commit 1a92a80ad386a1a6e3b36d576d52a1a456394b70 upstream.

There is no guarantee that the various isync's involved with
the context switch will order the update of the CPU mask with
the first TLB entry for the new context being loaded by the HW.

Be safe here and add a memory barrier to order any subsequent
load/store which may bring entries into the TLB.

The corresponding barrier on the other side already exists as
pte updates use pte_xchg() which uses __cmpxchg_u64 which has
a sync after the atomic operation.

<title>x86/mm: Fix use-after-free of ldt_struct</title>

commit ccd5b3235180eef3cfec337df1c8554ab151b5cc upstream.

The following commit:

  39a0526fb3f7 ("x86/mm: Factor out LDT init from context init")

renamed init_new_context() to init_new_context_ldt() and added a new
init_new_context() which calls init_new_context_ldt().  However, the
error code of init_new_context_ldt() was ignored.  Consequently, if a
memory allocation in alloc_ldt_struct() failed during a fork(), the
-&gt;context.ldt of the new task remained the same as that of the old task
(due to the memcpy() in dup_mm()).  ldt_struct's are not intended to be
shared, so a use-after-free occurred after one task exited.

Fix the bug by making init_new_context() pass through the error code of
init_new_context_ldt().

This bug was found by syzkaller, which encountered the following splat:

    static void *fork_thread(void *_arg)

        fork();
    }

    int main(void)
    {
        struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = 8191 };

            }
            wait(NULL);

    }

Note: the reproducer takes advantage of the fact that alloc_ldt_struct()
may use vmalloc() to allocate a large -&gt;entries array, and after
commit:

  5d17a73a2ebe ("vmalloc: back off when the current task is killed")

it is possible for userspace to fail a task's vmalloc() by
sending a fatal signal, e.g. via exit_group().  It would be more
difficult to reproduce this bug on kernels without that commit.

This bug only affected kernels with CONFIG_MODIFY_LDT_SYSCALL=y.

commit dd86e373e09fb16b83e8adf5c48c421a4ca76468 upstream.

The package management code in RAPL relies on package mapping being
available before a CPU is started. This changed with:

  9d85eb9119f4 ("x86/smpboot: Make logical package management more robust")

because the ACPI/BIOS information turned out to be unreliable, but that
left RAPL in broken state. This was not noticed because on a regular boot
all CPUs are online before RAPL is initialized.

A possible fix would be to reintroduce the mess which allocates a package
data structure in CPU prepare and when it turns out to already exist in
starting throw it away later in the CPU online callback. But that's a
horrible hack and not required at all because RAPL becomes functional for
perf only in the CPU online callback. That's correct because user space is
not yet informed about the CPU being onlined, so nothing caan rely on RAPL
being available on that particular CPU.

Move the allocation to the CPU online callback and simplify the hotplug
handling. At this point the package mapping is established and correct.

This also adds a missing check for available package data in the
event_init() function.

commit dd86e373e09fb16b83e8adf5c48c421a4ca76468 upstream.

The package management code in RAPL relies on package mapping being
available before a CPU is started. This changed with:

  9d85eb9119f4 ("x86/smpboot: Make logical package management more robust")

because the ACPI/BIOS information turned out to be unreliable, but that
left RAPL in broken state. This was not noticed because on a regular boot
all CPUs are online before RAPL is initialized.

A possible fix would be to reintroduce the mess which allocates a package
data structure in CPU prepare and when it turns out to already exist in
starting throw it away later in the CPU online callback. But that's a
horrible hack and not required at all because RAPL becomes functional for
perf only in the CPU online callback. That's correct because user space is
not yet informed about the CPU being onlined, so nothing caan rely on RAPL
being available on that particular CPU.

Move the allocation to the CPU online callback and simplify the hotplug
handling. At this point the package mapping is established and correct.

This also adds a missing check for available package data in the
event_init() function.

commit 7d79cee2c6540ea64dd917a14e2fd63d4ac3d3c0 upstream.

It is necessary to explicitly set both SLC_AUX_RGN_START1 and SLC_AUX_RGN_END1
which hold MSB bits of the physical address correspondingly of region start
and end otherwise SLC region operation is executed in unpredictable manner

Without this patch, SLC flushes on HSDK (IOC disabled) were taking
seconds.

commit c469268cd523245cc58255f6696e0c295485cb0b upstream.

If the host has protection keys disabled, we cannot read and write the
guest PKRU---RDPKRU and WRPKRU fail with #GP(0) if CR4.PKE=0.  Block
the PKU cpuid bit in that case.

This ensures that guest_CR4.PKE=1 implies host_CR4.PKE=1.

commit 857b8de96795646c5891cf44ae6fb19b9ff74bf9 upstream.

sthyi should only generate a specification exception if the function
code is zero and the response buffer is not on a 4k boundary.

The current code would also test for unknown function codes if the
response buffer, that is currently only defined for function code 0,
is not on a 4k boundary and incorrectly inject a specification
exception instead of returning with condition code 3 and return code 4
(unsupported function code).

Fix this by moving the boundary check.

commit 4a4eefcd0e49f9f339933324c1bde431186a0a7d upstream.

The sthyi inline assembly misses register r3 within the clobber
list. The sthyi instruction will always write a return code to
register "R2+1", which in this case would be r3. Due to that we may
have register corruption and see host crashes or data corruption
depending on how gcc decided to allocate and use registers during
compile time.

[ Upstream commit 6170a506899aee3dd4934c928426505e47b1b466 ]

There is no need to log message if ATU hvapi couldn't get register.
Unlike PCI hvapi, ATU hvapi registration failure is not hard error.
Even if ATU hvapi registration fails (on system with ATU or without
ATU) system continues with legacy IOMMU. So only log message when
ATU hvapi successfully get registered.

commit 5a69aec945d27e78abac9fd032533d3aaebf7c1e upstream.

VSX uses a combination of the old vector registers, the old FP
registers and new "second halves" of the FP registers.

Thus when we need to see the VSX state in the thread struct
(flush_vsx_to_thread()) or when we'll use the VSX in the kernel
(enable_kernel_vsx()) we need to ensure they are all flushed into
the thread struct if either of them is individually enabled.

Unfortunately we only tested if the whole VSX was enabled, not if they
were individually enabled.
