Pull x86 alternative instruction updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Small RDTSCP opimization, enabled by the newly added ALTERNATIVE_3(),
and other small improvements"
* 'x86-alternatives-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/TSC: Use RDTSCP
x86/alternatives: Add an ALTERNATIVE_3() macro
x86/alternatives: Print containing function

Prohibit probing on the functions called before kprobe_int3_handler()
in do_int3(). More specifically, ftrace_int3_handler(),
poke_int3_handler(), and ist_enter(). And since rcu_nmi_enter() is
called by ist_enter(), it also should be marked as NOKPROBE_SYMBOL.
Since those are handled before kprobe_int3_handler(), probing those
functions can cause a breakpoint recursion and crash the kernel.

Instead of using six globally visible paravirt ops structures combine
them in a single structure, keeping the original structures as
sub-structures.
This avoids the need to assemble struct paravirt_patch_template at
runtime on the stack each time apply_paravirt() is being called (i.e.
when loading a module).

It supposed to be safe to modify static branches after jump_label_init().
But, because static key modifying code eventually calls text_poke() it can
end up accessing a struct page which has not been initialized yet.
Here is how to quickly reproduce the problem. Insert code like this
into init/main.c:
| +static DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(__test);
| asmlinkage __visible void __init start_kernel(void)
| {
| char *command_line;
|@@ -587,6 +609,10 @@ asmlinkage __visible void __init start_kernel(void)
| vfs_caches_init_early();
| sort_main_extable();
| trap_init();
|+ {
|+ static_branch_enable(&__test);
|+ WARN_ON(!static_branch_likely(&__test));
|+ }
| mm_init();
The following warnings show-up:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:701 text_poke+0x20d/0x230
RIP: 0010:text_poke+0x20d/0x230
Call Trace:
? text_poke_bp+0x50/0xda
? arch_jump_label_transform+0x89/0xe0

? start_kernel+0x23e/0x4c8
? secondary_startup_64+0xa5/0xb0
---[ end trace abdc99c031b8a90a ]---
If the code above is moved after mm_init(), no warning is shown, as struct
pages are initialized during handover from memblock.
Use text_poke_early() in static branching until early boot IRQs are enabled
and from there switch to text_poke. Also, ensure text_poke() is never
invoked when unitialized memory access may happen by using adding a
!after_bootmem assertion.

The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the
original pv indirect calls in place.
That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify
paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines.
As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much
other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel
vulnerable to Spectre v2. It was probably a debug option from the early
paravirt days. So just remove it.

Pull x86 pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains:
- a PTI bugfix to avoid setting reserved CR3 bits when PCID is
disabled. This seems to cause issues on a virtual machine at least
and is incorrect according to the AMD manual.
- a PTI bugfix which disables the perf BTS facility if PTI is
enabled. The BTS AUX buffer is not globally visible and causes the
CPU to fault when the mapping disappears on switching CR3 to user
space. A full fix which restores BTS on PTI is non trivial and will
be worked on.
- PTI bugfixes for EFI and trusted boot which make sure that the user
space visible page table entries have the NX bit cleared
- removal of dead code in the PTI pagetable setup functions
- add PTI documentation
- add a selftest for vsyscall to verify that the kernel actually
implements what it advertises.
- a sysfs interface to expose vulnerability and mitigation
information so there is a coherent way for users to retrieve the
status.
- the initial spectre_v2 mitigations, aka retpoline:
+ The necessary ASM thunk and compiler support
+ The ASM variants of retpoline and the conversion of affected ASM
code
+ Make LFENCE serializing on AMD so it can be used as speculation
trap
+ The RSB fill after vmexit
- initial objtool support for retpoline
As I said in the status mail this is the most of the set of patches
which should go into 4.15 except two straight forward patches still on
hold:
- the retpoline add on of LFENCE which waits for ACKs
- the RSB fill after context switch
Both should be ready to go early next week and with that we'll have
covered the major holes of spectre_v2 and go back to normality"

The alternatives code checks only the first byte whether it is a NOP, but
with NOPs in front of the payload and having actual instructions after it
breaks the "optimized' test.

We use alternatives_text_reserved() to check if the address is in
the fixed pieces of alternative reserved, but the problem is that
we don't hold the smp_alt mutex when call this function. So the list
traversal may encounter a deleted list_head if another path is doing
alternatives_smp_module_del().
One solution is that we can hold smp_alt mutex before call this
function, but the difficult point is that the callers of this
functions, arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(),
are called inside the text_mutex. So we must hold smp_alt mutex
before we go into these arch dependent code. But we can't now,
the smp_alt mutex is the arch dependent part, only x86 has it.
Maybe we can export another arch dependent callback to solve this.
But there is a simpler way to handle this problem. We can reuse the
text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules instead of using another mutex.
And all the arch dependent checks of kprobes are inside the text_mutex,
so it's safe now.

In the current form of the code, if a->replacementlen is 0, the reference
to *insnbuf for comparison touches potentially garbage memory. While it
doesn't affect the execution flow due to the subsequent a->replacementlen
comparison, it is (rightly) detected as use of uninitialized memory by a
runtime instrumentation currently under my development, and could be
detected as such by other tools in the future, too (e.g. KMSAN).
Fix the "false-positive" by reordering the conditions to first check the
replacement instruction length before referencing specific opcode bytes.

We use sync_core() in the alternatives code to stop speculative
execution of prefetched instructions because we are potentially changing
them and don't want to execute stale bytes.
What it does on most machines is call CPUID which is a serializing
instruction. And that's expensive.
However, the instruction cache is serialized when we're on the local CPU
and are changing the data through the same virtual address. So then, we
don't need the serializing CPUID but a simple control flow change. Last
being accomplished with a CALL/RET which the noinline causes.

optimize_nops() is buggy in two aspects:

- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)
- Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/platform changes:
- Intel Atom SoC updates
... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
shortlog and the Git log for details"

in xsave_state()
We'd like to use xsave_state() earlier, but its SYSTEM_BOOTING check
is too imprecise.
The real condition that xsave_state() would like to check is whether
alternative XSAVE instructions were patched into the kernel image
already.
Add such a (read-mostly) debug flag and use it in xsave_state().

actually even older families are better with the single-insn
NOPs so switch to them for the alternatives.

Take a look at the first instruction byte before optimizing the NOP -
there might be something else there already, like the ALTERNATIVE_2()
in rdtsc_barrier() which NOPs out on AMD even though we just
patched in an MFENCE.
This happens because the alternatives sees X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC,
AMD CPUs set it, we patch in the MFENCE and right afterwards it sees
X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC which AMD CPUs don't set and we blindly
optimize the NOP.
Checking whether at least the first byte is 0x90 prevents that.

Quentin caught a corner case with the generation of instruction
padding in the ALTERNATIVE_2 macro: if len(orig_insn) <
len(alt1) < len(alt2), then not enough padding gets added and
that is not good(tm) as we could overwrite the beginning of the
next instruction.
Luckily, at the time of this writing, we don't have
ALTERNATIVE_2() invocations which have that problem and even if
we did, a simple fix would be to prepend the instructions with
enough prefixes so that that corner case doesn't happen.
However, best it would be if we fixed it properly. See below for
a simple, abstracted example of what we're doing.
So what we ended up doing is, we compute the
max(len(alt1), len(alt2)) - len(orig_insn)
and feed that value to the .skip gas directive. The max() cannot
have conditionals due to gas limitations, thus the fancy integer
math.
With this patch, all ALTERNATIVE_2 sites get padded correctly;
generating obscure test cases pass too:
#define alt_max_short(a, b) ((a) ^ (((a) ^ (b)) & -(-((a) < (b)))))
#define gen_skip(orig, alt1, alt2, marker) \
.skip -((alt_max_short(alt1, alt2) - (orig)) > 0) * \
(alt_max_short(alt1, alt2) - (orig)),marker
.pushsection .text, "ax"
.globl main
main:
gen_skip(1, 2, 4, 0x09)
gen_skip(4, 1, 2, 0x10)
...
.popsection
Thanks to Quentin for catching it and double-checking the fix!

Alternatives allow now for an empty old instruction. In this case we go
and pad the space with NOPs at assembly time. However, there are the
optimal, longer NOPs which should be used. Do that at patching time by
adding alt_instr.padlen-sized NOPs at the old instruction address.

Up until now we had to pay attention to relative JMPs in alternatives
about how their relative offset gets computed so that the jump target
is still correct. Or, as it is the case for near CALLs (opcode e8), we
still have to go and readjust the offset at patching time.
What is more, the static_cpu_has_safe() facility had to forcefully
generate 5-byte JMPs since we couldn't rely on the compiler to generate
properly sized ones so we had to force the longest ones. Worse than
that, sometimes it would generate a replacement JMP which is longer than
the original one, thus overwriting the beginning of the next instruction
at patching time.
So, in order to alleviate all that and make using JMPs more
straight-forward we go and pad the original instruction in an
alternative block with NOPs at build time, should the replacement(s) be
longer. This way, alternatives users shouldn't pay special attention
so that original and replacement instruction sizes are fine but the
assembler would simply add padding where needed and not do anything
otherwise.
As a second aspect, we go and recompute JMPs at patching time so that we
can try to make 5-byte JMPs into two-byte ones if possible. If not, we
still have to recompute the offsets as the replacement JMP gets put far
away in the .altinstr_replacement section leading to a wrong offset if
copied verbatim.
For example, on a locally generated kernel image
old insn VA: 0xffffffff810014bd, CPU feat: X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS, size: 2
__switch_to:
ffffffff810014bd: eb 21 jmp ffffffff810014e0
repl insn: size: 5
ffffffff81d0b23c: e9 b1 62 2f ff jmpq ffffffff810014f2
gets corrected to a 2-byte JMP:
apply_alternatives: feat: 3*32+21, old: (ffffffff810014bd, len: 2), repl: (ffffffff81d0b23c, len: 5)
alt_insn: e9 b1 62 2f ff
recompute_jumps: next_rip: ffffffff81d0b241, tgt_rip: ffffffff810014f2, new_displ: 0x00000033, ret len: 2
converted to: eb 33 90 90 90
and a 5-byte JMP:
old insn VA: 0xffffffff81001516, CPU feat: X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS, size: 2
__switch_to:
ffffffff81001516: eb 30 jmp ffffffff81001548
repl insn: size: 5
ffffffff81d0b241: e9 10 63 2f ff jmpq ffffffff81001556
gets shortened into a two-byte one:
apply_alternatives: feat: 3*32+21, old: (ffffffff81001516, len: 2), repl: (ffffffff81d0b241, len: 5)
alt_insn: e9 10 63 2f ff
recompute_jumps: next_rip: ffffffff81d0b246, tgt_rip: ffffffff81001556, new_displ: 0x0000003e, ret len: 2
converted to: eb 3e 90 90 90
... and so on.
This leads to a net win of around
40ish replacements * 3 bytes savings =~ 120 bytes of I$
on an AMD guest which means some savings of precious instruction cache
bandwidth. The padding to the shorter 2-byte JMPs are single-byte NOPs
which on smart microarchitectures means discarding NOPs at decode time
and thus freeing up execution bandwidth.

Up until now we have always paid attention to make sure the length of
the new instruction replacing the old one is at least less or equal to
the length of the old instruction. If the new instruction is longer, at
the time it replaces the old instruction it will overwrite the beginning
of the next instruction in the kernel image and cause your pants to
catch fire.
So instead of having to pay attention, teach the alternatives framework
to pad shorter old instructions with NOPs at buildtime - but only in the
case when
len(old instruction(s)) < len(new instruction(s))
and add nothing in the >= case. (In that case we do add_nops() when
patching).
This way the alternatives user shouldn't have to care about instruction
sizes and simply use the macros.
Add asm ALTERNATIVE* flavor macros too, while at it.
Also, we need to save the pad length in a separate struct alt_instr
member for NOP optimization and the way to do that reliably is to carry
the pad length instead of trying to detect whether we're looking at
single-byte NOPs or at pathological instruction offsets like e9 90 90 90
90, for example, which is a valid instruction.
Thanks to Michael Matz for the great help with toolchain questions.

In fd4363fff3d96 ("x86: Introduce int3 (breakpoint)-based
instruction patching"), the mechanism that was introduced for
notifying alternatives code from int3 exception handler that and
exception occured was die_notifier.
This is however problematic, as early code might be using jump
labels even before the notifier registration has been performed,
which will then lead to an oops due to unhandled exception. One
of such occurences has been encountered by Fengguang:

Fix this by directly calling poke_int3_handler() from the int3
exception handler (analogically to what ftrace has been doing
already), instead of relying on notifier, registration of which
might not have yet been finalized by the time of the first trap.

Since introducing the text_poke_bp() for all text_poke_smp*()
callers, text_poke_smp*() are now unused. This patch basically
reverts:
3d55cc8a058e ("x86: Add text_poke_smp for SMP cross modifying code")
7deb18dcf047 ("x86: Introduce text_poke_smp_batch() for batch-code modifying")
and related commits.
This patch also fixes a Kconfig dependency issue on STOP_MACHINE
in the case of CONFIG_SMP && !CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD.

Introduce a method for run-time instruction patching on a live SMP kernel
based on int3 breakpoint, completely avoiding the need for stop_machine().
The way this is achieved:
- add a int3 trap to the address that will be patched
- sync cores
- update all but the first byte of the patched range
- sync cores
- replace the first byte (int3) by the first byte of
replacing opcode
- sync cores
According to
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1001.1/01530.html
synchronization after replacing "all but first" instructions should not
be necessary (on Intel hardware), as the syncing after the subsequent
patching of the first byte provides enough safety.
But there's not only Intel HW out there, and we'd rather be on a safe
side.
If any CPU instruction execution would collide with the patching,
it'd be trapped by the int3 breakpoint and redirected to the provided
"handler" (which would typically mean just skipping over the patched
region, acting as "nop" has been there, in case we are doing nop -> jump
and jump -> nop transitions).
Ftrace has been using this very technique since 08d636b ("ftrace/x86:
Have arch x86_64 use breakpoints instead of stop machine") for ages
already, and jump labels are another obvious potential user of this.

We still patch SMP instructions to UP variants if we boot with a
single CPU, but not at any other time. In particular, not if we
unplug CPUs to return to a single cpu.
Paul McKenney points out:
mean offline overhead is 6251/48=130.2 milliseconds.
If I remove the alternatives_smp_switch() from the offline
path [...] the mean offline overhead is 550/42=13.1 milliseconds
Basically, we're never going to get those 120ms back, and the
code is pretty messy.
We get rid of:
1) The "smp-alt-once" boot option. It's actually "smp-alt-boot", the
documentation is wrong. It's now the default.
2) The skip_smp_alternatives flag used by suspend.
3) arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_begin() and arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_end()
which were only used to set this one flag.

Probably a leftover from the early days of self-patching, p6nops
are marked __initconst_or_module, which causes them to be
discarded in a non-modular kernel. If something later triggers
patching, it will overwrite kernel code with garbage.

stop_machine_text_poke()
stop_machine_text_poke() uses atomic_dec_and_test() to select one of
the CPUs executing that function to actually modify the code.
Since the variable is initialized to 1, subsequent CPUs will make the
variable go negative. Since going negative is uncommon/unexpected in
typical dec_and_test usage change this user to atomic_xchg().
This was found using a patch that warns on dec_and_test going
negative.

Use a more current logging style:
- Bare printks should have a KERN_<LEVEL> for consistency's sake
- Add pr_fmt where appropriate
- Neaten some macro definitions
- Convert some Ok output to OK
- Use "%s: ", __func__ in pr_fmt for summit
- Convert some printks to pr_<level>
Message output is not identical in all cases.
