<title>x86/fpu: Fix i486 + no387 boot crash by only saving FPU registers on context switch if there is an FPU</title>

<id>urn:sha1:afc1e5e54138cd80a228dee0f2e0fe276137c291</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2224d616528194b02424c91c2ee254b3d29942c3 upstream.

Booting an i486 with "no387 nofxsr" ends with with the following crash:

   math_emulate: 0060:c101987d
   Kernel panic - not syncing: Math emulation needed in kernel

on the first context switch in user land.

The reason is that copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() tries FNSAVE which does not work
as the FPU is turned off.

This bug was introduced in:

  f1c8cd0176078 ("x86/fpu: Change fpu-&gt;fpregs_active users to fpu-&gt;fpstate_active")

Add a check for X86_FEATURE_FPU before trying to save FPU registers (we
have such a check in switch_fpu_finish() already).

<content type='text'>
commit 485734f3fc77c1eb77ffe138c027b9a4bf0178f3 upstream.

We already build the swiotlb code for 32-bit kernels with PAE support,
but the code to actually use swiotlb has only been enabled for 64-bit
kernels for an unknown reason.

Before Linux v4.18 we paper over this fact because the networking code,
the SCSI layer and some random block drivers implemented their own
bounce buffering scheme.

[ mingo: Changelog fixes. ]

Fixes: 21e07dba9fb1 ("scsi: reduce use of block bounce buffers")
Fixes: ab74cfebafa3 ("net: remove the PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS check in illegal_highdma")

commit 53c13ba8ed39e89f21a0b98f4c8a241bb44e483d upstream.

Clang warns that the declaration of jiffies in include/linux/jiffies.h
doesn't match the definition in arch/x86/time/kernel.c:

arch/x86/kernel/time.c:29:42: warning: section does not match previous declaration [-Wsection]

                                                       ^
1 warning generated.

The declaration was changed in commit 7c30f352c852 ("jiffies.h: declare
jiffies and jiffies_64 with ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp") but wasn't
updated here. Make them match so Clang no longer warns.

commit b59167ac7bafd804c91e49ad53c6d33a7394d4c8 upstream.

Eric reported that a sequence count loop using this_cpu_read() got
optimized out. This is wrong, this_cpu_read() must imply READ_ONCE()
because the interface is IRQ-safe, therefore an interrupt can have
changed the per-cpu value.

<id>urn:sha1:d1c0e525c43091fcbb64396ee9b8846cf7b4a070</id>
<content type='text'>
commit cc55f7537db6af371e9c1c6a71161ee40f918824 upstream.

On 32bit systems, nosave_regions(non RAM areas) located between
max_low_pfn and max_pfn are not excluded from hibernation snapshot
currently, which may result in a machine check exception when
trying to access these unsafe regions during hibernation:

[  612.800453] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
[  612.805786] mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 5 Bank 6: fe00000000801136

[  612.858978] Kernel Offset: 0x18000000 from 0xc1000000 (relocation range: 0xc0000000-0xf7ffdfff)

This is because on 32bit systems, pages above max_low_pfn are regarded
as high memeory, and accessing unsafe pages might cause expected MCE.
On the problematic 32bit system, there are reserved memory above low
memory, which triggered the MCE:

Fix this problem by changing pfn limit from max_low_pfn to max_pfn.
This fix does not impact 64bit system because on 64bit max_low_pfn
is the same as max_pfn.

commit 4907c68abd3f60f650f98d5a69d4ec77c0bde44f upstream.

Looking at the asm for native_sched_clock() I noticed we don't inline
enough. Mostly caused by sharing code with cyc2ns_read_begin(), which
we didn't used to do. So mark all that __force_inline to make it DTRT.

<title>sched/fair: Fix throttle_list starvation with low CFS quota</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dfc1a81b0143af0d7d87e3ad03f66d7f9598c470</id>
<content type='text'>
commit baa9be4ffb55876923dc9716abc0a448e510ba30 upstream.

With a very low cpu.cfs_quota_us setting, such as the minimum of 1000,
distribute_cfs_runtime may not empty the throttled_list before it runs
out of runtime to distribute. In that case, due to the change from
c06f04c7048 to put throttled entries at the head of the list, later entries
on the list will starve.  Essentially, the same X processes will get pulled
off the list, given CPU time and then, when expired, get put back on the
head of the list where distribute_cfs_runtime will give runtime to the same
set of processes leaving the rest.

Fix the issue by setting a bit in struct cfs_bandwidth when
distribute_cfs_runtime is running, so that the code in throttle_cfs_rq can
decide to put the throttled entry on the tail or the head of the list.  The
bit is set/cleared by the callers of distribute_cfs_runtime while they hold
cfs_bandwidth-&gt;lock.

This is easy to reproduce with a handful of CPU consumers. I use 'crash' on
the live system. In some cases you can simply look at the throttled list and
see the later entries are not changing:

  crash&gt; list cfs_rq.throttled_list -H 0xffff90b54f6ade40 -s cfs_rq.runtime_remaining | paste - - | awk '{print $1"  "$4}' | pr -t -n3

Sometimes it is easier to see by finding a process getting starved and looking
at the sched_info:

  crash&gt; task ffff8eb765994500 sched_info
  PID: 7800   TASK: ffff8eb765994500  CPU: 16  COMMAND: "cputest"
    sched_info = {
      pcount = 8,
      run_delay = 697094208,
      last_arrival = 240260125039,
      last_queued = 240260327513
    },
  crash&gt; task ffff8eb765994500 sched_info

    sched_info = {
      pcount = 8,
      run_delay = 697094208,
      last_arrival = 240260125039,

commit e84cb605e02f1b3d0aee8d7157419cd8aaa06038 upstream.

The calculated ideal rate can easily overflow an unsigned long, thus
making the best div selection buggy as soon as no ideal match is found
before the overflow occurs.
