Fix a bug in kprobes which can modify kernel code
permanently at run-time. In the result, kernel can
crash when it executes the modified code.
This bug can happen when we put two probes enough near
and the first probe is optimized. When the second probe
is set up, it copies a byte which is already modified
by the first probe, and executes it when the probe is hit.
Even worse, the first probe and the second probe are removed
respectively, the second probe writes back the copied
(modified) instruction.
To fix this bug, kprobes always recovers the original
code and copies the first byte from recovered instruction.

Current probed-instruction recovery expects that only breakpoint
instruction modifies instruction. However, since kprobes jump
optimization can replace original instructions with a jump,
that expectation is not enough. And it may cause instruction
decoding failure on the function where an optimized probe
already exists.
This bug can reproduce easily as below:
1) find a target function address (any kprobe-able function is OK)
$ grep __secure_computing /proc/kallsyms
ffffffff810c19d0 T __secure_computing
2) decode the function
$ objdump -d vmlinux --start-address=0xffffffff810c19d0 --stop-address=0xffffffff810c19eb
vmlinux: file format elf64-x86-64
Disassembly of section .text:
ffffffff810c19d0 <__secure_computing>:
ffffffff810c19d0: 55 push %rbp
ffffffff810c19d1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
ffffffff810c19d4: e8 67 8f 72 00 callq
ffffffff817ea940 <mcount>
ffffffff810c19d9: 65 48 8b 04 25 40 b8 mov %gs:0xb840,%rax
ffffffff810c19e0: 00 00
ffffffff810c19e2: 83 b8 88 05 00 00 01 cmpl $0x1,0x588(%rax)
ffffffff810c19e9: 74 05 je ffffffff810c19f0 <__secure_computing+0x20>
3) put a kprobe-event at an optimize-able place, where no
call/jump places within the 5 bytes.
$ su -
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
4) enable it and check it is optimized.
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
5) put another kprobe on an instruction after previous probe in
the same function.
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[ 1666.500016] Probing address(0xffffffff810c19e2) is not an instruction boundary.
6) however, if the kprobes optimization is disabled, it works.
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
(no error)
This is because kprobes doesn't recover the instruction
which is overwritten with a relative jump by another kprobe
when finding instruction boundary.
It only recovers the breakpoint instruction.
This patch fixes kprobes to recover such instructions.
With this fix:
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
ffffffff810c1ab2 k __secure_computing+0x12 [DISABLED]
Changes in v4:
- Fix a bug to ensure optimized probe is really optimized
by jump.
- Remove kprobe_optready() dependency.
- Cleanup code for preparing optprobe separation.
Changes in v3:
- Fix a build error when CONFIG_OPTPROBE=n. (Thanks, Ingo!)
To fix the error, split optprobe instruction recovering
path from kprobes path.
- Cleanup comments/styles.
Changes in v2:
- Fix a bug to recover original instruction address in
RIP-relative instruction fixup.
- Moved on tip/master.

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not
count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control
register and SVM is disabled in EFER.
This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit
in the performance counter control register when SVM is not
enabled.
The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the
user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is
disabled the counter should not run at all and the
not-counting is the intended behaviour.

141168c36cde ("x86: Simplify code by removing a !SMP #ifdefs
from 'struct cpuinfo_x86'") removed a bunch of CONFIG_SMP ifdefs
around code touching struct cpuinfo_x86 members but also caused
the following build error with Randy's randconfigs:
mce_amd.c:(.cpuinit.text+0x4723): undefined reference to `cpu_llc_shared_map'
Restore the #ifdef in threshold_create_bank() which creates
symlinks on the non-BSP CPUs.
There's a better patch series being worked on by Kevin Winchester
which will solve this in a cleaner fashion, but that series is
too ambitious for v3.3 merging - so we first queue up this trivial
fix and then do the rest for v3.4.

Linus noticed that the cmp used to check if the code segment is
__KERNEL_CS or not did not specify a size. Perhaps it does not matter
as H. Peter Anvin noted that user space can not set the bottom two
bits of the %cs register. But it's best not to let the assembly choose
and change things between different versions of gas, but instead just
pick the size.
Four bytes are used to compare the saved code segment against
__KERNEL_CS. Perhaps this might mess up Xen, but we can fix that when
the time comes.
Also I noticed that there was another non-specified cmp that checks
the special stack variable if it is 1 or 0. This too probably doesn't
matter what cmp is used, but this patch uses cmpl just to make it non
ambiguous.

Currently, the NMI handler tests if it is nested by checking the
special variable saved on the stack (set during NMI handling)
and whether the saved stack is the NMI stack as well (to prevent
the race when the variable is set to zero).
But userspace may set their %rsp to any value as long as they do
not derefence it, and it may make it point to the NMI stack,
which will prevent NMIs from triggering while the userspace app
is running. (I tested this, and it is indeed the case)
Add another check to determine nested NMIs by looking at the
saved %cs (code segment register) and making sure that it is the
kernel code segment.

For L1 instruction cache and L2 cache the shared CPU information
is wrong. On current AMD family 15h CPUs those caches are shared
between both cores of a compute unit.

(And define it properly for x86-32, which had its 'current_task'
declaration in separate from x86-64)
Bitten by my dislike for modules on the machines I use, and the fact
that apparently nobody else actually wanted to test the patches I sent
out.
Snif. Nobody else cares.
Anyway, we probably should uninline the 'kernel_fpu_begin()' function
that is what modules actually use and that references this, but this is
the minimal fix for now.

This makes us recognize when we try to restore FPU state that matches
what we already have in the FPU on this CPU, and avoids the restore
entirely if so.
To do this, we add two new data fields:
- a percpu 'fpu_owner_task' variable that gets written any time we
update the "has_fpu" field, and thus acts as a kind of back-pointer
to the task that owns the CPU. The exception is when we save the FPU
state as part of a context switch - if the save can keep the FPU
state around, we leave the 'fpu_owner_task' variable pointing at the
task whose FP state still remains on the CPU.
- a per-thread 'last_cpu' field, that indicates which CPU that thread
used its FPU on last. We update this on every context switch
(writing an invalid CPU number if the last context switch didn't
leave the FPU in a lazily usable state), so we know that *that*
thread has done nothing else with the FPU since.
These two fields together can be used when next switching back to the
task to see if the CPU still matches: if 'fpu_owner_task' matches the
task we are switching to, we know that no other task (or kernel FPU
usage) touched the FPU on this CPU in the meantime, and if the current
CPU number matches the 'last_cpu' field, we know that this thread did no
other FP work on any other CPU, so the FPU state on the CPU must match

In that case, we can avoid the 'f[x]rstor' entirely, and just clear the
CR0.TS bit.

This inlines what is usually just a couple of instructions, but more
importantly it also fixes the theoretical error case (can that FPU
restore really ever fail? Maybe we should remove the checking).
We can't start sending signals from within the scheduler, we're much too
deep in the kernel and are holding the runqueue lock etc. So don't
bother even trying.

This makes sure we clear the FPU usage counter for newly created tasks,
just so that we start off in a known state (for example, don't try to
preload the FPU state on the first task switch etc).
It also fixes a thinko in when we increment the fpu_counter at task
switch time, introduced by commit 34ddc81a230b ("i387: re-introduce FPU
state preloading at context switch time"). We should increment the
*new* task fpu_counter, not the old task, and only if we decide to use
that state (whether lazily or preloaded).

After all the FPU state cleanups and finally finding the problem that
caused all our FPU save/restore problems, this re-introduces the
preloading of FPU state that was removed in commit b3b0870ef3ff ("i387:
do not preload FPU state at task switch time").
However, instead of simply reverting the removal, this reimplements
preloading with several fixes, most notably
- properly abstracted as a true FPU state switch, rather than as
open-coded save and restore with various hacks.
In particular, implementing it as a proper FPU state switch allows us
to optimize the CR0.TS flag accesses: there is no reason to set the
TS bit only to then almost immediately clear it again. CR0 accesses
are quite slow and expensive, don't flip the bit back and forth for
no good reason.
- Make sure that the same model works for both x86-32 and x86-64, so
that there are no gratuitous differences between the two due to the
way they save and restore segment state differently due to
architectural differences that really don't matter to the FPU state.
- Avoid exposing the "preload" state to the context switch routines,
and in particular allow the concept of lazy state restore: if nothing
else has used the FPU in the meantime, and the process is still on
the same CPU, we can avoid restoring state from memory entirely, just
re-expose the state that is still in the FPU unit.
That optimized lazy restore isn't actually implemented here, but the
infrastructure is set up for it. Of course, older CPU's that use
'fnsave' to save the state cannot take advantage of this, since the
state saving also trashes the state.
In other words, there is now an actual _design_ to the FPU state saving,
rather than just random historical baggage. Hopefully it's easier to
follow as a result.

This moves the bit that indicates whether a thread has ownership of the
FPU from the TS_USEDFPU bit in thread_info->status to a word of its own
(called 'has_fpu') in task_struct->thread.has_fpu.
This fixes two independent bugs at the same time:
- changing 'thread_info->status' from the scheduler causes nasty
problems for the other users of that variable, since it is defined to
be thread-synchronous (that's what the "TS_" part of the naming was
supposed to indicate).
So perfectly valid code could (and did) do
ti->status |= TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK;
and the compiler was free to do that as separate load, or and store
instructions. Which can cause problems with preemption, since a task
switch could happen in between, and change the TS_USEDFPU bit. The
change to TS_USEDFPU would be overwritten by the final store.
In practice, this seldom happened, though, because the 'status' field
was seldom used more than once, so gcc would generally tend to
generate code that used a read-modify-write instruction and thus
happened to avoid this problem - RMW instructions are naturally low
fat and preemption-safe.
- On x86-32, the current_thread_info() pointer would, during interrupts
and softirqs, point to a *copy* of the real thread_info, because
x86-32 uses %esp to calculate the thread_info address, and thus the
separate irq (and softirq) stacks would cause these kinds of odd
thread_info copy aliases.
This is normally not a problem, since interrupts aren't supposed to
look at thread information anyway (what thread is running at
interrupt time really isn't very well-defined), but it confused the
heck out of irq_fpu_usable() and the code that tried to squirrel
away the FPU state.
(It also caused untold confusion for us poor kernel developers).
It also turns out that using 'task_struct' is actually much more natural
for most of the call sites that care about the FPU state, since they
tend to work with the task struct for other reasons anyway (ie
scheduling). And the FPU data that we are going to save/restore is
found there too.
Thanks to Arjan Van De Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for pointing us to
the %esp issue.

The AMD K7/K8 CPUs don't save/restore FDP/FIP/FOP unless an exception is
pending. In order to not leak FIP state from one process to another, we
need to do a floating point load after the fxsave of the old process,
and before the fxrstor of the new FPU state. That resets the state to
the (uninteresting) kernel load, rather than some potentially sensitive
user information.
We used to do this directly after the FPU state save, but that is
actually very inconvenient, since it
(a) corrupts what is potentially perfectly good FPU state that we might
want to lazy avoid restoring later and
(b) on x86-64 it resulted in a very annoying ordering constraint, where
"__unlazy_fpu()" in the task switch needs to be delayed until after
the DS segment has been reloaded just to get the new DS value.
Coupling it to the fxrstor instead of the fxsave automatically avoids
both of these issues, and also ensures that we only do it when actually
necessary (the FP state after a save may never actually get used). It's
simply a much more natural place for the leaked state cleanup.

Yes, taking the trap to re-load the FPU/MMX state is expensive, but so
is spending several days looking for a bug in the state save/restore
code. And the preload code has some rather subtle interactions with
both paravirtualization support and segment state restore, so it's not
nearly as simple as it should be.
Also, now that we no longer necessarily depend on a single bit (ie
TS_USEDFPU) for keeping track of the state of the FPU, we migth be able
to do better. If we are really switching between two processes that
keep touching the FP state, save/restore is inevitable, but in the case
of having one process that does most of the FPU usage, we may actually
be able to do much better than the preloading.
In particular, we may be able to keep track of which CPU the process ran
on last, and also per CPU keep track of which process' FP state that CPU
has. For modern CPU's that don't destroy the FPU contents on save time,
that would allow us to do a lazy restore by just re-enabling the
existing FPU state - with no restore cost at all!

This creates three helper functions that do the TS_USEDFPU accesses, and
makes everybody that used to do it by hand use those helpers instead.
In addition, there's a couple of helper functions for the "change both
CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU at the same time" case, and the places that do
that together have been changed to use those. That means that we have
fewer random places that open-code this situation.
The intent is partly to clarify the code without actually changing any
semantics yet (since we clearly still have some hard to reproduce bug in
this area), but also to make it much easier to use another approach
entirely to caching the CR0.TS bit for software accesses.
Right now we use a bit in the thread-info 'status' variable (this patch
does not change that), but we might want to make it a full field of its
own or even make it a per-cpu variable.

Commit 5b1cbac37798 ("i387: make irq_fpu_usable() tests more robust")
added a sanity check to the #NM handler to verify that we never cause
the "Device Not Available" exception in kernel mode.
However, that check actually pinpointed a (fundamental) race where we do
cause that exception as part of the signal stack FPU state save/restore
code.
Because we use the floating point instructions themselves to save and
restore state directly from user mode, we cannot do that atomically with
testing the TS_USEDFPU bit: the user mode access itself may cause a page
fault, which causes a task switch, which saves and restores the FP/MMX
state from the kernel buffers.
This kind of "recursive" FP state save is fine per se, but it means that
when the signal stack save/restore gets restarted, it will now take the
'#NM' exception we originally tried to avoid. With preemption this can
happen even without the page fault - but because of the user access, we
cannot just disable preemption around the save/restore instruction.
There are various ways to solve this, including using the
"enable/disable_page_fault()" helpers to not allow page faults at all
during the sequence, and fall back to copying things by hand without the
use of the native FP state save/restore instructions.
However, the simplest thing to do is to just allow the #NM from kernel
space, but fix the race in setting and clearing CR0.TS that this all
exposed: the TS bit changes and the TS_USEDFPU bit absolutely have to be
atomic wrt scheduling, so while the actual state save/restore can be
interrupted and restarted, the act of actually clearing/setting CR0.TS
and the TS_USEDFPU bit together must not.
Instead of just adding random "preempt_disable/enable()" calls to what
is already excessively ugly code, this introduces some helper functions
that mostly mirror the "kernel_fpu_begin/end()" functionality, just for
the user state instead.
Those helper functions should probably eventually replace the other
ad-hoc CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU tests too, but I'll need to think about it
some more: the task switching functionality in particular needs to
expose the difference between the 'prev' and 'next' threads, while the
new helper functions intentionally were written to only work with
'current'.

Some code - especially the crypto layer - wants to use the x86
FP/MMX/AVX register set in what may be interrupt (typically softirq)
context.
That *can* be ok, but the tests for when it was ok were somewhat
suspect. We cannot touch the thread-specific status bits either, so
we'd better check that we're not going to try to save FP state or
anything like that.
Now, it may be that the TS bit is always cleared *before* we set the
USEDFPU bit (and only set when we had already cleared the USEDFP
before), so the TS bit test may actually have been sufficient, but it
certainly was not obviously so.
So this explicitly verifies that we will not touch the TS_USEDFPU bit,
and adds a few related sanity-checks. Because it seems that somehow
AES-NI is corrupting user FP state. The cause is not clear, and this
patch doesn't fix it, but while debugging it I really wanted the code to
be more obviously correct and robust.

The following patch fixes a bug introduced by the following
commit:
e050e3f0a71b ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")
The patch caused the following warning to pop up depending on
the sampling frequency adjustments:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c:995 x86_pmu_start+0x79/0xd4()
It was caused by the following call sequence:
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.part() {
stop()
if (delta > 0) {
perf_adjust_period() {
if (period > 8*...) {
stop()
...
start()
}
}
}
start()
}
Which caused a double start and a double stop, thus triggering
the assert in x86_pmu_start().
The patch fixes the problem by avoiding the double calls. We
pass a new argument to perf_adjust_period() to indicate whether
or not the event is already stopped. We can't just remove the
start/stop from that function because it's called from
__perf_event_overflow where the event needs to be reloaded via a
stop/start back-toback call.
The patch reintroduces the assertion in x86_pmu_start() which
was removed by commit:
84f2b9b ("perf: Remove deprecated WARN_ON_ONCE()")
In this second version, we've added calls to disable/enable PMU
during unthrottling or frequency adjustment based on bug report
of spurious NMI interrupts from Eric Dumazet.

static_key_slow_[inc|dec]()
So here's a boot tested patch on top of Jason's series that does
all the cleanups I talked about and turns jump labels into a
more intuitive to use facility. It should also address the
various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels.
Typical usage scenarios:
#include <linux/static_key.h>
struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE;
if (static_key_false(&key))
do unlikely code
else
do likely code
Or:
if (static_key_true(&key))
do likely code
else
do unlikely code
The static key is modified via:
static_key_slow_inc(&key);
...
static_key_slow_dec(&key);
The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an
expensive operation.
I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note
that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename
blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label
patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to
decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit.
On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to
likely()/unlikely() branches.

Stephane Eranian reported that doing a scheduler latency
measurements with perf on AMD doesn't work out as expected due
to the fact that the sched_clock() granularity is too coarse,
i.e. done in jiffies due to the sched_clock_stable not set,
which, if set, would mean that we get to use the TSC as sample
source which would give us much higher precision.
However, there's no reason not to set sched_clock_stable on AMD
because all families from F10h and upwards do have an invariant
TSC and have the CPUID flag to prove (CPUID_8000_0007_EDX[8]).
Make it so, #1.

With the new throttling/unthrottling code introduced with
commit:
e050e3f0a71b ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")
we occasionally hit two WARN_ON_ONCE() checks in:
- intel_pmu_pebs_enable()
- intel_pmu_lbr_enable()
- x86_pmu_start()
The assertions are no longer problematic. There is a valid
path where they can trigger but it is harmless.
The assertion can be triggered with:
$ perf record -e instructions:pp ....
Leading to paths:
intel_pmu_pebs_enable
intel_pmu_enable_event
x86_perf_event_set_period
x86_pmu_start
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context
perf_event_task_tick
scheduler_tick
And:
intel_pmu_lbr_enable
intel_pmu_enable_event
x86_perf_event_set_period
x86_pmu_start
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.
perf_event_task_tick
scheduler_tick
cpuc->enabled is always on because when we get to
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context() the PMU is not totally
disabled. Furthermore when we need to adjust a period,
we only stop the event we need to change and not the
entire PMU. Thus, when we re-enable, cpuc->enabled is
already set. Note that when we stop the event, both
pebs and lbr are stopped if necessary (and possible).

This commit removes the reboot quirk originally added by commit
e19e074 ("x86: Fix reboot problem on VersaLogic Menlow boards").
Testing with a VersaLogic Ocelot (VL-EPMs-21a rev 1.00 w/ BIOS
6.5.102) revealed the following regarding the reboot hang
problem:
- v2.6.37 reboot=bios was needed.
- v2.6.38-rc1: behavior changed, reboot=acpi is needed,
reboot=kbd and reboot=bios results in system hang.
- v2.6.38: VersaLogic patch (e19e074 "x86: Fix reboot problem on
VersaLogic Menlow boards") was applied prior to v2.6.38-rc7. This
patch sets a quirk for VersaLogic Menlow boards that forces the use
of reboot=bios, which doesn't work anymore.
- v3.2: It seems that commit 660e34c ("x86: Reorder reboot method
preferences") changed the default reboot method to acpi prior to
v3.0-rc1, which means the default behavior is appropriate for the
Ocelot. No VersaLogic quirk is required.
The Ocelot board used for testing can successfully reboot w/out
having to pass any reboot= arguments for all 3 current versions
of the BIOS.

Skip DMI checks for vendor specific reboot quirks if the user
passed in a reboot= arg on the command line - we should never
override user choices.

rsyslog will display KERN_EMERG messages on a connected
terminal. However, these messages are useless/undecipherable
for a general user.
For example, after a softlockup we get:
Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 14:18:06 ...
kernel:Stack:
Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 14:18:06 ...
kernel:Call Trace:
Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 14:18:06 ...
kernel:Code: ff ff a8 08 75 25 31 d2 48 8d 86 38 e0 ff ff 48 89
d1 0f 01 c8 0f ae f0 48 8b 86 38 e0 ff ff a8 08 75 08 b1 01 4c 89 e0 0f 01 c9 <e8> ea 69 dd ff 4c 29 e8 48 89 c7 e8 0f bc da ff 49 89 c4 49 89
This happens because the printk levels for these messages are
incorrect. Only an informational message should be displayed on
a terminal.
I modified the printk levels for various messages in the kernel
and tested the output by using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c kernel
modules (ie, softlockups, panics, hard lockups, etc.) and
confirmed that the console output was still the same and that
the output to the terminals was correct.
For example, in the case of a softlockup we now see the much
more informative:
Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 10:18:06 ...
BUG: soft lockup - CPU4 stuck for 60s!
instead of the above confusing messages.
AFAICT, the messages no longer have to be KERN_EMERG. In the
most important case of a panic we set console_verbose(). As for
the other less severe cases the correct data is output to the
console and /var/log/messages.
Successfully tested by me using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c module.

Smatch complains that we have some inconsistent NULL checking.
If "task" were NULL then it would lead to a NULL dereference
later. We can remove this test because earlier on in the
function we have:
if (!task)
task = current;

We've decided to provide CPU family specific container files
(starting with CPU family 15h). E.g. for family 15h we have to
load microcode_amd_fam15h.bin instead of microcode_amd.bin
Rationale is that starting with family 15h patch size is larger
than 2KB which was hard coded as maximum patch size in various
microcode loaders (not just Linux).
Container files which include patches larger than 2KB cause
different kinds of trouble with such old patch loaders. Thus we
have to ensure that the default container file provides only
patches with size less than 2KB.

This includes initial support for the recently published ACPI 5.0 spec.
In particular, support for the "hardware-reduced" bit that eliminates
the dependency on legacy hardware.
APEI has patches resulting from testing on real hardware.
Plus other random fixes.
* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux: (52 commits)
acpi/apei/einj: Add extensions to EINJ from rev 5.0 of acpi spec
intel_idle: Split up and provide per CPU initialization func
ACPI processor: Remove unneeded variable passed by acpi_processor_hotadd_init V2
ACPI processor: Remove unneeded cpuidle_unregister_driver call
intel idle: Make idle driver more robust
intel_idle: Fix a cast to pointer from integer of different size warning in intel_idle
ACPI: kernel-parameters.txt : Add intel_idle.max_cstate
intel_idle: remove redundant local_irq_disable() call
ACPI processor: Fix error path, also remove sysdev link
ACPI: processor: fix acpi_get_cpuid for UP processor
intel_idle: fix API misuse
ACPI APEI: Convert atomicio routines
ACPI: Export interfaces for ioremapping/iounmapping ACPI registers
ACPI: Fix possible alignment issues with GAS 'address' references
ACPI, ia64: Use SRAT table rev to use 8bit or 16/32bit PXM fields (ia64)
ACPI, x86: Use SRAT table rev to use 8bit or 32bit PXM fields (x86/x86-64)
ACPI: Store SRAT table revision
ACPI, APEI, Resolve false conflict between ACPI NVS and APEI
ACPI, Record ACPI NVS regions
ACPI, APEI, EINJ, Refine the fix of resource conflict
...

Some firmware will access memory in ACPI NVS region via APEI. That
is, instructions in APEI ERST/EINJ table will read/write ACPI NVS
region. The original resource conflict checking in APEI code will
check memory/ioport accessed by APEI via general resource management
mechanism. But ACPI NVS region is marked as busy already, so that the
false resource conflict will prevent APEI ERST/EINJ to work.
To fix this, this patch record ACPI NVS regions, so that we can avoid
request resources for memory region inside it.

make[3]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/vm86_32.o] Error 1
OK, I can reproduce it (32bit allmodconfig with AUDIT=y, AUDITSYSCALL=n)
It's due to commit d7e7528bcd45: "Audit: push audit success and retcode

Every arch calls:
if (unlikely(current->audit_context))
audit_syscall_entry()
which requires knowledge about audit (the existance of audit_context) in
the arch code. Just do it all in static inline in audit.h so that arch's
can remain blissfully ignorant.
