Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The most signigicant change here is the addition of a new cpufreq
'P-state' driver for AMD processors as a better replacement for the
venerable acpi-cpufreq driver.
There are also other cpufreq updates (in the core, intel_pstate, ARM
drivers), PM core updates (mostly related to adding new macros for
declaring PM operations which should make the lives of driver
developers somewhat easier), and a bunch of assorted fixes and
cleanups.

rcu/nocb: Allow empty "rcu_nocbs" kernel parameter
Allow the rcu_nocbs kernel parameter to be specified just by itself, without specifying any CPUs. This allows systems administrators to use "rcu_nocbs" to specify that none of the CPUs are to be offloaded at boot time, but than any of them may be offloaded at runtime via cpusets. In contrast, if the "rcu_nocbs" or "nohz_full" kernel parameters are not specified at all, then not only are none of the CPUs offloaded at boot, none of them can be offloaded at runtime, either. While in the area, modernize the description of the "rcuo" kthreads' naming scheme.

rcu-tasks: Use fewer callbacks queues if callback flood ends
By default, when lock contention is encountered, the RCU Tasks flavors of RCU switch to using per-CPU queueing. However, if the callback flood ends, per-CPU queueing continues to be used, which introduces significant additional overhead, especially for callback invocation, which fans out a series of workqueue handlers. This commit therefore switches back to single-queue operation if at the beginning of a grace period there are very few callbacks. The definition of "very few" is set by the rcupdate.rcu_task_collapse_lim module parameter, which defaults to 10. This switch happens in two phases, with the first phase causing future callbacks to be enqueued on CPU 0's queue, but with all queues continuing to be checked for grace periods and callback invocation. The second phase checks to see if an RCU grace period has elapsed and if all remaining RCU-Tasks callbacks are queued on CPU 0. If so, only CPU 0 is checked for future grace periods and callback operation. Of course, the return of contention anywhere during this process will result in returning to per-CPU callback queueing.

rcu-tasks: Use more callback queues if contention encountered
The rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter allows system administrators to tune the number of callback queues used by the RCU Tasks flavors. However if callback storms are infrequent, it would be better to operate with a single queue on a given system unless and until that system actually needed more queues. Systems not needing more queues can then avoid the overhead of checking the extra queues and especially avoid the overhead of fanning workqueue handlers out to all CPUs to invoke callbacks. This commit therefore switches to using all the CPUs' callback queues if call_rcu_tasks_generic() encounters too much lock contention. The amount of lock contention to tolerate defaults to 100 contended lock acquisitions per jiffy, and can be adjusted using the new rcupdate.rcu_task_contend_lim module parameter. Such switching is undertaken only if the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter is negative, which is its default value (-1). This allows savvy systems administrators to set the number of queues to some known good value and to not have to worry about the kernel doing any second guessing.

PM: hibernate: Allow ACPI hardware signature to be honoured
Theoretically, when the hardware signature in FACS changes, the OS is supposed to gracefully decline to attempt to resume from S4: "If the signature has changed, OSPM will not restore the system context and can boot from scratch" In practice, Windows doesn't do this and many laptop vendors do allow the signature to change especially when docking/undocking, so it would be a bad idea to simply comply with the specification by default in the general case. However, there are use cases where we do want the compliant behaviour and we know it's safe. Specifically, when resuming virtual machines where we know the hypervisor has changed sufficiently that resume will fail. We really want to be able to *tell* the guest kernel not to try, so it boots cleanly and doesn't just crash. This patch provides a way to opt in to the spec-compliant behaviour on the command line. A follow-up patch may do this automatically for certain "known good" machines based on a DMI match, or perhaps just for all hypervisor guests since there's no good reason a hypervisor would change the hardware_signature that it exposes to guests *unless* it wants them to obey the ACPI specification.

Values less than zero specify one kthread per CPU, however, the number of kthreads executing concurrently is limited to the number of online CPUs.

Input: i8042 - add deferred probe support
We've got a bug report about the non-working keyboard on ASUS ZenBook UX425UA. It seems that the PS/2 device isn't ready immediately at boot but takes some seconds to get ready. Until now, the only workaround is to defer the probe, but it's available only when the driver is a module. However, many distros, including openSUSE as in the original report, build the PS/2 input drivers into kernel, hence it won't work easily. This patch adds the support for the deferred probe for i8042 stuff as a workaround of the problem above. When the deferred probe mode is enabled and the device couldn't be probed, it'll be repeated with the standard deferred probe mechanism. The deferred probe mode is enabled either via the new option i8042.probe_defer or via the quirk table entry. As of this patch, the quirk table contains only ASUS ZenBook UX425UA. The deferred probe part is based on Fabio's initial work.

hugetlbfs: extend the definition of hugepages parameter to support node allocation
We can specify the number of hugepages to allocate at boot. But the hugepages is balanced in all nodes at present. In some scenarios, we only need hugepages in one node. For example: DPDK needs hugepages which are in the same node as NIC. If DPDK needs four hugepages of 1G size in node1 and system has 16 numa nodes we must reserve 64 hugepages on the kernel cmdline. But only four hugepages are used. The others should be free after boot. If the system memory is low(for example: 64G), it will be an impossible task. So extend the hugepages parameter to support specifying hugepages on a specific node. For example add following parameter: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0:1,1:3 It will allocate 1 hugepage in node0 and 3 hugepages in node1.

hugetlb: support node specified when using cma for gigantic hugepages
Now the size of CMA area for gigantic hugepages runtime allocation is balanced for all online nodes, but we also want to specify the size of CMA per-node, or only one node in some cases, which are similar with patch [1]. For example, on some multi-nodes systems, each node's memory can be different, allocating the same size of CMA for each node is not suitable for the low-memory nodes. Meanwhile some workloads like DPDK mentioned by Zhenguo in patch [1] only need hugepages in one node. On the other hand, we have some machines with multiple types of memory, like DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). On this system, we may want to specify all the hugepages only on DRAM node, or specify the proportion of DRAM node and PMEM node, to tuning the performance of the workloads. Thus this patch adds node format for 'hugetlb_cma' parameter to support specifying the size of CMA per-node. An example is as follows: hugetlb_cma=0:5G,2:5G which means allocating 5G size of CMA area on node 0 and node 2 respectively. And the users should use the node specific sysfs file to allocate the gigantic hugepages if specified the CMA size on that node.

xen/balloon: add late_initcall_sync() for initial ballooning done
When running as PVH or HVM guest with actual memory < max memory the hypervisor is using "populate on demand" in order to allow the guest to balloon down from its maximum memory size. For this to work correctly the guest must not touch more memory pages than its target memory size as otherwise the PoD cache will be exhausted and the guest is crashed as a result of that. In extreme cases ballooning down might not be finished today before the init process is started, which can consume lots of memory. In order to avoid random boot crashes in such cases, add a late init call to wait for ballooning down having finished for PVH/HVM guests. Warn on console if initial ballooning fails, panic() after stalling for more than 3 minutes per default. Add a module parameter for changing this timeout.

Driver core changes for 5.16-rc1
Here is the big set of driver core changes for 5.16-rc1.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while now with no reported
problems.
Included in here are:
- big update and cleanup of the sysfs abi documentation files
and scripts from Mauro. We are almost at the place where we
can properly check that the running kernel's sysfs abi is
documented fully.
- firmware loader updates
- dyndbg updates
- kernfs cleanups and fixes from Christoph
- device property updates
- component fix
- other minor driver core cleanups and fixes

s390/pci: add s390_iommu_aperture kernel parameter
Some applications map the same memory area for DMA multiple times while also mapping significant amounts of memory. With our current DMA code these applications will run out of DMA addresses after mapping half of the available memory because the number of DMA mappings is constrained by the number of concurrently active DMA addresses we support which in turn is limited by the minimum of hardware constraints and high_memory. Limiting the number of active DMA addresses to high_memory is only a heuristic to save memory used by the iommu_bitmap and DMA page tables however. This was added under the assumption that it rarely makes sense to DMA map more than system memory. To accommodate special applications which insist on double mapping, which works on other platforms, allow specifying a factor of how many times installed memory is available as DMA address space. Use 0 as a special value to apply no constraints beyond what hardware dictates at the expense of significantly more memory use.

x86/signal: Implement sigaltstack size validation
For historical reasons MINSIGSTKSZ is a constant which became already too
small with AVX512 support.
Add a mechanism to enforce strict checking of the sigaltstack size against
the real size of the FPU frame.
The strict check can be enabled via a config option and can also be
controlled via the kernel command line option 'strict_sas_size' independent
of the config switch.
Enabling it might break existing applications which allocate a too small
sigaltstack but 'work' because they never get a signal delivered. Though it
can be handy to filter out binaries which are not yet aware of
AT_MINSIGSTKSZ.
Also the upcoming support for dynamically enabled FPU features requires a
strict sanity check to ensure that:
- Enabling of a dynamic feature, which changes the sigframe size fits
into an enabled sigaltstack
- Installing a too small sigaltstack after a dynamic feature has been
added is not possible.
Implement the base check which is controlled by config and command line
options.

kvm: x86: mmu: Make NX huge page recovery period configurable
Currently, the NX huge page recovery thread wakes up every minute and zaps 1/nx_huge_pages_recovery_ratio of the total number of split NX huge pages at a time. This is intended to ensure that only a relatively small number of pages get zapped at a time. But for very large VMs (or more specifically, VMs with a large number of executable pages), a period of 1 minute could still result in this number being too high (unless the ratio is changed significantly, but that can result in split pages lingering on for too long). This change makes the period configurable instead of fixing it at 1 minute. Users of large VMs can then adjust the period and/or the ratio to reduce the number of pages zapped at one time while still maintaining the same overall duration for cycling through the entire list. By default, KVM derives a period from the ratio such that a page will remain on the list for 1 hour on average.

KVM: arm64: Allow KVM to be disabled from the command line
Although KVM can be compiled out of the kernel, it cannot be disabled at runtime. Allow this possibility by introducing a new mode that will prevent KVM from initialising. This is useful in the (limited) circumstances where you don't want KVM to be available (what is wrong with you?), or when you want to install another hypervisor instead (good luck with that).

x86: change default to spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl
Switch the kernel default of SSBD and STIBP to the ones with CONFIG_SECCOMP=n (i.e. spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl) even if CONFIG_SECCOMP=y. Several motivations listed below: - If SMT is enabled the seccomp jail can still attack the rest of the system even with spectre_v2_user=seccomp by using MDS-HT (except on XEON PHI where MDS can be tamed with SMT left enabled, but that's a special case). Setting STIBP become a very expensive window dressing after MDS-HT was discovered. - The seccomp jail cannot attack the kernel with spectre-v2-HT regardless (even if STIBP is not set), but with MDS-HT the seccomp jail can attack the kernel too. - With spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl the seccomp jail can attack the other userland (guest or host mode) using spectre-v2-HT, but the userland attack is already mitigated by both ASLR and pid namespaces for host userland and through virt isolation with libkrun or kata. (if something if somebody is worried about spectre-v2-HT it's best to mount proc with hidepid=2,gid=proc on workstations where not all apps may run under container runtimes, rather than slowing down all seccomp jails, but the best is to add pid namespaces to the seccomp jail). As opposed MDS-HT is not mitigated and the seccomp jail can still attack all other host and guest userland if SMT is enabled even with spec_store_bypass_disable=seccomp. - If full security is required then MDS-HT must also be mitigated with nosmt and then spectre_v2_user=prctl and spectre_v2_user=seccomp would become identical. - Setting spectre_v2_user=seccomp is overall lower priority than to setting javascript.options.wasm false in about:config to protect against remote wasm MDS-HT, instead of worrying about Spectre-v2-HT and STIBP which again is already statistically well mitigated by other means in userland and it's fully mitigated in kernel with retpolines (unlike the wasm assist call with MDS-HT). - SSBD is needed to prevent reading the JIT memory and the primary user being the OpenJDK. However the primary user of SSBD wouldn't be covered by spec_store_bypass_disable=seccomp because it doesn't use seccomp and the primary user also explicitly declined to set PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL+PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS despite it easily could. In fact it would need to set it only when the sandboxing mechanism is enabled for javaws applets, but it still declined it by declaring security within the same user address space as an untenable objective for their JIT, even in the sandboxing case where performance would be a lesser concern (for the record: I kind of disagree in not setting PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS in the sandbox case and I prefer to run javaws through a wrapper that sets PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS if I need). In turn it can be inferred that even if the primary user of SSBD would use seccomp, they would invoke it with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW by now. - runc/crun already set SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW by default, k8s and podman have a default json seccomp allowlist that cannot be slowed down, so for the #1 seccomp user this change is already a noop. - systemd/sshd or other apps that use seccomp, if they really need STIBP or SSBD, they need to explicitly set the PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL by now. The stibp/ssbd seccomp blind catch-all approach was done probably initially with a wishful thinking objective to pretend to have a peace of mind that it could magically fix it all. That was wishful thinking before MDS-HT was discovered, but after MDS-HT has been discovered it become just window dressing. - For qemu "-sandbox" seccomp jail it wouldn't make sense to set STIBP or SSBD. SSBD doesn't help with KVM because there's no JIT (if it's needed with TCG it should be an opt-in with PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL+PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS and it shouldn't slowdown KVM for nothing). For qemu+KVM STIBP would be even more window dressing than it is for all other apps, because in the qemu+KVM case there's not only the MDS attack to worry about with SMT enabled. Even after disabling SMT, there's still a theoretical spectre-v2 attack possible within the same thread context from guest mode to host ring3 that the host kernel retpoline mitigation has no theoretical chance to mitigate. On some kernels a ibrs-always/ibrs-retpoline opt-in model is provided that will enabled IBRS in the qemu host ring3 userland which fixes this theoretical concern. Only after enabling IBRS in the host userland it would then make sense to proceed and worry about STIBP and an attack on the other host userland, but then again SMT would need to be disabled for full security anyway, so that would render STIBP again a noop. - last but not the least: the lack of "spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl" means the moment a guest boots and sshd/systemd runs, the guest kernel will write to SPEC_CTRL MSR which will make the guest vmexit forever slower, forcing KVM to issue a very slow rdmsr instruction at every vmexit. So the end result is that SPEC_CTRL MSR is only available in GCE. Most other public cloud providers don't expose SPEC_CTRL, which means that not only STIBP/SSBD isn't available, but IBPB isn't available either (which would cause no overhead to the guest or the hypervisor because it's write only and requires no reading during vmexit). So the current default already net loss in security (missing IBPB) which means most public cloud providers cannot achieve a fully secure guest with nosmt (and nosmt is enough to fully mitigate MDS-HT). It also means GCE and is unfairly penalized in performance because it provides the option to enable full security in the guest as an opt-in (i.e. nosmt and IBPB). So this change will allow all cloud providers to expose SPEC_CTRL without incurring into any hypervisor slowdown and at the same time it will remove the unfair penalization of GCE performance for doing the right thing and it'll allow to get full security with nosmt with IBPB being available (and STIBP becoming meaningless). Example to put things in prospective: the STIBP enabled in seccomp has never been about protecting apps using seccomp like sshd from an attack from a malicious userland, but to the contrary it has always been about protecting the system from an attack from sshd, after a successful remote network exploit against sshd. In fact initially it wasn't obvious STIBP would work both ways (STIBP was about preventing the task that runs with STIBP to be attacked with spectre-v2-HT, but accidentally in the STIBP case it also prevents the attack in the other direction). In the hypothetical case that sshd has been remotely exploited the last concern should be STIBP being set, because it'll be still possible to obtain info even from the kernel by using MDS if nosmt wasn't set (and if it was set, STIBP is a noop in the first place). As opposed kernel cannot leak anything with spectre-v2 HT because of retpolines and the userland is mitigated by ASLR already and ideally PID namespaces too. If something it'd be worth checking if sshd run the seccomp thread under pid namespaces too if available in the running kernel. SSBD also would be a noop for sshd, since sshd uses no JIT. If sshd prefers to keep doing the STIBP window dressing exercise, it still can even after this change of defaults by opting-in with PR_SPEC_INDIRECT_BRANCH. Ultimately setting SSBD and STIBP by default for all seccomp jails is a bad sweet spot and bad default with more cons than pros that end up reducing security in the public cloud (by giving an huge incentive to not expose SPEC_CTRL which would be needed to get full security with IBPB after setting nosmt in the guest) and by excessively hurting performance to more secure apps using seccomp that end up having to opt out with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW. The following is the verified result of the new default with SMT enabled: (gdb) print spectre_v2_user_stibp $1 = SPECTRE_V2_USER_PRCTL (gdb) print spectre_v2_user_ibpb $2 = SPECTRE_V2_USER_PRCTL (gdb) print ssb_mode $3 = SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_PRCTL Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201104235054.5678-1-aarcange@redhat.com Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/AAA2EF2C-293D-4D5B-BFA6-FF655105CD84@redhat.com Acked-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c0722838-06f7-da6b-138f-e0f26362f16a@redhat.com |

arm64 updates for 5.15:
- Support for 32-bit tasks on asymmetric AArch32 systems (on top of the scheduler changes merged via the tip tree). - More entry.S clean-ups and conversion to C. - MTE updates: allow a preferred tag checking mode to be set per CPU (the overhead of synchronous mode is smaller for some CPUs than others); optimisations for kernel entry/exit path; optionally disable MTE on the kernel command line. - Kselftest improvements for SVE and signal handling, PtrAuth. - Fix unlikely race where a TLBI could use stale ASID on an ASID roll-over (found by inspection). - Miscellaneous fixes: disable trapping of PMSNEVFR_EL1 to higher exception levels; drop unnecessary sigdelsetmask() call in the signal32 handling; remove BUG_ON when failing to allocate SVE state (just signal the process); SYM_CODE annotations. - Other trivial clean-ups: use macros instead of magic numbers, remove redundant returns, typos. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEE5RElWfyWxS+3PLO2a9axLQDIXvEFAmEuYkoACgkQa9axLQDI XvEWVw/9HSWbccLrQ68ulaqZkL4r6lL2RqvZ2p6fkIRW7bX1JS4UJjWe3+VBg5Ed DQ1A5cHC5ZndQ4gCRsUhcq7IMXBSj3twMzK7yxBk3zh8tbhVrIOONsKMurMw1NyM OmoyTJ01i2ZrkDs0OU3fBlvIHPxBjKbOZqykOJHjrB2rwBSbsyUw2KvpM7ha8DOf O7gKViDrdAhumdIL9rsMvSiIPoJLCxvqeu55c3saVu1JrUR6ENu7lMu3jt4WrfK3 m5gf76IFbgxXvlLiC8RJW7OYaXZ+COb7RA/yP/lK+Y0ug9PwqTpzXDwqvAp8nBIv y7DK0umcBwfDWmwnRO+ZzNPjOGTHnOnjC07WNBPn3v03pMeJ8v8RnvzHkliek31P r6uFWBxWO/O0sBbSpR+4tzgNfir0RkMajwL5pxQCEMoPCucStYQQl8zIeJeJecpT DKIyKzfFw6O59gdhE6dCj2wXH8YmKUoSUPCAXpKGzK/oYVOGVQTZSZjIC++ydFWv AOXz77etPidk3/Tl15Ena7fkkMkxX9UM8dTjOFS64mSWlEyzE6FtfAgm2rIEOaG7 ps6IjVzVves39SC+yry8T2L6gsxPnanRfwKKCWHkovQzNFgs5Qt51Fd5eIeI1jZ0 uEZhd19FN4136QhjWJOeXL/eyj0bv1WLX/mUln95sHnKyf4je9w= =X6Wm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: - Support for 32-bit tasks on asymmetric AArch32 systems (on top of the scheduler changes merged via the tip tree). - More entry.S clean-ups and conversion to C. - MTE updates: allow a preferred tag checking mode to be set per CPU (the overhead of synchronous mode is smaller for some CPUs than others); optimisations for kernel entry/exit path; optionally disable MTE on the kernel command line. - Kselftest improvements for SVE and signal handling, PtrAuth. - Fix unlikely race where a TLBI could use stale ASID on an ASID roll-over (found by inspection). - Miscellaneous fixes: disable trapping of PMSNEVFR_EL1 to higher exception levels; drop unnecessary sigdelsetmask() call in the signal32 handling; remove BUG_ON when failing to allocate SVE state (just signal the process); SYM_CODE annotations. - Other trivial clean-ups: use macros instead of magic numbers, remove redundant returns, typos. * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (56 commits) arm64: Do not trap PMSNEVFR_EL1 arm64: mm: fix comment typo of pud_offset_phys() arm64: signal32: Drop pointless call to sigdelsetmask() arm64/sve: Better handle failure to allocate SVE register storage arm64: Document the requirement for SCR_EL3.HCE arm64: head: avoid over-mapping in map_memory arm64/sve: Add a comment documenting the binutils needed for SVE asm arm64/sve: Add some comments for sve_save/load_state() kselftest/arm64: signal: Add a TODO list for signal handling tests kselftest/arm64: signal: Add test case for SVE register state in signals kselftest/arm64: signal: Verify that signals can't change the SVE vector length kselftest/arm64: signal: Check SVE signal frame shows expected vector length kselftest/arm64: signal: Support signal frames with SVE register data kselftest/arm64: signal: Add SVE to the set of features we can check for arm64: replace in_irq() with in_hardirq() kselftest/arm64: pac: Fix skipping of tests on systems without PAC Documentation: arm64: describe asymmetric 32-bit support arm64: Remove logic to kill 32-bit tasks on 64-bit-only cores arm64: Hook up cmdline parameter to allow mismatched 32-bit EL0 arm64: Advertise CPUs capable of running 32-bit applications in sysfs ... |

arm64/cpufeature: Optionally disable MTE via command-line
MTE support needs to be optionally disabled in runtime for HW issue workaround, FW development and some evaluation works on system resource and performance. This patch makes two changes: (1) moves init of tag-allocation bits(ATA/ATA0) to cpu_enable_mte() as not cached in TLB. (2) allows ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.MTE to be overridden on its shadow value by giving "arm64.nomte" on cmdline. When the feature value is off, ATA and TCF will not set and the related functionalities are accordingly suppressed.

The driver was merged in 1999 and has only ever seen treewide cleanups since then, with no indication whatsoever that anyone has actually had access to hardware for testing the patches. >From the information in the link below, it appears that the hardware is for some leased line system in Russia that has since been discontinued, and useless without any remote end to connect to. As the driver still feels like a Linux-2.2 era artifact today, it appears that the best way forward is to just delete it.

printk: Add printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter
console_verbose() increases console loglevel to CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MOTORMOUTH, which provides more information to debug a panic/oops. Unfortunately, in Arista we maintain some DUTs (Device Under Test) that are configured to have 9600 baud rate. While verbose console messages have their value to post-analyze crashes, on such setup they: - may prevent panic/oops messages being printed - take too long to flush on console resulting in watchdog reboot In all our setups we use kdump which saves dmesg buffer after panic, so in reality those extra messages on console provide no additional value, but rather add risk of not getting to __crash_kexec(). Provide printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter, which allows to switch off printk being verbose on oops/panic/lockdep.

Tracing updates for 5.14:
- Added option for per CPU threads to the hwlat tracer
- Have hwlat tracer handle hotplug CPUs
- New tracer: osnoise, that detects latency caused by interrupts, softirqs
and scheduling of other tasks.
- Added timerlat tracer that creates a thread and measures in detail what
sources of latency it has for wake ups.
- Removed the "success" field of the sched_wakeup trace event.
This has been hardcoded as "1" since 2015, no tooling should be looking
at it now. If one exists, we can revert this commit, fix that tool and
try to remove it again in the future.
- tgid mapping fixed to handle more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT pids/tgids.
- New boot command line option "tp_printk_stop", as tp_printk causes trace
events to write to console. When user space starts, this can easily live
lock the system. Having a boot option to stop just after boot up is
useful to prevent that from happening.
- Have ftrace_dump_on_oops boot command line option take numbers that match
the numbers shown in /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops.
- Bootconfig clean ups, fixes and enhancements.
- New ktest script that tests bootconfig options.
- Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() to register a tracepoint
without triggering a WARN*() if it already exists. BPF has a path from
user space that can do this. All other paths are considered a bug.
- Small clean ups and fixes

mm: hugetlb: introduce CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP_DEFAULT_ON
When using HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP, the freeing unused vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page is default off. Now the vmemmap is PMD mapped. So there is no side effect when this feature is enabled with no HugeTLB pages in the system. Someone may want to enable this feature in the compiler time instead of using boot command line. So add a config to make it default on when someone do not want to enable it via command line.

mm: hugetlb: add a kernel parameter hugetlb_free_vmemmap
Add a kernel parameter hugetlb_free_vmemmap to enable the feature of freeing unused vmemmap pages associated with each hugetlb page on boot. We disable PMD mapping of vmemmap pages for x86-64 arch when this feature is enabled. Because vmemmap_remap_free() depends on vmemmap being base page mapped.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Time and clocksource/clockevent related updates:
Core changes:
- Infrastructure to support per CPU "broadcast" devices for per CPU
clockevent devices which stop in deep idle states. This allows us
to utilize the more efficient architected timer on certain ARM SoCs
for normal operation instead of permanentely using the slow to
access SoC specific clockevent device.
- Print the name of the broadcast/wakeup device in /proc/timer_list
- Make the clocksource watchdog more robust against delays between
reading the current active clocksource and the watchdog
clocksource. Such delays can be caused by NMIs, SMIs and vCPU
preemption.
Handle this by reading the watchdog clocksource twice, i.e. before
and after reading the current active clocksource. In case that the
two watchdog reads shows an excessive time delta, the read sequence
is repeated up to 3 times.
- Improve the debug output and add a test module for the watchdog
mechanism.
- Reimplementation of the venerable time64_to_tm() function with a
faster and significantly smaller version. Straight from the source,
i.e. the author of the related research paper contributed this!
Driver changes:
- No new drivers, not even new device tree bindings!
- Fixes, improvements and cleanups and all over the place"

mm/page_reporting: export reporting order as module parameter
The macro PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER is defined as the page reporting threshold. It can't be adjusted at runtime. This introduces a variable (@page_reporting_order) to replace the marcro (PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER). MAX_ORDER is assigned to it initially, meaning the page reporting is disabled. It will be specified by driver if valid one is provided. Otherwise, it will fall back to @pageblock_order. It's also exported so that the page reporting order can be adjusted at runtime.

This was a reasonably active cycle for documentation; this pull includes:
- Some kernel-doc cleanups. That script is still regex onslaught from
hell, but it has gotten a little better.
- Improvements to the checkpatch docs, which are also used by the tool
itself.
- A major update to the pathname lookup documentation.
- Elimination of :doc: markup, since our automarkup magic can create
references from filenames without all the extra noise.
- The flurry of Chinese translation activity continues.
Plus, of course, the usual collection of updates, typo fixes, and warning
fixes.

Changes in this cycle were:
- Add the "ratelimit:N" parameter to the split_lock_detect= boot option,
to rate-limit the generation of bus-lock exceptions. This is both
easier on system resources and kinder to offending applications than
the current policy of outright killing them.
- Document the split-lock detection feature and its parameters.

clocksource: Provide kernel module to test clocksource watchdog
When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. It would be good to have a way of testing the clocksource watchdog's ability to distinguish between these two causes of clock skew and instability. Therefore, provide a new clocksource-wdtest module selected by a new TEST_CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG Kconfig option. This module has a single module parameter named "holdoff" that provides the number of seconds of delay before testing should start, which defaults to zero when built as a module and to 10 seconds when built directly into the kernel. Very large systems that boot slowly may need to increase the value of this module parameter. This module uses hand-crafted clocksource structures to do its testing, thus avoiding messing up timing for the rest of the kernel and for user applications. This module first verifies that the ->uncertainty_margin field of the clocksource structures are set sanely. It then tests the delay-detection capability of the clocksource watchdog, increasing the number of consecutive delays injected, first provoking console messages complaining about the delays and finally forcing a clock-skew event. Unexpected test results cause at least one WARN_ON_ONCE() console splat. If there are no splats, the test has passed. Finally, it fuzzes the value returned from a clocksource to test the clocksource watchdog's ability to detect time skew. This module checks the state of its clocksource after each test, and uses WARN_ON_ONCE() to emit a console splat if there are any failures. This should enable all types of test frameworks to detect any such failures. This facility is intended for diagnostic use only, and should be avoided on production systems.

clocksource: Limit number of CPUs checked for clock synchronization
Currently, if skew is detected on a clock marked CLOCK_SOURCE_VERIFY_PERCPU, that clock is checked on all CPUs. This is thorough, but might not be what you want on a system with a few tens of CPUs, let alone a few hundred of them. Therefore, by default check only up to eight randomly chosen CPUs. Also provide a new clocksource.verify_n_cpus kernel boot parameter. A value of -1 says to check all of the CPUs, and a non-negative value says to randomly select that number of CPUs, without concern about selecting the same CPU multiple times. However, make use of a cpumask so that a given CPU will be checked at most once. Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> # For verify_n_cpus=1. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

clocksource: Retry clock read if long delays detected
When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. Yes, interrupts are disabled across those two reads, but there are no shortage of things that can delay interrupts-disabled regions of code ranging from SMI handlers to vCPU preemption. It would be good to have some indication as to why the clock was marked unstable. Therefore, re-read the watchdog clock on either side of the read from the clock under test. If the watchdog clock shows an excessive time delta between its pair of reads, the reads are retried. The maximum number of retries is specified by a new kernel boot parameter clocksource.max_cswd_read_retries, which defaults to three, that is, up to four reads, one initial and up to three retries. If more than one retry was required, a message is printed on the console (the occasional single retry is expected behavior, especially in guest OSes). If the maximum number of retries is exceeded, the clock under test will be marked unstable. However, the probability of this happening due to various sorts of delays is quite small. In addition, the reason (clock-read delays) for the unstable marking will be apparent. Reported-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

cgroup: make per-cgroup pressure stall tracking configurable
PSI accounts stalls for each cgroup separately and aggregates it at each level of the hierarchy. This causes additional overhead with psi_avgs_work being called for each cgroup in the hierarchy. psi_avgs_work has been highly optimized, however on systems with large number of cgroups the overhead becomes noticeable. Systems which use PSI only at the system level could avoid this overhead if PSI can be configured to skip per-cgroup stall accounting. Add "cgroup_disable=pressure" kernel command-line option to allow requesting system-wide only pressure stall accounting. When set, it keeps system-wide accounting under /proc/pressure/ but skips accounting for individual cgroups and does not expose PSI nodes in cgroup hierarchy.

kvfree_rcu: Release a page cache under memory pressure
Add a drain_page_cache() function to drain a per-cpu page cache. The reason behind of it is a system can run into a low memory condition, in that case a page shrinker can ask for its users to free their caches in order to get extra memory available for other needs in a system. When a system hits such condition, a page cache is drained for all CPUs in a system. By default a page cache work is delayed with 5 seconds interval until a memory pressure disappears, if needed it can be changed. See a rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec module parameter.

init/initramfs.c: do unpacking asynchronously
Patch series "background initramfs unpacking, and CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH", v3. These two patches are independent, but better-together. The second is a rather trivial patch that simply allows the developer to change "/sbin/modprobe" to something else - e.g. the empty string, so that all request_module() during early boot return -ENOENT early, without even spawning a usermode helper, needlessly synchronizing with the initramfs unpacking. The first patch delegates decompressing the initramfs to a worker thread, allowing do_initcalls() in main.c to proceed to the device_ and late_ initcalls without waiting for that decompression (and populating of rootfs) to finish. Obviously, some of those later calls may rely on the initramfs being available, so I've added synchronization points in the firmware loader and usermodehelper paths - there might be other places that would need this, but so far no one has been able to think of any places I have missed. There's not much to win if most of the functionality needed during boot is only available as modules. But systems with a custom-made .config and initramfs can boot faster, partly due to utilizing more than one cpu earlier, partly by avoiding known-futile modprobe calls (which would still trigger synchronization with the initramfs unpacking, thus eliminating most of the first benefit). This patch (of 2): Most of the boot process doesn't actually need anything from the initramfs, until of course PID1 is to be executed. So instead of doing the decompressing and populating of the initramfs synchronously in populate_rootfs() itself, push that off to a worker thread. This is primarily motivated by an embedded ppc target, where unpacking even the rather modest sized initramfs takes 0.6 seconds, which is long enough that the external watchdog becomes unhappy that it doesn't get attention soon enough. By doing the initramfs decompression in a worker thread, we get to do the device_initcalls and hence start petting the watchdog much sooner. Normal desktops might benefit as well. On my mostly stock Ubuntu kernel, my initramfs is a 26M xz-compressed blob, decompressing to around 126M. That takes almost two seconds: [ 0.201454] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs... [ 1.976633] Freeing initrd memory: 29416K Before this patch, these lines occur consecutively in dmesg. With this patch, the timestamps on these two lines is roughly the same as above, but with 172 lines inbetween - so more than one cpu has been kept busy doing work that would otherwise only happen after the populate_rootfs() finished. Should one of the initcalls done after rootfs_initcall time (i.e., device_ and late_ initcalls) need something from the initramfs (say, a kernel module or a firmware blob), it will simply wait for the initramfs unpacking to be done before proceeding, which should in theory make this completely safe. But if some driver pokes around in the filesystem directly and not via one of the official kernel interfaces (i.e. request_firmware*(), call_usermodehelper*) that theory may not hold - also, I certainly might have missed a spot when sprinkling wait_for_initramfs(). So there is an escape hatch in the form of an initramfs_async= command line parameter.

mm,memory_hotplug: add kernel boot option to enable memmap_on_memory
Self stored memmap leads to a sparse memory situation which is unsuitable for workloads that requires large contiguous memory chunks, so make this an opt-in which needs to be explicitly enabled. To control this, let memory_hotplug have its own memory space, as suggested by David, so we can add memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory parameter.

powerpc/64s/radix: Enable huge vmalloc mappings
This reduces TLB misses by nearly 30x on a `git diff` workload on a 2-node POWER9 (59,800 -> 2,100) and reduces CPU cycles by 0.54%, due to vfs hashes being allocated with 2MB pages.

IOMMU Updates for Linux v5.13
Including:
- Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by
Christoph Hellwig. This mostly affects the Freescale PAMU
driver.
- New IOMMU driver for Unisoc SOCs
- ARM SMMU Updates from Will:
- SMMUv3: Drop vestigial PREFETCH_ADDR support
- SMMUv3: Elide TLB sync logic for empty gather
- SMMUv3: Fix "Service Failure Mode" handling
- SMMUv2: New Qualcomm compatible string
- Removal of the AMD IOMMU performance counter writeable check
on AMD. It caused long boot delays on some machines and is
only needed to work around an errata on some older (possibly
pre-production) chips. If someone is still hit by this
hardware issue anyway the performance counters will just
return 0.
- Support for targeted invalidations in the AMD IOMMU driver.
Before that the driver only invalidated a single 4k page or the
whole IO/TLB for an address space. This has been extended now
and is mostly useful for emulated AMD IOMMUs.
- Several fixes for the Shared Virtual Memory support in the
Intel VT-d driver
- Mediatek drivers can now be built as modules
- Re-introduction of the forcedac boot option which got lost
when converting the Intel VT-d driver to the common dma-iommu
implementation.
- Extension of the IOMMU device registration interface and
support iommu_ops to be const again when drivers are built as
modules.

Scheduler updates for this cycle are:
- Clean up SCHED_DEBUG: move the decades old mess of sysctl, procfs and debugfs interfaces
to a unified debugfs interface.
- Signals: Allow caching one sigqueue object per task, to improve performance & latencies.
- Improve newidle_balance() irq-off latencies on systems with a large number of CPU cgroups.
- Improve energy-aware scheduling
- Improve the PELT metrics for certain workloads
- Reintroduce select_idle_smt() to improve load-balancing locality - but without the previous
regressions
- Add 'scheduler latency debugging': warn after long periods of pending need_resched. This
is an opt-in feature that requires the enabling of the LATENCY_WARN scheduler feature,
or the use of the resched_latency_warn_ms=xx boot parameter.
- CPU hotplug fixes for HP-rollback, and for the 'fail' interface. Fix remaining
balance_push() vs. hotplug holes/races
- PSI fixes, plus allow /proc/pressure/ files to be written by CAP_SYS_RESOURCE tasks as well
- Fix/improve various load-balancing corner cases vs. capacity margins
- Fix sched topology on systems with NUMA diameter of 3 or above
- Fix PF_KTHREAD vs to_kthread() race
- Minor rseq optimizations
- Misc cleanups, optimizations, fixes and smaller updates

arm64 updates for 5.13:
- MTE asynchronous support for KASan. Previously only synchronous
(slower) mode was supported. Asynchronous is faster but does not allow
precise identification of the illegal access.
- Run kernel mode SIMD with softirqs disabled. This allows using NEON in
softirq context for crypto performance improvements. The conditional
yield support is modified to take softirqs into account and reduce the
latency.
- Preparatory patches for Apple M1: handle CPUs that only have the VHE
mode available (host kernel running at EL2), add FIQ support.
- arm64 perf updates: support for HiSilicon PA and SLLC PMU drivers, new
functions for the HiSilicon HHA and L3C PMU, cleanups.
- Re-introduce support for execute-only user permissions but only when
the EPAN (Enhanced Privileged Access Never) architecture feature is
available.
- Disable fine-grained traps at boot and improve the documented boot
requirements.
- Support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC on arm64 (only with KASAN_GENERIC).
- Add hierarchical eXecute Never permissions for all page tables.
- Add arm64 prctl(PR_PAC_{SET,GET}_ENABLED_KEYS) allowing user programs
to control which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task.
- arm64 kselftests for BTI and some improvements to the MTE tests.
- Minor improvements to the compat vdso and sigpage.
- Miscellaneous cleanups.

Support for enhanced split lock detection:
Newer CPUs provide a second mechanism to detect operations with lock prefix which go accross a cache line boundary. Such operations have to take bus lock which causes a system wide performance degradation when these operations happen frequently. The new mechanism is not using the #AC exception. It triggers #DB and is restricted to operations in user space. Kernel side split lock access can only be detected by the #AC based variant. Contrary to the #AC based mechanism the #DB based variant triggers _after_ the instruction was executed. The mechanism is CPUID enumerated and contrary to the #AC version which is based on the magic TEST_CTRL_MSR and model/family based enumeration on the way to become architectural. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmCGkr8THHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYodUKD/9tUXhInR7+1ykEHpMvdmSp48vqY3nc sKmT22pPl+OchnJ62mw3T8gKpBYVleJmcCaY2qVx7hfaVcWApLGJvX4tmfXmv422 XDSJ6b8Os6wfgx5FR//I17z8ZtXnnuKkPrTMoRsQUw2qLq31y6fdQv+GW/cc1Kpw mengjmPE+HnpaKbtuQfPdc4a+UvLjvzBMAlDZPTBPKYrP4FFqYVnUVwyTg5aLVDY gHz4V8+b502RS/zPfTAtE3J848od+NmcUPdFlcG9DVA+hR0Rl0thvruCTFiD2vVh i9DJ7INof5FoJDEzh0dGsD7x+MB6OY8GZyHdUMeGgIRPtWkqrG52feQQIn2YYlaL fB3DlpNv7NIJ/0JMlALvh8S0tEoOcYdHqH+M/3K/zbzecg/FAo+lVo8WciGLPqWs ykUG5/f/OnlTvgB8po1ebJu0h0jHnoK9heWWXk9zWIRVDPXHFOWKW3kSbTTb3icR 9hfjP/SNejpmt9Ju1OTwsgnV7NALIdVX+G5jyIEsjFl31Co1RZNYhHLFvi11FWlQ /ssvFK9O5ZkliocGCAN9+yuOnM26VqWSCE4fis6/2aSgD2Y4Gpvb//cP96SrcNAH u8eXNvGLlniJP3F3JImWIfIPQTrpvQhcU4eZ6NtviXqj/utQXX6c9PZ1PLYpcvUh 9AWF8rwhT8X4oA== =lmi8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-splitlock-2021-04-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 bus lock detection updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for enhanced split lock detection: Newer CPUs provide a second mechanism to detect operations with lock prefix which go accross a cache line boundary.

Entry code update:
Provide support for randomized stack offsets per syscall to make stack-based attacks harder which rely on the deterministic stack layout. The feature is based on the original idea of PaX's RANDSTACK feature, but uses a significantly different implementation. The offset does not affect the pt_regs location on the task stack as this was agreed on to be of dubious value. The offset is applied before the actual syscall is invoked. The offset is stored per cpu and the randomization happens at the end of the syscall which is less predictable than on syscall entry. The mechanism to apply the offset is via alloca(), i.e. abusing the dispised VLAs. This comes with the drawback that stack-clash-protection has to be disabled for the affected compilation units and there is also a negative interaction with stack-protector.

KEYS: trusted: Add generic trusted keys framework
Current trusted keys framework is tightly coupled to use TPM device as an underlying implementation which makes it difficult for implementations like Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) etc. to provide trusted keys support in case platform doesn't posses a TPM device. Add a generic trusted keys framework where underlying implementations can be easily plugged in. Create struct trusted_key_ops to achieve this, which contains necessary functions of a backend. Also, define a module parameter in order to select a particular trust source in case a platform support multiple trust sources. In case its not specified then implementation itetrates through trust sources list starting with TPM and assign the first trust source as a backend which has initiazed successfully during iteration. Note that current implementation only supports a single trust source at runtime which is either selectable at compile time or during boot via aforementioned module parameter.

stack: Optionally randomize kernel stack offset each syscall
This provides the ability for architectures to enable kernel stack base address offset randomization. This feature is controlled by the boot param "randomize_kstack_offset=on/off", with its default value set by CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT. This feature is based on the original idea from the last public release of PaX's RANDKSTACK feature: https://pax.grsecurity.net/docs/randkstack.txt All the credit for the original idea goes to the PaX team. Note that the design and implementation of this upstream randomize_kstack_offset feature differs greatly from the RANDKSTACK feature (see below). Reasoning for the feature: This feature aims to make harder the various stack-based attacks that rely on deterministic stack structure. We have had many such attacks in past (just to name few): https://jon.oberheide.org/files/infiltrate12-thestackisback.pdf https://jon.oberheide.org/files/stackjacking-infiltrate11.pdf https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2016/06/exploiting-recursion-in-linux-kernel_20.html As Linux kernel stack protections have been constantly improving (vmap-based stack allocation with guard pages, removal of thread_info, STACKLEAK), attackers have had to find new ways for their exploits to work. They have done so, continuing to rely on the kernel's stack determinism, in situations where VMAP_STACK and THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK_STRUCT were not relevant. For example, the following recent attacks would have been hampered if the stack offset was non-deterministic between syscalls: https://repositorio-aberto.up.pt/bitstream/10216/125357/2/374717.pdf (page 70: targeting the pt_regs copy with linear stack overflow) https://a13xp0p0v.github.io/2020/02/15/CVE-2019-18683.html (leaked stack address from one syscall as a target during next syscall) The main idea is that since the stack offset is randomized on each system call, it is harder for an attack to reliably land in any particular place on the thread stack, even with address exposures, as the stack base will change on the next syscall. Also, since randomization is performed after placing pt_regs, the ptrace-based approach[1] to discover the randomized offset during a long-running syscall should not be possible. Design description: During most of the kernel's execution, it runs on the "thread stack", which is pretty deterministic in its structure: it is fixed in size, and on every entry from userspace to kernel on a syscall the thread stack starts construction from an address fetched from the per-cpu cpu_current_top_of_stack variable. The first element to be pushed to the thread stack is the pt_regs struct that stores all required CPU registers and syscall parameters. Finally the specific syscall function is called, with the stack being used as the kernel executes the resulting request. The goal of randomize_kstack_offset feature is to add a random offset after the pt_regs has been pushed to the stack and before the rest of the thread stack is used during the syscall processing, and to change it every time a process issues a syscall. The source of randomness is currently architecture-defined (but x86 is using the low byte of rdtsc()). Future improvements for different entropy sources is possible, but out of scope for this patch. Further more, to add more unpredictability, new offsets are chosen at the end of syscalls (the timing of which should be less easy to measure from userspace than at syscall entry time), and stored in a per-CPU variable, so that the life of the value does not stay explicitly tied to a single task. As suggested by Andy Lutomirski, the offset is added using alloca() and an empty asm() statement with an output constraint, since it avoids changes to assembly syscall entry code, to the unwinder, and provides correct stack alignment as defined by the compiler. In order to make this available by default with zero performance impact for those that don't want it, it is boot-time selectable with static branches. This way, if the overhead is not wanted, it can just be left turned off with no performance impact. The generated assembly for x86_64 with GCC looks like this: ... ffffffff81003977: 65 8b 05 02 ea 00 7f mov %gs:0x7f00ea02(%rip),%eax # 12380 <kstack_offset> ffffffff8100397e: 25 ff 03 00 00 and $0x3ff,%eax ffffffff81003983: 48 83 c0 0f add $0xf,%rax ffffffff81003987: 25 f8 07 00 00 and $0x7f8,%eax ffffffff8100398c: 48 29 c4 sub %rax,%rsp ffffffff8100398f: 48 8d 44 24 0f lea 0xf(%rsp),%rax ffffffff81003994: 48 83 e0 f0 and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rax ... As a result of the above stack alignment, this patch introduces about 5 bits of randomness after pt_regs is spilled to the thread stack on x86_64, and 6 bits on x86_32 (since its has 1 fewer bit required for stack alignment). The amount of entropy could be adjusted based on how much of the stack space we wish to trade for security. My measure of syscall performance overhead (on x86_64): lmbench: /usr/lib/lmbench/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu/lat_syscall -N 10000 null randomize_kstack_offset=y Simple syscall: 0.7082 microseconds randomize_kstack_offset=n Simple syscall: 0.7016 microseconds So, roughly 0.9% overhead growth for a no-op syscall, which is very manageable. And for people that don't want this, it's off by default. There are two gotchas with using the alloca() trick. First, compilers that have Stack Clash protection (-fstack-clash-protection) enabled by default (e.g. Ubuntu[3]) add pagesize stack probes to any dynamic stack allocations. While the randomization offset is always less than a page, the resulting assembly would still contain (unreachable!) probing routines, bloating the resulting assembly. To avoid this, -fno-stack-clash-protection is unconditionally added to the kernel Makefile since this is the only dynamic stack allocation in the kernel (now that VLAs have been removed) and it is provably safe from Stack Clash style attacks. The second gotcha with alloca() is a negative interaction with -fstack-protector*, in that it sees the alloca() as an array allocation, which triggers the unconditional addition of the stack canary function pre/post-amble which slows down syscalls regardless of the static branch. In order to avoid adding this unneeded check and its associated performance impact, architectures need to carefully remove uses of -fstack-protector-strong (or -fstack-protector) in the compilation units that use the add_random_kstack() macro and to audit the resulting stack mitigation coverage (to make sure no desired coverage disappears). No change is visible for this on x86 because the stack protector is already unconditionally disabled for the compilation unit, but the change is required on arm64. There is, unfortunately, no attribute that can be used to disable stack protector for specific functions. Comparison to PaX RANDKSTACK feature: The RANDKSTACK feature randomizes the location of the stack start (cpu_current_top_of_stack), i.e. including the location of pt_regs structure itself on the stack. Initially this patch followed the same approach, but during the recent discussions[2], it has been determined to be of a little value since, if ptrace functionality is available for an attacker, they can use PTRACE_PEEKUSR/PTRACE_POKEUSR to read/write different offsets in the pt_regs struct, observe the cache behavior of the pt_regs accesses, and figure out the random stack offset. Another difference is that the random offset is stored in a per-cpu variable, rather than having it be per-thread. As a result, these implementations differ a fair bit in their implementation details and results, though obviously the intent is similar.

pata_legacy: Add `probe_mask' parameter like with ide-generic

This testing is controlled by two new boolean module parameters, kfree_rcu_test_single and kfree_rcu_test_double. If one is set and the other not, only the corresponding variant is tested, otherwise both are tested, with the variant to be tested determined randomly on each invocation. Both of these module parameters are initialized to false, so setting either to true will test only that variant. Suggested-by: Paul E.

With the core bitmap support now accepting "N" as a placeholder for the end of the bitmap, "all" can be represented as "0-N" and has the advantage of not being specific to RCU (or any other subsystem). So deprecate the use of "all" by removing documentation references to it. The support itself needs to remain for now, since we don't know how many people out there are using it currently, but since it is in an __init area anyway, it isn't worth losing sleep over.

locking/csd_lock: Add more data to CSD lock debugging
In order to help identifying problems with IPI handling and remote function execution add some more data to IPI debugging code. There have been multiple reports of CPUs looping long times (many seconds) in smp_call_function_many() waiting for another CPU executing a function like tlb flushing. Most of these reports have been for cases where the kernel was running as a guest on top of KVM or Xen (there are rumours of that happening under VMWare, too, and even on bare metal). Finding the root cause hasn't been successful yet, even after more than 2 years of chasing this bug by different developers. Commit: |

locking/csd_lock: Add boot parameter for controlling CSD lock debugging
Currently CSD lock debugging can be switched on and off via a kernel config option only. Unfortunately there is at least one problem with CSD lock handling pending for about 2 years now, which has been seen in different environments (mostly when running virtualized under KVM or Xen, at least once on bare metal). Multiple attempts to catch this issue have finally led to introduction of CSD lock debug code, but this code is not in use in most distros as it has some impact on performance. In order to be able to ship kernels with CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG enabled even for production use, add a boot parameter for switching the debug functionality on. This will reduce any performance impact of the debug coding to a bare minimum when not being used.

lib: stackdepot: add support to disable stack depot
Add a kernel parameter stack_depot_disable to disable stack depot. So that stack hash table doesn't consume any memory when stack depot is disabled. The use case is CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without page_owner=on. Without this patch, stackdepot will consume the memory for the hashtable. By default, it's 8M which is never trivial. With this option, in CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system, page_owner=off, stack_depot_disable in kernel command line, we could save the wasted memory for the hashtable.

Driver core / debugfs update for 5.12-rc1
Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs update for 5.12-rc1
This set of driver core patches caused a bunch of problems in linux-next
for the past few weeks, when Saravana tried to set fw_devlink=on as the
default functionality. This caused a number of systems to stop booting,
and lots of bugs were fixed in this area for almost all of the reported
systems, but this option is not ready to be turned on just yet for the
default operation based on this testing, so I've reverted that change at
the very end so we don't have to worry about regressions in 5.12. We
will try to turn this on for 5.13 if testing goes better over the next
few months.
Other than the fixes caused by the fw_devlink testing in here, there's
not much more:
- debugfs fixes for invalid input into debugfs_lookup()
- kerneldoc cleanups
- warn message if platform drivers return an error on their
remove callback (a futile effort, but good to catch).
All of these have been in linux-next for a while now, and the
regressions have gone away with the revert of the fw_devlink change.

- As promised, the minimum Sphinx version to build the docs is now 1.7,
and we have dropped support for Python 2 entirely. That allowed the
removal of a bunch of compatibility code.
- A set of treewide warning fixups from Mauro that I applied after it

arm64 updates for 5.12
- vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD.
- Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support
cpufreq drivers built as modules.
- Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering
the kernel from EL0.
- Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec
DEN0098.
- Cleanup and refactoring across the board.
- Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
add_interrupt_randomness()
- Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3
SPE extensions.
- Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during
kexec relocation.
- Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when
hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically
improves vmscan performance.
- CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55
(#1024718)
- Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity
in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer
softirq processing when it is in use.
- Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
- vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD.
- Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support
cpufreq drivers built as modules.
- Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering
the kernel from EL0.
- Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec
DEN0098.
- Cleanup and refactoring across the board.
- Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
add_interrupt_randomness()
- Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3
SPE extensions.
- Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during
kexec relocation.
- Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when
hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically
improves vmscan performance.
- CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55
(#1024718)
- Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity
in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer
softirq processing when it is in use.
- Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line.

The performance event updates for v5.12 are:
- Add CPU-PMU support for Intel Sapphire Rapids CPUs
- Extend the perf ABI with PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, to offer two-parameter
sampling event feedback. Not used yet, but is intended for Golden Cove
CPU-PMU, which can provide both the instruction latency and the cache
latency information for memory profiling events.
- Remove experimental, default-disabled perfmon-v4 counter_freezing support
that could only be enabled via a boot option. The hardware is hopelessly
broken, we'd like to make sure nobody starts relying on this, as it would
only end in tears.
- Fix energy/power events on Intel SPR platforms
- Simplify the uprobes resume_execution() logic
- Misc smaller fixes.

Scheduler updates for v5.12:
[ NOTE: unfortunately this tree had to be freshly rebased today,
it's a same-content tree of 82891be90f3c (-next published)
merged with v5.11.
The main reason for the rebase was an authorship misattribution
problem with a new commit, which we noticed in the last minute,
and which we didn't want to be merged upstream. The offending
commit was deep in the tree, and dependent commits had to be
rebased as well. ]
- Core scheduler updates:
- Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the
preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full),
to allow distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to
close to PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling
behavior via a boot time selection.
There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime.
This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of static calls).
The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking
at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c.
( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical,
for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the
preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime
overhead even with the code patching. )
The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast majority
of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected.
- Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that
was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that
rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after
the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it
by chance but many others don't.
In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch
scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address
the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the
initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug.
- Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the following
consistent set of rbtree APIs:
partial-order; less() based:
- rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree
- rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached
total-order; cmp() based:
- rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree
- rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found
- rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry
- rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first()
- rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two
- Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a single pass.
This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves one aspect of the idle
sibling scan logic.
- Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU utilization
metrics from the scheduler
- Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by reducing the number
of active LB attempts & lengthen the load-balancing interval. This improves
stress-ng mmapfork performance.
- Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can result in
too high utilization values
- Misc updates & fixes:
- Fix the HRTICK reprogramming & optimization feature
- Fix SCHED_SOFTIRQ raising race & warning in the CPU offlining code
- Reduce dl_add_task_root_domain() overhead
- Fix uprobes refcount bug
- Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle()
- Clean up task priority related defines, remove *USER_*PRIO and
USER_PRIO()
- Simplify the sched_init_numa() deduplication sort
- Documentation updates
- Fix EAS bug in update_misfit_status(), which degraded the quality
of energy-balancing
- Smaller cleanups

Preemption mode selection is currently hardcoded on Kconfig choices. Introduce a dedicated option to tune preemption flavour at boot time, This will be only available on architectures efficiently supporting static calls in order not to tempt with the feature against additional overhead that might be prohibitive or undesirable. CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is automatically selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT if the architecture provides the necessary support (CONFIG_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY, and provide with __preempt_schedule_function() / __preempt_schedule_notrace_function()).

lib/vsprintf: no_hash_pointers prints all addresses as unhashed
If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then
printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for
debugging purposes. This change applies to any function that uses
vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf().
A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled.
Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security
risk.
Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the
command-line option is set.

There are no bugs or problems ever reported outside from Intel

perf/intel: Remove Perfmon-v4 counter_freezing support
Perfmon-v4 counter freezing is fundamentally broken; remove this default disabled code to make sure nobody uses it. The feature is called Freeze-on-PMI in the SDM, and if it would do that, there wouldn't actually be a problem, *however* it does something subtly different. It globally disables the whole PMU when it raises the PMI, not when the PMI hits. This means there's a window between the PMI getting raised and the PMI actually getting served where we loose events and this violates the perf counter independence. That is, a counting event should not result in a different event count when there is a sampling event co-scheduled. This is known to break existing software (RR).

rcu: Enable rcu_normal_after_boot unconditionally for RT
Expedited RCU grace periods send IPIs to all non-idle CPUs, and thus can disrupt time-critical code in real-time applications. However, there is a portion of boot-time processing (presumably before any real-time applications have started) where expedited RCU grace periods are the only option. And so it is that experience with the -rt patchset indicates that PREEMPT_RT systems should always set the rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_boot kernel boot parameter. This commit therefore makes the post-boot application environment safe for real-time applications by making PREEMPT_RT systems disable the rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_boot kernel boot parameter and acting as if this parameter had been set. This means that post-boot calls to synchronize_rcu_expedited() will be treated as if they were instead calls to synchronize_rcu(), thus preventing the IPIs, and thus avoiding disrupting real-time applications.

rcu: Unconditionally use rcuc threads on PREEMPT_RT
PREEMPT_RT systems have long used the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter to avoid use of RCU_SOFTIRQ handlers, which can disrupt real-time applications by invoking callbacks during return from interrupts that arrived while executing time-critical code. This kernel boot parameter instead runs RCU core processing in an 'rcuc' kthread, thus allowing the scheduler to do its job of avoiding disrupting time-critical code. This commit therefore disables the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter on PREEMPT_RT systems, thus forcing such systems to do RCU core processing in 'rcuc' kthreads. This approach has long been in use by users of the -rt patchset, and there have been no complaints. There is therefore no way for the system administrator to override this choice, at least without modifying and rebuilding the kernel.

merge their drivers through the SoC tree, those changes include:
- The SCMI firmware framework gains support for sensor notifications
and for controlling voltage domains.
- A large update for the Tegra memory controller driver, integrating
it better with the interconnect framework
- The memory controller subsystem gains support for Mediatek MT8192
- The reset controller framework gains support for sharing pulsed
resets
For Soc specific drivers in drivers/soc, the main changes are
- The Allwinner/sunxi MBUS gets a rework for the way it handles
dma_map_ops and offsets between physical and dma address spaces.
- An errata fix plus some cleanups for Freescale Layerscape SoCs
- A cleanup for renesas drivers regarding MMIO accesses.
- New SoC specific drivers for Mediatek MT8192 and MT8183 power domains
- New SoC specific drivers for Aspeed AST2600 LPC bus control
and SoC identification.
- Core Power Domain support for Qualcomm MSM8916, MSM8939, SDM660
and SDX55.
- A rework of the TI AM33xx 'genpd' power domain support to use
information from DT instead of platform data
- Support for TI AM64x SoCs
- Allow building some Amlogic drivers as modules instead of built-in
Finally, there are numerous cleanups and smaller bug fixes for
Mediatek, Tegra, Samsung, Qualcomm, TI OMAP, Amlogic, Rockchips,
Renesas, and Xilinx SoCs.
There is a trivial conflict in the cedrus driver, with two branches
adding the same CEDRUS_CAPABILITY_H265_DEC flag, and another trivial
remove/remove conflict in linux/dma-mapping.h.

That last patch also adds the CC-BY-4.0 license to LICENSES/dual; there was

KVM: arm64: Add kvm-arm.mode early kernel parameter
Add an early parameter that allows users to select the mode of operation for KVM/arm64. For now, the only supported value is "protected". By passing this flag users opt into the hypervisor placing additional restrictions on the host kernel. These allow the hypervisor to spawn guests whose state is kept private from the host. Restrictions will include stage-2 address translation to prevent host from accessing guest memory, filtering its SMC calls, etc. Without this parameter, the default behaviour remains selecting VHE/nVHE based on hardware support and CONFIG_ARM64_VHE.

powerpc/64s: flush L1D after user accesses
IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack. This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries of concern. This patch flushes the L1 cache after user accesses. This is part of the fix for CVE-2020-4788.

xen/events: defer eoi in case of excessive number of events
In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result. In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in. The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests performed an event storm). How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the value was chosen after testing with different delay values). This is part of XSA-332.

lib, include/linux: add usercopy failure capability
Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3. The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection. syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use this particular feature also. The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions. The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability (copy_from_user, ...). The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures to x86. This patch (of 3): Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions. Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy functions. The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not.

networking changes for the 5.10 merge window
Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure. Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain. Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel version parsing or trial and error). Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge. Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces. Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK packets of TCPv6. In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options. Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments. Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC. Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016. Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit kernel problem. Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs. Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting to a blocking notifier. Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs, opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP option use. Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life of TCP CC implemented in BPF. Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the user space infra we have. Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing. Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'. Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls. Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps. Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use is for pretty printing structures). Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf syscall. Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update; report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not). Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space. Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth). In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms. Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface. Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver. Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to mscc_ocelot switches. Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in dpaa-eth. Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3) offload. Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS. Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as 7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP. Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver, and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx. Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads on recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share a descriptor entry. Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the crypto subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy directory. Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free. Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this conversion is not yet complete).

Documentation: kernel-parameters: clarify "module." parameters
The command-line parameters "dyndbg" and "async_probe" are not parameters for kernel/module.c but instead they are for the module that is being loaded. Try to make that distinction in the help text. OTOH, "module.sig_enforce" is handled as a parameter of kernel/module.c so "module." is correct for it.

dma-contiguous: provide the ability to reserve per-numa CMA
Right now, drivers like ARM SMMU are using dma_alloc_coherent() to get coherent DMA buffers to save their command queues and page tables. As there is only one default CMA in the whole system, SMMUs on nodes other than node0 will get remote memory. This leads to significant latency. This patch provides per-numa CMA so that drivers like SMMU can get local memory. Tests show localizing CMA can decrease dma_unmap latency much. For instance, before this patch, SMMU on node2 has to wait for more than 560ns for the completion of CMD_SYNC in an empty command queue; with this patch, it needs 240ns only. A positive side effect of this patch would be improving performance even further for those users who are worried about performance more than DMA security and use iommu.passthrough=1 to skip IOMMU. With local CMA, all drivers can get local coherent DMA buffers. Also, this patch changes the default CONFIG_CMA_AREAS to 19 in NUMA. As 1+CONFIG_CMA_AREAS should be quite enough for most servers on the market even they enable both hugetlb_cma and pernuma_cma. 2 numa nodes: 2(hugetlb) + 2(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 5 4 numa nodes: 4(hugetlb) + 4(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 9 8 numa nodes: 8(hugetlb) + 8(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 17 Signed-off-by: Barry Song <song.bao.hua@hisilicon.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> |

rcutorture: Allow pointer leaks to test diagnostic code
This commit adds an rcutorture.leakpointer module parameter that intentionally leaks an RCU-protected pointer out of the RCU read-side critical section and checks to see if the corresponding grace period has elapsed, emitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() if so. This module parameter can be used to test facilities like CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD that end grace periods quickly. While in the area, also document rcutorture.irqreader, which was previously left out. Reported-by Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu: Provide optional RCU-reader exit delay for strict GPs
The goal of this series is to increase the probability of tools like KASAN detecting that an RCU-protected pointer was used outside of its RCU read-side critical section. Thus far, the approach has been to make grace periods and callback processing happen faster. Another approach is to delay the pointer leaker. This commit therefore allows a delay to be applied to exit from RCU read-side critical sections. This slowdown is specified by a new rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies this delay in microseconds, defaulting to zero.

rcuperf: Change rcuperf to rcuscale
This commit further avoids conflation of rcuperf with the kernel's perf feature by renaming kernel/rcu/rcuperf.c to kernel/rcu/rcuscale.c, and also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside this file. This has the side effect of changing the names of the kernel boot parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh are also updated. The rcutorture --torture type was also updated from rcuperf to rcuscale. [ paulmck: Fix bugs located by Stephen Rothwell. ] Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

lib: Add backtrace_idle parameter to force backtrace of idle CPUs
Currently, the nmi_cpu_backtrace() declines to produce backtraces for idle CPUs. This is a good choice in the common case in which problems are caused only by non-idle CPUs. However, there are occasionally situations in which idle CPUs are helping to cause problems. This commit therefore adds an nmi_backtrace.backtrace_idle kernel boot parameter that causes nmi_cpu_backtrace() to dump stacks even of idle CPUs. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

mm, slub: extend slub_debug syntax for multiple blocks
Patch series "slub_debug fixes and improvements". The slub_debug kernel boot parameter can either apply a single set of options to all caches or a list of caches. There is a use case where debugging is applied for all caches and then disabled at runtime for specific caches, for performance and memory consumption reasons [1]. As runtime changes are dangerous, extend the boot parameter syntax so that multiple blocks of either global or slab-specific options can be specified, with blocks delimited by ';'. This will also support the use case of [1] without runtime changes. For details see the updated Documentation/vm/slub.rst [1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/1383cd32-1ddc-4dac-b5f8-9c42282fa81c@codeaurora.org [weiyongjun1@huawei.com: make parse_slub_debug_flags() static] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702150522.4940-1-weiyongjun1@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Cc: Vijayanand Jitta <vjitta@codeaurora.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200610163135.17364-2-vbabka@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

powerpc updates for 5.9
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.
- Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on Power9
or later.
- Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be unsupported on
Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way to implement the
functionality it requests. This risks breaking userspace, though we believe
it is unused in practice.
- A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion checking.
We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other architectures.
- Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update code, which
tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised systems, but was prone
to crashes and other problems.
- Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.
- A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link stack
(branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.
- Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as usual.

Driver core changes for 5.9-rc1
Here is the "big" set of changes to the driver core, and some drivers
using the changes, for 5.9-rc1.
"Biggest" thing in here is the device link exposure in sysfs, to help
to tame the madness that is SoC device tree representations and driver
interactions with it.
Other stuff in here that is interesting is:
- device probe log helper so that drivers can report problems in
a unified way easier.
- devres functions added
- DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_* macro added to make it harder to write
incorrect sysfs file permissions
- documentation cleanups
- ability for debugfs to be present in the kernel, yet not
exposed to userspace. Needed for systems that want it
enabled, but do not trust users, so they can still use some
kernel functions that were otherwise disabled.
- other minor fixes and cleanups
The patches outside of drivers/base/ all have acks from the respective
subsystem maintainers to go through this tree instead of theirs.
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

It's been a busy cycle for documentation - hopefully the busiest for a
while to come. Changes include:
- Some new Chinese translations
- Progress on the battle against double words words and non-HTTPS URLs
- Some block-mq documentation
- More RST conversions from Mauro. At this point, that task is
essentially complete, so we shouldn't see this kind of churn again for a
while. Unless we decide to switch to asciidoc or something...:)
- Lots of typo fixes, warning fixes, and more.

Support for FSGSBASE. Almost 5 years after the first RFC to support it,
this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and actually works. This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out there ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels back which opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole. The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the context switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without kernel interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the exception entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they cannot longer rely on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as enforced via prctl() on non FSGSBASE enabled systemn). All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and exceptions) can still just utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry comes from user space. Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no benefit as SWAPGS is only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and retrieving the kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real benefit of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes. The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl8pGnoTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoTYJD/9873GkwvGcc/Vq/dJH1szGTgFftPyZ c/Y9gzx7EGBPLo25BS820L+ZlynzXHDxExKfCEaD10TZfe5XIc1vYNR0J74M2NmK IBgEDstJeW93ai+rHCFRXIevhpzU4GgGYJ1MeeOgbVMN3aGU1g6HfzMvtF0fPn8Y n6fsLZa43wgnoTdjwjjikpDTrzoZbaL1mbODBzBVPAaTbim7IKKTge6r/iCKrOjz Uixvm3g9lVzx52zidJ9kWa8esmbOM1j0EPe7/hy3qH9DFo87KxEzjHNH3T6gY5t6 NJhRAIfY+YyTHpPCUCshj6IkRudE6w/qjEAmKP9kWZxoJrvPCTWOhCzelwsFS9b9 gxEYfsnaKhsfNhB6fi0PtWlMzPINmEA7SuPza33u5WtQUK7s1iNlgHfvMbjstbwg MSETn4SG2/ZyzUrSC06lVwV8kh0RgM3cENc/jpFfIHD0vKGI3qfka/1RY94kcOCG AeJd0YRSU2RqL7lmxhHyG8tdb8eexns41IzbPCLXX2sF00eKNkVvMRYT2mKfKLFF q8v1x7yuwmODdXfFR6NdCkGm9IU7wtL6wuQ8Nhu9UraFmcXo6X6FLJC18FqcvSb9 jvcRP4XY/8pNjjf44JB8yWfah0xGQsaMIKQGP4yLv4j6Xk1xAQKH1MqcC7l1D2HN 5Z24GibFqSK/vA== =QaAN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-fsgsbase-2020-08-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 fsgsbase from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for FSGSBASE.

powerpc/book3s64/radix: Add kernel command line option to disable radix GTSE
This adds a kernel command line option that can be used to disable GTSE support. Disabling GTSE implies kernel will make hcalls to invalidate TLB entries. This was done so that we can do VM migration between configs that enable/disable GTSE support via hypervisor. To migrate a VM from a system that supports GTSE to a system that doesn't, we can boot the guest with radix_hcall_invalidate=on, thereby forcing the guest to use hcalls for TLB invalidates. The check for hcall availability is done in pSeries_setup_arch so that the panic message appears on the console.

debugfs: Add access restriction option
Since debugfs include sensitive information it need to be treated carefully. But it also has many very useful debug functions for userspace. With this option we can have same configuration for system with need of debugfs and a way to turn it off. This gives a extra protection for exposure on systems where user-space services with system access are attacked. It is controlled by a configurable default value that can be override with a kernel command line parameter. (debugfs=) It can be on or off, but also internally on but not seen from user-space. This no-mount mode do not register a debugfs as filesystem, but client can register their parts in the internal structures. This data can be readed with a debugger or saved with a crashkernel. When it is off clients get EPERM error when accessing the functions for registering their components.

x86/kvm: Add "nopvspin" parameter to disable PV spinlocks
There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" on XEN platform and "hv_nopvspin" on HYPER_V). That feature is missed on KVM, add a new parameter "nopvspin" to disable PV spinlocks for KVM guest.

cpufreq: Specify default governor on command line
Currently, the only way to specify the default CPUfreq governor is via Kconfig options, which suits users who can build the kernel themselves perfectly. However, for those who use a distro-like kernel (such as Android, with the Generic Kernel Image project), the only way to use a non-default governor is to boot to userspace, and to then switch using the sysfs interface. Being able to specify the default governor on the command line, like is the case for cpuidle, would allow those users to specify their governor of choice earlier on, and to simplify the userspace boot procedure slighlty. To support this use-case, add a kernel command line parameter allowing the default governor for CPUfreq to be specified, which takes precedence over the built-in default. This implementation has one notable limitation: the default governor must be registered before the driver. This is solved for builtin governors and drivers using appropriate *_initcall() functions. And in the modular case, this must be reflected as a constraint on the module loading order.

rcu/tree: cache specified number of objects
In order to reduce the dynamic need for pages in kfree_rcu(), pre-allocate a configurable number of pages per CPU and link them in a list. When kfree_rcu() reclaims objects, the object's container page is cached into a list instead of being released to the low-level page allocator. Such an approach provides O(1) access to free pages while also reducing the number of requests to the page allocator. It also makes the kfree_rcu() code to have free pages available during a low memory condition. A read-only sysfs parameter (rcu_min_cached_objs) reflects the minimum number of allowed cached pages per CPU. Signed-off-by: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Pull x86 srbds fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The 9th episode of the dime novel "The performance killer" with the
subtitle "Slow Randomizing Boosts Denial of Service".
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from
the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New
microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of
RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten
before it is released for reuse. This is equivalent to a full bus
lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in
parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a
locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two
cachelines at once.
The mitigation support comes with the usual pile of unpleasant
ingredients:
- command line options
- sysfs file
- microcode checks
- a list of vulnerable CPUs identified by model and stepping this
time which requires stepping match support for the cpu match logic.
- the inevitable slowdown of affected CPUs"

kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.
This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or
1, not the full range of integers.
We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the
previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put
the alias table in alphabetical order.

kernel/sysctl: support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line
Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3. This series adds support for something that seems like many people always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of sysctl.vm.something=1 The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the sysctl variants. I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more. The conversion also has varying level of success: - numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything but warn on deprecated value these days. - hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer value - nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic, so there's no straighforward conversion possible - traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems pointless for a single flag This patch (of 5): A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line. Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this. Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter - hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning. A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical. Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount. This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value are reported in the kernel log. The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/ then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel. Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values from userspace is practical enough.

kernel: add panic_on_taint
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

hugetlbfs: clean up command line processing
With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code.
- Make code match desired semantics
- Update documentation with semantics
- Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'.
- Consistently name command line parsing routines.
- Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have
been specified.
- Add comments to code
- Describe some of the subtle interactions
- Describe semantics of command line arguments
This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of
gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line,
hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G
would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and,
# grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 0
# sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages
vm.nr_hugepages = 2
vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2
# cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
2
After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc,
sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this.
To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was
made to command line processing. Previously the command line,
hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256
would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would
be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be
allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of
256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of
implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the
default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the
code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate
pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for
gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

kgdb patches for 5.8-rc1
By far the biggest change in this cycle are the changes that allow much earlier debug of systems that are hooked up via UART by taking advantage of the earlycon framework to implement the kgdb I/O hooks before handing over to the regular polling I/O drivers once they are available. When discussing Doug's work we also found and fixed an broken raw_smp_processor_id() sequence in in_dbg_master(). Also included are a collection of much smaller fixes and tweaks: a couple of tweaks to ged rid of doc gen or coccicheck warnings, future proof some internal calculations that made implicit power-of-2 assumptions and eliminate some rather weird handling of magic environment variables in kdb.

X86 timer specific updates:
- Add TPAUSE based delay which allows the CPU to enter an optimized power
state while waiting for the delay to pass. The delay is based on TSC
cycles.
- Add tsc_early_khz command line parameter to workaround the problem that
overclocked CPUs can report the wrong frequency via CPUID.16h which
causes the refined calibration to fail because the delta to the initial
frequency value is too big. With the parameter users can provide an
halfways accurate initial value.

Documentation: kgdboc: Document new kgdboc_earlycon parameter
The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb
using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter.
Document it.
Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting
of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for
more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc"
and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works
if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works
in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.

x86/tsc: Add tsc_early_khz command line parameter
Changing base clock frequency directly impacts TSC Hz but not CPUID.16h
value. An overclocked CPU supporting CPUID.16h and with partial CPUID.15h
support will set TSC KHZ according to "best guess" given by CPUID.16h
relying on tsc_refine_calibration_work to give better numbers later.
tsc_refine_calibration_work will refuse to do its work when the outcome is
off the early TSC KHZ value by more than 1% which is certain to happen on
an overclocked system.
Fix this by adding a tsc_early_khz command line parameter that makes the
kernel skip early TSC calibration and use the given value instead.
This allows the user to provide the expected TSC frequency that is closer
to reality than the one reported by the hardware, enabling
tsc_refine_calibration_work to do meaningful error checking.
[ tglx: Made the variable __initdata as it's only used on init and
removed the error checking in the argument parser because
kstrto*() only stores to the variable if the string is valid ]

rcutorture: Add flag to produce non-busy-wait task stalls
This commit aids testing of RCU task stall warning messages by adding an rcutorture.stall_cpu_block module parameter that results in the induced stall sleeping within the RCU read-side critical section. Spinning with interrupts disabled is still available via the rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff module parameter, and specifying neither of these two module parameters will spin with preemption disabled. Note that sleeping (as opposed to preemption) results in additional complaints from RCU at context-switch time, so yet more testing. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu-tasks: Provide boot parameter to delay IPIs until late in grace period
This commit provides a rcupdate.rcu_task_ipi_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies how old the RCU tasks trace grace period must be before the grace-period kthread starts sending IPIs. This delay allows more tasks to pass through rcu_tasks_qs() quiescent states, thus reducing (or even eliminating) the number of IPIs that must be sent. On a short rcutorture test setting this kernel boot parameter to HZ/2 resulted in zero IPIs for all 877 RCU-tasks trace grace periods that elapsed during that test. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

x86/setup: Add an initrdmem= option to specify initrd physical address
Add the initrdmem option: initrdmem=ss[KMG],nn[KMG] which is used to specify the physical address of the initrd, almost always an address in FLASH. Also add code for x86 to use the existing phys_init_start and phys_init_size variables in the kernel. This is useful in cases where a kernel and an initrd is placed in FLASH, but there is no firmware file system structure in the FLASH. One such situation occurs when unused FLASH space on UEFI systems has been reclaimed by, e.g., taking it from the Management Engine. For example, on many systems, the ME is given half the FLASH part; not only is 2.75M of an 8M part unused; but 10.75M of a 16M part is unused. This space can be used to contain an initrd, but need to tell Linux where it is. This space is "raw": due to, e.g., UEFI limitations: it can not be added to UEFI firmware volumes without rebuilding UEFI from source or writing a UEFI device driver. It can be referenced only as a physical address and size. At the same time, if a kernel can be "netbooted" or loaded from GRUB or syslinux, the option of not using the physical address specification should be available. Then, it is easy to boot the kernel and provide an initrd; or boot the the kernel and let it use the initrd in FLASH. In practice, this has proven to be very helpful when integrating Linux into FLASH on x86. Hence, the most flexible and convenient path is to enable the initrdmem command line option in a way that it is the last choice tried. For example, on the DigitalLoggers Atomic Pi, an image into FLASH can be burnt in with a built-in command line which includes: initrdmem=0xff968000,0x200000 which specifies a location and size.

x86/speculation: Add Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) mitigation
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is released for reuse. While it is present on all affected CPU models, the microcode mitigation is not needed on models that enumerate ARCH_CAPABILITIES[MDS_NO] in the cases where TSX is not supported or has been disabled with TSX_CTRL. The mitigation is activated by default on affected processors and it increases latency for RDRAND and RDSEED instructions. Among other effects this will reduce throughput from /dev/urandom. * Enable administrator to configure the mitigation off when desired using either mitigations=off or srbds=off. * Export vulnerability status via sysfs * Rename file-scoped macros to apply for non-whitelist table initializations.

KVM/MIPS has been broken since 5.5, it does not compile due to a patch committed
by MIPS maintainers. I had already prepared a fix, but the MIPS maintainers
prefer to fix it in generic code rather than KVM so they are taking care of it.

PM: sleep: Add pm_debug_messages kernel command line option
Debug messages from the system suspend/hibernation infrastructure are disabled by default, and can only be enabled after the system has boot up via /sys/power/pm_debug_messages. This makes the hibernation resume hard to track as it involves system boot up across hibernation. There's no chance for software_resume() to track the resume process, for example. Add a kernel command line option to set pm_debug_messages during boot up. Signed-off-by: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com> [ rjw: Subject & changelog ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
"We've got twenty SELinux patches for the v5.7 merge window, the
highlights are below:
- Deprecate setting /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot to 1.
This flag was originally created to deal with legacy userspace and
the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag. We changed the default from
1 to 0 back in Linux v4.4 and now we are taking the next step of
deprecating it, at some point in the future we will take the final
step of rejecting 1.
- Allow kernfs symlinks to inherit the SELinux label of the parent
directory. In order to preserve backwards compatibility this is
protected by the genfs_seclabel_symlinks SELinux policy capability.
- Optimize how we store filename transitions in the kernel, resulting
in some significant improvements to policy load times.
- Do a better job calculating our internal hash table sizes which
resulted in additional policy load improvements and likely general
SELinux performance improvements as well.
- Remove the unused initial SIDs (labels) and improve how we handle
initial SIDs.
- Enable per-file labeling for the bpf filesystem.
- Ensure that we properly label NFS v4.2 filesystems to avoid a
temporary unlabeled condition.
- Add some missing XFS quota command types to the SELinux quota
access controls.
- Fix a problem where we were not updating the seq_file position
index correctly in selinuxfs.
- We consolidate some duplicated code into helper functions.
- A number of list to array conversions.
- Update Stephen Smalley's email address in MAINTAINERS"

Support for "split lock" detection:
- Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache
lines have to acquire the global bus lock. This is at least 1k cycles
slower than an atomic operation within a cache line and disrupts
performance on other cores. Aside of performance disruption this is
a unpriviledged form of DoS.
Some newer CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when such an
operation is attempted. The detection is by default enabled in warning
mode which will warn once when a user space application is caught. A
command line option allows to disable the detection or to select fatal
mode which will terminate offending applications with SIGBUS.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and
NUMA placement logic to not work against each other. The intended
result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations.
- Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve
task placement on thermally overloaded systems.
- Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86
CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU
frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data
via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity
estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even
if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As
usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing
the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.)
- Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity
utilization on asymmetric topologies. (big.LITTLE systems)
- PSI fixes and optimizations.
- RT scheduling capacity awareness fixes & improvements.
- Optimize the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED constraints code.
- Misc fixes, cleanups and optimizations - see the changelog for
details"

acpi/x86: add a kernel parameter to disable ACPI BGRT
BGRT is for displaying seamless OEM logo from booting to login screen; however, this mechanism does not always work well on all configurations and the OEM logo can be displayed multiple times.

sched/fair: Enable tuning of decay period
Thermal pressure follows pelt signals which means the decay period for thermal pressure is the default pelt decay period. Depending on SoC characteristics and thermal activity, it might be beneficial to decay thermal pressure slower, but still in-tune with the pelt signals.

driver core: Add fw_devlink kernel commandline option
fwnode_operations.add_links allows creating device links from information provided by firmware. fwnode_operations.add_links is currently implemented only by OF/devicetree code and a specific case of efi. However, there's nothing preventing ACPI or other firmware types from implementing it. The OF implementation is currently controlled by a kernel commandline parameter called of_devlink. Since this feature is generic isn't limited to OF, add a generic fw_devlink kernel commandline parameter to control this feature across firmware types.

torture: Allow disabling of boottime CPU-hotplug torture operations
In theory, RCU-hotplug operations are supposed to work as soon as there is more than one CPU online. However, in practice, in normal production there is no way to make them happen until userspace is up and running. Besides which, on smaller systems, rcutorture doesn't start doing hotplug operations until 30 seconds after the start of boot, which on most systems also means the better part of 30 seconds after the end of boot. This commit therefore provides a new torture.disable_onoff_at_boot kernel boot parameter that suppresses CPU-hotplug torture operations until about the time that init is spawned. Of course, if you know of a need for boottime CPU-hotplug operations, then you should avoid passing this argument to any of the torture tests. You might also want to look at the splats linked to below. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191206185208.GA25636@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72/ Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcutorture: Allow boottime stall warnings to be suppressed
In normal production, an RCU CPU stall warning at boottime is often just as bad as at any other time. In fact, given the desire for fast boot, any sort of long-term stall at boot is a bad idea. However, heavy rcutorture testing on large hyperthreaded systems can generate boottime RCU CPU stalls as a matter of course. This commit therefore provides a kernel boot parameter that suppresses reporting of boottime RCU CPU stall warnings and similarly of rcutorture writer stalls. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

rcu: React to callback overload by aggressively seeking quiescent states
In default configutions, RCU currently waits at least 100 milliseconds before asking cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help seeking quiescent states to end a grace period. But 100 milliseconds can be one good long time during an RCU callback flood, for example, as can happen when user processes repeatedly open and close files in a tight loop. These 100-millisecond gaps in successive grace periods during a callback flood can result in excessive numbers of callbacks piling up, unnecessarily increasing memory footprint. This commit therefore asks cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help as early as the first FQS scan when at least one of the CPUs has more than 20,000 callbacks queued, a number that can be changed using the new rcutree.qovld kernel boot parameter. An auxiliary qovld_calc variable is used to avoid acquisition of locks that have not yet been initialized. Early tests indicate that this reduces the RCU-callback memory footprint during rcutorture floods by from 50% to 4x, depending on configuration.

x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection by kernel
A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data that spans
two cache lines. In order to maintain atomicity the core takes a global bus
lock.
This is typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a
cache line. It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait
for the bus lock to be released before their memory operations can
complete). For real-time systems this may mean missing deadlines. For other
systems it may just be very annoying.
Some CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when a split lock is
attempted.
Provide a command line option to give the user choices on how to handle
this:
split_lock_detect=
off - not enabled (no traps for split locks)
warn - warn once when an application does a
split lock, but allow it to continue
running.
fatal - Send SIGBUS to applications that cause split lock
On systems that support split lock detection the default is "warn". Note
that if the kernel hits a split lock in any mode other than "off" it will
OOPs.
One implementation wrinkle is that the MSR to control the split lock
detection is per-core, not per thread. This might result in some short
lived races on HT systems in "warn" mode if Linux tries to enable on one
thread while disabling on the other. Race analysis by Sean Christopherson:
- Toggling of split-lock is only done in "warn" mode. Worst case
scenario of a race is that a misbehaving task will generate multiple
#AC exceptions on the same instruction. And this race will only occur
if both siblings are running tasks that generate split-lock #ACs, e.g.
a race where sibling threads are writing different values will only
occur if CPUx is disabling split-lock after an #AC and CPUy is
re-enabling split-lock after *its* previous task generated an #AC.
- Transitioning between off/warn/fatal modes at runtime isn't supported
and disabling is tracked per task, so hardware will always reach a steady
state that matches the configured mode. I.e. split-lock is guaranteed to
be enabled in hardware once all _TIF_SLD threads have been scheduled out.

Documentation,selinux: deprecate setting checkreqprot to 1
Deprecate setting the SELinux checkreqprot tunable to 1 via kernel
parameter or /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot. Setting it to 0 is left
intact for compatibility since Android and some Linux distributions
do so for security and treat an inability to set it as a fatal error.
Eventually setting it to 0 will become a no-op and the kernel will
stop using checkreqprot's value internally altogether.
checkreqprot was originally introduced as a compatibility mechanism
for legacy userspace and the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag.
However, if set to 1, it weakens security by allowing mappings to be
made executable without authorization by policy. The default value
for the SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE config option was changed
from 1 to 0 in commit

Tracing updates:
- Added new "bootconfig".
Looks for a file appended to initrd to add boot config options.
This has been discussed thoroughly at Linux Plumbers.
Very useful for adding kprobes at bootup.
Only enabled if "bootconfig" is on the real kernel command line.
- Created dynamic event creation.
Merges common code between creating synthetic events and
kprobe events.
- Rename perf "ring_buffer" structure to "perf_buffer"
- Rename ftrace "ring_buffer" structure to "trace_buffer"
Had to rename existing "trace_buffer" to "array_buffer"
- Allow trace_printk() to work withing (some) tracing code.
- Sort of tracing configs to be a little better organized
- Fixed bug where ftrace_graph hash was not being protected properly
- Various other small fixes and clean ups

bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline
As the bootconfig is appended to the initrd it is not as easy to modify as the kernel command line. If there's some issue with the kernel, and the developer wants to boot a pristine kernel, it should not be needed to modify the initrd to remove the bootconfig for a single boot. As bootconfig is silently added (if the admin does not know where to look they may not know it's being loaded). It should be explicitly added to the kernel cmdline. The loading of the bootconfig is only done if "bootconfig" is on the kernel command line. This will let admins know that the kernel command line is extended. Note, after adding printk()s for when the size is too great or the checksum is wrong, exposed that the current method always looked for the boot config, and if this size and checksum matched, it would parse it (as if either is wrong a printk has been added to show this). It's better to only check this if the boot config is asked to be looked for.

The affinity of managed interrupts is completely controlled by the

the automatically assigned affinity correlates to the multi-queue
CPU handling of block devices.
If the generated affinity mask spaws both housekeeping and isolated CPUs
the interrupt could be routed to an isolated CPU which would then be
disturbed by I/O submitted by a housekeeping CPU.
The new mechamism ensures that as long as one housekeeping CPU is online
in the assigned affinity mask the interrupt is routed to a housekeeping
CPU.
If there is no online housekeeping CPU in the affinity mask, then the
interrupt is routed to an isolated CPU to keep the device queue intact,
but unless the isolated CPU submits I/O by itself these interrupts are
not raised.

rcuperf: Add kfree_rcu() performance Tests
This test runs kfree_rcu() in a loop to measure performance of the new kfree_rcu() batching functionality. The following table shows results when booting with arguments: rcuperf.kfree_loops=20000 rcuperf.kfree_alloc_num=8000 rcuperf.kfree_rcu_test=1 rcuperf.kfree_no_batch=X rcuperf.kfree_no_batch=X # Grace Periods Test Duration (s) X=1 (old behavior) 9133 11.5 X=0 (new behavior) 1732 12.5 On a 16 CPU system with the above boot parameters, we see that the total number of grace periods that elapse during the test drops from 9133 when not batching to 1732 when batching (a 5X improvement). The kfree_rcu() flood itself slows down a bit when batching, though, as shown. Note that the active memory consumption during the kfree_rcu() flood does increase to around 200-250MB due to the batching (from around 50MB without batching). However, this memory consumption is relatively constant. In other words, the system is able to keep up with the kfree_rcu() load. The memory consumption comes down considerably if KFREE_DRAIN_JIFFIES is increased from HZ/50 to HZ/80. A later patch will reduce memory consumption further by using multiple lists. Also, when running the test, please disable CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PROVE_RCU for realistic comparisons with/without batching.

genirq, sched/isolation: Isolate from handling managed interrupts
The affinity of managed interrupts is completely handled in the kernel and cannot be changed via the /proc/irq/* interfaces from user space. As the kernel tries to spread out interrupts evenly accross CPUs on x86 to prevent vector exhaustion, it can happen that a managed interrupt whose affinity mask contains both isolated and housekeeping CPUs is routed to an isolated CPU. As a consequence IO submitted on a housekeeping CPU causes interrupts on the isolated CPU. Add a new sub-parameter 'managed_irq' for 'isolcpus' and the corresponding logic in the interrupt affinity selection code. The subparameter indicates to the interrupt affinity selection logic that it should try to avoid the above scenario. This isolation is best effort and only effective if the automatically assigned interrupt mask of a device queue contains isolated and housekeeping CPUs. If housekeeping CPUs are online then such interrupts are directed to the housekeeping CPU so that IO submitted on the housekeeping CPU cannot disturb the isolated CPU. If a queue's affinity mask contains only isolated CPUs then this parameter has no effect on the interrupt routing decision, though interrupts are only happening when tasks running on those isolated CPUs submit IO. IO submitted on housekeeping CPUs has no influence on those queues. If the affinity mask contains both housekeeping and isolated CPUs, but none of the contained housekeeping CPUs is online, then the interrupt is also routed to an isolated CPU. Interrupts are only delivered when one of the isolated CPUs in the affinity mask submits IO. If one of the contained housekeeping CPUs comes online, the CPU hotplug logic migrates the interrupt automatically back to the upcoming housekeeping CPU. Depending on the type of interrupt controller, this can require that at least one interrupt is delivered to the isolated CPU in order to complete the migration.

efi/x86: Limit EFI old memory map to SGI UV machines
We carry a quirk in the x86 EFI code to switch back to an older method of mapping the EFI runtime services memory regions, because it was deemed risky at the time to implement a new method without providing a fallback to the old method in case problems arose. Such problems did arise, but they appear to be limited to SGI UV1 machines, and so these are the only ones for which the fallback gets enabled automatically (via a DMI quirk). The fallback can be enabled manually as well, by passing efi=old_map, but there is very little evidence that suggests that this is something that is being relied upon in the field. Given that UV1 support is not enabled by default by the distros (Ubuntu, Fedora), there is no point in carrying this fallback code all the time if there are no other users. So let's move it into the UV support code, and document that efi=old_map now requires this support code to be enabled. Note that efi=old_map has been used in the past on other SGI UV machines to work around kernel regressions in production, so we keep the option to enable it by hand, but only if the kernel was built with UV support.

efi: Allow disabling PCI busmastering on bridges during boot
Add an option to disable the busmaster bit in the control register on all PCI bridges before calling ExitBootServices() and passing control to the runtime kernel. System firmware may configure the IOMMU to prevent malicious PCI devices from being able to attack the OS via DMA. However, since firmware can't guarantee that the OS is IOMMU-aware, it will tear down IOMMU configuration when ExitBootServices() is called. This leaves a window between where a hostile device could still cause damage before Linux configures the IOMMU again. If CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA is enabled or "efi=disable_early_pci_dma" is passed on the command line, the EFI stub will clear the busmaster bit on all PCI bridges before ExitBootServices() is called. This will prevent any malicious PCI devices from being able to perform DMA until the kernel reenables busmastering after configuring the IOMMU. This option may cause failures with some poorly behaved hardware and should not be enabled without testing. The kernel commandline options "efi=disable_early_pci_dma" or "efi=no_disable_early_pci_dma" may be used to override the default. Note that PCI devices downstream from PCI bridges are disconnected from their drivers first, using the UEFI driver model API, so that DMA can be disabled safely at the bridge level.

TTY/Serial patches for 5.5-rc1
Here is the "big" tty and serial driver patches for 5.5-rc1. It's a bit
later in the merge window than normal as I wanted to make sure some
last-minute patches applied to it were all sane. They seem to be :)
There's a lot of little stuff in here, for the tty core, and for lots of
serial drivers:
- reverts of uartlite serial driver patches that were wrong
- msm-serial driver fixes
- serial core updates and fixes
- tty core fixes
- serial driver dma mapping api changes
- lots of other tiny fixes and updates for serial drivers
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.

Here's the main documentation changes for 5.5:
- Various kerneldoc script enhancements.
- More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to
convert, but we're a ways from done still.
- Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last. Now we just need
to get maintainers to fill in the profiles...
- A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of
systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular).
- The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to
load a lot of paper.
- A script and documentation making it easy for maintainers to add Link:
tags at commit time.
Also included is the removal of a bunch of spurious CR characters.

Driver core patches for 5.5-rc1
Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 5.5-rc1 There's a few minor cleanups and fixes in here, but the majority of the patches in here fall into two buckets: - debugfs api cleanups and fixes - driver core device link support for boot dependancy issues The debugfs api cleanups are working to slowly refactor the debugfs apis so that it is even harder to use incorrectly. That work has been happening for the past few kernel releases and will continue over time, it's a long-term project/goal The driver core device link support missed 5.4 by just a bit, so it's been sitting and baking for many months now. It's from Saravana Kannan to help resolve the problems that DT-based systems have at boot time with dependancy graphs and kernel modules. Turns out that no one has actually tried to build a generic arm64 kernel with loads of modules and have it "just work" for a variety of platforms (like a distro kernel) The big problem turned out to be a lack of depandancy information between different areas of DT entries, and the work here resolves that problem and now allows devices to boot properly, and quicker than a monolith kernel. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported issues.

x86/speculation: Fix incorrect MDS/TAA mitigation status
For MDS vulnerable processors with TSX support, enabling either MDS or
TAA mitigations will enable the use of VERW to flush internal processor
buffers at the right code path. IOW, they are either both mitigated
or both not. However, if the command line options are inconsistent,
the vulnerabilites sysfs files may not report the mitigation status
correctly.
For example, with only the "mds=off" option:
vulnerabilities/mds:Vulnerable; SMT vulnerable
vulnerabilities/tsx_async_abort:Mitigation: Clear CPU buffers; SMT vulnerable
The mds vulnerabilities file has wrong status in this case. Similarly,
the taa vulnerability file will be wrong with mds mitigation on, but
taa off.
Change taa_select_mitigation() to sync up the two mitigation status
and have them turned off if both "mds=off" and "tsx_async_abort=off"
are present.
Update documentation to emphasize the fact that both "mds=off" and
"tsx_async_abort=off" have to be specified together for processors that
are affected by both TAA and MDS to be effective.
[ bp: Massage and add kernel-parameters.txt change too. ]

x86/efi: Add efi_fake_mem support for EFI_MEMORY_SP
Given that EFI_MEMORY_SP is platform BIOS policy decision for marking memory ranges as "reserved for a specific purpose" there will inevitably be scenarios where the BIOS omits the attribute in situations where it is desired. Unlike other attributes if the OS wants to reserve this memory from the kernel the reservation needs to happen early in init. So early, in fact, that it needs to happen before e820__memblock_setup() which is a pre-requisite for efi_fake_memmap() that wants to allocate memory for the updated table. Introduce an x86 specific efi_fake_memmap_early() that can search for attempts to set EFI_MEMORY_SP via efi_fake_mem and update the e820 table accordingly. The KASLR code that scans the command line looking for user-directed memory reservations also needs to be updated to consider "efi_fake_mem=nn@ss:0x40000" requests.

efi: Common enable/disable infrastructure for EFI soft reservation
UEFI 2.8 defines an EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute bit to augment the interpretation of the EFI Memory Types as "reserved for a specific purpose". The proposed Linux behavior for specific purpose memory is that it is reserved for direct-access (device-dax) by default and not available for any kernel usage, not even as an OOM fallback. Later, through udev scripts or another init mechanism, these device-dax claimed ranges can be reconfigured and hot-added to the available System-RAM with a unique node identifier. This device-dax management scheme implements "soft" in the "soft reserved" designation by allowing some or all of the reservation to be recovered as typical memory. This policy can be disabled at compile-time with CONFIG_EFI_SOFT_RESERVE=n, or runtime with efi=nosoftreserve. As for this patch, define the common helpers to determine if the EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute should be honored. The determination needs to be made early to prevent the kernel from being loaded into soft-reserved memory, or otherwise allowing early allocations to land there. Follow-on changes are needed per architecture to leverage these helpers in their respective mem-init paths.

kvm: mmu: ITLB_MULTIHIT mitigation
With some Intel processors, putting the same virtual address in the TLB as both a 4 KiB and 2 MiB page can confuse the instruction fetch unit and cause the processor to issue a machine check resulting in a CPU lockup. Unfortunately when EPT page tables use huge pages, it is possible for a malicious guest to cause this situation. Add a knob to mark huge pages as non-executable. When the nx_huge_pages parameter is enabled (and we are using EPT), all huge pages are marked as NX. If the guest attempts to execute in one of those pages, the page is broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable. This is not an issue for shadow paging (except nested EPT), because then the host is in control of TLB flushes and the problematic situation cannot happen. With nested EPT, again the nested guest can cause problems shadow and direct EPT is treated in the same way.

x86/xen: Return from panic notifier
Currently execution of panic() continues until Xen's panic notifier (xen_panic_event()) is called at which point we make a hypercall that never returns. This means that any notifier that is supposed to be called later as well as significant part of panic() code (such as pstore writes from kmsg_dump()) is never executed. There is no reason for xen_panic_event() to be this last point in execution since panic()'s emergency_restart() will call into xen_emergency_restart() from where we can perform our hypercall. Nevertheless, we will provide xen_legacy_crash boot option that will preserve original behavior during crash. This option could be used, for example, if running kernel dumper (which happens after panic notifiers) is undesirable.

of: property: Add functional dependency link from DT bindings
Add device links after the devices are created (but before they are probed) by looking at common DT bindings like clocks and interconnects. Automatically adding device links for functional dependencies at the framework level provides the following benefits: - Optimizes device probe order and avoids the useless work of attempting probes of devices that will not probe successfully (because their suppliers aren't present or haven't probed yet). For example, in a commonly available mobile SoC, registering just one consumer device's driver at an initcall level earlier than the supplier device's driver causes 11 failed probe attempts before the consumer device probes successfully. This was with a kernel with all the drivers statically compiled in. This problem gets a lot worse if all the drivers are loaded as modules without direct symbol dependencies. - Supplier devices like clock providers, interconnect providers, etc need to keep the resources they provide active and at a particular state(s) during boot up even if their current set of consumers don't request the resource to be active. This is because the rest of the consumers might not have probed yet and turning off the resource before all the consumers have probed could lead to a hang or undesired user experience. Some frameworks (Eg: regulator) handle this today by turning off "unused" resources at late_initcall_sync and hoping all the devices have probed by then. This is not a valid assumption for systems with loadable modules. Other frameworks (Eg: clock) just don't handle this due to the lack of a clear signal for when they can turn off resources. This leads to downstream hacks to handle cases like this that can easily be solved in the upstream kernel. By linking devices before they are probed, we give suppliers a clear count of the number of dependent consumers. Once all of the consumers are active, the suppliers can turn off the unused resources without making assumptions about the number of consumers. By default we just add device-links to track "driver presence" (probe succeeded) of the supplier device. If any other functionality provided by device-links are needed, it is left to the consumer/supplier devices to change the link when they probe. kbuild test robot reported clang error about missing const Reported-by: kbuild test robot <lkp@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190904211126.47518-4-saravanak@google.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

Merge branch 'next-lockdown' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
"This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.
From the original description:
This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.
The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
to not requiring external patches.
There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:
- Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/
- Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.
The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
permitted.
The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:
lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}
Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.
This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
overriden by kernel configuration.
New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
include/linux/security.h for details.
The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

mm, page_owner, debug_pagealloc: save and dump freeing stack trace
The debug_pagealloc functionality is useful to catch buggy page allocator users that cause e.g. use after free or double free. When page inconsistency is detected, debugging is often simpler by knowing the call stack of process that last allocated and freed the page. When page_owner is also enabled, we record the allocation stack trace, but not freeing. This patch therefore adds recording of freeing process stack trace to page owner info, if both page_owner and debug_pagealloc are configured and enabled. With only page_owner enabled, this info is not useful for the memory leak debugging use case. dump_page() is adjusted to print the info. An example result of calling __free_pages() twice may look like this (note the page last free stack trace): BUG: Bad page state in process bash pfn:13d8f8 page:ffffc31984f63e00 refcount:-1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 flags: 0x1affff800000000() raw: 01affff800000000 dead000000000100 dead000000000122 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ffffffffffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: nonzero _refcount page_owner tracks the page as freed page last allocated via order 0, migratetype Unmovable, gfp_mask 0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL) prep_new_page+0x143/0x150 get_page_from_freelist+0x289/0x380 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x13c/0x2d0 khugepaged+0x6e/0xc10 kthread+0xf9/0x130 ret_from_fork+0x3a/0x50 page last free stack trace: free_pcp_prepare+0x134/0x1e0 free_unref_page+0x18/0x90 khugepaged+0x7b/0xc10 kthread+0xf9/0x130 ret_from_fork+0x3a/0x50 Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 271 Comm: bash Not tainted 5.3.0-rc4-2.g07a1a73-default+ #57 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.12.1-0-ga5cab58-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x85/0xc0 bad_page.cold+0xba/0xbf rmqueue_pcplist.isra.0+0x6c5/0x6d0 rmqueue+0x2d/0x810 get_page_from_freelist+0x191/0x380 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x13c/0x2d0 __get_free_pages+0xd/0x30 __pud_alloc+0x2c/0x110 copy_page_range+0x4f9/0x630 dup_mmap+0x362/0x480 dup_mm+0x68/0x110 copy_process+0x19e1/0x1b40 _do_fork+0x73/0x310 __x64_sys_clone+0x75/0x80 do_syscall_64+0x6e/0x1e0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe RIP: 0033:0x7f10af854a10 ...

powerpc updates for 5.4
- Initial support for running on a system with an Ultravisor, which is software
that runs below the hypervisor and protects guests against some attacks by
the hypervisor.
- Support for building the kernel to run as a "Secure Virtual Machine", ie. as
a guest capable of running on a system with an Ultravisor.
- Some changes to our DMA code on bare metal, to allow devices with medium
sized DMA masks (> 32 && < 59 bits) to use more than 2GB of DMA space.
- Support for firmware assisted crash dumps on bare metal (powernv).
- Two series fixing bugs in and refactoring our PCI EEH code.
- A large series refactoring our exception entry code to use gas macros, both
to make it more readable and also enable some future optimisations.
As well as many cleanups and other minor features & fixups.

It's a somewhat calmer cycle for docs this time, as the churn of the mass
RST conversion is happily mostly behind us.
- A new document on reproducible builds.
- We finally got around to zapping the documentation for hardware support
that was removed in 2004; one doesn't want to rush these things.
- The usual assortment of fixes, typo corrections, etc.
You'll still find a handful of annoying conflicts against other trees,
mostly tied to the last RST conversions; resolutions are straightforward
and the linux-next ones are good.

powerpc/64s/radix: introduce options to disable use of the tlbie instruction
Introduce two options to control the use of the tlbie instruction. A boot time option which completely disables the kernel using the instruction, this is currently incompatible with HASH MMU, KVM, and coherent accelerators. And a debugfs option can be switched at runtime and avoids using tlbie for invalidating CPU TLBs for normal process and kernel address mappings. Coherent accelerators are still managed with tlbie, as will KVM partition scope translations. Cross-CPU TLB flushing is implemented with IPIs and tlbiel. This is a basic implementation which does not attempt to make any optimisation beyond the tlbie implementation. This is useful for performance testing among other things. For example in certain situations on large systems, using IPIs may be faster than tlbie as they can be directed rather than broadcast. Later we may also take advantage of the IPIs to do more interesting things such as trim the mm cpumask more aggressively.

security: Add a static lockdown policy LSM

x86/CPU/AMD: Clear RDRAND CPUID bit on AMD family 15h/16h
There have been reports of RDRAND issues after resuming from suspend on some AMD family 15h and family 16h systems. This issue stems from a BIOS not performing the proper steps during resume to ensure RDRAND continues to function properly. RDRAND support is indicated by CPUID Fn00000001_ECX[30]. This bit can be reset by clearing MSR C001_1004[62]. Any software that checks for RDRAND support using CPUID, including the kernel, will believe that RDRAND is not supported. Update the CPU initialization to clear the RDRAND CPUID bit for any family 15h and 16h processor that supports RDRAND. If it is known that the family 15h or family 16h system does not have an RDRAND resume issue or that the system will not be placed in suspend, the "rdrand=force" kernel parameter can be used to stop the clearing of the RDRAND CPUID bit. Additionally, update the suspend and resume path to save and restore the MSR C001_1004 value to ensure that the RDRAND CPUID setting remains in place after resuming from suspend. Note, that clearing the RDRAND CPUID bit does not prevent a processor that normally supports the RDRAND instruction from executing it. So any code that determined the support based on family and model won't #UD.

x86: Add "nopv" parameter to disable PV extensions
In virtualization environment, PV extensions (drivers, interrupts, timers, etc) are enabled in the majority of use cases which is the best option. However, in some cases (kexec not fully working, benchmarking) we want to disable PV extensions. We have "xen_nopv" for that purpose but only for XEN. For a consistent admin experience a common command line parameter "nopv" set across all PV guest implementations is a better choice. There are guest types which just won't work without PV extensions, like Xen PV, Xen PVH and jailhouse. add a "ignore_nopv" member to struct hypervisor_x86 set to true for those guest types and call the detect functions only if nopv is false or ignore_nopv is true.

xen: remove tmem driver
The Xen tmem (transcendent memory) driver can be removed, as the related Xen hypervisor feature never made it past the "experimental" state and will be removed in future Xen versions (>= 4.13). The xen-selfballoon driver depends on tmem, so it can be removed, too.

powerpc updates for 5.3
Notable changes:
- Removal of the NPU DMA code, used by the out-of-tree Nvidia driver, as well
as some other functions only used by drivers that haven't (yet?) made it
upstream.
- A fix for a bug in our handling of hardware watchpoints (eg. perf record -e
mem: ...) which could lead to register corruption and kernel crashes.
- Enable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which allows us to use large pages for vmalloc
when using the Radix MMU.
- A large but incremental rewrite of our exception handling code to use gas
macros rather than multiple levels of nested CPP macros.
And the usual small fixes, cleanups and improvements.

mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options
Patch series "add init_on_alloc/init_on_free boot options", v10. Provide init_on_alloc and init_on_free boot options. These are aimed at preventing possible information leaks and making the control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. Enabling either of the options guarantees that the memory returned by the page allocator and SL[AU]B is initialized with zeroes. SLOB allocator isn't supported at the moment, as its emulation of kmem caches complicates handling of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches correctly. Enabling init_on_free also guarantees that pages and heap objects are initialized right after they're freed, so it won't be possible to access stale data by using a dangling pointer. As suggested by Michal Hocko, right now we don't let the heap users to disable initialization for certain allocations. There's not enough evidence that doing so can speed up real-life cases, and introducing ways to opt-out may result in things going out of control. This patch (of 2): The new options are needed to prevent possible information leaks and make control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. This is expected to be on-by-default on Android and Chrome OS. And it gives the opportunity for anyone else to use it under distros too via the boot args. (The init_on_free feature is regularly requested by folks where memory forensics is included in their threat models.) init_on_alloc=1 makes the kernel initialize newly allocated pages and heap objects with zeroes. Initialization is done at allocation time at the places where checks for __GFP_ZERO are performed. init_on_free=1 makes the kernel initialize freed pages and heap objects with zeroes upon their deletion. This helps to ensure sensitive data doesn't leak via use-after-free accesses. Both init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 guarantee that the allocator returns zeroed memory. The two exceptions are slab caches with constructors and SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag. Those are never zero-initialized to preserve their semantics. Both init_on_alloc and init_on_free default to zero, but those defaults can be overridden with CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON. If either SLUB poisoning or page poisoning is enabled, those options take precedence over init_on_alloc and init_on_free: initialization is only applied to unpoisoned allocations. Slowdown for the new features compared to init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0: hackbench, init_on_free=1: +7.62% sys time (st.err 0.74%) hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +7.75% sys time (st.err 2.14%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +8.38% wall time (st.err 0.39%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +24.42% sys time (st.err 0.52%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.13% wall time (st.err 0.42%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.57% sys time (st.err 0.40%) The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the baseline is within the standard error. The new features are also going to pave the way for hardware memory tagging (e.g. arm64's MTE), which will require both on_alloc and on_free hooks to set the tags for heap objects. With MTE, tagging will have the same cost as memory initialization. Although init_on_free is rather costly, there are paranoid use-cases where in-memory data lifetime is desired to be minimized. There are various arguments for/against the realism of the associated threat models, but given that we'll need the infrastructure for MTE anyway, and there are people who want wipe-on-free behavior no matter what the performance cost, it seems reasonable to include it in this series.

mm, debug_pagealloc: use a page type instead of page_ext flag
When debug_pagealloc is enabled, we currently allocate the page_ext array to mark guard pages with the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_GUARD flag. Now that we have the page_type field in struct page, we can use that instead, as guard pages are neither PageSlab nor mapped to userspace. This reduces memory overhead when debug_pagealloc is enabled and there are no other features requiring the page_ext array.

x86/speculation: Enable Spectre v1 swapgs mitigations
The previous commit added macro calls in the entry code which mitigate the
Spectre v1 swapgs issue if the X86_FEATURE_FENCE_SWAPGS_* features are
enabled. Enable those features where applicable.
The mitigations may be disabled with "nospectre_v1" or "mitigations=off".
There are different features which can affect the risk of attack:
- When FSGSBASE is enabled, unprivileged users are able to place any
value in GS, using the wrgsbase instruction. This means they can
write a GS value which points to any value in kernel space, which can
be useful with the following gadget in an interrupt/exception/NMI
handler:
if (coming from user space)
swapgs
mov %gs:<percpu_offset>, %reg1
// dependent load or store based on the value of %reg
// for example: mov %(reg1), %reg2
If an interrupt is coming from user space, and the entry code
speculatively skips the swapgs (due to user branch mistraining), it
may speculatively execute the GS-based load and a subsequent dependent
load or store, exposing the kernel data to an L1 side channel leak.
Note that, on Intel, a similar attack exists in the above gadget when
coming from kernel space, if the swapgs gets speculatively executed to
switch back to the user GS. On AMD, this variant isn't possible
because swapgs is serializing with respect to future GS-based
accesses.
NOTE: The FSGSBASE patch set hasn't been merged yet, so the above case
doesn't exist quite yet.
- When FSGSBASE is disabled, the issue is mitigated somewhat because
unprivileged users must use prctl(ARCH_SET_GS) to set GS, which
restricts GS values to user space addresses only. That means the
gadget would need an additional step, since the target kernel address
needs to be read from user space first. Something like:
if (coming from user space)
swapgs
mov %gs:<percpu_offset>, %reg1
mov (%reg1), %reg2
// dependent load or store based on the value of %reg2
// for example: mov %(reg2), %reg3
It's difficult to audit for this gadget in all the handlers, so while
there are no known instances of it, it's entirely possible that it
exists somewhere (or could be introduced in the future). Without
tooling to analyze all such code paths, consider it vulnerable.
Effects of SMAP on the !FSGSBASE case:
- If SMAP is enabled, and the CPU reports RDCL_NO (i.e., not
susceptible to Meltdown), the kernel is prevented from speculatively
reading user space memory, even L1 cached values. This effectively
disables the !FSGSBASE attack vector.
- If SMAP is enabled, but the CPU *is* susceptible to Meltdown, SMAP
still prevents the kernel from speculatively reading user space
memory. But it does *not* prevent the kernel from reading the
user value from L1, if it has already been cached. This is probably
only a small hurdle for an attacker to overcome.
Thanks to Dave Hansen for contributing the speculative_smap() function.
Thanks to Andrew Cooper for providing the inside scoop on whether swapgs
is serializing on AMD.

x86/vsyscall: Add a new vsyscall=xonly mode
With vsyscall emulation on, a readable vsyscall page is still exposed that contains syscall instructions that validly implement the vsyscalls. This is required because certain dynamic binary instrumentation tools attempt to read the call targets of call instructions in the instrumented code. If the instrumented code uses vsyscalls, then the vsyscall page needs to contain readable code. Unfortunately, leaving readable memory at a deterministic address can be used to help various ASLR bypasses, so some hardening value can be gained by disallowing vsyscall reads. Given how rarely the vsyscall page needs to be readable, add a mechanism to make the vsyscall page be execute only.

rcu: Enable elimination of Tree-RCU softirq processing
Some workloads need to change kthread priority for RCU core processing without affecting other softirq work. This commit therefore introduces the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter, which moves the RCU core work from softirq to a per-CPU SCHED_OTHER kthread named rcuc. Use of SCHED_OTHER approach avoids the scalability problems that appeared with the earlier attempt to move RCU core processing to from softirq to kthreads. That said, kernels built with RCU_BOOST=y will run the rcuc kthreads at the RCU-boosting priority. Note that rcutree.use_softirq=0 must be specified to move RCU core processing to the rcuc kthreads: rcutree.use_softirq=1 is the default.

panic: add an option to replay all the printk message in buffer
Currently on panic, kernel will lower the loglevel and print out pending printk msg only with console_flush_on_panic(). Add an option for users to configure the "panic_print" to replay all dmesg in buffer, some of which they may have never seen due to the loglevel setting, which will help panic debugging .

ipc: allow boot time extension of IPCMNI from 32k to 16M
The maximum number of unique System V IPC identifiers was limited to 32k. That limit should be big enough for most use cases. However, there are some users out there requesting for more, especially those that are migrating from Solaris which uses 24 bits for unique identifiers. To satisfy the need of those users, a new boot time kernel option "ipcmni_extend" is added to extend the IPCMNI value to 16M. This is a 512X increase which should be big enough for users out there that need a large number of unique IPC identifier. The use of this new option will change the pattern of the IPC identifiers returned by functions like shmget(2). An application that depends on such pattern may not work properly. So it should only be used if the users really need more than 32k of unique IPC numbers. This new option does have the side effect of reducing the maximum number of unique sequence numbers from 64k down to 128. So it is a trade-off. The computation of a new IPC id is not done in the performance critical path. So a little bit of additional overhead shouldn't have any real performance impact.

mm: shuffle initial free memory to improve memory-side-cache utilization
Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit

Pull x86 MDS mitigations from Thomas Gleixner:
"Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) is a hardware vulnerability
which allows unprivileged speculative access to data which is
available in various CPU internal buffers. This new set of misfeatures
has the following CVEs assigned:
CVE-2018-12126 MSBDS Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12130 MFBDS Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12127 MLPDS Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling
CVE-2019-11091 MDSUM Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory
MDS attacks target microarchitectural buffers which speculatively
forward data under certain conditions. Disclosure gadgets can expose
this data via cache side channels.
Contrary to other speculation based vulnerabilities the MDS
vulnerability does not allow the attacker to control the memory target
address. As a consequence the attacks are purely sampling based, but
as demonstrated with the TLBleed attack samples can be postprocessed
successfully.
The mitigation is to flush the microarchitectural buffers on return to
user space and before entering a VM. It's bolted on the VERW
instruction and requires a microcode update. As some of the attacks
exploit data structures shared between hyperthreads, full protection
requires to disable hyperthreading. The kernel does not do that by
default to avoid breaking unattended updates.
The mitigation set comes with documentation for administrators and a
deeper technical view"

powerpc updates for 5.2
Highlights:
- Support for Kernel Userspace Access/Execution Prevention (like
SMAP/SMEP/PAN/PXN) on some 64-bit and 32-bit CPUs. This prevents the kernel
from accidentally accessing userspace outside copy_to/from_user(), or
ever executing userspace.
- KASAN support on 32-bit.
- Rework of where we map the kernel, vmalloc, etc. on 64-bit hash to use the
same address ranges we use with the Radix MMU.
- A rewrite into C of large parts of our idle handling code for 64-bit Book3S
(ie. power8 & power9).
- A fast path entry for syscalls on 32-bit CPUs, for a 12-17% speedup in the
null_syscall benchmark.
- On 64-bit bare metal we have support for recovering from errors with the time
base (our clocksource), however if that fails currently we hang in __delay()
and never crash. We now have support for detecting that case and short
circuiting __delay() so we at least panic() and reboot.
- Add support for optionally enabling the DAWR on Power9, which had to be
disabled by default due to a hardware erratum. This has the effect of
enabling hardware breakpoints for GDB, the downside is a badly behaved
program could crash the machine by pointing the DAWR at cache inhibited
memory. This is opt-in obviously.
- xmon, our crash handler, gets support for a read only mode where operations
that could change memory or otherwise disturb the system are disabled.
Plus many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

x86/xen: Add "xen_timer_slop" command line option
Add a new command-line option "xen_timer_slop=<INT>" that sets the minimum delta of virtual Xen timers. This commit does not change the default timer slop value for virtual Xen timers. Lowering the timer slop value should improve the accuracy of virtual timers (e.g., better process dispatch latency), but it will likely increase the number of virtual timer interrupts (relative to the original slop setting). The original timer slop value has not changed since the introduction of the Xen-aware Linux kernel code. This commit provides users an opportunity to tune timer performance given the refinements to hardware and the Xen event channel processing. It also mirrors a feature in the Xen hypervisor - the "timer_slop" Xen command line option.

x86/kdump: Fall back to reserve high crashkernel memory
crashkernel=xM tries to reserve memory for the crash kernel under 4G, which is enough, usually. But this could fail sometimes, for example when one tries to reserve a big chunk like 2G, for example. So let the crashkernel=xM just fall back to use high memory in case it fails to find a suitable low range. Do not set the ,high as default because it allocates extra low memory for DMA buffers and swiotlb, and this is not always necessary for all machines. Typically, crashkernel=128M usually works with low reservation under 4G, so keep <4G as default.

powerpc: Add a framework for Kernel Userspace Access Protection
This patch implements a framework for Kernel Userspace Access Protection. Then subarches will have the possibility to provide their own implementation by providing setup_kuap() and allow/prevent_user_access(). Some platforms will need to know the area accessed and whether it is accessed from read, write or both. Therefore source, destination and size and handed over to the two functions. mpe: Rename to allow/prevent rather than unlock/lock, and add read/write wrappers. Drop the 32-bit code for now until we have an implementation for it. Add kuap to pt_regs for 64-bit as well as 32-bit. Don't split strings, use pr_crit_ratelimited().

cpu/speculation: Add 'mitigations=' cmdline option
Keeping track of the number of mitigations for all the CPU speculation bugs has become overwhelming for many users. It's getting more and more complicated to decide which mitigations are needed for a given architecture. Complicating matters is the fact that each arch tends to have its own custom way to mitigate the same vulnerability. Most users fall into a few basic categories: a) they want all mitigations off; b) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT enabled even if it's vulnerable; or c) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT disabled if vulnerable. Define a set of curated, arch-independent options, each of which is an aggregation of existing options: - mitigations=off: Disable all mitigations. - mitigations=auto: [default] Enable all the default mitigations, but leave SMT enabled, even if it's vulnerable. - mitigations=auto,nosmt: Enable all the default mitigations, disabling SMT if needed by a mitigation. Currently, these options are placeholders which don't actually do anything. They will be fleshed out in upcoming patches.

rcu: Allow rcu_nocbs= to specify all CPUs
Currently, the rcu_nocbs= kernel boot parameter requires that a specific list of CPUs be specified, and has no way to say "all of them". As noted by user RavFX in a comment to Phoronix topic 1002538, this is an inconvenient side effect of the removal of the RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL Kconfig option. This commit therefore enables the rcu_nocbs= kernel boot parameter to be given the string "all", as in "rcu_nocbs=all" to specify that all CPUs on the system are to have their RCU callbacks offloaded. Another approach would be to make cpulist_parse() check for "all", but there are uses of cpulist_parse() that do other checking, which could conflict with an "all". This commit therefore focuses on the specific use of cpulist_parse() in rcu_nocb_setup(). Just a note to other people who would like changes to Linux-kernel RCU: If you send your requests to me directly, they might get fixed somewhat faster. RavFX's comment was posted on January 22, 2018 and I first saw it on March 5, 2019. And the only reason that I found it -at- -all- was that I was looking for projects using RCU, and my search engine showed me that Phoronix comment quite by accident. Your choice, though! ;-) Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com> |

x86/speculation/mds: Add mitigation control for MDS
Now that the mitigations are in place, add a command line parameter to control the mitigation, a mitigation selector function and a SMT update mechanism. This is the minimal straight forward initial implementation which just provides an always on/off mode. The command line parameter is: mds=[full|off] This is consistent with the existing mitigations for other speculative hardware vulnerabilities. The idle invocation is dynamically updated according to the SMT state of the system similar to the dynamic update of the STIBP mitigation. The idle mitigation is limited to CPUs which are only affected by MSBDS and not any other variant, because the other variants cannot be mitigated on SMT enabled systems.

usb: core: add option of only authorizing internal devices
On Chrome OS we want to use USBguard to potentially limit access to USB devices based on policy. We however to do not want to wait for userspace to come up before initializing fixed USB devices to not regress our boot times. This patch adds option to instruct the kernel to only authorize devices connected to the internal ports. Previously we could either authorize all or none (or, by default, we'd only authorize wired devices). The behavior is controlled via usbcore.authorized_default command line option.

The netfilter conflicts were rather simple overlapping changes. However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex. On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory leaks. Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding the rtnl-ness support. What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back to pure RCU. I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to implement the race fix slightly differently. Signed-off-by: David S.

async: Add cmdline option to specify drivers to be async probed
Asynchronous driver probing can help much on kernel fastboot, and this option can provide a flexible way to optimize and quickly verify async driver probe. Also it will help in below cases: * Some driver actually covers several families of HWs, some of which could use async probing while others don't. So we can't simply turn on the PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS flag in driver, but use this cmdline option, like igb driver async patch discussed at https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg545986.html * For SOC (System on Chip) with multiple spi or i2c controllers, most of the slave spi/i2c devices will be assigned with fixed controller number, while async probing may make those controllers get different index for each boot, which prevents those controller drivers to be async probed. For platforms not using these spi/i2c slave devices, they can use this cmdline option to benefit from the async probing.

efi/x86: Convert x86 EFI earlyprintk into generic earlycon implementation
Move the x86 EFI earlyprintk implementation to a shared location under drivers/firmware and tweak it slightly so we can expose it as an earlycon implementation (which is generic) rather than earlyprintk (which is only implemented for a few architectures) This also involves switching to write-combine mappings by default (which is required on ARM since device mappings lack memory semantics, and so memcpy/memset may not be used on them), and adding support for shared memory framebuffers on cache coherent non-x86 systems (which do not tolerate mismatched attributes). Note that 32-bit ARM does not populate its struct screen_info early enough for earlycon=efifb to work, so it is disabled there.

IOMMU Updates for Linux v4.21
Including (in no particular order): - Page table code for AMD IOMMU now supports large pages where smaller page-sizes were mapped before. VFIO had to work around that in the past and I included a patch to remove it (acked by Alex Williamson) - Patches to unmodularize a couple of IOMMU drivers that would never work as modules anyway. - Work to unify the the iommu-related pointers in 'struct device' into one pointer. This work is not finished yet, but will probably be in the next cycle. - NUMA aware allocation in iommu-dma code - Support for r8a774a1 and r8a774c0 in the Renesas IOMMU driver - Scalable mode support for the Intel VT-d driver - PM runtime improvements for the ARM-SMMU driver - Support for the QCOM-SMMUv2 IOMMU hardware from Qualcom - Various smaller fixes and improvements -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJcKkEoAAoJECvwRC2XARrjCCoQAJxsgaAF5Z0s7z8j2A9SkaGp SIMnUAI5mDOdyhTOAI+eehpRzg5UVYt/JjFYnHz8HWqbSc8YOvDvHafmhMFIwYvO hq5knbs6ns2jJNFO+M4dioDq+3THdqkGIF5xoHdGTP7cn9+XyQ8lAoHo0RuL122U PJGqX7Cp4XnFP4HMb3uQYhVeBV7mU+XqAdB+4aDnQkzI5LkQCRr74GcqOm+Rlnyc cmQWc2arUMjgc1TJIrex8dx9dT6lq8kOmhyEg/IjHeGaZyJ3HqA+30XDDLEExN0G MeVawuxJz40HgXlkXr+iZTQtIFYkXdKvJH6rptMbOfbDeDz+YZ01TbtAMMH9o4jX yxjjMjdcWTsWYQ/MHHdsoMP34cajCi/EYPMNksbycw+E3Y+X/bSReCoWC0HUK8/+ Z4TpZ9mZVygtJR+QNZ+pE9oiJpb4sroM10zTnbMoVHNnvfsO01FYk7FMPkolSKLw zB4MDswQYgchoFR9Z4ZB4PycYTzeafLKYgDPDoD1vIJgDavuidwvDWDRTDc+aMWM siIIewq19To9jDJkVjX4dsT/p99KVKgAR/Ps6jjWkAroha7g6GcmlYZHIJnyop04 jiaSXUsk8aRucP/CRz5xdMmaGoN7BsNmpUjcrquc6Povk/6gvXvpY04oCs1+gNMX ipL9E3GTFCVBubRFrksv =DT9A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'iommu-updates-v4.21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel: - Page table code for AMD IOMMU now supports large pages where smaller page-sizes were mapped before.

It can be useful to inhibit all cgroup1 hierarchies especially during transition and for debugging. cgroup_no_v1 can block hierarchies with controllers which leaves out the named hierarchies.

powerpc updates for 4.21
Notable changes:
- Mitigations for Spectre v2 on some Freescale (NXP) CPUs.
- A large series adding support for pass-through of Nvidia V100 GPUs to guests
on Power9.
- Another large series to enable hardware assistance for TLB table walk on
MPC8xx CPUs.
- Some preparatory changes to our DMA code, to make way for further cleanups
from Christoph.
- Several fixes for our Transactional Memory handling discovered by fuzzing the
signal return path.
- Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file like other
architectures.
- A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a WARN_ON_ONCE,
user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a ratelimited and
appropriately scary warning.
- A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more similar to
other arches and also more compact and informative.
- Freescale updates from Scott:
"Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from dts
files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt errors, and
some minor cleanup."
And many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

x86/speculation/l1tf: Drop the swap storage limit restriction when l1tf=off
Swap storage is restricted to max_swapfile_size (~16TB on x86_64) whenever
the system is deemed affected by L1TF vulnerability. Even though the limit
is quite high for most deployments it seems to be too restrictive for
deployments which are willing to live with the mitigation disabled.
We have a customer to deploy 8x 6,4TB PCIe/NVMe SSD swap devices which is
clearly out of the limit.
Drop the swap restriction when l1tf=off is specified. It also doesn't make
much sense to warn about too much memory for the l1tf mitigation when it is
forcefully disabled by the administrator.

iommu/vt-d: Enumerate the scalable mode capability
The Intel vt-d spec rev3.0 introduces a new translation mode called scalable mode, which enables PASID-granular translations for first level, second level, nested and pass-through modes. At the same time, the previous Extended Context (ECS) mode is deprecated (no production ever implements ECS). This patch adds enumeration for Scalable Mode and removes the deprecated ECS enumeration. It provides a boot time option to disable scalable mode even hardware claims to support it.

rcutorture: Remove cbflood facility
Now that the forward-progress code does a full-bore continuous callback flood lasting multiple seconds, there is little point in also posting a mere 60,000 callbacks every second or so. This commit therefore removes the old cbflood testing. Over time, it may be desirable to concurrently do full-bore continuous callback floods on all CPUs simultaneously, but one dragon at a time.

Pull STIBP fallout fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The performance destruction department finally got it's act together
and came up with a cure for the STIPB regression:
- Provide a command line option to control the spectre v2 user space
mitigations. Default is either seccomp or prctl (if seccomp is
disabled in Kconfig). prctl allows mitigation opt-in, seccomp
enables the migitation for sandboxed processes.
- Rework the code to handle the conditional STIBP/IBPB control and
remove the now unused ptrace_may_access_sched() optimization
attempt
- Disable STIBP automatically when SMT is disabled
- Optimize the switch_to() logic to avoid MSR writes and invocations
of __switch_to_xtra().
- Make the asynchronous speculation TIF updates synchronous to
prevent stale mitigation state.
As a general cleanup this also makes retpoline directly depend on

psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels
Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others. With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set from the commandline, this is a challenge. Do the following things to make it easier: 1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled unless a user requests it at boot-time. To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=. 2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs when the feature is disabled. In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says: : The following is a comparision using CONFIG_PSI=n as a baseline against : your patch and a vanilla kernel : : 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 : kconfigdisable-v1r1 vanilla psidisable-v1r1 : Amean 1 1.3100 ( 0.00%) 1.3923 ( -6.28%) 1.3427 ( -2.49%) : Amean 3 3.8860 ( 0.00%) 4.1230 * -6.10%* 3.8860 ( -0.00%) : Amean 5 6.8847 ( 0.00%) 8.0390 * -16.77%* 6.7727 ( 1.63%) : Amean 7 9.9310 ( 0.00%) 10.8367 * -9.12%* 9.9910 ( -0.60%) : Amean 12 16.6577 ( 0.00%) 18.2363 * -9.48%* 17.1083 ( -2.71%) : Amean 18 26.5133 ( 0.00%) 27.8833 * -5.17%* 25.7663 ( 2.82%) : Amean 24 34.3003 ( 0.00%) 34.6830 ( -1.12%) 32.0450 ( 6.58%) : Amean 30 40.0063 ( 0.00%) 40.5800 ( -1.43%) 41.5087 ( -3.76%) : Amean 32 40.1407 ( 0.00%) 41.2273 ( -2.71%) 39.9417 ( 0.50%) : : It's showing that the vanilla kernel takes a hit (as the bisection : indicated it would) and that disabling PSI by default is reasonably : close in terms of performance for this particular workload on this : particular machine so; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181127165329.GA29728@cmpxchg.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Tested-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Reported-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

x86/speculation: Add seccomp Spectre v2 user space protection mode
If 'prctl' mode of user space protection from spectre v2 is selected
on the kernel command-line, STIBP and IBPB are applied on tasks which
restrict their indirect branch speculation via prctl.
SECCOMP enables the SSBD mitigation for sandboxed tasks already, so it
makes sense to prevent spectre v2 user space to user space attacks as
well.
The Intel mitigation guide documents how STIPB works:
Setting bit 1 (STIBP) of the IA32_SPEC_CTRL MSR on a logical processor
prevents the predicted targets of indirect branches on any logical
processor of that core from being controlled by software that executes
(or executed previously) on another logical processor of the same core.
Ergo setting STIBP protects the task itself from being attacked from a task
running on a different hyper-thread and protects the tasks running on
different hyper-threads from being attacked.
While the document suggests that the branch predictors are shielded between
the logical processors, the observed performance regressions suggest that
STIBP simply disables the branch predictor more or less completely. Of
course the document wording is vague, but the fact that there is also no
requirement for issuing IBPB when STIBP is used points clearly in that
direction. The kernel still issues IBPB even when STIBP is used until Intel
clarifies the whole mechanism.
IBPB is issued when the task switches out, so malicious sandbox code cannot
mistrain the branch predictor for the next user space task on the same
logical processor.

x86/speculation: Add command line control for indirect branch speculation
Add command line control for user space indirect branch speculation
mitigations. The new option is: spectre_v2_user=
The initial options are:
- on: Unconditionally enabled
- off: Unconditionally disabled
-auto: Kernel selects mitigation (default off for now)
When the spectre_v2= command line argument is either 'on' or 'off' this
implies that the application to application control follows that state even
if a contradicting spectre_v2_user= argument is supplied.

watchdog/core: Add watchdog_thresh command line parameter
The hard and soft lockup detector threshold has a default value of 10 seconds which can only be changed via sysctl. During early boot lockup detection can trigger when noisy debugging emits a large amount of messages to the console, but there is no way to set a larger threshold on the kernel command line. The detector can only be completely disabled. Add a new watchdog_thresh= command line parameter to allow boot time control over the threshold. It works in the same way as the sysctl and affects both the soft and the hard lockup detectors.

mm: provide kernel parameter to allow disabling page init poisoning
Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5. The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize each node worth of persistent memory independently. As a result we reduce page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40 seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all 4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread evenly over 4 nodes. This patch (of 3): On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN value. I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with over 12TB of RAM. In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds. However in doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system. In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.

powerpc updates for 4.20
Notable changes:
- A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of fairly
complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.
- Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for each
process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27% speedup for our
context switch benchmark on Power9.
- Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print more debug
information when they occur, and try to continue running by flushing the SLB
and reloading, rather than treating them as fatal.
- Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).
- Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on 64-bit
Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system memory, otherwise the
percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.
- Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task canary.
- Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.
- Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are presented
to us as a single SMT8 core.
- A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE flags.
- Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface, allowing
guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).
- Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we need to use
a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().
Many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.

IOMMU Updates for Linux v4.20
These updates bring:
- Debugfs support for the Intel VT-d driver. When enabled, it
now also exposes some of its internal data structures to
user-space for debugging purposes.
- ARM-SMMU driver now uses the generic deferred flushing
and fast-path iova allocation code. This is expected to be a
major performance improvement, as this allocation path scales
a lot better.
- Support for r8a7744 in the Renesas iommu driver
- Couple of minor fixes and improvements all over the place

Merge branch 'for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull v4.20 RCU changes from Paul E. McKenney:
- Documentation updates, including some good-eye catches from
Joel Fernandes.
- SRCU updates, most notably changes enabling call_srcu() to be
invoked very early in the boot sequence.
- Torture-test updates, including some preliminary work towards
making rcutorture better able to find problems that result in
insufficient grace-period forward progress.
- Consolidate the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors into
a single flavor similar to RCU-sched in !PREEMPT kernels and
into a single flavor similar to RCU-preempt (but also waiting
on preempt-disabled sequences of code) in PREEMPT kernels. This
branch also includes a refactoring of rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}()
from Byungchul Park.
- Now that there is only one RCU flavor in any given running kernel,
the many "rsp" pointers are no longer required, and this cleanup
series removes them.
- This branch carries out additional cleanups made possible by
the RCU flavor consolidation, including inlining how-trivial
functions, updating comments and definitions, and removing
now-unneeded rcutorture scenarios.
- Initial changes to RCU to better promote forward progress of
grace periods, including fixing a bug found by Marius Hillenbrand
and David Woodhouse, with the fix suggested by Peter Zijlstra.
- Now that there is only one flavor of RCU in any running kernel,
there is also only on rcu_data structure per CPU. This means
that the rcu_dynticks structure can be merged into the rcu_data
structure, a task taken on by this branch. This branch also
contains a -rt-related fix from Mike Galbraith.

perf/x86/intel: Add a separate Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler
Implements counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and newer). This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding unnecessary MSR writes and make it more accurate. The Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler is substantially different than the older PMI handler. Differences to the old handler: - It relies on counter freezing, which eliminates several MSR writes from the PMI handler and lowers the overhead significantly. It makes the PMI handler more accurate, as all counters get frozen atomically as soon as any counter overflows. So there is much less counting of the PMI handler itself. With the freezing we don't need to disable or enable counters or PEBS. Only BTS which does not support auto-freezing still needs to be explicitly managed. - The PMU acking is done at the end, not the beginning. This makes it possible to avoid manual enabling/disabling of the PMU, instead we just rely on the freezing/acking. - The APIC is acked before reenabling the PMU, which avoids problems with LBRs occasionally not getting unfreezed on Skylake. - Looping is only needed to workaround a corner case which several PMIs are very close to each other. For common cases, the counters are freezed during PMI handler. It doesn't need to do re-check. This patch: - Adds code to enable v4 counter freezing - Fork <=v3 and >=v4 PMI handlers into separate functions. - Add kernel parameter to disable counter freezing. It took some time to debug counter freezing, so in case there are new problems we added an option to turn it off. Would not expect this to be used until there are new bugs. - Only for big core. The patch for small core will be posted later separately.

iommu: Add "iommu.strict" command line option
Add a generic command line option to enable lazy unmapping via IOVA flush queues, which will initally be suuported by iommu-dma. This echoes the semantics of "intel_iommu=strict" (albeit with the opposite default value), but in the driver-agnostic fashion of "iommu.passthrough".

xen/balloon: add runtime control for scrubbing ballooned out pages
Scrubbing pages on initial balloon down can take some time, especially in nested virtualization case (nested EPT is slow). When HVM/PVH guest is started with memory= significantly lower than maxmem=, all the extra pages will be scrubbed before returning to Xen. But since most of them weren't used at all at that point, Xen needs to populate them first (from populate-on-demand pool). In nested virt case (Xen inside KVM) this slows down the guest boot by 15-30s with just 1.5GB needed to be returned to Xen. Add runtime parameter to enable/disable it, to allow initially disabling scrubbing, then enable it back during boot (for example in initramfs). Such usage relies on assumption that a) most pages ballooned out during initial boot weren't used at all, and b) even if they were, very few secrets are in the guest at that time (before any serious userspace kicks in). Convert CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES to CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES_DEFAULT (also enabled by default), controlling default value for the new runtime switch.

random: make CPU trust a boot parameter
Instead of forcing a distro or other system builder to choose at build time whether the CPU is trusted for CRNG seeding via CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU, provide a boot-time parameter for end users to control the choice.

rcu: Compute jiffies_till_sched_qs from other kernel parameters
The jiffies_till_sched_qs value used to determine how old a grace period must be before RCU enlists the help of the scheduler to force a quiescent state on the holdout CPU. Currently, this defaults to HZ/10 regardless of system size and may be set only at boot time. This can be a problem for very large systems, because if the values of the jiffies_till_first_fqs and jiffies_till_next_fqs kernel parameters are left at their defaults, they are calculated to increase as the number of CPUs actually configured on the system increases. Thus, on a sufficiently large system, RCU would enlist the help of the scheduler before the grace-period kthread had a chance to scan for idle CPUs, which wastes CPU time. This commit therefore allows jiffies_till_sched_qs to be set, if desired, but if left as default, computes is as jiffies_till_first_fqs plus twice jiffies_till_next_fqs, thus allowing three force-quiescent-state scans for idle CPUs. This scales with the number of CPUs, providing sensible default values. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

rcu: Stop testing RCU-bh and RCU-sched
Now that the RCU-bh and RCU-sched update-side functions are simple wrappers around their RCU counterparts, there isn't a whole lot of point in testing them. This commit therefore removes the self-test capability and removes the corresponding kernel-boot parameters. It also updates the various rcutorture .boot files to remove the kernel boot parameters that call for testing RCU-bh and RCU-sched. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

doc: Update removal of RCU-bh/sched update machinery
The RCU-bh update API is now defined in terms of that of RCU-bh and RCU-sched, so this commit updates the documentation accordingly. In addition, although RCU-sched persists in !PREEMPT kernels, in the PREEMPT case its update API is now defined in terms of that of RCU-preempt, so this commit also updates the documentation accordingly. While in the area, this commit removes the documentation for the now-obsolete synchronize_rcu_mult() and clarifies the Tasks RCU documentation. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

mm: clarify CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING and usage
The Kconfig text for CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING doesn't mention that it has to be enabled explicitly. This updates the documentation for that and adds a note about CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING to the "page_poison" command line docs. While here, change description of CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO too, as it's not "random" data, but rather the fixed debugging value that would be used when not zeroing. Additionally removes a stray "bool" in the Kconfig.

powerpc updates for 4.19
Notable changes:
- A fix for a bug in our page table fragment allocator, where a page table page
could be freed and reallocated for something else while still in use, leading
to memory corruption etc. The fix reuses pt_mm in struct page (x86 only) for
a powerpc only refcount.
- Fixes to our pkey support. Several are user-visible changes, but bring us in
to line with x86 behaviour and/or fix outright bugs. Thanks to Florian Weimer
for reporting many of these.
- A series to improve the hvc driver & related OPAL console code, which have
been seen to cause hardlockups at times. The hvc driver changes in particular
have been in linux-next for ~month.
- Increase our MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 128TB when SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y.
- Remove Power8 DD1 and Power9 DD1 support, neither chip should be in use
anywhere other than as a paper weight.
- An optimised memcmp implementation using Power7-or-later VMX instructions
- Support for barrier_nospec on some NXP CPUs.
- Support for flushing the count cache on context switch on some IBM CPUs
(controlled by firmware), as a Spectre v2 mitigation.
- A series to enhance the information we print on unhandled signals to bring it
into line with other arches, including showing the offending VMA and dumping
the instructions around the fault.

Merge branch 'l1tf-final' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

PCI: Add "pci=disable_acs_redir=" parameter for peer-to-peer support
To support peer-to-peer traffic on a segment of the PCI hierarchy, we must disable the ACS redirect bits for select PCI bridges. The bridges must be selected before the devices are discovered by the kernel and the IOMMU groups created. Therefore, add a kernel command line parameter to specify devices which must have their ACS bits disabled. The new parameter takes a list of devices separated by a semicolon. Each device specified will have its ACS redirect bits disabled. This is similar to the existing 'resource_alignment' parameter. The ACS Request P2P Request Redirect, P2P Completion Redirect and P2P Egress Control bits are disabled, which is sufficient to always allow passing P2P traffic uninterrupted. The bits are set after the kernel (optionally) enables the ACS bits itself. It is also done regardless of whether the kernel or platform firmware sets the bits. If the user tries to disable the ACS redirect for a device without the ACS capability, print a warning to dmesg.

PCI: Allow specifying devices using a base bus and path of devfns
When specifying PCI devices on the kernel command line using a bus/device/function address, bus numbers can change when adding or replacing a device, changing motherboard firmware, or applying kernel parameters like "pci=assign-buses". When bus numbers change, it's likely the command line tweak will be applied to the wrong device. Therefore, it is useful to be able to specify devices with a base bus number and the path of devfns needed to get to it, similar to the "device scope" structure in the Intel VT-d spec, Section 8.3.1. Thus, we add an option to specify devices in the following format: [<domain>:]<bus>:<device>.<func>[/<device>.<func>]* The path can be any segment within the PCI hierarchy of any length and determined through the use of 'lspci -t'. When specified this way, it is less likely that a renumbered bus will result in a valid device specification and the tweak won't be applied to the wrong device.

PCI: Make specifying PCI devices in kernel parameters reusable
Separate out the code to match a PCI device with a string (typically originating from a kernel parameter) from the pci_specified_resource_alignment() function into its own helper function. While we are at it, this change fixes the kernel style of the function (fixing a number of long lines and extra parentheses). Additionally, make the analogous change to the kernel parameter documentation: Separate the description of how to specify a PCI device into its own section at the head of the "pci=" parameter. This patch should have no functional alterations.

iommu: Add config option to set passthrough as default
This allows the default behavior to be controlled by a kernel config option instead of changing the commandline for the kernel to include "iommu.passthrough=on" or "iommu=pt" on machines where this is desired. Likewise, for machines where this config option is enabled, it can be disabled at boot time with "iommu.passthrough=off" or "iommu=nopt".

x86/tsc: Redefine notsc to behave as tsc=unstable
Currently, the notsc kernel parameter disables the use of the TSC by sched_clock(). However, this parameter does not prevent the kernel from accessing tsc in other places. The only rationale to boot with notsc is to avoid timing discrepancies on multi-socket systems where TSC are not properly synchronized, and thus exclude TSC from being used for time keeping. But that prevents using TSC as sched_clock() as well, which is not necessary as the core sched_clock() implementation can handle non synchronized TSC based sched clocks just fine. However, there is another method to solve the above problem: booting with tsc=unstable parameter. This parameter allows sched_clock() to use TSC and just excludes it from timekeeping. So there is no real reason to keep notsc, but for compatibility reasons the parameter has to stay. Make it behave like 'tsc=unstable' instead.

vsprintf: Add command line option debug_boot_weak_hash
Currently printing [hashed] pointers requires enough entropy to be available. Early in the boot sequence this may not be the case resulting in a dummy string '(____ptrval____)' being printed. This makes debugging the early boot sequence difficult. We can relax the requirement to use cryptographically secure hashing during debugging. This enables debugging while keeping development/production kernel behaviour the same. If new command line option debug_boot_weak_hash is enabled use cryptographically insecure hashing and hash pointer value immediately.

Merge branch 'for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull RCU updates from Paul E. McKenney: - An optimization and a fix for RCU expedited grace periods, with the fix being from Boqun Feng. - Miscellaneous fixes, including a lockdep-annotation fix from Boqun Feng. - SRCU updates. - Updates to rcutorture and associated scripting. - Introduce grace-period sequence numbers to the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors, replacing the old ->gpnum and ->completed pair of fields. This change allows lockless code to obtain the complete grace-period state with a single READ_ONCE(), which is needed to maintain tolerable lock contention during the upcoming consolidation of the three RCU flavors. Note that grace-period sequence numbers are already used by rcu_barrier(), expedited RCU grace periods, and SRCU, and are thus already heavily used and well-tested. Joel Fernandes contributed a number of excellent fixes and improvements. - Clean up some grace-period-reporting loose ends, including improving the handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs and fixing some false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations. (Strictly speaking, the WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations were quite correct, but their invariants were (harmlessly) violated by the earlier sloppy handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs.) In addition, improve grace-period forward-progress guarantees so as to allow removal of fail-safe checks that required otherwise needless lock acquisitions. Finally, add more diagnostics to help debug the upcoming consolidation of the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors. - Additional miscellaneous fixes, including those contributed by Byungchul Park, Mauro Carvalho Chehab, Joe Perches, Joel Fernandes, Steven Rostedt, Andrea Parri, and Neil Brown. - Additional torture-test changes, including several contributed by Arnd Bergmann and Joel Fernandes.

x86/bugs, kvm: Introduce boot-time control of L1TF mitigations
Introduce the 'l1tf=' kernel command line option to allow for boot-time
switching of mitigation that is used on processors affected by L1TF.
The possible values are:
full
Provides all available mitigations for the L1TF vulnerability. Disables
SMT and enables all mitigations in the hypervisors. SMT control via
/sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible after boot.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in
a potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
full,force
Same as 'full', but disables SMT control. Implies the 'nosmt=force'
command line option. sysfs control of SMT and the hypervisor flush
control is disabled.
flush
Leaves SMT enabled and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in a
potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
flush,nosmt
Disables SMT and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation. SMT
control via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible
after boot. If SMT is reenabled or flushing disabled at runtime
hypervisors will issue a warning.
flush,nowarn
Same as 'flush', but hypervisors will not warn when
a VM is started in a potentially insecure configuration.
off
Disables hypervisor mitigations and doesn't emit any warnings.
Default is 'flush'.
Let KVM adhere to these semantics, which means:
- 'lt1f=full,force' : Performe L1D flushes. No runtime control
possible.
- 'l1tf=full'
- 'l1tf-flush'
- 'l1tf=flush,nosmt' : Perform L1D flushes and warn on VM start if
SMT has been runtime enabled or L1D flushing
has been run-time enabled
- 'l1tf=flush,nowarn' : Perform L1D flushes and no warnings are emitted.
- 'l1tf=off' : L1D flushes are not performed and no warnings
are emitted.
KVM can always override the L1D flushing behavior using its 'vmentry_l1d_flush'
module parameter except when lt1f=full,force is set.
This makes KVM's private 'nosmt' option redundant, and as it is a bit
non-systematic anyway (this is something to control globally, not on
hypervisor level), remove that option.
Add the missing Documentation entry for the l1tf vulnerability sysfs file
while at it.

rcutorture: Change units of onoff_interval to jiffies
Some RCU bugs have been sensitive to the frequency of CPU-hotplug operations, which have been gradually increased over time. But this frequency is now at the one-second lower limit that can be specified using the rcutorture.onoff_interval kernel parameter. This commit therefore changes the units of rcutorture.onoff_interval from seconds to jiffies, and also sets the value specified for this kernel parameter in the TREE03 rcutorture scenario to 200, which is 200 milliseconds for HZ=1000.

driver core: allow stopping deferred probe after init
Deferred probe will currently wait forever on dependent devices to probe, but sometimes a driver will never exist. It's also not always critical for a driver to exist. Platforms can rely on default configuration from the bootloader or reset defaults for things such as pinctrl and power domains. This is often the case with initial platform support until various drivers get enabled. There's at least 2 scenarios where deferred probe can render a platform broken. Both involve using a DT which has more devices and dependencies than the kernel supports. The 1st case is a driver may be disabled in the kernel config. The 2nd case is the kernel version may simply not have the dependent driver. This can happen if using a newer DT (provided by firmware perhaps) with a stable kernel version. Deferred probe issues can be difficult to debug especially if the console has dependencies or userspace fails to boot to a shell. There are also cases like IOMMUs where only built-in drivers are supported, so deferring probe after initcalls is not needed. The IOMMU subsystem implemented its own mechanism to handle this using OF_DECLARE linker sections. This commit adds makes ending deferred probe conditional on initcalls being completed or a debug timeout. Subsystems or drivers may opt-in by calling driver_deferred_probe_check_init_done() instead of unconditionally returning -EPROBE_DEFER. They may use additional information from DT or kernel's config to decide whether to continue to defer probe or not. The timeout mechanism is intended for debug purposes and WARNs loudly. The remaining deferred probe pending list will also be dumped after the timeout. Not that this timeout won't work for the console which needs to be enabled before userspace starts. However, if the console's dependencies are resolved, then the kernel log will be printed (as opposed to no output).

x86/KVM: Warn user if KVM is loaded SMT and L1TF CPU bug being present
If the L1TF CPU bug is present we allow the KVM module to be loaded as the
major of users that use Linux and KVM have trusted guests and do not want a
broken setup.
Cloud vendors are the ones that are uncomfortable with CVE 2018-3620 and as
such they are the ones that should set nosmt to one.
Setting 'nosmt' means that the system administrator also needs to disable
SMT (Hyper-threading) in the BIOS, or via the 'nosmt' command line
parameter, or via the /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control. See commit

usercopy: Allow boot cmdline disabling of hardening
Enabling HARDENED_USERCOPY may cause measurable regressions in networking performance: up to 8% under UDP flood. I ran a small packet UDP flood using pktgen vs. a host b2b connected. On the receiver side the UDP packets are processed by a simple user space process that just reads and drops them: https://github.com/netoptimizer/network-testing/blob/master/src/udp_sink.c Not very useful from a functional PoV, but it helps to pin-point bottlenecks in the networking stack. When running a kernel with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y, I see a 5-8% regression in the receive tput, compared to the same kernel without this option enabled. With CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y, perf shows ~6% of CPU time spent cumulatively in __check_object_size (~4%) and __virt_addr_valid (~2%). The call-chain is: __GI___libc_recvfrom entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe do_syscall_64 __x64_sys_recvfrom __sys_recvfrom inet_recvmsg udp_recvmsg __check_object_size udp_recvmsg() actually calls copy_to_iter() (inlined) and the latters calls check_copy_size() (again, inlined). A generic distro may want to enable HARDENED_USERCOPY in their default kernel config, but at the same time, such distro may want to be able to avoid the performance penalties in with the default configuration and disable the stricter check on a per-boot basis. This change adds a boot parameter that conditionally disables HARDENED_USERCOPY via "hardened_usercopy=off".

Revert "x86/apic: Ignore secondary threads if nosmt=force"
Dave Hansen reported, that it's outright dangerous to keep SMT siblings
disabled completely so they are stuck in the BIOS and wait for SIPI.
The reason is that Machine Check Exceptions are broadcasted to siblings and
the soft disabled sibling has CR4.MCE = 0. If a MCE is delivered to a
logical core with CR4.MCE = 0, it asserts IERR#, which shuts down or
reboots the machine. The MCE chapter in the SDM contains the following
blurb:
Because the logical processors within a physical package are tightly
coupled with respect to shared hardware resources, both logical
processors are notified of machine check errors that occur within a
given physical processor. If machine-check exceptions are enabled when
a fatal error is reported, all the logical processors within a physical
package are dispatched to the machine-check exception handler. If
machine-check exceptions are disabled, the logical processors enter the
shutdown state and assert the IERR# signal. When enabling machine-check
exceptions, the MCE flag in control register CR4 should be set for each
logical processor.
Reverting the commit which ignores siblings at enumeration time solves only
half of the problem. The core cpuhotplug logic needs to be adjusted as
well.
This thoughtful engineered mechanism also turns the boot process on all
Intel HT enabled systems into a MCE lottery. MCE is enabled on the boot CPU
before the secondary CPUs are brought up. Depending on the number of
physical cores the window in which this situation can happen is smaller or
larger. On a HSW-EX it's about 750ms:
MCE is enabled on the boot CPU:
[ 0.244017] mce: CPU supports 22 MCE banks
The corresponding sibling #72 boots:
[ 1.008005] .... node #0, CPUs: #72
That means if an MCE hits on physical core 0 (logical CPUs 0 and 72)
between these two points the machine is going to shutdown. At least it's a
known safe state.
It's obvious that the early boot can be hit by an MCE as well and then runs
into the same situation because MCEs are not yet enabled on the boot CPU.
But after enabling them on the boot CPU, it does not make any sense to
prevent the kernel from recovering.
Adjust the nosmt kernel parameter documentation as well.

cpu/hotplug: Provide knobs to control SMT
Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT. The command line options are: 'nosmt': Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them 'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration via MP table and ACPI/MADT. The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write): 'on': SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined 'off': SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated cannot be onlined 'forceoff': SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control file are rejected. 'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime. The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to 'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime. When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread later on are rejected. When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -> 'on' transition does not automatically online the secondary threads. When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to the control file are rejected. When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file are rejected.

PCI: Add "pci=noats" boot parameter
Adds a "pci=noats" boot parameter. When supplied, all ATS related functions fail immediately and the IOMMU is configured to not use device-IOTLB. Any function that checks for ATS capabilities directly against the devices should also check this flag. Currently, such functions exist only in IOMMU drivers, and they are covered by this patch. The motivation behind this patch is the existence of malicious devices. Lots of research has been done about how to use the IOMMU as protection from such devices. When ATS is supported, any I/O device can access any physical address by faking device-IOTLB entries. Adding the ability to ignore these entries lets sysadmins enhance system security.

x86/speculation: Add prctl for Speculative Store Bypass mitigation
Add prctl based control for Speculative Store Bypass mitigation and make it
the default mitigation for Intel and AMD.
Andi Kleen provided the following rationale (slightly redacted):
There are multiple levels of impact of Speculative Store Bypass:
1) JITed sandbox.
It cannot invoke system calls, but can do PRIME+PROBE and may have call
interfaces to other code
2) Native code process.
No protection inside the process at this level.
3) Kernel.
4) Between processes.
The prctl tries to protect against case (1) doing attacks.
If the untrusted code can do random system calls then control is already
lost in a much worse way. So there needs to be system call protection in
some way (using a JIT not allowing them or seccomp). Or rather if the
process can subvert its environment somehow to do the prctl it can already
execute arbitrary code, which is much worse than SSB.
To put it differently, the point of the prctl is to not allow JITed code
to read data it shouldn't read from its JITed sandbox. If it already has
escaped its sandbox then it can already read everything it wants in its
address space, and do much worse.
The ability to control Speculative Store Bypass allows to enable the
protection selectively without affecting overall system performance.
Based on an initial patch from Tim Chen. Completely rewritten.

x86/bugs: Provide boot parameters for the spec_store_bypass_disable mitigation
Contemporary high performance processors use a common industry-wide optimization known as "Speculative Store Bypass" in which loads from addresses to which a recent store has occurred may (speculatively) see an older value. Intel refers to this feature as "Memory Disambiguation" which is part of their "Smart Memory Access" capability. Memory Disambiguation can expose a cache side-channel attack against such speculatively read values. An attacker can create exploit code that allows them to read memory outside of a sandbox environment (for example, malicious JavaScript in a web page), or to perform more complex attacks against code running within the same privilege level, e.g. via the stack. As a first step to mitigate against such attacks, provide two boot command line control knobs: nospec_store_bypass_disable spec_store_bypass_disable=[off,auto,on] By default affected x86 processors will power on with Speculative Store Bypass enabled. Hence the provided kernel parameters are written from the point of view of whether to enable a mitigation or not. The parameters are as follows: - auto - Kernel detects whether your CPU model contains an implementation of Speculative Store Bypass and picks the most appropriate mitigation. - on - disable Speculative Store Bypass - off - enable Speculative Store Bypass [ tglx: Reordered the checks so that the whole evaluation is not done when the CPU does not support RDS ] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> |

Merge branch 'mm-rst' into docs-next
Mike Rapoport says: These patches convert files in Documentation/vm to ReST format, add an initial index and link it to the top level documentation. There are no contents changes in the documentation, except few spelling fixes. The relatively large diffstat stems from the indentation and paragraph wrapping changes. I've tried to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, but I could miss some places that needed markup and add some markup where it was not necessary.

- the audit entry filter is being removed after deprecating it for
quite a while (years of no one really using it because it turns out
to be not very practical)
- created our own version of "__mutex_owner()" because the locking
folks were upset we were using theirs

them more forgiving

mm, page_alloc: extend kernelcore and movablecore for percent
Both kernelcore= and movablecore= can be used to define the amount of ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE on a system, respectively. This requires the system memory capacity to be known when specifying the command line, however. This introduces the ability to define both kernelcore= and movablecore= as a percentage of total system memory. This is convenient for systems software that wants to define the amount of ZONE_MOVABLE, for example, as a proportion of a system's memory rather than a hardcoded byte value. To define the percentage, the final character of the parameter should be a '%'. mhocko: "why is anyone using these options nowadays?" rientjes: : : Fragmentation of non-__GFP_MOVABLE pages due to low on memory : situations can pollute most pageblocks on the system, as much as 1GB of : slab being fragmented over 128GB of memory, for example. When the : amount of kernel memory is well bounded for certain systems, it is : better to aggressively reclaim from existing MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE : pageblocks rather than eagerly fallback to others. : : We have additional patches that help with this fragmentation if you're : interested, specifically kcompactd compaction of MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE : pageblocks triggered by fallback of non-__GFP_MOVABLE allocations and : draining of pcp lists back to the zone free area to prevent stranding.

arch: remove obsolete architecture ports
This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers. I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users. In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees. The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases. After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline gcc support: - unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc. - openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJawdL2AAoJEGCrR//JCVInuH0P/RJAZh1nTD+TR34ZhJq2TBoo PgygwDU7Z2+tQVU+EZ453Gywz9/NMRFk1RWAZqrLix4ZtyIMvC6A1qfT2yH1Y7Fb Qh6tccQeLe4ezq5u4S/46R/fQXu3Txr92yVwzJJUuPyU0arF9rv5MmI8e6p7L1en yb74kSEaCe+/eMlsEj1Cc1dgthDNXGKIURHkRsILoweysCpesjiTg4qDcL+yTibV FP2wjVbniKESMKS6qL71tiT5sexvLsLwMNcGiHPj94qCIQuI7DLhLdBVsL5Su6gI sbtgv0dsq4auRYAbQdMaH1hFvu6WptsuttIbOMnz2Yegi2z28H8uVXkbk2WVLbqG ZESUwutGh8MzOL2RJ4jyyQq5sfo++CRGlfKjr6ImZRv03dv0pe/W85062cK5cKNs cgDDJjGRorOXW7dyU6jG2gRqODOQBObIv3w5efdq5OgzOWlbI4EC+Y5u1Z0JF/76 pSwtGXA6YhwC+9LLAlnVTHG+yOwuLmAICgoKcTbzTVDKA2YQZG/cYuQfI5S1wD8e X6urPx3Md2GCwLXQ9mzKBzKZUpu/Tuhx0NvwF4qVxy6x1PELjn68zuP7abDHr46r 57/09ooVN+iXXnEGMtQVS/OPvYHSa2NgTSZz6Y86lCRbZmUOOlK31RDNlMvYNA+s 3iIVHovno/JuJnTOE8LY =fQ8z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arch-removal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann: "This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.

Rename the original quirk detection function to "static" as we introduce this new "dynamic" function. Now users can use "usbcore.quirks=" as short term workaround before the next kernel release.

arch: remove blackfin port
The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up. Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant, and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when doing cross-architecture changes.

irqchip/gic-v3: Allow LPIs to be disabled from the command line
For most GICv3 implementations, enabling LPIs is a one way switch. Once they're on, there is no turning back, which completely kills kexec (pending tables will always be live, and we can't tell the secondary kernel where they are). This is really annoying if you plan to use Linux as a bootloader, as it pretty much guarantees that the secondary kernel won't be able to use MSIs, and may even see some memory corruption. Bad. A workaround for this unfortunate situation is to allow the kernel not to enable LPIs, even if the feature is present in the HW. This would allow Linux-as-a-bootloader to leave LPIs alone, and let the secondary kernel to do whatever it wants with them. Let's introduce a boolean "irqchip.gicv3_nolpi" command line option that serves that purpose. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> |

audit: do not panic on invalid boot parameter
If you pass in an invalid audit boot parameter value, e.g. "audit=off", the kernel panics very early in boot before the regular console is initialized. Unless you have earlyprintk enabled, there is no indication of what the problem is on the console. Convert the panic() calls to pr_err(), and leave auditing enabled if an invalid parameter value was passed in. Modify the parameter to also accept "on" or "off" as valid values, and update the documentation accordingly.

x86/boot/e820: Implement a range manipulation operator
Add a more versatile memmap= operator, which -- in addition to all the things that were possible before -- allows you to: - redeclare existing ranges -- before, you were limited to adding ranges; - drop any range -- like a mem= for any location; - use any e820 memory type -- not just some predefined ones. The syntax is: memmap=<size>%<offset>-<oldtype>+<newtype> Size and offset work as usual. The "-<oldtype>" and "+<newtype>" are optional and their existence determine the behavior: The command works on the specified range of memory limited to type <oldtype> (if specified). This memory is then configured to show up as <newtype>. If <newtype> is not specified, the memory is removed from the e820 map. Signed-off-by: Jan H.

ACPI: SPCR: Make SPCR available to x86
SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup an early console. General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86), updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(), and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be more descriptive. On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is not 2 so the table version check must be a warning. On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console and console are enabled. On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by by default. Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing the early console and console separately.

Pull spectre/meltdown updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The next round of updates related to melted spectrum:
- The initial set of spectre V1 mitigations:
- Array index speculation blocker and its usage for syscall,
fdtable and the n180211 driver.
- Speculation barrier and its usage in user access functions
- Make indirect calls in KVM speculation safe
- Blacklisting of known to be broken microcodes so IPBP/IBSR are not
touched.
- The initial IBPB support and its usage in context switch
- The exposure of the new speculation MSRs to KVM guests.
- A fix for a regression in x86/32 related to the cpu entry area
- Proper whitelisting for known to be safe CPUs from the mitigations.
- objtool fixes to deal proper with retpolines and alternatives
- Exclude __init functions from retpolines which speeds up the boot
process.
- Removal of the syscall64 fast path and related cleanups and
simplifications
- Removal of the unpatched paravirt mode which is yet another source
of indirect unproteced calls.
- A new and undisputed version of the module mismatch warning
- A couple of cleanup and correctness fixes all over the place
Yet another step towards full mitigation. There are a few things still
missing like the RBS underflow mitigation for Skylake and other small
details, but that's being worked on.
That said, I'm taking a belated christmas vacation for a week and hope
that everything is magically solved when I'm back on Feb 12th"

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

x86/paravirt: Remove 'noreplace-paravirt' cmdline option
The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the original pv indirect calls in place. That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines. As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel vulnerable to Spectre v2. It was probably a debug option from the early paravirt days. So just remove it.

Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains:
- a PTI bugfix to avoid setting reserved CR3 bits when PCID is
disabled. This seems to cause issues on a virtual machine at least
and is incorrect according to the AMD manual.
- a PTI bugfix which disables the perf BTS facility if PTI is
enabled. The BTS AUX buffer is not globally visible and causes the
CPU to fault when the mapping disappears on switching CR3 to user
space. A full fix which restores BTS on PTI is non trivial and will
be worked on.
- PTI bugfixes for EFI and trusted boot which make sure that the user
space visible page table entries have the NX bit cleared
- removal of dead code in the PTI pagetable setup functions
- add PTI documentation
- add a selftest for vsyscall to verify that the kernel actually
implements what it advertises.
- a sysfs interface to expose vulnerability and mitigation
information so there is a coherent way for users to retrieve the
status.
- the initial spectre_v2 mitigations, aka retpoline:
+ The necessary ASM thunk and compiler support
+ The ASM variants of retpoline and the conversion of affected ASM
code
+ Make LFENCE serializing on AMD so it can be used as speculation
trap
+ The RSB fill after vmexit
- initial objtool support for retpoline
As I said in the status mail this is the most of the set of patches
which should go into 4.15 except two straight forward patches still on
hold:
- the retpoline add on of LFENCE which waits for ACKs
- the RSB fill after context switch
Both should be ready to go early next week and with that we'll have
covered the major holes of spectre_v2 and go back to normality"

x86/PCI: Add "pci=big_root_window" option for AMD 64-bit windows
Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window" is specified. This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory that would conflict with the window. The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to AMD CPUs. The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling it.

printk: add console_msg_format command line option
0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort
of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect
and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the
kernel logs from:
a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg
This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note)
and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly
simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages.
b) serial consoles
This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages
don't contain facility and log level.
This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option,
to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles.
For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog.
The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the
"syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog
format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and
`cat /proc/kmsg' output formats:
- facility and log level
- time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME)
- message
<%u>[time stamp] text\n
NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually
"dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per
Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog
format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format,
thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw".
Per Kevin Hilman:
: Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup,
: but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to
: have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels
: in default boot log.
:
: This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced
: search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic
: Search, Logstash, Kibana).
:
: The other important reason for having this on the command line is that
: for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches),
: it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run
: "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.) So we really want this on the primary
: boot (serial) console.
Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that
feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable
parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]:
`#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern :(err |crit |alert |emerg )'
instead of doing text pattern matching
`#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} |
grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern |
grep -a -v -F -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/kmsg-blacklist`

ACPI: sysfs: Make ACPI GPE mask kernel parameter cover all GPEs
The acpi_mask_gpe= kernel parameter documentation states that the range
of mask is 128 GPEs (0x00 to 0x7F). The acpi_masked_gpes mask is a u64 so
only 64 GPEs (0x00 to 0x3F) can really be masked.
Use a bitmap of size 0xFF instead of a u64 for the GPE mask so 256
GPEs can be masked.
Fixes:

torture: Eliminate torture_runnable and perf_runnable
The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel (as in not compiled as loadable modules). However, the 0444 permissions for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever being put into practice. Given that there have been no complaints about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually makes use of this sysfs capability. The perf_runnable module parameter for rcuperf is in the same situation. This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well as perf_runnable.

ACPI / PM: Make it possible to ignore the system sleep blacklist
The ACPI code supporting system transitions to sleep states uses
an internal blacklist to apply special handling to some machines
reported to behave incorrectly in some ways.
However, some entries of that blacklist cover problematic as well as
non-problematic systems, so give the users of the latter a chance to
ignore the blacklist and run their systems in the default way by
adding acpi_sleep=nobl to the kernel command line.
For example, that allows the users of Dell XPS13 9360 systems not
affected by the issue that caused the blacklist entry for this
machine to be added by commit

Trimmed second batch of KVM changes for Linux 4.15
* GICv4 Support for KVM/ARM
All ARM patches were in next-20171113. I have postponed most x86 fixes
to 4.15-rc2 and UMIP to 4.16, but there are fixes that would be good to
have already in 4.15-rc1:
* re-introduce support for CPUs without virtual NMI (cc stable)
and allow testing of KVM without virtual NMI on available CPUs
* fix long-standing performance issues with assigned devices on AMD
(cc stable)

powerpc updates for 4.15
Non-highlights:
- Five fixes for the >128T address space handling, both to fix bugs in our
implementation and to bring the semantics exactly into line with x86.
Highlights:
- Support for a new OPAL call on bare metal machines which gives us a true NMI
(ie. is not masked by MSR[EE]=0) for debugging etc.
- Support for Power9 DD2 in the CXL driver.
- Improvements to machine check handling so that uncorrectable errors can be
reported into the generic memory_failure() machinery.
- Some fixes and improvements for VPHN, which is used under PowerVM to notify
the Linux partition of topology changes.
- Plumbing to enable TM (transactional memory) without suspend on some Power9
processors (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NO_SUSPEND).
- Support for emulating vector loads form cache-inhibited memory, on some
Power9 revisions.
- Disable the fast-endian switch "syscall" by default (behind a CONFIG), we
believe it has never had any users.
- A major rework of the API drivers use when initiating and waiting for long
running operations performed by OPAL firmware, and changes to the
powernv_flash driver to use the new API.
- Several fixes for the handling of FP/VMX/VSX while processes are using
transactional memory.
- Optimisations of TLB range flushes when using the radix MMU on Power9.
- Improvements to the VAS facility used to access coprocessors on Power9, and
related improvements to the way the NX crypto driver handles requests.
- Implementation of PMEM_API and UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE for 64-bit.

Merge branch 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update for the interrupt core code and the irq chip drivers:
- Add a new bitmap matrix allocator and supporting changes, which is
used to replace the x86 vector allocator which comes with separate
pull request. This allows to replace the convoluted nested loop
allocation function in x86 with a facility which supports the
recently added property of managed interrupts proper and allows to
switch to a best effort vector reservation scheme, which addresses
problems with vector exhaustion.
- A large update to the ARM GIC-V3-ITS driver adding support for
range selectors.
- New interrupt controllers:
- Meson and Meson8 GPIO
- BCM7271 L2
- Socionext EXIU
If you expected that this will stop at some point, I have to
disappoint you. There are new ones posted already. Sigh!
- STM32 interrupt controller support for new platforms.

irqchip/gic: Deal with broken firmware exposing only 4kB of GICv2 CPU interface
There is a lot of broken firmware out there that don't really
expose the information the kernel requires when it comes with dealing
with GICv2:
(1) Firmware that only describes the first 4kB of GICv2
(2) Firmware that describe 128kB of CPU interface, while
the usable portion of the address space is between
60 and 68kB
So far, we only deal with (2). But we have platforms exhibiting
behaviour (1), resulting in two sub-cases:
(a) The GIC is occupying 8kB, as required by the GICv2 architecture
(b) It is actually spread 128kB, and this is likely to be a version
of (2)
This patch tries to work around both (a) and (b) by poking at
the outside of the described memory region, and try to work out
what is actually there. This is of course unsafe, and should
only be enabled if there is no way to otherwise fix the DT provided
by the firmware (we provide a "irqchip.gicv2_force_probe" option
to that effect).
Note that for the time being, we restrict ourselves to GICv2
implementations provided by ARM, since there I have no knowledge
of an alternative implementations. This could be relaxed if such
an implementation comes to light on a broken platform.

powerpc/tm: Add commandline option to disable hardware transactional memory
Currently the kernel relies on firmware to inform it whether or not the CPU supports HTM and as long as the kernel was built with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM=y then it will allow userspace to make use of the facility. There may be situations where it would be advantageous for the kernel to not allow userspace to use HTM, currently the only way to achieve this is to recompile the kernel with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM=n. This patch adds a simple commandline option so that HTM can be disabled at boot time.

s390: introduce CPU alternatives
Implement CPU alternatives, which allows to optionally patch newer instructions at runtime, based on CPU facilities availability. A new kernel boot parameter "noaltinstr" disables patching. Current implementation is derived from x86 alternatives. Although ideal instructions padding (when altinstr is longer then oldinstr) is added at compile time, and no oldinstr nops optimization has to be done at runtime. Also couple of compile time sanity checks are done: 1. oldinstr and altinstr must be <= 254 bytes long, 2. oldinstr and altinstr must not have an odd length. alternative(oldinstr, altinstr, facility); alternative_2(oldinstr, altinstr1, facility1, altinstr2, facility2); Both compile time and runtime padding consists of either 6/4/2 bytes nop or a jump (brcl) + 2 bytes nop filler if padding is longer then 6 bytes. .altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement sections are part of __init_begin : __init_end region and are freed after initialization.

When rcutorture sees the rcutorture.stall_cpu kernel boot parameter, it loops with preemption disabled, which does in fact normally generate an RCU CPU stall warning message.

This commit therefore adds an rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff kernel boot parameter that causes the stalling CPU to disable interrupts. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

drm: handle override and firmware EDID at drm_do_get_edid() level
Handle debugfs override edid and firmware edid at the low level to transparently and completely replace the real edid. Previously, we practically only used the modes from the override EDID, and none of the other data, such as audio parameters. This change also prevents actual EDID reads when the EDID is to be overridden, but retains the DDC probe. This is useful if the reason for preferring override EDID are problems with reading the data, or corruption of the data. Move firmware EDID loading from helper to core, as the functionality moves to lower level as well. This will result in a change of module parameter from drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware to drm.edid_firmware, which arguably makes more sense anyway. Some future work remains related to override and firmware EDID validation. Like before, no validation is done for override EDID. The firmware EDID is validated separately in the loader. Some unification and deduplication would be in order, to validate all of them at the drm_do_get_edid() level, like "real" EDIDs. v2: move firmware loading to core v3: rebase, commit message refresh Cc: Abdiel Janulgue <abdiel.janulgue@linux.intel.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Abdiel Janulgue <abdiel.janulgue@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1e8a710bcac46e5136c1a7b430074893c81f364a.1505203831.git.jani.nikula@intel.com |

mm, page_alloc: rip out ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE
Patch series "cleanup zonelists initialization", v1. This is aimed at cleaning up the zonelists initialization code we have but the primary motivation was bug report [2] which got resolved but the usage of stop_machine is just too ugly to live. Most patches are straightforward but 3 of them need a special consideration. Patch 1 removes zone ordered zonelists completely. I am CCing linux-api because this is a user visible change. As I argue in the patch description I do not think we have a strong usecase for it these days. I have kept sysctl in place and warn into the log if somebody tries to configure zone lists ordering. If somebody has a real usecase for it we can revert this patch but I do not expect anybody will actually notice runtime differences. This patch is not strictly needed for the rest but it made patch 6 easier to implement. Patch 7 removes stop_machine from build_all_zonelists without adding any special synchronization between iterators and updater which I _believe_ is acceptable as explained in the changelog. I hope I am not missing anything. Patch 8 then removes zonelists_mutex which is kind of ugly as well and not really needed AFAICS but a care should be taken when double checking my thinking. This patch (of 9): Supporting zone ordered zonelists costs us just a lot of code while the usefulness is arguable if existent at all. Mel has already made node ordering default on 64b systems. 32b systems are still using ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE because it is considered better to fallback to a different NUMA node rather than consume precious lowmem zones. This argument is, however, weaken by the fact that the memory reclaim has been reworked to be node rather than zone oriented. This means that lowmem requests have to skip over all highmem pages on LRUs already and so zone ordering doesn't save the reclaim time much. So the only advantage of the zone ordering is under a light memory pressure when highmem requests do not ever hit into lowmem zones and the lowmem pressure doesn't need to reclaim. Considering that 32b NUMA systems are rather suboptimal already and it is generally advisable to use 64b kernel on such a HW I believe we should rather care about the code maintainability and just get rid of ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE altogether. Keep systcl in place and warn if somebody tries to set zone ordering either from kernel command line or the sysctl.

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support
The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
hardware features of x86 CPUs:
- Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)
Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
default.
(By Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
decrypt) as well.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
by default.
(By Tom Lendacky)
- Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
switch mm's.
(By Andy Lutomirski)
All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
are all enabled in v4.14 at once"

s390/vmcp: make use of contiguous memory allocator
If memory is fragmented it is unlikely that large order memory allocations succeed. This has been an issue with the vmcp device driver since a long time, since it requires large physical contiguous memory ares for large responses. To hopefully resolve this issue make use of the contiguous memory allocator (cma). This patch adds a vmcp specific vmcp cma area with a default size of 4MB. The size can be changed either via the VMCP_CMA_SIZE config option at compile time or with the "vmcp_cma" kernel parameter (e.g. "vmcp_cma=16m"). For any vmcp response buffers larger than 16k memory from the cma area will be allocated. If such an allocation fails, there is a fallback to the buddy allocator.

documentation: Fix relation between nohz_full and rcu_nocbs
If a CPU is specified in the nohz_full= kernel boot parameter to a kernel built with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, then that CPU's callbacks will be offloaded, just as if that CPU had also been specified in the rcu_nocbs= kernel boot parameter. But the current documentation states that the user must keep these two boot parameters manually synchronized. This commit therefore updates the documentation to reflect reality.

mm: allow slab_nomerge to be set at build time
Some hardened environments want to build kernels with slab_nomerge already set (so that they do not depend on remembering to set the kernel command line option). This is desired to reduce the risk of kernel heap overflows being able to overwrite objects from merged caches and changes the requirements for cache layout control, increasing the difficulty of these attacks. By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits can usually only damage objects in the same cache (though the risk to metadata exploitation is unchanged).

Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull security layer updates from James Morris:
- a major update for AppArmor. From JJ:
* several bug fixes and cleanups
* the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated
on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of
securityfs symlinks
* it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been
carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it
converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling
base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally
will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide
a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries.
* This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation
features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that
Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top
of this.
- Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map
permission. From Paul:
"While we're down to 21 patches for v4.13 (it was 31 for v4.12),
the diffstat jumps up tremendously with over 2k of line changes.
Almost all of these changes are the SELinux/IB work done by
Daniel Jurgens; some other noteworthy changes include a NFS v4.2
labeling fix, a new file:map permission, and reporting of policy
capabilities on policy load"
There's also now genfscon labeling support for tracefs, which was
lost in v4.1 with the separation from debugfs.
- Smack incorporates a safer socket check in file_receive, and adds a
cap_capable call in privilege check.
- TPM as usual has a bunch of fixes and enhancements.
- Multiple calls to security_add_hooks() can now be made for the same
LSM, to allow LSMs to have hook declarations across multiple files.
- IMA now supports different "ima_appraise=" modes (eg. log, fix) from
the boot command line.

ima: define a set of appraisal rules requiring file signatures
The builtin "ima_appraise_tcb" policy should require file signatures for at least a few of the hooks (eg. kernel modules, firmware, and the kexec kernel image), but changing it would break the existing userspace/kernel ABI. This patch defines a new builtin policy named "secure_boot", which can be specified on the "ima_policy=" boot command line, independently or in conjunction with the "ima_appraise_tcb" policy, by specifing ima_policy="appraise_tcb | secure_boot". The new appraisal rules requiring file signatures will be added prior to the "ima_appraise_tcb" rules.

mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas
Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping. But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX] which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN. This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical, unfortunatelly. Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot. One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace, but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong for some special case applications. For now, add a kernel command line option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units). Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page: because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point, a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK and strict non-overcommit mode. Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start (or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(), and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

rcu: Remove *_SLOW_* Kconfig options
The RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP, and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY Kconfig options are only useful for torture testing, and there are the rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay, rcutree.gp_init_delay, and rcutree.gp_preinit_delay kernel boot parameters that rcutorture can use instead. The effect of these parameters is to artificially slow down grace period initialization and cleanup in order to make some types of race conditions happen more often. This commit therefore simplifies Tree RCU a bit by removing the Kconfig options and adding the corresponding kernel parameters to rcutorture's .boot files instead. However, this commit also leaves out the kernel parameters for TREE02, TREE04, and TREE07 in order to have about the same number of tests slowed as not slowed. TREE01, TREE03, TREE05, and TREE06 are slowed, and the rest are not slowed. Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

srcu: Prevent sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed counter wrap
If a given CPU never happens to ever start an SRCU grace period, the grace-period sequence counter might wrap. If this CPU were to decide to finally start a grace period, the state of its sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed might make it appear that it has already requested this grace period, which would prevent starting the grace period. If no other CPU ever started a grace period again, this would look like a grace-period hang. Even if some other CPU took pity and started the needed grace period, the leaf rcu_node structure's ->srcu_data_have_cbs field won't have record of the fact that this CPU has a callback pending, which would look like a very localized grace-period hang. This might seem very unlikely, but SRCU grace periods can take less than a microsecond on small systems, which means that overflow can happen in much less than an hour on a 32-bit embedded system. And embedded systems are especially likely to have long-term idle CPUs. Therefore, it makes sense to prevent this scenario from happening. This commit therefore scans each srcu_data structure occasionally, with frequency controlled by the srcutree.counter_wrap_check kernel boot parameter. This parameter can be set to something like 255 in order to exercise the counter-wrap-prevention code. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

rcuperf: Add writer_holdoff boot parameter
This commit adds a writer_holdoff boot parameter to rcuperf, which is intended to be used to test Tree SRCU's auto-expediting. This boot parameter is in microseconds, and defaults to zero (that is, disabled). Set it to a bit larger than srcutree.exp_holdoff, keeping the nanosecond/microsecond conversion, to force Tree SRCU to auto-expedite more aggressively.

rcuperf: Add ability to performance-test call_rcu() and friends
This commit upgrades rcuperf so that it can do performance testing on asynchronous grace-period primitives such as call_srcu(). There is a new rcuperf.gp_async module parameter that specifies this new behavior, with the pre-existing rcuperf.gp_exp testing expedited grace periods such as synchronize_rcu_expedited, and with the default being to test synchronous non-expedited grace periods such as synchronize_rcu(). There is also a new rcuperf.gp_async_max module parameter that specifies the maximum number of outstanding callbacks per writer kthread, defaulting to 1,000. When this limit is exceeded, the writer thread invokes the appropriate flavor of rcu_barrier() to wait for callbacks to drain. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
