Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of fixes for x86:
- Prevent X2APIC ID 0xFFFFFFFF from being treated as valid, which
causes the possible CPU count to be wrong.
- Prevent 32bit truncation in calc_hpet_ref() which causes the TSC
calibration to fail
- Fix the page table setup for temporary text mappings in the resume
code which causes resume failures
- Make the page table dump code handle HIGHPTE correctly instead of
oopsing
- Support for topologies where NUMA nodes share an LLC to prevent a
invalid topology warning and further malfunction on such systems.
- Remove the now unused pci-nommu code
- Remove stale function declarations"

Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A larger set of updates for perf.
Kernel:
- Handle the SBOX uncore monitoring correctly on Broadwell CPUs which
do not have SBOX.
- Store context switch out type in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE]. The
percentage of preempting and non-preempting context switches help
understanding the nature of workloads (CPU or IO bound) that are
running on a machine. This adds the kernel facility and userspace
changes needed to show this information in 'perf script' and 'perf
report -D' (Alexey Budankov)
- Remove a WARN_ON() in the trace/kprobes code which is pointless
because the return error code is already telling the caller what's
wrong.
- Revert a fugly workaround for clang BPF targets.
- Fix sample_max_stack maximum check and do not proceed when an error
has been detect, return them to avoid misidentifying errors (Jiri
Olsa)
- Add SPDX idenitifiers and get rid of GPL boilderplate.
Tools:
- Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.17-rc1 (Ingo Molnar)
- Support MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, noticed when updating the
tools/include/ copies (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add '\n' at the end of parse-options error messages (Ravi Bangoria)
- Add s390 support for detailed/verbose PMU event description (Thomas
Richter)
- perf annotate fixes and improvements:
* Allow showing offsets in more than just jump targets, use the
new 'O' hotkey in the TUI, config ~/.perfconfig
annotate.offset_level for it and for --stdio2 (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
* Use the resolved variable names from objdump disassembled lines
to make them more compact, just like was already done for some
instructions, like "mov", this eventually will be done more
generally, but lets now add some more to the existing mechanism
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- perf record fixes:
* Change warning for missing topology sysfs entry to debug, as not
all architectures have those files, s390 being one of those
(Thomas Richter)
* Remove old error messages about things that unlikely to be the
root cause in modern systems (Andi Kleen)
- perf sched fixes:
* Fix -g/--call-graph documentation (Takuya Yamamoto)
- perf stat:
* Enable 1ms interval for printing event counters values in
(Alexey Budankov)
- perf test fixes:
* Run dwarf unwind on arm32 (Kim Phillips)
* Remove unused ptrace.h include from LLVM test, sidesteping older
clang's lack of support for some asm constructs (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
* Fixup BPF test using epoll_pwait syscall function probe, to cope
with the syscall routines renames performed in this development
cycle (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- perf version fixes:
* Do not print info about HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT in 'perf version
--build-options' when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT is true, as
libaudit won't be used in that case, print info about
syscall_table support instead (Jin Yao)
- Build system fixes:
* Use HAVE_..._SUPPORT used consistently (Jin Yao)
* Restore READ_ONCE() C++ compatibility in tools/include (Mark
Rutland)

Chun-Yi reported a kernel warning message below:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at ../mm/early_ioremap.c:182 early_iounmap+0x4f/0x12c()
early_iounmap(ffffffffff200180, 00000118) [0] size not consistent 00000120
The problem is x86 kexec_file_load adds extra alignment to the efi
memmap: in bzImage64_load():
efi_map_sz = efi_get_runtime_map_size();
efi_map_sz = ALIGN(efi_map_sz, 16);
And __efi_memmap_init maps with the size including the alignment bytes
but efi_memmap_unmap use nr_maps * desc_size which does not include the
extra bytes.
The alignment in kexec code is only needed for the kexec buffer internal
use Actually kexec should pass exact size of the efi memmap to 2nd
kernel.

SBOX on some Broadwell CPUs is broken because it's enabled unconditionally
despite the fact that there are no SBOXes available.
Check the Power Control Unit CAPID4 register to determine the number of
available SBOXes on the particular CPU before trying to enable them. If
there are none, nullify the SBOX descriptor so it isn't tried to be
initialized.

On a system with 4-level page-tables there is no p4d, so the pud in the pgd
should be mapped. The old code before commit fb43d6cb91ef already did that.
The change from above commit causes an invalid page-table which causes
undefined behavior. In one report it caused triple faults.
Fix it by changing the p4d back to pud.

The walk_pte_level() function just uses __va to get the virtual address of
the PTE page, but that breaks when the PTE page is not in the direct
mapping with HIGHPTE=y.
The result is an unhandled kernel paging request at some random address
when accessing the current_kernel or current_user file.
Use the correct API to access PTE pages.

Intel's Skylake Server CPUs have a different LLC topology than previous
generations. When in Sub-NUMA-Clustering (SNC) mode, the package is divided
into two "slices", each containing half the cores, half the LLC, and one
memory controller and each slice is enumerated to Linux as a NUMA
node. This is similar to how the cores and LLC were arranged for the
Cluster-On-Die (CoD) feature.
CoD allowed the same cache line to be present in each half of the LLC.
But, with SNC, each line is only ever present in *one* slice. This means
that the portion of the LLC *available* to a CPU depends on the data being
accessed:
Remote socket: entire package LLC is shared
Local socket->local slice: data goes into local slice LLC
Local socket->remote slice: data goes into remote-slice LLC. Slightly
higher latency than local slice LLC.
The biggest implication from this is that a process accessing all
NUMA-local memory only sees half the LLC capacity.
The CPU describes its cache hierarchy with the CPUID instruction. One of
the CPUID leaves enumerates the "logical processors sharing this
cache". This information is used for scheduling decisions so that tasks
move more freely between CPUs sharing the cache.
But, the CPUID for the SNC configuration discussed above enumerates the LLC
as being shared by the entire package. This is not 100% precise because the
entire cache is not usable by all accesses. But, it *is* the way the
hardware enumerates itself, and this is not likely to change.
The userspace visible impact of all the above is that the sysfs info
reports the entire LLC as being available to the entire package. As noted
above, this is not true for local socket accesses. This patch does not
correct the sysfs info. It is the same, pre and post patch.
The current code emits the following warning:
sched: CPU #3's llc-sibling CPU #0 is not on the same node! [node: 1 != 0]. Ignoring dependency.
The warning is coming from the topology_sane() check in smpboot.c because
the topology is not matching the expectations of the model for obvious
reasons.
To fix this, add a vendor and model specific check to never call
topology_sane() for these systems. Also, just like "Cluster-on-Die" disable
the "coregroup" sched_domain_topology_level and use NUMA information from
the SRAT alone.
This is OK at least on the hardware we are immediately concerned about
because the LLC sharing happens at both the slice and at the package level,
which are also NUMA boundaries.

RongQing reported that there are some X2APIC id 0xffffffff in his machine's
ACPI MADT table, which makes the number of possible CPU inaccurate.
The reason is that the ACPI X2APIC parser has no sanity check for APIC ID
0xffffffff, which is an invalid id in all APIC types. See "Intel® 64
Architecture x2APIC Specification", Chapter 2.4.1.
Add a sanity check to acpi_parse_x2apic() which ignores the invalid id.

The TSC calibration code uses HPET as reference. The conversion normalizes
the delta of two HPET timestamps:
hpetref = ((tshpet1 - tshpet2) * HPET_PERIOD) / 1e6
and then divides the normalized delta of the corresponding TSC timestamps
by the result to calulate the TSC frequency.
tscfreq = ((tstsc1 - tstsc2 ) * 1e6) / hpetref
This uses do_div() which takes an u32 as the divisor, which worked so far
because the HPET frequency was low enough that 'hpetref' never exceeded
32bit.
On Skylake machines the HPET frequency increased so 'hpetref' can exceed
32bit. do_div() truncates the divisor, which causes the calibration to
fail.
Use div64_u64() to avoid the problem.

The code to verify the new kernels sha digest is applicable for all
architectures. Move it to common code.
One problem is the string.c implementation on x86. Currently sha256
includes x86/boot/string.h which defines memcpy and memset to be gcc
builtins. By moving the sha256 implementation to common code and
changing the include to linux/string.h both functions are no longer
defined. Thus definitions have to be provided in x86/purgatory/string.c

For s390 new kernels are loaded to fixed addresses in memory before they
are booted. With the current code this is a problem as it assumes the
kernel will be loaded to an 'arbitrary' address. In particular,
kexec_locate_mem_hole searches for a large enough memory region and sets
the load address (kexec_bufer->mem) to it.
Luckily there is a simple workaround for this problem. By returning 1
in arch_kexec_walk_mem, kexec_locate_mem_hole is turned off. This
allows the architecture to set kbuf->mem by hand. While the trick works
fine for the kernel it does not for the purgatory as here the
architectures don't have access to its kexec_buffer.
Give architectures access to the purgatories kexec_buffer by changing
kexec_load_purgatory to take a pointer to it. With this change
architectures have access to the buffer and can edit it as they need.
A nice side effect of this change is that we can get rid of the
purgatory_info->purgatory_load_address field. As now the information
stored there can directly be accessed from kbuf->mem.

The current code uses the sh_offset field in purgatory_info->sechdrs to
store a pointer to the current load address of the section. Depending
whether the section will be loaded or not this is either a pointer into
purgatory_info->purgatory_buf or kexec_purgatory. This is not only a
violation of the ELF standard but also makes the code very hard to
understand as you cannot tell if the memory you are using is read-only
or not.
Remove this misuse and store the offset of the section in
pugaroty_info->purgatory_buf in sh_offset.

When the relocations are applied to the purgatory only the section the
relocations are applied to is writable. The other sections, i.e. the
symtab and .rel/.rela, are in read-only kexec_purgatory. Highlight this
by marking the corresponding variables as 'const'.
While at it also change the signatures of arch_kexec_apply_relocations* to
take section pointers instead of just the index of the relocation section.
This removes the second lookup and sanity check of the sections in arch
code.

The code guarded by CONFIG_X86_64 is necessary on some architectures
which have a dedicated kernel mapping outside of linear memory mapping.
(arm64 is among those.)
In this patch, an additional argument, kernel_map, is added to enable/
disable the code removing #ifdef.

While prepare_elf64_headers() in x86 looks pretty generic for other
architectures' use, it contains some code which tries to list crash
memory regions by walking through system resources, which is not always
architecture agnostic. To make this function more generic, the related
code should be purged.
In this patch, prepare_elf64_headers() simply scans crash_mem buffer
passed and add all the listed regions to elf header as a PT_LOAD
segment. So walk_system_ram_res(prepare_elf64_headers_callback) have
been moved forward before prepare_elf64_headers() where the callback,
prepare_elf64_headers_callback(), is now responsible for filling up
crash_mem buffer.
Meanwhile exclude_elf_header_ranges() used to be called every time in
this callback it is rather redundant and now called only once in
prepare_elf_headers() as well.

As arch_kexec_kernel_image_{probe,load}(),
arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() and arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig()
are almost duplicated among architectures, they can be commonalized with
an architecture-defined kexec_file_ops array. So let's factor them out.

Patch series "kexec_file, x86, powerpc: refactoring for other
architecutres", v2.
This is a preparatory patchset for adding kexec_file support on arm64.
It was originally included in a arm64 patch set[1], but Philipp is also
working on their kexec_file support on s390[2] and some changes are now
conflicting.
So these common parts were extracted and put into a separate patch set
for better integration. What's more, my original patch#4 was split into
a few small chunks for easier review after Dave's comment.
As such, the resulting code is basically identical with my original, and
the only *visible* differences are:
- renaming of _kexec_kernel_image_probe() and _kimage_file_post_load_cleanup()
- change one of types of arguments at prepare_elf64_headers()
Those, unfortunately, require a couple of trivial changes on the rest
(#1, #6 to #13) of my arm64 kexec_file patch set[1].
Patch #1 allows making a use of purgatory optional, particularly useful
for arm64.
Patch #2 commonalizes arch_kexec_kernel_{image_probe, image_load,
verify_sig}() and arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() across
architectures.
Patches #3-#7 are also intended to generalize parse_elf64_headers(),
along with exclude_mem_range(), to be made best re-use of.
[1] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2018-February/561182.html
[2] http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1802.1/02596.html
This patch (of 7):
On arm64, crash dump kernel's usable memory is protected by *unmapping*
it from kernel virtual space unlike other architectures where the region
is just made read-only. It is highly unlikely that the region is
accidentally corrupted and this observation rationalizes that digest
check code can also be dropped from purgatory. The resulting code is so
simple as it doesn't require a bit ugly re-linking/relocation stuff,
i.e. arch_kexec_apply_relocations_add().
Please see:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-December/545428.html
All that the purgatory does is to shuffle arguments and jump into a new
kernel, while we still need to have some space for a hash value
(purgatory_sha256_digest) which is never checked against.
As such, it doesn't make sense to have trampline code between old kernel
and new kernel on arm64.
This patch introduces a new configuration, ARCH_HAS_KEXEC_PURGATORY, and
allows related code to be compiled in only if necessary.

According to the sub-section titled 'VM-Execution Control Fields' in the
section titled 'Basic VM-Entry Checks' in Intel SDM vol. 3C, the following
vmentry check must be enforced:
If the 'virtualize APIC-accesses' VM-execution control is 1, the
APIC-access address must satisfy the following checks:
- Bits 11:0 of the address must be 0.
- The address should not set any bits beyond the processor's
physical-address width.
This patch adds the necessary check to conform to this rule. If the check
fails, we cause the L2 VMENTRY to fail which is what the associated unit
test (following patch) expects.

The pmd_set_huge() and pud_set_huge() functions are used from
the generic ioremap() code to establish large mappings where this
is possible.
But the generic ioremap() code does not check whether the
PMD/PUD entries are already populated with a non-leaf entry,
so that any page-table pages these entries point to will be
lost.
Further, on x86-32 with SHARED_KERNEL_PMD=0, this causes a
BUG_ON() in vmalloc_sync_one() when PMD entries are synced
from swapper_pg_dir to the current page-table. This happens
because the PMD entry from swapper_pg_dir was promoted to a
huge-page entry while the current PGD still contains the
non-leaf entry. Because both entries are present and point
to a different page, the BUG_ON() triggers.
This was actually triggered with pti-x32 enabled in a KVM
virtual machine by the graphics driver.
A real and better fix for that would be to improve the
page-table handling in the generic ioremap() code. But that is
out-of-scope for this patch-set and left for later work.

Global pages are bad for hardening because they potentially let an
exploit read the kernel image via a Meltdown-style attack which
makes it easier to find gadgets.
But, global pages are good for performance because they reduce TLB
misses when making user/kernel transitions, especially when PCIDs
are not available, such as on older hardware, or where a hypervisor
has disabled them for some reason.
This patch implements a basic, sane policy: If you have PCIDs, you
only map a minimal amount of kernel text global. If you do not have
PCIDs, you map all kernel text global.
This policy effectively makes PCIDs something that not only adds
performance but a little bit of hardening as well.
I ran a simple "lseek" microbenchmark[1] to test the benefit on
a modern Atom microserver. Most of the benefit comes from applying
the series before this patch ("entry only"), but there is still a
signifiant benefit from this patch.
No Global Lines (baseline ): 6077741 lseeks/sec

Summary:
In current kernels, with PTI enabled, no pages are marked Global. This
potentially increases TLB misses. But, the mechanism by which the Global
bit is set and cleared is rather haphazard. This patch makes the process
more explicit. In the end, it leaves us with Global entries in the page
tables for the areas truly shared by userspace and kernel and increases
TLB hit rates.
The place this patch really shines in on systems without PCIDs. In this
case, we are using an lseek microbenchmark[1] to see how a reasonably
non-trivial syscall behaves. Higher is better:
No Global pages (baseline): 6077741 lseeks/sec
88 Global Pages (this set): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%)
On a modern Skylake desktop with PCIDs, the benefits are tangible, but not
huge for a kernel compile (lower is better):
No Global pages (baseline): 186.951 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.35% )
28 Global pages (this set): 185.756 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.09% )
-1.195 seconds (-0.64%)
I also re-checked everything using the lseek1 test[1]:
No Global pages (baseline): 15783951 lseeks/sec
28 Global pages (this set): 16054688 lseeks/sec
+270737 lseeks/sec (+1.71%)
The effect is more visible, but still modest.
Details:
The kernel page tables are inherited from head_64.S which rudely marks
them as _PAGE_GLOBAL. For PTI, we have been relying on the grace of
$DEITY and some insane behavior in pageattr.c to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL.
This patch tries to do better.
First, stop filtering out "unsupported" bits from being cleared in the
pageattr code. It's fine to filter out *setting* these bits but it
is insane to keep us from clearing them.
Then, *explicitly* go clear _PAGE_GLOBAL from the kernel identity map.
Do not rely on pageattr to do it magically.
After this patch, we can see that "GLB" shows up in each copy of the
page tables, that we have the same number of global entries in each
and that they are the *same* entries.
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_kernel:11
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_user:11
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel:11
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_kernel.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_user.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d kernel.GLB
A quick visual audit also shows that all the entries make sense.
0xfffffe0000000000 is the cpu_entry_area and 0xffffffff81c00000
is the entry/exit text:
0xfffffe0000000000-0xfffffe0000002000 8K ro GLB NX pte

The entry/exit text and cpu_entry_area are mapped into userspace and
the kernel. But, they are not _PAGE_GLOBAL. This creates unnecessary
TLB misses.
Add the _PAGE_GLOBAL flag for these areas.

__ro_after_init data gets stuck in the .rodata section. That's normally
fine because the kernel itself manages the R/W properties.
But, if we run __change_page_attr() on an area which is __ro_after_init,
the .rodata checks will trigger and force the area to be immediately
read-only, even if it is early-ish in boot. This caused problems when
trying to clear the _PAGE_GLOBAL bit for these area in the PTI code:
it cleared _PAGE_GLOBAL like I asked, but also took it up on itself
to clear _PAGE_RW. The kernel then oopses the next time it wrote to
a __ro_after_init data structure.
To fix this, add the kernel_set_to_readonly check, just like we have
for kernel text, just a few lines below in this function.

I was mystified as to where the _PAGE_GLOBAL in the kernel page tables
for kernel text came from. I audited all the places I could find, but
I missed one: head_64.S.
The page tables that we create in here live for a long time, and they
also have _PAGE_GLOBAL set, despite whether the processor supports it
or not. It's harmless, and we got *lucky* that the pageattr code
accidentally clears it when we wipe it out of __supported_pte_mask and
then later try to mark kernel text read-only.
Comment some of these properties to make it easier to find and
understand in the future.

The pageattr code has a mode where it can set or clear PTE bits in
existing PTEs, so the page protections of the *new* PTEs come from
one of two places:
1. The set/clear masks: cpa->mask_clr / cpa->mask_set
2. The existing PTE
We filter ->mask_set/clr for supported PTE bits at entry to
__change_page_attr() so we never need to filter them again.
The only other place permissions can come from is an existing PTE
and those already presumably have good bits. We do not need to filter
them again.

A PTE is constructed from a physical address and a pgprotval_t.
__PAGE_KERNEL, for instance, is a pgprot_t and must be converted
into a pgprotval_t before it can be used to create a PTE. This is
done implicitly within functions like pfn_pte() by massage_pgprot().
However, this makes it very challenging to set bits (and keep them
set) if your bit is being filtered out by massage_pgprot().
This moves the bit filtering out of pfn_pte() and friends. For
users of PAGE_KERNEL*, filtering will be done automatically inside
those macros but for users of __PAGE_KERNEL*, they need to do their
own filtering now.
Note that we also just move pfn_pte/pmd/pud() over to check_pgprot()
instead of massage_pgprot(). This way, we still *look* for
unsupported bits and properly warn about them if we find them. This
might happen if an unfiltered __PAGE_KERNEL* value was passed in,
for instance.

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These include one big-ticket item which is the rework of the idle loop
in order to prevent CPUs from spending too much time in shallow idle
states. It reduces idle power on some systems by 10% or more and may
improve performance of workloads in which the idle loop overhead
matters. This has been in the works for several weeks and it has been
tested and reviewed quite thoroughly.
Also included are changes that finalize the cpufreq cleanup moving
frequency table validation from drivers to the core, a few fixes and
cleanups of cpufreq drivers, a cpuidle documentation update and a PM
QoS core update to mark the expected switch fall-throughs in it.
Specifics:
- Rework the idle loop in order to prevent CPUs from spending too
much time in shallow idle states by making it stop the scheduler
tick before putting the CPU into an idle state only if the idle
duration predicted by the idle governor is long enough.
That required the code to be reordered to invoke the idle governor
before stopping the tick, among other things (Rafael Wysocki,
Frederic Weisbecker, Arnd Bergmann).
- Add the missing description of the residency sysfs attribute to the
cpuidle documentation (Prashanth Prakash).
- Finalize the cpufreq cleanup moving frequency table validation from
drivers to the core (Viresh Kumar).
- Fix a clock leak regression in the armada-37xx cpufreq driver
(Gregory Clement).
- Fix the initialization of the CPU performance data structures for
shared policies in the CPPC cpufreq driver (Shunyong Yang).
- Clean up the ti-cpufreq, intel_pstate and CPPC cpufreq drivers a
bit (Viresh Kumar, Rafael Wysocki).
- Mark the expected switch fall-throughs in the PM QoS core (Gustavo
Silva)"

Juergen Gross noticed that commit f7f99100d8d ("mm: stop zeroing memory
during allocation in vmemmap") broke XEN PV domains when deferred struct
page initialization is enabled.
This is because the xen's PagePinned() flag is getting erased from
struct pages when they are initialized later in boot.
Juergen fixed this problem by disabling deferred pages on xen pv
domains. It is desirable, however, to have this feature available as it
reduces boot time. This fix re-enables the feature for pv-dmains, and
fixes the problem the following way:
The fix is to delay setting PagePinned flag until struct pages for all
allocated memory are initialized, i.e. until after free_all_bootmem().
A new x86_init.hyper op init_after_bootmem() is called to let xen know
that boot allocator is done, and hence struct pages for all the
allocated memory are now initialized. If deferred page initialization
is enabled, the rest of struct pages are going to be initialized later
in boot once page_alloc_init_late() is called.
xen_after_bootmem() walks page table's pages and marks them pinned.

Patch series "exec: Pin stack limit during exec".
Attempts to solve problems with the stack limit changing during exec
continue to be frustrated[1][2]. In addition to the specific issues
around the Stack Clash family of flaws, Andy Lutomirski pointed out[3]
other places during exec where the stack limit is used and is assumed to
be unchanging. Given the many places it gets used and the fact that it
can be manipulated/raced via setrlimit() and prlimit(), I think the only
way to handle this is to move away from the "current" view of the stack
limit and instead attach it to the bprm, and plumb this down into the
functions that need to know the stack limits. This series implements
the approach.
[1] 04e35f4495dd ("exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()")
[2] 779f4e1c6c7c ("Revert "exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()"")
[3] to security@kernel.org, "Subject: existing rlimit races?"
This patch (of 3):
Since it is possible that the stack rlimit can change externally during
exec (either via another thread calling setrlimit() or another process
calling prlimit()), provide a way to pass the rlimit down into the
per-architecture mm layout functions so that the rlimit can stay in the
bprm structure instead of sitting in the signal structure until exec is
finalized.
