commit 3f0116c3238a96bc18ad4b4acefe4e7be32fa861 upstream.

Fengguang Wu, Oleg Nesterov and Peter Zijlstra tracked down
a kernel crash to a GCC bug: GCC miscompiles certain 'asm goto'
constructs, as outlined here:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58670

Implement a workaround suggested by Jakub Jelinek.

commit 2b29a9fdcb92bfc6b6f4c412d71505869de61a56 upstream.

Any uaccess between guest_enter and guest_exit could trigger a page fault,
the page fault handler would handle it as a guest fault and translate a
user address as guest address.

commit 4f2e29031e6c67802e7370292dd050fd62f337ee upstream.

Commit b4cbb197c7e7 ("vm: add vm_iomap_memory() helper function") added
a helper function wrapper around io_remap_pfn_range(), and every other
architecture defined it in &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;.

The s390 choice of &lt;asm/io.h&gt; may make sense, but is not very convenient
for this case, and gratuitous differences like that cause unexpected errors like this:

   mm/memory.c: In function 'vm_iomap_memory':
   mm/memory.c:2439:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'io_remap_pfn_range' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Glory be the kbuild test robot who noticed this, bisected it, and
reported it to the guilty parties (ie me).

commit f6a70a07079518280022286a1dceb797d12e1edf upstream.

Our flush_tlb_kernel_range() implementation calls __tlb_flush_mm() with
&amp;init_mm as argument. __tlb_flush_mm() however will only flush tlbs
for the passed in mm if its mm_cpumask is not empty.

For the init_mm however its mm_cpumask has never any bits set. Which in
turn means that our flush_tlb_kernel_range() implementation doesn't
work at all.

This can be easily verified with a vmalloc/vfree loop which allocates
a page, writes to it and then frees the page again. A crash will follow
almost instantly.

To fix this remove the cpumask_empty() check in __tlb_flush_mm() since
there shouldn't be too many mms with a zero mm_cpumask, besides the
init_mm of course.

<title>s390/timer: avoid overflow when programming clock comparator</title>

commit d911e03d097bdc01363df5d81c43f69432eb785c upstream.

Since ed4f209 "s390/time: fix sched_clock() overflow" a new helper function
is used to avoid overflows when converting TOD format values to nanosecond
values.
The kvm interrupt code formerly however only worked by accident because of
an overflow. It tried to program a timer that would expire in more than ~29
years. Because of the old TOD-to-nanoseconds overflow bug the real expiry
value however was much smaller, but now it isn't anymore.
This however triggers yet another bug in the function that programs the clock
comparator s390_next_ktime(): if the absolute "expires" value is after 2042
this will result in an overflow and the programmed value is lower than the
current TOD value which immediatly triggers a clock comparator (= timer)
interrupt.
Since the timer isn't expired it will be programmed immediately again and so
on... the result is a dead system.
To fix this simply program the maximum possible value if an overflow is
detected.

commit 15bc8d8457875f495c59d933b05770ba88d1eacb upstream.

On store status we need to copy the current state of registers
into a save area. Currently we might save stale versions:
The sie state descriptor doesnt have fields for guest ACRS,FPRS,
those registers are simply stored in the host registers. The host
program must copy these away if needed. We do that in vcpu_put/load.

If we now do a store status in KVM code between vcpu_put/load, the
saved values are not up-to-date. Lets collect the ACRS/FPRS before
saving them.

This also fixes some strange problems with hotplug and virtio-ccw,
since the low level machine check handler (on hotplug a machine check
will happen) will revalidate all registers with the content of the
save area.

commit ed4f20943cd4c7b55105c04daedf8d63ab6d499c upstream.

Converting a 64 Bit TOD format value to nanoseconds means that the value
must be divided by 4.096. In order to achieve that we multiply with 125
and divide by 512.
When used within sched_clock() this triggers an overflow after appr.
417 days. Resulting in a sched_clock() return value that is much smaller
than previously and therefore may cause all sort of weird things in
subsystems that rely on a monotonic sched_clock() behaviour.

To fix this implement a tod_to_ns() helper function which converts TOD
values without overflow and call this function from both places that
open coded the conversion: sched_clock() and kvm_s390_handle_wait().

commit 87cac8f879a5ecd7109dbe688087e8810b3364eb upstream.

Newer kernels (linux-next with the transparent huge page patches)
use rrbm if the feature is announced via feature bit 66.
RRBM will cause intercepts, so KVM does not handle it right now,
causing an illegal instruction in the guest.
The  easy solution is to disable the feature bit for the guest.

This fixes bugs like:
Kernel BUG at 0000000000124c2a [verbose debug info unavailable]
illegal operation: 0001 [#1] SMP
Modules linked in: virtio_balloon virtio_net ipv6 autofs4

commit 87cac8f879a5ecd7109dbe688087e8810b3364eb upstream.

Newer kernels (linux-next with the transparent huge page patches)
use rrbm if the feature is announced via feature bit 66.
RRBM will cause intercepts, so KVM does not handle it right now,
causing an illegal instruction in the guest.
The  easy solution is to disable the feature bit for the guest.

This fixes bugs like:
Kernel BUG at 0000000000124c2a [verbose debug info unavailable]
illegal operation: 0001 [#1] SMP
Modules linked in: virtio_balloon virtio_net ipv6 autofs4

commit d55c4c613fc4d4ad2ba0fc6fa2b57176d420f7e4 upstream.

When walking page tables we need to make sure that everything
is within bounds of the ASCE limit of the task's address space.
Otherwise we might calculate e.g. a pud pointer which is not
within a pud and dereference it.
So check against TASK_SIZE (which is the ASCE limit) before
walking page tables.
