<content type='text'>
commit da360299b6734135a5f66d7db458dcc7801c826a upstream.

This fixes a compile problem of some user space applications by not
including linux/libc-compat.h in uapi/if_ether.h.

linux/libc-compat.h checks which "features" the header files, included
from the libc, provide to make the Linux kernel uapi header files only
provide no conflicting structures and enums. If a user application mixes
kernel headers and libc headers it could happen that linux/libc-compat.h
gets included too early where not all other libc headers are included
yet. Then the linux/libc-compat.h would not prevent all the
redefinitions and we run into compile problems.
This patch removes the include of linux/libc-compat.h from
uapi/if_ether.h to fix the recently introduced case, but not all as this
is more or less impossible.

It is no problem to do the check directly in the if_ether.h file and not
in libc-compat.h as this does not need any fancy glibc header detection
as glibc never provided struct ethhdr and should define
__UAPI_DEF_ETHHDR by them self when they will provide this.

The following test program did not compile correctly any more:

#include &lt;linux/if_ether.h&gt;
#include &lt;netinet/in.h&gt;
#include &lt;linux/in.h&gt;

int main(void)
{
	return 0;
}

Commit d0a144f12a7c upstream.

As we're about to trigger a PSCI version explosion, it doesn't
hurt to introduce a PSCI_VERSION helper that is going to be
used everywhere.

The new firmware interfaces for branch prediction behaviour changes
are transparently available for the guest. Nevertheless, there is
new state attached that should be migrated and properly resetted.
Provide a mechanism for handling reset, migration and VSIE.

<content type='text'>
This adds a new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR, that gives userspace
information about the underlying machine's level of vulnerability
to the recently announced vulnerabilities CVE-2017-5715,
CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5754, and whether the machine provides
instructions to assist software to work around the vulnerabilities.

The ioctl returns two u64 words describing characteristics of the
CPU and required software behaviour respectively, plus two mask
words which indicate which bits have been filled in by the kernel,
for extensibility.  The bit definitions are the same as for the
new H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS hypercall.

There is also a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR, which
indicates whether the new ioctl is available.

This reverts commit ceaa001a170e43608854d5290a48064f57b565ed.

The OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_ERSPAN_OPTS attr should be designed
as a nested attribute to support all ERSPAN v1 and v2's fields.
The current attr is a be32 supporting only one field.  Thus, this
patch reverts it and later patch will redo it using nested attr.

Musl provides its own ethhdr struct definition. Add a guard to prevent
its definition of the appropriate musl header has already been included.

glibc does not implement this header, but when glibc will implement this
they can just define __UAPI_DEF_ETHHDR 0 to make it work with the
kernel.

<title>uapi libc compat: add fallback for unsupported libcs</title>
<updated>2018-01-03T15:52:47Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=c0bace798436bca0fdc221ff61143f1376a9c3de'/>
<id>urn:sha1:c0bace798436bca0fdc221ff61143f1376a9c3de</id>
<content type='text'>
libc-compat.h aims to prevent symbol collisions between uapi and libc
headers for each supported libc. This requires continuous coordination
between them.

The goal of this commit is to improve the situation for libcs (such as
musl) which are not yet supported and/or do not wish to be explicitly
supported, while not affecting supported libcs. More precisely, with
this commit, unsupported libcs can request the suppression of any
specific uapi definition by defining the correspondings _UAPI_DEF_*
macro as 0. This can fix symbol collisions for them, as long as the
libc headers are included before the uapi headers. Inclusion in the
other order is outside the scope of this commit.

All infrastructure in order to enable this fallback for unsupported
libcs is already in place, except that libc-compat.h unconditionally
defines all _UAPI_DEF_* macros to 1 for all unsupported libcs so that
any previous definitions are ignored. In order to fix this, this commit
merely makes these definitions conditional.

This commit together with the musl libc commit

http://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/commit/?id=04983f2272382af92eb8f8838964ff944fbb8258

fixes for example the following compiler errors when &lt;linux/in6.h&gt; is
included after musl's &lt;netinet/in.h&gt;:

./linux/in6.h:32:8: error: redefinition of 'struct in6_addr'
./linux/in6.h:49:8: error: redefinition of 'struct sockaddr_in6'
./linux/in6.h:59:8: error: redefinition of 'struct ipv6_mreq'

The comments referencing glibc are still correct, but this file is not
only used for glibc any more.

nft_ct exposes this bit to userspace.  This used to be

  #define NF_CT_STATE_UNTRACKED_BIT              (1 &lt;&lt; (IP_CT_NUMBER + 1))
  (IP_CT_NUMBER is 5, so this was 0x40)

.. but this got changed to 8 (0x100) when the untracked object got removed.
Replace this with a literal 6 to prevent further incompatible changes
in case IP_CT_NUMBER ever increases.
