Running microcode_init() from setup_arch() is a bad idea because not even kmalloc() is ready at that point and the loader does all kinds of allocations and init/registration with various subsystems. Make it a late initcall when required facilities are initialized so that the microcode driver initialization can succeed too.

Make CONFIG_MICROCODE a bool. It was practically a bool already anyway, since early loader was forcing it to =y.

Commits 65cef131 ("x86, microcode: Add a disable chicken bit") and a18a0f68 ("x86, microcode: Don't initialize microcode code on paravirt") allow microcode driver skip initialization when microcode loading is not permitted. However, they don't prevent the driver from being loaded since the init code returns 0. If at some point later the driver gets unloaded this will result in an oops while trying to deregister the (never registered) device. To avoid this, make init code return an error on paravirt or when microcode loading is disabled. The driver will then never be loaded.

Normally, we do reapply microcode on resume. However, in the cases where that microcode comes from the early loader and the late loader hasn't been utilized yet, there's no easy way for us to go and apply the patch applied during boot by the early loader. Thus, reuse the patch stashed by the early loader for the BSP. Signed-off-by: NBorislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

Paravirtual guests are not expected to load microcode into processors and therefore it is not necessary to initialize microcode loading logic. In fact, under certain circumstances initializing this logic may cause the guest to crash.

First, there was this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88001 The problem there was that microcode patches are not being reapplied after suspend-to-ram. It was important to reapply them, though, because of for example Haswell's TSX erratum which disabled TSX instructions with a microcode patch. A simple fix was fb86b973 ("x86, microcode: Update BSPs microcode on resume") but, as it is often the case, simple fixes are too simple. This one causes 32-bit resume to fail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88391 Properly fixing this would require more involved changes for which it is too late now, right before the merge window. Thus, limit this to 64-bit only temporarily.

In the situation when we apply early microcode but do *not* apply late microcode, we fail to update the BSP's microcode on resume because we haven't initialized the uci->mc microcode pointer. So, in order to alleviate that, we go and dig out the stashed microcode patch during early boot. It is basically the same thing that is done on the APs early during boot so do that too here.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files, and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

The following patch makes the microcode update code path actually invoke the perf_check_microcode() function and thus potentially renabling SNB PEBS. By default, CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE is forced to Y in arch/x86/Kconfig. There is no way to disable this. That means that the code path used in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c did not include the call to perf_check_microcode(). Thus, even though the microcode was updated to a version that fixes the SNB PEBS problem, perf_event would still return EOPNOTSUPP when enabling precise sampling. This patch simply adds a call to perf_check_microcode() in the call path used when OLD_INTERFACE=y.

Remove the uci->mc check on the cpu resume path because the low-level drivers do that anyway. More importantly, though, this fixes a contrived and obscure but still important case. Imagine the following: * boot machine, no new microcode in /lib/firmware * a subset of the CPUs is offlined * in the meantime, user puts new fresh microcode container into /lib/firmware and reloads it by doing $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload * offlined cores come back online and they don't get the newer microcode applied due to this check.

Microcode reloading in a per-core manner is a very bad idea for both major x86 vendors. And the thing is, we have such interface with which we can end up with different microcode versions applied on different cores of an otherwise homogeneous wrt (family,model,stepping) system. So turn off the possibility of doing that per core and allow it only system-wide. This is a minimal fix which we'd like to see in stable too thus the more-or-less arbitrary decision to allow system-wide reloading only on the BSP: $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/microcode/reload ... and disable the interface on the other cores: $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu23/microcode/reload -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument Also, allowing the reload only from one CPU (the BSP in that case) doesn't allow the reload procedure to degenerate into an O(n^2) deal when triggering reloads from all /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/microcode/reload sysfs nodes simultaneously. A more generic fix will follow.

This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are implemented as subsystem interfaces now. After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel. Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

Requesting the microcode from userspace *every time* when onlining CPUs (during a CPU hotplug operation) is unnecessary. Thus, ensure that once the kernel gets the microcode after booting, it is not freed nor invalidated when a CPU goes offline, so that it can be reused when that CPU comes back online, without requesting userspace for it again. As a result, the CPU hotplug operations become faster as well. Signed-off-by: NSrivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: NRafael J.

Currently, microcode doesn't unregister syscore_ops after it's unloaded. So if we modprobe then rmmod microcode, the stale microcode syscore_ops info will stay on syscore_ops_list. Later when we're trying to reboot/halt/shutdown the machine, kernel will panic on syscore_shutdown(). With the patch applied, I can reboot/halt/shutdown my machine successfully.

Some subsystems in the x86 tree need to carry out suspend/resume and shutdown operations with one CPU on-line and interrupts disabled and they define sysdev classes and sysdevs or sysdev drivers for this purpose. This leads to unnecessarily complicated code and excessive memory usage, so switch them to using struct syscore_ops objects for this purpose instead. Generally, there are three categories of subsystems that use sysdevs for implementing PM operations: (1) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks ignore their arguments entirely (the majority), (2) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks use their struct sys_device argument, but don't really need to do that, because they can be implemented differently in an arguably simpler way (io_apic.c), and (3) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks use their struct sys_device argument, but the value of that argument is always the same and could be ignored (microcode_core.c). In all of these cases the subsystems in question may be readily converted to using struct syscore_ops objects for power management and shutdown. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

This adds: alias: devname:<name> to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading of the kernel module when the device node is accessed. Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts. The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory: $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d1-dirty/modules.devname # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading. microcode cpu/microcode c10:184 fuse fuse c10:229 ppp_generic ppp c108:0 tun net/tun c10:200 dm_mod mapper/control c10:235 Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed: $ /sbin/udevd --debug ... static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666 A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor numbers. Note: The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance* device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used. This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to paper-over broken concepts.
