4d067d8e05 x86: Extend #DF debugging aid to 64-bit
It is sometimes very helpful to be able to pinpoint the location which
causes a double fault before it turns into a triple fault and the
machine reboots. We have this for 32-bit already so extend it to 64-bit.
On 64-bit we get the register snapshot at #DF time and not from the
first exception which actually causes the #DF. It should be close
enough, though.

[ hpa: and definitely better than nothing, which is what we have now. ]

c8de2fa4dc Merge branch 'rwsem-optimizations'
Merge rwsem optimizations from Michel Lespinasse:
 "These patches extend Alex Shi's work (which added write lock stealing
  on the rwsem slow path) in order to provide rwsem write lock stealing
  on the fast path (that is, without taking the rwsem's wait_lock).

  I have unfortunately been unable to push this through -next before due
  to Ingo Molnar / David Howells / Peter Zijlstra being busy with other
  things.  However, this has gotten some attention from Rik van Riel and
  Davidlohr Bueso who both commented that they felt this was ready for
  v3.10, and Ingo Molnar has said that he was OK with me pushing
  directly to you.  So, here goes :)

  quad-core laptop:

Michel Lespinasse
a31a369b07 x86 rwsem: avoid taking slow path when stealing write lock
modify __down_write[_nested] and __down_write_trylock to grab the write
lock whenever the active count is 0, even if there are queued waiters
(they must be writers pending wakeup, since the active count is 0).

Note that this is an optimization only; architectures without this
optimization will still work fine:

- __down_write() would take the slow path which would take the wait_lock
  and then try stealing the lock (as in the spinlocked rwsem implementation)

- __down_write_trylock() would fail, but callers must be ready to deal
  with that - since there are some writers pending wakeup, they could
  have raced with us and obtained the lock before we steal it.

99737982ca IOMMU Updates for Linux v3.10
The updates are mostly about the x86 IOMMUs this time. Exceptions are
 the groundwork for the PAMU IOMMU from Freescale (for a PPC platform)
 and an extension to the IOMMU group interface. On the x86 side this
 includes a workaround for VT-d to disable interrupt remapping on broken
 chipsets. On the AMD-Vi side the most important new feature is a kernel
 command-line interface to override broken information in IVRS ACPI
 tables and get interrupt remapping working this way. Besides that there
 are small fixes all over the place.

cc456c4e7c x86, gdt, hibernate: Store/load GDT for hibernate path.
The git commite7a5cd063c7b4c58417f674821d63f5eb6747e37
("x86-64, gdt: Store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path
is not needed.") assumes that for the hibernate path the booting
kernel and the resuming kernel MUST be the same. That is certainly
the case for a 32-bit kernel (see check_image_kernel and
CONFIG_ARCH_HIBERNATION_HEADER config option).

However for 64-bit kernels it is OK to have a different kernel
version (and size of the image) of the booting and resuming kernels.
Hence the above mentioned git commit introduces an regression.

This patch fixes it by introducing a 'struct desc_ptr gdt_desc'
back in the 'struct saved_context'. However instead of having in the
'save_processor_state' and 'restore_processor_state' the
store/load_gdt calls, we are only saving the GDT in the
save_processor_state.

For the restore path the lgdt operation is done in
hibernate_asm_[32|64].S in the 'restore_registers' path.

The apt reader of this description will recognize that only 64-bit
kernels need this treatment, not 32-bit. This patch adds the logic
in the 32-bit path to be more similar to 64-bit so that in the future
the unification process can take advantage of this.

[ hpa: this also reverts an inadvertent on-disk format change ]

a43cb95d54 dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()
show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms.  This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.

show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.

* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.

  alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
  metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
  um, xtensa

* Already prints debug info.  Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
  The printed information is superset of what used to be there.

  arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86

* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
  along with generic debug info.  Heiko and Martin think that the
  arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
  Converted to use the generic version.

Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.

An example BUG() dump follows.

Pull core timer updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle's merge are:

   - Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side
     blocking, by Thomas Gleixner.

   - Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov:

   - allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations
     can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code.

   - debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements.

   - suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom
     processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the
     TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0
     after resume.  This can be taken advantage of by the generic via
     the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to
     recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource
     can be used.

   - Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many
     CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current
     simplistic seqfile approach fails.  Convert /proc/timer_list to a
     proper seq_file with its own iterator.

   - Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John
     Stultz.

   - International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code
     internally currently but not exposed externally.  Separate the TAI
     code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer
     and posix-timer code, by John Stultz.

   - Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core
     timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ
     clockevents feature (which will be utilized by future clockevents
     driver updates), which allows the use of IRQ affinities to avoid
     spurious wakeups of idle CPUs - the right CPU with an expiring
     timer will be woken.

   - Add new ARM bcm281xx clocksource driver, by Christian Daudt

   - ... various other fixes and cleanups"

106c992a5e mm/hugetlb: add more arch-defined huge_pte functions
Commit abf09bed3c ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")
introduced another difference in the pte layout vs.  the pmd layout on
s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs.  This requires
replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
huge_pte_xxx version.

This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390.  This change
will be a no-op for those architectures.

KVM guests today use 8bit APIC ids allowing for 256 ID's. Reserving one

is no need for reserving another ID for IO-APIC so the hard max limit for
VCPUS can be increased from 254 to 255. (This was confirmed by Gleb Natapov

5ac2b5c272 perf/x86/intel/P4: Robistify P4 PMU types
Linus found, while extending integer type extension checks in the
sparse static code checker, various fragile patterns of mixed
signed/unsigned  64-bit/32-bit integer use in perf_events_p4.c.

The relevant hardware register ABI is 64 bit wide on 32-bit
kernels as  well, so clean it all up a bit, remove unnecessary
casts, and make sure we  use 64-bit unsigned integers in these
places.

[ Unfortunately this patch was not tested on real P4 hardware,
  those are pretty rare already. If this patch causes any
  problems on P4 hardware then please holler ... ]

Patch adds AVX2/AES-NI/x86-64 implementation of Camellia cipher, requiring
32 parallel blocks for input (512 bytes). Compared to AVX implementation, this
version is extended to use the 256-bit wide YMM registers. For AES-NI
instructions data is split to two 128-bit registers and merged afterwards.
Even with this additional handling, performance should be higher compared
to the AES-NI/AVX implementation.

03bbcb2e7e iommu/vt-d: add quirk for broken interrupt remapping on 55XX chipsets
A few years back intel published a spec update:
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/specification-update/5520-and-5500-chipset-ioh-specification-update.pdf

For the 5520 and 5500 chipsets which contained an errata (specificially errata
53), which noted that these chipsets can't properly do interrupt remapping, and
as a result the recommend that interrupt remapping be disabled in bios.  While
many vendors have a bios update to do exactly that, not all do, and of course
not all users update their bios to a level that corrects the problem.  As a
result, occasionally interrupts can arrive at a cpu even after affinity for that
interrupt has be moved, leading to lost or spurrious interrupts (usually
characterized by the message:
kernel: do_IRQ: 7.71 No irq handler for vector (irq -1)

There have been several incidents recently of people seeing this error, and
investigation has shown that they have system for which their BIOS level is such
that this feature was not properly turned off.  As such, it would be good to
give them a reminder that their systems are vulnurable to this problem.  For
details of those that reported the problem, please see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887006

d78f266483 KVM: VMX: Register a new IPI for posted interrupt
Posted Interrupt feature requires a special IPI to deliver posted interrupt
to guest. And it should has a high priority so the interrupt will not be
blocked by others.
Normally, the posted interrupt will be consumed by vcpu if target vcpu is
running and transparent to OS. But in some cases, the interrupt will arrive
when target vcpu is scheduled out. And host will see it. So we need to
register a dump handler to handle it.

a547c6db4d KVM: VMX: Enable acknowledge interupt on vmexit
The "acknowledge interrupt on exit" feature controls processor behavior
for external interrupt acknowledgement. When this control is set, the
processor acknowledges the interrupt controller to acquire the
interrupt vector on VM exit.

After enabling this feature, an interrupt which arrived when target cpu is
running in vmx non-root mode will be handled by vmx handler instead of handler
in idt. Currently, vmx handler only fakes an interrupt stack and jump to idt
table to let real handler to handle it. Further, we will recognize the interrupt
and only delivery the interrupt which not belong to current vcpu through idt table.
The interrupt which belonged to current vcpu will be handled inside vmx handler.
This will reduce the interrupt handle cost of KVM.

Also, interrupt enable logic is changed if this feature is turnning on:
Before this patch, hypervior call local_irq_enable() to enable it directly.
Now IF bit is set on interrupt stack frame, and will be enabled on a return from
interrupt handler if exterrupt interrupt exists. If no external interrupt, still
call local_irq_enable() to enable it.

Refer to Intel SDM volum 3, chapter 33.2.

cc5a080c5d efi: Pass boot services variable info to runtime code
EFI variables can be flagged as being accessible only within boot services.
This makes it awkward for us to figure out how much space they use at
runtime. In theory we could figure this out by simply comparing the results
from QueryVariableInfo() to the space used by all of our variables, but
that fails if the platform doesn't garbage collect on every boot. Thankfully,
calling QueryVariableInfo() while still inside boot services gives a more
reliable answer. This patch passes that information from the EFI boot stub
up to the efi platform code.

1de14c3c5c x86-32: Fix possible incomplete TLB invalidate with PAE pagetables
This patch attempts to fix:

	https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461

The symptom is a crash and messages like this:

	chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000
	*pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000
	Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP

Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f5 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.

On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).

The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy.  If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).

This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.

BTW, I disassembled and checked that:

	if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
	if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)

generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.

357d122670 x86, xen, gdt: Remove the pvops variant of store_gdt.
The two use-cases where we needed to store the GDT were during ACPI S3 suspend
and resume. As the patches:
 x86/gdt/i386: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernation/resume path is not needed
 x86/gdt/64-bit: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path is not needed.

have demonstrated - there are other mechanism by which the GDT is
saved and reloaded during early resume path.

Hence we do not need to worry about the pvops call-chain for saving the
GDT and can and can eliminate it. The other areas where the store_gdt is
used are never going to be hit when running under the pvops platforms.

84e70971e6 x86-32, gdt: Store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernation/resume path is not needed
During the ACPI S3 suspend, we store the GDT in the wakup_header (see
wakeup_asm.s) field called 'pmode_gdt'.

Which is then used during the resume path and has the same exact
value as what the store/load_gdt do with the saved_context
(which is saved/restored via save/restore_processor_state()).

The flow during resume from ACPI S3 is simpler than the 64-bit
counterpart. We only use the early bootstrap once (wakeup_gdt) and
do various checks in real mode.

After the checks are completed, we load the saved GDT ('pmode_gdt') and
continue on with the resume (by heading to startup_32 in trampoline_32.S) -
which quickly jumps to what was saved in 'pmode_entry'
aka 'wakeup_pmode_return'.

The 'wakeup_pmode_return' restores the GDT (saved_gdt) again (which was
saved in do_suspend_lowlevel initially). After that it ends up calling
the 'ret_point' which calls 'restore_processor_state()'.

We have two opportunities to remove code where we restore the same GDT
twice.

Here is the call chain:
 wakeup_start
       |- lgdtl wakeup_gdt [the work-around broken BIOSes]
       |
       | - lgdtl pmode_gdt [the real one]
       |
       \-- startup_32 (in trampoline_32.S)
              \-- wakeup_pmode_return (in wakeup_32.S)
                       |- lgdtl saved_gdt [the real one]
                       \-- ret_point
                             |..
                             |- call restore_processor_state

The hibernate path is much simpler. During the saving of the hibernation
image we call save_processor_state() and save the contents of that
along with the rest of the kernel in the hibernation image destination.
We save the EIP of 'restore_registers' (restore_jump_address) and
cr3 (restore_cr3).

During hibernate resume, the 'restore_registers' (via the
'restore_jump_address) in hibernate_asm_32.S is invoked which
restores the contents of most registers. Naturally the resume path benefits
from already being in 32-bit mode, so it does not have to reload the GDT.

It only reloads the cr3 (from restore_cr3) and continues on. Note
that the restoration of the restore image page-tables is done prior to
this.

After the 'restore_registers' it returns and we end up called
restore_processor_state() - where we reload the GDT. The reload of
the GDT is not needed as bootup kernel has already loaded the GDT
which is at the same physical location as the the restored kernel.

Note that the hibernation path assumes the GDT is correct during its
'restore_registers'. The assumption in the code is that the restored
image is the same as saved - meaning we are not trying to restore
an different kernel in the virtual address space of a new kernel.

e7a5cd063c x86-64, gdt: Store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path is not needed.
During the ACPI S3 resume path the trampoline code handles it already.

During the ACPI S3 suspend phase (acpi_suspend_lowlevel) we set:
early_gdt_descr.address = (..)get_cpu_gdt_table(smp_processor_id());

which is then used during the resume path and has the same exact
value as what the store/load_gdt do with the saved_context
(which is saved/restored via save/restore_processor_state()).

The flow during resume is complex and for 64-bit kernels we use three GDTs
- one early bootstrap GDT (wakeup_igdt) that we load to workaround
broken BIOSes, an early Protected Mode to Long Mode transition one
(tr_gdt), and the final one - early_gdt_descr (which points to the real GDT).

The early ('wakeup_gdt') is loaded in 'trampoline_start' for working
around broken BIOSes, and then when we end up in Protected Mode in the
startup_32 (in trampoline_64.s, not head_32.s) we use the 'tr_gdt'
(still in trampoline_64.s). This 'tr_gdt' has a a 32-bit code segment,
64-bit code segment with L=1, and a 32-bit data segment.

Once we have transitioned from Protected Mode to Long Mode we then
set the GDT to 'early_gdt_desc' and then via an iretq emerge in
wakeup_long64 (set via 'initial_code' variable in acpi_suspend_lowlevel).

In the wakeup_long64 we end up restoring the %rip (which is set to
'resume_point') and jump there.

In 'resume_point' we call 'restore_processor_state' which does
the load_gdt on the saved context. This load_gdt is redundant as the
GDT loaded via early_gdt_desc is the same.

Here is the call-chain:
 wakeup_start
   |- lgdtl wakeup_gdt [the work-around broken BIOSes]
   |
   \-- trampoline_start (trampoline_64.S)
         |- lgdtl tr_gdt

4eefbe792b x86: Use a read-only IDT alias on all CPUs
Make a copy of the IDT (as seen via the "sidt" instruction) read-only.
This primarily removes the IDT from being a target for arbitrary memory
write attacks, and has the added benefit of also not leaking the kernel
base offset, if it has been relocated.

We already did this on vendor == Intel and family == 5 because of the
F0 0F bug -- regardless of if a particular CPU had the F0 0F bug or
not.  Since the workaround was so cheap, there simply was no reason to
be very specific.  This patch extends the readonly alias to all CPUs,
but does not activate the #PF to #UD conversion code needed to deliver
the proper exception in the F0 0F case except on Intel family 5
processors.

5952886bfe x86/mm/cpa: Cleanup split_large_page() and its callee
So basically we're generating the pte_t * from a struct page and
we're handing it down to the __split_large_page() internal version
which then goes and gets back struct page * from it because it
needs it.

Change the caller to hand down struct page * directly and the
callee can compute the pte_t itself.

Net save is one virt_to_page() call and simpler code. While at
it, make __split_large_page() static.

9c5320c8ea cpufreq: AMD "frequency sensitivity feedback" powersave bias for ondemand governor
Future AMD processors, starting with Family 16h, can provide software
with feedback on how the workload may respond to frequency change --
memory-bound workloads will not benefit from higher frequency, where
as compute-bound workloads will. This patch enables this "frequency
sensitivity feedback" to aid the ondemand governor to make better
frequency change decisions by hooking into the powersave bias.

8b4b9f27e5 x86: remove the x32 syscall bitmask from syscall_get_nr()
Commit fca460f95e simplified the x32
implementation by creating a syscall bitmask, equal to 0x40000000, that
could be applied to x32 syscalls such that the masked syscall number
would be the same as a x86_64 syscall.  While that patch was a nice
way to simplify the code, it went a bit too far by adding the mask to
syscall_get_nr(); returning the masked syscall numbers can cause
confusion with callers that expect syscall numbers matching the x32
ABI, e.g. unmasked syscall numbers.

This patch fixes this by simply removing the mask from syscall_get_nr()
while preserving the other changes from the original commit.  While
there are several syscall_get_nr() callers in the kernel, most simply
check that the syscall number is greater than zero, in this case this
patch will have no effect.  Of those remaining callers, they appear
to be few, seccomp and ftrace, and from my testing of seccomp without
this patch the original commit definitely breaks things; the seccomp
filter does not correctly filter the syscalls due to the difference in
syscall numbers in the BPF filter and the value from syscall_get_nr().
Applying this patch restores the seccomp BPF filter functionality on
x32.

I've tested this patch with the seccomp BPF filters as well as ftrace
and everything looks reasonable to me; needless to say general usage
seemed fine as well.

However, a look at cmci_rediscover shows that it can be simplified quite
a bit, apart from solving the above issue. It invokes functions that
take spin locks with interrupts disabled, and hence it can run in atomic
context. Also, it is run in the CPU_POST_DEAD phase, so the dying CPU
is already dead and out of the cpu_online_mask. So take these points into
account and simplify the code, and thereby also fix the above issue.

f20093eef5 perf/x86: Add memory profiling via PEBS Load Latency
This patch adds support for memory profiling using the
PEBS Load Latency facility.

Load accesses are sampled by HW and the instruction
address, data address, load latency, data source, tlb,
locked information can be saved in the sampling buffer
if using the PERF_SAMPLE_COST (for latency),
PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR, PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC types.

To enable PEBS Load Latency, users have to use the
model specific event:

 - on NHM/WSM: MEM_INST_RETIRED:LATENCY_ABOVE_THRESHOLD
 - on SNB/IVB: MEM_TRANS_RETIRED:LATENCY_ABOVE_THRESHOLD

To make things easier, this patch also exports a generic
alias via sysfs: mem-loads. It export the right event
encoding based on the host CPU and can be used directly
by the perf tool.

Loosely based on Intel's Lin Ming patch posted on LKML
in July 2011.

For MSI-X capable devices the hypervisor wants to write protect the
MSI-X table and PBA, yet it can't assume that resources have been
assigned to their final values at device enumeration time. Thus have
pciback do that notification, as having the device controlled by it is
a prerequisite to assigning the device to guests anyway.

add mechanism to fully protect MSI-X table from PV guest accesses") on

There is a potential use after free issue with the handling of
MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME.  If the guest specifies a GPA in a movable or removable
memory such as frame buffers then KVM might continue to write to that
address even after it's removed via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION.  KVM pins
the page in memory so it's unlikely to cause an issue, but if the user
space component re-purposes the memory previously used for the guest, then
the guest will be able to corrupt that memory.

Tested: Tested against kvmclock unit test
