The previous commit added macro calls in the entry code which mitigate the
Spectre v1 swapgs issue if the X86_FEATURE_FENCE_SWAPGS_* features are
enabled. Enable those features where applicable.
The mitigations may be disabled with "nospectre_v1" or "mitigations=off".
There are different features which can affect the risk of attack:
- When FSGSBASE is enabled, unprivileged users are able to place any
value in GS, using the wrgsbase instruction. This means they can
write a GS value which points to any value in kernel space, which can
be useful with the following gadget in an interrupt/exception/NMI
handler:
if (coming from user space)
swapgs
mov %gs:<percpu_offset>, %reg1
// dependent load or store based on the value of %reg
// for example: mov %(reg1), %reg2
If an interrupt is coming from user space, and the entry code
speculatively skips the swapgs (due to user branch mistraining), it
may speculatively execute the GS-based load and a subsequent dependent
load or store, exposing the kernel data to an L1 side channel leak.
Note that, on Intel, a similar attack exists in the above gadget when
coming from kernel space, if the swapgs gets speculatively executed to
switch back to the user GS. On AMD, this variant isn't possible
because swapgs is serializing with respect to future GS-based
accesses.
NOTE: The FSGSBASE patch set hasn't been merged yet, so the above case
doesn't exist quite yet.
- When FSGSBASE is disabled, the issue is mitigated somewhat because
unprivileged users must use prctl(ARCH_SET_GS) to set GS, which
restricts GS values to user space addresses only. That means the
gadget would need an additional step, since the target kernel address
needs to be read from user space first. Something like:
if (coming from user space)
swapgs
mov %gs:<percpu_offset>, %reg1
mov (%reg1), %reg2
// dependent load or store based on the value of %reg2
// for example: mov %(reg2), %reg3
It's difficult to audit for this gadget in all the handlers, so while
there are no known instances of it, it's entirely possible that it
exists somewhere (or could be introduced in the future). Without
tooling to analyze all such code paths, consider it vulnerable.
Effects of SMAP on the !FSGSBASE case:
- If SMAP is enabled, and the CPU reports RDCL_NO (i.e., not
susceptible to Meltdown), the kernel is prevented from speculatively
reading user space memory, even L1 cached values. This effectively
disables the !FSGSBASE attack vector.
- If SMAP is enabled, but the CPU *is* susceptible to Meltdown, SMAP
still prevents the kernel from speculatively reading user space
memory. But it does *not* prevent the kernel from reading the
user value from L1, if it has already been cached. This is probably
only a small hurdle for an attacker to overcome.
Thanks to Dave Hansen for contributing the speculative_smap() function.
Thanks to Andrew Cooper for providing the inside scoop on whether swapgs
is serializing on AMD.

With vsyscall emulation on, a readable vsyscall page is still exposed that
contains syscall instructions that validly implement the vsyscalls.
This is required because certain dynamic binary instrumentation tools
attempt to read the call targets of call instructions in the instrumented
code. If the instrumented code uses vsyscalls, then the vsyscall page needs
to contain readable code.
Unfortunately, leaving readable memory at a deterministic address can be
used to help various ASLR bypasses, so some hardening value can be gained
by disallowing vsyscall reads.
Given how rarely the vsyscall page needs to be readable, add a mechanism to
make the vsyscall page be execute only.

Some workloads need to change kthread priority for RCU core processing
without affecting other softirq work. This commit therefore introduces
the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter, which moves the RCU core
work from softirq to a per-CPU SCHED_OTHER kthread named rcuc. Use of
SCHED_OTHER approach avoids the scalability problems that appeared
with the earlier attempt to move RCU core processing to from softirq
to kthreads. That said, kernels built with RCU_BOOST=y will run the
rcuc kthreads at the RCU-boosting priority.
Note that rcutree.use_softirq=0 must be specified to move RCU core
processing to the rcuc kthreads: rcutree.use_softirq=1 is the default.

The maximum number of unique System V IPC identifiers was limited to
32k. That limit should be big enough for most use cases.
However, there are some users out there requesting for more, especially
those that are migrating from Solaris which uses 24 bits for unique
identifiers. To satisfy the need of those users, a new boot time kernel
option "ipcmni_extend" is added to extend the IPCMNI value to 16M. This
is a 512X increase which should be big enough for users out there that
need a large number of unique IPC identifier.
The use of this new option will change the pattern of the IPC
identifiers returned by functions like shmget(2). An application that
depends on such pattern may not work properly. So it should only be
used if the users really need more than 32k of unique IPC numbers.
This new option does have the side effect of reducing the maximum number
of unique sequence numbers from 64k down to 128. So it is a trade-off.
The computation of a new IPC id is not done in the performance critical
path. So a little bit of additional overhead shouldn't have any real
performance impact.

Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit cc9aec03e5
("x86/numa_emulation: Introduce uniform split capability"). With this
numa_emulation capability, memory can be split into cache sized
("near-memory" sized) numa nodes. A bind operation to such a node, and
disabling workloads on other nodes, enables full cache performance.
However, once the workload exceeds the cache size then cache conflicts
are unavoidable. While HPC environments might be able to tolerate
time-scheduling of cache sized workloads, for general purpose server
platforms, the oversubscribed cache case will be the common case.
The worst case scenario is that a server system owner benchmarks a
workload at boot with an un-contended cache only to see that performance
degrade over time, even below the average cache performance due to
excessive conflicts. Randomization clips the peaks and fills in the
valleys of cache utilization to yield steady average performance.
Here are some performance impact details of the patches:
1/ An Intel internal synthetic memory bandwidth measurement tool, saw a
3X speedup in a contrived case that tries to force cache conflicts.
The contrived cased used the numa_emulation capability to force an
instance of the benchmark to be run in two of the near-memory sized
numa nodes. If both instances were placed on the same emulated they
would fit and cause zero conflicts. While on separate emulated nodes
without randomization they underutilized the cache and conflicted
unnecessarily due to the in-order allocation per node.
2/ A well known Java server application benchmark was run with a heap
size that exceeded cache size by 3X. The cache conflict rate was 8%
for the first run and degraded to 21% after page allocator aging. With
randomization enabled the rate levelled out at 11%.
3/ A MongoDB workload did not observe measurable difference in
cache-conflict rates, but the overall throughput dropped by 7% with
randomization in one case.
4/ Mel Gorman ran his suite of performance workloads with randomization
enabled on platforms without a memory-side-cache and saw a mix of some
improvements and some losses [3].
While there is potentially significant improvement for applications that
depend on low latency access across a wide working-set, the performance
may be negligible to negative for other workloads. For this reason the
shuffle capability defaults to off unless a direct-mapped
memory-side-cache is detected. Even then, the page_alloc.shuffle=0
parameter can be specified to disable the randomization on those systems.
Outside of memory-side-cache utilization concerns there is potentially
security benefit from randomization. Some data exfiltration and
return-oriented-programming attacks rely on the ability to infer the
location of sensitive data objects. The kernel page allocator, especially
early in system boot, has predictable first-in-first out behavior for
physical pages. Pages are freed in physical address order when first
onlined.
Quoting Kees:
"While we already have a base-address randomization
(CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY), attacks against the same hardware and
memory layouts would certainly be using the predictability of
allocation ordering (i.e. for attacks where the base address isn't
important: only the relative positions between allocated memory).
This is common in lots of heap-style attacks. They try to gain
control over ordering by spraying allocations, etc.
I'd really like to see this because it gives us something similar
to CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM but for the page allocator."
While SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM reduces the predictability of some local slab
caches it leaves vast bulk of memory to be predictably in order allocated.
However, it should be noted, the concrete security benefits are hard to
quantify, and no known CVE is mitigated by this randomization.
Introduce shuffle_free_memory(), and its helper shuffle_zone(), to perform
a Fisher-Yates shuffle of the page allocator 'free_area' lists when they
are initially populated with free memory at boot and at hotplug time. Do
this based on either the presence of a page_alloc.shuffle=Y command line
parameter, or autodetection of a memory-side-cache (to be added in a
follow-on patch).
The shuffling is done in terms of CONFIG_SHUFFLE_PAGE_ORDER sized free
pages where the default CONFIG_SHUFFLE_PAGE_ORDER is MAX_ORDER-1 i.e. 10,
4MB this trades off randomization granularity for time spent shuffling.
MAX_ORDER-1 was chosen to be minimally invasive to the page allocator
while still showing memory-side cache behavior improvements, and the
expectation that the security implications of finer granularity
randomization is mitigated by CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM. The
performance impact of the shuffling appears to be in the noise compared to
other memory initialization work.
This initial randomization can be undone over time so a follow-on patch is
introduced to inject entropy on page free decisions. It is reasonable to
ask if the page free entropy is sufficient, but it is not enough due to
the in-order initial freeing of pages. At the start of that process
putting page1 in front or behind page0 still keeps them close together,
page2 is still near page1 and has a high chance of being adjacent. As
more pages are added ordering diversity improves, but there is still high
page locality for the low address pages and this leads to no significant
impact to the cache conflict rate.

Pull x86 MDS mitigations from Thomas Gleixner:
"Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) is a hardware vulnerability
which allows unprivileged speculative access to data which is
available in various CPU internal buffers. This new set of misfeatures
has the following CVEs assigned:
CVE-2018-12126 MSBDS Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12130 MFBDS Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12127 MLPDS Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling
CVE-2019-11091 MDSUM Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory
MDS attacks target microarchitectural buffers which speculatively
forward data under certain conditions. Disclosure gadgets can expose
this data via cache side channels.
Contrary to other speculation based vulnerabilities the MDS
vulnerability does not allow the attacker to control the memory target
address. As a consequence the attacks are purely sampling based, but
as demonstrated with the TLBleed attack samples can be postprocessed
successfully.
The mitigation is to flush the microarchitectural buffers on return to
user space and before entering a VM. It's bolted on the VERW
instruction and requires a microcode update. As some of the attacks
exploit data structures shared between hyperthreads, full protection
requires to disable hyperthreading. The kernel does not do that by
default to avoid breaking unattended updates.
The mitigation set comes with documentation for administrators and a
deeper technical view"

Highlights:
- Support for Kernel Userspace Access/Execution Prevention (like
SMAP/SMEP/PAN/PXN) on some 64-bit and 32-bit CPUs. This prevents the kernel
from accidentally accessing userspace outside copy_to/from_user(), or
ever executing userspace.
- KASAN support on 32-bit.
- Rework of where we map the kernel, vmalloc, etc. on 64-bit hash to use the
same address ranges we use with the Radix MMU.
- A rewrite into C of large parts of our idle handling code for 64-bit Book3S
(ie. power8 & power9).
- A fast path entry for syscalls on 32-bit CPUs, for a 12-17% speedup in the
null_syscall benchmark.
- On 64-bit bare metal we have support for recovering from errors with the time
base (our clocksource), however if that fails currently we hang in __delay()
and never crash. We now have support for detecting that case and short
circuiting __delay() so we at least panic() and reboot.
- Add support for optionally enabling the DAWR on Power9, which had to be
disabled by default due to a hardware erratum. This has the effect of
enabling hardware breakpoints for GDB, the downside is a badly behaved
program could crash the machine by pointing the DAWR at cache inhibited
memory. This is opt-in obviously.
- xmon, our crash handler, gets support for a read only mode where operations
that could change memory or otherwise disturb the system are disabled.
Plus many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

Pull in core support for the "mitigations=" cmdline option from Thomas
Gleixner via -tip, which we can build on top of when we expose our
mitigation state via sysfs.
Add a new command-line option "xen_timer_slop=<INT>" that sets the
minimum delta of virtual Xen timers. This commit does not change the
default timer slop value for virtual Xen timers.
Lowering the timer slop value should improve the accuracy of virtual
timers (e.g., better process dispatch latency), but it will likely
increase the number of virtual timer interrupts (relative to the
original slop setting).
The original timer slop value has not changed since the introduction
of the Xen-aware Linux kernel code. This commit provides users an
opportunity to tune timer performance given the refinements to
hardware and the Xen event channel processing. It also mirrors
a feature in the Xen hypervisor - the "timer_slop" Xen command line
option.

crashkernel=xM tries to reserve memory for the crash kernel under 4G,
which is enough, usually. But this could fail sometimes, for example
when one tries to reserve a big chunk like 2G, for example.
So let the crashkernel=xM just fall back to use high memory in case it
fails to find a suitable low range. Do not set the ,high as default
because it allocates extra low memory for DMA buffers and swiotlb, and
this is not always necessary for all machines.
Typically, crashkernel=128M usually works with low reservation under 4G,
so keep <4G as default.

This patch implements a framework for Kernel Userspace Access
Protection.
Then subarches will have the possibility to provide their own
implementation by providing setup_kuap() and
allow/prevent_user_access().
Some platforms will need to know the area accessed and whether it is
accessed from read, write or both. Therefore source, destination and
size and handed over to the two functions.
mpe: Rename to allow/prevent rather than unlock/lock, and add
read/write wrappers. Drop the 32-bit code for now until we have an
implementation for it. Add kuap to pt_regs for 64-bit as well as
32-bit. Don't split strings, use pr_crit_ratelimited().

Keeping track of the number of mitigations for all the CPU speculation
bugs has become overwhelming for many users. It's getting more and more
complicated to decide which mitigations are needed for a given
architecture. Complicating matters is the fact that each arch tends to
have its own custom way to mitigate the same vulnerability.
Most users fall into a few basic categories:
a) they want all mitigations off;
b) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT enabled even if
it's vulnerable; or
c) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT disabled if
vulnerable.
Define a set of curated, arch-independent options, each of which is an
aggregation of existing options:
- mitigations=off: Disable all mitigations.
- mitigations=auto: [default] Enable all the default mitigations, but
leave SMT enabled, even if it's vulnerable.
- mitigations=auto,nosmt: Enable all the default mitigations, disabling
SMT if needed by a mitigation.
Currently, these options are placeholders which don't actually do
anything. They will be fleshed out in upcoming patches.

Currently, the rcu_nocbs= kernel boot parameter requires that a specific
list of CPUs be specified, and has no way to say "all of them".
As noted by user RavFX in a comment to Phoronix topic 1002538, this
is an inconvenient side effect of the removal of the RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL
Kconfig option. This commit therefore enables the rcu_nocbs= kernel boot
parameter to be given the string "all", as in "rcu_nocbs=all" to specify
that all CPUs on the system are to have their RCU callbacks offloaded.
Another approach would be to make cpulist_parse() check for "all", but
there are uses of cpulist_parse() that do other checking, which could
conflict with an "all". This commit therefore focuses on the specific
use of cpulist_parse() in rcu_nocb_setup().
Just a note to other people who would like changes to Linux-kernel RCU:
If you send your requests to me directly, they might get fixed somewhat
faster. RavFX's comment was posted on January 22, 2018 and I first saw
it on March 5, 2019. And the only reason that I found it -at- -all- was
that I was looking for projects using RCU, and my search engine showed
me that Phoronix comment quite by accident. Your choice, though! ;-)

Now that the mitigations are in place, add a command line parameter to
control the mitigation, a mitigation selector function and a SMT update
mechanism.
This is the minimal straight forward initial implementation which just
provides an always on/off mode. The command line parameter is:
mds=[full|off]
This is consistent with the existing mitigations for other speculative
hardware vulnerabilities.
The idle invocation is dynamically updated according to the SMT state of
the system similar to the dynamic update of the STIBP mitigation. The idle
mitigation is limited to CPUs which are only affected by MSBDS and not any
other variant, because the other variants cannot be mitigated on SMT
enabled systems.

devices based on policy. We however to do not want to wait for userspace to
come up before initializing fixed USB devices to not regress our boot
times.
This patch adds option to instruct the kernel to only authorize devices
connected to the internal ports. Previously we could either authorize
all or none (or, by default, we'd only authorize wired devices).
The behavior is controlled via usbcore.authorized_default command line

The netfilter conflicts were rather simple overlapping

However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex.
On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory
leaks. Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding
the rtnl-ness support.
What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the
conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back
to pure RCU. I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's
races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to
implement the race fix slightly differently.

Asynchronous driver probing can help much on kernel fastboot, and
this option can provide a flexible way to optimize and quickly verify
async driver probe.
Also it will help in below cases:
* Some driver actually covers several families of HWs, some of which
could use async probing while others don't. So we can't simply
turn on the PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS flag in driver, but use this
cmdline option, like igb driver async patch discussed at
https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg545986.html
* For SOC (System on Chip) with multiple spi or i2c controllers, most
of the slave spi/i2c devices will be assigned with fixed controller
number, while async probing may make those controllers get different
index for each boot, which prevents those controller drivers to be
async probed. For platforms not using these spi/i2c slave devices,
they can use this cmdline option to benefit from the async probing.

The documentation for deadline was retained because it carries over to
mq-deadline as well, but location of the doc file was changed over time.
The old iosched algorithms were removed from elevator= kernel parameter
and mq-deadline, kyber and bfq were added with a reference to their
documentation.
Fixes: f382fb0bce ("block: remove legacy IO schedulers")

Move the x86 EFI earlyprintk implementation to a shared location under
drivers/firmware and tweak it slightly so we can expose it as an earlycon
implementation (which is generic) rather than earlyprintk (which is only
implemented for a few architectures)
This also involves switching to write-combine mappings by default (which
is required on ARM since device mappings lack memory semantics, and so
memcpy/memset may not be used on them), and adding support for shared
memory framebuffers on cache coherent non-x86 systems (which do not
tolerate mismatched attributes).
Note that 32-bit ARM does not populate its struct screen_info early
enough for earlycon=efifb to work, so it is disabled there.

commit 3fb72f1e6e ("ipconfig wait for carrier") added a
"wait for carrier" policy, with a fixed worst case maximum wait
of two minutes.
Now make the wait for carrier timeout configurable on the kernel
commandline and use the 120s as the default.
The timeout messages introduced with
commit 5e404cd658 ("ipconfig: add informative timeout messages while
waiting for carrier") are done in a fixed interval of 20 seconds, just
like they were before (240/12).

Commit 765b6a98c1 ("iommu/vt-d: Enumerate the scalable
mode capability") enables VT-d scalable mode if hardware
advertises the capability. As we will bring up different
features and use cases to upstream in different patch
series, it will leave some intermediate kernel versions
which support partial features. Hence, end user might run
into problems when they use such kernels on bare metals
or virtualization environments.
This leaves scalable mode default off and end users could
turn it on with "intel-iommu=sm_on" only when they have
clear ideas about which scalable features are supported
in the kernel.

A few updates that we merged late but are low risk for regressions for
other platforms (and a few other straggling patches):
- I mis-tagged the 'drivers' branch, and missed 3 patches. Merged in
here. They're for a driver for the PL353 SRAM controller and a build
fix for the qualcomm scm driver.
- A new platform, RDA Micro RDA8810PL (Cortex-A5 w/ integrated Vivante
GPU, 256MB RAM, Wifi). This includes some acked platform-specific
drivers (serial, etc). This also include DTs for two boards with this
SoC, OrangePi 2G and OrangePi i86.
- i.MX8 is another new platform (NXP, 4x Cortex-A53 + Cortex-M4, 4K
video playback offload). This is the first i.MX 64-bit SoC.
- Some minor updates to Samsung boards (adding a few peripherals in

- Small rework for SMP bootup on STi platforms.
- A couple of TEE driver fixes.
- A couple of new config options (bcm2835 thermal, Uniphier MDMAC)

Kernel panic issues are always painful to debug, partially because it's
not easy to get enough information of the context when panic happens.
And we have ramoops and kdump for that, while this commit tries to
provide a easier way to show the system info by adding a cmdline
parameter, referring some idea from sysrq handler.

It can be useful to inhibit all cgroup1 hierarchies especially during

controllers which leaves out the named hierarchies. Expand it to
cover the named hierarchies so that "cgroup_no_v1=all,named" disables
all cgroup1 hierarchies.

Swap storage is restricted to max_swapfile_size (~16TB on x86_64) whenever
the system is deemed affected by L1TF vulnerability. Even though the limit
is quite high for most deployments it seems to be too restrictive for
deployments which are willing to live with the mitigation disabled.
We have a customer to deploy 8x 6,4TB PCIe/NVMe SSD swap devices which is
clearly out of the limit.
Drop the swap restriction when l1tf=off is specified. It also doesn't make
much sense to warn about too much memory for the l1tf mitigation when it is
forcefully disabled by the administrator.

The Intel vt-d spec rev3.0 introduces a new translation
mode called scalable mode, which enables PASID-granular
translations for first level, second level, nested and
pass-through modes. At the same time, the previous
Extended Context (ECS) mode is deprecated (no production
ever implements ECS).
This patch adds enumeration for Scalable Mode and removes
the deprecated ECS enumeration. It provides a boot time
option to disable scalable mode even hardware claims to
support it.

Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit
shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like
users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others.
With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set
from the commandline, this is a challenge. Do the following things to
make it easier:
1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros
to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled
unless a user requests it at boot-time.
To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=.
2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs
when the feature is disabled.
In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says:

If 'prctl' mode of user space protection from spectre v2 is selected
on the kernel command-line, STIBP and IBPB are applied on tasks which
restrict their indirect branch speculation via prctl.
SECCOMP enables the SSBD mitigation for sandboxed tasks already, so it
makes sense to prevent spectre v2 user space to user space attacks as
well.
The Intel mitigation guide documents how STIPB works:
Setting bit 1 (STIBP) of the IA32_SPEC_CTRL MSR on a logical processor
prevents the predicted targets of indirect branches on any logical
processor of that core from being controlled by software that executes
(or executed previously) on another logical processor of the same core.
Ergo setting STIBP protects the task itself from being attacked from a task
running on a different hyper-thread and protects the tasks running on
different hyper-threads from being attacked.
While the document suggests that the branch predictors are shielded between
the logical processors, the observed performance regressions suggest that
STIBP simply disables the branch predictor more or less completely. Of
course the document wording is vague, but the fact that there is also no
requirement for issuing IBPB when STIBP is used points clearly in that
direction. The kernel still issues IBPB even when STIBP is used until Intel
clarifies the whole mechanism.
IBPB is issued when the task switches out, so malicious sandbox code cannot
mistrain the branch predictor for the next user space task on the same
logical processor.

Add command line control for user space indirect branch speculation
mitigations. The new option is: spectre_v2_user=
The initial options are:
- on: Unconditionally enabled
- off: Unconditionally disabled
-auto: Kernel selects mitigation (default off for now)
When the spectre_v2= command line argument is either 'on' or 'off' this
implies that the application to application control follows that state even
if a contradicting spectre_v2_user= argument is supplied.

The hard and soft lockup detector threshold has a default value of 10
seconds which can only be changed via sysctl.
During early boot lockup detection can trigger when noisy debugging emits
a large amount of messages to the console, but there is no way to set a
larger threshold on the kernel command line. The detector can only be
completely disabled.
Add a new watchdog_thresh= command line parameter to allow boot time
control over the threshold. It works in the same way as the sysctl and

Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5.
The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize
each node worth of persistent memory independently. As a result we reduce
page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40
seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all
4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread
evenly over 4 nodes.
This patch (of 3):
On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount
of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN
value. I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with
over 12TB of RAM.
In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and
then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the
arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds. However in
doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system.
In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled
on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel
parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.

Notable changes:
- A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of fairly
complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.
- Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for each
process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27% speedup for our
context switch benchmark on Power9.
- Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print more debug
information when they occur, and try to continue running by flushing the SLB
and reloading, rather than treating them as fatal.
- Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).
- Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on 64-bit
Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system memory, otherwise the
percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.
- Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task canary.
- Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.
- Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are presented
to us as a single SMT8 core.
- A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE flags.
- Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface, allowing
guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).
- Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we need to use
a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().
Many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.

UART devices which have the wrong PCI class code. In that case, the
current class code check does not allow for them to be used for logging.
Add a sub-option "force" which overrides the class code check and thus
the use of such device can be enforced.

Pull v4.20 RCU changes from Paul E. McKenney:
- Documentation updates, including some good-eye catches from
Joel Fernandes.
- SRCU updates, most notably changes enabling call_srcu() to be
invoked very early in the boot sequence.
- Torture-test updates, including some preliminary work towards
making rcutorture better able to find problems that result in
insufficient grace-period forward progress.
- Consolidate the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors into
a single flavor similar to RCU-sched in !PREEMPT kernels and
into a single flavor similar to RCU-preempt (but also waiting
on preempt-disabled sequences of code) in PREEMPT kernels. This
branch also includes a refactoring of rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}()
from Byungchul Park.
- Now that there is only one RCU flavor in any given running kernel,
the many "rsp" pointers are no longer required, and this cleanup
series removes them.
- This branch carries out additional cleanups made possible by
the RCU flavor consolidation, including inlining how-trivial
functions, updating comments and definitions, and removing
now-unneeded rcutorture scenarios.
- Initial changes to RCU to better promote forward progress of
grace periods, including fixing a bug found by Marius Hillenbrand
and David Woodhouse, with the fix suggested by Peter Zijlstra.
- Now that there is only one flavor of RCU in any running kernel,
there is also only on rcu_data structure per CPU. This means
that the rcu_dynticks structure can be merged into the rcu_data
structure, a task taken on by this branch. This branch also
contains a -rt-related fix from Mike Galbraith.

Implements counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and
newer). This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding
unnecessary MSR writes and make it more accurate.
The Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler is substantially different than
the older PMI handler.
Differences to the old handler:
- It relies on counter freezing, which eliminates several MSR
writes from the PMI handler and lowers the overhead significantly.
It makes the PMI handler more accurate, as all counters get
frozen atomically as soon as any counter overflows. So there is
much less counting of the PMI handler itself.
With the freezing we don't need to disable or enable counters or
PEBS. Only BTS which does not support auto-freezing still needs to
be explicitly managed.
- The PMU acking is done at the end, not the beginning.
This makes it possible to avoid manual enabling/disabling
of the PMU, instead we just rely on the freezing/acking.
- The APIC is acked before reenabling the PMU, which avoids
problems with LBRs occasionally not getting unfreezed on Skylake.
- Looping is only needed to workaround a corner case which several PMIs
are very close to each other. For common cases, the counters are freezed
during PMI handler. It doesn't need to do re-check.
This patch:
- Adds code to enable v4 counter freezing
- Fork <=v3 and >=v4 PMI handlers into separate functions.
- Add kernel parameter to disable counter freezing. It took some time to
debug counter freezing, so in case there are new problems we added an
option to turn it off. Would not expect this to be used until there
are new bugs.
- Only for big core. The patch for small core will be posted later
separately.
Performance:
When profiling a kernel build on Kabylake with different perf options,
measuring the length of all NMI handlers using the nmi handler
trace point:
V3 is without counter freezing.
V4 is with counter freezing.
The value is the average cost of the PMI handler.
(lower is better)

Scrubbing pages on initial balloon down can take some time, especially
in nested virtualization case (nested EPT is slow). When HVM/PVH guest is
started with memory= significantly lower than maxmem=, all the extra
pages will be scrubbed before returning to Xen. But since most of them
weren't used at all at that point, Xen needs to populate them first
(from populate-on-demand pool). In nested virt case (Xen inside KVM)
this slows down the guest boot by 15-30s with just 1.5GB needed to be
returned to Xen.
Add runtime parameter to enable/disable it, to allow initially disabling
scrubbing, then enable it back during boot (for example in initramfs).
Such usage relies on assumption that a) most pages ballooned out during
initial boot weren't used at all, and b) even if they were, very few
secrets are in the guest at that time (before any serious userspace
kicks in).
Convert CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES to CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES_DEFAULT (also
enabled by default), controlling default value for the new runtime
switch.

The jiffies_till_sched_qs value used to determine how old a grace period
must be before RCU enlists the help of the scheduler to force a quiescent
state on the holdout CPU. Currently, this defaults to HZ/10 regardless of
system size and may be set only at boot time. This can be a problem for
very large systems, because if the values of the jiffies_till_first_fqs
and jiffies_till_next_fqs kernel parameters are left at their defaults,
they are calculated to increase as the number of CPUs actually configured
on the system increases. Thus, on a sufficiently large system, RCU would
enlist the help of the scheduler before the grace-period kthread had a
chance to scan for idle CPUs, which wastes CPU time.
This commit therefore allows jiffies_till_sched_qs to be set, if desired,
but if left as default, computes is as jiffies_till_first_fqs plus twice
jiffies_till_next_fqs, thus allowing three force-quiescent-state scans
for idle CPUs. This scales with the number of CPUs, providing sensible
default values.

Now that the RCU-bh and RCU-sched update-side functions are simple
wrappers around their RCU counterparts, there isn't a whole lot of

Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

To support peer-to-peer traffic on a segment of the PCI hierarchy, we must
disable the ACS redirect bits for select PCI bridges. The bridges must be
selected before the devices are discovered by the kernel and the IOMMU
groups created. Therefore, add a kernel command line parameter to specify
devices which must have their ACS bits disabled.
The new parameter takes a list of devices separated by a semicolon. Each
device specified will have its ACS redirect bits disabled. This is
similar to the existing 'resource_alignment' parameter.
The ACS Request P2P Request Redirect, P2P Completion Redirect and P2P
Egress Control bits are disabled, which is sufficient to always allow
passing P2P traffic uninterrupted. The bits are set after the kernel
(optionally) enables the ACS bits itself. It is also done regardless of
whether the kernel or platform firmware sets the bits.
If the user tries to disable the ACS redirect for a device without the ACS
capability, print a warning to dmesg.

When specifying PCI devices on the kernel command line using a
bus/device/function address, bus numbers can change when adding or
replacing a device, changing motherboard firmware, or applying kernel
parameters like "pci=assign-buses". When bus numbers change, it's likely
the command line tweak will be applied to the wrong device.
Therefore, it is useful to be able to specify devices with a base bus
number and the path of devfns needed to get to it, similar to the "device
scope" structure in the Intel VT-d spec, Section 8.3.1.
Thus, we add an option to specify devices in the following format:
[<domain>:]<bus>:<device>.<func>[/<device>.<func>]*
The path can be any segment within the PCI hierarchy of any length and
determined through the use of 'lspci -t'. When specified this way, it is
less likely that a renumbered bus will result in a valid device
specification and the tweak won't be applied to the wrong device.

Separate out the code to match a PCI device with a string (typically
originating from a kernel parameter) from the
pci_specified_resource_alignment() function into its own helper function.
While we are at it, this change fixes the kernel style of the function
(fixing a number of long lines and extra parentheses).
Additionally, make the analogous change to the kernel parameter
documentation: Separate the description of how to specify a PCI device
into its own section at the head of the "pci=" parameter.
This patch should have no functional alterations.

This allows the default behavior to be controlled by a kernel config
option instead of changing the commandline for the kernel to include
"iommu.passthrough=on" or "iommu=pt" on machines where this is desired.
Likewise, for machines where this config option is enabled, it can be
disabled at boot time with "iommu.passthrough=off" or "iommu=nopt".
Also corrected iommu=pt documentation for IA-64, since it has no code that
parses iommu= at all.

Currently printing [hashed] pointers requires enough entropy to be
available. Early in the boot sequence this may not be the case
resulting in a dummy string '(____ptrval____)' being printed. This
makes debugging the early boot sequence difficult. We can relax the
requirement to use cryptographically secure hashing during debugging.
This enables debugging while keeping development/production kernel
behaviour the same.
If new command line option debug_boot_weak_hash is enabled use
cryptographically insecure hashing and hash pointer value immediately.

Pull RCU updates from Paul E. McKenney:
- An optimization and a fix for RCU expedited grace periods, with
the fix being from Boqun Feng.
- Miscellaneous fixes, including a lockdep-annotation fix from
Boqun Feng.
- SRCU updates.
- Updates to rcutorture and associated scripting.
- Introduce grace-period sequence numbers to the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt,
and RCU-sched flavors, replacing the old ->gpnum and ->completed
pair of fields. This change allows lockless code to obtain the
complete grace-period state with a single READ_ONCE(), which is
needed to maintain tolerable lock contention during the upcoming
consolidation of the three RCU flavors. Note that grace-period
sequence numbers are already used by rcu_barrier(), expedited
RCU grace periods, and SRCU, and are thus already heavily used
and well-tested. Joel Fernandes contributed a number of excellent
fixes and improvements.
- Clean up some grace-period-reporting loose ends, including
improving the handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs
and fixing some false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations.
(Strictly speaking, the WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations were quite
correct, but their invariants were (harmlessly) violated by the
earlier sloppy handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs.)
In addition, improve grace-period forward-progress guarantees so
as to allow removal of fail-safe checks that required otherwise
needless lock acquisitions. Finally, add more diagnostics to
help debug the upcoming consolidation of the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt,
and RCU-sched flavors.
- Additional miscellaneous fixes, including those contributed by
Byungchul Park, Mauro Carvalho Chehab, Joe Perches, Joel Fernandes,
Steven Rostedt, Andrea Parri, and Neil Brown.
- Additional torture-test changes, including several contributed by
Arnd Bergmann and Joel Fernandes.

Introduce the 'l1tf=' kernel command line option to allow for boot-time
switching of mitigation that is used on processors affected by L1TF.
The possible values are:
full
Provides all available mitigations for the L1TF vulnerability. Disables
SMT and enables all mitigations in the hypervisors. SMT control via
/sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible after boot.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in
a potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
full,force
Same as 'full', but disables SMT control. Implies the 'nosmt=force'
command line option. sysfs control of SMT and the hypervisor flush
control is disabled.
flush
Leaves SMT enabled and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in a
potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
flush,nosmt
Disables SMT and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation. SMT
control via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible
after boot. If SMT is reenabled or flushing disabled at runtime
hypervisors will issue a warning.
flush,nowarn
Same as 'flush', but hypervisors will not warn when
a VM is started in a potentially insecure configuration.
off
Disables hypervisor mitigations and doesn't emit any warnings.
Default is 'flush'.
Let KVM adhere to these semantics, which means:
- 'lt1f=full,force' : Performe L1D flushes. No runtime control
possible.
- 'l1tf=full'
- 'l1tf-flush'
- 'l1tf=flush,nosmt' : Perform L1D flushes and warn on VM start if
SMT has been runtime enabled or L1D flushing
has been run-time enabled
- 'l1tf=flush,nowarn' : Perform L1D flushes and no warnings are emitted.
- 'l1tf=off' : L1D flushes are not performed and no warnings
are emitted.
KVM can always override the L1D flushing behavior using its 'vmentry_l1d_flush'
module parameter except when lt1f=full,force is set.
This makes KVM's private 'nosmt' option redundant, and as it is a bit
non-systematic anyway (this is something to control globally, not on
hypervisor level), remove that option.
Add the missing Documentation entry for the l1tf vulnerability sysfs file
while at it.

Some RCU bugs have been sensitive to the frequency of CPU-hotplug
operations, which have been gradually increased over time. But this
frequency is now at the one-second lower limit that can be specified using
the rcutorture.onoff_interval kernel parameter. This commit therefore
changes the units of rcutorture.onoff_interval from seconds to jiffies,
and also sets the value specified for this kernel parameter in the TREE03
rcutorture scenario to 200, which is 200 milliseconds for HZ=1000.

Deferred probe will currently wait forever on dependent devices to probe,
but sometimes a driver will never exist. It's also not always critical for
a driver to exist. Platforms can rely on default configuration from the
bootloader or reset defaults for things such as pinctrl and power domains.
This is often the case with initial platform support until various drivers
get enabled. There's at least 2 scenarios where deferred probe can render
a platform broken. Both involve using a DT which has more devices and
dependencies than the kernel supports. The 1st case is a driver may be
disabled in the kernel config. The 2nd case is the kernel version may
simply not have the dependent driver. This can happen if using a newer DT
(provided by firmware perhaps) with a stable kernel version. Deferred
probe issues can be difficult to debug especially if the console has
dependencies or userspace fails to boot to a shell.
There are also cases like IOMMUs where only built-in drivers are
supported, so deferring probe after initcalls is not needed. The IOMMU
subsystem implemented its own mechanism to handle this using OF_DECLARE
linker sections.
This commit adds makes ending deferred probe conditional on initcalls
being completed or a debug timeout. Subsystems or drivers may opt-in by
calling driver_deferred_probe_check_init_done() instead of
unconditionally returning -EPROBE_DEFER. They may use additional
information from DT or kernel's config to decide whether to continue to
defer probe or not.
The timeout mechanism is intended for debug purposes and WARNs loudly.
The remaining deferred probe pending list will also be dumped after the
timeout. Not that this timeout won't work for the console which needs
to be enabled before userspace starts. However, if the console's
dependencies are resolved, then the kernel log will be printed (as
opposed to no output).

Add a mitigation mode parameter "vmentry_l1d_flush" for CVE-2018-3620, aka
L1 terminal fault. The valid arguments are:
- "always" L1D cache flush on every VMENTER.
- "cond" Conditional L1D cache flush, explained below
- "never" Disable the L1D cache flush mitigation
"cond" is trying to avoid L1D cache flushes on VMENTER if the code executed
between VMEXIT and VMENTER is considered safe, i.e. is not bringing any
interesting information into L1D which might exploited.

If the L1TF CPU bug is present we allow the KVM module to be loaded as the
major of users that use Linux and KVM have trusted guests and do not want a
broken setup.
Cloud vendors are the ones that are uncomfortable with CVE 2018-3620 and as
such they are the ones that should set nosmt to one.
Setting 'nosmt' means that the system administrator also needs to disable
SMT (Hyper-threading) in the BIOS, or via the 'nosmt' command line
parameter, or via the /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control. See commit
05736e4ac1 ("cpu/hotplug: Provide knobs to control SMT").
Other mitigations are to use task affinity, cpu sets, interrupt binding,
etc - anything to make sure that _only_ the same guests vCPUs are running
on sibling threads.

Enabling HARDENED_USERCOPY may cause measurable regressions in networking
performance: up to 8% under UDP flood.
I ran a small packet UDP flood using pktgen vs. a host b2b connected. On
the receiver side the UDP packets are processed by a simple user space
process that just reads and drops them:
https://github.com/netoptimizer/network-testing/blob/master/src/udp_sink.c
Not very useful from a functional PoV, but it helps to pin-point
bottlenecks in the networking stack.
When running a kernel with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y, I see a 5-8%
regression in the receive tput, compared to the same kernel without this
option enabled.
With CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y, perf shows ~6% of CPU time spent
cumulatively in __check_object_size (~4%) and __virt_addr_valid (~2%).
The call-chain is:
__GI___libc_recvfrom
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe
do_syscall_64
__x64_sys_recvfrom
__sys_recvfrom
inet_recvmsg
udp_recvmsg
__check_object_size
udp_recvmsg() actually calls copy_to_iter() (inlined) and the latters
calls check_copy_size() (again, inlined).
A generic distro may want to enable HARDENED_USERCOPY in their default
kernel config, but at the same time, such distro may want to be able to
avoid the performance penalties in with the default configuration and
disable the stricter check on a per-boot basis.
This change adds a boot parameter that conditionally disables
HARDENED_USERCOPY via "hardened_usercopy=off".

Dave Hansen reported, that it's outright dangerous to keep SMT siblings
disabled completely so they are stuck in the BIOS and wait for SIPI.
The reason is that Machine Check Exceptions are broadcasted to siblings and
the soft disabled sibling has CR4.MCE = 0. If a MCE is delivered to a
logical core with CR4.MCE = 0, it asserts IERR#, which shuts down or
reboots the machine. The MCE chapter in the SDM contains the following
blurb:
Because the logical processors within a physical package are tightly
coupled with respect to shared hardware resources, both logical
processors are notified of machine check errors that occur within a
given physical processor. If machine-check exceptions are enabled when
a fatal error is reported, all the logical processors within a physical
package are dispatched to the machine-check exception handler. If
machine-check exceptions are disabled, the logical processors enter the
shutdown state and assert the IERR# signal. When enabling machine-check
exceptions, the MCE flag in control register CR4 should be set for each
logical processor.
Reverting the commit which ignores siblings at enumeration time solves only
half of the problem. The core cpuhotplug logic needs to be adjusted as
well.
This thoughtful engineered mechanism also turns the boot process on all
Intel HT enabled systems into a MCE lottery. MCE is enabled on the boot CPU
before the secondary CPUs are brought up. Depending on the number of
physical cores the window in which this situation can happen is smaller or
larger. On a HSW-EX it's about 750ms:
MCE is enabled on the boot CPU:
[ 0.244017] mce: CPU supports 22 MCE banks
The corresponding sibling #72 boots:
[ 1.008005] .... node #0, CPUs: #72
That means if an MCE hits on physical core 0 (logical CPUs 0 and 72)
between these two points the machine is going to shutdown. At least it's a
known safe state.
It's obvious that the early boot can be hit by an MCE as well and then runs
into the same situation because MCEs are not yet enabled on the boot CPU.
But after enabling them on the boot CPU, it does not make any sense to
prevent the kernel from recovering.
Adjust the nosmt kernel parameter documentation as well.

Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT.
The command line options are:
'nosmt': Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them
'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration
via MP table and ACPI/MADT.
The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write):
'on': SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined
'off': SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated
cannot be onlined
'forceoff': SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control
file are rejected.
'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU
The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This
can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime.
The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to
'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime.
When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online
secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread
later on are rejected.
When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary
threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -> 'on' transition does not
automatically online the secondary threads.
When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as
setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to
the control file are rejected.
When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file
are rejected.

On a system where the firmware implements ARCH_WORKAROUND_2,
it may be useful to either permanently enable or disable the
workaround for cases where the user decides that they'd rather
not get a trap overhead, and keep the mitigation permanently
on or off instead of switching it on exception entry/exit.
In any case, default to the mitigation being enabled.

Adds a "pci=noats" boot parameter. When supplied, all ATS related
functions fail immediately and the IOMMU is configured to not use
device-IOTLB.
Any function that checks for ATS capabilities directly against the devices
should also check this flag. Currently, such functions exist only in IOMMU
drivers, and they are covered by this patch.
The motivation behind this patch is the existence of malicious devices.
Lots of research has been done about how to use the IOMMU as protection
from such devices. When ATS is supported, any I/O device can access any
physical address by faking device-IOTLB entries. Adding the ability to
ignore these entries lets sysadmins enhance system security.

Add prctl based control for Speculative Store Bypass mitigation and make it
the default mitigation for Intel and AMD.
Andi Kleen provided the following rationale (slightly redacted):
There are multiple levels of impact of Speculative Store Bypass:
1) JITed sandbox.
It cannot invoke system calls, but can do PRIME+PROBE and may have call
interfaces to other code
2) Native code process.
No protection inside the process at this level.
3) Kernel.
4) Between processes.
The prctl tries to protect against case (1) doing attacks.
If the untrusted code can do random system calls then control is already
lost in a much worse way. So there needs to be system call protection in
some way (using a JIT not allowing them or seccomp). Or rather if the
process can subvert its environment somehow to do the prctl it can already
execute arbitrary code, which is much worse than SSB.
To put it differently, the point of the prctl is to not allow JITed code
to read data it shouldn't read from its JITed sandbox. If it already has
escaped its sandbox then it can already read everything it wants in its
address space, and do much worse.
The ability to control Speculative Store Bypass allows to enable the
protection selectively without affecting overall system performance.
Based on an initial patch from Tim Chen. Completely rewritten.

Contemporary high performance processors use a common industry-wide
optimization known as "Speculative Store Bypass" in which loads from
addresses to which a recent store has occurred may (speculatively) see an
older value. Intel refers to this feature as "Memory Disambiguation" which
is part of their "Smart Memory Access" capability.
Memory Disambiguation can expose a cache side-channel attack against such
speculatively read values. An attacker can create exploit code that allows
them to read memory outside of a sandbox environment (for example,
malicious JavaScript in a web page), or to perform more complex attacks
against code running within the same privilege level, e.g. via the stack.
As a first step to mitigate against such attacks, provide two boot command
line control knobs:
nospec_store_bypass_disable
spec_store_bypass_disable=[off,auto,on]
By default affected x86 processors will power on with Speculative
Store Bypass enabled. Hence the provided kernel parameters are written
from the point of view of whether to enable a mitigation or not.
The parameters are as follows:
- auto - Kernel detects whether your CPU model contains an implementation
of Speculative Store Bypass and picks the most appropriate
mitigation.
- on - disable Speculative Store Bypass
- off - enable Speculative Store Bypass

Mike Rapoport says:
These patches convert files in Documentation/vm to ReST format, add an
initial index and link it to the top level documentation.
There are no contents changes in the documentation, except few spelling
fixes. The relatively large diffstat stems from the indentation and
paragraph wrapping changes.
I've tried to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, but I could
miss some places that needed markup and add some markup where it was not
necessary.

little more than usual for v4.17.
Eleven patches in total, most fall into the small fix category, but
there are three non-trivial changes worth calling out:
- the audit entry filter is being removed after deprecating it for
quite a while (years of no one really using it because it turns out
to be not very practical)
- created our own version of "__mutex_owner()" because the locking
folks were upset we were using theirs
- improved our handling of kernel command line parameters to make
them more forgiving
- we fixed auditing of symlink operations

Both kernelcore= and movablecore= can be used to define the amount of
ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE on a system, respectively. This requires
the system memory capacity to be known when specifying the command line,
however.
This introduces the ability to define both kernelcore= and movablecore=
as a percentage of total system memory. This is convenient for systems
software that wants to define the amount of ZONE_MOVABLE, for example,
as a proportion of a system's memory rather than a hardcoded byte value.
To define the percentage, the final character of the parameter should be
a '%'.
mhocko: "why is anyone using these options nowadays?"
rientjes:
:
: Fragmentation of non-__GFP_MOVABLE pages due to low on memory
: situations can pollute most pageblocks on the system, as much as 1GB of
: slab being fragmented over 128GB of memory, for example. When the
: amount of kernel memory is well bounded for certain systems, it is
: better to aggressively reclaim from existing MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE
: pageblocks rather than eagerly fallback to others.
:
: We have additional patches that help with this fragmentation if you're
: interested, specifically kcompactd compaction of MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE
: pageblocks triggered by fallback of non-__GFP_MOVABLE allocations and

Here is the big set of USB and PHY driver patches for 4.17-rc1.
Lots of USB typeC work happened this round, with code moving from the
staging directory into the "real" part of the kernel, as well as new
infrastructure being added to be able to handle the different types of
"roles" that typeC requires.
There is also the normal huge set of USB gadget controller and driver
updates, along with XHCI changes, and a raft of other tiny fixes all
over the USB tree. And the PHY driver updates are merged in here as
well as they interacted with the USB drivers in some places.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r,
metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure
that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in
mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective
ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw
no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company
in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems
that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the
custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast,
CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained

The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made
sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300,
and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels,
but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their
support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place.
They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but
complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted
their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar.

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
"This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
[ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ]

7570a333d8 ("PCI: Add pcie_hp=nomsi to disable MSI/MSI-X for pciehp
driver") added the "pcie_hp=nomsi" kernel parameter to work around this
error on shutdown:
irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
Pid: 1081, comm: reboot Not tainted 3.2.0 #1
...
Disabling IRQ #16
This happened on an unspecified system (possibly involving the Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. Device 807f bridge) where "an un-wanted interrupt
is generated when PCI driver switches from MSI/MSI-X to INTx while shutting
down the device."
The implication was that the device was buggy, but it is normal for a
device to use INTx after MSI/MSI-X have been disabled. The only problem
was that the driver was still attached and it wasn't prepared for INTx
interrupts. Prarit Bhargava fixed this issue with fda78d7a0e ("PCI/MSI:
Stop disabling MSI/MSI-X in pci_device_shutdown()").
There is no automated way to set this parameter, so it's not very useful
for distributions or end users. It's really only useful for debugging, and
we have "pci=nomsi" for that purpose.
Revert 7570a333d8 to remove the "pcie_hp=nomsi" parameter.

Trying quirks in usbcore needs to rebuild the driver or the entire
kernel if it's builtin. It can save a lot of time if usbcore has similar
ability like "usbhid.quirks=" and "usb-storage.quirks=".
Rename the original quirk detection function to "static" as we introduce
this new "dynamic" function.
Now users can use "usbcore.quirks=" as short term workaround before the
next kernel release. Also, the quirk parameter can XOR the builtin
quirks for debugging purpose.
This is inspired by usbhid and usb-storage.

Support access to VMware backdoor requires KVM to intercept #GP

Therefore, control this support by module parameter.
Note that module parameter is exported as it should be consumed by

The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather
active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill
over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up.
Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant,
and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because
of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when
doing cross-architecture changes.

For most GICv3 implementations, enabling LPIs is a one way switch.
Once they're on, there is no turning back, which completely kills
kexec (pending tables will always be live, and we can't tell the
secondary kernel where they are).
This is really annoying if you plan to use Linux as a bootloader,
as it pretty much guarantees that the secondary kernel won't be
able to use MSIs, and may even see some memory corruption. Bad.
A workaround for this unfortunate situation is to allow the kernel
not to enable LPIs, even if the feature is present in the HW. This
would allow Linux-as-a-bootloader to leave LPIs alone, and let the
secondary kernel to do whatever it wants with them.
Let's introduce a boolean "irqchip.gicv3_nolpi" command line option
that serves that purpose.

If you pass in an invalid audit boot parameter value, e.g. "audit=off",
the kernel panics very early in boot before the regular console is
initialized. Unless you have earlyprintk enabled, there is no
indication of what the problem is on the console.
Convert the panic() calls to pr_err(), and leave auditing enabled if an
invalid parameter value was passed in.
Modify the parameter to also accept "on" or "off" as valid values, and
update the documentation accordingly.

Add a more versatile memmap= operator, which -- in addition to all the
things that were possible before -- allows you to:
- redeclare existing ranges -- before, you were limited to adding ranges;
- drop any range -- like a mem= for any location;
- use any e820 memory type -- not just some predefined ones.
The syntax is:
memmap=<size>%<offset>-<oldtype>+<newtype>
Size and offset work as usual. The "-<oldtype>" and "+<newtype>" are
optional and their existence determine the behavior: The command
works on the specified range of memory limited to type <oldtype>
(if specified). This memory is then configured to show up as <newtype>.
If <newtype> is not specified, the memory is removed from the e820 map.

SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup

General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86),
updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(),
and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be
more descriptive.
On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is
not 2 so the table version check must be a warning.
On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console
and console are enabled. On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by
by default. Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing
the early console and console separately.

Pull spectre/meltdown updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The next round of updates related to melted spectrum:
- The initial set of spectre V1 mitigations:
- Array index speculation blocker and its usage for syscall,
fdtable and the n180211 driver.
- Speculation barrier and its usage in user access functions
- Make indirect calls in KVM speculation safe
- Blacklisting of known to be broken microcodes so IPBP/IBSR are not
touched.
- The initial IBPB support and its usage in context switch
- The exposure of the new speculation MSRs to KVM guests.
- A fix for a regression in x86/32 related to the cpu entry area
- Proper whitelisting for known to be safe CPUs from the mitigations.
- objtool fixes to deal proper with retpolines and alternatives
- Exclude __init functions from retpolines which speeds up the boot
process.
- Removal of the syscall64 fast path and related cleanups and
simplifications
- Removal of the unpatched paravirt mode which is yet another source
of indirect unproteced calls.
- A new and undisputed version of the module mismatch warning
- A couple of cleanup and correctness fixes all over the place
Yet another step towards full mitigation. There are a few things still
missing like the RBS underflow mitigation for Skylake and other small
details, but that's being worked on.
That said, I'm taking a belated christmas vacation for a week and hope
that everything is magically solved when I'm back on Feb 12th"

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the
original pv indirect calls in place.
That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify
paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines.
As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much
other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel
vulnerable to Spectre v2. It was probably a debug option from the early
paravirt days. So just remove it.

Pull x86 pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains:
- a PTI bugfix to avoid setting reserved CR3 bits when PCID is
disabled. This seems to cause issues on a virtual machine at least
and is incorrect according to the AMD manual.
- a PTI bugfix which disables the perf BTS facility if PTI is
enabled. The BTS AUX buffer is not globally visible and causes the
CPU to fault when the mapping disappears on switching CR3 to user
space. A full fix which restores BTS on PTI is non trivial and will
be worked on.
- PTI bugfixes for EFI and trusted boot which make sure that the user
space visible page table entries have the NX bit cleared

+ The ASM variants of retpoline and the conversion of affected ASM
code
+ Make LFENCE serializing on AMD so it can be used as speculation
trap
+ The RSB fill after vmexit
- initial objtool support for retpoline
As I said in the status mail this is the most of the set of patches
which should go into 4.15 except two straight forward patches still on

- the retpoline add on of LFENCE which waits for ACKs
- the RSB fill after context switch
Both should be ready to go early next week and with that we'll have
covered the major holes of spectre_v2 and go back to normality"

Add a spectre_v2= option to select the mitigation used for the indirect
branch speculation vulnerability.
Currently, the only option available is retpoline, in its various forms.
This will be expanded to cover the new IBRS/IBPB microcode features.
The RETPOLINE_AMD feature relies on a serializing LFENCE for speculation
control. For AMD hardware, only set RETPOLINE_AMD if LFENCE is a
serializing instruction, which is indicated by the LFENCE_RDTSC feature.
[ tglx: Folded back the LFENCE/AMD fixes and reworked it so IBRS
integration becomes simple ]

Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window"
is specified.
This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we
don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory
that would conflict with the window.
The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to
AMD CPUs. The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the
window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least
describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling
it.

0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort
of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect
and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the
kernel logs from:
a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg
This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note)
and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly
simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages.
b) serial consoles
This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages
don't contain facility and log level.
This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option,
to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles.
For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog.
The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the
"syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog
format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and
`cat /proc/kmsg' output formats:
- facility and log level
- time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME)
- message
<%u>[time stamp] text\n
NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually
"dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per
Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog
format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format,
thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw".
Per Kevin Hilman:
: Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup,
: but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to
: have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels
: in default boot log.
:
: This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced
: search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic
: Search, Logstash, Kibana).
:
: The other important reason for having this on the command line is that
: for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches),
: it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run
: "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.) So we really want this on the primary
: boot (serial) console.
Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that
feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable
parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]:
`#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern :(err |crit |alert |emerg )'
instead of doing text pattern matching
`#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} |
grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern |
grep -a -v -F -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/kmsg-blacklist`

The acpi_mask_gpe= kernel parameter documentation states that the range
of mask is 128 GPEs (0x00 to 0x7F). The acpi_masked_gpes mask is a u64 so
only 64 GPEs (0x00 to 0x3F) can really be masked.
Use a bitmap of size 0xFF instead of a u64 for the GPE mask so 256
GPEs can be masked.
