commit ab4ead02ec235d706d0611d8741964628291237e upstream.
In commit 8a4d0a687a59 "ftrace: Use breakpoint method to update ftrace
caller", we choose to use breakpoint method to update the ftrace
caller. But we also need to skip over the breakpoint in function
ftrace_int3_handler() for them. Otherwise weird things would happen.

commit daf727225b8abfdfe424716abac3d15a3ac5626a upstream.
When I was looking at RHEL5.9's failure to start with
unrestricted_guest=0/emulate_invalid_guest_state=1, I got it working with a
slightly older tree than kvm.git. I now debugged the remaining failure,
which was introduced by commit 660696d1 (KVM: X86 emulator: fix
source operand decoding for 8bit mov[zs]x instructions, 2013-04-24)
introduced a similar mis-emulation to the one in commit 8acb4207 (KVM:
fix sil/dil/bpl/spl in the mod/rm fields, 2013-05-30). The incorrect
decoding occurs in 8-bit movzx/movsx instructions whose 8-bit operand
is sil/dil/bpl/spl.
Needless to say, "movzbl %bpl, %eax" does occur in RHEL5.9's decompression
prolog, just a handful of instructions before finally giving control to
the decompressed vmlinux and getting out of the invalid guest state.
Because OpMem8 bypasses decode_modrm, the same handling of the REX prefix
must be applied to OpMem8.

commit 11f918d3e2d3861b6931e97b3aa778e4984935aa upstream.
Do it the same way as done in microcode_intel.c: use pr_debug()
for missing firmware files.
There seem to be CPUs out there for which no microcode update
has been submitted to kernel-firmware repo yet resulting in

commit 522e66464467543c0d88d023336eec4df03ad40b upstream.
In reboot and crash path, when we shut down the local APIC, the I/O APIC is
still active. This may cause issues because external interrupts
can still come in and disturb the local APIC during shutdown process.
To quiet external interrupts, disable I/O APIC before shutdown local APIC.

commit ea8117478918a4734586d35ff530721b682425be upstream.
Mike reported that commit 7d1a9417 ("x86: Use generic idle loop")
regressed several workloads and caused excessive reschedule
interrupts.
The patch in question failed to notice that the x86 code had an
inverted sense of the polling state versus the new generic code (x86:
default polling, generic: default !polling).
Fix the two prominent x86 mwait based idle drivers and introduce a few
new generic polling helpers (fixing the wrong smp_mb__after_clear_bit
usage).
Also switch the idle routines to using tif_need_resched() which is an
immediate TIF_NEED_RESCHED test as opposed to need_resched which will
end up being slightly different.

Merge three fixes from Andrew Morton.
* emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>:
memcg: use __this_cpu_sub() to dec stats to avoid incorrect subtrahend casting
percpu: fix this_cpu_sub() subtrahend casting for unsigneds
mm/pagewalk.c: fix walk_page_range() access of wrong PTEs
|
|
this_cpu_sub() is implemented as negation and addition.
This patch casts the adjustment to the counter type before negation to
sign extend the adjustment. This helps in cases where the counter type
is wider than an unsigned adjustment. An alternative to this patch is
to declare such operations unsupported, but it seemed useful to avoid
surprises.
This patch specifically helps the following example:
unsigned int delta = 1
preempt_disable()
this_cpu_write(long_counter, 0)
this_cpu_sub(long_counter, delta)
preempt_enable()
Before this change long_counter on a 64 bit machine ends with value
0xffffffff, rather than 0xffffffffffffffff. This is because
this_cpu_sub(pcp, delta) boils down to this_cpu_add(pcp, -delta),
which is basically:
long_counter = 0 + 0xffffffff
Also apply the same cast to:
__this_cpu_sub()
__this_cpu_sub_return()
this_cpu_sub_return()
All percpu_test.ko passes, especially the following cases which
previously failed:
l -= ui_one;
__this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
l -= ui_one;
this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
CHECK(l, long_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);
ul -= ui_one;
__this_cpu_sub(ulong_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, -1);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);
ul = this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 2);
ul = __this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);

The x86 specific kvm init creates a new conflicting
debugfs directory which causes modprobe issues

sudo modprobe kvm_amd
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kvm_amd': Bad address
The simplest fix is to just rename the directory. The following

OK, so what I'm actually seeing on my WSM is that sched/clock.c is
'broken' for the purpose we're using it for.
What triggered it is that my WSM-EP is broken :-(
[ 0.001000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT
[ 0.002000] tsc: Detected 2533.715 MHz processor
[ 0.500180] TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#6]:
[ 0.505197] Measured 3 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock.
[ 0.004000] tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed
For some reason it consistently detects TSC skew, even though NHM+
should have a single clock domain for 'reasonable' systems.
This marks sched_clock_stable=0, which means that we do fancy stuff to
try and get a 'sane' clock. Part of this fancy stuff relies on the tick,
clearly that's gone when NOHZ=y. So for idle cpus time gets stuck, until
it either wakes up or gets kicked by another cpu.
While this is perfectly fine for the scheduler -- it only cares about
actually running stuff, and when we're running stuff we're obviously not
idle. This does somewhat break down for perf which can trigger events
just fine on an otherwise idle cpu.
So I've got NMIs get get 'measured' as taking ~1ms, which actually
don't last nearly that long:
<idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311970: rcu_nmi_enter <-do_nmi
...
<idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311997: perf_sample_event_took: HERE!!! : 1040990
So ftrace (which uses sched_clock(), not the fancy bits) only sees
~27us, but we measure ~1ms !!
Now since all this measurement stuff lives in x86 code, we can actually
fix it.

We use jump label to enable pv-spinlock. With the changes in (442e0973e927
Merge branch 'x86/jumplabel'), the jump label behaviour has changed
that would result in eventual hang of the VM since we would end up in a
situation where slow path locks would halt the vcpus but we will not be
able to wakeup the vcpu by lock releaser using unlock kick.
Similar problem in Xen and more detailed description is available in
a945928ea270 (xen: Do not enable spinlocks before jump_label_init()
has executed)
This patch splits kvm_spinlock_init to separate jump label changes with
pvops patching and also make jump label enabling after jump_label_init().

Due to the way kernel is initialized under Xen is possible that the
ring1 selector used by the kernel for the boot cpu end up to be copied
to userspace leading to segmentation fault in the userspace.
Xen code in the kernel initialize no-boot cpus with correct selectors (ds
and es set to __USER_DS) but the boot one keep the ring1 (passed by Xen).
On task context switch (switch_to) we assume that ds, es and cs already
point to __USER_DS and __KERNEL_CSso these selector are not changed.
If processor is an Intel that support sysenter instruction sysenter/sysexit
is used so ds and es are not restored switching back from kernel to
userspace. In the case the selectors point to a ring1 instead of __USER_DS
the userspace code will crash on first memory access attempt (to be
precise Xen on the emulated iret used to do sysexit will detect and set ds
and es to zero which lead to GPF anyway).
Now if an userspace process call kernel using sysenter and get rescheduled
(for me it happen on a specific init calling wait4) could happen that the
ring1 selector is set to ds and es.
This is quite hard to detect cause after a while these selectors are fixed
(__USER_DS seems sticky).
Bisecting the code commit 7076aada1040de4ed79a5977dbabdb5e5ea5e249 appears
to be the first one that have this issue.

72f857950f6f19 broke shadow on EPT. This patch reverts it and fixes PAE
on nEPT (which reverted commit fixed) in other way.
Shadow on EPT is now broken because while L1 builds shadow page table
for L2 (which is PAE while L2 is in real mode) it never loads L2's
GUEST_PDPTR[0-3]. They do not need to be loaded because without nested
virtualization HW does this during guest entry if EPT is disabled,
but in our case L0 emulates L2's vmentry while EPT is enables, so we
cannot rely on vmcs12->guest_pdptr[0-3] to contain up-to-date values
and need to re-read PDPTEs from L2 memory. This is what kvm_set_cr3()
is doing, but by clearing cache bits during L2 vmentry we drop values
that kvm_set_cr3() read from memory.
So why the same code does not work for PAE on nEPT? kvm_set_cr3()
reads pdptes into vcpu->arch.walk_mmu->pdptrs[]. walk_mmu points to
vcpu->arch.nested_mmu while nested guest is running, but ept_load_pdptrs()
uses vcpu->arch.mmu which contain incorrect values. Fix that by using
walk_mmu in ept_(load|save)_pdptrs.

Commit ebd97be635 ('PCI: remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI kconfig option')
removed the ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI option which architectures could select
to indicate that they support MSI. Now, all architectures are supposed
to build fine when MSI support is enabled: instead of having the
architecture tell *when* MSI support can be used, it's up to the
architecture code to ensure that MSI support can be enabled.
On x86, commit ebd97be635 removed the following line:
select ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI if (X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC)
Which meant that MSI support was only available when the local APIC
and I/O APIC were enabled. While this is always true on SMP or x86-64,
it is not necessarily the case on i386 !SMP.
The below patch makes sure that the local APIC and I/O APIC support is
always enabled when MSI support is enabled. To do so, it:
* Ensures the X86_UP_APIC option is not visible when PCI_MSI is
enabled. This is the option that allows, on UP machines, to enable
or not the APIC support. It is already not visible on SMP systems,
or x86-64 systems, for example. We're simply also making it
invisible on i386 MSI systems.
* Ensures that the X86_LOCAL_APIC and X86_IO_APIC options are 'y'
when PCI_MSI is enabled.
Notice that this change requires a change in drivers/iommu/Kconfig to
avoid a recursive Kconfig dependencey. The AMD_IOMMU option selects
PCI_MSI, but was depending on X86_IO_APIC. This dependency is no
longer needed: as soon as PCI_MSI is selected, the presence of
X86_IO_APIC is guaranteed. Moreover, the AMD_IOMMU already depended on
X86_64, which already guaranteed that X86_IO_APIC was enabled, so this
dependency was anyway redundant.

bootup warning
IORESOURCE_BUSY is used to mark temporary driver mem-resources
instead of global regions. This suppresses warnings if regions
overlap with a region marked as BUSY.
This was always the case for VESA/VGA/EFI framebuffer regions so
do the same for simplefb regions. The reason we do this is to
allow device handover to real GPU drivers like
i915/radeon/nouveau which get the same regions via PCI BARs.
Maybe at some point we will be able to unregister platform
devices properly during the handover. In this case the simplefb
region would get removed before the new region is created.
However, this is currently not the case and would require rather
huge changes in remove_conflicting_framebuffers(). Add the BUSY
marker now and try to eventually rewrite the handover for a next release.
Also see kernel/resource.c for more information:
/*
* if a resource is "BUSY", it's not a hardware resource
* but a driver mapping of such a resource; we don't want
* to warn for those; some drivers legitimately map only
* partial hardware resources. (example: vesafb)
*/
This suppresses warnings like:
------------[ cut here ]------------

On AMD family 14h, applying microcode patch on the a core (core0)
would also affect the other core (core1) in the same compute
unit. The driver would skip applying the patch on core1, but it
still need to update kernel structures to reflect the proper
patch level.
The current logic is not updating the struct
ucode_cpu_info.cpu_sig.rev of the skipped core. This causes the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/microcode/version to report
incorrect patch level as shown below:
$ grep . cpu?/microcode/version

On hosts with more than 168 GB of memory, a 32-bit guest may attempt
to grant map an MFN that is error cannot lookup in its mapping of the
m2p table. There is an m2p lookup as part of m2p_add_override() and
m2p_remove_override(). The lookup falls off the end of the mapped
portion of the m2p and (because the mapping is at the highest virtual
address) wraps around and the lookup causes a fault on what appears to
be a user space address.
do_page_fault() (thinking it's a fault to a userspace address), tries
to lock mm->mmap_sem. If the gntdev device is used for the grant map,
m2p_add_override() is called from from gnttab_mmap() with mm->mmap_sem
already locked. do_page_fault() then deadlocks.
The deadlock would most commonly occur when a 64-bit guest is started
and xenconsoled attempts to grant map its console ring.
Introduce mfn_to_pfn_no_overrides() which checks the MFN is within the
mapped portion of the m2p table before accessing the table and use
this in m2p_add_override(), m2p_remove_override(), and mfn_to_pfn()
(which already had the correct range check).
All faults caused by accessing the non-existant parts of the m2p are
thus within the kernel address space and exception_fixup() is called
without trying to lock mm->mmap_sem.
This means that for MFNs that are outside the mapped range of the m2p
then mfn_to_pfn() will always look in the m2p overrides. This is
correct because it must be a foreign MFN (and the PFN in the m2p in
this case is only relevant for the other domain).

xen_init_spinlocks() currently calls static_key_slow_inc() before
jump_label_init() is invoked. When CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL is set (which usually is
the case) the effect of this static_key_slow_inc() is deferred until after
jump_label_init(). This is different from when CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL is not set, in
which case the key is set immediately. Thus, depending on the value of config
option, we may observe different behavior.
In addition, when we come to __jump_label_transform() from jump_label_init(),
the key (paravirt_ticketlocks_enabled) is already enabled. On processors where
ideal_nop is not the same as default_nop this will cause a BUG() since it is
expected that before a key is enabled the latter is replaced by the former
during initialization.
To address this problem we need to move
static_key_slow_inc(¶virt_ticketlocks_enabled) so that it is called
after jump_label_init(). We also need to make sure that this is done before
other cpus start to boot. early_initcall appears to be a good place to do so.
(Note that we cannot move whole xen_init_spinlocks() there since pv_lock_ops
need to be set before alternative_instructions() runs.)

Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page::
cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially
fixed by:
860f085b74e9 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'")
The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released
officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is
not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the
field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used
on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel.
To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained,
by iterating the ABI the following way:
- Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not
confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable
to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit.
- Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new
libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero
without having to check the kernel version.
- Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:
cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */
- Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
accidentally with old assumptions.
The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.
Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
Adrian Hunter.
