      powerpc/powernv: Fix oops on P9 DD1 in cause_ipi() · 45b21cfe
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      Recently we merged the native xive support for Power9, and then separately some
reworks for doorbell IPI support. In isolation both series were OK, but the
merged result had a bug in one case.

On P9 DD1 we use pnv_p9_dd1_cause_ipi() which tries to use doorbells, and then
falls back to the interrupt controller. However the fallback is implemented by
calling icp_ops->cause_ipi. But now that xive support is merged we might be
using xive, in which case icp_ops is not initialised, it's a xics specific
structure. This leads to an oops such as:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000028
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  NIP pnv_p9_dd1_cause_ipi+0x74/0xe0
  LR smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass+0x54/0x70

To fix it, rather than using icp_ops which might be NULL, have both xics and
xive set smp_ops->cause_ipi, and then in the powernv code we save that as
ic_cause_ipi before overriding smp_ops->cause_ipi. For paranoia add a WARN_ON()
to check if somehow smp_ops->cause_ipi is NULL.

      powerpc/powernv: Fix missing attr initialisation in opal_export_attrs() · 83c49190
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      In opal_export_attrs() we dynamically allocate some bin_attributes. They're
allocated with kmalloc() and although we initialise most of the fields, we don't
initialise write() or mmap(), and in particular we don't initialise the lockdep
related fields in the embedded struct attribute.

This leads to a lockdep warning at boot:

  BUG: key c0000000f11906d8 not in .data!
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at ../kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3136 lockdep_init_map+0x28c/0x2a0

    ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xb0

Fix it by kzalloc'ing the attr, which fixes the uninitialised write() and
mmap(), and calling sysfs_bin_attr_init() on it to initialise the lockdep
fields.

      powerpc/mm: Fix possible out-of-bounds shift in arch_mmap_rnd() · b409946b
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      The recent patch to add runtime configuration of the ASLR limits added a bug in
arch_mmap_rnd() where we may shift an integer (32-bits) by up to 33 bits,
leading to undefined behaviour.

In practice it exhibits as every process seg faulting instantly, presumably
because the rnd value hasn't been restricited by the modulus at all. We didn't
notice because it only happens under certain kernel configurations and if the
number of bits is actually set to a large value.

Fix it by switching to unsigned long.

      powerpc/mm: Ensure IRQs are off in switch_mm() · 9765ad13
      David Gibson authored 
      powerpc expects IRQs to already be (soft) disabled when switch_mm() is
called, as made clear in the commit message of 9c1e1052 ("powerpc: Allow
perf_counters to access user memory at interrupt time").

Aside from any race conditions that might exist between switch_mm() and an IRQ,
there is also an unconditional hard_irq_disable() in switch_slb(). If that isn't
followed at some point by an IRQ enable then interrupts will remain disabled
until we return to userspace.

It is true that when switch_mm() is called from the scheduler IRQs are off, but
not when it's called by use_mm(). Looking closer we see that last year in commit
f98db601 ("sched/core: Add switch_mm_irqs_off() and use it in the scheduler")
this was made more explicit by the addition of switch_mm_irqs_off() which is now
called by the scheduler, vs switch_mm() which is used by use_mm().

Arguably it is a bug in use_mm() to call switch_mm() in a different context than
it expects, but fixing that will take time.

This was discovered recently when vhost started throwing warnings such as:

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/mutex.c:578
  in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, pid: 10768, name: vhost-10760

    vhost_worker+0x24c/0x3d0 [vhost]
    kthread+0xec/0x100
    ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xd4

Prior to commit 04b96e55 ("vhost: lockless enqueuing") (Aug 2016) the
vhost_worker() would do a spin_unlock_irq() not long after calling use_mm(),
which had the effect of reenabling IRQs. Since that commit removed the locking
in vhost_worker() the body of the vhost_worker() loop now runs with interrupts
off causing the warnings.

This patch addresses the problem by making the powerpc code mirror the x86 code,
ie. we disable interrupts in switch_mm(), and optimise the scheduler case by
defining switch_mm_irqs_off().

      powerpc/sysfs: Fix reference leak of cpu device_nodes present at boot · e76ca277
      Tyrel Datwyler authored 
      For CPUs present at boot each logical CPU acquires a reference to the
associated device node of the core. This happens in register_cpu() which
is called by topology_init(). The result of this is that we end up with
a reference held by each thread of the core. However, these references
are never freed if the CPU core is DLPAR removed.

This patch fixes the reference leaks by acquiring and releasing the references
in the CPU hotplug callbacks un/register_cpu_online(). With this patch symmetric
reference counting is observed with both CPUs present at boot, and those DLPAR
added after boot.

      powerpc/pseries: Fix of_node_put() underflow during DLPAR remove · 68baf692
      Tyrel Datwyler authored 
      Historically struct device_node references were tracked using a kref embedded as
a struct field. Commit 75b57ecf ("of: Make device nodes kobjects so they
show up in sysfs") (Mar 2014) refactored device_nodes to be kobjects such that
the device tree could by more simply exposed to userspace using sysfs.

Commit 0829f6d1 ("of: device_node kobject lifecycle fixes") (Mar 2014)
followed up these changes to better control the kobject lifecycle and in
particular the referecne counting via of_node_get(), of_node_put(), and
of_node_init().

A result of this second commit was that it introduced an of_node_put() call when
a dynamic node is detached, in of_node_remove(), that removes the initial kobj
reference created by of_node_init().

Traditionally as the original dynamic device node user the pseries code had
assumed responsibilty for releasing this final reference in its platform
specific DLPAR detach code.

This patch fixes a refcount underflow introduced by commit 0829f6d1, and
recently exposed by the upstreaming of the recount API.

Messages like the following are no longer seen in the kernel log with this
patch following DLPAR remove operations of cpus and pci devices.

  refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

      Merge branch 'topic/kprobes' into next · 9fc84914
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      Although most of these kprobes patches are powerpc specific, there's a couple
that touch generic code (with Acks). At the moment there's one conflict with
acme's tree, but it's not too bad. Still just in case some other conflicts show
up, we've put these in a topic branch so another tree could merge some or all of
it if necessary.

      powerpc/kprobes: Prefer ftrace when probing function entry · 24bd909e
      Naveen N. Rao authored 
      KPROBES_ON_FTRACE avoids much of the overhead of regular kprobes as it
eliminates the need for a trap, as well as the need to emulate or single-step
instructions.

Though OPTPROBES provides us with similar performance, we have limited
optprobes trampoline slots. As such, when asked to probe at a function
entry, default to using the ftrace infrastructure.

With:
  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
  # echo 'p _do_fork' > kprobe_events

before patch:
  # cat ../kprobes/list
  c0000000000daf08  k  _do_fork+0x8    [DISABLED]
  c000000000044fc0  k  kretprobe_trampoline+0x0    [OPTIMIZED]

and after patch:
  # cat ../kprobes/list
  c0000000000d074c  k  _do_fork+0xc    [DISABLED][FTRACE]
  c0000000000412b0  k  kretprobe_trampoline+0x0    [OPTIMIZED]

      powerpc/kprobes: Add support for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE · ead514d5
      Naveen N. Rao authored 
      Allow kprobes to be placed on ftrace _mcount() call sites. This optimization
avoids the use of a trap, by riding on ftrace infrastructure.

This depends on HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS which depends on MPROFILE_KERNEL,
which is only currently enabled on powerpc64le with newer toolchains.

Based on the x86 code by Masami.
