kmsg_dump() allows to dump kmesg buffer for various system events: oops, panic, reboot, etc. It provides an interface to register a callback call for clients, and in that callback interface there is a field "max_reason", but it was getting ignored when set to any "reason" higher than KMSG_DUMP_OOPS unless "always_kmsg_dump" was passed as kernel parameter. Allow clients to actually control their "max_reason", and keep the current behavior when "max_reason" is not set.

To turn the KMSG_DUMP_* reasons into a more ordered list, collapse the redundant KMSG_DUMP_(RESTART|HALT|POWEROFF) reasons into KMSG_DUMP_SHUTDOWN. The current users already don't meaningfully distinguish between them, so there's no need to, as discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CA+CK2bAPv5u1ih5y9t5FUnTyximtFCtDYXJCpuyjOyHNOkRdqw@mail.gmail.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200515184434.8470-2-keescook@chromium.org/Reviewed-by: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Acked-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> (powerpc) Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

Move the ftrace log merging logic out of pstore/ram into pstore/ftrace so other backends can use it, like pstore/zone. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200510202436.63222-7-keescook@chromium.org/Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

This changes the ftrace record merging code to be agnostic of pstore/ram, as the first step to making it available as a generic routine for other backends to use, such as pstore/zone.

Refactor device tree size parsing routines to be able to pass a non-zero default value for providing a configurable default for the coming "max_reason" field. Also rename the helpers, since we're not always parsing a size -- we're parsing a u32 and making sure it's not greater than INT_MAX.

If the pstore backend changes, there's no indication in the logs what the console is (it always says "pstore"). Instead, pass through the active backend's name. (Also adjust the selftest to match.)

In order to more cleanly pass around backend names, make the "name" member const. This means the module param needs to be dynamic (technically, it was before, so this actually cleans up a minor memory leak if a backend was specified and then gets unloaded.)

If a backend was unloaded without having first removed all its associated records in pstorefs, subsequent removals would crash while attempting to call into the now missing backend. Add automatic removal from the tree in pstore_unregister(), so that no references to the backend remain.

The pstore.update_ms value was being disabled during pstore_unregister(), which would cause any prior value to go unnoticed on the next pstore_register(). Instead, just let del_timer() stop the timer, which was always sufficient. This additionally refactors the timer reset code and allows the timer to be enabled if the module parameter is changed away from the default.

Currently pstore can only have a single backend attached at a time, and it tracks the active backend via "psinfo", under a lock. The locking for this does not need to be a spinlock, and in order to avoid may_sleep() issues during future changes to pstore_unregister(), switch to a mutex instead.

There is no reason to be doing a module get/put in pstore_register(), since the module calling pstore_register() cannot be unloaded since it hasn't finished its initialization.

This sorts the actual field names too, potentially causing even more chaos and confusion at merge time if you have edited the MAINTAINERS file. But the end result is a more consistent layout, and hopefully it's a one-time pain minimized by doing this just before the -rc1 release.

They are all supposed to be sorted, but people who add new entries don't always know the alphabet. Plus sometimes the entry names get edited, and people don't then re-order the entry. Let's see how painful this will be for merging purposes (the MAINTAINERS file is often edited in various different trees), but Joe claims there's relatively few patches in -next that touch this, and doing it just before -rc1 is likely the best time. Fingers crossed. This was scripted with /scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS but then I also ended up manually upper-casing a few entry names that stood out when looking at the end result.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of three patches to fix the fallout of the newly added split lock detection feature. It addressed the case where a KVM guest triggers a split lock #AC and KVM reinjects it into the guest which is not prepared to handle it. Add proper sanity checks which prevent the unconditional injection into the guest and handles the #AC on the host side in the same way as user space detections are handled. Depending on the detection mode it either warns and disables detection for the task or kills the task if the mode is set to fatal" * tag 'x86-urgent-2020-04-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: KVM: VMX: Extend VMXs #AC interceptor to handle split lock #AC in guest KVM: x86: Emulate split-lock access as a write in emulator x86/split_lock: Provide handle_guest_split_lock()

Two types of #AC can be generated in Intel CPUs: 1. legacy alignment check #AC 2. split lock #AC Reflect #AC back into the guest if the guest has legacy alignment checks enabled or if split lock detection is disabled. If the #AC is not a legacy one and split lock detection is enabled, then invoke handle_guest_split_lock() which will either warn and disable split lock detection for this task or force SIGBUS on it.

Emulate split-lock accesses as writes if split lock detection is on to avoid #AC during emulation, which will result in a panic().

Without at least minimal handling for split lock detection induced #AC, VMX will just run into the same problem as the VMWare hypervisor, which was reported by Kenneth. It will inject the #AC blindly into the guest whether the guest is prepared or not. Provide a function for guest mode which acts depending on the host SLD mode. If mode == sld_warn, treat it like user space, i.e. emit a warning, disable SLD and mark the task accordingly. Otherwise force SIGBUS.
