This adds support for emitting PLTs at module load time for relative branches that are out of range. This is a prerequisite for KASLR, which may place the kernel and the modules anywhere in the vmalloc area, making it more likely that branch target offsets exceed the maximum range of +/- 128 MB. In this version, I removed the distinction between relocations against .init executable sections and ordinary executable sections. The reason is that it is hardly worth the trouble, given that .init.text usually does not contain that many far branches, and this version now only reserves PLT entry space for jump and call relocations against undefined symbols (since symbols defined in the same module can be assumed to be within +/- 128 MB) For example, the mac80211.ko module (which is fairly sizable at ~400 KB) built with -mcmodel=large gives the following relocation counts: relocs branches unique !local .text 3925 3347 518 219 .init.text 11 8 7 1 .exit.text 4 4 4 1 .text.unlikely 81 67 36 17 ('unique' means branches to unique type/symbol/addend combos, of which !local is the subset referring to undefined symbols) IOW, we are only emitting a single PLT entry for the .init sections, and we are better off just adding it to the core PLT section instead.

This relaxes the kernel Image placement requirements, so that it may be placed at any 2 MB aligned offset in physical memory. This is accomplished by ignoring PHYS_OFFSET when installing memblocks, and accounting for the apparent virtual offset of the kernel Image. As a result, virtual address references below PAGE_OFFSET are correctly mapped onto physical references into the kernel Image regardless of where it sits in memory. Special care needs to be taken for dealing with memory limits passed via mem=, since the generic implementation clips memory top down, which may clip the kernel image itself if it is loaded high up in memory. To deal with this case, we simply add back the memory covering the kernel image, which may result in more memory to be retained than was passed as a mem= parameter. Since mem= should not be considered a production feature, a panic notifier handler is installed that dumps the memory limit at panic time if one was set.

This introduces the preprocessor symbol KIMAGE_VADDR which will serve as the symbolic virtual base of the kernel region, i.e., the kernel's virtual offset will be KIMAGE_VADDR + TEXT_OFFSET. For now, we define it as being equal to PAGE_OFFSET, but in the future, it will be moved below it once we move the kernel virtual mapping out of the linear mapping.

If a CPU supports both Privileged Access Never (PAN) and User Access Override (UAO), we don't need to disable/re-enable PAN round all copy_to_user() like calls. UAO alternatives cause these calls to use the 'unprivileged' load/store instructions, which are overridden to be the privileged kind when fs==KERNEL_DS. This patch changes the copy_to_user() calls to have their PAN toggling depend on a new composite 'feature' ARM64_ALT_PAN_NOT_UAO. If both features are detected, PAN will be enabled, but the copy_to_user() alternatives will not be applied. This means PAN will be enabled all the time for these functions. If only PAN is detected, the toggling will be enabled as normal. This will save the time taken to disable/re-enable PAN, and allow us to catch copy_to_user() accesses that occur with fs==KERNEL_DS. Futex and swp-emulation code continue to hang their PAN toggling code on ARM64_HAS_PAN. Signed-off-by: NJames Morse <james.morse@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

CPU feature code uses the desc field as a test to find the end of the list, this means every entry must have a description. This generates noise for entries in the list that aren't really features, but combinations of them. e.g. > CPU features: detected feature: Privileged Access Never > CPU features: detected feature: PAN and not UAO These combination features are needed for corner cases with alternatives, where cpu features interact. Change all walkers of the arm64_features[] and arm64_hwcaps[] lists to test 'matches' not 'desc', and only print 'desc' if it is non-NULL.

'User Access Override' is a new ARMv8.2 feature which allows the unprivileged load and store instructions to be overridden to behave in the normal way. This patch converts {get,put}_user() and friends to use ldtr*/sttr* instructions - so that they can only access EL0 memory, then enables UAO when fs==KERNEL_DS so that these functions can access kernel memory. This allows user space's read/write permissions to be checked against the page tables, instead of testing addr<USER_DS, then using the kernel's read/write permissions.

Older assemblers may not have support for newer feature registers. To get round this, sysreg.h provides a 'mrs_s' macro that takes a register encoding and generates the raw instruction. Change read_cpuid() to use mrs_s in all cases so that new registers don't have to be a special case. Including sysreg.h means we need to move the include and definition of read_cpuid() after the #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ to avoid syntax errors in vmlinux.lds.

Although the arm64 vDSO is cleanly separated by code/data with the code being read-only in userspace mappings, the code page is still writable from the kernel. There have been exploits (such as http://itszn.com/blog/?p=21) that take advantage of this on x86 to go from a bad kernel write to full root. Prevent this specific exploit on arm64 by putting the vDSO code page in read-only memory as well.

The SBBR and ACPI specifications allow ACPI based systems that do not implement PSCI (eg systems with no EL3) to boot through the ACPI parking protocol specification[1]. This patch implements the ACPI parking protocol CPU operations, and adds code that eases parsing the parking protocol data structures to the ARM64 SMP initializion carried out at the same time as cpus enumeration. To wake-up the CPUs from the parked state, this patch implements a wakeup IPI for ARM64 (ie arch_send_wakeup_ipi_mask()) that mirrors the ARM one, so that a specific IPI is sent for wake-up purpose in order to distinguish it from other IPI sources. Given the current ACPI MADT parsing API, the patch implements a glue layer that helps passing MADT GICC data structure from SMP initialization code to the parking protocol implementation somewhat overriding the CPU operations interfaces. This to avoid creating a completely trasparent DT/ACPI CPU operations layer that would require creating opaque structure handling for CPUs data (DT represents CPU through DT nodes, ACPI through static MADT table entries), which seems overkill given that ACPI on ARM64 mandates only two booting protocols (PSCI and parking protocol), so there is no need for further protocol additions.

Currently we have separate ALIGN_DEBUG_RO{,_MIN} directives to align _etext and __init_begin. While we ensure that __init_begin is page-aligned, we do not provide the same guarantee for _etext. This is not problematic currently as the alignment of __init_begin is sufficient to prevent issues when we modify permissions. Subsequent patches will assume page alignment of segments of the kernel we wish to map with different permissions. To ensure this, move _etext after the ALIGN_DEBUG_RO_MIN for the init section. This renders the prior ALIGN_DEBUG_RO irrelevant, and hence it is removed. Likewise, upgrade to ALIGN_DEBUG_RO_MIN(PAGE_SIZE) for _stext.

Currently the zero page is set up in paging_init, and thus we cannot use the zero page earlier. We use the zero page as a reserved TTBR value from which no TLB entries may be allocated (e.g. when uninstalling the idmap). To enable such usage earlier (as may be required for invasive changes to the kernel page tables), and to minimise the time that the idmap is active, we need to be able to use the zero page before paging_init. This patch follows the example set by x86, by allocating the zero page at compile time, in .bss. This means that the zero page itself is available immediately upon entry to start_kernel (as we zero .bss before this), and also means that the zero page takes up no space in the raw Image binary. The associated struct page is allocated in bootmem_init, and remains unavailable until this time. Outside of arch code, the only users of empty_zero_page assume that the empty_zero_page symbol refers to the zeroed memory itself, and that ZERO_PAGE(x) must be used to acquire the associated struct page, following the example of x86. This patch also brings arm64 inline with these assumptions.

Commit e8f3010f ("arm64/efi: isolate EFI stub from the kernel proper") isolated the EFI stub code from the kernel proper by prefixing all of its symbols with __efistub_, and selectively allowing access to core kernel symbols from the stub by emitting __efistub_ aliases for functions and variables that the stub can access legally. As an unintended side effect, these aliases are emitted into the kallsyms symbol table, which means they may turn up in backtraces, e.g., ... PC is at __efistub_memset+0x108/0x200 LR is at fixup_init+0x3c/0x48 ... [<ffffff8008328608>] __efistub_memset+0x108/0x200 [<ffffff8008094dcc>] free_initmem+0x2c/0x40 [<ffffff8008645198>] kernel_init+0x20/0xe0 [<ffffff8008085cd0>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x40 The backtrace in question has nothing to do with the EFI stub, but simply returns one of the several aliases of memset() that have been recorded in the kallsyms table. This is undesirable, since it may suggest to people who are not aware of this that the issue they are seeing is somehow EFI related. So hide the __efistub_ aliases from kallsyms, by emitting them as absolute linker symbols explicitly. The distinction between those and section relative symbols is completely irrelevant to these definitions, and to the final link we are performing when these definitions are being taken into account (the distinction is only relevant to symbols defined inside a section definition when performing a partial link), and so the resulting values are identical to the original ones. Since absolute symbols are ignored by kallsyms, this will result in these values to be omitted from its symbol table. After this patch, the backtrace generated from the same address looks like this: ... PC is at __memset+0x108/0x200 LR is at fixup_init+0x3c/0x48 ...

Currently we use an open-coded memzero to clear the BSS. As it is a trivial implementation, it is sub-optimal. Our optimised memset doesn't use the stack, is position-independent, and for the memzero case can use of DC ZVA to clear large blocks efficiently. In __mmap_switched the MMU is on and there are no live caller-saved registers, so we can safely call an uninstrumented memset. This patch changes __mmap_switched to use memset when clearing the BSS. We use the __pi_memset alias so as to avoid any instrumentation in all kernel configurations.

In work_pending, we may skip work if the stacked SPSR value represents anything other than an EL0 context. We then immediately invoke the kernel_exit 0 macro as part of ret_to_user, assuming a return to EL0. This is somewhat confusing. We use work_pending as part of the ret_to_user/ret_fast_syscall state machine. We only use ret_fast_syscall in the return from an SVC issued from EL0. We use ret_to_user for return from EL0 exception handlers and also for return from ret_from_fork in the case the task was not a kernel thread (i.e. it is a user task). Thus in all cases the stacked SPSR value must represent an EL0 context, and the check is redundant. This patch removes it, along with the now unused no_work_pending label.

Compilers may engage the improbability drive when encountering shifts by a distance that is a multiple of the size of the operand type. Since the required bounds check is very simple here, we can get rid of all the fuzzy masking, shifting and comparing, and use the documented bounds directly.

The test whether a movz instruction with a signed immediate should be turned into a movn instruction (i.e., when the immediate is negative) is flawed, since the value of imm is always positive. Also, the subsequent bounds check is incorrect since the limit update never executes, due to the fact that the imm_type comparison will always be false for negative signed immediates. Let's fix this by performing the sign test on sval directly, and replacing the bounds check with a simple comparison against U16_MAX.

Commit ac7b406c ("arm64: Use pr_* instead of printk") was a fairly mindless s/printk/pr_*/ change driven by a complaint from checkpatch. As is usual with such changes, this has led to some odd behaviour on arm64: * syslog now picks up the "pr_emerg" line from dump_backtrace, but not the actual trace, which leads to a bunch of "kernel:Call trace:" lines in the log * __{pte,pmd,pgd}_error print at KERN_CRIT, as opposed to KERN_ERR which is used by other architectures. This patch restores the original printk behaviour for dump_backtrace and downgrade the pgtable error macros to KERN_ERR. Signed-off-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

Function graph tracer modifies a return address (LR) in a stack frame to hook a function return. This will result in many useless entries (return_to_handler) showing up in a) a stack tracer's output b) perf call graph (with perf record -g) c) dump_backtrace (at panic et al.)

Function graph tracer modifies a return address (LR) in a stack frame to hook a function's return. This will result in many useless entries (return_to_handler) showing up in a call stack list. We will fix this problem in a later patch ("arm64: ftrace: fix a stack tracer's output under function graph tracer"). But since real return addresses are saved in ret_stack[] array in struct task_struct, unwind functions need to be notified of, in addition to a stack pointer address, which task is being traced in order to find out real return addresses. This patch extends unwind functions' interfaces by adding an extra argument of a pointer to task_struct.

Function graph tracer modifies a return address (LR) in a stack frame by calling ftrace_prepare_return() in a traced function's function prologue. The current code does this modification before preserving an original address at ftrace_push_return_trace() and there is always a small window of inconsistency when an interrupt occurs. This doesn't matter, as far as an interrupt stack is introduced, because stack tracer won't be invoked in an interrupt context. But it would be better to proactively minimize such a window by moving the LR modification after ftrace_push_return_trace().

sysrq_handle_reboot() re-enables interrupts while on the irq stack. The irq_stack implementation wrongly assumed this would only ever happen via the softirq path, allowing it to update irq_count late, in do_softirq_own_stack(). This means if an irq occurs in sysrq_handle_reboot(), during emergency_restart() the stack will be corrupted, as irq_count wasn't updated. Lose the optimisation, and instead of moving the adding/subtracting of irq_count into irq_stack_entry/irq_stack_exit, remove it, and compare sp_el0 (struct thread_info) with sp & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1). This tells us if we are on a task stack, if so, we can safely switch to the irq stack. Finally, remove do_softirq_own_stack(), we don't need it anymore.

The pmuserenr_el0 register value is architecturally UNKNOWN on reset. Current kernel code resets that register value iff the core pmu device is correctly probed in the kernel. On platforms with missing DT pmu nodes (or disabled perf events in the kernel), the pmu is not probed, therefore the pmuserenr_el0 register is not reset in the kernel, which means that its value retains the reset value that is architecturally UNKNOWN (system may run with eg pmuserenr_el0 == 0x1, which means that PMU counters access is available at EL0, which must be disallowed). This patch adds code that resets pmuserenr_el0 on cold boot and restores it on core resume from shutdown, so that the pmuserenr_el0 setup is always enforced in the kernel.

The code for switching to irq_stack stores three pieces of information on the stack, fp+lr, as a fake stack frame (that lets us walk back onto the interrupted tasks stack frame), and the address of the struct pt_regs that contains the register values from kernel entry. (which dump_backtrace() will print in any stack trace). To reduce this, we store fp, and the pointer to the struct pt_regs. unwind_frame() can recognise this as the irq_stack dummy frame, (as it only appears at the top of the irq_stack), and use the struct pt_regs values to find the missing interrupted link-register.

Currently we treat the alternatives separately from other data that's only used during initialisation, using separate .altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement linker sections. These are freed for general allocation separately from .init*. This is problematic as: * We do not remove execute permissions, as we do for .init, leaving the memory executable. * We pad between them, making the kernel Image bianry up to PAGE_SIZE bytes larger than necessary. This patch moves the two sections into the contiguous region used for .init*. This saves some memory, ensures that we remove execute permissions, and allows us to remove some code made redundant by this reorganisation.

Currently we place an ALIGN_DEBUG_RO between text and data for the .text and .init sections, and depending on configuration each of these may result in up to SECTION_SIZE bytes worth of padding (for DEBUG_RODATA_ALIGN). We make no distinction between the text and data in each of these sections at any point when creating the initial page tables in head.S. We also make no distinction when modifying the tables; __map_memblock, fixup_executable, mark_rodata_ro, and fixup_init only work at section granularity. Thus this padding is unnecessary. For the spit between init text and data we impose a minimum alignment of 16 bytes, but this is also unnecessary. The init data is output immediately after the padding before any symbols are defined, so this is not required to keep a symbol for linker a section array correctly associated with the data. Any objects within the section will be given at least their usual alignment regardless. This patch removes the redundant padding.
