commit db4d30fbb71b47e4ecb11c4efa5d8aad4b03dfae upstream.

Some processors may incur a machine check error possibly resulting in an
unrecoverable CPU lockup when an instruction fetch encounters a TLB
multi-hit in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is
changed along with either the physical address or cache type. The relevant
erratum can be found here:

   https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205195

There are other processors affected for which the erratum does not fully
disclose the impact.

This issue affects both bare-metal x86 page tables and EPT.

It can be mitigated by either eliminating the use of large pages or by
using careful TLB invalidations when changing the page size in the page
tables.

Just like Spectre, Meltdown, L1TF and MDS, a new bit has been allocated in
MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) and will be set on CPUs which
are mitigated against this issue.

commit 6608b45ac5ecb56f9e171252229c39580cc85f0f upstream.

Add the sysfs reporting file for TSX Async Abort. It exposes the
vulnerability and the mitigation state similar to the existing files for
the other hardware vulnerabilities.

Sysfs file path is:

<title>cpufreq: Avoid cpufreq_suspend() deadlock on system shutdown</title>

commit 65650b35133ff20f0c9ef0abd5c3c66dbce3ae57 upstream.

It is incorrect to set the cpufreq syscore shutdown callback pointer
to cpufreq_suspend(), because that function cannot be run in the
syscore stage of system shutdown for two reasons: (a) it may attempt
to carry out actions depending on devices that have already been shut
down at that point and (b) the RCU synchronization carried out by it
may not be able to make progress then.

The latter issue has been present since commit 45975c7d21a1 ("rcu:
Define RCU-sched API in terms of RCU for Tree RCU PREEMPT builds"),
but the former one has been there since commit 90de2a4aa9f3 ("cpufreq:
suspend cpufreq governors on shutdown") regardless.

Fix that by dropping cpufreq_syscore_ops altogether and making
device_shutdown() call cpufreq_suspend() directly before shutting
down devices, which is along the lines of what system-wide power
management does.

<title>drivers/base/memory.c: don't access uninitialized memmaps in soft_offline_page_store()</title>

commit 641fe2e9387a36f9ee01d7c69382d1fe147a5e98 upstream.

Uninitialized memmaps contain garbage and in the worst case trigger kernel
BUGs, especially with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING.  They should not get touched.

Right now, when trying to soft-offline a PFN that resides on a memory
block that was never onlined, one gets a misleading error with
CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING:

  :/# echo 5637144576 &gt; /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page
  [   23.097167] soft offline: 0x150000 page already poisoned

But the actual result depends on the garbage in the memmap.

soft_offline_page() can only work with online pages, it returns -EIO in
case of ZONE_DEVICE.  Make sure to only forward pages that are online
(iow, managed by the buddy) and, therefore, have an initialized memmap.

Add a check against pfn_to_online_page() and similarly return -EIO.

commit ac43432cb1f5c2950408534987e57c2071e24d8f upstream.

There is a race condition between removing glue directory and adding a new
device under the glue dir. It can be reproduced in following test:

CPU1:                                         CPU2:

device_add()
  get_device_parent()
    class_dir_create_and_add()
      kobject_add_internal()
        create_dir()    // create glue_dir

                                              device_add()
                                                get_device_parent()
                                                  kobject_get() // get glue_dir

device_del()
  cleanup_glue_dir()
    kobject_del(glue_dir)

                                                kobject_add()
                                                  kobject_add_internal()
                                                    create_dir() // in glue_dir
                                                      sysfs_create_dir_ns()
                                                        kernfs_create_dir_ns(sd)

      sysfs_remove_dir() // glue_dir-&gt;sd=NULL
      sysfs_put()        // free glue_dir-&gt;sd

                                                          // sd is freed
                                                          kernfs_new_node(sd)
                                                            kernfs_get(glue_dir)
                                                            kernfs_add_one()
                                                            kernfs_put()

Before CPU1 remove last child device under glue dir, if CPU2 add a new
device under glue dir, the glue_dir kobject reference count will be
increase to 2 via kobject_get() in get_device_parent(). And CPU2 has
been called kernfs_create_dir_ns(), but not call kernfs_new_node().
Meanwhile, CPU1 call sysfs_remove_dir() and sysfs_put(). This result in
glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed and it's reference count will be 0. Then CPU2 call
kernfs_get(glue_dir) will trigger a warning in kernfs_get() and increase
it's reference count to 1. Because glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed by CPU1, the next
call kernfs_add_one() by CPU2 will fail(This is also use-after-free)
and call kernfs_put() to decrease reference count. Because the reference
count is decremented to 0, it will also call kmem_cache_free() to free
the glue_dir-&gt;sd again. This will result in double free.

In order to avoid this happening, we also should make sure that kernfs_node
for glue_dir is released in CPU1 only when refcount for glue_dir kobj is
1 to fix this race.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 4.14 with the following patch
applied:

commit ac43432cb1f5c2950408534987e57c2071e24d8f upstream.

There is a race condition between removing glue directory and adding a new
device under the glue dir. It can be reproduced in following test:

CPU1:                                         CPU2:

device_add()
  get_device_parent()
    class_dir_create_and_add()
      kobject_add_internal()
        create_dir()    // create glue_dir

                                              device_add()
                                                get_device_parent()
                                                  kobject_get() // get glue_dir

device_del()
  cleanup_glue_dir()
    kobject_del(glue_dir)

                                                kobject_add()
                                                  kobject_add_internal()
                                                    create_dir() // in glue_dir
                                                      sysfs_create_dir_ns()
                                                        kernfs_create_dir_ns(sd)

      sysfs_remove_dir() // glue_dir-&gt;sd=NULL
      sysfs_put()        // free glue_dir-&gt;sd

                                                          // sd is freed
                                                          kernfs_new_node(sd)
                                                            kernfs_get(glue_dir)
                                                            kernfs_add_one()
                                                            kernfs_put()

Before CPU1 remove last child device under glue dir, if CPU2 add a new
device under glue dir, the glue_dir kobject reference count will be
increase to 2 via kobject_get() in get_device_parent(). And CPU2 has
been called kernfs_create_dir_ns(), but not call kernfs_new_node().
Meanwhile, CPU1 call sysfs_remove_dir() and sysfs_put(). This result in
glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed and it's reference count will be 0. Then CPU2 call
kernfs_get(glue_dir) will trigger a warning in kernfs_get() and increase
it's reference count to 1. Because glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed by CPU1, the next
call kernfs_add_one() by CPU2 will fail(This is also use-after-free)
and call kernfs_put() to decrease reference count. Because the reference
count is decremented to 0, it will also call kmem_cache_free() to free
the glue_dir-&gt;sd again. This will result in double free.

In order to avoid this happening, we also should make sure that kernfs_node
for glue_dir is released in CPU1 only when refcount for glue_dir kobj is
1 to fix this race.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 4.14 with the following patch
applied:

[ Upstream commit db057679de3e9e6a03c1bcd5aee09b0d25fd9f5b ]

On buses like SlimBus and SoundWire which does not support
gather_writes yet in regmap, A bulk write on paged register
would be silently ignored after programming page.
This is because local variable 'ret' value in regmap_raw_write_impl()
gets reset to 0 once page register is written successfully and the
code below checks for 'ret' value to be -ENOTSUPP before linearising
the write buffer to send to bus-&gt;write().

Fix this by resetting the 'ret' value to -ENOTSUPP in cases where
gather_writes() is not supported or single register write is
not possible.

commit 83b44fe343b5abfcb1b2261289bd0cfcfcfd60a8 upstream.

The cacheinfo structures are alloced/freed by cpu online/offline
callbacks. Originally these were only used by sysfs to expose the
cache topology to user space. Without any in-kernel dependencies
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN was an appropriate choice.

resctrl has started using these structures to identify CPUs that
share a cache. It updates its 'domain' structures from cpu
online/offline callbacks. These depend on the cacheinfo structures
(resctrl_online_cpu()-&gt;domain_add_cpu()-&gt;get_cache_id()-&gt;
 get_cpu_cacheinfo()).
These also run as CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN.

Now that there is an in-kernel dependency, move the cacheinfo
work earlier so we know its done before resctrl's CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN
work runs.

[ Upstream commit dc351d4c5f4fe4d0f274d6d660227be0c3a03317 ]

The dev-&gt;power.direct_complete flag may become set in device_prepare() in
case the device don't have any PM callbacks (dev-&gt;power.no_pm_callbacks is
set). This leads to a broken behaviour, when there is child having wakeup
enabled and relies on its parent to be used in the wakeup path.

More precisely, when the direct complete path becomes selected for the
child in __device_suspend(), the propagation of the dev-&gt;power.wakeup_path
becomes skipped as well.

Let's address this problem, by checking if the device is a part the wakeup
path or has wakeup enabled, then prevent the direct complete path from
being used.

commit 0b777eee88d712256ba8232a9429edb17c4f9ceb upstream.

In commit 376991db4b64 ("driver core: Postpone DMA tear-down until after
devres release"), we changed the ordering of tearing down the device DMA
ops and releasing all the device's resources; this was because the DMA ops
should be maintained until we release the device's managed DMA memories.

However, we have seen another crash on an arm64 system when a
device driver probe fails:

The crash occurs for the same reason.

In this case, on the really_probe() failure path, we are still clearing
the DMA ops prior to releasing the device's managed memories.

This patch fixes this issue by reordering the DMA ops teardown and the
call to devres_release_all() on the failure path.

The crash occurs for the same reason.

In this case, on the really_probe() failure path, we are still clearing
the DMA ops prior to releasing the device's managed memories.

This patch fixes this issue by reordering the DMA ops teardown and the
call to devres_release_all() on the failure path.
