Pull two sparc fixes from David Miller:
1) Fix boots with gcc-4.9 compiled sparc64 kernels.
2) Add missing __get_user_pages_fast() on sparc64 to fix hangs on
futexes used in transparent hugepage areas.
It's really idiotic to have a weak symbolled fallback that just
returns zero, and causes this kind of bug. There should be no
backup implementation and the link should fail if the architecture
fails to provide __get_user_pages_fast() and supports transparent
hugepages.
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc:
sparc64: Implement __get_user_pages_fast().
sparc64: Fix register corruption in top-most kernel stack frame during boot.
|

It is not sufficient to only implement get_user_pages_fast(), you
must also implement the atomic version __get_user_pages_fast()
otherwise you end up using the weak symbol fallback implementation
which simply returns zero.
This is dangerous, because it causes the futex code to loop forever
if transparent hugepages are supported (see get_futex_key()).

Meelis Roos reported that kernels built with gcc-4.9 do not boot, we
eventually narrowed this down to only impacting machines using
UltraSPARC-III and derivitive cpus.
The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned:

Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with
an older compiler fixes the boot.
Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by
gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering.
With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching
causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted. Perhaps
we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to
cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get
back from the TLB miss trap.
Let's plug this up by doing two things:
1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into
the firmware. Just use the kernel's stack.
2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()"
to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's
deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

This breaks the stack end corruption detection facility.
What that facility does it write a magic value to "end_of_stack()"
and checking to see if it gets overwritten.
"end_of_stack()" is "task_thread_info(p) + 1", which for sparc64 is
the beginning of the FPU register save area.
So once the user uses the FPU, the magic value is overwritten and the
debug checks trigger.
Fix this by making the size explicit.
Due to the size we use for the fpsaved[], gsr[], and xfsr[] arrays we
are limited to 7 levels of FPU state saves. So each FPU register set
is 256 bytes, allocate 256 * 7 for the fpregs area.

Every path that ends up at do_sparc64_fault() must install a valid
FAULT_CODE_* bitmask in the per-thread fault code byte.
Two paths leading to the label winfix_trampoline (which expects the
FAULT_CODE_* mask in register %g4) were not doing so:
1) For pre-hypervisor TLB protection violation traps, if we took
the 'winfix_trampoline' path we wouldn't have %g4 initialized
with the FAULT_CODE_* value yet. Resulting in using the
TLB_TAG_ACCESS register address value instead.
2) In the TSB miss path, when we notice that we are going to use a
hugepage mapping, but we haven't allocated the hugepage TSB yet, we
still have to take the window fixup case into consideration and
in that particular path we leave %g4 not setup properly.
Errors on this sort were largely invisible previously, but after
commit 4ccb9272892c33ef1c19a783cfa87103b30c2784 ("sparc64: sun4v TLB
error power off events") we now have a fault_code mask bit
(FAULT_CODE_BAD_RA) that triggers due to this bug.
FAULT_CODE_BAD_RA triggers because this bit is set in TLB_TAG_ACCESS
(see #1 above) and thus we get seemingly random bus errors triggered
for user processes.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

The AES loops in arch/sparc/crypto/aes_glue.c use a scheme where the
key material is preloaded into the FPU registers, and then we loop
over and over doing the crypt operation, reusing those pre-cooked key
registers.
There are intervening blkcipher*() calls between the crypt operation
calls. And those might perform memcpy() and thus also try to use the
FPU.
The sparc64 kernel FPU usage mechanism is designed to allow such
recursive uses, but with a catch.
There has to be a trap between the two FPU using threads of control.
The mechanism works by, when the FPU is already in use by the kernel,
allocating a slot for FPU saving at trap time. Then if, within the
trap handler, we try to use the FPU registers, the pre-trap FPU
register state is saved into the slot. Then at trap return time we
notice this and restore the pre-trap FPU state.
Over the long term there are various more involved ways we can make
this work, but for a quick fix let's take advantage of the fact that
the situation where this happens is very limited.
All sparc64 chips that support the crypto instructiosn also are using
the Niagara4 memcpy routine, and that routine only uses the FPU for
large copies where we can't get the source aligned properly to a
multiple of 8 bytes.
We look to see if the FPU is already in use in this context, and if so
we use the non-large copy path which only uses integer registers.
Furthermore, we also limit this special logic to when we are doing
kernel copy, rather than a user copy.

Inconsistently, the raw_* IRQ routines do not interact with and update
the irqflags tracing and lockdep state, whereas the raw_* spinlock
interfaces do.
This causes problems in p1275_cmd_direct() because we disable hardirqs
by hand using raw_local_irq_restore() and then do a raw_spin_lock()
which triggers a lockdep trace because the CPU's hw IRQ state doesn't
match IRQ tracing's internal software copy of that state.
The CPU's irqs are disabled, yet current->hardirqs_enabled is true.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.
6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.
7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.
11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric

swapper_low_pmd_dir and swapper_pud_dir are actually completely
useless and unnecessary.
We just need swapper_pg_dir[]. Naturally the other page table chunks
will be allocated on an as-needed basis. Since the kernel actually
accesses these tables in the PAGE_OFFSET view, there is not even a TLB
locality advantage of placing them in the kernel image.
Use the hard coded vmlinux.ld.S slot for swapper_pg_dir which is
naturally page aligned.
Increase MAX_BANKS to 1024 in order to handle heavily fragmented
virtual guests.
Even with this MAX_BANKS increase, the kernel is 20K+ smaller.

This patch attempts to do a few things. The highlights are: 1) enable
SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, 2) kills off !SPARSE_IRQ code 3) allocates
ivector_table at boot time and 4) default to cookie only VIRQ mechanism
for supported firmware. The first firmware with cookie only support for
me appears on T5. You can optionally force the HV firmware to not cookie
only mode which is the sysino support.
The sysino is a deprecated HV mechanism according to the most recent
SPARC Virtual Machine Specification. HV_GRP_INTR is what controls the
cookie/sysino firmware versioning.
The history of this interface is:
1) Major version 1.0 only supported sysino based interrupt interfaces.
2) Major version 2.0 added cookie based VIRQs, however due to the fact
that OSs were using the VIRQs without negoatiating major version
2.0 (Linux and Solaris are both guilty), the VIRQs calls were
allowed even with major version 1.0
To complicate things even further, the VIRQ interfaces were only
actually hooked up in the hypervisor for LDC interrupt sources.
VIRQ calls on other device types would result in HV_EINVAL errors.
So effectively, major version 2.0 is unusable.
3) Major version 3.0 was created to signal use of VIRQs and the fact
that the hypervisor has these calls hooked up for all interrupt
sources, not just those for LDC devices.
A new boot option is provided should cookie only HV support have issues.
hvirq - this is the version for HV_GRP_INTR. This is related to HV API
versioning. The code attempts major=3 first by default. The option can
be used to override this default.
I've tested with SPARSE_IRQ on T5-8, M7-4 and T4-X and Jalap?no.

In order to accomodate embedded per-cpu allocation with large numbers
of cpus and numa nodes, we have to use as much virtual address space
as possible for the vmalloc region. Otherwise we can get things like:
PERCPU: max_distance=0x380001c10000 too large for vmalloc space 0xff00000000
So, once we select a value for PAGE_OFFSET, derive the size of the
vmalloc region based upon that.

For sparse memory configurations, the vmemmap array behaves terribly
and it takes up an inordinate amount of space in the BSS section of
the kernel image unconditionally.

If max_phys_bits needs to be > 43 (f.e. for T4 chips), things like
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC stop working because the 3-level page tables only
can cover up to 43 bits.
Another problem is that when we increased MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS up to
47, several statically allocated tables became enormous.
Compounding this is that we will need to support up to 49 bits of
physical addressing for M7 chips.
The two tables in question are sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap and
kpte_linear_bitmap.
The first holds a bitmap, with 1 bit for each 4MB chunk of physical
memory, indicating whether that chunk actually exists in the machine
and is valid.
The second table is a set of 2-bit values which tell how large of a
mapping (4MB, 256MB, 2GB, 16GB, respectively) we can use at each 256MB
chunk of ram in the system.
These tables are huge and take up an enormous amount of the BSS
section of the sparc64 kernel image. Specifically, the
sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap is 4MB, and the kpte_linear_bitmap is 128K.
So let's solve the space wastage and the DEBUG_PAGEALLOC problem
at the same time, by using the kernel page tables (as designed) to
manage this information.
We have to keep using large mappings when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is disabled,
and we do this by encoding huge PMDs and PUDs.
On a T4-2 with 256GB of ram the kernel page table takes up 16K with
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC disabled and 256MB with it enabled. Furthermore, this
memory is dynamically allocated at run time rather than coded
statically into the kernel image.

vio_dring_avail() will allow use of every dring entry, but when the last
entry is allocated then dr->prod == dr->cons which is indistinguishable from
the ring empty condition. This causes the next allocation to reuse an entry.
When this happens in sunvdc, the server side vds driver begins nack'ing the
messages and ends up resetting the ldc channel. This problem does not effect
sunvnet since it checks for < 2.
The fix here is to just never allocate the very last dring slot so that full
and empty are not the same condition. The request start path was changed to
check for the ring being full a bit earlier, and to stop the blk_queue if
there is no space left. The blk_queue will be restarted once the ring is
only half full again. The number of ring entries was increased to 512 which
matches the sunvnet and Solaris vdc drivers, and greatly reduces the
frequency of hitting the ring full condition and the associated blk_queue
stop/starting. The checks in sunvent were adjusted to account for
vio_dring_avail() returning 1 less.

Interpret the media type from v1.1 protocol to support CDROM/DVD.
For v1.0 protocol, a disk's size continues to be calculated from the
geometry returned by the vdisk server. The geometry returned by the server
can be less than the actual number of sectors available in the backing
image/device due to the rounding in the division used to compute the
geometry in the vdisk server.
In v1.1 protocol a disk's actual size in sectors is returned during the
handshake. Use this size when v1.1 protocol is negotiated. Since this size
will always be larger than the former geometry computed size, disks created
under v1.0 will be forwards compatible to v1.1, but not vice versa.

- fix BPF_LD|ABS|IND from negative offsets:
make sure to sign extend lower 32 bits in 64-bit register
before calling C helpers from JITed code, otherwise 'int k'
argument of bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper() function
will be added as large unsigned integer, causing packet size
check to trigger and abort the program.
It's worth noting that JITed code for 'A = A op K' will affect
upper 32 bits differently depending whether K is simm13 or not.
Since small constants are sign extended, whereas large constants
are stored in temp register and zero extended.
That is ok and we don't have to pay a penalty of sign extension
for every sethi, since all classic BPF instructions have 32-bit
semantics and we only need to set correct upper bits when
transitioning from JITed code into C.
- though instructions 'A &= 0' and 'A *= 0' are odd, JIT compiler
should not optimize them out

fix several issues in sparc BPF JIT compiler.
ldx/stx related:
. classic BPF instructions that access mem[] slots were not setting
SEEN_MEM flag, so stack wasn't allocated. Fix that by advertising
correct flags
. LDX/STX instructions were missing SEEN_XREG, so register value
could have leaked to user space. Fix it.
. since stack for mem[] slots is allocated with 'sub %sp' instead
of 'save %sp', use %sp as base register instead of %fp.
. ldx mem[0] means first slot in classic BPF which should have
-4 offset instead of 0.
. sparc64 needs 2047 stack bias as per ABI to access stack
. emit_stmem() was using LD32I macro instead of ST32I
SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG* related:
. SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG_PRESENT must return 1 or 0 instead of '> 0' or 0

The "mem" boot option can result in many unexpected consequences. This patch
attempts to prevent boot hangs which have been experienced on T4-4 and T5-8.
Basically the boot loader allocates vmlinuz and initrd higher in available
OBP physical memory. For example, on a 2Tb T5-8 it isn't possible to boot
with mem=20G.
The patch utilizes memblock to avoid reserved regions and trim memory which
is only free. Other improvements are possible for a multi-node machine.
This is a snippet of the boot log with mem=20G on T5-8 with the patch applied:

We have seen an issue with guest boot into LDOM that causes early boot failures
because of no matching rules for node identitity of the memory. I analyzed this
on my T4 and concluded there might not be a solution. I saw the issue in
mainline too when booting into the control/primary domain - with guests
configured. Note, this could be a firmware bug on some older machines.
I'll provide a full explanation of the issues below. Should we not find a
matching BEST latency group for a real address (RA) then we will assume node 0.
On the T4-2 here with the information provided I can't see an alternative.
Technically the LDOM shown below should match the MBLOCK to the
favorable latency group. However other factors must be considered too. Were
the memory controllers configured "fine" grained interleave or "coarse"
grain interleaved - T4. Also should a "group" MD node be considered a NUMA
node?
There has to be at least one Machine Description (MD) "group" and hence one
NUMA node. The group can have one or more latency groups (lg) - more than one
memory controller. The current code chooses the smallest latency as the most
favorable per group. The latency and lg information is in MLGROUP below.
MBLOCK is the base and size of the RAs for the machine as fetched from OBP
/memory "available" property. My machine has one MBLOCK but more would be
possible - with holes?
For a T4-2 the following information has been gathered:
with LDOM guest
MEMBLOCK configuration:
memory size = 0x27f870000
memory.cnt = 0x3
memory[0x0] [0x00000020400000-0x0000029fc67fff], 0x27f868000 bytes

MBLOCK[0]: base[20000000] size[280000000] offset[0]
(note: "base" and "size" reported in "MBLOCK" encompass the "memory[X]" values)
(note: (RA + offset) & mask = val is the formula to detect a match for the
memory controller. should there be no match for find_node node, a return
value of -1 resulted for the node - BAD)
There is one group. It has these forward links
MLGROUP[1]: node[545] latency[1f7e8] match[200000000] mask[200000000]
MLGROUP[2]: node[54d] latency[2de60] match[0] mask[200000000]
NUMA NODE[0]: node[545] mask[200000000] val[200000000] (latency[1f7e8])
(note: "val" is the best lg's (smallest latency) "match")
no LDOM guest - bare metal

there are two groups

NUMA NODE[1]: node[176d] mask[200000000] val[200000000] (latency[1f7e8])
(note: for this two "group" bare metal machine, 1/2 memory is in group one's
lg and 1/2 memory is in group two's lg).
