12e993b894 x86-32: fix up strncpy_from_user() sign error
The 'max' range needs to be unsigned, since the size of the user address
space is bigger than 2GB.

We know that 'count' is positive in 'long' (that is checked in the
caller), so we will truncate 'max' down to something that fits in a
signed long, but before we actually do that, that comparison needs to be
done in unsigned.

Bug introduced in commit 92ae03f2ef ("x86: merge 32/64-bit versions of
'strncpy_from_user()' and speed it up").  On x86-64 you can't trigger
this, since the user address space is much smaller than 63 bits, and on
x86-32 it works in practice, since you would seldom hit the strncpy
limits anyway.

I had actually tested the corner-cases, I had only tested them on
x86-64.  Besides, I had only worried about the case of a pointer *close*
to the end of the address space, rather than really far away from it ;)

This also changes the "we hit the user-specified maximum" to return
'res', for the trivial reason that gcc seems to generate better code
that way.  'res' and 'count' are the same in that case, so it really
doesn't matter which one we return.

92ae03f2ef x86: merge 32/64-bit versions of 'strncpy_from_user()' and speed it up
This merges the 32- and 64-bit versions of the x86 strncpy_from_user()
by just rewriting it in C rather than the ancient inline asm versions
that used lodsb/stosb and had been duplicated for (trivial) differences
between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

While doing that, it also speeds them up by doing the accesses a word at
a time.  Finally, the new routines also properly handle the case of
hitting the end of the address space, which we have never done correctly
before (fs/namei.c has a hack around it for that reason).

Despite all these improvements, it actually removes more lines than it
adds, due to the de-duplication.  Also, we no longer export (or define)
the legacy __strncpy_from_user() function (that was defined to not do
the user permission checks), since it's not actually used anywhere, and
the user address space checks are built in to the new code.

Other architecture maintainers have been notified that the old hack in
fs/namei.c will be going away in the 3.5 merge window, in case they
copied the x86 approach of being a bit cavalier about the end of the
address space.

a7f4255f90 x86: Derandom delay_tsc for 64 bit
Commit f0fbf0abc0 ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted
delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit.  The reason is
that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and
delay_64.c.  Though the subtle difference of the result was:

 static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops)
 {
-	unsigned bclock, now;
+	unsigned long bclock, now;

Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the
TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64
bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when
bclock is read, because the following check

       if ((now - bclock) >= loops)
       	  	break;

evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0
because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in
0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops
value. That explains Tvortkos observation:

"Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and
 that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us."

Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32
and 64 bit.

Other than apparent at the first glance, this also doesn't grow

cb8095bba6 x86: atomic64 assembly improvements
In the "xchg" implementation, %ebx and %ecx don't need to be copied
into %eax and %edx respectively (this is only necessary when desiring
to only read the stored value).

In the "add_unless" implementation, swapping the use of %ecx and %esi
for passing arguments allows %esi to become an input only (i.e.
permitting the register to be re-used to address the same object
without reload).

In "{add,sub}_return", doing the initial read64 through the passed in
%ecx decreases a register dependency.

In "inc_not_zero", a branch can be eliminated by or-ing together the
two halves of the current (64-bit) value, and code size can be further
reduced by adjusting the arithmetic slightly.

v2: Undo the folding of "xchg" and "set".

819165fb34 x86: Adjust asm constraints in atomic64 wrappers
Eric pointed out overly restrictive constraints in atomic64_set(), but
there are issues throughout the file. In the cited case, %ebx and %ecx
are inputs only (don't get changed by either of the two low level
implementations). This was also the case elsewhere.

Further in many cases early-clobber indicators were missing.

Finally, the previous implementation rolled a custom alternative
instruction macro from scratch, rather than using alternative_call()
(which was introduced with the commit that the description of the
change in question actually refers to). Adjusting has the benefit of
not hiding referenced symbols from the compiler, which however requires
them to be declared not just in the exporting source file (which, as a
desirable side effect, in turn allows that exporting file to become a
real 5-line stub).

This patch does not eliminate the overly restrictive memory clobbers,
however: Doing so would occasionally make the compiler set up a second
register for accessing the memory object (to satisfy the added "m"
constraint), and it's not clear which of the two non-optimal
alternatives is better.

v2: Re-do the declaration and exporting of the internal symbols.

130b78b2bf x86: Fix instruction decoder to handle grouped AVX instructions
For reducing memory usage of attribute table, x86 instruction
decoder puts "Group" attribute only on "no-last-prefix"
attribute table (same as vex_p == 0 case).

Thus, the decoder should look no-last-prefix table first, and
then only if it is not a group, move on to "with-last-prefix"
table (vex_p != 0).

However, current implementation, inat_get_avx_attribute()
looks with-last-prefix directly. So, when decoding
a grouped AVX instruction, the decoder fails to find correct
group because there is no "Group" attribute on the table.
This ends up with the mis-decoding of instructions, as Ingo
reported in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1214103

This patch fixes it to check no-last-prefix table first
even if that is an AVX instruction, and get an attribute from
"with last-prefix" table only if that is not a group.

a750036f35 x86: Fix write lock scalability 64-bit issue
With the write lock path simply subtracting RW_LOCK_BIAS there
is, on large systems, the theoretical possibility of overflowing
the 32-bit value that was used so far (namely if 128 or more
CPUs manage to do the subtraction, but don't get to do the
inverse addition in the failure path quickly enough).

A first measure is to modify RW_LOCK_BIAS itself - with the new
value chosen, it is good for up to 2048 CPUs each allowed to
nest over 2048 times on the read path without causing an issue.
Quite possibly it would even be sufficient to adjust the bias a
little further, assuming that allowing for significantly less
nesting would suffice.

However, as the original value chosen allowed for even more
nesting levels, to support more than 2048 CPUs (possible
currently only for 64-bit kernels) the lock itself gets widened
to 64 bits.

26afb7c661 x86, 64-bit: Fix copy_[to/from]_user() checks for the userspace address limit
As reported in BZ #30352:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30352

there's a kernel bug related to reading the last allowed page on x86_64.

The _copy_to_user() and _copy_from_user() functions use the following
check for address limit:

  if (buf + size >= limit)
	fail();

while it should be more permissive:

  if (buf + size > limit)
	fail();

That's because the size represents the number of bytes being
read/write from/to buf address AND including the buf address.
So the copy function will actually never touch the limit
address even if "buf + size == limit".

Following program fails to use the last page as buffer
due to the wrong limit check:

 #include <sys/mman.h>
 #include <sys/socket.h>
 #include <assert.h>

 #define PAGE_SIZE       (4096)
 #define LAST_PAGE       ((void*)(0x7fffffffe000))

 int main()
 {
        int fds[2], err;
        void * ptr = mmap(LAST_PAGE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
                          MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
        assert(ptr == LAST_PAGE);
        err = socketpair(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fds);
        assert(err == 0);
        err = send(fds[0], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, 0);
        perror("send");
        assert(err == PAGE_SIZE);
        err = recv(fds[1], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, MSG_WAITALL);
        perror("recv");
        assert(err == PAGE_SIZE);
        return 0;
 }

The other place checking the addr limit is the access_ok() function,
which is working properly. There's just a misleading comment
for the __range_not_ok() macro - which this patch fixes as well.

The last page of the user-space address range is a guard page and
Brian Gerst observed that the guard page itself due to an erratum on K8 cpus
(#121 Sequential Execution Across Non-Canonical Boundary Causes Processor
Hang).

However, the test code is using the last valid page before the guard page.
The bug is that the last byte before the guard page can't be read
because of the off-by-one error. The guard page is left in place.

This bug would normally not show up because the last page is
part of the process stack and never accessed via syscalls.
