David Matlack fc5b7f3bf1 kvm: x86: do not leak guest xcr0 into host interrupt handlers
An interrupt handler that uses the fpu can kill a KVM VM, if it runs
under the following conditions:
 - the guest's xcr0 register is loaded on the cpu
 - the guest's fpu context is not loaded
 - the host is using eagerfpu

Note that the guest's xcr0 register and fpu context are not loaded as
part of the atomic world switch into "guest mode". They are loaded by
KVM while the cpu is still in "host mode".

Usage of the fpu in interrupt context is gated by irq_fpu_usable(). The
interrupt handler will look something like this:

if (irq_fpu_usable()) {
        kernel_fpu_begin();

        [... code that uses the fpu ...]

        kernel_fpu_end();
}

As long as the guest's fpu is not loaded and the host is using eager
fpu, irq_fpu_usable() returns true (interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle()
returns true). The interrupt handler proceeds to use the fpu with
the guest's xcr0 live.

kernel_fpu_begin() saves the current fpu context. If this uses
XSAVE[OPT], it may leave the xsave area in an undesirable state.
According to the SDM, during XSAVE bit i of XSTATE_BV is not modified
if bit i is 0 in xcr0. So it's possible that XSTATE_BV[i] == 1 and
xcr0[i] == 0 following an XSAVE.

kernel_fpu_end() restores the fpu context. Now if any bit i in
XSTATE_BV == 1 while xcr0[i] == 0, XRSTOR generates a #GP. The
fault is trapped and SIGSEGV is delivered to the current process.

Only pre-4.2 kernels appear to be vulnerable to this sequence of
events. Commit 653f52c ("kvm,x86: load guest FPU context more eagerly")
from 4.2 forces the guest's fpu to always be loaded on eagerfpu hosts.

This patch fixes the bug by keeping the host's xcr0 loaded outside
of the interrupts-disabled region where KVM switches into guest mode.

Xiao Guangrong 7a98205dee KVM: MMU: fix permission_fault()
kvm-unit-tests complained about the PFEC is not set properly, e.g,:
test pte.rw pte.d pte.nx pde.p pde.rw pde.pse user fetch: FAIL: error code 15
expected 5
Dump mapping: address: 0x123400000000
------L4: 3e95007
------L3: 3e96007
------L2: 2000083

It's caused by the reason that PFEC returned to guest is copied from the
PFEC triggered by shadow page table

This patch fixes it and makes the logic of updating errcode more clean

Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
 "Since commit 0de798584b ("parisc: Use generic extable search and
  sort routines") module loading is boken on parisc, because the parisc
  module loader wasn't prepared for the new R_PARISC_PCREL32 relocations.

  In addition, due to that breakage, Mikulas Patocka noticed that
  handling exceptions from modules probably never worked on parisc.  It
  was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules don't happen
  during normal use.

  This patch series fixes those issues and survives the tests of the
  lib/test_user_copy kernel module test.  Some patches are tagged for
  stable"

Linus Torvalds 289b7bfd48 Merge tag 'gpio-v4.6-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO fixes from Linus Walleij:
 "Here is a set of four GPIO fixes.  The two fixes to the core are
  serious as they are regressing minor architectures.

  Core fixes:

   - Defer GPIO device setup until after gpiolib is initialized.

     It turns out that a few very tightly integrated GPIO platform
     drivers initialize so early (befor core_initcall()) so that the
     gpiolib isn't even initialized itself.  That limits what the
     library can do, and we cannot reference uninitialized fields until
     later.

     Defer some of the initialization until right after the gpiolib is
     initialized in these (rare) cases.

   - As a consequence: do not use devm_* resources when allocating the
     states in the initial set-up of the gpiochip.

  Driver fixes:

   - In ACPI retrieveal: ignore GpioInt when looking for output GPIOs.

   - Fix legacy builds on the PXA without a backing pin controller.

   - Use correct datatype on pca953x register writes"

Handling exceptions from modules never worked on parisc.
It was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules
don't happen during normal use.

When a module triggers an exception in get_user() we need to load the
main kernel dp value before accessing the exception_data structure, and
afterwards restore the original dp value of the module on exit.

Helge Deller e3893027a3 parisc: Avoid function pointers for kernel exception routines
We want to avoid the kernel module loader to create function pointers
for the kernel fixup routines of get_user() and put_user(). Changing
the external reference from function type to int type fixes this.

This unbreaks exception handling for get_user() and put_user() when
called from a kernel module.
