2018-01-26Merge remote-tracking branch 'regulator/topic/core' into regulator-nextMark Brown
2018-01-26regulator: added support for suspend statesChunyan Zhang
Some systems need to set regulators to specific states when they enter low power modes, especially around CPUs. There are many of these modes depending on the particular runtime state. Currently the regulator consumers are not granted permission to change suspend state of regulator devices, the constraints are configured at startup. In order to allow changes in a vlotage range, we need to add new properties for voltage range and a flag to give permission to change the suspend voltage and suspend on/off in suspend mode.

2018-01-19KVM: PPC: Book3S: Provide information about hardware/firmware CVE workaroundsPaul Mackerras
This adds a new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR, that gives userspace information about the underlying machine's level of vulnerability to the recently announced vulnerabilities CVE-2017-5715, CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5754, and whether the machine provides instructions to assist software to work around the vulnerabilities. The ioctl returns two u64 words describing characteristics of the CPU and required software behaviour respectively, plus two mask words which indicate which bits have been filled in by the kernel, for extensibility. The bit definitions are the same as for the new H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS hypercall. There is also a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR, which indicates whether the new ioctl is available.

2018-01-11x86/PCI: Add "pci=big_root_window" option for AMD 64-bit windows=?UTF-8?q?Christian=20K=C3=B6nig?=
Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window" is specified. This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory that would conflict with the window. The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to AMD CPUs. The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling it.

2018-01-06kconfig: fix relational operators for bool and tristate symbolsNicolas Pitre
Since commit 31847b67bec0 ("kconfig: allow use of relations other than (in)equality") it is possible to use relational operators in Kconfig statements. However, those operators give unexpected results when applied to bool/tristate values: (n < y) = y (correct) (m < y) = y (correct) (n < m) = n (wrong) This happens because relational operators process bool and tristate symbols as strings and m sorts before n. It makes little sense to do a lexicographical compare on bool and tristate values though. Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt states that expression can have a value of 'n', 'm' or 'y' (or 0, 1, 2 respectively for calculations). Let's make it so for relational comparisons with bool/tristate expressions as well and document them. If at least one symbol is an actual string then the lexicographical compare works just as before.

2018-01-05x86/kaslr: Fix the vaddr_end messThomas Gleixner
vaddr_end for KASLR is only documented in the KASLR code itself and is adjusted depending on config options. So it's not surprising that a change of the memory layout causes KASLR to have the wrong vaddr_end. This can map arbitrary stuff into other areas causing hard to understand problems. Remove the whole ifdef magic and define the start of the cpu_entry_area to be the end of the KASLR vaddr range. Add documentation to that effect.

2018-01-04x86/mm: Set MODULES_END to 0xffffffffff000000Andrey Ryabinin
Since f06bdd4001c2 ("x86/mm: Adapt MODULES_END based on fixmap section size") kasan_mem_to_shadow(MODULES_END) could be not aligned to a page boundary. So passing page unaligned address to kasan_populate_zero_shadow() have two possible effects: 1) It may leave one page hole in supposed to be populated area. After commit 21506525fb8d ("x86/kasan/64: Teach KASAN about the cpu_entry_area") that hole happens to be in the shadow covering fixmap area and leads to crash: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffbffffe8ee04 RIP: 0010:check_memory_region+0x5c/0x190 Call Trace: <NMI> memcpy+0x1f/0x50 ghes_copy_tofrom_phys+0xab/0x180 ghes_read_estatus+0xfb/0x280 ghes_notify_nmi+0x2b2/0x410 nmi_handle+0x115/0x2c0 default_do_nmi+0x57/0x110 do_nmi+0xf8/0x150 end_repeat_nmi+0x1a/0x1e Note, the crash likely disappeared after commit 92a0f81d8957, which changed kasan_populate_zero_shadow() call the way it was before commit 21506525fb8d. 2) Attempt to load module near MODULES_END will fail, because __vmalloc_node_range() called from kasan_module_alloc() will hit the WARN_ON(!pte_none(*pte)) in the vmap_pte_range() and bail out with error. To fix this we need to make kasan_mem_to_shadow(MODULES_END) page aligned which means that MODULES_END should be 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned. The whole point of commit f06bdd4001c2 was to move MODULES_END down if NR_CPUS is big, so the cpu_entry_area takes a lot of space. But since 92a0f81d8957 ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmap") the cpu_entry_area is no longer in fixmap, so we could just set MODULES_END to a fixed 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned address.

2017-12-23x86/pti: Put the LDT in its own PGD if PTI is onAndy Lutomirski
With PTI enabled, the LDT must be mapped in the usermode tables somewhere. The LDT is per process, i.e. per mm. An earlier approach mapped the LDT on context switch into a fixmap area, but that's a big overhead and exhausted the fixmap space when NR_CPUS got big. Take advantage of the fact that there is an address space hole which provides a completely unused pgd. Use this pgd to manage per-mm LDT mappings. This has a down side: the LDT isn't (currently) randomized, and an attack that can write the LDT is instant root due to call gates (thanks, AMD, for leaving call gates in AMD64 but designing them wrong so they're only useful for exploits). This can be mitigated by making the LDT read-only or randomizing the mapping, either of which is strightforward on top of this patch. This will significantly slow down LDT users, but that shouldn't matter for important workloads -- the LDT is only used by DOSEMU(2), Wine, and very old libc implementations.

The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date, but a late fixup made that moot. - Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to diagnose failures. The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of 32bit wraparounds. - Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already, but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with the fixmap code - A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of the TLB functions should be used for what. - Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces confusing. - Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(), which is only invoked on fork(). - Make vysycall more robust. - A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out of sync with the index enums. - Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI. - Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI integration simpler and header files less convoluted. - Documentation fixes and clarifications" * 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (24 commits) x86/cpu_entry_area: Prevent wraparound in setup_cpu_entry_area_ptes() on 32bit init: Invoke init_espfix_bsp() from mm_init() x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmap x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it to a separate unit x86/mm: Create asm/invpcid.h x86/mm: Put MMU to hardware ASID translation in one place x86/mm: Remove hard-coded ASID limit checks x86/mm: Move the CR3 construction functions to tlbflush.h x86/mm: Add comments to clarify which TLB-flush functions are supposed to flush what x86/mm: Remove superfluous barriers x86/mm: Use __flush_tlb_one() for kernel memory x86/microcode: Dont abuse the TLB-flush interface x86/uv: Use the right TLB-flush API x86/entry: Rename SYSENTER_stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA_entry_stack x86/doc: Remove obvious weirdnesses from the x86 MM layout documentation x86/mm/64: Improve the memory map documentation x86/ldt: Prevent LDT inheritance on exec x86/ldt: Rework locking arch, mm: Allow arch_dup_mmap() to fail x86/vsyscall/64: Warn and fail vsyscall emulation in NATIVE mode ...
