f39d47ff81 perf: Fix double start/stop in x86_pmu_start()
The following patch fixes a bug introduced by the following
commit:

        e050e3f0a7 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")

The patch caused the following warning to pop up depending on
the sampling frequency adjustments:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c:995 x86_pmu_start+0x79/0xd4()

It was caused by the following call sequence:

perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.part() {
     stop()
     if (delta > 0) {
          perf_adjust_period() {
              if (period > 8*...) {
                  stop()
                  ...
                  start()
              }
          }
      }
      start()
}

Which caused a double start and a double stop, thus triggering
the assert in x86_pmu_start().

The patch fixes the problem by avoiding the double calls. We
pass a new argument to perf_adjust_period() to indicate whether
or not the event is already stopped. We can't just remove the
start/stop from that function because it's called from
__perf_event_overflow where the event needs to be reloaded via a
stop/start back-toback call.

The patch reintroduces the assertion in x86_pmu_start() which
was removed by commit:

	84f2b9b ("perf: Remove deprecated WARN_ON_ONCE()")

In this second version, we've added calls to disable/enable PMU
during unthrottling or frequency adjustment based on bug report
of spurious NMI interrupts from Eric Dumazet.

84f2b9b2ed perf: Remove deprecated WARN_ON_ONCE()
With the new throttling/unthrottling code introduced with
commit:

  e050e3f0a7 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")

we occasionally hit two WARN_ON_ONCE() checks in:

  - intel_pmu_pebs_enable()
  - intel_pmu_lbr_enable()
  - x86_pmu_start()

The assertions are no longer problematic. There is a valid
path where they can trigger but it is harmless.

The assertion can be triggered with:

  $ perf record -e instructions:pp ....

Leading to paths:

  intel_pmu_pebs_enable
  intel_pmu_enable_event
  x86_perf_event_set_period
  x86_pmu_start
  perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context
  perf_event_task_tick
  scheduler_tick

And:

  intel_pmu_lbr_enable
  intel_pmu_enable_event
  x86_perf_event_set_period
  x86_pmu_start
  perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.
  perf_event_task_tick
  scheduler_tick

cpuc->enabled is always on because when we get to
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context() the PMU is not totally
disabled. Furthermore when we need to adjust a period,
we only stop the event we need to change and not the
entire PMU. Thus, when we re-enable, cpuc->enabled is
already set. Note that when we stop the event, both
pebs and lbr are stopped if necessary (and possible).

c2226fc9e8 KVM: x86: fix missing checks in syscall emulation
On hosts without this patch, 32bit guests will crash (and 64bit guests
may behave in a wrong way) for example by simply executing following
nasm-demo-application:

    [bits 32]
    global _start
    SECTION .text
    _start: syscall

(I tested it with winxp and linux - both always crashed)

    Disassembly of section .text:

    00000000 <_start>:
       0:   0f 05                   syscall

The reason seems a missing "invalid opcode"-trap (int6) for the
syscall opcode "0f05", which is not available on Intel CPUs
within non-longmodes, as also on some AMD CPUs within legacy-mode.
(depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid)

Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding
syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain
NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple
faults and finally crashs.

Depending on the architecture (AMD or Intel) pretended by
guests, various checks according to vendor's documentation
are implemented to overcome the current issue and behave
like the CPUs physical counterparts.

e6d36a653b x86/reboot: Remove VersaLogic Menlow reboot quirk
This commit removes the reboot quirk originally added by commit
e19e074 ("x86: Fix reboot problem on VersaLogic Menlow boards").

Testing with a VersaLogic Ocelot (VL-EPMs-21a rev 1.00 w/ BIOS
6.5.102) revealed the following regarding the reboot hang
problem:

- v2.6.37 reboot=bios was needed.

- v2.6.38-rc1: behavior changed, reboot=acpi is needed,
  reboot=kbd and reboot=bios results in system hang.

- v2.6.38: VersaLogic patch (e19e074 "x86: Fix reboot problem on
  VersaLogic Menlow boards") was applied prior to v2.6.38-rc7.  This
  patch sets a quirk for VersaLogic Menlow boards that forces the use
  of reboot=bios, which doesn't work anymore.

- v3.2: It seems that commit 660e34c ("x86: Reorder reboot method
  preferences") changed the default reboot method to acpi prior to
  v3.0-rc1, which means the default behavior is appropriate for the
  Ocelot.  No VersaLogic quirk is required.

The Ocelot board used for testing can successfully reboot w/out
having to pass any reboot= arguments for all 3 current versions
of the BIOS.

b0f4c4b32c bugs, x86: Fix printk levels for panic, softlockups and stack dumps
rsyslog will display KERN_EMERG messages on a connected
terminal.  However, these messages are useless/undecipherable
for a general user.

For example, after a softlockup we get:

 Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 14:18:06 ...
 kernel:Stack:

 Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 14:18:06 ...
 kernel:Call Trace:

 Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 14:18:06 ...
 kernel:Code: ff ff a8 08 75 25 31 d2 48 8d 86 38 e0 ff ff 48 89
 d1 0f 01 c8 0f ae f0 48 8b 86 38 e0 ff ff a8 08 75 08 b1 01 4c 89 e0 0f 01 c9 <e8> ea 69 dd ff 4c 29 e8 48 89 c7 e8 0f bc da ff 49 89 c4 49 89

This happens because the printk levels for these messages are
incorrect. Only an informational message should be displayed on
a terminal.

I modified the printk levels for various messages in the kernel
and tested the output by using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c kernel
modules (ie, softlockups, panics, hard lockups, etc.) and
confirmed that the console output was still the same and that
the output to the terminals was correct.

For example, in the case of a softlockup we now see the much
more informative:

 Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 10:18:06 ...
 BUG: soft lockup - CPU4 stuck for 60s!

instead of the above confusing messages.

AFAICT, the messages no longer have to be KERN_EMERG.  In the
most important case of a panic we set console_verbose().  As for
the other less severe cases the correct data is output to the
console and /var/log/messages.

Successfully tested by me using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c module.

fc395b9291 x86: Properly parenthesize cmpxchg() macro arguments
Quite oddly, all of the arguments passed through from the top
level macros to the second level which didn't need parentheses
had them, while the only expression (involving a parameter)
needing them didn't.

Very recently I got bitten by the lack thereof when using
something like "array + index" for the first operand, with
"array" being an array more narrow than int.

5b68edc91c x86/microcode_amd: Add support for CPU family specific container files
We've decided to provide CPU family specific container files
(starting with CPU family 15h). E.g. for family 15h we have to
load microcode_amd_fam15h.bin instead of microcode_amd.bin

Rationale is that starting with family 15h patch size is larger
than 2KB which was hard coded as maximum patch size in various
microcode loaders (not just Linux).

Container files which include patches larger than 2KB cause
different kinds of trouble with such old patch loaders. Thus we
have to ensure that the default container file provides only
patches with size less than 2KB.

7a7546b377 x86: xen: size struct xen_spinlock to always fit in arch_spinlock_t
If NR_CPUS < 256 then arch_spinlock_t is only 16 bits wide but struct
xen_spinlock is 32 bits.  When a spin lock is contended and
xl->spinners is modified the two bytes immediately after the spin lock
would be corrupted.

This is a regression caused by 84eb950db1
(x86, ticketlock: Clean up types and accessors) which reduced the size
of arch_spinlock_t.

Fix this by making xl->spinners a u8 if NR_CPUS < 256.  A
BUILD_BUG_ON() is also added to check the sizes of the two structures
are compatible.

In many cases this was not noticable as there would often be padding
bytes after the lock (e.g., if any of CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK,
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, or CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC were enabled).

The bnx2 driver is affected. In struct bnx2, phy_lock and
indirect_lock may have no padding after them.  Contention on phy_lock
would corrupt indirect_lock making it appear locked and the driver
would deadlock.

2) Must 'generate' the full function prologue/epilogue at pass=0,
   or else we can stop too early in pass=1 if the proglen doesnt change.
   (if the increase of prologue/epilogue equals decrease of all
    instructions length because some jumps are converted to near jumps)

3) Change the wrong length detection at the end of code generation to

68f30fbee1 x86, tsc: Fix SMI induced variation in quick_pit_calibrate()
pit_expect_msb() returns success wrongly in the below SMI scenario:

a. pit_verify_msb() has not yet seen the MSB transition.

b. we are close to the MSB transition though and got a SMI immediately after
   returning from pit_verify_msb() which didn't see the MSB transition. PIT MSB
   transition has happened somewhere during SMI execution.

c. returned from SMI and we noted down the 'tsc', saw the pit MSB change now and
   exited the loop to calculate 'deltatsc'. Instead of noting the TSC at the MSB
   transition, we are way off because of the SMI.  And as the SMI happened
   between the pit_verify_msb() and before the 'tsc' is recorded in the
   for loop, 'delattsc' (d1/d2 in quick_pit_calibrate()) will be small and
   quick_pit_calibrate() will not notice this error.

Depending on whether SMI disturbance happens while computing d1 or d2, we will
see the TSC calibrated value smaller or bigger than the expected value. As a
result, in a cluster we were seeing a variation of approximately +/- 20MHz in
the calibrated values, resulting in NTP failures.

  [ As far as the SMI source is concerned, this is a periodic SMI that gets
    disabled after ACPI is enabled by the OS. But the TSC calibration happens
    before the ACPI is enabled. ]

To address this, change pit_expect_msb() so that

 - the 'tsc' is the TSC in between the two reads that read the MSB
change from the PIT (same as before)

 - the 'delta' is the difference in TSC from *before* the MSB changed
to *after* the MSB changed.

Now the delta is twice as big as before (it covers four PIT accesses,
roughly 4us) and quick_pit_calibrate() will loop a bit longer to get
the calibrated value with in the 500ppm precision. As the delta (d1/d2)
covers four PIT accesses, actual calibrated result might be closer to
250ppm precision.

As the loop now takes longer to stabilize, double MAX_QUICK_PIT_MS to 50.

SMI disturbance will showup as much larger delta's and the loop will take
longer than usual for the result to be with in the accepted precision. Or will
fallback to slow PIT calibration if it takes more than 50msec.

Also while we are at this, remove the calibration correction that aims to
get the result to the middle of the error bars. We really don't know which
direction to correct into, so remove it.

f031cd2556 audit: ia32entry.S sign extend error codes when calling 64 bit code
In the ia32entry syscall exit audit fastpath we have assembly code which calls
__audit_syscall_exit directly.  This code was, however, zeroes the upper 32
bits of the return code.  It then proceeded to call code which expects longs
to be 64bits long.  In order to handle code which expects longs to be 64bit we
sign extend the return code if that code is an error.  Thus the
__audit_syscall_exit function can correctly handle using the values in
snprintf("%ld").  This fixes the regression introduced in 5cbf1565f2.

Old record:
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1306197182.256:281): arch=40000003 syscall=192 success=no exit=4294967283

d7e7528bcd Audit: push audit success and retcode into arch ptrace.h
The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to
supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was.
Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things
by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating
success or failure.  This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid
pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall.  The fix is to fix the
layering foolishness.  We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it
in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to
determine if the syscall was a success or failure.  We also define a generic
is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the
value is < -MAX_ERRNO.  This works for arches like x86 which do not use a
separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure.

We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines
instead of macros.  The reason is because the audit function must take a void*
for the regs.  (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct
pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs).  Since the audit
function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the
arch correct structure to dereference it.

The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we
change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure.
THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it
makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs.

In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old
audit code as the return value.  But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro
regs_return_value() as regs[3].  I have no idea which one is correct, but this
patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3].

For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the
regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3].  regs->gprs[3] is
always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative
before calling the audit code when appropriate.

c5d35d399e x86/UV2: Work around BAU bug
This patch implements a workaround for a UV2 hardware bug.
The bug is a non-atomic update of a memory-mapped register. When
hardware message delivery and software message acknowledge occur
simultaneously the pending message acknowledge for the arriving
message may be lost.  This causes the sender's message status to
stay busy.

Part of the workaround is to not acknowledge a completed message
until it is verified that no other message is actually using the
resource that is mistakenly recorded in the completed message.

Part of the workaround is to test for long elapsed time in such
a busy condition, then handle it by using a spare sending
descriptor. The stay-busy condition is eventually timed out by
hardware, and then the original sending descriptor can be
re-used. Most of that logic change is in keeping track of the
current descriptor and the state of the spares.

The occurrences of the workaround are added to the BAU
statistics.

e032d80774 mce: fix warning messages about static struct mce_device
When suspending, there was a large list of warnings going something like:

	Device 'machinecheck1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed

This patch turns the static mce_devices into dynamically allocated, and
properly frees them when they are removed from the system.  It solves
the warning messages on my laptop here.

f10448689d x86: Get rid of dubious one-bit signed bitfield
This very noisy sparse warning appears on almost every file in
the kernel:

  CHECK   init/main.c
  arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:43:55: error: dubious one-bit
  signed bitfield arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:44:46: error:
  dubious one-bit signed bitfield

Sparse is right and this patch changes sig_on_uaccess_error and
uaccess_err flags to unsigned type and thus fixes the warning.
