commit 8310b77b48c5558c140e7a57a702e7819e62f04e upstream.

Bailing immediately from set_foreign_p2m_mapping() upon a p2m updating
error leaves the full batch in an ambiguous state as far as the caller
is concerned. Instead flags respective slots as bad, unmapping what
was mapped there right away.

HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op()'s return value and the individual unmap
slots' status fields get used only for a one-time - there's not much we
can do in case of a failure.

Note that there's no GNTST_enomem or alike, so GNTST_general_error gets
used.

The map ops' handle fields get overwritten just to be on the safe side.

This is part of XSA-367.

[ Upstream commit bb73d07148c405c293e576b40af37737faf23a6a ]

This is similar to commit

  b21ebf2fb4cd ("x86: Treat R_X86_64_PLT32 as R_X86_64_PC32")

but for i386. As far as the kernel is concerned, R_386_PLT32 can be
treated the same as R_386_PC32.

R_386_PLT32/R_X86_64_PLT32 are PC-relative relocation types which
can only be used by branches. If the referenced symbol is defined
externally, a PLT will be used.

R_386_PC32/R_X86_64_PC32 are PC-relative relocation types which can be
used by address taking operations and branches. If the referenced symbol
is defined externally, a copy relocation/canonical PLT entry will be
created in the executable.

On x86-64, there is no PIC vs non-PIC PLT distinction and an
R_X86_64_PLT32 relocation is produced for both `call/jmp foo` and
`call/jmp foo@PLT` with newer (2018) GNU as/LLVM integrated assembler.
This avoids canonical PLT entries (st_shndx=0, st_value!=0).

On i386, there are 2 types of PLTs, PIC and non-PIC. Currently,
the GCC/GNU as convention is to use R_386_PC32 for non-PIC PLT and
R_386_PLT32 for PIC PLT. Copy relocations/canonical PLT entries
are possible ABI issues but GCC/GNU as will likely keep the status
quo because (1) the ABI is legacy (2) the change will drop a GNU
ld diagnostic for non-default visibility ifunc in shared objects.

clang-12 -fno-pic (since [1]) can emit R_386_PLT32 for compiler
generated function declarations, because preventing canonical PLT
entries is weighed over the rare ifunc diagnostic.

On this system the M.2 PCIe WiFi card isn't detected after reboot, only
after cold boot. reboot=pci fixes this behavior. In [0] the same issue
is described, although on another system and with another Intel WiFi
card. In case it's relevant, both systems have Celeron CPUs.

Add a PCI reboot quirk on affected systems until a more generic fix is
available.

<title>sparc32: fix a user-triggerable oops in clear_user()</title>

commit 7780918b36489f0b2f9a3749d7be00c2ceaec513 upstream.

Back in 2.1.29 the clear_user() guts (__bzero()) had been merged
with memset().  Unfortunately, while all exception handlers had been
copied, one of the exception table entries got lost.  As the result,
clear_user() starting at 128*n bytes before the end of page and
spanning between 8 and 127 bytes into the next page would oops when
the second page is unmapped.  It's trivial to reproduce - all
it takes is

main()
{
	int fd = open("/dev/zero", O_RDONLY);
	char *p = mmap(NULL, 16384, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
			MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, -1, 0);
	munmap(p + 8192, 8192);
	read(fd, p + 8192 - 128, 192);
}

which had been oopsing since March 1997.  Says something about
the quality of test coverage... ;-/  And while today sparc32 port
is nearly dead, back in '97 it had been very much alive; in fact,
sparc64 had only been in mainline for 3 months by that point...

commit ed72736183c45a413a8d6974dd04be90f514cb6b upstream.

Force all CPUs to do VMXOFF (via NMI shootdown) during an emergency
reboot if VMX is _supported_, as VMX being off on the current CPU does
not prevent other CPUs from being in VMX root (post-VMXON).  This fixes
a bug where a crash/panic reboot could leave other CPUs in VMX root and
prevent them from being woken via INIT-SIPI-SIPI in the new kernel.

<title>block: Move SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT definitions into &lt;linux/blkdev.h&gt;</title>

commit 233bde21aa43516baa013ef7ac33f3427056db3e upstream.

It happens often while I'm preparing a patch for a block driver that
I'm wondering: is a definition of SECTOR_SIZE and/or SECTOR_SHIFT
available for this driver? Do I have to introduce definitions of these
constants before I can use these constants? To avoid this confusion,
move the existing definitions of SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT into the
&lt;linux/blkdev.h&gt; header file such that these become available for all
block drivers. Make the SECTOR_SIZE definition in the uapi msdos_fs.h
header file conditional to avoid that including that header file after
&lt;linux/blkdev.h&gt; causes the compiler to complain about a SECTOR_SIZE
redefinition.

Note: the SECTOR_SIZE / SECTOR_SHIFT / SECTOR_BITS definitions have
not been removed from uapi header files nor from NAND drivers in
which these constants are used for another purpose than converting
block layer offsets and sizes into a number of sectors.

[ Upstream commit 80bddf5c93a99e11fc9faf7e4b575d01cecd45d3 ]

Currently COMPAT on SPARC64 selects COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF unconditionally,
even when BINFMT_ELF is not enabled. This causes a kconfig warning.

Instead, just select COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF if BINFMT_ELF is enabled.
This builds cleanly with no kconfig warnings.

[ Upstream commit 768d70e19ba525debd571b36e6d0ab19956c63d7 ]

dlpar_configure_connector() has two problems in its handling of
ibm,configure-connector's return status:

1. When the status is -2 (busy, call again), we call
   ibm,configure-connector again immediately without checking whether
   to schedule, which can result in monopolizing the CPU.
2. Extended delay status (9900..9905) goes completely unhandled,
   causing the configuration to unnecessarily terminate.

Fix both of these issues by using rtas_busy_delay().

<title>ARM: 9046/1: decompressor: Do not clear SCTLR.nTLSMD for ARMv7+ cores</title>

[ Upstream commit 2acb909750431030b65a0a2a17fd8afcbd813a84 ]

It was observed that decompressor running on hardware implementing ARM v8.2
Load/Store Multiple Atomicity and Ordering Control (LSMAOC), say, as guest,
would stuck just after:

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

The reason is that it clears nTLSMD bit when disabling caches:

  nTLSMD, bit [3]

  When ARMv8.2-LSMAOC is implemented:

    No Trap Load Multiple and Store Multiple to
    Device-nGRE/Device-nGnRE/Device-nGnRnE memory.

    0b0 All memory accesses by A32 and T32 Load Multiple and Store
        Multiple at EL1 or EL0 that are marked at stage 1 as
        Device-nGRE/Device-nGnRE/Device-nGnRnE memory are trapped and
        generate a stage 1 Alignment fault.

    0b1 All memory accesses by A32 and T32 Load Multiple and Store
        Multiple at EL1 or EL0 that are marked at stage 1 as
        Device-nGRE/Device-nGnRE/Device-nGnRnE memory are not trapped.

  This bit is permitted to be cached in a TLB.

  This field resets to 1.

  Otherwise:

  Reserved, RES1

So as effect we start getting traps we are not quite ready for.

Looking into history it seems that mask used for SCTLR clear came from
the similar code for ARMv4, where bit[3] is the enable/disable bit for
the write buffer. That not applicable to ARMv7 and onwards, so retire
that bit from the masks.

[ Upstream commit 910a0cb6d259736a0c86e795d4c2f42af8d0d775 ]

PPC47x_TLBE_SIZE isn't defined for 256k pages, leading to a build
break if 256k pages is selected.

So change the kconfig so that 256k pages can't be selected for 47x.
