commit a60ae81e5e5918138703f22427dd8f2445985b55 upstream.

Fix mips_cm_max_vp_width for UP kernels where it previously referenced
smp_num_siblings, which is not declared for UP kernels. This led to
build errors such as the following:

  drivers/built-in.o: In function `$L446':
  irq-mips-gic.c:(.text+0x1994): undefined reference to `smp_num_siblings'
  drivers/built-in.o:irq-mips-gic.c:(.text+0x199c): more undefined references to `smp_num_siblings' follow

On UP kernels simply return 1, leaving the reference to smp_num_siblings
in place only for SMP kernels.

commit 749d088b8e7f4b9826ede02b9a043e417fa84aa1 upstream.

Protocol for the "version" fields is: hypervisor raises it (making it
uneven) before it starts updating the fields and raises it again (making
it even) when it is done.  Thus the guest can make sure the time values
it got are consistent by checking the version before and after reading
them.

Add CPU barries after getting version value just like what function
vread_pvclock does, because all of callees in this function is inline.

commit f52e126cc7476196f44f3c313b7d9f0699a881fc upstream.

With recent binutils update to support dwarf CFI pseudo-ops in gas, we
now get .eh_frame vs. .debug_frame. Although the call frame info is
exactly the same in both, the CIE differs, which the current kernel
unwinder can't cope with.

This broke both the kernel unwinder as well as loadable modules (latter
because of a new unhandled relo R_ARC_32_PCREL from .rela.eh_frame in
the module loader)

The ideal solution would be to switch unwinder to .eh_frame.
For now however we can make do by just ensureing .debug_frame is
generated by removing -fasynchronous-unwind-tables

 .eh_frame    generated with -gdwarf-2 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables
 .debug_frame generated with -gdwarf-2

commit 9bd54517ee86cb164c734f72ea95aeba4804f10b upstream.

If CONFIG_ARC_DW2_UNWIND is disabled every time arc_unwind_core()
gets called following message gets printed in debug console:
-----------------&gt;8---------------
CONFIG_ARC_DW2_UNWIND needs to be enabled
-----------------&gt;8---------------

That message makes sense if user indeed wants to see a backtrace or
get nice function call-graphs in perf but what if user disabled
unwinder for the purpose? Why pollute his debug console?

So instead we'll warn user about possibly missing feature once and
let him decide if that was what he or she really wanted.

<title>x86/quirks: Add early quirk to reset Apple AirPort card</title>

commit abb2bafd295fe962bbadc329dbfb2146457283ac upstream.

The EFI firmware on Macs contains a full-fledged network stack for
downloading OS X images from osrecovery.apple.com. Unfortunately
on Macs introduced 2011 and 2012, EFI brings up the Broadcom 4331
wireless card on every boot and leaves it enabled even after
ExitBootServices has been called. The card continues to assert its IRQ
line, causing spurious interrupts if the IRQ is shared. It also corrupts
memory by DMAing received packets, allowing for remote code execution
over the air. This only stops when a driver is loaded for the wireless
card, which may be never if the driver is not installed or blacklisted.

The issue seems to be constrained to the Broadcom 4331. Chris Milsted
has verified that the newer Broadcom 4360 built into the MacBookPro11,3
(2013/2014) does not exhibit this behaviour. The chances that Apple will
ever supply a firmware fix for the older machines appear to be zero.

The solution is to reset the card on boot by writing to a reset bit in
its mmio space. This must be done as an early quirk and not as a plain
vanilla PCI quirk to successfully combat memory corruption by DMAed
packets: Matthew Garrett found out in 2012 that the packets are written
to EfiBootServicesData memory (http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/11235.html).
This type of memory is made available to the page allocator by
efi_free_boot_services(). Plain vanilla PCI quirks run much later, in
subsys initcall level. In-between a time window would be open for memory
corruption. Random crashes occurring in this time window and attributed
to DMAed packets have indeed been observed in the wild by Chris
Bainbridge.

When Matthew Garrett analyzed the memory corruption issue in 2012, he
sought to fix it with a grub quirk which transitions the card to D3hot:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/commit/?id=9d34bb85da56

This approach does not help users with other bootloaders and while it
may prevent DMAed packets, it does not cure the spurious interrupts
emanating from the card. Unfortunately the card's mmio space is
inaccessible in D3hot, so to reset it, we have to undo the effect of
Matthew's grub patch and transition the card back to D0.

Note that the quirk takes a few shortcuts to reduce the amount of code:
The size of BAR 0 and the location of the PM capability is identical
on all affected machines and therefore hardcoded. Only the address of
BAR 0 differs between models. Also, it is assumed that the BCMA core
currently mapped is the 802.11 core. The EFI driver seems to always take
care of this.

Michael Büsch, Bjorn Helgaas and Matt Fleming contributed feedback
towards finding the best solution to this problem.

The following should be a comprehensive list of affected models:
    iMac13,1        2012  21.5"       [Root Port 00:1c.3 = 8086:1e16]
    iMac13,2        2012  27"         [Root Port 00:1c.3 = 8086:1e16]
    Macmini5,1      2011  i5 2.3 GHz  [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12]
    Macmini5,2      2011  i5 2.5 GHz  [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12]
    Macmini5,3      2011  i7 2.0 GHz  [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12]
    Macmini6,1      2012  i5 2.5 GHz  [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12]
    Macmini6,2      2012  i7 2.3 GHz  [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12]
    MacBookPro8,1   2011  13"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12]
    MacBookPro8,2   2011  15"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12]
    MacBookPro8,3   2011  17"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1c12]
    MacBookPro9,1   2012  15"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12]
    MacBookPro9,2   2012  13"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12]
    MacBookPro10,1  2012  15"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12]
    MacBookPro10,2  2012  13"         [Root Port 00:1c.1 = 8086:1e12]

For posterity, spurious interrupts caused by the Broadcom 4331 wireless
card resulted in splats like this (stacktrace omitted):

    irq 17: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
    handlers:
    [&lt;ffffffff81374370&gt;] pcie_isr
    [&lt;ffffffffc0704550&gt;] sdhci_irq [sdhci] threaded [&lt;ffffffffc07013c0&gt;] sdhci_thread_irq [sdhci]
    [&lt;ffffffffc0a0b960&gt;] azx_interrupt [snd_hda_codec]
    Disabling IRQ #17

<title>x86/quirks: Reintroduce scanning of secondary buses</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 850c321027c2e31d0afc71588974719a4b565550 upstream.

We used to scan secondary buses until the following commit that
was applied in 2009:

  8659c406ade3 ("x86: only scan the root bus in early PCI quirks")

which commit constrained early quirks to the root bus only. Its
motivation was to prevent application of the nvidia_bugs quirk
on secondary buses.

We're about to add a quirk to reset the Broadcom 4331 wireless card on
2011/2012 Macs, which is located on a secondary bus behind a PCIe root
port. To facilitate that, reintroduce scanning of secondary buses.

The commit message of 8659c406ade3 notes that scanning only the root bus
"saves quite some unnecessary scanning work". The algorithm used prior
to 8659c406ade3 was particularly time consuming because it scanned
buses 0 to 31 brute force. To avoid lengthening boot time, employ a
recursive strategy which only scans buses that are actually reachable
from the root bus.

Yinghai Lu pointed out that the secondary bus number read from a
bridge's config space may be invalid, in particular a value of 0 would
cause an infinite loop. The PCI core goes beyond that and recurses to a
child bus only if its bus number is greater than the parent bus number
(see pci_scan_bridge()). Since the root bus is numbered 0, this implies
that secondary buses may not be 0. Do the same on early scanning.

If this algorithm is found to significantly impact boot time or cause
infinite loops on broken hardware, it would be possible to limit its
recursion depth: The Broadcom 4331 quirk applies at depth 1, all others
at depth 0, so the bus need not be scanned deeper than that for now. An
alternative approach would be to revert to scanning only the root bus,
and apply the Broadcom 4331 quirk to the root ports 8086:1c12, 8086:1e12
and 8086:1e16. Apple always positioned the card behind either of these
three ports. The quirk would then check presence of the card in slot 0
below the root port and do its deed.

Since the following commit:

... early quirks are only applied to devices on the root bus.

commit 5419447e2142d6ed68c9f5c1a28630b3a290a845 upstream.

This reverts commit 852ffd0f4e23248b47531058e531066a988434b5.

There are use cases where an intermediate boot kernel (1) uses kexec
to boot the final production kernel (2). For this scenario we should
provide the original boot information to the production kernel (2).
Therefore clearing the boot information during kexec() should not
be done.

commit bcf4dd5f9ee096bd1510f838dd4750c35df4e38b upstream.

The test_fp_ctl function is used to test if a given value is a valid
floating-point control. The inline assembly in test_fp_ctl uses an
incorrect constraint for the 'orig_fpc' variable. If the compiler
chooses the same register for 'fpc' and 'orig_fpc' the test_fp_ctl()
function always returns true. This allows user space to trigger
kernel oopses with invalid floating-point control values on the
signal stack.

This problem has been introduced with git commit 4725c86055f5bbdcdf

commit c5379ba8fccd99d5f99632c789f0393d84a57805 upstream.

Until now, our understanding for HW I/O coherency to work on the
Cortex-A9 based Marvell SoC was that only the PCIe regions should be
mapped strongly-ordered. However, we were still encountering some
deadlocks, especially when testing the CESA crypto engine. After
checking with the HW designers, it was concluded that all the MMIO
registers should be mapped as strongly ordered for the HW I/O coherency
mechanism to work properly.

This fixes some easy to reproduce deadlocks with the CESA crypto engine
driver (dmcrypt on a sufficiently large disk partition).
