Because there may be some performance overhead of the RFI flush, add
kernel command line options to disable it.

We add a sensibly named 'no_rfi_flush' option, but we also hijack the
x86 option 'nopti'. The RFI flush is not the same as KPTI, but if we
see 'nopti' we can guess that the user is trying to avoid any overhead
of Meltdown mitigations, and it means we don't have to educate every
one about a different command line option.
Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the
L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to
guest.

This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At
this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs
such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale
CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other
mechanisms on those CPUs.

The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally
inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is
speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the
address of a subsequent speculatively executed load.

In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1,
because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is
performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the
vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by
flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for
hypervisor vs guest.

In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at
each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and
patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise
to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D.
If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement
flush in software.

For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and
different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are
prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction
activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at
boot if the hypervisor tells us to.

In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and
Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis
of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc.
Many thanks to all of them.

The recent refactoring of the powerpc page fault handler in commit
c3350602 ("powerpc/mm: Make bad_area* helper functions") caused
access to protected memory regions to indicate SEGV_MAPERR instead of
the traditional SEGV_ACCERR in the si_code field of a user-space
signal handler. This can confuse debug libraries that temporarily
change the protection of memory regions, and expect to use SEGV_ACCERR
as an indication to restore access to a region.

As xisr is 0, pending_pri must be set to 0xff.

When restoring a pending interrupt, we are setting the Q bit to force
a retrigger in xive_finish_unmask(). But we also need to force an EOI
in this case to reach the same initial state : P=1, Q=0.

This can be done by not setting 'old_p' for pending interrupts which
will inform xive_finish_unmask() that an EOI needs to be sent.

When we oops or otherwise call show_regs() we print the address of the
regs structure. Being able to see the address is fairly useful,
firstly to verify that the regs pointer is not completely bogus, and
secondly it allows you to dump the regs and surrounding memory with a
debugger if you have one.

In the normal case the regs will be located somewhere on the stack, so
printing their location discloses no further information than printing
the stack pointer does already.

So switch to %px and print the actual address, not the hashed value.

imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free() is the common function for all
IMC (In-memory Collection counters) domains to unregister cpuhotplug
callback and free memory. Since kfree of memory allocated for
nest-imc (per_nest_pmu_arr) is in the common code, all
domains (core/nest/thread) can do the kfree in the failure case.

This could potentially create a call trace as shown below, where
core(/thread/nest) imc pmu initialization fails and in the failure
path imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free() free the memory(per_nest_pmu_arr),
which is allocated by successfully registered nest units.

The call trace is generated in a scenario where core-imc
initialization is made to fail and a cpuhotplug is performed in a p9
system. During cpuhotplug ppc_nest_imc_cpu_offline() tries to access
per_nest_pmu_arr, which is already freed by core-imc.

In xmon we want to see the actual pointer values, because xmon is a

We justify doing this in xmon because 1) xmon is a kernel crash
debugger, it's only accessible via the console 2) xmon doesn't print

kexec can leave MMU registers set when booting into a new kernel,
the PIDR (Process Identification Register) in particular. The boot
sequence does not zero PIDR, so it only gets set when CPUs first
switch to a userspace processes (until then it's running a kernel
thread with effective PID = 0).

This leaves a window where a process table entry and page tables are
set up due to user processes running on other CPUs, that happen to
match with a stale PID. The CPU with that PID may cause speculative
accesses that address quadrant 0 (aka userspace addresses), which will
result in cached translations and PWC (Page Walk Cache) for that
process, on a CPU which is not in the mm_cpumask and so they will not
be invalidated properly.

The most common result is the kernel hanging in infinite page fault
loops soon after kexec (usually in schedule_tail, which is usually the
first non-speculative quadrant 0 access to a new PID) due to a stale
PWC. However being a stale translation error, it could result in
anything up to security and data corruption problems.

Fix this by zeroing out PIDR at boot and kexec.

Unfortunately, it breaks things worse in other circumstances. In

Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.15-rc2_cleanups' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/linux

Pull RISC-V cleanups and ABI fixes from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains a handful of small cleanups that are a result of
  feedback that didn't make it into our original patch set, either
  because the feedback hadn't been given yet, I missed the original
  emails, or we weren't ready to submit the changes yet.

  I've been maintaining the various cleanup patch sets I have as their
  own branches, which I then merged together and signed. Each merge
  commit has a short summary of the changes, and each branch is based on
  your latest tag (4.15-rc1, in this case). If this isn't the right way
  to do this then feel free to suggest something else, but it seems sane
  to me.

  Here's a short summary of the changes, roughly in order of how
  interesting they are.

   - libgcc.h has been moved from include/lib, where it's the only
     member, to include/linux. This is meant to avoid tab completion
     conflicts.

   - VDSO entries for clock_get/gettimeofday/getcpu have been added.
     These are simple syscalls now, but we want to let glibc use them
     from the start so we can make them faster later.

   - A VDSO entry for instruction cache flushing has been added so
     userspace can flush the instruction cache.

   - The VDSO symbol versions for __vdso_cmpxchg{32,64} have been
     removed, as those VDSO entries don't actually exist.

   - __io_writes has been corrected to respect the given type.

   - A new READ_ONCE in arch_spin_is_locked().

   - __test_and_op_bit_ord() is now actually ordered.

   - Various small fixes throughout the tree to enable allmodconfig to
     build cleanly.

   - Removal of some dead code in our atomic support headers.

   - Improvements to various comments in our atomic support headers"

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "The critical one here is a fix for fpsimd register corruption across
  signals which was introduced by the SVE support code (the register
  files overlap), but the others are worth having as well.

  Summary:

   - Fix FP register corruption when SVE is not available or in use

   - Fix out-of-tree module build failure when CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS=y

   - Missing 'const' generating errors with LTO builds

   - Remove unsupported events from Cortex-A73 PMU description

   - Removal of stale and incorrect comments"

Olaf said: Here's a short series of patches that produces a working
allmodconfig. Would be nice to see them go in so we can add build
coverage.

I've dropped patches 8 and 10 from the original set:

* [PATCH 08/10] (RISC-V: Set __ARCH_WANT_RENAMEAT to pick up generic
  version) has a better fix that I've sent out for review, we don't want
  renameat.
* [PATCH 10/10] (input: joystick: riscv has get_cycles) has already been
  taken into Dmitry Torokhov's tree.

This merge contains the user-visible, ABI-breaking changes that we want
to make sure we have in Linux before our first release.   Highlights
include:

* VDSO entries for clock_get/gettimeofday/getcpu have been added.  These
  are simple syscalls now, but we want to let glibc use them from the
  start so we can make them faster later.
* A VDSO entry for instruction cache flushing has been added so
  userspace can flush the instruction cache.
* The VDSO symbol versions for __vdso_cmpxchg{32,64} have been removed,
  as those VDSO entries don't actually exist.

Conflicts:
        arch/riscv/include/asm/tlbflush.h

This patch set is the result of some feedback that filtered through
after our original patch set was reviewed, some of which was the result
of me missing some email.  It contains:

* A new READ_ONCE in arch_spin_is_locked()
* __test_and_op_bit_ord() is now actually ordered
* Improvements to various comments
* Removal of some dead code

Whoops -- I must have just been being an idiot again.  Thanks to Segher
for finding the bug :).

Introducing a new include/lib directory just for this file totally
messes up tab completion for include/linux, which is highly annoying.

Move it to include/linux where we have headers for all kinds of other
lib/ code as well.
