We're in a hot path. We can't use kmalloc() because
it might impact performance. So, we just stick the buffer that
we need into the kvm_vcpu_arch structure. This is used very
often, so it is not really a waste.
We also have to move the buffer structure's definition to the
arch-specific x86 kvm header.

(cherry picked from commit f0d662759a2465babdba1160749c446648c9d159)
On my machine with gcc 3.4, kvm uses ~2k of stack in a few
select functions. This is mostly because gcc fails to
notice that the different case: statements could have their
stack usage combined. It overflows very nicely if interrupts
happen during one of these large uses.
This patch uses two methods for reducing stack usage.
1. dynamically allocate large objects instead of putting
on the stack.
2. Use a union{} member for all of the case variables. This
tricks gcc into combining them all into a single stack
allocation. (There's also a comment on this)

The accessed bit was accidentally turned on in a random flag word, rather
than, the spte itself, which was lucky, since it used the non-EPT compatible
PT_ACCESSED_MASK.
Fix by turning the bit on in the spte and changing it to use the portable

commit fe2245c905631a3a353504fc04388ce3dfaf9d9e upstream.
The current code to set up the GART as an IOMMU enables GART
translations before it removes the aperture from the kernel memory
map, sets the GART PTEs to UC, sets up the guard and scratch
pages, or does a wbinvd(). This leaves the possibility of cache
aliasing open and can cause system crashes.
Re-order the code so as to enable the GART translations only
after all safeguards are in place and the tlb has been flushed.
AMD has tested this patch on both Istanbul systems and 1st
generation Opteron systems with APG enabled and seen no adverse
effects. Istanbul systems with HT Assist enabled sometimes
see MCE errors due to cache artifacts with the unmodified
code.

parisc: ensure broadcast tlb purge runs single threaded
The TLB flushing functions on hppa, which causes PxTLB broadcasts on the system
bus, needs to be protected by irq-safe spinlocks to avoid irq handlers to deadlock
the kernel. The deadlocks only happened during I/O intensive loads and triggered
pretty seldom, which is why this bug went so long unnoticed.

[ Upstream commit 7f8189068726492950bf1a2dcfd9b51314560abf - modified
for stable to not use the sloppy __VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT ]
It's really not right to use 'access_ok()', since that is meant for the
normal "get_user()" and "copy_from/to_user()" accesses, which are done
through the TLB, rather than through the page tables.
Why? access_ok() does both too few, and too many checks. Too many,
because it is meant for regular kernel accesses that will not honor the
'user' bit in the page tables, and because it honors the USER_DS vs
KERNEL_DS distinction that we shouldn't care about in GUP. And too few,
because it doesn't do the 'canonical' check on the address on x86-64,
since the TLB will do that for us.
So instead of using a function that isn't meant for this, and does
something else and much more complicated, just do the real rules: we
don't want the range to overflow, and on x86-64, we want it to be a
canonical low address (on 32-bit, all addresses are canonical).

commit ff0c0874905fb312ca1491bbdac2653b0b48c20b upstream.
Impact: reactivate DMI quirks on EFI hardware
DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after
efi_init() and not before.
Currently Apple hardware uses DMI to determine the framebuffer mappings
for efifb. Without DMI working you also have no video on MacBook Pro.
This patch resolves the DMI issue for EFI hardware (DMI is now properly
detected at boot), and additionally efifb now loads on Apple hardware
(i.e. video works).

shared or not
commit 32b154c0b0bae2879bf4e549d861caf1759a3546 upstream.
Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302
On x86 and x86-64, it is possible that page tables are shared beween
shared mappings backed by hugetlbfs. As part of this,
page_table_shareable() checks a pair of vma->vm_flags and they must match
if they are to be shared. All VMA flags are taken into account, including
VM_LOCKED.
The problem is that VM_LOCKED is cleared on fork(). When a process with a
shared memory segment forks() to exec() a helper, there will be shared
VMAs with different flags. The impact is that the shared segment is
sometimes considered shareable and other times not, depending on what
process is checking.
What happens is that the segment page tables are being shared but the
count is inaccurate depending on the ordering of events. As the page
tables are freed with put_page(), bad pmd's are found when some of the
children exit. The hugepage counters also get corrupted and the Total and
Free count will no longer match even when all the hugepage-backed regions
are freed. This requires a reboot of the machine to "fix".
This patch addresses the problem by comparing all flags except VM_LOCKED
when deciding if pagetables should be shared or not for hugetlbfs-backed
mapping.

[ Upstream commit d0cac39e4ec8097e4c7099d291b1fdcc0fe56b58 ]
Based upon a report by Meelis Roos.
Sparc64 SBUS and PCI controllers use a combination of IMAP and ICLR
registers to manage device interrupts.
The IMAP register contains the "valid" enable bit as well as CPU
targetting information. Whereas the ICLR register is written with
zero at the end of handling an interrupt to reset the state machine
for that interrupt to IDLE so it can be sent again.
For PCI slot and SBUS slot devices we can have multiple interrupts
sharing the same IMAP register. There are individual ICLR registers
but only one IMAP register for managing those.
We represent each shared case with individual virtual IRQs so the
generic IRQ layer thinks there is only one user of the IRQ instance.
In such shared IMAP cases this is wrong, so if there are multiple
active users then a free_irq() call will prematurely turn off the
interrupt by clearing the Valid bit in the IMAP register even though
there are other active users.
Fix this by simply doing nothing in sun4u_disable_irq() and checking
IRQF_DISABLED during IRQ dispatch.
This situation doesn't exist in the hypervisor sun4v cases, so I left
those alone.

[ Upstream commit 192d7a4667c6d11d1a174ec4cad9a3c5d5f9043c ]
When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type
"cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct
resource are uninitialized.
Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is
responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it,
not the responsibility of request_resource functuion.
After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields
added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this.

If there is a dummy "espdma" or "ledma" parent device above ESP scsi
or LE ethernet device nodes, we have to match the bus as SBUS.
Otherwise the address and size cell counts are wrong and we don't
calculate the final physical device resource values correctly at all.
Commit 5280267c1dddb8d413595b87dc406624bb497946 ("sparc: Fix handling
of LANCE and ESP parent nodes in of_device.c") was meant to fix this
problem, but that only influences the inner loop of
build_device_resources(). We need this logic to also kick in at the
beginning of build_device_resources() as well, when we make the first
attempt to determine the device's immediate parent bus type for 'reg'
property element extraction.

This has been backported to 2.6.27.x from commit efbda86098 in Linus' tree.
On powerpc64 machines running 32-bit userspace, we can get garbage bits in the
stack pointer passed into the kernel. Most places handle this correctly, but
the signal handling code uses the passed value directly for allocating signal
stack frames.
This fixes the issue by introducing a get_clean_sp function that returns a
sanitized stack pointer. For 32-bit tasks on a 64-bit kernel, the stack
pointer is masked correctly. In all other cases, the stack pointer is simply
returned.
Additionally, we pass an 'is_32' parameter to get_sigframe now in order to
get the properly sanitized stack. The callers are know to be 32 or 64-bit
statically.

upstream commit: 306a82881b14d950d59e0b59a55093a07d82aa9a
Richard Henderson pointed out that the powerpc __futex_atomic_op has a
bug: it will write the wrong value if the stwcx. fails and it has to
retry the lwarx/stwcx. loop, since 'oparg' will have been overwritten
by the result from the first time around the loop. This happens
because it uses the same register for 'oparg' (an input) as it uses
for the result.
This fixes it by using separate registers for 'oparg' and 'ret'.

upstream commit: 3ff42da5048649503e343a32be37b14a6a4e8aaf
Impact: bug fix + BIOS workaround
BIOS is expected to clear the SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on AMD CPUs
after fixed MTRRs are configured.
Some BIOSes do not clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on BP (and on APs).
This can lead to obfuscation in Linux when this bit is not cleared on
BP but cleared on APs. A consequence of this is that the saved
fixed-MTRR state (from BP) differs from the fixed-MTRRs of APs --
because RdDram/WrDram bits are read as zero when
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] is cleared -- and Linux tries to sync
fixed-MTRR state from BP to AP. This implies that Linux sets
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and activates those bits.
More important is that (some) systems change these bits in SMM when
ACPI is enabled. Hence it is racy if Linux modifies RdMem/WrMem bits,
too.
(1) The patch modifies an old fix from Bernhard Kaindl to get
suspend/resume working on some Acer Laptops. Bernhard's patch
tried to sync RdMem/WrMem bits of fixed MTRR registers and that
helped on those old Laptops. (Don't ask me why -- can't test it
myself). But this old problem was not the motivation for the
patch. (See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/3/110)
(2) The more important effect is to fix issues on some more current systems.
On those systems Linux panics or just freezes, see

(and also duplicates of this bug:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11737
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11714)
The affected systems boot only using acpi=ht, acpi=off or
when the kernel is built with CONFIG_MTRR=n.
The acpi options prevent full enablement of ACPI. Obviously when
ACPI is enabled the BIOS/SMM modfies RdMem/WrMem bits. When
CONFIG_MTRR=y Linux also accesses and modifies those bits when it
needs to sync fixed-MTRRs across cores (Bernhard's fix, see (1)).
How do you synchronize that? You can't. As a consequence Linux
shouldn't touch those bits at all (Rationale are AMD's BKDGs which
recommend to clear the bit that makes RdMem/WrMem accessible).
This is the purpose of this patch. And (so far) this suffices to
fix (1) and (2).
I suggest not to touch RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed-MTRRs and
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and to clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] as
suggested by AMD K8, and AMD family 10h/11h BKDGs.
BIOS is expected to do this anyway. This should avoid that
Linux and SMM tread on each other's toes ...

upstream commit: 9cdec049389ce2c324fd1ec508a71528a27d4a07
While looking at the issue in the thread:
http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=123606627824556&w=2
noticed a bug in pci PAT code and memory type setting.
PCI mmap code did not set the proper protection in vma, when it
inherited protection in reserve_memtype. This bug only affects
the case where there exists a WC mapping before X does an mmap
with /proc or /sys pci interface. This will cause X userlevel
mmap from /proc or /sysfs to fail on fork.

Fix misreporting of #cores for the Intel Quad Core Q9550.
For the Q9550, in x86_64 mode, /proc/cpuinfo mistakenly
reports the #cores present as the #hyperthreads present.
i386 mode was not examined but is assumed to have the
same problem.
A backport of the following three 2.6.29-rc1 patches
fixes the problem:
066941bd4eeb159307a5d7d795100d0887c00442:
[PATCH] x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs

[PATCH] x86: add MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE bits to <asm/msr-index.h>
From the first patch: "If the CPUID limit bit in
MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE is set, clear it to make all CPUID
information available. This is required for some features
to work, in particular XSAVE."

commit 4fa81ed27781a12f6303b9263056635ae74e3e21 upstream.
The implementation of __div64_31 for G5 machines is broken. The comments
in __div64_31 are correct, only the code does not do what the comments
say. The part "If the remainder has overflown subtract base and increase
the quotient" is only partially realized, the base is subtracted correctly
but the quotient is only increased if the dividend had the last bit set.
Using the correct instruction fixes the problem.

commit 334f85b647bc46ff4d27ace55aa65f44d6a2f4db upstream.
ia64 only defines __early_pfn_to_nid() for SPARSEMEM && NUMA configurations,
so the recent:
commit: f2dbcfa738368c8a40d4a5f0b65dc9879577cb21
mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()
ends up with some link problems for certain configuration files.
Fix arch/ia64/Kconfig to only define HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID in the
cases where we do provide this function.

fixed upstream in 2.6.28 in merge of ioapic*.c for x86
In io_apic_32.c the logic of no_timer_check is "always make timer_irq_works
return 1".
Io_apic_64.c on the other hand checks for
if (!no_timer_check && timer_irq_works())
basically meaning "make timer_irq_works fail" in the crucial first check.
Now, in order to not move too much code, we can just reverse the logic here
and should be fine off, basically rendering no_timer_check useful again.
This issue seems to be resolved as of 2.6.28 by the merge of io_apic*.c,
but still exists for at least 2.6.27.

commit bf3647c44bc76c43c4b2ebb4c37a559e899ac70e upstream.
kerneloops.org is reporting a lot of these warnings that come due to
vmware not setting up any MTRRs for emulated CPUs:
| Reported 709 times (14696 total reports)
| BIOS bug (often in VMWare) where the MTRR's are set up incorrectly
| or not at all
|
| This warning was last seen in version 2.6.29-rc2-git1, and first
| seen in 2.6.24.
|
| More info:
| http://www.kerneloops.org/searchweek.php?search=mtrr_trim_uncached_memory
Keep a one-liner KERN_INFO about it - so that we have so notice if empty
MTRRs are caused by native hardware/BIOS weirdness.

commit ccbe495caa5e604b04d5a31d7459a6f6a76a756c upstream.
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.
In both these cases, audit_syscall_entry() will use the wrong system
call number table and the wrong system call argument registers. This
could be used to circumvent a syscall audit configuration that filters
based on the syscall numbers or argument details.

commit 5b1017404aea6d2e552e991b3fd814d839e9cd67 upstream.
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.
In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table. The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32. Here is an example exploit:
/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64
There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.
The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
be any chmod call). The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.
A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.

commit c09249f8d1b84344eca882547afdbffee8c09d14 upstream.
One of my past fixes to this code introduced a different new bug.
When using 32-bit "int $0x80" entry for a bogus syscall number,
the return value is not correctly set to -ENOSYS. This only happens
when neither syscall-audit nor syscall tracing is enabled (i.e., never
seen if auditd ever started). Test program:
/* gcc -o int80-badsys -m32 -g int80-badsys.c
Run on x86-64 kernel.
Note to reproduce the bug you need auditd never to have started. */
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int
main (void)
{
long res;
asm ("int $0x80" : "=a" (res) : "0" (99999));
printf ("bad syscall returns %ld\n", res);
return res != -ENOSYS;
}
The fix makes the int $0x80 path match the sysenter and syscall paths.
