[ Upstream commit d564fa1ff19e893e2971d66e5c8f49dc1cdc8ffc ]

Commit c1d55d50139b ("asm-generic/io.h: Fix sparse warnings on
big-endian architectures") missed fixing the 64-bit accessors.

Arnd explains in the attached link why the casts are necessary, even if
__raw_readq() and __raw_writeq() do not take endian-specific types.

<title>arch: fix broken BuildID for arm64 and riscv</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 99cb0d917ffa1ab628bb67364ca9b162c07699b1 upstream.

Dennis Gilmore reports that the BuildID is missing in the arm64 vmlinux
since commit 994b7ac1697b ("arm64: remove special treatment for the
link order of head.o").

The issue is that the type of .notes section, which contains the BuildID,
changed from NOTES to PROGBITS.

Ard Biesheuvel figured out that whichever object gets linked first gets
to decide the type of a section. The PROGBITS type is the result of the
compiler emitting .note.GNU-stack as PROGBITS rather than NOTE.

While Ard provided a fix for arm64, I want to fix this globally because
the same issue is happening on riscv since commit 2348e6bf4421 ("riscv:
remove special treatment for the link order of head.o"). This problem
will happen in general for other architectures if they start to drop
unneeded entries from scripts/head-object-list.txt.

Discard .note.GNU-stack in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h.

[Tom: stable backport 5.15.y, 5.10.y, 5.4.y]

Though the above "Fixes:" commits are not in this kernel, the conditions
which lead to a missing Build ID in arm64 vmlinux are similar.

Evidence points to these conditions:
1. ld version &gt; 2.36 (exact binutils commit documented in a494398bde27)
2. first object which gets linked (head.o) has a PROGBITS .note.GNU-stack segment

These conditions can be observed when:
- 5.15.60+ OR 5.10.136+ OR 5.4.210+
- AND ld version &gt; 2.36
- AND arch=arm64
- AND CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y

There are notable differences in the vmlinux elf files produced
before(bad) and after(good) applying this series.

Good: p_type:PT_NOTE segment exists.
 Bad: p_type:PT_NOTE segment is missing.

Good: sh_name_str:.notes section has sh_type:SHT_NOTE
 Bad: sh_name_str:.notes section has sh_type:SHT_PROGBITS

`readelf -n` (as of v2.40) searches for Build Id
by processing only the very first note in sh_type:SHT_NOTE sections.

This was previously bisected to the stable backport of 0d362be5b142.
Follow-up experiments were discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221221235413.xaisboqmr7dkqwn6@oracle.com/
which strongly hints at condition 2.

commit 2ba99c5e08812494bc57f319fb562f527d9bacd8 upstream.

Since commit 70cbc3cc78a99 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP
collapse"), the lockless_pages_from_mm() fastpath rechecks the pmd_t to
ensure that the page table was not removed by khugepaged in between.

However, lockless_pages_from_mm() still requires that the page table is
not concurrently freed.  Fix it by sending IPIs (if the architecture uses
semi-RCU-style page table freeing) before freeing/reusing page tables.

Commit d4c639990036 ("vmlinux.lds.h: Avoid orphan section with !SMP")
fixed an orphan section warning by adding the '.data..decrypted' section
to the linker script under the PERCPU_DECRYPTED_SECTION define but that
placement introduced a panic with !SMP, as the percpu sections are not
instantiated with that configuration so attempting to access variables
defined with DEFINE_PER_CPU_DECRYPTED() will result in a page fault.

Move the '.data..decrypted' section to the DATA_MAIN define so that the
variables in it are properly instantiated at boot time with
CONFIG_SMP=n.

<title>asm-generic: sections: refactor memory_intersects</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c60ae878782db483918eca4b398a9c8f076aed06</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 0c7d7cc2b4fe2e74ef8728f030f0f1674f9f6aee upstream.

There are two problems with the current code of memory_intersects:

First, it doesn't check whether the region (begin, end) falls inside the
region (virt, vend), that is (virt &lt; begin &amp;&amp; vend &gt; end).

The second problem is if vend is equal to begin, it will return true but
this is wrong since vend (virt + size) is not the last address of the
memory region but (virt + size -1) is.  The wrong determination will
trigger the misreporting when the function check_for_illegal_area calls
memory_intersects to check if the dma region intersects with stext region.

The misreporting is as below (stext is at 0x80100000):
 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 77 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1073 check_for_illegal_area+0x130/0x168

Refactor memory_intersects to fix the two problems above.

Before the 1d7db834a027e ("dma-debug: use memory_intersects()
directly"), memory_intersects is called only by printk_late_init:

printk_late_init -&gt; init_section_intersects -&gt;memory_intersects.

There were few places where memory_intersects was called.

When commit 1d7db834a027e ("dma-debug: use memory_intersects()
directly") was merged and CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled, the DMA
subsystem uses it to check for an illegal area and the calltrace above
is triggered.

<title>locking/atomic: Make test_and_*_bit() ordered on failure</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 415d832497098030241605c52ea83d4e2cfa7879 upstream.

These operations are documented as always ordered in
include/asm-generic/bitops/instrumented-atomic.h, and producer-consumer
type use cases where one side needs to ensure a flag is left pending
after some shared data was updated rely on this ordering, even in the
failure case.

This is the case with the workqueue code, which currently suffers from a
reproducible ordering violation on Apple M1 platforms (which are
notoriously out-of-order) that ends up causing the TTY layer to fail to
deliver data to userspace properly under the right conditions.  This
change fixes that bug.

Change the documentation to restrict the "no order on failure" story to
the _lock() variant (for which it makes sense), and remove the
early-exit from the generic implementation, which is what causes the
missing barrier semantics in that case.  Without this, the remaining
atomic op is fully ordered (including on ARM64 LSE, as of recent
versions of the architecture spec).

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 697a1d44af8ba0477ee729e632f4ade37999249a ]

tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry only considers PMD_SIZE and PUD_SIZE when
updating the mmu_gather structure.

Unfortunately on arm64 there are two additional huge page sizes that
need to be covered: CONT_PTE_SIZE and CONT_PMD_SIZE. Where an end-user
attempts to employ contiguous huge pages, a VM_BUG_ON can be experienced
due to the fact that the tlb structure hasn't been correctly updated by
the relevant tlb_flush_p.._range() call from tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry.

This patch adds inequality logic to the generic implementation of
tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry s.t. CONT_PTE_SIZE and CONT_PMD_SIZE are
effectively covered on arm64. Also, as well as ptes, pmds and puds;
p4ds are now considered too.

<content type='text'>
commit 848378812e40152abe9b9baf58ce2004f76fb988 upstream.

A recent change in LLVM causes module_{c,d}tor sections to appear when
CONFIG_K{A,C}SAN are enabled, which results in orphan section warnings
because these are not handled anywhere:

ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.asan.module_ctor) is being placed in '.text.asan.module_ctor'
ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.asan.module_dtor) is being placed in '.text.asan.module_dtor'
ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.tsan.module_ctor) is being placed in '.text.tsan.module_ctor'

Fangrui explains: "the function asan.module_ctor has the SHF_GNU_RETAIN
flag, so it is in a separate section even with -fno-function-sections
(default)".

Place them in the TEXT_TEXT section so that these technologies continue
to work with the newer compiler versions. All of the KASAN and KCSAN
KUnit tests continue to pass after this change.

[ Upstream commit f1a0a376ca0c4ef1fc3d24e3e502acbb5b795674 ]

As pointed out by commit

  de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")

init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.

As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().

Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -&gt; idle_init().

Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

  @begone@
  @@

  -preempt_disable();
  ...
  cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

commit d4c6399900364facd84c9e35ce1540b6046c345f upstream.

With x86_64_defconfig and the following configs, there is an orphan
section warning:

CONFIG_SMP=n
CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y
CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST=y
CONFIG_KVM=y
CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y

ld: warning: orphan section `.data..decrypted' from `arch/x86/kernel/cpu/vmware.o' being placed in section `.data..decrypted'
ld: warning: orphan section `.data..decrypted' from `arch/x86/kernel/kvm.o' being placed in section `.data..decrypted'

These sections are created with DEFINE_PER_CPU_DECRYPTED, which
ultimately turns into __PCPU_ATTRS, which in turn has a section
attribute with a value of PER_CPU_BASE_SECTION + the section name. When
CONFIG_SMP is not set, the base section is .data and that is not
currently handled in any linker script.

Add .data..decrypted to PERCPU_DECRYPTED_SECTION, which is included in
PERCPU_INPUT -&gt; PERCPU_SECTION, which is include in the x86 linker
script when either CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_SMP is unset, taking care of
the warning.
