x86: Fix section mismatch on load_ucode_ap

2013-06-27T17:38:46+00:00

commit 949785996ec2250fa958fc3a924e5186e9a8fa2c upstream.

We are in the process of removing all the __cpuinit annotations.
While working on making that change, an existing problem was
made evident:

  WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x198f2): Section mismatch
  in reference from the function cpu_init() to the function
  .init.text:load_ucode_ap()   The function cpu_init() references
  the function __init load_ucode_ap().  This is often because cpu_init
  lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of load_ucode_ap is wrong.

This now appears because in my working tree, cpu_init() is no longer
tagged as __cpuinit, and so the audit picks up the mismatch.  The 2nd
hypothesis from the audit is the correct one, as there was an incorrect
__init tag on the prototype in the header (but __cpuinit was used on
the function itself.)

The audit is telling us that the prototype's __init annotation took
effect and the function did land in the .init.text section.  Checking
with objdump on a mainline tree that still has __cpuinit shows that
the __cpuinit on the function takes precedence over the __init on the
prototype, but that won't be true once we make __cpuinit a no-op.

Even though we are removing __cpuinit, we temporarily align both
the function and the prototype on __cpuinit so that the changeset
can be applied to stable trees  if desired.

x86: fix build error and kconfig for ia32_emulation and binfmt

commit d1603990ea626668c78527376d9ec084d634202d upstream.

Fix kconfig warning and build errors on x86_64 by selecting BINFMT_ELF

x86, mtrr: Fix original mtrr range get for mtrr_cleanup

2013-06-27T17:38:46+00:00

commit d8d386c10630d8f7837700f4c466443d49e12cc0 upstream.

Joshua reported: Commit cd7b304dfaf1 (x86, range: fix missing merge
during add range) broke mtrr cleanup on his setup in 3.9.5.
corresponding commit in upstream is fbe06b7bae7c.

  *BAD*gran_size: 64K chunk_size: 16M num_reg: 6 lose cover RAM: -0G

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59491

So it rejects new var mtrr layout.

It turns out we have some problem with initial mtrr range retrieval.
The current sequence is:
	x86_get_mtrr_mem_range
		==> bunchs of add_range_with_merge
		==> bunchs of subract_range
		==> clean_sort_range
	add_range_with_merge for [0,1M)
	sort_range()

add_range_with_merge could have blank slots, so we can not just
sort only, that will have final result have extra blank slot in head.

So move that calling add_range_with_merge for [0,1M), with that we
could avoid extra clean_sort_range calling.

KVM: x86: remove vcpu's CPL check in host-invoked XCR set

2013-06-27T17:38:44+00:00

commit 764bcbc5a6d7a2f3e75c9f0e4caa984e2926e346 upstream.

__kvm_set_xcr function does the CPL check when set xcr. __kvm_set_xcr is
called in two flows, one is invoked by guest, call stack shown as below,

  handle_xsetbv(or xsetbv_interception)
    kvm_set_xcr
      __kvm_set_xcr

the other one is invoked by host, for example during system reset:

  kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl
    kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_set_xcrs
      __kvm_set_xcr

The former does need the CPL check, but the latter does not.

x86: kvmclock: zero initialize pvclock shared memory area

2013-06-27T17:38:44+00:00

commit 07868fc6aaf57847b0f3a3d53086b7556eb83f4a upstream.

kernel might hung in pvclock_clocksource_read() due to
uninitialized memory might contain odd version value in
following cycle:

        do {
                version = __pvclock_read_cycles(src, &ret, &flags);
        } while ((src->version & 1) || version != src->version);

if secondary kvmclock is accessed before it's registered with kvm.

Clear garbage in pvclock shared memory area right after it's
allocated to avoid this issue.

parisc: fix serial ports on C8000 workstation

commit 9a66d1869d90f13fbaf83dcce5b1aeec86fbc699 upstream.

The C8000 workstation (64 bit kernel only) has a somewhat different
serial port configuration than other models.
Thomas Bogendoerfer sent a patch to fix this in September 2010, which
was now minimally modified by me.

parisc: fix kernel BUG at arch/parisc/include/asm/mmzone.h:50 (part 2)

2013-06-27T17:38:43+00:00

commit 91ea8207168793b365322be3c90a4ee9e8b03ed4 upstream.

Make sure that we really return -1 (instead of 0x00ff) as node id for
page frame numbers which are not physically available.

This finally fixes the kernel panic when running
cat /proc/kpageflags /proc/kpagecount.

Theoretically this patch now limits the number of physical memory ranges
to 127 instead of 254, but currently we have MAX_PHYSMEM_RANGES
hardcoded to 8 which is sufficient for all existing parisc machines.

parisc: kernel: using strlcpy() instead of strcpy()

2013-06-27T17:38:43+00:00

commit ea99b1adf22abd62bdcf14b1c9a0a4d3664eefd8 upstream.

'boot_args' is an input args, and 'boot_command_line' has a fix length.
So use strlcpy() instead of strcpy() to avoid memory overflow.
