[ Upstream commit 3d89459e ] Fix a bug in uverbs_ioctl_merge that looked at the object's iterator number instead of the method's iterator number when merging methods. While we're at it, make the uverbs_ioctl_merge code a bit more clear and faster.

[ Upstream commit bde0716d ] For AMD Promontory xHCI host, although you can disable USB ports in BIOS settings, those ports will be enabled anyway after you remove a device on that port and re-plug it in again. It's a known limitation of the chip. As a workaround we can clear the PORT_WAKE_BITS.

[ Upstream commit 8cbbf174 ] When exposing data access through debugfs, the correct debugfs_create_*() functions must be used, depending on data type. Remove all casts from data pointers passed to debugfs_create_*() functions, as such casts prevent the compiler from flagging bugs. Correct all wrong usage: - clk.rate is unsigned long, not u32, - clk.flags is u8, not u32, which exposed the successive clk.rate_offset and clk.src_offset fields.

[ Upstream commit d3be6d2a ] For platform_suspend_ops, the finish call is too late to re-enable wake irqs and we need re-enable wake irqs on wake call instead. Otherwise noirq resume for devices has already happened. And then dev_pm_disarm_wake_irq() has already disabled the dedicated wake irqs when the interrupt triggers and the wake irq is never handled. For devices that are already in PM runtime suspended state when we enter suspend this means that a possible wake irq will never trigger. And this can lead into a situation where a device has a pending padconf wake irq, and the device will stay unresponsive to any further wake irqs. This issue can be easily reproduced by setting serial console log level to zero, letting the serial console idle, and suspend the system from an ssh terminal. Then try to wake up the system by typing to the serial console. Note that this affects only omap3 PRM interrupt as that's currently the only omap variant that does anything in omap_pm_wake(). In general, for the wake irqs to work, the interrupt must have either IRQF_NO_SUSPEND or IRQF_EARLY_RESUME set for it to trigger before dev_pm_disarm_wake_irq() disables the wake irqs.

[ Upstream commit db35340c ] When more than one GP timers are used as kernel system timers and the corresponding nodes in device-tree are marked with the same "disabled" property, then the "attr" field of the property will be initialized more than once as the property being added to sys file system via __of_add_property_sysfs(). In __of_add_property_sysfs(), the "name" field of pp->attr.attr is set directly to the return value of safe_name(), without taking care of whether it's already a valid pointer to a memory block. If it is, its old value will always be overwritten by the new one and the memory block allocated before will a "ghost", then a kmemleak happened. That the same "disabled" property being added to different nodes of device tree would cause that kind of kmemleak overhead, at least once. To fix it, allocate the property dynamically, and delete static one.

commit a048a07d upstream. On some CPUs we can prevent a vulnerability related to store-to-load forwarding by preventing store forwarding between privilege domains, by inserting a barrier in kernel entry and exit paths. This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9 powerpc CPUs. Barriers must be inserted generally before the first load after moving to a higher privilege, and after the last store before moving to a lower privilege, HV and PR privilege transitions must be protected. Barriers are added as patch sections, with all kernel/hypervisor entry points patched, and the exit points to lower privilge levels patched similarly to the RFI flush patching. Firmware advertisement is not implemented yet, so CPU flush types are hard coded. Thanks to Michal Suchánek for bug fixes and review.

commit 501a78cb upstream. The recent LPM changes to setup_rfi_flush() are causing some section mismatch warnings because we removed the __init annotation on setup_rfi_flush(): The function setup_rfi_flush() references the function __init ppc64_bolted_size(). the function __init memblock_alloc_base(). The references are actually in init_fallback_flush(), but that is inlined into setup_rfi_flush(). These references are safe because: - only pseries calls setup_rfi_flush() at runtime - pseries always passes L1D_FLUSH_FALLBACK at boot - so the fallback flush area will always be allocated - so the check in init_fallback_flush() will always return early: /* Only allocate the fallback flush area once (at boot time). */ if (l1d_flush_fallback_area) return; - and therefore we won't actually call the freed init routines. We should rework the code to make it safer by default rather than relying on the above, but for now as a quick-fix just add a __ref annotation to squash the warning.

commit 6232774f upstream. After migration the security feature flags might have changed (e.g., destination system with unpatched firmware), but some flags are not set/clear again in init_cpu_char_feature_flags() because it assumes the security flags to be the defaults. Additionally, if the H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS hypercall fails then init_cpu_char_feature_flags() does not run again, which potentially might leave the system in an insecure or sub-optimal configuration. So, just restore the security feature flags to the defaults assumed by init_cpu_char_feature_flags() so it can set/clear them correctly, and to ensure safe settings are in place in case the hypercall fail.

commit 0f9bdfe3 upstream. The H_CPU_BEHAV_* flags should be checked for in the 'behaviour' field of 'struct h_cpu_char_result' -- 'character' is for H_CPU_CHAR_* flags. Found by playing around with QEMU's implementation of the hypercall: H_CPU_CHAR=0xf000000000000000 H_CPU_BEHAV=0x0000000000000000 This clears H_CPU_BEHAV_FAVOUR_SECURITY and H_CPU_BEHAV_L1D_FLUSH_PR so pseries_setup_rfi_flush() disables 'rfi_flush'; and it also clears H_CPU_CHAR_L1D_THREAD_PRIV flag. So there is no RFI flush mitigation at all for cpu_show_meltdown() to report; but currently it does: Original kernel: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown Mitigation: RFI Flush Patched kernel: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown Not affected H_CPU_CHAR=0x0000000000000000 H_CPU_BEHAV=0xf000000000000000 This sets H_CPU_BEHAV_BNDS_CHK_SPEC_BAR so cpu_show_spectre_v1() should report vulnerable; but currently it doesn't: Original kernel: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v1 Not affected Patched kernel: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v1 Vulnerable Brown-paper-bag-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Fixes: f636c147 ("powerpc/pseries: Set or clear security feature flags") Signed-off-by: Mauricio Faria de Oliveira <mauricfo@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit d6fbe1c5 upstream. Add a definition for cpu_show_spectre_v2() to override the generic version. This has several permuations, though in practice some may not occur we cater for any combination. The most verbose is: Mitigation: Indirect branch serialisation (kernel only), Indirect branch cache disabled, ori31 speculation barrier enabled We don't treat the ori31 speculation barrier as a mitigation on its own, because it has to be *used* by code in order to be a mitigation and we don't know if userspace is doing that. So if that's all we see we say: Vulnerable, ori31 speculation barrier enabled Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 9a868f63 upstream. This commit adds security feature flags to reflect the settings we receive from firmware regarding Spectre/Meltdown mitigations. The feature names reflect the names we are given by firmware on bare metal machines. See the hostboot source for details. Arguably these could be firmware features, but that then requires them to be read early in boot so they're available prior to asm feature patching, but we don't actually want to use them for patching. We may also want to dynamically update them in future, which would be incompatible with the way firmware features work (at the moment at least). So for now just make them separate flags.

commit 0063d61c upstream. Currently the rfi-flush messages print 'Using <type> flush' for all enabled_flush_types, but that is not necessarily true -- as now the fallback flush is always enabled on pseries, but the fixup function overwrites its nop/branch slot with other flush types, if available. So, replace the 'Using <type> flush' messages with '<type> flush is available'. Also, print the patched flush types in the fixup function, so users can know what is (not) being used (e.g., the slower, fallback flush, or no flush type at all if flush is disabled via the debugfs switch).
