commit f045402984 upstream.
__tlb_flush_asce() should never be used if multiple asce belong to a mm.
As this function changes mm logic determining if local or global tlb
flushes will be neded, we might end up flushing only the gmap asce on all
CPUs and a follow up mm asce flushes will only flush on the local CPU,
although that asce ran on multiple CPUs.
The missing tlb flushes will provoke strange faults in user space and even
low address protections in user space, crashing the kernel.

[ Upstream commit 69eea95c48 ]
DMA addresses returned from map_page() are calculated by using an iommu
bitmap plus a start_dma offset. The size of this bitmap is based on the main
memory size. If we have more than (4 TB - start_dma) main memory, the DMA
address calculation will also produce addresses > 4 TB. Such addresses
cannot be inserted in the 3-level DMA page table, instead the entries
modulo 4 TB will be overwritten.
Fix this by restricting the iommu bitmap size to (4 TB - start_dma).
Also set zdev->end_dma to the actual end address of the usable
range, instead of the theoretical maximum as reported by the hardware,
which fixes a sanity check in dma_map() and also the IOMMU API domain
geometry aperture calculation.

commit bcf4dd5f9e upstream.
The test_fp_ctl function is used to test if a given value is a valid
floating-point control. The inline assembly in test_fp_ctl uses an
incorrect constraint for the 'orig_fpc' variable. If the compiler
chooses the same register for 'fpc' and 'orig_fpc' the test_fp_ctl()
function always returns true. This allows user space to trigger
kernel oopses with invalid floating-point control values on the
signal stack.

commit 723cacbd9d upstream.
There is a race with multi-threaded applications between context switch and
pagetable upgrade. In switch_mm() a new user_asce is built from mm->pgd and
mm->context.asce_bits, w/o holding any locks. A concurrent mmap with a
pagetable upgrade on another thread in crst_table_upgrade() could already
have set new asce_bits, but not yet the new mm->pgd. This would result in a
corrupt user_asce in switch_mm(), and eventually in a kernel panic from a
translation exception.
Fix this by storing the complete asce instead of just the asce_bits, which
can then be read atomically from switch_mm(), so that it either sees the
old value or the new value, but no mixture. Both cases are OK. Having the
old value would result in a page fault on access to the higher level memory,
but the fault handler would see the new mm->pgd, if it was a valid access
after the mmap on the other thread has completed. So as worst-case scenario
we would have a page fault loop for the racing thread until the next time
slice.
Also remove dead code and simplify the upgrade/downgrade path, there are no
upgrades from 2 levels, and only downgrades from 3 levels for compat tasks.
There are also no concurrent upgrades, because the mmap_sem is held with
down_write() in do_mmap, so the flush and table checks during upgrade can
be removed.

commit 3446c13b26 upstream.
The fork of a process with four page table levels is broken since
git commit 6252d702c5 "[S390] dynamic page tables."
All new mm contexts are created with three page table levels and
an asce limit of 4TB. If the parent has four levels dup_mmap will
add vmas to the new context which are outside of the asce limit.
The subsequent call to copy_page_range will walk the three level
page table structure of the new process with non-zero pgd and pud
indexes. This leads to memory clobbers as the pgd_index *and* the
pud_index is added to the mm->pgd pointer without a pgd_deref
in between.
The init_new_context() function is selecting the number of page
table levels for a new context. The function is used by mm_init()
which in turn is called by dup_mm() and mm_alloc(). These two are
used by fork() and exec(). The init_new_context() function can
distinguish the two cases by looking at mm->context.asce_limit,
for fork() the mm struct has been copied and the number of page
table levels may not change. For exec() the mm_alloc() function
set the new mm structure to zero, in this case a three-level page
table is created as the temporary stack space is located at
STACK_TOP_MAX = 4TB.
This fixes CVE-2016-2143.

commit 9abc2a08a7 upstream.
The kernel now always uses vector registers when available, however KVM
has special logic if support is really enabled for a guest. If support
is disabled, guest_fpregs.fregs will only contain memory for the fpu.
The kernel, however, will store vector registers into that area,
resulting in crazy memory overwrites.
Simply extending that area is not enough, because the format of the
registers also changes. We would have to do additional conversions, making
the code even more complex. Therefore let's directly use one place for
the vector/fpu registers + fpc (in kvm_run). We just have to convert the
data properly when accessing it. This makes current code much easier.
Please note that vector/fpu registers are now always stored to
vcpu->run->s.regs.vrs. Although this data is visible to QEMU and
used for migration, we only guarantee valid values to user space when
KVM_SYNC_VRS is set. As that is only the case when we have vector
register support, we are on the safe side.

forwarding as well.
- more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic
interrupt controller will have to wait for 4.5. These will let
KVM expose Hyper-V devices.
- nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for
vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster
- for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for
clflushopt, clwb, pcommit
- support for "split irqchip", i.e. LAPIC in kernel +
IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of
the hypervisor
- obligatory smattering of SMM fixes
- on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten

the kernel locks have aqcuire/release semantics. No operation done
after the lock can be "moved" before the lock and no operation before
the unlock can be moved after the unlock. But it is perfectly fine
that memory accesses which happen code wise after unlock are performed
within the critical section.
On s390x, reads are in-order with other reads (PoP section
"Storage-Operand Fetch References") and writes are in-order with
other writes (PoP section "Storage-Operand Store References"). Writes
are also in-order with reads to the same memory location (PoP section
"Storage-Operand Store References"). To other CPUs (and the channel
subsystem), reads additionally appear to be performed prior to reads or
writes that happen after them in the conceptual sequence (PoP section
"Relation between Operand Accesses").
So at least as observed by other CPUs and the channel subsystem, reads
inside the critical sections will not happen after unlock (and writes
are in-order anyway). That's exactly what we need for "RELEASE
operations" (memory-barriers.txt): "It guarantees that all memory
operations before the RELEASE operation will appear to happen before the
RELEASE operation with respect to the other components of the system."

When using systemtap it was observed that our udelay implementation is
rather suboptimal if being called from a kprobe handler installed by
systemtap.
The problem observed when a kprobe was installed on lock_acquired().
When the probe was hit the kprobe handler did call udelay, which set
up an (internal) timer and reenabled interrupts (only the clock comparator
interrupt) and waited for the interrupt.
This is an optimization to avoid that the cpu is busy looping while waiting
that enough time passes. The problem is that the interrupt handler still
does call irq_enter()/irq_exit() which then again can lead to a deadlock,
since some accounting functions may take locks as well.
If one of these locks is the same, which caused lock_acquired() to be
called, we have a nice deadlock.
This patch reworks the udelay code for the interrupts disabled case to
immediately leave the low level interrupt handler when the clock
comparator interrupt happens. That way no C code is being called and the
deadlock cannot happen anymore.

'csg' or a 'loag' instruction. For both version the cache line is fetched
exclusively, even if the bit is already set. The result is an increase in
cache traffic, for a contented lock this is a bad idea.

Use bit 2**1 of the pte and bit 2**14 of the pmd for the soft dirty
bit. The fault mechanism to do dirty tracking is already in place.

We often need to correlate an 8 bit path mask with the position
in a channel path array. Introduce and use pathmask_to_pos for
that task.

The principles of operation says:
The storage-operand fetch references of one instruction
occur after those of all preceding instructions and
before those of subsequent instructions, as observed
by other CPUs and by channel programs.
[...]
The CPU may fetch the operands of instructions before the
instructions are executed.
[...]
The CPU may delay placing results in storage.
[...]
the results of one instruction are placed in storage after
the results of all preceding instructions have been placed
in storage and before any results of the succeeding
instructions are stored, as observed by other CPUs and by
the channel subsystem.
which boils down to:
- reads are in order
- writes are in order
- reads can happen earlier
- writes can happen later
By definition (see memory-barrier.txt) read barriers orders
reads vs reads and write barriers orders writes agains writes.
but neither of these orders reads vs. writes.
That means we can implement smp_wmb,smp_rmb,wmb and rmb as
simple compiler barriers. To avoid reviewing all driver code
for correct barrier usage we keep dma_[rw]mb as serialization
for now.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.
