eb13a1ff27 random: vDSO: avoid call to memset() when zeroing reserved parameter
After a recent change in LLVM [1], builds with the random vDSO
implementation, such as PowerPC and RISC-V, fail when checking the vDSO:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg: dynamic relocations are not supported
  arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg: dynamic relocations are not supported

memset() is now generated when zeroing params->reserved for some builds
because LLVM has an optimization (now run in more instances) that can
recognize at compile time when it is assigning a static value to a
contiguous area of memory and turn that into a call to memset(). Both
clang and GCC assume memset() is always available [2].

Clang has an internal fiddly hook, -max-store-memset, which we can set
to a high number, to disable generating out of line memset calls [3].
Similarly, GCC has -finline-stringops=memset to do the same [4], should
this issue ever hit future version of GCC. While these options wouldn't
make sense for normal kernel code, it is fine for the extremely limited
and intentionally compact vDSO code.

1a4660da31 x86/vdso: Respect COMPAT_32BIT_TIME
If CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME is disabled then the vDSO should not
provide any 32-bit time related functionality. This is the intended
effect of the kconfig option and also the fallback system calls would
also not be implemented.

764e77d868 Locking updates for v7.2:
Futex updates:
 
  - Optimize futex hash bucket access patterns (Peter Zijlstra)
 
  - Large series to address the robust futex unlock race for real,
    by Thomas Gleixner:
 
     "The robust futex unlock mechanism is racy in respect
      to the clearing of the robust_list_head::list_op_pending
      pointer because unlock and clearing the pointer are not
      atomic. The race window is between the unlock and clearing the
      pending op pointer. If the task is forced to exit in this
      window, exit will access a potentially invalid pending op
      pointer when cleaning up the robust list. That happens if
      another task manages to unmap the object containing the lock
      before the cleanup, which results in an UAF. In the worst case
      this UAF can lead to memory corruption when unrelated content
      has been mapped to the same address by the time the access
      happens.
 
      User space can't solve this problem without help from the kernel.

      along:

a2274cc009 x86/vdso: Implement __vdso_futex_robust_try_unlock()
When the FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK mechanism is used for unlocking (PI-)futexes,
then the unlock sequence in userspace looks like this:

  1)	robust_list_set_op_pending(mutex);
  2)	robust_list_remove(mutex);

  	lval = gettid();
  3)	if (atomic_try_cmpxchg(&mutex->lock, lval, 0))
  4)		robust_list_clear_op_pending();
  	else
  5)		sys_futex(OP,...FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK);

That still leaves a minimal race window between #3 and #4 where the mutex
could be acquired by some other task which observes that it is the last
user and:

  1) unmaps the mutex memory
  2) maps a different file, which ends up covering the same address

When then the original task exits before reaching #5 then the kernel robust
list handling observes the pending op entry and tries to fix up user space.

In case that the newly mapped data contains the TID of the exiting thread
at the address of the mutex/futex the kernel will set the owner died bit in
that memory and therefore corrupt unrelated data.

Provide a VDSO function which exposes the critical section window in the
VDSO symbol table. The resulting addresses are updated in the task's mm
when the VDSO is (re)map()'ed.

The core code detects when a task was interrupted within the critical
section and is about to deliver a signal. It then invokes an architecture
specific function which determines whether the pending op pointer has to be
cleared or not. The unlock assembly sequence on 64-bit is:

	mov		%esi,%eax	// Load TID into EAX
       	xor		%ecx,%ecx	// Set ECX to 0
	lock cmpxchg	%ecx,(%rdi)	// Try the TID -> 0 transition
  .Lstart:
	jnz    		.Lend
	movq		%rcx,(%rdx)	// Clear list_op_pending
  .Lend:
	ret

So the decision can be simply based on the ZF state in regs->flags. The
pending op pointer is always in DX independent of the build mode
(32/64-bit) to make the pending op pointer retrieval uniform. The size of
the pointer is stored in the matching criticial section range struct and
the core code retrieves it from there. So the pointer retrieval function
does not have to care. It is bit-size independent:

     return regs->flags & X86_EFLAGS_ZF ? regs->dx : NULL;

There are two entry points to handle the different robust list pending op
pointer size:

	__vdso_futex_robust_list64_try_unlock()
	__vdso_futex_robust_list32_try_unlock()

The 32-bit VDSO provides only __vdso_futex_robust_list32_try_unlock().

The 64-bit VDSO provides always __vdso_futex_robust_list64_try_unlock() and
when COMPAT is enabled also the list32 variant, which is required to
support multi-size robust list pointers used by gaming emulators.

The unlock function is inspired by an idea from Mathieu Desnoyers.

61cfc8e372 x86/vdso: Prepare for robust futex unlock support
There will be a VDSO function to unlock non-contended robust futexes in
user space. The unlock sequence is racy vs. clearing the list_pending_op
pointer in the task's robust list head. To plug this race the kernel needs
to know the critical section window so it can clear the pointer when the
task is interrupted within that race window. The window is determined by
labels in the inline assembly.

Add these symbols to the vdso2c generator and use them in the VDSO VMA code
to update the critical section addresses in mm_struct::futex on (re)map().

The symbols are not exported to user space, but available in the debug
version of the vDSO.

b088fe3501 x86/vdso: Fix incorrect size in munmap() on map_vdso() failure
In map_vdso(), if a failure occurs during the installation of the VVAR
mappings, the error path attempts to clean up previously allocated mappings
using do_munmap(). However, the cleanup for the VVAR mapping is incorrectly
using image->size (the size of the vDSO text) instead of the actual size
allocated for the VVAR area.

Replace the incorrect do_munmap() image->size parameter with the constant
VDSO_NR_PAGES * PAGE_SIZE. Ensure the unmap size exactly matches the size
used during the vdso_install_vvar_mapping() phase to provide a symmetrical
and complete teardown of the memory region.

6ccd0843b9 x86/vdso: Drop pointless #ifdeffery in vvar_vclock_fault()
Sparse complains rightfully when CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK and
CONFIG_HYPERV_TIMER are both not set:

  arch/x86/entry/vdso/vma.c:94:9: warning: switch with no cases

The #ifdeffery is not actually necessary as the compiler can optimize away
the branches already if these config options are not set.

Remove the #ifdeffery to make the code simpler and Sparse happy.

56f85f67b3 x86/vdso: Use 32-bit CHECKFLAGS for compat vDSO
When building the compat vDSO the CHECKFLAGS from the 64-bit kernel
are used. These are combined with the 32-bit CFLAGS. This confuses
sparse, producing false-positive warnings or potentially missing
real issues.

Manually override the CHECKFLAGS for the compat vDSO with the correct
32-bit configuration.

b5ef09a77d x86/entry/vdso32: Work around libgcc unwinder bug
The unwinder code in libgcc has a long standing bug which causes it to
fail to pick up the signal frame CFI flag. This is a generic bug
across all platforms.

It affects the __kernel_sigreturn and __kernel_rt_sigreturn vdso entry
points on i386. The x86-64 kernel doesn't provide a sigreturn stub,
and so there is no kernel-provided code that is affected on x86-64.

libgcc does have a legacy fallback path which happens to work as long
as the bytes immediately before each of the sigreturn functions fall
outside any function. This patch adds a nop before the ALIGN to each
of the sigreturn stubs to ensure that this is, indeed, the case.

The rest of the patch is just a comment which documents the invariants
that need to be maintained for this legacy path to work correctly.

This is a manifest bug: in the current vdso, __kernel_vsyscall is a
multiple of 16 bytes long and thus __kernel_sigreturn does not have
any padding in front of it.

1ca28333e4 x86: keep legacy generated vdso files around in .gitignore file
Commit 93d73005bf ("x86/entry/vdso: Rename vdso_image_* to
vdso*_image") updated the vdso .gitignore file with the new filenames,
which is certainly not incorrect.

However, while adding new generated names is obviously the right thing
to do, you should *not* immediately remove the old filenames from the
.gitignore file when things move around or get renamed, because people
still have those old generated files in their build trees - and they
haven't suddenly become valid files to commit to the repository just
because they were moved or renamed.

While it's mostly just a slight visual nuisance for 'git status' that
can be fixed up with a clean build tree, it can become more serious than
that: see for example commit 04a3389b35 ("Remove stale generated
'genheaders' file").

That commit removed up a stale generated file that had been carelessly
committed by a kernel developer because it wasn't properly ignored any
more and thus showed up as a new file in their tree.

After commit:

  884961618e ("x86/entry/vdso32: Remove open-coded DWARF in sigreturn.S")

building arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/sigreturn.S with LLVM 15 fails with:

  <instantiation>:18:20: error: invalid register name
   .cfi_offset eflags, 64

  arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/sigreturn.S:33:2: note: while in macro instantiation

   ^

Support for eflags as an argument to .cfi_offset was added in the LLVM
16 development cycle:

    67bd3c58c0 [1]

Only add this .cfi_offset directive if it is supported by the assembler
to clear up the error.

a48acbaf99 x86/entry/vdso: Fix filtering of vdso compiler flags
This fixes several typos in the filtering of compiler flags for vdso,
discovered by Chris Mason using an AI script:

1. "-fno-PIE" was written as "fno-PIE".
2. "CC_PLUGINS_FLAGS" was written as "CC_PLUGIN_FLAGS"

To the best of my knowledge, none of these actually had any real
impact on the build at this time but they are genuine bugs which could
break things at any point in the future.

Chris's script also found that "CONFIG_X86_USER_SHADOW_STACK" was
missing "CONFIG_", but it needs a different fix.

7158fc54b2 vdso: Remove struct getcpu_cache
The cache parameter of getcpu() is useless nowadays for various reasons.

  * It is never passed by userspace for either the vDSO or syscalls.
  * It is never used by the kernel.
  * It could not be made to work on the current vDSO architecture.
  * The structure definition is not part of the UAPI headers.
  * vdso_getcpu() is superseded by restartable sequences in any case.

Remove the struct and its header.

As a side-effect this gets rid of an unwanted inclusion of the linux/
header namespace from vDSO code.

36d83c249e x86/entry/vdso32: When using int $0x80, use it directly
When neither sysenter32 nor syscall32 is available (on either
FRED-capable 64-bit hardware or old 32-bit hardware), there is no
reason to do a bunch of stack shuffling in __kernel_vsyscall.
Unfortunately, just overwriting the initial "push" instructions will
mess up the CFI annotations, so suffer the 3-byte NOP if not
applicable.

Similarly, inline the int $0x80 when doing inline system calls in the
vdso instead of calling __kernel_vsyscall.

f49ecf5e11 x86/cpufeature: Replace X86_FEATURE_SYSENTER32 with X86_FEATURE_SYSFAST32
In most cases, the use of "fast 32-bit system call" depends either on
X86_FEATURE_SEP or X86_FEATURE_SYSENTER32 || X86_FEATURE_SYSCALL32.
However, nearly all the logic for both is identical.

Define X86_FEATURE_SYSFAST32 which indicates that *either* SYSENTER32 or
SYSCALL32 should be used, for either 32- or 64-bit kernels.  This
defaults to SYSENTER; use SYSCALL if the SYSCALL32 bit is also set.

As this removes ALL existing uses of X86_FEATURE_SYSENTER32, which is
a kernel-only synthetic feature bit, simply remove it and replace it
with X86_FEATURE_SYSFAST32.

This leaves an unused alternative for a true 32-bit kernel, but that
should really not matter in any way.

The clearing of X86_FEATURE_SYSCALL32 can be removed once the patches
for automatically clearing disabled features has been merged.

8717b02b8c x86/entry/vdso: Include GNU_PROPERTY and GNU_STACK PHDRs
Currently the vdso doesn't include .note.gnu.property or a GNU noexec
stack annotation (the -z noexecstack in the linker script is
ineffective because we specify PHDRs explicitly.)

The motivation is that the dynamic linker currently do not check
these.

However, this is a weak excuse: the vdso*.so are also supposed to be
usable at link libraries, and there is no reason why the dynamic
linker might not want or need to check these in the future, so add
them back in -- it is trivial enough.

Use symbolic constants for the PHDR permission flags.

884961618e x86/entry/vdso32: Remove open-coded DWARF in sigreturn.S
The vdso32 sigreturn.S contains open-coded DWARF bytecode, which
includes a hack for gdb to not try to step back to a previous call
instruction when backtracing from a signal handler.

Neither of those are necessary anymore: the backtracing issue is
handled by ".cfi_entry simple" and ".cfi_signal_frame", both of which
have been supported for a very long time now, which allows the
remaining frame to be built using regular .cfi annotations.

Add a few more register offsets to the signal frame just for good
measure.

Replace the nop on fallthrough of the system call (which should never,
ever happen) with a ud2a trap.

ability of overriding it. The override capability, however, is not

6e150b7101 x86/entry/vdso32: Don't rely on int80_landing_pad for adjusting ip
There is no fundamental reason to use the int80_landing_pad symbol to
adjust ip when moving the vdso. If ip falls within the vdso, and the
vdso is moved, we should change the ip accordingly, regardless of mode
or location within the vdso. This *currently* can only happen on 32
bits, but there isn't any reason not to do so generically.

Note that if this is ever possible from a vdso-internal call, then the
user space stack will also needed to be adjusted (as well as the
shadow stack, if enabled.) Fortunately this is not currently the case.

At the moment, we don't even consider other threads when moving the
vdso. The assumption is that it is only used by process freeze/thaw
for migration, where this is not an issue.

693c819fed x86/entry/vdso: Refactor the vdso build
- Separate out the vdso sources into common, vdso32, and vdso64
  directories.
- Build the 32- and 64-bit vdsos in their respective subdirectories;
  this greatly simplifies the build flags handling.
- Unify the mangling of Makefile flags between the 32- and 64-bit
  vdso code as much as possible; all common rules are put in
  arch/x86/entry/vdso/common/Makefile.include. The remaining
  is very simple for 32 bits; the 64-bit one is only slightly more
  complicated because it contains the x32 generation rule.
- Define __DISABLE_EXPORTS when building the vdso. This need seems to
  have been masked by different ordering compile flags before.
- Change CONFIG_X86_64 to BUILD_VDSO32_64 in vdso32/system_call.S,
  to make it compatible with including fake_32bit_build.h.
- The -fcf-protection= option was "leaking" from the kernel build,
  for reasons that was not clear to me. Furthermore, several
  distributions ship with it set to a default value other than
  "-fcf-protection=none". Make it match the configuration options
  for *user space*.

Note that this patch may seem large, but the vast majority of it is
simply code movement.

592329e5e9 Summary
* Move vm_table members out of kernel/sysctl.c
 
   All vm_table array members have moved to their respective subsystems leading
   to the removal of vm_table from kernel/sysctl.c. This increases modularity by
   placing the ctl_tables closer to where they are actually used and at the same
   time reducing the chances of merge conflicts in kernel/sysctl.c.
 
 * ctl_table range fixes
 
   Replace the proc_handler function that checks variable ranges in
   coredump_sysctls and vdso_table with the one that actually uses the extra{1,2}
   pointers as min/max values. This tightens the range of the values that users
   can pass into the kernel effectively preventing {under,over}flows.
 
 * Misc fixes
 
   Correct grammar errors and typos in test messages. Update sysctl files in
   MAINTAINERS. Constified and removed array size in declaration for
   alignment_tbl
 
 * Testing
 
   - These have all been in linux-next for at least 1 month
   - They have gone through 0-day
   - Ran all these through sysctl selftests in x86_64

317a76a996 Updates for the VDSO infrastructure:
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
 
     The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
     specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance effort
     and causes inconsistencies over and over.
 
     There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts and
     implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
     integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
     duplicated code for managing the mappings.
 
     Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
     infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
     specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
     provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
     functionalities without conflict and interaction.
 
   - Rework the timekeeping data storage
 
     The current implementation is designed for exposing system timekeeping
     accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was designed.
 
     PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
     requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related to
     system timekeeping.
 
     Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
     allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
     both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

24a295e4ef x86/headers: Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in non-UAPI headers
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.

This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with UAPI headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.

This is mostly a mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement), with some manual tweaks in <asm/frame.h>, <asm/hw_irq.h>
and <asm/setup.h> that mentioned this macro in comments with some
missing underscores.

The vclock pages are *after* the non-vclock pages. Currently there are both

accident.  As soon as the number of pages changes it will break however.
This will be the case with the introduction of the generic vDSO data
storage.

Use a macro to keep the calculation understandable and in sync between
the linker script and mapping code.

a33e288147 x86: vdso: move the sysctl to arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32-setup.c
When CONFIG_X86_32 is defined and CONFIG_UML is not defined,
vdso_enabled belongs to arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32-setup.c.
So, move it into its own file.

Before this patch, vdso_enabled was allowed to be set to
a value exceeding 1 on x86_32 architecture. After this patch is
applied, vdso_enabled is not permitted to set the value more than 1.
It does not matter, because according to the function load_vdso32(),
only vdso_enabled is set to 1, VDSO would be enabled. Other values
all mean "disabled". The same limitation could be seen in the
function vdso32_setup().

1751f872cc treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable
Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.

Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - The series "zram: optimal post-processing target selection" from
   Sergey Senozhatsky improves zram's post-processing selection
   algorithm. This leads to improved memory savings.

 - Wei Yang has gone to town on the mapletree code, contributing several
   series which clean up the implementation:
	- "refine mas_mab_cp()"
	- "Reduce the space to be cleared for maple_big_node"
	- "maple_tree: simplify mas_push_node()"
	- "Following cleanup after introduce mas_wr_store_type()"
	- "refine storing null"

 - The series "selftests/mm: hugetlb_fault_after_madv improvements" from
   David Hildenbrand fixes this selftest for s390.

 - The series "introduce pte_offset_map_{ro|rw}_nolock()" from Qi Zheng
   implements some rationaizations and cleanups in the page mapping
   code.

 - The series "mm: optimize shadow entries removal" from Shakeel Butt
   optimizes the file truncation code by speeding up the handling of
   shadow entries.

 - The series "Remove PageKsm()" from Matthew Wilcox completes the
   migration of this flag over to being a folio-based flag.

 - The series "Unify hugetlb into arch_get_unmapped_area functions" from
   Oscar Salvador implements a bunch of consolidations and cleanups in
   the hugetlb code.

 - The series "Do not shatter hugezeropage on wp-fault" from Dev Jain
   takes away the wp-fault time practice of turning a huge zero page
   into small pages. Instead we replace the whole thing with a THP. More
   consistent cleaner and potentiall saves a large number of pagefaults.

 - The series "percpu: Add a test case and fix for clang" from Andy
   Shevchenko enhances and fixes the kernel's built in percpu test code.

 - The series "mm/mremap: Remove extra vma tree walk" from Liam Howlett
   optimizes mremap() by avoiding doing things which we didn't need to
   do.

 - The series "Improve the tmpfs large folio read performance" from
   Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to copy data into userspace at the folio
   size rather than as individual pages. A 20% speedup was observed.

 - The series "mm/damon/vaddr: Fix issue in
   damon_va_evenly_split_region()" fro Zheng Yejian fixes DAMON
   splitting.

 - The series "memcg-v1: fully deprecate charge moving" from Shakeel
   Butt removes the long-deprecated memcgv2 charge moving feature.

 - The series "fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes cleanup up some of the mmap() error handling and
   addresses some potential performance issues.

 - The series "x86/module: use large ROX pages for text allocations"
   from Mike Rapoport teaches x86 to use large pages for
   read-only-execute module text.

 - The series "page allocation tag compression" from Suren Baghdasaryan
   is followon maintenance work for the new page allocation profiling
   feature.

 - The series "page->index removals in mm" from Matthew Wilcox remove
   most references to page->index in mm/. A slow march towards shrinking
   struct page.

 - The series "damon/{self,kunit}tests: minor fixups for DAMON debugfs
   interface tests" from Andrew Paniakin performs maintenance work for
   DAMON's self testing code.

 - The series "mm: zswap swap-out of large folios" from Kanchana Sridhar
   improves zswap's batching of compression and decompression. It is a
   step along the way towards using Intel IAA hardware acceleration for
   this zswap operation.

 - The series "kasan: migrate the last module test to kunit" from
   Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov completes the migration of the KASAN built-in
   tests over to the KUnit framework.

 - The series "implement lightweight guard pages" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   permits userapace to place fault-generating guard pages within a
   single VMA, rather than requiring that multiple VMAs be created for
   this. Improved efficiencies for userspace memory allocators are
   expected.

 - The series "memcg: tracepoint for flushing stats" from JP Kobryn uses
   tracepoints to provide increased visibility into memcg stats flushing
   activity.

 - The series "zram: IDLE flag handling fixes" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   fixes a zram buglet which potentially affected performance.

 - The series "mm: add more kernel parameters to control mTHP" from
   Maíra Canal enhances our ability to control/configuremultisize THP
   from the kernel boot command line.

 - The series "kasan: few improvements on kunit tests" from Sabyrzhan
   Tasbolatov has a couple of fixups for the KASAN KUnit tests.

 - The series "mm/list_lru: Split list_lru lock into per-cgroup scope"
   from Kairui Song optimizes list_lru memory utilization when lockdep
   is enabled.

9bfc4824fd x86/module: prepare module loading for ROX allocations of text
When module text memory will be allocated with ROX permissions, the memory
at the actual address where the module will live will contain invalid
instructions and there will be a writable copy that contains the actual
module code.

Update relocations and alternatives patching to deal with it.
