Currently, x86_cache_size is of type int, which makes no sense as we
will never have a valid cache size equal or less than 0. So instead of
initializing this variable to -1, it can perfectly be initialized to 0
and use it as an unsigned variable instead.

flush_tlb_single() and flush_tlb_one() sound almost identical, but
they really mean "flush one user translation" and "flush one kernel
translation". Rename them to flush_tlb_one_user() and
flush_tlb_one_kernel() to make the semantics more obvious.
[ I was looking at some PTI-related code, and the flush-one-address code
is unnecessarily hard to understand because the names of the helpers are
uninformative. This came up during PTI review, but no one got around to
doing it. ]

For architectures providing their own implementation of
array_index_mask_nospec() in asm/barrier.h, attempting to use WARN_ONCE() to
complain about out-of-range parameters using WARN_ON() results in a mess
of mutually-dependent include files.
Rather than unpick the dependencies, simply have the core code in nospec.h
perform the checking for us.

Since the Intel SDM added an ModR/M byte to UD0 and binutils followed
that specification, we now cannot disassemble our kernel anymore.
This now means Intel and AMD disagree on the encoding of UD0. And instead
of playing games with additional bytes that are valid ModR/M and single
byte instructions (0xd6 for instance), simply use UD2 for both WARN() and
BUG().

By default, objtool assumes that a UD2 is a dead end. This is mainly
because GCC 7+ sometimes inserts a UD2 when it detects a divide-by-zero
condition.
Now that WARN() is moving back to UD2, annotate the code after it as
reachable so objtool can follow the code flow.

Peter Zijlstra's patch for converting WARN() to use UD2 triggered a
bunch of false "unreachable instruction" warnings, which then triggered
a seg fault in ignore_unreachable_insn().
The seg fault happened when it tried to dereference a NULL 'insn->func'
pointer. Thanks to static_cpu_has(), some functions can jump to a
non-function area in the .altinstr_aux section. That breaks
ignore_unreachable_insn()'s assumption that it's always inside the
original function.
Make sure ignore_unreachable_insn() only follows jumps within the
current function.

The ldt_gdt and ptrace_syscall selftests, even in their 64-bit variant, use
hard-coded 32-bit syscall numbers and call "int $0x80".
This will fail on 64-bit systems with CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y disabled.
Therefore, do not build these tests if we cannot build 32-bit binaries
(which should be a good approximation for CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y being enabled).

On 64-bit builds, we should not rely on "int $0x80" working (it only does if
CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y is enabled). To keep the "Set TF and check int80"
test running on 64-bit installs with CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y enabled, build
this test only if we can also build 32-bit binaries (which should be a
good approximation for that).

It turns out that commit 3974320ca6 "Implement iomap for block_map"
introduced a few bugs that trigger occasional failures with xfstest
generic/476:
In gfs2_iomap_begin, we jump to do_alloc when we determine that we are
beyond the end of the allocated metadata (height > ip->i_height).
There, we can end up calling hole_size with a metapath that doesn't
match the current metadata tree, which doesn't make sense. After
untangling the code at do_alloc, fix this by checking if the block we
are looking for is within the range of allocated metadata.
In addition, add a BUG() in case gfs2_iomap_begin is accidentally called
for reading stuffed files: this is handled separately. Make sure we
don't truncate iomap->length for reads beyond the end of the file; in
that case, the entire range counts as a hole.
Finally, revert to taking a bitmap write lock when doing allocations.
It's unclear why that change didn't lead to any failures during testing.

In the following commit:
ce0fa3e56ad2 ("x86/mm, mm/hwpoison: Clear PRESENT bit for kernel 1:1 mappings of poison pages")
... we added code to memory_failure() to unmap the page from the
kernel 1:1 virtual address space to avoid speculative access to the
page logging additional errors.
But memory_failure() may not always succeed in taking the page offline,
especially if the page belongs to the kernel. This can happen if
there are too many corrected errors on a page and either mcelog(8)
or drivers/ras/cec.c asks to take a page offline.
Since we remove the 1:1 mapping early in memory_failure(), we can
end up with the page unmapped, but still in use. On the next access
the kernel crashes :-(
There are also various debug paths that call memory_failure() to simulate
occurrence of an error. Since there is no actual error in memory, we
don't need to map out the page for those cases.
Revert most of the previous attempt and keep the solution local to
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c. Unmap the page only when:
1) there is a real error
2) memory_failure() succeeds.
All of this only applies to 64-bit systems. 32-bit kernel doesn't map
all of memory into kernel space. It isn't worth adding the code to unmap
the piece that is mapped because nobody would run a 32-bit kernel on a
machine that has recoverable machine checks.

A test_and_{}_bit() operation fails if the value of the bit is such that
the modification does not take place. For example, if test_and_set_bit()
returns 1. In these cases, follow the behaviour of cmpxchg and allow the
operation to be unordered. This also applies to test_and_set_bit_lock()
if the lock is found to be be taken already.

When queuing on the qspinlock, the count field for the current CPU's head
node is incremented. This needn't be atomic because locking in e.g. IRQ
context is balanced and so an IRQ will return with node->count as it
found it.
However, the compiler could in theory reorder the initialisation of
node[idx] before the increment of the head node->count, causing an
IRQ to overwrite the initialised node and potentially corrupt the lock
state.
Avoid the potential for this harmful compiler reordering by placing a
barrier() between the increment of the head node->count and the subsequent
node initialisation.

When a locker ends up queuing on the qspinlock locking slowpath, we
initialise the relevant mcs node and publish it indirectly by updating
the tail portion of the lock word using xchg_tail. If we find that there
was a pre-existing locker in the queue, we subsequently update their
->next field to point at our node so that we are notified when it's our
turn to take the lock.
This can be roughly illustrated as follows:
/* Initialise the fields in node and encode a pointer to node in tail */
tail = initialise_node(node);
/*
* Exchange tail into the lockword using an atomic read-modify-write
* operation with release semantics
*/
old = xchg_tail(lock, tail);
/* If there was a pre-existing waiter ... */
if (old & _Q_TAIL_MASK) {
prev = decode_tail(old);
smp_read_barrier_depends();
/* ... then update their ->next field to point to node.
WRITE_ONCE(prev->next, node);
}
The conditional update of prev->next therefore relies on the address
dependency from the result of xchg_tail ensuring order against the
prior initialisation of node. However, since the release semantics of
the xchg_tail operation apply only to the write portion of the RmW,
then this ordering is not guaranteed and it is possible for the CPU
to return old before the writes to node have been published, consequently
allowing us to point prev->next to an uninitialised node.
This patch fixes the problem by making the update of prev->next a RELEASE
operation, which also removes the reliance on dependency ordering.

topology_phys_to_logical_pkg(). The warning messesages are
shown because topology_phys_to_logical_pkg() returns -1.
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:
static void uncore_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
...
phys_id = uncore_pcibus_to_physid(pdev->bus);
...
pkg = topology_phys_to_logical_pkg(phys_id); // returns -1
for (i = 0; i < UNCORE_EXTRA_PCI_DEV_MAX; i++) {
if (uncore_extra_pci_dev[pkg].dev[i] == pdev) {
uncore_extra_pci_dev[pkg].dev[i] = NULL;
break;
}
}
WARN_ON_ONCE(i >= UNCORE_EXTRA_PCI_DEV_MAX); // <=========== HERE!!
topology_phys_to_logical_pkg() tries to find
cpuinfo_x86->phys_proc_id that matches the phys_pkg argument.
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c:
int topology_phys_to_logical_pkg(unsigned int phys_pkg)
{
int cpu;
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
struct cpuinfo_x86 *c = &cpu_data(cpu);
if (c->initialized && c->phys_proc_id == phys_pkg)
return c->logical_proc_id;
}
return -1;
}
However, the phys_proc_id was already set to 0 by remove_siblinginfo()
when the CPU was offlined.
So, topology_phys_to_logical_pkg() cannot find the correct
logical_proc_id and always returns -1.
As the result, uncore_pci_remove() calls WARN_ON_ONCE() and the warning
messages are shown.
What is worse is that the bogus 'pkg' index results in two bugs:
- We dereference uncore_extra_pci_dev[] with a negative index
- We fail to clean up a stale pointer in uncore_extra_pci_dev[][]
To fix these bugs, remove the clearing of ->phys_proc_id from remove_siblinginfo().
This should not cause any problems, because ->phys_proc_id is not
used after it is hot-removed and it is re-set while hot-adding.

On powerpc we allocate page table pages from slab caches of different
sizes. Currently we have a constructor that zeroes out the objects when
we allocate them for the first time.
We expect the objects to be zeroed out when we free the the object
back to slab cache. This happens in the unmap path. For hugetlb pages
we call huge_pte_get_and_clear() to do that.
With the current configuration of page table size, both PUD and PGD
level tables are allocated from the same slab cache. At the PUD level,
we use the second half of the table to store the slot information. But
we never clear that when unmapping.
When such a freed object is then allocated for a PGD page, the second
half of the page table page will not be zeroed as expected. This
results in a kernel crash.
Fix it by always clearing PGD pages when they're allocated.

To support memory keys, we moved the hash pte slot information to the
second half of the page table. This was ok with PTE entries at level
4 (PTE page) and level 3 (PMD). We already allocate larger page table
pages at those levels to accomodate extra details. For level 4 we
already have the extra space which was used to track 4k hash page
table entry details and at level 3 the extra space was allocated to
track the THP details.
With hugetlbfs PTE, we used this extra space at the PMD level to store
the slot details. But we also support hugetlbfs PTE at PUD level for
16GB pages and PUD level page didn't allocate extra space. This
resulted in memory corruption.
Fix this by allocating extra space at PUD level when HUGETLB is
enabled.

cp_abort is only required for user windows, because kernel context
must not be preempted between a copy/paste pair.
Without this patch, the init task gets used_vas set when it runs the
nx842_powernv_init initcall, which opens windows for kernel usage.
used_vas is then never cleared anywhere, so it gets propagated into
all other tasks. It's a property of the address space, so it should
really be cleared when a new mm is created (or in dup_mmap if the
mmaps are marked as VM_DONTCOPY). For now we seem to have no such
driver, so leave that for another patch.

Currently if the kernel receives a memory hot-unplug event early
enough, it may get stuck in an infinite loop in
dissolve_free_huge_pages(). This appears as a stall just after:
pseries-hotplug-mem: Attempting to hot-remove XX LMB(s) at YYYYYYYY
It appears to be caused by "minimum_order" being uninitialized, due to
init_ras_IRQ() executing before hugetlb_init().
To correct this, extract the part of init_ras_IRQ() that enables
hotplug event processing and place it in the machine_late_initcall
phase, which is guaranteed to be after hugetlb_init() is called.

Mark noticed that he had sporadic "spinlock recursion" warnings from
the DEBUG_SPINLOCK code. Now rq->lock is special in that the owner
changes in the middle of a context switch.
It so happens that we fix up the lock.owner too late, @prev can run
(remotely) the moment prev->on_cpu is cleared, this then allows @prev
to again try and acquire this rq->lock and trigger this warning.
So we have to switch lock.owner before clearing prev->on_cpu.
Do this by moving the DEBUG_SPINLOCK annotation from after switch_to()
to before switch_to() and collect all lockdep annotations there into
prepare_lock_switch() to mirror the existing finish_lock_switch().

The warning is correct for the build-time code, but it's actually not

call gets replaced with either a SWAPGS instruction or NOPs at runtime.
Go back to the previous behavior by removing the ELF function annotation

Previously, error_entry() and paranoid_entry() saved the GP registers
onto stack space previously allocated by its callers. Combine these two
steps in the callers, and use the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro
for that.
This adds a significant amount ot text size. However, Ingo Molnar points
out that:
"these numbers also _very_ significantly over-represent the
extra footprint. The assumptions that resulted in
us compressing the IRQ entry code have changed very
significantly with the new x86 IRQ allocation code we
introduced in the last year:
- IRQ vectors are usually populated in tightly clustered
groups.
With our new vector allocator code the typical per CPU
allocation percentage on x86 systems is ~3 device vectors
and ~10 fixed vectors out of ~220 vectors - i.e. a very
low ~6% utilization (!). [...]
The days where we allocated a lot of vectors on every
CPU and the compression of the IRQ entry code text
mattered are over.
- Another issue is that only a small minority of vectors
is frequent enough to actually matter to cache utilization
in practice: 3-4 key IPIs and 1-2 device IRQs at most - and
those vectors tend to be tightly clustered as well into about
two groups, and are probably already on 2-3 cache lines in
practice.
For the common case of 'cache cold' IRQs it's the depth of
the call chain and the fragmentation of the resulting I$
that should be the main performance limit - not the overall
size of it.
- The CPU side cost of IRQ delivery is still very expensive
even in the best, most cached case, as in 'over a thousand
cycles'. So much stuff is done that maybe contemporary x86
IRQ entry microcode already prefetches the IDT entry and its
expected call target address."[*]
