      x86/kconfig: Consolidate unwinders into multiple choice selection · 81d38719
      Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
      There are three mutually exclusive unwinders.  Make that more obvious by
      combining them into a multiple-choice selection:
      
        CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER_UNWINDER
        CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER
        CONFIG_GUESS_UNWINDER (if CONFIG_EXPERT=y)
      
      Frame pointers are still the default (for now).
      
      The old CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER option is still used in some
      arch-independent places, so keep it around, but make it
      invisible to the user on x86 - it's now selected by
      CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER_UNWINDER=y.

      x86/kconfig: Make it easier to switch to the new ORC unwinder · a34a766f
      Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
      A couple of Kconfig changes which make it much easier to switch to the
      new CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER:
      
      1) Remove x86 dependencies on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER for lockdep,
         latencytop, and fault injection.  x86 has a 'guess' unwinder which
         just scans the stack for kernel text addresses.  It's not 100%
         accurate but in many cases it's good enough.  This allows those users
         who don't want the text overhead of the frame pointer or ORC
         unwinders to still use these features.  More importantly, this also
         makes it much more straightforward to disable frame pointers.
      
      2) Make CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER depend on !CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.  While it
         would be possible to have both enabled, it doesn't really make sense
         to do so.  So enforce a sane configuration to prevent the user from
         making a dumb mistake.
      
      With these changes, when you disable CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, "make
      oldconfig" will ask if you want to enable CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER.

      x86/unwind: Add the ORC unwinder · ee9f8fce
      Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
      Add the new ORC unwinder which is enabled by CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER=y.
      It plugs into the existing x86 unwinder framework.
      
      It relies on objtool to generate the needed .orc_unwind and
      .orc_unwind_ip sections.
      
      For more details on why ORC is used instead of DWARF, see
      Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt - but the short version is
      that it's a simplified, fundamentally more robust debugninfo
      data structure, which also allows up to two orders of magnitude
      faster lookups than the DWARF unwinder - which matters to
      profiling workloads like perf.
      
      Thanks to Andy Lutomirski for the performance improvement ideas:
      splitting the ORC unwind table into two parallel arrays and creating a
      fast lookup table to search a subset of the unwind table.

      usb/early: Add driver for xhci debug capability · aeb9dd1d
      Lu Baolu 提交于
      XHCI debug capability (DbC) is an optional but standalone
      functionality provided by an xHCI host controller. Software
      learns this capability by walking through the extended
      capability list of the host. XHCI specification describes
      DbC in section 7.6.
      
      This patch introduces the code to probe and initialize the
      debug capability hardware during early boot. With hardware
      initialized, the debug target (system on which this code is
      running) will present a debug device through the debug port
      (normally the first USB3 port). The debug device is fully
      compliant with the USB framework and provides the equivalent
      of a very high performance (USB3) full-duplex serial link
      between the debug host and target. The DbC functionality is
      independent of the xHCI host. There isn't any precondition
      from the xHCI host side for the DbC to work.
      
      One use for this feature is kernel debugging, for example
      when your machine crashes very early before the regular
      console code is initialized. Other uses include simpler,
      lockless logging instead of a full-blown printk console
      driver and klogd.

      x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_DEBUG_NX_TEST · 3ad38ceb
      Kees Cook 提交于
      CONFIG_DEBUG_NX_TEST has been broken since CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y
      was added in v2.6.37 via:
      
        84e1c6bb ("x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules")
      
      since the exception table was then made read-only.
      
      Additionally, the manually constructed extables were never fixed when
      relative extables were introduced in v3.5 via:
      
        70627654 ("x86, extable: Switch to relative exception table entries")
      
      However, relative extables won't work for test_nx.c, since test instruction
      memory areas may be more than INT_MAX away from an executable fixup
      (e.g. stack and heap too far away from executable memory with the fixup).
      
      Since clearly no one has been using this code for a while now, and similar
      tests exist in LKDTM, this should just be removed entirely.

      x86/cpufeature: Replace the old static_cpu_has() with safe variant · bc696ca0
      Borislav Petkov 提交于
      So the old one didn't work properly before alternatives had run.
      And it was supposed to provide an optimized JMP because the
      assumption was that the offset it is jumping to is within a
      signed byte and thus a two-byte JMP.
      
      So I did an x86_64 allyesconfig build and dumped all possible
      sites where static_cpu_has() was used. The optimization amounted
      to all in all 12(!) places where static_cpu_has() had generated
      a 2-byte JMP. Which has saved us a whopping 36 bytes!
      
      This clearly is not worth the trouble so we can remove it. The
      only place where the optimization might count - in __switch_to()
      - we will handle differently. But that's not subject of this
      patch.

      x86/mm: Warn on W^X mappings · e1a58320

      Warn on any residual W+X mappings after setting NX
      if DEBUG_WX is enabled.  Introduce a separate
      X86_PTDUMP_CORE config that enables the code for
      dumping the page tables without enabling the debugfs

      exposing the debugfs interface.  Switch EFI_PGT_DUMP
      to using X86_PTDUMP_CORE so that it also does not require
      enabling the debugfs interface.
      
      On success it prints this to the kernel log:

      x86/entry/64, x86/nmi/64: Add CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY NMI testing code · a97439aa
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      It turns out to be rather tedious to test the NMI nesting code.
      Make it easier: add a new CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY option that causes
      the NMI handler to pre-emptively unmask NMIs.
      
      With this option set, errors in the repeat_nmi logic or failures
      to detect that we're in a nested NMI will result in quick panics
      under perf (especially if multiple counters are running at high
      frequency) instead of requiring an unusual workload that
      generates page faults or breakpoints inside NMIs.
      
      I called it CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY instead of CONFIG_DEBUG_NMI_ENTRY
      because I want to add new non-NMI checks elsewhere in the entry
      code in the future, and I'd rather not add too many new config
      options or add this option and then immediately rename it.

      x86/intel/quark: Add Isolated Memory Regions for Quark X1000 · 28a375df
      Bryan O'Donoghue 提交于
      Intel's Quark X1000 SoC contains a set of registers called
      Isolated Memory Regions. IMRs are accessed over the IOSF mailbox
      interface. IMRs are areas carved out of memory that define
      read/write access rights to the various system agents within the
      Quark system. For a given agent in the system it is possible to
      specify if that agent may read or write an area of memory
      defined by an IMR with a granularity of 1 KiB.
      
      Quark_SecureBootPRM_330234_001.pdf section 4.5 details the
      concept of IMRs quark-x1000-datasheet.pdf section 12.7.4 details
      the implementation of IMRs in silicon.
      
      eSRAM flush, CPU Snoop write-only, CPU SMM Mode, CPU non-SMM
      mode, RMU and PCIe Virtual Channels (VC0 and VC1) can have
      individual read/write access masks applied to them for a given
      memory region in Quark X1000. This enables IMRs to treat each
      memory transaction type listed above on an individual basis and
      to filter appropriately based on the IMR access mask for the
      memory region. Quark supports eight IMRs.
      
      Since all of the DMA capable SoC components in the X1000 are
      mapped to VC0 it is possible to define sections of memory as
      invalid for DMA write operations originating from Ethernet, USB,
      SD and any other DMA capable south-cluster component on VC0.
      Similarly it is possible to mark kernel memory as non-SMM mode
      read/write only or to mark BIOS runtime memory as SMM mode
      accessible only depending on the particular memory footprint on
      a given system.
      
      On an IMR violation Quark SoC X1000 systems are configured to
      reset the system, so ensuring that the IMR memory map is
      consistent with the EFI provided memory map is critical to
      ensure no IMR violations reset the system.
      
      The API for accessing IMRs is based on MTRR code but doesn't
      provide a /proc or /sys interface to manipulate IMRs. Defining
      the size and extent of IMRs is exclusively the domain of
      in-kernel code.
      
      Quark firmware sets up a series of locked IMRs around pieces of
      memory that firmware owns such as ACPI runtime data. During boot
      a series of unlocked IMRs are placed around items in memory to
      guarantee no DMA modification of those items can take place.
      Grub also places an unlocked IMR around the kernel boot params
      data structure and compressed kernel image. It is necessary for
      the kernel to tear down all unlocked IMRs in order to ensure
      that the kernel's view of memory passed via the EFI memory map
      is consistent with the IMR memory map. Without tearing down all
      unlocked IMRs on boot transitory IMRs such as those used to
      protect the compressed kernel image will cause IMR violations and system reboots.
      
      The IMR init code tears down all unlocked IMRs and sets a
      protective IMR around the kernel .text and .rodata as one
      contiguous block. This sanitizes the IMR memory map with respect
      to the EFI memory map and protects the read-only portions of the
      kernel from unwarranted DMA access.

      x86: Sanity-check static_cpu_has usage · 5700f743
      Borislav Petkov 提交于
      static_cpu_has may be used only after alternatives have run. Before that
      it always returns false if constant folding with __builtin_constant_p()
      doesn't happen. And you don't want that.
      
      This patch is the result of me debugging an issue where I overzealously
      put static_cpu_has in code which executed before alternatives have run
      and had to spend some time with scratching head and cursing at the
      monitor.
      
      So add a jump to a warning which screams loudly when we use this
      function too early. The alternatives patch that check away in
      conjunction with patching the rest of the kernel image.
      
      [ hpa: factored this into its own configuration option.  If we want to
        have an overarching option, it should be an option which selects
        other options, not as a group option in the source code. ]

      Kconfig: consolidate CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS · 446f24d1
      Stephen Boyd 提交于
      The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
      s390 Kconfig.debug files.  Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
      slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
      option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.
      
      To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
      and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
      this config.
      
      Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
      enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
      warnings vs.  ones which emit errors.  The details of how an
      architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
      concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.
      
      While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
      that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
      architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

      x86, NMI: Add NMI IPI selftest · 99e8b9ca
      Don Zickus 提交于
      The previous patch modified the stop cpus path to use NMI
      instead of IRQ as the way to communicate to the other cpus to
      shutdown.  There were some concerns that various machines may
      have problems with using an NMI IPI.
      
      This patch creates a selftest to check if NMI is working at
      boot. The idea is to help catch any issues before the machine
      panics and we learn the hard way.
      
      Loosely based on the locking-selftest.c file, this separate file
      runs a couple of simple tests and reports the results.  The
      output looks like:
      
      ...
      Brought up 4 CPUs

      x86: Check stack overflow in detail · 37fe6a42

      Currently, only kernel stack is checked for the overflow, which

      kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT · 6a108a14
      David Rientjes 提交于
      The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
      is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
      only small devices.
      
      This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
      references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
      option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
      can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
      considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
      
      Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
      expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
      are making should enable it.

      x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules · 84e1c6bb
      matthieu castet 提交于
      This patch is a logical extension of the protection provided by
      CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to LKMs. The protection is provided by
      splitting module_core and module_init into three logical parts
      each and setting appropriate page access permissions for each
      individual section:
      
       1. Code: RO+X
       2. RO data: RO+NX
       3. RW data: RW+NX
      
      In order to achieve proper protection, layout_sections() have
      been modified to align each of the three parts mentioned above
      onto page boundary. Next, the corresponding page access
      permissions are set right before successful exit from
      load_module(). Further, free_module() and sys_init_module have
      been modified to set module_core and module_init as RW+NX right
      before calling module_free().
      
      By default, the original section layout and access flags are
      preserved. When compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y,
      the patch will page-align each group of sections to ensure that
      each page contains only one type of content and will enforce
      RO/NX for each group of pages.
      
        -v1: Initial proof-of-concept patch.
        -v2: The patch have been re-written to reduce the number of #ifdefs
             and to make it architecture-agnostic. Code formatting has also
             been corrected.
        -v3: Opportunistic RO/NX protection is now unconditional. Section
             page-alignment is enabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y.
        -v4: Removed most macros and improved coding style.
        -v5: Changed page-alignment and RO/NX section size calculation
        -v6: Fixed comments. Restricted RO/NX enforcement to x86 only
        -v7: Introduced CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, added
             calls to set_all_modules_text_rw() and set_all_modules_text_ro()
             in ftrace
        -v8: updated for compatibility with linux 2.6.33-rc5

      x86, earlyprintk: Add earlyprintk for Intel Moorestown platform · c20b5c33

      Intel Moorestown platform has a spi-uart device(Maxim3110),
      which connects to a Designware spi core controller. This patch
      will add early console function based on it.
      
      As it will be used long before Linux spi subsystem get
      initialised, we simply directly manipulate the spi controller's
      register to acheive the early console func. This is safe as it
      will be disabled when devices subsytem get initialised.
      
      To use it, user need enable CONFIG_X86_MRST_EARLY_PRINTK in
      kenrel config and add "earlyprintk=mrst" in kernel command line.
