To avoid include recursion hell move the do_softirq_own_stack() related content into a generic asm header and include it from all places in arch/ which need the prototype. This allows architectures to provide an inline implementation of do_softirq_own_stack() without introducing a lot of #ifdeffery all over the place. Signed-off-by:

To consolidate the interrupt entry/exit code vs. the other exceptions make handle_irq() an inline and handle both 64-bit and 32-bit mode. Preparatory change to move irq stack switching for 64-bit to C which allows to consolidate the entry exit handling by reusing the idtentry machinery both in ASM and C. Signed-off-by:

Both the 64bit and the 32bit handle_irq() implementation check the irq descriptor pointer with IS_ERR_OR_NULL() and return failure. That can be done simpler in the common do_IRQ() code. This reduces the 64bit handle_irq() function to a wrapper around generic_handle_irq_desc(). Invoke it directly from do_IRQ() to spare the extra function call.

irq_ctx_init() crashes hard on page allocation failures. While that's ok during early boot, it's just wrong in the CPU hotplug bringup code. Check the page allocation failure and return -ENOMEM and handle it at the call sites. On early boot the only way out is to BUG(), but on CPU hotplug there is no reason to crash, so just abort the operation. Rename the function to something more sensible while at it. Signed-off-by:

The next patch in this series will have to make the definition of irq_cpustat_t available to entering_irq(). Inclusion of asm/hardirq.h into asm/apic.h would cause circular header dependencies like asm/smp.h asm/apic.h asm/hardirq.h linux/irq.h linux/topology.h linux/smp.h asm/smp.h or linux/gfp.h linux/mmzone.h asm/mmzone.h asm/mmzone_64.h asm/smp.h asm/apic.h asm/hardirq.h linux/irq.h linux/irqdesc.h linux/kobject.h linux/sysfs.h linux/kernfs.h linux/idr.h linux/gfp.h and others. This causes compilation errors because of the header guards becoming effective in the second inclusion: symbols/macros that had been defined before wouldn't be available to intermediate headers in the #include chain anymore. A possible workaround would be to move the definition of irq_cpustat_t into its own header and include that from both, asm/hardirq.h and asm/apic.h. However, this wouldn't solve the real problem, namely asm/harirq.h unnecessarily pulling in all the linux/irq.h cruft: nothing in asm/hardirq.h itself requires it. Also, note that there are some other archs, like e.g. arm64, which don't have that #include in their asm/hardirq.h. Remove the linux/irq.h #include from x86' asm/hardirq.h. Fix resulting compilation errors by adding appropriate #includes to *.c files as needed. Note that some of these *.c files could be cleaned up a bit wrt. to their set of #includes, but that should better be done from separate patches, if at all. Signed-off-by:

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...

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace as needed. Build testing revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly. Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n). Signed-off-by:

As the actual pointer value is the same for the thread stack allocation and the thread_info, code that confused the two worked fine, but will break when the thread info is moved away from the stack allocation. It also looks very confusing. For example, the kprobe code wanted to know the current top of stack. To do that, it used this: (unsigned long)current_thread_info() + THREAD_SIZE which did indeed give the correct value. But it's not only a fairly nonsensical expression, it's also rather complex, especially since we actually have this: static inline unsigned long current_top_of_stack(void) which not only gives us the value we are interested in, but happens to be how "current_thread_info()" is currently defined as: (struct thread_info *)(current_top_of_stack() - THREAD_SIZE); so using current_thread_info() to figure out the top of the stack really is a very round-about thing to do. The other cases are just simpler confusion about task_thread_info() vs task_stack_page(), which currently return the same pointer - but if you want the stack page, you really should be using the latter one. And there was one entirely unused assignment of the current stack to a thread_info pointer. All cleaned up to make more sense today, and make it easier to move the thread_info away from the stack in the future. No semantic changes. Signed-off-by:

x86_64 uses a per_cpu variable kernel_stack to always point to the thread stack of current. This is where the thread_info is stored and is accessed from this location even when the irq or exception stack is in use. This removes the complexity of having to maintain the thread info on the stack when interrupts are running and having to copy the preempt_count and other fields to the interrupt stack. x86_32 uses the old method of copying the thread_info from the thread stack to the exception stack just before executing the exception. Having the two different requires #ifdefs and also the x86_32 way is a bit of a pain to maintain. By converting x86_32 to the same method of x86_64, we can remove #ifdefs, clean up the x86_32 code a little, and remove the overhead of the copy.

The i386 thread_info contains a previous_esp field that is used to daisy chain the different stacks for dump_stack() (ie. irq, softirq, thread stacks). The goal is to eventual make i386 handling of thread_info the same as x86_64, which means that the thread_info will not be in the stack but as a per_cpu variable. We will no longer depend on thread_info being able to daisy chain different stacks as it will only exist in one location (the thread stack). By moving previous_esp to the end of thread_info and referencing it as an offset instead of using a thread_info field, this becomes a stepping stone to moving the thread_info. The offset to get to the previous stack is rather ugly in this patch, but this is only temporary and the prev_esp will be changed in the next commit. This commit is more for sanity checks of the change.

Convert x86 to use a per-cpu preemption count. The reason for doing so is that accessing per-cpu variables is a lot cheaper than accessing thread_info variables. We still need to save/restore the actual preemption count due to PREEMPT_ACTIVE so we place the per-cpu __preempt_count variable in the same cache-line as the other hot __switch_to() variables such as current_task. NOTE: this save/restore is required even for !PREEMPT kernels as cond_resched() also relies on preempt_count's PREEMPT_ACTIVE to ignore task_struct::state. Also rename thread_info::preempt_count to ensure nobody is 'accidentally' still poking at it. Suggested-by:

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files, and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

If the irq happens in user mode, our kernel stack is empty (apart from the pt_regs themselves, of course), so there's no need or advantage to switch. And it really doesn't save any stack space, quite the reverse: it means that a nested interrupt cannot switch irq stacks. So instead of saving kernel stack space, it actually causes the potential for *more* stack usage. Also simplify the preemption count copy when we do switch stacks: just copy the whole preemption count, rather than just the softirq parts of it. There is no advantage to the partial copy: it is more effort to get a less correct result. Signed-off-by:

Currently, messages are just output on the detection of stack overflow, which is not sufficient for systems that need a high reliability. This is because in general the overflow may corrupt data, and the additional corruption may occur due to reading them unless systems stop. This patch adds the sysctl parameter kernel.panic_on_stackoverflow and causes a panic when detecting the overflows of kernel, IRQ and exception stacks except user stack according to the parameter. It is disabled by default. Signed-off-by:

Commit 22d4cd4c ("Allocate irq stacks seperate from percpu area") removed NUMA affinity of IRQ stacks as side-effect of the fix. Using alloc_pages_node() instead of __get_free_pages() is safe, even if the target node has no available LOWMEM pages : alloc_pages_node() fallbacks to another node. Signed-off-by:

The percpu allocator cannot handle alignments larger than one page. Allocate the irq stacks seperately, and only keep the pointers as percpu data. Signed-off-by:

The irq stacks, located in the percpu-area, need to be THREAD_SIZE aligned. Add the infrastucture to align percpu variables to larger-than-pagesize amounts within the percpu area, and use it to specify the alignment for the irq stacks. Also align the percpu area itself to THREAD_SIZE. This should make irq stacks work with 8K THREAD_SIZE. Signed-off-by:

As suggested by Steven Rostedt we need to align the IRQ stacks to the stack size, not just the page size to make them work for stack traces and other things that depend on finding the stack slot itself with 8k stacks. Signed-off-by:

IRQ stacks provide much better safety against unexpected stack use from interrupts, at the minimal downside of slightly higher memory usage. Enable irq stacks also for the default 8k stack on 32-bit kernels to minimize the problem of stack overflows through interrupt activity. This is what the 64-bit kernel and various other architectures already do. Signed-off-by:
