commit 994870bead4ab19087a79492400a5478e2906196 upstream.

When an inline assembly operand's type is narrower than the register it
is allocated to, the least significant bits of the register (up to the
operand type's width) are valid, and any other bits are permitted to
contain any arbitrary value. This aligns with the AAPCS64 parameter
passing rules.

Our __smp_store_release() implementation does not account for this, and
implicitly assumes that operands have been zero-extended to the width of
the type being stored to. Thus, we may store unknown values to memory
when the value type is narrower than the pointer type (e.g. when storing
a char to a long).

This patch fixes the issue by casting the value operand to the same
width as the pointer operand in all cases, which ensures that the value
is zero-extended as we expect. We use the same union trickery as
__smp_load_acquire and {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() to avoid GCC complaining that
pointers are potentially cast to narrower width integers in unreachable
paths.

A whitespace issue at the top of __smp_store_release() is also
corrected.

No changes are necessary for __smp_load_acquire(). Load instructions
implicitly clear any upper bits of the register, and the compiler will
only consider the least significant bits of the register as valid
regardless.

commit 55de49f9aa17b0b2b144dd2af587177b9aadf429 upstream.

Our compat swp emulation holds the compat user address in an unsigned
int, which it passes to __user_swpX_asm(). When a 32-bit value is passed
in a register, the upper 32 bits of the register are unknown, and we
must extend the value to 64 bits before we can use it as a base address.

This patch casts the address to unsigned long to ensure it has been
suitably extended, avoiding the potential issue, and silencing a related
warning from clang.

commit 276e93279a630657fff4b086ba14c95955912dfa upstream.

This backport has a minor difference from the upstream commit: it adds
the asm-uaccess.h file, which is not present in 4.4, because 4.4 does
not have commit b4b8664d291a ("arm64: don't pull uaccess.h into *.S").

Original patch description:

When handling a data abort from EL0, we currently zero the top byte of
the faulting address, as we assume the address is a TTBR0 address, which
may contain a non-zero address tag. However, the address may be a TTBR1
address, in which case we should not zero the top byte. This patch fixes
that. The effect is that the full TTBR1 address is passed to the task's
signal handler (or printed out in the kernel log).

When handling a data abort from EL1, we leave the faulting address
intact, as we assume it's either a TTBR1 address or a TTBR0 address with
tag 0x00. This is true as far as I'm aware, we don't seem to access a
tagged TTBR0 address anywhere in the kernel. Regardless, it's easy to
forget about address tags, and code added in the future may not always
remember to remove tags from addresses before accessing them. So add tag
handling to the EL1 data abort handler as well. This also makes it
consistent with the EL0 data abort handler.

<title>arm64: hw_breakpoint: fix watchpoint matching for tagged pointers</title>

commit 7dcd9dd8cebe9fa626af7e2358d03a37041a70fb upstream.

This backport has a few small differences from the upstream commit:
 - The address tag is removed in watchpoint_handler() instead of
   get_distance_from_watchpoint(), because 4.4 does not have commit
   fdfeff0f9e3d ("arm64: hw_breakpoint: Handle inexact watchpoint
   addresses").
 - A macro is backported (untagged_addr), as it is not present in 4.4.

Original patch description:

When we take a watchpoint exception, the address that triggered the
watchpoint is found in FAR_EL1. We compare it to the address of each
configured watchpoint to see which one was hit.

The configured watchpoint addresses are untagged, while the address in
FAR_EL1 will have an address tag if the data access was done using a
tagged address. The tag needs to be removed to compare the address to
the watchpoints.

Currently we don't remove it, and as a result can report the wrong
watchpoint as being hit (specifically, always either the highest TTBR0
watchpoint or lowest TTBR1 watchpoint). This patch removes the tag.

commit dc421b200f91930c9c6a9586810ff8c232cf10fc upstream.

When adding or removing memory, the aa_index (affinity value) for the
memblock must also be converted to match the endianness of the rest
of the 'ibm,dynamic-memory' property.  Otherwise, subsequent retrieval
of the attribute will likely lead to non-existent nodes, followed by
using the default node in the code inappropriately.

<title>powerpc/numa: Fix percpu allocations to be NUMA aware</title>

<content type='text'>
commit ba4a648f12f4cd0a8003dd229b6ca8a53348ee4b upstream.

In commit 8c272261194d ("powerpc/numa: Enable USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID"), we
switched to the generic implementation of cpu_to_node(), which uses a percpu
variable to hold the NUMA node for each CPU.

Unfortunately we neglected to notice that we use cpu_to_node() in the allocation
of our percpu areas, leading to a chicken and egg problem. In practice what
happens is when we are setting up the percpu areas, cpu_to_node() reports that
all CPUs are on node 0, so we allocate all percpu areas on node 0.

This is visible in the dmesg output, as all pcpu allocs being in group 0:

  pcpu-alloc: [0] 00 01 02 03 [0] 04 05 06 07
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 08 09 10 11 [0] 12 13 14 15
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 16 17 18 19 [0] 20 21 22 23
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 24 25 26 27 [0] 28 29 30 31
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 32 33 34 35 [0] 36 37 38 39
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 40 41 42 43 [0] 44 45 46 47

To fix it we need an early_cpu_to_node() which can run prior to percpu being
setup. We already have the numa_cpu_lookup_table we can use, so just plumb it
in. With the patch dmesg output shows two groups, 0 and 1:

  pcpu-alloc: [0] 00 01 02 03 [0] 04 05 06 07
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 08 09 10 11 [0] 12 13 14 15
  pcpu-alloc: [0] 16 17 18 19 [0] 20 21 22 23
  pcpu-alloc: [1] 24 25 26 27 [1] 28 29 30 31
  pcpu-alloc: [1] 32 33 34 35 [1] 36 37 38 39
  pcpu-alloc: [1] 40 41 42 43 [1] 44 45 46 47

We can also check the data_offset in the paca of various CPUs, with the fix we
see:

  CPU 0:  data_offset = 0x0ffe8b0000
  CPU 24: data_offset = 0x1ffe5b0000

And we can see from dmesg that CPU 24 has an allocation on node 1:

  node   0: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000fffffffff]
  node   1: [mem 0x0000001000000000-0x0000001fffffffff]

<title>powerpc/eeh: Avoid use after free in eeh_handle_special_event()</title>

commit daeba2956f32f91f3493788ff6ee02fb1b2f02fa upstream.

eeh_handle_special_event() is called when an EEH event is detected but
can't be narrowed down to a specific PE.  This function looks through
every PE to find one in an erroneous state, then calls the regular event
handler eeh_handle_normal_event() once it knows which PE has an error.

However, if eeh_handle_normal_event() found that the PE cannot possibly
be recovered, it will free it, rendering the passed PE stale.
This leads to a use after free in eeh_handle_special_event() as it attempts to
clear the "recovering" state on the PE after eeh_handle_normal_event() returns.

Thus, make sure the PE is valid when attempting to clear state in
eeh_handle_special_event().

<title>KVM: arm/arm64: Handle possible NULL stage2 pud when ageing pages</title>

commit d6dbdd3c8558cad3b6d74cc357b408622d122331 upstream.

Under memory pressure, we start ageing pages, which amounts to parsing
the page tables. Since we don't want to allocate any extra level,
we pass NULL for our private allocation cache. Which means that
stage2_get_pud() is allowed to fail. This results in the following
splat:

This is triggered by running both win7 and win2016 on L1 KVM simultaneously,
and then gives stress to memory on L1, I can observed this hang on L1 when
at least ~70% swap area is occupied on L0.

This is due to async pf was injected to L2 which should be injected to L1,
L2 guest starts receiving pagefault w/ bogus %cr2(apf token from the host
actually), and L1 guest starts accumulating tasks stuck in D state in
kvm_async_pf_task_wait() since missing PAGE_READY async_pfs.

This patch fixes the hang by doing async pf when executing L1 guest.

commit 33b5c38852b29736f3b472dd095c9a18ec22746f upstream.

We currently have the HSCTLR.A bit set, trapping unaligned accesses
at HYP, but we're not really prepared to deal with it.

Since the rest of the kernel is pretty happy about that, let's follow
its example and set HSCTLR.A to zero. Modern CPUs don't really care.
