f58ba10067 tracing/syscalls: support for syscalls tracing on x86
Extend x86 architecture syscall tracing support with syscall
metadata table details.

(The upcoming core syscall tracing modifications rely on this.)

86d6f2bf61 UML on UML fixed: it did not start
It is currently impossible to run a user-mode linux machine inside another
user-mode linux (UML on UML).  It breaks after a few instructions.  When
it tries to check whether SYSEMU is installed (the inner) UML receives an
inconsistent result (from the outer UML).

This is the output of a broken attempt:
$ ./linux mem=256m ubd0=cow
Locating the bottom of the address space ... 0x0
Locating the top of the address space ... 0xc0000000
Core dump limits :
        soft - 0
        hard - NONE
Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK
Checking ptrace new tags for syscall emulation...unsupported
Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...check_sysemu : expected SIGTRAP, got status = 256
$

The problem is the following:

PTRACE_SYSCALL/SINGLESTEP is currently managed inside arch_ptrace for ARCH=um.

PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP is not captured in arch_ptrace's switch,
therefore it is erroneously passed back to ptrace_request (in
kernel/ptrace).

This simple patch simply forces ptrace to return an error on
PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP as it is unsupported on ARCH=um, and fixes
the problem.

a644b2774d MIPS: NEC VR5500 processor support fixup
Current VR5500 processor support lacks of some functions which are
expected to be configured/synthesized on arch initialization.

Here're some VR5500A spec notes:

* All execution hazards are handled in hardware.

* Once VR5500A stops the operation of the pipeline by WAIT instruction,
  it could return from the standby mode only when either a reset, NMI
  request, or all enabled interrupts is/are detected.  In other words,
  if interrupts are disabled by Status.IE=0, it keeps in standby mode
  even when interrupts are internally asserted.

  Notes on WAIT: The operation of the processor is undefined if WAIT
  insn is in the branch delay slot.  The operation is also undefined
  if WAIT insn is executed when Status.EXL and Status.ERL are set to 1.

* VR5500A core only implements the Load prefetch.

With these changes, it boots fine.

129f8ae9b1 Revert "[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod."
This reverts commit e088e4c9cd.

Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a
regression in bug 12826.

Course of action:
 - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them
   if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically.
   If it isn't, we need to fix that.
 - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated
 - try again with the removal in six months.

It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because
it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding
a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

ed75d8635a powerpc: fix linkstation and storcenter compilation breakage
Defining flash partition table in platform code is deprecated, and due to
recent changes linkstation and storcenter do not compile any more with
their default configurations because of undefined references to
physmap_set_partitions(). Instead of fixing them by using the correct
kernel configuration macro in preprocessor conditional, remove partition
table definitions altogether. Instead add support for partition definition
on the command-line and in device tree to the default configurations.

6db6a5f3ae lguest: fix for CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y
Impact: remove lots of lguest boot WARN_ON() when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y

We now need to call irq_to_desc_alloc_cpu() before
set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), but we can't do that from init_IRQ (no
kmalloc available).

So do it as we use interrupts instead.  Also means we only alloc for
irqs we use, which was the intent of CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ anyway.

cbd88c8e6f lguest: fix crash 'unhandled trap 13 at <native_read_msr_safe>'
Impact: fix lguest boot crash on modern Intel machines

The code in early_init_intel does:

	if (c->x86 > 6 || (c->x86 == 6 && c->x86_model >= 0xd)) {
		u64 misc_enable;

		rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE, misc_enable);

And that rdmsr faults (not allowed from non-0 PL).  We can get around
this by mugging the family ID part of the cpuid.  5 seems like a good
number.

Of course, this is a hack (how very lguest!).  We could just indicate
that we don't support MSRs, or implement lguest_rdmst.

d0fc63f7bd x86 mmiotrace: fix remove_kmmio_fault_pages()
Impact: fix race+crash in mmiotrace

The list manipulation in remove_kmmio_fault_pages() was broken. If more
than one consecutive kmmio_fault_page was re-added during the grace
period between unregister_kmmio_probe() and remove_kmmio_fault_pages(),
the list manipulation failed to remove pages from the release list.

After a second grace period the pages get into rcu_free_kmmio_fault_pages()
and raise a BUG_ON() kernel crash.

The list manipulation is fixed to properly remove pages from the release
list.

This bug has been present from the very beginning of mmiotrace in the
mainline kernel. It was introduced in 0fd0e3da ("x86: mmiotrace full
patch, preview 1");

An urgent fix for Linus. Tested by Stuart (on 32-bit) and Pekka
(on amd and intel 64-bit systems, nouveau and nvidia proprietary).

This also doesn't solve the N32 issue which is that N32 seccomp processes

8827247ffc x86: don't define __this_fixmap_does_not_exist()
Impact: improve out-of-range fixmap index debugging

Commit "1b42f51630c7eebce6fb780b480731eb81afd325"
defined the __this_fixmap_does_not_exist() function
with a WARN_ON(1) in it.

This causes the linker to not report an error when
__this_fixmap_does_not_exist() is called with a
non-constant parameter.

Ingo defined __this_fixmap_does_not_exist() because he
wanted to get virt addresses of fix memory of nest level
by non-constant index.

But we can fix this and still keep the link-time check:

We can get the four slot virt addresses on link time and
store them to array slot_virt[].

Then we can then refer the slot_virt with non-constant index,
in the ioremap-leak detection code.

3a450de136 x86: UV: remove uv_flush_tlb_others() WARN_ON
In uv_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_uv.c),
the "WARN_ON(!in_atomic())" fails if CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled.

And CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled by default in the distribution that
most UV owners will use.

We could #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT the warning, but that is not good form.
And there seems to be no suitable fix to in_atomic() when CONFIG_PREMPT
is not on.

As Ingo commented:

  > and we have no proper primitive to test for atomicity. (mainly
  > because we dont know about atomicity on a non-preempt kernel)

So we drop the WARN_ON.

Any assembler specific snippets being placed in headers
are to be protected by __ASSEMBLY__. Fixed.

Also move __ALIGN definition under the same protection as well.

78ff7fae04 x86: implement atomic text_poke() via fixmap
Use fixmaps instead of vmap/vunmap in text_poke() for avoiding
page allocation and delayed unmapping.

At the result of above change, text_poke() becomes atomic and can be called
from stop_machine() etc.

Since alternative_smp_* will be called from module init code, etc,

73bf1b62f5 x86, pebs: correct qualifier passed to ds_write_config() from ds_request_pebs()
ds_write_config() can write the BTS as well as the PEBS part of
the DS config. ds_request_pebs() passes the wrong qualifier, which
results in the wrong configuration to be written.

9ca0791dca x86, bts: remove bad warning
In case a ptraced task is reaped (while the tracer is still attached),
ds_exit_thread() is called before ptrace_exit(). The latter will
release the bts_tracer and remove the thread's ds_ctx.
The former will WARN() if the context is not NULL.

Oleg Nesterov submitted patches that move ptrace_exit() before
exit_thread() and thus reverse the order of the above calls.

Remove the bad warning. I will add it again when Oleg's changes are in.
