Commit 784d5699ed ("x86: move exports to actual definitions") removed the
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__fentry__) and EXPORT_SYMBOL(mcount) from x8664_ksyms_64.c,
and added EXPORT_SYMBOL(function_hook) in mcount_64.S instead. The problem
is that function_hook isn't a function at all, but a macro that is defined
as either mcount or __fentry__ depending on the support from gcc.
Originally, I thought this was a macro issue, like what __stringify()
is used for. But the problem is a bit deeper. The Makefile.build has
some magic that does post processing of files to create the CRC
bindings. It does some searches for EXPORT_SYMBOL() and because it
finds a macro name and not the actual functions, this causes
function_hook not to be converted into mcount or __fentry__ and they
are missed.
Instead of adding more magic to Makefile.build, just add
EXPORT_SYMBOL() for mcount and __fentry__ where the ifdef is used.
Since this is assembly and not C, it doesn't require being set after
the function is defined.

For mostly historical reasons, the x86 oops dump shows the raw stack
values:
...
[registers]
Stack:
ffff880079af7350 ffff880079905400 0000000000000000 ffffc900008f3ae0

Call Trace:
...
This seems to be an artifact from long ago, and probably isn't needed
anymore. It generally just adds noise to the dump, and it can be
actively harmful because it leaks kernel addresses.
Linus says:
"The stack dump actually goes back to forever, and it used to be
useful back in 1992 or so. But it used to be useful mainly because
stacks were simpler and we didn't have very good call traces anyway. I
definitely remember having used them - I just do not remember having
used them in the last ten+ years.
Of course, it's still true that if you can trigger an oops, you've
likely already lost the security game, but since the stack dump is so
useless, let's aim to just remove it and make games like the above
harder."
This also removes the related 'kstack=' cmdline option and the
'kstack_depth_to_print' sysctl.

Printing kernel text addresses in stack dumps is of questionable value,
especially now that address randomization is becoming common.
It can be a security issue because it leaks kernel addresses. It also
affects the usefulness of the stack dump. Linus says:
"I actually spend time cleaning up commit messages in logs, because
useless data that isn't actually information (random hex numbers) is
actively detrimental.
It makes commit logs less legible.
It also makes it harder to parse dumps.
It's not useful. That makes it actively bad.
I probably look at more oops reports than most people. I have not
found the hex numbers useful for the last five years, because they are
just randomized crap.
The stack content thing just makes code scroll off the screen etc, for
example."
The only real downside to removing these addresses is that they can be
used to disambiguate duplicate symbol names. However such cases are
rare, and the context of the stack dump should be enough to be able to
figure it out.
There's now a 'faddr2line' script which can be used to convert a
function address to a file name and line:
$ ./scripts/faddr2line ~/k/vmlinux write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60
write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60:
write_sysrq_trigger at drivers/tty/sysrq.c:1098
Or gdb can be used:
$ echo "list *write_sysrq_trigger+0x51" |gdb ~/k/vmlinux |grep "is in"
(gdb) 0xffffffff815b5d83 is in driver_probe_device (/home/jpoimboe/git/linux/drivers/base/dd.c:378).
(But note that when there are duplicate symbol names, gdb will only show
the first symbol it finds. faddr2line is recommended over gdb because
it handles duplicates and it also does function size checking.)
Here's an example of what a stack dump looks like after this change:

Yeah, I know, I know, this is a huuge patch and reviewing it is hard.
Sorry but this is the only way I could think of in which I can rewrite
the microcode patches loading procedure without breaking (knowingly) the
driver.
So maybe this patch is easier to review if one looks at the files after
the patch has been applied instead at the diff. Because then it becomes
pretty obvious:
* The BSP-loading path - load_ucode_bsp() is working independently from
the AP path now and it doesn't save any pointers or patches anymore -
it solely parses the builtin or initrd microcode and applies the patch.
That's it.
This fixes the CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY offset fun more solidly.
* The AP-loading path - load_ucode_ap() then goes and scans
builtin/initrd *again* for the microcode patches but it caches them this
time so that we don't have to do that scan on each AP but only once.
This simplifies the code considerably.
Then, when we save the microcode from the initrd/builtin, we go and
add the relevant patches to our own cache. The AMD side did do that
and now the Intel side does it too. So no more pointer copying and
blabla, we save the microcode patches ourselves and are independent from
initrd/builtin.
This whole conversion gives us other benefits like unifying the
initrd parsing into a single function: find_microcode_in_initrd() is
used by both.

kernel stack overflow (page fault): 0000 [#1] SMP

The NMI hit in the entry code right after setting up the stack pointer
from 'cpu_current_top_of_stack', so the kernel stack was empty. The
'guess' version of __unwind_start() attempted to dereference the "top of
stack" pointer, which is not actually *on* the stack.
Add a check in the guess unwinder to deal with an empty stack. (The
frame pointer unwinder already has such a check.)

Ondrej reported that IRQs stopped working in v4.7 on several
platforms. A typical scenario, from Ondrej's VT82C694X/694X, is:
ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKA] (IRQs 1 3 4 5 6 7 10 *11 12 14 15)
ACPI: No IRQ available for PCI Interrupt Link [LNKA]
8139too 0000:00:0f.0: PCI INT A: no GSI
We're using PIC routing, so acpi_irq_balance == 0, and LNKA is already
active at IRQ 11. In that case, acpi_pci_link_allocate() only tries
to use the active IRQ (IRQ 11) which also happens to be the SCI.
We should penalize the SCI by PIRQ_PENALTY_PCI_USING, but
irq_get_trigger_type(11) returns something other than
IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW, so we penalize it by PIRQ_PENALTY_ISA_ALWAYS
instead, which makes acpi_pci_link_allocate() assume the IRQ isn't
available and give up.
Add acpi_penalize_sci_irq() so platforms can tell us the SCI IRQ,
trigger, and polarity directly and we don't have to depend on
irq_get_trigger_type().

With frame pointers, when a task is interrupted, its stack is no longer
completely reliable because the function could have been interrupted
before it had a chance to save the previous frame pointer on the stack.
So the caller of the interrupted function could get skipped by a stack
trace.
This is problematic for live patching, which needs to know whether a
stack trace of a sleeping task can be relied upon. There's currently no
way to detect if a sleeping task was interrupted by a page fault
exception or preemption before it went to sleep.
Another issue is that when dumping the stack of an interrupted task, the
unwinder has no way of knowing where the saved pt_regs registers are, so
it can't print them.
This solves those issues by encoding the pt_regs pointer in the frame
pointer on entry from an interrupt or an exception.
This patch also updates the unwinder to be able to decode it, because
otherwise the unwinder would be broken by this change.
Note that this causes a change in the behavior of the unwinder: each
instance of a pt_regs on the stack is now considered a "frame". So
callers of unwind_get_return_address() will now get an occasional
'regs->ip' address that would have previously been skipped over.

The recent introduction of SA_X32/IA32 sa_flags added a check for
user_64bit_mode() into sigaction_compat_abi(). user_64bit_mode() is true
for native 64-bit processes and x32 processes.
Due to that the function returns w/o setting the SA_X32_ABI flag for X32
processes. In consequence the kernel attempts to deliver the signal to the
X32 process in native 64-bit mode causing the process to segfault.
Remove the check, so the actual check for X32 mode which sets the ABI flag

Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
"This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
implied by flags.
The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
being used. The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.
The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e0885465
("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
situation where this assumption did not hold.
See
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166
for the patch proposal"
Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.
[ This branch was rebased recently to add a few more acked-by's and
reviewed-by's ]

AVX512_4VNNIW - Vector instructions for deep learning enhanced word
variable precision.
AVX512_4FMAPS - Vector instructions for deep learning floating-point
single precision.
These new instructions are to be used in future Intel Xeon & Xeon Phi
processors. The bits 2&3 of CPUID[level:0x07, EDX] inform that new
instructions are supported by a processor.
The spec can be found in the Intel Software Developer Manual (SDM) or in
the Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference (ISE).
Define new feature flags to enumerate the new instructions in /proc/cpuinfo
accordingly to CPUID bits and add the required xsave extensions which are
required for proper operation.

This removes the 'write' argument from access_process_vm() and replaces
it with 'gup_flags' as use of this function previously silently implied
FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag.
We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising
behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
