commit 17dbca119312b4e8173d4e25ff64262119fcef38 upstream

L1TF core kernel workarounds are cheap and normally always enabled, However
they still should be reported in sysfs if the system is vulnerable or
mitigated. Add the necessary CPU feature/bug bits.

- Extend the existing checks for Meltdowns to determine if the system is
  vulnerable. All CPUs which are not vulnerable to Meltdown are also not
  vulnerable to L1TF

- Check for 32bit non PAE and emit a warning as there is no practical way
  for mitigation due to the limited physical address bits

- If the system has more than MAX_PA/2 physical memory the invert page
  workarounds don't protect the system against the L1TF attack anymore,
  because an inverted physical address will also point to valid
  memory. Print a warning in this case and report that the system is
  vulnerable.

Add a function which returns the PFN limit for the L1TF mitigation, which
will be used in follow up patches for sanity and range checks.

[ tglx: Renamed the CPU feature bit to L1TF_PTEINV ]

<title>driver core: Partially revert "driver core: correct device's shutdown order"</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 722e5f2b1eec7de61117b7c0a7914761e3da2eda upstream.

Commit 52cdbdd49853 (driver core: correct device's shutdown order)
introduced a regression by breaking device shutdown on some systems.

Namely, the devices_kset_move_last() call in really_probe() added by
that commit is a mistake as it may cause parents to follow children
in the devices_kset list which then causes shutdown to fail.  For
example, if a device has children before really_probe() is called
for it (which is not uncommon), that call will cause it to be
reordered after the children in the devices_kset list and the
ordering of that list will not reflect the correct device shutdown
order any more.

Also it causes the devices_kset list to be constantly reordered
until all drivers have been probed which is totally pointless
overhead in the majority of cases and it only covered an issue
with system shutdown, while system-wide suspend/resume potentially
had the same issue on the affected platforms (which was not covered).

Moreover, the shutdown issue originally addressed by the change in
really_probe() made by commit 52cdbdd49853 is not present in 4.18-rc
any more, since dra7 started to use the sdhci-omap driver which
doesn't disable any regulators during shutdown, so the really_probe()
part of commit 52cdbdd49853 can be safely reverted.  [The original
issue was related to the omap_hsmmc driver used by dra7 previously.]

For the above reasons, revert the really_probe() modifications made
by commit 52cdbdd49853.

The other code changes made by commit 52cdbdd49853 are useful and
they need not be reverted.

<title>PM / core: Fix supplier device runtime PM usage counter imbalance</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 47e5abfb546a3ace23a77453dc2e9db92704c5ac upstream.

If a device link is added via device_link_add() by the driver of the
link's consumer device, the supplier's runtime PM usage counter is
going to be dropped by the pm_runtime_put_suppliers() call in
driver_probe_device().  However, in that case it is not incremented
unless the supplier driver is already present and the link is not
stateless.  That leads to a runtime PM usage counter imbalance for
the supplier device in a few cases.

To prevent that from happening, bump up the supplier runtime
PM usage counter in device_link_add() for all links with the
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME flag set that are added at the consumer probe
time.  Use pm_runtime_get_noresume() for that as the callers of
device_link_add() who want the supplier to be resumed by it are
expected to pass DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE in flags to it anyway, but
additionally resume the supplier if the link is added during
consumer driver probe to retain the existing behavior for the
callers depending on it.

<title>PM / Domains: Fix error path during attach in genpd</title>

commit 72038df3c580c4c326b83c86149d7ac34007532a upstream.

In case the PM domain fails to be powered on in genpd_dev_pm_attach(), it
returns -EPROBE_DEFER, but keeping the device attached to its PM domain.
This leads to problems when the next attempt to attach is re-tried. More
precisely, in that situation an -EEXIST error code is returned, because the
device already has its PM domain pointer assigned, from the first attempt.

Now, because of the sloppy error handling by the existing callers of
dev_pm_domain_attach(), probing is allowed to continue when -EEXIST is
returned. However, in such case there are no guarantees that the PM domain
is powered on by genpd, which may lead to hangs when buses/drivers tried to
access their devices.

Let's fix this behaviour, simply by detaching the device when powering on
fails in genpd_dev_pm_attach().

commit 84d0c27d6233a9ba0578b20f5a09701eb66cee42 upstream.

syzbot is hitting WARN() at kernfs_add_one() [1].
This is because kernfs_create_link() is confused by previous device_add()
call which continued without setting dev-&gt;kobj.parent field when
get_device_parent() failed by memory allocation fault injection.
Fix this by propagating the error from class_dir_create_and_add() to
the calllers of get_device_parent().

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: fix leftover use of struct page during hotplug</title>
<updated>2018-05-26T01:12:11Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Jonathan Cameron</name>
<email>Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com</email>
</author>
<published>2018-05-25T21:47:53Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=a21558618c5dfc55b6086743a88ce5a9c1588f0a'/>
<id>urn:sha1:a21558618c5dfc55b6086743a88ce5a9c1588f0a</id>
<content type='text'>
The case of a new numa node got missed in avoiding using the node info
from page_struct during hotplug.  In this path we have a call to
register_mem_sect_under_node (which allows us to specify it is hotplug
so don't change the node), via link_mem_sections which unfortunately
does not.

Fix is to pass check_nid through link_mem_sections as well and disable
it in the new numa node path.

Note the bug only 'sometimes' manifests depending on what happens to be
in the struct page structures - there are lots of them and it only needs
to match one of them.

The result of the bug is that (with a new memory only node) we never
successfully call register_mem_sect_under_node so don't get the memory
associated with the node in sysfs and meminfo for the node doesn't
report it.

It came up whilst testing some arm64 hotplug patches, but appears to be
universal.  Whilst I'm triggering it by removing then reinserting memory
to a node with no other elements (thus making the node disappear then
appear again), it appears it would happen on hotplugging memory where
there was none before and it doesn't seem to be related the arm64
patches.

These patches call __add_pages (where most of the issue was fixed by
Pavel's patch).  If there is a node at the time of the __add_pages call
then all is well as it calls register_mem_sect_under_node from there
with check_nid set to false.  Without a node that function returns
having not done the sysfs related stuff as there is no node to use.
This is expected but it is the resulting path that fails...

Exact path to the problem is as follows:

 mm/memory_hotplug.c: add_memory_resource()

   The node is not online so we enter the 'if (new_node)' twice, on the
   second such block there is a call to link_mem_sections which calls
   into

  drivers/node.c: link_mem_sections() which calls

  drivers/node.c: register_mem_sect_under_node() which calls
     get_nid_for_pfn and keeps trying until the output of that matches
     the expected node (passed all the way down from
     add_memory_resource)

It is effectively the same fix as the one referred to in the fixes tag
just in the code path for a new node where the comments point out we
have to rerun the link creation because it will have failed in
register_new_memory (as there was no node at the time).  (actually that
comment is wrong now as we don't have register_new_memory any more it
got renamed to hotplug_memory_register in Pavel's patch).

Commit 08810a4119aa (PM / core: Add NEVER_SKIP and SMART_PREPARE
driver flags) inadvertently prevented the power.direct_complete flag
from being set for devices without PM callbacks and with disabled
runtime PM which also prevents power.direct_complete from being set
for their parents.  That led to problems including a resume crash on
HP ZBook 14u.

Restore the previous behavior by causing power.direct_complete to be
set for those devices again, but do that in a more direct way to
avoid overlooking that case in the future.

Add the sysfs file for the new vulerability. It does not do much except
show the words 'Vulnerable' for recent x86 cores.

Intel cores prior to family 6 are known not to be vulnerable, and so are
some Atoms and some Xeon Phi.

It assumes that older Cyrix, Centaur, etc. cores are immune.
