      Michael Ellerman authored
      When running KVM guests on Power8 we can see a lockup where one CPU
      stops responding. This often leads to a message such as:

          ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x78
      
      This is caused by commit 8c1c7fb0 ("powerpc/64s/idle: avoid sync
      for KVM state when waking from idle"), which added a check in
      pnv_powersave_wakeup() to see if the kvm_hstate.hwthread_state is
      already set to KVM_HWTHREAD_IN_KERNEL, and if so to skip the store and
      test of kvm_hstate.hwthread_req.
      
      The problem is that the primary does not set KVM_HWTHREAD_IN_KVM when
      entering the guest, so it can then come out to cede with
      KVM_HWTHREAD_IN_KERNEL set. It can then go idle in kvm_do_nap after
      setting hwthread_req to 1, but because hwthread_state is still
      KVM_HWTHREAD_IN_KERNEL we will skip the test of hwthread_req when we
      wake up from idle and won't go to kvm_start_guest. From there the
      thread will return somewhere garbage and crash.
      
      Fix it by skipping the store of hwthread_state, but not the test of
      hwthread_req, when coming out of idle. It's OK to skip the sync in
      that case because hwthread_req will have been set on the same thread,
      so there is no synchronisation required.

      powerpc/eeh: Fix enabling bridge MMIO windows · 13a83eac
      Michael Neuling authored
      On boot we save the configuration space of PCIe bridges. We do this so
      when we get an EEH event and everything gets reset that we can restore
      them.
      
      Unfortunately we save this state before we've enabled the MMIO space
      on the bridges. Hence if we have to reset the bridge when we come back
      MMIO is not enabled and we end up taking an PE freeze when the driver
      starts accessing again.
      
      This patch forces the memory/MMIO and bus mastering on when restoring
      bridges on EEH. Ideally we'd do this correctly by saving the
      configuration space writes later, but that will have to come later in
      a larger EEH rewrite. For now we have this simple fix.
      
      The original bug can be triggered on a boston machine by doing:
        echo 0x8000000000000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/PCI0001/err_injct_outbound
      On boston, this PHB has a PCIe switch on it.  Without this patch,
      you'll see two EEH events, 1 expected and 1 the failure we are fixing
      here. The second EEH event causes the anything under the PHB to
      disappear (i.e. the i40e eth).
      
      With this patch, only 1 EEH event occurs and devices properly recover.

      MIPS: memset.S: Fix clobber of v1 in last_fixup · c96eebf0
      Matt Redfearn authored
      The label .Llast_fixup\@ is jumped to on page fault within the final
      byte set loop of memset (on < MIPSR6 architectures). For some reason, in
      this fault handler, the v1 register is randomly set to a2 & STORMASK.
      This clobbers v1 for the calling function. This can be observed with the
      following test code:
      
      static int __init __attribute__((optimize("O0"))) test_clear_user(void)
      {
        register int t asm("v1");
        char *test;
        int j, k;
      
        pr_info("\n\n\nTesting clear_user\n");
        test = vmalloc(PAGE_SIZE);
      
        for (j = 256; j < 512; j++) {
          t = 0xa5a5a5a5;
          if ((k = clear_user(test + PAGE_SIZE - 256, j)) != j - 256) {
              pr_err("clear_user (%px %d) returned %d\n", test + PAGE_SIZE - 256, j, k);
          }
          if (t != 0xa5a5a5a5) {
             pr_err("v1 was clobbered to 0x%x!\n", t);
          }
        }
      
        return 0;
      }
      late_initcall(test_clear_user);
      
      Which demonstrates that v1 is indeed clobbered (MIPS64):
      
      Testing clear_user
      v1 was clobbered to 0x1!
      v1 was clobbered to 0x2!
      v1 was clobbered to 0x3!
      v1 was clobbered to 0x4!
      v1 was clobbered to 0x5!
      v1 was clobbered to 0x6!
      v1 was clobbered to 0x7!
      
      Since the number of bytes that could not be set is already contained in
      a2, the andi placing a value in v1 is not necessary and actively
      harmful in clobbering v1.

      powerpc/xive: Fix trying to "push" an already active pool VP · b32e56e5
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      When setting up a CPU, we "push" (activate) a pool VP for it.
      
      However it's an error to do so if it already has an active
      pool VP.
      
      This happens when doing soft CPU hotplug on powernv since we
      don't tear down the CPU on unplug. The HW flags the error which
      gets captured by the diagnostics.
      
      Fix this by making sure to "pull" out any already active pool
      first.

      udf: Fix leak of UTF-16 surrogates into encoded strings · 44f06ba8
      Jan Kara authored
      OSTA UDF specification does not mention whether the CS0 charset in case
      of two bytes per character encoding should be treated in UTF-16 or
      UCS-2. The sample code in the standard does not treat UTF-16 surrogates
      in any special way but on systems such as Windows which work in UTF-16
      internally, filenames would be treated as being in UTF-16 effectively.
      In Linux it is more difficult to handle characters outside of Base
      Multilingual plane (beyond 0xffff) as NLS framework works with 2-byte
      characters only. Just make sure we don't leak UTF-16 surrogates into the
      resulting string when loading names from the filesystem for now.

      MIPS: memset.S: Fix return of __clear_user from Lpartial_fixup · daf70d89
      Matt Redfearn authored
      The __clear_user function is defined to return the number of bytes that
      could not be cleared. From the underlying memset / bzero implementation
      this means setting register a2 to that number on return. Currently if a
      page fault is triggered within the memset_partial block, the value
      loaded into a2 on return is meaningless.
      
      The label .Lpartial_fixup\@ is jumped to on page fault. In order to work
      out how many bytes failed to copy, the exception handler should find how
      many bytes left in the partial block (andi a2, STORMASK), add that to
      the partial block end address (a2), and subtract the faulting address to
      get the remainder. Currently it incorrectly subtracts the partial block
      start address (t1), which has additionally been clobbered to generate a
      jump target in memset_partial. Fix this by adding the block end address
      instead.
      
      This issue was found with the following test code:
            int j, k;
            for (j = 0; j < 512; j++) {
              if ((k = clear_user(NULL, j)) != j) {
                 pr_err("clear_user (NULL %d) returned %d\n", j, k);
              }
            }
      Which now passes on Creator Ci40 (MIPS32) and Cavium Octeon II (MIPS64).

      xen/sndif: Sync up with the canonical definition in Xen · cd6e992b
      Oleksandr Andrushchenko authored
      This is the sync up with the canonical definition of the sound
      protocol in Xen:
      
      1. Protocol version was referenced in the protocol description,
         but missed its definition. Fixed by adding a constant
         for current protocol version.
      
      2. Some of the request descriptions have "reserved" fields
         missed: fixed by adding corresponding entries.
      
      3. Extend the size of the requests and responses to 64 octets.
         Bump protocol version to 2.
      
      4. Add explicit back and front synchronization
         In order to provide explicit synchronization between backend and
         frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
          - add new ring buffer for sending asynchronous events from
            backend to frontend to report number of bytes played by the
            frontend (XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS)
          - introduce trigger events for playback control: start/stop/pause/resume
          - add "req-" prefix to event-channel and ring-ref to unify naming
            of the Xen event channels for requests and events
      
      5. Add explicit back and front parameter negotiation
         In order to provide explicit stream parameter negotiation between
         backend and frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
         add XENSND_OP_HW_PARAM_QUERY request to read/update
         configuration space for the parameters given: request passes
         desired parameter's intervals/masks and the response to this request
         returns allowed min/max intervals/masks to be used.

      livepatch: Allow to call a custom callback when freeing shadow variables · 3b2c77d0
      Petr Mladek authored
      We might need to do some actions before the shadow variable is freed.
      For example, we might need to remove it from a list or free some data
      that it points to.
      
      This is already possible now. The user can get the shadow variable
      by klp_shadow_get(), do the necessary actions, and then call
      klp_shadow_free().
      
      This patch allows to do it a more elegant way. The user could implement
      the needed actions in a callback that is passed to klp_shadow_free()
      as a parameter. The callback usually does reverse operations to
      the constructor callback that can be called by klp_shadow_*alloc().
      
      It is especially useful for klp_shadow_free_all(). There we need to do
      these extra actions for each found shadow variable with the given ID.
      
      Note that the memory used by the shadow variable itself is still released
      later by rcu callback. It is needed to protect internal structures that
      keep all shadow variables. But the destructor is called immediately.
      The shadow variable must not be access anyway after klp_shadow_free()
      is called. The user is responsible to protect this any suitable way.
      
      Be aware that the destructor is called under klp_shadow_lock. It is
      the same as for the contructor in klp_shadow_alloc().

      livepatch: Initialize shadow variables safely by a custom callback · e91c2518
      Petr Mladek authored
      The existing API allows to pass a sample data to initialize the shadow
      data. It works well when the data are position independent. But it fails
      miserably when we need to set a pointer to the shadow structure itself.
      
      Unfortunately, we might need to initialize the pointer surprisingly
      often because of struct list_head. It is even worse because the list
      might be hidden in other common structures, for example, struct mutex,
      struct wait_queue_head.
      
      For example, this was needed to fix races in ALSA sequencer. It required
      to add mutex into struct snd_seq_client. See commit b3defb79
      ("ALSA: seq: Make ioctls race-free") and commit d15d662e
      ("ALSA: seq: Fix racy pool initializations")
      
      This patch makes the API more safe. A custom constructor function and data
      are passed to klp_shadow_*alloc() functions instead of the sample data.
      
      Note that ctor_data are no longer a template for shadow->data. It might
      point to any data that might be necessary when the constructor is called.
      
      Also note that the constructor is called under klp_shadow_lock. It is
      an internal spin_lock that synchronizes alloc() vs. get() operations,
      see klp_shadow_get_or_alloc(). On one hand, this adds a risk of ABBA
      deadlocks. On the other hand, it allows to do some operations safely.
      For example, we could add the new structure into an existing list.
      This must be done only once when the structure is allocated.

      powerpc/64s: Default l1d_size to 64K in RFI fallback flush · 9dfbf78e
      Madhavan Srinivasan authored
      If there is no d-cache-size property in the device tree, l1d_size could
      be zero. We don't actually expect that to happen, it's only been seen
      on mambo (simulator) in some configurations.
      
      A zero-size l1d_size leads to the loop in the asm wrapping around to
      2^64-1, and then walking off the end of the fallback area and
      eventually causing a page fault which is fatal.
      
      Just default to 64K which is correct on some CPUs, and sane enough to
      not cause a crash on others.

      s390/signal: cleanup uapi struct sigaction · fae76491
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      The struct sigaction for user space in arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/signal.h
      is ill defined. The kernel uses two structures 'struct sigaction' and
      'struct old_sigaction', the correlation in the kernel for both 31 and
      64 bit is as follows
      
          sys_sigaction -> struct old_sigaction
          sys_rt_sigaction -> struct sigaction
      
      The correlation of the (single) uapi definition for 'struct sigaction'
      under '#ifndef __KERNEL__':
      
          31-bit: sys_sigaction -> uapi struct sigaction
          31-bit: sys_rt_sigaction -> no structure available
      
          64-bit: sys_sigaction -> no structure available
          64-bit: sys_rt_sigaction -> uapi struct sigaction
      
      This is quite confusing. To make it a bit less confusing make the
      uapi definition of 'struct sigaction' usable for sys_rt_sigaction for
      both 31-bit and 64-bit.
