commit 4105c69703cdeba76f384b901712c9397b04e9c2 upstream.
On 64-bit builds, we should not rely on "int $0x80" working (it only does if
CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y is enabled). To keep the "Set TF and check int80"
test running on 64-bit installs with CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y enabled, build
this test only if we can also build 32-bit binaries (which should be a
good approximation for that).Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski

commit 4c1baad223906943b595a887305f2e8124821dad upstream.
Running the compaction_test sometimes results in out-of-memory
failures. When I debugged this, it turned out that the code to
reset the number of hugepages to the initial value is simply
broken since we write into an open sysctl file descriptor
multiple times without seeking back to the start.Adding the lseek here fixes the problem.

commit 352909b49ba0d74929b96af6dfbefc854ab6ebb5 upstream.
This tests that the vsyscall entries do what they're expected to do.
It also confirms that attempts to read the vsyscall page behave as
expected.If changes are made to the vsyscall code or its memory map handling,
running this test in all three of vsyscall=none, vsyscall=emulate,
and vsyscall=native are helpful.(Because it's easy, this also compares the vsyscall results to their
vDSO equivalents.)Note to KAISER backporters: please test this under all three
vsyscall modes. Also, in the emulate and native modes, make sure
that test_vsyscall_64 agrees with the command line or config
option as to which mode you're in. It's quite easy to mess up
the kernel such that native mode accidentally emulates
or vice versa.Greg, etc: please backport this to all your Meltdown-patched
kernels. It'll help make sure the patches didn't regress
vsyscalls.CSigned-off-by: Andy Lutomirski

The MPX hardware data structurse are defined in a weird way: they define
their size in bytes and then union that with the type with which we want
to access them.Yes, this is weird, but it does work. But, new GCC's complain that we
are accessing the array out of bounds. Just make it a zero-sized array
so gcc will stop complaining. There was not really a bug here.Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen

[ Upstream commit 2a4d0c627f5374f365a873dea4e10ae0bb437680 ]
Kernel erases R8..R11 registers prior returning to userspace
from int80:https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/1/164
GCC can reuse these registers and doesn't expect them to change
during syscall invocation. I met this kind of bug in CRIU once
GCC 6.1 and CLANG stored local variables in those registers
and the kernel zerofied them during syscall:https://github.com/xemul/criu/commit/990d33f1a1cdd17bca6c2eb059ab3be2564f7fa2
By that reason I suggest to add those registers to clobbers
in selftests. Also, as noted by Andy - removed unneeded clobber
for flags in INT $0x80 inline asm.Signed-off-by: Dmitry Safonov

We weren't testing the .limit and .limit_in_pages fields very well.
Add more tests.This addition seems to trigger the "bits 16:19 are undefined" issue
that was fixed in an earlier patch. I think that, at least on my

commit 796a3bae2fba6810427efdb314a1c126c9490fb3 upstream.
test_execve does rather odd mount manipulations to safely create
temporary setuid and setgid executables that aren't visible to the
rest of the system. Those executables end up in the test's cwd, but
that cwd is MNT_DETACHed.The core namespace code considers MNT_DETACHed trees to belong to no
mount namespace at all and, in general, MNT_DETACHed trees are only
barely function. This interacted with commit 380cf5ba6b0a ("fs:
Treat foreign mounts as nosuid") to cause all MNT_DETACHed trees to
act as though they're nosuid, breaking the test.Fix it by just not detaching the tree. It's still in a private
mount namespace and is therefore still invisible to the rest of the
system (except via /proc, and the same nosuid logic will protect all
other programs on the system from believing in test_execve's setuid
bits).While we're at it, fix some blatant whitespace problems.

commit 65973dd3fd31151823f4b8c289eebbb3fb7e6bc0 upstream.
i386 glibc is buggy and calls the sigaction syscall incorrectly.
This is asymptomatic for normal programs, but it blows up on
programs that do evil things with segmentation. The ldt_gdt
self-test is an example of such an evil program.This doesn't appear to be a regression -- I think I just got lucky
with the uninitialized memory that glibc threw at the kernel when I
wrote the test.This hackish fix manually issues sigaction(2) syscalls to undo the
damage. Without the fix, ldt_gdt_32 segfaults; with the fix, it
passes for me.See: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21269

A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling
routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage
for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before
probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl()
and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing
the rest of the tests to not run / fail.This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS
behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress
against implementations it has seen in practice.Signed-off-by: Dan Williams

There are four cases I can see where we could end up with a NULL 'slot' in
radix_tree_next_slot(). This unit test exercises all four of them, making
sure that if in the future we have an unsafe path through
radix_tree_next_slot(), we'll catch it.Here are details on the four cases:
1) radix_tree_iter_retry() via a non-tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_slot(). In this case we currently aren't seeing a bug
because radix_tree_iter_retry() setsiter->next_index = iter->index;
which means that in in the else case in radix_tree_next_slot(), 'count' is
zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL
without ever dereferencing 'slot'.2) radix_tree_iter_retry() via tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This case was giving us NULL pointer
dereferences in testing, and was fixed with this commit:commit 3cb9185c6730 ("radix-tree: fix radix_tree_iter_retry() for tagged
iterators.")This fix doesn't explicitly check for 'slot' being NULL, though, it works
around the NULL pointer dereference by instead zeroing iter->tags in
radix_tree_iter_retry(), which makes us bail out of the if() case in
radix_tree_next_slot() before we dereference 'slot'.3) radix_tree_iter_next() via via a non-tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_slot(). This currently happens in shmem_tag_pins()
and shmem_partial_swap_usage().As with non-tagged iteration, 'count' in the else case of
radix_tree_next_slot() is zero, so we skip over the while() loop and
effectively just return NULL without ever dereferencing 'slot'.4) radix_tree_iter_next() via tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This happens in shmem_wait_for_pins().radix_tree_iter_next() zeros out iter->tags, so we end up exiting
radix_tree_next_slot() here:if (flags & RADIX_TREE_ITER_TAGGED) {
void *canon = slot;iter->tags >>= 1;
if (unlikely(!iter->tags))
return NULL;Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160815194237.25967-3-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Aside from the recently added pmem sub-division support these have
been in -next for several releases with no reported issues. The sub-
division support was included in next-20161010 with no reported
issues. It passes all unit tests including new tests for all the new
functionality below.Summary:
- PMEM sub-division support: Allow a single PMEM region to be divided
into multiple namespaces. Originally, ~2 years ago, it was thought
that partitions of a /dev/pmemX block device could handle
sub-allocations of persistent memory for different use cases. With
the decision to not support DAX mappings of raw block-devices, and
the genesis of device-dax, the need for having multiple
pmem-namespace per region has grown.- Device-DAX unified inode: In support of dynamic-resizing of a
device-dax instance the kernel arranges for all mappings of a
device-dax node to share the same inode. This allows unmap /
truncate / invalidation events to affect all instances of the
device similar to the behavior of mmap on block devices.- Hardware error scrubbing reworks: The original address-range-scrub
and badblocks tracking solution allowed clearing entries at the
individual namespace level, but it failed to clear the internal
list of media errors maintained at the bus level. The result was
that the next scrub or namespace disable/re-enable event would
restore the cleared badblocks, but now that is fixed. The v4.8
kernel introduced an auto-scrub-on-machine-check behavior to
repopulate the badblocks list. Now, in v4.9, the auto-scrub
behavior can be disabled and simply arrange for the error reported
in the machine-check to be added to the list.- DIMM health-event notification support: ACPI 6.1 defines a
notification event code that can be send to ACPI NVDIMM devices. A
poll(2) capable file descriptor for these events can be obtained
from the nmemX/nfit/flags sysfs-attribute of a libnvdimm memory
device.- Miscellaneous fixes: NVDIMM-N probe error, device-dax build error,
and a change to dedup the flush hint list to not flush the memory
controller more than necessary"* tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (39 commits)
