git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen Pull a Xen fix from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "It is a bug-fix when we run the initial PV guest on a AMD K8 machine and have CONFIG_AMD_NUMA enabled and detect the NUMA topology from the Northbridge. We end up in the situation where the initial domain gets too much information and gets confused and crashes - the fix is to restrict the domain to get the information - and we do it by just disabling NUMA on the PV guest (the hypervisor is still able to do its proper NUMA allocations of guests). It is OK to disable the PV guest from accessing NUMA data as right now we do not inject any NUMA node information to the PV guests. When we do get to that point, then this patch will have to be reverted." * Disable PV NUMA support as we do not do anything with it (yet) and it can cause bootup crashes on certain AMD machines. * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc7-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests.
2012-09-24xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those patches are not yet present. In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says: "we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA). This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see. This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class) We have this dump then: NUMA: Warning: node ids are out of bound, from=-1 to=-1 distance=10 Scanning NUMA topology in Northbridge 24 Number of physical nodes 4 Node 0 MemBase 0000000000000000 Limit 0000000040000000 Node 1 MemBase 0000000040000000 Limit 0000000138000000 Node 2 MemBase 0000000138000000 Limit 00000001f8000000 Node 3 MemBase 00000001f8000000 Limit 0000000238000000 Initmem setup node 0 0000000000000000-0000000040000000 NODE_DATA [000000003ffd9000 - 000000003fffffff] Initmem setup node 1 0000000040000000-0000000138000000 NODE_DATA [0000000137fd9000 - 0000000137ffffff] Initmem setup node 2 0000000138000000-00000001f8000000 NODE_DATA [00000001f095e000 - 00000001f0984fff] Initmem setup node 3 00000001f8000000-0000000238000000 Cannot find 159744 bytes in node 3 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<ffffffff81d220e6>] __alloc_bootmem_node+0x43/0x96 Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.3.6 #1 AMD Dinar/Dinar RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81d220e6>] [<ffffffff81d220e6>] __alloc_bootmem_node+0x43/0x96 .. snip..

While building the SUSE kernel packages, which build the scripts, make clean, and then build everything, we have been running into spurious build failures.

2012-09-19xen/boot: Disable BIOS SMP MP table search.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
As the initial domain we are able to search/map certain regions of memory to harvest configuration data. For all low-level we use ACPI tables - for interrupts we use exclusively ACPI _PRT (so DSDT) and MADT for INT_SRC_OVR. The SMP MP table is not used at all. As a matter of fact we do not even support machines that only have SMP MP but no ACPI tables. Lets follow how Moorestown does it and just disable searching for BIOS SMP tables. This also fixes an issue on HP Proliant BL680c G5 and DL380 G6: 9f->100 for 1:1 PTE Freeing 9f-100 pfn range: 97 pages freed 1-1 mapping on 9f->100 .. snip.. e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: Xen: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009efff] usable Xen: [mem 0x000000000009f400-0x00000000000fffff] reserved Xen: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000cfd1dfff] usable .. snip..

Since 0x100 is actually a RAM page, and the _PAGE_IOMAP bypasses the P2M lookup we would happily set the PTE to 1000461. Xen would deny the request since we do not have access to the Machine Frame Number (MFN) of 0x100. The P2M[0x100] is for example 0x80140.

2012-09-12xen/m2p: do not reuse kmap_op->dev_bus_addrStefano Stabellini
If the caller passes a valid kmap_op to m2p_add_override, we use kmap_op->dev_bus_addr to store the original mfn, but dev_bus_addr is part of the interface with Xen and if we are batching the hypercalls it might not have been written by the hypervisor yet. That means that later on Xen will write to it and we'll think that the original mfn is actually what Xen has written to it. Rather than "stealing" struct members from kmap_op, keep using page->index to store the original mfn and add another parameter to m2p_remove_override to get the corresponding kmap_op instead. It is now responsibility of the caller to keep track of which kmap_op corresponds to a particular page in the m2p_override (gntdev, the only user of this interface that passes a valid kmap_op, is already doing that).

2012-08-27perf/x86: Fix microcode revision check for SNB-PEBSStephane Eranian
The following patch makes the microcode update code path actually invoke the perf_check_microcode() function and thus potentially renabling SNB PEBS. By default, CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE is forced to Y in arch/x86/Kconfig. There is no way to disable this. That means that the code path used in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c did not include the call to perf_check_microcode(). Thus, even though the microcode was updated to a version that fixes the SNB PEBS problem, perf_event would still return EOPNOTSUPP when enabling precise sampling. This patch simply adds a call to perf_check_microcode() in the call path used when OLD_INTERFACE=y.

2012-08-23xen/setup: Fix one-off error when adding for-balloon PFNs to the P2M.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
When we are finished with return PFNs to the hypervisor, then populate it back, and also mark the E820 MMIO and E820 gaps as IDENTITY_FRAMEs, we then call P2M to set areas that can be used for ballooning. We were off by one, and ended up over-writting a P2M entry that most likely was an IDENTITY_FRAME. For example: 1-1 mapping on 40000->40200 1-1 mapping on bc558->bc5ac 1-1 mapping on bc5b4->bc8c5 1-1 mapping on bc8c6->bcb7c 1-1 mapping on bcd00->100000 Released 614 pages of unused memory Set 277889 page(s) to 1-1 mapping Populating 40200-40466 pfn range: 614 pages added => here we set from 40466 up to bc559 P2M tree to be INVALID_P2M_ENTRY. We should have done it up to bc558. The end result is that if anybody is trying to construct a PTE for PFN bc558 they end up with ~PAGE_PRESENT.

Commit be62adb49294 ("x86, microcode, AMD: Simplify ucode verification") added current_size in get_matching_microcode(). This is calculated as size of the ucode patch + 8 (ie. size of the header).

2012-08-22KVM: x86 emulator: use stack size attribute to mask rsp in stack opsAvi Kivity
The sub-register used to access the stack (sp, esp, or rsp) is not determined by the address size attribute like other memory references, but by the stack segment's B bit (if not in x86_64 mode). Fix by using the existing stack_mask() to figure out the correct mask. This long-existing bug was exposed by a combination of a27685c33acccce (emulate invalid guest state by default), which causes many more instructions to be emulated, and a seabios change (possibly a bug) which causes the high 16 bits of esp to become polluted across calls to real mode software interrupts.

Although the possible race described in commit 85b7059169e128c57a3a8a3e588fb89cb2031da1 KVM: MMU: fix shrinking page from the empty mmu was correct, the real cause of that issue was a more trivial bug of mmu_shrink() introduced by commit 1952639665e92481c34c34c3e2a71bf3e66ba362 KVM: MMU: do not iterate over all VMs in mmu_shrink() Here is the bug: if (kvm->arch.n_used_mmu_pages > 0) { if (!nr_to_scan--) break; continue; } We skip VMs whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero and try to shrink others: in other words we try to shrink empty ones by mistake. This patch reverses the logic so that mmu_shrink() can free pages from the first VM whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero.

But for some systems (such as in Medfield Android mobile) the firmware sends the interrupt to each CPU in the irq affinity mask, averaged, and cpu_all_mask includes all potential CPUs, i.e. offline ones as well.

2012-08-21mm: hugetlbfs: correctly populate shared pmdMichal Hocko
Each page mapped in a process's address space must be correctly accounted for in _mapcount. Normally the rules for this are straightforward but hugetlbfs page table sharing is different. The page table pages at the PMD level are reference counted while the mapcount remains the same. If this accounting is wrong, it causes bugs like this one reported by Larry Woodman: kernel BUG at mm/filemap.c:135! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU 22 Modules linked in: bridge stp llc sunrpc binfmt_misc dcdbas microcode pcspkr acpi_pad acpi] Pid: 18001, comm: mpitest Tainted: G W 3.3.0+ #4 Dell Inc.

The logic is if the PMD page is the same, they must be shared. This assumes that the sharing is between the parent and child. However, if the sharing is with a different process entirely then this check fails as in this diagram: parent | ------------>pmd src_pte----------> data page ^ other--------->pmd--------------------| ^ child-----------| dst_pte For this situation to occur, it must be possible for Parent and Other to have faulted and failed to share page tables with each other. This is possible due to the following style of race. PROC A PROC B copy_hugetlb_page_range copy_hugetlb_page_range src_pte == huge_pte_offset src_pte == huge_pte_offset !src_pte so no sharing !src_pte so no sharing (time passes) hugetlb_fault hugetlb_fault huge_pte_alloc huge_pte_alloc huge_pmd_share huge_pmd_share LOCK(i_mmap_mutex) find nothing, no sharing UNLOCK(i_mmap_mutex) LOCK(i_mmap_mutex) find nothing, no sharing UNLOCK(i_mmap_mutex) pmd_alloc pmd_alloc LOCK(instantiation_mutex) fault UNLOCK(instantiation_mutex) LOCK(instantiation_mutex) fault UNLOCK(instantiation_mutex) These two processes are not poing to the same data page but are not sharing page tables because the opportunity was missed. When either process later forks, the src_pte == dst pte is potentially insufficient. As the check falls through, the wrong PTE information is copied in (harmless but wrong) and the mapcount is bumped for a page mapped by a shared page table leading to the BUG_ON. This patch addresses the issue by moving pmd_alloc into huge_pmd_share which guarantees that the shared pud is populated in the same critical section as pmd. This also means that huge_pte_offset test in huge_pmd_share is serialized correctly now which in turn means that the success of the sharing will be higher as the racing tasks see the pud and pmd populated together.

2012-08-18x32: Use compat shims for {g,s}etsockoptMike Frysinger
Some of the arguments to {g,s}etsockopt are passed in userland pointers. If we try to use the 64bit entry point, we end up sometimes failing. For example, dhcpcd doesn't run in x32: # dhcpcd eth0 dhcpcd[1979]: version 5.5.6 starting dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: broadcasting for a lease dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: open_socket: Invalid argument dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: send_raw_packet: Bad file descriptor The code in particular is getting back EINVAL when doing: struct sock_fprog pf; setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_FILTER, &pf, sizeof(pf)); Diving into the kernel code, we can see: include/linux/filter.h: struct sock_fprog { unsigned short len; struct sock_filter __user *filter; }; net/core/sock.c: case SO_ATTACH_FILTER: ret = -EINVAL; if (optlen == sizeof(struct sock_fprog)) { struct sock_fprog fprog; ret = -EFAULT; if (copy_from_user(&fprog, optval, sizeof(fprog))) break; ret = sk_attach_filter(&fprog, sk); } break; arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl: 54 common setsockopt sys_setsockopt 55 common getsockopt sys_getsockopt So for x64, sizeof(sock_fprog) is 16 bytes. For x86/x32, it's 8 bytes. This comes down to the pointer being 32bit for x32, which means we need to do structure size translation. But since x32 comes in directly to sys_setsockopt, it doesn't get translated like x86. After changing the syscall table and rebuilding glibc with the new kernel headers, dhcp runs fine in an x32 userland. Oddly, it seems like Linus noted the same thing during the initial port, but I guess that was missed/lost along the way: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/26/452 [ hpa: tagging for -stable since this is an ABI fix. ] Bugzilla: https://bugs.gentoo.org/423649 Reported-by: Mads <mads@ab3.no> Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1345320697-15713-1-git-send-email-vapier@gentoo.org Cc: H.

2012-08-14x86, apic: fix broken legacy interrupts in the logical apic modeSuresh Siddha
Recent commit 332afa656e76458ee9cf0f0d123016a0658539e4 cleaned up a workaround that updates irq_cfg domain for legacy irq's that are handled by the IO-APIC. This was assuming that the recent changes in assign_irq_vector() were sufficient to remove the workaround. But this broke couple of AMD platforms. One of them seems to be sending interrupts to the offline cpu's, resulting in spurious "No irq handler for vector xx (irq -1)" messages when those cpu's come online. And the other platform seems to always send the interrupt to the last logical CPU (cpu-7). Recent changes had an unintended side effect of using only logical cpu-0 in the IO-APIC RTE (during boot for the legacy interrupts) and this broke the legacy interrupts not getting routed to the cpu-7 on the AMD platform, resulting in a boot hang. For now, reintroduce the removed workaround, (essentially not allowing the vector to change for legacy irq's when io-apic starts to handle the irq. Which also addressed the uninteded sife effect of just specifying cpu-0 in the IO-APIC RTE for those irq's during boot).

[ hpa: Notably the Android toolchain apparently does this. ] Change-Id: Iaab7d66e598b1c65ac4a4f0229eca2cd3d0d2898 Signed-off-by: Andrew Boie <andrew.p.boie@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1344624546-29691-1-git-send-email-andrew.p.boie@intel.com Signed-off-by: H.

2012-08-08x86, avx: don't use avx instructions with "noxsave" boot paramSuresh Siddha
Clear AVX, AVX2 features along with clearing XSAVE feature bits, as part of the parsing "noxsave" parameter. Fixes the kernel boot panic with "noxsave" boot parameter. We could have checked cpu_has_osxsave along with cpu_has_avx etc, but Peter mentioned clearing the feature bits will be better for uses like static_cpu_has() etc. Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1343755754.2041.2.camel@sbsiddha-desk.sc.intel.com Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v3.5 Signed-off-by: H.
