commit f0295e047fcf52ccb42561fb7de6942f5201b676 upstream.

The current EEH callbacks can race with a driver unbind. This can
result in a backtraces like this:

The first part is an EEH (on boot), the second half is the resulting
crash. nvme probe starts the nvme_reset_work() worker thread. This
worker thread starts touching the device which see a device error
(EEH) and hence queues up an event in the powerpc EEH worker
thread. nvme_reset_work() then continues and runs
nvme_remove_dead_ctrl_work() which results in unbinding the driver
from the device and hence releases all resources. At the same time,
the EEH worker thread starts doing the EEH .error_detected() driver
callback, which no longer works since the resources have been freed.

This fixes the problem in the same way the generic PCIe AER code (in
drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aerdrv_core.c) does. It makes the EEH code hold
the device_lock() while performing the driver EEH callbacks and
associated code. This ensures either the callbacks are no longer
register, or if they are registered the driver will not be removed
from underneath us.

This has been broken forever. The EEH call backs were first introduced
in 2005 (in 77bd7415610) but it's not clear if a lock was needed back
then.

commit 84749d83758af6576552046b215b9b7f37f9556b upstream.

save_mc_for_early() was a no-op on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU but the
generic_load_microcode() path saves the microcode patches it has found into
the cache of patches which is used for late loading too. Regardless of
whether CPU hotplug is used or not.

Make the saving unconditional so that late loading can find the proper
patch.

<content type='text'>
commit da6fa7ef67f07108a1b0cb9fd9e7fcaabd39c051 upstream.

Recent AMD systems support using MWAIT for C1 state. However, MWAIT will
not allow deeper cstates than C1 on current systems.

play_dead() expects to use the deepest state available.  The deepest state
available on AMD systems is reached through SystemIO or HALT. If MWAIT is
available, it is preferred over the other methods, so the CPU never reaches
the deepest possible state.

Don't try to use MWAIT to play_dead() on AMD systems. Instead, use CPUIDLE
to enter the deepest state advertised by firmware. If CPUIDLE is not
available then fallback to HALT.

<title>x86/ipc: Fix x32 version of shmid64_ds and msqid64_ds</title>

<id>urn:sha1:41b0aa3c18d2db3b6597b48833f058698fd25d16</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 1a512c0882bd311c5b5561840fcfbe4c25b8f319 upstream.

A bugfix broke the x32 shmid64_ds and msqid64_ds data structure layout
(as seen from user space)  a few years ago: Originally, __BITS_PER_LONG
was defined as 64 on x32, so we did not have padding after the 64-bit
__kernel_time_t fields, After __BITS_PER_LONG got changed to 32,
applications would observe extra padding.

In other parts of the uapi headers we seem to have a mix of those
expecting either 32 or 64 on x32 applications, so we can't easily revert
the path that broke these two structures.

Instead, this patch decouples x32 from the other architectures and moves
it back into arch specific headers, partially reverting the even older
commit 73a2d096fdf2 ("x86: remove all now-duplicate header files").

It's not clear whether this ever made any difference, since at least
glibc carries its own (correct) copy of both of these header files,
so possibly no application has ever observed the definitions here.

Based on a suggestion from H.J. Lu, I tried out the tool from
https://github.com/hjl-tools/linux-header to find other such
bugs, which pointed out the same bug in statfs(), which also has
a separate (correct) copy in glibc.

commit 854e55ad289ef8888e7991f0ada85d5846f5afb9 upstream.

Starting with recent GCC 8 builds, objtool and perf fail to build with
the following error:

  ../str_error_r.c: In function ‘str_error_r’:
  ../str_error_r.c:25:3: error: passing argument 1 to restrict-qualified parameter aliases with argument 5 [-Werror=restrict]
     snprintf(buf, buflen, "INTERNAL ERROR: strerror_r(%d, %p, %zd)=%d", errnum, buf, buflen, err);

The code seems harmless, but there's probably no benefit in printing the
'buf' pointer in this situation anyway, so just remove it to make GCC
happy.

commit 75569c182e4f65cd8826a5853dc9cbca703cbd0e upstream.

Otherwise, the SQ may skip some of the register writes, or shader waves may
be allocated where we don't expect them, so that as a result we don't actually
reset all of the register SRAMs. This can lead to spurious ECC errors later on
if a shader uses an uninitialized register.

commit 682e6b4da5cbe8e9a53f979a58c2a9d7dc997175 upstream.

The OPAL RTC driver does not sleep in case it gets OPAL_BUSY or
OPAL_BUSY_EVENT from firmware, which causes large scheduling
latencies, up to 50 seconds have been observed here when RTC stops
responding (BMC reboot can do it).

Fix this by converting it to the standard form OPAL_BUSY loop that
sleeps.

commit c0f7f5b6c69107ca92909512533e70258ee19188 upstream.

gpstate_timer_handler() uses synchronous smp_call to set the pstate
on the requested core. This causes the below hard lockup:

  smp_call_function_single+0x110/0x180 (unreliable)
  smp_call_function_any+0x180/0x250

  LR = arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask+0x120/0x130
  arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask+0x4c/0x130
  smp_call_function_many+0x340/0x450

  mprotect_fixup+0x140/0x340
  SyS_mprotect+0x1b4/0x350
  system_call+0x58/0x6c

One way to avoid this is removing the smp-call. We can ensure that the
timer always runs on one of the policy-cpus. If the timer gets
migrated to a cpu outside the policy then re-queue it back on the
policy-&gt;cpus. This way we can get rid of the smp-call which was being
used to set the pstate on the policy-&gt;cpus.
