commit d2922422c4 upstream.
The cpu feature flags are not ever going to change, so warning
everytime can cause a lot of kernel log spam
(in our case more than 10GB/hour).
The warning seems to only occur when nested virtualization is
enabled, so it's probably triggered by a KVM bug. This is a
sensible and safe change anyway, and the KVM bug fix might not
be suitable for stable releases anyway.

commit 83c133cf11 upstream.
The NMI entry code that switches to the normal kernel stack needs to
be very careful not to clobber any extra stack slots on the NMI
stack. The code is fine under the assumption that SWAPGS is just a
normal instruction, but that assumption isn't really true. Use
SWAPGS_UNSAFE_STACK instead.
This is part of a fix for some random crashes that Sasha saw.

commit fc57a7c680 upstream.
PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME generates this code (using nmi as an
example, trimmed for readability):
ff 15 00 00 00 00 callq *0x0(%rip) # 2796 <nmi+0x6>
2792: R_X86_64_PC32 pv_irq_ops+0x2c
That's a call through a function pointer to regular C function that
does nothing on native boots, but that function isn't protected
against kprobes, isn't marked notrace, and is certainly not
guaranteed to preserve any registers if the compiler is feeling
perverse. This is bad news for a CLBR_NONE operation.
Of course, if everything works correctly, once paravirt ops are
patched, it gets nopped out, but what if we hit this code before
paravirt ops are patched in? This can potentially cause breakage
that is very difficult to debug.
A more subtle failure is possible here, too: if _paravirt_nop uses
the stack at all (even just to push RBP), it will overwrite the "NMI
executing" variable if it's called in the NMI prologue.
The Xen case, perhaps surprisingly, is fine, because it's already
written in asm.
Fix all of the cases that default to paravirt_nop (including
adjust_exception_frame) with a big hammer: replace paravirt_nop with
an asm function that is just a ret instruction.
The Xen case may have other problems, so document them.
This is part of a fix for some random crashes that Sasha saw.

commit 03da3ff1cf upstream.
In 2007, commit 07190a08ee ("Mark TSC on GeodeLX reliable")
bypassed verification of the TSC on Geode LX. However, this code
(now in the check_system_tsc_reliable() function in
arch/x86/kernel/tsc.c) was only present if CONFIG_MGEODE_LX was
set.
OpenWRT has recently started building its generic Geode target
for Geode GX, not LX, to include support for additional
platforms. This broke the timekeeping on LX-based devices,
because the TSC wasn't marked as reliable:
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/20531
By adding a runtime check on is_geode_lx(), we can also include
the fix if CONFIG_MGEODEGX1 or CONFIG_X86_GENERIC are set, thus
fixing the problem.

commit 5d7c631d92 upstream.
The APIC LVTT register is MMIO mapped but the TSC_DEADLINE register is an
MSR. The write to the TSC_DEADLINE MSR is not serializing, so it's not
guaranteed that the write to LVTT has reached the APIC before the
TSC_DEADLINE MSR is written. In such a case the write to the MSR is
ignored and as a consequence the local timer interrupt never fires.
The SDM decribes this issue for xAPIC and x2APIC modes. The
serialization methods recommended by the SDM differ.
xAPIC:
"1. Memory-mapped write to LVT Timer Register, setting bits 18:17 to 10b.
2. WRMSR to the IA32_TSC_DEADLINE MSR a value much larger than current time-stamp counter.
3. If RDMSR of the IA32_TSC_DEADLINE MSR returns zero, go to step 2.
4. WRMSR to the IA32_TSC_DEADLINE MSR the desired deadline."
x2APIC:
"To allow for efficient access to the APIC registers in x2APIC mode,
the serializing semantics of WRMSR are relaxed when writing to the
APIC registers. Thus, system software should not use 'WRMSR to APIC
registers in x2APIC mode' as a serializing instruction. Read and write
accesses to the APIC registers will occur in program order. A WRMSR to
an APIC register may complete before all preceding stores are globally
visible; software can prevent this by inserting a serializing
instruction, an SFENCE, or an MFENCE before the WRMSR."
The xAPIC method is to just wait for the memory mapped write to hit
the LVTT by checking whether the MSR write has reached the hardware.
There is no reason why a proper MFENCE after the memory mapped write would
not do the same. Andi Kleen confirmed that MFENCE is sufficient for the
xAPIC case as well.
Issue MFENCE before writing to the TSC_DEADLINE MSR. This can be done
unconditionally as all CPUs which have TSC_DEADLINE also have MFENCE
support.

commit 833b5794e3 upstream.
The cpu booting of exynos5422 has been still broken since we discussed
it in last year[1]. This patch is inspired from Odroid XU3
code (Actually, it was from samsung exynos vendor kernel)[2]. This weird
reset code was founded exynos5420 octa cores series SoCs and only
required for the first boot core is the Little core (Cortex A7).
Some of the exynos5420 boards and all of the exynos5422 boards will require
this code.
There is two ways to check the little core is the first cpu. One is
checking GPG2CON[1] GPIO value and the other is checking the cluster
number of the first cpu. I selected the latter because it's more easier
than the former.

commit 7ae85dc768 upstream.
In (23a4e40 arm: kgdb: Handle read-only text / modules) we moved to
using patch_text() to set breakpoints so that we could handle the case
when we had CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. That patch used patch_text().
Unfortunately, patch_text() assumes that we're not in atomic context
when it runs since it needs to grab a mutex and also wait for other
CPUs to stop (which it does with a completion).
This would result in a stack crawl if you had
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP and tried to set a breakpoint in kgdb. The
crawl looked something like:

As it turns out, this is caused by incorrect code being emitted for
the string() function in lib/vsprintf.c. The following code
if (!(spec.flags & LEFT)) {
while (len < spec.field_width--) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = ' ';
++buf;
}
}
for (i = 0; i < len; ++i) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = *s;
++buf; ++s;
}
while (len < spec.field_width--) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = ' ';
++buf;
}
when called with len == 0, triggers an issue in the GCC SRA optimization
pass (Scalar Replacement of Aggregates), which handles promotion of signed
struct members incorrectly. This is a known but as yet unresolved issue.
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65932). In this particular
case, it is causing the second while loop to be executed erroneously a
single time, causing the additional space characters to be printed.
So disable the optimization by passing -fno-ipa-sra.

When a kernel is built covering ARMv6 to ARMv7, we omit to clear the
IT state when entering a signal handler. This can cause the first
few instructions to be conditionally executed depending on the parent
context.
In any case, the original test for >= ARMv7 is broken - ARMv6 can have
Thumb-2 support as well, and an ARMv6T2 specific build would omit this
code too.
Relax the test back to ARMv6 or greater. This results in us always
clearing the IT state bits in the PSR, even on CPUs where these bits
are reserved. However, they're reserved for the IT state, so this
should cause no harm.

that is only allowed if preemption is disabled or the currrent task is
bound to the local cpu (e.g. kernel worker).
With commit f781951299 ("kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameter") KVM
calls single_task_running. If CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled that
generates a lot of kernel messages.
To avoid adding preemption in that cases, as it would limit the usefulness,
we change single_task_running to access directly the cpu local runqueue.

commit 601083cffb upstream.
print_aggr() fails to print per-core/per-socket statistics after commit
582ec0829b ("perf stat: Fix per-socket output bug for uncore events")
if events have differnt cpus. Because in print_aggr(), aggr_get_id needs
index (not cpu id) to find core/pkg id. Also, evsel cpu maps should be
used to get aggregated id.
Here is an example:
Counting events cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/. (Uncore event has
cpumask 0,18)
$ perf stat -e cycles,uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/ -C0,18 --per-core sleep 2
Without this patch, it failes to get CPU 18 result.
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,18':
S0-C0 1 7526851 cycles
S0-C0 1 1.05 MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/
S1-C0 0 <not counted> cycles
S1-C0 0 <not counted> MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/
With this patch, it can get both CPU0 and CPU18 result.
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0,18':
S0-C0 1 6327768 cycles
S0-C0 1 0.47 MiB uncore_imc_0/cas_count_read/

commit e8e6d37e73 upstream.
When we introduce a new sort key, we need to update the
hists__calc_col_len() function accordingly, otherwise the width
will be limited to strlen(header).
We can't update it when obtaining a line value for a column (for
instance, in sort__srcline_cmp()), because we reset it all when doing a
resort (see hists__output_recalc_col_len()), so we need to, from what is
in the hist_entry fields, set each of the column widths.

commit b5cabbcbd1 upstream.
A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the
buildid cache. e.g.
perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore
To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating
against /proc/kcore.
The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the
problem was found with v1.63).
The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails
because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr().
The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default
initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be
necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is
subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr().
Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be
removed also.
Committer notes:
Note to stable@kernel.org, from Adrian in the cover letter for this
patchkit:
The "Fix copying of /proc/kcore" problem goes back to v3.13 if you think

commit 53147b6cab upstream.
Commit a2b3471b5b ("toshiba_acpi: Use the Hotkey Event Type function
for keymap choosing") changed the *setup_keyboard function to query for
the Hotkey Event Type to help choose the correct keymap, but turns out
that here are certain Toshiba models out there not implementing this
feature, and thus, failing to continue the input device registration and
leaving such laptops without hotkey support.
This patch changes such check, and instead of returning an error if
the Hotkey Event Type is not present, we simply inform userspace about it,
changing the message printed from err to notice, making the function
responsible for registering the input device to continue.
This issue was found on a Toshiba Portege Z30-B, but there might be
some other models out there affected by this regression as well.

commit 3e03c4b01d upstream.
The iscsi target core teardown sequence calls wait_conn for
all active commands to finish gracefully by:
- move the queue-pair to error state
- drain all the completions
- wait for the core to finish handling all session commands
However, when tearing down a session while there are sequenced
commands that are still waiting for unsolicited data outs, we can
block forever as these are missing an extra reference put.
We basically need the equivalent of iscsit_free_queue_reqs_for_conn()
which is called after wait_conn has returned. Address this by an
explicit walk on conn_cmd_list and put the extra reference.

b9d5c6b7ef ("[SCSI] cleanup setting task state in

and scsi_host_dev_release resulting in the hang when the device goes
away because scsi_error_handler might miss a wake up:
CPU0 CPU1

test_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP)

The most straightforward solution seems to be to invert the ordering of
the set_current_state and kthread_should_stop.
The issue has been noticed during reboot test on a 3.0 based kernel but
the current code seems to be affected in the same way.

commit 2619d7e9c9 upstream.
The internal clocksteering done for fine-grained error
correction uses a logarithmic approximation, so any time
adjtimex() adjusts the clock steering, timekeeping_freqadjust()
quickly approximates the correct clock frequency over a series
of ticks.
Unfortunately, the logic in timekeeping_freqadjust(), introduced
in commit:
dc491596f6 ("timekeeping: Rework frequency adjustments to work better w/ nohz")
used the abs() function with a s64 error value to calculate the
size of the approximated adjustment to be made.
Per include/linux/kernel.h:
"abs() should not be used for 64-bit types (s64, u64, long long) - use abs64()".
Thus on 32-bit platforms, this resulted in the clocksteering to
take a quite dampended random walk trying to converge on the
proper frequency, which caused the adjustments to be made much
slower then intended (most easily observed when large
adjustments are made).
This patch fixes the issue by using abs64() instead.

But you are right we do need an explicit write barrier here to

It's not about being overly smart. It's about actually understanding
what's going on with the code. I've seen too many instances of
people simply sprinkling synchronisation primitives around without
any knowledge of what is happening underneath, which is just a recipe
for creating hard-to-debug races.

The reason this one is OK is because we do not use nlk->portid or
try to get nlk from the hash table before we return to user-space.
However, there is a real bug here that none of these acquire/release
helpers discovered. The two bound tests here used to be a single
one. Now that they are separate it is entirely possible for another
thread to come in the middle and bind the socket. So we need to
repeat the portid check in order to maintain consistency.

The commit 1f770c0a09 ("netlink:
Fix autobind race condition that leads to zero port ID") created
some new races that can occur due to inconcsistencies between the
two port IDs.
Tejun is right that a barrier is unavoidable. Therefore I am
reverting to the original patch that used a boolean to indicate
that a user netlink socket has been bound.
Barriers have been added where necessary to ensure that a valid
portid and the hashed socket is visible.
I have also changed netlink_insert to only return EBUSY if the
socket is bound to a portid different to the requested one. This
combined with only reading nlk->bound once in netlink_bind fixes
a race where two threads that bind the socket at the same time
with different port IDs may both succeed.

Unfortunately it appears that some HW that implements SGMII protocol,

anything with such HW.
This patch enables the auto-negotiation only if explicitly requested with
the 'managed' DT property.

[ Upstream commit 4cba5c2103 in net-next tree,
will be pushed to Linus very soon. ]
Currently the PHY management type is selected by the MAC driver arbitrary.
The decision is based on the presence of the "fixed-link" node and on a
will of the driver's authors.
This caused a regression recently, when mvneta driver suddenly started
to use the in-band status for auto-negotiation on fixed links.
It appears the auto-negotiation may not work when expected by the MAC driver.
Sebastien Rannou explains:
<< Yes, I confirm that my HW does not generate an in-band status. AFAIK, it's
a PHY that aggregates 4xSGMIIs to 1xQSGMII ; the MAC side of the PHY (with
inband status) is connected to the switch through QSGMII, and in this context
we are on the media side of the PHY. >>

This patch introduces the new string property 'managed' that allows
the user to set the management type explicitly.
The supported values are:
"auto" - default. Uses either MDIO or nothing, depending on the presence
of the fixed-link node
