[ Upstream commit 490fc053865c9cc40f1085ef8a5504f5341f79d2 ]

Like vm_area_dup(), it initializes the anon_vma_chain head, and the
basic mm pointer.

The rest of the fields end up being different for different users,
although the plan is to also initialize the 'vm_ops' field to a dummy
entry.

[ Upstream commit 3928d4f5ee37cdc523894f6e549e6aae521d8980 ]

The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management
objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere,
ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and
kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields.

We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified
initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least
have basic allocation functions.

Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the
kmem_cache_*() calls.  This is a purely mechanical conversion:

    # new vma:
    kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -&gt; vm_area_alloc()

    # copy old vma
    kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -&gt; vm_area_dup(old)

    # free vma
    kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -&gt; vm_area_free(vma)

to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function
isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization
alone).

[ Upstream commit a5fb9fb023a1435f2b42bccd7f547560f3a21dc3 ]

When testing the R-Car PCIe driver on the Condor board, if the PCIe PHY
driver was left disabled, the kernel crashed with this BUG:

It turned out that pci_remap_iospace() wasn't undone when the driver's
probe failed, and since devm_phy_optional_get() returned -EPROBE_DEFER,
the probe was retried, finally causing the BUG due to trying to remap
already remapped pages.

Introduce the devm_pci_remap_iospace() managed API and replace the
pci_remap_iospace() call with it to fix the bug.

isn't working for him. Because of the following race:

&gt;
&gt;
&gt; SET Running

Furthermore, Oleg noticed that the whole scheduler TASK_PARKED
handling is buggered because the TASK_DEAD thing is done with
preemption disabled, the current code can still complete early on
preemption :/

So basically revert that earlier fix and go with a variant of the
alternative mentioned in the commit. Promote TASK_PARKED to special
state to avoid the store-store issue on task-&gt;state leading to the
WARN in kthread_unpark() -&gt; __kthread_bind().

But in addition, add wait_task_inactive() to kthread_park() to ensure
the task really is PARKED when we return from kthread_park(). This
avoids the whole kthread still gets migrated nonsense -- although it
would be really good to get this done differently.

commit bc2d8d262cba5736332cbc866acb11b1c5748aa9 upstream

Josh reported that the late SMT evaluation in cpu_smt_state_init() sets
cpu_smt_control to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED in case that 'nosmt' was supplied
on the kernel command line as it cannot differentiate between SMT disabled
by BIOS and SMT soft disable via 'nosmt'. That wreckages the state and
makes the sysfs interface unusable.

Rework this so that during bringup of the non boot CPUs the availability of
SMT is determined in cpu_smt_allowed(). If a newly booted CPU is not a
'primary' thread then set the local cpu_smt_available marker and evaluate
this explicitely right after the initial SMP bringup has finished.

SMT evaulation on x86 is a trainwreck as the firmware has all the
information _before_ booting the kernel, but there is no interface to query
it.

commit fee0aede6f4739c87179eca76136f83210953b86 upstream

The CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED state is set (if the processor does not support
SMT) when the sysfs SMT control file is initialized.

That was fine so far as this was only required to make the output of the
control file correct and to prevent writes in that case.

With the upcoming l1tf command line parameter, this needs to be set up
before the L1TF mitigation selection and command line parsing happens.

The L1TF mitigation will gain a commend line parameter which allows to set
a combination of hypervisor mitigation and SMT control.

Expose cpu_smt_disable() so the command line parser can tweak SMT settings.

<content type='text'>
commit 05736e4ac13c08a4a9b1ef2de26dd31a32cbee57 upstream

Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT.

The command line options are:

 'nosmt':	Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them

 'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration
 		via MP table and ACPI/MADT.

The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write):

 'on':		 SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined
 'off':		 SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated
 		 cannot be onlined
 'forceoff':	 SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control
 		 file are rejected.
 'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU

The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This
can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime.

The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to
'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime.

When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online
secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread
later on are rejected.

When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary
threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -&gt; 'on' transition does not
automatically online the secondary threads.

When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as
setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to
the control file are rejected.

When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file
are rejected.
