When kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() attempts to allocate N objects from a percpu
freelist of length M, and N > M > 0, it will first remove the M elements
from the percpu freelist, then call ___slab_alloc() to allocate the next
element and repopulate the percpu freelist. ___slab_alloc() can re-enable
IRQs via allocate_slab(), so the TID must be bumped before ___slab_alloc()
to properly commit the freelist head change.
Fix it by unconditionally bumping c->tid when entering the slowpath.
When the uaccess .fixup section was renamed to .text.fixup, one case was
missed. Under ld.bfd, the orphaned section was moved close to .text
(since they share the "ax" bits), so things would work normally on
uaccess faults. Under ld.lld, the orphaned section was placed outside
the .text section, making it unreachable.
It is possible for a system with an ARMv8 timer to run a 32-bit kernel.
When this happens we will unconditionally have the vDSO code remove the
__vdso_gettimeofday and __vdso_clock_gettime symbols because
cntvct_functional() returns false since it does not match that
compatibility string.

The plain reads are outside of jh->b_state_lock critical section which result
in data races. Fix them by adding pairs of READ|WRITE_ONCE().
When queueing a signal, we increment both the users count of pending
signals (for RLIMIT_SIGPENDING tracking) and we increment the refcount
of the user struct itself (because we keep a reference to the user in
the signal structure in order to correctly account for it when freeing).
That turns out to be fairly expensive, because both of them are atomic
updates, and particularly under extreme signal handling pressure on big
machines, you can get a lot of cache contention on the user struct.
That can then cause horrid cacheline ping-pong when you do these
multiple accesses.
So change the reference counting to only pin the user for the _first_
pending signal, and to unpin it when the last pending signal is
dequeued. That means that when a user sees a lot of concurrent signal
queuing - which is the only situation when this matters - the only
atomic access needed is generally the 'sigpending' count update.
This was noticed because of a particularly odd timing artifact on a
dual-socket 96C/192T Cascade Lake platform: when you get into bad
contention, on that machine for some reason seems to be much worse when
the contention happens in the upper 32-byte half of the cacheline.
As a result, the kernel test robot will-it-scale 'signal1' benchmark had
an odd performance regression simply due to random alignment of the
'struct user_struct' (and pointed to a completely unrelated and
apparently nonsensical commit for the regression).
Avoiding the double increments (and decrements on the dequeueing side,
of course) makes for much less contention and hugely improved
performance on that will-it-scale microbenchmark.
Quoting Feng Tang:
"It makes a big difference, that the performance score is tripled! bump
from original 17000 to 54000. Also the gap between 5.0-rc6 and
5.0-rc6+Jiri's patch is reduced to around 2%"
[ The "2% gap" is the odd cacheline placement difference on that
platform: under the extreme contention case, the effect of which half
of the cacheline was hot was 5%, so with the reduced contention the
odd timing artifact is reduced too ]
It does help in the non-contended case too, but is not nearly as
noticeable.
The KS8851 requires that packet RX and TX are mutually exclusive.
Currently, the driver hopes to achieve this by disabling interrupt
from the card by writing the card registers and by disabling the
interrupt on the interrupt controller. This however is racy on SMP.
Replace this approach by expanding the spinlock used around the
ks_start_xmit() TX path to ks_irq() RX path to assure true mutual
exclusion and remove the interrupt enabling/disabling, which is
now not needed anymore. Furthermore, disable interrupts also in
ks_net_stop(), which was missing before.
Note that a massive improvement here would be to re-use the KS8851
driver approach, which is to move the TX path into a worker thread,
interrupt handling to threaded interrupt, and synchronize everything
with mutexes, but that would be a much bigger rework, for a separate
patch.

A transmission scheduling for an interface which is currently dropped by
batadv_iv_ogm_iface_disable could still be in progress. The B.A.T.M.A.N. V
is simply cancelling the workqueue item in an synchronous way but this is
not possible with B.A.T.M.A.N. IV because the OGM submissions are
intertwined.
Instead it has to stop submitting the OGM when it detect that the buffer
pointer is set to NULL.
