For each CPU vendor that implements CPU microcode patching, there will be a minimum family for which this is implemented. Verify this minimum level of support. This can be done in the dispatch function or early in the application functions. Doing the latter turned out to be somewhat awkward because of the ineviable split between the BSP and the AP paths, and rather than pushing deep into the application functions, do this in the dispatch function.

Using this parameter one can disable the storage_size/2 check if he is really sure that the UEFI does sane gc and fulfills the spec. This parameter is useful if a devices uses more than 50% of the storage by default. The Intel DQSW67 desktop board is such a sucker for exmaple.

Matthew Garrett authored
EFI implementations distinguish between space that is actively used by a variable and space that merely hasn't been garbage collected yet. Space that hasn't yet been garbage collected isn't available for use and so isn't counted in the remaining_space field returned by QueryVariableInfo(). Combined with commit 68d92986 this can cause problems. Some implementations don't garbage collect until the remaining space is smaller than the maximum variable size, and as a result check_var_size() will always fail once more than 50% of the variable store has been used even if most of that space is marked as available for garbage collection. The user is unable to create new variables, and deleting variables doesn't increase the remaining space. The problem that 68d92986 was attempting to avoid was one where certain platforms fail if the actively used space is greater than 50% of the available storage space. We should be able to calculate that by simply summing the size of each available variable and subtracting that from the total storage space. With luck this will fix the problem described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55471 without permitting damage to occur to the machines 68d92986 was attempting to fix.

EFI variables can be flagged as being accessible only within boot services. This makes it awkward for us to figure out how much space they use at runtime. In theory we could figure this out by simply comparing the results from QueryVariableInfo() to the space used by all of our variables, but that fails if the platform doesn't garbage collect on every boot. Thankfully, calling QueryVariableInfo() while still inside boot services gives a more reliable answer. This patch passes that information from the EFI boot stub up to the efi platform code.

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: a8aed3e0 ("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 a8aed3e0 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: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:396! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP .. snip ..

Let's not burden ia64 with checks in the common efivars code that we're not writing too much data to the variable store.

eboot.o and efi_stub_$(BITS).o didn't get added to "targets", and hence their .cmd files don't get included by the build machinery, leading to the files always getting rebuilt. Rather than adding the two files individually, take the opportunity and add $(VMLINUX_OBJS) to "targets" instead, thus allowing the assignment at the top of the file to be shrunk quite a bit. At the same time, remove a pointless flags override line - the variable assigned to was misspelled anyway, and the options added are meaningless for assembly sources.

Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary. nf_reset() is used in the following cases: - when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point. - when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue tracing these packets after IPsec processing. - when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should be traced after that, however we've always done that. - when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the original patch intended to fix. Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to fix this properly. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch changes GFS2's discard issuing code so that it calls function sb_issue_discard rather than blkdev_issue_discard. The code was calling blkdev_issue_discard and specifying the correct sector offset and sector size, but blkdev_issue_discard expects these values to be in terms of 512 byte sectors, even if the native sector size for the device is different. Calling sb_issue_discard with the BLOCK size instead ensures the correct block-to-512b-sector translation. I verified that "minlen" is specified in blocks, so comparing it to a number of blocks is correct.

This reverts commit 0ef1594c. This patch introduced a few races which cannot be easily fixed with a small follow-up patch. Furthermore, the SoC with the broken hardware register, which this patch intended to add support for, can only be used with device trees, which this driver currently does not support.

A recent patch to fix the dm cache target's writethrough mode extended the bio's front_pad to include a 1056-byte struct dm_bio_details. Writeback mode doesn't need this, so this patch reduces the per_bio_data_size to 16 bytes in this case instead of 1096. The dm_bio_details structure was added in "dm cache: fix writes to cache device in writethrough mode" which fixed commit e2e74d61 ("dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation"). In writeback mode we avoid allocating the writethrough-specific members of the per_bio_data structure (the dm_bio_details structure included).

The dm-cache writethrough strategy introduced by commit e2e74d61 ("dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation") issues a bio to the origin device, remaps and then issues the bio to the cache device. This more conservative in-series approach was selected to favor correctness over performance (of the previous parallel writethrough). However, this in-series implementation that reuses the same bio to write both the origin and cache device didn't take into account that the block layer's req_bio_endio() modifies a completing bio's bi_sector and bi_size. So the new writethrough strategy needs to preserve these bio fields, and restore them before submission to the cache device, otherwise nothing gets written to the cache (because bi_size is 0). This patch adds a struct dm_bio_details field to struct per_bio_data, and uses dm_bio_record() and dm_bio_restore() to ensure the bio is restored before reissuing to the cache device. Adding such a large structure to the per_bio_data is not ideal but we can improve this later, for now correctness is the important thing. This problem initially went unnoticed because the dm-cache test-suite uses a linear DM device for the dm-cache device's origin device. Writethrough worked as expected because DM submits a *clone* of the original bio, so the original bio which was reused for the cache was never touched. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

SA_RESTORER used to be defined as 0x04000000 but only the O32 ABI ever supported its use and no libc was using it, so the entire sa-restorer functionality was removed with lmo commit 39bffc12c3580ab [Zap sa_restorer.] for 2.5.48 retaining only the SA_RESTORER definition as a reminder to avoid accidental reuse of the mask bit. Upstream cdef9602 [signal: always clear sa_restorer on execve] adds code that assumes sa_sigaction has an sa_restorer field, if SA_RESTORER is defined which would break MIPS. So remove the SA_RESTORER definition before the v3.8.4 merge. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> (cherry picked from commit 17da8d63add23830892ac4dc2cbb3b5d4ffb79a8)
