For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e8 ("perf/x86: Add Intel LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT. However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS events. This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of intel_pebs_constraints(). We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and x86_get_event_constraint().

When I wrote the opportunistic SYSRET code, I missed an important difference between SYSRET and IRET. Both instructions are capable of setting EFLAGS.TF, but they behave differently when doing so: - IRET will not issue a #DB trap after execution when it sets TF. This is critical -- otherwise you'd never be able to make forward progress when returning to userspace. - SYSRET, on the other hand, will trap with #DB immediately after returning to CPL3, and the next instruction will never execute. This breaks anything that opportunistically SYSRETs to a user context with TF set. For example, running this code with TF set and a SIGTRAP handler loaded never gets past 'post_nop': extern unsigned char post_nop[]; asm volatile ("pushfq\n\t" "popq %%r11\n\t" "nop\n\t" "post_nop:" : : "c" (post_nop) : "r11"); In my defense, I can't find this documented in the AMD or Intel manual. Fix it by using IRET to restore TF.

The ASRock Q1900DC-ITX mainboard (Baytrail-D) hangs randomly in both BIOS and UEFI mode while rebooting unless reboot=pci is used. Add a quirk to reboot via the pci method. The problem is very intermittent and hard to debug, it might succeed rebooting just fine 40 times in a row - but fails half a dozen times the next day. It seems to be slightly less common in BIOS CSM mode than native UEFI (with the CSM disabled), but it does happen in either mode. Since I've started testing this patch in late january, rebooting has been 100% reliable. Most of the time it already hangs during POST, but occasionally it might even make it through the bootloader and the kernel might even start booting, but then hangs before the mode switch. The same symptoms occur with grub-efi, gummiboot and grub-pc, just as well as (at least) kernel 3.16-3.19 and 4.0-rc6 (I haven't tried older kernels than 3.16). Upgrading to the most current mainboard firmware of the ASRock Q1900DC-ITX, version 1.20, does not improve the situation. ( Searching the web seems to suggest that other Bay Trail-D mainboards might be affected as well. ) -- Signed-off-by: NStefan Lippers-Hollmann <s.l-h@gmx.de> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150330224427.0fb58e42@mirSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

This reverts commit: f47233c2 ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation") The main reason for the revert is that the new boot flag does not work at all currently, and in order to make this work, we need non-trivial changes to the x86 boot code which we didn't manage to get done in time for merging. And even if we did, they would've been too risky so instead of rushing things and break booting 4.1 on boxes left and right, we will be very strict and conservative and will take our time with this to fix and test it properly.

math_state_restore() assumes it is called with irqs disabled, but this is not true if the caller is __restore_xstate_sig(). This means that if ia32_fxstate == T and __copy_from_user() fails, __restore_xstate_sig() returns with irqs disabled too. This triggers: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rwsem.c:41 dump_stack ___might_sleep ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore __might_sleep down_read ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore print_vma_addr signal_fault sys32_rt_sigreturn Change __restore_xstate_sig() to call set_used_math() unconditionally. This avoids enabling and disabling interrupts in math_state_restore(). If copy_from_user() fails, we can simply do fpu_finit() by hand.

Commit: 1e02ce4c ("x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4") added a shadow CR4 such that reads and writes that do not modify the CR4 execute much faster than always reading the register itself. The change modified cpu_init() in common.c, so that the shadow CR4 gets initialized before anything uses it. Unfortunately, there's two cpu_init()s in common.c. There's one for 64-bit and one for 32-bit. The commit only added the shadow init to the 64-bit path, but the 32-bit path needs the init too.

Hypercalls submitted by user space tools via the privcmd driver can take a long time (potentially many 10s of seconds) if the hypercall has many sub-operations. A fully preemptible kernel may deschedule such as task in any upcall called from a hypercall continuation. However, in a kernel with voluntary or no preemption, hypercall continuations in Xen allow event handlers to be run but the task issuing the hypercall will not be descheduled until the hypercall is complete and the ioctl returns to user space. These long running tasks may also trigger the kernel's soft lockup detection. Add xen_preemptible_hcall_begin() and xen_preemptible_hcall_end() to bracket hypercalls that may be preempted. Use these in the privcmd driver. When returning from an upcall, call xen_maybe_preempt_hcall() which adds a schedule point if if the current task was within a preemptible hypercall. Since _cond_resched() can move the task to a different CPU, clear and set xen_in_preemptible_hcall around the call.

can_probe() checks if the given address points to the beginning of an instruction. It analyzes all the instructions from the beginning of the function until the given address. The code might be modified by another Kprobe. In this case, the current code is read into a buffer, int3 breakpoint is replaced by the saved opcode in the buffer, and can_probe() analyzes the buffer instead. There is a bug that __recover_probed_insn() tries to restore the original code even for Kprobes using the ftrace framework. But in this case, the opcode is not stored. See the difference between arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_kprobe_ftrace(). The opcode is stored by arch_copy_kprobe() only from arch_prepare_kprobe(). This patch makes Kprobe to use the ideal 5-byte NOP when the code can be modified by ftrace. It is the original instruction, see ftrace_make_nop() and ftrace_nop_replace(). Note that we always need to use the NOP for ftrace locations. Kprobes do not block ftrace and the instruction might get modified at anytime. It might even be in an inconsistent state because it is modified step by step using the int3 breakpoint. The patch also fixes indentation of the touched comment. Note that I found this problem when playing with Kprobes. I did it on x86_64 with gcc-4.8.3 that supported -mfentry. I modified samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c and added offset 5 to put the probe right after the fentry area: static struct kprobe kp = { .symbol_name = "do_fork", + .offset = 5, }; Then I was able to load kprobe_example before jprobe_example but not the other way around: $> modprobe jprobe_example $> modprobe kprobe_example modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kprobe_example': Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character It did not make much sense and debugging pointed to the bug described above.

Commit: e2b32e67 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address") makes the base address for module to be unconditionally randomized in case when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is defined and "nokaslr" option isn't present on the commandline. This is not consistent with how choose_kernel_location() decides whether it will randomize kernel load base. Namely, CONFIG_HIBERNATION disables kASLR (unless "kaslr" option is explicitly specified on kernel commandline), which makes the state space larger than what module loader is looking at. IOW CONFIG_HIBERNATION && CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is a valid config option, kASLR wouldn't be applied by default in that case, but module loader is not aware of that. Instead of fixing the logic in module.c, this patch takes more generic aproach. It introduces a new bootparam setup data_type SETUP_KASLR and uses that to pass the information whether kaslr has been applied during kernel decompression, and sets a global 'kaslr_enabled' variable accordingly, so that any kernel code (module loading, livepatching, ...) can make decisions based on its value. x86 module loader is converted to make use of this flag.

Their setting is ignored anyway - we check the bitmap against OPCODE1(insn), not against first byte. Keeping them set to 0 only confuses code reader with "why we don't support that opcode" question. Thus: enable bytes c4,c5 in 64-bit mode (VEX prefixes). Byte 62 (EVEX prefix) is not yet enabled since insn decoder does not support that yet. For 32-bit mode, enable probing of opcodes 63 (arpl) and d6 (salc). They don't require any special handling. For 64-bit mode, disable 9a and ea - these undefined opcodes were mistakenly left enabled.

After adding these, it's clear we have some awkward choices there. Some valid instructions are prohibited from uprobing while several invalid ones are allowed. Hopefully future edits to the good-opcode tables will fix wrong bits or explain why those bits are not wrong. No actual code changes.

When an interrupt is migrated away from a cpu it will stay in its vector_irq array until smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt succeeded. The cfg->move_in_progress flag is cleared already when the IPI was sent. When the interrupt is destroyed after migration its 'struct irq_desc' is freed and the vector_irq arrays are cleaned up. But since cfg->move_in_progress is already 0 the references at cpus before the last migration will not be cleared. So this would leave a reference to an already destroyed irq alive. When the cpu is taken down at this point, the check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() function finds a valid irq number in the vector_irq array, but gets NULL for its descriptor and dereferences it, causing a kernel panic. This has been observed on real systems at shutdown. Add a check to check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() for a valid 'struct irq_desc' to prevent this issue.

Commit b568b860 ("Treat SCI interrupt as normal GSI interrupt") accidently removes support of legacy PIC interrupt when fixing a regression for Xen, which causes a nasty regression on HP/Compaq nc6000 where we fail to register the ACPI interrupt, and thus lose eg. thermal notifications leading a potentially overheated machine. So reintroduce support of legacy PIC based ACPI SCI interrupt.

Paravirt spinlock clears slowpath flag after doing unlock. As explained by Linus currently it does: prev = *lock; add_smp(&lock->tickets.head, TICKET_LOCK_INC); /* add_smp() is a full mb() */ if (unlikely(lock->tickets.tail & TICKET_SLOWPATH_FLAG)) __ticket_unlock_slowpath(lock, prev); which is *exactly* the kind of things you cannot do with spinlocks, because after you've done the "add_smp()" and released the spinlock for the fast-path, you can't access the spinlock any more. Exactly because a fast-path lock might come in, and release the whole data structure. Linus suggested that we should not do any writes to lock after unlock(), and we can move slowpath clearing to fastpath lock. So this patch implements the fix with: 1. Moving slowpath flag to head (Oleg): Unlocked locks don't care about the slowpath flag; therefore we can keep it set after the last unlock, and clear it again on the first (try)lock. -- this removes the write after unlock. note that keeping slowpath flag would result in unnecessary kicks. By moving the slowpath flag from the tail to the head ticket we also avoid the need to access both the head and tail tickets on unlock. 2. use xadd to avoid read/write after unlock that checks the need for unlock_kick (Linus): We further avoid the need for a read-after-release by using xadd; the prev head value will include the slowpath flag and indicate if we need to do PV kicking of suspended spinners -- on modern chips xadd isn't (much) more expensive than an add + load.

This feature let us to detect accesses out of bounds of global variables. This will work as for globals in kernel image, so for globals in modules. Currently this won't work for symbols in user-specified sections (e.g. __init, __read_mostly, ...) The idea of this is simple. Compiler increases each global variable by redzone size and add constructors invoking __asan_register_globals() function. Information about global variable (address, size, size with redzone ...) passed to __asan_register_globals() so we could poison variable's redzone. This patch also forces module_alloc() to return 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned address making shadow memory handling ( kasan_module_alloc()/kasan_module_free() ) more simple. Such alignment guarantees that each shadow page backing modules address space correspond to only one module_alloc() allocation.

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory for modules. So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address allocated in module_alloc(). __vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a guard hole after allocated area. Guard hole in shadow memory should be a problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory at address occupied by guard hole. So we could fail to allocate shadow for module_alloc(). Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into __vmalloc_node_range(). Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to __vmalloc_node_range() function.

Recently instrumentation of builtin functions calls was removed from GCC 5.0. To check the memory accessed by such functions, userspace asan always uses interceptors for them. So now we should do this as well. This patch declares memset/memmove/memcpy as weak symbols. In mm/kasan/kasan.c we have our own implementation of those functions which checks memory before accessing it. Default memset/memmove/memcpy now now always have aliases with '__' prefix. For files that built without kasan instrumentation (e.g. mm/slub.c) original mem* replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants, cause we don't want to check memory accesses there.

This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer. 16TB of virtual addressed used for shadow memory. It's located in range [ffffec0000000000 - fffffc0000000000] between vmemmap and %esp fixup stacks. At early stage we map whole shadow region with zero page. Latter, after pages mapped to direct mapping address range we unmap zero pages from corresponding shadow (see kasan_map_shadow()) and allocate and map a real shadow memory reusing vmemmap_populate() function. Also replace __pa with __pa_nodebug before shadow initialized. __pa with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y make external function call (__phys_addr) __phys_addr is instrumented, so __asan_load could be called before shadow area initialized.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack. Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by making the restart_block harder to locate. Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy targets, at least on some architectures. It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less identical on all architectures.

I'm getting complaints from validation teams that have updated their Linux kernels from ancient versions to current. They don't see the error logs they expect. I tell the to unload any EDAC drivers[1], and things start working again. The problem is that we short-circuit the logging process if any function on the decoder chain claims to have dealt with the problem: ret = atomic_notifier_call_chain(&x86_mce_decoder_chain, 0, m); if (ret == NOTIFY_STOP) return; The logic we used when we added this code was that we did not want to confuse users with double reports of the same error. But it turns out users are not confused - they are upset that they don't see a log where their tools used to find a log. I could also get into a long description of how the consumer of this log does more than just decode model specific details of the error. It keeps counts, tracks thresholds, takes actions and runs scripts that can alert administrators to problems. [1] We've recently compounded the problem because the acpi_extlog driver also registers for this notifier and also returns NOTIFY_STOP. Signed-off-by: NTony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
