In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with the mmap_sem hold in read mode. In those cases the huge page faults can allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd materializing as trans huge. It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds). The race is only with the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a pmd_trans_huge(). Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously. This is probably why it wasn't common to run into this. For example if the madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it will be zapped. Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a pmd_trans_huge()). The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack (regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code that computes its value. Even if the real pmd is changing under the value we hold on the stack, we don't care. If we actually end up in zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge, and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained above). All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad can run into a hugepmd. The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds). I don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and pmd_none_or_clear_bad). if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) { if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) { VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem)); split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd); } else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr)) continue; /* fall through */ } if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd)) Because this race condition could be exercised without special privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179. The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it. I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference. ====== start quote ======= mapcount 0 page_mapcount 1 kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1384! At some point prior to the panic, a "bad pmd ..." message similar to the following is logged on the console: mm/memory.c:145: bad pmd ffff8800376e1f98(80000000314000e7). The "bad pmd ..." message is logged by pmd_clear_bad() before it clears the page's PMD table entry. 143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd) 144 { -> 145 pmd_ERROR(*pmd); 146 pmd_clear(pmd); 147 } After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency. 1381 if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) 1382 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n", 1383 mapcount, page_mapcount(page)); -> 1384 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)); The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded process.

Thread B holds the page_table_lock while the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated. However, Thread A does not synchronize on that lock. ====== end quote ======= [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Reported-by: NUlrich Obergfell <uobergfe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Acked-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Acked-by: NLarry Woodman <lwoodman@redhat.com> Acked-by: NRik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [2.6.38+] Cc: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Patch adds x86_64 assembler implementation of Camellia block cipher. Two set of functions are provided. First set is regular 'one-block at time' encrypt/decrypt functions. Second is 'two-block at time' functions that gain performance increase on out-of-order CPUs. Performance of 2-way functions should be equal to 1-way functions with in-order CPUs. Patch has been tested with tcrypt and automated filesystem tests.

When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However, when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is enough room to store the final answer. We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing the multiplication separately on the two components. Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous fix in __cycles_2_ns().

This is required because we only update the sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want new tasks to appear. On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu, so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state. So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.

Commit f0fbf0ab ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit. The reason is that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and delay_64.c. Though the subtle difference of the result was: static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops) { - unsigned bclock, now; + unsigned long bclock, now; Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64 bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when bclock is read, because the following check if ((now - bclock) >= loops) break; evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0 because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in 0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops value.

Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either. And in those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()", and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev. The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent commit 83cd904d: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too. Thus this "let's avoid using this inconvenient and clearly too subtle interface when we don't really have to" patch.

Fix a bug in kprobes which can modify kernel code permanently at run-time. In the result, kernel can crash when it executes the modified code. This bug can happen when we put two probes enough near and the first probe is optimized. When the second probe is set up, it copies a byte which is already modified by the first probe, and executes it when the probe is hit. Even worse, the first probe and the second probe are removed respectively, the second probe writes back the copied (modified) instruction. To fix this bug, kprobes always recovers the original code and copies the first byte from recovered instruction.

Current probed-instruction recovery expects that only breakpoint instruction modifies instruction. However, since kprobes jump optimization can replace original instructions with a jump, that expectation is not enough. And it may cause instruction decoding failure on the function where an optimized probe already exists. This bug can reproduce easily as below: 1) find a target function address (any kprobe-able function is OK) $ grep __secure_computing /proc/kallsyms ffffffff810c19d0 T __secure_computing 2) decode the function $ objdump -d vmlinux --start-address=0xffffffff810c19d0 --stop-address=0xffffffff810c19eb vmlinux: file format elf64-x86-64 Disassembly of section .text: ffffffff810c19d0 <__secure_computing>: ffffffff810c19d0: 55 push %rbp ffffffff810c19d1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp ffffffff810c19d4: e8 67 8f 72 00 callq ffffffff817ea940 <mcount> ffffffff810c19d9: 65 48 8b 04 25 40 b8 mov %gs:0xb840,%rax ffffffff810c19e0: 00 00 ffffffff810c19e2: 83 b8 88 05 00 00 01 cmpl $0x1,0x588(%rax) ffffffff810c19e9: 74 05 je ffffffff810c19f0 <__secure_computing+0x20> 3) put a kprobe-event at an optimize-able place, where no call/jump places within the 5 bytes. $ su - # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events 4) enable it and check it is optimized. # echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable # cat ../kprobes/list ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED] 5) put another kprobe on an instruction after previous probe in the same function. # echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # dmesg | tail -n 1 [ 1666.500016] Probing address(0xffffffff810c19e2) is not an instruction boundary. 6) however, if the kprobes optimization is disabled, it works. # echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization # cat ../kprobes/list ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9 # echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events (no error) This is because kprobes doesn't recover the instruction which is overwritten with a relative jump by another kprobe when finding instruction boundary.

With branch stack sampling, it is possible to filter by priv levels. In system-wide mode, that means it is possible to capture only user level branches. The builtin SW LBR filter needs to disassemble code based on LBR captured addresses. For that, it needs to know the task the addresses are associated with. Because of context switches, the content of the branch stack buffer may contain addresses from different tasks. We need a callback on context switch to either flush the branch stack or save it. This patch adds a new callback in struct pmu which is called during context switches. The callback is called only when necessary. That is when a system-wide context has, at least, one event which uses PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK. The callback is never called for per-thread context. In this version, the Intel x86 code simply flushes (resets) the LBR on context switches (fills it with zeroes). Those zeroed branches are then filtered out by the SW filter.

This patch adds an internal sofware filter to complement the (optional) LBR hardware filter. The software filter is necessary: - as a substitute when there is no HW LBR filter (e.g., Atom, Core) - to complement HW LBR filter in case of errata (e.g., Nehalem/Westmere) - to provide finer grain filtering (e.g., all processors) Sometimes the LBR HW filter cannot distinguish between two types of branches. For instance, to capture syscall as CALLS, it is necessary to enable the LBR_FAR filter which will also capture JMP instructions. Thus, a second pass is necessary to filter those out, this is what the SW filter can do. The SW filter is built on top of the internal x86 disassembler. It is a best effort filter especially for user level code. It is subject to the availability of the text page of the program. The SW filter is enabled on all Intel processors. It is bypassed when the user is capturing all branches at all priv levels.

If precise sampling is enabled on Intel x86 then perf_event uses PEBS. To correct for the off-by-one error of PEBS, perf_event uses LBR when precise_sample > 1. On Intel x86 PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK is implemented using LBR, therefore both features must be coordinated as they may not configure LBR the same way. For PEBS, LBR needs to capture all branches at the priv level of the associated event. This patch checks that the branch type and priv level of BRANCH_STACK is compatible with that of the PEBS LBR requirement, thereby allowing: $ perf record -b any,u -e instructions:upp .... But: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e instructions:upp Is not possible.

The Intel LBR on some recent processor is capable of filtering branches by type. The filter is configurable via the LBR_SELECT MSR register. There are limitation on how this register can be used. On Nehalem/Westmere, the LBR_SELECT is shared by the two HT threads when HT is on. It is private to each core when HT is off. On SandyBridge, the LBR_SELECT register is private to each thread when HT is on. It is private to each core when HT is off. The kernel must manage the sharing of LBR_SELECT. It allows multiple users on the same logical CPU to use LBR_SELECT as long as they program it with the same value. Across sibling CPUs (HT threads), the same restriction applies on NHM/WSM. This patch implements this sharing logic by leveraging the mechanism put in place for managing the offcore_response shared MSR. We modify __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to cause x86_get_event_constraint() to be called because LBR may be associated with events that may be counter constrained.

This patch adds the ability to sample taken branches to the perf_event interface. The ability to capture taken branches is very useful for all sorts of analysis. For instance, basic block profiling, call counts, statistical call graph. This new capability requires hardware assist and as such may not be available on all HW platforms. On Intel x86 it is implemented on top of the Last Branch Record (LBR) facility. To enable taken branches sampling, the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK bit must be set in attr->sample_type. Sampled taken branches may be filtered by type and/or priv levels. The patch adds a new field, called branch_sample_type, to the perf_event_attr structure. It contains a bitmask of filters to apply to the sampled taken branches. Filters may be implemented in HW. If the HW filter does not exist or is not good enough, some arch may also implement a SW filter. The following generic filters are currently defined: - PERF_SAMPLE_USER only branches whose targets are at the user level - PERF_SAMPLE_KERNEL only branches whose targets are at the kernel level - PERF_SAMPLE_HV only branches whose targets are at the hypervisor level - PERF_SAMPLE_ANY any type of branches (subject to priv levels filters) - PERF_SAMPLE_ANY_CALL any call branches (may incl. syscall on some arch) - PERF_SAMPLE_ANY_RET any return branches (may incl. syscall returns on some arch) - PERF_SAMPLE_IND_CALL indirect call branches Obviously filter may be combined. The priv level bits are optional. If not provided, the priv level of the associated event are used. It is possible to collect branches at a priv level different from the associated event. Use of kernel, hv priv levels is subject to permissions and availability (hv). The number of taken branch records present in each sample may vary based on HW, the type of sampled branches, the executed code. Therefore each sample contains the number of taken branches it contains.

Currently cache alignment among nodes in the kernel is still 128 bytes on x86 NUMA machines - we got that X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT default from old P4 processors. But now most modern x86 CPUs use the same size: 64 bytes from L1 to last level L3. so let's remove the incorrect setting, and directly use the L1 cache size to do SMP cache line alignment.

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control register and SVM is disabled in EFER. This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit in the performance counter control register when SVM is not enabled. The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is disabled the counter should not run at all and the not-counting is the intended behaviour.

Ok, we can add a quirk. dmidecode output reveals that this is an MSI MS-7253, for which we already have a quirk, but the short-sighted author tied the quirk to a single BIOS version, making it not kick in on Carlos's machine with BIOS V1.2. If a later BIOS update makes it no longer necessary to look at the _CRS info it will still be harmless, so let's stop trying to guess which versions have and don't have accurate _CRS tables.
