The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a
qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which
can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in
/proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types'
of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this
case).
Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates
the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by
the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple
enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need
for this flag.
The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new
'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags:
'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters
continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the
region.
The qemu code which implements this features is at:
http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch
In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this
patch.
I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for
security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are
dumped.
This patch:
The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to
indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we
can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against
the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from
arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

Pull PCI changes (including maintainer change) from Jesse Barnes:
"This pull has some good cleanups from Bjorn and Yinghai, as well as
some more code from Yinghai to better handle resource re-allocation
when enabled.
There's also a new initcall_debug feature from Arjan which will print
out quirk timing information to help identify slow quirks for fixing
or refinement (Yinghai sent in a few patches to do just that once the
new debug code landed).
Beyond that, I'm handing off PCI maintainership to Bjorn Helgaas.
He's been a core PCI and Linux contributor for some time now, and has
kindly volunteered to take over. I just don't feel I have the time
for PCI review and work that it deserves lately (I've taken on some
other projects), and haven't been as responsive lately as I'd like, so
I approached Bjorn asking if he'd like to manage things. He's going
to give it a try, and I'm confident he'll do at least as well as I
have in keeping the tree managed, patches flowing, and keeping things
stable."

As suggested by Suresh Siddha and Yinghai Lu:
For x2apic pre-enabled systems, apic driver is set already early
through early_acpi_boot_init()/early_acpi_process_madt()/
acpi_parse_madt()/default_acpi_madt_oem_check() path so that
apic_id_valid() checking will be sufficient during MADT and SRAT
parsing.
For non-x2apic pre-enabled systems, all apic ids should be less
than 255.
This allows us to substitute the checks in
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c::acpi_parse_x2apic() and
arch/x86/mm/srat.c::acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init() with
apic->apic_id_valid().
In addition we can avoid feigning the x2apic cpu feature in the
NumaChip apic code.
The following apic drivers have separate apic_id_valid()
functions which will accept x2apic type IDs :
x2apic_phys
x2apic_cluster
x2apic_uv_x
apic_numachip

The problem occurs on !CONFIG_VM86 kernels [1] when a kernel-mode task
returns from a system call with a pending signal.
A real-life scenario is a child of 'khelper' returning from a failed
kernel_execve() in ____call_usermodehelper() [ kernel/kmod.c ].
kernel_execve() fails due to a pending SIGKILL, which is the result of
"kill -9 -1" (at least, busybox's init does it upon reboot).
The loop is as follows:
* syscall_exit_work:
- work_pending: // start_of_the_loop
- work_notify_sig:
- do_notify_resume()
- do_signal()
- if (!user_mode(regs)) return;
- resume_userspace // TIF_SIGPENDING is still set
- work_pending // so we call work_pending => goto
// start_of_the_loop

Pull drm main changes from Dave Airlie:
"This is the main drm pull request, I'm probably going to send two more
smaller ones, will explain below.
This contains a patch that is also in the fbdev tree, but it should be
the same patch, it added an API for hot unplugging framebuffer
devices, and I need that API for a new driver.
It also contains some changes to the i2c tree which Jean has acked,
and one change to moorestown platform stuff in x86.
Highlights:
- new drivers: UDL driver for USB displaylink devices, kms only,
should support correct hotplug operations.
- core: i2c speedups + better hotplug support, EDID overriding via
firmware interface - allows user to load a firmware for a broken
monitor/kvm from userspace, it even has documentation for it.
- exynos: new HDMI audio + hdmi 1.4 + virtual output driver
- gma500: code cleanup
- radeon: cleanups, CS optimisations, streamout support and pageflip
fix
- nouveau: NVD9 displayport support + more reclocking work
- i915: re-enabling GMBUS, finish gpu patch (might help hibernation
who knows), missed irq fixes, stencil tiling fixes, interlaced
support, aliasesd PPGTT support for SNB/IVB, swizzling for SNB/IVB,
semaphore fixes
As well as the usual bunch of cleanups and fixes all over the place.
I've got two things I'd like to merge a bit later:
a) AMD support for all their new radeonhd 7000 series GPU and APUs.
AMD dropped this a bit late due to insane internal review
processes, (please AMD just follow Intel and let open source guys
ship stuff early) however I don't want to penalise people who own
this hardware (since its been on sale for 3-4 months and GPU hw
doesn't exactly have a lifetime in years) and consign them to
using closed drivers for longer than necessary. The changes are
well contained and just plug into the driver new gpu functionality
so they should be fairly regression proof. I just want to give
them a bit of a run on the hw AMD kindly sent me.
b) drm prime/dma-buf interface code. This is just infrastructure
code to expose the dma-buf stuff to drm drivers and to userspace.
I'm not planning on pushing any driver support in this cycle
(except maybe exynos), but I'd like to get the infrastructure code
in so for the next cycle I can start getting the driver support
into the individual drivers. We have started driver support for
i915, nouveau and udl along with I think exynos and omap in
staging. However this code relies on the dma-buf tree being
pulled into your tree first since it needs the latest interfaces
from that tree. I'll push to get that tree sent asap.
(oh and any warnings you see in i915 are gcc's fault from what anyone
can see)."
Fix up trivial conflicts in arch/x86/platform/mrst/mrst.c due to the new
msic_thermal_platform_data() thermal function being added next to the
tc35876x_platform_data() i2c device function..

This is a partial revert of commit:
d40f833 "Restrict CFLAGS for hostprogs"
The endian-manipulation macros in tools/include need <linux/types.h>,
but the hostprogs in arch/x86/boot need several headers from the
kernel build tree, which means we have to add the kernel headers to
the include path. This picks up <linux/types.h> from the kernel tree,
which gives a warning.
Since this use of <linux/types.h> is intentional, add
-D__EXPORTED_HEADERS__ to the command line to silence the warning.
A better way to fix this would be to always install the exported
kernel headers into $(objtree)/usr/include as a standard part of the
kernel build, but that is a lot more involved.

In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with
the mmap_sem hold in read mode. In those cases the huge page faults can
allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a
false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd
materializing as trans huge.
It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem
in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode
to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it
seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's
restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds). The race is only with
the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a
pmd_trans_huge().
Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with
mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and
the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously. This is
probably why it wasn't common to run into this. For example if the
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page
fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it
will be zapped.
Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough
to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call
zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a
pmd_trans_huge()).
The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack
(regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only
compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code
that computes its value. Even if the real pmd is changing under the
value we hold on the stack, we don't care. If we actually end up in
zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge,
and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained
above).
All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code
path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad
can run into a hugepmd. The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler
tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds). I
don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race
too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been
verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering
pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines
and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and
pmd_none_or_clear_bad).
if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) {
if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) {
VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem));
split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd);
} else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr))
continue;
/* fall through */
}
if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd))
Because this race condition could be exercised without special
privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179.
The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it.
I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference.
====== start quote =======
mapcount 0 page_mapcount 1
kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1384!
At some point prior to the panic, a "bad pmd ..." message similar to the
following is logged on the console:
mm/memory.c:145: bad pmd ffff8800376e1f98(80000000314000e7).
The "bad pmd ..." message is logged by pmd_clear_bad() before it clears
the page's PMD table entry.
143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd)
144 {
-> 145 pmd_ERROR(*pmd);
146 pmd_clear(pmd);
147 }
After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency
between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page
and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page
is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency.
1381 if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page))
1382 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n",
1383 mapcount, page_mapcount(page));
-> 1384 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page));
The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded
process. Thread B incurs a page fault on a virtual address that has never
been accessed (PMD entry is zero) while Thread A is executing an madvise()
system call on a virtual address within the same 2 MB (huge page) range.

// Here we set the page's PMD entry which will be cleared
// when Thread A calls pmd_clear_bad().
...
spin_unlock(&mm->page_table_lock)
The mmap_sem does not prevent the race because both threads are acquiring
it in shared mode (down_read). Thread B holds the page_table_lock while
the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated. However, Thread A
does not synchronize on that lock.

This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping
from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it,
renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures.
Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain
implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such
as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
refactoring it in-place. So, this branch rips out the 'new'
irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
fully bisectable way of course). It converts all users over to the
new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.
No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations. It will
even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
translating irqs at boot time. MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
are converted too.
The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
follow-on patches.

Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar:
- New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and
the tooling side, on CPUs that support it. (modern x86 Intel CPUs
with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.)
This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for
branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from
regular, function histogram centric profiles.
The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result
looks like this in perf report:
$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy
$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
52.34% [.] main [.] f1
24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3
23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2
0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow
0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul
0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
0.01% [k] main [k] __printf
This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest
percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken
branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls
and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the
instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system
calls, traps, interrupts, etc.
This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI
support in perf report.
- Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies.
It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter
you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other
improvements.
- Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf
stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs:
perf top -p 21483,21485
perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
perf record -p 21483,21485
- Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf
report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the
tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc.
- Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the
factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h
generic facility:
struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;
...
if (static_key_false(&key))
do unlikely code
else
do likely code
...
static_key_slow_inc();
...
static_key_slow_inc();
...
The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as
little impact to the likely code path as possible. the
static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching.
This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to
micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key
usage and fast/slow cost patterns.
- SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support.
- Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's
smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more
smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows
better, etc.
- Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes',
and a corner case bugfix.
- Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk).
- Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space
self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any
system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side.
- 'perf bench' improvements
- ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made
these features possible. And, as usual this list is incomplete as
there were also lots of other improvements

Microsecond precision is enough for checking whether the TSC write delta

Upon resume from hibernation, CPU 0's hvclock area contains the old
values for system_time and tsc_timestamp. It is necessary for the
hypervisor to update these values with uptodate ones before the CPU uses
them.
Abstract TSC's save/restore sched_clock_state functions and use
restore_state to write to KVM_SYSTEM_TIME MSR, forcing an update.
Also move restore_sched_clock_state before __restore_processor_state,
since the later calls CONFIG_LOCK_STAT's lockstat_clock (also for TSC).

* branch 'dcache-word-accesses':
vfs: use 'unsigned long' accesses for dcache name comparison and hashing
This does the name hashing and lookup using word-sized accesses when
that is efficient, namely on x86 (although any little-endian machine
with good unaligned accesses would do).
It does very much depend on little-endian logic, but it's a very hot
couple of functions under some real loads, and this patch improves the
performance of __d_lookup_rcu() and link_path_walk() by up to about 30%.
Giving a 10% improvement on some very pathname-heavy benchmarks.
Because we do make unaligned accesses past the filename, the
optimization is disabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is active, and we
effectively depend on the fact that on x86 we don't really ever have the
last page of usable RAM followed immediately by any IO memory (due to
ACPI tables, BIOS buffer areas etc).
Some of the bit operations we do are a bit "subtle". It's commented,
but you do need to really think about the code. Or just consider it
black magic.
Thanks to people on G+ for some of the optimized bit tricks.
Matt Evans spotted that x86 bpf_jit was incorrectly handling negative
constant offsets in BPF_S_LDX_B_MSH instruction.
We need to abort JIT compilation like we do in common_load so that
filter uses the interpreter code and can call __load_pointer()

While running the latest Linux as guest under VMware in highly
over-committed situations, we have seen cases when the refined TSC
algorithm fails to get a valid tsc_start value in
tsc_refine_calibration_work from multiple attempts. As a result the
kernel keeps on scheduling the tsc_irqwork task for later. Subsequently
after several attempts when it gets a valid start value it goes through
the refined calibration and either bails out or uses the new results.
Given that the kernel originally read the TSC frequency from the
platform, which is the best it can get, I don't think there is much
value in refining it.
So for systems which get the TSC frequency from the platform we
should skip the refined tsc algorithm.
We can use the TSC_RELIABLE cpu cap flag to detect this, right now it is

When switching from a vsyscall capable to a non-vsyscall capable
clocksource, there was a small race, where the last vsyscall
gettimeofday before the switch might return a invalid time value
using the new non-vsyscall enabled clocksource values after the
switch is complete.
This is due to the vsyscall code checking the vclock_mode once
outside of the seqcount protected section. After it reads the
vclock mode, it doesn't re-check that the sampled clock data
that is obtained in the seqcount critical section still matches.
The fix is to sample vclock_mode inside the protected section,
and as long as it isn't VCLOCK_NONE, return the calculated
value. If it has changed and is now VCLOCK_NONE, fall back
to the syscall gettime calculation.

When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to
be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and
in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by
compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls.
However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC
syscalls do not do this. semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth
argument, instead of the fourth argument itself. msgsnd(), msgrcv()
and shmat() expect arguments in different order.
This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be
set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc,
s390, and mips). No actual semantics are changed for those architectures,
and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c.
Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such
as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can
avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific
compat layer. In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64
mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect.
The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed
with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were
not being properly handled.

Adding struct _sigchld_x32 caused a misalignment cascade in struct
siginfo, because union _sifields is located on an 4-byte boundary
(8-byte misaligned.)
Adding new fields that are 8-byte aligned caused the intermediate
structures to also be aligned to 8 bytes, thereby adding padding in
unexpected places.
Thus, change s64 to compat_s64 here, which makes it "misaligned on
paper". In reality these fields *are* actually aligned (there are 3
preceeding ints outside the union and 3 inside struct _sigchld_x32),
but because of the intervening union and struct it is not possible for
gcc to avoid padding without breaking the ABI.

When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However,
when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be
carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of
cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the
machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The
overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is
enough room to store the final answer.
We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and
remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing
the multiplication separately on the two components.
Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous
fix in __cycles_2_ns().

Now the purpose of cpu_active is mostly with bringing down a cpu, where
we mark it !active to avoid the load-balancer from moving tasks to it
while we tear down the cpu. This is required because we only update the
sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so
that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want
new tasks to appear.
On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu,
so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state.
So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and
consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the
cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.

Merge tag 'v3.3-rc7' into gpio/next
Linux 3.3-rc7. Merged into the gpio branch to pick up gpio bugfixes already
in mainline before queueing up move v3.4 patches
For the hypervisor to take advantage of the MWAIT support it needs
to extract from the ACPI _CST the register address. But the
hypervisor does not have the support to parse DSDT so it relies on
the initial domain (dom0) to parse the ACPI Power Management information
and push it up to the hypervisor. The pushing of the data is done
by the processor_harveset_xen module which parses the information that
the ACPI parser has graciously exposed in 'struct acpi_processor'.
For the ACPI parser to also expose the Cx states for MWAIT, we need
to expose the MWAIT capability (leaf 1). Furthermore we also need to
expose the MWAIT_LEAF capability (leaf 5) for cstate.c to properly
function.
The hypervisor could expose these flags when it traps the XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX
operations, but it can't do it since it needs to be backwards compatible.
Instead we choose to use the native CPUID to figure out if the MWAIT
capability exists and use the XEN_SET_PDC query hypercall to figure out
if the hypervisor wants us to expose the MWAIT_LEAF capability or not.
Note: The XEN_SET_PDC query was implemented in c/s 23783:
"ACPI: add _PDC input override mechanism".
With this in place, instead of
C3 ACPI IOPORT 415
we get now
C3:ACPI FFH INTEL MWAIT 0x20
Note: The cpu_idle which would be calling the mwait variants for idling
never gets set b/c we set the default pm_idle to be the hypercall variant.

Commit f0fbf0abc0 ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted
delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit. The reason is
that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and
delay_64.c. Though the subtle difference of the result was:
static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops)
{
- unsigned bclock, now;
+ unsigned long bclock, now;
Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the
TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64
bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when
bclock is read, because the following check
if ((now - bclock) >= loops)
break;
evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0
because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in
0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops
value. That explains Tvortkos observation:
"Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and
that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us."
Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32
and 64 bit.

This patch fixes a race introduced by:
commit 95d4c16ce7
KVM: Optimize dirty logging by rmap_write_protect()
During protecting pages for dirty logging, other threads may also try
to protect a page in mmu_sync_children() or kvm_mmu_get_page().
In such a case, because get_dirty_log releases mmu_lock before flushing
TLB's, the following race condition can happen:
A (get_dirty_log) B (another thread)
lock(mmu_lock)
clear pte.w
unlock(mmu_lock)
lock(mmu_lock)
pte.w is already cleared
unlock(mmu_lock)
skip TLB flush
return
...
TLB flush
Though thread B assumes the page has already been protected when it

During a host suspend, TSC may go backwards, which KVM interprets
as an unstable TSC. Technically, KVM should not be marking the
TSC unstable, which causes the TSC clocksource to go bad, but we
need to be adjusting the TSC offsets in such a case.
Dealing with this issue is a little tricky as the only place we
can reliably do it is before much of the timekeeping infrastructure
is up and running. On top of this, we are not in a KVM thread
context, so we may not be able to safely access VCPU fields.
Instead, we compute our best known hardware offset at power-up and
stash it to be applied to all VCPUs when they actually start running.

The variable last_host_tsc was removed from upstream code. I am adding
it back for two reasons. First, it is unnecessary to use guest TSC
computation to conclude information about the host TSC. The guest may
set the TSC backwards (this case handled by the previous patch), but
the computation of guest TSC (and fetching an MSR) is significanlty more
work and complexity than simply reading the hardware counter. In addition,
we don't actually need the guest TSC for any part of the computation,
by always recomputing the offset, we can eliminate the need to deal with
the current offset and any scaling factors that may apply.
The second reason is that later on, we are going to be using the host
TSC value to restore TSC offsets after a host S4 suspend, so we need to
be reading the host values, not the guest values here.

The variable last_guest_tsc was being used as an ad-hoc indicator
that guest TSC has been initialized and recorded correctly. However,
it may not have been, it could be that guest TSC has been set to some
large value, the back to a small value (by, say, a software reboot).
This defeats the logic and causes KVM to falsely assume that the
guest TSC has gone backwards, marking the host TSC unstable, which
is undesirable behavior.
In addition, rather than try to compute an offset adjustment for the
TSC on unstable platforms, just recompute the whole offset. This
allows us to get rid of one callsite for adjust_tsc_offset, which
is problematic because the units it takes are in guest units, but
here, the computation was originally being done in host units.
Doing this, and also recording last_guest_tsc when the TSC is written
allow us to remove the tricky logic which depended on last_guest_tsc
being zero to indicate a reset of uninitialized value.
Instead, we now have the guarantee that the guest TSC offset is
always at least something which will get us last_guest_tsc.

Currently, when the TSC is written by the guest, the variable
ns is updated to force the current write to appear to have taken
place at the time of the first write in this sync phase. This
leaves a cliff at the end of the match window where updates will
fall of the end. There are two scenarios where this can be a
problem in practe - first, on a system with a large number of
VCPUs, the sync period may last for an extended period of time.
The second way this can happen is if the VM reboots very rapidly
and we catch a VCPU TSC synchronization just around the edge.
We may be unaware of the reboot, and thus the first VCPU might
synchronize with an old set of the timer (at, say 0.97 seconds
ago, when first powered on). The second VCPU can come in 0.04
seconds later to try to synchronize, but it misses the window
because it is just over the threshold.
Instead, stop doing this artificial setback of the ns variable
and just update it with every write of the TSC.
It may be observed that doing so causes values computed by
compute_guest_tsc to diverge slightly across CPUs - note that
the last_tsc_ns and last_tsc_write variable are used here, and
now they last_tsc_ns will be different for each VCPU, reflecting
the actual time of the update.
However, compute_guest_tsc is used only for guests which already
have TSC stability issues, and further, note that the previous
patch has caused last_tsc_write to be incremented by the difference
in nanoseconds, converted back into guest cycles. As such, only
boundary rounding errors should be visible, which given the
resolution in nanoseconds, is going to only be a few cycles and
only visible in cross-CPU consistency tests. The problem can be
fixed by adding a new set of variables to track the start offset
and start write value for the current sync cycle.

There are a few improvements that can be made to the TSC offset
matching code. First, we don't need to call the 128-bit multiply
(especially on a constant number), the code works much nicer to
do computation in nanosecond units.
Second, the way everything is setup with software TSC rate scaling,
we currently have per-cpu rates. Obviously this isn't too desirable
to use in practice, but if for some reason we do change the rate of
all VCPUs at runtime, then reset the TSCs, we will only want to
match offsets for VCPUs running at the same rate.
Finally, for the case where we have an unstable host TSC, but
rate scaling is being done in hardware, we should call the platform
code to compute the TSC offset, so the math is reorganized to recompute
the base instead, then transform the base into an offset using the
existing API.

Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz'
to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider
each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate. Instead, there is new
logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether
it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by
common code. This means we can simply query the virtual rate at
any point, which is needed for software rate scaling.
There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor
differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally
provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed. Instead,
we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is
the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling
will be used. The default is 250ppm, which is the half the
threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation.
In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can
kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than
hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available
yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software
implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the
previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either. And in
those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()",
and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev.
The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent
commit 83cd904d271b: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return
prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too.

by the first probe, and executes it when the probe is hit.
Even worse, the first probe and the second probe are removed
respectively, the second probe writes back the copied

Current probed-instruction recovery expects that only breakpoint
instruction modifies instruction. However, since kprobes jump
optimization can replace original instructions with a jump,
that expectation is not enough. And it may cause instruction
decoding failure on the function where an optimized probe
already exists.
This bug can reproduce easily as below:
1) find a target function address (any kprobe-able function is OK)
$ grep __secure_computing /proc/kallsyms
ffffffff810c19d0 T __secure_computing
2) decode the function
$ objdump -d vmlinux --start-address=0xffffffff810c19d0 --stop-address=0xffffffff810c19eb
vmlinux: file format elf64-x86-64
Disassembly of section .text:
ffffffff810c19d0 <__secure_computing>:

ffffffff810c19e9: 74 05 je ffffffff810c19f0 <__secure_computing+0x20>
3) put a kprobe-event at an optimize-able place, where no
call/jump places within the 5 bytes.
$ su -
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
4) enable it and check it is optimized.
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
5) put another kprobe on an instruction after previous probe in
the same function.
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[ 1666.500016] Probing address(0xffffffff810c19e2) is not an instruction boundary.
6) however, if the kprobes optimization is disabled, it works.
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
(no error)
This is because kprobes doesn't recover the instruction
which is overwritten with a relative jump by another kprobe
when finding instruction boundary.
It only recovers the breakpoint instruction.
This patch fixes kprobes to recover such instructions.
With this fix:
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
ffffffff810c1ab2 k __secure_computing+0x12 [DISABLED]
Changes in v4:
- Fix a bug to ensure optimized probe is really optimized
by jump.
- Remove kprobe_optready() dependency.
- Cleanup code for preparing optprobe separation.
Changes in v3:
- Fix a build error when CONFIG_OPTPROBE=n. (Thanks, Ingo!)
To fix the error, split optprobe instruction recovering

and PTRACE_POKEUSR zero-extends 32bit value to 64bit. It works since

clock_t is used mainly to give the number of jiffies a certain process
has burned. It is entirely feasible for a long-running process to
consume more than 2^32 jiffies especially in a multiprocess system.
As such, switch to a 64-bit clock_t for x32, just as we already
switched to a 64-bit time_t.
clock_t is only used in a handful of places, and as such it is really
not a very significant change. The one that has the biggest impact is
in struct siginfo, but since the *size* of struct siginfo doesn't
change (it is padded to the hilt) it is fairly easy to make this a
localized change.
This also gets rid of sys_x32_times, however since this is a pretty
late change don't compactify the system call numbers; we can reuse

With branch stack sampling, it is possible to filter by priv levels.
In system-wide mode, that means it is possible to capture only user
level branches. The builtin SW LBR filter needs to disassemble code
based on LBR captured addresses. For that, it needs to know the task
the addresses are associated with. Because of context switches, the
content of the branch stack buffer may contain addresses from
different tasks.
We need a callback on context switch to either flush the branch stack
or save it. This patch adds a new callback in struct pmu which is called
during context switches. The callback is called only when necessary.
That is when a system-wide context has, at least, one event which
uses PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK. The callback is never called for
per-thread context.
In this version, the Intel x86 code simply flushes (resets) the LBR
on context switches (fills it with zeroes). Those zeroed branches are
then filtered out by the SW filter.

This patch adds an internal sofware filter to complement
the (optional) LBR hardware filter.
The software filter is necessary:
- as a substitute when there is no HW LBR filter (e.g., Atom, Core)
- to complement HW LBR filter in case of errata (e.g., Nehalem/Westmere)
- to provide finer grain filtering (e.g., all processors)
Sometimes the LBR HW filter cannot distinguish between two types
of branches. For instance, to capture syscall as CALLS, it is necessary
to enable the LBR_FAR filter which will also capture JMP instructions.
Thus, a second pass is necessary to filter those out, this is what the
SW filter can do.
The SW filter is built on top of the internal x86 disassembler. It
is a best effort filter especially for user level code. It is subject
to the availability of the text page of the program.
The SW filter is enabled on all Intel processors. It is bypassed
when the user is capturing all branches at all priv levels.
