The watchdog soft-NMI exception stack setup loads a stack pointer
twice, which is an obvious error. It ends up using the system reset
interrupt (true-NMI) stack, which is also a bug because the watchdog
could be preempted by a system reset interrupt that overwrites the
NMI stack.
Change the soft-NMI to use the "emergency stack". The current kernel
stack is not used, because of the longer-term goal to prevent
asynchronous stack access using soft-disable.

Merge tag 'v4.13-rc1' into fixes
The fixes branch is based off a random pre-rc1 commit, because we had
some fixes that needed to go in before rc1 was released.
However we now need to fix some code that went in after that point, but
before rc1, so merge rc1 to get that code into fixes so we can fix it!
Commit 8e3f1b1d8255 ("powerpc/powernv/pci: Enable 64-bit devices to access
>4GB DMA space") introduced the ability for PCI device drivers to request a
DMA mask between 64 and 32 bits and actually get a mask greater than
32-bits. However currently if certain machine configuration dependent
conditions are not meet the code silently falls back to a 32-bit mask.
This makes it hard for device drivers to detect which mask they actually
got. Instead we should return an error when the request could not be
fulfilled which allows drivers to either fallback or implement other
workarounds as documented in DMA-API-HOWTO.txt.

Historically the boot wrapper was always built 32-bit big endian, even
for 64-bit kernels. That was because old firmwares didn't necessarily
support booting a 64-bit image. Because of that arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile
uses CROSS32CC for compilation.
However when we added 64-bit little endian support, we also added
support for building the boot wrapper 64-bit. However we kept using
CROSS32CC, because in most cases it is just CC and everything works.
However if the user doesn't specify CROSS32_COMPILE (which no one ever
does AFAIK), and CC is *not* biarch (32/64-bit capable), then CROSS32CC
becomes just "gcc". On native systems that is probably OK, but if we're
cross building it definitely isn't, leading to eg:
gcc ... -m64 -mlittle-endian -mabi=elfv2 ... arch/powerpc/boot/cpm-serial.c
gcc: error: unrecognized argument in option ‘-mabi=elfv2’
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mlittle-endian’
make: *** [zImage] Error 2
To fix it, stop using CROSS32CC, because we may or may not be building
32-bit. Instead setup a BOOTCC, which defaults to CC, and only use
CROSS32_COMPILE if it's set and we're building for 32-bit.

In smp_cpus_done() we need to call smp_ops->setup_cpu() for the boot
CPU, which means it has to run *on* the boot CPU.
In the past we ensured it ran on the boot CPU by changing the CPU
affinity mask of current directly. That was removed in commit
6d11b87d55eb ("powerpc/smp: Replace open coded task affinity logic"),
and replaced with a work queue call.
Unfortunately using a work queue leads to a lockdep warning, now that
the CPU hotplug lock is a regular semaphore:
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
...
kworker/0:1/971 is trying to acquire lock:

lock((&wfc.work));
lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
lock((&wfc.work));
lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
Although the deadlock can't happen in practice, because
smp_cpus_done() only runs in early boot before CPU hotplug is allowed,
lockdep can't tell that.
Luckily in commit 8fb12156b8db ("init: Pin init task to the boot CPU,
initially") tglx changed the generic code to pin init to the boot CPU
to begin with. The unpinning of init from the boot CPU happens in
sched_init_smp(), which is called after smp_cpus_done().
So smp_cpus_done() is always called on the boot CPU, which means we
don't need the work queue call at all - and the lockdep warning goes
away.

Currently flush_tmregs_to_thread() does not save the TM SPRs (TFHAR,

If the process is core dumping, and the TM SPRs have changed since the

Fix it by saving the live register state to the thread struct in that

The Radix MMU translation tree as defined in ISA v3.0 contains two
different types of entry, directories and leaves. Leaves are
identified by _PAGE_PTE being set.
The formats of the two entries are different, with the directory
entries containing no spare bits for use by software. In particular
the bit we use for _PAGE_DEVMAP is not reserved for software, and is
part of the NLB (Next Level Base) field, essentially the address of
the next level in the tree.
Note that the Linux pte_t is not == _PAGE_PTE. A huge page pmd
entry (or devmap!) is also a leaf and so has _PAGE_PTE set, even
though we use a pmd_t for it in Linux.
The fix is to ensure that the pmd/pte_devmap() confirm they are
looking at a leaf entry (_PAGE_PTE) as well as checking _PAGE_DEVMAP.

In commit efe0160cfd40 ("powerpc/64: Linker on-demand sfpr functions
for modules"), we added an ld version check early in the powerpc
top-level Makefile.
Because the Makefile runs before the kernel config is setup, the
checks for CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN etc. all take the default case. So
we end up configuring ld for 32-bit big endian.
That would be OK, except that for historical (or perhaps no) reason,
we use 'override LD' to add the endian flags to the LD variable
itself, rather than the normal approach of adding them to LDFLAGS.
The end result is that when we check the ld version we run it as:
$(CROSS_COMPILE)ld -EB -m elf32ppc --version
This often works, unless you are using a 64-bit only and/or little
endian only, toolchain. In which case you see something like:
$ make defconfig
powerpc64le-linux-ld: unrecognised emulation mode: elf32ppc
Supported emulations: elf64lppc elf32lppc elf32lppclinux elf32lppcsim
/bin/sh: 1: [: -ge: unexpected operator
The proper fix is to stop using 'override LD', but that will require a
fair bit of testing. Instead we can fix it for now just by reordering
the Makefile to do the version check earlier.

There's a somewhat architectural issue with Radix MMU and KVM.
When coming out of a guest with AIL (Alternate Interrupt Location, ie,
MMU enabled), we start executing hypervisor code with the PID register
still containing whatever the guest has been using.
The problem is that the CPU can (and will) then start prefetching or
speculatively load from whatever host context has that same PID (if
any), thus bringing translations for that context into the TLB, which
Linux doesn't know about.
This can cause stale translations and subsequent crashes.
Fixing this in a way that is neither racy nor a huge performance
impact is difficult. We could just make the host invalidations always
use broadcast forms but that would hurt single threaded programs for
example.
We chose to fix it instead by partitioning the PID space between guest
and host. This is possible because today Linux only use 19 out of the
20 bits of PID space, so existing guests will work if we make the host
use the top half of the 20 bits space.
We additionally add support for a property to indicate to Linux the
size of the PID register which will be useful if we eventually have
processors with a larger PID space available.
There is still an issue with malicious guests purposefully setting the
PID register to a value in the hosts PID range. Hopefully future HW
can prevent that, but in the meantime, we handle it with a pair of
kludges:
- On the way out of a guest, before we clear the current VCPU in the
PACA, we check the PID and if it's outside of the permitted range
we flush the TLB for that PID.
- When context switching, if the mm is "new" on that CPU (the
corresponding bit was set for the first time in the mm cpumask), we
check if any sibling thread is in KVM (has a non-NULL VCPU pointer
in the PACA). If that is the case, we also flush the PID for that
CPU (core).
This second part is needed to handle the case where a process is
migrated (or starts a new pthread) on a sibling thread of the CPU
coming out of KVM, as there's a window where stale translations can
exist before we detect it and flush them out.
A future optimization could be added by keeping track of whether the
PID has ever been used and avoid doing that for completely fresh PIDs.
We could similarily mark PIDs that have been the subject of a global
invalidation as "fresh". But for now this will do.

Move the core logic into a helper, so we can use it for changing other
permissions.
We also change the logic to align start down, and end up. This means
calling the function with a range will expand that range to be at
least 1 mmu_linear_psize page in size. We need that so we can use it
on __init_begin ... __init_end which is not a full page in size.
This should always work for _stext/__init_begin, because we align
__init_begin to _stext + 16M in the linker script.

A previous optimisation incorrectly assumed the PAPR hcall does

In commit 1c0eaf0f56d6 ("powerpc/powernv: Tell OPAL about our MMU mode
on POWER9"), we added additional flags to the OPAL call to configure
CPUs at boot.
These flags only work on Power9 firmwares, and worse can cause boot
failures on Power8 machines, so we check for CPU_FTR_ARCH_300 (aka POWER9)
before adding the extra flags.
Unfortunately we forgot that opal_configure_cores() is called before
the CPU feature checks are dynamically patched, meaning the check
always returns true.
We definitely need to do something to make the CPU feature checks less
prone to bugs like this, but for now the minimal fix is to use
early_cpu_has_feature().

Hyper-V identifies vCPUs by Virtual Processor Index, which can be
queried via HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX msr. It is defined by the spec as a
sequential number which can't exceed the maximum number of vCPUs per VM.
APIC ids can be sparse and thus aren't a valid replacement for VP
indices.
Current KVM uses its internal vcpu index as VP_INDEX. However, to make
it predictable and persistent across VM migrations, the userspace has to
control the value of VP_INDEX.
This patch achieves that, by storing vp_index explicitly on vcpu, and
allowing HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX to be set from the host side. For
compatibility it's initialized to KVM vcpu index. Also a few variables
are renamed to make clear distinction betweed this Hyper-V vp_index and
KVM vcpu_id (== APIC id). Besides, a new capability,
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_VP_INDEX, is added to allow the userspace to skip
attempting msr writes where unsupported, to avoid spamming error logs.

Adds another flag bit (bit 2) to MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN. If bit 2 is 1,
async page faults are delivered to L1 as #PF vmexits; if bit 2 is 0,
kvm_can_do_async_pf returns 0 if in guest mode.
This is similar to what svm.c wanted to do all along, but it is only
enabled for Linux as L1 hypervisor. Foreign hypervisors must never
receive async page faults as vmexits, because they'd probably be very

There is a flaw in the Hyper-V SynIC implementation in KVM: when message
page or event flags page is enabled by setting the corresponding msr,
KVM zeroes it out. This is problematic because on migration the
corresponding MSRs are loaded on the destination, so the content of
those pages is lost.
This went unnoticed so far because the only user of those pages was
in-KVM hyperv synic timers, which could continue working despite that
zeroing.
Newer QEMU uses those pages for Hyper-V VMBus implementation, and
zeroing them breaks the migration.
Besides, in newer QEMU the content of those pages is fully managed by
QEMU, so zeroing them is undesirable even when writing the MSRs from the
guest side.
To support this new scheme, introduce a new capability,
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2, which, when enabled, makes sure that the synic
pages aren't zeroed out in KVM.

The backwards_tsc_observed global introduced in commit 16a9602 is never
reset to false. If a VM happens to be running while the host is suspended
(a common source of the TSC jumping backwards), master clock will never
be enabled again for any VM. In contrast, if no VM is running while the
host is suspended, master clock is unaffected. This is inconsistent and
unnecessarily strict. Let's track the backwards_tsc_observed variable
separately and let each VM start with a clean slate.
Real world impact: My Windows VMs get slower after my laptop undergoes a
suspend/resume cycle. The only way to get the perf back is unloading and
reloading the kvm module.

__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
aggressive reclaim
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
the request is a performance optimization and there is another
fallback for a slow path.
- (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
context with an expensive slow path fallback.
- GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
_default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
(e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
is not invoked.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
won't be triggered.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic. No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

Patch series "mm: give __GFP_REPEAT a better semantic".
The main motivation for the change is that the current implementation of
__GFP_REPEAT is not very much useful.
The documentation says:
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
It just fails to mention that this is true only for large (costly) high
order which has been the case since the flag was introduced. A similar
semantic would be really helpful for smal orders as well, though,
because we have places where a failure with a specific fallback error
handling is preferred to a potential endless loop inside the page
allocator.
The earlier cleanup dropped __GFP_REPEAT usage for low (!costly) order
users so only those which might use larger orders have stayed. One new
user added in the meantime is addressed in patch 1.
Let's rename the flag to something more verbose and use it for existing
users. Semantic for those will not change. Then implement low
(!costly) orders failure path which is hit after the page allocator is
about to invoke the oom killer. With that we have a good counterpart
for __GFP_NORETRY and finally can tell try as hard as possible without
the OOM killer.
Xfs code already has an existing annotation for allocations which are
allowed to fail and we can trivially map them to the new gfp flag
because it will provide the semantic KM_MAYFAIL wants. Christoph didn't
consider the new flag really necessary but didn't respond to the OOM
killer aspect of the change so I have kept the patch. If this is still
seen as not really needed I can drop the patch.
kvmalloc will allow also !costly high order allocations to retry hard
before falling back to the vmalloc.
drm/i915 asked for the new semantic explicitly.
Memory migration code, especially for the memory hotplug, should back
off rather than invoking the OOM killer as well.
This patch (of 6):
Commit 3377e227af44 ("MIPS: Add 48-bit VA space (and 4-level page
tables) for 4K pages.") has added a new __GFP_REPEAT user but using this
flag doesn't really make any sense for order-0 request which is the case
here because PUD_ORDER is 0. __GFP_REPEAT has historically effect only
on allocation requests with order > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.
This doesn't introduce any functional change. This is a preparatory
patch for later work which renames the flag and redefines its semantic.

When RLIMIT_STACK is, for example, 256MB, the current code results in a
gap between the top of the task and mmap_base of 256MB, failing to take
into account the amount by which the stack address was randomized. In
other words, the stack gets less than RLIMIT_STACK space.
Ensure that the gap between the stack and mmap_base always takes stack
randomization and the stack guard gap into account.
