Initialize the VDSO page list at boot, install the VDSO mapping at exec time, and update the data page during timer ticks. This code is not built if CONFIG_VDSO is not enabled. Account for the VDSO length when randomizing the offset from the stack. The [vdso] and [vvar] pages are placed immediately following the sigpage with separate _install_special_mapping calls. We want to "penalize" systems lacking the arch timer as little as possible. Previous versions of this code installed the VDSO unconditionally and unmodified, making it a measurably slower way for glibc to invoke the real syscalls on such systems. E.g. calling gettimeofday via glibc goes from ~560ns to ~630ns on i.MX6Q. If we can indicate to glibc that the time-related APIs in the VDSO are not accelerated, glibc can continue to invoke the syscalls directly instead of dispatching through the VDSO only to fall back to the slow path. Thus, if the architected timer is unusable for whatever reason, patch the VDSO at boot time so that symbol lookups for gettimeofday and clock_gettime return NULL. (This is similar to what powerpc does and borrows code from there.) This allows glibc to perform the syscall directly instead of passing control to the VDSO, which minimizes the penalty. In my measurements the time taken for a gettimeofday call via glibc goes from ~560ns to ~580ns (again on i.MX6Q), and this is solely due to adding a test and branch to glibc's gettimeofday syscall wrapper. An alternative to patching the VDSO at boot would be to not install the VDSO at all when the arch timer isn't usable. Another alternative is to include a separate "dummy" vdso.so without gettimeofday and clock_gettime, which would be selected at boot time. Either of these would get cumbersome if the VDSO were to gain support for an API such as getcpu which is unrelated to arch timer support.

Place VDSO-related user-space code in arch/arm/kernel/vdso/. It is almost completely written in C with some assembly helpers to load the data page address, sample the counter, and fall back to system calls when necessary. The VDSO can service gettimeofday and clock_gettime when CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER is enabled and the architected timer is present (and correctly configured). It reads the CP15-based virtual counter to compute high-resolution timestamps. Of particular note is that a post-processing step ("vdsomunge") is necessary to produce a shared object which is architecturally allowed to be used by both soft- and hard-float EABI programs. The 2012 edition of the ARM ABI defines Tag_ABI_VFP_args = 3 "Code is compatible with both the base and VFP variants; the user did not permit non-variadic functions to pass FP parameters/results." Unfortunately current toolchains do not support this tag, which is ideally what we would use. The best available option is to ensure that both EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT and EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_HARD are unset in the ELF header's e_flags, indicating that the shared object is "old" and should be accepted for backward compatibility's sake. While binutils < 2.24 appear to produce a vdso.so with both flags clear, 2.24 always sets EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_SOFT, with no way to inhibit this behavior. So we have to fix things up with a custom post-processing step. In fact, the VDSO code in glibc does much less validation (including checking these flags) than the code for handling conventional file-backed shared libraries, so this is a bit moot unless glibc's VDSO code becomes more strict.

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory for modules. So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address allocated in module_alloc(). __vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a guard hole after allocated area. Guard hole in shadow memory should be a problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory at address occupied by guard hole. So we could fail to allocate shadow for module_alloc(). Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into __vmalloc_node_range(). Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to __vmalloc_node_range() function.

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.

This patch introduce kprobeopt for ARM 32. Limitations: - Currently only kernel compiled with ARM ISA is supported. - Offset between probe point and optinsn slot must not larger than 32MiB. Masami Hiramatsu suggests replacing 2 words, it will make things complex. Futher patch can make such optimization. Kprobe opt on ARM is relatively simpler than kprobe opt on x86 because ARM instruction is always 4 bytes aligned and 4 bytes long. This patch replace probed instruction by a 'b', branch to trampoline code and then calls optimized_callback(). optimized_callback() calls opt_pre_handler() to execute kprobe handler. It also emulate/simulate replaced instruction. When unregistering kprobe, the deferred manner of unoptimizer may leave branch instruction before optimizer is called. Different from x86_64, which only copy the probed insn after optprobe_template_end and reexecute them, this patch call singlestep to emulate/simulate the insn directly. Futher patch can optimize this behavior.

If the overflow threshold for a counter is set above or near the 0xffffffff boundary then the kernel may lose track of the overflow causing only events that occur *after* the overflow to be recorded. Specifically the problem occurs when the value of the performance counter overtakes its original programmed value due to wrap around. Typical solutions to this problem are either to avoid programming in values likely to be overtaken or to treat the overflow bit as the 33rd bit of the counter. Its somewhat fiddly to refactor the code to correctly handle the 33rd bit during irqsave sections (context switches for example) so instead we take the simpler approach of avoiding values likely to be overtaken. We set the limit to half of max_period because this matches the limit imposed in __hw_perf_event_init(). This causes a doubling of the interrupt rate for large threshold values, however even with a very fast counter ticking at 4GHz the interrupt rate would only be ~1Hz.

Currently restore_user_regs deallocates the SVC stack early in its execution and relies on no exception being taken between the deallocation and the registers being restored. The introduction of a default FIQ handler that also uses the SVC stack breaks this assumption and can result in corrupted register state. This patch works around the problem by removing the early stack deallocation and using r2 as a temporary instead. I have not found a way to do this without introducing an extra mov instruction to the macro.

Therefore, instead of relying on pci_sys_data to stash the domain number in a standard location, ARM pcibios code can be moved to the newly introduced generic PCI domains code, implemented in commits: 41e5c0f8 ("of/pci: Add pci_get_new_domain_nr() and of_get_pci_domain_nr()") 670ba0c8 ("PCI: Add generic domain handling") ARM code is made to select PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC by default, which builds core PCI code that assigns the domain number through the generic function: void pci_bus_assign_domain_nr(...) that relies on a DT property to define the domain number or falls back to a counter according to a predefined logic; its usage replaces the current domain assignment code in PCI host controllers present in the kernel.

Currently ARM associates an MSI controller with a PCI bus by defining pcibios_add_bus() and using it to call a struct hw_pci.add_bus() method. That method sets the struct pci_bus "msi" member. That's unwieldy and unnecessarily couples MSI with the PCI enumeration code. On ARM, all devices under the same PCI host bridge share an MSI controller, so add an msi_controller pointer to the struct pci_sys_data and implement pcibios_msi_controller() to retrieve it. This is a step toward moving the msi_controller pointer into the generic struct pci_host_bridge.

Add a call to dump_stack_set_arch_desc() for the generic code to print this information. Tested-by: NFelipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

The "SMP: Total of %d processors activated." message which we print in smp_cpus_done() provides no further information than the message in genreic code in smp_announce(). Kill it. Tested-by: NFelipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Drop the "CPUn: Booted secondary processor" message from info to debug level. We later print how many CPUs came online, so listing each one is redundant, and when using hotplug, can be quite noisy. Tested-by: NFelipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Convert many (but not all) printk(KERN_* to pr_* to simplify the code. We take the opportunity to join some printk lines together so we don't split the message across several lines, and we also add a few levels to some messages which were previously missing them.

Kernel-side struct msghdr is (currently) using the same layout as userland one, but it's not a one-to-one copy - even without considering 32bit compat issues, we have msg_iov, msg_name and msg_control copied to kernel[1]. It's fairly localized, so we get away with a few functions where that knowledge is needed (and we could shrink that set even more). Pretty much everything deals with the kernel-side variant and the few places that want userland one just use a bunch of force-casts to paper over the differences. The thing is, kernel-side definition of struct msghdr is *not* exposed in include/uapi - libc doesn't see it, etc. So we can add struct user_msghdr, with proper annotations and let the few places that ever deal with those beasts use it for userland pointers. Saner typechecking aside, that will allow to change the layout of kernel-side msghdr - e.g. replace msg_iov/msg_iovlen there with struct iov_iter, getting rid of the need to modify the iovec as we copy data to/from it, etc. We could introduce kernel_msghdr instead, but that would create much more noise - the absolute majority of the instances would need to have the type switched to kernel_msghdr and definition of struct msghdr in include/linux/socket.h is not going to be seen by userland anyway. This commit just introduces user_msghdr and switches the few places that are dealing with userland-side msghdr to it. [1] actually, it's even trickier than that - we copy msg_control for sendmsg, but keep the userland address on recvmsg. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
