Implement MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED with IPIs using cpumask built
from all runqueues for which current thread's mm is the same as the
thread calling sys_membarrier. It executes faster than the non-expedited
variant (no blocking). It also works on NOHZ_FULL configurations.
Scheduler-wise, it requires a memory barrier before and after context
switching between processes (which have different mm). The memory
barrier before context switch is already present. For the barrier after
context switch:
* Our TSO archs can do RELEASE without being a full barrier. Look at
x86 spin_unlock() being a regular STORE for example. But for those
archs, all atomics imply smp_mb and all of them have atomic ops in
switch_mm() for mm_cpumask(), and on x86 the CR3 load acts as a full
barrier.
* From all weakly ordered machines, only ARM64 and PPC can do RELEASE,
the rest does indeed do smp_mb(), so there the spin_unlock() is a full
barrier and we're good.
* ARM64 has a very heavy barrier in switch_to(), which suffices.
* PPC just removed its barrier from switch_to(), but appears to be
talking about adding something to switch_mm(). So add a
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() for now, until this is settled on the PPC
side.
Changes since v3:
- Properly document the memory barriers provided by each architecture.
Changes since v2:
- Address comments from Peter Zijlstra,
- Add smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() after finish_lock_switch() in
finish_task_switch() to add the memory barrier we need after storing
to rq->curr. This is much simpler than the previous approach relying
on atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop(), which actually added a memory
barrier in the common case of switching between userspace processes.
- Return -EINVAL when MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED is used on a nohz_full
kernel, rather than having the whole membarrier system call returning
-ENOSYS. Indeed, CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED is compatible with nohz_full.
Adapt the CMD_QUERY mask accordingly.
Changes since v1:
- move membarrier code under kernel/sched/ because it uses the
scheduler runqueue,
- only add the barrier when we switch from a kernel thread. The case
where we switch from a user-space thread is already handled by
the atomic_dec_and_test() in mmdrop().
- add a comment to mmdrop() documenting the requirement on the implicit
memory barrier.

Both unwind_frame() and dump_backtrace() try to check whether a stack
address is sane to access, with very similar logic. Both will need
updating in order to handle overflow stacks.
Factor out this logic into a helper, so that we can avoid further

This patch enables arm64 to be built with vmap'd task and IRQ stacks.
As vmap'd stacks are mapped at page granularity, stacks must be a multiple of
PAGE_SIZE. This means that a 64K page kernel must use stacks of at least 64K in
size.
To minimize the increase in Image size, IRQ stacks are dynamically allocated at
boot time, rather than embedding the boot CPU's IRQ stack in the kernel image.

We allocate our IRQ stacks using a percpu array. This allows us to generate our
IRQ stack pointers with adr_this_cpu, but bloats the kernel Image with the boot
CPU's IRQ stack. Additionally, these are packed with other percpu variables,
and aren't guaranteed to have guard pages.
When we enable VMAP_STACK we'll want to vmap our IRQ stacks also, in order to
provide guard pages and to permit more stringent alignment requirements. Doing
so will require that we use a percpu pointer to each IRQ stack, rather than
allocating a percpu IRQ stack in the kernel image.
This patch updates our IRQ stack code to use a percpu pointer to the base of
each IRQ stack. This will allow us to change the way the stack is allocated
with minimal changes elsewhere. In some cases we may try to backtrace before
the IRQ stack pointers are initialised, so on_irq_stack() is updated to account
for this.
In testing with cyclictest, there was no measureable difference between using
adr_this_cpu (for irq_stack) and ldr_this_cpu (for irq_stack_ptr) in the IRQ
entry path.

In subsequent patches, we will detect stack overflow in our exception
entry code, by verifying the SP after it has been decremented to make
space for the exception regs.
This verification code is small, and we can minimize its impact by
placing it directly in the vectors. To avoid redundant modification of
the SP, we also need to move the initial decrement of the SP into the
vectors.
As a preparatory step, this patch introduces kernel_ventry, which
performs this decrement, and updates the entry code accordingly.
Subsequent patches will fold SP verification into kernel_ventry.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

For historical reasons, we leave the top 16 bytes of our task and IRQ
stacks unused, a practice used to ensure that the SP can always be
masked to find the base of the current stack (historically, where
thread_info could be found).
However, this is not necessary, as:
* When an exception is taken from a task stack, we decrement the SP by
S_FRAME_SIZE and stash the exception registers before we compare the
SP against the task stack. In such cases, the SP must be at least
S_FRAME_SIZE below the limit, and can be safely masked to determine
whether the task stack is in use.
* When transitioning to an IRQ stack, we'll place a dummy frame onto the
IRQ stack before enabling asynchronous exceptions, or executing code
we expect to trigger faults. Thus, if an exception is taken from the
IRQ stack, the SP must be at least 16 bytes below the limit.
* We no longer mask the SP to find the thread_info, which is now found
via sp_el0. Note that historically, the offset was critical to ensure
that cpu_switch_to() found the correct stack for new threads that
hadn't yet executed ret_from_fork().
Given that, this initial offset serves no purpose, and can be removed.
This brings us in-line with other architectures (e.g. x86) which do not
rely on this masking.

Our __die() implementation tries to dump the stack memory, in addition
to a backtrace, which is problematic.
For contemporary 16K stacks, this can be a lot of data, which can take a
long time to dump, and can push other useful context out of the kernel's
printk ringbuffer (and/or a user's scrollback buffer on an attached
console).
Additionally, the code implicitly assumes that the SP is on the task's
stack, and tries to dump everything between the SP and the highest task
stack address. When the SP points at an IRQ stack (or is corrupted),
this makes the kernel attempt to dump vast amounts of VA space. With
vmap'd stacks, this may result in erroneous accesses to peripherals.
This patch removes the memory dump, leaving us to rely on the backtrace,
and other means of dumping stack memory such as kdump.

As it turns out, the unwind code is slightly broken, and probably has
been for a while. The problem is in the dumping of the exception stack,
which is intended to dump the contents of the pt_regs struct at each
level in the call stack where an exception was taken and routed to a
routine marked as __exception (which means its stack frame is right
below the pt_regs struct on the stack).
'Right below the pt_regs struct' is ill defined, though: the unwind
code assigns 'frame pointer + 0x10' to the .sp member of the stackframe
struct at each level, and dump_backtrace() happily dereferences that as
the pt_regs pointer when encountering an __exception routine. However,
the actual size of the stack frame created by this routine (which could
be one of many __exception routines we have in the kernel) is not known,
and so frame.sp is pretty useless to figure out where struct pt_regs
really is.
So it seems the only way to ensure that we can find our struct pt_regs
when walking the stack frames is to put it at a known fixed offset of
the stack frame pointer that is passed to such __exception routines.
The simplest way to do that is to put it inside pt_regs itself, which is
the main change implemented by this patch. As a bonus, doing this allows
us to get rid of a fair amount of cruft related to walking from one stack
to the other, which is especially nice since we intend to introduce yet
another stack for overflow handling once we add support for vmapped
stacks. It also fixes an inconsistency where we only add a stack frame
pointing to ELR_EL1 if we are executing from the IRQ stack but not when
we are executing from the task stack.
To consistly identify exceptions regs even in the presence of exceptions
taken from entry code, we must check whether the next frame was created
by entry text, rather than whether the current frame was crated by
exception text.
To avoid backtracing using PCs that fall in the idmap, or are controlled
by userspace, we must explcitly zero the FP and LR in startup paths, and
must ensure that the frame embedded in pt_regs is zeroed upon entry from
EL0. To avoid these NULL entries showin in the backtrace, unwind_frame()
is updated to avoid them.

Our IRQ_STACK_PTR() and on_irq_stack() helpers both take a cpu argument,
used to generate a percpu address. In all cases, they are passed
{raw_,}smp_processor_id(), so this parameter is redundant.
Since {raw_,}smp_processor_id() use a percpu variable internally, this
approach means we generate a percpu offset to find the current cpu, then
use this to index an array of percpu offsets, which we then use to find
the current CPU's IRQ stack pointer. Thus, most of the work is
redundant.
Instead, we can consistently use raw_cpu_ptr() to generate the CPU's
irq_stack pointer by simply adding the percpu offset to the irq_stack
address, which is simpler in both respects.

In most cases, our exception entry assembly branches to C handlers with
a BL instruction, but in cases where we do not expect to return, we use
B instead.
While this is correct today, it means that backtraces for fatal
exceptions miss the entry assembly (as the LR is stale at the point we
call C code), while non-fatal exceptions have the entry assembly in the
LR. In subsequent patches, we will need the LR to be set in these cases
in order to backtrace reliably.
This patch updates these sites to use a BL, ensuring consistency, and
preparing for backtrace rework. An ASM_BUG() is added after each of
these new BLs, which both catches unexpected returns, and ensures that
the LR value doesn't point to another function label.

Because the in-syscall check in do_signal() is changed from >= 0 to

if syscallno is set to values less than -1 by a tracer. However,
this is not different from the behaviour that is already observable
if a tracer sets syscallno to a value >= __NR_(compat_)syscalls.

The upper 32 bits of the syscallno field in thread_struct are
handled inconsistently, being sometimes zero extended and sometimes
sign-extended. In fact, only the lower 32 bits seem to have any
real significance for the behaviour of the code: it's been OK to
handle the upper bits inconsistently because they don't matter.
Currently, the only place I can find where those bits are
significant is in calling trace_sys_enter(), which may be
unintentional: for example, if a compat tracer attempts to cancel a
syscall by passing -1 to (COMPAT_)PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL at the
syscall-enter-stop, it will be traced as syscall 4294967295
rather than -1 as might be expected (and as occurs for a native
tracer doing the same thing). Elsewhere, reads of syscallno cast
it to an int or truncate it.
There's also a conspicuous amount of code and casting to bodge
around the fact that although semantically an int, syscallno is
stored as a u64.
Let's not pretend any more.
In order to preserve the stp x instruction that stores the syscall
number in entry.S, this patch special-cases the layout of struct
pt_regs for big endian so that the newly 32-bit syscallno field
maps onto the low bits of the stored value. This is not beautiful,
but benchmarking of the getpid syscall on Juno suggests indicates a
minor slowdown if the stp is split into an stp x and stp w.

Support for kernel-mode NEON to be nested and/or used in hardirq

This patch implements an arm64 may_use_simd() function to allow

result of these changes, so they are removed too.
The save/restore model is changed to operate directly on
task_struct without additional percpu storage. This simplifies the
code and saves a bit of memory, but means that softirqs must now be
disabled when manipulating the task fpsimd state from task context:
correspondingly, preempt_{en,dis}sable() calls are upgraded to
local_bh_{en,dis}able() as appropriate. fpsimd_thread_switch()
already runs with hardirqs disabled and so is already protected
from softirqs.
These changes should make it easier to support kernel-mode NEON in
the presence of the Scalable Vector extension in the future.

In order to be able to cope with kernel-mode NEON being unavailable
in hardirq/nmi context and non-nestable, we need special handling
for EFI runtime service calls that may be made during an interrupt
that interrupted a kernel_neon_begin()..._end() block. This will
occur if the kernel tries to write diagnostic data to EFI
persistent storage during a panic triggered by an NMI for example.
EFI runtime services specify an ABI that clobbers the FPSIMD state,
rather than being able to use it optionally as an accelerator.
This means that EFI is really a special case and can be handled
specially.
To enable EFI calls from interrupts, this patch creates dedicated
__efi_fpsimd_{begin,end}() helpers solely for this purpose, which
save/restore to a separate percpu buffer if called in a context
where kernel_neon_begin() is not usable.

__this_cpu_ ops are not used consistently with regard to this_cpu_
ops in a couple of places in fpsimd.c.
Since preemption is explicitly disabled in
fpsimd_restore_current_state() and fpsimd_update_current_state(),
this patch converts this_cpu_ ops in those functions to __this_cpu_
ops. This doesn't save cost on arm64, but benefits from additional
assertions in the core code.

Multiple architectures define this as a trivial function, and I'm adding
another one as part of the RISC-V port. Add a __weak version of
pcibios_align_resource() and delete the now-obselete ones in a handful of
ports.
The only functional change should be that a handful of ports used to export
pcibios_fixup_bus(). Only some architectures export this, so I just
dropped it.

In an ideal world, CNTFRQ_EL0 always contains the timer frequency
for the kernel to use. Sadly, we get quite a few broken systems
where the firmware authors cannot be bothered to program that
register on all CPUs, and rely on DT to provide that frequency.
So when trapping CNTFRQ_EL0, make sure to return the actual rate
(as known by the kernel), and not CNTFRQ_EL0.

struct siginfo is a union and the kernel since 2.4 has been hiding a union
tag in the high 16bits of si_code using the values:
__SI_KILL
__SI_TIMER
__SI_POLL
__SI_FAULT
__SI_CHLD
__SI_RT
__SI_MESGQ
__SI_SYS
While this looks plausible on the surface, in practice this situation has
not worked well.
- Injected positive signals are not copied to user space properly
unless they have these magic high bits set.
- Injected positive signals are not reported properly by signalfd
unless they have these magic high bits set.
- These kernel internal values leaked to userspace via ptrace_peek_siginfo
- It was possible to inject these kernel internal values and cause the
the kernel to misbehave.
- Kernel developers got confused and expected these kernel internal values
in userspace in kernel self tests.
- Kernel developers got confused and set si_code to __SI_FAULT which
is SI_USER in userspace which causes userspace to think an ordinary user
sent the signal and that it was not kernel generated.
- The values make it impossible to reorganize the code to transform
siginfo_copy_to_user into a plain copy_to_user. As si_code must
be massaged before being passed to userspace.
So remove these kernel internal si codes and make the kernel code simpler
and more maintainable.
To replace these kernel internal magic si_codes introduce the helper
function siginfo_layout, that takes a signal number and an si_code and
computes which union member of siginfo is being used. Have
siginfo_layout return an enumeration so that gcc will have enough
information to warn if a switch statement does not handle all of union
members.
A couple of architectures have a messed up ABI that defines signal
specific duplications of SI_USER which causes more special cases in
siginfo_layout than I would like. The good news is only problem
architectures pay the cost.
Update all of the code that used the previous magic __SI_ values to
use the new SIL_ values and to call siginfo_layout to get those
values. Escept where not all of the cases are handled remove the
defaults in the switch statements so that if a new case is missed in
the future the lack will show up at compile time.
Modify the code that copies siginfo si_code to userspace to just copy
the value and not cast si_code to a short first. The high bits are no
longer used to hold a magic union member.
Fixup the siginfo header files to stop including the __SI_ values in
their constants and for the headers that were missing it to properly
update the number of si_codes for each signal type.
The fixes to copy_siginfo_from_user32 implementations has the
interesting property that several of them perviously should never have
worked as the __SI_ values they depended up where kernel internal.
With that dependency gone those implementations should work much
better.
The idea of not passing the __SI_ values out to userspace and then
not reinserting them has been tested with criu and criu worked without
changes.

In current die(), the irq is disabled for __die() handle, not
including the possible panic() handling. Since the log in __die()
can take several hundreds ms, new irq might come and interrupt
current die().
If the process calling die() holds some critical resource, and some
other process scheduled later also needs it, then it would deadlock.
The first panic will not be executed.
So here disable irq for the whole flow of die().
