2018-02-22arm: spear13xx: Fix dmas cellsViresh Kumar
commit cdd10409914184c7eee5ae3e11beb890c9c16c61 upstream. The "dmas" cells for the designware DMA controller need to have only 3 properties apart from the phandle: request line, src master and destination master. But the commit 6e8887f60f60 updated it incorrectly while moving from platform code to DT. Fix it.

2018-02-13x86/paravirt: Remove 'noreplace-paravirt' cmdline optionJosh Poimboeuf
(cherry picked from commit 12c69f1e94c89d40696e83804dd2f0965b5250cd) 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.

2018-01-17x86/spectre: Add boot time option to select Spectre v2 mitigationDavid Woodhouse
commit da285121560e769cc31797bba6422eea71d473e0 upstream. 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.

2018-01-05kaiser: add "nokaiser" boot option, using ALTERNATIVEHugh Dickins
Added "nokaiser" boot option: an early param like "noinvpcid". Most places now check int kaiser_enabled (#defined 0 when not CONFIG_KAISER) instead of #ifdef CONFIG_KAISER; but entry_64.S and entry_64_compat.S are using the ALTERNATIVE technique, which patches in the preferred instructions at runtime. That technique is tied to x86 cpu features, so X86_FEATURE_KAISER is fabricated. Prior to "nokaiser", Kaiser #defined _PAGE_GLOBAL 0: revert that, but be careful with both _PAGE_GLOBAL and CR4.PGE: setting them when nokaiser like when !CONFIG_KAISER, but not setting either when kaiser - neither matters on its own, but it's hard to be sure that _PAGE_GLOBAL won't get set in some obscure corner, or something add PGE into CR4. By omitting _PAGE_GLOBAL from __supported_pte_mask when kaiser_enabled, all page table setup which uses pte_pfn() masks it out of the ptes. It's slightly shameful that the same declaration versus definition of kaiser_enabled appears in not one, not two, but in three header files (asm/kaiser.h, asm/pgtable.h, asm/tlbflush.h). I felt safer that way, than with #including any of those in any of the others; and did not feel it worth an asm/kaiser_enabled.h - kernel/cpu/common.c includes them all, so we shall hear about it if they get out of synch. Cleanups while in the area: removed the silly #ifdef CONFIG_KAISER from kaiser.c; removed the unused native_get_normal_pgd(); removed the spurious reg clutter from SWITCH_*_CR3 macro stubs; corrected some comments. But more interestingly, set CR4.PSE in secondary_startup_64: the manual is clear that it does not matter whether it's 0 or 1 when 4-level-pts are enabled, but I was distracted to find cr4 different on BSP and auxiliaries - BSP alone was adding PSE, in probe_page_size_mask().

2017-12-05hwmon: (jc42) optionally try to disable the SMBUS timeoutPeter Rosin
commit 68615eb01f82256c19e41967bfb3eef902f77033 upstream. With a nxp,se97 chip on an atmel sama5d31 board, the I2C adapter driver is not always capable of avoiding the 25-35 ms timeout as specified by the SMBUS protocol. This may cause silent corruption of the last bit of any transfer, e.g. a one is read instead of a zero if the sensor chip times out. This also affects the eeprom half of the nxp-se97 chip, where this silent corruption was originally noticed. Other I2C adapters probably suffer similar issues, e.g. bit-banging comes to mind as risky... The SMBUS register in the nxp chip is not a standard Jedec register, but it is not special to the nxp chips either, at least the atmel chips have the same mechanism. Therefore, do not special case this on the manufacturer, it is opt-in via the device property anyway.

While we agreed on having a DT property to mark particular modes as broken, the value used for eee-broken-modes mapped the phy register in very direct way. Because of this, the concern is that it could be used to implement configuration policies instead of describing a broken HW. In the end, having a boolean property for each mode seems to be preferred over one bit field value mapping the register (too) directly.

2017-06-24mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmasHugh Dickins
commit 1be7107fbe18eed3e319a6c3e83c78254b693acb upstream. Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping. But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX] which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN. This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical, unfortunatelly. Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot. One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace, but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong for some special case applications. For now, add a kernel command line option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units). Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page: because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point, a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK and strict non-overcommit mode. Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start (or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(), and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

2017-05-25arm64: documentation: document tagged pointer stack constraintsKristina Martsenko
commit f0e421b1bf7af97f026e1bb8bfe4c5a7a8c08f42 upstream. Some kernel features don't currently work if a task puts a non-zero address tag in its stack pointer, frame pointer, or frame record entries (FP, LR). For example, with a tagged stack pointer, the kernel can't deliver signals to the process, and the task is killed instead. As another example, with a tagged frame pointer or frame records, perf fails to generate call graphs or resolve symbols. For now, just document these limitations, instead of finding and fixing everything that doesn't work, as it's not known if anyone needs to use tags in these places anyway. In addition, as requested by Dave Martin, generalize the limitations into a general kernel address tag policy, and refactor tagged-pointers.txt to include it.

[ Upstream commit 0b445549ea6f91ffea78a976fe89b932db6e077a ] In soft (no-reboot) mode, the driver self-pings watchdog upon expiration of an interrupt. However the interrupt itself was not cleared thus on first hit, the system enters infinite interrupt handling loop. On Odroid U3 (Exynos4412), when booted with s3c2410_wdt.soft_noboot=1 argument the console is flooded: # killall -9 watchdog [ 60.523760] s3c2410-wdt 10060000.watchdog: watchdog timer expired (irq) [ 60.536744] s3c2410-wdt 10060000.watchdog: watchdog timer expired (irq) Fix this by writing something to the WTCLRINT register to clear the interrupt.

2017-04-12ACPI / sysfs: Provide quirk mechanism to prevent GPE floodingLv Zheng
[ Upstream commit 9c4aa1eecb48cfac18ed5e3aca9d9ae58fbafc11 ] Sometimes, the users may require a quirk to be provided from ACPI subsystem core to prevent a GPE from flooding. Normally, if a GPE cannot be dispatched, ACPICA core automatically prevents the GPE from firing. But there are cases the GPE is dispatched by _Lxx/_Exx provided via AML table, and OSPM is lacking of the knowledge to get _Lxx/_Exx correctly executed to handle the GPE, thus the GPE flooding may still occur. The existing quirk mechanism can be enabled/disabled using the following commands to prevent such kind of GPE flooding during runtime: # echo mask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00 # echo unmask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00 To avoid GPE flooding during boot, we need a boot stage mechanism. This patch provides such a boot stage quirk mechanism to stop this kind of GPE flooding. This patch doesn't fix any feature gap but since the new feature gaps could be found in the future endlessly, and can disappear if the feature gaps are filled, providing a boot parameter rather than a DMI table should suffice.

[ Upstream commit d8ec7595a013237f82d965dcf981571aeb41855b ] The ARM specifies that the system counter "must be implemented in an always-on power domain," and so we try to use the counter as a source of timekeeping across suspend/resume. Unfortunately, some SoCs (e.g., Rockchip's RK3399) do not keep the counter ticking properly when switched from their high-power clock to the lower-power clock used in system suspend.

commit 47512cfd0d7a8bd6ab71d01cd89fca19eb2093eb upstream. The goldfish platform code registers the platform device unconditionally which causes havoc in several ways if the goldfish_pdev_bus driver is enabled: - Access to the hardcoded physical memory region, which is either not available or contains stuff which is completely unrelated. - Prevents that the interrupt of the serial port can be requested - In case of a spurious interrupt it goes into a infinite loop in the interrupt handler of the pdev_bus driver (which needs to be fixed seperately). Add a 'goldfish' command line option to make the registration opt-in when the platform is compiled in. I'm seriously grumpy about this engineering trainwreck, which has seven SOBs from Intel developers for 50 lines of code. And none of them figured out that this is broken. Impressive fail!

2016-11-28Documentation: devicetree: clarify usage of the RGMII phy-modesMartin Blumenstingl
RGMII requires special RX and/or TX delays depending on the actual hardware circuit/wiring. These delays can be added by the MAC, the PHY or the designer of the circuit (the latter means that no delay has to be added by PHY or MAC). There are 4 RGMII phy-modes used describe where a delay should be applied: - rgmii: the RX and TX delays are either added by the MAC (where the exact delay is typically configurable, and can be turned off when no extra delay is needed) or not needed at all (because the hardware wiring adds the delay already). The PHY should neither add the RX nor TX delay in this case. - rgmii-rxid: configures the PHY to enable the RX delay. The MAC should not add the RX delay in this case. - rgmii-txid: configures the PHY to enable the TX delay. The MAC should not add the TX delay in this case. - rgmii-id: combines rgmii-rxid and rgmii-txid and thus configures the PHY to enable the RX and TX delays. The MAC should neither add the RX nor TX delay in this case. Document these cases in the ethernet.txt documentation to make it clear when to use each mode. If applied incorrectly one might end up with MAC and PHY both enabling for example the TX delay, which breaks ethernet TX traffic on 1000Mbit/s links.
