An interrupt handler that uses the fpu can kill a KVM VM, if it runs under the following conditions: - the guest's xcr0 register is loaded on the cpu - the guest's fpu context is not loaded - the host is using eagerfpu Note that the guest's xcr0 register and fpu context are not loaded as part of the atomic world switch into "guest mode". They are loaded by KVM while the cpu is still in "host mode". Usage of the fpu in interrupt context is gated by irq_fpu_usable(). The interrupt handler will look something like this: if (irq_fpu_usable()) { kernel_fpu_begin(); [... code that uses the fpu ...] kernel_fpu_end(); } As long as the guest's fpu is not loaded and the host is using eager fpu, irq_fpu_usable() returns true (interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle() returns true). The interrupt handler proceeds to use the fpu with the guest's xcr0 live. kernel_fpu_begin() saves the current fpu context. If this uses XSAVE[OPT], it may leave the xsave area in an undesirable state. According to the SDM, during XSAVE bit i of XSTATE_BV is not modified if bit i is 0 in xcr0. So it's possible that XSTATE_BV[i] == 1 and xcr0[i] == 0 following an XSAVE. kernel_fpu_end() restores the fpu context. Now if any bit i in XSTATE_BV == 1 while xcr0[i] == 0, XRSTOR generates a #GP. The fault is trapped and SIGSEGV is delivered to the current process. Only pre-4.2 kernels appear to be vulnerable to this sequence of events. Commit 653f52c3 ("kvm,x86: load guest FPU context more eagerly") from 4.2 forces the guest's fpu to always be loaded on eagerfpu hosts. This patch fixes the bug by keeping the host's xcr0 loaded outside of the interrupts-disabled region where KVM switches into guest mode.

Commit 1e947bad ("arm64: KVM: Skip HYP setup when already running in HYP") re-organized the hyp init code and ended up leaving the CPU hotplug and PM notifier even if hyp mode initialization fails. Since KVM is not yet supported with ACPI, the above mentioned commit breaks CPU hotplug in ACPI boot. This patch fixes teardown_hyp_mode to properly unregister both CPU hotplug and PM notifiers in the teardown path.

We always thought that 40bits of PA range would be the minimum people would actually build. Anything less is terrifyingly small. Turns out that we were both right and wrong. Nobody has ever built such a system, but the ARM Foundation Model has a PARange set to 36bits. Just because we can. Oh well. Now, the KVM API explicitely says that we offer a 40bit PA space to the VM, so we shouldn't run KVM on the Foundation Model at all. That being said, this patch offers a less agressive alternative, and loudly warns about the configuration being unsupported. You'll still be able to run VMs (at your own risks, though). This is just a workaround until we have a proper userspace API where we report the PARange to userspace.

On a host that runs NTP, corrections can have a direct impact on the background timer that we program on the behalf of a vcpu. In particular, NTP performing a forward correction will result in a timer expiring sooner than expected from a guest point of view. Not a big deal, we kick the vcpu anyway. But on wake-up, the vcpu thread is going to perform a check to find out whether or not it should block. And at that point, the timer check is going to say "timer has not expired yet, go back to sleep". This results in the timer event being lost forever. There are multiple ways to handle this. One would be record that the timer has expired and let kvm_cpu_has_pending_timer return true in that case, but that would be fairly invasive. Another is to check for the "short sleep" condition in the hrtimer callback, and restart the timer for the remaining time when the condition is detected. This patch implements the latter, with a bit of refactoring in order to avoid too much code duplication.

When a vCPU runs on a nohz_full core, the hrtimer used by the lapic emulation code can be migrated to another core. When this happens, it's possible to observe milisecond latency when delivering timer IRQs to KVM guests. The huge latency is mainly due to the fact that apic_timer_fn() expects to run during a kvm exit. It sets KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER and let it be handled on kvm entry. However, if the timer fires on a different core, we have to wait until the next kvm exit for the guest to see KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER set. This problem became visible after commit 9642d18e. This commit changed the timer migration code to always attempt to migrate timers away from nohz_full cores. While it's discussable if this is correct/desirable (I don't think it is), it's clear that the lapic emulation code has a requirement on firing the hrtimer in the same core where it was started. This is achieved by making the hrtimer pinned. Lastly, note that KVM has code to migrate timers when a vCPU is scheduled to run in different core. However, this forced migration may fail. When this happens, we can have the same problem. If we want 100% correctness, we'll have to modify apic_timer_fn() to cause a kvm exit when it runs on a different core than the vCPU. Not sure if this is possible. Here's a reproducer for the issue being fixed: 1. Set all cores but core0 to be nohz_full cores 2. Start a guest with a single vCPU 3. Trace apic_timer_fn() and kvm_inject_apic_timer_irqs() You'll see that apic_timer_fn() will run in core0 while kvm_inject_apic_timer_irqs() runs in a different core. If you get both on core0, try running a program that takes 100% of the CPU and pin it to core0 to force the vCPU out.

In commit e4570897 ("drm/dp-helper: Move the legacy helpers to gma500") the legacy i2c helpers were moved to the only remaining user of them, the gma500 driver. Together with that move, i2c_dp_aux_add_bus() was marked deprecated and started warning about its remaining use. It's now been a year and a half of annoying warning, and apparently nobody cares enough about gma500 to try to move it along to the more modern models. Get rid of the warning - if even the gma500 people don't care enough, then they should certainly not spam other innocent developers with a warning that might hide other, much more real issues.

The second is manual fixups on top. The third patch removes macros definition" [ I was planning to apply this just before rc2, but then I spaced out, so here it is right _after_ rc2 instead. As Kirill suggested as a possibility, I could have decided to only merge the first two patches, and leave the old interfaces for compatibility, but I'd rather get it all done and any out-of-tree modules and patches can trivially do the converstion while still also working with older kernels, so there is little reason to try to maintain the redundant legacy model. - Linus ] * PAGE_CACHE_SIZE-removal: mm: drop PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} definition mm, fs: remove remaining PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} usage mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch.

Moving an unmasked irq may result in irq handler being invoked on both source and target CPUs. With 2-level this can happen as follows: On source CPU: evtchn_2l_handle_events() -> generic_handle_irq() -> handle_edge_irq() -> eoi_pirq(): irq_move_irq(data); /***** WE ARE HERE *****/ if (VALID_EVTCHN(evtchn)) clear_evtchn(evtchn); If at this moment target processor is handling an unrelated event in evtchn_2l_handle_events()'s loop it may pick up our event since target's cpu_evtchn_mask claims that this event belongs to it *and* the event is unmasked and still pending. At the same time, source CPU will continue executing its own handle_edge_irq(). With FIFO interrupt the scenario is similar: irq_move_irq() may result in a EVTCHNOP_unmask hypercall which, in turn, may make the event pending on the target CPU. We can avoid this situation by moving and clearing the event while keeping event masked.

When an unsupported reloc is encountered in a module, we currently blindly branch to whatever would be at its entry in the reloc handler function pointer arrays. This may be NULL, or if the unsupported reloc has a type greater than that of the supported reloc with the highest type then we'll dereference some value after the function pointer array & branch to that. The result is at best a kernel oops. Fix this by checking that the reloc type has an entry in the function pointer array (ie. is less than the number of items in the array) and that the handler is non-NULL, returning an error code to fail the module load if no handler is found.

Current ath79 clock.c code does not read reference clock and pll setup from devicetree. The ar724x_clocks_init() function recreates the clocks from scratch so devicetree clock information is dropped. After adding the code which picked up reference clock from devicetree I have found that kernel does not boot anymore. The SPI and UART drivers can't get clk; here are the bootlog error messages: of_serial: probe of 18020000.uart failed with error -22 ath79-spi: probe of 1f000000.spi failed with error -22 The problem is that clock code assumes that reference clock name is "ref" but current dts-file uses another name: "oscillator". This patch fixes the problem by changing external oscillator dt node name to "ref". Please note that there is an alternative solution for the problem: > --- a/arch/mips/boot/dts/qca/ar9132_tl_wr1043nd_v1.dts > +++ b/arch/mips/boot/dts/qca/ar9132_tl_wr1043nd_v1.dts > @@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ > > extosc: oscillator { > compatible = "fixed-clock"; > + clock-output-names = "ref"; > #clock-cells = <0>; > clock-frequency = <40000000>; > }; Signed-off-by: Antony Pavlov <antonynpavlov@gmail.com> Cc: Alban Bedel <albeu@free.fr> Cc: Michael Turquette <mturquette@baylibre.com> Cc: Rob Herring <robh+dt@kernel.org> Cc: linux-clk@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: devicetree@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/12874/Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The reference clock on ar913x is at 40MHz and not 5MHz. The current implementation use the wrong reference rate because it doesn't take the PLL divider in account. But if we fix the code to use the divider it becomes identical with the implementation for ar724x, so just drop the broken ar913x implementation.

According to the AR7242 datasheet section 2.8, AR724X CPUs use a 40MHz input clock as the REF_CLK instead of 5MHz. The correct CPU PLL calculation procedure is as follows: CPU_PLL = (FB * REF_CLK) / REF_DIV / 2. This patch is compatible with the current calculation procedure with default FB and REF_DIV values. Tested on AR7240, AR7241 and AR7242.
