Code on the kprobe blacklist doesn't want unexpected int3
exceptions. It probably doesn't want unexpected debug exceptions
either. Be safe: disallow breakpoints in nokprobes code.
On non-CONFIG_KPROBES kernels, there is no kprobe blacklist. In
that case, disallow kernel breakpoints entirely.
It will be particularly important to keep hw breakpoints out of the
entry and NMI code once we move debug exceptions off the IST stack.

The previous change documents that cleanup_return_instances()
can't always detect the dead frames, the stack can grow. But
there is one special case which imho worth fixing:
arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can return true when the stack didn't
actually grow, but the next "call" insn uses the already
invalidated frame.
Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
jmp_buf jmp;
int nr = 1024;
void func_2(void)
{
if (--nr == 0)
return;
longjmp(jmp, 1);
}
void func_1(void)
{
setjmp(jmp);
func_2();
}
int main(void)
{
func_1();
return 0;
}
If you ret-probe func_1() and func_2() prepare_uretprobe() hits
the MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH limit and "return" from func_2() is not
reported.
When we know that the new call is not chained, we can do the
more strict check. In this case "sp" points to the new ret-addr,
so every frame which uses the same "sp" must be dead. The only
complication is that arch_uretprobe_is_alive() needs to know was
it chained or not, so we add the new RP_CHECK_CHAIN_CALL enum
and change prepare_uretprobe() to pass RP_CHECK_CALL only if
!chained.
Note: arch_uretprobe_is_alive() could also re-read *sp and check
if this word is still trampoline_vaddr. This could obviously
improve the logic, but I would like to avoid another
copy_from_user() especially in the case when we can't avoid the
false "alive == T" positives.

Add the x86 specific version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
helper. It returns true if the stack frame mangled by
prepare_uretprobe() is still on stack. So if it returns false,
we know that the probed function has already returned.
We add the new return_instance->stack member and change the
generic code to initialize it in prepare_uretprobe, but it
should be equally useful for other architectures.
TODO: this assumes that the probed application can't use
multiple stacks (say sigaltstack). We will try to improve
this logic later.

The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).
Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().
The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

Boris reported that the sparse_irq protection around __cpu_up() in the
generic code causes a regression on Xen. Xen allocates interrupts and
some more in the xen_cpu_up() function, so it deadlocks on the
sparse_irq_lock.
There is no simple fix for this and we really should have the
protection for all architectures, but for now the only solution is to
move it to x86 where actual wreckage due to the lack of protection has
been observed.

Jin debugged a nasty cpu hotplug race which results in leaking a irq
vector on the newly hotplugged cpu.
cpu N cpu M
native_cpu_up device_shutdown
do_boot_cpu free_msi_irqs
start_secondary arch_teardown_msi_irqs
smp_callin default_teardown_msi_irqs
setup_vector_irq arch_teardown_msi_irq
__setup_vector_irq native_teardown_msi_irq
lock(vector_lock) destroy_irq
install vectors
unlock(vector_lock)
lock(vector_lock)
---> __clear_irq_vector
unlock(vector_lock)
lock(vector_lock)
set_cpu_online
unlock(vector_lock)
This leaves the irq vector(s) which are torn down on CPU M stale in
the vector array of CPU N, because CPU M does not see CPU N online
yet. There is a similar issue with concurrent newly setup interrupts.
The alloc/free protection of irq descriptors does not prevent the
above race, because it merily prevents interrupt descriptors from
going away or changing concurrently.
Prevent this by moving the call to setup_vector_irq() into the
vector_lock held region which protects set_cpu_online():
cpu N cpu M
native_cpu_up device_shutdown
do_boot_cpu free_msi_irqs
start_secondary arch_teardown_msi_irqs
smp_callin default_teardown_msi_irqs
lock(vector_lock) arch_teardown_msi_irq
setup_vector_irq()
__setup_vector_irq native_teardown_msi_irq
install vectors destroy_irq
set_cpu_online
unlock(vector_lock)
lock(vector_lock)
__clear_irq_vector
unlock(vector_lock)
So cpu M either sees the cpu N online before clearing the vector or
cpu N installs the vectors after cpu M has cleared it.

When I enable early_printk on a kernel, I cut and paste the
console= input and add to earlyprintk parameter. But I notice
recently that ktest has not been detecting triple faults. The
way it detects it, is by seeing the kernel banner "Linux version
.." with a different kernel version pop up. Then I noticed that
early printk was no longer working on my console, which was why
ktest was not seeing it.
I bisected it down and it was added to 4.0 with this commit:
ea9e9d8029 ("Specify PCI based UART for earlyprintk")
because it converted the simple_strtoul() that converts the baud
number into a kstrtoul(). The problem with this is, I had as my
baud rate, 115200n8 (acceptable for console=ttyS0), but because
of the "n8", the kstrtoul() doesn't parse the baud rate and
returns an error, which sets the baud rate to the default 9600.
This explains the garbage on my screen.
Now, earlyprintk= kernel parameter does not say it accepts that
format. Thus, one answer would simply be me changing my kernel
parameters to remove the "n8" since it isn't parsed anyway. But
I wonder if other people run into this, and it seems strange
that the two consoles for serial accepts different input.
I could also extend this to have earlyprintk do something with
that "n8" or whatever it has and have it match the console
parsing (which, BTW, still uses simple_strtoul(), as I guess it
has to).
This patch just makes my old kernel parameter parsing work like
it use to.
Although, simple_strtoull() is considered obsolete, it is the
only standard string parsing function that parses a number that
is attached to text. Ironically, commit ea9e9d8029 also added
several calls to simple_strtoul()!

As we alloc pages with GFP_KERNEL in init_espfix_ap() which is
called before we enable local irqs, so the lockdep sub-system
would (correctly) trigger a warning about the potentially
blocking API.
So we allocate them on the boot CPU side when the secondary CPU is
brought up by the boot CPU, and hand them over to the secondary
CPU.
And we use alloc_pages_node() with the secondary CPU's node, to
make sure the espfix stack is NUMA-local to the CPU that is
going to use it.

Currently KASAN shadow region page tables created without
respect of physical offset (phys_base). This causes kernel halt
when phys_base is not zero.
So let's initialize KASAN shadow region page tables in
kasan_early_init() using __pa_nodebug() which considers
phys_base.
This patch also separates x86_64_start_kernel() from KASAN low
level details by moving kasan_map_early_shadow(init_level4_pgt)
into kasan_early_init().
Remove the comment before clear_bss() which stopped bringing
much profit to the code readability. Otherwise describing all
the new order dependencies would be too verbose.

Currently x86_64_start_kernel() has two KASAN related
function calls. The first call maps shadow to early_level4_pgt,
the second maps shadow to init_level4_pgt.
If we move clear_page(init_level4_pgt) earlier, we could hide
KASAN low level detail from generic x86_64 initialization code.
The next patch will do it.

If it takes longer than 12us to read the PIT counter lsb/msb,
then the error margin will never fall below 500ppm within 50ms,
and Fast TSC calibration will always fail.
This patch detects when that will happen and fails fast. Note
the failure message is not printed in that case because:
1. it will always happen on that class of hardware
2. the absence of the message is more informative than its
presence

Jan Kara and Thomas Gleixner reported boot crashes in the FPU

general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81048a6c>] [<ffffffff81048a6c>] mxcsr_feature_mask_init+0x1c/0x40
2b:* 0f ae 85 00 fe ff ff fxsave -0x200(%rbp)
and bisected it down to the following FPU commit:
91a8c2a5b4 ("x86/fpu: Clean up and fix MXCSR handling")
The reason is that the on-stack FPU registers state variable,
used by the FXSAVE instruction, did not have the required
minimum alignment of 16 bytes, causing the general protection
fault.
This is most likely a GCC bug in older GCC versions, but the
offending commit also added a bogus extra 32-byte alignment
(which GCC ignored too).
So fix this bug by making the variable static again, but also
mark it __initdata this time, because fpu__init_system_mxcsr()
is now an __init function.

Pull init.h/module.h fragility fixes from Paul Gortmaker:
"Fixup various init.h misuses that are fragile wrt code moving to
module.h
What started as a removal of no longer required include <linux/init.h>
due to the earlier __cpuinit and __devinit removal led to the
observation that some module specfic support was living in init.h
itself, thus preventing the full removal from introducing compile
regressions.
This series includes a few final fixups needed prior to the relocation
of the modular init code from <init.h> to <module.h>. These are
things that weren't easily categorized into any of the other previous
series categories already requested for pull.
That said, each fixup branch (including this one) is independent and
there are no ordering constraints. Only the final code relocation
(which is NOT in this pull) requires that all my cleanup branches be
merged first"

Merge tag 'module_init-alternate_initcall-v4.1-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux
Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non
modules.
This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init()
call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our
alternate priority initcalls.
Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a
runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls,
because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do.
For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch
specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code.
This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be
taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit
init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better
to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to
device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering.
Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in
commit c96d6660dc ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of
module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this
type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same
local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests
that I'm sending for this merge window have got.
Once again, there is an unused module_exit function removal that shows
up as an outlier upon casual inspection of the diffstat"

"Replace module_init with equivalent device_initcall in non modules.
This series of commits converts non-modular code that is using the
module_init() call to hook itself into the system to instead use

The conversion is a runtime no-op, since module_init actually becomes
__initcall in the non-modular case, and that in turn gets mapped onto
device_initcall. A couple files show a larger negative diffstat,
representing ones that had a module_exit function that we remove here
vs previously relying on the linker to dispose of it.
We make this conversion now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future.

Any parameter passed after '--' in the kernel command-line will not be
parsed by the kernel at all, instead it will be passed directly to init
process.
Currently the kernel appends elfcorehdr=<paddr> to the cmdline passed from
kexec load, and if this command-line is used to pass parameters to init
process this means that 'elfcorehdr' will not be parsed as a kernel
parameter at all which will be a problem for vmcore subsystem since it
will know nothing about the location of the ELF structure!
Prepending 'elfcorehdr' instead of appending it fixes this problem since
it ensures that it always comes before '--' and so it's always parsed as a
kernel command-line parameter.
Even with this patch things can still go wrong if 'CONFIG_CMDLINE' was
also used to embedd a command-line to the crash dump kernel and this
command-line contains '--' since the current behavior of the kernel is to
actually append the boot loader command-line to the embedded command-line.

Commit 1b7b938f18 ("perf/x86/intel: Fix PMI handling for Intel PT") conditionally
increments active_events in x86_add_exclusive() but unconditionally decrements in
x86_del_exclusive().
These extra decrements can lead to the situation where
active_events is zero and thus the PMI handler is 'disabled'
while we have active events on the PMU generating PMIs.
This leads to a truckload of:
Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 21 on CPU 28.
Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?
Dazed and confused, but trying to continue
messages and generally messes up perf.
Remove the condition on the increment, double increment balanced
by a double decrement is perfectly fine.
Restructure the code a little bit to make the unconditional inc
a bit more natural.

It turns out that Linux does a double workaround here, as per:
066941bd4e ("x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs")
it undoes the BIOS workaround - but as a side effect the CPUID
state is not completely constant during early init anymore,
and the new FPU init code did not take this into account.
So what happened is that the xstate init code did not have full
CPUID available, which broke subsequent attempts to use xstate
features.
Fix this by ordering the early FPU init code to after we've
stabilized the CPUID state.

4 drivers / enabling modules:
NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory devices
(NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface
table). After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers
"region" devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block device
(disk) interface to the memory.
PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of persistent
memory address ranges is re-worked to drive PMEM-namespaces emitted by
the libnvdimm-core. In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the
ability to assert that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all
the way through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent
media. See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().
BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through "Block
Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference of this
driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent memory is
mapped into system address space at any given point in time. Per-NVDIMM
windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access different
portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not support DAX.
BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss). The
sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do not know
they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's disk's rarely
ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly gets a CRC error
on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always silently. Until an
application is audited to be robust in the presence of sector-tearing
the usage of BTT is recommended.

ACPI NFIT table has System Physical Address Range Structure entries that
describe a proximity ID of each range when ACPI_NFIT_PROXIMITY_VALID is
set in the flags.
Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to map a proximity ID to its node ID,
and set it to a new numa_node field of nd_region_desc, which is then
conveyed to the nd_region device.
The device core arranges for btt and namespace devices to inherit their
node from their parent region.

nd_pmem attaches to persistent memory regions and namespaces emitted by
the libnvdimm subsystem, and, same as the original pmem driver, presents
the system-physical-address range as a block device.
The existing e820-type-12 to pmem setup is converted to an nvdimm_bus
that emits an nd_namespace_io device.
Note that the X in 'pmemX' is now derived from the parent region. This
provides some stability to the pmem devices names from boot-to-boot.
The minor numbers are also more predictable by passing 0 to
alloc_disk().

Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a
recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to
process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover
completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by
reading from disk).
But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code
execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever
be able to recover.
Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing.
Gen1: All memory is mirrored
Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the
mirror
Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications
Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers
Pro: Keep more of the capacity
Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from
mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance
Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory
controller
Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance
Con: I have to write memory management code to implement
The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations.
This has been broken into two phases:
1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time
allocations
2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
page_alloc.c is scary).
This patch (of 3):
Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on
attribute. No functional changes

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
majority of cases.
From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI
device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
device configuration object.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.
There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
the last minute for 4.1.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
_MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
Lv Zheng).
- ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).
- rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).
- fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).
- fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
(Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).
- support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).
- ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).
- ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).
- ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).
- cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).
- assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).
- fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
Kandoi).
- support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).
- new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
Rafael J Wysocki).
- wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).
- new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).
- assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).
- cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).
- cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).
- serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
Bhargava, Joe Konno).
- cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep
Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian).
- assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma,
Fabian Frederick, Wang Long).
- new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance
Points (Viresh Kumar).
- updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
(Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).
- fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the
RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas).
- runtime PM framework documentation update (Ben Dooks).
- cpupower tool fix (Herton R Krzesinski)"
