2013-08-22Revert "x86 get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom-up direction"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit df54d6fa54275ce59660453e29d1228c2b45a826. The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't specified. In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774 So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

2013-08-21ARM: tegra: always enable USB VBUS regulatorsStephen Warren
This fixes a regression exposed during the merge window by commit 9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS regulator GPIO polarity in DT"; namely that USB VBUS doesn't get turned on, so USB devices are not detected. This affects the internal USB port on TrimSlice (i.e. the USB->SATA bridge, to which the SSD is connected) and the external port(s) on Seaboard/ Springbank and Whistler. The Tegra DT as written in v3.11 allows two paths to enable USB VBUS: 1) Via the legacy DT binding for the USB controller; it can directly acquire a VBUS GPIO and activate it. 2) Via a regulator for VBUS, which is referenced by the new DT binding for the USB controller. Those two methods both use the same GPIO, and hence whichever of the USB controller and regulator gets probed first ends up owning the GPIO. In practice, the USB driver only supports path (1) above, since the patches to support the new USB binding are not present until v3.12:-( In practice, the regulator ends up being probed first and owning the GPIO. Since nothing enables the regulator (the USB driver code is not yet present), the regulator ends up being turned off. This originally caused no problem, because the polarity in the regulator definition was incorrect, so attempting to turn off the regulator actually turned it on, and everything worked:-( However, when testing the new USB driver code in v3.12, I noticed the incorrect polarity and fixed it in commit 9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS regulator GPIO polarity in DT". In the context of v3.11, this patch then caused the USB VBUS to actually turn off, which broke USB ports with VBUS control. I got this patch included in v3.11-rc1 since it fixed a bug in device tree (incorrect polarity specification), and hence was suitable to be included early in the rc series. I evidently did not test the patch at all, or correctly, in the context of v3.11, and hence did not notice the issue that I have explained above:-( Fix this by making the USB VBUS regulators always enabled. This way, if the regulator owns the GPIO, it will always be turned on, even if there is no USB driver code to request the regulator be turned on. Even ignoring this bug, this is a reasonable way to configure the HW anyway. If this patch is applied to v3.11, it will cause a couple pretty trivial conflicts in tegra20-{trimslice,seaboard}.dts when creating v3.12, since the context right above the added lines changed in patches destined for v3.12.

2013-08-20xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU onlineChuck Anderson
An older PVHVM guest (v3.0 based) crashed during vCPU hot-plug with: kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328! RCU has detected that a CPU has not entered a quiescent state within the grace period. It needs to send the CPU a reschedule IPI if it is not offline. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() does this check: /* * If the CPU is offline, it is in a quiescent state. We can * trust its state not to change because interrupts are disabled. */ if (cpu_is_offline(rdp->cpu)) { rdp->offline_fqs++; return 1; } Else the CPU is online. Send it a reschedule IPI. The CPU is in the middle of being hot-plugged and has been marked online (!cpu_is_offline()). See start_secondary(): set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true); ... per_cpu(cpu_state, smp_processor_id()) = CPU_ONLINE; start_secondary() then waits for the CPU bringing up the hot-plugged CPU to mark it as active: /* * Wait until the cpu which brought this one up marked it * online before enabling interrupts. If we don't do that then * we can end up waking up the softirq thread before this cpu * reached the active state, which makes the scheduler unhappy * and schedule the softirq thread on the wrong cpu. This is * only observable with forced threaded interrupts, but in * theory it could also happen w/o them. It's just way harder * to achieve. */ while (!cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), cpu_active_mask)) cpu_relax(); /* enable local interrupts */ local_irq_enable(); The CPU being hot-plugged will be marked active after it has been fully initialized by the CPU managing the hot-plug. In the Xen PVHVM case xen_smp_intr_init() is called to set up the hot-plugged vCPU's XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR. The hot-plugging CPU is marked online, not marked active and does not have its IPI vectors set up. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() sees the hot-plugging cpu is !cpu_is_offline() and tries to send it a reschedule IPI: This will lead to: kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328! xen_send_IPI_one() xen_smp_send_reschedule() rcu_implicit_offline_qs() rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs() force_qs_rnp() force_quiescent_state() __rcu_process_callbacks() rcu_process_callbacks() __do_softirq() call_softirq() do_softirq() irq_exit() xen_evtchn_do_upcall() because xen_send_IPI_one() will attempt to use an uninitialized IRQ for the XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR. There is at least one other place that has caused the same crash: xen_smp_send_reschedule() wake_up_idle_cpu() add_timer_on() clocksource_watchdog() call_timer_fn() run_timer_softirq() __do_softirq() call_softirq() do_softirq() irq_exit() xen_evtchn_do_upcall() xen_hvm_callback_vector() clocksource_watchdog() uses cpu_online_mask to pick the next CPU to handle a watchdog timer: /* * Cycle through CPUs to check if the CPUs stay synchronized * to each other. */ next_cpu = cpumask_next(raw_smp_processor_id(), cpu_online_mask); if (next_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids) next_cpu = cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask); watchdog_timer.expires += WATCHDOG_INTERVAL; add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, next_cpu); This resulted in an attempt to send an IPI to a hot-plugging CPU that had not initialized its reschedule vector. One option would be to make the RCU code check to not check for CPU offline but for CPU active. As becoming active is done after a CPU is online (in older kernels). But Srivatsa pointed out that "the cpu_active vs cpu_online ordering has been completely reworked - in the online path, cpu_active is set *before* cpu_online, and also, in the cpu offline path, the cpu_active bit is reset in the CPU_DYING notification instead of CPU_DOWN_PREPARE." Drilling in this the bring-up path: "[brought up CPU].. send out a CPU_STARTING notification, and in response to that, the scheduler sets the CPU in the cpu_active_mask. Again, this mask is better left to the scheduler alone, since it has the intelligence to use it judiciously." The conclusion was that: " 1. At the IPI sender side: It is incorrect to send an IPI to an offline CPU (cpu not present in the cpu_online_mask). There are numerous places where we check this and warn/complain. 2. At the IPI receiver side: It is incorrect to let the world know of our presence (by setting ourselves in global bitmasks) until our initialization steps are complete to such an extent that we can handle the consequences (such as receiving interrupts without crashing the sender etc.) " (from Srivatsa) As the native code enables the interrupts at some point we need to be able to service them. In other words a CPU must have valid IPI vectors if it has been marked online. It doesn't need to handle the IPI (interrupts may be disabled) but needs to have valid IPI vectors because another CPU may find it in cpu_online_mask and attempt to send it an IPI. This patch will change the order of the Xen vCPU bring-up functions so that Xen vectors have been set up before start_secondary() is called. It also will not continue to bring up a Xen vCPU if xen_smp_intr_init() fails to initialize it. Orabug 13823853 Signed-off-by Chuck Anderson <chuck.anderson@oracle.com> Acked-by: Srivatsa S.

2013-08-20x86/xen: do not identity map UNUSABLE regions in the machine E820David Vrabel
If there are UNUSABLE regions in the machine memory map, dom0 will attempt to map them 1:1 which is not permitted by Xen and the kernel will crash. There isn't anything interesting in the UNUSABLE region that the dom0 kernel needs access to so we can avoid making the 1:1 mapping and treat it as RAM. We only do this for dom0, as that is where tboot case shows up. A PV domU could have an UNUSABLE region in its pseudo-physical map and would need to be handled in another patch. This fixes a boot failure on hosts with tboot. tboot marks a region in the e820 map as unusable and the dom0 kernel would attempt to map this region and Xen does not permit unusable regions to be mapped by guests.

2013-08-16Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner casesLinus Torvalds
Ben Tebulin reported: "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory failures. This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be reproduced stably on two independent laptops. Git mailing list ran out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue" and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f97 ("mm: limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT"). That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever happened when running out of memory. The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly buggered. It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580b7 ("mm/mmu_gather: enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96ce0 ("mm: fix the TLB range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix was not complete. The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the functions that actually flush the TLB. And so any such case that forgot to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates. Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range() did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it when initializing all the other tlb gather fields. This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler. And the end result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs. Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

2013-08-14m68k/atari: ARAnyM - Fix NatFeat module supportGeert Uytterhoeven
As pointed out by Andreas Schwab, pointers passed to ARAnyM NatFeat calls should be physical addresses, not virtual addresses. Fortunately on Atari, physical and virtual kernel addresses are the same, as long as normal kernel memory is concerned, so this usually worked fine without conversion. But for modules, pointers to literal strings are located in vmalloc()ed memory. Depending on the version of ARAnyM, this causes the nf_get_id() call to just fail, or worse, crash ARAnyM itself with e.g. Gotcha! Illegal memory access. Atari PC = $968c This is a big issue for distro kernels, who want to have all drivers as loadable modules in an initrd. Add a wrapper for nf_get_id() that copies the literal to the stack to work around this issue.

Fix inadvertent breakage in the clone syscall ABI for Microblaze that was introduced in commit f3268edbe6fe ("microblaze: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone"). The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the 4th argument; the third argument slot is used for the stack size. The incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd slot. This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc code will work correctly.

2013-08-13mm: save soft-dirty bits on swapped pagesCyrill Gorcunov
Andy Lutomirski reported that if a page with _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set get swapped out, the bit is getting lost and no longer available when pte read back. To resolve this we introduce _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit which is saved in pte entry for the page being swapped out. When such page is to be read back from a swap cache we check for bit presence and if it's there we clear it and restore the former _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit back. One of the problem was to find a place in pte entry where we can save the _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit while page is in swap. The _PAGE_PSE was chosen for that, it doesn't intersect with swap entry format stored in pte.

Architectures should fully validate whether kexec is possible as part of machine_kexec_prepare(), so that user-space's kexec_load() operation can report any problems. Performing validation in machine_kexec() itself is too late, since it is not allowed to return. Prior to this patch, ARM's machine_kexec() was testing after-the-fact whether machine_kexec_prepare() was able to disable all but one CPU. Instead, modify machine_kexec_prepare() to validate all conditions necessary for machine_kexec_prepare()'s to succeed. BUG if the validation succeeded, yet disabling the CPUs didn't actually work.

2013-08-13ARM: 7809/1: perf: fix event validation for software group leadersWill Deacon
It is possible to construct an event group with a software event as a group leader and then subsequently add a hardware event to the group. This results in the event group being validated by adding all members of the group to a fake PMU and attempting to allocate each event on their respective PMU. Unfortunately, for software events wthout a corresponding arm_pmu, this results in a kernel crash attempting to dereference the ->get_event_idx function pointer. This patch fixes the problem by checking explicitly for software events and ignoring those in event validation (since they can always be scheduled). We will probably want to revisit this for 3.12, since the validation checks don't appear to work correctly when dealing with multiple hardware PMUs anyway.

2013-08-13sched: fix the theoretical signal_wake_up() vs schedule() raceOleg Nesterov
This is only theoretical, but after try_to_wake_up(p) was changed to check p->state under p->pi_lock the code like __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); schedule(); can miss a signal. This is the special case of wait-for-condition, it relies on try_to_wake_up/schedule interaction and thus it does not need mb() between __set_current_state() and if(signal_pending). However, this __set_current_state() can move into the critical section protected by rq->lock, now that try_to_wake_up() takes another lock we need to ensure that it can't be reordered with "if (signal_pending(current))" check inside that section. The patch is actually one-liner, it simply adds smp_wmb() before spin_lock_irq(rq->lock). This is what try_to_wake_up() already does by the same reason. We turn this wmb() into the new helper, smp_mb__before_spinlock(), for better documentation and to allow the architectures to change the default implementation. While at it, kill smp_mb__after_lock(), it has no callers. Perhaps we can also add smp_mb__before/after_spinunlock() for prepare_to_wait().
