On x86_64 we must disable preemption before we enable interrupts
for stack faults, int3 and debugging, because the current task is using
a per CPU debug stack defined by the IST. If we schedule out, another task
can come in and use the same stack and cause the stack to be corrupted
and crash the kernel on return.
When CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL is enabled, spin_locks become mutexes, and
one of these is the spin lock used in signal handling.
Some of the debug code (int3) causes do_trap() to send a signal.
This function calls a spin lock that has been converted to a mutex
and has the possibility to sleep. If this happens, the above issues with
the corrupted stack is possible.
Instead of calling the signal right away, for PREEMPT_RT and x86_64,
the signal information is stored on the stacks task_struct and
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is set. Then on exit of the trap, the signal resume
code will send the signal when preemption is enabled.

The arm boot_lock is used by the secondary processor startup code. The locking
task is the idle thread, which has idle->sched_class == &idle_sched_class.
idle_sched_class->enqueue_task == NULL, so if the idle task blocks on the
lock, the attempt to wake it when the lock becomes available will fail:
try_to_wake_up()
...
activate_task()
enqueue_task()
p->sched_class->enqueue_task(rq, p, flags)
Fix by converting boot_lock to a raw spin lock.

| kernel: WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 858 at kernel/sched/core.c:2462 migrate_enable+0x17b/0x200()
| kernel: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 865 at kernel/sched/core.c:2428 migrate_disable+0xed/0x100()
and his backtrace showed some crypto functions which looked fine.
The problem is the following sequence:
glue_xts_crypt_128bit()
{
blkcipher_walk_virt(); /* normal migrate_disable() */
glue_fpu_begin(); /* get atomic */
while (nbytes) {
__glue_xts_crypt_128bit();
blkcipher_walk_done(); /* with nbytes = 0, migrate_enable()
* while we are atomic */
};
glue_fpu_end() /* no longer atomic */
}
and this is why the counter get out of sync and the warning is printed.
The other problem is that we are non-preemptible between
glue_fpu_begin() and glue_fpu_end() and the latency grows. To fix this,
I shorten the FPU off region and ensure blkcipher_walk_done() is called
with preemption enabled. This might hurt the performance because we now
enable/disable the FPU state more often but we gain lower latency and
the bug is gone.

In fact, with migrate_disable() existing one could play games with
kmap_atomic. You could save/restore the kmap_atomic slots on context
switch (if there are any in use of course), this should be esp easy now
that we have a kmap_atomic stack.
Something like the below.. it wants replacing all the preempt_disable()
stuff with pagefault_disable() && migrate_disable() of course, but then
you can flip kmaps around like below.

irq_work is processed in softirq context on -RT because we want to avoid
long latencies which might arise from processing lots of perf events.
The noHZ-full mode requires its callback to be called from real hardirq
context (commit 76c24fb ("nohz: New APIs to re-evaluate the tick on full
dynticks CPUs")). If it is called from a thread context we might get
wrong results for checks like "is_idle_task(current)".
This patch introduces a second list (hirq_work_list) which will be used
if irq_work_run() has been invoked from hardirq context and process only
work items marked with IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ.
This patch also removes arch_irq_work_raise() from sparc & powerpc like
it is already done for x86. Atleast for powerpc it is somehow
superfluous because it is called from the timer interrupt which should
invoke update_process_times().

where do I start. Let me explain what is going on here. The code
sequence
| pushf
| pop %edx
| or $0x1,%dh
| push %edx
| mov $0xe0,%eax
| popf
| sysenter
triggers the bug. On 64bit kernel we see the double fault (with 32bit and
64bit userland) and on 32bit kernel there is no problem. The reporter said
that double fault does not happen on 64bit kernel with 64bit userland and
this is because in that case the VDSO uses the "syscall" interface instead
of "sysenter".
The bug. "popf" loads the flags with the TF bit set which enables
"single stepping" and this leads to a debug exception. Usually on 64bit
we have a special IST stack for the debug exception. Due to patch [0] we
do not use the IST stack but the kernel stack instead. On 64bit the
sysenter instruction starts in kernel with the stack address NULL. The
code sequence above enters the debug exception (TF flag) after the
sysenter instruction was executed which sets the stack pointer to NULL
and we have a fault (it seems that the debug exception saves some bytes
on the stack).
To fix the double fault I'm going to drop patch [0]. It is completely
pointless. In do_debug() and do_stack_segment() we disable preemption
which means the task can't leave the CPU. So it does not matter if we run
on IST or on kernel stack.
There is a patch [1] which drops preempt_disable() call for a 32bit
kernel but not for 64bit so there should be no regression.
And [1] seems valid even for this code sequence. We enter the debug
exception with a 256bytes long per cpu stack and migrate to the kernel
stack before calling do_debug().

Normally the x86-64 trap handlers for debug/int 3/stack fault run
on a special interrupt stack to make them more robust
when dealing with kernel code.
The PREEMPT_RT kernel can sleep in locks even while allocating
GFP_ATOMIC memory. When one of these trap handlers needs to send
real time signals for ptrace it allocates memory and could then
try to to schedule. But it is not allowed to schedule on a
IST stack. This can cause warnings and hangs.
This patch disables the IST stacks for these handlers for PREEMPT_RT
kernel. Instead let them run on the normal process stack.
The kernel only really needs the ISTs here to make kernel debuggers more
robust in case someone sets a break point somewhere where the stack is
invalid. But there are no kernel debuggers in the standard kernel
that do this.
It also means kprobes cannot be set in situations with invalid stack;
but that sounds like a reasonable restriction.
The stack fault change could minimally impact oops quality, but not very
much because stack faults are fairly rare.
A better solution would be to use similar logic as the NMI "paranoid"
path: check if signal is for user space, if yes go back to entry.S, switch stack,
call sync_regs, then do the signal sending etc.
But this patch is much simpler and should work too with minimal impact.

CPU bringup calls into the random pool to initialize the stack
canary. During boot that works nicely even on RT as the might sleep
checks are disabled. During CPU hotplug the might sleep checks
trigger. Making the locks in random raw is a major PITA, so avoid the
call on RT is the only sensible solution. This is basically the same
randomness which we get during boot where the random pool has no
entropy and we rely on the TSC randomnness.

We had a customer report a lockup on a 3.0-rt kernel that had the
following backtrace:
[ffff88107fca3e80] rt_spin_lock_slowlock at ffffffff81499113
[ffff88107fca3f40] rt_spin_lock at ffffffff81499a56
[ffff88107fca3f50] __wake_up at ffffffff81043379

[ffff88107fca3f90] intel_threshold_interrupt at ffffffff81019508
[ffff88107fca3fa0] smp_threshold_interrupt at ffffffff81019fc1
[ffff88107fca3fb0] threshold_interrupt at ffffffff814a1853
It actually bugged because the lock was taken by the same owner that
already had that lock. What happened was the thread that was setting
itself on a wait queue had the lock when an MCE triggered. The MCE
interrupt does a wake up on its wait list and grabs the same lock.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A BUG ON MAINLINE
Sorry for yelling, but as I Cc'd mainline maintainers I want them to
know that this is an PREEMPT_RT bug only. I only Cc'd them for advice.
On PREEMPT_RT the wait queue locks are converted from normal
"spin_locks" into an rt_mutex (see the rt_spin_lock_slowlock above).
These are not to be taken by hard interrupt context. This usually isn't
a problem as most all interrupts in PREEMPT_RT are converted into
schedulable threads. Unfortunately that's not the case with the MCE irq.
As wait queue locks are notorious for long hold times, we can not
convert them to raw_spin_locks without causing issues with -rt. But
Thomas has created a "simple-wait" structure that uses raw spin locks
which may have been a good fit.
Unfortunately, wait queues are not the only issue, as the mce_notify_irq
also does a schedule_work(), which grabs the workqueue spin locks that
have the exact same issue.
Thus, this patch I'm proposing is to move the actual work of the MCE
interrupt into a helper thread that gets woken up on the MCE interrupt
and does the work in a schedulable context.
NOTE: THIS PATCH ONLY CHANGES THE BEHAVIOR WHEN PREEMPT_RT IS SET
Oops, sorry for yelling again, but I want to stress that I keep the same
behavior of mainline when PREEMPT_RT is not set. Thus, this only changes
the MCE behavior when PREEMPT_RT is configured.

Without this patch, ARM can not use SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS if
PREEMPT_RT_FULL=y because vectors_user_mapping() creates a
VM_ALWAYSDUMP mapping of the vector page (address 0xffff0000), but no
ptl->lock has been allocated for the page. An attempt to coredump
that page will result in a kernel NULL pointer dereference when
follow_page() attempts to lock the page.
The call tree to the NULL pointer dereference is:
do_notify_resume()
get_signal_to_deliver()
do_coredump()
elf_core_dump()
get_dump_page()
__get_user_pages()
follow_page()

Preemption must be disabled before enabling interrupts in do_trap
on x86_64 because the stack in use for int3 and debug is a per CPU
stack set by th IST. But 32bit does not have an IST and the stack
still belongs to the current task and there is no problem in scheduling
out the task.
Keep preemption enabled on X86_32 when enabling interrupts for
do_trap().
The name of the function is changed from preempt_conditional_sti/cli()
to conditional_sti/cli_ist(), to annotate that this function is used
when the stack is on the IST.
