selftests/x86/ldt_gdt_32: Work around a glibc sigaction() bug

2017-05-20T12:26:59+00:00

commit 65973dd3fd31151823f4b8c289eebbb3fb7e6bc0 upstream.

i386 glibc is buggy and calls the sigaction syscall incorrectly.

This is asymptomatic for normal programs, but it blows up on
programs that do evil things with segmentation.  The ldt_gdt
self-test is an example of such an evil program.

This doesn't appear to be a regression -- I think I just got lucky
with the uninitialized memory that glibc threw at the kernel when I
wrote the test.

This hackish fix manually issues sigaction(2) syscalls to undo the
damage.  Without the fix, ldt_gdt_32 segfaults; with the fix, it
passes for me.

ktest: Fix child exit code processing

commit 32677207dcc5e594254b7fb4fb2352b1755b1d5b upstream.

The child_exit errno needs to be shifted by 8 bits to compare against the
return values for the bisect variables.

Test uses PMC2 to count the event. But PMC1 is being initialized.

selftests: do not require bash for the generated test

commit a2b1e8a20c992b01eeb76de00d4f534cbe9f3822 upstream.

Nothing in this minimal script seems to require bash. We often run these

tools/testing/nvdimm: fix SIGTERM vs hotplug crash

2016-09-07T06:32:36+00:00

commit d8d378fa1a0c98ecb50ca52c9bf3bc14e25aa2d2 upstream.

The unit tests crash when hotplug races the previous probe. This race
requires that the loading of the nfit_test module be terminated with
SIGTERM, and the module to be unloaded while the ars scan is still
running.

In contrast to the normal nfit driver, the unit test calls
acpi_nfit_init() twice to simulate hotplug, whereas the nominal case
goes through the acpi_nfit_notify() event handler.  The
acpi_nfit_notify() path is careful to flush the previous region
registration before servicing the hotplug event. The unit test was
missing this guarantee.

efi: Make efivarfs entries immutable by default

2016-03-03T23:07:09+00:00

commit ed8b0de5a33d2a2557dce7f9429dca8cb5bc5879 upstream.

"rm -rf" is bricking some peoples' laptops because of variables being
used to store non-reinitializable firmware driver data that's required
to POST the hardware.

These are 100% bugs, and they need to be fixed, but in the mean time it
shouldn't be easy to *accidentally* brick machines.

We have to have delete working, and picking which variables do and don't
work for deletion is quite intractable, so instead make everything
immutable by default (except for a whitelist), and make tools that
aren't quite so broad-spectrum unset the immutable flag.

nfit: Adjust for different _FIT and NFIT headers

2015-11-30T22:51:46+00:00

When support for _FIT was added, the code presumed that the data
returned by the _FIT method is identical to the NFIT table, which
starts with an acpi_table_header.  However, the _FIT is defined
to return a data in the format of a series of NFIT type structure
entries and as a method, has an acpi_object header rather tahn
an acpi_table_header.

To address the differences, explicitly save the acpi_table_header
from the NFIT, since it is accessible through /sys, and change
the nfit pointer in the acpi_desc structure to point to the
table entries rather than the headers.
