2020-03-05crypto: x86/curve25519 - support assemblers with no adx supportJason A. Donenfeld1-2/+3
Some older version of GAS do not support the ADX instructions, similarly to how they also don't support AVX and such. This commit adds the same build-time detection mechanisms we use for AVX and others for ADX, and then makes sure that the curve25519 library dispatcher calls the right functions.

2019-08-28x86/build: Add -Wnoaddress-of-packed-member to REALMODE_CFLAGS, to silence ↵Linus Torvalds1-0/+1
GCC9 build warning One of the very few warnings I have in the current build comes from arch/x86/boot/edd.c, where I get the following with a gcc9 build: arch/x86/boot/edd.c: In function ‘query_edd’: arch/x86/boot/edd.c:148:11: warning: taking address of packed member of ‘struct boot_params’ may result in an unaligned pointer value [-Waddress-of-packed-member] 148 | mbrptr = boot_params.edd_mbr_sig_buffer; | ^~~~~~~~~~~ This warning triggers because we throw away all the CFLAGS and then make a new set for REALMODE_CFLAGS, so the -Wno-address-of-packed-member we added in the following commit is not present: 6f303d60534c ("gcc-9: silence 'address-of-packed-member' warning") The simplest solution for now is to adjust the warning for this version of CFLAGS as well, but it would definitely make sense to examine whether REALMODE_CFLAGS could be derived from CFLAGS, so that it picks up changes in the compiler flags environment automatically.

2019-04-05x86/build: Keep local relocations with ld.lldKees Cook1-1/+1
The LLVM linker (ld.lld) defaults to removing local relocations, which causes KASLR boot failures. ld.bfd and ld.gold already handle this correctly. This adds the explicit instruction "--discard-none" during the link phase. There is no change in output for ld.bfd and ld.gold, but ld.lld now produces an image with all the needed relocations.

2019-03-28x86/retpolines: Disable switch jump tables when retpolines are enabledDaniel Borkmann1-2/+6
Commit ce02ef06fcf7 ("x86, retpolines: Raise limit for generating indirect calls from switch-case") raised the limit under retpolines to 20 switch cases where gcc would only then start to emit jump tables, and therefore effectively disabling the emission of slow indirect calls in this area. After this has been brought to attention to gcc folks [0], Martin Liska has then fixed gcc to align with clang by avoiding to generate switch jump tables entirely under retpolines. This is taking effect in gcc starting from stable version 8.4.0. Given kernel supports compilation with older versions of gcc where the fix is not being available or backported anymore, we need to keep the extra KBUILD_CFLAGS around for some time and generally set the -fno-jump-tables to align with what more recent gcc is doing automatically today. More than 20 switch cases are not expected to be fast-path critical, but it would still be good to align with gcc behavior for versions < 8.4.0 in order to have consistency across supported gcc versions. vmlinux size is slightly growing by 0.27% for older gcc. This flag is only set to work around affected gcc, no change for clang.

2019-02-28x86, retpolines: Raise limit for generating indirect calls from switch-caseDaniel Borkmann1-0/+5
From networking side, there are numerous attempts to get rid of indirect calls in fast-path wherever feasible in order to avoid the cost of retpolines, for example, just to name a few: * 283c16a2dfd3 ("indirect call wrappers: helpers to speed-up indirect calls of builtin") * aaa5d90b395a ("net: use indirect call wrappers at GRO network layer") * 028e0a476684 ("net: use indirect call wrappers at GRO transport layer") * 356da6d0cde3 ("dma-mapping: bypass indirect calls for dma-direct") * 09772d92cd5a ("bpf: avoid retpoline for lookup/update/delete calls on maps") * 10870dd89e95 ("netfilter: nf_tables: add direct calls for all builtin expressions") [...] Recent work on XDP from Björn and Magnus additionally found that manually transforming the XDP return code switch statement with more than 5 cases into if-else combination would result in a considerable speedup in XDP layer due to avoidance of indirect calls in CONFIG_RETPOLINE enabled builds. On i40e driver with XDP prog attached, a 20-26% speedup has been observed [0]. Aside from XDP, there are many other places later in the networking stack's critical path with similar switch-case processing. Rather than fixing every XDP-enabled driver and locations in stack by hand, it would be good to instead raise the limit where gcc would emit expensive indirect calls from the switch under retpolines and stick with the default as-is in case of !retpoline configured kernels. This would also have the advantage that for archs where this is not necessary, we let compiler select the underlying target optimization for these constructs and avoid potential slow-downs by if-else hand-rewrite. In case of gcc, this setting is controlled by case-values-threshold which has an architecture global default that selects 4 or 5 (latter if target does not have a case insn that compares the bounds) where some arch back ends like arm64 or s390 override it with their own target hooks, for example, in gcc commit db7a90aa0de5 ("S/390: Disable prediction of indirect branches") the threshold pretty much disables jump tables by limit of 20 under retpoline builds. Comparing gcc's and clang's default code generation on x86-64 under O2 level with retpoline build results in the following outcome for 5 switch cases: * gcc with -mindirect-branch=thunk-inline -mindirect-branch-register: # gdb -batch -ex 'disassemble dispatch' ./c-switch Dump of assembler code for function dispatch: 0x0000000000400be0 <+0>: cmp $0x4,%edi 0x0000000000400be3 <+3>: ja 0x400c35 <dispatch+85> 0x0000000000400be5 <+5>: lea 0x915f8(%rip),%rdx # 0x4921e4 0x0000000000400bec <+12>: mov %edi,%edi 0x0000000000400bee <+14>: movslq (%rdx,%rdi,4),%rax 0x0000000000400bf2 <+18>: add %rdx,%rax 0x0000000000400bf5 <+21>: callq 0x400c01 <dispatch+33> 0x0000000000400bfa <+26>: pause 0x0000000000400bfc <+28>: lfence 0x0000000000400bff <+31>: jmp 0x400bfa <dispatch+26> 0x0000000000400c01 <+33>: mov %rax,(%rsp) 0x0000000000400c05 <+37>: retq 0x0000000000400c06 <+38>: nopw %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 0x0000000000400c10 <+48>: jmpq 0x400c90 <fn_3> 0x0000000000400c15 <+53>: nopl (%rax) 0x0000000000400c18 <+56>: jmpq 0x400c70 <fn_2> 0x0000000000400c1d <+61>: nopl (%rax) 0x0000000000400c20 <+64>: jmpq 0x400c50 <fn_1> 0x0000000000400c25 <+69>: nopl (%rax) 0x0000000000400c28 <+72>: jmpq 0x400c40 <fn_0> 0x0000000000400c2d <+77>: nopl (%rax) 0x0000000000400c30 <+80>: jmpq 0x400cb0 <fn_4> 0x0000000000400c35 <+85>: push %rax 0x0000000000400c36 <+86>: callq 0x40dd80 <abort> End of assembler dump. * clang with -mretpoline emitting search tree: # gdb -batch -ex 'disassemble dispatch' ./c-switch Dump of assembler code for function dispatch: 0x0000000000400b30 <+0>: cmp $0x1,%edi 0x0000000000400b33 <+3>: jle 0x400b44 <dispatch+20> 0x0000000000400b35 <+5>: cmp $0x2,%edi 0x0000000000400b38 <+8>: je 0x400b4d <dispatch+29> 0x0000000000400b3a <+10>: cmp $0x3,%edi 0x0000000000400b3d <+13>: jne 0x400b52 <dispatch+34> 0x0000000000400b3f <+15>: jmpq 0x400c50 <fn_3> 0x0000000000400b44 <+20>: test %edi,%edi 0x0000000000400b46 <+22>: jne 0x400b5c <dispatch+44> 0x0000000000400b48 <+24>: jmpq 0x400c20 <fn_0> 0x0000000000400b4d <+29>: jmpq 0x400c40 <fn_2> 0x0000000000400b52 <+34>: cmp $0x4,%edi 0x0000000000400b55 <+37>: jne 0x400b66 <dispatch+54> 0x0000000000400b57 <+39>: jmpq 0x400c60 <fn_4> 0x0000000000400b5c <+44>: cmp $0x1,%edi 0x0000000000400b5f <+47>: jne 0x400b66 <dispatch+54> 0x0000000000400b61 <+49>: jmpq 0x400c30 <fn_1> 0x0000000000400b66 <+54>: push %rax 0x0000000000400b67 <+55>: callq 0x40dd20 <abort> End of assembler dump.

Raising the cases to a high number (e.g. 100) will still result in similar code generation pattern with clang and gcc as above, in other words clang generally turns off jump table emission by having an extra expansion pass under retpoline build to turn indirectbr instructions from their IR into switch instructions as a built-in -mno-jump-table lowering of a switch (in this case, even if IR input already contained an indirect branch). For gcc, adding --param=case-values-threshold=20 as in similar fashion as s390 in order to raise the limit for x86 retpoline enabled builds results in a small vmlinux size increase of only 0.13% (before=18,027,528 after=18,051,192). For clang this option is ignored due to i) not being needed as mentioned and ii) not having above cmdline parameter. Non-retpoline-enabled builds with gcc continue to use the default case-values-threshold setting, so nothing changes here.

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label". The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined like this: #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL) # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL #endif We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO. Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will match to the real kernel capability.

It is troublesome to add a diagnostic like this to the Makefile parse stage because the top-level Makefile could be parsed with a stale include/config/auto.conf. Once you are hit by the error about non-retpoline compiler, the compilation still breaks even after disabling CONFIG_RETPOLINE.

2018-11-05x86/build: Remove -pipe from KBUILD_CFLAGSNathan Chancellor1-3/+1
Commit 77b0bf55bc67 ("kbuild/Makefile: Prepare for using macros in inline assembly code to work around asm() related GCC inlining bugs") added -Wa,- to KBUILD_CFLAGS, which breaks compiling with Clang (hangs indefinitely at compiling init/main.o). This happens because while Clang accepts -pipe (and has it documented in its list of supported flags), it silently ignores it after this 2010 commit (thanks to Nick Desaulniers for tracking this down), meaning that gas just infinitely waits for stdin and never receives it. https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/commit/c19a12dc3d441bec62eed55e312b76c12d6d9022 Initially, I had suggested just add -Wa,- to KBUILD_CFLAGS when GCC was being used but that was before realizing it is because Clang doesn't do anything with -pipe. H. Peter Anvin suggested checking to see if -pipe gives us any gains out of GCC. Turns out it might actually be hurting: With -pipe: real 3m40.813s real 3m44.449s real 3m39.648s Without -pipe: real 3m38.492s real 3m38.335s real 3m38.975s The issue of -Wa,- being passed along to gas without -pipe being supported should still probably be fixed on the LLVM side (open issue: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39410) but this is not as much of a workaround anymore since it helps both GCC and Clang.

2018-10-04kbuild/Makefile: Prepare for using macros in inline assembly code to work ↵Nadav Amit1-0/+7
around asm() related GCC inlining bugs Using macros in inline assembly allows us to work around bugs in GCC's inlining decisions. Compile macros.S and use it to assemble all C files. Currently only x86 will use it. Background: The inlining pass of GCC doesn't include an assembler, so it's not aware of basic properties of the generated code, such as its size in bytes, or that there are such things as discontiuous blocks of code and data due to the newfangled linker feature called 'sections' ... Instead GCC uses a lazy and fragile heuristic: it does a linear count of certain syntactic and whitespace elements in inlined assembly block source code, such as a count of new-lines and semicolons (!), as a poor substitute for "code size and complexity". Unsurprisingly this heuristic falls over and breaks its neck whith certain common types of kernel code that use inline assembly, such as the frequent practice of putting useful information into alternative sections. As a result of this fresh, 20+ years old GCC bug, GCC's inlining decisions are effectively disabled for inlined functions that make use of such asm() blocks, because GCC thinks those sections of code are "large" - when in reality they are often result in just a very low number of machine instructions. This absolute lack of inlining provess when GCC comes across such asm() blocks both increases generated kernel code size and causes performance overhead, which is particularly noticeable on paravirt kernels, which make frequent use of these inlining facilities in attempt to stay out of the way when running on baremetal hardware. Instead of fixing the compiler we use a workaround: we set an assembly macro and call it from the inlined assembly block. As a result GCC considers the inline assembly block as a single instruction. (Which it often isn't but I digress.) This uglifies and bloats the source code - for example just the refcount related changes have this impact: Makefile | 9 +++++++-- arch/x86/Makefile | 7 +++++++ arch/x86/kernel/macros.S | 7 +++++++ scripts/Kbuild.include | 4 +++- scripts/mod/Makefile | 2 ++ 5 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) Yay readability and maintainability, it's not like assembly code is hard to read and maintain ... We also hope that GCC will eventually get fixed, but we are not holding our breath for that. Yet we are optimistic, it might still happen, any decade now.

Using a well-known variable like LDFLAGS may result in accidental override of the variable.

2018-06-01kbuild: add machine size to CHECKFLAGSLuc Van Oostenryck1-1/+1
By default, sparse assumes a 64bit machine when compiled on x86-64 and 32bit when compiled on anything else. This can of course create all sort of problems for the other archs, like issuing false warnings ('shift too big (32) for type unsigned long'), or worse, failing to emit legitimate warnings. Fix this by adding the -m32/-m64 flag, depending on CONFIG_64BIT, to CHECKFLAGS in the main Makefile (and so for all archs). Also, remove the now unneeded -m32/-m64 in arch specific Makefiles.

Remove the compile time warning when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and the compiler does not have retpoline support. Linus rationale for this is: It's wrong because it will just make people turn off RETPOLINE, and the asm updates - and return stack clearing - that are independent of the compiler are likely the most important parts because they are likely the ones easiest to target. And it's annoying because most people won't be able to do anything about it. The number of people building their own compiler? Very small. So if their distro hasn't got a compiler yet (and pretty much nobody does), the warning is just annoying crap. It is already properly reported as part of the sysfs interface. The compile-time warning only encourages bad things.

Enable the use of -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern in newer GCC, and provide the corresponding thunks. Provide assembler macros for invoking the thunks in the same way that GCC does, from native and inline assembler. This adds X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE and sets it by default on all CPUs. In some circumstances, IBRS microcode features may be used instead, and the retpoline can be disabled. On AMD CPUs if lfence is serialising, the retpoline can be dramatically simplified to a simple "lfence; jmp *\reg". A future patch, after it has been verified that lfence really is serialising in all circumstances, can enable this by setting the X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE_AMD feature bit in addition to X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE. Do not align the retpoline in the altinstr section, because there is no guarantee that it stays aligned when it's copied over the oldinstr during alternative patching.

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2. As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck. KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream. We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider KASan as a suitable replacement). The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2 years, and try again. Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
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.

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.

2017-08-21x86/build: Use cc-option to validate stack alignment parameterMatthias Kaehlcke1-3/+3
With the following commit: 8f91869766c0 ("x86/build: Fix stack alignment for CLang") cc-option is only used to determine the name of the stack alignment option supported by the compiler, but not to verify that the actual parameter <option>=N is valid in combination with the other CFLAGS. This causes problems (as reported by the kbuild robot) with older GCC versions which only support stack alignment on a boundary of 16 bytes or higher. Also use (__)cc_option to add the stack alignment option to CFLAGS to make sure only valid options are added.

2017-08-17x86/build: Fix stack alignment for CLangMatthias Kaehlcke1-6/+8
Commit: d77698df39a5 ("x86/build: Specify stack alignment for clang") intended to use the same stack alignment for clang as with gcc. The two compilers use different options to configure the stack alignment (gcc: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=n, clang: -mstack-alignment=n). The above commit assumes that the clang option uses the same parameter type as gcc, i.e. that the alignment is specified as 2^n. However clang interprets the value of this option literally to use an alignment of n, in consequence the stack remains misaligned. Change the values used with -mstack-alignment to be the actual alignment instead of a power of two. cc-option isn't used here with the typical pattern of KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option ...). The reason is that older gcc versions don't support the -mpreferred-stack-boundary option, since cc-option doesn't verify whether the alternative option is valid it would incorrectly select the clang option -mstack-alignment..

2017-06-25x86/build: Specify stack alignment for clangMatthias Kaehlcke1-5/+21
For gcc stack alignment is configured with -mpreferred-stack-boundary=N, clang has the option -mstack-alignment=N for that purpose. Use the same alignment as with gcc. If the alignment is not specified clang assumes an alignment of 16 bytes, as required by the standard ABI. However as mentioned in d9b0cde91c60 ("x86-64, gcc: Use -mpreferred-stack-boundary=3 if supported") the standard kernel entry on x86-64 leaves the stack on an 8-byte boundary, as a consequence clang will keep the stack misaligned.

2017-06-25x86/build: Use __cc-option for boot code compiler optionsMatthias Kaehlcke1-4/+5
cc-option is used to enable compiler options for the boot code if they are available. The macro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for the check, however these flags aren't used to build the boot code, in consequence cc-option can yield wrong results. For example -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is never set with a 64-bit compiler, since the setting is only valid for 16 and 32-bit binaries. This is also the case for 32-bit kernel builds, because the option -m32 is added to KBUILD_CFLAGS after the assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS. Use __cc-option instead of cc-option for the boot mode options. The macro receives the compiler options as parameter instead of using KBUILD_C*FLAGS, for the boot code we pass REALMODE_CFLAGS. Also use separate statements for the __cc-option checks instead of performing them in the initial assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS since the variable is an input of the macro.

For pre-4.6.0 versions of GCC, which don't have '-mfentry', the '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' option is required for function graph tracing in order to avoid GCC bug 42109. However, GCC ignores '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' when '-Os' is also set. Currently we force a build error to prevent that scenario, but that breaks randconfigs. So change the error to a warning which also disables CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

2017-03-30x86/build: Mostly disable '-maccumulate-outgoing-args'Josh Poimboeuf1-4/+31
The GCC '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' flag is enabled for most configs, mostly because of issues which are no longer relevant. For most configs, and with most recent versions of GCC, it's no longer needed. Clarify which cases need it, and only enable it for those cases. Also produce a compile-time error for the ftrace graph + mcount + '-Os' case, which will otherwise cause runtime failures. The main benefit of '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' is that it prevents an ugly prologue for functions which have aligned stacks. But removing the option also has some benefits: more readable argument saves, smaller text size, and (presumably) slightly improved performance. Here are the object size savings for 32-bit and 64-bit defconfig kernels: text data bss dec hex filename 10006710 3543328 1773568 15323606 e9d1d6 vmlinux.x86-32.before 9706358 3547424 1773568 15027350 e54c96 vmlinux.x86-32.after text data bss dec hex filename 10652105 4537576 843776 16033457 f4a6b1 vmlinux.x86-64.before 10639629 4537576 843776 16020981 f475f5 vmlinux.x86-64.after That comes out to a 3% text size improvement on x86-32 and a 0.1% text size improvement on x86-64.
