2013-04-05signal: Define __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER so we know whether to clear sa_restorerBen Hutchings
Vaguely based on upstream commit 574c4866e33d 'consolidate kernel-side struct sigaction declarations'. flush_signal_handlers() needs to know whether sigaction::sa_restorer is defined, not whether SA_RESTORER is defined. Define the __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER macro to indicate this.

2013-04-05xen-pciback: notify hypervisor about devices intended to be assigned to guestsJan Beulich
commit 909b3fdb0dd4f3db07b2d75425a00a2adb551383 upstream. For MSI-X capable devices the hypervisor wants to write protect the MSI-X table and PBA, yet it can't assume that resources have been assigned to their final values at device enumeration time. Thus have pciback do that notification, as having the device controlled by it is a prerequisite to assigning the device to guests anyway. This is the kernel part of hypervisor side commit 4245d33 ("x86/MSI: add mechanism to fully protect MSI-X table from PV guest accesses") on the master branch of git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git.

2013-03-20perf,x86: fix wrmsr_on_cpu() warning on suspend/resumeLinus Torvalds
commit 2a6e06b2aed6995af401dcd4feb5e79a0c7ea554 upstream. Commit 1d9d8639c063 ("perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after suspend/resume") fixed a crash when doing PEBS performance profiling after resuming, but in using init_debug_store_on_cpu() to restore the DS_AREA mtrr it also resulted in a new WARN_ON() triggering. init_debug_store_on_cpu() uses "wrmsr_on_cpu()", which in turn uses CPU cross-calls to do the MSR update. Which is not really valid at the early resume stage, and the warning is quite reasonable. Now, it all happens to _work_, for the simple reason that smp_call_function_single() ends up just doing the call directly on the CPU when the CPU number matches, but we really should just do the wrmsr() directly instead. This duplicates the wrmsr() logic, but hopefully we can just remove the wrmsr_on_cpu() version eventually.

2013-03-20perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after suspend/resumeStephane Eranian
commit 1d9d8639c063caf6efc2447f5f26aa637f844ff6 upstream. This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS) after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS measurement to crash when running on CPU0. The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0, the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

2013-03-14xen/pci: We don't do multiple MSI's.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
commit 884ac2978a295b7df3c4a686d3bff6932bbbb460 upstream. There is no hypercall to setup multiple MSI per PCI device. As such with these two new commits: - 08261d87f7d1b6253ab3223756625a5c74532293 PCI/MSI: Enable multiple MSIs with pci_enable_msi_block_auto() - 5ca72c4f7c412c2002363218901eba5516c476b1 AHCI: Support multiple MSIs we would call the PHYSDEVOP_map_pirq 'nvec' times with the same contents of the PCI device.

commit c79c49826270b8b0061b2fca840fc3f013c8a78a upstream. The git commit 8eaffa67b43e99ae581622c5133e20b0f48bcef1 (xen/pat: Disable PAT support for now) explains in details why we want to disable PAT for right now. However that change was not enough and we should have also disabled the pat_enabled value.

Stefan Bader dug in this deep and found out that: "That makes it clearer as this will do reserve_memtype(...) --> pat_x_mtrr_type --> mtrr_type_lookup --> __mtrr_type_lookup And that can return -1/0xff in case of MTRR not being enabled/initialized. Which is not the case (given there are no messages for it in dmesg). This is not equal to MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK and thus becomes _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS. It looks like the problem starts early in reserve_memtype: if (!pat_enabled) { /* This is identical to page table setting without PAT */ if (new_type) { if (req_type == _PAGE_CACHE_WC) *new_type = _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS; else *new_type = req_type & _PAGE_CACHE_MASK; } return 0; } This would be what we want, that is clearing the PWT and PCD flags from the supported flags - if pat_enabled is disabled." This patch does that - disabling PAT.

2013-03-04x86, efi: Allow slash in file path of initrdLee, Chun-Yi
commit deb94101c4fda22e152c2a311210cf09ae51adf6 upstream. When initrd file didn't put at the same place with stub kernel, we need give the file path of initrd, but need use backslash to separate directory and file. It's not friendly to unix/linux user, and not so intuitive for bootloader forward paramters to efi stub kernel by chainloading. This patch add support to handle_ramdisks for allow slash in file path of initrd, it convert slash to backlash when parsing path. In additional, this patch also separates print code of efi_char16_t from efi_printk, and print out the path/filename of initrd when failed to open initrd file. It's good for debug and discover typo.

2013-03-04x86: Make sure we can boot in the case the BDA contains pure garbageH. Peter Anvin
commit 7c10093692ed2e6f318387d96b829320aa0ca64c upstream. On non-BIOS platforms it is possible that the BIOS data area contains garbage instead of being zeroed or something equivalent (firmware people: we are talking of 1.5K here, so please do the sane thing.) We need on the order of 20-30K of low memory in order to boot, which may grow up to < 64K in the future. We probably want to avoid the lowest of the low memory. At the same time, it seems extremely unlikely that a legitimate EBDA would ever reach down to the 128K (which would require it to be over half a megabyte in size.) Thus, pick 128K as the cutoff for "this is insane, ignore." We may still end up reserving a bunch of extra memory on the low megabyte, but that is not really a major issue these days. In the worst case we lose 512K of RAM. This code really should be merged with trim_bios_range() in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c, but that is a bigger patch for a later merge window.

commit fb834c7acc5e140cf4f9e86da93a66de8c0514da upstream. commit 1de63d60cd5b ("efi: Clear EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES rather than EFI_BOOT by "noefi" boot parameter") attempted to make "noefi" true to its documentation and disable EFI runtime services to prevent the bricking bug described in commit e0094244e41c ("samsung-laptop: Disable on EFI hardware"). However, it's not possible to clear EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES from an early param function because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES is set in efi_init() *after* parse_early_param(). This resulted in "noefi" effectively becoming a no-op and no longer providing users with a way to disable EFI, which is bad for those users that have buggy machines.

2013-02-28xen: Send spinlock IPI to all waitersStefan Bader
commit 76eaca031f0af2bb303e405986f637811956a422 upstream. There is a loophole between Xen's current implementation of pv-spinlocks and the scheduler. This was triggerable through a testcase until v3.6 changed the TLB flushing code. The problem potentially is still there just not observable in the same way. What could happen was (is): 1. CPU n tries to schedule task x away and goes into a slow wait for the runq lock of CPU n-# (must be one with a lower number). 2. CPU n-#, while processing softirqs, tries to balance domains and goes into a slow wait for its own runq lock (for updating some records). Since this is a spin_lock_irqsave in softirq context, interrupts will be re-enabled for the duration of the poll_irq hypercall used by Xen. 3. Before the runq lock of CPU n-# is unlocked, CPU n-1 receives an interrupt (e.g. endio) and when processing the interrupt, tries to wake up task x. But that is in schedule and still on_cpu, so try_to_wake_up goes into a tight loop. 4. The runq lock of CPU n-# gets unlocked, but the message only gets sent to the first waiter, which is CPU n-# and that is busily stuck. 5. CPU n-# never returns from the nested interruption to take and release the lock because the scheduler uses a busy wait. And CPU n never finishes the task migration because the unlock notification only went to CPU n-#. To avoid this and since the unlocking code has no real sense of which waiter is best suited to grab the lock, just send the IPI to all of them. This causes the waiters to return from the hyper- call (those not interrupted at least) and do active spinlocking.

2013-02-28x86: Hyper-V: register clocksource only if its advertisedOlaf Hering
commit 32068f6527b8f1822a30671dedaf59c567325026 upstream. Enable hyperv_clocksource only if its advertised as a feature. XenServer 6 returns the signature which is checked in ms_hyperv_platform(), but it does not offer all features. Currently the clocksource is enabled unconditionally in ms_hyperv_init_platform(), and the result is a hanging guest. Hyper-V spec Bit 1 indicates the availability of Partition Reference Counter. Register the clocksource only if this bit is set. The guest in question prints this in dmesg: [ 0.000000] Hypervisor detected: Microsoft HyperV [ 0.000000] HyperV: features 0x70, hints 0x0 This bug can be reproduced easily be setting 'viridian=1' in a HVM domU .cfg file.

2013-02-28x86-32, mm: Rip out x86_32 NUMA remapping codeDave Hansen
commit f03574f2d5b2d6229dcdf2d322848065f72953c7 upstream. This code was an optimization for 32-bit NUMA systems. It has probably been the cause of a number of subtle bugs over the years, although the conditions to excite them would have been hard to trigger. Essentially, we remap part of the kernel linear mapping area, and then sometimes part of that area gets freed back in to the bootmem allocator. If those pages get used by kernel data structures (say mem_map[] or a dentry), there's no big deal. But, if anyone ever tried to use the linear mapping for these pages _and_ cared about their physical address, bad things happen. For instance, say you passed __GFP_ZERO to the page allocator and then happened to get handed one of these pages, it zero the remapped page, but it would make a pte to the _old_ page. There are probably a hundred other ways that it could screw with things. We don't need to hang on to performance optimizations for these old boxes any more. All my 32-bit NUMA systems are long dead and buried, and I probably had access to more than most people. This code is causing real things to break today: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/9/376 I looked in to actually fixing this, but it requires surgery to way too much brittle code, as well as stuff like per_cpu_ptr_to_phys().

" Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves this problem: "This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)." The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the %cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is the approach taken in this patch. Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention and lead to accidents.

2013-02-13x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel addressMel Gorman
A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads /proc/kcore: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370 [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0 [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130 [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0 [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page. The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be walked resulting in the oops above. This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check. Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now they are running the backup program without accessing /proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it makes sense.

2013-02-11x86/apic: Work around boot failure on HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server systemsStoney Wang
When a HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server boots a regular kernel, there will be intermittent lost interrupts which could result in a hang or (in extreme cases) data loss. The reason is that this system only supports x2apic physical mode, while the kernel boots with a logical-cluster default setting. This bug can be worked around by specifying the "x2apic_phys" or "nox2apic" boot option, but we want to handle this system without requiring manual workarounds. The BIOS sets ACPI_FADT_APIC_PHYSICAL in FADT table. As all apicids are smaller than 255, BIOS need to pass the control to the OS with xapic mode, according to x2apic-spec, chapter 2.9. Current code handle x2apic when BIOS pass with xapic mode enabled: When user specifies x2apic_phys, or FADT indicates PHYSICAL: 1. During madt oem check, apic driver is set with xapic logical or xapic phys driver at first. 2. enable_IR_x2apic() will enable x2apic_mode. 3. if user specifies x2apic_phys on the boot line, x2apic_phys_probe() will install the correct x2apic phys driver and use x2apic phys mode. Otherwise it will skip the driver will let x2apic_cluster_probe to take over to install x2apic cluster driver (wrong one) even though FADT indicates PHYSICAL, because x2apic_phys_probe does not check FADT PHYSICAL. Add checking x2apic_fadt_phys in x2apic_phys_probe() to fix the problem.

2013-01-30efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilitiesMatt Fleming
Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

This resulted in macbook pro's no longer finding the rom images, and thus not being able to use the radeon card any more. The solution is to just remove the check for now, and always copy the rom if available.

2013-01-27x86, build: Dynamically find entry points in compressed startup codeDavid Woodhouse
We have historically hard-coded entry points in head.S just so it's easy to build the executable/bzImage headers with references to them. Unfortunately, this leads to boot loaders abusing these "known" addresses even when they are *explicitly* told that they "should look at the ELF header to find this address, as it may change in the future". And even when the address in question *has* actually been changed in the past, without fanfare or thought to compatibility. Thus we have bootloaders doing stunningly broken things like jumping to offset 0x200 in the kernel startup code in 64-bit mode, *hoping* that startup_64 is still there (it has moved at least once before). And hoping that it's actually a 64-bit kernel despite the fact that we don't give them any indication of that fact. This patch should hopefully remove the temptation to abuse internal addresses in future, where sternly worded comments have not sufficed. Instead of having hard-coded addresses and saying "please don't abuse these", we actually pull the addresses out of the ELF payload into zoffset.h, and make build.c shove them back into the right places in the bzImage header. Rather than including zoffset.h into build.c and thus having to rebuild the tool for every kernel build, we parse it instead. The parsing code is small and simple. This patch doesn't actually move any of the interesting entry points, so any offending bootloader will still continue to "work" after this patch is applied. For some version of "work" which includes jumping into the compressed payload and crashing, if the bzImage it's given is a 32-bit kernel. No change there then.

When booting under OVMF we have precisely one GOP device, and it implements the ConOut protocol. We break out of the loop when we look at it... and then promptly abort because 'first_gop' never gets set. We should set first_gop *before* breaking out of the loop. Yes, it doesn't really mean "first" any more, but that doesn't matter. It's only a flag to indicate that a suitable GOP was found. In fact, we'd do just as well to initialise 'width' to zero in this function, then just check *that* instead of first_gop. But I'll do the minimal fix for now (and for stable@).

Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol: add xloadflags and additional fields to allow the command line, initramfs and struct boot_params to live above the 4 GiB mark. The xloadflags now communicates if this is a 64-bit kernel with the legacy 64-bit entry point and which of the EFI handover entry points are supported. Avoid adding new read flags to loadflags because of claimed bootloaders testing the whole byte for == 1 to determine bzImageness at least until the issue can be researched further.

2013-01-24x86/msr: Add capabilities checkAlan Cox
At the moment the MSR driver only relies upon file system checks. This means that anything as root with any capability set can write to MSRs. Historically that wasn't very interesting but on modern processors the MSRs are such that writing to them provides several ways to execute arbitary code in kernel space. Sample code and documentation on doing this is circulating and MSR attacks are used on Windows 64bit rootkits already. In the Linux case you still need to be able to open the device file so the impact is fairly limited and reduces the security of some capability and security model based systems down towards that of a generic "root owns the box" setup. Therefore they should require CAP_SYS_RAWIO to prevent an elevation of capabilities. The impact of this is fairly minimal on most setups because they don't have heavy use of capabilities. Those using SELinux, SMACK or AppArmor rules might want to consider if their rulesets on the MSR driver could be tighter.

2013-01-24x86/dma-debug: Bump PREALLOC_DMA_DEBUG_ENTRIESMaarten Lankhorst
I ran out of free entries when I had CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled. Some other archs seem to default to 65536, so increase this limit for x86 too.

2013-01-24x86/olpc: Fix olpc-xo1-sci.c build errorsRandy Dunlap
Fix build errors when CONFIG_INPUT=m. This is not pretty, but all of the OLPC kconfig options are bool instead of tristate. arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `send_lid_state': olpc-xo1-sci.c:(.text+0x1d323): undefined reference to `input_event' olpc-xo1-sci.c:(.text+0x1d338): undefined reference to `input_event' ... In the long run, fixing this driver kconfig to be tristate instead of bool would be a very good change.
