Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A rather large update after the kaisered maintainer finally found time to handle regression reports. - The larger part addresses a regression caused by the x86 vector management rework. The reservation based model does not work reliably for MSI interrupts, if they cannot be masked (yes, yet another hw engineering trainwreck). The reason is that the reservation mode assigns a dummy vector when the interrupt is allocated and switches to a real vector when the interrupt is requested. If the MSI entry cannot be masked then the initialization might raise an interrupt before the interrupt is requested, which ends up as spurious interrupt and causes device malfunction and worse. The fix is to exclude MSI interrupts which do not support masking from reservation mode and assign a real vector right away. - Extend the extra lockdep class setup for nested interrupts with a class for the recently added irq_desc::request_mutex so lockdep can differeniate and does not emit false positive warnings. - A ratelimit guard for the bad irq printout so in case a bad irq comes back immediately the system does not drown in dmesg spam" * 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: genirq/msi, x86/vector: Prevent reservation mode for non maskable MSI genirq/irqdomain: Rename early argument of irq_domain_activate_irq() x86/vector: Use IRQD_CAN_RESERVE flag genirq: Introduce IRQD_CAN_RESERVE flag genirq/msi: Handle reactivation only on success gpio: brcmstb: Make really use of the new lockdep class genirq: Guard handle_bad_irq log messages kernel/irq: Extend lockdep class for request mutex

The error path in write_ldt() tries to free 'old_ldt' instead of the newly allocated 'new_ldt', resulting in a memory leak. It also misses to clean up a half populated LDT pagetable, which is not a leak as it gets cleaned up when the process exits. Free both the potentially half populated LDT pagetable and the newly allocated LDT struct. This can be done unconditionally because once an LDT is mapped subsequent maps will succeed, because the PTE page is already populated and the two LDTs fit into that single page. Reported-by:

The preempt_disable/enable() pair in __native_flush_tlb() was added in commit: 5cf0791d ("x86/mm: Disable preemption during CR3 read+write") ... to protect the UP variant of flush_tlb_mm_range(). That preempt_disable/enable() pair should have been added to the UP variant of flush_tlb_mm_range() instead. The UP variant was removed with commit: ce4a4e56 ("x86/mm: Remove the UP asm/tlbflush.h code, always use the (formerly) SMP code") ... but the preempt_disable/enable() pair stayed around. The latest change to __native_flush_tlb() in commit: 6fd166aa ("x86/mm: Use/Fix PCID to optimize user/kernel switches") ... added an access to a per CPU variable outside the preempt disabled regions, which makes no sense at all. __native_flush_tlb() must always be called with at least preemption disabled. Remove the preempt_disable/enable() pair and add a WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch bad callers independent of the smp_processor_id() debugging. Signed-off-by:

smpboot_setup_warm_reset_vector() and smpboot_restore_warm_reset_vector() invoke local_flush_tlb() for no obvious reason. Digging in history revealed that the original code in the 2.1 era added those because the code manipulated a swapper_pg_dir pagetable entry. The pagetable manipulation was removed long ago in the 2.3 timeframe, but the TLB flush invocations stayed around forever. Remove them along with the pointless pr_debug()s which come from the same 2.1 change. Reported-by:

It appears that hardened gentoo enables "-fstack-check" by default for gcc. That doesn't work _at_all_ for the kernel, because the kernel stack doesn't act like a user stack at all: it's much smaller, and it doesn't auto-expand on use. So the extra "probe one page below the stack" code generated by -fstack-check just breaks the kernel in horrible ways, causing infinite double faults etc. [ I have to say, that the particular code gcc generates looks very stupid even for user space where it works, but that's a separate issue. ] Reported-and-tested-by:

The conditions in irq_exit() to invoke tick_nohz_irq_exit() which subsequently invokes tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() are: if ((idle_cpu(cpu) && !need_resched()) || tick_nohz_full_cpu(cpu)) If need_resched() is not set, but a timer softirq is pending then this is an indication that the softirq code punted and delegated the execution to softirqd. need_resched() is not true because the current interrupted task takes precedence over softirqd. Invoking tick_nohz_irq_exit() in this case can cause an endless loop of timer interrupts because the timer wheel contains an expired timer, but softirqs are not yet executed. So it returns an immediate expiry request, which causes the timer to fire immediately again. Lather, rinse and repeat.... Prevent that by adding a check for a pending timer soft interrupt to the conditions in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() which avoid calling get_next_timer_interrupt(). That keeps the tick sched timer on the tick and prevents a repetitive programming of an already expired timer. Reported-by:

The timer wheel bases are not (re)initialized on CPU hotplug. That leaves them with a potentially stale clk and next_expiry valuem, which can cause trouble then the CPU is plugged. Add a prepare callback which forwards the clock, sets next_expiry to far in the future and reset the control flags to a known state. Set base->must_forward_clk so the first timer which is queued will try to forward the clock to current jiffies. Fixes: 500462a9 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") Reported-by:
