With the variable operated on being of "unsigned long" type, neither ffs() nor fls() are suitable to use on them, as those truncate their arguments to 32 bits. Using __ffs() and __fls() respectively at once eliminates the need to subtract 1 from their results. Additionally, with the alignment value subsequently used as a shift count, it must be enforced to be less than BITS_PER_LONG (and on 64-bit there's no need for it to be any smaller).

According to Intel 64 and IA-32 SDM and Optimization Reference Manual, beginning with Ivybridge, REG string operation using MOVSB and STOSB can provide both flexible and high-performance REG string operations in cases like memory copy. Enhancement availability is indicated by CPUID.7.0.EBX[9] (Enhanced REP MOVSB/ STOSB). If CPU erms feature is detected, patch copy_user_generic with enhanced fast string version of copy_user_generic. A few new macros are defined to reduce duplicate code in ALTERNATIVE and ALTERNATIVE_2.

stop_machine_text_poke() uses atomic_dec_and_test() to select one of the CPUs executing that function to actually modify the code. Since the variable is initialized to 1, subsequent CPUs will make the variable go negative. Since going negative is uncommon/unexpected in typical dec_and_test usage change this user to atomic_xchg(). This was found using a patch that warns on dec_and_test going negative.

It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of section mismatch warnings: VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-syms.lds LD arch/x86/vdso/built-in.o LD arch/x86/built-in.o WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5af0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable test_nmi_ipi_callback_na.10451 to the function .init.text:test_nmi_ipi_callback() [...] WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5b04): Section mismatch in reference from the variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399 to the function .init.text:nmi_unk_cb() The variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399 references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...] Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler. The reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is. To resolve this, I created a new #define, register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as __initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called during init of the kernel. Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't have a clue what was going on.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2 broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the 'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode for selective broadcast. But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

Without this patch, applications with two different stack regions (eg: native stack vs JIT stack) get truncated callchains even when RBP chaining is present. GDB shows proper stack traces and the frame pointer chaining is intact. This patch disables the (fp < RSP) check, hoping that other checks in the code save the day for us. In our limited testing, this didn't seem to break anything. In the long term, we could potentially have userspace advise the kernel on the range of valid stack addresses, so we don't spend a lot of time unwinding from bogus addresses.

So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot stage. The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

Thus even if hot-added memory which is same PXM as hot-added CPU is written in ACPI SRAT Table, if the hot-added CPU is not written in ACPI SRAT table, numa_nodes_parsed is not set. But according to ACPI Spec Rev 5.0, it says about ACPI SRAT table as follows: This optional table provides information that allows OSPM to associate processors and memory ranges, including ranges of memory provided by hot-added memory devices, with system localities / proximity domains and clock domains. It means that ACPI SRAT table only provides information for CPUs present at boot time and for memory including hot-added memory. So hot-added memory is written in ACPI SRAT table, but hot-added CPU is not written in it. Thus numa_nodes_parsed should be set by not only acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init / acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init but also acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init for the case. Additionally, if system has cpuless memory node, acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init / acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init cannot set numa_nodes_parseds since these functions cannot find cpu description for the node. In this case, numa_nodes_parsed needs to be set by acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init.

Fix the x86 instruction decoder to decode bsr/bsf/jmpe with operand-size prefix (66h). This fixes the test case failure reported by Linus, attached below. bsf/bsr/jmpe have a special encoding. Opcode map in Intel Software Developers Manual vol2 says they have TZCNT/LZCNT variants if it has F3h prefix. However, there is no information if it has other 66h or F2h prefixes. Current instruction decoder supposes that those are bad instructions, but it actually accepts at least operand-size prefixes. H. Peter Anvin further explains: " TZCNT/LZCNT are F3 + BSF/BSR exactly because the F2 and F3 prefixes have historically been no-ops with most instructions. This allows software to unconditionally use the prefixed versions and get TZCNT/LZCNT on the processors that have them if they don't care about the difference.

When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of user_regs_struct instead. Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to kernel.

If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop. It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume() and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in do_signal()... Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm glue takes care of that.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

Since we can't expect every user to read the EFI boot stub code it seems prudent to have a couple of paragraphs explaining what it is and how it works. The "initrd=" option in particular is tricky because it only understands absolute EFI-style paths (backslashes as directory separators), and until now this hasn't been documented anywhere. This has tripped up a couple of users.

We need a way of printing useful messages to the user, for example when we fail to open an initrd file, instead of just hanging the machine without giving the user any indication of what went wrong.

The loop at the 'close_handles' label in handle_ramdisks() should be using 'i', which represents the number of initrd files that were successfully opened, not 'nr_initrds' which is the number of initrd= arguments passed on the command line. Currently, if we execute the loop to close all file handles and we failed to open any initrds we'll try to call the close function on a garbage pointer, causing the machine to hang.

When both DYNAMIC_FTRACE and LOCKDEP are set, the TRACE_IRQS_ON/OFF will call into the lockdep code. The lockdep code can call lots of functions that may be traced by ftrace. When ftrace is updating its code and hits a breakpoint, the breakpoint handler will call into lockdep. If lockdep happens to call a function that also has a breakpoint attached, it will jump back into the breakpoint handler resetting the stack to the debug stack and corrupt the contents currently on that stack. The 'do_sym' call that calls do_int3() is protected by modifying the IST table to point to a different location if another breakpoint is hit. But the TRACE_IRQS_OFF/ON are outside that protection, and if a breakpoint is hit from those, the stack will get corrupted, and the kernel will crash: [ 1013.243754] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000002 [ 1013.272665] IP: [<ffff880145cc0000>] 0xffff880145cbffff [ 1013.285186] PGD 1401b2067 PUD 14324c067 PMD 0 [ 1013.298832] Oops: 0010 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 1013.310600] CPU 2 [ 1013.317904] Modules linked in: ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 xt_state nf_conntrack ip6table_filter ip6_tables crc32c_intel ghash_clmulni_intel microcode usb_debug serio_raw pcspkr iTCO_wdt i2c_i801 iTCO_vendor_support e1000e nfsd nfs_acl auth_rpcgss lockd sunrpc i915 video i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper drm i2c_core [last unloaded: scsi_wait_scan] [ 1013.401848] [ 1013.407399] Pid: 112, comm: kworker/2:1 Not tainted 3.4.0+ #30 [ 1013.437943] RIP: 8eb8:[<ffff88014630a000>] [<ffff88014630a000>] 0xffff880146309fff [ 1013.459871] RSP: ffffffff8165e919:ffff88014780f408 EFLAGS: 00010046 [ 1013.477909] RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffffffff81104020 RCX: 0000000000000000 [ 1013.499458] RDX: ffff880148008ea8 RSI: ffffffff8131ef40 RDI: ffffffff82203b20 [ 1013.521612] RBP: ffffffff81005751 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 1013.543121] R10: ffffffff82cdc318 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff880145cc0000 [ 1013.564614] R13: ffff880148008eb8 R14: 0000000000000002 R15: ffff88014780cb40 [ 1013.586108] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880148000000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 1013.609458] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b [ 1013.627420] CR2: 0000000000000002 CR3: 0000000141f10000 CR4: 00000000001407e0 [ 1013.649051] DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 [ 1013.670724] DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 [ 1013.692376] Process kworker/2:1 (pid: 112, threadinfo ffff88013fe0e000, task ffff88014020a6a0) [ 1013.717028] Stack: [ 1013.724131] ffff88014780f570 ffff880145cc0000 0000400000004000 0000000000000000 [ 1013.745918] cccccccccccccccc ffff88014780cca8 ffffffff811072bb ffffffff81651627 [ 1013.767870] ffffffff8118f8a7 ffffffff811072bb ffffffff81f2b6c5 ffffffff81f11bdb [ 1013.790021] Call Trace: [ 1013.800701] Code: 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a <e7> d7 64 81 ff ff ff ff 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 65 d9 64 81 ff [ 1013.861443] RIP [<ffff88014630a000>] 0xffff880146309fff [ 1013.884466] RSP <ffff88014780f408> [ 1013.901507] CR2: 0000000000000002 The solution was to reuse the NMI functions that change the IDT table to make the debug stack keep its current stack (in kernel mode) when hitting a breakpoint: call debug_stack_set_zero TRACE_IRQS_ON call debug_stack_reset If the TRACE_IRQS_ON happens to hit a breakpoint then it will keep the current stack and not crash the box.

When the NMI handler runs, it checks if it preempted a debug handler and if that handler is using the debug stack. If it is, it changes the IDT table not to update the stack, otherwise it will reset the debug stack and corrupt the debug handler it preempted. Now that ftrace uses breakpoints to change functions from nops to callers, many more places may hit a breakpoint. Unfortunately this includes some of the calls that lockdep performs. Which causes issues with the debug stack. It too needs to change the debug stack before tracing (if called from the debug handler). Allow the debug_stack_set_zero() and debug_stack_reset() to be nested so that the debug handlers can take advantage of them too. [ Used this_cpu_*() over __get_cpu_var() as suggested by H. Peter Anvin ] Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When an NMI goes off and it sees that it preempted the debug stack, to keep the debug stack safe, it changes the IDT to point to one that does not modify the stack on breakpoint (to allow breakpoints in NMIs). But the variable that gets set to know to undo it on exit never gets cleared on exit. Thus every NMI will reset it on exit the first time it is done even if it does not need to be reset. [ Added H.
