If more than 1024 event channels are bound to a evtchn device then it possible (even with well behaved applications) for the ring to overflow and events to be lost (reported as an -EFBIG error). Dynamically increase the size of the ring so there is always enough space for all bound events. Well behaved applicables that only unmask events after draining them from the ring can thus no longer lose events. However, an application could unmask an event before draining it, allowing multiple entries per port to accumulate in the ring, and a overflow could still occur. So the overflow detection and reporting is retained. The ring size is initially only 64 entries so the common use case of an application only binding a few events will use less memory than before. The ring size may grow to 512 KiB (enough for all 2^17 possible channels). This order 7 kmalloc() may fail due to memory fragmentation, so we fall back to trying vmalloc().

Even though initcall return values are typically ignored, the prototype is to return 0 on success or a negative errno value on error.

Add NULL return value checks to two invocations of early_memremap() in the UEFI init code. For the UEFI configuration tables, we just warn since we have a better chance of being able to report the issue in a way that can actually be noticed by a human operator if we don't abort right away. For the UEFI memory map, however, all we can do is panic() since we cannot proceed without a description of memory.

Doing so will cause the grant to be unmapped and then, during fault handling, the fault to be mistakenly treated as NUMA hint fault. In addition, even if those maps could partcipate in NUMA balancing, it wouldn't provide any benefit since we are unable to determine physical page's node (even if/when VNUMA is implemented). Marking grant maps' VMAs as VM_IO will exclude them from being part of NUMA balancing.

This reverts commit 348a65cd. Incorrect page table manipulation that does not respect the ARM ARM recommended break-before-make sequence may lead to TLB conflicts. The contiguous PTE patch makes the system even more susceptible to such errors by changing the mapping from a single page to a contiguous range of pages. An additional TLB invalidation would reduce the risk window, however, the correct fix is to switch to a temporary swapper_pg_dir. Once the correct workaround is done, the reverted commit will be re-applied. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Reported-by: Jeremy Linton <jeremy.linton@arm.com>

Under some unusual context-switching patterns, it is possible to end up with multiple threads from the same mm running concurrently with different ASIDs: 1. CPU x schedules task t with mm p containing ASID a and generation g This task doesn't block and the CPU doesn't context switch. So: * per_cpu(active_asid, x) = {g,a} * p->context.id = {g,a} 2. Some other CPU generates an ASID rollover. The global generation is now (g + 1). CPU x is still running t, with no context switch and so per_cpu(reserved_asid, x) = {g,a} 3. CPU y schedules task t', which shares mm p with t. The generation mismatches, so we take the slowpath and hit the reserved ASID from CPU x. p is then updated so that p->context.id = {g + 1,a} 4. CPU y schedules some other task u, which has an mm != p. 5. Some other CPU generates *another* CPU rollover. The global generation is now (g + 2). CPU x is still running t, with no context switch and so per_cpu(reserved_asid, x) = {g,a}. 6. CPU y once again schedules task t', but now *fails* to hit the reserved ASID from CPU x because of the generation mismatch. This results in a new ASID being allocated, despite the fact that t is still running on CPU x with the same mm. Consequently, TLBIs (e.g. as a result of CoW) will not be synchronised between the two threads. This patch fixes the problem by updating all of the matching reserved ASIDs when we hit on the slowpath (i.e. in step 3 above). This keeps the reserved ASIDs in-sync with the mm and avoids the problem.

Pull more block layer fixes from Jens Axboe: "I wasn't going to send off a new pull before next week, but the blk flush fix from Jan from the other day introduced a regression. It's rare enough not to have hit during testing, since it requires both a device that rejects the first flush, and bad timing while it does that. But since someone did hit it, let's get the revert into 4.4-rc3 so we don't have a released rc with that known issue. Apart from that revert, three other fixes: - From Christoph, a fix for a missing unmap in NVMe request preparation. - An NVMe fix from Nishanth that fixes data corruption on powerpc. - Also from Christoph, fix a list_del() attempt on blk-mq that didn't have a matching list_add() at timer start" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: Revert "blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not required" block: fix blk_abort_request for blk-mq drivers nvme: add missing unmaps in nvme_queue_rq NVMe: default to 4k device page size

This reverts commit 1b2ff19e. Jan writes: -- Thanks for report! After some investigation I found out we allocate elevator specific data in __get_request() only for non-flush requests. And this is actually required since the flush machinery uses the space in struct request for something else. Doh. So my patch is just wrong and not easy to fix since at the time __get_request() is called we are not sure whether the flush machinery will be used in the end. Jens, please revert 1b2ff19e. Thanks! I'm somewhat surprised that you can reliably hit the race where flushing gets disabled for the device just while the request is in flight. But I guess during boot it makes some sense. -- So let's just revert it, we can fix the queue run manually after the fact. This race is rare enough that it didn't trigger in testing, it requires the specific disable-while-in-flight scenario to trigger.

The kernel may use a page granularity of 4K, 16K, or 64K depending on configuration. When mapping EFI runtime regions, we use memrange_efi_to_native to round the physical base address of a region down to a kernel page boundary, and round the size up to a kernel page boundary, adding the residue left over from rounding down the physical base address. We do not round down the virtual base address. In __create_mapping we account for the offset of the virtual base from a granule boundary, adding the residue to the size before rounding the base down to said granule boundary. Thus we account for the residue twice, and when the residue is non-zero will cause __create_mapping to map an additional page at the end of the region. Depending on the memory map, this page may be in a region we are not intended/permitted to map, or may clash with a different region that we wish to map. In typical cases, mapping the next item in the memory map will overwrite the erroneously created entry, as we sort the memory map in the stub. As __create_mapping can cope with base addresses which are not page aligned, we can instead rely on it to map the region appropriately, and simplify efi_virtmap_init by removing the unnecessary code.

As reported by Michal Simek, building an ARM64 kernel with CONFIG_UID16 disabled currently fails because the system call table still needs to reference the individual function entry points that are provided by kernel/sys_ni.c in this case, and the declarations are hidden inside of #ifdef CONFIG_UID16: arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:57:8: error: 'sys_lchown16' undeclared here (not in a function) __SYSCALL(__NR_lchown, sys_lchown16) I believe this problem only exists on ARM64, because older architectures tend to not need declarations when their system call table is built in assembly code, while newer architectures tend to not need UID16 support. ARM64 only uses these system calls for compatibility with 32-bit ARM binaries. This changes the CONFIG_UID16 check into CONFIG_HAVE_UID16, which is set unconditionally on ARM64 with CONFIG_COMPAT, so we see the declarations whenever we need them, but otherwise the behavior is unchanged.

This patch removes the vpid check when emulating nested invvpid instruction of type all-contexts invalidation. The existing code is incorrect because: (1) According to Intel SDM Vol 3, Section "INVVPID - Invalidate Translations Based on VPID", invvpid instruction does not check vpid in the invvpid descriptor when its type is all-contexts invalidation. (2) According to the same document, invvpid of type all-contexts invalidation does not require there is an active VMCS, so/and get_vmcs12() in the existing code may result in a NULL-pointer dereference. In practice, it can crash both KVM itself and L1 hypervisors that use invvpid (e.g. Xen). Signed-off-by: Haozhong Zhang <haozhong.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Nishanth Aravamudan authored
We received a bug report recently when DDW (64-bit direct DMA on Power) is not enabled for NVMe devices. In that case, we fall back to 32-bit DMA via the IOMMU, which is always done via 4K TCEs (Translation Control Entries). The NVMe device driver, though, assumes that the DMA alignment for the PRP entries will match the device's page size, and that the DMA aligment matches the kernel's page aligment. On Power, the the IOMMU page size, as mentioned above, can be 4K, while the device can have a page size of 8K, while the kernel has a page size of 64K. This eventually trips the BUG_ON in nvme_setup_prps(), as we have a 'dma_len' that is a multiple of 4K but not 8K (e.g., 0xF000). In this particular case of page sizes, we clearly want to use the IOMMU's page size in the driver. And generally, the NVMe driver in this function should be using the IOMMU's page size for the default device page size, rather than the kernel's page size. There is not currently an API to obtain the IOMMU's page size across all architectures and in the interest of a stop-gap fix to this functional issue, default the NVMe device page size to 4K, with the intent of adding such an API and implementation across all architectures in the next merge window. With the functionally equivalent v3 of this patch, our hardware test exerciser survives when using 32-bit DMA; without the patch, the kernel will BUG within a few minutes.

This looks a little bigger than it is, but that's mainly because we pushed the lightnvm enabled null_blk change out of the merge window so it could be updated a bit. The rest of the volume is also mostly lightnvm. In particular: - Lightnvm. Various fixes, additions, updates from Matias and Javier, as well as from Wenwei Tao. - NVMe: - Fix for potential arithmetic overflow from Keith. - Also from Keith, ensure that we reap pending completions from a completion queue before deleting it. Fixes kernel crashes when resetting a device with IO pending. - Various little lightnvm related tweaks from Matias. - Fixup flushes to go through the IO scheduler, for the cases where a flush is not required. Fixes a case in CFQ where we would be idling and not see this request, hence not break the idling. From Jan Kara. - Use list_{first,prev,next} in elevator.c for cleaner code. From Gelian Tang. - Fix for a warning trigger on btrfs and raid on single queue blk-mq devices, where we would flush plug callbacks with preemption disabled. From me. - A mac partition validation fix from Kees Cook. - Two merge fixes from Ming, marked stable. A third part is adding a new warning so we'll notice this quicker in the future, if we screw up the accounting. - Cleanup of thread name/creation in mtip32xx from Rasmus Villemoes" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (32 commits) blk-merge: warn if figured out segment number is bigger than nr_phys_segments blk-merge: fix blk_bio_segment_split block: fix segment split blk-mq: fix calling unplug callbacks with preempt disabled mac: validate mac_partition is within sector mtip32xx: use formatting capability of kthread_create_on_node NVMe: reap completion entries when deleting queue lightnvm: add free and bad lun info to show luns lightnvm: keep track of block counts nvme: lightnvm: use admin queues for admin cmds lightnvm: missing free on init error lightnvm: wrong return value and redundant free null_blk: do not del gendisk with lightnvm null_blk: use device addressing mode null_blk: use ppa_cache pool NVMe: Fix possible arithmetic overflow for max segments blk-flush: Queue through IO scheduler when flush not required null_blk: register as a LightNVM device elevator: use list_{first,prev,next}_entry lightnvm: cleanup queue before target removal ...

If we call __kvm_hyp_panic while a guest context is active, we call __restore_sysregs before acquiring the system register values for the panic, in the process throwing away the PAR_EL1 value at the point of the panic. This patch modifies __kvm_hyp_panic to stash the PAR_EL1 value prior to restoring host register values, enabling us to report the original values at the point of the panic.

Currently __kvm_hyp_panic uses %p for values which are not pointers, such as the ESR value. This can confusingly lead to "(null)" being printed for the value. Use %x instead, and only use %p for host pointers.
