1c118b8226 KVM: MMU: avoid fast page fault fixing mmio page fault
Currently, fast page fault incorrectly tries to fix mmio page fault when
the generation number is invalid (spte.gen != kvm.gen).  It then returns
to guest to retry the fault since it sees the last spte is nonpresent.
This causes an infinite loop.

Since fast page fault only works for direct mmu, the issue exists when
1) tdp is enabled. It is only triggered only on AMD host since on Intel host
   the mmio page fault is recognized as ept-misconfig whose handler call
   fault-page path with error_code = 0

2) guest paging is disabled. Under this case, the issue is hardly discovered
   since paging disable is short-lived and the sptes will be invalid after
   memslot changed for 150 times

Fix it by filtering out MMIO page faults in page_fault_can_be_fast.

4df05f3619 x86: Make sure IDT is page aligned
Since the IDT is referenced from a fixmap, make sure it is page aligned.
Merge with 32-bit one, since it was already aligned to deal with F00F
bug. Since bss is cleared before IDT setup, it can live there. This also
moves the other *_idt_table variables into common locations.

This avoids the risk of the IDT ever being moved in the bss and having
the mapping be offset, resulting in calling incorrect handlers. In the
current upstream kernel this is not a manifested bug, but heavily patched
kernels (such as those using the PaX patch series) did encounter this bug.

The tables other than idt_table technically do not need to be page
aligned, at least not at the current time, but using a common
declaration avoids mistakes.  On 64 bits the table is exactly one page
long, anyway.

5ff560fd48 x86, suspend: Handle CPUs which fail to #GP on RDMSR
There are CPUs which have errata causing RDMSR of a nonexistent MSR to
not fault.  We would then try to WRMSR to restore the value of that
MSR, causing a crash.  Specifically, some Pentium M variants would
have this problem trying to save and restore the non-existent EFER,
causing a crash on resume.

Work around this by making sure we can write back the result at
suspend time.

Huge thanks to Christian Sünkenberg for finding the offending erratum
that finally deciphered the mystery.

148f9bb877 x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files
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.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

baf64b8544 perf/x86: Fix incorrect use of do_div() in NMI warning
I completely botched understanding the calling conventions of
do_div().  I assumed that do_div() returned the result instead
of realizing that it modifies its argument and returns a
remainder.  The side-effect from this would be bogus numbers
for the "msecs" value in the warning messages:

	INFO: NMI handler (perf_event_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 0.114 msecs

Note, there was a second fix posted by Stephane Eranian for
a separate patch which I also botched:

 "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
  window.  The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
  this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
  made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
  trickeled in.

  Highlights:

   1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
      handling and context switches.  Allows direct polling of a network
      device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

      Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

      Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
      commit 0a4db187a9 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

      From Eliezer Tamir.

   2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
      more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
      addresses.  Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
      Eric Dumazet.

   3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
      Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
      Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

   4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
      Pavel Emelyanov.

   5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
      Rony Efraim.

   6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

   7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
      Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

   8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
      from Cong Wang.

   9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
      Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport.  In particular,
      support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

  10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
      lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code.  From Daniel
      Borkmann.

  11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
      devices.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
      manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
      From Daniel Borkmann.

  13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
      from Johannes Berg.

  14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
      by using an rbtree.  From Eric Dumazet.

  15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
      Cheng.

  16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
      Horman.

  17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
      pointer that's passed into them.  Use this to properly handle
      network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event().  From Jiri
      Pirko and Timo Teräs.

  18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
      Huewe.

  19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
      O(1) calculation instead.  From Eric Dumazet.

  20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
      like ipv4.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

  22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
      during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding.  From
      Willem de Bruijn.

  23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
      Dumazet.

  24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
      burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead.  Also
      from Eric Dumazet.

  25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
      from Vlad Yasevich.

  26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets.  From Lorenzo Colitti.

  27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
      too, from David Majnemer.

  28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
      to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.

  29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
      upd_v6_push_pending_frames().  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

  30) Fix L2TP sequence number handling bugs, from James Chapman."

f7da04c9e3 ptrace/x86: flush_ptrace_hw_breakpoint() shoule clear the virtual debug registers
flush_ptrace_hw_breakpoint() destroys the counters set by ptrace, but
"leaks" ->debugreg6 and ->ptrace_dr7.

The problem is minor, but still it doesn't look right and flush_thread()
did this until commit 66cb591729 ("hw-breakpoints: use the new wrapper
routines to access debug registers in process/thread code").  Now that
PTRACE_DETACH does flush_ too this makes even more sense.

b87a95ad60 ptrace/x86: ptrace_write_dr7() should create bp if !disabled
Commit 24f1e32c60 ("hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer
on top of perf events") introduced the minor regression.  Before this
commit

	PTRACE_POKEUSER DR7, enableDR0
	PTRACE_POKEUSER DR0, address

was perfectly valid, now PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR7) fails if DR0 was not
previously initialized by PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR0).

Change ptrace_write_dr7() to do ptrace_register_breakpoint(addr => 0) if
!bp && !disabled.

This fixes watchpoint-zeroaddr from ptrace-tests, see

    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=660204.

9afe33ada2 ptrace/x86: introduce ptrace_register_breakpoint()
No functional changes, preparation.

Extract the "register breakpoint" code from ptrace_get_debugreg() into
the new/generic helper, ptrace_register_breakpoint().  It will have more
users.

The patch also adds another simple helper, ptrace_fill_bp_fields(), to
factor out the arch_bp_generic_fields() logic in register/modify.

29a5551341 ptrace/x86: dont delay "disable" till second pass in ptrace_write_dr7()
ptrace_write_dr7() skips ptrace_modify_breakpoint(disabled => true)
unless second_pass, this buys nothing but complicates the code and means
that we always do the main loop twice even if "disabled" was never true.

The comment says:

	Don't unregister the breakpoints right-away,
	unless all register_user_hw_breakpoint()
	requests have succeeded.

Firstly, we do not do register_user_hw_breakpoint(), it was removed by
commit 24f1e32c60 ("hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer
on top of perf events").

We are going to restore register_user_hw_breakpoint() (see the next
patch) but this doesn't matter: after commit 44234adcdc
("hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering them")
perf_event_disable() can not hurt, hw_breakpoint_del() does not free the
slot.

Remove the "second_pass" check from the main loop and simplify the code.
Since we have to check "bp != NULL" anyway, the patch also removes the
same check in ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and moves the comment into
ptrace_write_dr7().

With this patch the second pass is only needed to restore the saved
old_dr7.  This should never fail, so the patch adds WARN_ON() to catch
the potential problems as Frederic suggested.

ptrace_write_dr7() looks unnecessarily overcomplicated.  We can factor
out ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and do not do "continue" twice, just we
need to pass the proper "disabled" argument to
ptrace_modify_breakpoint().

02be46fba4 ptrace/x86: revert "hw_breakpoints: Fix racy access to ptrace breakpoints"
This reverts commit 87dc669ba2 ("hw_breakpoints: Fix racy access to
ptrace breakpoints").

The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit
9899d11f65 ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race
with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and
->ptrace_bps[] can't go away.

The patch only removes ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints and
does a couple of "while at it" cleanups, it doesn't remove other changes
from the reverted commit.

  over 120 lines long on my system with everything enabled and options
  are scattered around it haphazardly.

        http://sr71.net/~dave/linux/kconfig-horror.png

  Let's try to introduce some sanity.  This set takes that 120 lines
  down to 55 and makes it vastly easier to find some things.  It's a
  start.

  This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up
  patches.  The arch-specific debug options still end up getting stuck
  in the top-level "kernel hacking" menu.  OPTIMIZE_INLINING, for
  instance, could obviously go in to the "compiler options" menu, but
  the fact that it is defined in arch/ in a separate Kconfig file keeps
  it on its own for the moment.

  The Signed-off-by's in here look funky.  I changed employers while
  working on this set, so I have signoffs from both email addresses"

d1a1dc0be8 consolidate per-arch stack overflow debugging options
Original posting:

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184202.F54094D9@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com

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
to present the actual menu option.  This removes a bunch of
duplication and adds consistency across arches.

03617c188f KVM: VMX: mark unusable segment as nonpresent
Some userspaces do not preserve unusable property. Since usable
segment has to be present according to VMX spec we can use present
property to amend userspace bug by making unusable segment always
nonpresent. vmx_segment_access_rights() already marks nonpresent segment
as unusable.

Concentrate code to modify totalram_pages into the mm core, so the arch

170a5a7eb2 mm: make __free_pages_bootmem() only available at boot time
In order to simpilify management of totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages, make __free_pages_bootmem() only available at boot
time.  With this change applied, __free_pages_bootmem() will only be
used by bootmem.c and nobootmem.c at boot time, so mark it as __init.
Other callers of __free_pages_bootmem() have been converted to use
free_reserved_page(), which handles totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages in a safer way.

This patch also fix a bug in free_pagetable() for x86_64, which should
increase zone->managed_pages instead of zone->present_pages when freeing
reserved pages.

And now we have managed_pages_count_lock to protect totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages, so remove the redundant ppb_lock lock in
put_page_bootmem().  This greatly simplifies the locking rules.

7b4b2a0d6c mm: accurately calculate zone->managed_pages for highmem zones
Commit "mm: introduce new field 'managed_pages' to struct zone" assumes
that all highmem pages will be freed into the buddy system by function
mem_init().  But that's not always true, some architectures may reserve
some highmem pages during boot.  For example PPC may allocate highmem
pages for giagant HugeTLB pages, and several architectures have code to
check PageReserved flag to exclude highmem pages allocated during boot
when freeing highmem pages into the buddy system.

So treat highmem pages in the same way as normal pages, that is to:
1) reset zone->managed_pages to zero in mem_init().
2) recalculate managed_pages when freeing pages into the buddy system.

0f8975ec4d mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking
The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to.  In order to do this tracking one should

  1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
  2. Wait some time.
  3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)

To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is.  Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.

Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast.  This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.

Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.
