      locking/core, s390: Make cpu_relax() a barrier again · 22b6430d
      Christian Borntraeger authored
      stop_machine() seemed to be the only important place for yielding during
      cpu_relax(). This was fixed by using cpu_relax_yield().
      
      Therefore, we can now redefine cpu_relax() to be a barrier instead on s390,
      making s390 identical to all other architectures.

      locking/core, stop_machine: Yield the CPU during stop machine() · bf0d31c0
      Christian Borntraeger authored
      Some time ago the following commit:
      
        57f2ffe1 ("s390: remove diag 44 calls from cpu_relax()")
      
      ... stopped cpu_relax() on s390 yielding to the hypervisor.
      
      As it turns out this made stop_machine() run really slow on virtualized
      overcommited systems. For example the kprobes test during bootup took
      several seconds instead of just running unnoticed with large guests.
      
      Therefore, yielding was reintroduced with commit:
      
        4d92f502 ("s390: reintroduce diag 44 calls for cpu_relax()")
      
      ... but in fact the stop machine code seems to be the only place where
      this yielding was really necessary. This place is probably the most
      important one as it makes all but one guest CPUs wait for one guest CPU.
      
      As we now have cpu_relax_yield(), we can use this in multi_cpu_stop().
      For now lets only add it here. We can add it later in other places
      when necessary.

      locking/core: Introduce cpu_relax_yield() · 79ab11cd
      Christian Borntraeger authored
      For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
      For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
      some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
      For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
      towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
      On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
      hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
      In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
      In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
      "cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
      and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
      that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
      latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

      locking/mutex, drm: Introduce mutex_trylock_recursive() · 0f5225b0
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      By popular DRM demand, introduce mutex_trylock_recursive() to fix up the
      two GEM users.
      
      Without this it is very easy for these drivers to get stuck in
      low-memory situations and trigger OOM. Work is in progress to remove the
      need for this in at least i915.

      iommu/arm-smmu: Fix out-of-bounds dereference · 8c82d6ec
      Robin Murphy authored
      When we iterate a master's config entries, what we generally care
      about is the entry's stream map index, rather than the entry index
      itself, so it's nice to have the iterator automatically assign the
      former from the latter. Unfortunately, booting with KASAN reveals
      the oversight that using a simple comma operator results in the
      entry index being dereferenced before being checked for validity,
      so we always access one element past the end of the fwspec array.
      
      Flip things around so that the check always happens before the index
      may be dereferenced.

      Robin Murphy authored
      We now delay installing our per-bus iommu_ops until we know an SMMU has
      successfully probed, as they don't serve much purpose beforehand, and
      doing so also avoids fights between multiple IOMMU drivers in a single
      kernel. However, the upshot of passing the return value of bus_set_iommu()
      back from our probe function is that if there happens to be more than
      one SMMUv3 device in a system, the second and subsequent probes will
      wind up returning -EBUSY to the driver core and getting torn down again.
      
      Avoid re-setting ops if ours are already installed, so that any genuine
      failures stand out.

      iommu/arm-smmu: Work around ARM DMA configuration · fba4f8e5
      Robin Murphy authored
      The 32-bit ARM DMA configuration code predates the IOMMU core's default
      domain functionality, and instead relies on allocating its own domains
      and attaching any devices using the generic IOMMU binding to them.
      Unfortunately, it does this relatively early on in the creation of the
      device, before we've seen our add_device callback, which leads us to
      attempt to operate on a half-configured master.
      
      To avoid a crash, check for this situation on attach, but refuse to
      play, as there's nothing we can do. This at least allows VFIO to keep
      working for people who update their 32-bit DTs to the generic binding,
      albeit with a few (innocuous) warnings from the DMA layer on boot.

      ALSA: info: Return error for invalid read/write · 6809cd68
      Takashi Iwai authored
      Currently the ALSA proc handler allows read or write even if the proc
      file were write-only or read-only.  It's mostly harmless, does thing
      but allocating memory and ignores the input/output.  But it doesn't
      tell user about the invalid use, and it's confusing and inconsistent
      in comparison with other proc files.
      
      This patch adds some sanity checks and let the proc handler returning

      Takashi Iwai authored
      The ALSA proc handler allows currently the write in the unlimited size
      until kmalloc() fails.  But basically the write is supposed to be only
      for small inputs, mostly for one line inputs, and we don't have to
      handle too large sizes at all.  Since the kmalloc error results in the
      kernel warning, it's better to limit the size beforehand.
      
      This patch adds the limit of 16kB, which must be large enough for the
      currently existing code.

      percpu: use notrace variant of preempt_disable/preempt_enable · 7f8d61f0
      Heiko Carstens authored
      Commit 345ddcc8 ("ftrace: Have set_ftrace_pid use the bitmap like
      events do") added a couple of this_cpu_read calls to the ftrace code.
      
      On x86 this is not a problem, since it has single instructions to read
      percpu data. Other architectures which use the generic variant now
      have additional preempt_disable and preempt_enable calls in the core
      ftrace code. This may lead to recursive calls and in result to a dead
      machine, e.g. if preemption and debugging options are enabled.
      
      To fix this use the notrace variant of preempt_disable and
      preempt_enable within the generic percpu code.
