2011-03-28powerpc: rtas_flash needs to use rtas_data_bufMilton Miller1-18/+21
commit bd2b64a12bf55bec0d1b949e3dca3f8863409646 upstream. When trying to flash a machine via the update_flash command, Anton received the following error: Restarting system. FLASH: kernel bug...flash list header addr above 4GB The code in question has a comment that the flash list should be in the kernel data and therefore under 4GB: /* NOTE: the "first" block list is a global var with no data * blocks in the kernel data segment. We do this because * we want to ensure this block_list addr is under 4GB. */ Unfortunately the Kconfig option is marked tristate which means the variable may not be in the kernel data and could be above 4GB. Instead of relying on the data segment being below 4GB, use the static data buffer allocated by the kernel for use by rtas. Since we don't use the header struct directly anymore, convert it to a simple pointer.

2011-03-28powerpc/kdump: Fix race in kdump shutdownMichael Neuling1-0/+27
commit 60adec6226bbcf061d4c2d10944fced209d1847d upstream. When we are crashing, the crashing/primary CPU IPIs the secondaries to turn off IRQs, go into real mode and wait in kexec_wait. While this is happening, the primary tears down all the MMU maps. Unfortunately the primary doesn't check to make sure the secondaries have entered real mode before doing this. On PHYP machines, the secondaries can take a long time shutting down the IRQ controller as RTAS calls are need. These RTAS calls need to be serialised which resilts in the secondaries contending in lock_rtas() and hence taking a long time to shut down. We've hit this on large POWER7 machines, where some secondaries are still waiting in lock_rtas(), when the primary tears down the HPTEs. This patch makes sure all secondaries are in real mode before the primary tears down the MMU. It uses the new kexec_state entry in the paca. It times out if the secondaries don't reach real mode after 10sec.

2011-03-21x86: Flush TLB if PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE modeShaohua Li2-10/+4
commit 4981d01eada5354d81c8929d5b2836829ba3df7b upstream. According to intel CPU manual, every time PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE mode, we need do a full TLB flush. Current code follows this and there is comment for this too in the code. But current code misses the multi-threaded case. A changed page table might be used by several CPUs, every such CPU should flush TLB. Usually this isn't a problem, because we prepopulate all PGD entries at process fork. But when the process does munmap and follows new mmap, this issue will be triggered. When it happens, some CPUs keep doing page faults: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129915020508238&w=2 Reported-by: Yasunori Goto<y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> Tested-by: Yasunori Goto<y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li<shaohua.li@intel.com> Cc: Mallick Asit K <asit.k.mallick@intel.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: linux-mm <linux-mm@kvack.org> LKML-Reference: <1300246649.2337.95.camel@sli10-conroe> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

commit f574c843191728d9407b766a027f779dcd27b272 upstream. When ia64 converted to using ticket locks, an inline implementation of trylock/unlock in fsys.S was missed. This was not noticed because in most circumstances it simply resulted in using the slow path because the siglock was apparently not available (under old spinlock rules). Problems occur when the ticket spinlock has value 0x0 (when first initialised, or when it wraps around). At this point the fsys.S code acquires the lock (changing the 0x0 to 0x1. If another process attempts to get the lock at this point, it will change the value from 0x1 to 0x2 (using new ticket lock rules). Then the fsys.S code will free the lock using old spinlock rules by writing 0x0 to it. From here a variety of bad things can happen.

commit f86268549f424f83b9eb0963989270e14fbfc3de upstream. mm_fault_error() should not execute oom-killer, if page fault occurs in kernel space. E.g. in copy_from_user()/copy_to_user(). This would happen if we find ourselves in OOM on a copy_to_user(), or a copy_from_user() which faults. Without this patch, the kernels hangs up in copy_from_user(), because OOM killer sends SIG_KILL to current process, but it can't handle a signal while in syscall, then the kernel returns to copy_from_user(), reexcute current command and provokes page_fault again.

2011-03-21powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexecMatt Evans1-0/+25
Commit: e8e5c2155b0035b6e04f29be67f6444bc914005b upstream When CPU hotplug is used, some CPUs may be offline at the time a kexec is performed. The subsequent kernel may expect these CPUs to be already running, and will declare them stuck. On pseries, there's also a soft-offline (cede) state that CPUs may be in; this can also cause problems as the kexeced kernel may ask RTAS if they're online -- and RTAS would say they are. The CPU will either appear stuck, or will cause a crash as we replace its cede loop beneath it. This patch kicks each present offline CPU awake before the kexec, so that none are forever lost to these assumptions in the subsequent kernel. Now, the behaviour is that all available CPUs that were offlined are now online & usable after the kexec. This mimics the behaviour of a full reboot (on which all CPUs will be restarted).

2011-03-21powerpc/kexec: Speedup kexec hash PTE tear downMichael Neuling1-13/+20
commit d504bed676caad29a3dba3d3727298c560628f5c upstream. Currently for kexec the PTE tear down on 1TB segment systems normally requires 3 hcalls for each PTE removal. On a machine with 32GB of memory it can take around a minute to remove all the PTEs. This optimises the path so that we only remove PTEs that are valid. It also uses the read 4 PTEs at once HCALL. For the common case where a PTEs is invalid in a 1TB segment, this turns the 3 HCALLs per PTE down to 1 HCALL per 4 PTEs. This gives an > 10x speedup in kexec times on PHYP, taking a 32GB machine from around 1 minute down to a few seconds.

commit 5d7a87217de48b234b3c8ff8a73059947d822e07 upstream. I saw this in a kdump kernel: IOMMU table initialized, virtual merging enabled Interrupt 155954 (real) is invalid, disabling it. Interrupt 155953 (real) is invalid, disabling it. ie we took some spurious interrupts. default_machine_crash_shutdown tries to disable all interrupt sources but uses chip->disable which maps to the default action of: static void default_disable(unsigned int irq) { } If we use chip->shutdown, then we actually mask the IRQ: static void default_shutdown(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_desc *desc = irq_to_desc(irq); desc->chip->mask(irq); desc->status |= IRQ_MASKED; } Not sure why we don't implement a ->disable action for xics.c, or why default_disable doesn't mask the interrupt.

2011-03-21powerpc/kdump: CPUs assume the context of the oopsing CPUAnton Blanchard1-1/+5
commit 0644079410065567e3bb31fcb8e6441f2b7685a9 upstream. We wrap the crash_shutdown_handles[] calls with longjmp/setjmp, so if any of them fault we can recover. The problem is we add a hook to the debugger fault handler hook which calls longjmp unconditionally. This first part of kdump is run before we marshall the other CPUs, so there is a very good chance some CPU on the box is going to page fault. And when it does it hits the longjmp code and assumes the context of the oopsing CPU. The machine gets very confused when it has 10 CPUs all with the same stack, all thinking they have the same CPU id. I get even more confused trying to debug it. The patch below adds crash_shutdown_cpu and uses it to specify which cpu is in the protected region. Since it can only be -1 or the oopsing CPU, we don't need to use memory barriers since it is only valid on the local CPU - no other CPU will ever see a value that matches it's local CPU id. Eventually we should switch the order and marshall all CPUs before doing the crash_shutdown_handles[] calls, but that is a bigger fix.

2011-03-21x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after ↵Suresh Siddha1-2/+3
switching mm commit 831d52bc153971b70e64eccfbed2b232394f22f8 upstream. Clearing the cpu in prev's mm_cpumask early will avoid the flush tlb IPI's while the cr3 is still pointing to the prev mm. And this window can lead to the possibility of bogus TLB fills resulting in strange failures. One such problematic scenario is mentioned below. T1. CPU-1 is context switching from mm1 to mm2 context and got a NMI etc between the point of clearing the cpu from the mm_cpumask(mm1) and before reloading the cr3 with the new mm2. T2. CPU-2 is tearing down a specific vma for mm1 and will proceed with flushing the TLB for mm1. It doesn't send the flush TLB to CPU-1 as it doesn't see that cpu listed in the mm_cpumask(mm1). T3. After the TLB flush is complete, CPU-2 goes ahead and frees the page-table pages associated with the removed vma mapping. T4. CPU-2 now allocates those freed page-table pages for something else. T5. As the CR3 and TLB caches for mm1 is still active on CPU-1, CPU-1 can potentially speculate and walk through the page-table caches and can insert new TLB entries. As the page-table pages are already freed and being used on CPU-2, this page walk can potentially insert a bogus global TLB entry depending on the (random) contents of the page that is being used on CPU-2. T6. This bogus TLB entry being global will be active across future CR3 changes and can result in weird memory corruption etc. To avoid this issue, for the prev mm that is handing over the cpu to another mm, clear the cpu from the mm_cpumask(prev) after the cr3 is changed. Marking it for -stable, though we haven't seen any reported failure that can be attributed to this.

2011-03-21x86, mtrr: Avoid MTRR reprogramming on BP during boot on UP platformsSuresh Siddha1-1/+9
commit f7448548a9f32db38f243ccd4271617758ddfe2c upstream. Markus Kohn ran into a hard hang regression on an acer aspire 1310, when acpi is enabled. git bisect showed the following commit as the bad one that introduced the boot regression. commit d0af9eed5aa91b6b7b5049cae69e5ea956fd85c3 Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Date: Wed Aug 19 18:05:36 2009 -0700 x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for MTRR/PAT init Because of the UP configuration of that platform, native_smp_prepare_cpus() bailed out (in smp_sanity_check()) before doing the set_mtrr_aps_delayed_init() Further down the boot path, native_smp_cpus_done() will call the delayed MTRR initialization for the AP's (mtrr_aps_init()) with mtrr_aps_delayed_init not set. This resulted in the boot processor reprogramming its MTRR's to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. While this is not needed ideally, this shouldn't have caused any side-effects. This is because the reprogramming of MTRR's (set_mtrr_state() that gets called via set_mtrr()) will check if the live register contents are different from what is being asked to write and will do the actual write only if they are different. BP's mtrr state is read during the start of the OS boot and typically nothing would have changed when we ask to reprogram it on BP again because of the above scenario on an UP platform. So on a normal UP platform no reprogramming of BP MTRR MSR's happens and all is well. However, on this platform, bios seems to be modifying the fixed mtrr range registers between the start of OS boot and when we double check the live registers for reprogramming BP MTRR registers. And as the live registers are modified, we end up reprogramming the MTRR's to the state seen during the start of the OS boot. During ACPI initialization, something in the bios (probably smi handler?) don't like this fact and results in a hard lockup. We didn't see this boot hang issue on this platform before the commit d0af9eed5aa91b6b7b5049cae69e5ea956fd85c3, because only the AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the value that BP had at the start of the OS boot. Fix this issue by checking mtrr_aps_delayed_init before continuing further in the mtrr_aps_init(). Now, only AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the BP values during boot. Addresses https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623393 [ By the way, this behavior of the bios modifying MTRR's after the start of the OS boot is not common and the kernel is not prepared to handle this situation well. Irrespective of this issue, during suspend/resume, linux kernel will try to reprogram the BP's MTRR values to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. So suspend/resume might be already broken on this platform for all linux kernel versions. ] Reported-and-bisected-by: Markus Kohn <jabber@gmx.org> Tested-by: Markus Kohn <jabber@gmx.org> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: Thomas Renninger <trenn@novell.com> Cc: Rafael Wysocki <rjw@novell.com> Cc: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venki@google.com> LKML-Reference: <1296694975.4418.402.camel@sbsiddha-MOBL3.sc.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

In fsl_rio_dbell_handler() the code currently simply acknowledges the QFI queue full interrupt, but does nothing to resolve the queue full condition. Instead, it jumps to the end of the isr. When a queue full condition occurs, the isr is then re-entered immediately and continually, forever. The fix is to just fall through and read out current doorbell entries.

commit 7f7fbf45c6b748074546f7f16b9488ca71de99c1 upstream. Interrupt-remapping gets enabled very early in the boot, as it determines the apic mode that the processor can use. And the current code enables the vt-d fault handling before the setup_local_APIC(). And hence the APIC LDR registers and data structure in the memory may not be initialized. So the vt-d fault handling in logical xapic/x2apic modes were broken. Fix this by enabling the vt-d fault handling in the end_local_APIC_setup() A cleaner fix of enabling fault handling while enabling intr-remapping will be addressed for v2.6.38.

2011-03-21nohz/s390: fix arch_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpusHeiko Carstens1-0/+19
commit 398812159e328478ae49b4bd01f0d71efea96c39 upstream. This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu() primitive: arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu". In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

2011-03-21compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()H. Peter Anvin7-7/+7
commit c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6 upstream. compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could introduce problems on some architectures. This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length. The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the implementation of the new global function. This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.

commit 36d001c70d8a0144ac1d038f6876c484849a74de upstream. On 64 bits, we always, by necessity, jump through the system call table via %rax. For 32-bit system calls, in theory the system call number is stored in %eax, and the code was testing %eax for a valid system call number. At one point we loaded the stored value back from the stack to enforce zero-extension, but that was removed in checkin d4d67150165df8bf1cc05e532f6efca96f907cab. An actual 32-bit process will not be able to introduce a non-zero-extended number, but it can happen via ptrace. Instead of re-introducing the zero-extension, test what we are actually going to use, i.e. %rax. This only adds a handful of REX prefixes to the code.

Commit 8b592783 added a Thumb-2 variant of usracc which, when it is called with \rept=2, calls usraccoff once with an offset of 0 and secondly with a hard-coded offset of 4 in order to avoid incrementing the pointer again. If \inc != 4 then we will store the data to the wrong offset from \ptr. Luckily, the only caller that passes \rept=2 to this function is __clear_user so we haven't been actively corrupting user data.

2011-03-21um: remove PAGE_SIZE alignment in linker script causing kernel segfault.Richard Weinberger1-1/+1
commit 6915e04f8847bea16d0890f559694ad8eedd026c upstream. The linker script cleanup that I did in commit 5d150a97f93 ("um: Clean up linker script using standard macros.") (2.6.32) accidentally introduced an ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE) when converting to use INIT_TEXT_SECTION; Richard Weinberger reported that this causes the kernel to segfault with CONFIG_STATIC_LINK=y. I'm not certain why this extra alignment is a problem, but it seems likely it is because previously __init_begin = _stext = _text = _sinittext and with the extra ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE), _sinittext becomes different from the rest. So there is likely a bug here where something is assuming that _sinittext is the same as one of those other symbols. But reverting the accidental change fixes the regression, so it seems worth committing that now.

Currently the redirection hint in the interrupt-remapping table entry is set to 0, which means the remapped interrupt is directed to the processors listed in the destination. So in logical flat mode in the presence of intr-remapping, this results in a single interrupt multi-casted to multiple cpu's as specified by the destination bit mask. But what we really want is to send that interrupt to one of the cpus based on the lowest priority delivery mode. Set the redirection hint in the IRTE to '1' to indicate that we want the remapped interrupt to be directed to only one of the processors listed in the destination. This fixes the issue of same interrupt getting delivered to multiple cpu's in the logical flat mode in the presence of interrupt-remapping. While there is no functional issue observed with this behavior, this will impact performance of such configurations (<=8 cpu's using logical flat mode in the presence of interrupt-remapping) Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> LKML-Reference: <20100827181049.013051492@sbsiddha-MOBL3.sc.intel.com> Cc: Weidong Han <weidong.han@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H.

2011-03-21x86, mtrr: Assume SYS_CFG[Tom2ForceMemTypeWB] exists on all future AMD CPUsAndreas Herrmann1-1/+1
commit 3fdbf004c1706480a7c7fac3c9d836fa6df20d7d upstream. Instead of adapting the CPU family check in amd_special_default_mtrr() for each new CPU family assume that all new AMD CPUs support the necessary bits in SYS_CFG MSR. Tom2Enabled is architectural (defined in APM Vol.2). Tom2ForceMemTypeWB is defined in all BKDGs starting with K8 NPT. In pre K8-NPT BKDG this bit is reserved (read as zero). W/o this adaption Linux would unnecessarily complain about bad MTRR settings on every new AMD CPU family, e.g. [ 0.000000] WARNING: BIOS bug: CPU MTRRs don't cover all of memory, losing 4863MB of RAM.
