git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile
Pull arch/tile update from Chris Metcalf:
"This one-line bug fix unbreaks glibc robust mutexes (among other
things no doubt), from code merged in during the 3.5 merge window but
which we had been running internally at Tilera for almost a year."
* 'stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
tile: fix bug in get_user() for 4-byte values
|
|
The definition of 32-bit values in the 64-bit tilegx architecture is that
they should be sign-extended regardless of whether they are considered
signed or unsigned by the compiler. Accordingly, we need to use an
"ld4s" rather than "ld4u" to load and sign-extend for get_user().
This fixes glibc bug 14238 (see http://sourceware.org/bugzilla),
introduced during the 3.5 merge window.

Pull five Xen bug-fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
- When booting as PVHVM we would try to use PV console - but would not validate
the parameters causing us to crash during restore b/c we re-use the wrong event
channel.
- When booting on machines with SR-IOV PCI bridge we didn't check for the bridge
and tried to use it.
- Under AMD machines would advertise the APERFMPERF resulting in needless amount
of MSRs from the guest.
- A global value (xen_released_pages) was not subtracted at bootup when pages
were added back in. This resulted in the balloon worker having the wrong
account of how many pages were truly released.
- Fix dead-lock when xen-blkfront is run in the same domain as xen-blkback.

At present, hard_irq_disable() does nothing on powerpc because of
this code in include/linux/interrupt.h:
#ifndef hard_irq_disable
#define hard_irq_disable() do { } while(0)
#endif
So we need to make our hard_irq_disable be a macro. It was previously
a macro until commit 7230c56441 ("powerpc: Rework lazy-interrupt
handling") changed it to a static inline function.

When the frontend and the backend reside on the same domain, even if we
add pages to the m2p_override, these pages will never be returned by
mfn_to_pfn because the check "get_phys_to_machine(pfn) != mfn" will
always fail, so the pfn of the frontend will be returned instead
(resulting in a deadlock because the frontend pages are already locked).

[<ffffffff81a18d69>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
The explanation is in the comment within the code:
We need to do this because the pages shared by the frontend
(xen-blkfront) can be already locked (lock_page, called by
do_read_cache_page); when the userspace backend tries to use them
with direct_IO, mfn_to_pfn returns the pfn of the frontend, so
do_blockdev_direct_IO is going to try to lock the same pages
again resulting in a deadlock.
A simplified call graph looks like this:
pygrub QEMU
-----------------------------------------------
do_read_cache_page io_submit
| |
lock_page ext3_direct_IO
|
bio_add_page
|
lock_page
Internally the xen-blkback uses m2p_add_override to swizzle (temporarily)
a 'struct page' to have a different MFN (so that it can point to another
guest). It also can easily find out whether another pfn corresponding
to the mfn exists in the m2p, and can set the FOREIGN bit
in the p2m, making sure that mfn_to_pfn returns the pfn of the backend.
This allows the backend to perform direct_IO on these pages, but as a
side effect prevents the frontend from using get_user_pages_fast on
them while they are being shared with the backend.

I noticed that the LBR fixups were not working anymore
on programs where they used to. I tracked this down to
a recent change to copy_from_user_nmi():
db0dc75d640 ("perf/x86: Check user address explicitly in copy_from_user_nmi()")
This commit added a call to __range_not_ok() to the
copy_from_user_nmi() routine. The problem is that the logic
of the test must be reversed. __range_not_ok() returns 0 if the
range is VALID. We want to return early from copy_from_user_nmi()
if the range is NOT valid.

The warning below triggers on AMD MCM packages because physical package
IDs on the cores of a _physical_ socket are the same. I.e., this field
says which CPUs belong to the same physical package.
However, the same two CPUs belong to two different internal, i.e.
"logical" nodes in the same physical socket which is reflected in the
CPU-to-node map on x86 with NUMA.
Which makes this check wrong on the above topologies so circumvent it.

When building for non-MMU based classic 68k CPU types (like the 68328 for
example) you get a compilation error:
CC arch/m68k/kernel/time.o
arch/m68k/kernel/time.c:91:5: error: redefinition of ‘arch_gettimeoffset’
include/linux/time.h:145:19: note: previous definition of ‘arch_gettimeoffset’ was here
The arch_gettimeoffset() code is included when building for these CPU types,
but it shouldn't be. Those machine types do not have
CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET set.
The fix is simply to conditionally include the arch_gettimeoffset() code on
that same config setting that specifies its use or not.

It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of
section mismatch warnings:
VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-syms.lds
LD arch/x86/vdso/built-in.o
LD arch/x86/built-in.o
WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5af0): Section mismatch in
reference from the variable test_nmi_ipi_callback_na.10451 to
the function .init.text:test_nmi_ipi_callback() [...]
WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5b04): Section mismatch in
reference from the variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399 to the function
.init.text:nmi_unk_cb() The variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399
references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...]
Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler. The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.
To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.
Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't
have a clue what was going on.

This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.
According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.
This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.
The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.
I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.
But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

pre-allocation early page table space
Robin found this regression:
| I just tried to boot an 8TB system. It fails very early in boot with:
| Kernel panic - not syncing: Cannot find space for the kernel page tables
git bisect commit 722bc6b16771ed80871e1fd81c86d3627dda2ac8.
A git revert of that commit does boot past that point on the 8TB
configuration.
That commit will add up extra pages for all memory range even
above 4g.
Try to limit that extra page count adding to first entry only.

This reverts 68568add2c ("powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check
of decrementer expiration"). We do need to check whether we have reached
the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early
decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(). The effect of not having the sanity check is that
if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to
its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer
interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase
frequency). I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray
hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest.
This isn't quite a straight revert because of changes to the surrounding
code, but it restores the same algorithm as was previously used.

Some UEFI firmware will not load a .efi with a .reloc section
with a size of 0.
Therefore, we create a .efi image with 4 main areas and 3 sections.
1. PE/COFF file header
2. .setup section (covers all setup code following the first sector)
3. .reloc section (contains 1 dummy reloc entry, created in build.c)
4. .text section (covers the remaining kernel image)
To make room for the new .setup section data, the header
bugger_off_msg had to be shortened.
