x86, cpufeature: Rename X86_FEATURE_DTS to X86_FEATURE_DTHERM

2012-07-04T04:44:28+00:00

commit 4ad33411308596f2f918603509729922a1ec4411 upstream.

It makes sense to label "Digital Thermal Sensor" as "DTS", but
unfortunately the string "dts" was already used for "Debug Store", and
/proc/cpuinfo is a user space ABI.

Therefore, rename this to "dtherm".

This conflict went into mainline via the hwmon tree without any x86
maintainer ack, and without any kind of hint in the subject.

ARM: SAMSUNG: Fix for S3C2412 EBI memory mapping

2012-07-04T04:44:24+00:00

commit 3dca938656c7b0ff6b0717a5dde0f5f45e592be5 upstream.

While upgrading the kernel on a S3C2412 based board I've noted
that it was impossible to boot the board with a 2.6.32 or upper
kernel. I've tracked down the problem to the EBI virtual memory
mapping that is in conflict with the IO mapping definition in
arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/s3c2412.c.

thp: avoid atomic64_read in pmd_read_atomic for 32bit PAE

2012-07-04T04:44:09+00:00

commit e4eed03fd06578571c01d4f1478c874bb432c815 upstream.

In the x86 32bit PAE CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y case while holding the
mmap_sem for reading, cmpxchg8b cannot be used to read pmd contents under
Xen.

So instead of dealing only with "consistent" pmdvals in
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() (which would be conceptually
simpler) we let pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() deal with pmdvals
where the low 32bit and high 32bit could be inconsistent (to avoid having
to use cmpxchg8b).

The only guarantee we get from pmd_read_atomic is that if the low part of
the pmd was found null, the high part will be null too (so the pmd will be
considered unstable).  And if the low part of the pmd is found "stable"
later, then it means the whole pmd was read atomically (because after a
pmd is stable, neither MADV_DONTNEED nor page faults can alter it anymore,
and we read the high part after the low part).

In the 32bit PAE x86 case, it is enough to read the low part of the pmdval
atomically to declare the pmd as "stable" and that's true for THP and no
THP, furthermore in the THP case we also have a barrier() that will
prevent any inconsistent pmdvals to be cached by a later re-read of the
*pmd.

mm: pmd_read_atomic: fix 32bit PAE pmd walk vs pmd_populate SMP race condition

2012-07-04T04:44:09+00:00

commit 26c191788f18129af0eb32a358cdaea0c7479626 upstream.

When holding the mmap_sem for reading, pmd_offset_map_lock should only
run on a pmd_t that has been read atomically from the pmdp pointer,
otherwise we may read only half of it leading to this crash.

This should be a longstanding bug affecting x86 32bit PAE without THP.
Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be
affected.

With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable,
by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is
enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition
freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states.
So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution.

This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads
the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically
with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled.

Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must
already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix
is localized there but this bug is not related to THP.

NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more
than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be
truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the
SMP race.

This bug was discovered and fully debugged by Ulrich, quote:

----
[..]
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() loads the content of edx and
eax.

    496 static inline int pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(pmd_t
    *pmd)
    497 {
    498         /* depend on compiler for an atomic pmd read */
    499         pmd_t pmdval = *pmd;

                                // edi = pmd pointer
0xc0507a74 :   mov    0x8(%esp),%edi
...
                                // edx = PTE page table high address
0xc0507a84 :   mov    0x4(%edi),%edx
...
                                // eax = PTE page table low address
0xc0507a8e :   mov    (%edi),%eax

[..]

Please note that the PMD is not read atomically. These are two "mov"
instructions where the high order bits of the PMD entry are fetched
first. Hence, the above machine code is prone to the following race.

-  The PMD entry {high|low} is 0x0000000000000000.
   The "mov" at 0xc0507a84 loads 0x00000000 into edx.

-  A page fault (on another CPU) sneaks in between the two "mov"
   instructions and instantiates the PMD.

-  The PMD entry {high|low} is now 0x00000003fda38067.
   The "mov" at 0xc0507a8e loads 0xfda38067 into eax.

ARM i.MX imx21ads: Fix overlapping static i/o mappings

2012-06-19T22:18:16+00:00

commit 350ab15bb2ffe7103bc6bf6c634f3c5b286eaf2a upstream.

The statically defined I/O memory regions for the i.MX21 on chip
peripherals and the on board I/O peripherals of the i.MX21ADS board
overlap. This results in a kernel crash during startup. This is fixed
by reducing the memory range for the on board I/O peripherals to the
actually required range.

ARM: imx6: exit coherency when shutting down a cpu

2012-06-19T22:18:15+00:00

commit 602bf40971d7f9a1ec0b7ba2b7e6427849828651 upstream.

There is a system hang issue on imx6q which can easily be seen with
running a cpu hotplug stress testing (hotplug secondary cores from
user space via sysfs interface for thousands iterations).

It turns out that the issue is caused by coherency of the cpu that
is being shut down.  When shutting down a cpu, we need to have the
cpu exit coherency to prevent it from receiving cache, TLB, or BTB
maintenance operations broadcast by other CPUs in the cluster.

Copy cpu_enter_lowpower() and cpu_leave_lowpower() from mach-vexpress
to have coherency properly handled in platform_cpu_die(), thus fix
the issue.

xen/setup: filter APERFMPERF cpuid feature out

2012-06-19T22:18:08+00:00

commit 5e626254206a709c6e937f3dda69bf26c7344f6f upstream.

Xen PV kernels allow access to the APERF/MPERF registers to read the
effective frequency. Access to the MSRs is however redirected to the
currently scheduled physical CPU, making consecutive read and
compares unreliable. In addition each rdmsr traps into the hypervisor.
So to avoid bogus readouts and expensive traps, disable the kernel
internal feature flag for APERF/MPERF if running under Xen.
This will
a) remove the aperfmperf flag from /proc/cpuinfo
b) not mislead the power scheduler (arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sched.c) to
   use the feature to improve scheduling (by default disabled)
c) not mislead the cpufreq driver to use the MSRs

This does not cover userland programs which access the MSRs via the
device file interface, but this will be addressed separately.

crypto: aesni-intel - fix unaligned cbc decrypt for x86-32

2012-06-19T22:18:08+00:00

commit 7c8d51848a88aafdb68f42b6b650c83485ea2f84 upstream.

The 32 bit variant of cbc(aes) decrypt is using instructions requiring
128 bit aligned memory locations but fails to ensure this constraint in
the code. Fix this by loading the data into intermediate registers with
load unaligned instructions.

This fixes reported general protection faults related to aesni.
