There is a race on concurrent 2KB-pgtables release paths when
both upper and lower halves of the containing parent page are
freed, one via page_table_free_rcu() + __tlb_remove_table(),
and the other via page_table_free(). The race might lead to a
corruption as result of remove of list item in page_table_free()
concurrently with __free_page() in __tlb_remove_table().
Let's assume first the lower and next the upper 2KB-pgtables are
freed from a page. Since both halves of the page are allocated
the tracking byte (bits 24-31 of the page _refcount) has value
of 0x03 initially:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
page_table_free_rcu() // lower half
{
// _refcount[31..24] == 0x03
...
atomic_xor_bits(&page->_refcount,
0x11U << (0 + 24));
// _refcount[31..24] <= 0x12
...
table = table | (1U << 0);
tlb_remove_table(tlb, table);
}
...
__tlb_remove_table()
{
// _refcount[31..24] == 0x12
mask = _table & 3;
// mask <= 0x01
...
page_table_free() // upper half
{
// _refcount[31..24] == 0x12
...
atomic_xor_bits(
&page->_refcount,
1U << (1 + 24));
// _refcount[31..24] <= 0x10
// mask <= 0x10
...
atomic_xor_bits(&page->_refcount,
mask << (4 + 24));
// _refcount[31..24] <= 0x00
// mask <= 0x00
...
if (mask != 0) // == false
break;
fallthrough;
...
if (mask & 3) // == false
...
else
__free_page(page); list_del(&page->lru);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ RACE! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
} ...
}
The problem is page_table_free() releases the page as result of
lower nibble unset and __tlb_remove_table() observing zero too
early. With this update page_table_free() will use the similar
logic as page_table_free_rcu() + __tlb_remove_table(), and mark
the fragment as pending for removal in the upper nibble until
after the list_del().
In other words, the parent page is considered as unreferenced and
safe to release only when the lower nibble is cleared already and
unsetting a bit in upper nibble results in that nibble turned zero.

Remove set_fs support from s390. With doing this rework address space
handling and simplify it. As a result address spaces are now setup
like this:
CPU running in | %cr1 ASCE | %cr7 ASCE | %cr13 ASCE
----------------------------|-----------|-----------|-----------
user space | user | user | kernel
kernel, normal execution | kernel | user | kernel
kernel, kvm guest execution | gmap | user | kernel
To achieve this the getcpu vdso syscall is removed in order to avoid
secondary address mode and a separate vdso address space in for user
space. The getcpu vdso syscall will be implemented differently with a
subsequent patch.
The kernel accesses user space always via secondary address space.
This happens in different ways:
- with mvcos in home space mode and directly read/write to secondary
address space
- with mvcs/mvcp in primary space mode and copy from primary space to
secondary space or vice versa
- with e.g. cs in secondary space mode and access secondary space
Switching translation modes happens with sacf before and after
instructions which access user space, like before.
Lazy handling of control register reloading is removed in the hope to
make everything simpler, but at the cost of making kernel entry and
exit a bit slower. That is: on kernel entry the primary asce is always
changed to contain the kernel asce, and on kernel exit the primary
asce is changed again so it contains the user asce.
In kernel mode there is only one exception to the primary asce: when
kvm guests are executed the primary asce contains the gmap asce (which
describes the guest address space). The primary asce is reset to
kernel asce whenever kvm guest execution is interrupted, so that this
doesn't has to be taken into account for any user space accesses.

s390/mm: fix page table upgrade vs 2ndary address mode accesses
A page table upgrade in a kernel section that uses secondary address
mode will mess up the kernel instructions as follows:
Consider the following scenario: two threads are sharing memory.
On CPU1 thread 1 does e.g. strnlen_user(). That gets to
old_fs = enable_sacf_uaccess();
len = strnlen_user_srst(src, size);
and
" la %2,0(%1)\n"
" la %3,0(%0,%1)\n"
" slgr %0,%0\n"
" sacf 256\n"
"0: srst %3,%2\n"
in strnlen_user_srst(). At that point we are in secondary space mode,
control register 1 points to kernel page table and instruction fetching
happens via c1, rather than usual c13. Interrupts are not disabled, for
obvious reasons.
On CPU2 thread 2 does MAP_FIXED mmap(), forcing the upgrade of page table
from 3-level to e.g. 4-level one. We'd allocated new top-level table,
set it up and now we hit this:
notify = 1;
spin_unlock_bh(&mm->page_table_lock);
}
if (notify)
on_each_cpu(__crst_table_upgrade, mm, 0);
OK, we need to actually change over to use of new page table and we
need that to happen in all threads that are currently running. Which
happens to include the thread 1. IPI is delivered and we have
static void __crst_table_upgrade(void *arg)
{
struct mm_struct *mm = arg;
if (current->active_mm == mm)
set_user_asce(mm);
__tlb_flush_local();
}
run on CPU1. That does
static inline void set_user_asce(struct mm_struct *mm)
{
S390_lowcore.user_asce = mm->context.asce;
OK, user page table address updated...
__ctl_load(S390_lowcore.user_asce, 1, 1);
... and control register 1 set to it.
clear_cpu_flag(CIF_ASCE_PRIMARY);
}
IPI is run in home space mode, so it's fine - insns are fetched
using c13, which always points to kernel page table. But as soon
as we return from the interrupt, previous PSW is restored, putting
CPU1 back into secondary space mode, at which point we no longer
get the kernel instructions from the kernel mapping.
The fix is to only fixup the control registers that are currently in use
for user processes during the page table update. We must also disable
interrupts in enable_sacf_uaccess to synchronize the cr and
thread.mm_segment updates against the on_each-cpu.

This update consolidates page table handling code. Because
there are hardly any 31-bit binaries left we do not need to
optimize for that.
No extra efforts are needed to ensure that a compat task does
not map anything above 2GB. The TASK_SIZE limit for 31-bit
tasks is 2GB already and the generic code does check that a

The naming of pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() seems to have confused a few
people, and until recently arm64 used these erroneously/pointlessly for
other levels of page table.
To make it incredibly clear that these only apply to the PTE level, and to
align with the naming of pgtable_pmd_page_{ctor,dtor}(), let's rename them
to pgtable_pte_page_{ctor,dtor}().
These changes were generated with the following shell script:
----
git grep -lw 'pgtable_page_.tor' | while read FILE; do
sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_ctor/pgtable_pte_page_ctor/}' $FILE;
sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_dtor/pgtable_pte_page_dtor/}' $FILE;
done
----
... with the documentation re-flowed to remain under 80 columns, and
whitespace fixed up in macros to keep backslashes aligned.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

In case a fork or a clone system fails in copy_process and the error
handling does the mmput() at the bad_fork_cleanup_mm label, the
following warning messages will appear on the console:
BUG: non-zero pgtables_bytes on freeing mm: 16384
The reason for that is the tricks we play with mm_inc_nr_puds() and
mm_inc_nr_pmds() in init_new_context().
A normal 64-bit process has 3 levels of page table, the p4d level and
the pud level are folded. On process termination the free_pud_range()
function in mm/memory.c will subtract 16KB from pgtable_bytes with a
mm_dec_nr_puds() call, but there actually is not really a pud table.
One issue with this is the fact that pgtable_bytes is usually off
by a few kilobytes, but the more severe problem is that for a failed
fork or clone the free_pgtables() function is not called. In this case
there is no mm_dec_nr_puds() or mm_dec_nr_pmds() that go together with
the mm_inc_nr_puds() and mm_inc_nr_pmds in init_new_context().
The pgtable_bytes will be off by 16384 or 32768 bytes and we get the
BUG message. The message itself is purely cosmetic, but annoying.
To fix this override the mm_pmd_folded, mm_pud_folded and mm_p4d_folded
function to check for the true size of the address space.

s390 no longer uses the _mapcount field in struct page to identify

the different mappings, it neglected to turn "off" the map bits when
alloc_pgste was being used. This resulted in bits remaining "on" in the
_refcount field, and thus an artifically huge "in use" count that prevents
the pages from actually being released by __free_page.
There's opportunity for improvement in the "1 vs 3" vs "1U vs 3U" vs
"0x1 vs 0x11" etc. variations for all these calls, I am just keeping
things simple compared to neighboring code.

Patch series "Rearrange struct page", v6.
As presented at LSFMM, this patch-set rearranges struct page to give
more contiguous usable space to users who have allocated a struct page
for their own purposes. For a graphical view of before-and-after, see
the first two tabs of
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tvCszs_7FXrjei9_mtFiKV6nW1FLnYyvPvW-qNZhdog/edit?usp=sharing
Highlights:
- deferred_list now really exists in struct page instead of just a comment.
- hmm_data also exists in struct page instead of being a nasty hack.
- x86's PGD pages have a real pointer to the mm_struct.
- VMalloc pages now have all sorts of extra information stored in them
to help with debugging and tuning.
- rcu_head is no longer tied to slab in case anyone else wants to
free pages by RCU.
- slub's counters no longer share space with _refcount.
- slub's freelist+counters are now naturally dword aligned.
- slub loses a parameter to a lot of functions and a sysfs file.
This patch (of 17):
s390 borrows the storage used for _mapcount in struct page in order to
account whether the bottom or top half is being used for 2kB page tables.
I want to use that for something else, so use the top byte of _refcount
instead of the bottom byte of _mapcount. _refcount may temporarily be
incremented by other CPUs that see a stale pointer to this page in the
page cache, but each CPU can only increment it by one, and there are no
systems with 2^24 CPUs today, so they will not change the upper byte of
_refcount. We do have to be a little careful not to lose any of their
writes (as they will subsequently decrement the counter).

Martin Cermak reported that setting a uprobe doesn't work. Reason for
this is that the common uprobes code tries to get an unmapped area at
the last possible page within an address space.
This broke with commit 1aea9b3f92 ("s390/mm: implement 5 level pages
tables") which introduced an off-by-one bug which prevents to map
anything at the last possible page within an address space.
The check with the off-by-one bug however can be removed since with

The vdso code for the getcpu() and the clock_gettime() call use the access
register mode to access the per-CPU vdso data page with the current code.
An alternative to the complicated AR mode is to use the secondary space
mode. This makes the vdso faster and quite a bit simpler. The downside is
that the uaccess code has to be changed quite a bit.
Which instructions are used depends on the machine and what kind of uaccess
operation is requested. The instruction dictates which ASCE value needs
to be loaded into %cr1 and %cr7.
The different cases:
* User copy with MVCOS for z10 and newer machines
The MVCOS instruction can copy between the primary space (aka user) and
the home space (aka kernel) directly. For set_fs(KERNEL_DS) the kernel
ASCE is loaded into %cr1. For set_fs(USER_DS) the user space is already
loaded in %cr1.
* User copy with MVCP/MVCS for older machines
To be able to execute the MVCP/MVCS instructions the kernel needs to
switch to primary mode. The control register %cr1 has to be set to the
kernel ASCE and %cr7 to either the kernel ASCE or the user ASCE dependent
on set_fs(KERNEL_DS) vs set_fs(USER_DS).
* Data access in the user address space for strnlen / futex
To use "normal" instruction with data from the user address space the
secondary space mode is used. The kernel needs to switch to primary mode,
%cr1 has to contain the kernel ASCE and %cr7 either the user ASCE or the
kernel ASCE, dependent on set_fs.
To load a new value into %cr1 or %cr7 is an expensive operation, the kernel
tries to be lazy about it. E.g. for multiple user copies in a row with
MVCP/MVCS the replacement of the vdso ASCE in %cr7 with the user ASCE is
done only once. On return to user space a CPU bit is checked that loads the
vdso ASCE again.
To enable and disable the data access via the secondary space two new
functions are added, enable_sacf_uaccess and disable_sacf_uaccess. The fact
that a context is in secondary space uaccess mode is stored in the
mm_segment_t value for the task. The code of an interrupt may use set_fs
as long as it returns to the previous state it got with get_fs with another
call to set_fs. The code in finish_arch_post_lock_switch simply has to do a
set_fs with the current mm_segment_t value for the task.
For CPUs with MVCOS:
CPU running in | %cr1 ASCE | %cr7 ASCE |
--------------------------------------|-----------|-----------|
user space | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode, lazy | user | user |
kernel, USER_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | user |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode | kernel | vdso |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode, lazy | kernel | kernel |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | kernel |
For CPUs without MVCOS:
CPU running in | %cr1 ASCE | %cr7 ASCE |
--------------------------------------|-----------|-----------|
user space | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode lazy | kernel | user |
kernel, USER_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | user |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode | kernel | vdso |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode, lazy | kernel | kernel |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | kernel |
The lines with "lazy" refer to the state after a copy via the secondary
space with a delayed reload of %cr1 and %cr7.
There are three hardware address spaces that can cause a DAT exception,
primary, secondary and home space. The exception can be related to
four different fault types: user space fault, vdso fault, kernel fault,
and the gmap faults.
Dependent on the set_fs state and normal vs. sacf mode there are a number
of fault combinations:
1) user address space fault via the primary ASCE
2) gmap address space fault via the primary ASCE
3) kernel address space fault via the primary ASCE for machines with
MVCOS and set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
4) vdso address space faults via the secondary ASCE with an invalid
address while running in secondary space in problem state
5) user address space fault via the secondary ASCE for user-copy
based on the secondary space mode, e.g. futex_ops or strnlen_user
6) kernel address space fault via the secondary ASCE for user-copy
with secondary space mode with set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
7) kernel address space fault via the primary ASCE for user-copy
with secondary space mode with set_fs(USER_DS) on machines without
MVCOS.
8) kernel address space fault via the home space ASCE
Replace user_space_fault() with a new function get_fault_type() that
can distinguish all four different fault types.
With these changes the futex atomic ops from the kernel and the
strnlen_user will get a little bit slower, as well as the old style
uaccess with MVCP/MVCS. All user accesses based on MVCOS will be as
fast as before. On the positive side, the user space vdso code is a
lot faster and Linux ceases to use the complicated AR mode.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

The ESSA instruction has a new option that allows to tag pages that
are not used as a page table. Without the tag the hypervisor has to
assume that any guest page could be used in a page table inside the
guest. This forces the hypervisor to flush all guest TLB entries
whenever a host page table entry is invalidated. With the tag
the host can skip the TLB flush if the page is tagged as normal page.

VGIC implementation.
- s390: support for trapping software breakpoints, nested virtualization
(vSIE), the STHYI opcode, initial extensions for CPU model support.
- MIPS: support for MIPS64 hosts (32-bit guests only) and lots of cleanups,
preliminary to this and the upcoming support for hardware virtualization
extensions.
- x86: support for execute-only mappings in nested EPT; reduced vmexit
latency for TSC deadline timer (by about 30%) on Intel hosts; support for
more than 255 vCPUs.
- PPC: bugfixes.
The ugly bit is the conflicts. A couple of them are simple conflicts due
to 4.7 fixes, but most of them are with other trees. There was definitely
too much reliance on Acked-by here. Some conflicts are for KVM patches
where _I_ gave my Acked-by, but the worst are for this pull request's
patches that touch files outside arch/*/kvm. KVM submaintainers should
probably learn to synchronize better with arch maintainers, with the
latter providing topic branches whenever possible instead of Acked-by.
This is what we do with arch/x86. And I should learn to refuse pull
requests when linux-next sends scary signals, even if that means that
submaintainers have to rebase their branches.
Anyhow, here's the list:
- arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c: handle_pcommit and EXIT_REASON_PCOMMIT was removed
by the nvdimm tree. This tree adds handle_preemption_timer and
EXIT_REASON_PREEMPTION_TIMER at the same place. In general all mentions
of pcommit have to go.
There is also a conflict between a stable fix and this patch, where the
stable fix removed the vmx_create_pml_buffer function and its call.
- virt/kvm/kvm_main.c: kvm_cpu_notifier was removed by the hotplug tree.
This tree adds kvm_io_bus_get_dev at the same place.
- virt/kvm/arm/vgic.c: a few final bugfixes went into 4.7 before the
file was completely removed for 4.8.
- include/linux/irqchip/arm-gic-v3.h: this one is entirely our fault;
this is a change that should have gone in through the irqchip tree and
pulled by kvm-arm. I think I would have rejected this kvm-arm pull
request. The KVM version is the right one, except that it lacks
GITS_BASER_PAGES_SHIFT.
- arch/powerpc: what a mess. For the idle_book3s.S conflict, the KVM
tree is the right one; everything else is trivial. In this case I am
not quite sure what went wrong. The commit that is causing the mess
(fd7bacbca4, "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix TB corruption in guest exit
path on HMI interrupt", 2016-05-15) touches both arch/powerpc/kernel/
and arch/powerpc/kvm/. It's large, but at 396 insertions/5 deletions
I guessed that it wasn't really possible to split it and that the 5
deletions wouldn't conflict. That wasn't the case.
- arch/s390: also messy. First is hypfs_diag.c where the KVM tree
moved some code and the s390 tree patched it. You have to reapply the
relevant part of commits 6c22c98637, plus all of e030c1125e, to
arch/s390/kernel/diag.c. Or pick the linux-next conflict
resolution from http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=146717549531603&w=2.
Second, there is a conflict in gmap.c between a stable fix and 4.8.
The KVM version here is the correct one.
I have pushed my resolution at refs/heads/merge-20160802 (commit
3d1f53419842) at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git.

For a nested KVM guest the outer KVM host needs to create shadow
page tables for the nested guest. This patch adds the basic support
to the guest address space (gmap) code.
For each guest address space the inner KVM host creates, the first
outer KVM host needs to create shadow page tables. The address space
is identified by the ASCE loaded into the control register 1 at the
time the inner SIE instruction for the second nested KVM guest is
executed. The outer KVM host creates the shadow tables starting with
the table identified by the ASCE on a on-demand basis. The outer KVM
host will get repeated faults for all the shadow tables needed to
run the second KVM guest.
While a shadow page table for the second KVM guest is active the access
to the origin region, segment and page tables needs to be restricted
for the first KVM guest. For region and segment and page tables the first
KVM guest may read the memory, but write attempt has to lead to an
unshadow. This is done using the page invalid and read-only bits in the
page table of the first KVM guest. If the first guest re-accesses one of
the origin pages of a shadow, it gets a fault and the affected parts of
the shadow page table hierarchy needs to be removed again.
PGSTE tables don't have to be shadowed, as all interpretation assist can't
deal with the invalid bits in the shadow pte being set differently than
the original ones provided by the first KVM guest.

There is a race with multi-threaded applications between context switch and
pagetable upgrade. In switch_mm() a new user_asce is built from mm->pgd and
mm->context.asce_bits, w/o holding any locks. A concurrent mmap with a
pagetable upgrade on another thread in crst_table_upgrade() could already
have set new asce_bits, but not yet the new mm->pgd. This would result in a
corrupt user_asce in switch_mm(), and eventually in a kernel panic from a
translation exception.
Fix this by storing the complete asce instead of just the asce_bits, which
can then be read atomically from switch_mm(), so that it either sees the
old value or the new value, but no mixture. Both cases are OK. Having the
old value would result in a page fault on access to the higher level memory,
but the fault handler would see the new mm->pgd, if it was a valid access
after the mmap on the other thread has completed. So as worst-case scenario
we would have a page fault loop for the racing thread until the next time
slice.
Also remove dead code and simplify the upgrade/downgrade path, there are no
upgrades from 2 levels, and only downgrades from 3 levels for compat tasks.
There are also no concurrent upgrades, because the mmap_sem is held with
down_write() in do_mmap, so the flush and table checks during upgrade can
be removed.
