commit cb09cad44f07044d9810f18f6f9a6a6f3771f979 upstream.
Probably a leftover from the early days of self-patching, p6nops
are marked __initconst_or_module, which causes them to be
discarded in a non-modular kernel. If something later triggers
patching, it will overwrite kernel code with garbage.

commit c6fd893da927c6cefb2ece22402765379921a834 upstream.
Clear AVX, AVX2 features along with clearing XSAVE feature bits,
as part of the parsing "noxsave" parameter.
Fixes the kernel boot panic with "noxsave" boot parameter.
We could have checked cpu_has_osxsave along with cpu_has_avx etc, but Peter
mentioned clearing the feature bits will be better for uses like
static_cpu_has() etc.

commit bad9ac2d7f878a31cf1ae8c1ee3768077d222bcb upstream.
Current implementation simply ignores attribute flags. Thus, there is
no notification to userland of unsupported features. Check syscall's
attribute flags to let userland know if a feature is supported by the
kernel. This is also needed to distinguish between future kernels what
might support a feature.

commit 36bf50d7697be18c6bfd0401e037df10bff1e573 upstream.
This issue was recently observed on an AMD C-50 CPU where a patch of
maximum size was applied.
Commit be62adb49294 ("x86, microcode, AMD: Simplify ucode verification")
added current_size in get_matching_microcode(). This is calculated as
size of the ucode patch + 8 (ie. size of the header). Later this is
compared against the maximum possible ucode patch size for a CPU family.
And of course this fails if the patch has already maximum size.

commit d6250a3f12edb3a86db9598ffeca3de8b4a219e9 upstream.
The Intel case falls through into the generic case which then changes
the values. For cases like the P6 it doesn't do the right thing so
this seems to be a screwup.

commit 6751ed65dc6642af64f7b8a440a75563c8aab7ae upstream.
In commit dad1743e5993f1 ("x86/mce: Only restart instruction after machine
check recovery if it is safe") we fixed mce_notify_process() to force a
signal to the current process if it was not restartable (RIPV bit not
set in MCG_STATUS). But doing it here means that the process doesn't
get told the virtual address of the fault via siginfo_t->si_addr. This
would prevent application level recovery from the fault.
Make a new MF_MUST_KILL flag bit for memory_failure() et al. to use so
that we will provide the right information with the signal.

commit c9fc3f778a6a215ace14ee556067c73982b6d40f upstream.
Microcode reloading in a per-core manner is a very bad idea for both
major x86 vendors. And the thing is, we have such interface with which
we can end up with different microcode versions applied on different
cores of an otherwise homogeneous wrt (family,model,stepping) system.
So turn off the possibility of doing that per core and allow it only
system-wide.
This is a minimal fix which we'd like to see in stable too thus the
more-or-less arbitrary decision to allow system-wide reloading only on
the BSP:
$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/microcode/reload
...
and disable the interface on the other cores:
$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu23/microcode/reload
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
Also, allowing the reload only from one CPU (the BSP in
that case) doesn't allow the reload procedure to degenerate
into an O(n^2) deal when triggering reloads from all
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/microcode/reload sysfs nodes
simultaneously.
A more generic fix will follow.

vsyscall_seccomp introduced a dependency on __secure_computing. On

If a seccomp filter program is installed, older static binaries and
distributions with older libc implementations (glibc 2.13 and earlier)
that rely on vsyscall use will be terminated regardless of the filter
program policy when executing time, gettimeofday, or getcpu. This is
only the case when vsyscall emulation is in use (vsyscall=emulate is the
default).
This patch emulates system call entry inside a vsyscall=emulate by
populating regs->ax and regs->orig_ax with the system call number prior
to calling into seccomp such that all seccomp-dependencies function
normally. Additionally, system call return behavior is emulated in line
with other vsyscall entrypoints for the trace/trap cases.

It makes sense to label "Digital Thermal Sensor" as "DTS", but
unfortunately the string "dts" was already used for "Debug Store", and
/proc/cpuinfo is a user space ABI.
Therefore, rename this to "dtherm".
This conflict went into mainline via the hwmon tree without any x86
maintainer ack, and without any kind of hint in the subject.

The warning below triggers on AMD MCM packages because physical package
IDs on the cores of a _physical_ socket are the same. I.e., this field
says which CPUs belong to the same physical package.
However, the same two CPUs belong to two different internal, i.e.
"logical" nodes in the same physical socket which is reflected in the
CPU-to-node map on x86 with NUMA.
Which makes this check wrong on the above topologies so circumvent it.

This is the 2nd part of fix for kernel bugzilla 40002:
"IRQ 0 assigned to VGA"
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40002
The root cause is the buggy FW, whose ACPI tables assign the GSI 16
to 2 irqs 0 and 16(VGA), and the VGA is the right owner of GSI 16.
So add a quirk to ignore the irq0 overriding GSI 16 for the
FUJITSU SIEMENS AMILO PRO V2030 platform will solve this issue.

It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of

references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...]
Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler. The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.
To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.
Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't
have a clue what was going on.

Without this patch, applications with two different stack
regions (eg: native stack vs JIT stack) get truncated
callchains even when RBP chaining is present. GDB shows proper
stack traces and the frame pointer chaining is intact.
This patch disables the (fp < RSP) check, hoping that other checks
in the code save the day for us. In our limited testing, this
didn't seem to break anything.
In the long term, we could potentially have userspace advise
the kernel on the range of valid stack addresses, so we don't
spend a lot of time unwinding from bogus addresses.

validate_{event,group}() isn't really pretty either, so add a few
special cases to avoid modifying the event state.
The code is restructured to minimize the special case impact.

Commit 316ad248307fb ("sched/x86: Rewrite set_cpu_sibling_map()")
broke the booted_cores accounting.
The problem is that the booted_cores accounting needs all the
sibling links set up. So restore the second loop and add a comment as
to why its needed.
On qemu booted with -smp sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2;
Before:
$ grep cores /proc/cpuinfo
cpu cores : 2
cpu cores : 1
cpu cores : 4
cpu cores : 3
With the patch:
$ grep cores /proc/cpuinfo
cpu cores : 2
cpu cores : 2
cpu cores : 2
cpu cores : 2

In current Linux, percpu variable `vector_irq' is not cleared on
offlined cpus while disabling devices' irqs. If the cpu that has
the disabled irqs in vector_irq is hotplugged,
__setup_vector_irq() hits invalid irq vector and may crash.
This bug can be reproduced as following;
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online
# modprobe -r some_driver_using_interrupts # vector_irq@cpu7 uncleared
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online # kernel may crash
This patch fixes this bug by clearing vector_irq in
__clear_irq_vector() even if the cpu is offlined.

---[ end trace 320af5cb1cb60c5b ]---
The root cause seems to be the
default_send_IPI_mask_allbutself_phys() takes quite some time (I
measured it could be several ms) to complete sending NMIs to all
the other 23 CPUs, and for HZ=250/1000 system, the time is long
enough for a timer interrupt to happen, which will in turn
trigger to kick load balance to a stopped CPU and cause this
warning in native_smp_send_reschedule().
So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this
problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there
should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot
stage.
The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending
REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR
fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

Pull straggler x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
"Three groups of patches:
- EFI boot stub documentation and the ability to print error messages;
- Removal for PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 (obsolete interface which
should never have been ported, and the port is broken and
potentially dangerous.)
- ftrace stack corruption fixes. I'm not super-happy about the
technical implementation, but it is probably the least invasive in
the short term. In the future I would like a single method for
nesting the debug stack, however."

When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But
at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add
x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and
copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of
user_regs_struct instead.
Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to
avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to
kernel.

If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it
does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there
with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to
resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out
to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop.
It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume()
and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in
do_signal()...
Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm
glue takes care of that.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when
sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).
I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).
