commit 7fb08eca45270d0ae86e1ad9d39c40b7a55d0190 upstream.
This replaces four copies in various stages of mm_fault_error() handling
with just a single one. It will also allow for more natural placement
of the unlocking after some further cleanup.

commit 33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7 upstream.
The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

commit 4e7c22d447bb6d7e37bfe39ff658486ae78e8d77 upstream.
The issue is that the stack for processes is not properly randomized on
64 bit architectures due to an integer overflow.
The affected function is randomize_stack_top() in file
"fs/binfmt_elf.c":
static unsigned long randomize_stack_top(unsigned long stack_top)
{
unsigned int random_variable = 0;
if ((current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE) &&
!(current->personality & ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE)) {
random_variable = get_random_int() & STACK_RND_MASK;
random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
}
return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable;
return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable;
}
Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int".
Since the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which
is 0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64):
random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the
"random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold
the (22+12) result.
These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack.
Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to
2^30 (One fourth of expected entropy).
This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved
in the operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and
stack_maxrandom_size().
The successful fix can be tested with:
$ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done
7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
...
Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff,
rather than always being 7fff.

commit 3a13c4d761b4b979ba8767f42345fed3274991b0 upstream.
The x86 fault handler bails in the middle of error handling when the
task has a fatal signal pending. For a subsequent patch this is a
problem in OOM situations because it relies on pagefault_out_of_memory()
being called even when the task has been killed, to perform proper
per-task OOM state unwinding.
Shortcutting the fault like this is a rather minor optimization that
saves a few instructions in rare cases. Just remove it for
user-triggered faults.
Use the opportunity to split the fault retry handling from actual fault
errors and add locking documentation that reads suprisingly similar to
ARM's.

commit 759496ba6407c6994d6a5ce3a5e74937d7816208 upstream.
Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.
Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

commit d1cd1210834649ce1ca6bafe5ac25d2f40331343 upstream.
pte_pfn() returns a PFN of long (32 bits in 32-PAE), so "long <<
PAGE_SHIFT" will overflow for PFNs above 4GB.
Due to this issue, some Linux 32-PAE distros, running as guests on Hyper-V,
with 5GB memory assigned, can't load the netvsc driver successfully and
hence the synthetic network device can't work (we can use the kernel parameter
mem=3000M to work around the issue).
Cast pte_pfn() to phys_addr_t before shifting.

commit 3891a04aafd668686239349ea58f3314ea2af86b upstream.
The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only
restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. This
causes some 16-bit software to break, but it also leaks kernel state
to user space. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for
the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which
is not available in 64-bit mode.
In checkin:
b3b42ac2cbae x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels
we "solved" this by forbidding 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels, with
the logic that 16-bit support is crippled on 64-bit kernels anyway (no
V86 support), but it turns out that people are doing stuff like
running old Win16 binaries under Wine and expect it to work.
This works around this by creating percpu "ministacks", each of which
is mapped 2^16 times 64K apart. When we detect that the return SS is
on the LDT, we copy the IRET frame to the ministack and use the
relevant alias to return to userspace. The ministacks are mapped
readonly, so if IRET faults we promote #GP to #DF which is an IST
vector and thus has its own stack; we then do the fixup in the #DF
handler.
(Making #GP an IST exception would make the msr_safe functions unsafe
in NMI/MC context, and quite possibly have other effects.)
Special thanks to:
- Andy Lutomirski, for the suggestion of using very small stack slots
and copy (as opposed to map) the IRET frame there, and for the
suggestion to mark them readonly and let the fault promote to #DF.
- Konrad Wilk for paravirt fixup and testing.
- Borislav Petkov for testing help and useful comments.

commit c81c8a1eeede61e92a15103748c23d100880cc8a upstream.
In __ioremap_caller() (the guts of ioremap), we loop over the range of
pfns being remapped and checks each one individually with page_is_ram().
For large ioremaps, this can be very slow. For example, we have a
device with a 256 GiB PCI BAR, and ioremapping this BAR can take 20+
seconds -- sometimes long enough to trigger the soft lockup detector!
Internally, page_is_ram() calls walk_system_ram_range() on a single
page. Instead, we can make a single call to walk_system_ram_range()
from __ioremap_caller(), and do our further checks only for any RAM
pages that we find. For the common case of MMIO, this saves an enormous
amount of work, since the range being ioremapped doesn't intersect
system RAM at all.
With this change, ioremap on our 256 GiB BAR takes less than 1 second.

commit 4640c7ee9b8953237d05a61ea3ea93981d1bc961 upstream.
If CONFIG_X86_SMAP is disabled, smap_violation() tests for conditions
which are incorrect (as the AC flag doesn't matter), causing spurious
faults.
The dynamic disabling of SMAP (nosmap on the command line) is fine
because it disables X86_FEATURE_SMAP, therefore causing the
static_cpu_has() to return false.
Found by Fengguang Wu's test system.

It turns out that we missed increasing needed pages in BRK to
mapping initial 2M and [0,1M) when we switched to use the #PF
handler to set memory mappings:

Before that, we had the maping from [0,512M) in head_64.S, and we
can spare two pages [0-1M). After that change, we can not reuse
pages anymore.
When we have more than 512M ram, we need an extra page for pgd page
with [512G, 1024g).
Increase pages in BRK for page table to solve the boot crash.

commit 5ea80f76a56605a190a7ea16846c82aa63dbd0aa upstream.
This reverts commit df54d6fa54275ce59660453e29d1228c2b45a826.
The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.
In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774
So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

8d57470d x86, mm: setup page table in top-down
causes a kernel panic while setting mem=2G.
[mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k
[mem 0x7fe00000-0x7fffffff] page 1G
[mem 0x7c000000-0x7fdfffff] page 1G
[mem 0x00100000-0x001fffff] page 4k
[mem 0x00200000-0x7bffffff] page 2M
for last entry is not what we want, we should have
[mem 0x00200000-0x3fffffff] page 2M
[mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff] page 1G
Actually we merge the continuous ranges with same page size too early.
in this case, before merging we have
[mem 0x00200000-0x3fffffff] page 2M
[mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff] page 2M
after merging them, will get
[mem 0x00200000-0x7bffffff] page 2M
even we can use 1G page to map
[mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff]
that will cause problem, because we already map
[mem 0x7fe00000-0x7fffffff] page 1G
[mem 0x7c000000-0x7fdfffff] page 1G
with 1G page, aka [0x40000000-0x7fffffff] is mapped with 1G page already.
During phys_pud_init() for [0x40000000-0x7bffffff], it will not
reuse existing that pud page, and allocate new one then try to use
2M page to map it instead, as page_size_mask does not include
PG_LEVEL_1G. At end will have [7c000000-0x7fffffff] not mapped, loop
in phys_pmd_init stop mapping at 0x7bffffff.
That is right behavoir, it maps exact range with exact page size that
we ask, and we should explicitly call it to map [7c000000-0x7fffffff]
before or after mapping 0x40000000-0x7bffffff.
Anyway we need to make sure ranges' page_size_mask correct and consistent
after split_mem_range for each range.
Fix that by calling adjust_range_size_mask before merging range
with same page size.
-v2: update change log.
-v3: add more explanation why [7c000000-0x7fffffff] is not mapped, and
it causes panic.

pageattr-test calls srandom32() once every test iteration. But calling
srandom32() after late_initcalls is not meaningfull. Because the random
states for random32() is mixed by good random numbers in late_initcall
prandom_reseed().
So this removes the call to srandom32().

The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap,
specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages.
This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code
actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always
translates it to bytes first.
In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for
the vmemmap. For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages()
on sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind. But these
are not necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit
is too coarse.
Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse
code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

This patchset removes vm_struct list management after initializing
vmalloc. Adding and removing an entry to vmlist is linear time
complexity, so it is inefficient. If we maintain this list, overall
time complexity of adding and removing area to vmalloc space is O(N),
although we use rbtree for finding vacant place and it's time complexity
is just O(logN).
And vmlist and vmlist_lock is used many places of outside of vmalloc.c.
It is preferable that we hide this raw data structure and provide
well-defined function for supporting them, because it makes that they
cannot mistake when manipulating theses structure and it makes us easily
maintain vmalloc layer.
For kexec and makedumpfile, I export vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist.
This comes from Atsushi's recommendation. For more information, please
refer below link. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/6/184
This patch:
The purpose of iterating a vmlist is finding vm area with specific virtual
address. find_vm_area() is provided for this purpose and more efficient,
because it uses a rbtree. So change it.

This patch attempts to fix:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461
The symptom is a crash and messages like this:
chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000
*pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000
Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP
Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f520 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).
The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).
This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.
BTW, I disassembled and checked that:
if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)
generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is set page table updates made by
kernel_map_pages() are not made visible (via TLB flush)
immediately if lazy MMU is on. In environments that support lazy
MMU (e.g. Xen) this may lead to fatal page faults, for example,
when zap_pte_range() needs to allocate pages in
__tlb_remove_page() -> tlb_next_batch().

Commit:
a8aed3e0752b ("x86/mm/pageattr: Prevent PSE and GLOABL leftovers to confuse pmd/pte_present and pmd_huge")
introduced a valid fix but one location that didn't trigger the bug that
lead to finding those (small) problems, wasn't updated using the
right variable.
The wrong variable was also initialized for no good reason, that
may have been the source of the confusion. Remove the noop
initialization accordingly.
Commit a8aed3e0752b also erroneously removed one canon_pgprot pass meant
to clear pmd bitflags not supported in hardware by older CPUs, that
automatically gets corrected by this patch too by applying it to the right
variable in the new location.

In paravirtualized x86_64 kernels, vmalloc_fault may cause an oops
when lazy MMU updates are enabled, because set_pgd effects are being
deferred.
One instance of this problem is during process mm cleanup with memory
cgroups enabled. The chain of events is as follows:
- zap_pte_range enables lazy MMU updates
- zap_pte_range eventually calls mem_cgroup_charge_statistics,
which accesses the vmalloc'd mem_cgroup per-cpu stat area
- vmalloc_fault is triggered which tries to sync the corresponding
PGD entry with set_pgd, but the update is deferred
- vmalloc_fault oopses due to a mismatch in the PUD entries
The OOPs usually looks as so:

So basically we're generating the pte_t * from a struct page and
we're handing it down to the __split_large_page() internal version
which then goes and gets back struct page * from it because it
needs it.
Change the caller to hand down struct page * directly and the
callee can compute the pte_t itself.
Net save is one virt_to_page() call and simpler code. While at
it, make __split_large_page() static.

kernel_map_sync_memtype() is called from a variety of contexts. The
pat.c code that calls it seems to ensure that it is not called for
non-ram areas by checking via pat_pagerange_is_ram(). It is important
that it only be called on the actual identity map because there *IS*
no map to sync for highmem pages, or for memory holes.
The ioremap.c uses are not as careful as those from pat.c, and call
kernel_map_sync_memtype() on PCI space which is in the middle of the
kernel identity map _range_, but is not actually mapped.
This patch adds a check to kernel_map_sync_memtype() which probably
duplicates some of the checks already in pat.c. But, it is necessary
for the ioremap.c uses and shouldn't hurt other callers.
I have reproduced this bug and this patch fixes it for me and the
original bug reporter:

On exception exit, we restore the previous context tracking state based on
the regs of the interrupted frame. Iff that frame is in user mode as
stated by user_mode() helper, we restore the context tracking user mode.
However there is a tiny chunck of low level arch code after we pass through
user_enter() and until the CPU eventually resumes userspace.
If an exception happens in this tiny area, exception_enter() correctly
exits the context tracking user mode but exception_exit() won't restore
it because of the value returned by user_mode(regs).
As a result we may return to userspace with the wrong context tracking
state.
To fix this, change exception_enter() to return the context tracking state
prior to its call and pass this saved state to exception_exit(). This restores
the real context tracking state of the interrupted frame.
(May be this patch was suggested to me, I don't recall exactly. If so,
sorry for the missing credit).

Exceptions handling on context tracking should share common
treatment: on entry we exit user mode if the exception triggered
in that context. Then on exception exit we return to that previous
context.
Generalize this to avoid duplication across archs.

| x86, mm: setup page table in top-down
It turns out that we do not calculate the real_end properly:
We try to get 2M size with 4K alignment, and later will round down
to 2M, so we will get less then 2M for first mapping, in extreme
case could be only 4K only. In Henrik's system it has (1M-32K) as
last usable rage is [mem 0x7f9db000-0x7fef8fff].
The problem is exposed when EFI booting have several holes and it
will force mapping to use PTE instead as we only map usable areas.
To fix it, just make it be 2M aligned, so we can be guaranteed to be
able to use large pages to map it.

Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
commit e8d195525809 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
is ready")
It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things
1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
memset(&numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
can not be just removed. Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
and make fall back path working.
2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
b. for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
it should be moved before that....
c. it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
early before override from INITRD is settled.
3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
be routed via tip/x86/mm.
4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
anymore.
d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
not good.
If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
node.
We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
be fixed.
So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:
f7210e6c4ac7 ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")
01a178a94e8e ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from
SRAT")
27168d38fa20 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to
the end of node")
e8d195525809 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is
ready")
fb06bc8e5f42 ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map")
42f47e27e761 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority")
6981ec31146c ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep
movable limit for nodes")
34b71f1e04fc ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")
4d59a75125d5 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")
Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0. Also
need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

and pmd_huge
Without this patch any kernel code that reads kernel memory in
non present kernel pte/pmds (as set by pageattr.c) will crash.
With this kernel code:
static struct page *crash_page;
static unsigned long *crash_address;
[..]
crash_page = alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, 9);
crash_address = page_address(crash_page);
if (set_memory_np((unsigned long)crash_address, 1))
printk("set_memory_np failure\n");
[..]
The kernel will crash if inside the "crash tool" one would try
to read the memory at the not present address.
crash> p crash_address
crash_address = $8 = (long unsigned int *) 0xffff88023c000000
crash> rd 0xffff88023c000000
[ *lockup* ]
The lockup happens because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE
shares the same bit, and pageattr leaves _PAGE_GLOBAL set on a
kernel pte which is then mistaken as _PAGE_PROTNONE (so
pte_present returns true by mistake and the kernel fault then
gets confused and loops).
With THP the same can happen after we taught pmd_present to
check _PAGE_PROTNONE and _PAGE_PSE in commit
027ef6c87853b0a9df5317 ("mm: thp: fix pmd_present for
split_huge_page and PROT_NONE with THP"). THP has the same
problem with _PAGE_GLOBAL as the 4k pages, but it also has a
problem with _PAGE_PSE, which must be cleared too.
After the patch is applied copy_user correctly returns -EFAULT
and doesn't lockup anymore.

crash_address = $9 = (long unsigned int *) 0xffff88023c000000

the PRESENT bit"
I got a report for a minor regression introduced by commit
027ef6c87853b ("mm: thp: fix pmd_present for split_huge_page and
PROT_NONE with THP").
So the problem is, pageattr creates kernel pagetables (pte and
pmds) that breaks pte_present/pmd_present and the patch above
exposed this invariant breakage for pmd_present.
The same problem already existed for the pte and pte_present and
it was fixed by commit 660a293ea9be709 ("x86, mm: Make
spurious_fault check explicitly check the PRESENT bit") (if it
wasn't for that commit, it wouldn't even be a regression). That
fix avoids the pagefault to use pte_present. I could follow
through by stopping using pmd_present/pmd_huge too.
However I think it's more robust to fix pageattr and to clear
the PSE/GLOBAL bitflags too in addition to the present bitflag.
So the kernel page fault can keep using the regular
pte_present/pmd_present/pmd_huge.
The confusion arises because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE are
sharing the same bit, and in the pmd case we pretend _PAGE_PSE
to be set only in present pmds (to facilitate split_huge_page
final tlb flush).

If we aren't debugging per_cpu maps, the cpu's node is stored in
per_cpu variable numa_node. If `node' is NUMA_NO_NODE, it means
the caller wants to clear the cpu's node. So we should also
call set_cpu_numa_node() in this case.
