Checkin: b3b42ac2 x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels disabled 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels due to an information leak. However, it does seem that people are genuinely using Wine to run old 16-bit Windows programs on Linux. A proper fix for this ("espfix64") is coming in the upcoming merge window, but as a temporary fix, create a sysctl to allow the administrator to re-enable support for 16-bit segments. It adds a "/proc/sys/abi/ldt16" sysctl that defaults to zero (off). If you hit this issue and care about your old Windows program more than you care about a kernel stack address information leak, you can do echo 1 > /proc/sys/abi/ldt16 as root (add it to your startup scripts), and you should be ok. The sysctl table is only added if you have COMPAT support enabled on x86-64, but I assume anybody who runs old windows binaries very much does that ;) Signed-off-by: NH.

The invalidation is required in order to maintain proper semantics under CoW conditions. In scenarios where a process clones several threads, a thread operating on a core whose DTLB entry for a particular hugepage has not been invalidated, will be reading from the hugepage that belongs to the forked child process, even after hugetlb_cow(). The thread will not see the updated page as long as the stale DTLB entry remains cached, the thread attempts to write into the page, the child process exits, or the thread gets migrated to a different processor.

With tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec being a 32-bit value on 32-bit systems, (tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec << tk->shift) in update_vsyscall() may lose upper bits or, worse, add them since compiler will do this: (u64)(tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec << tk->shift) instead of ((u64)tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec << tk->shift) So if, for example, tv_nsec is 0x800000 and shift is 8 we will end up with 0xffffffff80000000 instead of 0x80000000.

On x86 the allocation of irq descriptors may allocate interrupts which are in the range of the GSI interrupts. That's wrong as those interrupts are hardwired and we don't have the irq domain translation like PPC. So one of these interrupts can be hooked up later to one of the devices which are hard wired to it and the io_apic init code for that particular interrupt line happily reuses that descriptor with a completely different configuration so hell breaks lose. Inside x86 we allocate dynamic interrupts from above nr_gsi_irqs, except for a few usage sites which have not yet blown up in our face for whatever reason. But for drivers which need an irq range, like the GPIO drivers, we have no limit in place and we don't want to expose such a detail to a driver. To cure this introduce a function which an architecture can implement to impose a lower bound on the dynamic interrupt allocations. Implement it for x86 and set the lower bound to nr_gsi_irqs, which is the end of the hardwired interrupt space, so all dynamic allocations happen above. That not only allows the GPIO driver to work sanely, it also protects the bogus callsites of create_irq_nr() in hpet, uv, irq_remapping and htirq code. They need to be cleaned up as well, but that's a separate issue.

Correct IRQ routing in case a vSMP box is detected but the Interrupt Routing Comply (IRC) value is set to "comply", which leads to incorrect IRQ routing. Before the patch: When a vSMP box was detected and IRC was set to "comply", users (and the kernel) couldn't effectively set the destination of the IRQs. This is because the hook inside vsmp_64.c always setup all CPUs as the IRQ destination using cpumask_setall() as the return value for IRQ allocation mask. Later, this "overrided" mask caused the kernel to set the IRQ destination to the lowest online CPU in the mask (CPU0 usually). After the patch: When the IRC is set to "comply", users (and the kernel) can control the destination of the IRQs as we will not be changing the default "apic->vector_allocation_domain".

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.

Steve reported a reboot hang and bisected it back to this commit: a4f1987e x86, reboot: Add EFI and CF9 reboot methods into the default list He heroically tested all reboot methods and found the following: reboot=t # triple fault ok reboot=k # keyboard ctrl FAIL reboot=b # BIOS ok reboot=a # ACPI FAIL reboot=e # EFI FAIL [system has no EFI] reboot=p # PCI 0xcf9 FAIL And I think it's pretty obvious that we should only try PCI 0xcf9 as a last resort - if at all. The other observation is that (on this box) we should never try the PCI reboot method, but close with either the 'triple fault' or the 'BIOS' (terminal!) reboot methods. Thirdly, CF9_COND is a total misnomer - it should be something like CF9_SAFE or CF9_CAREFUL, and 'CF9' should be 'CF9_FORCE' ... So this patch fixes the worst problems: - it orders the actual reboot logic to follow the reboot ordering pattern - it was in a pretty random order before for no good reason. - it fixes the CF9 misnomers and uses BOOT_CF9_FORCE and BOOT_CF9_SAFE flags to make the code more obvious. - it tries the BIOS reboot method before the PCI reboot method. (Since 'BIOS' is a terminal reboot method resulting in a hang if it does not work, this is essentially equivalent to removing the PCI reboot method from the default reboot chain.) - just for the miraculous possibility of terminal (resulting in hang) reboot methods of triple fault or BIOS returning without having done their job, there's an ordering between them as well.

Earlier the code that turned on the jump label was only called by Xen specific functions. But now that it had been moved to the initcall machinery it gets called on Xen, KVM, and baremetal - ouch!. And the detection machinery to only call it on Xen wasn't remembered in the heat of merge window excitement. This means that the slowpath is enabled on baremetal while it should not be.

Commit 198d208d ("x86: Keep thread_info on thread stack in x86_32") made 32-bit kernels use kernel_stack to point to thread_info. That change missed a couple of updates needed by Xen's 32-bit PV guests: 1. kernel_stack needs to be initialized for secondary CPUs 2. GET_THREAD_INFO() now uses %fs register which may not be the kernel's version when executing xen_iret(). With respect to the second issue, we don't need GET_THREAD_INFO() anymore: we used it as an intermediate step to get to per_cpu xen_vcpu and avoid referencing %fs. Now that we are going to use %fs anyway we may as well go directly to xen_vcpu. Signed-off-by: NBoris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>

The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 32-bit mode. Since 16-bit support is somewhat crippled anyway on a 64-bit kernel (no V86 mode), and most (if not quite all) 64-bit processors support virtualization for the users who really need it, simply reject attempts at creating a 16-bit segment when running on top of a 64-bit kernel.

New kexec-tools wants to pass kdump kernel needed memmap via E820 directly, instead of memmap=exactmap. This makes saved_max_pfn not be passed down to 2nd kernel. To keep 1st kernel and 2nd kernel using the same TCE table size, Muli suggest to hard code the size to max (8M). We can't get rid of saved_max_pfn this time, for backward compatibility with old first kernel and new second kernel. However new first kernel and old second kernel can not work unfortunately. v2->v1: - retain saved_max_pfn so new 2nd kernel can work with old 1st kernel from Vivek Signed-off-by: NWANG Chao <chaowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: NVivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Acked-by: NMuli Ben-Yehuda <mulix@mulix.org> Acked-by: NJon Mason <jdmason@kudzu.us> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1394463120-26999-1-git-send-email-chaowang@redhat.comSigned-off-by: NH.

We're currently passing the file handle for the root file system to efi_file_read() and efi_file_close(), instead of the file handle for the file we wish to read/close. While this has worked up until now, it seems that it has only been by pure luck. Olivier explains, "The issue is the UEFI Fat driver might return the same function for 'fh->read()' and 'h->read()'. While in our case it does not work with a different implementation of EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL. In our case, we return a different pointer when reading a directory and reading a file." Fixing this actually clears up the two functions because we can drop one of the arguments, and instead only pass a file 'handle' argument.

code32_start should point at the start of the protected mode code, and *not* at the beginning of the bzImage. This is much easier to do in assembly so document that callers of make_boot_params() need to fill out code32_start. The fallout from this bug is that we would end up relocating the image but copying the image at some offset, resulting in what appeared to be memory corruption.

commit 54b52d87 ("x86/efi: Build our own EFI services pointer table") introduced a regression because the 64-bit file_size() implementation passed a pointer to a 32-bit data object, instead of a pointer to a 64-bit object. Because the firmware treats the object as 64-bits regardless it was reading random values from the stack for the upper 32-bits. This resulted in people being unable to boot their machines, after seeing the following error messages, Failed to get file info size Failed to alloc highmem for files Reported-by: NDzmitry Sledneu <dzmitry.sledneu@gmail.com> Reported-by: NKoen Kooi <koen@dominion.thruhere.net> Tested-by: NKoen Kooi <koen@dominion.thruhere.net> Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Protect more options for x86 with cc-option so that we don't get errors when using clang instead of gcc. Add more or different options when using clang as well. Also need to enforce that SSE is off for clang and the stack is 8-byte aligned.
