
If either the compressor and/or zpool param are invalid at boot, and
their default value is also invalid, set the param to the empty string
to indicate there is no compressor and/or zpool configured. This allows
users to check the sysfs interface to see which param needs changing.

platform/x86: intel_turbo_max_3: make it explicitly non-modular
The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig:config INTEL_TURBO_MAX_3
drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig: bool "Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 enumeration driver"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the couple traces of modular infrastructure use, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Also note that MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is a no-op for non-modular code.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
was (or is now) contained at the top of the file in the comments.
We do uncover some implicit includes during build coverage that

leds: class: Add new optional brightness_hw_changed attribute
Some LEDs may have their brightness level changed autonomously
(outside of kernel control) by hardware / firmware. This commit
adds support for an optional brightness_hw_changed attribute to
signal such changes to userspace (if a driver can detect them):
What: /sys/class/leds/<led>/brightness_hw_changed
Date: January 2017
KernelVersion: 4.11
Description:
Last hardware set brightness level for this LED. Some LEDs
may be changed autonomously by hardware/firmware. Only LEDs
where this happens and the driver can detect this, will
have this file.
This file supports poll() to detect when the hardware
changes the brightness.
Reading this file will return the last brightness level set
by the hardware, this may be different from the current
brightness.
Drivers which want to support this, simply add LED_BRIGHT_HW_CHANGED to
their flags field and call led_classdev_notify_brightness_hw_changed()
with the hardware set brightness when they detect a hardware / firmware
triggered brightness change.

lib: update LZ4 compressor module
Patch series "Update LZ4 compressor module", v7.
This patchset updates the LZ4 compression module to a version based on
LZ4 v1.7.3 allowing to use the fast compression algorithm aka LZ4 fast
which provides an "acceleration" parameter as a tradeoff between high
compression ratio and high compression speed.
We want to use LZ4 fast in order to support compression in lustre and
(mostly, based on that) investigate data reduction techniques in behalf
of storage systems.
Also, it will be useful for other users of LZ4 compression, as with LZ4
fast it is possible to enable applications to use fast and/or high
compression depending on the usecase. For instance, ZRAM is offering a
LZ4 backend and could benefit from an updated LZ4 in the kernel.

kernel by the new acceleration parameter, allowing to trade compression
ratio for more compression speed and vice versa.
LZ4_decompress_fast is the respective decompression method, featuring a
very fast decoder (multiple GB/s per core), able to reach RAM speed in
multi-core systems. The decompressor allows to decompress data
compressed with LZ4 fast as well as the LZ4 HC (high compression)
algorithm.
Also the useful functions LZ4_decompress_safe_partial and
LZ4_compress_destsize were added. The latter reverses the logic by
trying to compress as much data as possible from source to dest while
the former aims to decompress partial blocks of data.
A bunch of streaming functions were also added which allow
compressig/decompressing data in multiple steps (so called "streaming
mode").
The methods lz4_compress and lz4_decompress_unknownoutputsize are now
known as LZ4_compress_default respectivley LZ4_decompress_safe. The old
methods will be removed since there's no callers left in the code.

lib/test_sort.c: make it explicitly non-modular
The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
lib/Kconfig.debug:config TEST_SORT
lib/Kconfig.debug: bool "Array-based sort test"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the couple traces of modular infrastructure use, so that
when reading the code there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular case,
the init ordering becomes slightly earlier when we change it to use
subsys_initcall as done here. However, since it is a self contained
test, this shouldn't be an issue and subsys_initcall seems like a better
fit for this particular case.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag since that information is now
contained at the top of the file in the comments.

lib: add CONFIG_TEST_SORT to enable self-test of sort()
Along with the addition made to Kconfig.debug, the prior existing but
permanently disabled test function has been slightly refactored.
Patch has been tested using QEMU 2.1.2 with a .config obtained through
'make defconfig' (x86_64) and manually enabling the option.
