"Zero length call" uses the attribute of the call instruction to push the immediate instruction pointer on to the stack and then pops off that address into a register. This is accomplished without any matching return instruction. It confuses the hardware and make the recorded call stack incorrect. We can partially resolve this issue by: decode call instructions and discard any zero length call entry in the LBR stack.

LBR callstack is designed for PEBS, It does not work well with FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI for non PEBS event. If FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI is set for non PEBS event, PMIs near call/return instructions may cause superfluous increase/decrease of LBR_TOS. This patch modifies __intel_pmu_lbr_enable() to not enable FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI when LBR operates in callstack mode. We currently don't use LBR callstack to capture kernel space callchain, so disabling FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI should not be a problem.

Use event->attr.branch_sample_type to replace intel_pmu_needs_lbr_smpl() for avoiding duplicated code that implicitly enables the LBR. Currently, branch stack can be enabled by user explicitly requesting branch sampling or implicit branch sampling to correct PEBS skid. For user explicitly requested branch sampling, the branch_sample_type is explicitly set by user. For PEBS case, the branch_sample_type is also implicitly set to PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_ANY in x86_pmu_hw_config.

When the LBR call stack is enabled, it is necessary to save/restore the LBR stack on context switch. The solution is saving/restoring the LBR stack to/from task's perf event context. The LBR stack is saved/restored only when there are events that use the LBR call stack. If no event uses LBR call stack, the LBR stack is reset when task is scheduled in.

Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to record call chains. To enable this feature, bits (JCC, NEAR_IND_JMP, NEAR_REL_JMP, FAR_BRANCH, EN_CALLSTACK) in LBR_SELECT must be set to 1, bits (NEAR_REL_CALL, NEAR-IND_CALL, NEAR_RET) must be cleared. Due to a hardware bug of Haswell, this feature doesn't work well with FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI. When the call stack feature is enabled, the LBR stack will capture unfiltered call data normally, but as return instructions are executed, the last captured branch record is flushed from the on-chip registers in a last-in first-out (LIFO) manner. Thus, branch information relative to leaf functions will not be captured, while preserving the call stack information of the main line execution path. This patch defines a separate lbr_sel map for Haswell. The map contains a new entry for the call stack feature.

The callback is invoked when process is scheduled in or out. It provides mechanism for later patches to save/store the LBR stack. For the schedule in case, the callback is invoked at the same place that flush branch stack callback is invoked. So it also can replace the flush branch stack callback.

While perfmon2 is a sufficiently evil library (it pokes MSRs directly) that breaking it is fair game, it's still useful, so we might as well try to support it. This allows users to write 2 to /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc to disable all rdpmc protection so that hack like perfmon2 can continue to work.

We currently allow any process to use rdpmc. This significantly weakens the protection offered by PR_TSC_DISABLED, and it could be helpful to users attempting to exploit timing attacks. Since we can't enable access to individual counters, use a very coarse heuristic to limit access to rdpmc: allow access only when a perf_event is mmapped. This protects seccomp sandboxes. There is plenty of room to further tighen these restrictions. For example, this allows rdpmc for any x86_pmu event, but it's only useful for self-monitoring tasks. As a side effect, cap_user_rdpmc will now be false for AMD uncore events. This isn't a real regression, since .event_idx is disabled for these events anyway for the time being. Whenever that gets re-added, the cap_user_rdpmc code can be adjusted or refactored accordingly.

Context switches and TLB flushes can change individual bits of CR4. CR4 reads take several cycles, so store a shadow copy of CR4 in a per-cpu variable. To avoid wasting a cache line, I added the CR4 shadow to cpu_tlbstate, which is already touched in switch_mm. The heaviest users of the cr4 shadow will be switch_mm and __switch_to_xtra, and __switch_to_xtra is called shortly after switch_mm during context switch, so the cacheline is likely to be hot.

CR4 manipulation was split, seemingly at random, between direct (write_cr4) and using a helper (set/clear_in_cr4). Unfortunately, the set_in_cr4 and clear_in_cr4 helpers also poke at the boot code, which only a small subset of users actually wanted. This patch replaces all cr4 access in functions that don't leave cr4 exactly the way they found it with new helpers cr4_set_bits, cr4_clear_bits, and cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot.

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the sysfs_show() routine for the RAPL PMU. The current code was wrongly relying on the EVENT_ATTR_STR() macro which uses the events_sysfs_show() function in the x86 PMU code. That function itself was relying on the x86_pmu data structure. Yet RAPL and the core PMU (x86_pmu) have nothing to do with each other. They should therefore not interact with each other. The x86_pmu structure is initialized at boot time based on the host CPU model. When the host CPU is not supported, the x86_pmu remains uninitialized and some of the callbacks it contains are NULL. The false dependency with x86_pmu could potentially cause crashes in case the x86_pmu is not initialized while the RAPL PMU is. This may, for instance, be the case in virtualized environments. This patch fixes the problem by using a private sysfs_show() routine for exporting the RAPL PMU events.

We currently pretend that IST context is like standard exception context, but this is incorrect. IST entries from userspace are like standard exceptions except that they use per-cpu stacks, so they are atomic. IST entries from kernel space are like NMIs from RCU's perspective -- they are not quiescent states even if they interrupted the kernel during a quiescent state. Add and use ist_enter and ist_exit to track IST context. Even though x86_32 has no IST stacks, we track these interrupts the same way. This fixes two issues: - Scheduling from an IST interrupt handler will now warn. It would previously appear to work as long as we got lucky and nothing overwrote the stack frame. (I don't know of any bugs in this that would trigger the warning, but it's good to be on the safe side.) - RCU handling in IST context was dangerous. As far as I know, only machine checks were likely to trigger this, but it's good to be on the safe side. Note that the machine check handlers appears to have been missing any context tracking at all before this patch. Cc: "Paul E.

Commit 9def39be ("x86: Support compiling out human-friendly processor feature names") made two source file targets conditional. Such conditional targets will not be cleaned automatically by make mrproper. Fix by adding explicit clean-files targets for the two files.

The uncore_collect_events functions assumes that event group might contain only uncore events which is wrong, because it might contain any type of events. This bug leads to uncore framework touching 'not' uncore events, which could end up all sorts of bugs. One was triggered by Vince's perf fuzzer, when the uncore code touched breakpoint event private event space as if it was uncore event and caused BUG: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffff82822068 IP: [<ffffffff81020338>] uncore_assign_events+0x188/0x250 ... The code in uncore_assign_events() function was looking for event->hw.idx data while the event was initialized as a breakpoint with different members in event->hw union. This patch forces uncore_collect_events() to collect only uncore events.

I'm such a moron! The simple solution of saving the BSP patch for use on resume was too simple (and wrong!), hint: sizeof(struct microcode_intel). What needs to be done instead is to fish out the microcode patch we have stashed previously and apply that on the BSP in case the late loader hasn't been utilized. So do that instead.

Normally, we do reapply microcode on resume. However, in the cases where that microcode comes from the early loader and the late loader hasn't been utilized yet, there's no easy way for us to go and apply the patch applied during boot by the early loader. Thus, reuse the patch stashed by the early loader for the BSP. Signed-off-by: NBorislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> -

Paravirtual guests are not expected to load microcode into processors and therefore it is not necessary to initialize microcode loading logic. In fact, under certain circumstances initializing this logic may cause the guest to crash. Specifically, 32-bit kernels use __pa_nodebug() macro which does not work in Xen (the code path that leads to this macro happens during resume when we call mc_bp_resume()->load_ucode_ap() ->check_loader_disabled_ap()) Signed-off-by: NBoris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1417469264-31470-1-git-send-email-boris.ostrovsky@oracle.comSigned-off-by: NBorislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

First, there was this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88001 The problem there was that microcode patches are not being reapplied after suspend-to-ram. It was important to reapply them, though, because of for example Haswell's TSX erratum which disabled TSX instructions with a microcode patch. A simple fix was fb86b973 ("x86, microcode: Update BSPs microcode on resume") but, as it is often the case, simple fixes are too simple. This one causes 32-bit resume to fail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88391 Properly fixing this would require more involved changes for which it is too late now, right before the merge window. Thus, limit this to 64-bit only temporarily.

Uncorrected no action required (UCNA) - is a uncorrected recoverable machine check error that is not signaled via a machine check exception and, instead, is reported to system software as a corrected machine check error. UCNA errors indicate that some data in the system is corrupted, but the data has not been consumed and the processor state is valid and you may continue execution on this processor. UCNA errors require no action from system software to continue execution. Note that UCNA errors are supported by the processor only when IA32_MCG_CAP[24] (MCG_SER_P) is set. -- Intel SDM Volume 3B Deferred errors are errors that cannot be corrected by hardware, but do not cause an immediate interruption in program flow, loss of data integrity, or corruption of processor state. These errors indicate that data has been corrupted but not consumed. Hardware writes information to the status and address registers in the corresponding bank that identifies the source of the error if deferred errors are enabled for logging. Deferred errors are not reported via machine check exceptions; they can be seen by polling the MCi_STATUS registers. -- AMD64 APM Volume 2 Above two items, both UCNA and Deferred errors belong to detected errors, but they can't be corrected by hardware, and this is very similar to Software Recoverable Action Optional (SRAO) errors. Therefore, we can take some actions that have been used for handling SRAO errors to handle UCNA and Deferred errors.
