Since 906c55579a ("timekeeping: Copy the shadow-timekeeper over the
real timekeeper last") it has become possible on arm64 to:
- Obtain a CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE or CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE timestamp
via syscall.
- Subsequently obtain a timestamp for the same clock ID via VDSO which
predates the first timestamp (by one jiffy).
This is because arm64's update_vsyscall is deriving the coarse time
using the __current_kernel_time interface, when it should really be
using the timekeeper object provided to it by the timekeeping core.
It happened to work before only because __current_kernel_time would
access the same timekeeper object which had been passed to
update_vsyscall. This is no longer the case.

Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
"Another round of MIPS fixes for 4.2. No area does particularly stand
out but we have a two unpleasant ones:
- Kernel ptes are marked with a global bit which allows the kernel to
share kernel TLB entries between all processes. For this to work
both entries of an adjacent even/odd pte pair need to have the
global bit set. There has been a subtle race in setting the other
entry's global bit since ~ 2000 but it take particularly
pathological workloads that essentially do mostly vmalloc/vfree to
trigger this.
This pull request fixes the 64-bit case but leaves the case of 32
bit CPUs with 64 bit ptes unsolved for now. The unfixed cases
affect hardware that is not available in the field yet.
- Instruction emulation requires loading instructions from user space
but the current fast but simplistic approach will fail on pages
that are PROT_EXEC but !PROT_READ. For this reason we temporarily
do not permit this permission and will map pages with PROT_EXEC |
PROT_READ.
The remainder of this pull request is more or less across the field
and the short log explains them well"

If we have a series of events from userpsace, with %fprs=FPRS_FEF,
like follows:
ETRAP
ETRAP
VIS_ENTRY(fprs=0x4)
VIS_EXIT
RTRAP (kernel FPU restore with fpu_saved=0x4)
RTRAP
We will not restore the user registers that were clobbered by the FPU
using kernel code in the inner-most trap.
Traps allocate FPU save slots in the thread struct, and FPU using
sequences save the "dirty" FPU registers only.
This works at the initial trap level because all of the registers
get recorded into the top-level FPU save area, and we'll return
to userspace with the FPU disabled so that any FPU use by the user
will take an FPU disabled trap wherein we'll load the registers
back up properly.
But this is not how trap returns from kernel to kernel operate.
The simplest fix for this bug is to always save all FPU register state
for anything other than the top-most FPU save area.
Getting rid of the optimized inner-slot FPU saving code ends up
making VISEntryHalf degenerate into plain VISEntry.
Longer term we need to do something smarter to reinstate the partial
save optimizations. Perhaps the fundament error is having trap entry
and exit allocate FPU save slots and restore register state. Instead,
the VISEntry et al. calls should be doing that work.
This bug is about two decades old.

This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a
positive si_code value. The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields
in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently
between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_to_user.
copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits
of si_code.
This fixes the following information leaks:
x86: 8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32.
(si_code = __SI_CHLD)
x86: 100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1)
sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a
64-bit process. (si_code = any)
parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because
rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code
to a different process. These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

On MIPS the GLOBAL bit of the PTE must have the same value in any
aligned pair of PTEs. These pairs of PTEs are referred to as
"buddies". In a SMP system is is possible for two CPUs to be calling
set_pte() on adjacent PTEs at the same time. There is a race between
setting the PTE and a different CPU setting the GLOBAL bit in its
buddy PTE.
This race can be observed when multiple CPUs are executing
vmap()/vfree() at the same time.
Make setting the buddy PTE's GLOBAL bit an atomic operation to close
the race condition.
The case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR && CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32 is *not*

The previous commit for delayed retry of SCOND needs some fine tuning
for spin locks.
The backoff from delayed retry in conjunction with spin looping of lock
itself can potentially cause the delay counter to reach high values.
So to provide fairness to any lock operation, after a lock "seems"
available (i.e. just before first SCOND try0, reset the delay counter
back to starting value of 1
Essentially reset delay to 1 for a new spin-wait-loop-acquire cycle.

This is to workaround the llock/scond livelock
HS38x4 could get into a LLOCK/SCOND livelock in case of multiple overlapping
coherency transactions in the SCU. The exclusive line state keeps rotating
among contenting cores leading to a never ending cycle. So break the cycle
by deferring the retry of failed exclusive access (SCOND). The actual delay
needed is function of number of contending cores as well as the unrelated
coherency traffic from other cores. To keep the code simple, start off with
small delay of 1 which would suffice most cases and in case of contention
double the delay. Eventually the delay is sufficient such that the coherency
pipeline is drained, thus a subsequent exclusive access would succeed.

With LLOCK/SCOND, the rwlock counter can be atomically updated w/o need
for a guarding spin lock.
This in turn elides the EXchange instruction based spinning which causes
the cacheline transition to exclusive state and concurrent spinning
across cores would cause the line to keep bouncing around.
LLOCK/SCOND based implementation is superior as spinning on LLOCK keeps
the cacheline in shared state.

Current spin_lock uses EXchange instruction to implement the atomic test
and set of lock location (reads orig value and ST 1). This however forces
the cacheline into exclusive state (because of the ST) and concurrent
loops in multiple cores will bounce the line around between cores.
Instead, use LLOCK/SCOND to implement the atomic test and set which is
better as line is in shared state while lock is spinning on LLOCK
The real motivation of this change however is to make way for future
changes in atomics to implement delayed retry (with backoff).
Initial experiment with delayed retry in atomics combined with orig
EX based spinlock was a total disaster (broke even LMBench) as
struct sock has a cache line sharing an atomic_t and spinlock. The
tight spinning on lock, caused the atomic retry to keep backing off
such that it would never finish.

otherwise kernel mode RPS mispredicts may trigger speculative fetches of
user return addresses, which may be sensitive in the kernel address
space due to EVA's overlapping user/kernel address spaces.

This reverts commit 3cf2954341 ("MIPS:
BCM63xx: Provide a plat_post_dma_flush hook") since this commit was
found to prevent BCM6358 (early BMIPS4350 cores) and some BCM6368
(BMIPS4380 cores) from booting reliably.
Alvaro was able to track this down to an issue specifically located to
devices that use the second thread (TP1) when booting. Since BCM63xx did
not have a need for plat_post_dma_flush() hook before, let's just keep
things the way they were.

The show_stack() function deals exclusively with kernel contexts, but if
it gets called in user context with EVA enabled, show_stacktrace() will
attempt to access the stack using EVA accesses, which will either read
other user mapped data, or more likely cause an exception which will be
handled by __get_user().
This is easily reproduced using SysRq t to show all task states, which
results in the following stack dump output:
Stack : (Bad stack address)
Fix by setting the current user access mode to kernel around the call to
show_stacktrace(). This causes __get_user() to use normal loads to read
the kernel stack.
Now we get the correct output, like this:
Stack : 00000000 80168960 00000000 004a0000 00000000 00000000 8060016c 1f3abd0c

If a machine check exception is raised in kernel mode, user context,
with EVA enabled, then the do_mcheck handler will attempt to read the
code around the EPC using EVA load instructions, i.e. as if the reads
were from user mode. This will either read random user data if the
process has anything mapped at the same address, or it will cause an
exception which is handled by __get_user, resulting in this output:
Code: (Bad address in epc)
Fix by setting the current user access mode to kernel if the saved
register context indicates the exception was taken in kernel mode. This
causes __get_user to use normal loads to read the kernel code.

The majority of SMP platforms handle their IPIs through do_IRQ()
which calls irq_{enter/exit}(). When a call function IPI is received,
smp_call_function_interrupt() is called which also calls
irq_{enter,exit}(), meaning irq_count is raised twice.
When tick broadcasting is used (which is implemented via a call
function IPI), this incorrectly causes all CPU idle time on the core
receiving broadcast ticks to be accounted as time spent servicing
IRQs, as account_process_tick() will account as such if irq_count is
greater than 1. This results in 100% CPU usage being reported on a
core which receives its ticks via broadcast.
This patch removes the SMP smp_call_function_interrupt() wrapper which
calls irq_{enter,exit}(). Platforms which handle their IPIs through
do_IRQ() now call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() directly to
avoid incrementing irq_count a second time. Platforms which don't
(loongson, sgi-ip27, sibyte) call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt()
wrapped in irq_{enter,exit}().

Execution of break instruction, trap instructions, emulation of unaligned
loads or floating point instructions - anything that tries to read the
instruction's opcode from userspace - needs read access to a page.
RIXI (Read Inhibit / Execute Inhibit) support however allows the creation of
pags that are executable but not readable. On such a mapping the attempted
load of the opcode by the kernel is going to cause an endless loop of
page faults.
The quick workaround for this is to disable the combinations that the kernel
currently isn't able to handle which are executable mappings.

On Malta, since commit a87ea88d8f ("MIPS: Malta: initialise the RTC at
boot"), the RTC is reinitialised and forced into binary coded decimal
(BCD) mode during init, even if the bootloader has already initialised
it, and may even have already put it into binary mode (as YAMON does).
This corrupts the current time, can result in the RTC seconds being an
invalid BCD (e.g. 0x1a..0x1f) for up to 6 seconds, as well as confusing
YAMON for a while after reset, enough for it to report timeouts when
attempting to load from TFTP (it actually uses the RTC in that code).
Therefore only initialise the RTC to the extent that is necessary so
that Linux avoids interfering with the bootloader setup, while also
allowing it to estimate the CPU frequency without hanging, without a
bootloader necessarily having done anything with the RTC (for example
when the kernel is loaded via EJTAG).
The divider control is configured for a 32KHZ reference clock if
necessary, and the SET bit of the RTC_CONTROL register is cleared if
necessary without changing any other bits (this bit will be set when
coming out of reset if the battery has been disconnected).

Merge tag 'efi-urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi into x86/urgent
Pull EFI fixes from Matt Fleming:
* Fix an EFI boot issue preventing a Parallels virtual machine from
booting because the upper 32-bits of the EFI memmap pointer were
being discarded in setup_e820(). (Dmitry Skorodumov)
* Validate that the "efi" kernel parameter gets used with an argument,
otherwise we will oops. (Ricardo Neri)
