This adds a GPIO line ABI for getting name, label and a few select
flags from the kernel.
This hides the kernel internals and only tells userspace what it
may need to know: the different in-kernel consumers are masked
behind the flag "kernel" and that is all userspace needs to know.
However electric characteristics like active low, open drain etc
are reflected to userspace, as this is important information.
We provide information on all lines on all chips, later on we will
likely add a flag for the chardev consumer so we can filter and
display only the lines userspace actually uses in e.g. lsgpio,
but then we first need an ABI for userspace to grab and use
(get/set/select direction) a GPIO line.
Sample output from "lsgpio" on ux500:
GPIO chip: gpiochip7, "8011e000.gpio", 32 GPIO lines
line 0: unnamed unlabeled
line 1: unnamed unlabeled
(...)
line 25: unnamed "SFH7741 Proximity Sensor" [kernel output open-drain]
line 26: unnamed unlabeled
(...)

The gpio_chip label is useful for userspace to understand what
kind of GPIO chip it is dealing with. Let's store a copy of this
label in the gpio_device, add it to the struct passed to userspace
for GPIO_GET_CHIPINFO_IOCTL and modify lsgpio to show it.

mmapped netlink has a number of unresolved issues:
- TX zerocopy support had to be disabled more than a year ago via
commit 4682a0358639b29cf ("netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.")
because the content of the mmapped area can change after netlink
attribute validation but before message processing.
- RX support was implemented mainly to speed up nfqueue dumping packet
payload to userspace. However, since commit ae08ce0021087a5d812d2
("netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: zero copy support") we avoid one copy
with the socket-based interface too (via the skb_zerocopy helper).
The other problem is that skbs attached to mmaped netlink socket
behave different from normal skbs:
- they don't have a shinfo area, so all functions that use skb_shinfo()
(e.g. skb_clone) cannot be used.
- reserving headroom prevents userspace from seeing the content as
it expects message to start at skb->head.
See for instance
commit aa3a022094fa ("netlink: not trim skb for mmaped socket when dump").
- skbs handed e.g. to netlink_ack must have non-NULL skb->sk, else we
crash because it needs the sk to check if a tx ring is attached.
Also not obvious, leads to non-intuitive bug fixes such as 7c7bdf359
("netfilter: nfnetlink: use original skbuff when acking batches").
mmaped netlink also didn't play nicely with the skb_zerocopy helper
used by nfqueue and openvswitch. Daniel Borkmann fixed this via
commit 6bb0fef489f6 ("netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue
zero-copy")' but at the cost of also needing to provide remaining
length to the allocation function.
nfqueue also has problems when used with mmaped rx netlink:
- mmaped netlink doesn't allow use of nfqueue batch verdict messages.
Problem is that in the mmap case, the allocation time also determines
the ordering in which the frame will be seen by userspace (A
allocating before B means that A is located in earlier ring slot,
but this also means that B might get a lower sequence number then A
since seqno is decided later. To fix this we would need to extend the
spinlocked region to also cover the allocation and message setup which
isn't desirable.
- nfqueue can now be configured to queue large (GSO) skbs to userspace.
Queing GSO packets is faster than having to force a software segmentation
in the kernel, so this is a desirable option. However, with a mmap based
ring one has to use 64kb per ring slot element, else mmap has to fall back
to the socket path (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY) for all large packets.
To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink
support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to
handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element.

A protection key fault is very similar to any other access error.
There must be a VMA, etc... We even want to take the same action
(SIGSEGV) that we do with a normal access fault.
However, we do need to let userspace know that something is
different. We do this the same way what we did with SEGV_BNDERR
with Memory Protection eXtensions (MPX): define a new SEGV code:
SEGV_PKUERR.
We add a siginfo field: si_pkey that reveals to userspace which
protection key was set on the PTE that we faulted on. There is
no other easy way for userspace to figure this out. They could
parse smaps but that would be a bit cruel.
We share space with in siginfo with _addr_bnd. #BR faults from
MPX are completely separate from page faults (#PF) that trigger
from protection key violations, so we never need both at the same
time.
Note that _pkey is a 64-bit value. The current hardware only
supports 4-bit protection keys. We do this because there is
_plenty_ of space in _sigfault and it is possible that future
processors would support more than 4 bits of protection keys.
The x86 code to actually fill in the siginfo is in the next
patch.

Add a new interface for userspace to preallocate memory that can be
used with usbfs. This gives two primary benefits:
- Zerocopy; data no longer needs to be copied between the userspace
and the kernel, but can instead be read directly by the driver from
userspace's buffers. This works for all kinds of transfers (even if
nonsensical for control and interrupt transfers); isochronous also
no longer need to memset() the buffer to zero to avoid leaking kernel data.
- Once the buffers are allocated, USB transfers can no longer fail due to
memory fragmentation; previously, long-running programs could run into
problems finding a large enough contiguous memory chunk, especially on
embedded systems or at high rates.
Memory is allocated by using mmap() against the usbfs file descriptor,
and similarly deallocated by munmap(). Once memory has been allocated,
using it as pointers to a bulk or isochronous operation means you will
automatically get zerocopy behavior. Note that this also means you cannot
modify outgoing data until the transfer is complete. The same holds for
data on the same cache lines as incoming data; DMA modifying them at the
same time could lead to your changes being overwritten.
There's a new capability USBDEVFS_CAP_MMAP that userspace can query to see
if the running kernel supports this functionality, if just trying mmap() is
not acceptable.
Largely based on a patch by Markus Rechberger with some updates. The original
patch can be found at:

The userspace might need some sort of cache coherency management e.g. when CPU
and GPU domains are being accessed through dma-buf at the same time. To
circumvent this problem there are begin/end coherency markers, that forward
directly to existing dma-buf device drivers vfunc hooks. Userspace can make use
of those markers through the DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC ioctl. The sequence would be
used like following:
- mmap dma-buf fd
- for each drawing/upload cycle in CPU 1. SYNC_START ioctl, 2. read/write
to mmap area 3. SYNC_END ioctl. This can be repeated as often as you
want (with the new data being consumed by the GPU or say scanout device)
- munmap once you don't need the buffer any more
v2 (Tiago): Fix header file type names (u64 -> __u64)
v3 (Tiago): Add documentation. Use enum dma_buf_sync_flags to the begin/end
dma-buf functions. Check for overflows in start/length.
v4 (Tiago): use 2d regions for sync.
v5 (Tiago): forget about 2d regions (v4); use _IOW in DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC and
remove range information from struct dma_buf_sync.
v6 (Tiago): use __u64 structured padded flags instead enum. Adjust
documentation about the recommendation on using sync ioctls.
v7 (Tiago): Alex' nit on flags definition and being even more wording in the
doc about sync usage.
v9 (Tiago): remove useless is_dma_buf_file check. Fix sync.flags conditionals
and its mask order check. Add <linux/types.h> include in dma-buf.h.

Operations with the GENL_ADMIN_PERM flag fail permissions checks because
this flag means we call netlink_capable, which uses the init user ns.
Instead, let's introduce a new flag, GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM for operations
which should be allowed inside a user namespace.
The motivation for this is to be able to run openvswitch in unprivileged
containers. I've tested this and it seems to work, but I really have no
idea about the security consequences of this patch, so thoughts would be
much appreciated.
v2: use the GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag instead of a check in each function
v3: use separate ifs for UNS_ADMIN_PERM and ADMIN_PERM, instead of one
massive one

We have to migrate the program irq ilc and someday we will have to
specify the ilc without KVM trying to autodetect the value.
Let's reuse one of the spare fields in our program irq that should
always be set to 0 by user space. Because we also want to make use
of 0 ilcs ("not available"), we need a validity indicator.
If no valid ilc is given, we try to autodetect the ilc via the current
icptcode and icptstatus + parameter and store the valid ilc in the
irq structure.
This has a nice effect: QEMU's making use of KVM_S390_IRQ /
KVM_S390_SET_IRQ_STATE / KVM_S390_GET_IRQ_STATE for migration will
directly migrate the ilc without any changes.
Please note that we use bit 0 as validity and bit 1,2 for the ilc, so
by applying the ilc mask we directly get the ilen which is usually what
we work with.

A new chardev that is to be used for userspace GPIO access is
added in this patch. It is intended to gradually replace the
horribly broken sysfs ABI.
Using a chardev has many upsides:
- All operations are per-gpiochip, which is the actual
device underlying the GPIOs, making us tie in to the
kernel device model properly.
- Hotpluggable GPIO controllers can come and go, as this
kind of problem has been know to userspace for character
devices since ages, and if a gpiochip handle is held in
userspace we know we will break something, whereas the
sysfs is stateless.
- The one-value-per-file rule of sysfs is really hard to
maintain when you want to twist more than one knob at a time,
for example have in-kernel APIs to switch several GPIO
lines at the same time, and this will be possible to do
with a single ioctl() from userspace, saving a lot of
context switching.
We also need to add a new bus type for GPIO. This is
necessary for example for userspace coldplug, where sysfs is
traversed to find the boot-time device nodes and create the
character devices in /dev.
This new chardev ABI is *non* *optional* and can be counted
on to be present in the future, emphasizing the preference
of this ABI.
The ABI only implements one single ioctl() to get the name
and number of GPIO lines of a chip. Even this is debatable:
see it as a minimal example for review. This ABI shall be
ruthlessly reviewed and etched in stone.
The old /sys/class/gpio is still optional to compile in,
but will be deprecated.
Unique device IDs are created using IDR, which is overkill
and insanely scalable, but also well tested.

(DRM|O)_CLOEXEC making it difficult (maybe impossible) for userspace
to mmap() the resulting dma-buf even when this is supported by the
DRM driver.
It is trivial to relax the restriction and permit read/write access.
This is safe because the flags are seldom touched by drm; mostly they
are passed verbatim to dma_buf calls.
v3 (Tiago): removed unused flags variable from drm_prime_handle_to_fd_ioctl.

Q_GETNEXTQUOTA is exactly like Q_GETQUOTA, except that it
will return quota information for the id equal to or greater
than the id requested. In other words, if the requested id has
no quota, the command will return quota information for the
next higher id which does have a quota set. If no higher id
has an active quota, -ESRCH is returned.
This allows filesystems to do efficient iteration in kernelspace,
much like extN filesystems do in userspace when asked to report
all active quotas.
This does require a new data structure for userspace, as the
current structure does not include an ID for the returned quota
information.
Today, Ext4 with a hidden quota inode requires getpwent-style
iterations, and for systems which have i.e. LDAP backends,
this can be very slow, or even impossible if iteration is not
allowed in the configuration.

Q_XGETNEXTQUOTA is exactly like Q_XGETQUOTA, except that it
will return quota information for the id equal to or greater
than the id requested. In other words, if the requested id has
no quota, the command will return quota information for the
next higher id which does have a quota set. If no higher id

This allows filesystems to do efficient iteration in kernelspace,

The patch adds a d_id field to struct qc_dqblk so that we can
pass back the id of the quota which was found, and return it
to userspace.
Today, filesystems such as XFS require getpwent-style iterations,
and for systems which have i.e. LDAP backends, this can be very
slow, or even impossible if iteration is not allowed in the

Primary use case is a histogram array of latency
where bpf program computes the latency of block requests or other
events and stores histogram of latency into array of 64 elements.
All cpus are constantly running, so normal increment is not accurate,
bpf_xadd causes cache ping-pong and this per-cpu approach allows
fastest collision-free counters.

Introduce BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_HASH map type which is used to do
accurate counters without need to use BPF_XADD instruction which turned
out to be too costly for high-performance network monitoring.
In the typical use case the 'key' is the flow tuple or other long
living object that sees a lot of events per second.
bpf_map_lookup_elem() returns per-cpu area.
Example:
struct {
u32 packets;
u32 bytes;
} * ptr = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&map, &key);
/* ptr points to this_cpu area of the value, so the following
* increments will not collide with other cpus
*/
ptr->packets ++;
ptr->bytes += skb->len;
bpf_update_elem() atomically creates a new element where all per-cpu
values are zero initialized and this_cpu value is populated with
given 'value'.
Note that non-per-cpu hash map always allocates new element
and then deletes old after rcu grace period to maintain atomicity
of update. Per-cpu hash map updates element values in-place.

Background:
When performing a read on an instrument that is executing a function
that runs longer than the USB timeout the instrument may hang and
require a device reset to recover. The READ_STATUS_BYTE operation
always returns even when the instrument is busy permitting to poll
for the appropriate condition. This capability is referred to in
instrument application notes on synchronizing acquisitions for other
platforms.
