If interrupts were enabled when taking the spinlock, we can leave them enabled while blocking to get the lock. If we can enable interrupts while waiting for the lock to become available, and we take an interrupt before entering the poll, and the handler takes a spinlock which ends up going into the slow state (invalidating the per-cpu "lock" and "want" values), then when the interrupt handler returns the event channel will remain pending so the poll will return immediately, causing it to return out to the main spinlock loop.

Maintain a flag in the LSB of the ticket lock tail which indicates whether anyone is in the lock slowpath and may need kicking when the current holder unlocks. The flags are set when the first locker enters the slowpath, and cleared when unlocking to an empty queue (ie, no contention). In the specific implementation of lock_spinning(), make sure to set the slowpath flags on the lock just before blocking. We must do this before the last-chance pickup test to prevent a deadlock with the unlocker: Unlocker Locker test for lock pickup -> fail unlock test slowpath -> false set slowpath flags block Whereas this works in any ordering: Unlocker Locker set slowpath flags test for lock pickup -> fail block unlock test slowpath -> true, kick If the unlocker finds that the lock has the slowpath flag set but it is actually uncontended (ie, head == tail, so nobody is waiting), then it clears the slowpath flag. The unlock code uses a locked add to update the head counter. This also acts as a full memory barrier so that its safe to subsequently read back the slowflag state, knowing that the updated lock is visible to the other CPUs. If it were an unlocked add, then the flag read may just be forwarded from the store buffer before it was visible to the other CPUs, which could result in a deadlock. Unfortunately this means we need to do a locked instruction when unlocking with PV ticketlocks. However, if PV ticketlocks are not enabled, then the old non-locked "add" is the only unlocking code. Note: this code relies on gcc making sure that unlikely() code is out of line of the fastpath, which only happens when OPTIMIZE_SIZE=n. If it doesn't the generated code isn't too bad, but its definitely suboptimal. Thanks to Srivatsa Vaddagiri for providing a bugfix to the original version of this change, which has been folded in. Thanks to Stephan Diestelhorst for commenting on some code which relied on an inaccurate reading of the x86 memory ordering rules.

Increment ticket head/tails by 2 rather than 1 to leave the LSB free to store a "is in slowpath state" bit. This halves the number of possible CPUs for a given ticket size, but this shouldn't matter in practice - kernels built for 32k+ CPU systems are probably specially built for the hardware rather than a generic distro kernel.

Although the lock_spinning calls in the spinlock code are on the uncommon path, their presence can cause the compiler to generate many more register save/restores in the function pre/postamble, which is in the fast path. To avoid this, convert it to using the pvops callee-save calling convention, which defers all the save/restores until the actual function is called, keeping the fastpath clean.

Replace the old Xen implementation of PV spinlocks with and implementation of xen_lock_spinning and xen_unlock_kick. xen_lock_spinning simply registers the cpu in its entry in lock_waiting, adds itself to the waiting_cpus set, and blocks on an event channel until the channel becomes pending. xen_unlock_kick searches the cpus in waiting_cpus looking for the one which next wants this lock with the next ticket, if any. If found, it kicks it by making its event channel pending, which wakes it up. We need to make sure interrupts are disabled while we're relying on the contents of the per-cpu lock_waiting values, otherwise an interrupt handler could come in, try to take some other lock, block, and overwrite our values.

Rather than outright replacing the entire spinlock implementation in order to paravirtualize it, keep the ticket lock implementation but add a couple of pvops hooks on the slow patch (long spin on lock, unlocking a contended lock). Ticket locks have a number of nice properties, but they also have some surprising behaviours in virtual environments. They enforce a strict FIFO ordering on cpus trying to take a lock; however, if the hypervisor scheduler does not schedule the cpus in the correct order, the system can waste a huge amount of time spinning until the next cpu can take the lock. (See Thomas Friebel's talk "Prevent Guests from Spinning Around" http://www.xen.org/files/xensummitboston08/LHP.pdf for more details.) To address this, we add two hooks: - __ticket_spin_lock which is called after the cpu has been spinning on the lock for a significant number of iterations but has failed to take the lock (presumably because the cpu holding the lock has been descheduled). The lock_spinning pvop is expected to block the cpu until it has been kicked by the current lock holder. - __ticket_spin_unlock, which on releasing a contended lock (there are more cpus with tail tickets), it looks to see if the next cpu is blocked and wakes it if so. When compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS disabled, a set of stub functions causes all the extra code to go away.

Currently, fast page fault incorrectly tries to fix mmio page fault when the generation number is invalid (spte.gen != kvm.gen). It then returns to guest to retry the fault since it sees the last spte is nonpresent. This causes an infinite loop. Since fast page fault only works for direct mmu, the issue exists when 1) tdp is enabled. It is only triggered only on AMD host since on Intel host the mmio page fault is recognized as ept-misconfig whose handler call fault-page path with error_code = 0 2) guest paging is disabled. Under this case, the issue is hardly discovered since paging disable is short-lived and the sptes will be invalid after memslot changed for 150 times Fix it by filtering out MMIO page faults in page_fault_can_be_fast.

Since the IDT is referenced from a fixmap, make sure it is page aligned. Merge with 32-bit one, since it was already aligned to deal with F00F bug. Since bss is cleared before IDT setup, it can live there. This also moves the other *_idt_table variables into common locations. This avoids the risk of the IDT ever being moved in the bss and having the mapping be offset, resulting in calling incorrect handlers. In the current upstream kernel this is not a manifested bug, but heavily patched kernels (such as those using the PaX patch series) did encounter this bug. The tables other than idt_table technically do not need to be page aligned, at least not at the current time, but using a common declaration avoids mistakes. On 64 bits the table is exactly one page long, anyway.

There are CPUs which have errata causing RDMSR of a nonexistent MSR to not fault. We would then try to WRMSR to restore the value of that MSR, causing a crash. Specifically, some Pentium M variants would have this problem trying to save and restore the non-existent EFER, causing a crash on resume. Work around this by making sure we can write back the result at suspend time. Huge thanks to Christian Sünkenberg for finding the offending erratum that finally deciphered the mystery.

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.

No functional changes, preparation. Extract the "register breakpoint" code from ptrace_get_debugreg() into the new/generic helper, ptrace_register_breakpoint(). It will have more users. The patch also adds another simple helper, ptrace_fill_bp_fields(), to factor out the arch_bp_generic_fields() logic in register/modify.

ptrace_write_dr7() skips ptrace_modify_breakpoint(disabled => true) unless second_pass, this buys nothing but complicates the code and means that we always do the main loop twice even if "disabled" was never true. The comment says: Don't unregister the breakpoints right-away, unless all register_user_hw_breakpoint() requests have succeeded. Firstly, we do not do register_user_hw_breakpoint(), it was removed by commit 24f1e32c ("hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events"). We are going to restore register_user_hw_breakpoint() (see the next patch) but this doesn't matter: after commit 44234adc ("hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering them") perf_event_disable() can not hurt, hw_breakpoint_del() does not free the slot. Remove the "second_pass" check from the main loop and simplify the code. Since we have to check "bp != NULL" anyway, the patch also removes the same check in ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and moves the comment into ptrace_write_dr7(). With this patch the second pass is only needed to restore the saved old_dr7. This should never fail, so the patch adds WARN_ON() to catch the potential problems as Frederic suggested.

ptrace_write_dr7() looks unnecessarily overcomplicated. We can factor out ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and do not do "continue" twice, just we need to pass the proper "disabled" argument to ptrace_modify_breakpoint().

This reverts commit 87dc669b ("hw_breakpoints: Fix racy access to ptrace breakpoints"). The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit 9899d11f ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and ->ptrace_bps[] can't go away. The patch only removes ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints and does a couple of "while at it" cleanups, it doesn't remove other changes from the reverted commit.

Original posting: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184202.F54094D9@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options. They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly differing help text. This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug to present the actual menu option. This removes a bunch of duplication and adds consistency across arches. Signed-off-by: NDave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: NH.

Some userspaces do not preserve unusable property. Since usable segment has to be present according to VMX spec we can use present property to amend userspace bug by making unusable segment always nonpresent. vmx_segment_access_rights() already marks nonpresent segment as unusable.
