Stackdepot doesn't work well with CONFIG_UNWINDER_GUESS=y. The 'guess' unwinder generate awfully large and inaccurate stacktraces, thus stackdepot can't deduplicate stacktraces because they all look like unique.

If something calls ioremap() with an address not aligned to PAGE_SIZE, the returned address might be not aligned as well. This led to a probe registered on exactly the returned address, but the entire page was armed for mmiotracing. On calling iounmap() the address passed to unregister_kmmio_probe() was PAGE_SIZE aligned by the caller leading to a complete freeze of the machine. We should always page align addresses while (un)registerung mappings, because the mmiotracer works on top of pages, not mappings. We still keep track of the probes based on their real addresses and lengths though, because the mmiotrace still needs to know what are mapped memory regions. Also move the call to mmiotrace_iounmap() prior page aligning the address, so that all probes are unregistered properly, otherwise the kernel ends up failing memory allocations randomly after disabling the mmiotracer.

If the machine does not support the paging mode for which the kernel was compiled, the boot process cannot continue. It's not possible to let the kernel detect the mismatch as it does not even reach the point where cpu features can be evaluted due to a triple fault in the KASLR setup. Instead of instantaneous silent reboot, emit an error message which gives the user the information why the boot fails.

Documentation/x86/topology.txt defines smp_num_siblings as "The number of threads in a core". Since commit bbb65d2d ("x86: use cpuid vector 0xb when available for detecting cpu topology") smp_num_siblings is the maximum number of threads in a core. If Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) is disabled on a system, smp_num_siblings is 2 and not 1 as expected. Use topology_max_smt_threads(), which contains the active numer of threads, in the __max_logical_packages calculation. On a single socket, single core, single thread system __max_smt_threads has not been updated when the __max_logical_packages calculation happens, so its zero which makes the package estimate fail. Initialize it to one, which is the minimum number of threads on a core. [ tglx: Folded the __max_smt_threads fix in ] Fixes: b4c0a732 ("x86/smpboot: Fix __max_logical_packages estimate") Reported-by:

Returning 'int' from time() is also a bit questionable, as it causes an overflow in y2038 even on 64-bit architectures that use a 64-bit time_t type. On 32-bit architecture with 64-bit time_t, time() should always be implement by the C library by calling a (to be added) clock_gettime() variant that takes a sufficiently wide argument.

__restore_processor_context() had a couple of ordering bugs. It restored GSBASE after calling load_gs_index(), and the latter can call into tracing code. It also tried to restore segment registers before restoring the LDT, which is straight-up wrong. Reorder the code so that we restore GSBASE, then the descriptor tables, then the segments. This fixes two bugs. First, it fixes a regression that broke resume under certain configurations due to irqflag tracing in native_load_gs_index(). Second, it fixes resume when the userspace process that initiated suspect had funny segments. The latter can be reproduced by compiling this: // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 /* * ldt_echo.c - Echo argv[1] while using an LDT segment */ int main(int argc, char **argv) { int ret; size_t len; char *buf; const struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = 0, .base_addr = 0, .limit = 0xfffff, .seg_32bit = 1, .contents = 0, /* Data, grow-up */ .read_exec_only = 0, .limit_in_pages = 1, .seg_not_present = 0, .useable = 0 }; if (argc != 2) errx(1, "Usage: %s STRING", argv[0]); len = asprintf(&buf, "%s\n", argv[1]); if (len < 0) errx(1, "Out of memory"); ret = syscall(SYS_modify_ldt, 1, &desc, sizeof(desc)); if (ret < -1) errno = -ret; if (ret) err(1, "modify_ldt"); asm volatile ("movw %0, %%es" :: "rm" ((unsigned short)7)); write(1, buf, len); return 0; } and running ldt_echo >/sys/power/mem Without the fix, the latter causes a triple fault on resume.

The conversion of WARN() to use UD requires the IDT being loaded earlier as any warning between start_secondary() and load_curren_idt() in cpu_init() will result in an unhandled @UD exception and therefore fail the bringup of the CPU.

CR4 modifications are implemented as RMW operations which update a shadow variable and write the result to CR4. The RMW operation is protected by preemption disable, but there is no enforcement or debugging mechanism. CR4 modifications happen also in interrupt context via __native_flush_tlb_global(). This implementation does not affect a interrupted thread context CR4 operation, because the CR4 toggle restores the original content and does not modify the shadow variable. So the current situation seems to be safe, but a recent patch tried to add an actual RMW operation in interrupt context, which will cause subtle corruptions. To prevent that and make the CR4 handling future proof: - Add a lockdep assertion to __cr4_set() which will catch interrupt enabled invocations - Disable interrupts in the cr4 manipulator inlines - Rename cr4_toggle_bits() to cr4_toggle_bits_irqsoff(). This is called from __switch_to_xtra() where interrupts are already disabled and performance matters. All other call sites are not performance critical, so the extra overhead of an additional local_irq_save/restore() pair is not a problem. If new call sites care about performance then the necessary _irqsoff() variants can be added. [ tglx: Condensed the patch by moving the irq protection inside the manipulator functions.

Running this code with IRQs enabled (where dummy_lock is a spinlock): static void check_load_gs_index(void) { /* This will fail. */ load_gs_index(0xffff); spin_lock(&dummy_lock); spin_unlock(&dummy_lock); } Will generate a lockdep warning. The issue is that the actual write to %gs would cause an exception with IRQs disabled, and the exception handler would, as an inadvertent side effect, update irqflag tracing to reflect the IRQs-off status. native_load_gs_index() would then turn IRQs back on and return with irqflag tracing still thinking that IRQs were off. The dummy lock-and-unlock causes lockdep to notice the error and warn. Fix it by adding the missing tracing. Apparently nothing did this in a context where it mattered. I haven't tried to find a code path that would actually exhibit the warning if appropriately nasty user code were running. I suspect that the security impact of this bug is very, very low -- production systems don't run with lockdep enabled, and the warning is mostly harmless anyway. Found during a quick audit of the entry code to try to track down an unrelated bug that Ingo found in some still-in-development code. Signed-off-by:

[ Note, this commit is a cherry-picked version of: d17a1d97: ("x86/mm/kasan: don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow") ... for easier x86 entry code testing and back-porting. ] The KASAN shadow is currently mapped using vmemmap_populate() since that provides a semi-convenient way to map pages into init_top_pgt. However, since that no longer zeroes the mapped pages, it is not suitable for KASAN, which requires zeroed shadow memory. Add kasan_populate_shadow() interface and use it instead of vmemmap_populate(). Besides, this allows us to take advantage of gigantic pages and use them to populate the shadow, which should save us some memory wasted on page tables and reduce TLB pressure.

When I added entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe(), I left TRACE_IRQS_OFF before it. This means that users of entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() were responsible for invoking TRACE_IRQS_OFF, and the one and only user (Xen, added in the same commit) got it wrong. I think this would manifest as a warning if a Xen PV guest with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y were used with context tracking. (The context tracking bit is to cause lockdep to get invoked before we turn IRQs back on.) I haven't tested that for real yet because I can't get a kernel configured like that to boot at all on Xen PV. Move TRACE_IRQS_OFF below the label. Signed-off-by:

Print a rate-limited warning when a user-space program attempts to execute any of the instructions that UMIP protects (i.e., SGDT, SIDT, SLDT, STR and SMSW). This is useful, because when CONFIG_X86_INTEL_UMIP=y is selected and supported by the hardware, user space programs that try to execute such instructions will receive a SIGSEGV signal that they might not expect. In the specific cases for which emulation is provided (instructions SGDT, SIDT and SMSW in protected and virtual-8086 modes), no signal is generated. However, a warning is helpful to encourage updates in such programs to avoid the use of such instructions. Warnings are printed via a customized printk() function that also provides information about the program that attempted to use the affected instructions. Utility macros are defined to wrap umip_printk() for the error and warning kernel log levels. While here, replace an existing call to the generic rate-limited pr_err() with the new umip_pr_err().

A system booted with a small number of cores enabled per package panics because the estimate of __max_logical_packages is too low. This occurs when the total number of active cores across all packages is less than the maximum core count for a single package. e.g.: On a 4 package system with 20 cores/package where only 4 cores are enabled on each package, the value of __max_logical_packages is calculated as DIV_ROUND_UP(16 / 20) = 1 and not 4. Calculate __max_logical_packages after the cpu enumeration has completed. Use the boot cpu's data to extrapolate the number of packages. Signed-off-by:

Analyzing large early boot allocations unveiled the logical package id storage as a prominent memory waste. Since commit 1f12e32f ("x86/topology: Create logical package id") every 64-bit system allocates a 128k array to convert logical package ids. This happens because the array is sized for MAX_LOCAL_APIC which is always 32k on 64bit systems, and it needs 4 bytes for each entry. This is fairly wasteful, especially for the common case of having only one socket, which uses exactly 4 byte out of 128K. There is no user of the package id map which is performance critical, so the lookup is not required to be O(1). Store the logical processor id in cpu_data and use a loop based lookup. To keep the mapping stable accross cpu hotplug operations, add a flag to cpu_data which is set when the CPU is brought up the first time. When the flag is set, then cpu_data is not reinitialized by copying boot_cpu_data on subsequent bringups. [ tglx: Rename the flag to 'initialized', use proper pointers instead of repeated cpu_data(x) evaluation and massage changelog. ] Signed-off-by:

When crosvm is used to boot a kernel as a VM, the SMP MP-table is found at physical address 0x0. This causes mpf_base to be set to 0 and a subsequent "if (!mpf_base)" check in default_get_smp_config() results in the MP-table not being parsed. Further into the boot this results in an oops when attempting a read_apic_id(). Add a boolean variable that is set to true when the MP-table is found. Use this variable for testing if the MP-table was found so that even a value of 0 for mpf_base will result in continued parsing of the MP-table.

One thing /dev/mem access APIs should verify is that there's no way that excessively large pfn's can leak into the high bits of the page table entry. In particular, if people can use "very large physical page addresses" through /dev/mem to set the bits past bit 58 - SOFTW4 and permission key bits and NX bit, that could *really* confuse the kernel. We had an earlier attempt: ce56a86e ("x86/mm: Limit mmap() of /dev/mem to valid physical addresses") ... which turned out to be too restrictive (breaking mem=... bootups for example) and had to be reverted in: 90edaac6 ("Revert "x86/mm: Limit mmap() of /dev/mem to valid physical addresses"") This v2 attempt modifies the original patch and makes sure that mmap(/dev/mem) limits the pfns so that it at least fits in the actual pteval_t architecturally: - Make sure mmap_mem() actually validates that the offset fits in phys_addr_t ( This may be indirectly true due to some other check, but it's not entirely obvious. ) - Change valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() to just use phys_addr_valid() on the top byte ( Top byte is sufficient, because mmap_mem() has already checked that it cannot wrap. ) - Add a few comments about what the valid_phys_addr_range() vs. valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() difference is.

5-level paging provides a 56-bit virtual address space for user space application. But the kernel defaults to mappings below the 47-bit address space boundary, which is the upper bound for 4-level paging, unless an application explicitely request it by using a mmap(2) address hint above the 47-bit boundary. The kernel prevents mappings which spawn across the 47-bit boundary unless mmap(2) was invoked with MAP_FIXED. Add a self-test that covers the corner cases of the interface and validates the correctness of the implementation. [ tglx: Massaged changelog once more ] Signed-off-by:

In case of 5-level paging, the kernel does not place any mapping above 47-bit, unless userspace explicitly asks for it. Userspace can request an allocation from the full address space by specifying the mmap address hint above 47-bit. Nicholas noticed that the current implementation violates this interface: If user space requests a mapping at the end of the 47-bit address space with a length which causes the mapping to cross the 47-bit border (DEFAULT_MAP_WINDOW), then the vma is partially in the address space below and above. Sanity check the mmap address hint so that start and end of the resulting vma are on the same side of the 47-bit border. If that's not the case fall back to the code path which ignores the address hint and allocate from the regular address space below 47-bit. To make the checks consistent, mask out the address hints lower bits (either PAGE_MASK or huge_page_mask()) instead of using ALIGN() which can push them up to the next boundary.

The STR and SLDT instructions are not emulated by the UMIP code, thus there's no functionality in the decoder to identify them. However, a subsequent commit will introduce a warning about the use of all the instructions that UMIP protect/changes, not only those that are emulated. A first step for that is to add the ability to decode/identify them. Plus, now that STR and SLDT are identified, we need to explicitly avoid their emulation (i.e., not rely on successful identification). Group together all the cases that we do not want to emulate: STR, SLDT and user long mode processes. Signed-off-by:

UMIP does cause any performance penalty to the vast majority of x86 code that does not use the legacy instructions affected by UMIP. Also describe UMIP more accurately and explain the behavior that can be expected by the (few) applications that use the affected instructions. Suggested-by:
