Commit:
f31a9f7c71 ("x86/xsaves: Use xsaves/xrstors to save and restore xsave area")
introduced alternative instructions for XSAVES/XRSTORS and commit:
adb9d526e9 ("x86/xsaves: Add xsaves and xrstors support for booting time")
added support for the XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions at boot time.
Unfortunately both failed to properly protect them against faulting:
The 'xstate_fault' macro will use the closest label named '1'
backward and that ends up in the .altinstr_replacement section
rather than in .text. This means that the kernel will never find
in the __ex_table the .text address where this instruction might
fault, leading to serious problems if userspace manages to
trigger the fault.

The 64-bit entry code was using six stack slots less by not
saving/restoring registers which are callee-preserved according
to the C ABI, and was not allocating space for them.
Only when syscalls needed a complete "struct pt_regs" was
the complete area allocated and filled in.
As an additional twist, on interrupt entry a "slightly less
truncated pt_regs" trick is used, to make nested interrupt
stacks easier to unwind.
This proved to be a source of significant obfuscation and subtle
bugs. For example, 'stub_fork' had to pop the return address,
extend the struct, save registers, and push return address back.
Ugly. 'ia32_ptregs_common' pops return address and "returns" via
jmp insn, throwing a wrench into CPU return stack cache.
This patch changes the code to always allocate a complete
"struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack. The saving of registers
is still done lazily.
"Partial pt_regs" trick on interrupt stack is retained.
Macros which manipulate "struct pt_regs" on stack are reworked:
- ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK allocates the structure.
- SAVE_C_REGS saves to it those registers which are clobbered
by C code.
- SAVE_EXTRA_REGS saves to it all other registers.
- Corresponding RESTORE_* and REMOVE_PT_GPREGS_FROM_STACK macros
reverse it.
'ia32_ptregs_common', 'stub_fork' and friends lost their ugly dance
with the return pointer.
LOAD_ARGS32 in ia32entry.S now uses symbolic stack offsets
instead of magic numbers.
'error_entry' and 'save_paranoid' now use SAVE_C_REGS +
SAVE_EXTRA_REGS instead of having it open-coded yet again.
Patch was run-tested: 64-bit executables, 32-bit executables,
strace works.
Timing tests did not show measurable difference in 32-bit
and 64-bit syscalls.

Pull alternative instructions framework improvements from Borislav Petkov:
"A more involved rework of the alternatives framework to be able to
pad instructions and thus make using the alternatives macros more
straightforward and without having to figure out old and new instruction
sizes but have the toolchain figure that out for us.
Furthermore, it optimizes JMPs used so that fetch and decode can be
relieved with smaller versions of the JMPs, where possible.
Some stats:
x86_64 defconfig:
Alternatives sites total: 2478
Total padding added (in Bytes): 6051
The padding is currently done for:
X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS
X86_FEATURE_ERMS
X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC
X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC
X86_FEATURE_SMAP
This is with the latest version of the patchset. Of course, on each
machine the alternatives sites actually being patched are a proper

This is based on a patch originally by hpa.
With the current improvements to the alternatives, we can simply use %P1
as a mem8 operand constraint and rely on the toolchain to generate the
proper instruction sizes. For example, on 32-bit, where we use an empty
old instruction we get:
apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c104648b, len: 4), repl: (c195566c, len: 4)
c104648b: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90
c195566c: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 4b 5c
...
apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c18e09b4, len: 3), repl: (c1955948, len: 3)
c18e09b4: alt_insn: 90 90 90

Up until now we had to pay attention to relative JMPs in alternatives
about how their relative offset gets computed so that the jump target
is still correct. Or, as it is the case for near CALLs (opcode e8), we
still have to go and readjust the offset at patching time.
What is more, the static_cpu_has_safe() facility had to forcefully
generate 5-byte JMPs since we couldn't rely on the compiler to generate
properly sized ones so we had to force the longest ones. Worse than
that, sometimes it would generate a replacement JMP which is longer than
the original one, thus overwriting the beginning of the next instruction
at patching time.
So, in order to alleviate all that and make using JMPs more
straight-forward we go and pad the original instruction in an
alternative block with NOPs at build time, should the replacement(s) be
longer. This way, alternatives users shouldn't pay special attention
so that original and replacement instruction sizes are fine but the
assembler would simply add padding where needed and not do anything
otherwise.
As a second aspect, we go and recompute JMPs at patching time so that we
can try to make 5-byte JMPs into two-byte ones if possible. If not, we
still have to recompute the offsets as the replacement JMP gets put far
away in the .altinstr_replacement section leading to a wrong offset if
copied verbatim.
For example, on a locally generated kernel image
old insn VA: 0xffffffff810014bd, CPU feat: X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS, size: 2
__switch_to:
ffffffff810014bd: eb 21 jmp ffffffff810014e0
repl insn: size: 5
ffffffff81d0b23c: e9 b1 62 2f ff jmpq ffffffff810014f2
gets corrected to a 2-byte JMP:
apply_alternatives: feat: 3*32+21, old: (ffffffff810014bd, len: 2), repl: (ffffffff81d0b23c, len: 5)
alt_insn: e9 b1 62 2f ff
recompute_jumps: next_rip: ffffffff81d0b241, tgt_rip: ffffffff810014f2, new_displ: 0x00000033, ret len: 2
converted to: eb 33 90 90 90
and a 5-byte JMP:
old insn VA: 0xffffffff81001516, CPU feat: X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS, size: 2
__switch_to:
ffffffff81001516: eb 30 jmp ffffffff81001548
repl insn: size: 5
ffffffff81d0b241: e9 10 63 2f ff jmpq ffffffff81001556
gets shortened into a two-byte one:
apply_alternatives: feat: 3*32+21, old: (ffffffff81001516, len: 2), repl: (ffffffff81d0b241, len: 5)
alt_insn: e9 10 63 2f ff
recompute_jumps: next_rip: ffffffff81d0b246, tgt_rip: ffffffff81001556, new_displ: 0x0000003e, ret len: 2
converted to: eb 3e 90 90 90
... and so on.
This leads to a net win of around
40ish replacements * 3 bytes savings =~ 120 bytes of I$
on an AMD guest which means some savings of precious instruction cache
bandwidth. The padding to the shorter 2-byte JMPs are single-byte NOPs
which on smart microarchitectures means discarding NOPs at decode time
and thus freeing up execution bandwidth.
Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
Up until now we have always paid attention to make sure the length of
the new instruction replacing the old one is at least less or equal to
the length of the old instruction. If the new instruction is longer, at
the time it replaces the old instruction it will overwrite the beginning
of the next instruction in the kernel image and cause your pants to
catch fire.
So instead of having to pay attention, teach the alternatives framework
to pad shorter old instructions with NOPs at buildtime - but only in the
case when
len(old instruction(s)) < len(new instruction(s))
and add nothing in the >= case. (In that case we do add_nops() when
patching).
This way the alternatives user shouldn't have to care about instruction
sizes and simply use the macros.
Add asm ALTERNATIVE* flavor macros too, while at it.
Also, we need to save the pad length in a separate struct alt_instr
member for NOP optimization and the way to do that reliably is to carry
the pad length instead of trying to detect whether we're looking at
single-byte NOPs or at pathological instruction offsets like e9 90 90 90
90, for example, which is a valid instruction.

Add support for the new pcommit (persistent commit) instruction.
This instruction was announced in the document "Intel
Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference"
with reference number 319433-022:
https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/0d/53/319433-022.pdf
The pcommit instruction ensures that data that has been flushed
from the processor's cache hierarchy with clwb, clflushopt or
clflush is accepted to memory and is durable on the DIMM. The
primary use case for this is persistent memory.
This function shows how to properly use clwb/clflushopt/clflush
and pcommit with appropriate fencing:
void flush_and_commit_buffer(void *vaddr, unsigned int size)
{
void *vend = vaddr + size - 1;
for (; vaddr < vend; vaddr += boot_cpu_data.x86_clflush_size)
clwb(vaddr);
/* Flush any possible final partial cacheline */
clwb(vend);
/*
* sfence to order clwb/clflushopt/clflush cache flushes
* mfence via mb() also works
*/
wmb();
/* pcommit and the required sfence for ordering */
pcommit_sfence();
}
After this function completes the data pointed to by vaddr is
has been accepted to memory and will be durable if the vaddr
points to persistent memory.
Pcommit must always be ordered by an mfence or sfence, so to
help simplify things we include both the pcommit and the
required sfence in the alternatives generated by
pcommit_sfence(). The other option is to keep them separated,
but on platforms that don't support pcommit this would then turn
into:
void flush_and_commit_buffer(void *vaddr, unsigned int size)
{
void *vend = vaddr + size - 1;
for (; vaddr < vend; vaddr += boot_cpu_data.x86_clflush_size)
clwb(vaddr);
/* Flush any possible final partial cacheline */
clwb(vend);
/*
* sfence to order clwb/clflushopt/clflush cache flushes
* mfence via mb() also works
*/
wmb();
nop(); /* from pcommit(), via alternatives */
/*
* sfence to order pcommit
* mfence via mb() also works
*/
wmb();
}
This is still correct, but now you've got two fences separated
by only a nop. With the commit and the fence together in
pcommit_sfence() you avoid the final unneeded fence.

In a 64-bit PV guest, userspace page table entries have _PAGE_GLOBAL set

entry (e.g., a write to a read-only mapping) would be misinterpreted as
a NUMA hinting fault and the fault would not be correctly handled,

Initially, this started with the yet another report about a race
condition in the CMCI storm adaptive period length thing. Yes, we have
to admit, it is fragile and error prone. So let's simplify it.
The simpler logic is: now, after we enter storm mode, we go straight to
polling with CMCI_STORM_INTERVAL, i.e. once a second. We remain in storm
mode as long as we see errors being logged while polling.
Theoretically, if we see an uninterrupted error stream, we will remain
in storm mode indefinitely and keep polling the MSRs.
However, when the storm is actually a burst of errors, once we have
logged them all, we back out of it after ~5 mins of polling and no more
errors logged.
If we encounter an error during those 5 minutes, we reset the polling
interval to 5 mins.
Making machine_check_poll() return a bool and denoting whether it has
seen an error or not lets us simplify a bunch of code and move the storm
handling private to mce_intel.c.
Some minor cleanups while at it.

Commit:
e2b32e6785 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address")
makes the base address for module to be unconditionally randomized in
case when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is defined and "nokaslr" option isn't
present on the commandline.
This is not consistent with how choose_kernel_location() decides whether
it will randomize kernel load base.
Namely, CONFIG_HIBERNATION disables kASLR (unless "kaslr" option is
explicitly specified on kernel commandline), which makes the state space
larger than what module loader is looking at. IOW CONFIG_HIBERNATION &&
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is a valid config option, kASLR wouldn't be applied
by default in that case, but module loader is not aware of that.
Instead of fixing the logic in module.c, this patch takes more generic
aproach. It introduces a new bootparam setup data_type SETUP_KASLR and
uses that to pass the information whether kaslr has been applied during
kernel decompression, and sets a global 'kaslr_enabled' variable
accordingly, so that any kernel code (module loading, livepatching, ...)
can make decisions based on its value.
x86 module loader is converted to make use of this flag.

Intel's Quark X1000 SoC contains a set of registers called
Isolated Memory Regions. IMRs are accessed over the IOSF mailbox
interface. IMRs are areas carved out of memory that define
read/write access rights to the various system agents within the
Quark system. For a given agent in the system it is possible to
specify if that agent may read or write an area of memory
defined by an IMR with a granularity of 1 KiB.
Quark_SecureBootPRM_330234_001.pdf section 4.5 details the
concept of IMRs quark-x1000-datasheet.pdf section 12.7.4 details
the implementation of IMRs in silicon.
eSRAM flush, CPU Snoop write-only, CPU SMM Mode, CPU non-SMM
mode, RMU and PCIe Virtual Channels (VC0 and VC1) can have
individual read/write access masks applied to them for a given
memory region in Quark X1000. This enables IMRs to treat each
memory transaction type listed above on an individual basis and
to filter appropriately based on the IMR access mask for the
memory region. Quark supports eight IMRs.
Since all of the DMA capable SoC components in the X1000 are
mapped to VC0 it is possible to define sections of memory as
invalid for DMA write operations originating from Ethernet, USB,
SD and any other DMA capable south-cluster component on VC0.
Similarly it is possible to mark kernel memory as non-SMM mode
read/write only or to mark BIOS runtime memory as SMM mode
accessible only depending on the particular memory footprint on
a given system.
On an IMR violation Quark SoC X1000 systems are configured to
reset the system, so ensuring that the IMR memory map is
consistent with the EFI provided memory map is critical to
ensure no IMR violations reset the system.
The API for accessing IMRs is based on MTRR code but doesn't
provide a /proc or /sys interface to manipulate IMRs. Defining
the size and extent of IMRs is exclusively the domain of
in-kernel code.
Quark firmware sets up a series of locked IMRs around pieces of
memory that firmware owns such as ACPI runtime data. During boot
a series of unlocked IMRs are placed around items in memory to
guarantee no DMA modification of those items can take place.
Grub also places an unlocked IMR around the kernel boot params
data structure and compressed kernel image. It is necessary for
the kernel to tear down all unlocked IMRs in order to ensure
that the kernel's view of memory passed via the EFI memory map
is consistent with the IMR memory map. Without tearing down all
unlocked IMRs on boot transitory IMRs such as those used to
protect the compressed kernel image will cause IMR violations and system reboots.
The IMR init code tears down all unlocked IMRs and sets a
protective IMR around the kernel .text and .rodata as one
contiguous block. This sanitizes the IMR memory map with respect
to the EFI memory map and protects the read-only portions of the
kernel from unwarranted DMA access.

Storage-class specifier 'extern' is redundant in front of the function
declaration. According to the C specification it has the same meaning as
if not present at all. So remove it.

Paravirt spinlock clears slowpath flag after doing unlock.
As explained by Linus currently it does:
prev = *lock;
add_smp(&lock->tickets.head, TICKET_LOCK_INC);
/* add_smp() is a full mb() */
if (unlikely(lock->tickets.tail & TICKET_SLOWPATH_FLAG))
__ticket_unlock_slowpath(lock, prev);
which is *exactly* the kind of things you cannot do with spinlocks,
because after you've done the "add_smp()" and released the spinlock
for the fast-path, you can't access the spinlock any more. Exactly
because a fast-path lock might come in, and release the whole data
structure.
Linus suggested that we should not do any writes to lock after unlock(),
and we can move slowpath clearing to fastpath lock.
So this patch implements the fix with:
1. Moving slowpath flag to head (Oleg):
Unlocked locks don't care about the slowpath flag; therefore we can keep
it set after the last unlock, and clear it again on the first (try)lock.
-- this removes the write after unlock. note that keeping slowpath flag would
result in unnecessary kicks.
By moving the slowpath flag from the tail to the head ticket we also avoid
the need to access both the head and tail tickets on unlock.
2. use xadd to avoid read/write after unlock that checks the need for
unlock_kick (Linus):
We further avoid the need for a read-after-release by using xadd;
the prev head value will include the slowpath flag and indicate if we
need to do PV kicking of suspended spinners -- on modern chips xadd
isn't (much) more expensive than an add + load.

Pull x86 perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This series tightens up RDPMC permissions: currently even highly
sandboxed x86 execution environments (such as seccomp) have permission
to execute RDPMC, which may leak various perf events / PMU state such
as timing information and other CPU execution details.
This 'all is allowed' RDPMC mode is still preserved as the
(non-default) /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc=2 setting. The new default is
that RDPMC access is only allowed if a perf event is mmap-ed (which is
needed to correctly interpret RDPMC counter values in any case).
As a side effect of these changes CR4 handling is cleaned up in the
x86 code and a shadow copy of the CR4 value is added.
The extra CR4 manipulation adds ~ <50ns to the context switch cost
between rdpmc-capable and rdpmc-non-capable mms"

Recently instrumentation of builtin functions calls was removed from GCC
5.0. To check the memory accessed by such functions, userspace asan
always uses interceptors for them.
So now we should do this as well. This patch declares
memset/memmove/memcpy as weak symbols. In mm/kasan/kasan.c we have our
own implementation of those functions which checks memory before accessing
it.
Default memset/memmove/memcpy now now always have aliases with '__'
prefix. For files that built without kasan instrumentation (e.g.
mm/slub.c) original mem* replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants,
cause we don't want to check memory accesses there.
