Compat counterpart of current_user_stack_pointer(); for most of the biarch architectures those two are identical, but e.g. arm64 and arm use different registers for stack pointer... Note that amd64 variants of current_user_stack_pointer/compat_user_stack_pointer do *not* rely on pt_regs having been through FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

In 32 bit the stack address provided by kernel_stack_pointer() may point to an invalid range causing NULL pointer access or page faults while in NMI (see trace below). This happens if called in softirq context and if the stack is empty. The address at ®s->sp is then out of range. Fixing this by checking if regs and ®s->sp are in the same stack context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.

While copying the argument structures in HYPERVISOR_event_channel_op() and HYPERVISOR_physdev_op() into the local variable is sufficiently safe even if the actual structure is smaller than the container one, copying back eventual output values the same way isn't: This may collide with on-stack variables (particularly "rc") which may change between the first and second memcpy() (i.e. the second memcpy() could discard that change). Move the fallback code into out-of-line functions, and handle all of the operations known by this old a hypervisor individually: Some don't require copying back anything at all, and for the rest use the individual argument structures' sizes rather than the container's.

For the case where we ioremap a memory region we must leave it alone. This patch reimplements the fix from e8c71062 ("x86, efi: Calling __pa() with an ioremap()ed address is invalid") which was reverted in e1ad783b because it caused a regression on some MacBooks (they hung at boot). The regression was caused because the commit only marked EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA as E820_RESERVED_EFI, when it should have marked all regions that have the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute. Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on CONFIG_X86_64 because of the way that the memory map might be configured as detailed in the following bug report, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516 e.g. some of the EFI memory regions *need* to be mapped as part of the direct kernel mapping.

The transparent huge page code passes a PMD pointer in as the third argument of update_mmu_cache(), which expects a PTE pointer. This never got noticed because X86 implements update_mmu_cache() as a macro and thus we don't get any type checking, and X86 is the only architecture which supports transparent huge pages currently. Before other architectures can support transparent huge pages properly we need to add a new interface which will take a PMD pointer as the third argument rather than a PTE pointer.

In many places !pmd_present has been converted to pmd_none. For pmds that's equivalent and pmd_none is quicker so using pmd_none is better. However (unless we delete pmd_present) we should provide an accurate pmd_present too. This will avoid the risk of code thinking the pmd is non present because it's under __split_huge_page_map, see the pmd_mknotpresent there and the comment above it. If the page has been mprotected as PROT_NONE, it would also lead to a pmd_present false negative in the same way as the race with split_huge_page. Because the PSE bit stays on at all times (both during split_huge_page and when the _PAGE_PROTNONE bit get set), we could only check for the PSE bit, but checking the PROTNONE bit too is still good to remember pmd_present must always keep PROT_NONE into account. This explains a not reproducible BUG_ON that was seldom reported on the lists. The same issue is in pmd_large, it would go wrong with both PROT_NONE and if it races with split_huge_page.

The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing pages via free_pages_check. A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS) rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into userspace. This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages, since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the pool. This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page is freed into the pool.

The following patch adds perf_event support for the Xeon-Phi PMU, as documented in the "Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessor (codename: Knights Corner) Performance Monitoring Units" manual. Even though it is a co-processor, a Phi runs a full Linux environment and can support performance counters. This is just barebones support, it does not add support for interesting new features such as the SPFLT intruction that allows starting/stopping events without entering the kernel. The PMU internally is just like that of an original Pentium, but a "P6-like" MSR interface is provided. The interface is different enough from a real P6 that it's not easy (or practical) to re-use the code in perf_event_p6.c Acked-by: NLawrence F Meadows <lawrence.f.meadows@intel.com> Acked-by: NCyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: NVince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Acked-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Cc: eranian@gmail.com Cc: Lawrence F <lawrence.f.meadows@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.02.1209261405320.8398@vincent-weaver-1.um.maine.eduSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system. As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files. The changes made in this commit are: (1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we get: include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch. (2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from rather than the old path. It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory during the changeover. I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a directory not the install program. (3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly where to find each file. For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each output directory: .../include/uapi/foo/ .../include/generated/uapi/foo/ .../include/foo/ .../include/generated/foo/ The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.

As TLB shootdown requests to other CPU cores are now using function call interrupts, TLB shootdowns entry in /proc/interrupts is always shown as 0. This behavior change was introduced by commit 52aec330 ("x86/tlb: replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR"). This patch reverts TLB shootdowns entry in /proc/interrupts to count TLB shootdowns separately from the other function call interrupts.

The ACPI spec doesn't provide for a way for the bios to pass down recommended thresholds to the OS on a _per-bank_ basis. This patch adds a new boot option, which if passed, tells Linux to use CMCI thresholds set by the bios. As fail-safe, we initialize threshold to 1 if some banks have not been initialized by the bios and warn the user. Signed-off-by: NNaveen N.

If we reset a vcpu on INIT, we so far overwrote dr7 as provided by KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG, and we also cleared switch_db_regs unconditionally. Fix this by saving the dr7 used for guest debugging and calculating the effective register value as well as switch_db_regs on any potential change. This will change to focus of the set_guest_debug vendor op to update_dp_bp_intercept. Found while trying to stop on start_secondary.

Preemption is disabled between kernel_fpu_begin/end() and as such it is not a good idea to use these routines in kvm_load/put_guest_fpu() which can be very far apart. kvm_load/put_guest_fpu() routines are already called with preemption disabled and KVM already uses the preempt notifier to save the guest fpu state using kvm_put_guest_fpu(). So introduce __kernel_fpu_begin/end() routines which don't touch preemption and use them instead of kernel_fpu_begin/end() for KVM's use model of saving/restoring guest FPU state. Also with this change (and with eagerFPU model), fix the host cr0.TS vm-exit state in the case of VMX. For eagerFPU case, host cr0.TS is always clear. So no need to worry about it. For the traditional lazyFPU restore case, change the cr0.TS bit for the host state during vm-exit to be always clear and cr0.TS bit is set in the __vmx_load_host_state() when the FPU (guest FPU or the host task's FPU) state is not active. This ensures that the host/guest FPU state is properly saved, restored during context-switch and with interrupts (using irq_fpu_usable()) not stomping on the active FPU state.
