Commit 711419e504 ("irqdomain: Add the missing assignment of
domain->fwnode for named fwnode") unintentionally caused a dangling pointer
page fault issue on firmware nodes that were freed after IRQ domain
allocation. Commit e3beca48a4 fixed that dangling pointer issue by only
freeing the firmware node after an IRQ domain allocation failure. That fix
no longer frees the firmware node immediately, but leaves the firmware node
allocated after the domain is removed.
The firmware node must be kept around through irq_domain_remove, but should be
freed it afterwards.
Add the missing free operations after domain removal where where appropriate.

show_trace_log_lvl() provides x86 platform-specific way to unwind

If a user task's stack is empty, or if it only has user regs, ORC
reports it as a reliable empty stack. But arch_stack_walk_reliable()
incorrectly treats it as unreliable.
That happens because the only success path for user tasks is inside the
loop, which only iterates on non-empty stacks. Generally, a user task
must end in a user regs frame, but an empty stack is an exception to
that rule.
Thanks to commit 71c9582528 ("x86/unwind/orc: Fix error handling in
__unwind_start()"), unwind_start() now sets state->error appropriately.
So now for both ORC and FP unwinders, unwind_done() and !unwind_error()
always means the end of the stack was successfully reached. So the
success path for kthreads is no longer needed -- it can also be used for
empty user tasks.

On x86-32 the idt_table with 256 entries needs only 2048 bytes. It is
page-aligned, but the end of the .bss..page_aligned section is not
guaranteed to be page-aligned.
As a result, objects from other .bss sections may end up on the same 4k
page as the idt_table, and will accidentially get mapped read-only during
boot, causing unexpected page-faults when the kernel writes to them.
This could be worked around by making the objects in the page aligned
sections page sized, but that's wrong.
Explicit sections which store only page aligned objects have an implicit
guarantee that the object is alone in the page in which it is placed. That
works for all objects except the last one. That's inconsistent.
Enforcing page sized objects for these sections would wreckage memory
sanitizers, because the object becomes artificially larger than it should
be and out of bound access becomes legit.
Align the end of the .bss..page_aligned and .data..page_aligned section on
page-size so all objects places in these sections are guaranteed to have
their own page.

To allow the kernel not to play games with set_fs to call exec
implement kernel_execve. The function kernel_execve takes pointers
into kernel memory and copies the values pointed to onto the new
userspace stack.
The calls with arguments from kernel space of do_execve are replaced
with calls to kernel_execve.
The calls do_execve and do_execveat are made static as there are now
no callers outside of exec.
The comments that mention do_execve are updated to refer to
kernel_execve or execve depending on the circumstances. In addition
to correcting the comments, this makes it easy to grep for do_execve
and verify it is not used.

Setting interrupt affinity on inactive interrupts is inconsistent when
hierarchical irq domains are enabled. The core code should just store the
affinity and not call into the irq chip driver for inactive interrupts
because the chip drivers may not be in a state to handle such requests.
X86 has a hacky workaround for that but all other irq chips have not which
causes problems e.g. on GIC V3 ITS.
Instead of adding more ugly hacks all over the place, solve the problem in
the core code. If the affinity is set on an inactive interrupt then:
- Store it in the irq descriptors affinity mask
- Update the effective affinity to reflect that so user space has
a consistent view
- Don't call into the irq chip driver
This is the core equivalent of the X86 workaround and works correctly
because the affinity setting is established in the irq chip when the
interrupt is activated later on.
Note, that this is only effective when hierarchical irq domains are enabled
by the architecture. Doing it unconditionally would break legacy irq chip
implementations.
For hierarchial irq domains this works correctly as none of the drivers can
have a dependency on affinity setting in inactive state by design.
Remove the X86 workaround as it is not longer required.

Quite some non OF/ACPI users of irqdomains allocate firmware nodes of type
IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED or IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED_ID and free them right after
creating the irqdomain. The only purpose of these FW nodes is to convey
name information. When this was introduced the core code did not store the
pointer to the node in the irqdomain. A recent change stored the firmware
node pointer in irqdomain for other reasons and missed to notice that the
usage sites which do the alloc_fwnode/create_domain/free_fwnode sequence
are broken by this. Storing a dangling pointer is dangerous itself, but in
case that the domain is destroyed later on this leads to a double free.
Remove the freeing of the firmware node after creating the irqdomain from
all affected call sites to cure this.

In the LBR call stack mode, LBR information is used to reconstruct a
call stack. To get the complete call stack, perf has to save/restore
all LBR registers during a context switch. Due to a large number of the
LBR registers, this process causes a high CPU overhead. To reduce the
CPU overhead during a context switch, use the XSAVES/XRSTORS
instructions.
Every XSAVE area must follow a canonical format: the legacy region, an
XSAVE header and the extended region. Although the LBR information is
only kept in the extended region, a space for the legacy region and
XSAVE header is still required. Add a new dedicated structure for LBR
XSAVES support.
Before enabling XSAVES support, the size of the LBR state has to be
sanity checked, because:
- the size of the software structure is calculated from the max number
of the LBR depth, which is enumerated by the CPUID leaf for Arch LBR.
The size of the LBR state is enumerated by the CPUID leaf for XSAVE
support of Arch LBR. If the values from the two CPUID leaves are not
consistent, it may trigger a buffer overflow. For example, a hypervisor
may unconsciously set inconsistent values for the two emulated CPUID.
- unlike other state components, the size of an LBR state depends on the
max number of LBRs, which may vary from generation to generation.
Expose the function xfeature_size() for the sanity check.
The LBR XSAVES support will be disabled if the size of the LBR state
enumerated by CPUID doesn't match with the size of the software
structure.
The XSAVE instruction requires 64-byte alignment for state buffers. A
new macro is added to reflect the alignment requirement. A 64-byte
aligned kmem_cache is created for architecture LBR.
Currently, the structure for each state component is maintained in
fpu/types.h. The structure for the new LBR state component should be
maintained in the same place. Move structure lbr_entry to fpu/types.h as
well for broader sharing.
Add dedicated lbr_save/lbr_restore functions for LBR XSAVES support,
which invokes the corresponding xstate helpers to XSAVES/XRSTORS LBR
information at the context switch when the call stack mode is enabled.
Since the XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions will be eventually invoked, the
dedicated functions is named with '_xsaves'/'_xrstors' postfix.

Last Branch Records (LBR) registers are used to log taken branches and
other control flows. In perf with call stack mode, LBR information is
used to reconstruct a call stack. To get the complete call stack, perf
has to save/restore all LBR registers during a context switch. Due to
the large number of the LBR registers, e.g., the current platform has
96 LBR registers, this process causes a high CPU overhead. To reduce
the CPU overhead during a context switch, an LBR state component that
contains all the LBR related registers is introduced in hardware. All
LBR registers can be saved/restored together using one XSAVES/XRSTORS
instruction.
However, the kernel should not save/restore the LBR state component at
each context switch, like other state components, because of the
following unique features of LBR:
- The LBR state component only contains valuable information when LBR
is enabled in the perf subsystem, but for most of the time, LBR is
disabled.
- The size of the LBR state component is huge. For the current
platform, it's 808 bytes.
If the kernel saves/restores the LBR state at each context switch, for
most of the time, it is just a waste of space and cycles.
To efficiently support the LBR state component, it is desired to have:
- only context-switch the LBR when the LBR feature is enabled in perf.
- only allocate an LBR-specific XSAVE buffer on demand.
(Besides the LBR state, a legacy region and an XSAVE header have to be
included in the buffer as well. There is a total of (808+576) byte
overhead for the LBR-specific XSAVE buffer. The overhead only happens
when the perf is actively using LBRs. There is still a space-saving,
on average, when it replaces the constant 808 bytes of overhead for
every task, all the time on the systems that support architectural
LBR.)
- be able to use XSAVES/XRSTORS for accessing LBR at run time.
However, the IA32_XSS should not be adjusted at run time.
(The XCR0 | IA32_XSS are used to determine the requested-feature
bitmap (RFBM) of XSAVES.)
A solution, called dynamic supervisor feature, is introduced to address
this issue, which
- does not allocate a buffer in each task->fpu;
- does not save/restore a state component at each context switch;
- sets the bit corresponding to the dynamic supervisor feature in
IA32_XSS at boot time, and avoids setting it at run time.
- dynamically allocates a specific buffer for a state component
on demand, e.g. only allocates LBR-specific XSAVE buffer when LBR is
enabled in perf. (Note: The buffer has to include the LBR state
component, a legacy region and a XSAVE header space.)
(Implemented in a later patch)
- saves/restores a state component on demand, e.g. manually invokes
the XSAVES/XRSTORS instruction to save/restore the LBR state
to/from the buffer when perf is active and a call stack is required.
(Implemented in a later patch)
A new mask XFEATURE_MASK_DYNAMIC and a helper xfeatures_mask_dynamic()
are introduced to indicate the dynamic supervisor feature. For the
systems which support the Architecture LBR, LBR is the only dynamic
supervisor feature for now. For the previous systems, there is no
dynamic supervisor feature available.

When saving xstate to a kernel/user XSAVE area with the XSAVE family of
instructions, the current code applies the 'full' instruction mask (-1),
which tries to XSAVE all possible features. This method relies on
hardware to trim 'all possible' down to what is enabled in the
hardware. The code works well for now. However, there will be a
problem, if some features are enabled in hardware, but are not suitable
to be saved into all kernel XSAVE buffers, like task->fpu, due to
performance consideration.
One such example is the Last Branch Records (LBR) state. The LBR state
only contains valuable information when LBR is explicitly enabled by
the perf subsystem, and the size of an LBR state is large (808 bytes
for now). To avoid both CPU overhead and space overhead at each context
switch, the LBR state should not be saved into task->fpu like other
state components. It should be saved/restored on demand when LBR is
enabled in the perf subsystem. Current copy_xregs_to_* will trigger a
buffer overflow for such cases.
Three sites use the '-1' instruction mask which must be updated.
Two are saving/restoring the xstate to/from a kernel-allocated XSAVE
buffer and can use 'xfeatures_mask_all', which will save/restore all of
the features present in a normal task FPU buffer.
The last one saves the register state directly to a user buffer. It
could
also use 'xfeatures_mask_all'. Just as it was with the '-1' argument,
any supervisor states in the mask will be filtered out by the hardware
and not saved to the buffer. But, to be more explicit about what is
expected to be saved, use xfeatures_mask_user() for the instruction
mask.
KVM includes the header file fpu/internal.h. To avoid 'undefined
xfeatures_mask_all' compiling issue, move copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() to
fpu/core.c and export it, because:
- The xfeatures_mask_all is indirectly used via copy_fpregs_to_fpstate()
by KVM. The function which is directly used by other modules should be
exported.
- The copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() is a function, while xfeatures_mask_all
is a variable for the "internal" FPU state. It's safer to export a
function than a variable, which may be implicitly changed by others.
- The copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() is a big function with many checks. The
removal of the inline keyword should not impact the performance.

"A series of fixes for x86:
- Reset MXCSR in kernel_fpu_begin() to prevent using a stale user
space value.
- Prevent writing MSR_TEST_CTRL on CPUs which are not explicitly
whitelisted for split lock detection. Some CPUs which do not
support it crash even when the MSR is written to 0 which is the
default value.
- Fix the XEN PV fallout of the entry code rework
- Fix the 32bit fallout of the entry code rework
- Add more selftests to ensure that these entry problems don't come
back.
- Disable 16 bit segments on XEN PV. It's not supported because XEN
PV does not implement ESPFIX64"
