2018-11-11drivers/misc/sgi-gru: fix Spectre v1 vulnerabilityGustavo A. R. Silva
req.gid can be indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. This issue was detected with the help of Smatch: vers/misc/sgi-gru/grukdump.c:200 gru_dump_chiplet_request() warn: potential spectre issue 'gru_base' [w] Fix this by sanitizing req.gid before calling macro GID_TO_GRU, which uses it to index gru_base. Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].

2015-09-20drivers/misc/sgi-gru: remove always false conditionSudip Mukherjee
The member gid in struct gru_dump_chiplet_state_req is unsigned int. So it can never be less than 0. Signed-off-by: Sudip Mukherjee <sudip@vectorindia.org> Acked-by: Dimitri Sivanich <sivanich@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2015-09-20drivers/misc/sgi-gru: add return on errorSudip Mukherjee
If the buffer is too small then return the error and in the process remove the variables which became unused. Signed-off-by: Sudip Mukherjee <sudip@vectorindia.org> Acked-by: Dimitri Sivanich <sivanich@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2014-04-07drivers/misc/sgi-gru/grukdump.c: cleanup gru_dump_context() a littleDan Carpenter
"ret" is zero here so we can remove the "!ret" part of the condition. "uhdr" is alread a __user pointer so we can remove the cast.

2014-02-10drivers/misc/sgi-gru/grukdump.c: unlocking should be conditional in ↵Dan Carpenter
gru_dump_context() I was reviewing this and noticed that unlocking should be conditional on the error path. I've changed it to unlock and return directly since we only do it once and it seems unlikely to change in the near future.

2009-12-16gru: add debug option for cache flushingJack Steiner
Add a debug option to the SGI GRU driver for flushing GRU cache lines from memory. In theory this is not needed but it is useful for debugging. This has no use by end users.

Minor fixes to the SGI GRU grudump facility: - fix address where user data is written - add gru number to data passed to user - indicate if context is locked Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2009-06-18gru: change resource assignment for kernel threadsJack Steiner
Change the way GRU resources are assigned for kernel threads. GRU contexts for kernel threads are now allocated on demand and can be stolen by user processes when idle. This allows MPI jobs to use ALL of the GRU resources when the kernel is not using them.
