9adeb8e72d arm64: Handle el1 synchronous instruction aborts cleanly
Executing from a non-executable area gives an ugly message:

lkdtm: Performing direct entry EXEC_RODATA
lkdtm: attempting ok execution at ffff0000084c0e08
lkdtm: attempting bad execution at ffff000008880700
Bad mode in Synchronous Abort handler detected on CPU2, code 0x8400000e -- IABT (current EL)
CPU: 2 PID: 998 Comm: sh Not tainted 4.7.0-rc2+ #13
Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)
task: ffff800077e35780 ti: ffff800077970000 task.ti: ffff800077970000
PC is at lkdtm_rodata_do_nothing+0x0/0x8
LR is at execute_location+0x74/0x88

The 'IABT (current EL)' indicates the error but it's a bit cryptic
without knowledge of the ARM ARM. There is also no indication of the
specific address which triggered the fault. The increase in kernel
page permissions makes hitting this case more likely as well.
Handling the case in the vectors gives a much more familiar looking
error message:

e19a6ee246 arm64: kernel: Save and restore UAO and addr_limit on exception entry
If we take an exception while at EL1, the exception handler inherits
the original context's addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO values. To be consistent
always reset addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO on (re-)entry to EL1. This
prevents accidental re-use of the original context's addr_limit.

Based on a similar patch for arm from Russell King.

7dd01aef05 arm64: trap userspace "dc cvau" cache operation on errata-affected core
The ARM errata 819472, 826319, 827319 and 824069 for affected
Cortex-A53 cores demand to promote "dc cvau" instructions to
"dc civac". Since we allow userspace to also emit those instructions,
we should make sure that "dc cvau" gets promoted there too.
So lets grasp the nettle here and actually trap every userland cache
maintenance instruction once we detect at least one affected core in
the system.
We then emulate the instruction by executing it on behalf of userland,
promoting "dc cvau" to "dc civac" on the way and injecting access
fault back into userspace.

541ec870ef arm64: kill ESR_LNX_EXEC
Currently we treat ESR_EL1 bit 24 as software-defined for distinguishing
instruction aborts from data aborts, but this bit is architecturally
RES0 for instruction aborts, and could be allocated for an arbitrary
purpose in future. Additionally, we hard-code the value in entry.S
without the mnemonic, making the code difficult to understand.

Instead, remove ESR_LNX_EXEC, and distinguish aborts based on the esr,
which we already pass to the sole use of ESR_LNX_EXEC. A new helper,
is_el0_instruction_abort() is added to make the logic clear. Any
instruction aborts taken from EL1 will already have been handled by
bad_mode, so we need not handle that case in the helper.

For consistency, the existing permission_fault helper is renamed to
is_permission_fault, and the return type is changed to bool. There
should be no functional changes as the return value was a boolean
expression, and the result is only used in another boolean expression.

b660950c60 arm64/kernel: fix incorrect EL0 check in inv_entry macro
The implementation of macro inv_entry refers to its 'el' argument without
the required leading backslash, which results in an undefined symbol
'el' to be passed into the kernel_entry macro rather than the index of
the exception level as intended.

This undefined symbol strangely enough does not result in build failures,
although it is visible in vmlinux:

     $ nm -n vmlinux |head
                      U el
     0000000000000000 A _kernel_flags_le_hi32
     0000000000000000 A _kernel_offset_le_hi32
     0000000000000000 A _kernel_size_le_hi32
     000000000000000a A _kernel_flags_le_lo32
     .....

However, it does result in incorrect code being generated for invalid
exceptions taken from EL0, since the argument check in kernel_entry
assumes EL1 if its argument does not equal '0'.

ee03353bc0 arm64: entry: remove pointless SPSR mode check
In work_pending, we may skip work if the stacked SPSR value represents
anything other than an EL0 context. We then immediately invoke the
kernel_exit 0 macro as part of ret_to_user, assuming a return to EL0.
This is somewhat confusing.

We use work_pending as part of the ret_to_user/ret_fast_syscall state
machine. We only use ret_fast_syscall in the return from an SVC issued
from EL0. We use ret_to_user for return from EL0 exception handlers and
also for return from ret_from_fork in the case the task was not a kernel
thread (i.e. it is a user task).

Thus in all cases the stacked SPSR value must represent an EL0 context,
and the check is redundant. This patch removes it, along with the now
unused no_work_pending label.

d224a69e3d arm64: remove irq_count and do_softirq_own_stack()
sysrq_handle_reboot() re-enables interrupts while on the irq stack. The
irq_stack implementation wrongly assumed this would only ever happen
via the softirq path, allowing it to update irq_count late, in
do_softirq_own_stack().

This means if an irq occurs in sysrq_handle_reboot(), during
emergency_restart() the stack will be corrupted, as irq_count wasn't
updated.

Lose the optimisation, and instead of moving the adding/subtracting of
irq_count into irq_stack_entry/irq_stack_exit, remove it, and compare
sp_el0 (struct thread_info) with sp & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1). This tells us
if we are on a task stack, if so, we can safely switch to the irq stack.
Finally, remove do_softirq_own_stack(), we don't need it anymore.

971c67ce37 arm64: reduce stack use in irq_handler
The code for switching to irq_stack stores three pieces of information on
the stack, fp+lr, as a fake stack frame (that lets us walk back onto the
interrupted tasks stack frame), and the address of the struct pt_regs that
contains the register values from kernel entry. (which dump_backtrace()
will print in any stack trace).

To reduce this, we store fp, and the pointer to the struct pt_regs.
unwind_frame() can recognise this as the irq_stack dummy frame, (as it only
appears at the top of the irq_stack), and use the struct pt_regs values
to find the missing interrupted link-register.

On entry from el0, we save all the registers on the kernel stack, and
restore them before returning. x29 remains unchanged when we call out
to C code, which will store x29 as the frame-pointer on the stack.

Instead, write 0 into x29 after entry from el0, to avoid any risk of
tracing into user space.

7596abf2e5 arm64: irq: fix walking from irq stack to task stack
Running with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y can trigger a BUG with the new IRQ
stack code:

  BUG: spinlock lockup suspected on CPU#1

This is due to the IRQ_STACK_TO_TASK_STACK macro incorrectly retrieving
the task stack pointer stashed at the top of the IRQ stack.

Sayeth James:

| Yup, this is what is happening. Its an off-by-one due to broken
| thinking about how the stack works. My broken thinking was:
|
| >   top ------------
| >       | dummy_lr | <- irq_stack_ptr
| >       ------------
| >       |   x29    |
| >       ------------
| >       |   x19    | <- irq_stack_ptr - 0x10
| >       ------------
| >       |   xzr    |
| >       ------------
|
| But the stack-pointer is decreased before use. So it actually looks
| like this:
|
| >       ------------
| >       |          |  <- irq_stack_ptr
| >   top ------------
| >       | dummy_lr |
| >       ------------
| >       |   x29    | <- irq_stack_ptr - 0x10
| >       ------------
| >       |   x19    |
| >       ------------
| >       |   xzr    | <- irq_stack_ptr - 0x20
| >       ------------
|
| The value being used as the original stack is x29, which in all the
| tests is sp but without the current frames data, hence there are no
| missing frames in the output.
|
| Jungseok Lee picked it up with a 32bit user space because aarch32
| can't use x29, so it remains 0 forever. The fix he posted is correct.

This patch fixes the macro and adds some of this wisdom to a comment,
so that the layout of the IRQ stack is well understood.

8e23dacd12 arm64: Add do_softirq_own_stack() and enable irq_stacks
entry.S is modified to switch to the per_cpu irq_stack during el{0,1}_irq.
irq_count is used to detect recursive interrupts on the irq_stack, it is
updated late by do_softirq_own_stack(), when called on the irq_stack, before
__do_softirq() re-enables interrupts to process softirqs.

do_softirq_own_stack() is added by this patch, but does not yet switch
stack.

This patch adds the dummy stack frame and data needed by the previous
stack tracing patches.

6cdf9c7ca6 arm64: Store struct thread_info in sp_el0
There is need for figuring out how to manage struct thread_info data when
IRQ stack is introduced. struct thread_info information should be copied
to IRQ stack under the current thread_info calculation logic whenever
context switching is invoked. This is too expensive to keep supporting
the approach.

Instead, this patch pays attention to sp_el0 which is an unused scratch
register in EL1 context. sp_el0 utilization not only simplifies the
management, but also prevents text section size from being increased
largely due to static allocated IRQ stack as removing masking operation
using THREAD_SIZE in many places.

412fcb6ceb arm64: entry: always restore x0 from the stack on syscall return
We have a micro-optimisation on the fast syscall return path where we
take care to keep x0 live with the return value from the syscall so that
we can avoid restoring it from the stack. The benefit of doing this is
fairly suspect, since we will be restoring x1 from the stack anyway
(which lives adjacent in the pt_regs structure) and the only additional
cost is saving x0 back to pt_regs after the syscall handler, which could
be seen as a poor man's prefetch.

More importantly, this causes issues with the context tracking code.

The ct_user_enter macro ends up branching into C code, which is free to
use x0 as a scratch register and consequently leads to us returning junk
back to userspace as the syscall return value. Rather than special case
the context-tracking code, this patch removes the questionable
optimisation entirely.

1b42804d27 arm64: entry: handle debug exceptions in el*_inv
Currently we enable debug exceptions before reading ESR_EL1 in both
el0_inv and el1_inv. If a debug exception is taken before we read
ESR_EL1, the value will have been corrupted.

As el*_inv is typically fatal, an intervening debug exception results in
misleading debug information being logged to the console, but is not
otherwise harmful.

As with the other entry paths, we can use the ESR_EL1 value stashed
earlier in the exception entry (in x25 for el0_sync{,_compat}, and x1
for el1_sync), giving us better error reporting in this case.

46b0567c85 arm64: entry: fix context tracking for el0_sp_pc
Commit 6c81fe7925 ("arm64: enable context tracking") did not
update el0_sp_pc to use ct_user_exit, but this appears to have been
unintentional. In commit 6ab6463aeb ("arm64: adjust el0_sync so
that a function can be called") we made x0 available, and in the return
to userspace we call ct_user_enter in the kernel_exit macro.

Due to this, we currently don't correctly inform RCU of the user->kernel
transition, and may erroneously account for time spent in the kernel as
if we were in an extended quiescent state when CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING
is enabled.

As we do record the kernel->user transition, a userspace application
making accesses from an unaligned stack pointer can demonstrate the
imbalance, provoking the following warning:

04d7e098f5 arm64: fix missing syscall trace exit
If a syscall is entered without TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE set, then it goes on
the fast path.  It's then possible to have TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE added in
the middle of the syscall, but ret_fast_syscall doesn't check this flag
again.  This causes a ptrace syscall-exit-stop to be missed.

For instance, from a PTRACE_EVENT_FORK reported during do_fork, the
tracer might resume with PTRACE_SYSCALL, setting TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE.
Now the completion of the fork should have a syscall-exit-stop.

Russell King fixed this on arm by re-checking _TIF_SYSCALL_WORK in the
fast exit path.  Do the same on arm64.

Please note:

  In this way, we can avoid a potential bug where audit_syscall_entry()

63648dd20f arm64: entry: use ldp/stp instead of push/pop when saving/restoring regs
The push/pop instructions can be suboptimal when saving/restoring large
amounts of data to/from the stack, for example on entry/exit from the
kernel. This is because:

  (1) They act on descending addresses (i.e. the newly decremented sp),
      which may defeat some hardware prefetchers

  (2) They introduce an implicit dependency between each instruction, as
      the sp has to be updated in order to resolve the address of the
      next access.

This patch removes the push/pop instructions from our kernel entry/exit
macros in favour of ldp/stp plus offset.

1059c6bf85 arm64: debug: don't re-enable debug exceptions on return from el1_dbg
When returning from a debug exception taken from EL1, we unmask debug
exceptions after handling the exception. This is crucial for debug
exceptions taken from EL0, so that any kernel work on the ret_to_user
path can be debugged by kgdb.

However, when returning back to EL1 the only thing left to do is to
restore the original register state before the exception return. If
single-step has been enabled by the debug exception handler, we will
get stuck in an infinite debug exception loop, since we will take the
step exception as soon as we unmask debug exceptions.

This patch avoids unmasking debug exceptions on the debug exception
return path when the exception was taken from EL1.

2a2830703a arm64: debug: avoid accessing mdscr_el1 on fault paths where possible
Since mdscr_el1 is part of the debug register group, it is highly likely
to be trapped by a hypervisor to prevent virtual machines from debugging
(buggering?) each other. Unfortunately, this absolutely destroys our
performance, since we access the register on many of our low-level
fault handling paths to keep track of the various debug state machines.

This patch removes our dependency on mdscr_el1 in the case that debugging
is not being used. More specifically we:

  - Use TIF_SINGLESTEP to indicate that a task is stepping at EL0 and
    avoid disabling step in the MDSCR when we don't need to.
    MDSCR_EL1.SS handling is moved to kernel_entry, when trapping from
    userspace.

  - Ensure debug exceptions are re-enabled on *all* exception entry
    paths, even the debug exception handling path (where we re-enable
    exceptions after invoking the handler). Since we can now rely on
    MDSCR_EL1.SS being cleared by the entry code, exception handlers can
    usually enable debug immediately before enabling interrupts.

  - Remove all debug exception unmasking from ret_to_user and
    el1_preempt, since we will never get here with debug exceptions
    masked.

This results in a slight change to kernel debug behaviour, where we now
step into interrupt handlers and data aborts from EL1 when debugging the
kernel, which is actually a useful thing to do. A side-effect of this is
that it *does* potentially prevent stepping off {break,watch}points when
there is a high-frequency interrupt source (e.g. a timer), so a debugger
would need to use either breakpoints or manually disable interrupts to
get around this issue.

With this patch applied, guest performance is restored under KVM when
debug register accesses are trapped (and we get a measurable performance
increase on the host on Cortex-A57 too).

005f78cd88 arm64: defer reloading a task's FPSIMD state to userland resume
If a task gets scheduled out and back in again and nothing has touched
its FPSIMD state in the mean time, there is really no reason to reload
it from memory. Similarly, repeated calls to kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() will preserve and restore the FPSIMD state every time.

This patch defers the FPSIMD state restore to the last possible moment,
i.e., right before the task returns to userland. If a task does not return to
userland at all (for any reason), the existing FPSIMD state is preserved
and may be reused by the owning task if it gets scheduled in again on the
same CPU.

This patch adds two more functions to abstract away from straight FPSIMD
register file saves and restores:
- fpsimd_restore_current_state -> ensure current's FPSIMD state is loaded
- fpsimd_flush_task_state -> invalidate live copies of a task's FPSIMD state

ee6214cec7 arm64: support single-step and breakpoint handler hooks
AArch64 Single Steping and Breakpoint debug exceptions will be
used by multiple debug framworks like kprobes & kgdb.

This patch implements the hooks for those frameworks to register
their own handlers for handling breakpoint and single step events.

Reworked the debug exception handler in entry.S: do_dbg to route
software breakpoint (BRK64) exception to do_debug_exception()

6468178767 arm64: let the core code deal with preempt_count
Commit f27dde8dee (sched: Add NEED_RESCHED to the preempt_count)
introduced the use of bit 31 in preempt_count for obscure scheduling
purposes.

This causes interrupts taken from EL0 to hit the (open coded) BUG when
this flag is flipped while handling the interrupt (we compare the
values before and after, and kill the kernel if they are different).

The fix is to stop messing with the preempt count entirely, as this
is already being dealt with in the generic code (irq_enter/irq_exit).

Tested on a dual A53 FPGA running cyclictest.

717321fcb5 arm64: fix access to preempt_count from assembly code
preempt_count is defined as an int. Oddly enough, we access it
as a 64bit value. Things become interesting when running a BE
kernel, and looking at the current CPU number, which is stored
as an int next to preempt_count. Like in a per-cpu interrupt
handler, for example...

Using a 32bit access fixes the issue for good.

d50240a5f6 arm64: mm: permit use of tagged pointers at EL0
TCR.TBI0 can be used to cause hardware address translation to ignore the
top byte of userspace virtual addresses. Whilst not especially useful in
standard C programs, this can be used by JITs to `tag' pointers with
various pieces of metadata.

This patch enables this bit for AArch64 Linux, and adds a new file to
Documentation/arm64/ which describes some potential caveats when using
tagged virtual addresses.

2600e130b3 arm64: Enable interrupts in the EL0 undef handler
do_undefinstr() has to be called with interrupts disabled since it may
read the instruction from the user address space which could lead to a
data abort and subsequent might_sleep() warning in do_page_fault().
