There is no upstream commit ID for this patch since it is not a straight
backport from upstream. It is a fix only relevant to 2.6.32.y.
Since 1d5f066e0b63271b67eac6d3752f8aa96adcbddb from 2.6.37 was
back-ported to 2.6.32.40 as ad2088cabe0fd7f633f38ba106025d33ed9a2105,
the following patch is needed to add the needed reset logic to 2.6.32 as
well.
Bug #23257: Reset tsc_timestamp on TSC writes
vcpu->last_guest_tsc is updated in vcpu_enter_guest() and kvm_arch_vcpu_put()
by getting the last value of the TSC from the guest.
On reset, the SeaBIOS resets the TSC to 0, which triggers a bug on the next
call to kvm_write_guest_time(): Since vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp still
contains the old value before the reset, "max_kernel_ns = vcpu->last_guest_tsc
- vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp" gets negative. Since the variable is u64, it
gets translated to a large positive value.
[9333.197080]
vcpu->last_guest_tsc =209_328_760_015 ←
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_timestamp=209_328_708_109
vcpu->last_kernel_ns =9_333_179_830_643
kernel_ns =9_333_197_073_429
max_kernel_ns =9_333_179_847_943 ←
[9336.910995]
vcpu->last_guest_tsc =9_438_510_584 ←
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_timestamp=211_080_593_143
vcpu->last_kernel_ns =9_333_763_732_907
kernel_ns =9_336_910_990_771
max_kernel_ns =6_148_296_831_006_663_830 ←
For completeness, here are the values for my 3 GHz CPU:
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_shift =-1
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_to_system_mul =2_863_019_502
This makes the guest kernel crawl very slowly when clocksource=kvmclock is
used: sleeps take way longer than expected and don't match wall clock any more.
The times printed with printk() don't match real time and the reboot often
stalls for long times.
In linux-git this isn't a problem, since on every MSR_IA32_TSC write
vcpu->arch.hv_clock.tsc_timestamp is reset to 0, which disables above logic.
The code there is only in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, since much of the kvm-clock
related code has been refactured for 2.6.37:

commit f611f2da99420abc973c32cdbddbf5c365d0a20c upstream.
The patches missed an indirect use of IRQF_NO_SUSPEND pulled in via
IRQF_TIMER. The following patch fixes the issue.
With this fixlet PV guest migration works just fine. I also booted the
entire series as a dom0 kernel and it appeared fine.

commit 8535639810e578960233ad39def3ac2157b0c3ec upstream.
ubd_file_size() cannot use ubd_dev->cow.file because at this time
ubd_dev->cow.file is not initialized.
Therefore, ubd_file_size() will always report a wrong disk size when
COW files are used.
Reading from /dev/ubd* would crash the kernel.
We have to read the correct disk size from the COW file's backing
file.

commit 6571534b600b8ca1936ff5630b9e0947f21faf16 upstream.
To configure pads during the initialisation a set of special constants
is used, e.g.
#define MX25_PAD_FEC_MDIO__FEC_MDIO IOMUX_PAD(0x3c4, 0x1cc, 0x10, 0, 0, PAD_CTL_HYS | PAD_CTL_PUS_22K_UP)
The problem is that no pull-up/down is getting activated unless both
PAD_CTL_PUE (pull-up enable) and PAD_CTL_PKE (pull/keeper module
enable) set. This is clearly stated in the i.MX25 datasheet and is
confirmed by the measurements on hardware. This leads to some rather
hard to understand bugs such as misdetecting an absent ethernet PHY (a
real bug i had), unstable data transfer etc. This might affect mx25,
mx35, mx50, mx51 and mx53 SoCs.
It's reasonable to expect that if the pullup value is specified, the
intention was to have it actually active, so we implicitly add the
needed bits.

commit 315eb8a2a1b7f335d40ceeeb11b9e067475eb881 upstream.
When compiling an i386_defconfig kernel with gcc-4.6.1-9.fc15.i686, I
noticed a warning about the asm operand for test_bit in kprobes'
can_boost. I discovered that this caused only the first long of
twobyte_is_boostable[] to be output.
Jakub filed and fixed gcc PR50571 to correct the warning and this output
issue. But to solve it for less current gcc, we can make kprobes'
twobyte_is_boostable[] non-const, and it won't be optimized out.

commit 810198bc9c109489dfadc57131c5183ce6ad2d7d upstream.
DA850/OMAP-L138 EMAC driver uses random mac address instead of
a fixed one because the mac address is not stuffed into EMAC
platform data.
This patch provides a function which reads the mac address
stored in SPI flash (registered as MTD device) and populates the
EMAC platform data. The function which reads the mac address is
registered as a callback which gets called upon addition of MTD
device.
NOTE: In case the MAC address stored in SPI flash is erased, follow
the instructions at [1] to restore it.
[1] http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/GSG:_OMAP-L138_DVEVM_Additional_Procedures#Restoring_MAC_address_on_SPI_Flash
Modifications in v2:
Guarded registering the mtd_notifier only when MTD is enabled.
Earlier this was handled using mtd_has_partitions() call, but
this has been removed in Linux v3.0.
Modifications in v3:
a. Guarded da850_evm_m25p80_notify_add() function and
da850evm_spi_notifier structure with CONFIG_MTD macros.
b. Renamed da850_evm_register_mtd_user() function to
da850_evm_setup_mac_addr() and removed the struct mtd_notifier
argument to this function.
c. Passed the da850evm_spi_notifier structure to register_mtd_user()
function.
Modifications in v4:
Moved the da850_evm_setup_mac_addr() function within the first
CONFIG_MTD ifdef construct.

commit ed467e69f16e6b480e2face7bc5963834d025f91 upstream.
We have hit a couple of customer bugs where they would like to
use those parameters to run an UP kernel - but both of those
options turn of important sources of interrupt information so
we end up not being able to boot. The correct way is to
pass in 'dom0_max_vcpus=1' on the Xen hypervisor line and
the kernel will patch itself to be a UP kernel.

interrupt context
commit d198d499148a0c64a41b3aba9e7dd43772832b91 upstream.
If vmalloc page_fault happens inside of interrupt handler with interrupts
disabled then on exit path from exception handler when there is no pending
interrupts, the following code (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:112):
cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
sete XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)
will enable interrupts even if they has been previously disabled according to
eflags from the bounce frame (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:99)
testb $X86_EFLAGS_IF>>8, 8+1+ESP_OFFSET(%esp)
setz XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)
Solution is in setting XEN_vcpu_info_mask only when it should be set
according to
cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
but not clearing it if there isn't any pending events.
Reproducer for bug is attached to RHBZ 707552

commit 5b339bdf164d8aee394609768f7e2e4415b0252a upstream.
We ran into an issue where it looks like we're not properly ignoring a
pci device with a non-good status property when we walk the device tree
and instanciate the Linux side PCI devices.
However, the EEH init code does look for the property and disables EEH
on these devices. This leaves us in an inconsistent where we are poking
at a supposedly bad piece of hardware and RTAS will block our config
cycles because EEH isn't enabled anyway.

commit 5598473a5b40c47a8c5349dd2c2630797169cf1a upstream.
If we can't push the pending register windows onto the user's stack,
we disallow signal delivery even if the signal would be delivered on a
valid seperate signal stack.
Add a register window save area in the signal frame, and store any
unsavable windows there.
On sigreturn, if any windows are still queued up in the signal frame,
try to push them back onto the stack and if that fails we kill the
process immediately.
This allows the debug/tst-longjmp_chk2 glibc test case to pass.

commit 7ca0758cdb7c241cb4e0490a8d95f0eb5b861daf upstream.
When we enter a 32-bit system call via SYSENTER or SYSCALL, we shuffle
the arguments to match the int $0x80 calling convention. This was
probably a design mistake, but it's what it is now. This causes
errors if the system call as to be restarted.
For SYSENTER, we have to invoke the instruction from the vdso as the
return address is hardcoded. Accordingly, we can simply replace the
jump in the vdso with an int $0x80 instruction and use the slower
entry point for a post-restart.

Looking at make_room and alloc_up, we claim the first chunk (1 MB)
but we never claim any more. mem_end is always set to alloc_top
which is the top of our available address space, guaranteeing we will
never call alloc_up and claim more memory.
Also alloc_up wasn't setting alloc_bottom to the bottom of the
available address space.
This doesn't help the box to boot, but we at least fail with
an obvious error. We could relocate the device tree in a future

mostly trivial.
1. Signedness issue in osf_getdomainname allows copying out-of-bounds
kernel memory to userland.
2. Signedness issue in osf_sysinfo allows copying large amounts of
kernel memory to userland.
3. Typo (?) in osf_getsysinfo bounds minimum instead of maximum copy
size, allowing copying large amounts of kernel memory to userland.
4. Usage of user pointer in osf_wait4 while under KERNEL_DS allows
privilege escalation via writing return value of sys_wait4 to kernel
memory.

commit 995bd3bb5 (x86: Hpet: Avoid the comparator readback penalty)
chose 8 HPET cycles as a safe value for the ETIME check, as we had the
confirmation that the posted write to the comparator register is
delayed by two HPET clock cycles on Intel chipsets which showed
readback problems.
After that patch hit mainline we got reports from machines with newer
AMD chipsets which seem to have an even longer delay. See
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1054283 and
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1069458 for further
information.
Boris tried to come up with an ACPI based selection of the minimum
HPET cycles, but this failed on a couple of test machines. And of
course we did not get any useful information from the hardware folks.
For now our only option is to chose a paranoid high and safe value for
the minimum HPET cycles used by the ETIME check. Adjust the minimum ns
value for the HPET clockevent accordingly.

(imported from commit v2.6.36-rc4-167-g995bd3b)
Due to the overly intelligent design of HPETs, we need to workaround
the problem that the compare value which we write is already behind
the actual counter value at the point where the value hits the real
compare register. This happens for two reasons:
1) We read out the counter, add the delta and write the result to the
compare register. When a NMI or SMI hits between the read out and
the write then the counter can be ahead of the event already
2) The write to the compare register is delayed by up to two HPET
cycles in certain chipsets.
We worked around this by reading back the compare register to make
sure that the written value has hit the hardware. For certain ICH9+
chipsets this can require two readouts, as the first one can return
the previous compare register value. That's bad performance wise for
the normal case where the event is far enough in the future.
As we already know that the write can be delayed by up to two cycles
we can avoid the read back of the compare register completely if we
make the decision whether the delta has elapsed already or not based
on the following calculation:
cmp = event - actual_count;
If cmp is less than 8 HPET clock cycles, then we decide that the event
has happened already and return -ETIME. That covers the above #1 and

commit 050438ed5a05b25cdf287f5691e56a58c2606997 upstream.
In kexec jump support, jump back address passed to the kexeced
kernel via function calling ABI, that is, the function call
return address is the jump back entry.
Furthermore, jump back entry == 0 should be used to signal that
the jump back or preserve context is not enabled in the original
kernel.
But in the current implementation the stack position used for
function call return address is not cleared context
preservation is disabled. The patch fixes this bug.

commit a91d92875ee94e4703fd017ccaadb48cfb344994 upstream.
We only need to set max_pfn_mapped to the last pfn mapped on x86_64 to
make sure that cleanup_highmap doesn't remove important mappings at
_end.
We don't need to do this on x86_32 because cleanup_highmap is not called
on x86_32. Besides lowering max_pfn_mapped on x86_32 has the unwanted
side effect of limiting the amount of memory available for the 1:1
kernel pagetable allocation.
This patch reverts the x86_32 part of the original patch.

commit dac853ae89043f1b7752875300faf614de43c74b upstream.
Unconditionally changing the address limit to USER_DS and not restoring
it to its old value in the error path is wrong because it prevents us
using kernel memory on repeated calls to this function. This, in fact,
breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being
ever successful if the first candidate fails to load.
With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point
of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch
rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded)
probed paths.
Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread()
will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed.

commit 7899891c7d161752f29abcc9bc0a9c6c3a3af26c upstream.
There's a race window in xen_drop_mm_ref, where remote cpu may exit
dirty bitmap between the check on this cpu and the point where remote
cpu handles drop request. So in drop_other_mm_ref we need check
whether TLB state is still lazy before calling into leave_mm. This
bug is rarely observed in earlier kernel, but exaggerated by the
commit 831d52bc153971b70e64eccfbed2b232394f22f8
("x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after switching mm")

commit d47cc0db8fd6011de2248df505fc34990b7451bf upstream.
The workaround for Bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33012
introduced a read and a write to the MC4 mask msr.
Unfortunatly this MSR is not emulated by the KVM hypervisor
so that the kernel will get a #GP and crashes when applying
this workaround when running inside KVM.
This issue was reported as:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35132
and is fixed with this patch. The change just let the kernel
ignore any #GP it gets while accessing this MSR by using the
_safe msr access methods.

commit e9cdd343a5e42c43bcda01e609fa23089e026470 upstream.
Commit b87cf80af3ba4b4c008b4face3c68d604e1715c6 added support for
ARAT (Always Running APIC timer) on AMD processors that are not
affected by erratum 400. This erratum is present on certain processor
families and prevents APIC timer from waking up the CPU when it
is in a deep C state, including C1E state.
Determining whether a processor is affected by this erratum may
have some corner cases and handling these cases is somewhat
complicated. In the interest of simplicity we won't claim ARAT
support on processor families below 0x12 and will go back to
broadcasting timer when going idle.

commit 26afb7c661080ae3f1f13ddf7f0c58c4f931c22b upstream.
As reported in BZ #30352:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30352
there's a kernel bug related to reading the last allowed page on x86_64.
The _copy_to_user() and _copy_from_user() functions use the following
check for address limit:
if (buf + size >= limit)
fail();
while it should be more permissive:
if (buf + size > limit)
fail();
That's because the size represents the number of bytes being
read/write from/to buf address AND including the buf address.
So the copy function will actually never touch the limit
address even if "buf + size == limit".
Following program fails to use the last page as buffer
due to the wrong limit check:
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <assert.h>
#define PAGE_SIZE (4096)
#define LAST_PAGE ((void*)(0x7fffffffe000))
int main()
{
int fds[2], err;
void * ptr = mmap(LAST_PAGE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
assert(ptr == LAST_PAGE);
err = socketpair(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fds);
assert(err == 0);
err = send(fds[0], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, 0);
perror("send");
assert(err == PAGE_SIZE);
err = recv(fds[1], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, MSG_WAITALL);
perror("recv");
assert(err == PAGE_SIZE);
return 0;
}
The other place checking the addr limit is the access_ok() function,
which is working properly. There's just a misleading comment
for the __range_not_ok() macro - which this patch fixes as well.
The last page of the user-space address range is a guard page and
Brian Gerst observed that the guard page itself due to an erratum on K8 cpus
(#121 Sequential Execution Across Non-Canonical Boundary Causes Processor
Hang).
However, the test code is using the last valid page before the guard page.
The bug is that the last byte before the guard page can't be read
because of the off-by-one error. The guard page is left in place.
This bug would normally not show up because the last page is
part of the process stack and never accessed via syscalls.

commit ad5d5292f16c6c1d7d3e257c4c7407594286b97e upstream.
Commit 0837e3242c73566fc1c0196b4ec61779c25ffc93 fixes a situation on POWER7
where events can roll back if a specualtive event doesn't actually complete.
This can raise a performance monitor exception. We need to catch this to ensure
that we reset the PMC. In all cases the PMC will be less than 256 cycles from
overflow.
This patch lifts Anton's fix for the problem in perf and applies it to oprofile
as well.

commit 3d2cea732d68aa270c360f55d8669820ebce188a upstream.
Commit 1fc711f7ffb01089efc58042cfdbac8573d1b59a (powerpc/kexec: Fix race
in kexec shutdown) moved the write to signal the cpu had exited the kernel
from before the transition to real mode in kexec_smp_wait to kexec_wait.
Unfornately it missed that kexec_wait is used both by cpus leaving the
kernel and by secondary slave cpus that were not allocated a paca for
what ever reason -- they could be beyond nr_cpus or not described in
the current device tree for whatever reason (for example, kexec-load
was not refreshed after a cpu hotplug operation). Cpus coming through
that path they will write to paca[NR_CPUS] which is beyond the space
allocated for the paca data and overwrite memory not allocated to pacas
but very likely still real mode accessable).
Move the write back to kexec_smp_wait, which is used only by cpus that
found their paca, but after the transition to real mode.

commit e503f9e4b092e2349a9477a333543de8f3c7f5d9 upstream.
This patch fixes a bug reported by a customer, who found
that many unreasonable error interrupts reported on all
non-boot CPUs (APs) during the system boot stage.
According to Chapter 10 of Intel Software Developer Manual
Volume 3A, Local APIC may signal an illegal vector error when
an LVT entry is set as an illegal vector value (0~15) under
FIXED delivery mode (bits 8-11 is 0), regardless of whether
the mask bit is set or an interrupt actually happen. These
errors are seen as error interrupts.
The initial value of thermal LVT entries on all APs always reads
0x10000 because APs are woken up by BSP issuing INIT-SIPI-SIPI
sequence to them and LVT registers are reset to 0s except for
the mask bits which are set to 1s when APs receive INIT IPI.
When the BIOS takes over the thermal throttling interrupt,
the LVT thermal deliver mode should be SMI and it is required
from the kernel to keep AP's LVT thermal monitoring register
programmed as such as well.
This issue happens when BIOS does not take over thermal throttling
interrupt, AP's LVT thermal monitor register will be restored to
0x10000 which means vector 0 and fixed deliver mode, so all APs will
signal illegal vector error interrupts.
This patch check if interrupt delivery mode is not fixed mode before
restoring AP's LVT thermal monitor register.

commit 14fb57dccb6e1defe9f89a66f548fcb24c374c1d upstream.
Trying to enable the local APIC timer on early K8 revisions
uncovers a number of other issues with it, in conjunction with
the C1E enter path on AMD. Fixing those causes much more churn
and troubles than the benefit of using that timer brings so
don't enable it on K8 at all, falling back to the original
functionality the kernel had wrt to that.

commit 328935e6348c6a7cb34798a68c326f4b8372e68a upstream.
This reverts commit e20a2d205c05cef6b5783df339a7d54adeb50962, as it crashes
certain boxes with specific AMD CPU models.
Moving the lower endpoint of the Erratum 400 check to accomodate
earlier K8 revisions (A-E) opens a can of worms which is simply
not worth to fix properly by tweaking the errata checking
framework:
* missing IntPenging MSR on revisions < CG cause #GP:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130541471818831
* makes earlier revisions use the LAPIC timer instead of the C1E
idle routine which switches to HPET, thus not waking up in
deeper C-states:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/24/20
Therefore, leave the original boundary starting with K8-revF.

(backported from commit 28e4639adf0c9f26f6bb56149b7ab547bf33bb95)
If preempted after kvmclock values are updated, but before hardware
virtualization is entered, the last tsc time as read by the guest is
never set. It underflows the next time kvmclock is updated if there
has not yet been a successful entry / exit into hardware virt.
Fix this by simply setting last_tsc to the newly read tsc value so
that any computed nsec advance of kvmclock is nulled.

(backported from commit 1d5f066e0b63271b67eac6d3752f8aa96adcbddb)
Kernel time, which advances in discrete steps may progress much slower
than TSC. As a result, when kvmclock is adjusted to a new base, the
apparent time to the guest, which runs at a much higher, nsec scaled
rate based on the current TSC, may have already been observed to have
a larger value (kernel_ns + scaled tsc) than the value to which we are
setting it (kernel_ns + 0).
We must instead compute the clock as potentially observed by the guest
for kernel_ns to make sure it does not go backwards.

(cherry-picked from commit 347bb4448c2155eb2310923ccaa4be5677649003)
The scale_delta function for shift / multiply with 31-bit
precision moves to a common header so it can be used by both
kernel and kvm module.

commit 4d9ef89dee13e964ea8b064d82ff55cf36209237 upstream.
The dts-installed variable is initialised using a wildcard path that
will be expanded relative to the build directory. Use the existing
variable dtstree to generate an absolute wildcard path that will work
when building in a separate directory.
