      irqchip/gic: Take lock when updating irq type · aa08192a
      Aniruddha Banerjee authored
      
      
      Most MMIO GIC register accesses use a 1-hot bit scheme that
      avoids requiring any form of locking. This isn't true for the
      GICD_ICFGRn registers, which require a RMW sequence.
      
      Unfortunately, we seem to be missing a lock for these particular
      accesses, which could result in a race condition if changing the
      trigger type on any two interrupts within the same set of 16
      interrupts (and thus controlled by the same CFGR register).
      
      Introduce a private lock in the GIC common comde for this
      particular case, making it cover both GIC implementations
      in one go.

      irqchip/gic: Update supports_deactivate static key to modern api · d01d3274
      Davidlohr Bueso authored
      
      
      No changes in semantics -- key init is true; replace
      
      static_key_slow_dec       with   static_branch_disable
      static_key_true           with   static_branch_likely
      
      The first is because we never actually do any couterpart incs,
      thus there is really no reference counting semantics going on.
      Use the more proper static_branch_disable() construct.
      
      Also added a '_key' suffix to supports_deactivate, for better
      self documentation.

      irqchip/gic-v3: Ensure GICR_CTLR.EnableLPI=0 is observed before enabling · 6eb486b6
      Shanker Donthineni authored
      
      
      Booting with GICR_CTLR.EnableLPI=1 is usually a bad idea, and may
      result in subtle memory corruption. Detecting this is thus pretty
      important.
      
      On detecting that LPIs are still enabled, we taint the kernel (because
      we're not sure of anything anymore), and try to disable LPIs. This can
      fail, as implementations are allowed to implement GICR_CTLR.EnableLPI
      as a one-way enable, meaning the redistributors cannot be reprogrammed
      with new tables.
      
      Should this happen, we fail probing the redistributor and warn the user
      that things are pretty dire.

      Pull x86/pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "Yet another pile of melted spectrum related updates:
      
         - Drop native vsyscall support finally as it causes more trouble than
           benefit.
      
         - Make microcode loading more robust. There were a few issues
           especially related to late loading which are now surfacing because
           late loading of the IB* microcodes addressing spectre issues has
           become more widely used.
      
         - Simplify and robustify the syscall handling in the entry code
      
         - Prevent kprobes on the entry trampoline code which lead to kernel
           crashes when the probe hits before CR3 is updated
      
         - Don't check microcode versions when running on hypervisors as they
           are considered as lying anyway.
      
         - Fix the 32bit objtool build and a coment typo"
