It was historically possible to have two concurrent TLB flushes targetting the same CPU: one initiated locally and one initiated remotely. This can now cause an OOPS in leave_mm() at arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:47: if (this_cpu_read(cpu_tlbstate.state) == TLBSTATE_OK) BUG(); with this call trace: flush_tlb_func_local arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:239 [inline] flush_tlb_mm_range+0x26d/0x370 arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:317 Without reentrancy, this OOPS is impossible: leave_mm() is only called if we're not in TLBSTATE_OK, but then we're unexpectedly in TLBSTATE_OK in leave_mm(). This can be caused by flush_tlb_func_remote() happening between the two checks and calling leave_mm(), resulting in two consecutive leave_mm() calls on the same CPU with no intervening switch_mm() calls. We never saw this OOPS before because the old leave_mm() implementation didn't put us back in TLBSTATE_OK, so the assertion didn't fire. Nadav noticed the reentrancy issue in a different context, but neither of us realized that it caused a problem yet. Reported-by:

KASLR uses hack to detect whether we booted via startup_32() or startup_64(): it checks what is loaded into cr3 and compares it to _pgtables. _pgtables is the array of page tables where early code allocates page table from. KASLR expects cr3 to point to _pgtables if we booted via startup_32(), but that's not true if we booted with 5-level paging enabled. In this case top level page table is allocated separately and only the first p4d page table is allocated from the array. Let's modify the check to cover both 4- and 5-level paging cases. The patch also renames 'level4p' to 'top_level_pgt' as it now can hold page table for 4th or 5th level, depending on configuration. Signed-off-by:

A recent commit moved most logic of early boot up from startup_64() written in assembly to __startup_64() written in C. Fengguang reported breakage due to the change. It was tracked down to CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER being enabled. Tracing this function is not possible because it's invoked from the earliest boot stage before the relocation fixups have been done. It is the function doing the relocation. Exclude it from being built with tracer stubs. Fixes: c88d7150 ("x86/boot/64: Rewrite startup_64() in C") Reported-by:

Since the following commit in 2008: cc503c1b ("x86: PIE executable randomization") We added a heuristics to treat applications with RLIMIT_STACK configured to unlimited as legacy. This means: a) set the mmap_base to 1/3 of address space + randomization and b) mmap from bottom to top. This makes some sense as it allows the stack to grow really large. On the other hand it reduces the address space usable for default mmaps (without address hint) quite a lot. We have received a bug report that SAP HANA workload has hit into this limitation. We could argue that the user just got what he asked for when setting up the unlimited stack but to be realistic growing stack up to 1/6 TASK_SIZE (allowed by mmap_base) is pretty much unimited in the real life. This would give mmap 20TB of additional address space which is quite nice. Especially when it is much more likely to use that address space than the reserved stack. Digging into the history the original implementation of the randomization: 8817210d ("[PATCH] x86_64: Flexmap for 32bit and randomized mappings for 64bit") didn't have this restriction. So let's try and remove this assumption - hopefully nothing breaks. Signed-off-by:

Originally, Linux reloaded the LDT whenever the prev mm or the next mm had an LDT. It was changed in 2002 in: 0bbed3be ("[PATCH] Thread-Local Storage (TLS) support") (commit from the historical tree), like this: - /* load_LDT, if either the previous or next thread - * has a non-default LDT. + /* + * load the LDT, if the LDT is different: */ - if (next->context.size+prev->context.size) + if (unlikely(prev->context.ldt != next->context.ldt)) load_LDT(&next->context); The current code is unlikely to avoid any LDT reloads, since different mms won't share an LDT. When we redo lazy mode to stop flush IPIs without switching to init_mm, though, the current logic would become incorrect: it will be possible to have real_prev == next but nonetheless have a stale LDT descriptor. Simplify the code to update LDTR if either the previous or the next mm has an LDT, i.e. effectively restore the historical logic.. While we're at it, clean up the code by moving all the ifdeffery to a header where it belongs. Signed-off-by:

If we have shared tags enabled, then every IO completion will trigger a full loop of every queue belonging to a tag set, and every hardware queue for each of those queues, even if nothing needs to be done. This causes a massive performance regression if you have a lot of shared devices. Instead of doing this huge full scan on every IO, add an atomic counter to the main queue that tracks how many hardware queues have been marked as needing a restart. With that, we can avoid looking for restartable queues, if we don't have to. Max reports that this restores performance. Before this patch, 4K IOPS was limited to 22-23K IOPS. With the patch, we are running at 950-970K IOPS. Fixes: 6d8c6c0f ("blk-mq: Restart a single queue if tag sets are shared") Reported-by:

Of course, it synchronizes also some states of the patch on the top of the stack, e.g. func->transition in klp_ftrace_handler. At the same time, this mechanism guards also the manipulation of task->patch_state. It is modified according to the state of the transition and the state of the process. Now, all this works well as long as RCU works well. Sadly livepatching might get into some corner cases when this is not true. For example, RCU is not watching when rcu_read_lock() is taken in idle threads. It is because they might sleep and prevent reaching the grace period for too long. There are ways how to make RCU watching even in idle threads, see rcu_irq_enter(). But there is a small location inside RCU infrastructure when even this does not work. This small problematic location can be detected either before calling rcu_irq_enter() by rcu_irq_enter_disabled() or later by rcu_is_watching(). Sadly, there is no safe way how to handle it. Once we detect that RCU was not watching, we might see inconsistent state of the function stack and the related variables in klp_ftrace_handler(). Then we could do a wrong decision, use an incompatible implementation of the function and break the consistency of the system. We could warn but we could not avoid the damage. Fortunately, ftrace has similar problems and they seem to be solved well there. It uses a heavy weight implementation of some RCU operations. In particular, it replaces: + rcu_read_lock() with preempt_disable_notrace() + rcu_read_unlock() with preempt_enable_notrace() + synchronize_rcu() with schedule_on_each_cpu(sync_work) My understanding is that this is RCU implementation from a stone age. It meets the core RCU requirements but it is rather ineffective. Especially, it does not allow to batch or speed up the synchronize calls. On the other hand, it is very trivial. It allows to safely trace and/or livepatch even the RCU core infrastructure. And the effectiveness is a not a big issue because using ftrace or livepatches on productive systems is a rare operation. The safety is much more important than a negligible extra load. Note that the alternative implementation follows the RCU principles. Therefore, we could and actually must use list_*_rcu() variants when manipulating the func_stack. These functions allow to access the pointers in the right order and with the right barriers. But they do not use any other information that would be set only by rcu_read_lock(). Also note that there are actually two problems solved in ftrace: First, it cares about the consistency of RCU read sections. It is being solved the way as described and used in this patch. Second, ftrace needs to make sure that nobody is inside the dynamic trampoline when it is being freed. For this, it also calls synchronize_rcu_tasks() in preemptive kernel in ftrace_shutdown(). Livepatch has similar problem but it is solved by ftrace for free. klp_ftrace_handler() is a good guy and never sleeps. In addition, it is registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_DYNAMIC. It causes that unregister_ftrace_function() calls: * schedule_on_each_cpu(ftrace_sync) - always * synchronize_rcu_tasks() - in preemptive kernel The effect is that nobody is neither inside the dynamic trampoline nor inside the ftrace handler after unregister_ftrace_function() returns.

Setting these bits causes libinput to fail to initialize the device; setting BTN_TOUCH and BTN_TOOL_FINGER causes it to treat the mouse as a touchpad, and it then refuses to continue when it discovers ABS_X is not set. This breaks all known Wayland compositors, as well as Xorg when the libinput driver is being used. This reverts commit f4b65b95. Signed-off-by:

Now before dumping a sock in sctp_diag, it only holds the sock while the ep may be already destroyed. It can cause a use-after-free panic when accessing ep->asocs. This patch is to set sctp_sk(sk)->ep NULL in sctp_endpoint_destroy, and check if this ep is already destroyed before dumping this ep. Suggested-by:

A divide by zero error occurs if qp_count is less than mw_count because num_qps_mw is calculated to be zero. The calculation appears to be incorrect. The requirement is for num_qps_mw to be set to qp_count / mw_count with any remainder divided among the earlier mws. For example, if mw_count is 5 and qp_count is 12 then mws 0 and 1 will have 3 qps per window and mws 2 through 4 will have 2 qps per window. Thus, when mw_num < qp_count % mw_count, num_qps_mw is 1 higher than when mw_num >= qp_count. Signed-off-by:

In cases where there are more mw's than spads/2-2, the mw count gets reduced to match the limitation. ntb_transport also tries to ensure that there are fewer qps than mws but uses the full mw count instead of the reduced one. When this happens, the math in 'ntb_transport_setup_qp_mw' will get confused and result in a kernel paging request bug. This patch fixes the bug by reducing qp_count to the reduced mw count instead of the full mw count. Signed-off-by:
