commit 34ca70ef7d3a9fa7e89151597db5e37ae1d429b4 upstream.

As discussed in the strace issue tracker, it appears that the sparc32
sysvipc support has been broken for the past 11 years. It was however
working in compat mode, which is how it must have escaped most of the
regular testing.

The problem is that a cleanup patch inadvertently changed the uid/gid
fields in struct ipc64_perm from 32-bit types to 16-bit types in uapi
headers.

Both glibc and uclibc-ng still use the original types, so they should
work fine with compat mode, but not natively.  Change the definitions
to use __kernel_uid32_t and __kernel_gid32_t again.

<title>locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key interface</title>

commit 11276d5306b8e5b438a36bbff855fe792d7eaa61 upstream.

There are various problems and short-comings with the current
static_key interface:

 - static_key_{true,false}() read like a branch depending on the key
   value, instead of the actual likely/unlikely branch depending on
   init value.

 - static_key_{true,false}() are, as stated above, tied to the
   static_key init values STATIC_KEY_INIT_{TRUE,FALSE}.

 - we're limited to the 2 (out of 4) possible options that compile to
   a default NOP because that's what our arch_static_branch() assembly
   emits.

So provide a new static_key interface:

  DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
  DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);

Which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.

Then allow:

   static_branch_likely()
   static_branch_unlikely()

to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case.

This means adding a second arch_static_branch_jump() assembly helper
which emits a JMP per default.

In order to determine the right instruction for the right state,
encode the branch type in the LSB of jump_entry::key.

This is the final step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:

  a833581e372a ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")

... but it also allows new static key combinations that will give us
performance enhancements in the subsequent patches.

commit 55dd0df781e58ec23d218376ea4a676e7362a98c upstream.

Wrap asm/jump_label.h for all archs with #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__.
Since these are kernel only headers, we don't need #ifdef
__KERNEL__ so can simplify things a bit.

If an architecture wants to use jump labels in assembly, it
will still need to define a macro to create the __jump_table
entries (see ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH in the powerpc asm/jump_label.h
for an example).

[ Upstream commit 7cafc0b8bf130f038b0ec2dcdd6a9de6dc59b65a ]

We must handle data access exception as well as memory address unaligned
exceptions from return from trap window fill faults, not just normal
TLB misses.

Otherwise we can get an OOPS that looks like this:

Call Trace:
 [0000000000404d4c] user_rtt_fill_fixup+0x6c/0x7c

The window trap handlers are slightly clever, the trap table entries for them are
composed of two pieces of code.  First comes the code that actually performs
the window fill or spill trap handling, and then there are three instructions at
the end which are for exception processing.

The userland register window fill handler is:

	add	%sp, STACK_BIAS + 0x00, %g1;		\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l0;			\
	mov	0x08, %g2;				\
	mov	0x10, %g3;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l1;			\
	mov	0x18, %g5;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l7;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i0;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i1;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i7;			\
	restored;					\
	retry; nop; nop; nop; nop;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_dax;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_mna;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup;

And the way this works is that if any of those memory accesses
generate an exception, the exception handler can revector to one of
those final three branch instructions depending upon which kind of
exception the memory access took.  In this way, the fault handler
doesn't have to know if it was a spill or a fill that it's handling
the fault for.  It just always branches to the last instruction in
the parent trap's handler.

For example, for a regular fault, the code goes:

winfix_trampoline:
	rdpr	%tpc, %g3
	or	%g3, 0x7c, %g3
	wrpr	%g3, %tnpc
	done

All window trap handlers are 0x80 aligned, so if we "or" 0x7c into the
trap time program counter, we'll get that final instruction in the
trap handler.

On return from trap, we have to pull the register window in but we do
this by hand instead of just executing a "restore" instruction for
several reasons.  The largest being that from Niagara and onward we
simply don't have enough levels in the trap stack to fully resolve all
possible exception cases of a window fault when we are already at
trap level 1 (which we enter to get ready to return from the original
trap).

This is executed inline via the FILL_*_RTRAP handlers.  rtrap_64.S's
code branches directly to these to do the window fill by hand if
necessary.  Now if you look at them, we'll see at the end:

	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;

And oops, all three cases are handled like a fault.

This doesn't work because each of these trap types (data access
exception, memory address unaligned, and faults) store their auxiliary
info in different registers to pass on to the C handler which does the
real work.

So in the case where the stack was unaligned, the unaligned trap
handler sets up the arg registers one way, and then we branched to
the fault handler which expects them setup another way.

So the FAULT_TYPE_* value ends up basically being garbage, and
randomly would generate the backtrace seen above.

The window trap handlers are slightly clever, the trap table entries for them are
composed of two pieces of code.  First comes the code that actually performs
the window fill or spill trap handling, and then there are three instructions at
the end which are for exception processing.

The userland register window fill handler is:

	add	%sp, STACK_BIAS + 0x00, %g1;		\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l0;			\
	mov	0x08, %g2;				\
	mov	0x10, %g3;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l1;			\
	mov	0x18, %g5;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %l4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %l5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %l6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %l7;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i0;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i1;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i2;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i3;			\
	add	%g1, 0x20, %g1;				\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g0] ASI, %i4;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g2] ASI, %i5;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g3] ASI, %i6;			\
	ldxa	[%g1 + %g5] ASI, %i7;			\
	restored;					\
	retry; nop; nop; nop; nop;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_dax;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup_mna;			\
	b,a,pt	%xcc, fill_fixup;

And the way this works is that if any of those memory accesses
generate an exception, the exception handler can revector to one of
those final three branch instructions depending upon which kind of
exception the memory access took.  In this way, the fault handler
doesn't have to know if it was a spill or a fill that it's handling
the fault for.  It just always branches to the last instruction in
the parent trap's handler.

For example, for a regular fault, the code goes:

winfix_trampoline:
	rdpr	%tpc, %g3
	or	%g3, 0x7c, %g3
	wrpr	%g3, %tnpc
	done

All window trap handlers are 0x80 aligned, so if we "or" 0x7c into the
trap time program counter, we'll get that final instruction in the
trap handler.

On return from trap, we have to pull the register window in but we do
this by hand instead of just executing a "restore" instruction for
several reasons.  The largest being that from Niagara and onward we
simply don't have enough levels in the trap stack to fully resolve all
possible exception cases of a window fault when we are already at
trap level 1 (which we enter to get ready to return from the original
trap).

This is executed inline via the FILL_*_RTRAP handlers.  rtrap_64.S's
code branches directly to these to do the window fill by hand if
necessary.  Now if you look at them, we'll see at the end:

	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;
	    ba,a,pt    %xcc, user_rtt_fill_fixup;

And oops, all three cases are handled like a fault.

This doesn't work because each of these trap types (data access
exception, memory address unaligned, and faults) store their auxiliary
info in different registers to pass on to the C handler which does the
real work.

So in the case where the stack was unaligned, the unaligned trap
handler sets up the arg registers one way, and then we branched to
the fault handler which expects them setup another way.

So the FAULT_TYPE_* value ends up basically being garbage, and
randomly would generate the backtrace seen above.

<content type='text'>
commit 44922150d87cef616fd183220d43d8fde4d41390 upstream.

If we have a series of events from userpsace, with %fprs=FPRS_FEF,
like follows:

ETRAP
	ETRAP
		VIS_ENTRY(fprs=0x4)
		VIS_EXIT
		RTRAP (kernel FPU restore with fpu_saved=0x4)
	RTRAP

We will not restore the user registers that were clobbered by the FPU
using kernel code in the inner-most trap.

Traps allocate FPU save slots in the thread struct, and FPU using
sequences save the "dirty" FPU registers only.

This works at the initial trap level because all of the registers
get recorded into the top-level FPU save area, and we'll return
to userspace with the FPU disabled so that any FPU use by the user
will take an FPU disabled trap wherein we'll load the registers
back up properly.

But this is not how trap returns from kernel to kernel operate.

The simplest fix for this bug is to always save all FPU register state
for anything other than the top-most FPU save area.

Getting rid of the optimized inner-slot FPU saving code ends up
making VISEntryHalf degenerate into plain VISEntry.

Longer term we need to do something smarter to reinstate the partial
save optimizations.  Perhaps the fundament error is having trap entry
and exit allocate FPU save slots and restore register state.  Instead,
the VISEntry et al. calls should be doing that work.

This bug is about two decades old.

We are reading the memory location, so we have to have a memory
constraint in there purely for the sake of showing the data flow
to the compiler.

Atomicity between xchg and cmpxchg cannot be guaranteed when xchg is

Without this, e.g. mcs_spin_lock and mcs_spin_unlock are broken.

<title>vio: fix reuse of vio_dring slot</title>

commit d0aedcd4f14a22e23b313f42b7e6e6ebfc0fbc31 upstream.

vio_dring_avail() will allow use of every dring entry, but when the last
entry is allocated then dr-&gt;prod == dr-&gt;cons which is indistinguishable from
the ring empty condition. This causes the next allocation to reuse an entry.
When this happens in sunvdc, the server side vds driver begins nack'ing the
messages and ends up resetting the ldc channel. This problem does not effect
sunvnet since it checks for &lt; 2.

The fix here is to just never allocate the very last dring slot so that full
and empty are not the same condition. The request start path was changed to
check for the ring being full a bit earlier, and to stop the blk_queue if
there is no space left. The blk_queue will be restarted once the ring is
only half full again. The number of ring entries was increased to 512 which
matches the sunvnet and Solaris vdc drivers, and greatly reduces the
frequency of hitting the ring full condition and the associated blk_queue
stop/starting. The checks in sunvent were adjusted to account for
vio_dring_avail() returning 1 less.
