commit 1f57f68c4dd101e5e8ffc9ffa6428f45bcdd776a upstream.

s390 selects GENERIC_LOCKBREAK if PREEMPT is enabled. Reason is a historic
18 years old commit [1] which fixed a compile error for PREEMPT enabled
kernels. Back than only PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels were
considered to be important for s390. PREEMPT should "just work".

However, since recently PREEMPT is always enabled [2], which also causes
GENERIC_LOCKBREAK to be always enabled. For some workloads this leads to
massive performance degradation; e.g. a simple kernel compile on machines
with many CPUs may take up to four times longer.

To fix this just remove the GENERIC_LOCKBREAK from s390's Kconfig, since
the compile error from 18 years ago does not exist anymore.

[1] commit b6b40c532a36 ("[S390] Define GENERIC_LOCKBREAK.")
[2] commit 7dadeaa6e851 ("sched: Further restrict the preemption modes")

[ Upstream commit 3daad7f60aa92d0307fa2b2edd38c886a09902f2 ]

When CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE is disabled, the s390 __BUG_ENTRY() macro
omits the format string pointer, so the generated __bug_table entry no
longer matches struct bug_entry.

With HAVE_ARCH_BUG_FORMAT enabled, the generic BUG infrastructure reads
bug_entry::format via bug_get_format(). If the format word is missing,
subsequent fields are read from the wrong offset, which may:
- Misinterpret flags (BUG vs WARN classification errors)
- Fault when dereferencing a misread format pointer

The root cause is that __BUG_ENTRY() delegates format word emission to
__BUG_ENTRY_VERBOSE(), which is conditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE.

Fix this by moving the format field emission directly into __BUG_ENTRY()
so it is always emitted unconditionally. Remove the format parameter from
__BUG_ENTRY_VERBOSE() and keep only file/line emission conditional on
CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE.

<title>s390/pai: Fix missing PAI counter increments under heavy load</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b972d9b0f8c1625e89eff6cb857a7533d753ba2f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 99269799bf2448aebccee164df56c22a7b85b02c upstream.

Machines with a larger number of CPUs and under heavy load sometimes
loose PAI counter increments during recording using events
-e CRYPTO_ÂLL or -e NNPA_ALL. Counting is not affected.
This happens when several PAI crypto counters are incremented during
the same cryptographic operation.

During schedule out the functions

paiXXX_sched_task() (with XXX either crypt or ext)
+--&gt; pai_have_samples()
   +--&gt; pai_have_sample()
	+--&gt; pai_copy()
	+--&gt; pai_push_sample()

are called to read out PAI counter values.
In pai_copy() the current values of PAI counters are read from the
PMU memory mapped page and compared to the values read during last
schedule out operation, which have been saved in a backup page
named PAI_SAVE_AREA(event). For each PAI counter a delta is calculated
and when the delta is positive, that PAI counter was incremented by
hardware. This positve delta is reported as raw data record attached
to a sample.
After all deltas have been calculated, the new PAI counter values
are saved in the backup page PAI_SAVE_AREA(event). However this is
done in pai_push_sample(), leaving a small window for missing hardware
triggered updates. Here is one scenario:

  PAI counter idx:   0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7  ....  N
                   +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+    +---+
  PAI counter page:|   |   | X |   |   |   |   |   |....| Y |
                   +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+    +---+

In pai_copy() each PAI counter value is read and compared
to its old value. This is done in a loop. When PAI counter indexed
N is read, the hardware might increment PAI counter indexed 2 again,
updating its value from X to X+1.
Later pai_push_sample() simply mem-copies the complete PAI counter
page to a backup page and the increment of X+1 is lost, because the
backup page now contains the new value.

Read each PAI counter and save this value in the backup page when
there is a positive delta. This omits any time window between read
and store. This also reduced the work load as only modified PAI
counters are saved.

<title>s390/pai: Disable duplicate read of kernel PAI counter value</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8d176ace35089807b39eb41678f92bc094d7a709</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3fe7ecab1a0856aafe1026a35af1621a5c18d53f upstream.

The PAI crypto counter design allows for user space and kernel space
PAI counter increment recording. This is achieved by splitting the
recording page in half. The upper part of the 4KB page records user
space increments of PAI crypto counter and the lower half records
kernel space increments. The page itself looks like:

 lowcore ptr ---&gt; ++++++++++++++++++++++++
                  |user space area       |
                  +----------------------+
                  |kernel space area     |
                  ++++++++++++++++++++++++

User space and kernel space entries are handled via a kernel_offset
value when wrting. For PAI crypto counters this offset is 2048 or
half of a page size.

For PAI NNPA counter design this distinction was not needed. There is
no user and kernel space part for the page pointed to by lowcore.
The set up is:

 lowcore ptr ---&gt; ++++++++++++++++++++++++
                  |user + kernel space   |
                  |area                  |
                  |                      |
                  ++++++++++++++++++++++++

There is always only one counter value recorded and saved.

Depending on number of CPUs and machine load, the number of PAI NNPA
counter increment differs between counting (perf stat) and recording
(perf record). The number reported by sampling was double the number
shown by counting.

This was caused by a double read of the PAI NNPA values in function
pai_copy(). The first part of that function reads the kernel space part.
The offset into the kernel page part must be larger than zero.
The second part of that function reads the user space part, which
begins of offset zero. This works fine for PAI crypto counters.

It fails for PAI NNPA counters because the PMU device driver does
not support that feature and has a kernel_offset value of 0x0.
Executing both user and kernel space read out might end up reading
user space value twice.
For the PAI NNPA PMU prohibit the kernel space part read out.

commit a494d3c8d5392bcdff83c2a593df0c160ff9f322 upstream.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.

To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

commit 16d990a15491cf76cd6eef0846e1b4100e63261a upstream.

kvm_s390_pci_aif_enable(), kvm_s390_pci_aif_disable(), and
aen_host_forward() index the GAIT by manually multiplying the index
with sizeof(struct zpci_gaite).

Since aift-&gt;gait is already a struct zpci_gaite pointer, this
double-scales the offset, accessing element aisb*16 instead of aisb.

This causes out-of-bounds accesses when aisb &gt;= 32 (with
ZPCI_NR_DEVICES=512)

Fix by removing the erroneous sizeof multiplication.

In case of a Secure-Storage-Access exception the effective aka virtual
address which caused the exception is contained within the TEID.

do_secure_storage_access() incorrectly uses phys_to_folio() instead of
virt_to_folio() to translate the virtual address to the corresponding

debug_get_user_string() duplicates the userspace buffer with
memdup_user_nul() and then unconditionally looks at buffer[user_len - 1]

A zero-length write reaches this helper unchanged, so the newline trim
reads before the start of the allocated buffer.

Reject empty writes before accessing the last input byte.
