Pull ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"This holds a few fixes to the ftrace infrastructure as well as the
mixture of function graph tracing and kprobes.
When jprobes and function graph tracing is enabled at the same time it
will crash the system:
# modprobe jprobe_example
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
After the first fork (jprobe_example probes it), the system will
crash.
This is due to the way jprobes copies the stack frame and does not do
a normal function return. This messes up with the function graph
tracing accounting which hijacks the return address from the stack and
replaces it with a hook function. It saves the return addresses in a
separate stack to put back the correct return address when done. But
because the jprobe functions do not do a normal return, their stack
addresses are not put back until the function they probe is called,
which means that the probed function will get the return address of
the jprobe handler instead of its own.
The simple fix here was to disable function graph tracing while the
jprobe handler is being called.
While debugging this I found two minor bugs with the function graph
tracing.
The first was about the function graph tracer sharing its function
hash with the function tracer (they both get filtered by the same
input). The changing of the set_ftrace_filter would not sync the
function recording records after a change if the function tracer was
disabled but the function graph tracer was enabled. This was due to
the update only checking one of the ops instead of the shared ops to
see if they were enabled and should perform the sync. This caused the
ftrace accounting to break and a ftrace_bug() would be triggered,
disabling ftrace until a reboot.
The second was that the check to update records only checked one of
the filter hashes. It needs to test both the "filter" and "notrace"
hashes. The "filter" hash determines what functions to trace where as
the "notrace" hash determines what functions not to trace (trace all
but these). Both hashes need to be passed to the update code to find
out what change is being done during the update. This also broke the
ftrace record accounting and triggered a ftrace_bug().
This patch set also include two more fixes that were reported
separately from the kprobe issue.
One was that init_ftrace_syscalls() was called twice at boot up. This
is not a major bug, but that call performed a rather large kmalloc
(NR_syscalls * sizeof(*syscalls_metadata)). The second call made the
first one a memory leak, and wastes memory.
The other fix is a regression caused by an update in the v3.19 merge
window. The moving to enable events early, moved the enabling before
PID 1 was created. The syscall events require setting the
TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT for all tasks. But for_each_process_thread()
does not include the swapper task (PID 0), and ended up being a nop.
A suggested fix was to add the init_task() to have its flag set, but I
didn't really want to mess with PID 0 for this minor bug. Instead I
disable and re-enable events again at early_initcall() where it use to
be enabled. This also handles any other event that might have its own
reg function that could break at early boot up"

cycles:p and cycles:pp do not work on SLM since commit:
86a04461a99f ("perf/x86: Revamp PEBS event selection")
UOPS_RETIRED.ALL is not a PEBS capable event, so it should not be used
to count cycle number.
Actually SLM calls intel_pebs_aliases_core2() which uses INST_RETIRED.ANY_P
to count the number of cycles. It's a PEBS capable event. But inv and
cmask must be set to count cycles.
Considering SLM allows all events as PEBS with no flags, only
INST_RETIRED.ANY_P, inv=1, cmask=16 needs to handled specially.

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
sysfs_show() routine for the RAPL PMU.
The current code was wrongly relying on the EVENT_ATTR_STR()
macro which uses the events_sysfs_show() function in the x86
PMU code. That function itself was relying on the x86_pmu data
structure. Yet RAPL and the core PMU (x86_pmu) have nothing to
do with each other. They should therefore not interact with
each other.
The x86_pmu structure is initialized at boot time based on
the host CPU model. When the host CPU is not supported, the
x86_pmu remains uninitialized and some of the callbacks it
contains are NULL.
The false dependency with x86_pmu could potentially cause crashes
in case the x86_pmu is not initialized while the RAPL PMU is. This
may, for instance, be the case in virtualized environments.
This patch fixes the problem by using a private sysfs_show()
routine for exporting the RAPL PMU events.

If the function graph tracer traces a jprobe callback, the system will
crash. This can easily be demonstrated by compiling the jprobe
sample module that is in the kernel tree, loading it and running the
function graph tracer.
# modprobe jprobe_example.ko
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# ls
The first two commands end up in a nice crash after the first fork.
(do_fork has a jprobe attached to it, so "ls" just triggers that fork)
The problem is caused by the jprobe_return() that all jprobe callbacks
must end with. The way jprobes works is that the function a jprobe
is attached to has a breakpoint placed at the start of it (or it uses
ftrace if fentry is supported). The breakpoint handler (or ftrace callback)
will copy the stack frame and change the ip address to return to the
jprobe handler instead of the function. The jprobe handler must end
with jprobe_return() which swaps the stack and does an int3 (breakpoint).
This breakpoint handler will then put back the saved stack frame,
simulate the instruction at the beginning of the function it added
a breakpoint to, and then continue on.
For function tracing to work, it hijakes the return address from the
stack frame, and replaces it with a hook function that will trace
the end of the call. This hook function will restore the return
address of the function call.
If the function tracer traces the jprobe handler, the hook function
for that handler will not be called, and its saved return address
will be used for the next function. This will result in a kernel crash.
To solve this, pause function tracing before the jprobe handler is called
and unpause it before it returns back to the function it probed.
Some other updates:
Used a variable "saved_sp" to hold kcb->jprobe_saved_sp. This makes the
code look a bit cleaner and easier to understand (various tries to fix
this bug required this change).
Note, if fentry is being used, jprobes will change the ip address before
the function graph tracer runs and it will not be able to trace the
function that the jprobe is probing.

Using the native code here can't work properly, as the hypervisor would
normally have cleared the two reason bits by the time Dom0 gets to see
the NMI (if passed to it at all). There's a shared info field for this,
and there's an existing hook to use - just fit the two together. This
is particularly relevant so that NMIs intended to be handled by APEI /
GHES actually make it to the respective handler.
Note that the hook can (and should) be used irrespective of whether
being in Dom0, as accessing port 0x61 in a DomU would be even worse,
while the shared info field would just hold zero all the time. Note
further that hardware NMI handling for PVH doesn't currently work
anyway due to missing code in the hypervisor (but it is expected to
work the native rather than the PV way).

On x86_64, at least, task_pt_regs may be only partially initialized
in many contexts, so x86_64 should not use it without extra care
from interrupt context, let alone NMI context.
This will allow x86_64 to override the logic and will supply some
scratch space to use to make a cleaner copy of user regs.

The "by8" counter mode optimization is broken for 128 bit keys with
input data longer than 128 bytes. It uses the wrong key material for
en- and decryption.
The key registers xkey0, xkey4, xkey8 and xkey12 need to be preserved
in case we're handling more than 128 bytes of input data -- they won't
get reloaded after the initial load. They must therefore be (a) loaded
on the first iteration and (b) be preserved for the latter ones. The
implementation for 128 bit keys does not comply with (a) nor (b).
Fix this by bringing the implementation back to its original source
and correctly load the key registers and preserve their values by
*not* re-using the registers for other purposes.
Kudos to James for reporting the issue and providing a test case
showing the discrepancies.

discussion on that point is ongoing.
It also fixes a big performance issue in 3.18 and earlier in which
the lsl instructions in vclock_gettime got hoisted so far up the
function that they happened even when the function they were in was
never called. n 3.19, the performance issue seems to be gone due to
the whims of my compiler and some interaction with a branch that's
now gone.
I'll hopefully have a much bigger overhaul of the pvclock code
for 3.20, but it needs careful review."

The commit 34a1cd60d17f, "x86: vmx: move some vmx setting from

specific to vmx hardware setting into hardware_setup(), but some
msr writing should depend on our previous setting condition like
enable_apicv, enable_ept and so on.

In Linux 3.18 and below, GCC hoists the lsl instructions in the
pvclock code all the way to the beginning of __vdso_clock_gettime,
slowing the non-paravirt case significantly. For unknown reasons,
presumably related to the removal of a branch, the performance issue
is gone as of
e76b027e6408 x86,vdso: Use LSL unconditionally for vgetcpu
but I don't trust GCC enough to expect the problem to stay fixed.
There should be no correctness issue, because the __getcpu calls in
__vdso_vlock_gettime were never necessary in the first place.
Note to stable maintainers: In 3.18 and below, depending on
configuration, gcc 4.9.2 generates code like this:
9c3: 44 0f 03 e8 lsl %ax,%r13d
9c7: 45 89 eb mov %r13d,%r11d
9ca: 0f 03 d8 lsl %ax,%ebx
This patch won't apply as is to any released kernel, but I'll send a
trivial backported version if needed.

The old scheme can lead to failure in certain cases - the
problem is that after bumping step_size the next (non-final)
iteration is only guaranteed to make available a memory block
the size of what step_size was before. E.g. for a memory block
[0,3004600000) we'd have:
iter start end step amount
1 3004400000 30045fffff 2M 2M
2 3004000000 30043fffff 64M 4M
3 3000000000 3003ffffff 2G 64M
4 2000000000 2fffffffff 64G 64G
Yet to map 64G with 4k pages (as happens e.g. under PV Xen) we
need slightly over 128M, but the first three iterations made
only about 70M available.
The condition (new_mapped_ram_size > mapped_ram_size) for
bumping step_size is just not suitable. Instead we want to bump
it when we know we have enough memory available to cover a block
of the new step_size. And rather than making that condition more
complicated than needed, simply adjust step_size by the largest
possible factor we know we can cover at that point - which is
shifting it left by one less than the difference between page
table level shifts. (Interestingly the original STEP_SIZE_SHIFT
definition had a comment hinting at that having been the
intention, just that it should have been PUD_SHIFT-PMD_SHIFT-1
instead of (PUD_SHIFT-PMD_SHIFT)/2, and of course for non-PAE
32-bit we can't really use these two constants as they're equal
there.)
Furthermore the comment in get_new_step_size() didn't get
updated when the bottom-down mapping logic got added. Yet while
an overflow (flushing step_size to zero) of the shift doesn't
matter for the top-down method, it does for bottom-up because
round_up(x, 0) = 0, and an upper range boundary of zero can't
really work well.

Pull a VDSO fix from Andy Lutomirski:
"One vdso fix for a longstanding ASLR bug that's been in the news lately.
The vdso base address has always been randomized, and I don't think there's
anything particularly wrong with the range over which it's randomized,
but the implementation seems to have been buggy since the very beginning.
This fixes the implementation to remove a large bias that caused a small
fraction of possible vdso load addresess to be vastly more likely than
the rest of the possible addresses."
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

The theory behind vdso randomization is that it's mapped at a random
offset above the top of the stack. To avoid wasting a page of
memory for an extra page table, the vdso isn't supposed to extend
past the lowest PMD into which it can fit. Other than that, the
address should be a uniformly distributed address that meets all of
the alignment requirements.
The current algorithm is buggy: the vdso has about a 50% probability
of being at the very end of a PMD. The current algorithm also has a
decent chance of failing outright due to incorrect handling of the
case where the top of the stack is near the top of its PMD.
This fixes the implementation. The paxtest estimate of vdso
"randomisation" improves from 11 bits to 18 bits. (Disclaimer: I
don't know what the paxtest code is actually calculating.)
It's worth noting that this algorithm is inherently biased: the vdso
is more likely to end up near the end of its PMD than near the
beginning. Ideally we would either nix the PMD sharing requirement
or jointly randomize the vdso and the stack to reduce the bias.
In the mean time, this is a considerable improvement with basically
no risk of compatibility issues, since the allowed outputs of the
algorithm are unchanged.
As an easy test, doing this:
for i in `seq 10000`
do grep -P vdso /proc/self/maps |cut -d- -f1
done |sort |uniq -d
used to produce lots of output (1445 lines on my most recent run).
A tiny subset looks like this:
7fffdfffe000
7fffe01fe000
7fffe05fe000
7fffe07fe000
7fffe09fe000
7fffe0bfe000
7fffe0dfe000
Note the suspicious fe000 endings. With the fix, I get a much more
palatable 76 repeated addresses.

Pull ACCESS_ONCE cleanup preparation from Christian Borntraeger:
"kernel: Provide READ_ONCE and ASSIGN_ONCE
As discussed on LKML http://marc.info/?i=54611D86.4040306%40de.ibm.com
ACCESS_ONCE might fail with specific compilers for non-scalar
accesses.
Here is a set of patches to tackle that problem.
The first patch introduce READ_ONCE and ASSIGN_ONCE. If the data
structure is larger than the machine word size memcpy is used and a
warning is emitted. The next patches fix up several in-tree users of
ACCESS_ONCE on non-scalar types.
This does not yet contain a patch that forces ACCESS_ONCE to work only
on scalar types. This is targetted for the next merge window as Linux
next already contains new offenders regarding ACCESS_ONCE vs.
non-scalar types"

Pull x86 apic updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"After stopping the full x86/apic branch, I took some time to go
through the first block of patches again, which are mostly cleanups
and preparatory work for the irqdomain conversion and ioapic hotplug
support.
Unfortunaly one of the real problematic commits was right at the
beginning, so I rebased this portion of the pending patches without
the offenders.
It would be great to get this into 3.19. That makes reworking the
problematic parts simpler. The usual tip testing did not unearth any
issues and it is fully bisectible now.
I'm pretty confident that this wont affect the calmness of the xmas
season.
Changes:
- Split the convoluted io_apic.c code into domain specific parts
(vector, ioapic, msi, htirq)
- Introduce proper helper functions to retrieve irq specific data
instead of open coded dereferencing of pointers
- Preparatory work for ioapic hotplug and irqdomain conversion
- Removal of the non functional pci-ioapic driver
- Removal of unused irq entry stubs
- Make native_smp_prepare_cpus() preemtible to avoid GFP_ATOMIC
allocations for everything which is called from there.

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,

messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
management in user space.
Specifics:
- Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
driver (Fabio Estevam).
- Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
account (Aaron Lu).
- Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).
- Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
Bhargava).
- Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
Kumar).
- Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).
There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
rid of it.
- Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).
- Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).
- Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).
- Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).
- Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").
That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able

to be cooling properly. From Srinivas Pandruvada"

It turns out that there's a lurking ABI issue. GCC, when
compiling this in a 32-bit program:
struct user_desc desc = {
.entry_number = idx,
.base_addr = base,
.limit = 0xfffff,
.seg_32bit = 1,
.contents = 0, /* Data, grow-up */
.read_exec_only = 0,
.limit_in_pages = 1,
.seg_not_present = 0,
.useable = 0,
};
will leave .lm uninitialized. This means that anything in the
kernel that reads user_desc.lm for 32-bit tasks is unreliable.
Revert the .lm check in set_thread_area(). The value never did
anything in the first place.
