commit f948501b36c6b3d9352ce212a197098a7e958971 upstream.
At present, hard_irq_disable() does nothing on powerpc because of
this code in include/linux/interrupt.h:
#ifndef hard_irq_disable
#define hard_irq_disable() do { } while(0)
#endif
So we need to make our hard_irq_disable be a macro. It was previously
a macro until commit 7230c56441 ("powerpc: Rework lazy-interrupt
handling") changed it to a static inline function.

commit 5e626254206a709c6e937f3dda69bf26c7344f6f upstream.
Xen PV kernels allow access to the APERF/MPERF registers to read the
effective frequency. Access to the MSRs is however redirected to the
currently scheduled physical CPU, making consecutive read and
compares unreliable. In addition each rdmsr traps into the hypervisor.
So to avoid bogus readouts and expensive traps, disable the kernel
internal feature flag for APERF/MPERF if running under Xen.
This will
a) remove the aperfmperf flag from /proc/cpuinfo
b) not mislead the power scheduler (arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sched.c) to
use the feature to improve scheduling (by default disabled)
c) not mislead the cpufreq driver to use the MSRs
This does not cover userland programs which access the MSRs via the
device file interface, but this will be addressed separately.

commit 350ab15bb2ffe7103bc6bf6c634f3c5b286eaf2a upstream.
The statically defined I/O memory regions for the i.MX21 on chip
peripherals and the on board I/O peripherals of the i.MX21ADS board
overlap. This results in a kernel crash during startup. This is fixed
by reducing the memory range for the on board I/O peripherals to the
actually required range.

commit 602bf40971d7f9a1ec0b7ba2b7e6427849828651 upstream.
There is a system hang issue on imx6q which can easily be seen with
running a cpu hotplug stress testing (hotplug secondary cores from
user space via sysfs interface for thousands iterations).
It turns out that the issue is caused by coherency of the cpu that
is being shut down. When shutting down a cpu, we need to have the
cpu exit coherency to prevent it from receiving cache, TLB, or BTB
maintenance operations broadcast by other CPUs in the cluster.
Copy cpu_enter_lowpower() and cpu_leave_lowpower() from mach-vexpress
to have coherency properly handled in platform_cpu_die(), thus fix
the issue.

commit 7c8d51848a88aafdb68f42b6b650c83485ea2f84 upstream.
The 32 bit variant of cbc(aes) decrypt is using instructions requiring
128 bit aligned memory locations but fails to ensure this constraint in
the code. Fix this by loading the data into intermediate registers with
load unaligned instructions.
This fixes reported general protection faults related to aesni.

commit f227d4306cf30e1d5b6f231e8ef9006c34f3d186 upstream.
Currently, the APIC LVT interrupt for error thresholding is implicitly
enabled. However, there are models in the F15h range which do not enable
it. Make the code machinery which sets up the APIC interrupt support
an optional setting and add an ->interrupt_capable member to the bank
representation mirroring that capability and enable the interrupt offset
programming only if it is true.
Simplify code and fixup comment style while at it.

commit d5d2d2eea84b0d8450b082edbc3dbde41fb8bfd8 upstream.
The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.
But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

commit 3c75296562f43e6fbc6cddd3de948a7b3e4e9bcf upstream.
This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.
According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.
This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.
The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.
I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

commit 860aed25a1f0936d4852ab936252b47cd1e630f1 upstream.
This reverts 68568add2c ("powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check
of decrementer expiration"). We do need to check whether we have reached
the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early
decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(). The effect of not having the sanity check is that
if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to
its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer
interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase
frequency). I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray
hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest.
This isn't quite a straight revert because of changes to the surrounding
code, but it restores the same algorithm as was previously used.

commit c0525a6972d3f1fb83058ef503e183475d6e4e26 upstream.
When an NMI goes off and it sees that it preempted the debug stack,
to keep the debug stack safe, it changes the IDT to point to one that
does not modify the stack on breakpoint (to allow breakpoints in NMIs).
But the variable that gets set to know to undo it on exit never gets
cleared on exit. Thus every NMI will reset it on exit the first time
it is done even if it does not need to be reset.

commit bad1a753d4d4deb09d4bc0bac1dd4fc3298502e9 upstream.
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.

Author: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>
[PARISC] fix PA1.1 oops on boot
Didn't quite fix the crash on boot. It moved it from PA1.1 processors to
PA2.0 narrow kernels. The final fix is to make sure the [id]tlb_miss_20 paths
also work. Even on narrow systems, these paths require using the wide
instructions becuase the tlb insertion format is wide. Fix this by
conditioning the dep[wd],z on whether we're being called from _11 or _20[w]
paths.

before .text
commit ed5fb2471b7060767957fb964eb1aaec71533ab1 upstream.
In certain configurations, the resulting kernel becomes too large to boot
because the linker places the long branch stubs for the merged .text section
at the very start of the image. As a result, the initial transfer of control
jumps to an unexpected location. Fix this by placing the head text in a
separate section so the stubs for .text are not at the start of the image.

commit 59516b07b4ffa7e607a5787674ea3c405f1b390c upstream.
The microblaze architecture does not provide a native GPIO API implementation
nor requires GPIOLIB, but still selects GENERIC_GPIO by default. As a result the
following build error occurs, if GPIOLIB is not selected:
include/asm-generic/gpio.h: In function 'gpio_get_value_cansleep':
include/asm-generic/gpio.h:218: error: implicit declaration of function '__gpio_get_value'
include/asm-generic/gpio.h: In function 'gpio_set_value_cansleep':
include/asm-generic/gpio.h:224: error: implicit declaration of function '__gpio_set_value'
This patch addresses the issue by not selecting GENERIC_GPIO by default. This
causes the GPIO API to be stubbed out if no implementation is provided.

commit 435a7ef52db7d86e67a009b36cac1457f8972391 upstream.
We can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling flush_cache_user_range
because the flush can fault. If we fault on a user address, the
page fault handler will try to take mmap_sem again. Since both places
acquire the read lock, most of the time it succeeds. However, if another
thread tries to acquire the write lock on the mmap_sem (e.g. mmap) in
between the call to flush_cache_user_range and the fault, the down_read
in do_page_fault will deadlock.

commit ea17e7414bc62e8d3bde8d08e3df1d921c518c17 upstream.
The symbol jiffies is created in the linker script as an alias to
jiffies_64. Unfortunately this is done outside any section, and
apparently GNU ld 2.21 doesn't carry the section with it, so we end up
with an absolute symbol and therefore a broken kernel.
Add jiffies and jiffies_64 to the whitelist.
The most disturbing bit with this discovery is that it shows that we
have had multiple linker bugs in this area crossing multiple
generations, and have been silently building bad kernels for some time.

commit fd952815307f0f272bf49fd364a7fd2f9992bc42 upstream.
As noted in checkin:
a3e854d95 x86, relocs: Workaround for binutils 2.22.52.0.1 section bug
ld version 2.22.52.0.[12] can incorrectly promote relative symbols to
absolute, if the output section they appear in is otherwise empty.
Since checkin:
6520fe55 x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool
we actually check for this and error out rather than silently creating
a kernel which will malfunction if relocated.
Ingo found a configuration in which __start_builtin_fw triggered the
warning.
Go through the linker script sources and look for more symbols that
could plausibly get bogusly promoted to absolute, and add them to the
whitelist.
In general, if the following error triggers:
Invalid absolute R_386_32 relocation: <symbol>
... then we should verify that <symbol> is really meant to be
relocated, and add it and any related symbols manually to the S_REL
regexp.
Please note that 6520fe55 does not introduce the error, only the check
for the error -- without 6520fe55 this version of ld will simply
produce a corrupt kernel if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set on x86-32.

commit 45de6767dc51358a188f75dc4ad9dfddb7fb9480 upstream.
Use the 32-bit compat keyctl() syscall wrapper on Sparc64 for Sparc32 binary
compatibility.
Without this, keyctl(KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE_IOV) is liable to malfunction as it
uses an iovec array read from userspace - though the kernel should survive this
as it checks pointers and sizes anyway.
I think all the other keyctl() function should just work, provided (a) the top
32-bits of each 64-bit argument register are cleared prior to invoking the
syscall routine, and the 32-bit address space is right at the 0-end of the
64-bit address space. Most of the arguments are 32-bit anyway, and so for
those clearing is not required.

commit 9cd75e13de2dcf32ecc21c7f277cff3c0ced059e upstream.
commit 771dae818 (powerpc/cpuidle: Add cpu_idle_wait() to allow
switching of idle routines) implemented cpu_idle_wait() for powerpc.
The changelog says:
"The equivalent routine for x86 is in arch/x86/kernel/process.c
but the powerpc implementation is different.":
Unfortunately the changelog is completely useless as it does not tell
_WHY_ it is different.
Aside of being different the implementation is patently wrong.
The rescheduling IPI is async. That means that there is no guarantee,
that the other cores have executed the IPI when cpu_idle_wait()
returns. But that's the whole purpose of this function: to guarantee
that no CPU uses the old idle handler anymore.
Use the smp_functional_call() based implementation, which fulfils the
requirements.
[ This code is going to replaced by a core version to remove all the
pointless copies in arch/*, but this one should go to stable ]

commit d5e50a51ccbda36b379aba9d1131a852eb908dda upstream.
When setting the current task state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE this can
race with a different cpu. The other cpu could set the task state after
it inspected it (while it was still TASK_RUNNING) to TASK_RUNNING which
would change the state from TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE to TASK_RUNNING again.
This race was always present in the pfault interrupt code but didn't
cause anything harmful before commit f2db2e6c "[S390] pfault: cpu hotplug
vs missing completion interrupts" which relied on the fact that after
setting the task state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE the task would really
sleep.
Since this is not necessarily the case the result may be a list corruption
of the pfault_list or, as observed, a use-after-free bug while trying to
access the task_struct of a task which terminated itself already.
To fix this, we need to get a reference of the affected task when receiving
the initial pfault interrupt and add special handling if we receive yet
another initial pfault interrupt when the task is already enqueued in the
pfault list.

Pull x86 linker bug workarounds from Peter Anvin.
GNU ld-2.22.52.0.[12] (*) has an unfortunate bug where it incorrectly
turns certain relocation entries absolute. Section-relative symbols
that are part of otherwise empty sections are silently changed them to
absolute. We rely on section-relative symbols staying section-relative,
and actually have several sections in the linker script solely for this
purpose.
See for example
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14052
We could just black-list the buggy linker, but it appears that it got
shipped in at least F17, and possibly other distros too, so it's sadly
not some rare unusual case.
This backports the workaround from the x86/trampoline branch, and as
Peter says: "This is not a minimal fix, not at all, but it is a tested
code base."

When the relocs tool throws an error, let the error message say if it
is an absolute or relative symbol. This should make it a lot more
clear what action the programmer needs to take and should help us find
the reason if additional symbol bugs show up.

GNU ld 2.22.52.0.1 has a bug that it blindly changes symbols from
section-relative to absolute if they are in a section of zero length.
This turns the symbols __init_begin and __init_end into absolute
symbols. Let the relocs program know that those should be treated as
relative symbols.

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.
In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.
16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.
The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.
[ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute
relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently
produces bad kernels. ]

Some discussion with the glibc mailing lists revealed that this was
necessary for 64-bit platforms with MIPS-like sign-extension rules
for 32-bit values. The original symptom was that passing (uid_t)-1 to
setreuid() was failing in programs linked -pthread because of the "setxid"
mechanism for passing setxid-type function arguments to the syscall code.
SYSCALL_WRAPPERS handles ensuring that all syscall arguments end up with
proper sign-extension and is thus the appropriate fix for this problem.
On other platforms (s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips) this was fixed
in 2.6.28.6. The general issue is tracked as CVE-2009-0029.

Commit 41101809a865 ("fork: Provide weak arch_release_[task_struct|

where it has needles prototypes for alloc_task_struct_node and
free_task_struct. This now shows up as:
kernel/fork.c:120:66: error: static declaration of 'alloc_task_struct_node' follows non-static declaration
kernel/fork.c:127:51: error: static declaration of 'free_task_struct' follows non-static declaration
since that commit turned them into real functions. Since arch/frv does
does not define define __HAVE_ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ALLOCATOR (i.e. it just
uses the generic ones) it shouldn't list these at all.

Commit ff9a184c ("ARM: 7400/1: vfp: clear fpscr length and stride bits
on entry to sig handler") flushes the VFP state prior to entering a
signal handler so that a VFP operation inside the handler will trap and
force a restore of ABI-compliant registers. Reflushing and disabling VFP
on the sigreturn path is predicated on the saved thread state indicating
that VFP was used by the handler -- however for SMP platforms this is
only set on context-switch, making the check unreliable and causing VFP
register corruption in userspace since the register values are not
necessarily those restored from the sigframe.
This patch unconditionally flushes the VFP state after a signal handler.
Since we already perform the flush before the handler and the flushing
itself happens lazily, the redundant flush when VFP is not used by the
handler is essentially a nop.

A zero value for prot_sect in the memory types table implies that
section mappings should never be created for the memory type in question.
This is checked for in alloc_init_section().
With LPAE, we set a bit to mask access flag faults for kernel mappings.
This breaks the aforementioned (!prot_sect) check in alloc_init_section().
This patch fixes this bug by first checking for a non-zero
prot_sect before setting the PMD_SECT_AF flag.
