commit d08544127d9fb4505635e3cb6871fd50a42947bd upstream.

The suspend/resume path in kernel/sleep.S, as used by cpu-idle, does not
save/restore PSTATE. As a result of this cpufeatures that were detected
and have bits in PSTATE get lost when we resume from idle.

UAO gets set appropriately on the next context switch. PAN will be
re-enabled next time we return from user-space, but on a preemptible
kernel we may run work accessing user space before this point.

Add code to re-enable theses two features in __cpu_suspend_exit().
We re-use uao_thread_switch() passing current.

commit 7209c868600bd8926e37c10b9aae83124ccc1dd8 upstream.

Commit 338d4f49d6f7 ("arm64: kernel: Add support for Privileged Access
Never") enabled PAN by enabling the 'SPAN' feature-bit in SCTLR_EL1.
This means the PSTATE.PAN bit won't be set until the next return to the
kernel from userspace. On a preemptible kernel we may schedule work that
accesses userspace on a CPU before it has done this.

Now that cpufeature enable() calls are scheduled via stop_machine(), we
can set PSTATE.PAN from the cpu_enable_pan() call.

Add WARN_ON_ONCE(in_interrupt()) to check the PSTATE value we updated
is not immediately discarded.

<title>arm64: cpufeature: Schedule enable() calls instead of calling them via IPI</title>

commit 2a6dcb2b5f3e21592ca8dfa198dcce7bec09b020 upstream.

The enable() call for a cpufeature/errata is called using on_each_cpu().
This issues a cross-call IPI to get the work done. Implicitly, this
stashes the running PSTATE in SPSR when the CPU receives the IPI, and
restores it when we return. This means an enable() call can never modify
PSTATE.

To allow PAN to do this, change the on_each_cpu() call to use
stop_machine(). This schedules the work on each CPU which allows
us to modify PSTATE.

This involves changing the protype of all the enable() functions.

enable_cpu_capabilities() is called during boot and enables the feature
on all online CPUs. This path now uses stop_machine(). CPU features for
hotplug'd CPUs are enabled by verify_local_cpu_features() which only
acts on the local CPU, and can already modify the running PSTATE as it
is called from secondary_start_kernel().

<title>x86/traps: Ignore high word of regs-&gt;cs in early_fixup_exception()</title>

commit fc0e81b2bea0ebceb71889b61d2240856141c9ee upstream.

On the 80486 DX, it seems that some exceptions may leave garbage in
the high bits of CS.  This causes sporadic failures in which
early_fixup_exception() refuses to fix up an exception.

As far as I can tell, this has been buggy for a long time, but the
problem seems to have been exacerbated by commits:

  1e02ce4cccdc ("x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4")
  e1bfc11c5a6f ("x86/init: Fix cr4_init_shadow() on CR4-less machines")

This appears to have broken for as long as we've had early
exception handling.

[ This backport should apply to kernels from 3.4 - 4.5. ]

Fixes: 4c5023a3fa2e ("x86-32: Handle exception table entries during early boot")

commit 5035b230e7b67ac12691ed3b5495bbb617027b68 upstream.

This is the second issue I noticed in reviewing the parisc TLB code.

The fic instruction may use either the instruction or data TLB in
flushing the instruction cache.  Thus, on machines with a split TLB, we
should also flush the data TLB after setting up the temporary alias
registers.

Although this has no functional impact, I changed the pdtlb and pitlb
instructions to consistently use the index register %r0.  These
instructions do not support integer displacements.

Tested on rp3440 and c8000.

commit c0452fb9fb8f49c7d68ab9fa0ad092016be7b45f upstream.

We are still troubled by occasional random segmentation faults and
memory memory corruption on SMP machines.  The causes quite a few
package builds to fail on the Debian buildd machines for parisc.  When
gcc-6 failed to build three times in a row, I looked again at the TLB
related code.  I found a couple of issues.  This is the first.

In general, we need to ensure page table updates and corresponding TLB
purges are atomic.  The attached patch fixes an instance in pci-dma.c
where the page table update was not guarded by the TLB lock.

Tested on rp3440 and c8000.  So far, no further random segmentation
faults have been observed.

We have the insn 0x43ffff80 in IIR but from IAOQ we should have:

Cpu0 has just completed running parisc_setup_cache_timing:

[    2.928039] Unaligned handler failed, ret = -1

From the backtrace, cpu1 is in smp_callin:

void __init smp_callin(void)
{
       int slave_id = cpu_now_booting;

       smp_cpu_init(slave_id);
       preempt_disable();

       flush_cache_all_local(); /* start with known state */
       flush_tlb_all_local(NULL);

       local_irq_enable();  /* Interrupts have been off until now */

       cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

So, it has just flushed its caches and the TLB. It would seem either the
flushes in parisc_setup_cache_timing or smp_callin have corrupted kernel
memory.

The attached patch reworks parisc_setup_cache_timing to remove the races
in setting the cache and TLB flush thresholds. It also corrects the
number of bytes flushed in the TLB calculation.

The patch flushes the cache and TLB on cpu0 before starting the
secondary processors so that they are started from a known state.

Tested with a few reboots on c8000.

<title>tile: avoid using clocksource_cyc2ns with absolute cycle count</title>

commit e658a6f14d7c0243205f035979d0ecf6c12a036f upstream.

For large values of "mult" and long uptimes, the intermediate
result of "cycles * mult" can overflow 64 bits.  For example,
the tile platform calls clocksource_cyc2ns with a 1.2 GHz clock;
we have mult = 853, and after 208.5 days, we overflow 64 bits.

Since clocksource_cyc2ns() is intended to be used for relative
cycle counts, not absolute cycle counts, performance is more
importance than accepting a wider range of cycle values.  So,
just use mult_frac() directly in tile's sched_clock().

Commit 4cecf6d401a0 ("sched, x86: Avoid unnecessary overflow
in sched_clock") by Salman Qazi results in essentially the same
generated code for x86 as this change does for tile.  In fact,
a follow-on change by Salman introduced mult_frac() and switched
to using it, so the C code was largely identical at that point too.

Peter Zijlstra then added mul_u64_u32_shr() and switched x86
to use it.  This is, in principle, better; by optimizing the
64x64-&gt;64 multiplies to be 32x32-&gt;64 multiplies we can potentially
save some time.  However, the compiler piplines the 64x64-&gt;64
multiplies pretty well, and the conditional branch in the generic
mul_u64_u32_shr() causes some bubbles in execution, with the
result that it's pretty much a wash.  If tilegx provided its own
implementation of mul_u64_u32_shr() without the conditional branch,
we could potentially save 3 cycles, but that seems like small gain
for a fair amount of additional build scaffolding; no other platform
currently provides a mul_u64_u32_shr() override, and tile doesn't
currently have an &lt;asm/div64.h&gt; header to put the override in.

Additionally, gcc currently has an optimization bug that prevents
it from recognizing the opportunity to use a 32x32-&gt;64 multiply,
and so the result would be no better than the existing mult_frac()
until such time as the compiler is fixed.

For now, just using mult_frac() seems like the right answer.

commit df492896e6dfb44fd1154f5402428d8e52705081 upstream.

Split irqchip allows pic and ioapic routes to be used without them being
created, which results in NULL access.  Check for NULL and avoid it.
(The setup is too racy for a nicer solutions.)

commit df492896e6dfb44fd1154f5402428d8e52705081 upstream.

Split irqchip allows pic and ioapic routes to be used without them being
created, which results in NULL access.  Check for NULL and avoid it.
(The setup is too racy for a nicer solutions.)
