Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains two main changes:
- The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
arch/x86/fpu/.
The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
understand. This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).
By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
back to kernel side backs. I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
suspected) FPU related regression so far.
- MPX support rework/fixes. As this is still not a released CPU
feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more
robust now (Dave Hansen)"

When building the kernel with 32-bit binutils built with support
only for the i386 target, we get the following warning:
arch/x86/kernel/head_32.S:66: Warning: shift count out of range (32 is not between 0 and 31)
The problem is that in that case, binutils' internal type
representation is 32-bit wide and the shift range overflows.
In order to fix this, manipulate the shift expression which
creates the 4GiB constant to not overflow the shift count.

Architectural performance monitoring, version 1, doesn't support fixed counters.
Currently, even if a hypervisor advertises support for architectural
performance monitoring version 1, perf may still try to use the fixed
counters, as the constraints are set up based on the CPU model.
This patch ensures that perf honors the architectural performance monitoring
version returned by CPUID, and it only uses the fixed counters for version 2
and above.
(Some of the ideas in this patch came from Peter Zijlstra.)

Intel PT is a separate PMU and it is not using any of the x86_pmu
code paths, which means in particular that the active_events counter
remains intact when new PT events are created.
However, PT uses the generic x86_pmu PMI handler for its PMI handling needs.
The problem here is that the latter checks active_events and in case of it
being zero, exits without calling the actual x86_pmu.handle_nmi(), which
results in unknown NMI errors and massive data loss for PT.
The effect is not visible if there are other perf events in the system
at the same time that keep active_events counter non-zero, for instance
if the NMI watchdog is running, so one needs to disable it to reproduce
the problem.
At the same time, the active_events counter besides doing what the name
suggests also implicitly serves as a PMC hardware and DS area reference
counter.
This patch adds a separate reference counter for the PMC hardware, leaving
active_events for actually counting the events and makes sure it also
counts PT and BTS events.

Currently, the intel_bts driver relies on the DS area allocated by the x86_pmu
code in its event_init() path, which is a bug: creating a BTS event while
no x86_pmu events are present results in a NULL pointer dereference.
The same DS area is also used by PEBS sampling, which makes it quite a bit
trickier to have a separate one for intel_bts' purposes.
This patch makes intel_bts driver use the same DS allocation and reference
counting code as x86_pmu to make sure it is always present when either
intel_bts or x86_pmu need it.

KVM: x86: fix lapic.timer_mode on restore

lapic.timer_mode was not properly initialized after migration, which
broke few useful things, like login, by making every sleep eternal.
Fix this by calling apic_update_lvtt in kvm_apic_post_state_restore.
There are other slowpaths that update lvtt, so this patch makes sure
something similar doesn't happen again by calling apic_update_lvtt
after every modification.

I noticed that my MPX tracepoints were producing garbage for the
lower and upper bounds:
mpx_bounds_register_exception: address referenced: 0x00007fffffffccb7 bounds: lower: 0x0 ~upper: 0xffffffffffffffff
mpx_bounds_register_exception: address referenced: 0x00007fffffffccbf bounds: lower: 0x0 ~upper: 0xffffffffffffffff
This is, of course, bogus because 0x00007fffffffccbf is *within*
the bounds. I assumed that my instruction decoder was bad and
went looking at it. But I eventually realized that I was
getting a '0' offset back from xstate_offsets[BNDREGS].
It was being skipped in the initialization, which is obviously
bogus, so remove the extra leaf++.
This also goes an initializes xstate_offsets/sizes[] to -1 so
so that bugs like this will oops instead of silently failing
in interesting ways.
This was introduced by:

When the crash kernel is loaded above 4GiB in memory, the
first kernel allocates only 72MiB of low-memory for the DMA
requirements of the second kernel. On systems with many
devices this is not enough and causes device driver
initialization errors and failed crash dumps. Testing by
SUSE and Redhat has shown that 256MiB is a good default
value for now and the discussion has lead to this value as
well. So set this default value to 256MiB to make sure there
is enough memory available for DMA.

The comment pretty much says it all.
I wrote a test program that does lots of random allocations
and forces bounds tables to be created. It came up with a
layout like this:
.... | BOUNDS DIRECTORY ENTRY COVERS | ....
| BOUNDS TABLE COVERS |
| BOUNDS TABLE | REAL ALLOC | BOUNDS TABLE |
Unmapping "REAL ALLOC" should have been able to free the
bounds table "covering" the "REAL ALLOC" because it was the
last real user. But, the neighboring VMA bounds tables were
found, considered as real neighbors, and we declined to free
the bounds table covering the area.
Doing this over and over left a small but significant number
of these orphans. Handling them is fairly straighforward.
All we have to do is walk the VMAs and skip all of the MPX
ones when looking for neighbors.

The MPX code needs to clear out bounds tables for memory which
is no longer in use. We do this when a userspace mapping is
torn down (unmapped).
There are two modes:
1. An entire bounds table becomes unused, and can be freed
and its pointer removed from the bounds directory. This
happens either when a large mapping is torn down, or when
a small mapping is torn down and it is the last mapping
"covered" by a bounds table.
2. Only part of a bounds table becomes unused, in which case
we free the backing memory as if MADV_DONTNEED was called.
The old code was a spaghetti mess of "edge" bounds tables
where the edges were handled specially, even if we were
unmapping an entire one. Non-edge bounds tables are always
fully unmapped, but share a different code path from the edge
ones. The old code had a bug where it was unmapping too much
memory. I worked on fixing it for two days and gave up.
I didn't write the original code. I didn't particularly like
it, but it worked, so I left it. After my debug session, I
realized it was undebuggagle *and* buggy, so out it went.
I also wrote a new unmapping test program which uncovers bugs
pretty nicely.

Right now, the kernel can only switch between 64-bit and 32-bit
binaries at compile time. This patch adds support for 32-bit
binaries on 64-bit kernels when we support ia32 emulation.
We essentially choose which set of table sizes to use when doing
arithmetic for the bounds table calculations.
This also uses a different approach for calculating the table
indexes than before. I think the new one makes it much more
clear what is going on, and allows us to share more code between
the 32-bit and 64-bit cases.

user_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() actually looks at sizeof(*ptr) to
figure out how many bytes to copy. If we run it on a 64-bit
kernel with a 64-bit pointer, it will copy a 64-bit bounds
directory entry. That's fine, except when we have 32-bit
programs with 32-bit bounds directory entries and we only *want*
32-bits.
This patch breaks the cmpxchg() operation out in to its own
function and performs the 32-bit type swizzling in there.
Note, the "64-bit" version of this code _would_ work on a
32-bit-only kernel. The issue this patch addresses is only for
when the kernel's 'long' is mismatched from the size of the
bounds directory entry of the process we are working on.
The new helper modifies 'actual_old_val' or returns an error.
But gcc doesn't know this, so it warns about 'actual_old_val'
being unused. Shut it up with an uninitialized_var().

Currently, to get from a bounds directory entry to the virtual
address of a bounds table, we simply mask off a few low bits.
However, the set of bits we mask off is different for 32-bit and
64-bit binaries.
This breaks the operation out in to a helper function and also
adds a temporary variable to store the result until we are
sure we are returning one.

When we allocate a bounds table, we call mmap(), then add a
"valid" bit to the value before storing it in to the bounds
directory.
If we fail along the way, we go and mask that valid bit
_back_ out. That seems a little silly, and this makes it
much more clear when we have a plain address versus an
actual table _entry_.

The uprobes code has a nice helper, is_64bit_mm(), that consults
both the runtime and compile-time flags for 32-bit support.
Instead of reinventing the wheel, pull it in to an x86 header so
we can use it for MPX.
I prefer passing the 'mm' around to test_thread_flag(TIF_IA32)
because it makes it explicit where the context is coming from.

There are two different events being traced here. They are
doing similar things so share a trace "EVENT_CLASS" and are
presented together.
1. Trace when MPX is zapping pages "mpx_unmap_zap":
When MPX can not free an entire bounds table, it will
instead try to zap unused parts of a bounds table to free
the backing memory. This decreases RSS (resident set
size) without decreasing the virtual space allocated
for bounds tables.
2. Trace attempts to find bounds tables "mpx_unmap_search":
This event traces any time we go looking to unmap a
bounds table for a given virtual address range. This is
useful to ensure that the kernel actually "tried" to free
a bounds table versus times it succeeded in finding one.
It might try and fail if it realized that a table was
shared with an adjacent VMA which is not being unmapped.

There are two basic things that can happen as the result of
a bounds exception (#BR):
1. We allocate a new bounds table
2. We pass up a bounds exception to userspace.
This patch adds a trace point for the case where we are
passing the exception up to userspace with a signal.
We are also explicit that we're printing out the inverse of
the 'upper' that we encounter. If you want to filter, for
instance, you need to ~ the value first. The reason we do
this is because of how 'upper' is stored in the bounds table.
If a pointer's range is:
0x1000 -> 0x2000
it is stored in the bounds table as (32-bits here for brevity):
lower: 0x00001000
upper: 0xffffdfff
That is so that an all 0's entry:
lower: 0x00000000
upper: 0x00000000
corresponds to the "init" bounds which store a *range* of:
0x00000000 -> 0xffffffff
That is, by far, the common case, and that lets us use the
zero page, or deduplicate the memory, etc... The 'upper'
stored in the table is gibberish to print by itself, so we
print ~upper to get the *actual*, logical, human-readable
value printed out.

This is the first in a series of MPX tracing patches.
I've found these extremely useful in the process of
debugging applications and the kernel code itself.
This exception hooks in to the bounds (#BR) exception
very early and allows capturing the key registers which
would influence how the exception is handled.
Note that bndcfgu/bndstatus are technically still
64-bit registers even in 32-bit mode.

MPX has the _potential_ to cause some issues. Say part of your
init system tried to protect one of its components from buffer
overflows with MPX. If there were a false positive, it's
possible that MPX could keep a system from booting.
MPX could also potentially cause performance issues since it is
present in hot paths like the unmap path.
Allow it to be disabled at boot time.

The comment and code here are confusing. We do not currently
allocate the bounds directory in the kernel.

MPX_BNDCFG_ADDR_MASK is defined two times, so this patch removes

The MPX code can only work on the current task. You can not,
for instance, enable MPX management in another process or
thread. You can also not handle a fault for another process or
thread.
Despite this, we pass a task_struct around prolifically. This
patch removes all of the task struct passing for code paths
where the code can not deal with another task (which turns out
to be all of them).
This has no functional changes. It's just a cleanup.

The MPX registers (bndcsr/bndcfgu/bndstatus) are not directly
accessible via normal instructions. They essentially act as
if they were floating point registers and are saved/restored
along with those registers.
There are two main paths in the MPX code where we care about
the contents of these registers:
1. #BR (bounds) faults
2. the prctl() code where we are setting MPX up
Both of those paths _might_ be called without the FPU having
been used. That means that 'tsk->thread.fpu.state' might
never be allocated.
Also, fpu_save_init() is not preempt-safe. It was a bug to
call it without disabling preemption. The new
get_xsave_addr() calls unlazy_fpu() instead and properly
disables preemption.

The MPX code appears is calling a low-level FPU function
(copy_fpregs_to_fpstate()). This function is not able to
be called in all contexts, although it is safe to call
directly in some cases.
Although probably correct, the current code is ugly and
potentially error-prone. So, add a wrapper that calls
the (slightly) higher-level fpu__save() (which is preempt-
safe) and also ensures that we even *have* an FPU context
(in the case that this was called when in lazy FPU mode).
Ingo had this to say about the details about when we need
preemption disabled:
> it's indeed generally unsafe to access/copy FPU registers with preemption enabled,
> for two reasons:
>
> - on older systems that use FSAVE the instruction destroys FPU register
> contents, which has to be handled carefully
>
> - even on newer systems if we copy to FPU registers (which this code doesn't)
> then we don't want a context switch to occur in the middle of it, because a
> context switch will write to the fpstate, potentially overwriting our new data
> with old FPU state.
>
> But it's safe to access FPU registers with preemption enabled in a couple of
> special cases:
>
> - potentially destructively saving FPU registers: the signal handling code does
> this in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe(), because it can rely on the signal restore
> side to restore the original FPU state.
>
> - reading FPU registers on modern systems: we don't do this anywhere at the
> moment, mostly to keep symmetry with older systems where FSAVE is
> destructive.
>
> - initializing FPU registers on modern systems: fpu__clear() does this. Here
> it's safe because we don't copy from the fpstate.
>
> - directly writing FPU registers from user-space memory (!). We do this in
> fpu__restore_sig(), and it's safe because neither context switches nor
> irq-handler FPU use can corrupt the source context of the copy (which is
> user-space memory).
>
> Note that the MPX code's current use of copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() was safe I think,
> because:
>
> - MPX is predicated on eagerfpu, so the destructive F[N]SAVE instruction won't be
