60253f100c x86/boot: Remove x86_32 PIC using %ebx workaround
The currently supported minimum gcc version is 5.1. Before that, the
PIC register, when generating Position Independent Code, was considered
"fixed" in the sense that it wasn't in the set of registers available to
the compiler's register allocator. Which, on x86-32, is already a very
small set.

What is more, the register allocator was unable to satisfy extended asm
"=b" constraints. (Yes, PIC code uses %ebx on 32-bit as the base reg.)

With gcc 5.1:

"Reuse of the PIC hard register, instead of using a fixed register,
was implemented on x86/x86-64 targets. This improves generated PIC
code performance as more hard registers can be used. Shared libraries
can significantly benefit from this optimization. Currently it is
switched on only for x86/x86-64 targets. As RA infrastructure is already
implemented for PIC register reuse, other targets might follow this in
the future."

  (from: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html)

which basically means that the register allocator has a higher degree
of freedom when handling %ebx, including reloading it with the correct
value before a PIC access.

Furthermore:

  arch/x86/Makefile:
          # Never want PIC in a 32-bit kernel, prevent breakage with GCC built
          # with nonstandard options
          KBUILD_CFLAGS += -fno-pic

  $ gcc -Wp,-MMD,arch/x86/boot/.cpuflags.o.d ... -fno-pic ... -D__KBUILD_MODNAME=kmod_cpuflags -c -o arch/x86/boot/cpuflags.o arch/x86/boot/cpuflags.c

so the 32-bit workaround in cpuid_count() is fixing exactly nothing
because 32-bit configs don't even allow PIC builds.

As to 64-bit builds: they're done using -mcmodel=kernel which produces
RIP-relative addressing for PIC builds and thus does not apply here
either.

So get rid of the thing and make cpuid_count() nice and simple.

There should be no functional changes resulting from this.

4b05f81504 x86/tdx: Detect TDX at early kernel decompression time
The early decompression code does port I/O for its console output. But,
handling the decompression-time port I/O demands a different approach
from normal runtime because the IDT required to support #VE based port
I/O emulation is not yet set up. Paravirtualizing I/O calls during
the decompression step is acceptable because the decompression code
doesn't have a lot of call sites to IO instruction.

To support port I/O in decompression code, TDX must be detected before
the decompression code might do port I/O. Detect whether the kernel runs
in a TDX guest.

Add an early_is_tdx_guest() interface to query the cached TDX guest
status in the decompression code.

TDX is detected with CPUID. Make cpuid_count() accessible outside
boot/cpuflags.c.

TDX detection in the main kernel is very similar. Move common bits
into <asm/shared/tdx.h>.

The actual port I/O paravirtualization will come later in the series.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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.

3677d4c6a2 x86/boot: Detect 5-level paging support
In this initial implementation we force-require 5-level paging support
from the hardware, when compiled with CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y. (The kernel
will panic during boot on CPUs that don't support 5-level paging.)

We will implement boot-time switch between 4- and 5-level paging later.

e4a84be6f0 x86/mm: Disallow running with 32-bit PTEs to work around erratum
The Intel(R) Xeon Phi(TM) Processor x200 Family (codename: Knights
Landing) has an erratum where a processor thread setting the Accessed
or Dirty bits may not do so atomically against its checks for the
Present bit.  This may cause a thread (which is about to page fault)
to set A and/or D, even though the Present bit had already been
atomically cleared.

These bits are truly "stray".  In the case of the Dirty bit, the
thread associated with the stray set was *not* allowed to write to
the page.  This means that we do not have to launder the bit(s); we
can simply ignore them.

If the PTE is used for storing a swap index or a NUMA migration index,
the A bit could be misinterpreted as part of the swap type.  The stray
bits being set cause a software-cleared PTE to be interpreted as a
swap entry.  In some cases (like when the swap index ends up being
for a non-existent swapfile), the kernel detects the stray value
and WARN()s about it, but there is no guarantee that the kernel can
always detect it.

When we have 64-bit PTEs (64-bit mode or 32-bit PAE), we were able
to move the swap PTE format around to avoid these troublesome bits.
But, 32-bit non-PAE is tight on bits.  So, disallow it from running
on this hardware.  I can't imagine anyone wanting to run 32-bit
non-highmem kernels on this hardware, but disallowing them from
running entirely is surely the safe thing to do.

5fbbc25a99 x86, boot: Fix word-size assumptions in has_eflag() inline asm
Commit dd78b97367 ("x86, boot: Move CPU
flags out of cpucheck") introduced ambiguous inline asm in the
has_eflag() function. In 16-bit mode want the instruction to be
'pushfl', but we just say 'pushf' and hope the compiler does what we
wanted.

When building with 'clang -m16', it won't, because clang doesn't use
the horrid '.code16gcc' hack that even 'gcc -m16' uses internally.

Say what we mean and don't make the compiler make assumptions.

[ hpa: ideally we would be able to use the gcc %zN construct here, but
  that is broken for 64-bit integers in gcc < 4.5.

  The code with plain "pushf/popf" is fine for 32- or 64-bit mode, but
  not for 16-bit mode; in 16-bit mode those are 16-bit instructions in
  .code16 mode, and 32-bit instructions in .code16gcc mode. ]

6e6a4932b0 x86, boot: Rename get_flags() and check_flags() to *_cpuflags()
When a function is used in more than one file it may not be possible
to immediately tell from context what the intended meaning is.  As
such, it is more important that the naming be self-evident.  Thus,
change get_flags() to get_cpuflags().

For consistency, change check_flags() to check_cpuflags() even though
it is only used in cpucheck.c.

Refactor the CPU flags handling out of the cpucheck routines so that
they can be reused by the future ASLR routines (in order to detect CPU
features like RDRAND and RDTSC).

This reworks has_eflag() and has_fpu() to be used on both 32-bit and
64-bit, and refactors the calls to cpuid to make them PIC-safe on 32-bit.
