math_error() calls save_init_fpu() after conditional_sti(), this means that the caller can be preempted. If !use_eager_fpu() we can hit the WARN_ON_ONCE(!__thread_has_fpu(tsk)) and/or save the wrong FPU state. Change math_error() to use unlazy_fpu() and kill save_init_fpu().

unlazy_fpu()->__thread_fpu_end() doesn't look right if use_eager_fpu(). Unconditional __thread_fpu_end() is only correct if we know that this thread can't return to user-mode and use FPU. Fortunately it has only 2 callers. fpu_copy() checks use_eager_fpu(), and init_fpu(current) can be only called by the coredumping thread via regset->get(). But it is exported to modules, and imo this should be fixed anyway. And if we check use_eager_fpu() we can use __save_fpu() like fpu_copy() and save_init_fpu() do. - It seems that even !use_eager_fpu() case doesn't need the unconditional __thread_fpu_end(), we only need it if __save_init_fpu() returns 0. - It is still not clear to me if __save_init_fpu() can safely nest with another save + restore from __kernel_fpu_begin(). If not, we can use kernel_fpu_disable() to fix the race.

The "else" branch clears ->fpu_counter as a remnant of the lazy FPU usage counting: e07e23e1 ("[PATCH] non lazy "sleazy" fpu implementation") However, switch_fpu_prepare() does this now so that else branch is superfluous. If we do use_eager_fpu(), then this has no effect. Otherwise, if we actually wanted to prevent fpu preload after the context switch we would need to reset it unconditionally, even if __thread_has_fpu().

由 Linus Torvalds 提交于
The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a "you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler. That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV. In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by that duplicated architecture fault handler. However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS. To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying. This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that cleanup. Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other "newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about them too.

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.

Commit 0dbc6078 ('x86, build, pci: Fix PCI_MSI build on !SMP') introduced the dependency that X86_UP_APIC is only available when PCI_MSI is false. This effectively prevents PCI_MSI support on 32bit UP systems because it disables both APIC and IO-APIC. But APIC support is architecturally required for PCI_MSI. The intention of the patch was to enforce APIC support when PCI_MSI is enabled, but failed to do so. Remove the !PCI_MSI dependency from X86_UP_APIC and enforce X86_UP_APIC when PCI_MSI support is enabled on 32bit UP systems.

The Witcher 2 did something like this to allocate a TLS segment index: struct user_desc u_info; bzero(&u_info, sizeof(u_info)); u_info.entry_number = (uint32_t)-1; syscall(SYS_set_thread_area, &u_info); Strictly speaking, this code was never correct. It should have set read_exec_only and seg_not_present to 1 to indicate that it wanted to find a free slot without putting anything there, or it should have put something sensible in the TLS slot if it wanted to allocate a TLS entry for real. The actual effect of this code was to allocate a bogus segment that could be used to exploit espfix. The set_thread_area hardening patches changed the behavior, causing set_thread_area to return -EINVAL and crashing the game. This changes set_thread_area to interpret this as a request to find a free slot and to leave it empty, which isn't *quite* what the game expects but should be close enough to keep it working. In particular, using the code above to allocate two segments will allocate the same segment both times. According to FrostbittenKing on Github, this fixes The Witcher 2. If this somehow still causes problems, we could instead allocate a limit==0 32-bit data segment, but that seems rather ugly to me.

由 Dave Hansen 提交于
The 3.19 merge window saw some TLB modifications merged which caused a performance regression. They were fixed in commit 045bbb9fa. Once that fix was applied, I also noticed that there was a small but intermittent regression still present. It was not present consistently enough to bisect reliably, but I'm fairly confident that it came from (my own) MPX patches. The source was reading a relatively unused field in the mm_struct via arch_unmap. I also noted that this code was in the main instruction flow of do_munmap() and probably had more icache impact than we want. This patch does two things: 1. Adds a static (via Kconfig) and dynamic (via cpuid) check for MPX with cpu_feature_enabled(). This keeps us from reading that cacheline in the mm and trades it for a check of the global CPUID variables at least on CPUs without MPX. 2. Adds an unlikely() to ensure that the MPX call ends up out of the main instruction flow in do_munmap(). I've added a detailed comment about why this was done and why we want it even on systems where MPX is present.

We had originally planned on submitting MPX support in one patch set. We eventually broke it up in to two pieces for easier review. One of the features that didn't make the first round was supporting 32-bit binaries on 64-bit kernels. Once we split the set up, we never added code to restrict 32-bit binaries from _using_ MPX on 64-bit kernels. The 32-bit bounds tables are a different format than the 64-bit ones. Without this patch, the kernel will try to read a 32-bit binary's tables as if they were the 64-bit version. They will likely be noticed as being invalid rather quickly and the app will get killed, but that's kinda mean. This patch adds an explicit check, and will make a 64-bit kernel essentially behave as if it has no MPX support when called from a 32-bit binary.

Currently Xen Domain0 has special treatment for ACPI SCI interrupt, that is initialize irq for ACPI SCI at early stage in a special way as: xen_init_IRQ() ->pci_xen_initial_domain() ->xen_setup_acpi_sci() Allocate and initialize irq for ACPI SCI Function xen_setup_acpi_sci() calls acpi_gsi_to_irq() to get an irq number for ACPI SCI. But unfortunately acpi_gsi_to_irq() depends on IOAPIC irqdomains through following path acpi_gsi_to_irq() ->mp_map_gsi_to_irq() ->mp_map_pin_to_irq() ->check IOAPIC irqdomain For PV domains, it uses Xen event based interrupt manangement and doesn't make uses of native IOAPIC, so no irqdomains created for IOAPIC. This causes Xen domain0 fail to install interrupt handler for ACPI SCI and all ACPI events will be lost. Please refer to: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/19/178 So the fix is to get rid of special treatment for ACPI SCI, just treat ACPI SCI as normal GSI interrupt as: acpi_gsi_to_irq() ->acpi_register_gsi() ->acpi_register_gsi_xen() ->xen_register_gsi() With above change, there's no need for xen_setup_acpi_sci() anymore.

cycles:p and cycles:pp do not work on SLM since commit: 86a04461 ("perf/x86: Revamp PEBS event selection") UOPS_RETIRED.ALL is not a PEBS capable event, so it should not be used to count cycle number. Actually SLM calls intel_pebs_aliases_core2() which uses INST_RETIRED.ANY_P to count the number of cycles. It's a PEBS capable event. But inv and cmask must be set to count cycles. Considering SLM allows all events as PEBS with no flags, only INST_RETIRED.ANY_P, inv=1, cmask=16 needs to handled specially.

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the sysfs_show() routine for the RAPL PMU. The current code was wrongly relying on the EVENT_ATTR_STR() macro which uses the events_sysfs_show() function in the x86 PMU code. That function itself was relying on the x86_pmu data structure. Yet RAPL and the core PMU (x86_pmu) have nothing to do with each other. They should therefore not interact with each other. The x86_pmu structure is initialized at boot time based on the host CPU model. When the host CPU is not supported, the x86_pmu remains uninitialized and some of the callbacks it contains are NULL. The false dependency with x86_pmu could potentially cause crashes in case the x86_pmu is not initialized while the RAPL PMU is. This may, for instance, be the case in virtualized environments. This patch fixes the problem by using a private sysfs_show() routine for exporting the RAPL PMU events.

If the function graph tracer traces a jprobe callback, the system will crash. This can easily be demonstrated by compiling the jprobe sample module that is in the kernel tree, loading it and running the function graph tracer. # modprobe jprobe_example.ko # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # ls The first two commands end up in a nice crash after the first fork. (do_fork has a jprobe attached to it, so "ls" just triggers that fork) The problem is caused by the jprobe_return() that all jprobe callbacks must end with. The way jprobes works is that the function a jprobe is attached to has a breakpoint placed at the start of it (or it uses ftrace if fentry is supported). The breakpoint handler (or ftrace callback) will copy the stack frame and change the ip address to return to the jprobe handler instead of the function. The jprobe handler must end with jprobe_return() which swaps the stack and does an int3 (breakpoint). This breakpoint handler will then put back the saved stack frame, simulate the instruction at the beginning of the function it added a breakpoint to, and then continue on. For function tracing to work, it hijakes the return address from the stack frame, and replaces it with a hook function that will trace the end of the call. This hook function will restore the return address of the function call. If the function tracer traces the jprobe handler, the hook function for that handler will not be called, and its saved return address will be used for the next function. This will result in a kernel crash. To solve this, pause function tracing before the jprobe handler is called and unpause it before it returns back to the function it probed. Some other updates: Used a variable "saved_sp" to hold kcb->jprobe_saved_sp. This makes the code look a bit cleaner and easier to understand (various tries to fix this bug required this change). Note, if fentry is being used, jprobes will change the ip address before the function graph tracer runs and it will not be able to trace the function that the jprobe is probing.

Commit 5d26a105 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm. Even though commit 5d26a105 added those aliases for a vast amount of modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again. This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work with kernels v3.18 and below. Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former won't work for crypto modules any more.

Using the native code here can't work properly, as the hypervisor would normally have cleared the two reason bits by the time Dom0 gets to see the NMI (if passed to it at all). There's a shared info field for this, and there's an existing hook to use - just fit the two together. This is particularly relevant so that NMIs intended to be handled by APEI / GHES actually make it to the respective handler. Note that the hook can (and should) be used irrespective of whether being in Dom0, as accessing port 0x61 in a DomU would be even worse, while the shared info field would just hold zero all the time. Note further that hardware NMI handling for PVH doesn't currently work anyway due to missing code in the hypervisor (but it is expected to work the native rather than the PV way).

When allocating a new pmd for the linear mapped p2m list a check is done for not introducing another pmd when this just happened on another cpu. In this case the old pte pointer was returned which points to the p2m_missing or p2m_identity page. The correct value would be the pointer to the found new page.

There was another report of a boot failure with a #GP fault in the uncore SBOX initialization. The earlier work around was not enough for this system. The boot was failing while trying to initialize the third SBOX. This patch detects parts with only two SBOXes and limits the number of SBOX units to two there. Stable material, as it affects boot problems on 3.18.

Perf reports user regs for kernel-mode samples so that samples can be backtraced through user code. The old code was very broken in syscall context, resulting in useless backtraces. The new code, in contrast, is still dangerously racy, but it should at least work most of the time.
