Commit 35d5134b7d5a
("x86/efi: Correct EFI boot stub use of code32_start")
imported a bug, which will cause 32bit kernel boot failed
using efi method. It should use the label's address instead
of the value stored in the label to caculate the address of
code32_start.

commit f51e2f1911122879eefefa4c592dea8bf794b39c upstream. Currently instruction_pointer() returns pt_regs->ret and so return value is of type "long", which implicitly stands for "signed long". While that's perfectly fine when dealing with 32-bit values if return value of instruction_pointer() gets assigned to 64-bit variable sign extension may happen. And at least in one real use-case it happens already. In perf_prepare_sample() return value of perf_instruction_pointer() (which is an alias to instruction_pointer() in case of ARC) is assigned to (struct perf_sample_data)->ip (which type is "u64"). And what we see if instuction pointer points to user-space application that in case of ARC lays below 0x8000_0000 "ip" gets set properly with leading 32 zeros. But if instruction pointer points to kernel address space that starts from 0x8000_0000 then "ip" is set with 32 leadig "f"-s. I.e. id instruction_pointer() returns 0x8100_0000, "ip" will be assigned with 0xffff_ffff__8100_0000. Which is obviously wrong. In particular that issuse broke output of perf, because perf was unable to associate addresses like 0xffff_ffff__8100_0000 with anything from /proc/kallsyms. That's what we used to see: ----------->8---------- 6.27% ls [unknown] [k] 0xffffffff8046c5cc 2.96% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memcpy 2.25% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memset 1.66% ls [unknown] [k] 0xffffffff80666536 1.54% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] 0x000224d6 1.18% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] 0x00022472 ----------->8---------- With that change perf output looks much better now: ----------->8---------- 8.21% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memset 3.52% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memcpy 2.11% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] malloc 1.88% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memset 1.64% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore 1.41% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __d_lookup_rcu ----------->8---------- Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@synopsys.com> Cc: arc-linux-dev@synopsys.com Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
commit f9c87a6f46d508eae0d9ae640be98d50f237f827 upstream. If the kernel is compiled with gcc 5.1 and the XZ compression option the decompress_kernel function calls _sclp_print_early in 64-bit mode while the content of the upper register half of %r6 is non-zero. This causes a specification exception on the servc instruction in _sclp_servc. The _sclp_print_early function saves and restores the upper registers halves but it fails to clear them for the 31-bit code of the mini sclp driver.

commit 6f1a6ae87c0c60d7c462ef8fd071f291aa7a9abb upstream. When building the kernel with a bare-metal (ELF) toolchain, the -shared option may not be passed down to collect2, resulting in silent corruption of the vDSO image (in particular, the DYNAMIC section is omitted). The effect of this corruption is that the dynamic linker fails to find the vDSO symbols and libc is instead used for the syscalls that we intended to optimise (e.g. gettimeofday). Functionally, there is no issue as the sigreturn trampoline is still intact and located by the kernel. This patch fixes the problem by explicitly passing -shared to the linker when building the vDSO.

commit b9bcc919931611498e856eae9bf66337330d04cc upstream. The memmap freeing code in free_unused_memmap() computes the end of each memblock by adding the memblock size onto the base. However, if SPARSEMEM is enabled then the value (start) used for the base may already have been rounded downwards to work out which memmap entries to free after the previous memblock. This may cause memmap entries that are in use to get freed. In general, you're not likely to hit this problem unless there are at least 2 memblocks and one of them is not aligned to a sparsemem section boundary. Note that carve-outs can increase the number of memblocks by splitting the regions listed in the device tree. This problem doesn't occur with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, because the vmemmap code deals with freeing the unused regions of the memmap instead of requiring the arch code to do it. This patch gets the memblock base out of the memblock directly when computing the block end address to ensure the correct value is used.

commit 565630d503ef24e44c252bed55571b3a0d68455f upstream. After secondary CPU boot or hotplug, the active_mm of the idle thread is &init_mm. The init_mm.pgd (swapper_pg_dir) is only meant for TTBR1_EL1 and must not be set in TTBR0_EL1. Since when active_mm == &init_mm the TTBR0_EL1 is already set to the reserved value, there is no need to perform any context reset.

commit d57f727264f1425a94689bafc7e99e502cb135b5 upstream.
When auditing cmpxchg call sites, Chuck noted that gcc was optimizing
away some of the desired LDs.
| do {
| new = old = *ipi_data_ptr;
| new |= 1U << msg;
| } while (cmpxchg(ipi_data_ptr, old, new) != old);
was generating to below
| 8015cef8: ld r2,[r4,0] <-- First LD
| 8015cefc: bset r1,r2,r1
|
| 8015cf00: llock r3,[r4] <-- atomic op
| 8015cf04: brne r3,r2,8015cf10
| 8015cf08: scond r1,[r4]
| 8015cf0c: bnz 8015cf00
|
| 8015cf10: brne r3,r2,8015cf00 <-- Branch doesn't go to orig LD
Although this was fixed by adding a ACCESS_ONCE in this call site, it
seems safer (for now at least) to add compiler barrier to LLSC based
cmpxchg
