git commit 26f15caa ("s390/cmpxchg: simplify cmpxchg_double") removed support for cmpxchg_double for two consecutive four byte values, for which it would generate a cds instruction. However I forgot to remove the corresponding define in our percpu header file, which means that this_cpu_cmpxchg_double would now incorrectly generate a cdsg instruction if being used on a double four byte location. Therefore remove the percpu define as well. There is currently no user and therefore no bug fixed with this. Obviously any such user could and should simply use cmpxchg.

commit e22cf8ca ("s390/cpumf: rework program parameter setting to detect guest samples") requires guest changes to get proper guest/host. We can do better: We can use the primary asn value, which is set on all Linux variants to compare this with the host pp value. We now have the following cases: 1. Guest using PP host sample: gpp == 0, asn == hpp --> host guest sample: gpp != 0 --> guest 2. Guest not using PP host sample: gpp == 0, asn == hpp --> host guest sample: gpp == 0, asn != hpp --> guest As soon as the host no longer sets CR4, we must back out this heuristics - let's add a comment in switch_to.

The double escape character sequence introduced with commit 272fa59c ("s390/dis: Fix handling of format specifiers") is not necessary anymore since commit 561e1030 ("s390/dis: Fix printing of the register numbers"). Instead this now generates an extra '%' character: lg %%r1,160(%%r11) So fix this and basically revert 272fa59c.

Git commit ab3f285f "KVM: s390/mm: try a cow on read only pages for key ops" added a fixup_user_fault to set_guest_storage_key force a copy on write if the page is mapped read-only. This is supposed to fix the problem of differing storage keys for shared mappings, e.g. the empty_zero_page. But if the storage key is set before the pte is mapped the storage key update is done on the pgste. A later fault will happily map the shared page with the key from the pgste. Eventually git commit 2faee8ff "s390/mm: prevent and break zero page mappings in case of storage keys" fixed this problem for the empty_zero_page. The commit makes sure that guests enabled for storage keys will not use the empty_zero_page at all. As the call to fixup_user_fault in set_guest_storage_key depends on the order of the storage key operation vs. the fault that maps the pte it does not really fix anything. Just remove it.

We have four different stack tracers of which three had bugs. So it's time to merge them to a single stack tracer which allows to specify a call back function which will be called for each step. This patch changes behavior a bit: - the "nosched" and "in_sched_functions" check within save_stack_trace_tsk did work only for the last stack frame within a context. Now it considers the check for each stack frame like it should. - both the oprofile variant and the perf_events variant did save a return address twice if a zero back chain was detected, which indicates an interrupt frame. The new dump_trace function will call the oprofile and perf_events backends with the psw address that is contained within the corresponding pt_regs structure instead. - the original show_trace and save_context_stack functions did already use the psw address of the pt_regs structure if a zero back chain was detected. However now we ignore the psw address if it is a user space address. After all we trace the kernel stack and not the user space stack. This way we also get rid of the garbage user space address in case of warnings and / or panic call traces. So this should make life easier since now there is only one stack tracer left which we can break.

The correct lock order for LCU lock and cdev lock is to take the cdev lock first and afterwards the LCU lock. This is caused by the fact that LCU functions are called in an interrupt context with the cdev lock implicitly hold by CIO. To assure the right locking order but also be able to iterate over devices in a LCU introduce a trylock block that can be called with the device lock for one device hold and then takes the LCU lock and try to lock all devices accounted to this LCU. Afterwards all devices and the LCU itself are locked. Signed-off-by: Stefan Haberland <stefan.haberland@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The change of the access rights for an address range in the kernel address space is currently done with a loop of IPTE + a store of the modified PTE. Between the IPTE and the store the PTE will be invalid, this intermediate state can cause problems with concurrent accesses. Consider a change of a kernel area from read-write to read-only, a concurrent reader of that area should be fine but with the invalid PTE it might get an unexpected exception. Remove the IPTEs for each PTE and do a global flush after all PTEs have been modified.

For each PCI function we need to maintain arch specific data in struct zpci_dev which also contains a pointer to struct pci_dev. When a function is registered or deregistered (which is triggered by PCI common code) we need to adjust that pointer which could interfere with the machine check handler (triggered by FW) using zpci_dev->pdev. Since multiple instances of the same pdev could exist at a time this can't be solved with locking. Fix that by ditching the pdev pointer and use a bus walk to reach struct pci_dev (only one instance of a pdev can be registered at the bus at a time).

git commit 80703617 "s390: add support for vector extension" broke 31-bit compat processes in regard to signal handling. The restore_sigregs_ext32() function is used to restore the additional elements from the user space signal frame. Among the additional elements are the upper registers halves for 64-bit register support for 31-bit processes. The copy_from_user that is used to retrieve the high-gprs array from the user stack uses an incorrect length, 8 bytes instead of 64 bytes. This causes incorrect upper register halves to get loaded.

In __request_region, if a conflict with a BUSY and MUXED resource is detected, then the caller goes to sleep and waits for the resource to be released. A pointer on the conflicting resource is kept. At wake-up this pointer is used as a parent to retry to request the region. A first problem is that this pointer might well be invalid (if for example the conflicting resource have already been freed). Another problem is that the next call to __request_region() fails to detect a remaining conflict. The previously conflicting resource is passed as a parameter and __request_region() will look for a conflict among the children of this resource and not at the resource itself. It is likely to succeed anyway, even if there is still a conflict. Instead, the parent of the conflicting resource should be passed to __request_region(). As a fix, this patch doesn't update the parent resource pointer in the case we have to wait for a muxed region right after.

Although we don't expect to take alignment faults on access to normal memory, misbehaving (i.e. buggy) user code can pass MMIO pointers into system calls, leading to things like get_user accessing device memory. Rather than OOPS the kernel, allow any exception fixups to run and return something like -EFAULT back to userspace. This makes the behaviour more consistent with userspace, even though applications with access to device mappings can easily cause other issues if they try hard enough.

Competing overwrite DIO in dioread_nolock mode will just overwrite pointer to io_end in the inode. This may result in data corruption or extent conversion happening from IO completion interrupt because we don't properly set buffer_defer_completion() when unlocked DIO races with locked DIO to unwritten extent. Since unlocked DIO doesn't need io_end for anything, just avoid allocating it and corrupting pointer from inode for locked DIO. A cleaner fix would be to avoid these games with io_end pointer from the inode but that requires more intrusive changes so we leave that for later.

ext4 can update bh->b_state non-atomically in _ext4_get_block() and ext4_da_get_block_prep(). Usually this is fine since bh is just a temporary storage for mapping information on stack but in some cases it can be fully living bh attached to a page. In such case non-atomic update of bh->b_state can race with an atomic update which then gets lost. Usually when we are mapping bh and thus updating bh->b_state non-atomically, nobody else touches the bh and so things work out fine but there is one case to especially worry about: ext4_finish_bio() uses BH_Uptodate_Lock on the first bh in the page to synchronize handling of PageWriteback state. So when blocksize < pagesize, we can be atomically modifying bh->b_state of a buffer that actually isn't under IO and thus can race e.g. with delalloc trying to map that buffer. The result is that we can mistakenly set / clear BH_Uptodate_Lock bit resulting in the corruption of PageWriteback state or missed unlock of BH_Uptodate_Lock. Fix the problem by always updating bh->b_state bits atomically.
