To match its x86 counterpart, save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() should return -EINVAL in cases that it is currently returning 1. No caller is currently differentiating non-zero error codes, but let's keep the arch-specific implementations consistent.

The bottom-most stack frame (the first to be unwound) may be largely uninitialized, for the "Power Architecture 64-Bit ELF V2 ABI" only requires its backchain pointer to be set. The reliable stack tracer should be careful when verifying this frame: skip checks on STACK_FRAME_LR_SAVE and STACK_FRAME_MARKER offsets that may contain uninitialized residual data.

Make the HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE Kconfig option depend on PPC_BOOK3S_64 for documentation purposes. Before this patch, it depended on PPC64 && CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN and because CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN implies PPC_BOOK3S_64, there's no functional change here.

The ppc64 specific implementation of the reliable stacktracer, save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable(), bails out and reports an "unreliable trace" whenever it finds an exception frame on the stack. Stack frames are classified as exception frames if the STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER magic, as written by exception prologues, is found at a particular location. However, as observed by Joe Lawrence, it is possible in practice that non-exception stack frames can alias with prior exception frames and thus, that the reliable stacktracer can find a stale STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER on the stack. It in turn falsely reports an unreliable stacktrace and blocks any live patching transition to finish. Said condition lasts until the stack frame is overwritten/initialized by function call or other means. In principle, we could mitigate this by making the exception frame classification condition in save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() stronger: in addition to testing for STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER, we could also take into account that for all exceptions executing on the kernel stack - their stack frames's backlink pointers always match what is saved in their pt_regs instance's ->gpr[1] slot and that - their exception frame size equals STACK_INT_FRAME_SIZE, a value uncommonly large for non-exception frames. However, while these are currently true, relying on them would make the reliable stacktrace implementation more sensitive towards future changes in the exception entry code. Note that false negatives, i.e. not detecting exception frames, would silently break the live patching consistency model. Furthermore, certain other places (diagnostic stacktraces, perf, xmon) rely on STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER as well. Make the exception exit code clear the on-stack STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER for those exceptions running on the "normal" kernel stack and returning to kernelspace: because the topmost frame is ignored by the reliable stack tracer anyway, returns to userspace don't need to take care of clearing the marker. Furthermore, as I don't have the ability to test this on Book 3E or 32 bits, limit the change to Book 3S and 64 bits.

In htab_convert_pte_flags(), _PAGE_CACHE_CTL is used to check for the _PAGE_SAO flag: else if ((pteflags & _PAGE_CACHE_CTL) == _PAGE_SAO) rflags |= (HPTE_R_W | HPTE_R_I | HPTE_R_M); But, it isn't defined to include that flag: #define _PAGE_CACHE_CTL (_PAGE_NON_IDEMPOTENT | _PAGE_TOLERANT) This happens to work, but only because of the flag values: #define _PAGE_SAO 0x00010 /* Strong access order */ #define _PAGE_NON_IDEMPOTENT 0x00020 /* non idempotent memory */ #define _PAGE_TOLERANT 0x00030 /* tolerant memory, cache inhibited */ To prevent any issues if these particulars ever change, add _PAGE_SAO to the mask.

Within cxl module, iteration over array 'adapter->afu' may be racy at few points as it might be simultaneously read during an EEH and its contents being set to NULL while driver is being unloaded or unbound from the adapter. This might result in a NULL pointer to 'struct afu' being de-referenced during an EEH thereby causing a kernel oops. This patch fixes this by making sure that all access to the array 'adapter->afu' is wrapped within the context of spin-lock 'adapter->afu_list_lock'.

On pseries systems, performing a partition migration can result in altering the nodes a CPU is assigned to on the destination system. For exampl, pre-migration on the source system CPUs are in node 1 and 3, post-migration on the destination system CPUs are in nodes 2 and 3. Handling the node change for a CPU can cause corruption in the slab cache if we hit a timing where a CPUs node is changed while cache_reap() is invoked. The corruption occurs because the slab cache code appears to rely on the CPU and slab cache pages being on the same node. The current dynamic updating of a CPUs node done in arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c does not prevent us from hitting this scenario. Changing the device tree property update notification handler that recognizes an affinity change for a CPU to do a full DLPAR remove and add of the CPU instead of dynamically changing its node resolves this issue.

A new self test that forces MSR[TS] to be set without calling any TM instruction. This test also tries to cause a page fault at a signal handler, exactly between MSR[TS] set and tm_recheckpoint(), forcing thread->texasr to be rewritten with TEXASR[FS] = 0, which will cause a BUG when tm_recheckpoint() is called. This test is not deterministic, since it is hard to guarantee that the page access will cause a page fault. In order to force more page faults at signal context, the signal handler and the ucontext are being mapped into a MADV_DONTNEED memory chunks. Tests have shown that the bug could be exposed with few interactions in a buggy kernel. This test is configured to loop 5000x, having a good chance to hit the kernel issue in just one run. This self test takes less than two seconds to run. This test uses set/getcontext because the kernel will recheckpoint zeroed structures, causing the test to segfault, which is undesired because the test needs to rerun, so, there is a signal handler for SIGSEGV which will restart the test. v2: Uses the MADV_DONTNEED memory advice v3: Fix memcpy and 32-bits compilation v4: Does not define unused macros Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct foo { int stuff; void *entry[]; }; instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

UNAME26 is a mechanism to report Linux's version as 2.6.x, for compatibility with old/broken software. Due to the way it is implemented, it would have to be updated after 5.0, to keep the resulting versions unique. Linus Torvalds argued: "Do we actually need this? I'd rather let it bitrot, and just let it return random versions. It will just start again at 2.4.60, won't it? Anybody who uses UNAME26 for a 5.x kernel might as well think it's still 4.x. The user space is so old that it can't possibly care about differences between 4.x and 5.x, can it? The only thing that matters is that it shows "2.4.<largeenough>", which it will do regardless" Signed-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer <j.neuschaefer@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
