The most immediate effect of this on a PV guest is that if 'stack_page = __get_free_page()' returns a non-zeroed-out page the hypervisor will refuse to use it for a page table (which it shouldn't be anyway). This will result in warnings by both Xen and Linux. More importantly, a subsequent write to that page (again, by a PV guest) is likely to result in fatal page fault.

Because we called set_cyc2ns_scale() from the time_cpufreq_notifier() unconditionally, it gets called multiple times for each freq change, instead of only the once, when the tsc_khz value actually changes. Because it gets called more than once, we run out of cyc2ns data slots and stall, waiting for a free one, but because we're half way offline, there's no consumers to free slots. By placing the call inside the condition that actually changes tsc_khz we avoid superfluous calls and avoid the problem.

For example, we use external NMI to make system panic to get crash dump, but in this case, the external NMI is falsely handled do to the issue. This commit deals with the issue simply by ignoring CondChgd bit. Here is explanation in detail. On x86 NMI watchdog uses performance monitoring feature to periodically signal NMI each time performance counter gets overflowed. intel_pmu_handle_irq() is called as a NMI_LOCAL handler from a NMI handler of NMI watchdog, perf_event_nmi_handler(). It identifies an owner of a given NMI by looking at overflow status bits in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR. If some of the bits are set, then it handles the given NMI as its own NMI. The problem is that the intel_pmu_handle_irq() doesn't distinguish CondChgd bit from other bits. Unlike the other status bits, CondChgd bit doesn't represent overflow status for performance counters. Thus, CondChgd bit cannot be thought of as a mark indicating a given NMI is NMI watchdog's. As a result, if CondChgd bit is set, any NMI is falsely handled by the NMI handler of NMI watchdog. Also, if type of the falsely handled NMI is either NMI_UNKNOWN, NMI_SERR or NMI_IO_CHECK, the corresponding action is never performed until CondChgd bit is cleared. I noticed this behavior on systems with Ivy Bridge processors: Intel Xeon CPU E5-2630 v2 and Intel Xeon CPU E7-8890 v2. On both systems, CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR has already been set in the beginning at boot. Then the CondChgd bit is immediately cleared by next wrmsr to MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR and appears to remain 0. On the other hand, on older processors such as Nehalem, Xeon E7540, CondChgd bit is not set in the beginning at boot. I'm not sure about exact behavior of CondChgd bit, in particular when this bit is set. Although I read Intel System Programmer's Manual to figure out that, the descriptions I found are: In 18.9.1: "The MSR_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR also provides a ¡sticky bit¢ to indicate changes to the state of performancmonitoring hardware" In Table 35-2 IA-32 Architectural MSRs 63 CondChg: status bits of this register has changed. These are different from the bahviour I see on the actual system as I explained above. At least, I think ignoring CondChgd bit should be enough for NMI watchdog perspective.

That is very much part of why it's faster than 'iret'. Normally that isn't a problem, because the normal ptrace() interface catches the process using the signal handler infrastructure, which always returns with an iret. However, some paths can get caught using ptrace_event() instead of the signal path, and for those we need to make sure that we aren't going to return to user space using 'sysret'. Otherwise the modifications that may have been done to the register set by the tracer wouldn't necessarily take effect. Fix it by forcing IRET path by setting TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME from arch_ptrace_stop_needed() which is invoked from ptrace_stop().

It turns out that removing the section headers from the VDSO breaks gdb, so this puts back most of them. A very simple typo broke rt_sigreturn on some versions of glibc, with obviously disastrous results. The rest is pretty much fixes for the corresponding fallout. The EFI fixes fixes an arithmetic overflow on 32-bit systems and quiets some build warnings. Finally, when invoking an invalid system call number on x86-32, we bypass a bunch of handling, which can make the audit code oops" * 'x86/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: efi-pstore: Fix an overflow on 32-bit builds x86/vdso: Error out in vdso2c if DT_RELA is present x86/vdso: Move DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING into the vdso makefile x86_32, signal: Fix vdso rt_sigreturn x86_32, entry: Do syscall exit work on badsys (CVE-2014-4508) x86/vdso: Create .build-id links for unstripped vdso files x86/vdso: Remove some redundant in-memory section headers x86/vdso: Improve the fake section headers x86/vdso2c: Use better macros for ELF bitness x86/vdso: Discard the __bug_table section efi: Fix compiler warnings (unused, const, type)

Undefined symbols in the vdso would fail if accessed at runtime, and certain implementation errors (e.g. branch profiling or incorrect symbol visibilities) could result in data access through the GOT that requires relocations. This could be as simple as: extern char foo; return foo; Without some kind of visibility control, the compiler would assume that foo could be interposed at load time and would generate a relocation. x86-64 and x32 (as opposed to i386) use explicit-addent (RELA) instead of implicit-addent (REL) relocations for data access, and vdso2c forgot to detect those. Whether these bad relocations would actually fail at runtime depends on what the linker sticks in the unrelocated references. Nonetheless, these relocations have no business existing in the vDSO and should be fixed rather than silently ignored. This error could trigger on some configurations due to branch profiling. The previous patch fixed that.

Branch profiling depends on a bunch of kernel-internal symbols and generates extra output sections, none of which are useful or functional in the vDSO. It's currently turned off for vclock_gettime.c, but vgetcpu.c also triggers branch profiling, so just turn it off in the makefile. This fixes the build on some configurations: the vdso could contain undefined symbols, and the fake section table overflowed due to ftrace's added sections.

This is useful for testing, but kernel RPM builds will probably want to manually delete these symlinks or otherwise do something sensible when they strip the vdso/*.so files. If ld does not support --build-id, then the symlinks will not be created. Note that kernel packagers that use vdso_install may need to adjust their packaging scripts to accomdate this change. For example, Fedora's scripts create build-id symlinks themselves in a different location, so the spec should probably be updated to remove the symlinks created by make vdso_install.

While we're at it, rather than aligning the actual executable text, just shove some unused-at-runtime data in between real data and text. My vdso image is still above 4k, but I'm disinclined to try to trim it harder for 3.16. For future trimming, I suspect that these sections could be moved to later in the file and dropped from the in-memory image: .gnu.version and .gnu.version_d (this may lose versions in gdb) .eh_frame (should be harmless) .eh_frame_hdr (I'm not really sure) .hash (AFAIK nothing needs this section header) Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/2e96d0c49016ea6d026a614ae645e93edd325961.1403129369.git.luto@amacapital.net Signed-off-by: H.

We're also breaking the rules: section 0 is supposed to be SHT_NULL. Fix these problems by building a better fake section table. While we're at it, we might as well let buggy Go versions keep working well by giving the SHT_DYNSYM entry the correct size. This is a bit unfortunate: it adds quite a bit of size to the vdso image. If/when binutils improves and the improved versions become widespread, it would be worth considering dropping most of this.

This was broken by checkin: 6f121e548f83 x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time C The filenames are different now, so update the Makefile to cope. This still installs the 64-bit vdso as vdso64.so. We believe this will be okay, as the only known user is a patched gdb which is known to use build-ids, but if it turns out to be a problem we may have to add a link.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Go runtime has a buggy vDSO parser that currently segfaults. This writes an empty SHT_DYNSYM entry that causes Go's runtime to malfunction by thinking that the vDSO is empty rather than malfunctioning by running off the end and segfaulting. This affects x86-64 only as far as we know, so we do not need this for the i386 and x32 vdsos.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One final use of the macros from <endian.h> which are not available on older system. In this case we had one sole case of *writing* a littleendian number, but the number is SHN_UNDEF which is the constant zero, so rather than dealing with the general case of littleendian puts here, just document that the constant is zero and be done with it.

The patches should resolve the problems with cpu hotplug and irq relocation, however, there is always a possibility that a bug still exists. The big problem with debugging these irq reassignments is that the cpu down completes and then we get random stack traces from drivers for which irqs have not been properly assigned to a new cpu. The stack traces are a mix of storage, network, and other kernel subsystem (I once saw the serial port stop working ...) warnings and failures. The problem with these failures is that they are difficult to diagnose. There is no warning in the cpu hotplug down path to indicate that an IRQ has failed to be assigned to a new cpu, and all we are left with is a stack trace from a driver, or a non-functional device. If we had some information on the console debugging these situations would be much easier; after all we can map an IRQ to a device by simply using lspci or /proc/interrupts. The current code, fixup_irqs(), which migrates IRQs from the down'd cpu and is called close to the end of the cpu down path, calls chip->set_irq_affinity which eventually calls __assign_irq_vector(). Errors are not propogated back from this function call and this results in silent irq relocation failures. This patch fixes this issue by returning the error codes up the call stack and prints out a warning if there is a relocation failure.
