The stack address doesn't need to be stored in tss.sp0 if the stack is switched manually like on sysenter. Rename the offset so that it still makes sense when its location is changed in later patches. This stackk will also be used for all kernel-entry points, not just sysenter. Reflect that and the fact that it is the offset to the task-stack location in the name as well.

Omitting suffixes from instructions in AT&T mode is bad practice when operand size cannot be determined by the assembler from register operands, and is likely going to be warned about by upstream GAS in the future (mine does already).

The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler supported. That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support directly. HOWEVER. It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file, the sane stack protector configuration would look like CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes, it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would disable it in the new config, resulting in: CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing. The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack protector option, but also the strong one. This does that by just removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users). This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes. The end result would generally look like this: CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler infrastructure, not the user selections.

The 2016 version of Hyper-V offers the option to operate the guest VM per-vcpu stimer's in Direct Mode, which means the timer interupts on its own vector rather than queueing a VMbus message. Direct Mode reduces timer processing overhead in both the hypervisor and the guest, and avoids having timer interrupts pollute the VMbus interrupt stream for the synthetic NIC and storage. This patch enables Direct Mode by default on stimer0 when running on a version of Hyper-V that supports it. In prep for coming support of Hyper-V on ARM64, the arch independent portion of the code contains calls to routines that will be populated on ARM64 but are not needed and do nothing on x86.

This reverts commit 1dde7415. By putting the RSB filling out of line and calling it, we waste one RSB slot for returning from the function itself, which means one fewer actual function call we can make if we're doing the Skylake abomination of call-depth counting. It also changed the number of RSB stuffings we do on vmexit from 32, which was correct, to 16. Let's just stop with the bikeshedding; it didn't actually *fix* anything anyway.

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.

Hyper-V supports Live Migration notification. This is supposed to be used in conjunction with TSC emulation: when a VM is migrated to a host with different TSC frequency for some short period the host emulates the accesses to TSC and sends an interrupt to notify about the event. When the guest is done updating everything it can disable TSC emulation and everything will start working fast again. These notifications weren't required until now as Hyper-V guests are not supposed to use TSC as a clocksource: in Linux the TSC is even marked as unstable on boot. Guests normally use 'tsc page' clocksource and host updates its values on migrations automatically. Things change when with nested virtualization: even when the PV clocksources (kvm-clock or tsc page) are passed through to the nested guests the TSC frequency and frequency changes need to be know.. Hyper-V Top Level Functional Specification (as of v5.0b) wrongly specifies EAX:BIT(12) of CPUID:0x40000009 as the feature identification bit. The right one to check is EAX:BIT(13) of CPUID:0x40000003. I was assured that the fix in on the way.

On context switch from a shallow call stack to a deeper one, as the CPU does 'ret' up the deeper side it may encounter RSB entries (predictions for where the 'ret' goes to) which were populated in userspace. This is problematic if neither SMEP nor KPTI (the latter of which marks userspace pages as NX for the kernel) are active, as malicious code in userspace may then be executed speculatively. Overwrite the CPU's return prediction stack with calls which are predicted to return to an infinite loop, to "capture" speculation if this happens. This is required both for retpoline, and also in conjunction with IBRS for !SMEP && !KPTI. On Skylake+ the problem is slightly different, and an *underflow* of the RSB may cause errant branch predictions to occur. So there it's not so much overwrite, as *filling* the RSB to attempt to prevent it getting empty. This is only a partial solution for Skylake+ since there are many other conditions which may result in the RSB becoming empty. The full solution on Skylake+ is to use IBRS, which will prevent the problem even when the RSB becomes empty. With IBRS, the RSB-stuffing will not be required on context switch.

Convert indirect jumps in core 32/64bit entry assembler code to use non-speculative sequences when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled. Don't use CALL_NOSPEC in entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath because the return address after the 'call' instruction must be *precisely* at the .Lentry_SYSCALL_64_after_fastpath label for stub_ptregs_64 to work, and the use of alternatives will mess that up unless we play horrid games to prepend with NOPs and make the variants the same length.

If the kernel oopses while on the trampoline stack, it will print "<SYSENTER>" even if SYSENTER is not involved. That is rather confusing. The "SYSENTER" stack is used for a lot more than SYSENTER now. Give it a better string to display in stack dumps, and rename the kernel code to match.

I'd also be nervous about errata if we tried to make it RO even on configurations without double fault handling. [ tglx: AMD confirmed that there is no problem on 64-bit with TSS RO.

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.

On x86-32, Tetsuo Handa and Fengguang Wu reported unwinder warnings like: WARNING: kernel stack regs at f60bb9c8 in swapper:1 has bad 'bp' value 0ba00000 And also there were some stack dumps with a bunch of unreliable '?' symbols after an apic_timer_interrupt symbol, meaning the unwinder got confused when it tried to read the regs. The cause of those issues is that, with GCC 4.8 (and possibly older), there are cases where GCC misaligns the stack pointer in a leaf function for no apparent reason: c124a388 <acpi_rs_move_data>: c124a388: 55 push %ebp c124a389: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp c124a38b: 57 push %edi c124a38c: 56 push %esi c124a38d: 89 d6 mov %edx,%esi c124a38f: 53 push %ebx c124a390: 31 db xor %ebx,%ebx c124a392: 83 ec 03 sub $0x3,%esp ... c124a3e3: 83 c4 03 add $0x3,%esp c124a3e6: 5b pop %ebx c124a3e7: 5e pop %esi c124a3e8: 5f pop %edi c124a3e9: 5d pop %ebp c124a3ea: c3 ret If an interrupt occurs in such a function, the regs on the stack will be unaligned, which breaks the frame pointer encoding assumption. So on 32-bit, use the MSB instead of the LSB to encode the regs. This isn't an issue on 64-bit, because interrupts align the stack before writing to it.

Petr Mladek reported the following warning when loading the livepatch sample module: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 3699 at arch/x86/kernel/stacktrace.c:132 save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable+0x133/0x1a0 ...

The problem was introduced with the following commit: ff3f7e24 ("x86/entry: Fix the end of the stack for newly forked tasks") ... which was completely misguided. It only partially fixed the reported issue, and it introduced another bug in the process. None of the other entry code saves the frame pointer before calling into C code, so it doesn't make sense for ret_from_fork to do so either. Contrary to what I originally thought, the original issue wasn't related to newly forked tasks. It was actually related to ftrace. When entry code calls into a function which then calls into an ftrace handler, the stack frame looks different than normal. The original issue will be fixed in the unwinder, in a subsequent patch.

When unwinding a task, the end of the stack is always at the same offset right below the saved pt_regs, regardless of which syscall was used to enter the kernel. That convention allows the unwinder to verify that a stack is sane. However, newly forked tasks don't always follow that convention, as reported by the following unwinder warning seen by Dave Jones: WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at ffffc90001443f30 in kworker/u8:8:30468 has bad value (null) The warning was due to the following call chain: (ftrace handler) call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x5/0x140 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 The problem is that ret_from_fork() doesn't create a stack frame before calling other functions. Fix that by carefully using the frame pointer macros. In addition to conforming to the end of stack convention, this also makes related stack traces more sensible by making it clear to the user that ret_from_fork() was involved.

With new binutils, gcc may get smart with its optimization and change a jmp from a 5 byte jump to a 2 byte one even though it was jumping to a global function. But that global function existed within a 2 byte radius, and gcc was able to optimize it. Unfortunately, that jump was also being modified when function graph tracing begins. Since ftrace expected that jump to be 5 bytes, but it was only two, it overwrote code after the jump, causing a crash. This was fixed for x86_64 with commit 8329e818, with the same subject as this commit, but nothing was done for x86_32.

With frame pointers, when a task is interrupted, its stack is no longer completely reliable because the function could have been interrupted before it had a chance to save the previous frame pointer on the stack. So the caller of the interrupted function could get skipped by a stack trace. This is problematic for live patching, which needs to know whether a stack trace of a sleeping task can be relied upon. There's currently no way to detect if a sleeping task was interrupted by a page fault exception or preemption before it went to sleep. Another issue is that when dumping the stack of an interrupted task, the unwinder has no way of knowing where the saved pt_regs registers are, so it can't print them. This solves those issues by encoding the pt_regs pointer in the frame pointer on entry from an interrupt or an exception. This patch also updates the unwinder to be able to decode it, because otherwise the unwinder would be broken by this change. Note that this causes a change in the behavior of the unwinder: each instance of a pt_regs on the stack is now considered a "frame". So callers of unwind_get_return_address() will now get an occasional 'regs->ip' address that would have previously been skipped over.

Thanks to all the recent x86 entry code refactoring, most tasks' kernel stacks start at the same offset right below their saved pt_regs, regardless of which syscall was used to enter the kernel. That creates a nice convention which makes it straightforward to identify the end of the stack, which can be useful for the unwinder to verify the stack is sane. Calling schedule_tail() directly breaks that convention because its an asmlinkage function so its argument has to be pushed on the stack. Add a wrapper which creates a proper "end of stack" frame header before the call.

Right after SYSENTER, we can get a #DB or NMI. On x86_32, there's no IST, so the exception handler is invoked on the temporary SYSENTER stack. Because the SYSENTER stack is very small, we have a fixup to switch off the stack quickly when this happens. The old fixup had several issues: 1. It checked the interrupt frame's CS and EIP. This wasn't obviously correct on Xen or if vm86 mode was in use [1]. 2. In the NMI handler, it did some frightening digging into the stack frame. I'm not convinced this digging was correct. 3. The fixup didn't switch stacks and then switch back. Instead, it synthesized a brand new stack frame that would redirect the IRET back to the SYSENTER code. That frame was highly questionable. For one thing, if NMI nested inside #DB, we would effectively abort the #DB prologue, which was probably safe but was frightening. For another, the code used PUSHFL to write the FLAGS portion of the frame, which was simply bogus -- by the time PUSHFL was called, at least TF, NT, VM, and all of the arithmetic flags were clobbered. Simplify this considerably. Instead of looking at the saved frame to see where we came from, check the hardware ESP register against the SYSENTER stack directly. Malicious user code cannot spoof the kernel ESP register, and by moving the check after SAVE_ALL, we can use normal PER_CPU accesses to find all the relevant addresses. With this patch applied, the improved syscall_nt_32 test finally passes on 32-bit kernels. [1] It isn't obviously correct, but it is nonetheless safe from vm86 shenanigans as far as I can tell. A user can't point EIP at entry_SYSENTER_32 while in vm86 mode because entry_SYSENTER_32, like all kernel addresses, is greater than 0xffff and would thus violate the CS segment limit.

Due to a blatant design error, SYSENTER doesn't clear TF (single-step). As a result, if a user does SYSENTER with TF set, we will single-step through the kernel until something clears TF. There is absolutely nothing we can do to prevent this short of turning off SYSENTER [1]. Simplify the handling considerably with two changes: 1. We already sanitize EFLAGS in SYSENTER to clear NT and AC. We can add TF to that list of flags to sanitize with no overhead whatsoever. 2. Teach do_debug() to ignore single-step traps in the SYSENTER prologue. That's all we need to do. Don't get too excited -- our handling is still buggy on 32-bit kernels. There's nothing wrong with the SYSENTER code itself, but the #DB prologue has a clever fixup for traps on the very first instruction of entry_SYSENTER_32, and the fixup doesn't work quite correctly. The next two patches will fix that. [1] We could probably prevent it by forcing BTF on at all times and making sure we clear TF before any branches in the SYSENTER code. Needless to say, this is a bad idea.

We weren't restoring FLAGS at all on SYSEXIT. Apparently no one cared. With this patch applied, native kernels should always honor task_pt_regs()->flags, which opens the door for some sys_iopl() cleanups. I'll do those as a separate series, though, since getting it right will involve tweaking some paravirt ops. ( The short version is that, before this patch, sys_iopl(), invoked via SYSENTER, wasn't guaranteed to ever transfer the updated regs->flags, so sys_iopl() had to change the hardware flags register as well. ) Reported-by: NBrian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NAndy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: H.

This makes the 32-bit code work just like the 64-bit code. It should speed up syscalls on 32-bit kernels on Skylake by something like 20 cycles (by analogy to the 64-bit compat case). It also cleans up NT just like we do for the 64-bit case.

x86_64 has very clean espfix handling on paravirt: espfix64 is set up in native_iret, so paravirt systems that override iret bypass espfix64 automatically. This is robust and straightforward. x86_32 is messier. espfix is set up before the IRET paravirt patch point, so it can't be directly conditionalized on whether we use native_iret. We also can't easily move it into native_iret without regressing performance due to a bizarre consideration. Specifically, on 64-bit kernels, the logic is: if (regs->ss & 0x4) setup_espfix; On 32-bit kernels, the logic is: if ((regs->ss & 0x4) && (regs->cs & 0x3) == 3 && (regs->flags & X86_EFLAGS_VM) == 0) setup_espfix; The performance of setup_espfix itself is essentially irrelevant, but the comparison happens on every IRET so its performance matters. On x86_64, there's no need for any registers except flags to implement the comparison, so we fold the whole thing into native_iret. On x86_32, we don't do that because we need a free register to implement the comparison efficiently. We therefore do espfix setup before restoring registers on x86_32. This patch gets rid of the explicit paravirt_enabled check by introducing X86_BUG_ESPFIX on 32-bit systems and using an ALTERNATIVE to skip espfix on paravirt systems where iret != native_iret. This is also messy, but it's at least in line with other things we do. This improves espfix performance by removing a branch, but no one cares. More importantly, it removes a paravirt_enabled user, which is good because paravirt_enabled is ill-defined and is going away.
