2016-10-22x86/boot/smp: Don't try to poke disabled/non-existent APICVille Syrjälä1-7/+9
Apparently trying to poke a disabled or non-existent APIC leads to a box that doesn't even boot. Let's not do that. No real clue if this is the right fix, but at least my P3 machine boots again.

2016-10-21arm/arm64: KVM: Map the BSS at HYPMarc Zyngier1-0/+7
When used with a compiler that doesn't implement "asm goto" (such as the AArch64 port of GCC 4.8), jump labels generate a memory access to find out about the value of the key (instead of just patching the code). The key itself is likely to be stored in the BSS. This is perfectly fine, except that we don't map the BSS at HYP, leading to an exploding kernel at the first access. The obvious fix is simply to map the BSS there (which should have been done a long while ago, but hey...).

2016-10-21arm64: KVM: Take S1 walks into account when determining S2 write faultsWill Deacon1-5/+6
The WnR bit in the HSR/ESR_EL2 indicates whether a data abort was generated by a read or a write instruction. For stage 2 data aborts generated by a stage 1 translation table walk (i.e. the actual page table access faults at EL2), the WnR bit therefore reports whether the instruction generating the walk was a load or a store, *not* whether the page table walker was reading or writing the entry. For page tables marked as read-only at stage 2 (e.g. due to KSM merging them with the tables from another guest), this could result in livelock, where a page table walk generated by a load instruction attempts to set the access flag in the stage 1 descriptor, but fails to trigger CoW in the host since only a read fault is reported. This patch modifies the arm64 kvm_vcpu_dabt_iswrite function to take into account stage 2 faults in stage 1 walks. Since DBM cannot be disabled at EL2 for CPUs that implement it, we assume that these faults are always causes by writes, avoiding the livelock situation at the expense of occasional, spurious CoWs. We could, in theory, do a bit better by checking the guest TCR configuration and inspecting the page table to see why the PTE faulted. However, I doubt this is measurable in practice, and the threat of livelock is real.

2016-10-21kernel/irq: Export irq_set_parent()Sudip Mukherjee1-0/+1
The TPS65217 driver grew interrupt support which uses irq_set_parent(). While it's not yet clear why this is used in the first place, building the driver as a module fails with: ERROR: ".irq_set_parent" [drivers/mfd/tps65217.ko] undefined! The correctness of the driver change is still investigated, but for now it's less trouble to export irq_set_parent() than dealing with the build wreckage.

2016-10-21target/tcm_fc: use CPU affinity for responsesHannes Reinecke1-1/+1
The libfc stack assigns exchange IDs based on the CPU the request was received on, so we need to send the responses via the same CPU. Otherwise the send logic gets confuses and responses will be delayed, causing exchange timeouts on the initiator side.

target_sess_cmd_list_waiting() might hit on a condition where the kref for the command is already 0, but the destructor has not been called yet (or is stuck in waiting for a spin lock). Rather than leaving the command on the list we should explicitly remove it to avoid race issues later on.

2016-10-20Revert "clocksource/drivers/timer_sun5i: Replace code by clocksource_mmio_init"Chen-Yu Tsai1-2/+14
struct clocksource is also used by the clk notifier callback, to unregister and re-register the clocksource with a different clock rate. clocksource_mmio_init does not pass back a pointer to the struct used, and the clk notifier callback assumes that the struct clocksource in struct sun5i_timer_clksrc is valid. This results in a kernel NULL pointer dereference when the hstimer clock is changed: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004 [<c03a4678>] (clocksource_unbind) from [<c03a46d4>] (clocksource_unregister+0x2c/0x44) [<c03a46d4>] (clocksource_unregister) from [<c0a6f350>] (sun5i_rate_cb_clksrc+0x34/0x3c) [<c0a6f350>] (sun5i_rate_cb_clksrc) from [<c035ea50>] (notifier_call_chain+0x44/0x84) [<c035ea50>] (notifier_call_chain) from [<c035edc0>] (__srcu_notifier_call_chain+0x44/0x60) [<c035edc0>] (__srcu_notifier_call_chain) from [<c035edf4>] (srcu_notifier_call_chain+0x18/0x20) [<c035edf4>] (srcu_notifier_call_chain) from [<c0670174>] (__clk_notify+0x70/0x7c) [<c0670174>] (__clk_notify) from [<c06702c0>] (clk_propagate_rate_change+0xa4/0xc4) [<c06702c0>] (clk_propagate_rate_change) from [<c0670288>] (clk_propagate_rate_change+0x6c/0xc4) Revert the commit for now. clocksource_mmio_init can be made to pass back a pointer, but the code churn and usage of an inner struct might not be worth it.

2016-10-20clocksource: Add J-Core timer/clocksource driverRich Felker4-0/+261
At the hardware level, the J-Core PIT is integrated with the interrupt controller, but it is represented as its own device and has an independent programming interface. It provides a 12-bit countdown timer, which is not presently used, and a periodic timer. The interval length for the latter is programmable via a 32-bit throttle register whose units are determined by a bus-period register. The periodic timer is used to implement both periodic and oneshot clock event modes; in oneshot mode the interrupt handler simply disables the timer as soon as it fires. Despite its device tree node representing an interrupt for the PIT, the actual irq generated is programmable, not hard-wired. The driver is responsible for programming the PIT to generate the hardware irq number that the DT assigns to it. On SMP configurations, J-Core provides cpu-local instances of the PIT; no broadcast timer is needed. This driver supports the creation of the necessary per-cpu clock_event_device instances. A nanosecond-resolution clocksource is provided using the J-Core "RTC" registers, which give a 64-bit seconds count and 32-bit nanoseconds that wrap every second. The driver converts these to a full-range 32-bit nanoseconds count.
