A kernel which boots in 5-level paging mode crashes in a small percentage
of cases if KASLR is enabled.
This issue was tracked down to the case when the kernel image unpacks in a
way that it crosses an 1G boundary. The crash is caused by an overrun of
the PMD page table in __startup_64() and corruption of P4D page table
allocated next to it. This particular issue is not visible with 4-level
paging as P4D page tables are not used.
But the P4D and the PUD calculation have similar problems.
The PMD index calculation is wrong due to operator precedence, which fails
to confine the PMDs in the PMD array on wrap around.
The P4D calculation for 5-level paging and the PUD calculation calculate
the first index correctly, but then blindly increment it which causes the
same issue when a kernel image is located across a 512G and for 5-level
paging across a 46T boundary.
This wrap around mishandling was introduced when these parts moved from
assembly to C.
Restore it to the correct behaviour.

Currently pt_regs on x86_32 has an oddity in that kernel regs
(!user_mode(regs)) are short two entries (esp/ss). This means that any
code trying to use them (typically: regs->sp) needs to jump through
some unfortunate hoops.
Change the entry code to fix this up and create a full pt_regs frame.
This then simplifies various trampolines in ftrace and kprobes, the
stack unwinder, ptrace, kdump and kgdb.
Much thanks to Josh for help with the cleanups!

The code flow around the return from interrupt preemption point seems
needlessly complicated.
There is only one site jumping to resume_kernel, and none (outside of
resume_kernel) jumping to restore_all_kernel. Inline resume_kernel
in restore_all_kernel and avoid the CONFIG_PREEMPT dependent label.

Without 'set -e', shell scripts continue running even after any
error occurs. The missed 'set -e' is a typical bug in shell scripting.
For example, when a disk space shortage occurs while this script is
running, it actually ends up with generating a truncated capflags.c.
Yet, mkcapflags.sh continues running and exits with 0. So, the build
system assumes it has succeeded.
It will not be re-generated in the next invocation of Make since its
timestamp is newer than that of any of the source files.
Add 'set -e' so that any error in this script is caught and propagated
to the build system.
Since 9c2af1c737 ("kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target"),
make automatically deletes the target on any failure. So, the broken
capflags.c will be deleted automatically.

Adding perf_msr_probe function to provide interface for
checking up on MSR register and set the related attribute
group visibility.
User defines following struct for each MSR register:
struct perf_msr {
u64 msr;
struct attribute_group *grp;
bool (*test)(int idx, void *data);
bool no_check;
};
Where:
msr - is the MSR address
attrs - is attribute groups array to add if the check passed
test - is test function pointer
no_check - is bool that bypass the check and adds the
attribute without any test
The array of struct perf_msr is passed into:
perf_msr_probe(struct perf_msr *msr, int cnt, bool zero, void *data)
Together with:
cnt - which is the number of struct msr array elements
data - which is user pointer passed to the test function
zero - allow counters that returns zero on rdmsr
The perf_msr_probe will executed test code, read the MSR and
check the value is != 0. If all these tests pass, related
attribute group is kept visible.
Also adding PMU_EVENT_GROUP macro helper to define attribute
group for single attribute. It will be used in following patches.

IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] determines the maximum time in TSC-quanta
that processor can stay in C0.1 or C0.2. A zero value means no maximum
time.
Each instruction sets its own deadline in the instruction's implicit
input EDX:EAX value. The instruction wakes up if the time-stamp counter
reaches or exceeds the specified deadline, or the umwait maximum time
expires, or a store happens in the monitored address range in umwait.
The administrator can write an unsigned 32-bit number to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/umwait_control/max_time to change the default
value. Note that a value of zero means there is no limit. The lower two
bits of the value must be zero.

C0.2 state in umwait and tpause instructions can be enabled or disabled
on a processor through IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR register.
By default, C0.2 is enabled and the user wait instructions results in
lower power consumption with slower wakeup time.
But in real time systems which require faster wakeup time although power
savings could be smaller, the administrator needs to disable C0.2 and all
umwait invocations from user applications use C0.1.
Create a sysfs interface which allows the administrator to control C0.2
state during run time.
Andy Lutomirski suggested to turn off local irqs before writing the MSR to
ensure the cached control value is not changed by a concurrent sysfs write
from a different CPU via IPI.

umwait or tpause allows the processor to enter a light-weight
power/performance optimized state (C0.1 state) or an improved
power/performance optimized state (C0.2 state) for a period specified by
the instruction or until the system time limit or until a store to the
monitored address range in umwait.
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR register allows the OS to enable/disable C0.2 on
the processor and to set the maximum time the processor can reside in C0.1
or C0.2.
By default C0.2 is enabled so the user wait instructions can enter the
C0.2 state to save more power with slower wakeup time.
Andy Lutomirski proposed to set the maximum umwait time to 100000 cycles by
default. A quote from Andy:
"What I want to avoid is the case where it works dramatically differently
on NO_HZ_FULL systems as compared to everything else. Also, UMWAIT may
behave a bit differently if the max timeout is hit, and I'd like that
path to get exercised widely by making it happen even on default
configs."
A sysfs interface to adjust the time and the C0.2 enablement is provided in
a follow up change.
[ tglx: Renamed MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL_MAX_TIME to
MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL_TIME_MASK because the constant is used as
mask throughout the code.

umonitor, umwait, and tpause are a set of user wait instructions.
umonitor arms address monitoring hardware using an address. The
address range is determined by using CPUID.0x5. A store to
an address within the specified address range triggers the
monitoring hardware to wake up the processor waiting in umwait.
umwait instructs the processor to enter an implementation-dependent
optimized state while monitoring a range of addresses. The optimized
state may be either a light-weight power/performance optimized state
(C0.1 state) or an improved power/performance optimized state
(C0.2 state).
tpause instructs the processor to enter an implementation-dependent
optimized state C0.1 or C0.2 state and wake up when time-stamp counter
reaches specified timeout.
The three instructions may be executed at any privilege level.
The instructions provide power saving method while waiting in
user space. Additionally, they can allow a sibling hyperthread to
make faster progress while this thread is waiting. One example of an
application usage of umwait is when waiting for input data from another
application, such as a user level multi-threaded packet processing
engine.
Availability of the user wait instructions is indicated by the presence
of the CPUID feature flag WAITPKG CPUID.0x07.0x0:ECX[5].
Detailed information on the instructions and CPUID feature WAITPKG flag
can be found in the latest Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions
and Future Features Programming Reference and Intel 64 and IA-32
Architectures Software Developer's Manual.

Since commit 7d5905dc14 ("x86 / CPU: Always show current CPU frequency
in /proc/cpuinfo") open and read of /proc/cpuinfo sends IPI to all CPUs.
Many applications read /proc/cpuinfo at the start for trivial reasons like
counting cores or detecting cpu features. While sensitive workloads like
DPDK network polling don't like any interrupts.
Integrates this feature with cpu isolation and do not send IPIs to CPUs
without housekeeping flag HK_FLAG_MISC (set by nohz_full).
Code that requests cpu frequency like show_cpuinfo() falls back to the last
frequency set by the cpufreq driver if this method returns 0.

Several recent exploits have used direct calls to the native_write_cr4()
function to disable SMEP and SMAP before then continuing their exploits
using userspace memory access.
Direct calls of this form can be mitigate by pinning bits of CR4 so that
they cannot be changed through a common function. This is not intended to
be a general ROP protection (which would require CFI to defend against
properly), but rather a way to avoid trivial direct function calling (or
CFI bypasses via a matching function prototype) as seen in:
https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2017/05/exploiting-linux-kernel-via-packet.html
(https://github.com/xairy/kernel-exploits/tree/master/CVE-2017-7308)
The goals of this change:
- Pin specific bits (SMEP, SMAP, and UMIP) when writing CR4.
- Avoid setting the bits too early (they must become pinned only after
CPU feature detection and selection has finished).
- Pinning mask needs to be read-only during normal runtime.
- Pinning needs to be checked after write to validate the cr4 state
Using __ro_after_init on the mask is done so it can't be first disabled
with a malicious write.
Since these bits are global state (once established by the boot CPU and
kernel boot parameters), they are safe to write to secondary CPUs before
those CPUs have finished feature detection. As such, the bits are set at
the first cr4 write, so that cr4 write bugs can be detected (instead of
silently papered over). This uses a few bytes less storage of a location we
don't have: read-only per-CPU data.
A check is performed after the register write because an attack could just
skip directly to the register write. Such a direct jump is possible because
of how this function may be built by the compiler (especially due to the
removal of frame pointers) where it doesn't add a stack frame (function
exit may only be a retq without pops) which is sufficient for trivial
exploitation like in the timer overwrites mentioned above).
The asm argument constraints gain the "+" modifier to convince the compiler
that it shouldn't make ordering assumptions about the arguments or memory,
and treat them as changed.

The kernel needs to explicitly enable FSGSBASE. So, the application needs
to know if it can safely use these instructions. Just looking at the CPUID
bit is not enough because it may be running in a kernel that does not
enable the instructions.
One way for the application would be to just try and catch the SIGILL.
But that is difficult to do in libraries which may not want to overwrite
the signal handlers of the main application.
Enumerate the enabled FSGSBASE capability in bit 1 of AT_HWCAP2 in the ELF
aux vector. AT_HWCAP2 is already used by PPC for similar purposes.
The application can access it open coded or by using the getauxval()
function in newer versions of glibc.
