When run under QEMU, calling mfctl(16) creates some overhead because the qemu timer has to be scaled and moved into the register. This patch reduces the number of calls to mfctl(16) by moving the calls out of the loops. Additionally, increase the minimal time interval to 8000 cycles instead of 500 to compensate possible QEMU delays when delivering interrupts.

The architecture specification says (for 64-bit systems): PDC is a per processor resource, and operating system software must be prepared to manage separate pointers to PDCE_PROC for each processor. The address of PDCE_PROC for the monarch processor is stored in the Page Zero location MEM_PDC. The address of PDCE_PROC for each non-monarch processor is passed in gr26 when PDCE_RESET invokes OS_RENDEZ. Currently we still use one PDC for all CPUs, but in case we face a machine which is following the specification let's warn about it. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

The change to flush_kernel_vmap_range() wasn't sufficient to avoid the SMP stalls. The problem is some drivers call these routines with interrupts disabled. Interrupts need to be enabled for flush_tlb_all() and flush_cache_all() to work. This version adds checks to ensure interrupts are not disabled before calling routines that need IPI interrupts. When interrupts are disabled, we now drop into slower code. The attached change fixes the ordering of cache and TLB flushes in several cases. When we flush the cache using the existing PTE/TLB entries, we need to flush the TLB after doing the cache flush. We don't need to do this when we flush the entire instruction and data caches as these flushes don't use the existing TLB entries. The same is true for tmpalias region flushes. The flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() routines have been updated. Secondly, we added a new purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm() routine to pacache.S and use it in invalidate_kernel_vmap_range(). Nominally, purges are faster than flushes as the cache lines don't have to be written back to memory. Hopefully, this is sufficient to resolve the remaining problems due to cache speculation. So far, testing indicates that this is the case. I did work up a patch using tmpalias flushes, but there is a performance hit because we need the physical address for each page, and we also need to sequence access to the tmpalias flush code. This increases the probability of stalls. Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.9+ Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Thomas Gleixner authored
The hrtimer interrupt code contains a hang detection and mitigation mechanism, which prevents that a long delayed hrtimer interrupt causes a continous retriggering of interrupts which prevent the system from making progress. If a hang is detected then the timer hardware is programmed with a certain delay into the future and a flag is set in the hrtimer cpu base which prevents newly enqueued timers from reprogramming the timer hardware prior to the chosen delay. The subsequent hrtimer interrupt after the delay clears the flag and resumes normal operation. If such a hang happens in the last hrtimer interrupt before a CPU is unplugged then the hang_detected flag is set and stays that way when the CPU is plugged in again. At that point the timer hardware is not armed and it cannot be armed because the hang_detected flag is still active, so nothing clears that flag. As a consequence the CPU does not receive hrtimer interrupts and no timers expire on that CPU which results in RCU stalls and other malfunctions. Clear the flag along with some other less critical members of the hrtimer cpu base to ensure starting from a clean state when a CPU is plugged in. Thanks to Paul, Sebastian and Anna-Maria for their help to get down to the root cause of that hard to reproduce heisenbug. Once understood it's trivial and certainly justifies a brown paperbag.

Due to some unfortunate events, I have not been directly involved in the x86 kernel patch flow for a while now. I have also not been able to ramp back up by now like I had hoped to, and after reviewing what I will need to work on both internally at Intel and elsewhere in the near term, it is clear that I am not going to be able to ramp back up until late 2018 at the very earliest. It is not acceptable to not recognize that this load is currently taken by Ingo and Thomas without my direct participation, so I mark myself as R: (designated reviewer) rather than M: (maintainer) until further notice. This is in fact recognizing the de facto situation for the past few years. I have obviously no intention of going away, and I will do everything within my power to improve Linux on x86 and x86 for Linux. This, however, puts credit where it is due and reflects a change of focus. This patch also removes stale entries for portions of the x86 architecture which have not been maintained separately from arch/x86 for a long time. If there is a reason to re-introduce them then that can happen later. Signed-off-by: H.

The new infaread.org list is much better. We just got it on Wednesday but I used it a bit on Thursday to shake out all the configuration problems and it appears to be in working order. When I updated the mailing list I noticed that the MAINTAINERS file was pointing to our github repo, but now that we have a kernel.org repo I'd like to point to that instead so I changed that as well. We'll be centralizing all RISC-V Linux related development here as that seems to be the saner way to go about it. I can understand if it's too late to get this into 4.15, but given that it's not a code change I was hoping it'd still be OK.

select(2) with wfds but no rfds must return when the socket is shut down by the peer. This way userspace notices socket activity and gets -EPIPE from the next write(2). Currently select(2) does not return for virtio-vsock when a SEND+RCV shutdown packet is received.

Neil Berrington reported a double-fault on a VM with 768GB of RAM that uses large amounts of vmalloc space with PTI enabled. The cause is that load_new_mm_cr3() was never fixed to take the 5-level pgd folding code into account, so, on a 4-level kernel, the pgd synchronization logic compiles away to exactly nothing. Interestingly, the problem doesn't trigger with nopti. I assume this is because the kernel is mapped with global pages if we boot with nopti. The sequence of operations when we create a new task is that we first load its mm while still running on the old stack (which crashes if the old stack is unmapped in the new mm unless the TLB saves us), then we call prepare_switch_to(), and then we switch to the new stack. prepare_switch_to() pokes the new stack directly, which will populate the mapping through vmalloc_fault(). I assume that we're getting lucky on non-PTI systems -- the old stack's TLB entry stays alive long enough to make it all the way through prepare_switch_to() and switch_to() so that we make it to a valid stack.

For a while we've been having issues with seemingly random interrupts coming from nvidia cards when resuming them. Originally the fix for this was thought to be just re-arming the MSI interrupt registers right after re-allocating our IRQs, however it seems a lot of what we do is both wrong and not even nessecary. This was made apparent by what appeared to be a regression in the mainline kernel that started introducing suspend/resume issues for nouveau: a0c9259d (irq/matrix: Spread interrupts on allocation) After this commit was introduced, we started getting interrupts from the GPU before we actually re-allocated our own IRQ (see references below) and assigned the IRQ handler. Investigating this turned out that the problem was not with the commit, but the fact that nouveau even free/allocates it's irqs before and after suspend/resume. For starters: drivers in the linux kernel haven't had to handle freeing/re-allocating their IRQs during suspend/resume cycles for quite a while now. Nouveau seems to be one of the few drivers left that still does this, despite the fact there's no reason we actually need to since disabling interrupts from the device side should be enough, as the kernel is already smart enough to know to disable host-side interrupts for us before going into suspend. Since we were tearing down our IRQs by hand however, that means there was a short period during resume where interrupts could be received before we re-allocated our IRQ which would lead to us getting an unhandled IRQ. Since we never handle said IRQ and re-arm the interrupt registers, this would cause us to miss all of the interrupts from the GPU and cause our init process to start timing out on anything requiring interrupts. So, since this whole setup/teardown every suspend/resume cycle is useless anyway, move irq setup/teardown into the pci subdev's ctor/dtor functions instead so they're only called at driver load and driver unload. This should fix most of the issues with pending interrupts on resume, along with getting suspend/resume for nouveau to work again. As well, this probably means we can also just remove the msi rearm call inside nvkm_pci_init(). But since our main focus here is to fix suspend/resume before 4.15, we'll save that for a later patch.

When a tcp socket is closed, if it detects that its net namespace is exiting, close immediately and do not wait for FIN sequence. For normal sockets, a reference is taken to their net namespace, so it will never exit while the socket is open. However, kernel sockets do not take a reference to their net namespace, so it may begin exiting while the kernel socket is still open. In this case if the kernel socket is a tcp socket, it will stay open trying to complete its close sequence. The sock's dst(s) hold a reference to their interface, which are all transferred to the namespace's loopback interface when the real interfaces are taken down. When the namespace tries to take down its loopback interface, it hangs waiting for all references to the loopback interface to release, which results in messages like: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1 These messages continue until the socket finally times out and closes. Since the net namespace cleanup holds the net_mutex while calling its registered pernet callbacks, any new net namespace initialization is blocked until the current net namespace finishes exiting. After this change, the tcp socket notices the exiting net namespace, and closes immediately, releasing its dst(s) and their reference to the loopback interface, which lets the net namespace continue exiting.

Lockdep noticed the following 3-way lockup scenario: sys_perf_event_open() perf_event_alloc() perf_try_init_event() #0 ctx = perf_event_ctx_lock_nested(1) perf_swevent_init() swevent_hlist_get() #1 mutex_lock(&pmus_lock) perf_event_init_cpu() #1 mutex_lock(&pmus_lock) #2 mutex_lock(&ctx->mutex) sys_perf_event_open() mutex_lock_double() #2 mutex_lock() #0 mutex_lock_nested() And while we need that perf_event_ctx_lock_nested() for HW PMUs such that they can iterate the sibling list, trying to match it to the available counters, the software PMUs need do no such thing. Exclude them. In particular the swevent triggers the above invertion, while the tpevent PMU triggers a more elaborate one through their event_mutex.
