ftrace use module_alloc() to allocate trampoline pages. The mapping of
module_alloc() is RWX, which makes sense as the memory is written to right
after allocation. But nothing makes these pages RO after writing to them.
Add proper set_memory_rw/ro() calls to protect the trampolines after
modification.

Fix kprobes to set(recover) RWX bits correctly on trampoline
buffer before releasing it. Releasing readonly page to
module_memfree() crash the kernel.
Without this fix, if kprobes user register a bunch of kprobes
in function body (since kprobes on function entry usually
use ftrace) and unregister it, kernel hits a BUG and crash.

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.

Dave Jones and Steven Rostedt reported unwinder warnings like the
following:
WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at ffff8800bda0ff30 in sshd:1090 has bad value 000055b32abf1fa8
In both cases, the unwinder was attempting to unwind from an ftrace
handler into entry code. The callchain was something like:
syscall entry code
C function
ftrace handler
save_stack_trace()
The problem is that the unwinder's end-of-stack logic gets confused by
the way ftrace lays out the stack frame (with fentry enabled).
I was able to recreate this warning with:
echo call_usermodehelper_exec_async:stacktrace > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
(exit login session)
I considered fixing this by changing the ftrace code to rewrite the
stack to make the unwinder happy. But that seemed too intrusive after I
implemented it. Instead, just add another check to the unwinder's
end-of-stack logic to detect this special case.
Side note: We could probably get rid of these end-of-stack checks by
encoding the frame pointer for syscall entry just like we do for
interrupt entry. That would be simpler, but it would also be a lot more
intrusive since it would slightly affect the performance of every
syscall.

Export the function which checks whether an MCE is a memory error to
other users so that we can reuse the logic. Drop the boot_cpu_data use,
while at it, as mce.cpuvendor already has the CPU vendor in there.
Integrate a piece from a patch from Vishal Verma
<vishal.l.verma@intel.com> to export it for modules (nfit).
The main reason we're exporting it is that the nfit handler
nfit_handle_mce() needs to detect a memory error properly before doing
its recovery actions.

SDM mentioned that "The MXCSR has several reserved bits, and attempting to write
a 1 to any of these bits will cause a general-protection exception(#GP) to be
generated". The syzkaller forks' testcase overrides xsave area w/ random values
and steps on the reserved bits of MXCSR register. The damaged MXCSR register
values of guest will be restored to SSEx MXCSR register before vmentry. This
patch fixes it by catching userspace override MXCSR register reserved bits w/
random values and bails out immediately.

|
|
When running as Xen pv guest X86_BUG_SYSRET_SS_ATTRS must not be set
on AMD cpus.
This bug/feature bit is kind of special as it will be used very early
when switching threads. Setting the bit and clearing it a little bit
later leaves a critical window where things can go wrong. This time
window has enlarged a little bit by using setup_clear_cpu_cap() instead
of the hypervisor's set_cpu_features callback. It seems this larger
window now makes it rather easy to hit the problem.
The proper solution is to never set the bit in case of Xen.

This partially reverts commit:
23b2a4ddebdd17f ("x86/boot/32: Defer resyncing initial_page_table until per-cpu is set up")
That commit had one definite bug and one potential bug. The
definite bug is that setup_per_cpu_areas() uses a differnet generic
implementation on UP kernels, so initial_page_table never got
resynced. This was fine for access to percpu data (it's in the
identity map on UP), but it breaks other users of
initial_page_table. The potential bug is that helpers like
efi_init() would be called before the tables were synced.
Avoid both problems by just syncing the page tables in setup_arch()
*and* setup_per_cpu_areas().

__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying
allocation. This API is quite popular
$ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l
77
The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want
to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no
reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages
which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't
use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily
too complex.
This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to
be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM
are simplified and drop the flag.

Kexec sets up all identity mappings before booting into the new
kernel, and this will cause extra memory consumption for paging
structures which is quite considerable on modern machines with
huge memory sizes.
E.g. on a 32TB machine that is kdumping, it could waste around
128MB (around 4MB/TB) from the reserved memory after kexec sets
all the identity mappings using the current 2MB page.
Add to that the memory needed for the loaded kdump kernel, initramfs,
etc., and it causes a kexec syscall -NOMEM failure.
As a result, we had to enlarge reserved memory via "crashkernel=X"
to work around this problem.
This causes some trouble for distributions that use policies
to evaluate the proper "crashkernel=X" value for users.
So enable gbpages for kexec mappings.

Kernel identity mappings on x86-64 kernels are created in two
ways: by the early x86 boot code, or by kernel_ident_mapping_init().
Native kernels (which is the dominant usecase) use the former,
but the kexec and the hibernation code uses kernel_ident_mapping_init().
There's a subtle difference between these two ways of how identity
mappings are created, the current kernel_ident_mapping_init() code
creates identity mappings always using 2MB page(PMD level) - while
the native kernel boot path also utilizes gbpages where available.
This difference is suboptimal both for performance and for memory
usage: kernel_ident_mapping_init() needs to allocate pages for the
page tables when creating the new identity mappings.
This patch adds 1GB page(PUD level) support to kernel_ident_mapping_init()
to address these concerns.
The primary advantage would be better TLB coverage/performance,
because we'd utilize 1GB TLBs instead of 2MB ones.
It is also useful for machines with large number of memory to
save paging structure allocations(around 4MB/TB using 2MB page)
when setting identity mappings for all the memory, after using
1GB page it will consume only 8KB/TB.
( Note that this change alone does not activate gbpages in kexec,
we are doing that in a separate patch. )

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New features for this release:
- Pretty much a full rewrite of the processing of function plugins.

- The rewrite was needed to add plugins to be unique to tracing
instances. i.e. mkdir instance/foo; cd instances/foo; echo
do_IRQ:stacktrace > set_ftrace_filter The old way was written very
hacky. This removes a lot of those hacks.
- New "function-fork" tracing option. When set, pids in the
set_ftrace_pid will have their children added when the processes
with their pids listed in the set_ftrace_pid file forks.
- Exposure of "maxactive" for kretprobe in kprobe_events
- Allow for builtin init functions to be traced by the function
tracer (via the kernel command line). Module init function tracing
will come in the next release.

Pull livepatch updates from Jiri Kosina:
- a per-task consistency model is being added for architectures that
support reliable stack dumping (extending this, currently rather
trivial set, is currently in the works).
This extends the nature of the types of patches that can be applied
by live patching infrastructure. The code stems from the design
proposal made [1] back in November 2014. It's a hybrid of SUSE's
kGraft and RH's kpatch, combining advantages of both: it uses
kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined
with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of
fallback options which make it quite flexible.
Most of the heavy lifting done by Josh Poimboeuf with help from
Miroslav Benes and Petr Mladek

As a preparation to splitting the code we need to untangle it:
x86_hyper_xen -> x86_hyper_xen_hvm and x86_hyper_xen_pv
xen_platform() -> xen_platform_hvm() and xen_platform_pv()
xen_cpu_up_prepare() -> xen_cpu_up_prepare_pv() and xen_cpu_up_prepare_hvm()
xen_cpu_dead() -> xen_cpu_dead_pv() and xen_cpu_dead_pv_hvm()
Add two parameters to xen_cpuhp_setup() to pass proper cpu_up_prepare and
cpu_dead hooks. xen_set_cpu_features() is now PV-only so the redundant
xen_pv_domain() check can be dropped.

Pull RAS updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- add the 'Corrected Errors Collector' kernel feature which collect
and monitor correctable errors statistics and will preemptively
(soft-)offline physical pages that have a suspiciously high error
count.
- handle MCE errors during kexec() more gracefully
- factor out and deprecate the /dev/mcelog driver
- ... plus misc fixes and cleanpus"

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
Kernel side changes:
- Kprobes and uprobes changes:
- Make their trampolines read-only while they are used
- Make UPROBES_EVENTS default-y which is the distro practice
- Apply misc fixes and robustization to probe point insertion.
- add support for AMD IOMMU events
- extend hw events on Intel Goldmont CPUs
- ... plus misc fixes and updates.
Tooling side changes:
- support s390 jump instructions in perf annotate (Christian
Borntraeger)
- vendor hardware events updates (Andi Kleen)
- add argument support for SDT events in powerpc (Ravi Bangoria)
- beautify the statx syscall arguments in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- handle inline functions in callchains (Jin Yao)
- enable sorting by srcline as key (Milian Wolff)
- add 'brstackinsn' field in 'perf script' to reuse the x86
instruction decoder used in the Intel PT code to study hot paths to
samples (Andi Kleen)
- add PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES so that the kernel can record
information required to associate samples to namespaces, helping in
container problem characterization. (Hari Bathini)
- allow sorting by symbol_size in 'perf report' and 'perf top'
(Charles Baylis)
- in perf stat, make system wide (-a) the default option if no target
was specified and one of following conditions is met:
- no workload specified (current behaviour)
- a workload is specified but all requested events are system wide
ones, like uncore ones. (Jiri Olsa)
- ... plus lots of other updates, enhancements, cleanups and fixes"

Pul x86/process updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main change in this cycle was to add the ARCH_[GET|SET]_CPUID
prctl() ABI extension to control the availability of the CPUID
instruction, analogously to the existing PR_GET|SET_TSC ABI that
controls RDTSC.
Motivation: the 'rr' user-space record-and-replay execution debugger
would like to trap and emulate the CPUID instruction - which
instruction is normally unprivileged.
Trapping CPUID is possible on IvyBridge and later Intel CPUs - expose
this hardware capability"
