Commit 0f54b14e ("arm64: cpufeature: Change read_cpuid() to use sysreg's mrs_s macro") changed read_cpuid to require a SYS_ prefix on register names, to allow manual assembly of registers unknown by the toolchain, using tables in sysreg.h. This interacts poorly with commit 42b55734 ("efi/arm64: Check for h/w support before booting a >4 KB granular kernel"), which is curretly queued via the tip tree, and uses read_cpuid without a SYS_ prefix. Due to this, a build of next-20160304 fails if EFI and 64K pages are selected. To avoid this issue when trees are merged, move the required SYS_ prefixing into read_cpuid, and revert all of the updated callsites to pass plain register names. This effectively reverts the bulk of commit 0f54b14e.

We validate pstate using PSR_MODE32_BIT, which is part of the user-provided pstate (and cannot be trusted). Also, we conflate validation of AArch32 and AArch64 pstate values, making the code difficult to reason about. Instead, validate the pstate value based on the associated task. The task may or may not be current (e.g. when using ptrace), so this must be passed explicitly by callers. To avoid circular header dependencies via sched.h, is_compat_task is pulled out of asm/ptrace.h. To make the code possible to reason about, the AArch64 and AArch32 validation is split into separate functions. Software must respect the RES0 policy for SPSR bits, and thus the kernel mirrors the hardware policy (RAZ/WI) for bits as-yet unallocated. When these acquire an architected meaning writes may be permitted (potentially with additional validation).

Commit c031a421 ("arm64: kaslr: randomize the linear region") implements randomization of the linear region, by subtracting a random multiple of PUD_SIZE from memstart_addr. This causes the virtual mapping of system RAM to move upwards in the linear region, and at the same time causes memstart_addr to assume a value which may be negative if the offset of system RAM in the physical space is smaller than its offset relative to PAGE_OFFSET in the virtual space. Since memstart_addr is effectively an offset now, redefine its type as s64 so that expressions involving shifting or division preserve its sign.

The LSE atomics implementation uses runtime patching to patch in calls to out of line non-LSE atomics implementations on cores that lack hardware support for LSE. To avoid paying the overhead cost of a function call even if no call ends up being made, the bl instruction is kept invisible to the compiler, and the out of line implementations preserve all registers, not just the ones that they are required to preserve as per the AAPCS64. However, commit fd045f6c ("arm64: add support for module PLTs") added support for routing branch instructions via veneers if the branch target offset exceeds the range of the ordinary relative branch instructions. Since this deals with jump and call instructions that are exposed to ELF relocations, the PLT code uses x16 to hold the address of the branch target when it performs an indirect branch-to-register, something which is explicitly allowed by the AAPCS64 (and ordinary compiler generated code does not expect register x16 or x17 to retain their values across a bl instruction). Since the lse runtime patched bl instructions don't adhere to the AAPCS64, they don't deal with this clobbering of registers x16 and x17. So add them to the clobber list of the asm() statements that perform the call instructions, and drop x16 and x17 from the list of registers that are callee saved in the out of line non-LSE implementations. In addition, since we have given these functions two scratch registers, they no longer need to stack/unstack temp registers.

The asm-generic fixmap.h depends on each architecture's fixmap.h to pull in the definition of PAGE_KERNEL_RO, if this exists. In the absence of this, FIXMAP_PAGE_RO will not be defined. In mm/early_ioremap.c the definition of early_memremap_ro is predicated on FIXMAP_PAGE_RO being defined. Currently, the arm64 fixmap.h doesn't include pgtable.h for the definition of PAGE_KERNEL_RO, and as a knock-on effect early_memremap_ro is not always defined, leading to link-time failures when it is used. This has been observed with defconfig on next-20160226. Unfortunately, as pgtable.h includes fixmap.h, adding the include introduces a circular dependency, which is just as fragile. Instead, this patch factors out PAGE_KERNEL_RO and other prot definitions into a new pgtable-prot header which can be included by poth pgtable.h and fixmap.h, avoiding the circular dependency, and ensuring that early_memremap_ro is alwyas defined where it is used.

Adds a hook for checking whether a secondary CPU has the features used already by the kernel during early boot, based on the boot CPU and plugs in the check for ASID size. The ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1:ASIDBits determines the size of the mm context id and is used in the early boot to make decisions. The value is picked up from the Boot CPU and cannot be delayed until other CPUs are up. If a secondary CPU has a smaller size than that of the Boot CPU, things will break horribly and the usual SANITY check is not good enough to prevent the system from crashing. So, crash the system with enough information.

A secondary CPU could fail to come online due to insufficient capabilities and could simply die or loop in the kernel. e.g, a CPU with no support for the selected kernel PAGE_SIZE loops in kernel with MMU turned off. or a hotplugged CPU which doesn't have one of the advertised system capability will die during the activation. There is no way to synchronise the status of the failing CPU back to the master. This patch solves the issue by adding a field to the secondary_data which can be updated by the failing CPU. If the secondary CPU fails even before turning the MMU on, it updates the status in a special variable reserved in the head.txt section to make sure that the update can be cache invalidated safely without possible sharing of cache write back granule. Here are the possible states : -1. CPU_MMU_OFF - Initial value set by the master CPU, this value indicates that the CPU could not turn the MMU on, hence the status could not be reliably updated in the secondary_data. Instead, the CPU has updated the status @ __early_cpu_boot_status. 0. CPU_BOOT_SUCCESS - CPU has booted successfully. 1. CPU_KILL_ME - CPU has invoked cpu_ops->die, indicating the master CPU to synchronise by issuing a cpu_ops->cpu_kill. 2. CPU_STUCK_IN_KERNEL - CPU couldn't invoke die(), instead is looping in the kernel. This information could be used by say, kexec to check if it is really safe to do a kexec reboot. 3. CPU_PANIC_KERNEL - CPU detected some serious issues which requires kernel to crash immediately. The secondary CPU cannot call panic() until it has initialised the GIC. This flag can be used to instruct the master to do so.

This adds support for KASLR is implemented, based on entropy provided by the bootloader in the /chosen/kaslr-seed DT property. Depending on the size of the address space (VA_BITS) and the page size, the entropy in the virtual displacement is up to 13 bits (16k/2 levels) and up to 25 bits (all 4 levels), with the sidenote that displacements that result in the kernel image straddling a 1GB/32MB/512MB alignment boundary (for 4KB/16KB/64KB granule kernels, respectively) are not allowed, and will be rounded up to an acceptable value. If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is enabled, the module region is randomized independently from the core kernel. This makes it less likely that the location of core kernel data structures can be determined by an adversary, but causes all function calls from modules into the core kernel to be resolved via entries in the module PLTs. If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is not enabled, the module region is randomized by choosing a page aligned 128 MB region inside the interval [_etext - 128 MB, _stext + 128 MB). This gives between 10 and 14 bits of entropy (depending on page size), independently of the kernel randomization, but still guarantees that modules are within the range of relative branch and jump instructions (with the caveat that, since the module region is shared with other uses of the vmalloc area, modules may need to be loaded further away if the module region is exhausted) Signed-off-by: NArd Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Unfortunately, the current way of using the linker to emit build time constants into the Image header will no longer work once we switch to the use of PIE executables.

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.

Before deferring the assignment of memstart_addr in a subsequent patch, to the moment where all memory has been discovered and possibly clipped based on the size of the linear region and the presence of a mem= command line parameter, we need to ensure that memstart_addr is not used to perform __va translations before it is assigned. One such use is in the generic early DT discovery of the initrd location, which is recorded as a virtual address in the globals initrd_start and initrd_end. So wire up the generic support to declare the initrd addresses, and implement it without __va() translations, and perform the translation after memstart_addr has been assigned.

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.

The __reg_num_xNN symbols that are used to implement the msr_s and mrs_s macros are recorded in the ELF metadata of each object file. This does not affect the size of the final binary, but it does clutter the output of tools like readelf, i.e., $ readelf -a vmlinux |grep -c __reg_num_x 50976 So let's use symbols with the .L prefix, these are strictly local, and don't end up in the object files. $ readelf -a vmlinux |grep -c __reg_num_x 0 Acked-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NArd Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

As of 52e662326e1e ("arm64: prefetch: don't provide spin_lock_prefetch with LSE"), spin_lock_prefetch is patched at runtime when the LSE atomics are in use. This relies on the ARM64_LSE_ATOMIC_INSN macro to drive the alternatives framework, but that macro is only available via asm/lse.h, which isn't explicitly included in processor.h. Consequently, drivers can run into build failures such as: In file included from include/linux/prefetch.h:14:0, from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_txrx.c:27: arch/arm64/include/asm/processor.h: In function 'spin_lock_prefetch': arch/arm64/include/asm/processor.h:183:15: error: expected string literal before 'ARM64_LSE_ATOMIC_INSN' asm volatile(ARM64_LSE_ATOMIC_INSN( This patch add the missing include and gets things building again.
