This defines the new standard arch_has_single_step macro. It makes the existing set_singlestep and clear_singlestep entry points global, and renames them to the new standard names user_enable_single_step and user_disable_single_step, respectively.

Actually, on 386, cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local fall back on cmpxchg_386_u8/16/32: it disables interruptions around non atomic updates to mimic the cmpxchg behavior. The comment: /* Poor man's cmpxchg for 386. Unsuitable for SMP */ already present in cmpxchg_386_u32 tells much about how this cmpxchg implementation should not be used in a SMP context. However, the cmpxchg_local can perfectly use this fallback, since it only needs to be atomic wrt the local cpu. This patch adds a cmpxchg_486_u64 and uses it as a fallback for cmpxchg64 and cmpxchg64_local on 80386 and 80486. Q: but why is it called cmpxchg_486 when the other functions are called A: Because the standard cmpxchg is missing only on 386, but cmpxchg8b is missing both on 386 and 486. Citing Intel's Instruction set reference: cmpxchg: This instruction is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the Intel486 processors. cmpxchg8b: This instruction encoding is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the Pentium processors. Q: What's the reason to have cmpxchg64_local on 32 bit architectures? Without that need all this would just be a few simple defines. A: cmpxchg64_local on 32 bits architectures takes unsigned long long parameters, but cmpxchg_local only takes longs. Since we have cmpxchg8b to execute a 8 byte cmpxchg atomically on pentium and +, it makes sense to provide a flavor of cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local using this instruction. Also, for 32 bits architectures lacking the 64 bits atomic cmpxchg, it makes sense _not_ to define cmpxchg64 while cmpxchg could still be available. Moreover, the fallback for cmpxchg8b on i386 for 386 and 486 is a However, cmpxchg64_local will be emulated by disabling interrupts on all architectures where it is not supported atomically. Therefore, we *could* turn cmpxchg64_local into a cmpxchg_local, but it would make the 386/486 fallbacks ugly, make its design different from cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 (which really depends on atomic operations and cannot be emulated) and require the __cmpxchg_local to be expressed as a macro rather than an inline function so the parameters would not be fixed to unsigned long long in every case. So I think cmpxchg64_local makes sense there, but I am open to suggestions. Q: Are there any callers? A: I am actually using it in LTTng in my timestamping code. I use it to work around CPUs with asynchronous TSCs. I need to update 64 bits values atomically on this 32 bits architecture. Changelog: - Ran though checkpatch.

Sanitize user specified e820 memory ranges, using the same logic that is applied to the values returned by the BIOS. This ensures consistent handling regardless of the source of the memory mappings. Allows overriding portions of the memory map without specifying one in it's entirety (memmap=exactmap). E.g. marking a range of bad RAM as reserved with memmap=48M$528M BIOS supplied range BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 000000007fe80000 (usable) becomes user: 0000000000100000 - 0000000021000000 (usable) user: 0000000021000000 - 0000000024000000 (reserved) user: 0000000024000000 - 000000007fe80000 (usable) Previously this did not work, as the original BIOS range was left untouched while the user defined range was appended to the end of the memory map.

It's identical in both asm-x86/processor_64.h and asm-x86/processor_32.h, so if these files ever get merged this function can be in the common code.

The fs_base and gs_base fields are available in user_regs_struct. But reading these via ptrace (PTRACE_GETREGS or PTRACE_PEEKUSR) does not give a reliably useful value. The thread_struct fields are 0 when do_arch_prctl decided to use a GDT slot instead of MSR_FS_BASE, which it does for a value under 1<<32. This changes ptrace access to fs_base and gs_base to work like PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL does. That is, it reads the base address that user-mode memory access using the fs/gs instruction prefixes will use, regardless of how it's being implemented in the kernel. The MSR vs GDT is an implementation detail that is pretty much hidden from userland in the actual using, and there is no reason that ptrace should give the internal implementation picture rather than the user-mode semantic picture. In the case of setting the value, this can implicitly change the fsindex/gsindex value (also separately in user_regs_struct), which is what happens when the thread calls arch_prctl itself. In a PTRACE_SETREGS, the fs_base change will come after the fsindex change due to the order of the struct, and so a change the debugger made to fs_base will have the effect intended, another part of the user_regs_struct will now differ when read back from what the debugger wrote. This makes PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL obsolete. We could consider declaring it deprecated and removing it one day, though there is no hurry. For the foreseeable future, debuggers have to assume an old kernel that does not report reliable fs_base/gs_base values in user_regs_struct and stick to PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL anyway.

Some assembler versions automagically optimize .eh_frame contents, changing their size. The CFI in sysenter.S was not using optimal formatting, so it would be changed by newer/smarter assemblers. This ran afoul of the wired constant for padding out the other vDSO images to match its size. This changes the original hand-coded source to use the optimal format encoding for its operations. That leaves nothing more for a fancy assembler to do, so the sizes will match the wired-in expected size regardless of the assembler version.

This reorders the code in the 32-bit vDSO images to put the signal trampolines first and __kernel_vsyscall after them. The order does not matter to userland, it just uses what AT_SYSINFO or e_entry says. Since the signal trampolines are the same size in both versions of the vDSO, putting them first is the simplest way to get the addresses to line up. This makes it work to use a more compact layout for the vDSO.

This makes x86_64's ia32 emulation support share the sources used in the 32-bit kernel for the 32-bit vDSO and much of its setup code. The 32-bit vDSO mapping now behaves the same on x86_64 as on native 32-bit. The abi.syscall32 sysctl on x86_64 now takes the same values that vm.vdso_enabled takes on the 32-bit kernel. That is, 1 means a randomized vDSO location, 2 means the fixed old address. The CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO option is now available to make this the default setting, the same meaning it has for the 32-bit kernel. (This does not affect the 64-bit vDSO.) The argument vdso32=[012] can be used on both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels to set this paramter at boot time. The vdso=[012] argument still does this same thing on the 32-bit kernel.

This changes the 64-bit kernel's support for the 32-bit sysenter instruction to use stored fields rather than constants for the user-mode return address, as the 32-bit kernel does. This adds a sysenter_return field to struct thread_info, as 32-bit has. There is no observable effect from this yet. It makes the assembly code independent of the 32-bit vDSO mapping address, paving the way for making the vDSO address vary as it does on the 32-bit kernel.

This change harmonizes the asm-offsets macros used in the 32-bit vDSO across 32-bit and 64-bit builds. It's a purely cosmetic change for now, but it paves the way for consolidating the 32-bit vDSO builds.

This revamps the vDSO linker script to lay things out with the best packing of the data and good, separate alignment of the code. The rigid layout using VDSO_TEXT_OFFSET no longer matters to the kernel. I've moved the layout parts of the linker script into a new include file, vdso-layout.lds.S; this is in preparation for sharing the script for the 32-bit vDSO builds too.

This patch changes the kernel's references to addresses in the vDSO image to be based on the symbols defined by vdso-syms.lds instead of the old vdso-syms.o symbols. This is all wrapped up in a macro defined by the new asm-x86/vdso.h header; that's the only place in the kernel source that has to know the details of the scheme for getting vDSO symbol values.

This patch adds a new way of extracting symbols from the built vDSO image. This is much simpler and less fragile than using ld -R; it removes the need to control the DSO layout quite so exactly. I was clearly unduly distracted by clever ld uses when I did the original vDSO implementation.

Randomize the location of the heap (brk) for i386 and x86_64. The range is randomized in the range starting at current brk location up to 0x02000000 offset for both architectures. This, together with pie-executable-randomization.patch and pie-executable-randomization-fix.patch, should make the address space randomization on i386 and x86_64 complete. Arjan says: This is known to break older versions of some emacs variants, whose dumper code assumed that the last variable declared in the program is equal to the start of the dynamically allocated memory region. (The dumper is the code where emacs effectively dumps core at the end of it's compilation stage; this coredump is then loaded as the main program during normal use) iirc this was 5 years or so; we found this way back when I was at RH and we first did the security stuff there (including this brk randomization). It wasn't all variants of emacs, and it got fixed as a result (I vaguely remember that emacs already had code to deal with it for other archs/oses, just ifdeffed wrongly). It's a rare and wrong assumption as a general thing, just on x86 it mostly happened to be true (but to be honest, it'll break too if gcc does something fancy or if the linker does a non-standard order). Still its something we should at least document. Note 2: afaik it only broke the emacs *build*. I'm not 100% sure about that (it IS 5 years ago) though.

Earlier patch added IO APIC setup into local APIC setup. This caused modpost warnings. Fix them by untangling setup_local_APIC() and splitting it into smaller functions. The IO APIC initialization is only called for the BP init. Also removed some outdated debugging code and minor cleanup.
