This is based on a patch that Zhenzhong Duan had sent - which
was missing some of the remaining pieces. The kernel has the
logic to handle Xen-type-exceptions using the paravirt interface
in the assembler code (see PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME -
pv_irq_ops.adjust_exception_frame and and INTERRUPT_RETURN -
pv_cpu_ops.iret).
That means the nmi handler (and other exception handlers) use
the hypervisor iret.
The other changes that would be neccessary for this would
be to translate the NMI_VECTOR to one of the entries on the
ipi_vector and make xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself use different
events.
Fortunately for us commit 1db01b4903639fcfaec213701a494fe3fb2c490b
(xen: Clean up apic ipi interface) implemented this and we piggyback
on the cleanup such that the apic IPI interface will pass the right
vector value for NMI.
With this patch we can trigger NMIs within a PV guest (only tested
x86_64).
For this to work with normal PV guests (not initial domain)
we need the domain to be able to use the APIC ops - they are
already implemented to use the Xen event channels. For that
to be turned on in a PV domU we need to remove the masking
of X86_FEATURE_APIC.
Incidentally that means kgdb will also now work within
a PV guest without using the 'nokgdbroundup' workaround.
Note that the 32-bit version is different and this patch
does not enable that.

Pull arm fixes fixes from Russell King:
"This fixes a couple of problems with commit 48be69a026b2 ("ARM: move
signal handlers into a vdso-like page"), one of which was originally
discovered via my testing originally, but the fix for it was never
actually committed.
The other shows up on noMMU builds, and such platforms are extremely
rare and as such are not part of my nightly testing"

This shows one of the evilnesses of IS_ENABLED(). Get rid of it here
and replace it with #ifdef's - and as no noMMU platform can make use
of sigpage, depend on CONIFG_MMU not CONFIG_ARM_MPU.

Unfortunately, I never committed the fix to a nasty oops which can
occur as a result of that commit:
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at /home/olof/work/batch/include/linux/mm.h:414!
Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM

PC is at special_mapping_fault+0xa4/0xc4
LR is at __do_fault+0x68/0x48c
This doesn't show up unless you do quite a bit of testing; a simple
boot test does not do this, so all my nightly tests were passing fine.
The reason for this is that install_special_mapping() expects the
page array to stick around, and as this was only inserting one page
which was stored on the kernel stack, that's why this was blowing up.

If one process calls sys_reboot and that process then stops other
CPUs while those CPUs are within a spin_lock() region we can
potentially encounter a deadlock scenario like below.
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
spin_lock(my_lock)
smp_send_stop()
<send IPI> handle_IPI()
disable_preemption/irqs
while(1);
<PREEMPT>
spin_lock(my_lock) <--- Waits forever
We shouldn't attempt to run any other tasks after we send a stop
IPI to a CPU so disable preemption so that this task runs to
completion. We use local_irq_disable() here for cross-arch
consistency with x86.

Move the signal handlers into a VDSO page rather than keeping them in
the vectors page. This allows us to place them randomly within this
page, and also map the page at a random location within userspace
further protecting these code fragments from ROP attacks. The new
VDSO page is also poisoned in the same way as the vector page.

When an associativity level change is found for one thread, the
siblings threads need to be updated as well. This is done today
for PRRN in stage_topology_update() but is missing for VPHN in
update_cpu_associativity_changes_mask(). This patch will correctly
update all thread siblings during a topology change.
Without this patch a topology update can result in a CPU in
init_sched_groups_power() getting stuck indefinitely in a loop.
This loop is built in build_sched_groups(). As a result of the thread
moving to a node separate from its siblings the struct sched_group will
have its next pointer set to point to itself rather than the sched_group
struct of the next thread. This happens because we have a domain without
the SD_OVERLAP flag, which is correct, and a topology that doesn't conform
with reality (threads on the same core assigned to different numa nodes).
When this list is traversed by init_sched_groups_power() it will reach
the thread's sched_group structure and loop indefinitely; the cpu will
be stuck at this point.
The bug was exposed when VPHN was enabled in commit b7abef0 (v3.9).

Back in commit 89713ed "Add timer, performance monitor and machine check
counts to /proc/interrupts" we added a count of PMU interrupts to the
output of /proc/interrupts.
At the time we named them "CNT" to match x86.
However in commit 89ccf46 "Rename 'performance counter interrupt'", the
x86 guys renamed theirs from "CNT" to "PMI".
Arguably changing the name could break someone's script, but I think the
chance of that is minimal, and it's preferable to have a name that 1) is
somewhat meaningful, and 2) matches x86.

We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry,
because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even
wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is
contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the
iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt
input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching
for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.

The parisc architecture does not have a pte special bit. As a result,
special mappings are handled with the VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP flags.
VM_MIXEDMAP mappings may or may not have a "struct page" backing. When
pfn_valid() is false, there is no "struct page" backing. Otherwise, they
are treated as normal pages.
The FireGL driver uses the VM_MIXEDMAP without a backing "struct page".
This treatment caused a panic due to a TLB data miss in
update_mmu_cache. This appeared to be in the code generated for
page_address(). We were in fact using a very circular bit of code to
determine the physical address of the PFN in various cache routines.
This wasn't valid when there was no "struct page" backing. The needed
address can in fact be determined simply from the PFN itself without
using the "struct page".
The attached patch updates update_mmu_cache(), flush_cache_mm(),
flush_cache_range() and flush_cache_page() to check pfn_valid() and to
directly compute the PFN physical and virtual addresses.

is_smp() test
Commit 621a0147d5c921f4cc33636ccd0602ad5d7cbfbc ("ARM: 7757/1: mm:
don't flush icache in switch_mm with hardware broadcasting") breaks
the boot on OMAP2430SDP with omap2plus_defconfig. Tracked to an
undefined instruction abort from the CP15 read in
cache_ops_need_broadcast(). It turns out that gcc 4.5 reorders the
extended CP15 read above the is_smp() test. This breaks ARM1136 r0
cores, since they don't support several CP15 registers that later ARM
cores do. ARM1136JF-S TRM section 3.2.1 "Register allocation" has the
details.
So mark the extended CP15 read as clobbering memory, which prevents
the compiler from reordering it before the is_smp() test. Russell
states that the code generated from this approach is preferable to
marking the inline asm as volatile. Remove the existing condition
code clobber as it's obsolete, per Nico's post:

It wasn't until GCC 4.3 I believe that the __SIZEOF_*__ predefined macros
were added. The change below switches <uapi/asm/siginfo.h> to the
_MIPS_SZLONG macro so that compilation with e.g. GCC 4.1.2 succeeds.
This is a user API header so I think this is even more important, for
older userland support. The change adds an unsuccessful default too, to

In commit 33d7885b594e169256daef652e8d3527b2298e75
x86/mce: Update MCE severity condition check
We simplified the rules to recognise each classification of recoverable
machine check combining the instruction and data fetch rules into a
single entry based on clarifications in the June 2013 SDM that all
recoverable events would be reported on the unaffected processor with
MCG_STATUS.EIPV=0 and MCG_STATUS.RIPV=1. Unfortunately the simplified
rule has a couple of bugs. Fix them here.

So, there's a comment I put at the top of this, which people seem to
fail to read. So let's fix it for them instead.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"This is a largeish batch of fixes, mostly because I missed -rc2 due to
travel/vacation. So in number these are a bit more than ideal unless
you amortize them over two -rcs.
Quick breakdown:
- Defconfig updates
- Making multi_v7_defconfig useful on more hardware to encourage
single-image usage
- Davinci and nomadik updates due to new code merged this merge
window
- Fixes for UART on Samsung platforms, both PM and clock-related
- A handful of warning fixes from defconfig builds, including for
max8925 backlight and pxamci (both with appropriate acks)
- Exynos5440 fixes for LPAE configuration, PM
- ...plus a bunch of other smaller changes all over the place
I expect to switch to regressions-or-severe-bugs-only fixes from here
on out"

a.out support on ARM requires that argc, argv and envp are passed in
r0-r2 respectively, which requires hacking load_aout_binary to
prevent argc being clobbered by the return code. Whilst mainline kernels
do set the registers up in start_thread, the aout loader has never
carried the hack in mainline.
Initialising the registers in this way actually goes against the libc
expectations for ELF binaries, where argc, argv and envp are passed on
the stack, with r0 being used to hold a pointer to an exit function for
cleaning up after the dynamic linker if required. If the pointer is
NULL, then it is ignored. When execing an ELF binary, Linux currently
zeroes r0, then sets it to argc and then finally clobbers it with the
return value of the execve syscall, so we actually end up with:
r0 = 0
stack[0] = argc
r1 = stack[1] = argv
r2 = stack[2] = envp
libc treats r1 and r2 as undefined. The clobbering of r0 by sys_execve
works for user-spawned threads, but when executing an ELF binary from a
kernel thread (via call_usermodehelper), the execve is performed on the
ret_from_fork path, which restores r0 from the saved pt_regs, resulting
in argc being presented to the C library. This has horrible consequences
when the application exits, since we have an exit function registered
using argc, resulting in a jump to hyperspace.
This patch solves the problem by removing the partial a.out support from
arch/arm/ altogether.

As of commit b9d4d42ad9 (ARM: Remove __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW on
pre-ARMv6 CPUs), the mm switching on VIVT processors is done in the
finish_arch_post_lock_switch() function to avoid whole cache flushing
with interrupts disabled. The need for deferred mm switch is stored as a
thread flag (TIF_SWITCH_MM). However, with preemption enabled, we can
have another thread switch before finish_arch_post_lock_switch(). If the
new thread has the same mm as the previous 'next' thread, the scheduler
will not call switch_mm() and the TIF_SWITCH_MM flag won't be set for
the new thread.
This patch moves the switch pending flag to the mm_context_t structure
since this is specific to the mm rather than thread.
