The trick with flipping bit 63 to avoid loading the address of the 1:1 mapping of the poisoned page while the 1:1 map is updated used to work when unmapping the page. But it falls down horribly when attempting to directly set the page as uncacheable. The problem is that when the cache mode is changed to uncachable, the pages needs to be flushed from the cache first. But the decoy address is non-canonical due to bit 63 flipped, and the CLFLUSH instruction throws a #GP fault. Add code to change_page_attr_set_clr() to fix the address before calling flush.

When PTI is enabled on x86-32 the kernel uses the GDT mapped in the fixmap for the simple reason that this address is also mapped for user-space. The efi_call_phys_prolog()/efi_call_phys_epilog() wrappers change the GDT to call EFI runtime services and switch back to the kernel GDT when they return. But the switch-back uses the writable GDT, not the fixmap GDT. When that happened and and the CPU returns to user-space it switches to the user %cr3 and tries to restore user segment registers. This fails because the writable GDT is not mapped in the user page-table, and without a GDT the fault handlers also can't be launched. The result is a triple fault and reboot of the machine. Fix that by restoring the GDT back to the fixmap GDT which is also mapped in the user page-table.

A NMI can hit in the middle of context switching or in the middle of switch_mm_irqs_off(). In either case, CR3 might not match current->mm, which could cause copy_from_user_nmi() and friends to read the wrong memory. Fix it by adding a new nmi_uaccess_okay() helper and checking it in copy_from_user_nmi() and in __copy_from_user_nmi()'s callers.

Reset the KASAN shadow state of the task stack before rewinding RSP. Without this, a kernel oops will leave parts of the stack poisoned, and code running under do_exit() can trip over such poisoned regions and cause nonsensical false-positive KASAN reports about stack-out-of-bounds bugs. This does not wipe the exception stacks; if an oops happens on an exception stack, it might result in random KASAN false-positives from other tasks afterwards. This is probably relatively uninteresting, since if the kernel oopses on an exception stack, there are most likely bigger things to worry about. It'd be more interesting if vmapped stacks and KASAN were compatible, since then handle_stack_overflow() would oops from exception stack context.

On Nehalem and newer core CPUs the CPU cache internally uses 44 bits physical address space. The L1TF workaround is limited by this internal cache address width, and needs to have one bit free there for the mitigation to work. Older client systems report only 36bit physical address space so the range check decides that L1TF is not mitigated for a 36bit phys/32GB system with some memory holes. But since these actually have the larger internal cache width this warning is bogus because it would only really be needed if the system had more than 43bits of memory. Add a new internal x86_cache_bits field. Normally it is the same as the physical bits field reported by CPUID, but for Nehalem and newerforce it to be at least 44bits. Change the L1TF memory size warning to use the new cache_bits field to avoid bogus warnings and remove the bogus comment about memory size.

The recovery code has specific enabling for several possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax mappings. In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses: 1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races that would typically be handled by the page lock. 2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn. 3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.

This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during the page table copy operation. It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it was already not writable. This patch was inspired by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447 which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the presence of lots of signals. That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series culminating in commit c3ad2c3b ("signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

At the point where r is being checked for different values, r is always going to be equal to 2 as the previous if statements jump to end or end1 if r is not 2. Hence the assignment to err can be simplified to just err an assignment without any checks on the value or r.

Thanks for your work in this area. I still remember the first linux storage summit we did in Vancouver 2001, Tejun was invited to talk about his libata error handling work. Before that, it was basically a crap shoot if we recovered properly or not... A lot of water has flown under the bridge since then! Here's an "official" patch. Linus, can you apply it?

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: - An implementation for the newly added hv_ops->flush() for the OPAL hvc console driver backends, I forgot to apply this after merging the hvc driver changes before the merge window. - Enable all PCI bridges at boot on powernv, to avoid races when multiple children of a bridge try to enable it simultaneously. This is a workaround until the PCI core can be enhanced to fix the races. - A fix to query PowerVM for the correct system topology at boot before initialising sched domains, seen in some configurations to cause broken scheduling etc. - A fix for pte_access_permitted() on "nohash" platforms. - Two commits to fix SIGBUS when using remap_pfn_range() seen on Power9 due to a workaround when using the nest MMU (GPUs, accelerators). - Another fix to the VFIO code used by KVM, the previous fix had some bugs which caused guests to not start in some configurations. - A handful of other minor fixes.
