We are going to split <linux/sched/debug.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/debug.h> file that just maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

This patch implements HW breakpoint on the 8xx. The 8xx has capability to manage HW breakpoints, which is slightly different than BOOK3S: 1/ The breakpoint match doesn't trigger a DSI exception but a dedicated data breakpoint exception. 2/ The breakpoint happens after the instruction has completed, no need to single step or emulate the instruction, 3/ Matched address is not set in DAR but in BAR, 4/ DABR register doesn't exist, instead we have registers LCTRL1, LCTRL2 and CMPx registers, 5/ The match on one comparator is not on a double word but on a single word. The patch does: 1/ Prepare the dedicated registers in call to __set_dabr(). In order to emulate the double word handling of BOOK3S, comparator E is set to DABR address value and comparator F to address + 4. Then breakpoint 1 is set to match comparator E or F, 2/ Skip the singlestepping stage when compiled for CONFIG_PPC_8xx, 3/ Implement the exception. In that exception, the matched address is taken from SPRN_BAR and manage as if it was from SPRN_DAR. 4/ I/D TLB error exception routines perform a tlbie on bad TLBs. That tlbie triggers the breakpoint exception when performed on the breakpoint address. For this reason, the routine returns if the match is from one of those two tlbie.

Unfortunately the stack protector support we merged recently only works on some toolchains. If the toolchain is built without glibc support everything works fine, but if glibc is built then it leads to a panic at boot. The solution is not rc5 material, so revert the support for now.

It should be ALTIVEC, not ALIVEC. Cyril explains: If a thread performs a transaction with altivec and then gets preempted for whatever reason, this bug may cause the kernel to not re-enable altivec when that thread runs again. This will result in an altivec unavailable fault, when that fault happens inside a user transaction the kernel has no choice but to enable altivec and doom the transaction. The result is that transactions using altivec may get aborted more often than they should. The difficulty in catching this with a selftest is my deliberate use of the word may above. Optimisations to avoid FPU/altivec/VSX faults mean that the kernel will always leave them on for 255 switches. This code prevents the kernel turning it off if it got to the 256th switch (and userspace was transactional).

Currently the MSR TM bit is always set if the hardware is TM capable. This adds extra overhead as it means the TM SPRS (TFHAR, TEXASR and TFAIR) must be swapped for each process regardless of if they use TM. For processes that don't use TM the TM MSR bit can be turned off allowing the kernel to avoid the expensive swap of the TM registers. A TM unavailable exception will occur if a thread does use TM and the kernel will enable MSR_TM and leave it so for some time afterwards.

There is currently an inconsistency as to how the entire CPU register state is saved and restored when a thread uses transactional memory (TM). Using transactional memory results in the CPU having duplicated (almost) all of its register state. This duplication results in a set of registers which can be considered 'live', those being currently modified by the instructions being executed and another set that is frozen at a point in time. On context switch, both sets of state have to be saved and (later) restored. These two states are often called a variety of different things. Common terms for the state which only exists after the CPU has entered a transaction (performed a TBEGIN instruction) in hardware are 'transactional' or 'speculative'. Between a TBEGIN and a TEND or TABORT (or an event that causes the hardware to abort), regardless of the use of TSUSPEND the transactional state can be referred to as the live state. The second state is often to referred to as the 'checkpointed' state and is a duplication of the live state when the TBEGIN instruction is executed. This state is kept in the hardware and will be rolled back to on transaction failure. Currently all the registers stored in pt_regs are ALWAYS the live registers, that is, when a thread has transactional registers their values are stored in pt_regs and the checkpointed state is in ckpt_regs. A strange opposite is true for fp_state/vr_state. When a thread is non transactional fp_state/vr_state holds the live registers. When a thread has initiated a transaction fp_state/vr_state holds the checkpointed state and transact_fp/transact_vr become the structure which holds the live state (at this point it is a transactional state). This method creates confusion as to where the live state is, in some circumstances it requires extra work to determine where to put the live state and prevents the use of common functions designed (probably before TM) to save the live state. With this patch pt_regs, fp_state and vr_state all represent the same thing and the other structures [pending rename] are for checkpointed state.

After a thread is reclaimed from its active or suspended transactional state the checkpointed state exists on CPU, this state (along with the live/transactional state) has been saved in its entirety by the reclaiming process. There exists a sequence of events that would cause the kernel to call one of enable_kernel_fp(), enable_kernel_altivec() or enable_kernel_vsx() after a thread has been reclaimed. These functions save away any user state on the CPU so that the kernel can use the registers. Not only is this saving away unnecessary at this point, it is actually incorrect. It causes a save of the checkpointed state to the live structures within the thread struct thus destroying the true live state for that thread.

Comment from arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:967: If userspace is inside a transaction (whether active or suspended) and FP/VMX/VSX instructions have ever been enabled inside that transaction, then we have to keep them enabled and keep the FP/VMX/VSX state loaded while ever the transaction continues. The reason is that if we didn't, and subsequently got a FP/VMX/VSX unavailable interrupt inside a transaction, we don't know whether it's the same transaction, and thus we don't know which of the checkpointed state and the ransactional state to use. restore_math() restore_fp() and restore_altivec() currently may not restore the registers. It doesn't appear that this is more serious than a performance penalty. If the math registers aren't restored the userspace thread will still be run with the facility disabled. Userspace will not be able to read invalid values. On the first access it will take an facility unavailable exception and the kernel will detected an active transaction, at which point it will abort the transaction. There is the possibility for a pathological case preventing any progress by transactions, however, transactions are never guaranteed to make progress.

We plan to use jump label for cpu_has_feature(). In order to implement this we need to include the linux/jump_label.h in asm/cputable.h. Unfortunately if we do that it leads to an include loop. The root of the problem seems to be that reg.h needs cputable.h (for CPU_FTRs), and then cputable.h via jump_label.h eventually pulls in hw_irq.h which needs reg.h (for MSR_EE).

Userspace can quite legitimately perform an exec() syscall with a suspended transaction. exec() does not return to the old process, rather it load a new one and starts that, the expectation therefore is that the new process starts not in a transaction. Currently exec() is not treated any differently to any other syscall which creates problems. Firstly it could allow a new process to start with a suspended transaction for a binary that no longer exists. This means that the checkpointed state won't be valid and if the suspended transaction were ever to be resumed and subsequently aborted (a possibility which is exceedingly likely as exec()ing will likely doom the transaction) the new process will jump to invalid state. Secondly the incorrect attempt to keep the transactional state while still zeroing state for the new process creates at least two TM Bad Things. The first triggers on the rfid to return to userspace as start_thread() has given the new process a 'clean' MSR but the suspend will still be set in the hardware MSR. The second TM Bad Thing triggers in __switch_to() as the processor is still transactionally suspended but __switch_to() wants to zero the TM sprs for the new process. This is an example of the outcome of calling exec() with a suspended transaction. Note the first 700 is likely the first TM bad thing decsribed earlier only the kernel can't report it as we've loaded userspace registers. c000000000009980 is the rfid in fast_exception_return() Bad kernel stack pointer 3fffcfa1a370 at c000000000009980 Oops: Bad kernel stack pointer, sig: 6 [#1] CPU: 0 PID: 2006 Comm: tm-execed Not tainted NIP: c000000000009980 LR: 0000000000000000 CTR: 0000000000000000 REGS: c00000003ffefd40 TRAP: 0700 Not tainted MSR: 8000000300201031 <SF,ME,IR,DR,LE,TM[SE]> CR: 00000000 XER: 00000000 CFAR: c0000000000098b4 SOFTE: 0 PACATMSCRATCH: b00000010000d033 GPR00: 0000000000000000 00003fffcfa1a370 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR04: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR08: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR12: 00003fff966611c0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 NIP [c000000000009980] fast_exception_return+0xb0/0xb8 LR [0000000000000000] (null) Call Trace: Instruction dump: f84d0278 e9a100d8 7c7b03a6 e84101a0 7c4ff120 e8410170 7c5a03a6 e8010070 e8410080 e8610088 e8810090 e8210078 <4c000024> 48000000 e8610178 88ed023b Kernel BUG at c000000000043e80 [verbose debug info unavailable] Unexpected TM Bad Thing exception at c000000000043e80 (msr 0x201033) Oops: Unrecoverable exception, sig: 6 [#2] CPU: 0 PID: 2006 Comm: tm-execed Tainted: G D task: c0000000fbea6d80 ti: c00000003ffec000 task.ti: c0000000fb7ec000 NIP: c000000000043e80 LR: c000000000015a24 CTR: 0000000000000000 REGS: c00000003ffef7e0 TRAP: 0700 Tainted: G D MSR: 8000000300201033 <SF,ME,IR,DR,RI,LE,TM[SE]> CR: 28002828 XER: 00000000 CFAR: c000000000015a20 SOFTE: 0 PACATMSCRATCH: b00000010000d033 GPR00: 0000000000000000 c00000003ffefa60 c000000000db5500 c0000000fbead000 GPR04: 8000000300001033 2222222222222222 2222222222222222 00000000ff160000 GPR08: 0000000000000000 800000010000d033 c0000000fb7e3ea0 c00000000fe00004 GPR12: 0000000000002200 c00000000fe00000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR16: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR20: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 c0000000fbea7410 00000000ff160000 GPR24: c0000000ffe1f600 c0000000fbea8700 c0000000fbea8700 c0000000fbead000 GPR28: c000000000e20198 c0000000fbea6d80 c0000000fbeab680 c0000000fbea6d80 NIP [c000000000043e80] tm_restore_sprs+0xc/0x1c LR [c000000000015a24] __switch_to+0x1f4/0x420 Call Trace: Instruction dump: 7c800164 4e800020 7c0022a6 f80304a8 7c0222a6 f80304b0 7c0122a6 f80304b8 4e800020 e80304a8 7c0023a6 e80304b0 <7c0223a6> e80304b8 7c0123a6 4e800020 This fixes CVE-2016-5828.

This enables new registers, LMRR and LMSER, that can trigger an EBB in userspace code when a monitored load (via the new ldmx instruction) loads memory from a monitored space. This facility is controlled by a new FSCR bit, LM. This patch disables the FSCR LM control bit on task init and enables that bit when a load monitor facility unavailable exception is taken for using it. On context switch, this bit is then used to determine whether the two relevant registers are saved and restored. This is done lazily for performance reasons.

This fixes a few issues with FSCR init and switching. In commit 152d523e ("powerpc: Create context switch helpers save_sprs() and restore_sprs()") we moved the setting of the FSCR register from inside an CPU_FTR_ARCH_207S section to inside just a CPU_FTR_ARCH_DSCR section. Hence we are setting FSCR on POWER6/7 where the FSCR doesn't exist. This is harmless but we shouldn't do it. Also, we can simplify the FSCR context switch. We don't need to go through the calculation involving dscr_inherit. We can just restore what we saved last time. We also set an initial value in INIT_THREAD, so that pid 1 which is cloned from that gets a sane value. Based on patch by Jack Miller.

In order to support live patching we need to maintain an alternate stack of TOC & LR values. We use the base of the stack for this, and store the "live patch stack pointer" in struct thread_info. Unlike the other fields of thread_info, we can not statically initialise that value, so it must be done at run time. This patch just adds the code to support that, it is not enabled until the next patch which actually adds live patch support.

In save_sprs() in process.c contains the following test: if (cpu_has_feature(cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_ALTIVEC))) t->vrsave = mfspr(SPRN_VRSAVE); CPU feature with the mask 0x1 is CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE so the test is equivilent to: if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_ALTIVEC) && cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE)) On CPUs without support for both (i.e G5) this results in vrsave not being saved between context switches. The vector register save/restore code doesn't use VRSAVE to determine which registers to save/restore, but the value of VRSAVE is used to determine if altivec is being used in several code paths.

This patch adds the ability to be able to save the VSX registers to the thread struct without giving up (disabling the facility) next time the process returns to userspace. This patch builds on a previous optimisation for the FPU and VEC registers in the thread copy path to avoid a possibly pointless reload of VSX state.

This prepares for the decoupling of saving {fpu,altivec,vsx} registers and marking {fpu,altivec,vsx} as being unused by a thread. Currently giveup_{fpu,altivec,vsx}() does both however optimisations to task switching can be made if these two operations are decoupled. save_all() will permit the saving of registers to thread structs and leave threads MSR with bits enabled. This patch introduces no functional change. Signed-off-by: NCyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Currently the FPU, VEC and VSX facilities are lazily loaded. This is not a problem unless a process is using these facilities. Modern versions of GCC are very good at automatically vectorising code, new and modernised workloads make use of floating point and vector facilities, even the kernel makes use of vectorised memcpy. All this combined greatly increases the cost of a syscall since the kernel uses the facilities sometimes even in syscall fast-path making it increasingly common for a thread to take an *_unavailable exception soon after a syscall, not to mention potentially taking all three. The obvious overcompensation to this problem is to simply always load all the facilities on every exit to userspace. Loading up all FPU, VEC and VSX registers every time can be expensive and if a workload does avoid using them, it should not be forced to incur this penalty. An 8bit counter is used to detect if the registers have been used in the past and the registers are always loaded until the value wraps to back to zero. Several versions of the assembly in entry_64.S were tested: 1. Always calling C. 2. Performing a common case check and then calling C. 3. A complex check in asm. After some benchmarking it was determined that avoiding C in the common case is a performance benefit (option 2). The full check in asm (option 3) greatly complicated that codepath for a negligible performance gain and the trade-off was deemed not worth it.

Currently when threads get scheduled off they always giveup the FPU, Altivec (VMX) and Vector (VSX) units if they were using them. When they are scheduled back on a fault is then taken to enable each facility and load registers. As a result explicitly disabling FPU/VMX/VSX has not been necessary. Future changes and optimisations remove this mandatory giveup and fault which could cause calls such as clone() and fork() to copy threads and run them later with FPU/VMX/VSX enabled but no registers loaded. This patch starts the process of having MSR_{FP,VEC,VSX} mean that a threads registers are hot while not having MSR_{FP,VEC,VSX} means that the registers must be loaded. This allows for a smarter return to userspace. Signed-off-by: NCyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Print MSR TM bits in oops messages. This appends them to the end like this: MSR: 8000000502823031 <SF,VEC,VSX,FP,ME,IR,DR,LE,TM[TE]> You get the TM[] only if at least one TM MSR bit is set. Inside the TM[], E means Enabled (bit 32), S means Suspended (bit 33), and T means Transactional (bit 34) If no bits are set, you get no TM[] output.
