      x86/entry/64: Add missing irqflags tracing to native_load_gs_index() · ca37e57b
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      Running this code with IRQs enabled (where dummy_lock is a spinlock):
      
      static void check_load_gs_index(void)
      {
      	/* This will fail. */
      	load_gs_index(0xffff);
      
      	spin_lock(&dummy_lock);
      	spin_unlock(&dummy_lock);
      }
      
      Will generate a lockdep warning.  The issue is that the actual write
      to %gs would cause an exception with IRQs disabled, and the exception
      handler would, as an inadvertent side effect, update irqflag tracing
      to reflect the IRQs-off status.  native_load_gs_index() would then
      turn IRQs back on and return with irqflag tracing still thinking that
      IRQs were off.  The dummy lock-and-unlock causes lockdep to notice the
      error and warn.
      
      Fix it by adding the missing tracing.
      
      Apparently nothing did this in a context where it mattered.  I haven't
      tried to find a code path that would actually exhibit the warning if
      appropriately nasty user code were running.
      
      I suspect that the security impact of this bug is very, very low --
      production systems don't run with lockdep enabled, and the warning is
      mostly harmless anyway.
      
      Found during a quick audit of the entry code to try to track down an
      unrelated bug that Ingo found in some still-in-development code.

      x86/mm/kasan: Don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow · f68d62a5
      Andrey Ryabinin authored
      [ Note, this commit is a cherry-picked version of:
      
          d17a1d97: ("x86/mm/kasan: don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow")
      
        ... for easier x86 entry code testing and back-porting. ]
      
      The KASAN shadow is currently mapped using vmemmap_populate() since that
      provides a semi-convenient way to map pages into init_top_pgt.  However,
      since that no longer zeroes the mapped pages, it is not suitable for
      KASAN, which requires zeroed shadow memory.
      
      Add kasan_populate_shadow() interface and use it instead of
      vmemmap_populate().  Besides, this allows us to take advantage of
      gigantic pages and use them to populate the shadow, which should save us
      some memory wasted on page tables and reduce TLB pressure.

      x86/entry/64: Fix entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() IRQ tracing · 548c3050
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      When I added entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe(), I left TRACE_IRQS_OFF
      before it.  This means that users of entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe()
      were responsible for invoking TRACE_IRQS_OFF, and the one and only
      user (Xen, added in the same commit) got it wrong.
      
      I think this would manifest as a warning if a Xen PV guest with
      CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y were used with context tracking.  (The
      context tracking bit is to cause lockdep to get invoked before we
      turn IRQs back on.)  I haven't tested that for real yet because I
      can't get a kernel configured like that to boot at all on Xen PV.
      
      Move TRACE_IRQS_OFF below the label.

      x86/mm: Limit mmap() of /dev/mem to valid physical addresses · be62a320
      Craig Bergstrom authored
      One thing /dev/mem access APIs should verify is that there's no way
      that excessively large pfn's can leak into the high bits of the
      page table entry.
      
      In particular, if people can use "very large physical page addresses"
      through /dev/mem to set the bits past bit 58 - SOFTW4 and permission
      key bits and NX bit, that could *really* confuse the kernel.
      
      We had an earlier attempt:
      
        ce56a86e ("x86/mm: Limit mmap() of /dev/mem to valid physical addresses")
      
      ... which turned out to be too restrictive (breaking mem=... bootups for example) and
      had to be reverted in:
      
        90edaac6 ("Revert "x86/mm: Limit mmap() of /dev/mem to valid physical addresses"")
      
      This v2 attempt modifies the original patch and makes sure that mmap(/dev/mem)
      limits the pfns so that it at least fits in the actual pteval_t architecturally:
      
       - Make sure mmap_mem() actually validates that the offset fits in phys_addr_t
      
          ( This may be indirectly true due to some other check, but it's not
            entirely obvious. )
      
       - Change valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() to just use phys_addr_valid()
         on the top byte
      
          ( Top byte is sufficient, because mmap_mem() has already checked that
            it cannot wrap. )
      
       - Add a few comments about what the valid_phys_addr_range() vs.
         valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() difference is.

      x86/selftests: Add test for mapping placement for 5-level paging · 97f404ad
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      5-level paging provides a 56-bit virtual address space for user space
      application. But the kernel defaults to mappings below the 47-bit address
      space boundary, which is the upper bound for 4-level paging, unless an
      application explicitely request it by using a mmap(2) address hint above
      the 47-bit boundary. The kernel prevents mappings which spawn across the
      47-bit boundary unless mmap(2) was invoked with MAP_FIXED.
      
      Add a self-test that covers the corner cases of the interface and validates
      the correctness of the implementation.

      x86/mm: Prevent non-MAP_FIXED mapping across DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW border · 1e0f25db
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      In case of 5-level paging, the kernel does not place any mapping above
      47-bit, unless userspace explicitly asks for it.
      
      Userspace can request an allocation from the full address space by
      specifying the mmap address hint above 47-bit.
      
      Nicholas noticed that the current implementation violates this interface:
      
        If user space requests a mapping at the end of the 47-bit address space
        with a length which causes the mapping to cross the 47-bit border
        (DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW), then the vma is partially in the address space
        below and above.
      
      Sanity check the mmap address hint so that start and end of the resulting
      vma are on the same side of the 47-bit border. If that's not the case fall
      back to the code path which ignores the address hint and allocate from the
      regular address space below 47-bit.
      
      To make the checks consistent, mask out the address hints lower bits
      (either PAGE_MASK or huge_page_mask()) instead of using ALIGN() which can
      push them up to the next boundary.

      x86/umip: Identify the STR and SLDT instructions · 6e2a3064
      Ricardo Neri authored
      The STR and SLDT instructions are not emulated by the UMIP code, thus
      there's no functionality in the decoder to identify them.
      
      However, a subsequent commit will introduce a warning about the use
      of all the instructions that UMIP protect/changes, not only those that
      are emulated.
      
      A first step for that is to add the ability to decode/identify them.
      
      Plus, now that STR and SLDT are identified, we need to explicitly avoid
      their emulation (i.e., not rely on successful identification). Group
      together all the cases that we do not want to emulate: STR, SLDT and user
      long mode processes.

      x86 / CPU: Avoid unnecessary IPIs in arch_freq_get_on_cpu() · b29c6ef7
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      Even though aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() caches the samples.khz value to
      return if called again in a sufficiently short time, its caller,
      arch_freq_get_on_cpu(), still uses smp_call_function_single() to run it
      which may allow user space to trigger an IPI storm by reading from the
      scaling_cur_freq cpufreq sysfs file in a tight loop.
      
      To avoid that, move the decision on whether or not to return the cached
      samples.khz value to arch_freq_get_on_cpu().
      
      This change was part of commit 941f5f0f ("x86: CPU: Fix up "cpu MHz"
      in /proc/cpuinfo"), but it was not the reason for the revert and it
      remains applicable.

      Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "This update provides a major overhaul of the APIC initialization and
        vector allocation code:
      
         - Unification of the APIC and interrupt mode setup which was
           scattered all over the place and was hard to follow. This also
           distangles the timer setup from the APIC initialization which
           brings a clear separation of functionality.
      
           Great detective work from Dou Lyiang!
      
         - Refactoring of the x86 vector allocation mechanism. The existing
           code was based on nested loops and rather convoluted APIC callbacks
           which had a horrible worst case behaviour and tried to serve all
           different use cases in one go. This led to quite odd hacks when
           supporting the new managed interupt facility for multiqueue devices
           and made it more or less impossible to deal with the vector space
           exhaustion which was a major roadblock for server hibernation.
      
           Aside of that the code dealing with cpu hotplug and the system
           vectors was disconnected from the actual vector management and
           allocation code, which made it hard to follow and maintain.
      
           Utilizing the new bitmap matrix allocator core mechanism, the new
           allocator and management code consolidates the handling of system
           vectors, legacy vectors, cpu hotplug mechanisms and the actual
           allocation which needs to be aware of system and legacy vectors and
           hotplug constraints into a single consistent entity.
      
           This has one visible change: The support for multi CPU targets of
           interrupts, which is only available on a certain subset of
           CPUs/APIC variants has been removed in favour of single interrupt
           targets. A proper analysis of the multi CPU target feature revealed
           that there is no real advantage as the vast majority of interrupts
           end up on the CPU with the lowest APIC id in the set of target CPUs
           anyway. That change was agreed on by the relevant folks and allowed
           to simplify the implementation significantly and to replace rather
           fragile constructs like the vector cleanup IPI with straight
           forward and solid code.
      
           Furthermore this allowed to cleanly separate the allocation details
           for legacy, normal and managed interrupts:
      
            * Legacy interrupts are not longer wasting 16 vectors
              unconditionally
      
            * Managed interrupts have now a guaranteed vector reservation, but
              the actual vector assignment happens when the interrupt is
              requested. It's guaranteed not to fail.
      
            * Normal interrupts no longer allocate vectors unconditionally
              when the interrupt is set up (IO/APIC init or MSI(X) enable).
              The mechanism has been switched to a best effort reservation
              mode. The actual allocation happens when the interrupt is
              requested. Contrary to managed interrupts the request can fail
              due to vector space exhaustion, but drivers must handle a fail
              of request_irq() anyway. When the interrupt is freed, the vector
              is handed back as well.
      
              This solves a long standing problem with large unconditional
              vector allocations for a certain class of enterprise devices
              which prevented server hibernation due to vector space
              exhaustion when the unused allocated vectors had to be migrated
              to CPU0 while unplugging all non boot CPUs.
      
           The code has been equipped with trace points and detailed debugfs
           information to aid analysis of the vector space"

      Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "Yet another big pile of changes:
      
         - More year 2038 work from Arnd slowly reaching the point where we
           need to think about the syscalls themself.
      
         - A new timer function which allows to conditionally (re)arm a timer
           only when it's either not running or the new expiry time is sooner
           than the armed expiry time. This allows to use a single timer for
           multiple timeout requirements w/o caring about the first expiry
           time at the call site.
      
         - A new NMI safe accessor to clock real time for the printk timestamp
           work. Can be used by tracing, perf as well if required.
      
         - A large number of timer setup conversions from Kees which got
           collected here because either maintainers requested so or they
           simply got ignored. As Kees pointed out already there are a few
           trivial merge conflicts and some redundant commits which was
           unavoidable due to the size of this conversion effort.
      
         - Avoid a redundant iteration in the timer wheel softirq processing.
      
         - Provide a mechanism to treat RTC implementations depending on their
           hardware properties, i.e. don't inflict the write at the 0.5
           seconds boundary which originates from the PC CMOS RTC to all RTCs.
           No functional change as drivers need to be updated separately.

      Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "The main changes in this cycle were:
      
        Kernel:
      
         - kprobes updates: use better W^X patterns for code modifications,
           improve optprobes, remove jprobes. (Masami Hiramatsu, Kees Cook)
      
         - core fixes: event timekeeping (enabled/running times statistics)
           fixes, perf_event_read() locking fixes and cleanups, etc. (Peter
           Zijlstra)
      
         - Extend x86 Intel free-running PEBS support and support x86
           user-register sampling in perf record and perf script. (Andi Kleen)
      
        Tooling:
      
         - Completely rework the way inline frames are handled. Instead of
           querying for the inline nodes on-demand in the individual tools, we
           now create proper callchain nodes for inlined frames. (Milian
           Wolff)
      
         - 'perf trace' updates (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Implement a way to print formatted output to per-event files in
           'perf script' to facilitate generate flamegraphs, elliminating the
           need to write scripts to do that separation (yuzhoujian, Arnaldo
           Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Update vendor events JSON metrics for Intel's Broadwell, Broadwell
           Server, Haswell, Haswell Server, IvyBridge, IvyTown, JakeTown,
           Sandy Bridge, Skylake, SkyLake Server - and Goldmont Plus V1 (Andi
           Kleen, Kan Liang)
      
         - Multithread the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_ events for
           pre-existing threads in 'perf top', speeding up that phase, greatly
           improving the user experience in systems such as Intel's Knights
           Mill (Kan Liang)
      
         - Introduce the concept of weak groups in 'perf stat': try to set up
           a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group.
           That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but
           still a usable fallback if they don't. E.g: (Andi Kleen)
      
         - perf sched timehist enhancements (David Ahern)
      
         - ... various other enhancements, updates, cleanups and fixes"

      Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "The main changes in this cycle are:
      
         - Another attempt at enabling cross-release lockdep dependency
           tracking (automatically part of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y), this time
           with better performance and fewer false positives. (Byungchul Park)
      
         - Introduce lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled()/disabled() and convert
           open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)
      
         - Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
           method. (Kirill Tkhai)
      
         - Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
           READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
           driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)
      
         - Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
           strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
           being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
           READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)
      
         - Various micro-optimizations:
      
              - better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
              - better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
              - better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)

      Pull OpenRISC updates from Stafford Horne:
       "The OpenRISC work is a bit more interesting this time, adding SMP
        support and a few general cleanups.
      
        Small Things:
      
         - Move OpenRISC docs into Documentation and clean them up
      
         - Document previously undocumented devicetree bindings
      
         - Update the or1ksim dts to use stdout-path
      
        OpenRISC SMP support details:
      
         - First the "use shadow registers" and "define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN as
           true" get the architecture ready for SMP.
      
         - The "add 1 and 2 byte cmpxchg support" and "use qspinlocks and
           qrwlocks" add the SMP locking infrastructure as needed. Using the
           qspinlocks and qrwlocks as suggested by Peter Z while reviewing the
           original spinlocks implementation.
      
         - The "support for ompic" adds a new irqchip device which is used for
           IPI communication to support SMP.
      
         - The "initial SMP support" adds smp.c and makes changes to all of
           the necessary data-structures to be per-cpu.
      
        The remaining patches are bug fixes and debug helpers which I wanted
        to keep separate from the "initial SMP support" in order to allow them
        to be reviewed on their own. This includes:
      
         - add cacheflush support to fix icache aliasing
      
         - fix initial preempt state for secondary cpu tasks
      
         - sleep instead of spin on secondary wait
      
         - support framepointers and STACKTRACE_SUPPORT
      
         - enable LOCKDEP_SUPPORT and irqflags tracing
      
         - timer sync: Add tick timer sync logic
      
         - fix possible deadlock in timer sync, pointed out by mips guys
      
        Note: the irqchip patch was reviewed with Marc and we agreed to push
        it together with these patches"
