git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull watchddog clean-up and fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "The watchdog (hard/softlockup detector) code is pretty much broken in its current state. The patch series addresses this by removing all duct tape and refactoring it into a workable state. The reasons why I ask for inclusion that late in the cycle are: 1) The code causes lockdep splats vs. hotplug locking which get reported over and over. Unfortunately there is no easy fix. 2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken 3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the solution would be easy to backport. 4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu() surprise which we discussed recently. Changes vs. V1: - Addressed your review points - Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late - Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point in the series. Now they match what they do in the end. - Fixed a 'unused variable' warning, which got not detected by the intel robot. I triggered it when trying all possible related config combinations manually. Randconfig testing seems not random enough. The changes have been tested by and reviewed by Don Zickus and tested and acked by Micheal Ellerman for powerpc" * 'core-watchdog-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (36 commits) watchdog/core: Put softlockup_threads_initialized under ifdef guard watchdog/core: Rename some softlockup_* functions powerpc/watchdog: Make use of watchdog_nmi_probe() watchdog/core, powerpc: Lock cpus across reconfiguration watchdog/core, powerpc: Replace watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Fix spelling mistake: "permanetely" -> "permanently" watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Cure UP damage watchdog/hardlockup: Clean up hotplug locking mess watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Simplify deferred event destroy watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Use new perf CPU enable mechanism watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Implement CPU enable replacement watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Implement init time detection of perf watchdog/hardlockup/perf: Implement init time perf validation watchdog/core: Get rid of the racy update loop watchdog/core, powerpc: Make watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() two stage watchdog/sysctl: Clean up sysctl variable name space watchdog/sysctl: Get rid of the #ifdeffery watchdog/core: Clean up header mess watchdog/core: Further simplify sysctl handling watchdog/core: Get rid of the thread teardown/setup dance ...
2017-10-04powerpc/watchdog: Make use of watchdog_nmi_probe()Thomas Gleixner
The rework of the core hotplug code triggers the WARN_ON in start_wd_cpu() on powerpc because it is called multiple times for the boot CPU. The first call is via: start_wd_on_cpu+0x80/0x2f0 watchdog_nmi_reconfigure+0x124/0x170 softlockup_reconfigure_threads+0x110/0x130 lockup_detector_init+0xbc/0xe0 kernel_init_freeable+0x18c/0x37c kernel_init+0x2c/0x160 ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xbc And then again via the CPU hotplug registration: start_wd_on_cpu+0x80/0x2f0 cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x194/0x620 cpuhp_thread_fun+0x7c/0x1b0 smpboot_thread_fn+0x290/0x2a0 kthread+0x168/0x1b0 ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xbc This can be avoided by setting up the cpu hotplug state with nocalls and move the initialization to the watchdog_nmi_probe() function. That initializes the hotplug callbacks without invoking the callback and the following core initialization function then configures the watchdog for the online CPUs (in this case CPU0) via softlockup_reconfigure_threads().

2017-10-04watchdog/core, powerpc: Replace watchdog_nmi_reconfigure()Thomas Gleixner
The recent cleanup of the watchdog code split watchdog_nmi_reconfigure() into two stages. One to stop the NMI and one to restart it after reconfiguration. That was done by adding a boolean 'run' argument to the code, which is functionally correct but not necessarily a piece of art. Replace it by two explicit functions: watchdog_nmi_stop() and watchdog_nmi_start().

2017-10-03rapidio: remove global irq spinlocks from the subsystemIoan Nicu
Locking of config and doorbell operations should be done only if the underlying hardware requires it. This patch removes the global spinlocks from the rapidio subsystem and moves them to the mport drivers (fsl_rio and tsi721), only to the necessary places. For example, local config space read and write operations (lcread/lcwrite) are atomic in all existing drivers, so there should be no need for locking, while the cread/cwrite operations which generate maintenance transactions need to be synchronized with a lock. Later, each driver could chose to use a per-port lock instead of a global one, or even more granular locking.

2017-09-22KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Check for updated HDSISR on P9 HDSI exceptionMichael Neuling
On POWER9 DD2.1 and below, sometimes on a Hypervisor Data Storage Interrupt (HDSI) the HDSISR is not be updated at all. To work around this we put a canary value into the HDSISR before returning to a guest and then check for this canary when we take a HDSI. If we find the canary on a HDSI, we know the hardware didn't update the HDSISR. In this case we return to the guest to retake the HDSI which should correctly update the HDSISR the second time HDSI entry. After talking to Paulus we've applied this workaround to all POWER9 CPUs. The workaround of returning to the guest shouldn't ever be triggered on well behaving CPU. The extra instructions should have negligible performance impact.

2017-09-21powerpc/pseries: Fix "OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /cpus" during DLPARTyrel Datwyler
Commit 215ee763f8cb ("powerpc: pseries: remove dlpar_attach_node dependency on full path") reworked dlpar_attach_node() to no longer look up the parent node "/cpus", but instead to have the parent node passed by the caller in the function parameter list. As a result dlpar_attach_node() is no longer responsible for freeing the reference to the parent node. However, commit 215ee763f8cb failed to remove the of_node_put(parent) call in dlpar_attach_node(), or to take into account that the reference to the parent in the caller dlpar_cpu_add() needs to be held until after dlpar_attach_node() returns. As a result doing repeated cpu add/remove dlpar operations will eventually result in the following error: OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /cpus CPU: 0 PID: 10896 Comm: drmgr Not tainted 4.13.0-autotest #1 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x15c/0x1f8 (unreliable) of_node_release+0x1a4/0x1c0 kobject_put+0x1a8/0x310 kobject_del+0xbc/0xf0 __of_detach_node_sysfs+0x144/0x210 of_detach_node+0xf0/0x180 dlpar_detach_node+0xc4/0x120 dlpar_cpu_remove+0x280/0x560 dlpar_cpu_release+0xbc/0x1b0 arch_cpu_release+0x6c/0xb0 cpu_release_store+0xa0/0x100 dev_attr_store+0x68/0xa0 sysfs_kf_write+0xa8/0xf0 kernfs_fop_write+0x2cc/0x400 __vfs_write+0x5c/0x340 vfs_write+0x1a8/0x3d0 SyS_write+0xa8/0x1a0 system_call+0x58/0x6c Fix the issue by removing the of_node_put(parent) call from dlpar_attach_node(), and ensuring that the reference to the parent node is properly held and released by the caller dlpar_cpu_add().

2017-09-20powerpc/kprobes: Update optprobes to use emulate_update_regs()Naveen N. Rao
Optprobes depended on an updated regs->nip from analyse_instr() to identify the location to branch back from the optprobes trampoline. However, since commit 3cdfcbfd32b9d ("powerpc: Change analyse_instr so it doesn't modify *regs"), analyse_instr() doesn't update the registers anymore. Due to this, we end up branching back from the optprobes trampoline to the same branch into the trampoline resulting in a loop. Fix this by calling out to emulate_update_regs() before using the nip. Additionally, explicitly compare the return value from analyse_instr() to 1, rather than just checking for !0 so as to guard against any future changes to analyse_instr() that may result in -1 being returned in more scenarios.

2017-09-20powerpc/powernv: Clear LPCR[PECE1] via stop-api only for deep state offlineGautham R. Shenoy
Commit 24be85a23d1f ("powerpc/powernv: Clear PECE1 in LPCR via stop-api only on Hotplug") clears the PECE1 bit of the LPCR via stop-api during CPU-Hotplug to prevent wakeup due to a decrementer on an offlined CPU which is in a deep stop state. In the case where the stop-api support is found to be lacking, the commit 785a12afdb4a ("powerpc/powernv/idle: Disable LOSE_FULL_CONTEXT states when stop-api fails") disables deep states that lose hypervisor context. Thus in this case, the offlined CPU will be put to some shallow idle state. However, we currently unconditionally clear the PECE1 in LPCR via stop-api during CPU-Hotplug even when deep states are disabled due to stop-api failure. Fix this by clearing PECE1 of LPCR via stop-api during CPU-Hotplug *only* when the offlined CPU will be put to a deep state that loses hypervisor context.

2017-09-20powerpc/tm: Flush TM only if CPU has TM featureGustavo Romero
Commit cd63f3c ("powerpc/tm: Fix saving of TM SPRs in core dump") added code to access TM SPRs in flush_tmregs_to_thread(). However flush_tmregs_to_thread() does not check if TM feature is available on CPU before trying to access TM SPRs in order to copy live state to thread structures. flush_tmregs_to_thread() is indeed guarded by CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM but it might be the case that kernel was compiled with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM enabled and ran on a CPU without TM feature available, thus rendering the execution of TM instructions that are treated by the CPU as illegal instructions. The fix is just to add proper checking in flush_tmregs_to_thread() if CPU has the TM feature before accessing any TM-specific resource, returning immediately if TM is no available on the CPU. Adding that checking in flush_tmregs_to_thread() instead of in places where it is called, like in vsr_get() and vsr_set(), is better because avoids the same problem cropping up elsewhere.

2017-09-13mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flagMichal Hocko
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is no good answer for those questions. The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits. I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning. I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention. I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and only then add users with proper justification. This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term allocations.

Then, when the host next accesses the vmemmap region, it gets a page fault. Commit a25bd72badfa ("powerpc/mm/radix: Workaround prefetch issue with KVM", 2017-07-24) modified the guest exit code so that it now only clears out the SLB for hash guest. The code tests the radix flag and puts the result in a non-volatile CR field, CR2, and later branches based on CR2. Unfortunately, the kvmppc_save_tm function, which gets called between those two points, modifies all the user-visible registers in the case where the guest was in transactional or suspended state, except for a few which it restores (namely r1, r2, r9 and r13). Thus the hash/radix indication in CR2 gets corrupted. This fixes the problem by re-doing the comparison just before the result is needed. For good measure, this also adds comments next to the call sites of kvmppc_save_tm and kvmppc_restore_tm pointing out that non-volatile register state will be lost.

2017-09-12KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Hold kvm->lock around call to kvmppc_update_lpcrPaul Mackerras
Commit 468808bd35c4 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Set process table for HPT guests on POWER9", 2017-01-30) added a call to kvmppc_update_lpcr() which doesn't hold the kvm->lock mutex around the call, as required. This adds the lock/unlock pair, and for good measure, includes the kvmppc_setup_partition_table() call in the locked region, since it is altering global state of the VM. This error appears not to have any fatal consequences for the host; the consequences would be that the VCPUs could end up running with different LPCR values, or an update to the LPCR value by userspace using the one_reg interface could get overwritten, or the update done by kvmhv_configure_mmu() could get overwritten.

I delayed it so that a minor conflict resolution with the mips tree could spend a little time in linux-next before I sent this pull request. This includes two long delayed user namespace changes from Kirill Tkhai. It also includes a very useful change from Serge Hallyn that allows the security capability attribute to be used inside of user namespaces. The practical effect of this is people can now untar tarballs and install rpms in user namespaces. It had been suggested to generalize this and encode some of the namespace information information in the xattr name. Upon close inspection that makes the things that should be hard easy and the things that should be easy more expensive. Then there is my bugfix/cleanup for signal injection that removes the magic encoding of the siginfo union member from the kernel internal si_code. The mips folks reported the case where I had used FPE_FIXME me is impossible so I have remove FPE_FIXME from mips, while at the same time including a return statement in that case to keep gcc from complaining about unitialized variables. I almost finished the work to get make copy_siginfo_to_user a trivial copy to user.

First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".

This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems with very sparse NUMA layouts. - STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32. - A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that pairs of cores may share an L2 cache. - Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX compression accelerator. - Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults. - Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt controller.
