      x86/Kconfig: Further simplify the NR_CPUS config · aec6487e
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Clean up various aspects of the x86 CONFIG_NR_CPUS configuration switches:
      
      - Rename the three CONFIG_NR_CPUS related variables to create a common
        namespace for them:
      
          RANGE_BEGIN_CPUS => NR_CPUS_RANGE_BEGIN
          RANGE_END_CPUS   => NR_CPUS_RANGE_END
          DEF_CONFIG_CPUS  => NR_CPUS_DEFAULT
      
      - Align them vertically, such as:
      
          config NR_CPUS_RANGE_END
                  int
                  depends on X86_64

                  default  512 if  SMP && (!MAXSMP && !CPUMASK_OFFSTACK)
                  default    1 if !SMP

      x86/Kconfig: Simplify NR_CPUS config · a0d0bb4d
      Randy Dunlap 提交于
      Clean up and simplify the X86 NR_CPUS Kconfig symbol/option by
      introducing RANGE_BEGIN_CPUS, RANGE_END_CPUS, and DEF_CONFIG_CPUS.
      Then combine some default values when their conditionals can be
      reduced.
      
      Also move the X86_BIGSMP kconfig option inside an "if X86_32"/"endif"
      config block and drop its explicit "depends on X86_32".
      
      Combine the max. 8192 cases of RANGE_END_CPUS (X86_64 only).
      Split RANGE_END_CPUS and DEF_CONFIG_CPUS into separate cases for
      X86_32 and X86_64.

      membarrier/x86: Provide core serializing command · 10bcc80e
      Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于
      There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier:
      
      1) When returning from the membarrier IPI,
      2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before
         going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to
         check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU.
      
      x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, and both IRET and SYSEXIT to go
      back to user-space. The IRET instruction is core serializing, but not
      SYSEXIT.
      
      x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
      However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat
      code), SYSRETQ, or IRET. Given that SYSRET{L,Q} is not core serializing,
      we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core
      serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special
      case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into
      active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case.
      
      Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.

      error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobe · 540adea3
      Masami Hiramatsu 提交于
      Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used
      by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it
      freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g.
      livepatch, ftrace etc.
      So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes.
      
      Some differences has been made:
      
      - "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures.
      - BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to
        ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too.
      - CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this
        feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports
        error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc.

      x86/retpoline: Add initial retpoline support · 76b04384
      David Woodhouse 提交于
      Enable the use of -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern in newer GCC, and provide
      the corresponding thunks. Provide assembler macros for invoking the thunks
      in the same way that GCC does, from native and inline assembler.
      
      This adds X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE and sets it by default on all CPUs. In
      some circumstances, IBRS microcode features may be used instead, and the
      retpoline can be disabled.
      
      On AMD CPUs if lfence is serialising, the retpoline can be dramatically
      simplified to a simple "lfence; jmp *\reg". A future patch, after it has
      been verified that lfence really is serialising in all circumstances, can
      enable this by setting the X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE_AMD feature bit in addition
      to X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE.
      
      Do not align the retpoline in the altinstr section, because there is no
      guarantee that it stays aligned when it's copied over the oldinstr during
      alternative patching.

      phys_to_dma, dma_to_phys and dma_capable are helpers published by
      architecture code for use of swiotlb and xen-swiotlb only.  Drivers are
      not supposed to use these directly, but use the DMA API instead.
      
      Move these to a new asm/dma-direct.h helper, included by a
      linux/dma-direct.h wrapper that provides the default linear mapping
      unless the architecture wants to override it.
      
      In the MIPS case the existing dma-coherent.h is reused for now as

        ... for easier x86 PTI code testing and back-porting. ]
      
      The KASAN shadow is currently mapped using vmemmap_populate() since that

      since that no longer zeroes the mapped pages, it is not suitable for
      KASAN, which requires zeroed shadow memory.
      
      Add kasan_populate_shadow() interface and use it instead of
      vmemmap_populate().  Besides, this allows us to take advantage of
      gigantic pages and use them to populate the shadow, which should save us
      some memory wasted on page tables and reduce TLB pressure.

      x86/umip: Enable User-Mode Instruction Prevention at runtime · aa35f896
      Ricardo Neri 提交于
      User-Mode Instruction Prevention (UMIP) is enabled by setting/clearing a
      bit in %cr4.
      
      It makes sense to enable UMIP at some point while booting, before user
      spaces come up. Like SMAP and SMEP, is not critical to have it enabled
      very early during boot. This is because UMIP is relevant only when there is
      a user space to be protected from. Given these similarities, UMIP can be
      enabled along with SMAP and SMEP.
      
      At the moment, UMIP is disabled by default at build time. It can be enabled
      at build time by selecting CONFIG_X86_INTEL_UMIP. If enabled at build time,
      it can be disabled at run time by adding clearcpuid=514 to the kernel
      parameters.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      x86/kasan: Use the same shadow offset for 4- and 5-level paging · 12a8cc7f
      Andrey Ryabinin 提交于
      We are going to support boot-time switching between 4- and 5-level
      paging. For KASAN it means we cannot have different KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET
      for different paging modes: the constant is passed to gcc to generate
      code and cannot be changed at runtime.
      
      This patch changes KASAN code to use 0xdffffc0000000000 as shadow offset
      for both 4- and 5-level paging.
      
      For 5-level paging it means that shadow memory region is not aligned to
      PGD boundary anymore and we have to handle unaligned parts of the region
      properly.
      
      In addition, we have to exclude paravirt code from KASAN instrumentation
      as we now use set_pgd() before KASAN is fully ready.

      x86,mpx: make mpx depend on x86-64 to free up VMA flag · df3735c5
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      Patch series "mm,fork,security: introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK", v4.
      
      If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_WIPEONFORK, it will get
      zeroes.  The address ranges are still valid, they are just empty.
      
      If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_DONTFORK, it will get a
      segmentation fault, since those address ranges are no longer valid in
      the child after fork.
      
      Since MADV_DONTFORK also seems to be used to allow very large programs
      to fork in systems with strict memory overcommit restrictions, changing
      the semantics of MADV_DONTFORK might break existing programs.
      
      The use case is libraries that store or cache information, and want to
      know that they need to regenerate it in the child process after fork.
      
      Examples of this would be:
       - systemd/pulseaudio API checks (fail after fork) (replacing a getpid
         check, which is too slow without a PID cache)
       - PKCS#11 API reinitialization check (mandated by specification)
       - glibc's upcoming PRNG (reseed after fork)
       - OpenSSL PRNG (reseed after fork)
      
      The security benefits of a forking server having a re-inialized PRNG in
      every child process are pretty obvious.  However, due to libraries
      having all kinds of internal state, and programs getting compiled with
      many different versions of each library, it is unreasonable to expect
      calling programs to re-initialize everything manually after fork.
      
      A further complication is the proliferation of clone flags, programs
      bypassing glibc's functions to call clone directly, and programs calling
      unshare, causing the glibc pthread_atfork hook to not get called.
      
      It would be better to have the kernel take care of this automatically.
      
      The patchset also adds MADV_KEEPONFORK, to undo the effects of a prior
      MADV_WIPEONFORK.
      
      This is similar to the OpenBSD minherit syscall with MAP_INHERIT_ZERO:
      
          https://man.openbsd.org/minherit.2
      
      This patch (of 2):
      
      MPX only seems to be available on 64 bit CPUs, starting with Skylake and
      Goldmont.  Move VM_MPX into the 64 bit only portion of vma->vm_flags, in
      order to free up a VMA flag.

      libnvdimm, nd_blk: remove mmio_flush_range() · 5deb67f7
      Robin Murphy 提交于
      mmio_flush_range() suffers from a lack of clearly-defined semantics,
      and is somewhat ambiguous to port to other architectures where the
      scope of the writeback implied by "flush" and ordering might matter,
      but MMIO would tend to imply non-cacheable anyway. Per the rationale
      in 67a3e8fe ("nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB"), the
      only existing use is actually to invalidate clean cache lines for
      ARCH_MEMREMAP_PMEM type mappings *without* writeback. Since the recent
      cleanup of the pmem API, that also now happens to be the exact purpose
      of arch_invalidate_pmem(), which would be a far more well-defined tool
      for the job.
      
      Rather than risk potentially inconsistent implementations of
      mmio_flush_range() for the sake of one callsite, streamline things by
      removing it entirely and instead move the ARCH_MEMREMAP_PMEM related
      definitions up to the libnvdimm level, so they can be shared by NFIT
      as well. This allows NFIT to be enabled for arm64.
