commit 897bc3df8c5aebb54c32d831f917592e873d0559 upstream.

Commit e1c3743e1a20 ("powerpc/tm: Set MSR[TS] just prior to recheckpoint")
moved a code block around and this block uses a 'msr' variable outside of
the CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM, however the 'msr' variable is declared
inside a CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM block, causing a possible error when
CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTION_MEM is not defined.

	error: 'msr' undeclared (first use in this function)

This is not causing a compilation error in the mainline kernel, because
'msr' is being used as an argument of MSR_TM_ACTIVE(), which is defined as
the following when CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is *not* set:

	#define MSR_TM_ACTIVE(x) 0

This patch just fixes this issue avoiding the 'msr' variable usage outside
the CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM block, avoiding trusting in the
MSR_TM_ACTIVE() definition.

<title>powerpc/tm: Unset MSR[TS] if not recheckpointing</title>

commit 6f5b9f018f4c7686fd944d920209d1382d320e4e upstream.

There is a TM Bad Thing bug that can be caused when you return from a
signal context in a suspended transaction but with ucontext MSR[TS] unset.

This forces regs-&gt;msr[TS] to be set at syscall entrance (since the CPU
state is transactional). It also calls treclaim() to flush the transaction
state, which is done based on the live (mfmsr) MSR state.

Since user context MSR[TS] is not set, then restore_tm_sigcontexts() is not
called, thus, not executing recheckpoint, keeping the CPU state as not
transactional. When calling rfid, SRR1 will have MSR[TS] set, but the CPU
state is non transactional, causing the TM Bad Thing with the following
stack:

	[   33.862316] Bad kernel stack pointer 3fffd9dce3e0 at c00000000000c47c

	WARNING: exception is not recoverable, can't continue

The same problem happens on 32-bits signal handler, and the fix is very
similar, if tm_recheckpoint() is not executed, then regs-&gt;msr[TS] should be
zeroed.

This patch also fixes a sparse warning related to lack of indentation when
CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is set.

commit e1c3743e1a20647c53b719dbf28b48f45d23f2cd upstream.

On a signal handler return, the user could set a context with MSR[TS] bits
set, and these bits would be copied to task regs-&gt;msr.

At restore_tm_sigcontexts(), after current task regs-&gt;msr[TS] bits are set,
several __get_user() are called and then a recheckpoint is executed.

This is a problem since a page fault (in kernel space) could happen when
calling __get_user(). If it happens, the process MSR[TS] bits were
already set, but recheckpoint was not executed, and SPRs are still invalid.

The page fault can cause the current process to be de-scheduled, with
MSR[TS] active and without tm_recheckpoint() being called.  More
importantly, without TEXASR[FS] bit set also.

Since TEXASR might not have the FS bit set, and when the process is
scheduled back, it will try to reclaim, which will be aborted because of
the CPU is not in the suspended state, and, then, recheckpoint. This
recheckpoint will restore thread-&gt;texasr into TEXASR SPR, which might be
zero, hitting a BUG_ON().

This patch simply delays the MSR[TS] set, so, if there is any page fault in
the __get_user() section, it does not have regs-&gt;msr[TS] set, since the TM
structures are still invalid, thus avoiding doing TM operations for
in-kernel exceptions and possible process reschedule.

With this patch, the MSR[TS] will only be set just before recheckpointing
and setting TEXASR[FS] = 1, thus avoiding an interrupt with TM registers in
invalid state.

Other than that, if CONFIG_PREEMPT is set, there might be a preemption just
after setting MSR[TS] and before tm_recheckpoint(), thus, this block must
be atomic from a preemption perspective, thus, calling
preempt_disable/enable() on this code.

It is not possible to move tm_recheckpoint to happen earlier, because it is
required to get the checkpointed registers from userspace, with
__get_user(), thus, the only way to avoid this undesired behavior is
delaying the MSR[TS] set.

The 32-bits signal handler seems to be safe this current issue, but, it
might be exposed to the preemption issue, thus, disabling preemption in
this chunk of code.

Changes from v2:
 * Run the critical section with preempt_disable.

<title>powerpc/tm: Unset MSR[TS] if not recheckpointing</title>

commit 6f5b9f018f4c7686fd944d920209d1382d320e4e upstream.

There is a TM Bad Thing bug that can be caused when you return from a
signal context in a suspended transaction but with ucontext MSR[TS] unset.

This forces regs-&gt;msr[TS] to be set at syscall entrance (since the CPU
state is transactional). It also calls treclaim() to flush the transaction
state, which is done based on the live (mfmsr) MSR state.

Since user context MSR[TS] is not set, then restore_tm_sigcontexts() is not
called, thus, not executing recheckpoint, keeping the CPU state as not
transactional. When calling rfid, SRR1 will have MSR[TS] set, but the CPU
state is non transactional, causing the TM Bad Thing with the following
stack:

	[   33.862316] Bad kernel stack pointer 3fffd9dce3e0 at c00000000000c47c
	cpu 0x8: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c00000003ff7fd40]

	WARNING: exception is not recoverable, can't continue

The same problem happens on 32-bits signal handler, and the fix is very
similar, if tm_recheckpoint() is not executed, then regs-&gt;msr[TS] should be
zeroed.

This patch also fixes a sparse warning related to lack of indentation when
CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is set.

<title>KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix race between kvm_unmap_hva_range and MMU mode switch</title>

commit 234ff0b729ad882d20f7996591a964965647addf upstream.

Testing has revealed an occasional crash which appears to be caused
by a race between kvmppc_switch_mmu_to_hpt and kvm_unmap_hva_range_hv.
The symptom is a NULL pointer dereference in __find_linux_pte() called
from kvm_unmap_radix() with kvm-&gt;arch.pgtable == NULL.

Looking at kvmppc_switch_mmu_to_hpt(), it does indeed clear
kvm-&gt;arch.pgtable (via kvmppc_free_radix()) before setting
kvm-&gt;arch.radix to NULL, and there is nothing to prevent
kvm_unmap_hva_range_hv() or the other MMU callback functions from
being called concurrently with kvmppc_switch_mmu_to_hpt() or
kvmppc_switch_mmu_to_radix().

This patch therefore adds calls to spin_lock/unlock on the kvm-&gt;mmu_lock
around the assignments to kvm-&gt;arch.radix, and makes sure that the
partition-scoped radix tree or HPT is only freed after changing
kvm-&gt;arch.radix.

This also takes the kvm-&gt;mmu_lock in kvmppc_rmap_reset() to make sure
that the clearing of each rmap array (one per memslot) doesn't happen
concurrently with use of the array in the kvm_unmap_hva_range_hv()
or the other MMU callbacks.

commit 7d8bad99ba5a22892f0cad6881289fdc3875a930 upstream.

Currently for CONFIG_PPC_FSL_BOOK3E the spectre_v2 file is incorrect:

  $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v2
  "Mitigation: Software count cache flush"

Which is wrong. Fix it to report vulnerable for now.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "One notable fix for our change to split pt_regs between user/kernel,
  we forgot to update BPF to use the user-visible type which was an ABI
  break for BPF programs.

  A slightly ugly but minimal fix to do_syscall_trace_enter() so that we
  use tracehook_report_syscall_entry() properly. We'll rework the code
  in next to avoid the empty if body.

  Seven commits fixing bugs in the new papr_scm (Storage Class Memory)
  driver. The driver was finally able to be tested on the other
  hypervisor which exposed several bugs. The fixes are all fairly
  minimal at least.

  Fix a crash in our MSI code if an MSI-capable device is plugged into a
  non-MSI capable PHB, only seen on older hardware (MPC8378).

  Fix our legacy serial code to look for "stdout-path" since the device
  trees were updated to use that instead of "linux,stdout-path".

  A change to the COFF zImage code to fix booting old powermacs.

  A couple of minor build fixes.

Arch code should use tracehook_*() helpers, as documented in
include/linux/tracehook.h, ptrace_report_syscall() is not expected to
be used outside that file.

The patch does not look very nice, but at least it is correct
