ABIv2 kernels are failing to backtrace through the kernel. An example:
39.30% readseek2_proce [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_entry
|
--- find_get_entry
__GI___libc_read
The problem is in valid_next_sp() where we check that the new stack
pointer is at least STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD below the previous one.
ABIv1 has a minimum stack frame size of 112 bytes consisting of 48 bytes
and 64 bytes of parameter save area. ABIv2 changes that to 32 bytes
with no paramter save area.
STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is in theory the minimum stack frame size,
but we over 240 uses of it, some of which assume that it includes
space for the parameter area.
We need to work through all our stack defines and rationalise them
but let's fix perf now by creating STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and using
in valid_next_sp(). This fixes the issue:
30.64% readseek2_proce [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_entry
|
--- find_get_entry
pagecache_get_page
generic_file_read_iter
new_sync_read
vfs_read
sys_read
syscall_exit

Commit 86c8b27a01:
"arm64: ignore DT memreserve entries when booting in UEFI mode
prevents early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() from being called for
arm64 kernels booting via UEFI. This was done because the kernel
will use the UEFI memory map to determine reserved memory regions.
That approach has problems in that early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem()
also reserves the FDT itself and any node-specific reserved memory.
By chance of some kernel configs, the FDT may be overwritten before
it can be unflattened and the kernel will fail to boot. More subtle
problems will result if the FDT has node specific reserved memory
which is not really reserved.
This patch has the UEFI stub remove the memory reserve map entries
from the FDT as it does with the memory nodes. This allows
early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() to be called unconditionally
so that the other needed reservations are made.

We saw a kernel soft lockup in perf_remove_from_context(),
it looks like the `perf` process, when exiting, could not go
out of the retry loop. Meanwhile, the target process was forking
a child. So either the target process should execute the smp
function call to deactive the event (if it was running) or it should
do a context switch which deactives the event.
It seems we optimize out a context switch in perf_event_context_sched_out(),
and what's more important, we still test an obsolete task pointer when
retrying, so no one actually would deactive that event in this situation.
Fix it directly by reloading the task pointer in perf_remove_from_context().
This should cure the above soft lockup.

The tx_empty() callback currently checks the TXEMPTY bit in the interrupt
status register to decided whether the FIFO should be reported as empty or
not. The bit in this register gets set when the FIFO state transitions from
non-empty to empty but is cleared again in the interrupt handler. This means
it is not suitable to be used to decided whether the FIFO is currently empty
or not. Instead use the TXEMPTY bit from the status register which will be
set as long as the FIFO is empty.

Make sure the uwb_dev->bce entry is set before calling uwb_dev_add in
uwbd_dev_onair so that usermode will only see the device after it is
properly initialized. This fixes a kernel panic that can occur if
usermode tries to access the IEs sysfs attribute of a UWB device before
the driver has had a chance to set the beacon cache entry.

It's possible for dev_alloc_skb() to fail. Propagate the error to the caller,
so it can clean up and drop the packet. The sender should end up retransmitting
the packet, hopefully at a time we're prepared to allocate skb's again.

It is useful for userspace to know that there not dealing with a regular
mouse but rather with a pointing stick (e.g. a trackpoint) so that
userspace can e.g. automatically enable middle button scrollwheel
emulation.
It is impossible to tell the difference from the evdev info without
resorting to putting a list of device / driver names in userspace, this is
undesirable.
Add a property which allows userspace to see if a device is a pointing
stick, and set it on all the pointing stick drivers.

Commit 71c731a (usb: host: xhci: Fix Compliance Mode
on SN65LVP3502CP Hardware) implemented a workaround
for a known issue with Texas Instruments' USB 3.0
redriver IC but it left a condition where any xHCI
host would be taken out of reset if port was placed
in compliance mode and there was no device connected
to the port.
That condition would trigger a fake connection to a
non-existent device so that usbcore would trigger a
warm reset of the port, thus taking the link out of
reset.
This has the side-effect of preventing any xHCI host
connected to a Linux machine from starting and running
the USB 3.0 Electrical Compliance Suite because the
port will mysteriously taken out of compliance mode
and, thus, xHCI won't step through the necessary
compliance patterns for link validation.
This patch fixes the issue by just adding a missing
check for XHCI_COMP_MODE_QUIRK inside
xhci_hub_report_usb3_link_state() when PORT_CAS isn't
set.
This patch should be backported to all kernels containing
commit 71c731a.
