[ Upstream commit 093d9603b60093a9aaae942db56107f6432a5dca ]

The 'profile_pc()' function is used for timer-based profiling, which
isn't really all that relevant any more to begin with, but it also ends
up making assumptions based on the stack layout that aren't necessarily
valid.

Basically, the code tries to account the time spent in spinlocks to the
caller rather than the spinlock, and while I support that as a concept,
it's not worth the code complexity or the KASAN warnings when no serious
profiling is done using timers anyway these days.

And the code really does depend on stack layout that is only true in the
simplest of cases.  We've lost the comment at some point (I think when
the 32-bit and 64-bit code was unified), but it used to say:

	Assume the lock function has either no stack frame or a copy
	of eflags from PUSHF.

which explains why it just blindly loads a word or two straight off the
stack pointer and then takes a minimal look at the values to just check
if they might be eflags or the return pc:

	Eflags always has bits 22 and up cleared unlike kernel addresses

but that basic stack layout assumption assumes that there isn't any lock
debugging etc going on that would complicate the code and cause a stack
frame.

It causes KASAN unhappiness reported for years by syzkaller [1] and
others [2].

With no real practical reason for this any more, just remove the code.

Just for historical interest, here's some background commits relating to
this code from 2006:

  0cb91a229364 ("i386: Account spinlocks to the caller during profiling for !FP kernels")
  31679f38d886 ("Simplify profile_pc on x86-64")

and a code unification from 2009:

  ef4512882dbe ("x86: time_32/64.c unify profile_pc")

but the basics of this thing actually goes back to before the git tree.

[ Upstream commit 5d31174f3c8c465d9dbe88f6b9d1fe5716f44981 ]

The assembly snippet in restore_fpregs_from_fpstate() that implements
X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK fixup loads the value from a random variable,
preferably the one that is already in the L1 cache.

However, the access to fpinit_state via *fpstate pointer is not
implemented correctly. The "m" asm constraint requires dereferenced
pointer variable, otherwise the compiler just reloads the value
via temporary stack slot. The current asm code reflects this:

     mov    %rdi,(%rsp)
     ...
     fildl  (%rsp)

With dereferenced pointer variable, the code does what the
comment above the asm snippet says:

     fildl  (%rdi)

Also, remove the pointless %P operand modifier. The modifier is
ineffective on non-symbolic references - it was used to prevent
%rip-relative addresses in .altinstr sections, but FILDL in the
.text section can use %rip-relative addresses without problems.

[ Upstream commit 93022482b2948a9a7e9b5a2bb685f2e1cb4c3348 ]

Code in v6.9 arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c was changed by commit

  4db64279bc2b ("x86/cpu: Switch to new Intel CPU model defines") from:

  static const struct x86_cpu_id intel_cod_cpu[] = {
          X86_MATCH_INTEL_FAM6_MODEL(HASWELL_X, 0),       /* COD */
          X86_MATCH_INTEL_FAM6_MODEL(BROADWELL_X, 0),     /* COD */
          X86_MATCH_INTEL_FAM6_MODEL(ANY, 1),             /* SNC */	&lt;--- 443
          {}
  };

  static bool match_llc(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c, struct cpuinfo_x86 *o)
  {
          const struct x86_cpu_id *id = x86_match_cpu(intel_cod_cpu);

to:

  static const struct x86_cpu_id intel_cod_cpu[] = {
           X86_MATCH_VFM(INTEL_HASWELL_X,   0),    /* COD */
           X86_MATCH_VFM(INTEL_BROADWELL_X, 0),    /* COD */
           X86_MATCH_VFM(INTEL_ANY,         1),    /* SNC */
           {}
   };

  static bool match_llc(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c, struct cpuinfo_x86 *o)
  {
          const struct x86_cpu_id *id = x86_match_cpu(intel_cod_cpu);

On an Intel CPU with SNC enabled this code previously matched the rule on line
443 to avoid printing messages about insane cache configuration.  The new code
did not match any rules.

Expanding the macros for the intel_cod_cpu[] array shows that the old is
equivalent to:

  static const struct x86_cpu_id intel_cod_cpu[] = {
  [0] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 6, .model = 0x3F, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 0 },
  [1] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 6, .model = 0x4F, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 0 },
  [2] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 6, .model = 0x00, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 1 },
  [3] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 0, .model = 0x00, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 0 }
  }

while the new code expands to:

  static const struct x86_cpu_id intel_cod_cpu[] = {
  [0] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 6, .model = 0x3F, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 0 },
  [1] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 6, .model = 0x4F, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 0 },
  [2] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 0, .model = 0x00, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 1 },
  [3] = { .vendor = 0, .family = 0, .model = 0x00, .steppings = 0, .feature = 0, .driver_data = 0 }
  }

Looking at the code for x86_match_cpu():

  const struct x86_cpu_id *x86_match_cpu(const struct x86_cpu_id *match)
  {
           const struct x86_cpu_id *m;
           struct cpuinfo_x86 *c = &amp;boot_cpu_data;

           for (m = match;
                m-&gt;vendor | m-&gt;family | m-&gt;model | m-&gt;steppings | m-&gt;feature;
                m++) {
       		...
           }
           return NULL;

it is clear that there was no match because the ANY entry in the table (array
index 2) is now the loop termination condition (all of vendor, family, model,
steppings, and feature are zero).

So this code was working before because the "ANY" check was looking for any
Intel CPU in family 6. But fails now because the family is a wild card. So the
root cause is that x86_match_cpu() has never been able to match on a rule with
just X86_VENDOR_INTEL and all other fields set to wildcards.

Add a new flags field to struct x86_cpu_id that has a bit set to indicate that
this entry in the array is valid. Update X86_MATCH*() macros to set that bit.
Change the end-marker check in x86_match_cpu() to just check the flags field
for this bit.

Backporter notes: The commit in Fixes is really the one that is broken:
you can't have m-&gt;vendor as part of the loop termination conditional in
x86_match_cpu() because it can happen - as it has happened above
- that that whole conditional is 0 albeit vendor == 0 is a valid case
- X86_VENDOR_INTEL is 0.

However, the only case where the above happens is the SNC check added by
4db64279bc2b1 so you only need this fix if you have backported that
other commit

[ Upstream commit 739c9765793e5794578a64aab293c58607f1826a ]

Commit

  6791e0ea3071 ("x86/resctrl: Access per-rmid structures by index")

adds logic to map individual monitoring groups into a global index space used
for tracking allocated RMIDs.

Attempts to free the default RMID are ignored in free_rmid(), and this works
fine on x86.

With arm64 MPAM, there is a latent bug here however: on platforms with no
monitors exposed through resctrl, each control group still gets a different
monitoring group ID as seen by the hardware, since the CLOSID always forms part
of the monitoring group ID.

This means that when removing a control group, the code may try to free this
group's default monitoring group RMID for real.  If there are no monitors
however, the RMID tracking table rmid_ptrs[] would be a waste of memory and is
never allocated, leading to a splat when free_rmid() tries to dereference the
table.

One option would be to treat RMID 0 as special for every CLOSID, but this would
be ugly since bookkeeping still needs to be done for these monitoring group IDs
when there are monitors present in the hardware.

Instead, add a gating check of resctrl_arch_mon_capable() in free_rmid(), and
just do nothing if the hardware doesn't have monitors.

This fix mirrors the gating checks already present in
mkdir_rdt_prepare_rmid_alloc() and elsewhere.

No functional change on x86.

Commit

  6791e0ea3071 ("x86/resctrl: Access per-rmid structures by index")

adds logic to map individual monitoring groups into a global index space used
for tracking allocated RMIDs.

Attempts to free the default RMID are ignored in free_rmid(), and this works
fine on x86.

With arm64 MPAM, there is a latent bug here however: on platforms with no
monitors exposed through resctrl, each control group still gets a different
monitoring group ID as seen by the hardware, since the CLOSID always forms part
of the monitoring group ID.

This means that when removing a control group, the code may try to free this
group's default monitoring group RMID for real.  If there are no monitors
however, the RMID tracking table rmid_ptrs[] would be a waste of memory and is
never allocated, leading to a splat when free_rmid() tries to dereference the
table.

One option would be to treat RMID 0 as special for every CLOSID, but this would
be ugly since bookkeeping still needs to be done for these monitoring group IDs
when there are monitors present in the hardware.

Instead, add a gating check of resctrl_arch_mon_capable() in free_rmid(), and
just do nothing if the hardware doesn't have monitors.

This fix mirrors the gating checks already present in
mkdir_rdt_prepare_rmid_alloc() and elsewhere.

No functional change on x86.

<title>kprobe/ftrace: bail out if ftrace was killed</title>

[ Upstream commit 1a7d0890dd4a502a202aaec792a6c04e6e049547 ]

If an error happens in ftrace, ftrace_kill() will prevent disarming
kprobes. Eventually, the ftrace_ops associated with the kprobes will be
freed, yet the kprobes will still be active, and when triggered, they
will use the freed memory, likely resulting in a page fault and panic.

This behavior can be reproduced quite easily, by creating a kprobe and
then triggering a ftrace_kill(). For simplicity, we can simulate an
ftrace error with a kernel module like [1]:

[1]: https://github.com/brenns10/kernel_stuff/tree/master/ftrace_killer

  sudo perf probe --add commit_creds
  sudo perf trace -e probe:commit_creds
  # In another terminal
  make
  sudo insmod ftrace_killer.ko  # calls ftrace_kill(), simulating bug
  # Back to perf terminal
  # ctrl-c
  sudo perf probe --del commit_creds

After a short period, a page fault and panic would occur as the kprobe
continues to execute and uses the freed ftrace_ops. While ftrace_kill()
is supposed to be used only in extreme circumstances, it is invoked in
FTRACE_WARN_ON() and so there are many places where an unexpected bug
could be triggered, yet the system may continue operating, possibly
without the administrator noticing. If ftrace_kill() does not panic the
system, then we should do everything we can to continue operating,
rather than leave a ticking time bomb.

<title>x86/amd_nb: Check for invalid SMN reads</title>

commit c625dabbf1c4a8e77e4734014f2fde7aa9071a1f upstream.

AMD Zen-based systems use a System Management Network (SMN) that
provides access to implementation-specific registers.

SMN accesses are done indirectly through an index/data pair in PCI
config space. The PCI config access may fail and return an error code.
This would prevent the "read" value from being updated.

However, the PCI config access may succeed, but the return value may be
invalid. This is in similar fashion to PCI bad reads, i.e. return all
bits set.

Most systems will return 0 for SMN addresses that are not accessible.
This is in line with AMD convention that unavailable registers are
Read-as-Zero/Writes-Ignored.

However, some systems will return a "PCI Error Response" instead. This
value, along with an error code of 0 from the PCI config access, will
confuse callers of the amd_smn_read() function.

Check for this condition, clear the return value, and set a proper error
code.

commit 93c1800b3799f17375989b0daf76497dd3e80922 upstream.

The call to cc_platform_has() triggers a fault and system crash if call depth
tracking is active because the GS segment has been reset by load_segments() and
GS_BASE is now 0 but call depth tracking uses per-CPU variables to operate.

Call cc_platform_has() earlier in the function when GS is still valid.

[ Upstream commit 2a38e4ca302280fdcce370ba2bee79bac16c4587 ]

tl;dr: CPUs with CPUID.80000008H but without CPUID.01H:EDX[CLFSH]
will end up reporting cache_line_size()==0 and bad things happen.
Fill in a default on those to avoid the problem.

Long Story:

The kernel dies a horrible death if c-&gt;x86_cache_alignment (aka.
cache_line_size() is 0.  Normally, this value is populated from
c-&gt;x86_clflush_size.

Right now the code is set up to get c-&gt;x86_clflush_size from two
places.  First, modern CPUs get it from CPUID.  Old CPUs that don't
have leaf 0x80000008 (or CPUID at all) just get some sane defaults
from the kernel in get_cpu_address_sizes().

The vast majority of CPUs that have leaf 0x80000008 also get
-&gt;x86_clflush_size from CPUID.  But there are oddballs.

Intel Quark CPUs[1] and others[2] have leaf 0x80000008 but don't set
CPUID.01H:EDX[CLFSH], so they skip over filling in -&gt;x86_clflush_size:

	cpuid(0x00000001, &amp;tfms, &amp;misc, &amp;junk, &amp;cap0);
	if (cap0 &amp; (1&lt;&lt;19))
		c-&gt;x86_clflush_size = ((misc &gt;&gt; 8) &amp; 0xff) * 8;

So they: land in get_cpu_address_sizes() and see that CPUID has level
0x80000008 and jump into the side of the if() that does not fill in
c-&gt;x86_clflush_size.  That assigns a 0 to c-&gt;x86_cache_alignment, and
hilarity ensues in code like:

        buffer = kzalloc(ALIGN(sizeof(*buffer), cache_line_size()),
                         GFP_KERNEL);

To fix this, always provide a sane value for -&gt;x86_clflush_size.

Big thanks to Andy Shevchenko for finding and reporting this and also
providing a first pass at a fix. But his fix was only partial and only
worked on the Quark CPUs.  It would not, for instance, have worked on
the QEMU config.

1. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/InstLatx64/InstLatx64/master/GenuineIntel/GenuineIntel0000590_Clanton_03_CPUID.txt
2. You can also get this behavior if you use "-cpu 486,+clzero"
   in QEMU.

commit 34bf6bae3286a58762711cfbce2cf74ecd42e1b5 upstream.

The new AMD/HYGON topology parser evaluates the SMT information in CPUID leaf
0x8000001e unconditionally while the original code restricted it to CPUs with
family 0x17 and greater.

This breaks family 0x15 CPUs which advertise that leaf and have a non-zero
value in the SMT section. The machine boots, but the scheduler complains loudly

commit 34bf6bae3286a58762711cfbce2cf74ecd42e1b5 upstream.

The new AMD/HYGON topology parser evaluates the SMT information in CPUID leaf
0x8000001e unconditionally while the original code restricted it to CPUs with
family 0x17 and greater.

This breaks family 0x15 CPUs which advertise that leaf and have a non-zero
value in the SMT section. The machine boots, but the scheduler complains loudly
about the mismatch of the core IDs:

  WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/core.c:6482 sched_cpu_starting+0x183/0x250
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at kernel/sched/topology.c:2408 build_sched_domains+0x76b/0x12b0

Add the condition back to cure it.
