The specified locations are not right. Fix the wildcard logic
to point to the correct directories.
Without that, get-maintainer won't get things right:

Those files got a manufacturer's name prepended and were moved around.
Adjust their references accordingly.
Also, due those movements, Documentation/devicetree/bindings/video

A footnote should contain either a number, a reference or

If the test_printf module is loaded before the crng is initialized, the
plain 'p' tests will fail because the printed address will not be hashed
and the buffer will contain '(ptrval)' instead.
This patch adds a call to wait_for_random_bytes() before plain 'p' tests
to make sure the crng is initialized.

Commit e27be240df53 ("mm: memcg: make sure memory.events is uptodate
when waking pollers") converted most of memcg event counters to
per-memcg atomics, which made them less confusing for a user. The
"oom_kill" counter remained untouched, so now it behaves differently
than other counters (including "oom"). This adds nothing but confusion.
Let's fix this by adding the MEMCG_OOM_KILL event, and follow the
MEMCG_OOM approach.
This also removes a hack from count_memcg_event_mm(), introduced earlier
specially for the OOM_KILL counter.

Both smatch and coverity are reporting potential issues with spectre

ipc/sem.c:641 perform_atomic_semop_slow() warn: potential spectre issue 'sma->sems'
ipc/sem.c:721 perform_atomic_semop() warn: potential spectre issue 'sma->sems'
Avoid any possible speculation by using array_index_nospec() thus
ensuring the semnum value is bounded to [0, sma->sem_nsems). With the
exception of sem_lock() all of these are slowpaths.

KCOV is code coverage collection facility used, in particular, by
syzkaller system call fuzzer. There is some interest in using syzkaller
on arm devices. So port KCOV to arm.
On implementation level this merely declares that KCOV is supported and
disables instrumentation of 3 special cases. Reasons for disabling are
commented in code.
Tested with qemu-system-arm/vexpress-a15.

During a context switch, we first switch_mm() to the next task's mm,
then switch_to() that new task. This means that vmalloc'd regions which
had previously been faulted in can transiently disappear in the context
of the prev task.
Functions instrumented by KCOV may try to access a vmalloc'd kcov_area
during this window, and as the fault handling code is instrumented, this
results in a recursive fault.
We must avoid accessing any kcov_area during this window. We can do so
with a new flag in kcov_mode, set prior to switching the mm, and cleared
once the new task is live. Since task_struct::kcov_mode isn't always a
specific enum kcov_mode value, this is made an unsigned int.
The manipulation is hidden behind kcov_{prepare,finish}_switch() helpers,
which are empty for !CONFIG_KCOV kernels.
The code uses macros because I can't use static inline functions without a
circular include dependency between <linux/sched.h> and <linux/kcov.h>,
since the definition of task_struct uses things defined in <linux/kcov.h>

On many architectures the vmalloc area is lazily faulted in upon first
access. This is problematic for KCOV, as __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc
accesses the (vmalloc'd) kcov_area, and fault handling code may be
instrumented. If an access to kcov_area faults, this will result in
mutual recursion through the fault handling code and
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), eventually leading to stack corruption
and/or overflow.
We can avoid this by faulting in the kcov_area before
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() is permitted to access it. Once it has been
faulted in, it will remain present in the process page tables, and will
not fault again.

Patch series "kcov: fix unexpected faults".
These patches fix a few issues where KCOV code could trigger recursive
faults, discovered while debugging a patch enabling KCOV for arch/arm:
* On CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels, there's a small race window where
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() can see a bogus kcov_area.
* Lazy faulting of the vmalloc area can cause mutual recursion between
fault handling code and __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc().
* During the context switch, switching the mm can cause the kcov_area to
be transiently unmapped.
These are prerequisites for enabling KCOV on arm, but the issues
themsevles are generic -- we just happen to avoid them by chance rather
than design on x86-64 and arm64.
This patch (of 3):
For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, some C code may execute before or
after the interrupt handler, while the hardirq count is zero. In these
cases, in_task() can return true.
A task can be interrupted in the middle of a KCOV_DISABLE ioctl while it
resets the task's kcov data via kcov_task_init(). Instrumented code
executed during this period will call __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), and as
in_task() returns true, will inspect t->kcov_mode before trying to write
to t->kcov_area.
In kcov_init_task() we update t->kcov_{mode,area,size} with plain stores,
which may be re-ordered, torn, etc. Thus __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() may
see bogus values for any of these fields, and may attempt to write to
memory which is not mapped.
Let's avoid this by using WRITE_ONCE() to set t->kcov_mode, with a
barrier() to ensure this is ordered before we clear t->kov_{area,size}.
This ensures that any code execute while kcov_init_task() is preempted
will either see valid values for t->kcov_{area,size}, or will see that
t->kcov_mode is KCOV_MODE_DISABLED, and bail out without touching
t->kcov_area.

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.

On the quest to remove all VLAs from the kernel[1] this adjusts several
cases where allocation is made after an array of structures that points
back into the allocation. The allocations are changed to perform
explicit calculations instead of using a Variable Length Array in a
structure.
Additionally, this lets Clang compile this code now, since Clang does
not support VLAIS[2].

Nobody ever tried to self destruct by unmapping whole address space at
once:
munmap((void *)0, (1ULL << 47) - 4096);
Doing this produces 2 warnings for zero-length vmalloc allocations:
a.out[1353]: segfault at 7f80bcc4b757 ip 00007f80bcc4b757 sp 00007fff683939b8 error 14
a.out: vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null)
...
a.out: vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null)
...
Fix is to switch to kvmalloc().
Steps to reproduce:
// vsyscall=none
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/resource.h>
int main(void)
{
setrlimit(RLIMIT_CORE, &(struct rlimit){RLIM_INFINITY, RLIM_INFINITY});
munmap((void *)0, (1ULL << 47) - 4096);
return 0;
}

If file size and FAT cluster chain is not matched (corrupted image), we
can hit BUG_ON(!phys) in __fat_get_block().
So, use fat_fs_error() instead.

Commit 5d1904204c99 ("mremap: fix race between mremap() and page
cleanning") fixed races between mremap and other operations for both
file-backed and anonymous mappings. The file-backed was the most
critical as it allowed the possibility that data could be changed on a
physical page after page_mkclean returned which could trigger data loss
or data integrity issues.
A customer reported that the cost of the TLBs for anonymous regressions
was excessive and resulting in a 30-50% drop in performance overall
since this commit on a microbenchmark. Unfortunately I neither have
access to the test-case nor can I describe what it does other than
saying that mremap operations dominate heavily.
This patch removes the LATENCY_LIMIT to handle TLB flushes on a PMD
boundary instead of every 64 pages to reduce the number of TLB
shootdowns by a factor of 8 in the ideal case. LATENCY_LIMIT was almost
certainly used originally to limit the PTL hold times but the latency
savings are likely offset by the cost of IPIs in many cases. This patch
is not reported to completely restore performance but gets it within an
acceptable percentage. The given metric here is simply described as
"higher is better".
Baseline that was known good
002: Metric: 91.05
004: Metric: 109.45
008: Metric: 73.08
016: Metric: 58.14
032: Metric: 61.09
064: Metric: 57.76
128: Metric: 55.43
Current
001: Metric: 54.98
002: Metric: 56.56
004: Metric: 41.22
008: Metric: 35.96
016: Metric: 36.45
032: Metric: 35.71
064: Metric: 35.73
128: Metric: 34.96
With patch
001: Metric: 61.43
002: Metric: 81.64
004: Metric: 67.92
008: Metric: 51.67
016: Metric: 50.47
032: Metric: 52.29
064: Metric: 50.01
128: Metric: 49.04
So for low threads, it's not restored but for larger number of threads,
it's closer to the "known good" baseline.
Using a different mremap-intensive workload that is not representative
of the real workload there is little difference observed outside of
noise in the headline metrics However, the TLB shootdowns are reduced by
11% on average and at the peak, TLB shootdowns were reduced by 21%.
Interrupts were sampled every second while the workload ran to get those
figures. It's known that the figures will vary as the
non-representative load is non-deterministic.
An alternative patch was posted that should have significantly reduced
the TLB flushes but unfortunately it does not perform as well as this
version on the customer test case. If revisited, the two patches can
stack on top of each other.

As a theoretical problem, dup_mmap() of an mm_struct with 60000+ vmas
can loop while potentially allocating memory, with mm->mmap_sem held for
write by current thread. This is bad if current thread was selected as
an OOM victim, for current thread will continue allocations using memory
reserves while OOM reaper is unable to reclaim memory.
As an actually observable problem, it is not difficult to make OOM
reaper unable to reclaim memory if the OOM victim is blocked at
i_mmap_lock_write() in this loop. Unfortunately, since nobody can
explain whether it is safe to use killable wait there, let's check for
SIGKILL before trying to allocate memory. Even without an OOM event,
there is no point with continuing the loop from the beginning if current
thread is killed.
I tested with debug printk(). This patch should be safe because we
already fail if security_vm_enough_memory_mm() or
kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) fails and exit_mmap() handles it.
