- The generalization of the RDT code to accommodate the addition of
AMD's very similar implementation of the cache monitoring feature.
This entails a subsystem move into a separate and generic
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/ directory along with adding
vendor-specific initialization and feature detection helpers.
Ontop of that is the unification of user-visible strings, both in the
resctrl filesystem error handling and Kconfig.

Andy spotted a regression in the fs/gs base helpers after the patch series
was committed. The helper functions which write fs/gs base are not just
writing the base, they are also changing the index. That's wrong and needs
to be separated because writing the base has not to modify the index.
While the regression is not causing any harm right now because the only
caller depends on that behaviour, it's a guarantee for subtle breakage down
the road.
Make the index explicitly changed from the caller, instead of including
the code in the helpers.
Subsequently, the task write helpers do not handle for the current task
anymore. The range check for a base value is also factored out, to minimize
code redundancy from the caller.

The result of in_compat_syscall() can be pictured as:
x86 platform:
---------------------------------------------------
| Arch\syscall | 64-bit | ia32 | x32 |
|-------------------------------------------------|
| x86_64 | false | true | true |
|-------------------------------------------------|
| i686 | | <true> | |
---------------------------------------------------
Other platforms:
-------------------------------------------
| Arch\syscall | 64-bit | compat |
|-----------------------------------------|
| 64-bit | false | true |
|-----------------------------------------|
| 32-bit(?) | | <false> |
-------------------------------------------
As seen, the result of in_compat_syscall() on generic 32-bit platform
differs from i686.
There is no reason for in_compat_syscall() == true on native i686. It also
easy to misread code if the result on native 32-bit platform differs
between arches.
Because of that non arch-specific code has many places with:
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_COMPAT) && in_compat_syscall())
in different variations.
It looks-like the only non-x86 code which uses in_compat_syscall() not
under CONFIG_COMPAT guard is in amd/amdkfd. But according to the commit
a18069c132 ("amdkfd: Disable support for 32-bit user processes"), it
actually should be disabled on native i686.
Rename in_compat_syscall() to in_32bit_syscall() for x86-specific code
and make in_compat_syscall() false under !CONFIG_COMPAT.
A follow on patch will clean up generic users which were forced to check
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_COMPAT) with in_compat_syscall().

Introduce FS/GS base access functionality via <asm/fsgsbase.h>,
not yet used by anything directly.
Factor out task_seg_base() from x86/ptrace.c and rename it to
x86_fsgsbase_read_task() to make it part of the new helpers.
This will allow us to enhance FSGSBASE support and eventually enable
the FSBASE/GSBASE instructions.
An "inactive" GS base refers to a base saved at kernel entry
and being part of an inactive, non-running/stopped user-task.
(The typical ptrace model.)
Here are the new functions:

The x86 mmap() code selects the mmap base for an allocation depending on
the bitness of the syscall. For 64bit sycalls it select mm->mmap_base and
for 32bit mm->mmap_compat_base.
exec() calls mmap() which in turn uses in_compat_syscall() to check whether
the mapping is for a 32bit or a 64bit task. The decision is made on the
following criteria:
ia32 child->thread.status & TS_COMPAT
x32 child->pt_regs.orig_ax & __X32_SYSCALL_BIT
ia64 !ia32 && !x32
__set_personality_x32() was dropping TS_COMPAT flag, but
set_personality_64bit() has kept compat syscall flag making
in_compat_syscall() return true during the first exec() syscall.
Which in result has user-visible effects, mentioned by Alexey:
1) It breaks ASAN
$ gcc -fsanitize=address wrap.c -o wrap-asan
$ ./wrap32 ./wrap-asan true
==1217==Shadow memory range interleaves with an existing memory mapping. ASan cannot proceed correctly. ABORTING.
==1217==ASan shadow was supposed to be located in the [0x00007fff7000-0x10007fff7fff] range.
==1217==Process memory map follows:

2) It doesn't seem to be great for security if an attacker always knows
that ld.so is going to be mapped into the first 4GB in this case
(the same thing happens for PIEs as well).
The testcase:
$ cat wrap.c
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
execvp(argv[1], &argv[1]);
return 127;
}

The TS_COMPAT bit is very hot and is accessed from code paths that mostly
also touch thread_info::flags. Move it into struct thread_info to improve
cache locality.
The only reason it was in thread_struct is that there was a brief period
during which arch-specific fields were not allowed in struct thread_info.
Linus suggested further changing:
ti->status &= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);
to:
if (unlikely(ti->status & (TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED)))
ti->status &= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);
on the theory that frequently dirtying the cacheline even in pure 64-bit
code that never needs to modify status hurts performance. That could be a
reasonable followup patch, but I suspect it matters less on top of this
patch.

Switching FS and GS is a mess, and the current code is still subtly
wrong: it assumes that "Loading a nonzero value into FS sets the
index and base", which is false on AMD CPUs if the value being
loaded is 1, 2, or 3.
(The current code came from commit 3e2b68d752 ("x86/asm,
sched/x86: Rewrite the FS and GS context switch code"), which made
it better but didn't fully fix it.)
Rewrite it to be much simpler and more obviously correct. This
should fix it fully on AMD CPUs and shouldn't adversely affect
performance.

The x86 mmap() code selects the mmap base for an allocation depending on
the bitness of the syscall. For 64bit sycalls it select mm->mmap_base and
for 32bit mm->mmap_compat_base.
On execve the registers of the task invoking exec() are copied to the child
pt_regs. So child->pt_regs->orig_ax contains the execve syscall number of the
parent.
exec() calls mmap() which in turn uses in_compat_syscall() to check whether
the mapping is for a 32bit or a 64bit task. The decision is made on the
following criteria:
ia32 child->thread.status & TS_COMPAT
x32 child->pt_regs.orig_ax & __X32_SYSCALL_BIT
ia64 !ia32 && !x32
child->thread.status is corretly set up in set_personality_*(), but the
syscall number in child->pt_regs.orig_ax is left unmodified.
Therefore the parent/child combinations work or fail in the following way:
Parent Child Child->thread_status child->pt_regs.orig_ax in_compat() Works
ia64 ia64 TS_COMPAT == 0 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0 false Y
ia64 ia32 TS_COMPAT == 1 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0 true Y
ia64 x32 TS_COMPAT == 0 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0 false N
ia32 ia64 TS_COMPAT == 0 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0 false Y
ia32 ia32 TS_COMPAT == 1 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0 true Y
ia32 x32 TS_COMPAT == 0 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0 false N
x32 ia64 TS_COMPAT == 0 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 1 true N
x32 ia32 TS_COMPAT == 1 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 1 true Y
x32 x32 TS_COMPAT == 0 __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 1 true Y
Make set_personality_*() store the syscall number incl. __X32_SYSCALL_BIT
which corresponds to the newly started ELF executable in the childs
pt_regs, i.e. pretend that the exec was invoked from a task with the same
executable format.
So both thread.status and pt_regs.orig_ax correspond to the new ELF format
and in_compat_syscall() returns the correct result.

Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
"This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
partitioning mechanism.
The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
odd as well.
We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
per package nature of this mechanism.
In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
combinations of the hardware can be utilized.
There are two ways of associating a cache partition:
- Task
A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
partition associated to the group.
- CPU
All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
which the CPU they are running on is associated with.
That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.
The main expected user sare:
- Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
the cash w/o disturbing others
- Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.
- Latency sensitive enterprise workloads
- In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
channel attacks"
[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
had more time.
But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
_so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will

Pull x86 idle updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were two bigger changes in this development cycle:
- remove idle notifiers:
32 files changed, 74 insertions(+), 803 deletions(-)
These notifiers were of questionable value and the main usecase,
the i7300 driver, was essentially unmaintained and can be removed,
plus modern power management concepts don't need the callback - so
use this golden opportunity and get rid of this opaque and fragile
callback from a latency sensitive code path.
(Len Brown, Thomas Gleixner)
- improve the AMD Erratum 400 workaround that used high overhead MSR
polling in the idle loop (Borisla Petkov, Thomas Gleixner)"

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- do a large round of simplifications after all CPUs do 'eager' FPU
context switching in v4.9: remove CR0 twiddling, remove leftover
eager/lazy bts, etc (Andy Lutomirski)
- more FPU code simplifications: remove struct fpu::counter, clarify
nomenclature, remove unnecessary arguments/functions and better
structure the code (Rik van Riel)"
