13 years agox86-64: Emulate legacy vsyscalls
Andy Lutomirski [Sun, 5 Jun 2011 17:50:24 +0000 (13:50 -0400)]
x86-64: Emulate legacy vsyscalls

There's a fair amount of code in the vsyscall page.  It contains
a syscall instruction (in the gettimeofday fallback) and who
knows what will happen if an exploit jumps into the middle of
some other code.

Reduce the risk by replacing the vsyscalls with short magic
incantations that cause the kernel to emulate the real
vsyscalls. These incantations are useless if entered in the
middle.

This causes vsyscalls to be a little more expensive than real
syscalls.  Fortunately sensible programs don't use them.
The only exception is time() which is still called by glibc
through the vsyscall - but calling time() millions of times
per second is not sensible. glibc has this fixed in the
development tree.

This patch is not perfect: the vread_tsc and vread_hpet
functions are still at a fixed address.  Fixing that might
involve making alternative patching work in the vDSO.

Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"

This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c.

It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.

It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").

It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.

And it didn't actually work at all.  BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
  "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
   server for me, possibly related to PTYs.  For example, cat'ing a
   large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
   loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
   data in the quoted bits further down).

   ...

   Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
   flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
   the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
   forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
   process that could have emptied the PTY."

which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.

Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/29/423

The dmar initialization code will reserve all PCI MMIO regions and copy
those reservations into a domain specific iova tree.  It is possible for
one of those regions to be above the dma mask of a device.  It is typical
to allocate iovas with a 32bit mask (despite device's dma mask possibly
being larger) and cache the result until it exhausts the lower 32bit
address space.  Freeing the iova range that is >= the last iova in the
lower 32bit range when there is still an iova above the 32bit range will
corrupt the cached iova by pointing it to a region that is above 32bit.
If that region is also larger than the device's dma mask, a subsequent
allocation will return an unusable iova and cause dma failure.

Simply don't cache an iova that is above the 32bit caching boundary.

intel-iommu: Enable super page (2MiB, 1GiB, etc.) support

There are no externally-visible changes with this. In the loop in the
internal __domain_mapping() function, we simply detect if we are mapping:
  - size >= 2MiB, and
  - virtual address aligned to 2MiB, and
  - physical address aligned to 2MiB, and
  - on hardware that supports superpages.

(and likewise for larger superpages).

We automatically use a superpage for such mappings. We never have to
worry about *breaking* superpages, since we trust that we will always
*unmap* the same range that was mapped. So all we need to do is ensure
that dma_pte_clear_range() will also cope with superpages.

Adjust pfn_to_dma_pte() to take a superpage 'level' as an argument, so
it can return a PTE at the appropriate level rather than always
extending the page tables all the way down to level 1. Again, this is
simplified by the fact that we should never encounter existing small
pages when we're creating a mapping; any old mapping that used the same
virtual range will have been entirely removed and its obsolete page
tables freed.

Provide an 'intel_iommu=sp_off' argument on the command line as a
chicken bit. Not that it should ever be required.

typed into an email. Followed by half a dozen subsequent 'fixes'.

I've taken the unusual step of rewriting history and collapsing the

life easier for the people who are going to have to backport this to

which (hopefully) gives a better explanation of what's going on.

UBIFS drop the last min. I/O unit in all journal heads, but this is needed only
for the GC head. And this does not work for non-GC heads. For example, if
suppose we have min. I/O units A and B, and A contains a valid node X, which
was fsynced, and then a group of nodes Y which spans the rest of A and B. In
this case we'll drop not only Y, but also X, which is obviously incorrect.

This patch fixes the issue and additionally makes recovery to drop last min.
I/O unit only for the GC head, and leave things as they have been for ages for
the other heads - this is safer.

zd1211rw: fix to work on OHCI

          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            2

          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               0

Commit 37939810b937aba830dd751291fcdc51cae1a6cb assumed that endpoint is
always interrupt type and changed usb_bulk_msg() calls to usb_interrupt_msg().

Problem here is that usb_bulk_msg() on interrupt endpoint selfcorrects the
call and changes requested pipe to interrupt type (see usb_bulk_msg).
However with usb_interrupt_msg() on bulk endpoint does not correct the
pipe type to bulk, but instead URB is submitted with interrupt type pipe.

So pre-2.6.39 used usb_bulk_msg() and therefore worked with both endpoint
types, however in 2.6.39 usb_interrupt_msg() with bulk endpoint causes
ohci_hcd to fail submitted URB instantly with -ENOSPC and preventing zd1211rw
from working with OHCI.

Fix this by detecting endpoint type and using correct endpoint/pipe types
for URB. Also fix asynchronous zd_usb_iowrite16v_async() to use right
URB type on 'EP 4 OUT'.
