Some arches may want to dynamically populate the table using regular expressions on the instruction names to associate them with a set of parsing/formatting/etc functions (struct ins_ops), so provide a fallback for when the ins__find() method fails. That fall back will be able to resize the arch->instructions, setting arch->nr_instructions appropriately, helper functions to associate an ins_ops to an instruction name, growing the arch->instructions if needed and resorting it are provided, all the arch specific callback needs to do is to decide if the missing instruction should be added to arch->instructions with a ins_ops association.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
The disasm_line::name field is always equal to ins::name, being used just to locate the instruction's ins_ops from the per-arch instructions table. Eliminate this duplication, nuking that field and instead make ins__find() return an ins_ops, store it in disasm_line::ins.ops, and keep just in disasm_line::ins.name what was in disasm_line::name, this way we end up not keeping a reference to entries in the per-arch instructions table. This in turn will help supporting multiple ways to manage the per-arch instructions table, allowing resorting that array, for instance, when the entries will move after references to its addresses were made. The same problem is avoided when one grows the array with realloc. So architectures simply keeping a constant array will work as well as architectures building the table using regular expressions or other logic that involves resorting the table. Reviewed-by:

Pull arch/tile bugfix from Chris Metcalf: "This fixes a bug that causes reboots after 208 days of uptime :-)" * 'stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: avoid using clocksource_cyc2ns with absolute cycle count
-
Chris Metcalf authored
For large values of "mult" and long uptimes, the intermediate result of "cycles * mult" can overflow 64 bits. For example, the tile platform calls clocksource_cyc2ns with a 1.2 GHz clock; we have mult = 853, and after 208.5 days, we overflow 64 bits. Since clocksource_cyc2ns() is intended to be used for relative cycle counts, not absolute cycle counts, performance is more importance than accepting a wider range of cycle values. So, just use mult_frac() directly in tile's sched_clock(). Commit 4cecf6d4 ("sched, x86: Avoid unnecessary overflow in sched_clock") by Salman Qazi results in essentially the same generated code for x86 as this change does for tile. In fact, a follow-on change by Salman introduced mult_frac() and switched to using it, so the C code was largely identical at that point too. Peter Zijlstra then added mul_u64_u32_shr() and switched x86 to use it. This is, in principle, better; by optimizing the 64x64->64 multiplies to be 32x32->64 multiplies we can potentially save some time. However, the compiler piplines the 64x64->64 multiplies pretty well, and the conditional branch in the generic mul_u64_u32_shr() causes some bubbles in execution, with the result that it's pretty much a wash. If tilegx provided its own implementation of mul_u64_u32_shr() without the conditional branch, we could potentially save 3 cycles, but that seems like small gain for a fair amount of additional build scaffolding; no other platform currently provides a mul_u64_u32_shr() override, and tile doesn't currently have an <asm/div64.h> header to put the override in. Additionally, gcc currently has an optimization bug that prevents it from recognizing the opportunity to use a 32x32->64 multiply, and so the result would be no better than the existing mult_frac() until such time as the compiler is fixed. For now, just using mult_frac() seems like the right answer. Cc: stable@kernel.org [v3.4+] Signed-off-by:

A correct bugfix introduced a harmless warning that shows up with gcc-7: fs/nfs/callback.c: In function 'nfs_callback_up': fs/nfs/callback.c:214:14: error: array subscript is outside array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds] What happens here is that the 'minorversion == 0' check tells the compiler that we assume minorversion can be something other than 0, but when CONFIG_NFS_V4_1 is disabled that would be invalid and result in an out-of-bounds access. The added check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NFS_V4_1) tells gcc that this really can't happen, which makes the code slightly smaller and also avoids the warning. The bugfix that introduced the warning is marked for stable backports, we want this one backported to the same releases.

Group validation expects all events to be of the same PMU; however is_uncore_pmu() is too wide, it matches _all_ uncore events, even across PMUs. This triggers failure when we group different events from different uncore PMUs, like: perf stat -vv -e '{uncore_cbox_0/config=0x0334/,uncore_qpi_0/event=1/}' -a sleep 1 Fix is_uncore_pmu() by only matching events to the box at hand. Note that generic code; ran after this step; will disallow this mixture of PMU events.

Vince Weaver reported that perf_fuzzer + KASAN detects that PEBS event unwinds sometimes do 'weird' things. In particular, we seemed to be ending up unwinding from random places on the NMI stack. While it was somewhat expected that the event record BP,SP would not match the interrupt BP,SP in that the interrupt is strictly later than the record event, it was overlooked that it could be on an already overwritten stack. Therefore, don't copy the recorded BP,SP over the interrupted BP,SP when we need stack unwinds. Note that its still possible the unwind doesn't full match the actual event, as its entirely possible to have done an (I)RET between record and interrupt, but on average it should still point in the general direction of where the event came from. Also, it's the best we can do, considering. The particular scenario that triggered the bogus NMI stack unwind was a PEBS event with very short period, upon enabling the event at the tail of the PMI handler (FREEZE_ON_PMI is not used), it instantly triggers a record (while still on the NMI stack) which in turn triggers the next PMI. This then causes back-to-back NMIs and we'll try and unwind the stack-frame from the last NMI, which obviously is now overwritten by our own. Analyzed-by:

We are getting NMIs when __probe_kernel_read() has switched to KERNEL_DS, and then see vmalloc faults when we access what looks like pointers into vmalloc space: [] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3685731 at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:435 vmalloc_fault+0x289/0x290 [] CPU: 3 PID: 3685731 Comm: sh Tainted: G W 4.6.0-5_fbk1_223_gdbf0f40 #1 [] Call Trace: [] <NMI> [<ffffffff814717d1>] dump_stack+0x4d/0x6c [] [<ffffffff81076e43>] __warn+0xd3/0xf0 [] [<ffffffff81076f2d>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20 [] [<ffffffff8104a899>] vmalloc_fault+0x289/0x290 [] [<ffffffff8104b5a0>] __do_page_fault+0x330/0x490 [] [<ffffffff8104b70c>] do_page_fault+0xc/0x10 [] [<ffffffff81794e82>] page_fault+0x22/0x30 [] [<ffffffff81006280>] ? perf_callchain_user+0x100/0x2a0 [] [<ffffffff8115124f>] get_perf_callchain+0x17f/0x190 [] [<ffffffff811512c7>] perf_callchain+0x67/0x80 [] [<ffffffff8114e750>] perf_prepare_sample+0x2a0/0x370 [] [<ffffffff8114e840>] perf_event_output+0x20/0x60 [] [<ffffffff8114aee7>] ? perf_event_update_userpage+0xc7/0x130 [] [<ffffffff8114ea01>] __perf_event_overflow+0x181/0x1d0 [] [<ffffffff8114f484>] perf_event_overflow+0x14/0x20 [] [<ffffffff8100a6e3>] intel_pmu_handle_irq+0x1d3/0x490 [] [<ffffffff8147daf7>] ? copy_user_enhanced_fast_string+0x7/0x10 [] [<ffffffff81197191>] ? vunmap_page_range+0x1a1/0x2f0 [] [<ffffffff811972f1>] ? unmap_kernel_range_noflush+0x11/0x20 [] [<ffffffff814f2056>] ? ghes_copy_tofrom_phys+0x116/0x1f0 [] [<ffffffff81040d1d>] ? x2apic_send_IPI_self+0x1d/0x20 [] [<ffffffff8100411d>] perf_event_nmi_handler+0x2d/0x50 [] [<ffffffff8101ea31>] nmi_handle+0x61/0x110 [] [<ffffffff8101ef94>] default_do_nmi+0x44/0x110 [] [<ffffffff8101f13b>] do_nmi+0xdb/0x150 [] [<ffffffff81795187>] end_repeat_nmi+0x1a/0x1e [] [<ffffffff8147daf7>] ? copy_user_enhanced_fast_string+0x7/0x10 [] [<ffffffff8147daf7>] ? copy_user_enhanced_fast_string+0x7/0x10 [] [<ffffffff8147daf7>] ? copy_user_enhanced_fast_string+0x7/0x10 [] <<EOE>> <IRQ> [<ffffffff8115d05e>] ? __probe_kernel_read+0x3e/0xa0 Fix this by moving the valid_user_frame() check to before the uaccess that loads the return address and the pointer to the next frame.

Exactly because for_each_thread() in autogroup_move_group() can't see it and update its ->sched_task_group before _put() and possibly free(). So the exiting task needs another sched_move_task() before exit_notify() and we need to re-introduce the PF_EXITING (or similar) check removed by the previous change for another reason.

The PF_EXITING check in task_wants_autogroup() is no longer needed. Remove it, but see the next patch. However the comment is correct in that autogroup_move_group() must always change task_group() for every thread so the sysctl_ check is very wrong; we can race with cgroups and even sys_setsid() is not safe because a task running with task_group() == ag->tg must participate in refcounting: int main(void) { int sctl = open("/proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled", O_WRONLY); assert(sctl > 0); if (fork()) { wait(NULL); // destroy the child's ag/tg pause(); } assert(pwrite(sctl, "1\n", 2, 0) == 2); assert(setsid() > 0); if (fork()) pause(); kill(getppid(), SIGKILL); sleep(1); // The child has gone, the grandchild runs with kref == 1 assert(pwrite(sctl, "0\n", 2, 0) == 2); assert(setsid() > 0); // runs with the freed ag/tg for (;;) sleep(1); return 0; } crashes the kernel. It doesn't really need sleep(1), it doesn't matter if autogroup_move_group() actually frees the task_group or this happens later. Reported-by:Vern Lovejoy <vlovejoy@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

The aliasing check in map_and_copy is no longer necessary because the IPsec ESP code no longer provides an IV that points into the actual request data. As this check is now triggering BUG checks due to the vmalloced stack code, I'm removing it. Reported-by:

Recently an init call was added to hash_recvmsg so as to reset the hash state in case a sendmsg call was never made. Unfortunately this ended up clobbering the result if the previous sendmsg was done with a MSG_MORE flag. This patch fixes it by excluding that case when we make the init call.

Pull sparc fixes from David Miller: 1) With modern networking cards we can run out of 32-bit DMA space, so support 64-bit DMA addressing when possible on sparc64. From Dave Tushar. 2) Some signal frame validation checks are inverted on sparc32, fix from Andreas Larsson. 3) Lockdep tables can get too large in some circumstances on sparc64, add a way to adjust the size a bit. From Babu Moger. 4) Fix NUMA node probing on some sun4v systems, from Thomas Tai. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc: sparc: drop duplicate header scatterlist.h lockdep: Limit static allocations if PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL is defined config: Adding the new config parameter CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL for sparc sunbmac: Fix compiler warning sunqe: Fix compiler warnings sparc64: Enable 64-bit DMA sparc64: Enable sun4v dma ops to use IOMMU v2 APIs sparc64: Bind PCIe devices to use IOMMU v2 service sparc64: Initialize iommu_map_table and iommu_pool sparc64: Add ATU (new IOMMU) support sparc64: Add FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER and default to 13 sparc64: fix compile warning section mismatch in find_node() sparc32: Fix inverted invalid_frame_pointer checks on sigreturns sparc64: Fix find_node warning if numa node cannot be found
