      kprobes/x86: Fix page-fault handling logic · 6381c24c
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Current kprobes in-kernel page fault handler doesn't
      expect that its single-stepping can be interrupted by
      an NMI handler which may cause a page fault(e.g. perf
      with callback tracing).
      
      In that case, the page-fault handled by kprobes and it
      misunderstands the page-fault has been caused by the
      single-stepping code and tries to recover IP address
      to probed address.
      
      But the truth is the page-fault has been caused by the
      NMI handler, and do_page_fault failes to handle real
      page fault because the IP address is modified and
      causes Kernel BUGs like below.
      
       ----
       [ 2264.726905] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000020
       [ 2264.727190] IP: [<ffffffff813c46e0>] copy_user_generic_string+0x0/0x40
      
      To handle this correctly, I fixed the kprobes fault
      handler to ensure the faulted ip address is its own
      single-step buffer instead of checking current kprobe
      state.

      [IA64] Change default PSR.ac from '1' to '0' (Fix erratum #237) · c0b5a64d
      Tony Luck 提交于
      April 2014 Itanium processor specification update:
      
      http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/itanium/itanium-specification-update.html
      
      describes this erratum:
      
      =========================================================================
      237. Under a complex set of conditions, store to load forwarding for a
      sub 8-byte load may complete incorrectly
      
      Problem: A load instruction may complete incorrectly when a code sequence
      using 4-byte or smaller load and store operations to the same address
      is executed in combination with specific timing of all the following
      concurrent conditions: store to load forwarding, alignment checking
      enabled, a mis-predicted branch, and complex cache utilization activity.
      
      Implication: The affected sub 8-byte instruction may complete
      incorrectly resulting in unpredictable system behavior. There is an
      extremely low probability of exposure due to the significant number of
      complex microarchitectural concurrent conditions required to encounter
      the erratum.
      
      Workaround: Set PSR.ac = 0 to completely avoid the erratum. Disabling
      Hyper-Threading will significantly reduce exposure to the conditions
      that contribute to encountering the erratum.
      
      Status: See the Summary Table of Changes for the affected steppings.
      =========================================================================
      
      [Table of changes essentially lists all models from McKinley to Tukwila]
      
      The PSR.ac bit controls whether the processor will always generate
      an unaligned reference trap (0x5a00) for a misaligned data access
      (when PSR.ac=1) or if it will let the access succeed when running
      on a cpu that implements logic to handle some unaligned accesses.
      
      Way back in 2008 in commit b704882e
        [IA64] Rationalize kernel mode alignment checking
      we made the decision to always enable strict checking. We were
      already doing so in trap/interrupt context because the common
      preamble code set this bit - but the rest of supervisor code
      (and by inheritance user code) ran with PSR.ac=0.
      
      We now reverse that decision and set PSR.ac=0 everywhere in the
      kernel (also inherited by user processes). This will avoid the
      erratum using the method described in the Itanium specification
      update.  Net effect for users is that the processor will handle
      unaligned access when it can (typically with a tiny performance
      bubble in the pipeline ... but much less invasive than taking a
      trap and having the OS perform the access).
