      SELinux runs with secureexec for all non-"noatsecure" domain transitions,
      which means lots of processes end up hitting the stack hard-limit change
      that was introduced in order to fix a race with prlimit(). That race fix
      will need to be redesigned.

      parisc: Reduce thread stack to 16 kb · da57c541
      John David Anglin authored
      In testing, I found that the thread stack can be 16 kB when using an irq
      stack.  Without it, the thread stack needs to be 32 kB. Currently, the irq
      stack is 32 kB. While it probably could be 16 kB, I would prefer to leave it
      as is for safety.

      Revert "parisc: Re-enable interrupts early" · 9352aead
      John David Anglin authored
      This reverts commit 5c38602d.
      
      Interrupts can't be enabled early because the register saves are done on
      the thread stack prior to switching to the IRQ stack.  This caused stack
      overflows and the thread stack needed increasing to 32k.  Even then,
      stack overflows still occasionally occurred.
      
      Background:
      Even with a 32 kB thread stack, I have seen instances where the thread
      stack overflowed on the mx3210 buildd.  Detection of stack overflow only
      occurs when we have an external interrupt.  When an external interrupt
      occurs, we switch to the thread stack if we are not already on a kernel
      stack.  Then, registers and specials are saved to the kernel stack.
      
      The bug occurs in intr_return where interrupts are reenabled prior to
      returning from the interrupt.  This was done incase we need to schedule
      or deliver signals.  However, it introduces the possibility that
      multiple external interrupts may occur on the thread stack and cause a
      stack overflow.  These might not be detected and cause the kernel to
      misbehave in random ways.
      
      This patch changes the code back to only reenable interrupts when we are
      going to schedule or deliver signals.  As a result, we generally return
      from an interrupt before reenabling interrupts.  This minimizes the
      growth of the thread stack.

      There is currently no way to force CPU bug bits like CPU feature bits. That

      There is no generic way to test whether a kernel is running on a specific

      Make the hypervisor type enum unconditionally available and provide a

      x86/paravirt: Dont patch flush_tlb_single · a0357954
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      native_flush_tlb_single() will be changed with the upcoming
      PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION feature. This requires to have more code in
      there than INVLPG.
      
      Remove the paravirt patching for it.
