      sunrpc: add a debugfs rpc_xprt directory with an info file in it · 388f0c77
      Jeff Layton authored 
      Add a new directory heirarchy under the debugfs sunrpc/ directory:

    sunrpc/
        rpc_xprt/
            <xprt id>/

Within that directory, we can put files that give info about the
xprts. We do have the (minor) problem that there is no succinct,
unique identifier for rpc_xprts. So we generate them synthetically
with a static atomic_t counter.

For now, this directory just holds an "info" file, but we may add
other files to it in the future.

      sunrpc: add debugfs file for displaying client rpc_task queue · b4b9d2cc
      Jeff Layton authored 
      It's possible to get a dump of the RPC task queue by writing a value to
/proc/sys/sunrpc/rpc_debug. If you write any value to that file, you get
a dump of the RPC client task list into the log buffer. This is a rather
inconvenient interface however, and makes it hard to get immediate info
about the task queue.

Add a new directory hierarchy under debugfs:

    sunrpc/
        rpc_clnt/
            <clientid>/

Within each clientid directory we create a new "tasks" file that will
dump info similar to what shows up in the log buffer, but with a few
small differences -- we avoid printing raw kernel addresses in favor of
symbolic names and the XID is also displayed.

      uprobes, x86: Fix _TIF_UPROBE vs _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME · 82975bc6
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      x86 call do_notify_resume on paranoid returns if TIF_UPROBE is set but
not on non-paranoid returns.  I suspect that this is a mistake and that
the code only works because int3 is paranoid.

Setting _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in the uprobe code was probably a workaround
for the x86 bug.  With that bug fixed, we can remove _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME
from the uprobes code.

      sched: Provide update_curr callbacks for stop/idle scheduling classes · 90e362f4
      Thomas Gleixner authored 
      Chris bisected a NULL pointer deference in task_sched_runtime() to
commit 6e998916 'sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime()
inconsistency'.

Chris observed crashes in atop or other /proc walking programs when he
started fork bombs on his machine.  He assumed that this is a new exit
race, but that does not make any sense when looking at that commit.

What's interesting is that, the commit provides update_curr callbacks
for all scheduling classes except stop_task and idle_task.

While nothing can ever hit that via the clock_nanosleep() and
clock_gettime() interfaces, which have been the target of the commit in
question, the author obviously forgot that there are other code paths
which invoke task_sched_runtime()

do_task_stat(()
 thread_group_cputime_adjusted()
   thread_group_cputime()
     task_cputime()
       task_sched_runtime()
        if (task_current(rq, p) && task_on_rq_queued(p)) {
          update_rq_clock(rq);
          up->sched_class->update_curr(rq);
        }

If the stats are read for a stomp machine task, aka 'migration/N' and
that task is current on its cpu, this will happily call the NULL pointer
of stop_task->update_curr.  Ooops.

Chris observation that this happens faster when he runs the fork bomb
makes sense as the fork bomb will kick migration threads more often so
the probability to hit the issue will increase.

Add the missing update_curr callbacks to the scheduler classes stop_task
and idle_task.  While idle tasks cannot be monitored via /proc we have
other means to hit the idle case.

      Merge branch 'x86-traps' (trap handling from Andy Lutomirski) · 00c89b2f
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Merge x86-64 iret fixes from Andy Lutomirski:
 "This addresses the following issues:

   - an unrecoverable double-fault triggerable with modify_ldt.
   - invalid stack usage in espfix64 failed IRET recovery from IST
     context.
   - invalid stack usage in non-espfix64 failed IRET recovery from IST
     context.

  It also makes a good but IMO scary change: non-espfix64 failed IRET
  will now report the correct error.  Hopefully nothing depended on the
  old incorrect behavior, but maybe Wine will get confused in some
  obscure corner case"

      x86_64, traps: Rework bad_iret · b645af2d
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      It's possible for iretq to userspace to fail.  This can happen because
of a bad CS, SS, or RIP.

Historically, we've handled it by fixing up an exception from iretq to
land at bad_iret, which pretends that the failed iret frame was really
the hardware part of #GP(0) from userspace.  To make this work, there's
an extra fixup to fudge the gs base into a usable state.

This is suboptimal because it loses the original exception.  It's also
buggy because there's no guarantee that we were on the kernel stack to
begin with.  For example, if the failing iret happened on return from an
NMI, then we'll end up executing general_protection on the NMI stack.
This is bad for several reasons, the most immediate of which is that
general_protection, as a non-paranoid idtentry, will try to deliver
signals and/or schedule from the wrong stack.

This patch throws out bad_iret entirely.  As a replacement, it augments
the existing swapgs fudge into a full-blown iret fixup, mostly written
in C.  It's should be clearer and more correct.

      x86_64, traps: Stop using IST for #SS · 6f442be2
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      On a 32-bit kernel, this has no effect, since there are no IST stacks.

On a 64-bit kernel, #SS can only happen in user code, on a failed iret
to user space, a canonical violation on access via RSP or RBP, or a
genuine stack segment violation in 32-bit kernel code.  The first two
cases don't need IST, and the latter two cases are unlikely fatal bugs,
and promoting them to double faults would be fine.

This fixes a bug in which the espfix64 code mishandles a stack segment
violation.

This saves 4k of memory per CPU and a tiny bit of code.

      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      There's nothing special enough about the espfix64 double fault fixup to
justify writing it in assembly.  Move it to C.

This also fixes a bug: if the double fault came from an IST stack, the
old asm code would return to a partially uninitialized stack frame.

  I just committed the patch to the percpu tree but am sending out the
