For systems with multiple servers and routed fabric, all
northbridges get assigned to the first server. Fix this by also
using the node reported from the PCI bus. For single-fabric
systems, the northbriges are on PCI bus 0 by definition, which
are on NUMA node 0 by definition, so this is invarient on most
systems.
Tested on fam10h and fam15h single and multi-fabric systems and

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"I know this is a bit more than you want to see, and I've told the
wireless folks under no uncertain terms that they must severely scale
back the extent of the fixes they are submitting this late in the
game.
Anyways:
1) vmxnet3's netpoll doesn't perform the equivalent of an ISR, which
is the correct implementation, like it should. Instead it does
something like a NAPI poll operation. This leads to crashes.
From Neil Horman and Arnd Bergmann.
2) Segmentation of SKBs requires proper socket orphaning of the
fragments, otherwise we might access stale state released by the
release callbacks.
This is a 5 patch fix, but the initial patches are giving
variables and such significantly clearer names such that the
actual fix itself at the end looks trivial.
From Michael S. Tsirkin.
3) TCP control block release can deadlock if invoked from a timer on
an already "owned" socket. Fix from Eric Dumazet.
4) In the bridge multicast code, we must validate that the
destination address of general queries is the link local all-nodes
multicast address. From Linus Lüssing.
5) The x86 BPF JIT support for negative offsets puts the parameter
for the helper function call in the wrong register. Fix from
Alexei Starovoitov.
6) The descriptor type used for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_17 chips in the
r8169 driver is incorrect. Fix from Hayes Wang.
7) The xen-netback driver tests skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type bits to see
if a packet is a GSO frame, but that's not the correct test. It
should use skb_is_gso(skb) instead. Fix from Wei Liu.
8) Negative msg->msg_namelen values should generate an error, from
Matthew Leach.
9) at86rf230 can deadlock because it takes the same lock from it's
ISR and it's hard_start_xmit method, without disabling interrupts
in the latter. Fix from Alexander Aring.
10) The FEC driver's restart doesn't perform operations in the correct
order, so promiscuous settings can get lost. Fix from Stefan
Wahren.
11) Fix SKB leak in SCTP cookie handling, from Daniel Borkmann.
12) Reference count and memory leak fixes in TIPC from Ying Xue and
Erik Hugne.
13) Forced eviction in inet_frag_evictor() must strictly make sure all
frags are deleted, otherwise module unload (f.e. 6lowpan) can
crash. Fix from Florian Westphal.
14) Remove assumptions in AF_UNIX's use of csum_partial() (which it
uses as a hash function), which breaks on PowerPC. From Anton
Blanchard.
The main gist of the issue is that csum_partial() is defined only
as a value that, once folded (f.e. via csum_fold()) produces a
correct 16-bit checksum. It is legitimate, therefore, for
csum_partial() to produce two different 32-bit values over the
same data if their respective alignments are different.
15) Fix endiannes bug in MAC address handling of ibmveth driver, also
from Anton Blanchard.
16) Error checks for ipv6 exthdrs offload registration are reversed,
from Anton Nayshtut.
17) Externally triggered ipv6 addrconf routes should count against the
garbage collection threshold. Fix from Sabrina Dubroca.
18) The PCI shutdown handler added to the bnx2 driver can wedge the
chip if it was not brought up earlier already, which in particular
causes the firmware to shut down the PHY. Fix from Michael Chan.
19) Adjust the sanity WARN_ON_ONCE() in qdisc_list_add() because as
currently coded it can and does trigger in legitimate situations.
From Eric Dumazet.
20) BNA driver fails to build on ARM because of a too large udelay()
call, fix from Ben Hutchings.
21) Fair-Queue qdisc holds locks during GFP_KERNEL allocations, fix
from Eric Dumazet.
22) The vlan passthrough ops added in the previous release causes a
regression in source MAC address setting of outgoing headers in
some circumstances. Fix from Peter Boström"

The compat vDSO is a complicated hack that's needed to maintain
compatibility with a small range of glibc versions.
This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config
option to disable the 32-bit vDSO by default.
This also changes the default value of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO to n --
users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that
choice.

Both QEMU and KVM have already accumulated a significant number of
optimizations based on the hard-coded assumption that ioapic polarity
will always use the ActiveHigh convention, where the logical and
physical states of level-triggered irq lines always match (i.e.,
active(asserted) == high == 1, inactive == low == 0). QEMU guests
are expected to follow directions given via ACPI and configure the
ioapic with polarity 0 (ActiveHigh). However, even when misbehaving
guests (e.g. OS X <= 10.9) set the ioapic polarity to 1 (ActiveLow),
QEMU will still use the ActiveHigh signaling convention when
interfacing with KVM.
This patch modifies KVM to completely ignore ioapic polarity as set by
the guest OS, enabling misbehaving guests to work alongside those which
comply with the ActiveHigh polarity specified by QEMU's ACPI tables.

We always disable cr8 intercept in its handler, but only re-enable it
if handling KVM_REQ_EVENT, so there can be a window where we do not
intercept cr8 writes, which allows an interrupt to disrupt a higher
priority task.
Fix this by disabling intercepts in the same function that re-enables
them when needed. This fixes BSOD in Windows 2008.

Commit a998d4342337 claimed to introduce negative offset support to x86 jit,
but it couldn't be working, since at the time of the execution
of LD+ABS or LD+IND instructions via call into
bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper() the %edx (3rd argument of this func)
had junk value instead of access size in bytes (1 or 2 or 4).
Store size into %edx instead of %ecx (what original commit intended to do)

For non-eager fpu mode, thread's fpu state is allocated during the first
fpu usage (in the context of device not available exception). This
(math_state_restore()) can be a blocking call and hence we enable
interrupts (which were originally disabled when the exception happened),
allocate memory and disable interrupts etc.
But the eager-fpu mode, call's the same math_state_restore() from
kernel_fpu_end(). The assumption being that tsk_used_math() is always
set for the eager-fpu mode and thus avoid the code path of enabling
interrupts, allocating fpu state using blocking call and disable
interrupts etc.
But the below issue was noticed by Maarten Baert, Nate Eldredge and
few others:
If a user process dumps core on an ecrypt fs while aesni-intel is loaded,
we get a BUG() in __find_get_block() complaining that it was called with
interrupts disabled; then all further accesses to our ecrypt fs hang
and we have to reboot.
The aesni-intel code (encrypting the core file that we are writing) needs
the FPU and quite properly wraps its code in kernel_fpu_{begin,end}(),
the latter of which calls math_state_restore(). So after kernel_fpu_end(),
interrupts may be disabled, which nobody seems to expect, and they stay
that way until we eventually get to __find_get_block() which barfs.
For eager fpu, most the time, tsk_used_math() is true. At few instances
during thread exit, signal return handling etc, tsk_used_math() might
be false.
In kernel_fpu_end(), for eager-fpu, call math_state_restore()
only if tsk_used_math() is set. Otherwise, don't bother. Kernel code
path which cleared tsk_used_math() knows what needs to be done
with the fpu state.

apic_icr_write() and its users in smpboot.c were apparently
written under the assumption that this code would only run
during early boot. But nowadays we also execute it when onlining
a CPU later on while the system is fully running. That will make
wakeup_cpu_via_init_nmi and, thus, also native_apic_icr_write
run in plain process context. If we migrate the caller to a
different CPU at the wrong time or interrupt it and write to
ICR/ICR2 to send unrelated IPIs, we can end up sending INIT,
SIPI or NMIs to wrong CPUs.
Fix this by disabling interrupts during the write to the ICR
halves and disable preemption around waiting for ICR
availability and using it.

Commit 028a690a1ebc8b "i386: Remove unneeded test of 'task' in
dump_trace()" correctly removed the unneeded 'task != NULL'
check because it would be set to current if it was NULL.
Commit 2bc5f927d489 "i386: split out dumpstack code from
traps_32.c" moved the code from traps_32.c to its own file
dump_stack.c for preparation of the i386 / x86_64 merge.
Commit 8a541665b906 "dumpstack: x86: various small unification
steps" worked to make i386 and x86_64 dump_stack logic similar.
But this actually reverted the correct change from
028a690a1ebc8b.
Commit d0caf292505d "x86/dumpstack: Remove unneeded check in
dump_trace()" removed the unneeded "task != NULL" check for
x86_64 but left that same unneeded check for i386, that was
added because x86_64 had it!
This chain of events ironically had i386 add back the unneeded
task != NULL check because x86_64 did it, and then the fix for
x86_64 was fixed by Dan. And even more ironically, it was Dan's
smatch bot that told me that a change to dump_stack_32 I made
may be wrong if current can be NULL (it can't), as there was a
check for it by assigning task to current, and then checking if
task is NULL.

The error path of uncore_type_init() frees up any allocations
that were made along the way, but it relies upon type->pmus
being set, which only happens if the function succeeds. As
type->pmus remains null in this case, the call to
uncore_type_exit will do nothing.
Moving the assignment earlier will allow us to actually free
those allocations should something go awry.

The function uncore_cpumask_init() references

This is often because uncore_cpumask_init lacks a __init

When not running in guest-debug mode (i.e. the guest controls the debug
registers, having to take an exit for each DR access is a waste of time.
If the guest gets into a state where each context switch causes DR to be
saved and restored, this can take away as much as 40% of the execution
time from the guest.
If the guest is running with vcpu->arch.db == vcpu->arch.eff_db, we
can let it write freely to the debug registers and reload them on the

KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT flag is set in switch_db_regs; after that, further
accesses to the debug registers will not cause a vmexit.

Unlike other intercepts, debug register intercepts will be modified
in hot paths if the guest OS is bad or otherwise gets tricked into
doing so.
Avoid calling recalc_intercepts 16 times for debug registers.

When preparing the VMCS02, the CPU-based execution controls is computed
by vmx_exec_control. Turn off DR access exits there, too, if the
KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT bit is set in switch_db_regs.

When not running in guest-debug mode (i.e. the guest controls the debug
registers, having to take an exit for each DR access is a waste of time.
If the guest gets into a state where each context switch causes DR to be
saved and restored, this can take away as much as 40% of the execution
time from the guest.
If the guest is running with vcpu->arch.db == vcpu->arch.eff_db, we
can let it write freely to the debug registers and reload them on the
next exit. We still need to exit on the first access, so that the
KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT flag is set in switch_db_regs; after that, further
accesses to the debug registers will not cause a vmexit.

When not running in guest-debug mode, the guest controls the debug
registers and having to take an exit for each DR access is a waste
of time. If the guest gets into a state where each context switch
causes DR to be saved and restored, this can take away as much as 40%
of the execution time from the guest.
After this patch, VMX- and SVM-specific code can set a flag in
switch_db_regs, telling vcpu_enter_guest that on the next exit the debug
registers might be dirty and need to be reloaded (syncing will be taken
care of by a new callback in kvm_x86_ops). This flag can be set on the
first access to a debug registers, so that multiple accesses to the
debug registers only cause one vmexit.
Note that since the guest will be able to read debug registers and
enable breakpoints in DR7, we need to ensure that they are synchronized
on entry to the guest---including DR6 that was not synced before.

The next patch will add another bit that we can test with the
same "if".

Currently, this works even if the bit is not in "min", because the bit is always
set in MSR_IA32_VMX_ENTRY_CTLS. Mention it for the sake of documentation, and
to avoid surprises if we later switch to MSR_IA32_VMX_TRUE_ENTRY_CTLS.

It's no longer possible to enter enable_irq_window in guest mode when
L1 intercepts external interrupts and we are entering L2. This is now
caught in vcpu_enter_guest. So we can remove the check from the VMX
version of enable_irq_window, thus the need to return an error code from
both enable_irq_window and enable_nmi_window.

According to SDM 27.2.3, IDT vectoring information will not be valid on
vmexits caused by external NMIs. So we have to avoid creating such
scenarios by delaying EXIT_REASON_EXCEPTION_NMI injection as long as we
have a pending interrupt because that one would be migrated to L1's IDT
vectoring info on nested exit.

We cannot rely on the hardware-provided preemption timer support because
we are holding L2 in HLT outside non-root mode. Furthermore, emulating
the preemption will resolve tick rate errata on older Intel CPUs.
The emulation is based on hrtimer which is started on L2 entry, stopped
on L2 exit and evaluated via the new check_nested_events hook. As we no
longer rely on hardware features, we can enable both the preemption
timer support and value saving unconditionally.

Move the check for leaving L2 on pending and intercepted IRQs or NMIs
from the *_allowed handler into a dedicated callback. Invoke this
callback at the relevant points before KVM checks if IRQs/NMIs can be
injected. The callback has the task to switch from L2 to L1 if needed
and inject the proper vmexit events.
The rework fixes L2 wakeups from HLT and provides the foundation for
preemption timer emulation.

This patch restores the changes of commit dff38e3e93 "x86: Use inline
assembler instead of global register variable to get sp". They got lost
in commit 198d208df4 "x86: Keep thread_info on thread stack in x86_32"
while moving the code to arch/x86/kernel/irq_32.c.
Quoting Andi from commit dff38e3e93:
"""
LTO in gcc 4.6/47. has trouble with global register variables. They were
used to read the stack pointer. Use a simple inline assembler statement
with a mov instead.
This also helps LLVM/clang, which does not support global register
variables.

It's an enum, not a #define, you can't use it in asm files.
Introduced in commit 5fa10196bdb5 ("x86: Ignore NMIs that come in during
early boot"), and sadly I didn't compile-test things like I should have
before pushing out.
My weak excuse is that the x86 tree generally doesn't introduce stupid
things like this (and the ARM pull afterwards doesn't cause me to do a
compile-test either, since I don't cross-compile).

Don Zickus reports:
A customer generated an external NMI using their iLO to test kdump
worked. Unfortunately, the machine hung. Disabling the nmi_watchdog
made things work.
I speculated the external NMI fired, caused the machine to panic (as
expected) and the perf NMI from the watchdog came in and was latched.
My guess was this somehow caused the hang.
----
It appears that the latched NMI stays latched until the early page
table generation on 64 bits, which causes exceptions to happen which
end in IRET, which re-enable NMI. Therefore, ignore NMIs that come in
during early execution, until we have proper exception handling.

Ftrace modifies function calls using Int3 breakpoints on x86.
The breakpoints are handled only when the patching is in progress.
If something goes wrong, there is a recovery code that removes
the breakpoints. If this fails, the system might get silently
rebooted when a remaining break is not handled or an invalid
instruction is proceed.
We should BUG() when the breakpoint could not be removed. Otherwise,
the system silently crashes when the function finishes the Int3
handler is disabled.
Note that we need to modify remove_breakpoint() to return non-zero
value only when there is an error. The return value was ignored before,
so it does not cause any troubles.

As the data parameter is not really used by any ftrace_dyn_arch_init,
remove that from ftrace_dyn_arch_init. This also removes the addr
local variable from ftrace_init which is now unused.
Note the documentation was imprecise as it did not suggest to set
(*data) to 0.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any
way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value
in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against
zero.
Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is
enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on
all archs.
