2013-05-07Wrong asm register contraints in the kvm implementationStephan Schreiber
commit de53e9caa4c6149ef4a78c2f83d7f5b655848767 upstream. The Linux Kernel contains some inline assembly source code which has wrong asm register constraints in arch/ia64/kvm/vtlb.c. I observed this on Kernel 3.2.35 but it is also true on the most recent Kernel 3.9-rc1. File arch/ia64/kvm/vtlb.c: u64 guest_vhpt_lookup(u64 iha, u64 *pte) { u64 ret; struct thash_data *data; data = __vtr_lookup(current_vcpu, iha, D_TLB); if (data != NULL) thash_vhpt_insert(current_vcpu, data->page_flags, data->itir, iha, D_TLB); asm volatile ( "rsm psr.ic|psr.i;;" "srlz.d;;" "ld8.s r9=[%1];;" "tnat.nz p6,p7=r9;;" "(p6) mov %0=1;" "(p6) mov r9=r0;" "(p7) extr.u r9=r9,0,53;;" "(p7) mov %0=r0;" "(p7) st8 [%2]=r9;;" "ssm psr.ic;;" "srlz.d;;" "ssm psr.i;;" "srlz.d;;" : "=r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory"); return ret; } The list of output registers is : "=r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory"); The constraint "=r" means that the GCC has to maintain that these vars are in registers and contain valid info when the program flow leaves the assembly block (output registers). But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used as input registers. Input registers are iha, pte on the example. If the predicate p7 is true, the 8th assembly instruction "(p7) mov %0=r0;" is the first one which writes to a register which is maintained by the register constraints; it sets %0. %0 means the first register operand; it is ret here. This instruction might overwrite the %2 register (pte) which is needed by the next instruction: "(p7) st8 [%2]=r9;;" Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it uses and how it optimizes the code. The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in arch/ia64/kvm/vtlb.c. The register constraints should be : "=&r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory"); The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place this output register in. This is Debian bug#702639 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=702639). The patch is applicable on Kernel 3.9-rc1, 3.2.35 and many other versions.

2013-05-07Wrong asm register contraints in the futex implementationStephan Schreiber
commit 136f39ddc53db3bcee2befbe323a56d4fbf06da8 upstream. The Linux Kernel contains some inline assembly source code which has wrong asm register constraints in arch/ia64/include/asm/futex.h. I observed this on Kernel 3.2.23 but it is also true on the most recent Kernel 3.9-rc1. File arch/ia64/include/asm/futex.h: static inline int futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr, u32 oldval, u32 newval) { if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, uaddr, sizeof(u32))) return -EFAULT; { register unsigned long r8 __asm ("r8"); unsigned long prev; __asm__ __volatile__( " mf;; \n" " mov %0=r0 \n" " mov ar.ccv=%4;; \n" "[1:] cmpxchg4.acq %1=[%2],%3,ar.ccv \n" " .xdata4 \"__ex_table\", 1b-., 2f-. \n" "[2:]" : "=r" (r8), "=r" (prev) : "r" (uaddr), "r" (newval), "rO" ((long) (unsigned) oldval) : "memory"); *uval = prev; return r8; } } The list of output registers is : "=r" (r8), "=r" (prev) The constraint "=r" means that the GCC has to maintain that these vars are in registers and contain valid info when the program flow leaves the assembly block (output registers). But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used as input registers. Input registers are uaddr, newval, oldval on the example. The second assembly instruction " mov %0=r0 \n" is the first one which writes to a register; it sets %0 to 0. %0 means the first register operand; it is r8 here. (The r0 is read-only and always 0 on the Itanium; it can be used if an immediate zero value is needed.) This instruction might overwrite one of the other registers which are still needed. Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it uses and how it optimizes the code. The objdump utility can give us disassembly. The futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() function is inline, so we have to look for a module that uses the funtion. This is the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() function in kernel/futex.c: static int cmpxchg_futex_value_locked(u32 *curval, u32 __user *uaddr, u32 uval, u32 newval) { int ret; pagefault_disable(); ret = futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(curval, uaddr, uval, newval); pagefault_enable(); return ret; } Now the disassembly.

This is wrong. What happened here is what I explained above: An input register is overwritten which is still needed. The register operand constraints in futex.h are wrong. (The problem doesn't occur when the Kernel is compiled with GCC 4.6.) The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in futex.h. The code after patching of it: static inline int futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr, u32 oldval, u32 newval) { if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, uaddr, sizeof(u32))) return -EFAULT; { register unsigned long r8 __asm ("r8") = 0; unsigned long prev; __asm__ __volatile__( " mf;; \n" " mov ar.ccv=%4;; \n" "[1:] cmpxchg4.acq %1=[%2],%3,ar.ccv \n" " .xdata4 \"__ex_table\", 1b-., 2f-. \n" "[2:]" : "+r" (r8), "=&r" (prev) : "r" (uaddr), "r" (newval), "rO" ((long) (unsigned) oldval) : "memory"); *uval = prev; return r8; } } I also initialized the 'r8' var with the C programming language. The _asm qualifier on the definition of the 'r8' var forces GCC to use the r8 processor register for it. I don't believe that we should use inline assembly for zeroing out a local variable. The constraint is "+r" (r8) what means that it is both an input register and an output register. Note that the page fault handler will modify the r8 register which will be the return value of the function. The real fix is "=&r" (prev) The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place this output register in.

2013-05-07Fix initialization of CMCI/CMCP interruptsTony Luck
commit d303e9e98fce56cdb3c6f2ac92f626fc2bd51c77 upstream. Back 2010 during a revamp of the irq code some initializations were moved from ia64_mca_init() to ia64_mca_late_init() in commit c75f2aa13f5b268aba369b5dc566088b5194377c Cannot use register_percpu_irq() from ia64_mca_init() But this was hideously wrong. First of all these initializations are now down far too late. Specifically after all the other cpus have been brought up and initialized their own CMC vectors from smp_callin(). Also ia64_mca_late_init() may be called from any cpu so the line: ia64_mca_cmc_vector_setup(); /* Setup vector on BSP */ is generally not executed on the BSP, and so the CMC vector isn't setup at all on that processor. Make use of the arch_early_irq_init() hook to get this code executed at just the right moment: not too early, not too late.

Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor the IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a hardware erratum. The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The conflict is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is deleted in the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so solve the conflict.

All architectures have CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE __ARCH_WANT_SYS_EXECVE None of them have __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE and there are only two callers of kernel_execve() (which is a trivial wrapper for do_execve() now) left.

This will inevitably disturb workloads that were in some sort of borderline balancing state or unstable equilibrium, so an eye has to be kept on regressions. For that reason the new load average is only limited to group scheduling (shares distribution) at the moment (which was also hurting the most from the prior, crude weight calculation and whose scheduling quality wins most from this change) - but we plan to extend this to regular SMP balancing as well in the future, which will simplify and speed up things a bit.
