Convert s390 to use a field in the struct lowcore for the CPU preemption count. It is a bit cheaper to access a lowcore field compared to a thread_info variable and it removes the depencency on a task related structure. bloat-o-meter on the vmlinux image for the default configuration (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y) reports a small reduction in text size: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 18/578 up/down: 228/-5448 (-5220) A larger improvement is achieved with the default configuration but with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=n: add/remove: 2/6 grow/shrink: 59/4477 up/down: 1618/-228762 (-227144) Reviewed-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel. The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e ("s390: add 31 bit warning message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit code. We didn't get any response. Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's remove the code. Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack. Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by making the restart_block harder to locate. Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy targets, at least on some architectures. It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less identical on all architectures.

The current uaccess code uses a page table walk in some circumstances, e.g. in case of the in atomic futex operations or if running on old hardware which doesn't support the mvcos instruction. However it turned out that the page table walk code does not correctly lock page tables when accessing page table entries. In other words: a different cpu may invalidate a page table entry while the current cpu inspects the pte. This may lead to random data corruption. Adding correct locking however isn't trivial for all uaccess operations. Especially copy_in_user() is problematic since that requires to hold at least two locks, but must be protected against ABBA deadlock when a different cpu also performs a copy_in_user() operation. So the solution is a different approach where we change address spaces: User space runs in primary address mode, or access register mode within vdso code, like it currently already does. The kernel usually also runs in home space mode, however when accessing user space the kernel switches to primary or secondary address mode if the mvcos instruction is not available or if a compare-and-swap (futex) instruction on a user space address is performed. KVM however is special, since that requires the kernel to run in home address space while implicitly accessing user space with the sie instruction. So we end up with: User space: - runs in primary or access register mode - cr1 contains the user asce - cr7 contains the user asce - cr13 contains the kernel asce Kernel space: - runs in home space mode - cr1 contains the user or kernel asce -> the kernel asce is loaded when a uaccess requires primary or secondary address mode - cr7 contains the user or kernel asce, (changed with set_fs()) - cr13 contains the kernel asce In case of uaccess the kernel changes to: - primary space mode in case of a uaccess (copy_to_user) and uses e.g. the mvcp instruction to access user space. However the kernel will stay in home space mode if the mvcos instruction is available - secondary space mode in case of futex atomic operations, so that the instructions come from primary address space and data from secondary space In case of kvm the kernel runs in home space mode, but cr1 gets switched to contain the gmap asce before the sie instruction gets executed. When the sie instruction is finished cr1 will be switched back to contain the user asce. A context switch between two processes will always load the kernel asce for the next process in cr1. So the first exit to user space is a bit more expensive (one extra load control register instruction) than before, however keeps the code rather simple. In sum this means there is no need to perform any error prone page table walks anymore when accessing user space. The patch seems to be rather large, however it mainly removes the the page table walk code and restores the previously deleted "standard" uaccess code, with a couple of changes. The uaccess without mvcos mode can be enforced with the "uaccess_primary" kernel parameter.

Git commit 050eef36 "[S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accesses" introduced the attach counter to avoid using the mm_users value to decide between IPTE for every PTE and lazy TLB flushing with IDTE. That fixed the problem with mm_users but it introduced another subtle race, fortunately one that is very hard to hit. The background is the requirement of the architecture that a valid PTE may not be changed while it can be used concurrently by another cpu. The decision between IPTE and lazy TLB flushing needs to be done while the PTE is still valid. Now if the virtual cpu is temporarily stopped after the decision to use lazy TLB flushing but before the invalid bit of the PTE has been set, another cpu can attach the mm, find that flush_mm is set, do the IDTE, return to userspace, and recreate a TLB that uses the PTE in question. When the first, stopped cpu continues it will change the PTE while it is attached on another cpu. The first cpu will do another IDTE shortly after the modification of the PTE which makes the race window quite short. To fix this race the CPU that wants to attach the address space of a user space thread needs to wait for the end of the PTE modification. The number of concurrent TLB flushers for an mm is tracked in the upper 16 bits of the attach_count and finish_arch_post_lock_switch is used to wait for the end of the flush operation if required.

For a ERESTARTNOHAND/ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR restarting system call do_signal will prepare the restart of the system call with a rewind of the PSW before calling get_signal_to_deliver (where the debugger might take control). For A ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK restarting system call do_signal will set -EINTR as return code. There are two issues with this approach: 1) strace never sees ERESTARTNOHAND, ERESTARTSYS, ERESTARTNOINTR or ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK as the rewinding already took place or the return code has been changed to -EINTR 2) if get_signal_to_deliver does not return with a signal to deliver the restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is left in place. This opens a race if another signal is made pending before the system call instruction can be reexecuted. The original system call will be restarted even if the second signal would have ended the system call with -EINTR. These two issues can be solved by dropping the early rewind of the system call before get_signal_to_deliver has been called and by using the TIF_RESTART_SVC magic to do the restart if no signal has to be delivered. The only situation where the system call restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is appropriate is when a SA_RESTART signal is delivered to user space. Unfortunately this breaks inferior calls by the debugger again. The system call number and the length of the system call instruction is lost over the inferior call and user space will see ERESTARTNOHAND/ ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR/ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. To correct this a new ptrace interface is added to save/restore the system call number and system call instruction length. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The entry to / exit from sie has subtle dependencies to the first level interrupt handler. Move the sie assembler code to entry64.S and replace the SIE_HOOK callback with a test and the new _TIF_SIE bit. In addition this patch fixes several problems in regard to the check for the_TIF_EXIT_SIE bits. The old code checked the TIF bits before executing the interrupt handler and it only modified the instruction address if it pointed directly to the sie instruction. In both cases it could miss a TIF bit that normally would cause an exit from the guest and would reenter the guest context. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
