2015-04-02perf/x86/intel: Filter branches for PEBS eventKan Liang1-2/+2
For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e88630 ("perf/x86: Add Intel LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT. However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS events. This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of intel_pebs_constraints(). We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and x86_get_event_constraint().

2015-04-02x86/asm/entry/64: Disable opportunistic SYSRET if regs->flags has TF setAndy Lutomirski1-1/+15
When I wrote the opportunistic SYSRET code, I missed an important difference between SYSRET and IRET. Both instructions are capable of setting EFLAGS.TF, but they behave differently when doing so: - IRET will not issue a #DB trap after execution when it sets TF. This is critical -- otherwise you'd never be able to make forward progress when returning to userspace. - SYSRET, on the other hand, will trap with #DB immediately after returning to CPL3, and the next instruction will never execute. This breaks anything that opportunistically SYSRETs to a user context with TF set. For example, running this code with TF set and a SIGTRAP handler loaded never gets past 'post_nop': extern unsigned char post_nop[]; asm volatile ("pushfq\n\t" "popq %%r11\n\t" "nop\n\t" "post_nop:" : : "c" (post_nop) : "r11"); In my defense, I can't find this documented in the AMD or Intel manual. Fix it by using IRET to restore TF.

2015-04-01x86/reboot: Add ASRock Q1900DC-ITX mainboard reboot quirkStefan Lippers-Hollmann1-0/+10
The ASRock Q1900DC-ITX mainboard (Baytrail-D) hangs randomly in both BIOS and UEFI mode while rebooting unless reboot=pci is used. Add a quirk to reboot via the pci method. The problem is very intermittent and hard to debug, it might succeed rebooting just fine 40 times in a row - but fails half a dozen times the next day. It seems to be slightly less common in BIOS CSM mode than native UEFI (with the CSM disabled), but it does happen in either mode. Since I've started testing this patch in late january, rebooting has been 100% reliable. Most of the time it already hangs during POST, but occasionally it might even make it through the bootloader and the kernel might even start booting, but then hangs before the mode switch. The same symptoms occur with grub-efi, gummiboot and grub-pc, just as well as (at least) kernel 3.16-3.19 and 4.0-rc6 (I haven't tried older kernels than 3.16). Upgrading to the most current mainboard firmware of the ASRock Q1900DC-ITX, version 1.20, does not improve the situation. ( Searching the web seems to suggest that other Bay Trail-D mainboards might be affected as well. ) -- Signed-off-by: Stefan Lippers-Hollmann <s.l-h@gmx.de> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150330224427.0fb58e42@mir Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2015-04-01powerpc: fix memory corruption by pnv_alloc_idle_core_statesJan Stancek1-1/+1
Space allocated for paca is based off nr_cpu_ids, but pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() iterates paca with cpu_nr_cores()*threads_per_core, which is using NR_CPUS. This causes pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() to write over memory, which is outside of paca array and may later lead to various panics.

2015-03-26ARC: SA_SIGINFO ucontext regs off-by-oneVineet Gupta1-2/+2
The regfile provided to SA_SIGINFO signal handler as ucontext was off by one due to pt_regs gutter cleanups in 2013. Before handling signal, user pt_regs are copied onto user_regs_struct and copied back later. Both structs are binary compatible. This was all fine until commit 2fa919045b72 (ARC: pt_regs update #2) which removed the empty stack slot at top of pt_regs (corresponding to first pad) and made the corresponding fixup in struct user_regs_struct (the pad in there was moved out of @scratch - not removed altogether as it is part of ptrace ABI) struct user_regs_struct { + long pad; struct { - long pad; long bta, lp_start, lp_end,.... } scratch; ... } This meant that now user_regs_struct was off by 1 reg w.r.t pt_regs and signal code needs to user_regs_struct.scratch to reflect it as pt_regs, which is what this commit does. This problem was hidden for 2 years, because both save/restore, despite using wrong location, were using the same location. Only an interim inspection (reproducer below) exposed the issue. void handle_segv(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context) { ucontext_t *uc = context; struct user_regs_struct *regs = &(uc->uc_mcontext.regs); printf("regs %x %x\n", <=== prints 7 8 (vs. 8 9) regs->scratch.r8, regs->scratch.r9); } int main() { struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_sigaction = handle_segv; sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO; sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask); sigaction(SIGSEGV, &sa, NULL); asm volatile( "mov r7, 7 \n" "mov r8, 8 \n" "mov r9, 9 \n" "mov r10, 10 \n" :::"r7","r8","r9","r10"); *((unsigned int*)0x10) = 0; } Fixes: 2fa919045b72ec892e "ARC: pt_regs update #2: Remove unused gutter at start of pt_regs" CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
