We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
asm-generic/barrier.h.
Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.
There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.

Helge Deller noted a few weeks ago problems with the AIO support on
parisc. This change is the result of numerous iterations on how best to
deal with this problem.
The solution adopted here is to provide full cache coherency in a
uniform manner on all parisc systems. This involves calling
flush_dcache_page() on kmap operations and flush_kernel_dcache_page() on
kunmap operations. As a result, the copy_user_page() and
clear_user_page() functions can be removed and the overall code is
simpler.
The change ensures that both userspace and kernel aliases to a mapped
page are invalidated and flushed. This is necessary for the correct
operation of PA8800 and PA8900 based systems which do not support
inequivalent aliases.
With this change, I have observed no cache related issues on c8000 and
rp3440. It is now possible for example to do kernel builds with "-j64"
on four way systems.
On systems using XFS file systems, the patch recently posted by Mikulas
Patocka to "fix crash using XFS on loopback" is needed to avoid a hang
caused by an uninitialized lock passed to flush_dcache_page() in the
page struct.

When building a 64bit kernel sometimes functions in the .init section were not
able to reach the standard kernel function. Main reason for this problem is,
that the linkage tables (.plt, .opd, .dlt) tend to become pretty huge and thus
the distance gets too big for short calls.
One option to avoid this is to use the -mlong-calls compiler option, but this
increases the binary size and introduces a performance penalty.
Instead, with this patch we just lay out the binary differently. Init code is
stored first, followed by text, R/O and finally R/W data. This means, that init
and text code is now much closer to each other, which is sufficient to reach
each other by short calls.

locale-gen on Debian showed a strange problem on parisc:
mmap2(NULL, 536870912, PROT_NONE, MAP_SHARED, 3, 0) = 0x42a54000
mmap2(0x42a54000, 103860, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
Basically it was just trying to re-mmap() a file at the same address
which it was given by a previous mmap() call. But this remapping failed
with EINVAL.
The problem is, that when MAP_FIXED and MAP_SHARED flags were used, we didn't
included the mapping-based offset when we verified the alignment of the given
fixed address against the offset which we calculated it in the previous call.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware
firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.
At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
(arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.
Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and
therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
byte codes to do such lookups.
Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.
Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation,
one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
this is very expensive.
Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
new stuff.
Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
worked so hard on this.
2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.
In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
cases are added.
3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
and Yang Yingliang.
4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
Sujir.
5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.
6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
From Francesco Fusco.
7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn
Bohrer.
10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able
to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet.
11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang
Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
Falico.
12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental
operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.
Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
our generic flow dissector.
14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned
up in this way, from Jingoo Han.
15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel
Borkmann.
17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
(re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang.

Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were
not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the
kernel. The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g.
J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened
when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted.
In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial:
During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch
CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called.
It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and
one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task
thread info pointer.
Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been
detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for
%cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly
turned zero after the firmware call.
So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes
became clear:
- On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this
problem.
- Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task
thread info pointer was below 4GB.
- Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because
the upper 32bit were zero anyay.
- Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread
info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary.
Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register
before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards.

Running an "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger" crashes the parisc kernel. The
problem is, that in print_worker_info() we try to read the workqueue info via
the probe_kernel_read() functions which use pagefault_disable() to avoid
crashes like this:
probe_kernel_read(&pwq, &worker->current_pwq, sizeof(pwq));
probe_kernel_read(&wq, &pwq->wq, sizeof(wq));
probe_kernel_read(name, wq->name, sizeof(name) - 1);
The problem here is, that the first probe_kernel_read(&pwq) might return zero
in pwq and as such the following probe_kernel_reads() try to access contents of
the page zero which is read protected and generate a kernel segfault.
With this patch we fix the interruption handler to call parisc_terminate()
directly only if pagefault_disable() was not called (in which case
preempt_count()==0). Otherwise we hand over to the pagefault handler which
will try to look up the faulting address in the fixup tables.

As mentioned in commit afe4fd0624 ("pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet
scheduler"), this patch adds a new socket option.
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE offers the application the ability to cap the
rate computed by transport layer. Value is in bytes per second.
u32 val = 1000000;
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_MAX_PACING_RATE, &val, sizeof(val));
To be effectively paced, a flow must use FQ packet scheduler.
Note that a packet scheduler takes into account the headers for its
computations. The effective payload rate depends on MSS and retransmits
if any.
I chose to make this pacing rate a SOL_SOCKET option instead of a
TCP one because this can be used by other protocols.

We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry,
because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even
wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is
contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the
iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt
input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching
for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.

The parisc architecture does not have a pte special bit. As a result,
special mappings are handled with the VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP flags.
VM_MIXEDMAP mappings may or may not have a "struct page" backing. When
pfn_valid() is false, there is no "struct page" backing. Otherwise, they
are treated as normal pages.
The FireGL driver uses the VM_MIXEDMAP without a backing "struct page".
This treatment caused a panic due to a TLB data miss in
update_mmu_cache. This appeared to be in the code generated for
page_address(). We were in fact using a very circular bit of code to
determine the physical address of the PFN in various cache routines.
This wasn't valid when there was no "struct page" backing. The needed
address can in fact be determined simply from the PFN itself without
using the "struct page".
The attached patch updates update_mmu_cache(), flush_cache_mm(),
flush_cache_range() and flush_cache_page() to check pfn_valid() and to
directly compute the PFN physical and virtual addresses.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the parisc uses of the __cpuinit macros.

Reason for this crash is a gcc miscompilation in the fault handlers of
pa_memcpy() which return the fault address instead of the copied bytes.
Since this seems to be a generic problem with gcc-4.7.x (and below), it's
better to simplify the fault handlers in pa_memcpy to avoid this problem.
Here is a simple reproducer for the problem:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd, nbytes;
struct iovec wr_iovec[] = {
{ "TEST STRING ",32},
{ (char*)0x40005000,32} }; // random memory.
fd = open(DATA_FILE, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666);
nbytes = writev(fd, wr_iovec, 2);
printf("return value = %d, errno %d (%s)\n",
nbytes, errno, strerror(errno));
return 0;
}
In addition, John David Anglin wrote:
There is no gcc PR as pa_memcpy is not legitimate C code. There is an
implicit assumption that certain variables will contain correct values

exception blocks. There is no guarantee of this. If a PR was filed, it
would likely be marked as invalid.

I still see the occasional random segv on rp3440. Looking at one of
these (a code 15), it appeared the problem must be with the cache
handling of anonymous pages. Reviewing this, I noticed that the space
register %sr1 might be being clobbered when we flush an anonymous page.
Register %sr1 is used for TLB purges in a couple of places. These
purges are needed on PA8800 and PA8900 processors to ensure cache
consistency of flushed cache lines.
The solution here is simply to move the %sr1 load into the TLB lock
region needed to ensure that one purge executes at a time on SMP
systems. This was already the case for one use. After a few days of
operation, I haven't had a random segv on my rp3440.

This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up

Original posting:

Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options.
They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly
differing help text.
This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig
boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug

Concentrate code to modify totalram_pages into the mm core, so the arch
memory initialized code doesn't need to take care of it. With these
changes applied, only following functions from mm core modify global
variable totalram_pages: free_bootmem_late(), free_all_bootmem(),
free_all_bootmem_node(), adjust_managed_page_count().
With this patch applied, it will be much more easier for us to keep
totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages in consistence.

Address more review comments from last round of code review.
1) Enhance free_reserved_area() to support poisoning freed memory with
pattern '0'. This could be used to get rid of poison_init_mem()
on ARM64.
2) A previous patch has disabled memory poison for initmem on s390
by mistake, so restore to the original behavior.
3) Remove redundant PAGE_ALIGN() when calling free_reserved_area().

New method - ->iterate(file, ctx). That's the replacement for ->readdir();
it takes callback from ctx->actor, uses ctx->pos instead of file->f_pos and
calls dir_emit(ctx, ...) instead of filldir(data, ...). It does *not*
update file->f_pos (or look at it, for that matter); iterate_dir() does the
update.
Note that dir_emit() takes the offset from ctx->pos (and eventually
filldir_t will lose that argument).

'path.bc[i]' can be asigned by PCI_SLOT() which can '> 10', so sizeof(6

Since 'name' length is 20, it may be memory overflow.
And 'path.bc[i]' is 'unsigned char' for printing, we can be sure the
max length of 'name' must be less than 28.
So simplify thinking, we can use 28 instead of 20 directly, and do not

The logic to detect if the irq stack was already in use with
raw_spin_trylock() is wrong, because it will generate a "trylock failure
on UP" error message with CONFIG_SMP=n and CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y.
arch_spin_trylock() can't be used either since in the CONFIG_SMP=n case
no atomic protection is given and we are reentrant here. A mutex didn't
worked either and brings more overhead by turning off interrupts.
So, let's use the fastest path for parisc which is the ldcw instruction.
Counting how often the irq stack was used is pretty useless, so just
drop this piece of code.
Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
The get_stack_use_cr30 and get_stack_use_r30 macros allocate a stack
frame for external interrupts and interruptions requiring a stack frame.
They are currently not reentrant in that they save register context
before the stack is set or adjusted.
I have observed a number of system crashes where there was clear
evidence of stack corruption during interrupt processing, and as a
result register corruption. Some interruptions can still occur during
interruption processing, however external interrupts are disabled and
data TLB misses don't occur for absolute accesses. So, it's not entirely
clear what triggers this issue. Also, if an interruption occurs when
Q=0, it is generally not possible to recover as the shadowed registers
are not copied.
The attached patch reworks the get_stack_use_cr30 and get_stack_use_r30
macros to allocate stack before doing register saves. The new code is a
couple of instructions shorter than the old implementation. Thus, it's
an improvement even if it doesn't fully resolve the stack corruption
issue. Based on limited testing, it improves SMP system stability.

Currently, race conditions exist in the handling of TLB interruptions in
entry.S. In particular, dirty bit updates can be lost if an accessed
interruption occurs just after the dirty bit interruption on a different
cpu. Lost dirty bit updates result in user pages not being flushed and
general system instability. This change adds lock and unlock macros to
synchronize all PTE and TLB updates done in entry.S. As a result,
userspace stability is significantly improved.

This patch fixes few build issues which were introduced with the last
irq stack patch, e.g. the combination of stack overflow check and irq
stack.
Furthermore we now do proper locking and change the irq bh handler
to use the irq stack as well.
In /proc/interrupts one now can monitor how huge the irq stack has grown
and how often it was preferred over the kernel stack.
IRQ stacks are now enabled by default just to make sure that we not
overflow the kernel stack by accident.

which is being used during irq processing. This implementation does not yet
uses this irq stack for the irq bh handler.
The assembler code for call_on_stack was heavily cleaned up by John
David Anglin.

Add the CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW config option to enable checks to
detect kernel stack overflows.
Stack overflows can not be detected reliable since we do not want to
introduce too much overhead.
Instead, during irq processing in do_cpu_irq_mask() we check kernel
stack usage of the interrupted kernel process. Kernel threads can be
easily detected by checking the value of space register 7 (sr7) which
is zero when running inside the kernel.
Since THREAD_SIZE is 16k and PAGE_SIZE is 4k, reduce the alignment of
the init thread to the lower value (PAGE_SIZE) in the kernel
vmlinux.ld.S linker script.

Helge and I have found that we have a kernel stack overflow problem
which causes a variety of random failures.
Currently, we re-enable interrupts when returning from an external
interrupt incase we need to schedule or delivery
signals. As a result, a potentially unlimited number of interrupts
can occur while we are running on the kernel
stack. It is very limited in space (currently, 16k). This change
defers enabling interrupts until we have
actually decided to schedule or delivery signals. This only occurs
when we about to return to userspace. This
limits the number of interrupts on the kernel stack to one. In other
cases, interrupts remain disabled until the
final return from interrupt (rfi).

This patch fixes partly PAGE_SIZEs of 16K or 64K by adjusting the
assembler PTE lookup code and the assembler TEMPALIAS code. Furthermore
some data alignments for PAGE_SIZE have been limited to 4K (or less) to
not waste too much memory with greater page sizes. As a side note, the
palo loader can (currently) only handle up to 10 ELF segments which is
fixed with tighter aligning as well.
My testings indicated that the ldci command in the sba iommu coding
needed adjustment by the PAGE_SHIFT value and that the I/O PDIR Page
size was only set to 4K for my machine (C3000).
All this fixes partly the boot, but there are still quite some caching
problems left. Examples are e.g. the symbios logic driver which is
failing:
sym0: <896> rev 0x7 at pci 0000:00:0f.0 irq 69
sym0: PA-RISC Firmware, ID 7, Fast-40, SE, parity checking
CACHE TEST FAILED: DMA error (dstat=0x81).sym0: CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED.
and the tulip network driver which doesn't seem to work correctly
either:
Sending BOOTP requests .net eth0: Setting full-duplex based on MII#1
link partner capability of 05e1
..... timed out!
Beside those kernel fixes glibc will need fixes too to be able to handle
>4K page sizes.

s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.
To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
this config.
Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an
architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.
While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.
show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.
* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.
alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
um, xtensa
* Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
The printed information is superset of what used to be there.
arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86
* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
Converted to use the generic version.
Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.

Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each
architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the
current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints
extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the
backtrace while the two are identical on other archs.
The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate
show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while
dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong,
so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which
triggered dump_stack().
There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly
identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information.
This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in
lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from
x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific
dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's
dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand.
Debug information can be printed separately by calling
dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack()
implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used
in blackfin.
This patch brings the following behavior changes.
* On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be
printed. This is because the top frame was determined in
dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that
reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not
sure whether that'd be necessary.
* Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do
now.
An example WARN dump follows.

v2: CPU number added to the generic debug info as requested by s390
folks and dropped the s390 specific dump_stack(). This loses %ksp
from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important
enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation.
dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from
lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file,
dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic
dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack()
- at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info()
as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1
The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue. The build
breakage was reported by Fengguang Wu.

failure warning unless __GFP_NOWARN is specified. In such contexts, irqs
are typically disabled and such a lengthy delay may even result in NMI
watchdog timeouts.
To fix this, suppress the page walk in such contexts when printing the
page allocation failure warning.

Don't use create_proc_read_entry() as that is deprecated, but rather use
proc_create_data() and seq_file instead.

User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability
and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although
there is more work to be done.
One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table
entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This
change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock
is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges
the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are
not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now
identical.
The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in
cache.c to improve its efficiency.
