A vmalloc fault needs to sync up PGD/PTE entry from init_mm to current task's "active_mm". ARC vmalloc fault handler however was using mm. A vmalloc fault for non user task context (actually pre-userland, from init thread's open for /dev/console) caused the handler to deref NULL mm (for mm->pgd) The reasons it worked so far is amazing: 1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD. In SMP that MMU register is repurposed hence need for mm pointer deref. 2. In pre-3.12 SMP kernel, the problem triggering vmalloc didn't exist in pre-userland code path - it was introduced with commit 20bafb3d "n_tty: Move buffers into n_tty_data" Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com> Cc: Noam Camus <noamc@ezchip.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org #3.10 and 3.11 Cc: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

this_cpu_sub() is implemented as negation and addition. This patch casts the adjustment to the counter type before negation to sign extend the adjustment. This helps in cases where the counter type is wider than an unsigned adjustment. An alternative to this patch is to declare such operations unsupported, but it seemed useful to avoid surprises. This patch specifically helps the following example: unsigned int delta = 1 preempt_disable() this_cpu_write(long_counter, 0) this_cpu_sub(long_counter, delta) preempt_enable() Before this change long_counter on a 64 bit machine ends with value 0xffffffff, rather than 0xffffffffffffffff. This is because this_cpu_sub(pcp, delta) boils down to this_cpu_add(pcp, -delta), which is basically: long_counter = 0 + 0xffffffff Also apply the same cast to: __this_cpu_sub() __this_cpu_sub_return() this_cpu_sub_return() All percpu_test.ko passes, especially the following cases which previously failed: l -= ui_one; __this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one); CHECK(l, long_counter, -1); l -= ui_one; this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one); CHECK(l, long_counter, -1); CHECK(l, long_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff); ul -= ui_one; __this_cpu_sub(ulong_counter, ui_one); CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, -1); CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff); ul = this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one); CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 2); ul = __this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one); CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 1); Signed-off-by: NGreg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Acked-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The GIC interrupt offsets are calculated based on the value of NR_CPUS. However, this is wrong because NR_CPUS may or may not contain the real number of the actual cpus present in the system. We fix that by using the 'nr_cpu_ids' variable which contains the real number of cpus in the system. Previously, an MT core (eg with 8 VPEs) will fail to boot if NR_CPUS was > 8 with the following errors: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/irq/chip.c:670 __irq_set_handler+0x15c/0x164() Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G W 3.12.0-rc5-00087-gced5633 5 Stack : 00000006 00000004 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 807a4f36 00000053 807a0000 00000000 80173218 80565aa8 00000000 00000000 00000000 0000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 0000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 8054fd00 8054fd94 80500514 805657a7 8016eb4 807a0000 80500514 00000000 00000000 80565aa8 8079a5d8 80565766 8054fd0 ...

OK, so what I'm actually seeing on my WSM is that sched/clock.c is 'broken' for the purpose we're using it for. What triggered it is that my WSM-EP is broken :-( [ 0.001000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT [ 0.002000] tsc: Detected 2533.715 MHz processor [ 0.500180] TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#6]: [ 0.505197] Measured 3 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock. [ 0.004000] tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed For some reason it consistently detects TSC skew, even though NHM+ should have a single clock domain for 'reasonable' systems. This marks sched_clock_stable=0, which means that we do fancy stuff to try and get a 'sane' clock. Part of this fancy stuff relies on the tick, clearly that's gone when NOHZ=y. So for idle cpus time gets stuck, until it either wakes up or gets kicked by another cpu. While this is perfectly fine for the scheduler -- it only cares about actually running stuff, and when we're running stuff we're obviously not idle. This does somewhat break down for perf which can trigger events just fine on an otherwise idle cpu. So I've got NMIs get get 'measured' as taking ~1ms, which actually don't last nearly that long: <idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311970: rcu_nmi_enter <-do_nmi ... <idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311997: perf_sample_event_took: HERE!!! : 1040990 So ftrace (which uses sched_clock(), not the fancy bits) only sees ~27us, but we measure ~1ms !!

Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the kernel. The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g. J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted. In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial: During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called. It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task thread info pointer. Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for %cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly turned zero after the firmware call. So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes became clear: - On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this problem. - Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task thread info pointer was below 4GB. - Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because the upper 32bit were zero anyay. - Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary. Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards.

The result of the store-clock-fast (STCKF) instruction is a bit fuzzy. It can happen that the value stored on one CPU is smaller than the value stored on another CPU, although the order of the stores is the other way around. This can cause deltas of get_tod_clock() values to become negative when they should not be. We need to be more careful with store-clock-fast, this patch partially reverts git commit e4b7b4238e666682555461fa52eecd74652f36bb "time: always use stckf instead of stck if available". The get_tod_clock() function now uses the store-clock-extended (STCKE) instruction. get_tod_clock_fast() can be used if the fuzziness of store-clock-fast is acceptable e.g. for wait loops local to a CPU.

We use jump label to enable pv-spinlock. With the changes in (442e0973 Merge branch 'x86/jumplabel'), the jump label behaviour has changed that would result in eventual hang of the VM since we would end up in a situation where slow path locks would halt the vcpus but we will not be able to wakeup the vcpu by lock releaser using unlock kick. Similar problem in Xen and more detailed description is available in a945928e (xen: Do not enable spinlocks before jump_label_init() has executed) This patch splits kvm_spinlock_init to separate jump label changes with pvops patching and also make jump label enabling after jump_label_init().

This fixes a long-standing Integrator/CP regression from commit 870e2928 "ARM: integrator-cp: convert use CLKSRC_OF for timer init" When this code was introduced, the both aliases pointing the system to use timer1 as primary (clocksource) and timer2 as secondary (clockevent) was ignored, and the system would simply use the first two timers found as clocksource and clockevent. However this made the system timeline accelerate by a factor x25, as it turns out that the way the clocking actually works (totally undocumented and found after some trial-and-error) is that timer0 runs @ 25MHz and timer1 and timer2 runs @ 1MHz. Presumably this divider setting is a boot-on default and configurable albeit the way to configure it is not documented. So as a quick fix to the problem, let's mark timer0 as disabled, so the code will chose timer1 and timer2 as it used to. This also deletes the two aliases for the primary and secondary timer as they have been superceded by the auto-selection Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com> Cc: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NLinus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NOlof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>

In ftrace_syscall_enter(), syscall_get_arguments(..., 0, n, ...) if (i == 0) { <handle ORIG_r0> ...; n--;} memcpy(..., n * sizeof(args[0])); If 'number of arguments(n)' is zero and 'argument index(i)' is also zero in syscall_get_arguments(), none of arguments should be copied by memcpy(). Otherwise 'n--' can be a big positive number and unexpected amount of data will be copied.

Running an "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger" crashes the parisc kernel. The problem is, that in print_worker_info() we try to read the workqueue info via the probe_kernel_read() functions which use pagefault_disable() to avoid crashes like this: probe_kernel_read(&pwq, &worker->current_pwq, sizeof(pwq)); probe_kernel_read(&wq, &pwq->wq, sizeof(wq)); probe_kernel_read(name, wq->name, sizeof(name) - 1); The problem here is, that the first probe_kernel_read(&pwq) might return zero in pwq and as such the following probe_kernel_reads() try to access contents of the page zero which is read protected and generate a kernel segfault. With this patch we fix the interruption handler to call parisc_terminate() directly only if pagefault_disable() was not called (in which case preempt_count()==0). Otherwise we hand over to the pagefault handler which will try to look up the faulting address in the fixup tables.

Commit 9a46ad6d "smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic similar to smp_call_function_single()" has unified the way to handle single and multiple cross-CPU function calls. Now only one interrupt is needed for architecture specific code to support generic SMP function call interfaces, so kill the redundant single function call interrupt.

ARCompact TRAP_S insn used for breakpoints, commits before exception is taken (updating architectural PC). So ptregs->ret contains next-PC and not the breakpoint PC itself. This is different from other restartable exceptions such as TLB Miss where ptregs->ret has exact faulting PC. gdb needs to know exact-PC hence ARC ptrace GETREGSET provides for @stop_pc which returns ptregs->ret vs. EFA depending on the situation. However, writing stop_pc (SETREGSET request), which updates ptregs->ret doesn't makes sense stop_pc doesn't always correspond to that reg as described above. This was not an issue so far since user_regs->ret / user_regs->stop_pc had same value and both writing to ptregs->ret was OK, needless, but NOT broken, hence not observed. With gdb "jump", they diverge, and user_regs->ret updating ptregs is overwritten immediately with stop_pc, which this patch fixes.

Due to the way kernel is initialized under Xen is possible that the ring1 selector used by the kernel for the boot cpu end up to be copied to userspace leading to segmentation fault in the userspace. Xen code in the kernel initialize no-boot cpus with correct selectors (ds and es set to __USER_DS) but the boot one keep the ring1 (passed by Xen). On task context switch (switch_to) we assume that ds, es and cs already point to __USER_DS and __KERNEL_CSso these selector are not changed. If processor is an Intel that support sysenter instruction sysenter/sysexit is used so ds and es are not restored switching back from kernel to userspace. In the case the selectors point to a ring1 instead of __USER_DS the userspace code will crash on first memory access attempt (to be precise Xen on the emulated iret used to do sysexit will detect and set ds and es to zero which lead to GPF anyway). Now if an userspace process call kernel using sysenter and get rescheduled (for me it happen on a specific init calling wait4) could happen that the ring1 selector is set to ds and es. This is quite hard to detect cause after a while these selectors are fixed (__USER_DS seems sticky). Bisecting the code commit 7076aada appears to be the first one that have this issue.

When the MM code is invalidating a range of pages, it calls the KVM kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() notifier function, which calls kvm_unmap_hva_range(), which arranges to flush all the TLBs for guest pages. However, the Linux PTEs for the range being flushed are still valid at that point. We are not supposed to establish any new references to pages in the range until the ...range_end() notifier gets called. The PPC-specific KVM code doesn't get any explicit notification of that; instead, we are supposed to use mmu_notifier_retry() to test whether we are or have been inside a range flush notifier pair while we have been referencing a page. This patch calls the mmu_notifier_retry() while mapping the guest page to ensure we are not referencing a page when in range invalidation. This call is inside a region locked with kvm->mmu_lock, which is the same lock that is called by the KVM MMU notifier functions, thus ensuring that no new notification can proceed while we are in the locked region.
