AMD processors are not subject to the types of attacks that the kernel page table isolation feature protects against. The AMD microarchitecture does not allow memory references, including speculative references, that access higher privileged data when running in a lesser privileged mode when that access would result in a page fault. Disable page table isolation by default on AMD processors by not setting the X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE feature, which controls whether X86_FEATURE_PTI is set.

Since commit 68923cdc2eb3 ("MIPS: CM: Add cluster & block args to mips_cm_lock_other()"), mips_smp_send_ipi_mask() has used mips_cm_lock_other_cpu() with each CPU number, rather than mips_cm_lock_other() with the first VPE in each core. Prior to r6, multicore multithreaded systems such as dual-core dual-thread interAptivs with CPU Idle enabled (e.g. MIPS Creator Ci40) results in mips_cm_lock_other() repeatedly hitting WARN_ON(vp != 0). There doesn't appear to be anything fundamentally wrong about passing a non-zero VP/VPE number, even if it is a core's region that is locked into the other region before r6, so remove that particular WARN_ON().

[Linux-stable-mirror] Patch "alpha/PCI: Fix noname IRQ level detection" has been added to the 4.14-stable tree

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable(a)vger.kernel.org> know about it. >From 86be89939d11a84800f66e2a283b915b704bf33d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lorenzo Pieralisi <lorenzo.pieralisi(a)arm.com> Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2018 11:52:59 +0000 Subject: alpha/PCI: Fix noname IRQ level detection From: Lorenzo Pieralisi <lorenzo.pieralisi(a)arm.com> commit 86be89939d11a84800f66e2a283b915b704bf33d upstream. The conversion of the alpha architecture PCI host bridge legacy IRQ mapping/swizzling to the new PCI host bridge map/swizzle hooks carried out through: commit 0e4c2eeb758a ("alpha/PCI: Replace pci_fixup_irqs() call with host bridge IRQ mapping hooks") implies that IRQ for devices are now allocated through pci_assign_irq() function in pci_device_probe() that is called when a driver matching a device is found in order to probe the device through the device driver. Alpha noname platforms required IRQ level programming to be executed in sio_fixup_irq_levels(), that is called in noname_init_pci(), a platform hook called within a subsys_initcall. In noname_init_pci(), present IRQs are detected through sio_collect_irq_levels() that check the struct pci_dev->irq number to detect if an IRQ has been allocated for the device. By the time sio_collect_irq_levels() is called, some devices may still have not a matching driver loaded to match them (eg loadable module) therefore their IRQ allocation is still pending - which means that sio_collect_irq_levels() does not programme the correct IRQ level for those devices, causing their IRQ handling to be broken when the device driver is actually loaded and the device is probed. Fix the issue by adding code in the noname map_irq() function (noname_map_irq()) that, whilst mapping/swizzling the IRQ line, it also ensures that the correct IRQ level programming is executed at platform level, fixing the issue.

Commit bacf6b499e11 ("x86/mm: Use a struct to reduce parameters for SME PGD mapping") moved some parameters into a structure. The structure was large enough to trigger the stack protection canary in sme_encrypt_kernel which doesn't work this early, causing reboots. Mark sme_encrypt_kernel appropriately to not use the canary.

[Linux-stable-mirror] [PATCH v3] mtd: nand: brcmnand: Disable prefetch by default

by Kamal Dasu

Brcm nand controller prefetch feature needs to be disabled by default. Enabling affects performance on random reads as well as dma reads.
