Short story: Exception handlers used by some copy_to_user() and
copy_from_user() functions do not diligently clean up floating point
register usage, and this can result in a user process seeing invalid
values in floating point registers. This sometimes makes the process
fail.Long story: Several cpu-specific (NG4, NG2, U1, U3) memcpy functions
use floating point registers and VIS alignaddr/faligndata to
accelerate data copying when source and dest addresses don't align
well. Linux uses a lazy scheme for saving floating point registers; It
is not done upon entering the kernel since it's a very expensive
operation. Rather, it is done only when needed. If the kernel ends up
not using FP regs during the course of some trap or system call, then
it can return to user space without saving or restoring them.The various memcpy functions begin their FP code with VISEntry (or a
variation thereof), which saves the FP regs. They conclude their FP
code with VISExit (or a variation) which essentially marks the FP regs
"clean", ie, they contain no unsaved values. fprs.FPRS_FEF is turned
off so that a lazy restore will be triggered when/if the user process
accesses floating point regs again.The bug is that the user copy variants of memcpy, copy_from_user() and
copy_to_user(), employ an exception handling mechanism to detect faults
when accessing user space addresses, and when this handler is invoked,
an immediate return from the function is forced, and VISExit is not
executed, thus leaving the fprs register in an indeterminate state,
but often with fprs.FPRS_FEF set and one or more dirty bits. This
results in a return to user space with invalid values in the FP regs,
and since fprs.FPRS_FEF is on, no lazy restore occurs.This bug affects copy_to_user() and copy_from_user() for NG4, NG2,
U3, and U1. All are fixed by using a new exception handler for those
loads and stores that are done during the time between VISEnter and
VISExit.n.b. In NG4memcpy, the problematic code can be triggered by a copy
size greater than 128 bytes and an unaligned source address. This bug
is known to be the cause of random user process memory corruptions
while perf is running with the callgraph option (ie, perf record -g).
This occurs because perf uses copy_from_user() to read user stacks,
and may fault when it follows a stack frame pointer off to an
invalid page. Validation checks on the stack address just obscure
the underlying problem.Signed-off-by: Rob Gardner

There have been several reports of random processes being killed with
a bus error or segfault during userspace stack walking in perf. One
of the root causes of this problem is an asynchronous modification to
thread_info fault_address and fault_code, which stems from a perf
counter interrupt arriving during kernel processing of a "benign"
fault, such as a TSB miss. Since perf_callchain_user() invokes
copy_from_user() to read user stacks, a fault is not only possible,
but probable. Validity checks on the stack address merely cover up the
problem and reduce its frequency.The solution here is to save and restore fault_address and fault_code
in perf_callchain_user() so that the benign fault handler is not
disturbed by a perf interrupt.Signed-off-by: Rob Gardner

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller -
When an interrupt (such as a perf counter interrupt) is delivered
while executing in user space, the trap entry code puts ASI_AIUS in
%asi so that copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() will access the
correct memory. But if a perf counter interrupt is delivered while the
cpu is already executing in kernel space, then the trap entry code
will put ASI_P in %asi, and this will prevent copy_from_user() from
reading any useful stack data in either of the perf_callchain_user_X
functions, and thus no user callgraph data will be collected for this
sample period. An additional problem is that a fault is guaranteed
to occur, and though it will be silently covered up, it wastes time
and could perturb state.In perf_callchain_user(), we ensure that %asi contains ASI_AIUS
because we know for a fact that the subsequent calls to
copy_from_user() are intended to read the user's stack.[ Use get_fs()/set_fs() -DaveM ]

Enabling CPUFreq support for Tegra124 Chromebooks is causing the Tegra124
to hang when resuming from suspend.When CPUFreq is enabled, the CPU clock is changed from the PLLX clock to
the DFLL clock during kernel boot. When resuming from suspend the CPU
clock is temporarily changed back to the PLLX clock before switching back
to the DFLL. If the DFLL is operating at a much lower frequency than the
PLLX when we enter suspend, and so the CPU voltage rail is at a voltage
too low for the CPUs to operate at the PLLX frequency, then the device
will hang.Please note that the PLLX is used in the resume sequence to switch the CPU
clock from the very slow 32K clock to a faster clock during early resume
to speed up the resume sequence before the DFLL is resumed.Ideally, we should fix this by setting the suspend frequency so that it
matches the PLLX frequency, however, that would be a bigger change. For
now simply disable CPUFreq support for Tegra124 Chromebooks to avoid the
hang when resuming from suspend.Fixes: 9a0baee960a7 ("ARM: tegra: Enable CPUFreq support for Tegra124

Conversion of MTRRs to ranges used the maxphyaddr from the boot CPU.
This is wrong, because var_mtrr_range's mask variable then is discontiguous
(like FF00FFFF000, where the first run of 0s corresponds to the bits
between host and guest maxphyaddr). Instead always set up the masks
to be full 64-bit values---we know that the reserved bits at the top
are zero, and we can restore them when reading the MSR. This way
var_mtrr_range gets a mask that just works.Fixes: a13842dc668b40daef4327294a6d3bdc8bd30276

instructions being emitted by the assembler when expanding
pseudo-instructions. For example the "move" instruction can legitimately
be expanded to a "daddu". This causes problems when the kernel is run on

When EVA is in use, __copy_from_user() was unconditionally using the EVA
instructions to read the user address space, however this can also be
used for kernel access. If the address isn't a valid user address it
will cause an address error or TLB exception, and if it is then user
memory may be read instead of kernel memory.For example in the following stack trace from Linux v3.10 (changes since
then will prevent this particular one still happening) kernel_sendmsg()
set the user address limit to KERNEL_DS, and tcp_sendmsg() goes on to
use __copy_from_user() with a kernel address in KSeg0.[] __copy_fromuser_common+0x10c/0x254

The strlen_user() function calls __strlen_kernel_asm in both branches of
the eva_kernel_access() conditional. For EVA it should be calling
__strlen_user_eva for user accesses, otherwise it will load from the
kernel address space instead of the user address space, and the access
checking will likely be ineffective at preventing it due to EVA's
overlapping user and kernel address spaces.This was found after extending the test_user_copy module to cover user
string access functions, which gave the following error with EVA:test_user_copy: illegal strlen_user passed
Fortunately the use of strlen_user() has been all but eradicated from
the mainline kernel, so only out of tree modules could be affected.Fixes: e3a9b07a9caf ("MIPS: asm: uaccess: Add EVA support for str*_user operations")

On parisc syscalls which are interrupted by signals sometimes failed to
restart and instead returned -ENOSYS which in the worst case lead to
userspace crashes.
A similiar problem existed on MIPS and was fixed by commit e967ef02
("MIPS: Fix restart of indirect syscalls").On parisc the current syscall restart code assumes that all syscall
callers load the syscall number in the delay slot of the ble
instruction. That's how it is e.g. done in the unistd.h header file:
ble 0x100(%sr2, %r0)
ldi #syscall_nr, %r20
Because of that assumption the current code never restored %r20 before
returning to userspace.This assumption is at least not true for code which uses the glibc
syscall() function, which instead uses this syntax:
ble 0x100(%sr2, %r0)
copy regX, %r20
where regX depend on how the compiler optimizes the code and register
usage.This patch fixes this problem by adding code to analyze how the syscall
number is loaded in the delay branch and - if needed - copy the syscall
number to regX prior returning to userspace for the syscall restart.Signed-off-by: Helge Deller
