commit 8da38ebaad23fe1b0c4a205438676f6356607cfc upstream.

Handle the case where microcode gets loaded on the BSP's hyperthread
sibling first and the boot_cpu_data's microcode revision doesn't get
updated because of early exit due to the siblings sharing a microcode
engine.

For that, simply write the updated revision on all CPUs unconditionally.

<title>x86/microcode: Make sure boot_cpu_data.microcode is up-to-date</title>

commit 370a132bb2227ff76278f98370e0e701d86ff752 upstream.

When preparing an MCE record for logging, boot_cpu_data.microcode is used
to read out the microcode revision on the box.

However, on systems where late microcode update has happened, the microcode
revision output in a MCE log record is wrong because
boot_cpu_data.microcode is not updated when the microcode gets updated.

But, the microcode revision saved in boot_cpu_data's microcode member
should be kept up-to-date, regardless, for consistency.

Make it so.

<title>x86/microcode/AMD: Change load_microcode_amd()'s param to bool to fix preemptibility bug</title>

commit dac6ca243c4c49a9ca7507d3d66140ebfac8b04b upstream.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT enabled, I get:

  BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: swapper/0/1
  caller is debug_smp_processor_id
  CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.12.0-rc2+ #2
  Call Trace:
   dump_stack
   check_preemption_disabled
   debug_smp_processor_id
   save_microcode_in_initrd_amd
   ? microcode_init
   save_microcode_in_initrd
   ...

because, well, it says it above, we're using smp_processor_id() in
preemptible code.

But passing the CPU number is not really needed. It is only used to
determine whether we're on the BSP, and, if so, to save the microcode
patch for early loading.

 [ We don't absolutely need to do it on the BSP but we do that
   customarily there. ]

Instead, convert that function parameter to a boolean which denotes
whether the patch should be saved or not, thereby avoiding the use of
smp_processor_id() in preemptible code.

commit f4e9b7af0cd58dd039a0fb2cd67d57cea4889abf upstream.

The size for the Microcode Patch Block (MPB) for an AMD family 17h
processor is 3200 bytes.  Add a #define for fam17h so that it does
not default to 2048 bytes and fail a microcode load/update.

<title>x86/microcode/AMD: Fix more fallout from CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY=y</title>

<id>1c27f646b18fb56308dff82784ca61951bad0b48</id>
<content type='text'>
We needed the physical address of the container in order to compute the
offset within the relocated ramdisk. And we did this by doing __pa() on
the virtual address.

However, __pa() does checks whether the physical address is within
PAGE_OFFSET and __START_KERNEL_map - see __phys_addr() - which fail
if we have CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY enabled: we feed a virtual address
which *doesn't* have the randomization offset into a function which uses
PAGE_OFFSET which *does* have that offset.

This makes this check fire:

	VIRTUAL_BUG_ON((x &gt; y) || !phys_addr_valid(x));
			^^^^^^

due to the randomization offset.

The fix is as simple as using __pa_nodebug() because we do that
randomization offset accounting later in that function ourselves.

It is used only in amd.c now.

No functionality change.

The microcode loader doesn't use it and now that that arg has been made
optional in find_cpio_data(), get rid of it here.

No functionality change.

<title>x86/microcode: Fix loading precedence</title>

So it can happen that even with builtin microcode,
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y gets forgotten enabled.

Or, even with that disabled, an initrd image gets supplied by the boot
loader, by omission or is simply forgotten there. And since we do look
at boot_params.hdr.ramdisk_* to know whether we have received an initrd,
we might get puzzled.

So let's just make the loader look for builtin microcode first and if
found, ignore the ramdisk image.

If no builtin found, it falls back to scanning the supplied initrd, of
course.

For that, we move all the initrd scanning in a separate
__scan_microcode_initrd() function and fall back to it only if
load_builtin_intel_microcode() has failed.
