virtio_console uses a small DMA buffer for control requests. Move that buffer into heap memory. Doing virtio DMA on the stack is normally okay on non-DMA-API virtio systems (which is currently most of them), but it breaks completely if the stack is virtually mapped (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y). Tested by typing both directions using picocom aimed at /dev/hvc0.

If we get a page fault indicating kernel stack overflow, invoke handle_stack_overflow(). To prevent us from overflowing the stack again while handling the overflow (because we are likely to have very little stack space left), call handle_stack_overflow() on the double-fault stack.

thread_saved_pc() was using a completely bogus method to get the return address. Since switch_to() was previously inlined, there was no sane way to know where on the stack the return address was stored. Now with the frame of a sleeping thread well defined, this can be implemented correctly.

Move the low-level context switch code to an out-of-line asm stub instead of using complex inline asm. This allows constructing a new stack frame for the child process to make it seamlessly flow to ret_from_fork without an extra test and branch in __switch_to(). It also improves code generation for __schedule() by using the C calling convention instead of clobbering all registers.

When function graph tracing is enabled for a function, its return address on the stack is replaced with the address of an ftrace handler (return_to_handler). Currently 'return_to_handler' can be reported as reliable. That's not ideal, and can actually be misleading. When saving or dumping the stack, you normally only care about what led up to that point (the call path), rather than what will happen in the future (the return path). That's especially true in the non-oops stack trace case, which isn't used for debugging. For example, in a perf profiling operation, reporting return_to_handler() in the trace would just be confusing. And in the oops case, where debugging is important, "unreliable" is also more appropriate there because it serves as a hint that graph tracing was involved, instead of trying to imply that return_to_handler() was the real caller.

When function graph tracing is enabled for a function, ftrace modifies the stack by replacing the original return address with the address of a hook function (return_to_handler). Stack unwinders need a way to get the original return address. Add an arch-independent helper function for that named ftrace_graph_ret_addr(). This adds two variations of the function: one depends on HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR, and the other relies on an index state variable. The former is recommended because, in some cases, the latter can cause problems when the unwinder skips stack frames. It can get out of sync with the ret_stack index and wrong addresses can be reported for the stack trace. Once all arches have been ported to use HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR, we can get rid of the distinction.

Storing this value will help prevent unwinders from getting out of sync with the function graph tracer ret_stack. Now instead of needing a stateful iterator, they can compare the return address pointer to find the right ret_stack entry. Note that an array of 50 ftrace_ret_stack structs is allocated for every task. So when an arch implements this, it will add either 200 or 400 bytes of memory usage per task (depending on whether it's a 32-bit or 64-bit platform).

This allows x86_64 kernels to enable vmapped stacks by setting HAVE_ARCH_VMAP_STACK=y - which enables the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y high level Kconfig option. There are a couple of interesting bits: First, x86 lazily faults in top-level paging entries for the vmalloc area. This won't work if we get a page fault while trying to access the stack: the CPU will promote it to a double-fault and we'll die. To avoid this problem, probe the new stack when switching stacks and forcibly populate the pgd entry for the stack when switching mms. Second, once we have guard pages around the stack, we'll want to detect and handle stack overflow. I didn't enable it on x86_32. We'd need to rework the double-fault code a bit and I'm concerned about running out of vmalloc virtual addresses under some workloads. This patch, by itself, will behave somewhat erratically when the stack overflows while RSP is still more than a few tens of bytes above the bottom of the stack. Specifically, we'll get #PF and make it to no_context and them oops without reliably triggering a double-fault, and no_context doesn't know about stack overflows. The next patch will improve that case. Thank you to Nadav and Brian for helping me pay enough attention to the SDM to hopefully get this right.

If we're using CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y and we manage to point an sg entry at the stack, then either the sg page will be in highmem or sg_virt() will return the direct-map alias. In neither case will the existing check_for_stack() implementation realize that it's a stack page. Fix it by explicitly checking for stack pages. This has no effect by itself. It's broken out for ease of review.

If CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y is selected, kernel stacks are allocated with __vmalloc_node_range(). Grsecurity has had a similar feature (called GRKERNSEC_KSTACKOVERFLOW=y) for a long time.

The comment probably meant some old AMD64 incarnation which most likely never saw the light of day. STAR and LSTAR are two different registers and STAR sets CS/SS(DS) selectors for *all* modes, not only 32-bit. So simply remove that comment.

Pull two parisc fixes from Helge Deller: "The first patch ensures that the high-res cr16 clocksource (which was added in kernel 4.7) gets choosen as default clocksource for parisc. The second patch moves the #define of EREFUSED down inside errno.h and thus unbreaks building the gccgo compiler" * 'parisc-4.8-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Fix order of EREFUSED define in errno.h parisc: Fix automatic selection of cr16 clocksource

This is an entirely new driver instead of yet another set of patches to sb_edac.c because: 1) Mapping from PCI devices to socket/memory controller is significantly different. Skylake scatters devices on a socket across a number of PCI buses. 2) There is an extra level of interleaving via the "mcroute" register that would be a little messy to squeeze into the old driver. 3) Validation is getting too expensive. Changes to sb_edac need to be checked against Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, Broadwell and Knights Landing.

When building gccgo in userspace, errno.h gets parsed and the go include file sysinfo.go is generated. Since EREFUSED is defined to the same value as ECONNREFUSED, and ECONNREFUSED is defined later on in errno.h, this leads to go complaining that EREFUSED isn't defined yet. Fix this trivial problem by moving the define of EREFUSED down after ECONNREFUSED in errno.h (and clean up the indenting while touching this line).

Commit 54b66800 (parisc: Add native high-resolution sched_clock() implementation) added support to use the CPU-internal cr16 counters as reliable clocksource with the help of HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK. Sadly the commit missed to remove the hack which prevented cr16 to become the default clocksource even on SMP systems. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.7+

The kernel test robot reported a usercopy failure in the new hardened sanity checks, due to a page-crossing copy of the FPU state into the task structure. This happened because the kernel test robot was testing with SLOB, which doesn't actually do the required book-keeping for slab allocations, and as a result the hardening code didn't realize that the task struct allocation was one single allocation - and the sanity checks fail. Since SLOB doesn't even claim to support hardening (and you really shouldn't use it), the straightforward solution is to just make the usercopy hardening code depend on the allocator supporting it.
