We were using CR0.EQ after EXCEPTION_COMMON, hoping it still
contained whether we came from userspace or kernel space.
However, under some circumstances, EXCEPTION_COMMON will
call C code and clobber non-volatile registers, so we really
need to re-load the previous MSR from the stackframe and
re-test.
While there, invert the condition to make the fast path more
obvious and remove the BUG_OPCODE which was a debugging
leftover and call .ret_from_except as we should.

powerpc: Fix register clobbering when accumulating stolen time
When running under a hypervisor that supports stolen time accounting,
we may call C code from the macro EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON in the
exception entry path, which clobbers CR0.
However, the FPU and vector traps rely on CR0 indicating whether we
are coming from userspace or kernel to decide what to do.
So we need to restore that value after the C call

powerpc: Add support for page fault retry and fatal signals
Other architectures such as x86 and ARM have been growing
new support for features like retrying page faults after
dropping the mm semaphore to break contention, or being
able to return from a stuck page fault when a SIGKILL is
pending.
This refactors our implementation of do_page_fault() to
move the error handling out of line in a way similar to
x86 and adds support for those two features.

powerpc: Disable interrupts in 64-bit kernel FP and vector faults
If we get a floating point, altivec or vsx unavaible interrupt in
kernel, we trigger a kernel error. There is no point preserving
the interrupt state, in fact, that can even make debugging harder
as the processor state might change (we may even preempt) between
taking the exception and landing in a debugger.
So just make those 3 disable interrupts unconditionally.

v2: On BookE only disable when hitting the kernel unavailable
path, otherwise it will fail to restore softe as
fast_exception_return doesn't do it.
We currently turn interrupts back to their previous state before
calling do_page_fault(). This can be annoying when debugging as
a bad fault will potentially have lost some processor state before
getting into the debugger.
We also end up calling some generic code with interrupts enabled
such as notify_page_fault() with interrupts enabled, which could
be unexpected.
This changes our code to behave more like other architectures,
and make the assembly entry code call into do_page_faults() with
interrupts disabled. They are conditionally re-enabled from
within do_page_fault() in the same spot x86 does it.
While there, add the might_sleep() test in the case of a successful
trylock of the mmap semaphore, again like x86.
Also fix a bug in the existing assembly where r12 (_MSR) could get
clobbered by C calls (the DTL accounting in the exception common
macro and DISABLE_INTS) in some cases.

powerpc: Improve behaviour of irq tracing on 64-bit exception entry
Some exceptions would unconditionally disable interrupts on entry,
which is fine, but calling lockdep every time not only adds more
overhead than strictly needed, but also means we get quite a few
"redudant" disable logged, which makes it hard to spot the really
bad ones.
So instead, split the macro used by the exception code into a
normal one and a separate one used when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is
enabled, and make the later skip th tracing if interrupts were
already disabled.
Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
We unconditionally hard enable interrupts. This is unnecessary as
syscalls are expected to always be called with interrupts enabled.
While at it, we add a WARN_ON if that is not the case and
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled (we don't want to add overhead
to the fast path when this is not set though).
Thus let's remove the enabling (and associated irq tracing) from
the syscall entry path. Also on Book3S, replace a few mfmsr
instructions with loads of PACAMSR from the PACA, which should be
faster & schedule better.

carma-fpga: fix race between data dumping and DMA callback
When the system is under heavy load, we occasionally saw a problem where
the system would get a legitimate interrupt when they should be
disabled.
This was caused by the data_dma_cb() DMA callback unconditionally
re-enabling FPGA interrupts even when data dumping is disabled. When
data dumping was re-enabled, the irq handler would fire while a DMA was
in progress. The "BUG_ON(priv->inflight != NULL);" during the second
invocation of the DMA callback caused the system to crash.
To fix the issue, the priv->enabled boolean is moved under the
protection of the priv->lock spinlock. The DMA callback checks the
boolean to know whether to re-enable FPGA interrupts before it returns.
Now that it is fixed, the driver keeps FPGA interrupts disabled when it
expects that they are disabled, fixing the bug.

autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64
When the autofs protocol version 5 packet type was added in commit 5c0a32fc2cd0 ("autofs4: add new packet type for v5 communications"), it
obvously tried quite hard to be word-size agnostic, and uses explicitly
sized fields that are all correctly aligned.
However, with the final "char name[NAME_MAX+1]" array at the end, the
actual size of the structure ends up being not very well defined:
because the struct isn't marked 'packed', doing a "sizeof()" on it will
align the size of the struct up to the biggest alignment of the members
it has.
And despite all the members being the same, the alignment of them is
different: a "__u64" has 4-byte alignment on x86-32, but native 8-byte
alignment on x86-64. And while 'NAME_MAX+1' ends up being a nice round
number (256), the name[] array starts out a 4-byte aligned.
End result: the "packed" size of the structure is 300 bytes: 4-byte, but
not 8-byte aligned.
As a result, despite all the fields being in the same place on all
architectures, sizeof() will round up that size to 304 bytes on
architectures that have 8-byte alignment for u64.
Note that this is *not* a problem for 32-bit compat mode on POWER, since
there __u64 is 8-byte aligned even in 32-bit mode. But on x86, 32-bit
and 64-bit alignment is different for 64-bit entities, and as a result
the structure that has exactly the same layout has different sizes.
So on x86-64, but no other architecture, we will just subtract 4 from
the size of the structure when running in a compat task. That way we
will write the properly sized packet that user mode expects.
Not pretty. Sadly, this very subtle, and unnecessary, size difference
has been encoded in user space that wants to read packets of *exactly*
the right size, and will refuse to touch anything else.

remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the
subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct. Fragments are discarded
whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost.
This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages.

epoll: introduce POLLFREE to flush ->signalfd_wqh before kfree()
This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review.
It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh.
See the next change.
epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything
f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue
can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case
of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand
which is not connected to the file.
This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for
epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the
necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in
eventpoll.
__cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if
->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup()
helper.
ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list).
This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you
share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you
should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do
not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with
epoll.
The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish
the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL)
returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does
EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd
has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread.
In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms.
It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll
locks, this seems to be true.
Note:
- we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll()
is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE.
- signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE,
we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to
make sure it can't be "lost".

mm: memcg: Correct unregistring of events attached to the same eventfd
There is an issue when memcg unregisters events that were attached to
the same eventfd:
- On the first call mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() removes all
events attached to a given eventfd, and if there were no events left,
thresholds->primary would become NULL;
- Since there were several events registered, cgroups core will call
mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() again, but now kernel will oops,
as the function doesn't expect that threshold->primary may be NULL.
That's a good question whether mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event()
should actually remove all events in one go, but nowadays it can't
do any better as cftype->unregister_event callback doesn't pass
any private event-associated cookie. So, let's fix the issue by
simply checking for threshold->primary.

netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries (v2)
Marcell Zambo and Janos Farago noticed and reported that when

The patch fixes the soft lockup with limiting the holding of the
nf_conntrack_lock to the minimum, where it's absolutely required.
It required to extend (and thus change) nf_conntrack_hash_insert

Said commit adds a check whether the carrier link is ok. If the link is
not ok, the skb is freed and no new dma descriptor added to the rx dma

status has not yet been updated. If a lot of packets are received while
netif_carrier_ok returns false, all dma descriptors are freed and the
rx dma transfer is stopped.
The bug occurs when the board is connected to a network with lots of
traffic and the ifconfig down/up is done, e.g., when reconfiguring
the interface with DHCP.
The bug can be reproduced by flood pinging the davinci board while doing
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 up
on the board.
After that, the rx path stops working and the overrun value reported

Btrfs: clear the extent uptodate bits during parent transid failures
If btrfs reads a block and finds a parent transid mismatch, it clears
the uptodate flags on the extent buffer, and the pages inside it. But
we only clear the uptodate bits in the state tree if the block straddles
more than one page.
This is from an old optimization from to reduce contention on the extent
state tree. But it is buggy because the code that retries a read from
a different copy of the block is going to find the uptodate state bits
set and skip the IO.
The end result of the bug is that we'll never actually read the good
copy (if there is one).
The fix here is to always clear the uptodate state bits, which is safe
because this code is only called when the parent transid fails.

Hence when we release the reserved memory that contains dump data, the

the first kernel before we register for firmware-assisted dump. After the
successful dump registration, initialize the elfcore header and populate
PT_LOAD program headers with crash memory ranges. The elfcore header is
saved in the scratch area within the reserved memory. The scratch area starts
at the end of the memory reserved for saving RMR region contents. The
scratch area contains fadump crash info structure that contains magic number
for fadump validation and physical address where the eflcore header can be
found. This structure will also be used to pass some important crash info
data to the second kernel which will help second kernel to populate ELF core
header with correct data before it gets exported through /proc/vmcore. Since
the firmware preserves the entire partition memory at the time of crash the
contents of the scratch area will be preserved till second kernel boot.
Since the memory dump exported through /proc/vmcore is in ELF format similar
to kdump, it will help us to reuse the kdump infrastructure for dump capture
and filtering. Unlike phyp dump, userspace tool does not need to refer any
sysfs interface while reading /proc/vmcore.
NOTE: The current design implementation does not address a possibility of
introducing additional fields (in future) to this structure without affecting
compatibility. It's on TODO list to come up with better approach to
address this.

If the firmware-assisted dump fails to reserve the memory, then fallback
