commit c0e7bb38c07cbd8269549ee0a0566021a3c729de upstream.

For most cases a protection exception in the host (e.g. copy
on write or dirty tracking) on the sie instruction will indicate
an instruction length of 4. Turns out that there are some corner
cases (e.g. runtime instrumentation) where this is not necessarily
true and the ILC is unpredictable.

Let's replace our 4 byte rewind_pad with 3 byte nops to prepare for
all possible ILCs.

commit 07a63cbe8bcb6ba72fb989dcab1ec55ec6c36c7e upstream.

git commit c5328901aa1db134 "[S390] entry[64].S improvements" removed
the update of the exit_timer lowcore field from the critical section
cleanup of the .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done and .Lio_restore/.Lio_done
blocks. If the PSW is updated by the critical section cleanup to point to
user space again, the interrupt entry code will do a vtime calculation
after the cleanup completed with an exit_timer value which has *not* been
updated. Due to this incorrect system time deltas are calculated.

If an interrupt occured with an old PSW between .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done
or .Lio_restore/.Lio_done update __LC_EXIT_TIMER with the system entry
time of the interrupt.

<title>s390/kdump: Add final note</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5d1adbaf362a5fe1eabde24229076b2c168809b0</id>
<content type='text'>
commit dcc00b79fc3d076832f7240de8870f492629b171 upstream.

Since linux v3.14 with commit 38dfac843cb6d7be1 ("vmcore: prevent PT_NOTE
p_memsz overflow during header update") on s390 we get the following
message in the kdump kernel:

  Warning: Exceeded p_memsz, dropping PT_NOTE entry n_namesz=0x6b6b6b6b,
  n_descsz=0x6b6b6b6b

The reason for this is that we don't create a final zero note in
the ELF header which the proc/vmcore code uses to find out the end
of the notes section (see also kernel/kexec_core.c:final_note()).

It still worked on s390 by chance because we (most of the time?) have the
byte pattern 0x6b6b6b6b after the notes section which also makes the notes
parsing code stop in update_note_header_size_elf64() because 0x6b6b6b6b is
interpreded as note size:

  if ((real_sz + sz) &gt; max_sz) {
          pr_warn("Warning: Exceeded p_memsz, dropping P ...);
          break;
  }

So fix this and add the missing final note to the ELF header.
We don't have to adjust the memory size for ELF header ("alloc_size")
because the new ELF note still fits into the 0x1000 base memory.

<title>mm: fix section name for .data..ro_after_init</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=906f2a51c941e251ca196d5128953d9899a608ef'/>
<id>urn:sha1:906f2a51c941e251ca196d5128953d9899a608ef</id>
<content type='text'>
A section name for .data..ro_after_init was added by both:

    commit d07a980c1b8d ("s390: add proper __ro_after_init support")

and

    commit d7c19b066dcf ("mm: kmemleak: scan .data.ro_after_init")

The latter adds incorrect wrapping around the existing s390 section, and
came later.  I'd prefer the s390 naming, so this moves the s390-specific
name up to the asm-generic/sections.h and renames the section as used by
kmemleak (and in the future, kernel/extable.c).

<content type='text'>
Commit af51160ebd3c ("s390/smp: initialize cpu_present_mask in
setup_arch") initializes the cpu_present_mask much earlier than
before. However the cpu detection code relies on the fact that iff
logical cpu 0 is marked present then also the corresponding physical
cpu address within the pcpu_devices array slot is valid.

Since commit 44fd22992cb7 ("[PATCH] Register the boot-cpu in the cpu
maps earlier") this assumption is not true anymore. The patch marks
logical cpu 0 as present in common code without that architecture code
had a chance to setup the logical to physical map.

With that change the cpu detection code assumes that the physical cpu
address of cpu 0 is also 0, which is not necessarily true.
Subsequently the physical cpu address of the ipl cpu will be mapped to
a different logical cpu. If that cpu is brought online later the ipl
cpu will send itself an initial cpu reset sigp signal. This in turn
completely resets the ipl cpu and the system stops working.

A dump of such a system looks like a "store status" has been
forgotten. But actually the kernel itself removed all traces which
would allow to easily tell what went wrong.

To fix this initialize the logical to physical cpu address already in
smp_setup_processor_id(). In addition remove the initialization of the
cpu_present_mask and cpu_online_mask for cpu 0, since that has already
been done. Also add a sanity check, just in case common code will be
changed again...

The problem can be easily reproduced within a z/VM guest:

&gt; chcpu -d 0
&gt; vmcp ipl
