| * module: signature checking hookRusty Russell2012-10-101-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We do a very simple search for a particular string appended to the module (which is cache-hot and about to be SHA'd anyway). There's both a config option and a boot parameter which control whether we accept or fail with unsigned modules and modules that are signed with an unknown key. If module signing is enabled, the kernel will be tainted if a module is loaded that is unsigned or has a signature for which we don't have the key.

| * | NFS: Add nfs4_unique_id boot parameterChuck Lever2012-10-011-0/+5
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An optional boot parameter is introduced to allow client administrators to specify a string that the Linux NFS client can insert into its nfs_client_id4 id string, to make it both more globally unique, and to ensure that it doesn't change even if the client's nodename changes. If this boot parameter is not specified, the client's nodename is used, as before. Client installation procedures can create a unique string (typically, a UUID) which remains unchanged during the lifetime of that client instance. This works just like creating a UUID for the label of the system's root and boot volumes.

This patch extends the policy language with 'fowner', defines an appraise policy, which appraises all files owned by root, and defines 'ima_appraise_tcb', a new boot command line option, to enable the appraise policy. Changelog v3: - separate the measure from the appraise rules in order to support measuring without appraising and appraising without measuring. - change appraisal default for filesystems without xattr support to fail - update default appraise policy for cgroups Changelog v1: - don't appraise RAMFS (Dmitry Kasatkin) - merged rest of "ima: ima_must_appraise_or_measure API change" commit (Dmtiry Kasatkin) ima_must_appraise_or_measure() called ima_match_policy twice, which searched the policy for a matching rule. Once for a matching measurement rule and subsequently for an appraisal rule. Searching the policy twice is unnecessary overhead, which could be noticeable with a large policy. The new version of ima_must_appraise_or_measure() does everything in a single iteration using a new version of ima_match_policy(). It returns IMA_MEASURE, IMA_APPRAISE mask. With the use of action mask only one efficient matching function is enough. Removed other specific versions of matching functions.

The IMA-appraisal extension adds local integrity validation and enforcement of the measurement against a "good" value stored as an extended attribute 'security.ima'. The initial methods for validating 'security.ima' are hashed based, which provides file data integrity, and digital signature based, which in addition to providing file data integrity, provides authenticity. This patch creates and maintains the 'security.ima' xattr, containing the file data hash measurement. Protection of the xattr is provided by EVM, if enabled and configured. Based on policy, IMA calls evm_verifyxattr() to verify a file's metadata integrity and, assuming success, compares the file's current hash value with the one stored as an extended attribute in 'security.ima'. Changelov v4: - changed iint cache flags to hex values Changelog v3: - change appraisal default for filesystems without xattr support to fail Changelog v2: - fix audit msg 'res' value - removed unused 'ima_appraise=' values Changelog v1: - removed unused iint mutex (Dmitry Kasatkin) - setattr hook must not reset appraised (Dmitry Kasatkin) - evm_verifyxattr() now differentiates between no 'security.evm' xattr (INTEGRITY_NOLABEL) and no EVM 'protected' xattrs included in the 'security.evm' (INTEGRITY_NOXATTRS). - replace hash_status with ima_status (Dmitry Kasatkin) - re-initialize slab element ima_status on free (Dmitry Kasatkin) - include 'security.ima' in EVM if CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE, not CONFIG_IMA - merged half "ima: ima_must_appraise_or_measure API change" (Dmitry Kasatkin) - removed unnecessary error variable in process_measurement() (Dmitry Kasatkin) - use ima_inode_post_setattr() stub function, if IMA_APPRAISE not configured (moved ima_inode_post_setattr() to ima_appraise.c) - make sure ima_collect_measurement() can read file Changelog: - add 'iint' to evm_verifyxattr() call (Dimitry Kasatkin) - fix the race condition between chmod, which takes the i_mutex and then iint->mutex, and ima_file_free() and process_measurement(), which take the locks in the reverse order, by eliminating iint->mutex. (Dmitry Kasatkin) - cleanup of ima_appraise_measurement() (Dmitry Kasatkin) - changes as a result of the iint not allocated for all regular files, but only for those measured/appraised. - don't try to appraise new/empty files - expanded ima_appraisal description in ima/Kconfig - IMA appraise definitions required even if IMA_APPRAISE not enabled - add return value to ima_must_appraise() stub - unconditionally set status = INTEGRITY_PASS *after* testing status, not before.

If I remove the alternatives_smp_switch() from the offline path [...] the mean offline overhead is 550/42=13.1 milliseconds Basically, we're never going to get those 120ms back, and the code is pretty messy. We get rid of: 1) The "smp-alt-once" boot option. It's actually "smp-alt-boot", the documentation is wrong. It's now the default. 2) The skip_smp_alternatives flag used by suspend. 3) arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_begin() and arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_end() which were only used to set this one flag.

* | rcu: Control grace-period duration from sysfsPaul E. McKenney2012-09-231-0/+11
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although almost everyone is well-served by the defaults, some uses of RCU benefit from shorter grace periods, while others benefit more from the greater efficiency provided by longer grace periods. Situations requiring a large number of grace periods to elapse (and wireshark startup has been called out as an example of this) are helped by lower-latency grace periods. Furthermore, in some embedded applications, people are willing to accept a small degradation in update efficiency (due to there being more of the shorter grace-period operations) in order to gain the lower latency. In contrast, those few systems with thousands of CPUs need longer grace periods because the CPU overhead of a grace period rises roughly linearly with the number of CPUs. Such systems normally do not make much use of facilities that require large numbers of grace periods to elapse, so this is a good tradeoff. Therefore, this commit allows the durations to be controlled from sysfs. There are two sysfs parameters, one named "jiffies_till_first_fqs" that specifies the delay in jiffies from the end of grace-period initialization until the first attempt to force quiescent states, and the other named "jiffies_till_next_fqs" that specifies the delay (again in jiffies) between subsequent attempts to force quiescent states. They both default to three jiffies, which is compatible with the old hard-coded behavior. At some future time, it may be possible to automatically increase the grace-period length with the number of CPUs, but we do not yet have sufficient data to do a good job. Preliminary data indicates that we should add an addiitonal jiffy to each of the delays for every 200 CPUs in the system, but more experimentation is needed. For now, the number of systems with more than 1,000 CPUs is small enough that this can be relegated to boot-time hand tuning. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Devices that can't be isolated are grouped together. This code is required for the upcoming VFIO framework. Another IOMMU-API change written by me is the introduction of domain attributes. This makes it easier to handle GART-like IOMMUs with the IOMMU-API because now the start-address and the size of the domain address space can be queried. Besides that there are a few cleanups and fixes for the NVidia Tegra IOMMU drivers and the reworked init-code for the AMD IOMMU. The latter is from my patch-set to support interrupt remapping.

Quoting removal commit af5ab277ded04bd9bc6b048c5a2f0e7d70ef0867: "Historically, Linux has tried to make the regular timer tick on the various CPUs not happen at the same time, to avoid contention on xtime_lock. Nowadays, with the tickless kernel, this contention no longer happens since time keeping and updating are done differently. In addition, this skew is actually hurting power consumption in a measurable way on many-core systems." Problems: - Contrary to the above, systems do encounter contention on both xtime_lock and RCU structure locks when the tick is synchronized. - Moderate sized RT systems suffer intolerable jitter due to the tick being synchronized. - SGI reports the same for their large systems. - Fully utilized systems reap no power saving benefit from skew removal, but do suffer from resulting induced lock contention. - 0209f649 rcu: limit rcu_node leaf-level fanout This patch was born to combat lock contention which testing showed to have been _induced by_ skew removal. Skew the tick, contention disappeared virtually completely.

First one is Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) which makes it possible for device drivers to allocate big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has booted. The main difference from the similar frameworks is the fact that CMA allows to transparently reuse the memory region reserved for the big chunk allocation as a system memory, so no memory is wasted when no big chunk is allocated. Once the alloc request is issued, the framework migrates system pages to create space for the required big chunk of physically contiguous memory. For more information one can refer to nice LWN articles: - 'A reworked contiguous memory allocator': http://lwn.net/Articles/447405/ - 'CMA and ARM': http://lwn.net/Articles/450286/ - 'A deep dive into CMA': http://lwn.net/Articles/486301/ - and the following thread with the patches and links to all previous versions: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/204 The main client for this new framework is ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The second part provides a complete redesign in ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The core implementation has been changed to use common struct dma_map_ops based infrastructure with the recent updates for new dma attributes merged in v3.4-rc2. This allows to use more than one implementation of dma-mapping calls and change/select them on the struct device basis. The first client of this new infractructure is dmabounce implementation which has been completely cut out of the core, common code. The last patch of this redesign update introduces a new, experimental implementation of dma-mapping calls on top of generic IOMMU framework. This lets ARM sub-platform to transparently use IOMMU for DMA-mapping calls if one provides required IOMMU hardware. For more information please refer to the following thread: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg175729.html The last patch merges changes from both updates and provides a resolution for the conflicts which cannot be avoided when patches have been applied on the same files (mainly arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c)."

By default a global CMA area is used, but specific devices are allowed to have their private memory areas if required (they can be created with dma_declare_contiguous() function during board initialisation). Contiguous memory areas reserved for DMA are remapped with 2-level page tables on boot. Once a buffer is requested, a low memory kernel mapping is updated to to match requested memory access type. GFP_ATOMIC allocations are performed from special pool which is created early during boot. This way remapping page attributes is not needed on allocation time. CMA has been enabled unconditionally for ARMv6+ systems.

CMA grabs memory on system boot, marks it with MIGRATE_CMA migrate type and gives back to the system. Kernel is allowed to allocate only movable pages within CMA's managed memory so that it can be used for example for page cache when DMA mapping do not use it. On dma_alloc_from_contiguous() request such pages are migrated out of CMA area to free required contiguous block and fulfill the request. This allows to allocate large contiguous chunks of memory at any time assuming that there is enough free memory available in the system.

Highlights: - first batch of hw enablement for vlv (Jesse et al) and hsw (Eugeni). pci ids are not yet added, and there's still quite a few patches to merge (mostly modesetting). To make QA easier I've decided to merge this stuff in pieces. - loads of cleanups and prep patches spurred by the above. Especially vlv is a real frankenstein chip, but also hsw is stretching our driver's code design. Expect more to come in this area for 3.5. - more gmbus fixes, cleanups and improvements by Daniel Kurtz. Again, there are more patches needed (and some already queued up), but I wanted to split this a bit for better testing. - pwrite/pread rework and retuning. This series has been in the works for a few months already and a lot of i-g-t tests have been created for it. Now it's finally ready to be merged. Note that one patch in this series touches include/pagemap.h, that patch is acked-by akpm. - reduce mappable pressure and relocation throughput improvements from Chris. - mmap offset exhaustion mitigation by Chris Wilson. - a start at figuring out which codepaths in our messy dri1/ums+gem/kms driver we actually need to support by bailing out of unsupported case. The driver now refuses to load without kms on gen6+ and disallows a few ioctls that userspace never used in certain cases. More of this will definitely come. - More decoupling of global gtt and ppgtt. - Improved dual-link lvds detection by Takashi Iwai. - Shut up the compiler + plus fix the fallout (Ben) - Inverted panel brightness handling (mostly Acer manages to break things in this way). - Small fixlets and adjustements and some minor things to help debugging. Regression-wise QA reported quite a few issues on ivb, but all of them turned out to be hw stability issues which are already fixed in drm-intel-fixes (QA runs the nightly regression tests on -next alone, without -fixes automatically merged in). There's still one issue open on snb, it looks like occlusion query writes are not quite as cache coherent as we've expected. With some of the pwrite adjustements we can now reliably hit this.

The Acer Aspire 5734Z, however, turns the backlight off at 0xFF and sets it to maximum intensity at 0. In consequence, the screen of this systems becomes dark at an early boot stage which makes it unusable. The same inversion applies to the BLC_PWM_CTL I915 register. This problem was introduced in kernel version 2.6.38 when the PCI device of this system was first supported by the i915 KMS module. This patch adds a parameter to the i915 module to enable inversion of the brightness variable (i915.invert_brightness).

They were mostly limited to 386-sx 16MHz CPU and some 486 class machines and never more than 64MB of RAM. Even the enthusiast hobbyist community seems to have dried up close to ten years ago, based on what you can find searching various websites dedicated to the relatively short lived hardware. So lets remove the support relating to CONFIG_MCA. There is no point carrying this forward, wasting cycles doing routine maintenance on it; wasting allyesconfig build time on validating it, wasting I/O on git grep'ping over it, and so on." Let's see if anybody screams. It generally has compiled, and James Bottomley pointed out that there was a MCA extension from NCR that allowed for up to 4GB of memory and PPro-class machines. So in *theory* there may be users out there. But even James (technically listed as a maintainer) doesn't actually have a system, and while Alan Cox claims to have a machine in his cellar that he offered to anybody who wants to take it off his hands, he didn't argue for keeping MCA support either. So we could bring it back. But somebody had better speak up and talk about how they have actually been using said MCA hardware with modern kernels for us to do that. And David already took the patch to delete all the networking driver code (commit a5e371f61ad3: "drivers/net: delete all code/drivers depending on CONFIG_MCA"). * 'delete-mca' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support. scsi: delete the MCA specific drivers and driver code serial: delete the MCA specific 8250 support. arm: remove ability to select CONFIG_MCA

A quick search on the internet, and you see that even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series. This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in carrying this any further into the future. One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A PCIe downstream port is a P2P bridge. Its secondary interface is a link that should lead only to device 0 (unless ARI is enabled)[1], so we don't probe for non-zero device numbers. Some Stratus ftServer systems have a PCIe downstream port (02:00.0) that leads to both an upstream port (03:00.0) and a downstream port (03:01.0), and 03:01.0 has important devices below it: [0000:02]-+-00.0-[03-3c]--+-00.0-[04-09]--... \-01.0-[0a-0d]--+-[USB] +-[NIC] +-... Previously, we didn't enumerate device 03:01.0, so USB and the network didn't work. This patch adds a DMI quirk to scan all device numbers, not just 0, below a downstream port.
