2014-02-22s390: fix kernel crash due to linkage stack instructionsMartin Schwidefsky
commit 8d7f6690cedb83456edd41c9bd583783f0703bf0 upstream. The kernel currently crashes with a low-address-protection exception if a user space process executes an instruction that tries to use the linkage stack. Set the base-ASTE origin and the subspace-ASTE origin of the dispatchable-unit-control-table to point to a dummy ASTE. Set up control register 15 to point to an empty linkage stack with no room left. A user space process with a linkage stack instruction will still crash but with a different exception which is correctly translated to a segmentation fault instead of a kernel oops.

2013-03-20s390: critical section cleanup vs. machine checksMartin Schwidefsky
commit 6551fbdfd8b85d1ab5822ac98abb4fb449bcfae0 upstream. The current machine check code uses the registers stored by the machine in the lowcore at __LC_GPREGS_SAVE_AREA as the registers of the interrupted context. The registers 0-7 of a user process can get clobbered if a machine checks interrupts the execution of a critical section in entry[64].S. The reason is that the critical section cleanup code may need to modify the PSW and the registers for the previous context to get to the end of a critical section. If registers 0-7 have to be replaced the relevant copy will be in the registers, which invalidates the copy in the lowcore. The machine check handler needs to explicitly store registers 0-7 to the stack.

2013-02-17s390/timer: avoid overflow when programming clock comparatorHeiko Carstens
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.

2013-01-21s390/time: fix sched_clock() overflowHeiko Carstens
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().

2012-11-26s390/signal: set correct address space controlMartin Schwidefsky
commit fa968ee215c0ca91e4a9c3a69ac2405aae6e5d2f upstream. If user space is running in primary mode it can switch to secondary or access register mode, this is used e.g. in the clock_gettime code of the vdso. If a signal is delivered to the user space process while it has been running in access register mode the signal handler is executed in access register mode as well which will result in a crash most of the time. Set the address space control bits in the PSW to the default for the execution of the signal handler and make sure that the previous address space control is restored on signal return. Take care that user space can not switch to the kernel address space by modifying the registers in the signal frame.

2012-10-28s390: fix linker script for 31 bit buildsHeiko Carstens
commit c985cb37f1b39c2c8035af741a2a0b79f1fbaca7 upstream. Because of a change in the s390 arch backend of binutils (commit 23ecd77 "Pick the default arch depending on the target size" in binutils repo) 31 bit builds will fail since the linker would now try to create 64 bit binary output. Fix this by setting OUTPUT_ARCH to s390:31-bit instead of s390. Thanks to Andreas Krebbel for figuring out the issue. Fixes this build error: LD init/built-in.o s390x-4.7.2-ld: s390:31-bit architecture of input file `arch/s390/kernel/head.o' is incompatible with s390:64-bit output Cc: Andreas Krebbel <Andreas.Krebbel@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-08-26s390/compat: fix mmap compat system callsHeiko Carstens
commit e85871218513c54f7dfdb6009043cb638f2fecbe upstream. The native 31 bit and the compat behaviour for the mmap system calls differ: In native 31 bit mode the passed in address for the mmap system call will be unmodified passed to sys_mmap_pgoff(). In compat mode however the passed in address will be modified with compat_ptr() which masks out the most significant bit. The result is that in native 31 bit mode each mmap request (with MAP_FIXED) will fail where the most significat bit is set, while in compat mode it may succeed. This odd behaviour was introduced with d3815898 "[S390] mmap: add missing compat_ptr conversion to both mmap compat syscalls". To restore a consistent behaviour accross native and compat mode this patch functionally reverts the above mentioned commit.

2012-08-09s390/idle: fix sequence handling vs cpu hotplugHeiko Carstens
commit 0008204ffe85d23382d6fd0f971f3f0fbe70bae2 upstream. The s390 idle accounting code uses a sequence counter which gets used when the per cpu idle statistics get updated and read. One assumption on read access is that only when the sequence counter is even and did not change while reading all values the result is valid. On cpu hotplug however the per cpu data structure gets initialized via a cpu hotplug notifier on CPU_ONLINE. CPU_ONLINE however is too late, since the onlined cpu is already running and might access the per cpu data. Worst case is that the data structure gets initialized while an idle thread is updating its idle statistics. This will result in an uneven sequence counter after an update. As a result user space tools like top, which access /proc/stat in order to get idle stats, will busy loop waiting for the sequence counter to become even again, which will never happen until the queried cpu will update its idle statistics again. And even then the sequence counter will only have an even value for a couple of cpu cycles. Fix this by moving the initialization of the per cpu idle statistics to cpu_init(). I prefer that solution in favor of changing the notifier to CPU_UP_PREPARE, which would be a different solution to the problem.

2012-04-11[S390] Fix stfle() lowcore protection problemMichael Holzheu
The stfle() function writes into lowcore memory when stfl_fac_list is initialized with "S390_lowcore.stfl_fac_list = 0". For older compilers this triggers a lowcore exception. With newer compilers and "-OXX" compile option the bug does not show up because the "S390_lowcore.stfl_fac_list" initialization is removed by the compiler. The reason for thatis the incorrect "=m" (S390_lowcore.stfl_fac_list) constraint in the stfl inline assembly. The following shows the disassembly of the stfle() optimized code that is inlined in the lgr_info_get() function: 000000000011325c <lgr_info_get>: 11325c: eb 9f f0 60 00 24 stmg %r9,%r15,96(%r15) 113262: c0 d0 00 29 0e 47 larl %r13,634ef0 <servi..> 113268: a7 f1 3f c0 tml %r15,16320 11326c: b9 04 00 ef lgr %r14,%r15 113270: a7 84 00 01 je 113272 <lgr_info_g..> 113274: a7 fb ff c0 aghi %r15,-64 113278: b9 04 00 c2 lgr %r12,%r2 11327c: a7 29 00 01 lghi %r2,1 113280: e3 e0 f0 98 00 24 stg %r14,152(%r15) 113286: d7 97 c0 00 c0 00 xc 0(152,%r12),0(%r12) 11328c: c0 e5 00 28 db 4c brasl %r14,62e924 <add_e..> 113292: b2 b1 00 00 stfl 0 To fix the problem we now clear the S390_lowcore.stfl_fac_list at startup in "head.S" for all machine types before lowcore protection is enabled.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

2012-03-23coredump: remove VM_ALWAYSDUMP flagJason Baron
The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

This is required because we only update the sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want new tasks to appear. On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu, so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state. So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.

This is done via a the struct "os_info" that contains the following fields: * crashkernel base and size * reipl block * vmcoreinfo * init function A pointer to os_info is stored at a well known storage location and the whole structure as well as all fields are secured with checksums.

2012-03-11[S390] Use block_sigmask()Matt Fleming
Use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

2012-03-11[S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detectionMichael Holzheu
Currently the following mechanisms are available to move active Linux on System z instances between machines: * z/VM 6.2 SSI (Single System Image) * Suspend/resume For moving Linux instances in this patch the term LGR (Linux Guest Relocation) is used. Because such an operation is critical, it should be detectable from Linux. With this patch for both, a live system and a kernel dump, the information about LGRs is accessible. To identify a guest, stsi and stfle data is used. A new function lgr_info_log() compares the current data (lgr_info_cur) with the last recorded one (lgr_info_last). In case the two data sets differ, lgr_info_cur is logged to the "lgr" s390dbf. The following trigger points call lgr_info_log(): * panic * die * kdump * LGR timer * PSW restart * QDIO recovery * resume This patch also changes the s390dbf hex_ascii view. Now only printable ASCII characters are shown.

2012-03-11[S390] irq: external interrupt code passingHeiko Carstens
The external interrupt handlers have a parameter called ext_int_code. Besides the name this paramter does not only contain the ext_int_code but in addition also the "cpu address" (POP) which caused the external interrupt. To make the code a bit more obvious pass a struct instead so the called function can easily distinguish between external interrupt code and cpu address. The cpu address field however is named "subcode" since some external interrupt sources do not pass a cpu address but a different parameter (or none at all).

2012-03-11[S390] rework idle codeMartin Schwidefsky
Whenever the cpu loads an enabled wait PSW it will appear as idle to the underlying host system. The code in default_idle calls vtime_stop_cpu which does the necessary voodoo to get the cpu time accounting right. The udelay code just loads an enabled wait PSW. To correct this rework the vtime_stop_cpu/vtime_start_cpu logic and move the difficult parts to entry[64].S, vtime_stop_cpu can now be called from anywhere and vtime_start_cpu is gone. The correction of the cpu time during wakeup from an enabled wait PSW is done with a critical section in entry[64].S. As vtime_start_cpu is gone, s390_idle_check can be removed as well.

2012-03-11[S390] rework smp codeMartin Schwidefsky
Define struct pcpu and merge some of the NR_CPUS arrays into it, including __cpu_logical_map, current_set and smp_cpu_state. Split smp related functions to those operating on physical cpus and the functions operating on a logical cpu number. Make the functions for physical cpus use a pointer to a struct pcpu. This hides the knowledge about cpu addresses in smp.c, entry[64].S and swsusp_asm64.S, thus remove the sigp.h header. The PSW restart mechanism is used to start secondary cpus, calling a function on an online cpu, calling a function on the ipl cpu, and for the nmi signal. Replace the different assembler functions with a single function restart_int_handler. The new entry point calls a function whose pointer is stored in the lowcore of the target cpu and it can wait for the source cpu to stop. This covers all existing use cases. Overall the code is now simpler and there are ~380 lines less code. Reviewed-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2012-02-21sys_poll: fix incorrect type for 'timeout' parameterLinus Torvalds
The 'poll()' system call timeout parameter is supposed to be 'int', not 'long'. Now, the reason this matters is that right now 32-bit compat mode is broken on at least x86-64, because the 32-bit code just calls 'sys_poll()' directly on x86-64, and the 32-bit argument will have been zero-extended, turning a signed 'int' into a large unsigned 'long' value. We could just introduce a 'compat_sys_poll()' function for this, and that may eventually be what we have to do, but since the actual standard poll() semantics is *supposed* to be 'int', and since at least on x86-64 glibc sign-extends the argument before invocing the system call (so nobody can actually use a 64-bit timeout value in user space _anyway_, even in 64-bit binaries), the simpler solution would seem to be to just fix the definition of the system call to match what it should have been from the very start. If it turns out that somebody somehow circumvents the user-level libc 64-bit sign extension and actually uses a large unsigned 64-bit timeout despite that not being how poll() is supposed to work, we will need to do the compat_sys_poll() approach.

2012-02-17[S390] idle: avoid RCU usage in extended quiescent stateHeiko Carstens
Avoid calling wake_up() from our NMI "bottom halve" from RCU extended quiescent state in idle. wake_up() has RCU read-side critical sections but this will be completely ignored by RCU if the cpu is in extended quiescent state. Which means that whatever object is being accessed from within the read-side critical section can be freed concurrently from a different cpu. So make sure we leave extended quiescent state before calling wake_up(). Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The vmlinux file for s390 contains a currently unused entry point, which is specified in two different locations: the linker script and the makefile. As it happens both definitions are different and the linker file is broken (_start does not exist) and the makefile specifies an entry point which makes no sense (the SALIPL loader entry point). So lets get rid of one definition (the makefile) and use the entry point of all other ipl methods (0x10000 -> startup) to be consistent.

2012-01-17audit: inline audit_syscall_entry to reduce burden on archsEric Paris
Every arch calls: if (unlikely(current->audit_context)) audit_syscall_entry() which requires knowledge about audit (the existance of audit_context) in the arch code. Just do it all in static inline in audit.h so that arch's can remain blissfully ignorant. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2012-01-17Audit: push audit success and retcode into arch ptrace.hEric Paris
The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was. Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating success or failure. This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall. The fix is to fix the layering foolishness. We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to determine if the syscall was a success or failure. We also define a generic is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the value is < -MAX_ERRNO. This works for arches like x86 which do not use a separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure. We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines instead of macros. The reason is because the audit function must take a void* for the regs. (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs). Since the audit function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the arch correct structure to dereference it. The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure. THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs. In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old audit code as the return value. But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro regs_return_value() as regs[3]. I have no idea which one is correct, but this patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3]. For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3]. regs->gprs[3] is always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative before calling the audit code when appropriate.
