2020-07-24	arm64/vdso: Add time namespace page	Andrei Vagin	1	-1/+4
	Allocate the time namespace page among VVAR pages. Provide __arch_get_timens_vdso_data() helper for VDSO code to get the code-relative position of VVARs on that special page. If a task belongs to a time namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide VDSO data is replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace handling path. The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent update of the VDSO data is in progress, is not really affecting regular tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again. If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the special VVAR page. The time-namespace page isn't allocated on !CONFIG_TIME_NAMESPACE, but vma is the same size, which simplifies criu/vdso migration between different kernel configs.

	The sigreturn code in the compat vDSO is unused. Remove it. Reviewed-by: Vincenzo Frascino <vincenzo.frascino@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
2019-06-22	arm64: compat: Add vDSO	Vincenzo Frascino	1	-0/+82
	Provide the arm64 compat (AArch32) vDSO in kernel/vdso32 in a similar way to what happens in kernel/vdso. The compat vDSO leverages on an adaptation of the arm architecture code with few changes: - Use of lib/vdso for gettimeofday - Implement a syscall based fallback - Introduce clock_getres() for the compat library - Implement trampolines - Implement elf note To build the compat vDSO a 32 bit compiler is required and needs to be specified via CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT_VDSO. The code is not yet enabled as other prerequisites are missing.
