The address checks in the 64bit implementation of get_wchan() are
wrong in several ways:
- The lower bound of the stack is not the start of the stack
page. It's the start of the stack page plus sizeof (struct
thread_info)
- The upper bound must be:
top_of_stack - TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING - 2 * sizeof(unsigned long).
The 2 * sizeof(unsigned long) is required because the stack pointer
points at the frame pointer. The layout on the stack is: ... IP FP
... IP FP. So we need to make sure that both IP and FP are in the
bounds.
Fix the bound checks and get rid of the mix of numeric constants, u64
and unsigned long. Making all unsigned long allows us to use the same
function for 32bit as well.
Use READ_ONCE() when accessing the stack. This does not prevent a
concurrent wakeup of the task and the stack changing, but at least it
avoids TOCTOU.
Also check task state at the end of the loop. Again that does not
prevent concurrent changes, but it avoids walking for nothing.
Add proper comments while at it.

It is not safe to clear global MCi_CTL banks during CPU offline
or suspend/resume operations. These MSRs are either
thread-scoped (meaning private to a thread), or core-scoped
(private to threads in that core only), or with a socket scope:
visible and controllable from all threads in the socket.
When we offline a single CPU, clearing those MCi_CTL bits will
stop signaling for all the shared, i.e., socket-wide resources,
such as LLC, iMC, etc.
In addition, it might be possible to compromise the integrity of
an Intel Secure Guard eXtentions (SGX) system if the attacker
has control of the host system and is able to inject errors
which would be otherwise ignored when MCi_CTL bits are cleared.
Hence on SGX enabled systems, if MCi_CTL is cleared, SGX gets
disabled.

That's a call through a function pointer to regular C function that
does nothing on native boots, but that function isn't protected
against kprobes, isn't marked notrace, and is certainly not
guaranteed to preserve any registers if the compiler is feeling
perverse. This is bad news for a CLBR_NONE operation.
Of course, if everything works correctly, once paravirt ops are
patched, it gets nopped out, but what if we hit this code before
paravirt ops are patched in? This can potentially cause breakage
that is very difficult to debug.
A more subtle failure is possible here, too: if _paravirt_nop uses
the stack at all (even just to push RBP), it will overwrite the "NMI
executing" variable if it's called in the NMI prologue.
The Xen case, perhaps surprisingly, is fine, because it's already
written in asm.
Fix all of the cases that default to paravirt_nop (including
adjust_exception_frame) with a big hammer: replace paravirt_nop with
an asm function that is just a ret instruction.
The Xen case may have other problems, so document them.
This is part of a fix for some random crashes that Sasha saw.

The APIC LVTT register is MMIO mapped but the TSC_DEADLINE register is an
MSR. The write to the TSC_DEADLINE MSR is not serializing, so it's not
guaranteed that the write to LVTT has reached the APIC before the
TSC_DEADLINE MSR is written. In such a case the write to the MSR is
ignored and as a consequence the local timer interrupt never fires.
The SDM decribes this issue for xAPIC and x2APIC modes. The
serialization methods recommended by the SDM differ.
xAPIC:
"1. Memory-mapped write to LVT Timer Register, setting bits 18:17 to 10b.
2. WRMSR to the IA32_TSC_DEADLINE MSR a value much larger than current time-stamp counter.
3. If RDMSR of the IA32_TSC_DEADLINE MSR returns zero, go to step 2.
4. WRMSR to the IA32_TSC_DEADLINE MSR the desired deadline."
x2APIC:
"To allow for efficient access to the APIC registers in x2APIC mode,
the serializing semantics of WRMSR are relaxed when writing to the
APIC registers. Thus, system software should not use 'WRMSR to APIC
registers in x2APIC mode' as a serializing instruction. Read and write
accesses to the APIC registers will occur in program order. A WRMSR to
an APIC register may complete before all preceding stores are globally
visible; software can prevent this by inserting a serializing
instruction, an SFENCE, or an MFENCE before the WRMSR."
The xAPIC method is to just wait for the memory mapped write to hit
the LVTT by checking whether the MSR write has reached the hardware.
There is no reason why a proper MFENCE after the memory mapped write would
not do the same. Andi Kleen confirmed that MFENCE is sufficient for the
xAPIC case as well.
Issue MFENCE before writing to the TSC_DEADLINE MSR. This can be done
unconditionally as all CPUs which have TSC_DEADLINE also have MFENCE
support.

The recent ioapic cleanups changed the affinity setting in
setup_ioapic_dest() from a direct write to the hardware to the delayed
affinity setup via irq_set_affinity().
That results in a warning from chained_irq_exit():
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5 at kernel/irq/migration.c:32 irq_move_masked_irq
[<ffffffff810a0a88>] irq_move_masked_irq+0xb8/0xc0
[<ffffffff8103c161>] ioapic_ack_level+0x111/0x130
[<ffffffff812bbfe8>] intel_gpio_irq_handler+0x148/0x1c0
The reason is that irq_set_affinity() does not write directly to the
hardware. It marks the affinity setting as pending and executes it
from the next interrupt. The chained handler infrastructure does not
take the irq descriptor lock for performance reasons because such a
chained interrupt is not visible to any interfaces. So the delayed
affinity setting triggers the warning in irq_move_masked_irq().
Restore the old behaviour by calling the set_affinity function of the
ioapic chip in setup_ioapic_dest(). This is safe as none of the
interrupts can be on the fly at this point.

The xstate CPUID leaves enumerate where each state component is
inside the XSAVE buffer, along with the size of the entire
buffer. Our new XSAVE sanity-checking code extrapolates an
expected _total_ buffer size by looking at the last component
that it encounters.
That method requires that the highest-numbered component also
be the one with the highest offset. This is a pretty safe
assumption, but let's add some code to ensure it stays true.
To make this check work correctly, we also need to ensure we
only consider the offsets from enabled features because the
offset register (ebx) will return 0 on unsupported features.
This also means that we will preserve the -1's that we
initialized xstate_offsets/sizes[] with. That will help
find bugs.

Note: our xsaves support is currently broken and disabled. This
patch does not fix it, but it is an incremental improvement.
This might be useful to someone backporting the entire set of
XSAVES patches at some point, but it should not be backported
alone.
Ingo said he wanted something like this (bullets 2 and 3):
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150808091508.GB32641@gmail.com
There are currently two xsave buffer formats: standard and
compacted. The standard format is waht 'XSAVE' and 'XSAVEOPT'
produce while 'XSAVES' and 'XSAVEC' produce a compacted-formet
buffer. (The kernel never uses XSAVEC)
But, the XSAVES buffer *ALSO* contains "system state components"
which are never saved by a plain XSAVE. So, XSAVES has two
things that might make its buffer differently-sized from an
XSAVE-produced one.
The current code assumes that an XSAVES buffer's size is simply
the sum of the sizes of the (user) states which are supported.
This seems to work in most cases, but it is not consistent with
what the SDM says, and it breaks if we 'align' a component in
the buffer. The calculation is also unnecessary work since the
CPU *tells* us the size of the buffer directly.
This patch just reads the size of the buffer right out of the
CPUID leaf instead of trying to derive it.
But, blindly trusting the CPU like this is dangerous. We add
a verification pass in do_extra_xstate_size_checks() to ensure
that the size we calculate matches with what we see from the
hardware. When it comes down to it, we trust but verify the
CPU.

There are two concepts that have some confusing naming:
1. Extended State Component numbers (currently called
XFEATURE_BIT_*)
2. Extended State Component masks (currently called XSTATE_*)
The numbers are (currently) from 0-9. State component 3 is the
bounds registers for MPX, for instance.
But when we want to enable "state component 3", we go set a bit
in XCR0. The bit we set is 1<<3. We can check to see if a
state component feature is enabled by looking at its bit.
The current 'xfeature_bit's are at best xfeature bit _numbers_.
Calling them bits is at best inconsistent with ending the enum
list with 'XFEATURES_NR_MAX'.
This patch renames the enum to be 'xfeature'. These also
happen to be what the Intel documentation calls a "state
component".
We also want to differentiate these from the "XSTATE_*" macros.
The "XSTATE_*" macros are a mask, and we rename them to match.
These macros are reasonably widely used so this patch is a
wee bit big, but this really is just a rename.
The only non-mechanical part of this is the
s/XSTATE_EXTEND_MASK/XFEATURE_MASK_EXTEND/
We need a better name for it, but that's another patch.

The original purpose of XSTATE_RESERVE was to carve out space
to store all of the possible extended state components that
get saved with the XSAVE instruction(s).
However, we are now almost entirely dynamically allocating
the buffers we use for XSAVE by placing them at the end of
the task_struct and them sizing them at boot. The one
exception for that is the init_task.
The maximum extended state component size that we have today
is on systems with space for AVX-512 and Memory Protection
Keys: 2696 bytes. We have reserved a PAGE_SIZE buffer in
the init_task via fpregs_state->__padding.
This check ensures that even if the component sizes or
layout were changed (which we do not expect), that we will
still not overflow the init_task's buffer.
In the case that we detect we might overflow the buffer,
we completely disable XSAVE support in the kernel and try
to boot as if we had 'legacy x87 FPU' support in place.
This is a crippled state without any of the XSAVE-enabled
features (MPX, AVX, etc...). But, it at least let us
boot safely.

counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction
interface to support a "transaction type".
The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions,
i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second
transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch,
by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once.
Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags'
parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are
not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.
