32-bit sparc uses swap instruction to implement set_pte(). It called using GCC inline assembler. But it misses the "memory" clobber to indicate that pte value will be updated in memory. As result GCC doesn't know that it cannot postpone pte pointer dereference which occurs before set_pte() to post-set_pte() time. It leads to real-world bugs -- [1]. In this situation we have code: ptent = ptep_modify_prot_start(mm, addr, pte); ptent = pte_modify(ptent, newprot); ... ptep_modify_prot_commit(mm, addr, pte, ptent); ptep_modify_prot_start() in sparc case is just 'pte' dereference plus pte_clear(). pte_clear() calls broken set_pte(). GCC thinks it's valid to dereference 'pte' again on pte_modify() and gets cleared pte. ptep_modify_prot_commit() puts 'pteent' with pfn==0 back to page table, which eventually leads to the crash.

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols (regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement arch-specific code only when the arch needs it. For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as default. As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is. So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation. In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code. One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it. Justification of non-trivial changes: - in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.) - in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because they are identical in both archs. In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20. In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.

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.

Load balancing can be triggered in the critical sections protected by srmmu_context_spinlock in destroy_context() and switch_mm() and can hang the cpu waiting for the rq lock of another cpu that in turn has called switch_mm hangning on srmmu_context_spinlock leading to deadlock.

There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed is an lsync or eieio instruction. This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows: Barrier Call Explanation --------- -------- ---------------------------------- rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb(). Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the CPU and a device. It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to be gained in trying to define such a function.

This patch is meant to cleanup the handling of read_barrier_depends and smp_read_barrier_depends. In multiple spots in the kernel headers read_barrier_depends is defined as "do {} while (0)", however we then go into the SMP vs non-SMP sections and have the SMP version reference read_barrier_depends, and the non-SMP define it as yet another empty do/while. With this commit I went through and cleaned out the duplicate definitions and reduced the number of definitions down to 2 per header. In addition I moved the 50 line comments for the macro from the x86 and mips headers that defined it as an empty do/while to those that were actually defining the macro, alpha and blackfin.

As a small zero page, huge zero page should not be accounted in smaps report as normal page. For small pages we rely on vm_normal_page() to filter out zero page, but vm_normal_page() is not designed to handle pmds. We only get here due hackish cast pmd to pte in smaps_pte_range() -- pte and pmd format is not necessary compatible on each and every architecture. Let's add separate codepath to handle pmds. follow_trans_huge_pmd() will detect huge zero page for us. We would need pmd_dirty() helper to do this properly.

Alternative to RPS/RFS is to use hardware support for multiple queues. Then split a set of million of sockets into worker threads, each one using epoll() to manage events on its own socket pool. Ideally, we want one thread per RX/TX queue/cpu, but we have no way to know after accept() or connect() on which queue/cpu a socket is managed. We normally use one cpu per RX queue (IRQ smp_affinity being properly set), so remembering on socket structure which cpu delivered last packet is enough to solve the problem. After accept(), connect(), or even file descriptor passing around processes, applications can use : int cpu; socklen_t len = sizeof(cpu); getsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, &len); And use this information to put the socket into the right silo for optimal performance, as all networking stack should run on the appropriate cpu, without need to send IPI (RPS/RFS).

This code is trying to go through the standard PCI config space interfaces to read the PCI controller's PCI_STATUS register. This doesn't work, because we more often than not do not enumerate the PCI controller as a bonafide PCI device during the OF device node scan. Therefore bus->self remains NULL. Existing common code for PSYCHO and PSYCHO-like PCI controllers handles this properly, by doing the config space access directly. Do the same here, pbm->pci_ops->{read,write}().

It is not sufficient to only implement get_user_pages_fast(), you must also implement the atomic version __get_user_pages_fast() otherwise you end up using the weak symbol fallback implementation which simply returns zero. This is dangerous, because it causes the futex code to loop forever if transparent hugepages are supported (see get_futex_key()). Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Meelis Roos reported that kernels built with gcc-4.9 do not boot, we eventually narrowed this down to only impacting machines using UltraSPARC-III and derivitive cpus. The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned: [ 54.451346] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004 [ 54.451346] [ 54.571516] CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 3.16.0-rc2-00211-gd7933ab7 #96 [ 54.666431] Call Trace: [ 54.698453] [0000000000762f8c] panic+0xb0/0x224 [ 54.759071] [000000000045cf68] do_exit+0x948/0x960 [ 54.823123] [000000000042cbc0] fault_in_user_windows+0xe0/0x100 [ 54.902036] [0000000000404ad0] __handle_user_windows+0x0/0x10 [ 54.978662] Press Stop-A (L1-A) to return to the boot prom [ 55.050713] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004 Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with an older compiler fixes the boot. Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering. With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted. Perhaps we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get back from the TLB miss trap. Let's plug this up by doing two things: 1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into the firmware. Just use the kernel's stack. 2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()" to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.

write{b,w,l,q}_relaxed are implemented by some architectures in order to permit memory-mapped I/O accesses with weaker barrier semantics than the non-relaxed variants. This patch adds dummy macros for the write accessors to sparc, in the same vein as the dummy definitions for the relaxed read accessors. The existing relaxed read{b,w,l} accessors are moved into asm/io.h, since they are identical between 32-bit and 64-bit machines. Acked-by: N"David S.

This breaks the stack end corruption detection facility. What that facility does it write a magic value to "end_of_stack()" and checking to see if it gets overwritten. "end_of_stack()" is "task_thread_info(p) + 1", which for sparc64 is the beginning of the FPU register save area. So once the user uses the FPU, the magic value is overwritten and the debug checks trigger. Fix this by making the size explicit. Due to the size we use for the fpsaved[], gsr[], and xfsr[] arrays we are limited to 7 levels of FPU state saves. So each FPU register set is 256 bytes, allocate 256 * 7 for the fpregs area.

Every path that ends up at do_sparc64_fault() must install a valid FAULT_CODE_* bitmask in the per-thread fault code byte. Two paths leading to the label winfix_trampoline (which expects the FAULT_CODE_* mask in register %g4) were not doing so: 1) For pre-hypervisor TLB protection violation traps, if we took the 'winfix_trampoline' path we wouldn't have %g4 initialized with the FAULT_CODE_* value yet. Resulting in using the TLB_TAG_ACCESS register address value instead. 2) In the TSB miss path, when we notice that we are going to use a hugepage mapping, but we haven't allocated the hugepage TSB yet, we still have to take the window fixup case into consideration and in that particular path we leave %g4 not setup properly. Errors on this sort were largely invisible previously, but after commit 4ccb9272 ("sparc64: sun4v TLB error power off events") we now have a fault_code mask bit (FAULT_CODE_BAD_RA) that triggers due to this bug. FAULT_CODE_BAD_RA triggers because this bit is set in TLB_TAG_ACCESS (see #1 above) and thus we get seemingly random bus errors triggered for user processes.

The AES loops in arch/sparc/crypto/aes_glue.c use a scheme where the key material is preloaded into the FPU registers, and then we loop over and over doing the crypt operation, reusing those pre-cooked key registers. There are intervening blkcipher*() calls between the crypt operation calls. And those might perform memcpy() and thus also try to use the FPU. The sparc64 kernel FPU usage mechanism is designed to allow such recursive uses, but with a catch. There has to be a trap between the two FPU using threads of control. The mechanism works by, when the FPU is already in use by the kernel, allocating a slot for FPU saving at trap time. Then if, within the trap handler, we try to use the FPU registers, the pre-trap FPU register state is saved into the slot. Then at trap return time we notice this and restore the pre-trap FPU state. Over the long term there are various more involved ways we can make this work, but for a quick fix let's take advantage of the fact that the situation where this happens is very limited. All sparc64 chips that support the crypto instructiosn also are using the Niagara4 memcpy routine, and that routine only uses the FPU for large copies where we can't get the source aligned properly to a multiple of 8 bytes. We look to see if the FPU is already in use in this context, and if so we use the non-large copy path which only uses integer registers. Furthermore, we also limit this special logic to when we are doing kernel copy, rather than a user copy. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Inconsistently, the raw_* IRQ routines do not interact with and update the irqflags tracing and lockdep state, whereas the raw_* spinlock interfaces do. This causes problems in p1275_cmd_direct() because we disable hardirqs by hand using raw_local_irq_restore() and then do a raw_spin_lock() which triggers a lockdep trace because the CPU's hw IRQ state doesn't match IRQ tracing's internal software copy of that state.
