commit f75b1b1bedfb498cc43a992ce4d7ed8df3b1e770 upstream.
UML needs it's own probe_kernel_read() to handle kernel
mode faults correctly.
The implementation uses mincore() on the host side to detect
whether a page is owned by the UML kernel process.
This fixes also a possible crash when sysrq-t is used.
Starting with 3.10 sysrq-t calls probe_kernel_read() to
read details from the kernel workers. As kernel worker are
completely async pointers may turn NULL while reading them.

commit a1191927ace7e6f827132aa9e062779eb3f11fa5 upstream.
The watchdog device on the AR933x is connected to
the AHB clock, however the current code uses the
reference clock. Due to the wrong rate, the watchdog
driver can't calculate correct register values for
a given timeout value and the watchdog unexpectedly
restarts the system.
The code uses the wrong value since the initial
commit 04225e1d227c8e68d685936ecf42ac175fec0e54
(MIPS: ath79: add AR933X specific clock init)
The patch fixes the code to use the correct clock
rate to avoid the problem.

commit 8f898fbbe5ee5e20a77c4074472a1fd088dc47d1 upstream.
Dick Fowles, Don Zickus and Joe Mario have been working on
improvements to perf, and noticed heavy cache line contention
on the mm_cpumask, running linpack on a 60 core / 120 thread
system.
The cause turned out to be unnecessary atomic accesses to the
mm_cpumask. When in lazy TLB mode, the CPU is only removed from
the mm_cpumask if there is a TLB flush event.
Most of the time, no such TLB flush happens, and the kernel
skips the TLB reload. It can also skip the atomic memory
set & test.
Here is a summary of Joe's test results:
* The __schedule function dropped from 24% of all program cycles down
to 5.5%.
* The cacheline contention/hotness for accesses to that bitmask went
from being the 1st/2nd hottest - down to the 84th hottest (0.3% of
all shared misses which is now quite cold)
* The average load latency for the bit-test-n-set instruction in
__schedule dropped from 10k-15k cycles down to an average of 600 cycles.
* The linpack program results improved from 133 GFlops to 144 GFlops.
Peak GFlops rose from 133 to 153.

commit 0ca06c0857aee11911f91621db14498496f2c2cd upstream.
The 0x1000 bit of the MCACOD field of machine check MCi_STATUS
registers is only defined for corrected errors (where it means
that hardware may be filtering errors see SDM section 15.9.2.1).
For uncorrected errors it may, or may not be set - so we should mask
it out when checking for the architecturaly defined recoverable
error signatures (see SDM 15.9.3.1 and 15.9.3.2)

commit bd1c149aa9915b9abb6d83d0f01dfd2ace0680b5 upstream.
For performance reasons, when SMAP is in use, SMAP is left open for an
entire put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch(); block, however, calling
__put_user() in the middle of that block will close SMAP as the
STAC..CLAC constructs intentionally do not nest.
Furthermore, using __put_user() rather than put_user_ex() here is bad
for performance.
Thus, introduce new [compat_]save_altstack_ex() helpers that replace
__[compat_]save_altstack() for x86, being currently the only
architecture which supports put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch().

commit 99f2b130370b904ca5300079243fdbcafa2c708b upstream.
The SMAP register offsets in the versatile PCI controller code were
all off by four. (This didn't have any observable bad effects
because on this board PHYS_OFFSET is zero, and (a) writing zero to
the flags register at offset 0x10 has no effect and (b) the reset
value of the SMAP register is zero anyway, so failing to write SMAP2
didn't matter.)

commit 829f9fedee30cde2ec15e88d57ec11074db791e2 upstream.
The versatile PCI controller code was confused between the
PCI I/O window (at 0x43000000) and the first PCI memory
window (at 0x44000000). Pass the correct base address to
pci_remap_io() so that PCI I/O accesses work.
Since the first PCI memory window isn't used at all (it's
an odd size), rename the associated variables and labels
so that it's clear that it isn't related to the I/O window.
This has been tested and confirmed to fix PCI I/O accesses
both on physical PB926+PCI backplane hardware and on QEMU.

commit f9b71fef12f0d6ac5c7051cfd87f7700f78c56b6 upstream.
The PCI controller code for the Versatile board has never had the
correct IRQ mapping for hardware. For many years it had an odd
mapping ("all interrupts are int 27") which aligned with the
equivalent bug in QEMU. However as of commit 1bc39ac5dab265
the mapping changed and no longer matched either hardware or QEMU,
with the result that any PCI card beyond the first in QEMU would
not have functioning interrupts; for example a boot with a SCSI
controller would time out as follows:
------------
sym0: <895a> rev 0x0 at pci 0000:00:0d.0 irq 92
sym0: SCSI BUS has been reset.
scsi0 : sym-2.2.3
[...]
scsi 0:0:0:0: ABORT operation started
scsi 0:0:0:0: ABORT operation timed-out.
scsi 0:0:0:0: DEVICE RESET operation started
scsi 0:0:0:0: DEVICE RESET operation timed-out.
scsi 0:0:0:0: BUS RESET operation started
scsi 0:0:0:0: BUS RESET operation timed-out.
scsi 0:0:0:0: HOST RESET operation started
sym0: SCSI BUS has been reset
------------
Fix the mapping so that it matches real hardware (checked against the
schematics for PB926 and backplane, and tested against the hardware).
This allows PCI cards using interrupts to work on hardware for the
first time; this change will also work with QEMU 1.5 or later, where
the equivalent bugs in the modelling of the hardware have been fixed.
Although QEMU will attempt to autodetect whether the kernel is
expecting the long-standing "everything is int 27" mapping or the one
hardware has, for certainty we force it into "definitely behave like
hardware mode"; this will avoid unexpected surprises later if we
implement sparse irqs. This is harmless on hardware.
Thanks to Paul Gortmaker for bisecting the problem and finding an initial
solution, to Russell King for providing the correct interrupt mapping,
and to Guenter Roeck for providing an initial version of this patch
and prodding me into relocating the hardware and retesting everything.

commit 363edbe2614aa90df706c0f19ccfa2a6c06af0be upstream.
When adding cpuidle support to pSeries, we introduced two
regressions:
- The new cpuidle backend driver only works under hypervisors
supporting the "SLPLAR" option, which isn't the case of the
old POWER4 hypervisor and the HV "light" used on js2x blades
- The cpuidle driver registers fairly late, meaning that for
a significant portion of the boot process, we end up having
all threads spinning. This slows down the boot process and
increases the overall resource usage if the hypervisor has
shared processors.
This fixes both by implementing a "default" idle that will cede
to the hypervisor when possible, in a very simple way without
all the bells and whisles of cpuidle.

commit 230aef7a6a23b6166bd4003bfff5af23c9bd381f upstream.
Normally when we haven't implemented an alignment handler for
a load or store instruction the process will be terminated.
The alignment handler uses the DSISR (or a pseudo one) to locate
the right handler. Unfortunately ldbrx and stdbrx overlap lfs and
stfs so we incorrectly think ldbrx is an lfs and stdbrx is an
stfs.
This bug is particularly nasty - instead of terminating the
process we apply an incorrect fixup and continue on.
With more and more overlapping instructions we should stop
creating a pseudo DSISR and index using the instruction directly,
but for now add a special case to catch ldbrx/stdbrx.

commit 4784955a5270f30c569fa95899979fd1805caf6c upstream.
Add misssing braces to hole calculation. This resulted in an addition
instead of an substraction. Which in turn means that the jit compiler
could try to write out of bounds of the allocated piece of memory.
This bug was introduced with aa2d2c73 "s390/bpf,jit: address randomize
and write protect jit code".

Pull powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here are 3 bug fixes that should probably go into 3.11 since I'm also
tagging them for stable.
Once fixes our old /proc/powerpc/lparcfg file which provides partition
informations when running under our hypervisor and also acts as a
user-triggerable Oops when hot :-(
The other two respectively are a one liner to fix a HVSI protocol
handshake problem causing the console to fail to show up on a bunch of
machines until we reach userspace, which I deem annoying enough to
warrant going to stable, and a nasty gcc miscompile causing us to pass
virtual instead of physical addresses to the firmware under some
circumstances"
* 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc:
powerpc/hvsi: Increase handshake timeout from 200ms to 400ms.
powerpc: Work around gcc miscompilation of __pa() on 64-bit
powerpc: Don't Oops when accessing /proc/powerpc/lparcfg without hypervisor
|
|
On 64-bit, __pa(&static_var) gets miscompiled by recent versions of
gcc as something like:
addis 3,2,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@ha
addi 3,3,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@l
This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits
are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top
nibble. This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least.
To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator,
and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator. Using an AND
operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code
since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it
takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add
it on. (Note that MEMORY_START is always 0 on 64-bit.)

/proc/powerpc/lparcfg is an ancient facility (though still actively used)
which allows access to some informations relative to the partition when
running underneath a PAPR compliant hypervisor.
It makes no sense on non-pseries machines. However, currently, not only
can it be created on these if the kernel has pseries support, but accessing
it on such a machine will crash due to trying to do hypervisor calls.
In fact, it should also not do HV calls on older pseries that didn't have
an hypervisor either.
Finally, it has the plumbing to be a module but is a "bool" Kconfig option.
This fixes the whole lot by turning it into a machine_device_initcall
that is only created on pseries, and adding the necessary hypervisor
check before calling the H_GET_EM_PARMS hypercall

This reverts commit df54d6fa54275ce59660453e29d1228c2b45a826.
The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.
In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774
So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

This fixes a regression exposed during the merge window by commit
9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS regulator GPIO polarity in DT"; namely that
USB VBUS doesn't get turned on, so USB devices are not detected. This
affects the internal USB port on TrimSlice (i.e. the USB->SATA bridge, to
which the SSD is connected) and the external port(s) on Seaboard/
Springbank and Whistler.
The Tegra DT as written in v3.11 allows two paths to enable USB VBUS:
1) Via the legacy DT binding for the USB controller; it can directly
acquire a VBUS GPIO and activate it.
2) Via a regulator for VBUS, which is referenced by the new DT binding
for the USB controller.
Those two methods both use the same GPIO, and hence whichever of the
USB controller and regulator gets probed first ends up owning the GPIO.
In practice, the USB driver only supports path (1) above, since the
patches to support the new USB binding are not present until v3.12:-(
In practice, the regulator ends up being probed first and owning the
GPIO. Since nothing enables the regulator (the USB driver code is not
yet present), the regulator ends up being turned off. This originally
caused no problem, because the polarity in the regulator definition was
incorrect, so attempting to turn off the regulator actually turned it
on, and everything worked:-(
However, when testing the new USB driver code in v3.12, I noticed the
incorrect polarity and fixed it in commit 9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS
regulator GPIO polarity in DT". In the context of v3.11, this patch then
caused the USB VBUS to actually turn off, which broke USB ports with VBUS
control. I got this patch included in v3.11-rc1 since it fixed a bug in
device tree (incorrect polarity specification), and hence was suitable to
be included early in the rc series. I evidently did not test the patch at
all, or correctly, in the context of v3.11, and hence did not notice the
issue that I have explained above:-(
Fix this by making the USB VBUS regulators always enabled. This way, if
the regulator owns the GPIO, it will always be turned on, even if there
is no USB driver code to request the regulator be turned on. Even
ignoring this bug, this is a reasonable way to configure the HW anyway.
If this patch is applied to v3.11, it will cause a couple pretty trivial
conflicts in tegra20-{trimslice,seaboard}.dts when creating v3.12, since
the context right above the added lines changed in patches destined for
v3.12.

An older PVHVM guest (v3.0 based) crashed during vCPU hot-plug with:
kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!
RCU has detected that a CPU has not entered a quiescent state within the
grace period. It needs to send the CPU a reschedule IPI if it is not
offline. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() does this check:
/*
* If the CPU is offline, it is in a quiescent state. We can
* trust its state not to change because interrupts are disabled.
*/
if (cpu_is_offline(rdp->cpu)) {
rdp->offline_fqs++;
return 1;
}
Else the CPU is online. Send it a reschedule IPI.
The CPU is in the middle of being hot-plugged and has been marked online
(!cpu_is_offline()). See start_secondary():
set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true);
...
per_cpu(cpu_state, smp_processor_id()) = CPU_ONLINE;
start_secondary() then waits for the CPU bringing up the hot-plugged CPU to
mark it as active:
/*
* Wait until the cpu which brought this one up marked it
* online before enabling interrupts. If we don't do that then
* we can end up waking up the softirq thread before this cpu
* reached the active state, which makes the scheduler unhappy
* and schedule the softirq thread on the wrong cpu. This is
* only observable with forced threaded interrupts, but in
* theory it could also happen w/o them. It's just way harder
* to achieve.
*/
while (!cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), cpu_active_mask))
cpu_relax();
/* enable local interrupts */
local_irq_enable();
The CPU being hot-plugged will be marked active after it has been fully
initialized by the CPU managing the hot-plug. In the Xen PVHVM case
xen_smp_intr_init() is called to set up the hot-plugged vCPU's
XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.
The hot-plugging CPU is marked online, not marked active and does not have
its IPI vectors set up. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() sees the hot-plugging
cpu is !cpu_is_offline() and tries to send it a reschedule IPI:
This will lead to:
kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!
xen_send_IPI_one()
xen_smp_send_reschedule()
rcu_implicit_offline_qs()
rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs()
force_qs_rnp()
force_quiescent_state()
__rcu_process_callbacks()
rcu_process_callbacks()
__do_softirq()
call_softirq()
do_softirq()
irq_exit()
xen_evtchn_do_upcall()
because xen_send_IPI_one() will attempt to use an uninitialized IRQ for
the XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.
There is at least one other place that has caused the same crash:
xen_smp_send_reschedule()
wake_up_idle_cpu()
add_timer_on()
clocksource_watchdog()
call_timer_fn()
run_timer_softirq()
__do_softirq()
call_softirq()
do_softirq()
irq_exit()
xen_evtchn_do_upcall()
xen_hvm_callback_vector()
clocksource_watchdog() uses cpu_online_mask to pick the next CPU to handle
a watchdog timer:
/*
* Cycle through CPUs to check if the CPUs stay synchronized
* to each other.
*/
next_cpu = cpumask_next(raw_smp_processor_id(), cpu_online_mask);
if (next_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids)
next_cpu = cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask);
watchdog_timer.expires += WATCHDOG_INTERVAL;
add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, next_cpu);
This resulted in an attempt to send an IPI to a hot-plugging CPU that
had not initialized its reschedule vector. One option would be to make
the RCU code check to not check for CPU offline but for CPU active.
As becoming active is done after a CPU is online (in older kernels).
But Srivatsa pointed out that "the cpu_active vs cpu_online ordering has been
completely reworked - in the online path, cpu_active is set *before* cpu_online,
and also, in the cpu offline path, the cpu_active bit is reset in the CPU_DYING
notification instead of CPU_DOWN_PREPARE." Drilling in this the bring-up
path: "[brought up CPU].. send out a CPU_STARTING notification, and in response
to that, the scheduler sets the CPU in the cpu_active_mask. Again, this mask
is better left to the scheduler alone, since it has the intelligence to use it
judiciously."
The conclusion was that:
"
1. At the IPI sender side:
It is incorrect to send an IPI to an offline CPU (cpu not present in
the cpu_online_mask). There are numerous places where we check this
and warn/complain.
2. At the IPI receiver side:
It is incorrect to let the world know of our presence (by setting
ourselves in global bitmasks) until our initialization steps are complete
to such an extent that we can handle the consequences (such as
receiving interrupts without crashing the sender etc.)
" (from Srivatsa)
As the native code enables the interrupts at some point we need to be
able to service them. In other words a CPU must have valid IPI vectors
if it has been marked online.
It doesn't need to handle the IPI (interrupts may be disabled) but needs
to have valid IPI vectors because another CPU may find it in cpu_online_mask
and attempt to send it an IPI.
This patch will change the order of the Xen vCPU bring-up functions so that
Xen vectors have been set up before start_secondary() is called.
It also will not continue to bring up a Xen vCPU if xen_smp_intr_init() fails
to initialize it.

If there are UNUSABLE regions in the machine memory map, dom0 will
attempt to map them 1:1 which is not permitted by Xen and the kernel
will crash.
There isn't anything interesting in the UNUSABLE region that the dom0
kernel needs access to so we can avoid making the 1:1 mapping and
treat it as RAM.
We only do this for dom0, as that is where tboot case shows up.
A PV domU could have an UNUSABLE region in its pseudo-physical map
and would need to be handled in another patch.
This fixes a boot failure on hosts with tboot.
tboot marks a region in the e820 map as unusable and the dom0 kernel
would attempt to map this region and Xen does not permit unusable
regions to be mapped by guests.

Before that, we had the maping from [0,512M) in head_64.S, and we
can spare two pages [0-1M). After that change, we can not reuse
pages anymore.
When we have more than 512M ram, we need an extra page for pgd page
with [512G, 1024g).
Increase pages in BRK for page table to solve the boot crash.
