* parisc: clear floating point exception flag on SIGFPE signalHelge Deller2010-07-051-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 550f0d922286556c7ea43974bb7921effb5a5278 upstream. Clear the floating point exception flag before returning to user space. This is needed, else the libc trampoline handler may hit the same SIGFPE again while building up a trampoline to a signal handler. Fixes debian bug #559406.

* KVM: SVM: Don't allow nested guest to VMMCALL into hostJoerg Roedel2010-07-051-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch disables the possibility for a l2-guest to do a VMMCALL directly into the host. This would happen if the l1-hypervisor doesn't intercept VMMCALL and the l2-guest executes this instruction.

* KVM: x86: Inject #GP with the right rip on efer writesRoedel, Joerg2010-07-051-19/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug in the KVM efer-msr write path. If a guest writes to a reserved efer bit the set_efer function injects the #GP directly. The architecture dependent wrmsr function does not see this, assumes success and advances the rip. This results in a #GP in the guest with the wrong rip. This patch fixes this by reporting efer write errors back to the architectural wrmsr function.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cr0.wp=0, we may shadow a gpte having u/s=1 and r/w=0 with an spte having u/s=0 and r/w=1.

* x86, paravirt: Add a global synchronization point for pvclockGlauber Costa2010-07-051-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In recent stress tests, it was found that pvclock-based systems could seriously warp in smp systems. Using ingo's time-warp-test.c, I could trigger a scenario as bad as 1.5mi warps a minute in some systems. (to be fair, it wasn't that bad in most of them). Investigating further, I found out that such warps were caused by the very offset-based calculation pvclock is based on. This happens even on some machines that report constant_tsc in its tsc flags, specially on multi-socket ones. Two reads of the same kernel timestamp at approx the same time, will likely have tsc timestamped in different occasions too. This means the delta we calculate is unpredictable at best, and can probably be smaller in a cpu that is legitimately reading clock in a forward ocasion. Some adjustments on the host could make this window less likely to happen, but still, it pretty much poses as an intrinsic problem of the mechanism. A while ago, I though about using a shared variable anyway, to hold clock last state, but gave up due to the high contention locking was likely to introduce, possibly rendering the thing useless on big machines. I argue, however, that locking is not necessary. We do a read-and-return sequence in pvclock, and between read and return, the global value can have changed. However, it can only have changed by means of an addition of a positive value. So if we detected that our clock timestamp is less than the current global, we know that we need to return a higher one, even though it is not exactly the one we compared to. OTOH, if we detect we're greater than the current time source, we atomically replace the value with our new readings. This do causes contention on big boxes (but big here means *BIG*), but it seems like a good trade off, since it provide us with a time source guaranteed to be stable wrt time warps. After this patch is applied, I don't see a single warp in time during 5 days of execution, in any of the machines I saw them before.

* KVM: SVM: Don't sync nested cr8 to lapic and backJoerg Roedel2010-07-051-15/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes syncing of the guest tpr to the lapic conditional on !nested. Otherwise a nested guest using the TPR could freeze the guest. Another important change this patch introduces is that the cr8 intercept bits are no longer ORed at vmrun emulation if the guest sets VINTR_MASKING in its VMCB. The reason is that nested cr8 accesses need alway be handled by the nested hypervisor because they change the shadow version of the tpr.

* xen: ensure timer tick is resumed even on CPU driving the resumeIan Campbell2010-07-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit cd52e17ea8278f8449b6174a8e5ed439a2e44ffb upstream. The core suspend/resume code is run from stop_machine on CPU0 but parts of the suspend/resume machinery (including xen_arch_resume) are run on whichever CPU happened to schedule the xenwatch kernel thread. As part of the non-core resume code xen_arch_resume is called in order to restart the timer tick on non-boot processors. The boot processor itself is taken care of by core timekeeping code. xen_arch_resume uses smp_call_function which does not call the given function on the current processor. This means that we can end up with one CPU not receiving timer ticks if the xenwatch thread happened to be scheduled on CPU > 0. Use on_each_cpu instead of smp_call_function to ensure the timer tick is resumed everywhere.

* x86/amd-iommu: Fall back to GART if initialization failsJoerg Roedel2010-07-052-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit d7f0776975334070a93370ae048fda0c31a91c38 upstream. This patch implements a fallback to the GART IOMMU if this is possible and the AMD IOMMU initialization failed. Otherwise the fallback would be nommu which is very problematic on machines with more than 4GB of memory or swiotlb which hurts io-performance.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | commit e82752d8b5a7e0a5e4d607fd8713549e2a4e2741 upstream. When request_mem_region fails the error path tries to disable the IOMMUs. This accesses the mmio-region which was not allocated leading to a kernel crash. This patch fixes the issue.

* powerpc/pseries: Only call start-cpu when a CPU is stoppedMichael Neuling2010-07-051-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit aef40e87d866355ffd279ab21021de733242d0d5 upstream. Currently we always call start-cpu irrespective of if the CPU is stopped or not. Unfortunatley on POWER7, firmware seems to not like start-cpu being called when a cpu already been started. This was not the case on POWER6 and earlier. This patch checks to see if the CPU is stopped or not via an query-cpu-stopped-state call, and only calls start-cpu on CPUs which are stopped. This fixes a bug with kexec on POWER7 on PHYP where only the primary thread would make it to the second kernel.

* powerpc: Fix handling of strncmp with zero lenJeff Mahoney2010-07-051-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 637a99022fb119b90fb281715d13172f0394fc12 upstream. Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first string as the return value. This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that case.

* oprofile/x86: fix uninitialized counter usage during cpu hotplugRobert Richter2010-07-051-2/+8

This fixes a NULL pointer dereference that is triggered when taking a cpu offline after oprofile was initialized, e.g.: $ opcontrol --init $ opcontrol --start-daemon $ opcontrol --shutdown $ opcontrol --deinit $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online See the crash dump below. Though the counter has been disabled the cpu notifier is still active and trying to use already freed counter data. This fix is for linux-stable. To proper fix this, the hotplug code must be rewritten. Thus I will leave a WARN_ON_ONCE() message with this patch.

Currently, this fixes a boot crash on top of Xen. In the future this will become an issue on KVM as well. Check if northbridge devices are present and do not enable the feature if there are none.

* x86, k8: Fix build error when K8_NB is disabledBorislav Petkov2010-05-261-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit ade029e2aaacc8965a548b0b0f80c5bee97ffc68 upstream. K8_NB depends on PCI and when the last is disabled (allnoconfig) we fail at the final linking stage due to missing exported num_k8_northbridges. Add a header stub for that.

* powerpc/perf_event: Fix oops due to perf_event_do_pending callPaul Mackerras2010-05-265-66/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 0fe1ac48bef018bed896307cd12f6ca9b5e704ab upstream. Anton Blanchard found that large POWER systems would occasionally crash in the exception exit path when profiling with perf_events. The symptom was that an interrupt would occur late in the exit path when the MSR[RI] (recoverable interrupt) bit was clear. Interrupts should be hard-disabled at this point but they were enabled. Because the interrupt was not recoverable the system panicked. The reason is that the exception exit path was calling perf_event_do_pending after hard-disabling interrupts, and perf_event_do_pending will re-enable interrupts. The simplest and cleanest fix for this is to use the same mechanism that 32-bit powerpc does, namely to cause a self-IPI by setting the decrementer to 1. This means we can remove the tests in the exception exit path and raw_local_irq_restore. This also makes sure that the call to perf_event_do_pending from timer_interrupt() happens within irq_enter/irq_exit. (Note that calling perf_event_do_pending from timer_interrupt does not mean that there is a possible 1/HZ latency; setting the decrementer to 1 ensures that the timer interrupt will happen immediately, i.e. within one timebase tick, which is a few nanoseconds or 10s of nanoseconds.)

* ptrace: fix return value of do_syscall_trace_enter()Gerald Schaefer2010-05-261-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 545c174d1f093a462b4bb9131b23d5ea72a600e1 upstream. strace may change the system call number, so regs->gprs[2] must not be read before tracehook_report_syscall_entry(). This fixes a bug where "strace -f" will hang after a vfork().

* MIPS: Sibyte: Apply M3 workaround only on affected chip types and versions.Ralf Baechle2010-05-122-1/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | (cherry picked from commit e65c7f33d75e977350ca350573d93c517ec02776) Previously it was unconditionally used on all Sibyte family SOCs. The M3 bug has to be handled in the TLB exception handler which is extremly performance sensitive, so this modification is expected to deliver around 2-3% performance improvment. This is important as required changes to the M3 workaround will make it more costly. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
