      x86/topology: Avoid wasting 128k for package id array · 30bb9811
      Andi Kleen authored 
      

Analyzing large early boot allocations unveiled the logical package id
storage as a prominent memory waste. Since commit 1f12e32f
("x86/topology: Create logical package id") every 64-bit system allocates a
128k array to convert logical package ids.

This happens because the array is sized for MAX_LOCAL_APIC which is always
32k on 64bit systems, and it needs 4 bytes for each entry.

This is fairly wasteful, especially for the common case of having only one
socket, which uses exactly 4 byte out of 128K.

There is no user of the package id map which is performance critical, so
the lookup is not required to be O(1). Store the logical processor id in
cpu_data and use a loop based lookup.

To keep the mapping stable accross cpu hotplug operations, add a flag to
cpu_data which is set when the CPU is brought up the first time. When the
flag is set, then cpu_data is not reinitialized by copying boot_cpu_data on
subsequent bringups.

[ tglx: Rename the flag to 'initialized', use proper pointers instead of
  	repeated cpu_data(x) evaluation and massage changelog. ]

      x86/pvclock: add setter for pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va · 9f08890a
      Joao Martins authored 
      

Right now there is only a pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va() which is defined
on kvmclock since:

commit dac16fba
("x86/vdso: Get pvclock data from the vvar VMA instead of the fixmap")

The only user of this interface so far is kvm. This commit adds a
setter function for the pvti page and moves pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va
to pvclock, which is a more generic place to have it; and would
allow other PV clocksources to use it, such as Xen.

While moving pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va into pvclock, rename also this
function to pvclock_get_pvti_cpu0_va (including its call sites)
to be symmetric with the setter (pvclock_set_pvti_cpu0_va).

      x86/umip: Add emulation code for UMIP instructions · 1e5db223
      Ricardo Neri authored 
      

The feature User-Mode Instruction Prevention present in recent Intel
processor prevents a group of instructions (sgdt, sidt, sldt, smsw, and
str) from being executed with CPL > 0. Otherwise, a general protection
fault is issued.

Rather than relaying to the user space the general protection fault caused
by the UMIP-protected instructions (in the form of a SIGSEGV signal), it
can be trapped and the instruction emulated to provide a dummy result.
This allows to both conserve the current kernel behavior and not reveal the
system resources that UMIP intends to protect (i.e., the locations of the
global descriptor and interrupt descriptor tables, the segment selectors of
the local descriptor table, the value of the task state register and the
contents of the CR0 register).

This emulation is needed because certain applications (e.g., WineHQ and
DOSEMU2) rely on this subset of instructions to function. Given that sldt
and str are not commonly used in programs that run on WineHQ or DOSEMU2,
they are not emulated. Also, emulation is provided only for 32-bit
processes; 64-bit processes that attempt to use the instructions that UMIP
protects will receive the SIGSEGV signal issued as a consequence of the
general protection fault.

The instructions protected by UMIP can be split in two groups. Those which
return a kernel memory address (sgdt and sidt) and those which return a
value (smsw, sldt and str; the last two not emulated).

For the instructions that return a kernel memory address, applications such
as WineHQ rely on the result being located in the kernel memory space, not
the actual location of the table. The result is emulated as a hard-coded
value that lies close to the top of the kernel memory. The limit for the
GDT and the IDT are set to zero.

The instruction smsw is emulated to return the value that the register CR0
has at boot time as set in the head_32.

Care is taken to appropriately emulate the results when segmentation is
used. That is, rather than relying on USER_DS and USER_CS, the function
insn_get_addr_ref() inspects the segment descriptor pointed by the
registers in pt_regs. This ensures that we correctly obtain the segment
base address and the address and operand sizes even if the user space
application uses a local descriptor table.

      x86/cpufeature: Add User-Mode Instruction Prevention definitions · 3522c2a6
      Ricardo Neri authored 
      

User-Mode Instruction Prevention is a security feature present in new
Intel processors that, when set, prevents the execution of a subset of
instructions if such instructions are executed in user mode (CPL > 0).
Attempting to execute such instructions causes a general protection
exception.

The subset of instructions comprises:

 * SGDT - Store Global Descriptor Table
 * SIDT - Store Interrupt Descriptor Table
 * SLDT - Store Local Descriptor Table
 * SMSW - Store Machine Status Word
 * STR  - Store Task Register

This feature is also added to the list of disabled-features to allow
a cleaner handling of build-time configuration.

      Revert "x86/mm: Stop calling leave_mm() in idle code" · 67535736
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      

This reverts commit 43858b4f.

The reason I removed the leave_mm() calls in question is because the
heuristic wasn't needed after that patch.  With the original version
of my PCID series, we never flushed a "lazy cpu" (i.e. a CPU running
kernel thread) due a flush on the loaded mm.

Unfortunately, that caused architectural issues, so now I've
reinstated these flushes on non-PCID systems in:

    commit b956575b ("x86/mm: Flush more aggressively in lazy TLB mode").

That, in turn, gives us a power management and occasionally
performance regression as compared to old kernels: a process that
goes into a deep idle state on a given CPU and gets its mm flushed
due to activity on a different CPU will wake the idle CPU.

Reinstate the old ugly heuristic: if a CPU goes into ACPI C3 or an
intel_idle state that is likely to cause a TLB flush gets its mm
switched to init_mm before going idle.

FWIW, this heuristic is lousy.  Whether we should change CR3 before
idle isn't a good hint except insofar as the performance hit is a bit
lower if the TLB is getting flushed by the idle code anyway.  What we
really want to know is whether we anticipate being idle long enough
that the mm is likely to be flushed before we wake up.  This is more a
matter of the expected latency than the idle state that gets chosen.
This heuristic also completely fails on systems that don't know
whether the TLB will be flushed (e.g. AMD systems?).  OTOH it may be a
bit obsolete anyway -- PCID systems don't presently benefit from this
heuristic at all.

We also shouldn't do this callback from innermost bit of the idle code
due to the RCU nastiness it causes.  All the information need is
available before rcu_idle_enter() needs to happen.

      License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license · e2be04c7
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored 
      

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be.  This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier.  The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier.  The format
is:
        ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text.  The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored 
      

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

      x86/entry/64: Remove thread_struct::sp0 · d375cf15
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      

On x86_64, we can easily calculate sp0 when needed instead of
storing it in thread_struct.

On x86_32, a similar cleanup would be possible, but it would require
cleaning up the vm86 code first, and that can wait for a later
cleanup series.

      x86/entry/64: Remove all remaining direct thread_struct::sp0 reads · 46f5a10a
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      

The only remaining readers in context switch code or vm86(), and
they all just want to update TSS.sp0 to match the current task.
Replace them all with a new helper update_sp0().
