commit bdd65589593edd79b6a12ce86b3b7a7c6dae5208 upstream.

0day reported a possible circular locking dependency:

Chain exists of:
  &amp;irq_desc_lock_class --&gt; console_owner --&gt; &amp;port_lock_key

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&amp;port_lock_key);
                               lock(console_owner);
                               lock(&amp;port_lock_key);
  lock(&amp;irq_desc_lock_class);

The reason for this is a printk() in the i8259 interrupt chip driver
which is invoked with the irq descriptor lock held, which reverses the
lock operations vs. printk() from arbitrary contexts.

Switch the printk() to printk_deferred() to avoid that.

<title>x86/stacktrace: Fix reliable check for empty user task stacks</title>

[ Upstream commit 039a7a30ec102ec866d382a66f87f6f7654f8140 ]

If a user task's stack is empty, or if it only has user regs, ORC
reports it as a reliable empty stack.  But arch_stack_walk_reliable()
incorrectly treats it as unreliable.

That happens because the only success path for user tasks is inside the
loop, which only iterates on non-empty stacks.  Generally, a user task
must end in a user regs frame, but an empty stack is an exception to
that rule.

Thanks to commit 71c95825289f ("x86/unwind/orc: Fix error handling in
__unwind_start()"), unwind_start() now sets state-&gt;error appropriately.
So now for both ORC and FP unwinders, unwind_done() and !unwind_error()
always means the end of the stack was successfully reached.  So the
success path for kthreads is no longer needed -- it can also be used for
empty user tasks.

[ Upstream commit 372a8eaa05998cd45b3417d0e0ffd3a70978211a ]

The ORC unwinder fails to unwind newly forked tasks which haven't yet
run on the CPU.  It correctly reads the 'ret_from_fork' instruction
pointer from the stack, but it incorrectly interprets that value as a
call stack address rather than a "signal" one, so the address gets
incorrectly decremented in the call to orc_find(), resulting in bad ORC
data.

Fix it by forcing 'ret_from_fork' frames to be signal frames.

<content type='text'>
commit de2b41be8fcccb2f5b6c480d35df590476344201 upstream.

On x86-32 the idt_table with 256 entries needs only 2048 bytes. It is
page-aligned, but the end of the .bss..page_aligned section is not
guaranteed to be page-aligned.

As a result, objects from other .bss sections may end up on the same 4k
page as the idt_table, and will accidentially get mapped read-only during
boot, causing unexpected page-faults when the kernel writes to them.

This could be worked around by making the objects in the page aligned
sections page sized, but that's wrong.

Explicit sections which store only page aligned objects have an implicit
guarantee that the object is alone in the page in which it is placed. That
works for all objects except the last one. That's inconsistent.

Enforcing page sized objects for these sections would wreckage memory
sanitizers, because the object becomes artificially larger than it should
be and out of bound access becomes legit.

Align the end of the .bss..page_aligned and .data..page_aligned section on
page-size so all objects places in these sections are guaranteed to have
their own page.

[ Upstream commit e3beca48a45b5e0e6e6a4e0124276b8248dcc9bb ]

Quite some non OF/ACPI users of irqdomains allocate firmware nodes of type
IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED or IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED_ID and free them right after
creating the irqdomain. The only purpose of these FW nodes is to convey
name information. When this was introduced the core code did not store the
pointer to the node in the irqdomain. A recent change stored the firmware
node pointer in irqdomain for other reasons and missed to notice that the
usage sites which do the alloc_fwnode/create_domain/free_fwnode sequence
are broken by this. Storing a dangling pointer is dangerous itself, but in
case that the domain is destroyed later on this leads to a double free.

Remove the freeing of the firmware node after creating the irqdomain from
all affected call sites to cure this.

<title>genirq/affinity: Handle affinity setting on inactive interrupts correctly</title>

<content type='text'>
commit baedb87d1b53532f81b4bd0387f83b05d4f7eb9a upstream.

Setting interrupt affinity on inactive interrupts is inconsistent when
hierarchical irq domains are enabled. The core code should just store the
affinity and not call into the irq chip driver for inactive interrupts
because the chip drivers may not be in a state to handle such requests.

X86 has a hacky workaround for that but all other irq chips have not which
causes problems e.g. on GIC V3 ITS.

Instead of adding more ugly hacks all over the place, solve the problem in
the core code. If the affinity is set on an inactive interrupt then:

    - Store it in the irq descriptors affinity mask
    - Update the effective affinity to reflect that so user space has
      a consistent view
    - Don't call into the irq chip driver

This is the core equivalent of the X86 workaround and works correctly
because the affinity setting is established in the irq chip when the
interrupt is activated later on.

Note, that this is only effective when hierarchical irq domains are enabled
by the architecture. Doing it unconditionally would break legacy irq chip
implementations.

For hierarchial irq domains this works correctly as none of the drivers can
have a dependency on affinity setting in inactive state by design.

Remove the X86 workaround as it is not longer required.

commit 5714ee50bb4375bd586858ad800b1d9772847452 upstream.

This fixes a regression encountered while running the
gdb.base/corefile.exp test in GDB's test suite.

In my testing, the typo prevented the sw_reserved field of struct
fxregs_state from being output to the kernel XSAVES area.  Thus the
correct mask corresponding to XCR0 was not present in the core file for
GDB to interrogate, resulting in the following behavior:

   [kev@f32-1 gdb]$ ./gdb -q testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/corefile testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/corefile.core
   Reading symbols from testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/corefile...
   [New LWP 232880]

   warning: Unexpected size of section `.reg-xstate/232880' in core file.

With the typo fixed, the test works again as expected.

on the CPU core just before kernel call. This could affect calculation
results if rounding mode was changed, or a crash if a FPU/SIMD exception
was unmasked.

Restore MXCSR to the kernel's default value.

commit 2c18bd525c47f882f033b0a813ecd09c93e1ecdf upstream.

Memory bandwidth is calculated reading the monitoring counter
at two intervals and calculating the delta. It is the software’s
responsibility to read the count often enough to avoid having
the count roll over _twice_ between reads.

The current code hardcodes the bandwidth monitoring counter's width
to 24 bits for AMD. This is due to default base counter width which
is 24. Currently, AMD does not implement the CPUID 0xF.[ECX=1]:EAX
to adjust the counter width. But, the AMD hardware supports much
wider bandwidth counter with the default width of 44 bits.

Kernel reads these monitoring counters every 1 second and adjusts the
counter value for overflow. With 24 bits and scale value of 64 for AMD,
it can only measure up to 1GB/s without overflowing. For the rates
above 1GB/s this will fail to measure the bandwidth.

Fix the issue setting the default width to 44 bits by adjusting the
offset.

AMD future products will implement CPUID 0xF.[ECX=1]:EAX.

The X86_CR4_FSGSBASE bit of CR4 should not change after boot[1]. Older
kernels should enforce this bit to zero, and newer kernels need to
enforce it depending on boot-time configuration (e.g. "nofsgsbase").
To support a pinned bit being either 1 or 0, use an explicit mask in
combination with the expected pinned bit values.
