In commit 76624175dcae ("arm64: uaccess: consistently check object sizes"),
the object size checks are moved outside the access_ok() so that bad
destinations are detected before hitting the "memset(dest, 0, size)" in the
copy_from_user() failure path.
This makes the same change for arm, with attention given to possibly
extracting the uaccess routines into a common header file for all
architectures in the future.

Make cntvoff per each timer context. This is helpful to abstract kvm
timer functions to work with timer context without considering timer
types (e.g. physical timer or virtual timer).
This also would pave the way for ever doing adjustments of the cntvoff
on a per-CPU basis if that should ever make sense.

Both of these options are poorly named. The features they provide are
necessary for system security and should not be considered debug only.
Change the names to CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX to better describe what these options do.

cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:
* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
* s390
And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.
A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
remove include/linux/cputime.h .

Now that we unconditionally flush newly mapped pages to the PoC,
there is no need to care about the "uncached" status of individual
pages - they must all be visible all the way down.

When we fault in a page, we flush it to the PoC (Point of Coherency)
if the faulting vcpu has its own caches off, so that it can observe
the page we just brought it.
But if the vcpu has its caches on, we skip that step. Bad things
happen when *another* vcpu tries to access that page with its own
caches disabled. At that point, there is no garantee that the
data has made it to the PoC, and we access stale data.
The obvious fix is to always flush to PoC when a page is faulted
in, no matter what the state of the vcpu is.

Due to the way kbuild works, this header was unintentionally exported
back in 2013 when it was created, despite it not being in a uapi/
directory. This is very non-intuitive behaviour by Kbuild.
However, we've had this include exported to userland for almost four
years, and searching google for "ARM types.h __UINTPTR_TYPE__" gives
no hint that anyone has complained about it. So, let's make it
officially exported in this state.

Current KVM world switch code is unintentionally setting wrong bits to
CNTHCTL_EL2 when E2H == 1, which may allow guest OS to access physical
timer. Bit positions of CNTHCTL_EL2 are changing depending on
HCR_EL2.E2H bit. EL1PCEN and EL1PCTEN are 1st and 0th bits when E2H is
not set, but they are 11th and 10th bits respectively when E2H is set.
In fact, on VHE we only need to set those bits once, not for every world
switch. This is because the host kernel runs in EL2 with HCR_EL2.TGE ==
1, which makes those bits have no effect for the host kernel execution.
So we just set those bits once for guests, and that's it.

On APQ8060, the kernel crashes in arch_hw_breakpoint_init, taking an
undefined instruction trap within write_wb_reg. This is because Scorpion
CPUs erroneously appear to set DBGPRSR.SPD when WFI is issued, even if
the core is not powered down. When DBGPRSR.SPD is set, breakpoint and
watchpoint registers are treated as undefined.
It's possible to trigger similar crashes later on from userspace, by
requesting the kernel to install a breakpoint or watchpoint, as we can
go idle at any point between the reset of the debug registers and their
later use. This has always been the case.
Given that this has always been broken, no-one has complained until now,
and there is no clear workaround, disable hardware breakpoints and
watchpoints on Scorpion to avoid these issues.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.
The major parts of this pull request is:
- Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
private implementation instead of using the pig that is
fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.
- Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
writeback queue throttling code.
- Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.
- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.
- Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
and Shaun.
- Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.
- Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
Christoph.
- A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
stopping and starting in blk-mq.
- Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.

Now that we check for page size change early in the loop, we can
partially revert e9d55e157034a ("mm: change the interface for
__tlb_remove_page").
This simplies the code much, by removing the need to track the last
address with which we adjusted the range. We also go back to the older
way of filling the mmu_gather array, ie, we add an entry and then check
whether the gather batch is full.

With commit e77b0852b551 ("mm/mmu_gather: track page size with mmu
gather and force flush if page size change") we added the ability to
force a tlb flush when the page size change in a mmu_gather loop. We
did that by checking for a page size change every time we added a page
to mmu_gather for lazy flush/remove. We can improve that by moving the
page size change check early and not doing it every time we add a page.
This also helps us to do tlb flush when invalidating a range covering
dax mapping. Wrt dax mapping we don't have a backing struct page and
hence we don't call tlb_remove_page, which earlier forced the tlb flush
on page size change. Moving the page size change check earlier means we
will do the same even for dax mapping.
We also avoid doing this check on architecture other than powerpc.
In a later patch we will remove page size check from tlb_remove_page().

ARM and arm64 Xen ports share a number of headers, leading to
packaging issues when these headers needs to be exported, as it
breaks the reasonable requirement that an architecture port
has self-contained headers.
Fix the issue by moving the 5 header files to include/xen/arm,
and keep local placeholders to include the relevant files.

"This resolves the ksyms issues by reverting the commit which
introduced the breakage"
There was what I consider to be a better fix, but it's late in the rc
game, so I'll take the revert.
* 'fixes' of git://git.armlinux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm:
Revert "arm: move exports to definitions"
|
|
This reverts commit 4dd1837d7589f468ed109556513f476e7a7f9121.
Moving the exports for assembly code into the assembly files breaks
KSYM trimming, but also breaks modversions.
While fixing the KSYM trimming is trivial, fixing modversions brings
us to a technically worse position that we had prior to the above
change:
- We end up with the prototype definitions divorsed from everything
else, which means that adding or removing assembly level ksyms
become more fragile:
* if adding a new assembly ksyms export, a missed prototype in
asm-prototypes.h results in a successful build if no module in
the selected configuration makes use of the symbol.
* when removing a ksyms export, asm-prototypes.h will get forgotten,
with armksyms.c, you'll get a build error if you forget to touch
the file.
- We end up with the same amount of include files and prototypes,
they're just in a header file instead of a .c file with their
exports.
As for lines of code, we don't get much of a size reduction:

47 files changed, 131 insertions(+), 208 deletions(-)
(fix for ksyms trimming)
7 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
(two fixes for modversions)
1 file changed, 34 insertions(+)
3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
which results in a net total of only 25 lines deleted.
As there does not seem to be much benefit from this change of approach,
revert the change.

No need to duplicate the same define everywhere. Since
the only user is stop-machine and the only provider is
s390, we can use a default implementation of cpu_relax_yield()
in sched.h.

For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

We already have a macro to invoke boot services which on x86 adapts
automatically to the bitness of the EFI firmware: efi_call_early().
The macro allows sharing of functions across arches and bitness variants
as long as those functions only call boot services. However in practice
functions in the EFI stub contain a mix of boot services calls and
protocol calls.
Add an efi_call_proto() macro for bitness-agnostic protocol calls to
allow sharing more code across arches as well as deduplicating 32 bit
and 64 bit code paths.
On x86, implement it using a new efi_table_attr() macro for bitness-
agnostic table lookups. Refactor efi_call_early() to make use of the
same macro. (The resulting object code remains identical.)

single CPU
Architecturally, TLBs are private to the (physical) CPU they're
associated with. But when multiple vcpus from the same VM are
being multiplexed on the same CPU, the TLBs are not private
to the vcpus (and are actually shared across the VMID).
Let's consider the following scenario:
- vcpu-0 maps PA to VA
- vcpu-1 maps PA' to VA
If run on the same physical CPU, vcpu-1 can hit TLB entries generated
by vcpu-0 accesses, and access the wrong physical page.
The solution to this is to keep a per-VM map of which vcpu ran last
on each given physical CPU, and invalidate local TLBs when switching
to a different vcpu from the same VM.

Wire up the new pkey syscalls for ARM.
Signed-off-by: Russell King <[email protected]>

Convert ARM to use a similar mechanism to x86 to generate the unistd.h
system call numbers and the various kernel system call tables. This
means that rather than having to edit three places (asm/unistd.h for
the total number of system calls, uapi/asm/unistd.h for the system call
numbers, and arch/arm/kernel/calls.S for the call table) we have only
one place to edit, making the process much more simple.
The scripts have knowledge of the table padding requirements, so there's
no need to worry about __NR_syscalls not fitting within the immediate
constant field of ALU instructions anymore.
