Commit b70543a0b2b6("x86/idt: Move regular trap init to tables") moves
regular trap init for each trap vector into a table based
initialization. It introduced the initialization for vector X86_TRAP_BP
which was not in the code which it replaced. This breaks uprobe
functionality for x86_32; the probed program segfaults instead of handling
the probe proper.
The reason for this is that TRAP_BP is set up as system interrupt gate
(DPL3) in the early IDT and then replaced by a regular interrupt gate
(DPL0) in idt_setup_traps(). The DPL0 restriction causes the int3 trap
to fail with a #GP resulting in a SIGSEGV of the probed program.
On 64bit this does not cause a problem because the IDT entry is replaced
with a system interrupt gate (DPL3) with interrupt stack afterwards.
Remove X86_TRAP_BP from the def_idts table which is used in
idt_setup_traps(). Remove a redundant entry for X86_TRAP_NMI in def_idts
while at it. Tested on both x86_64 and x86_32.

The feature User-Mode Instruction Prevention present in recent Intel
processor prevents a group of instructions (sgdt, sidt, sldt, smsw, and
str) from being executed with CPL > 0. Otherwise, a general protection
fault is issued.
Rather than relaying to the user space the general protection fault caused
by the UMIP-protected instructions (in the form of a SIGSEGV signal), it
can be trapped and the instruction emulated to provide a dummy result.
This allows to both conserve the current kernel behavior and not reveal the
system resources that UMIP intends to protect (i.e., the locations of the
global descriptor and interrupt descriptor tables, the segment selectors of
the local descriptor table, the value of the task state register and the
contents of the CR0 register).
This emulation is needed because certain applications (e.g., WineHQ and
DOSEMU2) rely on this subset of instructions to function. Given that sldt
and str are not commonly used in programs that run on WineHQ or DOSEMU2,
they are not emulated. Also, emulation is provided only for 32-bit
processes; 64-bit processes that attempt to use the instructions that UMIP
protects will receive the SIGSEGV signal issued as a consequence of the
general protection fault.
The instructions protected by UMIP can be split in two groups. Those which
return a kernel memory address (sgdt and sidt) and those which return a
value (smsw, sldt and str; the last two not emulated).
For the instructions that return a kernel memory address, applications such
as WineHQ rely on the result being located in the kernel memory space, not
the actual location of the table. The result is emulated as a hard-coded
value that lies close to the top of the kernel memory. The limit for the
GDT and the IDT are set to zero.
The instruction smsw is emulated to return the value that the register CR0
has at boot time as set in the head_32.
Care is taken to appropriately emulate the results when segmentation is
used. That is, rather than relying on USER_DS and USER_CS, the function
insn_get_addr_ref() inspects the segment descriptor pointed by the
registers in pt_regs. This ensures that we correctly obtain the segment
base address and the address and operand sizes even if the user space
application uses a local descriptor table.

The ORC unwinder got confused by some kprobes changes, which isn't
surprising since the runtime code no longer matches vmlinux and the
stack was modified for kretprobes.
Until we have a way for generated code to register changes with the
unwinder, these types of warnings are inevitable. So just disable KASAN
checks for stack accesses in the ORC unwinder.

If the TSC has constant frequency then the delay calibration can be skipped
when it has been calibrated for a package already. This is checked in
calibrate_delay_is_known(), but that function is buggy in two aspects:
It returns 'false' if
(!tsc_disabled && !cpu_has(&cpu_data(cpu), X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC)
which is obviously the reverse of the intended check and the check for the
sibling mask cannot work either because the topology links have not been
set up yet.
Correct the condition and move the call to set_cpu_sibling_map() before
invoking calibrate_delay() so the sibling check works correctly.

We use alternatives_text_reserved() to check if the address is in
the fixed pieces of alternative reserved, but the problem is that
we don't hold the smp_alt mutex when call this function. So the list
traversal may encounter a deleted list_head if another path is doing
alternatives_smp_module_del().
One solution is that we can hold smp_alt mutex before call this
function, but the difficult point is that the callers of this
functions, arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(),
are called inside the text_mutex. So we must hold smp_alt mutex
before we go into these arch dependent code. But we can't now,
the smp_alt mutex is the arch dependent part, only x86 has it.
Maybe we can export another arch dependent callback to solve this.
But there is a simpler way to handle this problem. We can reuse the
text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules instead of using another mutex.
And all the arch dependent checks of kprobes are inside the text_mutex,
so it's safe now.

The AMD severity grading function was introduced in kernel 4.1. The
current logic can possibly give MCE_AR_SEVERITY for uncorrectable
errors in kernel context. The system may then get stuck in a loop as
memory_failure() will try to handle the bad kernel memory and find it
busy.
Return MCE_PANIC_SEVERITY for all UC errors IN_KERNEL context on AMD
systems.
After:
b2f9d678e2 ("x86/mce: Check for faults tagged in EXTABLE_CLASS_FAULT exception table entries")
was accepted in v4.6, this issue was masked because of the tail-end attempt
at kernel mode recovery in the #MC handler.
However, uncorrectable errors IN_KERNEL context should always be considered
unrecoverable and cause a panic.

made after the commit it has reverted.
To address this, make the code in question use arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
which also is used by cpufreq for reporting the current frequency of
CPUs and since that function doesn't really depend on cpufreq in any
way, drop the CONFIG_CPU_FREQ dependency for the object file
containing it.
Also refactor arch_freq_get_on_cpu() somewhat to avoid IPIs and
return cached values right away if it is called very often over a
short time (to prevent user space from triggering IPI storms through
it).

Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH:
"License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files
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 license headers were used, and references to
license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied
to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of
the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver)
producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.
Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review
of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537
files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the
scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license
identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any
determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with
the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained
>5 lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that
was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21

LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that
became the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected
a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply
(and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases,
confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.
The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in
part, so they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot
checks in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect
the correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial
patch version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch
license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the
applied SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
