0c0f40bdbe KVM: MMU: fix sync of ptes addressed at owner pagetable
During page sync, if a pagetable contains a self referencing pte (that
points to the pagetable), the corresponding spte may be marked as
writable even though all mappings are supposed to be write protected.

Fix by clearing page unsync before syncing individual sptes.

bd2b3ca768 KVM: VMX: Fix interrupt loss during race with NMI
If an interrupt cannot be injected for some reason (say, page fault
when fetching the IDT descriptor), the interrupt is marked for
reinjection.  However, if an NMI is queued at this time, the NMI
will be injected instead and the NMI will be lost.

Fix by deferring the NMI injection until the interrupt has been
injected successfully.

Analyzed by Jan Kiszka.

86bbc2c235 xen: pin correct PGD on suspend
Impact: fix Xen guest boot failure

commit eefb47f6a1 ("xen: use
spin_lock_nest_lock when pinning a pagetable") changed xen_pgd_walk to
walk over mm->pgd rather than taking pgd as an argument.

This breaks xen_mm_(un)pin_all() because it makes init_mm.pgd readonly
instead of the pgd we are interested in and therefore the pin subsequently
fails.

a1967d6441 x86: revert irq number limitation
Impact: fix MSIx not enough irq numbers available regression

The manual revert of the sparse_irq patches missed to bring the number
of possible irqs back to the .27 status. This resulted in a regression
when two multichannel network cards were placed in a system with only
one IO_APIC - causing the networking driver to not have the right
IRQ and the device not coming up.

Remove the dynamic allocation logic leftovers and simply return
NR_IRQS in probe_nr_irqs() for now.

8d26487fd4 tracing/stack-tracer: introduce CONFIG_USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT
Impact: cleanup

User stack tracing is just implemented for x86, but it is not x86 specific.

Introduce a generic config flag, that is currently enabled only for x86.
When other arches implement it, they will have to
SELECT USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

02b67518e2 tracing: add support for userspace stacktraces in tracing/iter_ctrl
Impact: add new (default-off) tracing visualization feature

Usage example:

 mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
 cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
 echo sched_switch >current_tracer
 echo 1 >tracing_enabled
 .... run application ...
 echo 0 >tracing_enabled

Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'.

To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with
frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).

f201ae2356 tracing/function-return-tracer: store return stack into task_struct and allocate it dynamically
Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely

Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth
of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses
to the stack.

So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current
only when the tracer is activated.

Typical scheme when tracer is activated:
- allocate a return stack for each task in global list.
- fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task
- exit: free return stack of current
- idle init: same as fork

I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.

0ca4b6b001 x86: Fix interrupt leak due to migration
When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the
move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not
being used.  If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors
become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes
the interrupt to become unusable.

This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an
MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded
and reloaded repeatedly.

This patch removes the following section mismatch warning. A patch set

introduce some other problem, reported by Rufus
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/11/46). Then Ingo Molnar suggest that,
it's best to remove __init from xsave_cntxt_init(void). Which is the
second patch in this series. Now, this one removes the following
warning.

de11defebf reintroduce accept4
Introduce a new accept4() system call.  The addition of this system call
matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(),
inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls
that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags
argument that can be used to access additional functionality.

The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that
it adds a flags bit-mask argument.  Two flags are initially implemented.
(Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.)

SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled
for the new file descriptor returned by accept4().  This is a useful
security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded
program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as
another thread is doing a fork() plus exec().  More details here:
http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling",
Ulrich Drepper).

The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag
to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4().
(This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls
fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result.

Here's a test program.  Works on x86-32.  Should work on x86-64, but
I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with.

It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of
SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies
that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file
description returned by accept4().

I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2,
and it passes according to my test program.

Phoenix BIOSes variously identify their vendor as "Phoenix Technologies,

This patch makes the identification string in the bad_bios_dmi_table

versions are handled.

Again, the patched file compiles cleanly and the patch has been tested

3ce1f93c6d AMD IOMMU: enable device isolation per default
Impact: makes device isolation the default for AMD IOMMU

Some device drivers showed double-free bugs of DMA memory while testing
them with AMD IOMMU. If all devices share the same protection domain

10db4ef7b9 x86, PEBS/DS: fix code flow in ds_request()
this compiler warning:

  arch/x86/kernel/ds.c: In function 'ds_request':
  arch/x86/kernel/ds.c:368: warning: 'context' may be used uninitialized in this function

Shows that the code flow in ds_request() is buggy - it goes into
the unlock+release-context path even when the context is not allocated
yet.

First allocate the context, then do the other checks.

Also, take care with GFP allocations under the ds_lock spinlock.

0231022cc3 tracing/function-return-tracer: add the overrun field
Impact: help to find the better depth of trace

We decided to arbitrary define the depth of function return trace as
"20". Perhaps this is not enough. To help finding an optimal depth, we
measure now the overrun: the number of functions that have been missed
for the current thread. By default this is not displayed, we have to
do set a particular flag on the return tracer: echo overrun >
/debug/tracing/trace_options And the overrun will be printed on the
right.

As the trace shows below, the current 20 depth is not enough.

93ce99e849 x86: add rdtsc barrier to TSC sync check
Impact: fix incorrectly marked unstable TSC clock

Patch (commit 0d12cdd "sched: improve sched_clock() performance") has
a regression on one of the test systems here.

With the patch, I see:

 checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]:
 Measured 28 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock.
 Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed

Whereas, without the patch syncs pass fine on all CPUs:

 checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: passed.

Due to this, TSC is marked unstable, when it is not actually unstable.
This is because syncs in check_tsc_wrap() goes away due to this commit.

As per the discussion on this thread, correct way to fix this is to add
explicit syncs as below?

e7d3737ea1 tracing/function-return-tracer: support for dynamic ftrace on function return tracer
This patch adds the support for dynamic tracing on the function return tracer.
The whole difference with normal dynamic function tracing is that we don't need
to hook on a particular callback. The only pro that we want is to nop or set
dynamically the calls to ftrace_caller (which is ftrace_return_caller here).

Some security checks ensure that we are not trying to launch dynamic tracing for
return tracing while normal function tracing is already running.

An example of trace with getnstimeofday set as a filter:

ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (2283 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1396 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1825 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1426 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1464 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1524 ns)

31e889098a ftrace: pass module struct to arch dynamic ftrace functions
Impact: allow archs more flexibility on dynamic ftrace implementations

Dynamic ftrace has largly been developed on x86. Since x86 does not
have the same limitations as other architectures, the ftrace interaction
between the generic code and the architecture specific code was not
flexible enough to handle some of the issues that other architectures
have.

Most notably, module trampolines. Due to the limited branch distance
that archs make in calling kernel core code from modules, the module
load code must create a trampoline to jump to what will make the
larger jump into core kernel code.

The problem arises when this happens to a call to mcount. Ftrace checks
all code before modifying it and makes sure the current code is what
it expects. Right now, there is not enough information to handle modifying
module trampolines.

This patch changes the API between generic dynamic ftrace code and
the arch dependent code. There is now two functions for modifying code:

  ftrace_make_nop(mod, rec, addr) - convert the code at rec->ip into
       a nop, where the original text is calling addr. (mod is the
       module struct if called by module init)

  ftrace_make_caller(rec, addr) - convert the code rec->ip that should
       be a nop into a caller to addr.

The record "rec" now has a new field called "arch" where the architecture
can add any special attributes to each call site record.

The better fix is commit cbda1ba898

this blacklisting based on the DMI identification for the offending
motherboard, since sometimes this chipset (or at least a chipset with

97a70e548b x86, hibernate: fix breakage on x86_32 with CONFIG_NUMA set
Impact: fix crash during hibernation on 32-bit NUMA

The NUMA code on x86_32 creates special memory mapping that allows
each node's pgdat to be located in this node's memory.  For this
purpose it allocates a memory area at the end of each node's memory
and maps this area so that it is accessible with virtual addresses
belonging to low memory.  As a result, if there is high memory,
these NUMA-allocated areas are physically located in high memory,
although they are mapped to low memory addresses.

Our hibernation code does not take that into account and for this
reason hibernation fails on all x86_32 systems with CONFIG_NUMA=y and
with high memory present.  Fix this by adding a special mapping for
the NUMA-allocated memory areas to the temporary page tables created
during the last phase of resume.

62d59d17a5 tracing/function-return-tracer: make the function return tracer lockless
Impact: remove spinlocks and irq disabling in function return tracer.

I've tried to figure out all of the race condition that could happen
when the tracer pushes or pops a return address trace to/from the
current thread_info.

Theory:

_ One thread can only execute on one cpu at a time. So this code
  doesn't need to be SMP-safe. Just drop the spinlock.

_ The only race could happen between the current thread and an
  interrupt. If an interrupt is raised, it will increase the index of
  the return stack storage and then execute until the end of the
  tracing to finally free the index it used. We don't need to disable
  irqs.

This is theorical. In practice, I've tested it with a two-core SMP and
had no problem at all. Perhaps -tip testing could confirm it.

As you can see by the above, there's a bit of work to do in rethinking
the use of some unlikelys and likelys. Note: the unlikely case had 71 hits
that were more than 25%.

Note:  After submitting my first version of this patch, Andrew Morton
  showed me a version written by Daniel Walker, where I picked up
  the following ideas from:

  1)  Using __builtin_constant_p to avoid profiling fixed values.
  2)  Using __FILE__ instead of instruction pointers.
  3)  Using the preprocessor to stop all profiling of likely
       annotations from vsyscall_64.c.

Thanks to Andrew Morton, Arjan van de Ven, Theodore Tso and Ingo Molnar
for their feed back on this patch.

(*) Not ever unlikely is recorded, those that are used by vsyscalls
 (a few of them) had to have profiling disabled.

32836259ff ACPI: pci_link: remove acpi_irq_balance_set() interface
This removes the acpi_irq_balance_set() interface from the PCI
interrupt link driver.

x86 used acpi_irq_balance_set() to tell the PCI interrupt link
driver to configure links to minimize IRQ sharing.  But the link
driver can easily figure out whether to turn on IRQ balancing
based on the IRQ model (PIC/IOAPIC/etc), so we can get rid of
that external interface.

It's better for the driver to figure this out at init-time.  If
we set it externally via the x86 code, the interface reduces
modularity, and we depend on the fact that acpi_process_madt()
happens before we process the kernel command line.

There is a potential issue that, when guest using pagetable without vmexit when
EPT enabled, guest would use PAT/PCD/PWT bits to index PAT msr for it's memory,
which would be inconsistent with host side and would cause host MCE due to
inconsistent cache attribute.

The patch set IGMT bit in EPT entry to ignore guest PAT and use WB as default

the [parent_replaced] is used in an =rm fashion, so that constraint

caf4b323b0 tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracing
Impact: add infrastructure for function-return tracing

Add low level support for ftrace return tracing.

This plug-in stores return addresses on the thread_info structure of
the current task.

The index of the current return address is initialized when the task
is the first one (init) and when a process forks (the child). It is
not needed when a task does a sys_execve because after this syscall,
it still needs to return on the kernel functions it called.

Note that the code of return_to_handler has been suggested by Steven
Rostedt as almost all of the ideas of improvements in this V3.

For purpose of security, arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c is not traced
because __switch_to() changes the current task during its execution.
That could cause inconsistency in the stored return address of this
function even if I didn't have any crash after testing with tracing on
this function enabled.

I asked some people for help and I was told that it wasn't really
worth the effort, because CONFIG_NUMA was generally broken on 32-bit
x86 systems and it shouldn't be used in such configs.  For this
reason, make CONFIG_NUMA depend on BROKEN instead of EXPERIMENTAL on

 9761990 total                                      2.8468

this is large part due to the rdtsc_barrier() that is done before
and after reading the TSC.

But sched_clock() is not a precise clock in the GTOD sense, using such
barriers is completely pointless. So remove the barriers and only use
them in vget_cycles().

This improves lat_ctx performance by about 5%.

d05fdf3160 xen: make sure stray alias mappings are gone before pinning
Xen requires that all mappings of pagetable pages are read-only, so
that they can't be updated illegally.  As a result, if a page is being
turned into a pagetable page, we need to make sure all its mappings
are RO.

If the page had been used for ioremap or vmalloc, it may still have
left over mappings as a result of not having been lazily unmapped.
This change makes sure we explicitly mop them all up before pinning
the page.

Unlike aliases created by kmap, the there can be vmalloc aliases even
for non-high pages, so we must do the flush unconditionally.

47cb2ed9df x86, xen: fix use of pgd_page now that it really does return a page
Impact: fix 32-bit Xen guest boot crash

On 32-bit PAE, pud_page, for no good reason, didn't really return a
struct page *.  Since Jan Beulich's fix "i386/PAE: fix pud_page()",
pud_page does return a struct page *.

Because PAE has 3 pagetable levels, the pud level is folded into the
pgd level, so pgd_page() is the same as pud_page(), and now returns
a struct page *.  Update the xen/mmu.c code which uses pgd_page()
accordingly.

8d00450d29 Revert "x86: default to reboot via ACPI"
This reverts commit c7ffa6c262.

the assumptio of this change was that this would not break
any existing machine. Andrey Borzenkov reported troubles with
the ACPI reboot method: the system would hang on reboot, necessiating
a power cycle. Probably more systems are affected as well.

Also, there are patches queued up for v2.6.29 to disable virtualization
on emergency_restart() - which was the original motivation of
this change.

d6f0f39b7d x86: add smp_mb() before sending INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR
Impact: fix rare x2apic hang

On x86, x2apic mode accesses for sending IPI's don't have serializing
semantics. If the IPI receivner refers(in lock-free fashion) to some
memory setup by the sender, the need for smp_mb() before sending the
IPI becomes critical in x2apic mode.

Add the smp_mb() in native_flush_tlb_others() before sending the IPI.

60a7ecf426 ftrace: add quick function trace stop
Impact: quick start and stop of function tracer

This patch adds a way to disable the function tracer quickly without
the need to run kstop_machine. It adds a new variable called
function_trace_stop which will stop the calls to functions from mcount
when set.  This is just an on/off switch and does not handle recursion
like preempt_disable().

It's main purpose is to help other tracers/debuggers start and stop tracing
fuctions without the need to call kstop_machine.

The config option HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST is added for archs
that implement the testing of the function_trace_stop in the mcount
arch dependent code. Otherwise, the test is done in the C code.

x86 is the only arch at the moment that supports this.

c78d0cf292 x86: don't allow nr_irqs > NR_IRQS
Impact: fix boot hang on 32-bit systems with more than 224 IO-APIC pins

On some 32-bit systems with a lot of IO-APICs probe_nr_irqs() can
return a value larger than NR_IRQS. This will lead to probe_irq_on()
overrunning the irq_desc array.

I hit this when running net-next-2.6 (close to 2.6.28-rc3) on a
Supermicro dual Xeon system.  NR_IRQS is 224 but probe_nr_irqs() detects
5 IOAPICs and returns 240.  Here are the log messages:

9fcd18c9e6 sched: re-tune balancing
Impact: improve wakeup affinity on NUMA systems, tweak SMP systems

Given the fixes+tweaks to the wakeup-buddy code, re-tweak the domain
balancing defaults on NUMA and SMP systems.

Turn on SD_WAKE_AFFINE which was off on x86 NUMA - there's no reason
why we would not want to have wakeup affinity across nodes as well.
(we already do this in the standard NUMA template.)

lat_ctx on a NUMA box is particularly happy about this change:

before:

 |   phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2
 |   "size=0k ovr=2.60
 |   2 5.70

after:

 |   phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2
 |   "size=0k ovr=2.65
 |   2 2.07

a 2.75x speedup.

pipe-test is similarly happy about it too:

 |  phoenix:~/sched-tests> ./pipe-test
 |   18.26 usecs/loop.
 |   14.70 usecs/loop.
 |   14.38 usecs/loop.
 |   10.55 usecs/loop.              # +WAKE_AFFINE on domain0+domain1
 |   8.63 usecs/loop.
 |   8.59 usecs/loop.
 |   9.03 usecs/loop.
 |   8.94 usecs/loop.
 |   8.96 usecs/loop.
 |   8.63 usecs/loop.

Also:

 - disable SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE on NUMA and SMP domains (keep it for siblings)
 - enable SD_WAKE_BALANCE on SMP domains

Sysbench+postgresql improves all around the board, quite significantly:

           .28-rc3-11474e2c  .28-rc3-11474e2c-tune

1f98757776 x86: Clean up late e820 resource allocation
This makes the late e820 resources use 'insert_resource_expand_to_fit()'
instead of doing a 'reserve_region_with_split()', and also avoids
marking them as IORESOURCE_BUSY.

This results in us being perfectly happy to use pre-existing PCI
resources even if they were marked as being in a reserved region, while
still avoiding any _new_ allocations in the reserved regions.  It also
makes for a simpler and more accurate resource tree.

Example resource allocation from Jonathan Corbet, who has firmware that
has an e820 reserved entry that covered a big range (e0000000-fed003ff),
and that had various PCI resources in it set up by firmware.

With old kernels, the reserved range would force us to re-allocate all
pre-existing PCI resources, and his reserved range would end up looking
like this:

	e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
	  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

where only the pre-allocated special regions (IOAPIC and HPET) were kept
around.

With 2.6.28-rc2, which uses 'reserve_region_with_split()', Jonathan's
resource tree looked like this:

	e0000000-fe7fffff : reserved
	fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
	 fe800000-fe8fffff : reserved
	fe900000-fe9d9aff : reserved
	fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
	 fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : reserved
	fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
	 fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : reserved
	fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
	 fe9da000-fe9dafff : reserved
	fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
	 fe9db000-fe9dbfff : reserved
	fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
	 fe9dc000-fe9dffff : reserved
	fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
	 fe9e0000-fe9fffff : reserved
	fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
	 fea00000-fea7ffff : reserved
	fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
	 fea80000-feafffff : reserved
	feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
	 feb00000-febfffff : reserved
	fec00000-fed003ff : reserved
	 fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	 fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

and because the reserved entry had been split and moved into the
individual resources, and because it used the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag, the
drivers that actually wanted to _use_ those resources couldn't actually
attach to them:

	e1000e 0000:00:19.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9e0000-0xfe9fffff]
	HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9dc000-0xfe9dffff]

with this patch, the resource tree instead becomes

	e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
	  fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
	  fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
	  fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
	    fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : ehci_hcd
	  fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
	  fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
	    fe9db000-fe9dbfff : e1000e
	  fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
	    fe9dc000-fe9dffff : ICH HD audio
	  fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
	    fe9e0000-fe9fffff : e1000e
	  fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
	  fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
	  feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
	  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

ie the one reserved region now ends up surrounding all the PCI resources
that were allocated inside of it by firmware, and because it is not
marked BUSY, drivers have no problem attaching to the pre-allocated
resources.
