commit 871e178e0f2c4fa788f694721a10b4758d494ce1 upstream.

In the "ibm,configure-pe" and "ibm,configure-bridge" RTAS calls, the
spec states that values of 9900-9905 can be returned, indicating that
software should delay for 10^x (where x is the last digit, i.e. 990x)
milliseconds and attempt the call again. Currently, the kernel doesn't
know about this, and respecting it fixes some PCI failures when the
hypervisor is busy.

The delay is capped at 0.2 seconds.

commit d7de413475f443957a0c1d256e405d19b3a2cb22 upstream.

TASK_SIZE was defined as 0x7fff8000UL which for 64k pages is not a
multiple of the page size.  Somewhere further down the math fails
such that executing an ELF binary fails.

commit 8b78f260887df532da529f225c49195d18fef36b upstream.

One of the debian buildd servers had this crash in the syslog without
any other information:

  [&lt;0000000040205024&gt;] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14

This means the userspace program clock_adjtime called the clock_adjtime()
syscall and then crashed inside the compat_get_timex() function.
Syscalls should never crash programs, but instead return EFAULT.

The IIR register contains the executed instruction, which disassebles
into "ldw 0(sr3,r5),r9".
This load-word instruction is part of __get_user() which tried to read the word
at %r5/IOR (0xfa6f7fff). This means the unaligned handler jumped in.  The
unaligned handler is able to emulate all ldw instructions, but it fails if it
fails to read the source e.g. because of page fault.

The following program reproduces the problem:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/syscall.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;

int main(void) {
        /* allocate 8k */
        char *ptr = mmap(NULL, 2*4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
        /* free second half (upper 4k) and make it invalid. */
        munmap(ptr+4096, 4096);
        /* syscall where first int is unaligned and clobbers into invalid memory region */
        /* syscall should return EFAULT */
        return syscall(__NR_clock_adjtime, 0, ptr+4095);
}

To fix this issue we simply need to check if the faulting instruction address
is in the exception fixup table when the unaligned handler failed. If it
is, call the fixup routine instead of crashing.

While looking at the unaligned handler I found another issue as well: The
target register should not be modified if the handler was unsuccessful.

commit d23fac2b27d94aeb7b65536a50d32bfdc21fe01e upstream.

The SIAR and SDAR registers are available twice, one time as SPRs
780 / 781 (unprivileged, but read-only), and one time as the SPRs
796 / 797 (privileged, but read and write). The Linux kernel code
currently uses the unprivileged  SPRs - while this is OK for reading,
writing to that register of course does not work.
Since the KVM code tries to write to this register, too (see the mtspr
in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S), the contents of this register sometimes get
lost for the guests, e.g. during migration of a VM.
To fix this issue, simply switch to the privileged SPR numbers instead.

<title>ARM: fix PTRACE_SETVFPREGS on SMP systems</title>

<content type='text'>
commit e2dfb4b880146bfd4b6aa8e138c0205407cebbaf upstream.

PTRACE_SETVFPREGS fails to properly mark the VFP register set to be
reloaded, because it undoes one of the effects of vfp_flush_hwstate().

Specifically vfp_flush_hwstate() sets thread-&gt;vfpstate.hard.cpu to
an invalid CPU number, but vfp_set() overwrites this with the original
CPU number, thereby rendering the hardware state as apparently "valid",
even though the software state is more recent.

Fix this by reverting the previous change.

commit e2dfb4b880146bfd4b6aa8e138c0205407cebbaf upstream.

PTRACE_SETVFPREGS fails to properly mark the VFP register set to be
reloaded, because it undoes one of the effects of vfp_flush_hwstate().

Specifically vfp_flush_hwstate() sets thread-&gt;vfpstate.hard.cpu to
an invalid CPU number, but vfp_set() overwrites this with the original
CPU number, thereby rendering the hardware state as apparently "valid",
even though the software state is more recent.

Fix this by reverting the previous change.

commit d14bdb553f9196169f003058ae1cdabe514470e6 upstream.

MOV to DR6 or DR7 causes a #GP if an attempt is made to write a 1 to
any of bits 63:32.  However, this is not detected at KVM_SET_DEBUGREGS
time, and the next KVM_RUN oopses:

<title>powerpc/book3s64: Fix branching to OOL handlers in relocatable kernel</title>

commit 8ed8ab40047a570fdd8043a40c104a57248dd3fd upstream.

Some of the interrupt vectors on 64-bit POWER server processors are only
32 bytes long (8 instructions), which is not enough for the full
first-level interrupt handler. For these we need to branch to an
out-of-line (OOL) handler. But when we are running a relocatable kernel,
interrupt vectors till __end_interrupts marker are copied down to real
address 0x100. So, branching to labels (ie. OOL handlers) outside this
section must be handled differently (see LOAD_HANDLER()), considering
relocatable kernel, which would need at least 4 instructions.

However, branching from interrupt vector means that we corrupt the
CFAR (come-from address register) on POWER7 and later processors as
mentioned in commit 1707dd16. So, EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 (6 instructions)
that contains the part up to the point where the CFAR is saved in the
PACA should be part of the short interrupt vectors before we branch out
to OOL handlers.

But as mentioned already, there are interrupt vectors on 64-bit POWER
server processors that are only 32 bytes long (like vectors 0x4f00,
0x4f20, etc.), which cannot accomodate the above two cases at the same
time owing to space constraint. Currently, in these interrupt vectors,
we simply branch out to OOL handlers, without using LOAD_HANDLER(),
which leaves us vulnerable when running a relocatable kernel (eg. kdump
case). While this has been the case for sometime now and kdump is used
widely, we were fortunate not to see any problems so far, for three
reasons:

  1. In almost all cases, production kernel (relocatable) is used for
     kdump as well, which would mean that crashed kernel's OOL handler
     would be at the same place where we end up branching to, from short
     interrupt vector of kdump kernel.
  2. Also, OOL handler was unlikely the reason for crash in almost all
     the kdump scenarios, which meant we had a sane OOL handler from
     crashed kernel that we branched to.
  3. On most 64-bit POWER server processors, page size is large enough
     that marking interrupt vector code as executable (see commit
     429d2e83) leads to marking OOL handler code from crashed kernel,
     that sits right below interrupt vector code from kdump kernel, as
     executable as well.

Let us fix this by moving the __end_interrupts marker down past OOL
handlers to make sure that we also copy OOL handlers to real address
0x100 when running a relocatable kernel.

This fix has been tested successfully in kdump scenario, on an LPAR with
4K page size by using different default/production kernel and kdump
kernel.

Also tested by manually corrupting the OOL handlers in the first kernel
and then kdump'ing, and then causing the OOL handlers to fire - mpe.

<title>MIPS: ath79: make bootconsole wait for both THRE and TEMT</title>

commit f5b556c94c8490d42fea79d7b4ae0ecbc291e69d upstream.

This makes the ath79 bootconsole behave the same way as the generic 8250
bootconsole.

Also waiting for TEMT (transmit buffer is empty) instead of just THRE
(transmit buffer is not full) ensures that all characters have been
transmitted before the real serial driver starts reconfiguring the serial
controller (which would sometimes result in garbage being transmitted.)
This change does not cause a visible performance loss.

In addition, this seems to fix a hang observed in certain configurations on
many AR7xxx/AR9xxx SoCs during autoconfig of the real serial driver.

A more complete follow-up patch will disable 8250 autoconfig for ath79
altogether (the serial controller is detected as a 16550A, which is not
fully compatible with the ath79 serial, and the autoconfig may lead to
undefined behavior on ath79.)

Commit 85efde6f4e0d ("make exported headers use strict posix types")
changed the asm-generic siginfo.h to use the __kernel_* types, and

been updated to match.

Switch to proper types now so that the exported asm/siginfo.h won't
