The old scheme for mapping the vDSO text is rather complicated.
vdso2c generates a struct vm_special_mapping and a blank .pages
array of the correct size for each vdso image. Init code in
vdso/vma.c populates the .pages array for each vDSO image, and
the mapping code selects the appropriate struct
vm_special_mapping.
With .fault, we can use a less roundabout approach: vdso_fault()
just returns the appropriate page for the selected vDSO image.

As we start to do more intelligent things with the vDSO at
runtime (as opposed to just at mm initialization time), we'll
need to know which vDSO is in use.
In principle, we could guess based on the mm type, but that's
over-complicated and error-prone. Instead, just track it in the
mmu context.

The x86 vvar vma contains pages with differing cacheability
flags. x86 currently implements this by manually inserting all
the ptes using (io_)remap_pfn_range when the vma is set up.
x86 wants to move to using .fault with VM_FAULT_NOPAGE to set up
the mappings as needed. The correct API to use to insert a pfn
in .fault is vm_insert_pfn(), but vm_insert_pfn() can't override the
vma's cache mode, and the HPET page in particular needs to be
uncached despite the fact that the rest of the VMA is cached.
Add vm_insert_pfn_prot() to support varying cacheability within
the same non-COW VMA in a more sane manner.
x86 could alternatively use multiple VMAs, but that's messy,
would break CRIU, and would create unnecessary VMAs that would
waste memory.

Requiring special mappings to give a list of struct pages is
inflexible: it prevents sane use of IO memory in a special
mapping, it's inefficient (it requires arch code to initialize a
list of struct pages, and it requires the mm core to walk the
entire list just to figure out how long it is), and it prevents
arch code from doing anything fancy when a special mapping fault
occurs.
Add a .fault method as an alternative to filling in a .pages
array.

When "eagerfpu=off" is given as a command-line input, the kernel
should disable AVX support.
The Task Switched bit used for lazy context switching does not
support AVX. If AVX is enabled without eagerfpu context
switching, one task's AVX state could become corrupted or leak
to other tasks. This is a bug and has bad security implications.
This only affects systems that have AVX/AVX2/AVX512 and this
issue will be found only when one actually uses AVX/AVX2/AVX512
_AND_ does eagerfpu=off.
Reference: Intel Software Developer's Manual Vol. 3A
Sec. 2.5 Control Registers:
TS Task Switched bit (bit 3 of CR0) -- Allows the saving of the
x87 FPU/ MMX/SSE/SSE2/SSE3/SSSE3/SSE4 context on a task switch
to be delayed until an x87 FPU/MMX/SSE/SSE2/SSE3/SSSE3/SSE4
instruction is actually executed by the new task.
Sec. 13.4.1 Using the TS Flag to Control the Saving of the X87
FPU and SSE State
When the TS flag is set, the processor monitors the instruction
stream for x87 FPU, MMX, SSE instructions. When the processor
detects one of these instructions, it raises a
device-not-available exeception (#NM) prior to executing the
instruction.

This issue is a fallout from the command-line parsing move.
When "eagerfpu=off" is given as a command-line input, the kernel
should disable MPX support. The decision for turning off MPX was
made in fpu__init_system_ctx_switch(), which is after the
selection of the XSAVE format. This patch fixes it by getting
that decision done earlier in fpu__init_system_xstate().

When "noxsave" is given as a command-line input, the kernel
should disable XGETBV1. This issue currently does not cause any
actual problems. XGETBV1 is only useful if we have something
using the 'init optimization' (i.e. xsaveopt, xsaves). We
already clear both of those in fpu__xstate_clear_all_cpu_caps().
But this is good for completeness.

The function fpu__init_system() is executed before
parse_early_param(). This causes wrong FPU configuration. This
patch fixes this issue by parsing boot_command_line in the
beginning of fpu__init_system().
With all four patches in this series, each parameter disables
features as the following:
eagerfpu=off: eagerfpu, avx, avx2, avx512, mpx
no387: fpu
nofxsr: fxsr, fxsropt, xmm
noxsave: xsave, xsaveopt, xsaves, xsavec, avx, avx2, avx512,

ldt_gdt.c relies on cross-cpu invalidation of SS to do one of
its tests. On 32-bit builds, this works fine, but on 64-bit
builds, it only works if the kernel has proper SS sigcontext
handling for 64-bit user programs.
Since the SS fixes are currently reverted, restrict the test
case to 32 bits for now.
In principle, I could change the test to use a different segment
register, but it would be messy: CS can't point to the LDT for
64-bit code, and the other registers don't result in immediate
faults because they aren't reloaded on kernel -> user
transitions.
When we fix sigcontext (in 4.6?), we can revert this.

In CONFIG_PAGEALLOC_DEBUG=y builds, we disable 2M pages.
Unfortunatly when we split up mappings during boot,
split_page_count() doesn't take this into account, and
starts decrementing an empty direct_pages_count[] level.
This results in /proc/meminfo showing crazy things like:

- Introduce the 'perf stat record/report' workflow:
Generate perf.data files from 'perf stat', to tap into the
scripting capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat'
specific scripting support to calculate event ratios, etc.
Simple example:
$ perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat report
Performance counter stats for '/home/acme/bin/perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$
It generates PERF_RECORD_ userspace records to store the details:
$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD
0xf0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_THREAD_MAP nr: 1 thread: 27637
0x118 [0x12]: PERF_RECORD_CPU_MAP nr: 1 cpu: 65535
0x12a [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_CONFIG
0x16a [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_STAT
-1 -1 0x19a [0x40]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffff81000000(0x1f000000) @ 0xffffffff81000000]: x [kernel.kallsyms]_text
0x1da [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_ROUND
[acme@ssdandy linux]$
An effort was made to make perf.data files generated like this to
not generate cryptic messages when processed by older tools.
The 'perf script' bits need rebasing, will go up later.
- Make command line options always available, even when they depend
on some feature being enabled, warning the user about use of such
options (Wang Nan)
- Support hw breakpoint events (mem:0xAddress) in the default output
mode in 'perf script' (Wang Nan)
- Fixes and improvements for supporting annotating ARM binaries,
support ARM call and jump instructions, more work needed to have
arch specific stuff separated into tools/perf/arch/*/annotate/
(Russell King)
- Add initial 'perf config' command, for now just with a --list
command to the contents of the configuration file in use and a
basic man page describing its format, commands for doing edits and
detailed documentation are being reviewed and proof-read. (Taeung
Song)
- Allows BPF scriptlets specify arguments to be fetched using DWARF
info, using a prologue generated at compile/build time (He Kuang,
Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to module symbols (Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to userspace code using uprobe (Wang
Nan)
- BPF programs now can specify 'perf probe' tunables via its section
name, separating key=val values using semicolons (Wang Nan)
Testing some of these new BPF features:
Use case: get callchains when receiving SSL packets, filter then in the
kernel, at arbitrary place.

- Use 'perf probe' various options to list functions, see what
variables can be collected at any given point, experiment first
collecting without a filter, then filter, use it together with
'perf trace', 'perf top', with or without callchains, if it
explodes, please tell us!
- Introduce a new callchain mode: "folded", that will list per line
representations of all callchains for a give histogram entry,
facilitating 'perf report' output processing by other tools, such
as Brendan Gregg's flamegraph tools (Namhyung Kim)

"The changes in this cycle were:

and are written in HTML, not the usual .txt style. I hope they are
fine"

When decompressing kernel image during x86 bootup, malloc memory
for ELF program headers may run out of heap space, which leads
to system halt. This patch doubles BOOT_HEAP_SIZE to 64KB.

When switch_mm() activates a new PGD, it also sets a bit that
tells other CPUs that the PGD is in use so that TLB flush IPIs
will be sent. In order for that to work correctly, the bit
needs to be visible prior to loading the PGD and therefore
starting to fill the local TLB.
Document all the barriers that make this work correctly and add
a couple that were missing.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
New features:
- Allow using trace events fields as sort order keys, making 'perf evlist --trace_fields'
show those, and then the user can select a subset and use like:
perf top -e sched:sched_switch -s prev_comm,next_comm
That works as well in 'perf report' when handling files containing
tracepoints.
The default when just tracepoint events are found in a perf.data file is to
format it like ftrace, using the libtraceevent formatters, plugins, etc (Namhyung Kim)
- Add support in 'perf script' to process 'perf stat record' generated files,
culminating in a python perf script that calculates CPI (Cycles per
Instruction) (Jiri Olsa)
- Show random perf tool tips in the 'perf report' bottom line (Namhyung Kim)
- perf report now defaults to --group if the perf.data file has grouped events, try it with:
# perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.093 MB perf.data (1247 samples) ]

User visible fixes:
- Coect data mmaps so that the DWARF unwinder can handle usecases needing them,
like softice (Jiri Olsa)
- Decay callchains in fractal mode, fixing up cases where 'perf top -g' would
show entries with more than 100% (Namhyung Kim)
Infrastructure changes:
- Sync tools/lib with the lib/ in the kernel sources for find_bit.c and
move bitmap.[ch] from tools/perf/util/ to tools/lib/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- No need to set attr.sample_freq in some 'perf test' entries that only
want to deal with PERF_RECORD_ meta-events, improve a bit error output
for CQM test (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fix python binding build, adding some missing object files now required

The reason is that start_shepherd_timer schedules the shepherd work item
which uses vmstat_wq (vmstat_shepherd) before setup_vmstat allocates
that workqueue so if the further initialization takes more than HZ we
might end up scheduling on a NULL vmstat_wq. This is really unlikely
but not impossible.

This replaces all code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translated
ioctl arguments into a in-kernel structure, then performed
do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), with code that allocates
data on the user stack and can call the VFS ioctl handler
under USER_DS.
This is done as a hardening measure because the caller
does not know what kind of ioctl handler will be invoked,
only that no corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists and
what the ioctl command number is. The accidental
invocation of an unlocked_ioctl handler that unexpectedly
calls copy_to_user could be a severe security issue.

In code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translates ioctl arguments
into a in-kernel structure, then performs sys_ioctl, possibly
under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), this commit changes the sys_ioctl
calls to do_ioctl calls. do_ioctl is a new function that does
the same thing as sys_ioctl, but doesn't look up the fd again.
This change is made to avoid (potential) security issues
because of ioctl handlers that accept one of the ioctl
commands I2C_FUNCS, VIDEO_GET_EVENT, MTIOCPOS, MTIOCGET,
TIOCGSERIAL, TIOCSSERIAL, RTC_IRQP_READ, RTC_EPOCH_READ.
This can happen for multiple reasons:
- The ioctl command number could be reused.
- The ioctl handler might not check the full ioctl
command. This is e.g. true for drm_ioctl.
- The ioctl handler is very special, e.g. cuse_file_ioctl
The real issue is that set_fs(KERNEL_DS) is used here,
but that's fixed in a separate commit
"compat_ioctl: don't call do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS)".
This change mitigates potential security issues by
preventing a race that permits invocation of
unlocked_ioctl handlers under KERNEL_DS through compat
code even if a corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists.
So far, no way has been identified to use this to damage
kernel memory without having CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the init ns
(with the capability, doing reads/writes at arbitrary
kernel addresses should be easy through CUSE's ioctl
handler with FUSE_IOCTL_UNRESTRICTED set).
[AV: two missed sys_ioctl() taken care of]
