commit 6726655d upstream. There is a following AB-BA dependency between cpu_hotplug.lock and cpuidle_lock: 1) cpu_hotplug.lock -> cpuidle_lock enable_nonboot_cpus() _cpu_up() cpu_hotplug_begin() LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock) cpu_notify() ... acpi_processor_hotplug() cpuidle_pause_and_lock() LOCK(cpuidle_lock) 2) cpuidle_lock -> cpu_hotplug.lock acpi_os_execute_deferred() workqueue ... acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() cpuidle_pause_and_lock() LOCK(cpuidle_lock) get_online_cpus() LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock) Fix this by reversing the order acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() does thigs -- let it first execute the protection against CPU hotplug by calling get_online_cpus() and obtain the cpuidle lock only after that (and perform the symmentric change when allowing CPUs hotplug again and dropping cpuidle lock).

commit 2ff396be upstream. We ran into a case on ppc64 running mariadb where io_getevents would return zeroed out I/O events. After adding instrumentation, it became clear that there was some missing synchronization between reading the tail pointer and the events themselves. This small patch fixes the problem in testing. Thanks to Zach for helping to look into this, and suggesting the fix. Signed-off-by:

commit 61a734d3 upstream. Always freeze processes when suspending and thaw processes when resuming to prevent a race noticeable with HVM guests. This prevents a deadlock where the khubd kthread (which is designed to be freezable) acquires a usb device lock and then tries to allocate memory which requires the disk which hasn't been resumed yet. Meanwhile, the xenwatch thread deadlocks waiting for the usb device lock. Freezing processes fixes this because the khubd thread is only thawed after the xenwatch thread finishes resuming all the devices. Signed-off-by:

commit 049255f5 upstream. Sierra Wireless Direct IP devices using the 68A3 product ID can be configured for modes including a CDC ECM class function. The known example uses interface numbers 12 and 13 for the ECM control and data interfaces respectively, consistent with CDC MBIM function interface numbering on other Sierra devices. It seems cleaner to restrict this driver to the ff/ff/ff vendor specific interfaces rather than increasing the already long interface number blacklist. This should be more future proof if Sierra adds more class functions using interface numbers not yet in the blacklist. Signed-off-by:

commit bbe1c274 upstream. The __init annotations for the DMI callback functions are wrong as this code can be called even after the module has been initialized, e.g. like this: # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.0/remove # modprobe i915 # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan The first command will remove the PCI device from the kernel's device list so the second command won't see it right away. But as it registers a PCI driver it'll see it on the third command. If the system happens to match one of the DMI table entries we'll try to call a function in long released memory and generate an Oops, at best. Fix this by removing the bogus annotation. Modpost should have caught that one but it ignores section reference mismatches from the .rodata section. :/ Fixes: 25e341cf ("drm/i915: quirk away broken OpRegion VBT") Fixes: 8ca4013d ("CHROMIUM: i915: Add DMI override to skip CRT...")

Mark Brown authored
commit 5844a8b9 upstream. A previous over-zealous factorisation of code means that we only treat registers as volatile if they are readable. For most devices this is fine since normally most registers can be read and volatility implies readability but for format_write() devices where there is no readback from the hardware and we use volatility to mean simply uncacheability this means that we end up treating all registers as cacheble. A bigger refactoring of the code to clarify this is in order but as a fix make a minimal change and only check readability when checking volatility if there is no format_write() operation defined for the device.

commit 614a80e4 upstream. In the early days, we had some special handling for the KVM_EXIT_S390_SIEIC exit, but this was gone in 2009 with commit d7b0b5eb (KVM: s390: Make psw available on all exits, not just a subset). Now this switch statement is just a sanity check for userspace not messing with the kvm_run structure. Unfortunately, this allows userspace to trigger a kernel BUG. Let's just remove this switch statement. Signed-off-by:

commit 849f5169 upstream. If pcpu_map_pages() fails midway, it unmaps the already mapped pages. Currently, it doesn't flush tlb after the partial unmapping. This may be okay in most cases as the established mapping hasn't been used at that point but it can go wrong and when it goes wrong it'd be extremely difficult to track down. Flush tlb after the partial unmapping. Signed-off-by:

commit f0d27965 upstream. When pcpu_alloc_pages() fails midway, pcpu_free_pages() is invoked to free what has already been allocated. The invocation is across the whole requested range and pcpu_free_pages() will try to free all non-NULL pages; unfortunately, this is incorrect as pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap(), unlike what its comment suggests, doesn't clear the pages array and thus the array may have entries from the previous invocations making the partial failure path free incorrect pages. Fix it by open-coding the partial freeing of the already allocated pages. Signed-off-by:

commit 8762e509 upstream. init_espfix_ap() is currently off by one level when informing hypervisor that allocated pages will be used for ministacks' page tables. The most immediate effect of this on a PV guest is that if 'stack_page = __get_free_page()' returns a non-zeroed-out page the hypervisor will refuse to use it for a page table (which it shouldn't be anyway). This will result in warnings by both Xen and Linux. More importantly, a subsequent write to that page (again, by a PV guest) is likely to result in fatal page fault. Signed-off-by:

commit 7209a75d upstream. This moves the espfix64 logic into native_iret. To make this work, it gets rid of the native patch for INTERRUPT_RETURN: INTERRUPT_RETURN on native kernels is now 'jmp native_iret'. This changes the 16-bit SS behavior on Xen from OOPSing to leaking some bits of the Xen hypervisor's RSP (I think). [ hpa: this is a nonzero cost on native, but probably not enough to measure. Xen needs to fix this in their own code, probably doing something equivalent to espfix64. ] Signed-off-by:

commit 197725de upstream. Make espfix64 a hidden Kconfig option. This fixes the x86-64 UML build which had broken due to the non-existence of init_espfix_bsp() in UML: since UML uses its own Kconfig, this option does not appear in the UML build. This also makes it possible to make support for 16-bit segments a configuration option, for the people who want to minimize the size of the kernel. Reported-by:

commit 3891a04a upstream. The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. This causes some 16-bit software to break, but it also leaks kernel state to user space. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 64-bit mode. In checkin: b3b42ac2 x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels we "solved" this by forbidding 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels, with the logic that 16-bit support is crippled on 64-bit kernels anyway (no V86 support), but it turns out that people are doing stuff like running old Win16 binaries under Wine and expect it to work. This works around this by creating percpu "ministacks", each of which is mapped 2^16 times 64K apart. When we detect that the return SS is on the LDT, we copy the IRET frame to the ministack and use the relevant alias to return to userspace. The ministacks are mapped readonly, so if IRET faults we promote #GP to #DF which is an IST vector and thus has its own stack; we then do the fixup in the #DF handler. (Making #GP an IST exception would make the msr_safe functions unsafe in NMI/MC context, and quite possibly have other effects.) Special thanks to: - Andy Lutomirski, for the suggestion of using very small stack slots and copy (as opposed to map) the IRET frame there, and for the suggestion to mark them readonly and let the fault promote to #DF. - Konrad Wilk for paravirt fixup and testing. - Borislav Petkov for testing help and useful comments.

commit e7b691b0 upstream. slab_node() could access current->mempolicy from interrupt context. However there's a race condition during exit where the mempolicy is first freed and then the pointer zeroed. Using this from interrupts seems bogus anyways. The interrupt will interrupt a random process and therefore get a random mempolicy. Many times, this will be idle's, which noone can change. Just disable this here and always use local for slab from interrupts. I also cleaned up the callers of slab_node a bit which always passed the same argument. I believe the original mempolicy code did that in fact, so it's likely a regression. v2: send version with correct logic v3: simplify. fix typo. Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 4ca9a237 ] Based almost entirely upon a patch by Christopher Alexander Tobias Schulze. In commit db64fe02 ("mm: rewrite vmap layer") lazy VMAP tlb flushing was added to the vmalloc layer. This causes problems on sparc64. Sparc64 has two VMAP mapped regions and they are not contiguous with eachother. First we have the malloc mapping area, then another unrelated region, then the vmalloc region. This "another unrelated region" is where the firmware is mapped. If the lazy TLB flushing logic in the vmalloc code triggers after we've had both a module unload and a vfree or similar, it will pass an address range that goes from somewhere inside the malloc region to somewhere inside the vmalloc region, and thus covering the openfirmware area entirely. The sparc64 kernel learns about openfirmware's dynamic mappings in this region early in the boot, and then services TLB misses in this area. But openfirmware has some locked TLB entries which are not mentioned in those dynamic mappings and we should thus not disturb them. These huge lazy TLB flush ranges causes those openfirmware locked TLB entries to be removed, resulting in all kinds of problems including hard hangs and crashes during reboot/reset. Besides causing problems like this, such huge TLB flush ranges are also incredibly inefficient. A plea has been made with the author of the VMAP lazy TLB flushing code, but for now we'll put a safety guard into our flush_tlb_kernel_range() implementation. Since the implementation has become non-trivial, stop defining it as a macro and instead make it a function in a C source file. Signed-off-by:
