If CONFIG_KASAN is enabled and gcc is configured with --disable-initfini-array and/or gold linker is used, gcc emits .ctors/.dtors and .text.startup/.text.exit sections instead of .init_array/.fini_array. .dtors section is not explicitly accounted in the linker script and messes vvar/percpu layout.

early_page_uninitialised looks up an arbitrary PFN. While a machine without node 0 will boot with "mm, page_alloc: Always return a valid node from early_pfn_to_nid", it works because it assumes that nodes are always in PFN order. This is not guaranteed so this patch adds robustness by always checking if the node being checked is online.

early_pfn_to_nid can return node 0 if a PFN is invalid on machines that has no node 0. A machine with only node 1 was observed to crash with the following message: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 000000000002a3c8 PGD 0 Modules linked in: Hardware name: Supermicro H8DSP-8/H8DSP-8, BIOS 080011 06/30/2006 task: ffffffff81c0d500 ti: ffffffff81c00000 task.ti: ffffffff81c00000 RIP: reserve_bootmem_region+0x6a/0xef CR2: 000000000002a3c8 CR3: 0000000001c06000 CR4: 00000000000006b0 Call Trace: free_all_bootmem+0x4b/0x12a mem_init+0x70/0xa3 start_kernel+0x25b/0x49b The problem is that early_page_uninitialised uses the early_pfn_to_nid helper which returns node 0 for invalid PFNs. No caller of early_pfn_to_nid cares except early_page_uninitialised. This patch has early_pfn_to_nid always return a valid node.

There are two bugs on qlist_move_cache(). One is that qlist's tail isn't set properly. curr->next can be NULL since it is singly linked list and NULL value on tail is invalid if there is one item on qlist. Another one is that if cache is matched, qlist_put() is called and it will set curr->next to NULL. It would cause to stop the loop prematurely. These problems come from complicated implementation so I'd like to re-implement it completely. Implementation in this patch is really simple. Iterate all qlist_nodes and put them to appropriate list. Unfortunately, I got this bug sometime ago and lose oops message. But, the bug looks trivial and no need to attach oops.

madvise_free_huge_pmd should return 0 if the fallback PTE operations are required. In madvise_free_huge_pmd, if part pages of THP are discarded, the THP will be split and fallback PTE operations should be used if splitting succeeds. But the original code will make fallback PTE operations skipped, after splitting succeeds. Fix that via make madvise_free_huge_pmd return 0 after splitting successfully, so that the fallback PTE operations will be done.

It's possible to isolate some freepages in a pageblock and then fail split_free_page() due to the low watermark check. In this case, we hit VM_BUG_ON() because the freeing scanner terminated early without a contended lock or enough freepages. This should never have been a VM_BUG_ON() since it's not a fatal condition. It should have been a VM_WARN_ON() at best, or even handled gracefully. Regardless, we need to terminate anytime the full pageblock scan was not done. The logic belongs in isolate_freepages_block(), so handle its state gracefully by terminating the pageblock loop and making a note to restart at the same pageblock next time since it was not possible to complete the scan this time.

Xiaolong Ye reported lock debug warnings triggered by the following commit: 8de4a0066106 ("perf/x86: Convert the core to the hotplug state machine") The bug is the following: the cpuhp_bp_states[] array is cut short when CONFIG_SMP=n, but the dynamically registered callbacks are stored nevertheless and happily scribble outside of the array bounds... We need to store them in case that the state is unregistered so we can invoke the teardown function. That's independent of CONFIG_SMP. Make sure the array is large enough.

Currently the two are unioned together, but I don't think that's safe. It looks like get_cached_acl could race with the last put in posix_acl_release. get_cached_acl calls atomic_inc_not_zero on a_refcount, but that field could have already been clobbered by call_rcu, and may no longer be zero.

The well-spotted fallocate undo fix is good in most cases, but not when fallocate failed on the very first page. index 0 then passes lend -1 to shmem_undo_range(), and that has two bad effects: (a) that it will undo every fallocation throughout the file, unrestricted by the current range; but more importantly (b) it can cause the undo to hang, because lend -1 is treated as truncation, which makes it keep on retrying until every page has gone, but those already fully instantiated will never go away. Big thank you to xfstests generic/269 which demonstrates this.

The EFI firmware on Macs contains a full-fledged network stack for downloading OS X images from osrecovery.apple.com. Unfortunately on Macs introduced 2011 and 2012, EFI brings up the Broadcom 4331 wireless card on every boot and leaves it enabled even after ExitBootServices has been called. The card continues to assert its IRQ line, causing spurious interrupts if the IRQ is shared. It also corrupts memory by DMAing received packets, allowing for remote code execution over the air. This only stops when a driver is loaded for the wireless card, which may be never if the driver is not installed or blacklisted. The issue seems to be constrained to the Broadcom 4331. Chris Milsted has verified that the newer Broadcom 4360 built into the MacBookPro11,3 (2013/2014) does not exhibit this behaviour. The chances that Apple will ever supply a firmware fix for the older machines appear to be zero. The solution is to reset the card on boot by writing to a reset bit in its mmio space. This must be done as an early quirk and not as a plain vanilla PCI quirk to successfully combat memory corruption by DMAed packets: Matthew Garrett found out in 2012 that the packets are written to EfiBootServicesData memory (http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/11235.html). This type of memory is made available to the page allocator by efi_free_boot_services(). Plain vanilla PCI quirks run much later, in subsys initcall level. In-between a time window would be open for memory corruption. Random crashes occurring in this time window and attributed to DMAed packets have indeed been observed in the wild by Chris Bainbridge. When Matthew Garrett analyzed the memory corruption issue in 2012, he sought to fix it with a grub quirk which transitions the card to D3hot: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/commit/?id=9d34bb85da56 This approach does not help users with other bootloaders and while it may prevent DMAed packets, it does not cure the spurious interrupts emanating from the card. Unfortunately the card's mmio space is inaccessible in D3hot, so to reset it, we have to undo the effect of Matthew's grub patch and transition the card back to D0. Note that the quirk takes a few shortcuts to reduce the amount of code: The size of BAR 0 and the location of the PM capability is identical on all affected machines and therefore hardcoded. Only the address of BAR 0 differs between models. Also, it is assumed that the BCMA core currently mapped is the 802.11 core. The EFI driver seems to always take care of this. Michael Büsch, Bjorn Helgaas and Matt Fleming contributed feedback towards finding the best solution to this problem. The following should be a comprehensive list of affected models: iMac13,1 2012 21.5" [Root Port 00:1c.3 = 8086:1e16] iMac13,2 2012 27" [Root Port 00:1c.3 = 8086:1e16] Macmini5,1 2011 i5 2.3 GHz [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12] Macmini5,2 2011 i5 2.5 GHz [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12] Macmini5,3 2011 i7 2.0 GHz [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12] Macmini6,1 2012 i5 2.5 GHz [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12] Macmini6,2 2012 i7 2.3 GHz [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12] MacBookPro8,1 2011 13" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12] MacBookPro8,2 2011 15" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12] MacBookPro8,3 2011 17" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12] MacBookPro9,1 2012 15" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12] MacBookPro9,2 2012 13" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12] MacBookPro10,1 2012 15" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12] MacBookPro10,2 2012 13" [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12] For posterity, spurious interrupts caused by the Broadcom 4331 wireless card resulted in splats like this (stacktrace omitted): irq 17: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) handlers: [<ffffffff81374370>] pcie_isr [<ffffffffc0704550>] sdhci_irq [sdhci] threaded [<ffffffffc07013c0>] sdhci_thread_irq [sdhci] [<ffffffffc0a0b960>] azx_interrupt [snd_hda_codec] Disabling IRQ #17 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79301 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111781 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728916 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=895951#c16 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1009819 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1098621 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1149632#c5 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279130 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1332732 Tested-by: Konstantin Simanov <k.simanov@stlk.ru> # [MacBookPro8,1] Tested-by: Lukas Wunner <lukas@wunner.de> # [MacBookPro9,1] Tested-by: Bryan Paradis <bryan.paradis@gmail.com> # [MacBookPro9,2] Tested-by: Andrew Worsley <amworsley@gmail.com> # [MacBookPro10,1] Tested-by: Chris Bainbridge <chris.bainbridge@gmail.com> # [MacBookPro10,2] Signed-off-by: Lukas Wunner <lukas@wunner.de> Acked-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Acked-by: Matt Fleming <matt@codeblueprint.co.uk> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: Chris Milsted <cmilsted@redhat.com> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: H.

We used to scan secondary buses until the following commit that was applied in 2009: 8659c406 ("x86: only scan the root bus in early PCI quirks") which commit constrained early quirks to the root bus only. Its motivation was to prevent application of the nvidia_bugs quirk on secondary buses. We're about to add a quirk to reset the Broadcom 4331 wireless card on 2011/2012 Macs, which is located on a secondary bus behind a PCIe root port. To facilitate that, reintroduce scanning of secondary buses. The commit message of 8659c406 notes that scanning only the root bus "saves quite some unnecessary scanning work". The algorithm used prior to 8659c406 was particularly time consuming because it scanned buses 0 to 31 brute force. To avoid lengthening boot time, employ a recursive strategy which only scans buses that are actually reachable from the root bus. Yinghai Lu pointed out that the secondary bus number read from a bridge's config space may be invalid, in particular a value of 0 would cause an infinite loop. The PCI core goes beyond that and recurses to a child bus only if its bus number is greater than the parent bus number (see pci_scan_bridge()). Since the root bus is numbered 0, this implies that secondary buses may not be 0. Do the same on early scanning. If this algorithm is found to significantly impact boot time or cause infinite loops on broken hardware, it would be possible to limit its recursion depth: The Broadcom 4331 quirk applies at depth 1, all others at depth 0, so the bus need not be scanned deeper than that for now. An alternative approach would be to revert to scanning only the root bus, and apply the Broadcom 4331 quirk to the root ports 8086:1c12, 8086:1e12 and 8086:1e16. Apple always positioned the card behind either of these three ports. The quirk would then check presence of the card in slot 0 below the root port and do its deed.

Since the following commit: 8659c406 ("x86: only scan the root bus in early PCI quirks") ... early quirks are only applied to devices on the root bus. The motivation was to prevent application of the nvidia_bugs quirk on secondary buses. We're about to reintroduce scanning of secondary buses for a quirk to reset the Broadcom 4331 wireless card on 2011/2012 Macs. To prevent regressions, open code the requirement to apply nvidia_bugs only on the root bus.

Mathieu Desnoyers reported that the STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD macro wasn't working with the lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode() function in the lttng-modules code. Usually the relocation created by STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD creates a reference to a section symbol like this: Offset Type Value Addend Name 000000000000000000 X86_64_64 000000000000000000 +3136 .text But in this case it created a reference to a function symbol: Offset Type Value Addend Name 000000000000000000 X86_64_64 0x00000000000003a0 +0 lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode To be honest I have no idea what causes gcc to decide to do one over the other. But both are valid ELF, so add support for the function symbol.

There is an order issue in ec_remove_handlers() that acpi_ec_stop() is called before removing the operation region handler. That is incorrect, because the operation region handler removal triggers _REG(DISCONNECT) which may result in new EC transactions to carry out. That existing issue has been triggered by the following commit: Commit: dcf15cbd Subject: ACPI / EC: Fix a boot EC regresion by restoring boot EC which changed the driver to call ec_remove_handlers() after invoking _REG(CONNECT), so the issue has become visible.
