Promote one fix for 3.16
This fix was necessary after
9c15a24b038f ("x86/mce: Improve mcheck_init_device() error handling")
went in. What this patch did was, among others, check the return value
of misc_register and exit early if it encountered an error. Original
code sloppily didn't do that.
However,
cef12ee52b05 ("xen/mce: Add mcelog support for Xen platform")
made it so that xen's init routine xen_late_init_mcelog runs first. This
was needed for the xen mcelog device which is supposed to be independent
from the baremetal one.
Initially it was reported that misc_register() fails often on xen and
that's why it needed fixing. However, it is *supposed* to fail by
design, when running in dom0 so that the xen mcelog device file gets
registered first.
And *then* you need the notifier *not* unregistered on the error path so
that the timer does get deleted properly in the CPU hotplug notifier.
Btw, this fix is needed also on baremetal in the unlikely event that
misc_register(&mce_chrdev_device) fails there too.
I was unsure whether to rush it in now and decided to delay it to 3.17.
However, xen people wanted it promoted as it breaks xen when doing cpu
hotplug there. So, after a bit of simmering in tip/master for initial
smoke testing, let's move it to 3.16. It fixes a semi-regression which
got introduced in 3.16 so no need for stable tagging.
tip/x86/ras contains that exact same commit but we can't remove it
there as it is not the last one. It won't cause any merge issues, as I
confirmed locally but I should state here the special situation of this
one fix explicitly anyway.
Thanks.

P4 systems with cpuid level < 4 can have SMT, but the cache topology
description available (cpuid2) does not include SMP information.
Now we know that SMT shares all cache levels, and therefore we can
mark all available cache levels as shared.
We do this by setting cpu_llc_id to ->phys_proc_id, since that's
the same for each SMT thread. We can do this unconditional since if
there's no SMT its still true, the one CPU shares cache with only
itself.
This fixes a problem where such CPUs report an incorrect LLC CPU mask.
This in turn fixes a crash in the scheduler where the topology was
build wrong, it assumes the LLC mask to include at least the SMT CPUs.

Commit 554086d ("x86_32, entry: Do syscall exit work on badsys
(CVE-2014-4508)") introduced a regression in the x86_32 syscall entry
code, resulting in syscall() not returning proper errors for undefined
syscalls on CPUs supporting the sysenter feature.
The following code:
> int result = syscall(666);
> printf("result=%d errno=%d error=%s\n", result, errno, strerror(errno));
results in:
> result=666 errno=0 error=Success
Obviously, the syscall return value is the called syscall number, but it
should have been an ENOSYS error. When run under ptrace it behaves
correctly, which makes it hard to debug in the wild:
> result=-1 errno=38 error=Function not implemented
The %eax register is the return value register. For debugging via ptrace
the syscall entry code stores the complete register context on the
stack. The badsys handlers only store the ENOSYS error code in the
ptrace register set and do not set %eax like a regular syscall handler
would. The old resume_userspace call chain contains code that clobbers
%eax and it restores %eax from the ptrace registers afterwards. The same
goes for the ptrace-enabled call chain. When ptrace is not used, the
syscall return value is the passed-in syscall number from the untouched
%eax register.
Use %eax as the return value register in syscall_badsys and
sysenter_badsys, like a real syscall handler does, and have the caller
push the value onto the stack for ptrace access.

BorisO reports that misc_register() fails often on xen. The current code
unregisters the CPU hotplug notifier in that case. If then a CPU is
offlined and onlined back again, we end up with a second timer running
on that CPU, leading to soft lockups and system hangs.
So let's leave the hotcpu notifier always registered - even if
mce_device_create failed for some cores and never unreg it so that we
can deal with the timer handling accordingly.

It's unnecessary to excessively spam the kernel log anytime the BTS buffer
cannot be allocated, so make this allocation __GFP_NOWARN.
The user probably will want to at least find some artifact that the
allocation has failed in the past, probably due to fragmentation because
of its large size, when it's not allocated at bootstrap. Thus, add a
WARN_ONCE() so something is left behind for them to understand why perf
commnads that require PEBS is not working properly.

With -cpu host, KVM reports LBR and extra_regs support, if the host has
support.
When the guest perf driver tries to access LBR or extra_regs MSR,
it #GPs all MSR accesses,since KVM doesn't handle LBR and extra_regs support.
So check the related MSRs access right once at initialization time to avoid
the error access at runtime.
For reproducing the issue, please build the kernel with CONFIG_KVM_INTEL = y
(for host kernel).
And CONFIG_PARAVIRT = n and CONFIG_KVM_GUEST = n (for guest kernel).
Start the guest with -cpu host.
Run perf record with --branch-any or --branch-filter in guest to trigger LBR
Run perf stat offcore events (E.g. LLC-loads/LLC-load-misses ...) in guest to
trigger offcore_rsp #GP

init_espfix_ap() is currently off by one level when informing hypervisor
that allocated pages will be used for ministacks' page tables.
The most immediate effect of this on a PV guest is that if
'stack_page = __get_free_page()' returns a non-zeroed-out page the hypervisor
will refuse to use it for a page table (which it shouldn't be anyway). This will
result in warnings by both Xen and Linux.
More importantly, a subsequent write to that page (again, by a PV guest) is
likely to result in fatal page fault.

Currently, any NMI is falsely handled by a NMI handler of NMI watchdog
if CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR is set.
For example, we use external NMI to make system panic to get crash
dump, but in this case, the external NMI is falsely handled do to the
issue.
This commit deals with the issue simply by ignoring CondChgd bit.
Here is explanation in detail.
On x86 NMI watchdog uses performance monitoring feature to
periodically signal NMI each time performance counter gets overflowed.
intel_pmu_handle_irq() is called as a NMI_LOCAL handler from a NMI
handler of NMI watchdog, perf_event_nmi_handler(). It identifies an
owner of a given NMI by looking at overflow status bits in
MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR. If some of the bits are set, then it
handles the given NMI as its own NMI.
The problem is that the intel_pmu_handle_irq() doesn't distinguish
CondChgd bit from other bits. Unlike the other status bits, CondChgd
bit doesn't represent overflow status for performance counters. Thus,
CondChgd bit cannot be thought of as a mark indicating a given NMI is
NMI watchdog's.
As a result, if CondChgd bit is set, any NMI is falsely handled by the
NMI handler of NMI watchdog. Also, if type of the falsely handled NMI
is either NMI_UNKNOWN, NMI_SERR or NMI_IO_CHECK, the corresponding
action is never performed until CondChgd bit is cleared.
I noticed this behavior on systems with Ivy Bridge processors: Intel
Xeon CPU E5-2630 v2 and Intel Xeon CPU E7-8890 v2. On both systems,
CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR has already been set
in the beginning at boot. Then the CondChgd bit is immediately cleared
by next wrmsr to MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR and appears to remain
0.
On the other hand, on older processors such as Nehalem, Xeon E7540,
CondChgd bit is not set in the beginning at boot.
I'm not sure about exact behavior of CondChgd bit, in particular when
this bit is set. Although I read Intel System Programmer's Manual to
figure out that, the descriptions I found are:
In 18.9.1:
"The MSR_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR also provides a ¡sticky bit¢ to
indicate changes to the state of performancmonitoring hardware"
In Table 35-2 IA-32 Architectural MSRs
63 CondChg: status bits of this register has changed.
These are different from the bahviour I see on the actual system as I
explained above.
At least, I think ignoring CondChgd bit should be enough for NMI
watchdog perspective.

Mauro reported that his AMD X2 using the powernow-k8 cpufreq driver
locked up when doing cpu hotplug.
Because we called set_cyc2ns_scale() from the time_cpufreq_notifier()
unconditionally, it gets called multiple times for each freq change,
instead of only the once, when the tsc_khz value actually changes.
Because it gets called more than once, we run out of cyc2ns data slots
and stall, waiting for a free one, but because we're half way offline,
there's no consumers to free slots.
By placing the call inside the condition that actually changes tsc_khz
we avoid superfluous calls and avoid the problem.

Sometimes it is preferred not to use the trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
routine when one wants to avoid capturing a back trace for current. For
instance if one was previously captured recently.
This patch provides a new routine namely
trigger_allbutself_cpu_backtrace() which offers the flexibility to issue
an NMI to every cpu but current and capture a back trace accordingly.
Patch x86 and sparc to support new routine.

This essentially reverts commit:
ecd50f714c42 ("kprobes, x86: Call exception_enter after kprobes handled")
since it causes build errors with CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING and
that has been made from misunderstandings;
context_track_user_*() don't involve much in interrupt context,
it just returns if in_interrupt() is true.
Instead of changing the do_debug/int3(), this just adds
context_track_user_*() to kprobes blacklist, since those are
still can be called right before kprobes handles int3 and debug
exceptions, and probing those will cause an infinite loop.

It came in very late, and already has one reported failure: Sitsofe
reports that the current tree fails to boot on his EeePC, and bisected
it down to this. Rather than waste time trying to figure out what's

Hang is observed on virtual machines during CPU hotplug,
especially in big guests with many CPUs. (It reproducible
more often if host is over-committed).
It happens because master CPU gives up waiting on
secondary CPU and allows it to run wild. As result
AP causes locking or crashing system. For example
as described here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/6/257
If master CPU have sent STARTUP IPI successfully,
and AP signalled to master CPU that it's ready
to start initialization, make master CPU wait
indefinitely till AP is onlined.
To ensure that AP won't ever run wild, make it
wait at early startup till master CPU confirms its
intention to wait for AP. If AP doesn't respond in 10
seconds, the master CPU will timeout and cancel
AP onlining.

Which is caused by the fact that generic_processor_info() allocates
logical CPU id by calling:
cpu = cpumask_next_zero(-1, cpu_present_mask);
which returns id of previously failed to wake up CPU, since its
bit is cleared by do_boot_cpu() and as result register_cpu()
tries to register another CPU with the same id as already
present but failed to be onlined CPU.
Taking in account that AP will not do anything if master CPU
failed to wake it up, there is no reason to mark that AP as not
present and break next cpu hotplug attempts. As a side effect of
not marking AP as not present, user would be allowed to online
it again later.
Also fix memory corruption in acpi_unmap_lsapic()
if during CPU hotplug master CPU failed to wake up AP
it set percpu x86_cpu_to_apicid to BAD_APICID=0xFFFF for AP.
However following attempt to unplug that CPU will lead to
out of bound write access to __apicid_to_node[] which is
32768 items long on x86_64 kernel.
So with above fix of cpu_present_mask make sure that a present
CPU has a valid APIC ID by not setting x86_cpu_to_apicid
to BAD_APICID in do_boot_cpu() on failure and allow
acpi_processor_remove()->acpi_unmap_lsapic() cleanly remove CPU.

Stuff in sysrq.c used to set it to 8 which is supposed to mean above
default level so set it to DEBUG instead as we're terminating/killing all
tasks and we want to be verbose there.
Also, correct the check in x86_64_start_kernel which should be >= as
we're clearly issuing the string there for all debug levels, not only

CONFIG_DMA_CMA is enabled
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() firstly attempts to allocate by
dma_alloc_from_contiguous() if CONFIG_DMA_CMA is enabled. But the
memory region allocated by it may not fit within the device's DMA mask.
This change makes it fall back to usual alloc_pages_node() allocation
for such cases.

Currently, "cma=" kernel parameter is used to specify the size of CMA,
but we can't specify where it is located. We want to locate CMA below
4GB for devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems
without iommu.
This enables to specify the placement of CMA by extending "cma=" kernel
parameter.
Examples:
1. locate 64MB CMA below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G"
2. locate 64MB CMA exact at 512MB by "cma=64M@512M"
Note that the DMA contiguous memory allocator on x86 assumes that
page_address() works for the pages to allocate. So this change requires
to limit end address of contiguous memory area upto max_pfn_mapped to
prevent from locating it on highmem area by the argument of
dma_contiguous_reserve().

The DMA Contiguous Memory Allocator support on x86 is disabled when
swiotlb config option is enabled. So DMA CMA is always disabled on
x86_64 because swiotlb is always enabled. This attempts to support for
DMA CMA with enabling swiotlb config option.
The contiguous memory allocator on x86 is integrated in the function
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() which is .alloc callback in nommu_dma_ops
for dma_alloc_coherent().
x86_swiotlb_alloc_coherent() which is .alloc callback in swiotlb_dma_ops
tries to allocate with dma_generic_alloc_coherent() firstly and then
swiotlb_alloc_coherent() is called as a fallback.
The main part of supporting DMA CMA with swiotlb is that changing
x86_swiotlb_free_coherent() which is .free callback in swiotlb_dma_ops
for dma_free_coherent() so that it can distinguish memory allocated by
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() from one allocated by
swiotlb_alloc_coherent() and release it with dma_generic_free_coherent()
which can handle contiguous memory. This change requires making
is_swiotlb_buffer() global function.
This also needs to change .free callback in the dma_map_ops for amd_gart
and sta2x11, because these dma_ops are also using
dma_generic_alloc_coherent().

big contiguous memory with dma_alloc_coherent() and tell it to the device
that requires it, regardless of which dma mapping implementation is
actually used in the system.
So this makes it work with swiotlb and intel-iommu dma_map_ops, too. And
this also extends "cma=" kernel parameter to specify placement constraint
by the physical address range of memory allocations. For example, CMA
allocates memory below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G", it is required for the
devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems without iommu.
This patch (of 5):
Calling dma_alloc_coherent() with __GFP_ZERO must return zeroed memory.
But when the contiguous memory allocator (CMA) is enabled on x86 and the
memory region is allocated by dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), it doesn't
return zeroed memory. Because dma_generic_alloc_coherent() forgot to fill
the memory region with zero if it was allocated by
dma_alloc_from_contiguous()
Most implementations of dma_alloc_coherent() return zeroed memory
regardless of whether __GFP_ZERO is specified. So this fixes it by
unconditionally zeroing the allocated memory region.
Alternatively, we could fix dma_alloc_from_contiguous() to return zeroed
out memory and remove memset() from all caller of it. But we can't simply
remove the memset on arm because __dma_clear_buffer() is used there for
ensuring cache flushing and it is used in many places. Of course we can
do redundant memset in dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), but I think this patch
is less impact for fixing this problem.

Pull core irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq department delivers:
- Another tree wide update to get rid of the horrible create_irq
interface along with its even more horrible variants. That also
gets rid of the last leftovers of the initial sparse irq hackery.
arch/driver specific changes have been either acked or ignored.
- A fix for the spurious interrupt detection logic with threaded
interrupts.
- A new ARM SoC interrupt controller
- The usual pile of fixes and improvements all over the place"
