Pull x86 perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This series tightens up RDPMC permissions: currently even highly
sandboxed x86 execution environments (such as seccomp) have permission
to execute RDPMC, which may leak various perf events / PMU state such
as timing information and other CPU execution details.
This 'all is allowed' RDPMC mode is still preserved as the
(non-default) /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc=2 setting. The new default is
that RDPMC access is only allowed if a perf event is mmap-ed (which is
needed to correctly interpret RDPMC counter values in any case).
As a side effect of these changes CR4 handling is cleaned up in the
x86 code and a shadow copy of the CR4 value is added.
The extra CR4 manipulation adds ~ <50ns to the context switch cost

Stack instrumentation allows to detect out of bounds memory accesses for
variables allocated on stack. Compiler adds redzones around every
variable on stack and poisons redzones in function's prologue.
Such approach significantly increases stack usage, so all in-kernel stacks
size were doubled.

Recently instrumentation of builtin functions calls was removed from GCC
5.0. To check the memory accessed by such functions, userspace asan
always uses interceptors for them.
So now we should do this as well. This patch declares
memset/memmove/memcpy as weak symbols. In mm/kasan/kasan.c we have our
own implementation of those functions which checks memory before accessing
it.
Default memset/memmove/memcpy now now always have aliases with '__'
prefix. For files that built without kasan instrumentation (e.g.
mm/slub.c) original mem* replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants,
cause we don't want to check memory accesses there.

This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer.
16TB of virtual addressed used for shadow memory. It's located in range
[ffffec0000000000 - fffffc0000000000] between vmemmap and %esp fixup
stacks.
At early stage we map whole shadow region with zero page. Latter, after
pages mapped to direct mapping address range we unmap zero pages from
corresponding shadow (see kasan_map_shadow()) and allocate and map a real
shadow memory reusing vmemmap_populate() function.
Also replace __pa with __pa_nodebug before shadow initialized. __pa with
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y make external function call (__phys_addr)
__phys_addr is instrumented, so __asan_load could be called before shadow
area initialized.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

This patch removes the NUMA PTE bits and associated helpers. As a
side-effect it increases the maximum possible swap space on x86-64.
One potential source of problems is races between the marking of PTEs
PROT_NONE, NUMA hinting faults and migration. It must be guaranteed that
a PTE being protected is not faulted in parallel, seen as a pte_none and
corrupting memory. The base case is safe but transhuge has problems in
the past due to an different migration mechanism and a dependance on page
lock to serialise migrations and warrants a closer look.
task_work hinting update parallel fault
------------------------ --------------
change_pmd_range
change_huge_pmd
__pmd_trans_huge_lock
pmdp_get_and_clear
__handle_mm_fault
pmd_none
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page
read? pmd_lock blocks until hinting complete, fail !pmd_none test
write? __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page acquires pmd_lock, checks pmd_none
pmd_modify
set_pmd_at
task_work hinting update parallel migration
------------------------ ------------------
change_pmd_range
change_huge_pmd
__pmd_trans_huge_lock
pmdp_get_and_clear
__handle_mm_fault
do_huge_pmd_numa_page
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page
pmd_lock waits for updates to complete, recheck pmd_same
pmd_modify
set_pmd_at
Both of those are safe and the case where a transhuge page is inserted
during a protection update is unchanged. The case where two processes try
migrating at the same time is unchanged by this series so should still be
ok. I could not find a case where we are accidentally depending on the
PTE not being cleared and flushed. If one is missed, it'll manifest as
corruption problems that start triggering shortly after this series is
merged and only happen when NUMA balancing is enabled.

The code:
> 2857 WARN_ON(mm_nr_pmds(mm) >
2858 round_up(FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, PUD_SIZE) >> PUD_SHIFT);
In this, on tile, we have FIRST_USER_ADDRESS defined as 0. round_up() has
the same type -- int. PUD_SHIFT.
I think the best way to fix it is to define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as unsigned
long. On every arch for consistency.

Disappointing, as this was kind of neat (especially getting to use RCU
to manage the address -> eventfd mapping). But now the devices are PCI
handled in userspace, we get rid of both the NOTIFY hypercall and
the interface to connect an eventfd.

Pull live patching infrastructure from Jiri Kosina:
"Let me provide a bit of history first, before describing what is in
this pile.
Originally, there was kSplice as a standalone project that implemented
stop_machine()-based patching for the linux kernel. This project got
later acquired, and the current owner is providing live patching as a
proprietary service, without any intentions to have their
implementation merged.
Then, due to rising user/customer demand, both Red Hat and SUSE
started working on their own implementation (not knowing about each
other), and announced first versions roughly at the same time [1] [2].
The principle difference between the two solutions is how they are
making sure that the patching is performed in a consistent way when it
comes to different execution threads with respect to the semantic
nature of the change that is being introduced.
In a nutshell, kPatch is issuing stop_machine(), then looking at
stacks of all existing processess, and if it decides that the system
is in a state that can be patched safely, it proceeds insterting code
redirection machinery to the patched functions.
On the other hand, kGraft provides a per-thread consistency during one
single pass of a process through the kernel and performs a lazy
contignuous migration of threads from "unpatched" universe to the
"patched" one at safe checkpoints.
If interested in a more detailed discussion about the consistency
models and its possible combinations, please see the thread that
evolved around [3].
It pretty quickly became obvious to the interested parties that it's
absolutely impractical in this case to have several isolated solutions
for one task to co-exist in the kernel. During a dedicated Live
Kernel Patching track at LPC in Dusseldorf, all the interested parties
sat together and came up with a joint aproach that would work for both
distro vendors. Steven Rostedt took notes [4] from this meeting.
And the foundation for that aproach is what's present in this pull
request.
It provides a basic infrastructure for function "live patching" (i.e.
code redirection), including API for kernel modules containing the
actual patches, and API/ABI for userspace to be able to operate on the
patches (look up what patches are applied, enable/disable them, etc).
It's relatively simple and minimalistic, as it's making use of
existing kernel infrastructure (namely ftrace) as much as possible.
It's also self-contained, in a sense that it doesn't hook itself in
any other kernel subsystem (it doesn't even touch any other code).
It's now implemented for x86 only as a reference architecture, but
support for powerpc, s390 and arm is already in the works (adding
arch-specific support basically boils down to teaching ftrace about
regs-saving).
Once this common infrastructure gets merged, both Red Hat and SUSE
have agreed to immediately start porting their current solutions on
top of this, abandoning their out-of-tree code. The plan basically is
that each patch will be marked by flag(s) that would indicate which
consistency model it is willing to use (again, the details have been
sketched out already in the thread at [3]).
Before this happens, the current codebase can be used to patch a large
group of secruity/stability problems the patches for which are not too
complex (in a sense that they don't introduce non-trivial change of
function's return value semantics, they don't change layout of data
structures, etc) -- this corresponds to LEAVE_FUNCTION &&
SWITCH_FUNCTION semantics described at [3].

Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:
"Bite-sized chunks this time, to avoid the MTA ratelimiting woes.
- fs/notify updates
- ocfs2
- some of MM"
That laconic "some MM" is mainly the removal of remap_file_pages(),
which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.
From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.
The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

Some PCI device drivers assume that pci_dev->irq won't change after
calling pci_disable_device() and pci_enable_device() during suspend and
resume.
Commit c03b3b0738 ("x86, irq, mpparse: Release IOAPIC pin when
PCI device is disabled") frees PCI IRQ resources when pci_disable_device()
is called and reallocate IRQ resources when pci_enable_device() is
called again. This breaks above assumption. So commit 3eec595235
("x86, irq, PCI: Keep IRQ assignment for PCI devices during
suspend/hibernation") and 9eabc99a63 ("x86, irq, PCI: Keep IRQ
assignment for runtime power management") fix the issue by avoiding
freeing/reallocating IRQ resources during PCI device suspend/resume.
They achieve this by checking dev.power.is_prepared and
dev.power.runtime_status. PM maintainer, Rafael, then pointed out that
it's really an ugly fix which leaking PM internal state information to
IRQ subsystem.
Recently David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> also reports an
regression in pciback driver caused by commit cffe0a2b5a ("x86, irq:
Keep balance of IOAPIC pin reference count"). Please refer to:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/14/546
So this patch refine the way to release PCI IRQ resources. Instead of
releasing PCI IRQ resources in pci_disable_device()/
pcibios_disable_device(), we now release it at driver unbinding
notification BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER. In other word, we only release
PCI IRQ resources when there's no driver bound to the PCI device, and
it keeps the assumption that pci_dev->irq won't through multiple
invocation of pci_enable_device()/pci_disable_device().

While perfmon2 is a sufficiently evil library (it pokes MSRs
directly) that breaking it is fair game, it's still useful, so we
might as well try to support it. This allows users to write 2 to
/sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc to disable all rdpmc protection so that hack
like perfmon2 can continue to work.
At some point, if perf_event becomes fast enough to replace
perfmon2, then this can go.

We currently allow any process to use rdpmc. This significantly
weakens the protection offered by PR_TSC_DISABLED, and it could be
helpful to users attempting to exploit timing attacks.
Since we can't enable access to individual counters, use a very
coarse heuristic to limit access to rdpmc: allow access only when
a perf_event is mmapped. This protects seccomp sandboxes.
There is plenty of room to further tighen these restrictions. For
example, this allows rdpmc for any x86_pmu event, but it's only
useful for self-monitoring tasks.
As a side effect, cap_user_rdpmc will now be false for AMD uncore
events. This isn't a real regression, since .event_idx is disabled
for these events anyway for the time being. Whenever that gets
re-added, the cap_user_rdpmc code can be adjusted or refactored
accordingly.

Context switches and TLB flushes can change individual bits of CR4.
CR4 reads take several cycles, so store a shadow copy of CR4 in a
per-cpu variable.
To avoid wasting a cache line, I added the CR4 shadow to
cpu_tlbstate, which is already touched in switch_mm. The heaviest
users of the cr4 shadow will be switch_mm and __switch_to_xtra, and
__switch_to_xtra is called shortly after switch_mm during context
switch, so the cacheline is likely to be hot.

CR4 manipulation was split, seemingly at random, between direct
(write_cr4) and using a helper (set/clear_in_cr4). Unfortunately,
the set_in_cr4 and clear_in_cr4 helpers also poke at the boot code,
which only a small subset of users actually wanted.
This patch replaces all cr4 access in functions that don't leave cr4
exactly the way they found it with new helpers cr4_set_bits,
cr4_clear_bits, and cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot.

This patch adds new mmu layer functions to clear/set D-bit for memory slot, and
to write protect superpages for memory slot.
In case of PML, CPU logs the dirty GPA automatically to PML buffer when CPU
updates D-bit from 0 to 1, therefore we don't have to write protect 4K pages,
instead, we only need to clear D-bit in order to log that GPA.
For superpages, we still write protect it and let page fault code to handle
dirty page logging, as we still need to split superpage to 4K pages in PML.
As PML is always enabled during guest's lifetime, to eliminate unnecessary PML
GPA logging, we set D-bit manually for the slot with dirty logging disabled.

The scratch frame mappings for ballooned pages and the m2p override
are broken. Remove them in preparation for replacing them with
simpler mechanisms that works.
The scratch pages did not ensure that the page was not in use. In
particular, the foreign page could still be in use by hardware. If
the guest reused the frame the hardware could read or write that
frame.
The m2p override did not handle the same frame being granted by two
different grant references. Trying an M2P override lookup in this
case is impossible.
With the m2p override removed, the grant map/unmap for the kernel
mappings (for x86 PV) can be easily batched in
set_foreign_p2m_mapping() and clear_foreign_p2m_mapping().

The Witcher 2 did something like this to allocate a TLS segment index:
struct user_desc u_info;
bzero(&u_info, sizeof(u_info));
u_info.entry_number = (uint32_t)-1;
syscall(SYS_set_thread_area, &u_info);
Strictly speaking, this code was never correct. It should have set
read_exec_only and seg_not_present to 1 to indicate that it wanted
to find a free slot without putting anything there, or it should
have put something sensible in the TLS slot if it wanted to allocate
a TLS entry for real. The actual effect of this code was to
allocate a bogus segment that could be used to exploit espfix.
The set_thread_area hardening patches changed the behavior, causing
set_thread_area to return -EINVAL and crashing the game.
This changes set_thread_area to interpret this as a request to find
a free slot and to leave it empty, which isn't *quite* what the game
expects but should be close enough to keep it working. In
particular, using the code above to allocate two segments will
allocate the same segment both times.
According to FrostbittenKing on Github, this fixes The Witcher 2.
If this somehow still causes problems, we could instead allocate
a limit==0 32-bit data segment, but that seems rather ugly to me.

The 3.19 merge window saw some TLB modifications merged which caused a
performance regression. They were fixed in commit 045bbb9fa.
Once that fix was applied, I also noticed that there was a small
but intermittent regression still present. It was not present
consistently enough to bisect reliably, but I'm fairly confident
that it came from (my own) MPX patches. The source was reading
a relatively unused field in the mm_struct via arch_unmap.
I also noted that this code was in the main instruction flow of
do_munmap() and probably had more icache impact than we want.
This patch does two things:
1. Adds a static (via Kconfig) and dynamic (via cpuid) check
for MPX with cpu_feature_enabled(). This keeps us from
reading that cacheline in the mm and trades it for a check
of the global CPUID variables at least on CPUs without MPX.
2. Adds an unlikely() to ensure that the MPX call ends up out
of the main instruction flow in do_munmap(). I've added
a detailed comment about why this was done and why we want
it even on systems where MPX is present.
