perf/x86: Check all MSRs before passing hw check
check_hw_exists() has a number of checks which go to two exit
paths: msr_fail and bios_fail. Checks classified as msr_fail
will cause check_hw_exists() to return false, causing the PMU
not to be used; bios_fail checks will only cause a warning to be
printed, but will return true.
The problem is that if there are both msr failures and bios
failures, and the routine hits a bios_fail check first, it will
exit early and return true, not finishing the rest of the msr
checks. If those msrs are in fact broken, it will cause them to
be used erroneously.
In the case of a Xen PV VM, the guest OS has read access to all
the MSRs, but write access is white-listed to supported
features. Writes to unsupported MSRs have no effect. The PMU
MSRs are not (typically) supported, because they are expensive
to save and restore on a VM context switch. One of the
"msr_fail" checks is supposed to detect this circumstance (ether
for Xen or KVM) and disable the harware PMU.
However, on one of my AMD boxen, there is (apparently) a broken
BIOS which triggers one of the bios_fail checks. In particular,
MSR_K7_EVNTSEL0 has the ARCH_PERFMON_EVENTSEL_ENABLE bit set.
The guest kernel detects this because it has read access to all
MSRs, and causes it to skip the rest of the checks and try to
use the non-existent hardware PMU. This minimally causes a lot
of useless instruction emulation and Xen console spam; it may
cause other issues with the watchdog as well.
This changset causes check_hw_exists() to go through all of the
msr checks, failing and returning false if any of them fail.
This makes sure that a guest running under Xen without a virtual
PMU will detect that there is no functioning PMU and not attempt
to use it.
This problem affects kernels as far back as 3.2, and should thus
be considered for backport.

perf/x86/intel: Fix SNB-EP CBO and PCU uncore PMU filter management
The existing code assumes all Cbox and PCU events are using
filter, but actually the filter is event specific. Furthermore
the filter is sub-divided into multiple fields which are used
by different events.
The valid mask for both offcore_response_0 and
offcore_response_1 was wrong for SNB/SNB-EP,
IVB/IVB-EP. It was possible to write to
reserved bit and cause a GP fault crashing
the kernel.
This patch fixes the problem by correctly marking the
reserved bits in the valid mask for all the processors
mentioned above.
A distinction between desktop and server parts is introduced
because bits 24-30 are only available on the server parts.
This version of the patch is just a rebase to perf/urgent tree

kobject: fix kset_find_obj() race with concurrent last kobject_put()
Anatol Pomozov identified a race condition that hits module unloading
and re-loading. To quote Anatol:
"This is a race codition that exists between kset_find_obj() and
kobject_put(). kset_find_obj() might return kobject that has refcount
equal to 0 if this kobject is freeing by kobject_put() in other
thread.
Here is timeline for the crash in case if kset_find_obj() searches for
an object tht nobody holds and other thread is doing kobject_put() on
the same kobject:
THREAD A (calls kset_find_obj()) THREAD B (calls kobject_put())
splin_lock()
atomic_dec_return(kobj->kref), counter gets zero here
... starts kobject cleanup ....
spin_lock() // WAIT thread A in kobj_kset_leave()
iterate over kset->list
atomic_inc(kobj->kref) (counter becomes 1)
spin_unlock()
spin_lock() // taken
// it does not know that thread A increased counter so it
remove obj from list
spin_unlock()
vfree(module) // frees module object with containing kobj
// kobj points to freed memory area!!
kobject_put(kobj) // OOPS!!!!
The race above happens because module.c tries to use kset_find_obj()
when somebody unloads module. The module.c code was introduced in
commit 6494a93d55fa"
Anatol supplied a patch specific for module.c that worked around the
problem by simply not using kset_find_obj() at all, but rather than make
a local band-aid, this just fixes kset_find_obj() to be thread-safe
using the proper model of refusing the get a new reference if the
refcount has already dropped to zero.
See examples of this proper refcount handling not only in the kref
documentation, but in various other equivalent uses of this pattern by
grepping for atomic_inc_not_zero().
[ Side note: the module race does indicate that module loading and
unloading is not properly serialized wrt sysfs information using the
module mutex. That may require further thought, but this is the
correct fix at the kobject layer regardless. ]

alloc_trace_uprobe() to initialize consumer.ret_handler if the new

Extract the output code from uprobe_trace_func() and uprobe_perf_func()
into the new helpers, they will be used by ->ret_handler() too. We also
add the unused "unsigned long func" argument in advance, to simplify the
next changes.
struct uprobe_trace_entry_head has a single member for reporting,
"unsigned long ip". If we want to support uretprobes we need to
create another struct which has "func" and "ret_ip" and duplicate
a lot of functions, like trace_kprobe.c does.
To avoid this copy-and-paste horror we turn ->ip into ->vaddr[]

We should teach it to handle longjmp() which can invalidate the pending

When a uprobe with return probe consumer is hit, prepare_uretprobe()
function is invoked. It creates return_instance, hijacks return address

complaining about nbytes not being right for our fsynced file. That is because
the new fsync stuff doesn't wait for ordered extents to complete, so the inodes
nbytes are not necessarily updated properly when we log it. So to fix this we
need to set nbytes to whatever it is on the inode that is on disk, so when we
replay the extents we can just add the bytes that are being added as we replay
the extent. This makes it work for the case that we have the wrong nbytes or
the case that we logged everything and nbytes is actually correct. With this
I'm no longer getting nbytes errors out of btrfsck.

Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f520 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).
The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).
This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.
BTW, I disassembled and checked that:
if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)
generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.

x86/mm/cpa: Convert noop to functional fix
Commit:

introduced a valid fix but one location that didn't trigger the bug that
lead to finding those (small) problems, wasn't updated using the

The wrong variable was also initialized for no good reason, that
may have been the source of the confusion. Remove the noop
initialization accordingly.
Commit a8aed3e0752b also erroneously removed one canon_pgprot pass meant
to clear pmd bitflags not supported in hardware by older CPUs, that
automatically gets corrected by this patch too by applying it to the right

bnx2x: Prevent null pointer dereference in AFEX mode
The cnic module is responsible for initializing various bnx2x structs
via callbacks provided by the bnx2x module.
One such struct is the queue object for the FCoE queue.
If a device is working in AFEX mode and its configuration allows FCoE yet
the cnic module is not loaded, it's very likely a null pointer dereference
will occur, as the bnx2x will erroneously access the FCoE's queue object.
Prevent said access until cnic properly registers itself.

x86, mm: Patch out arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() when running on bare metal
Invoking arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() results in calls to
preempt_enable()/disable() which may have performance impact.
Since lazy MMU is not used on bare metal we can patch away
arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() so that it is never called in such
environment.
[ hpa: the previous patch "Fix vmalloc_fault oops during lazy MMU

x86, mm, paravirt: Fix vmalloc_fault oops during lazy MMU updates
In paravirtualized x86_64 kernels, vmalloc_fault may cause an oops
when lazy MMU updates are enabled, because set_pgd effects are being
deferred.
One instance of this problem is during process mm cleanup with memory
cgroups enabled. The chain of events is as follows:
- zap_pte_range enables lazy MMU updates
- zap_pte_range eventually calls mem_cgroup_charge_statistics,
which accesses the vmalloc'd mem_cgroup per-cpu stat area
- vmalloc_fault is triggered which tries to sync the corresponding
PGD entry with set_pgd, but the update is deferred
- vmalloc_fault oopses due to a mismatch in the PUD entries

NFSv4: Doh! Typo in the fix to nfs41_walk_client_list
This patch fix the regression introduced by the commit 3202bf0157ccb
"arm: mvebu: Improve the SMP support of the interrupt controller":
GPIO IRQ were no longer delivered to the CPUs.
To be delivered to a CPU an interrupt must be enabled at CPU level and
at interrupt source level. Before the offending patch, all the
interrupts were enabled at source level during map() function. Mask()
and unmask() was done by handling the per-CPU part. It was fine when
running in UP with only one CPU.
The offending patch added support for SMP, in this case mask() and
unmask() was done by handling the interrupt source level part. The
per-CPU level part was handled by the affinity API to select the CPU
which will receive the interrupt. (Due to some hardware limitation
only one CPU at a time can received a given interrupt).
For "normal" interrupt __setup_irq() was called when an irq was
registered. irq_set_affinity() is called from this function, which
enabled the interrupt on one of the CPUs. Whereas for GPIO IRQ which
were chained interrupts, the irq_set_affinity() was never called and
none of the CPUs was selected to receive the interrupt.
With this patch all the interrupt are enable on the current CPU during
map() function. Enabling the interrupts on a CPU doesn't depend
anymore on irq_set_affinity() and then the chained irq are not anymore
a special case. However the CPU which will receive the irq can still
be modify later using irq_set_affinity().
Tested with Mirabox (A370) and Openblocks AX3 (AXP), rootfs mounted
over NFS, compiled with CONFIG_SMP=y/N.
