Back in 2009 we merged 501cb16d "Randomise PIEs", which added support for randomizing PIE (Position Independent Executable) binaries. That commit added randomize_et_dyn(), which correctly randomized the addresses, but failed to honor PF_RANDOMIZE. That means it was not possible to disable PIE randomization via the personality flag, or /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space. Since then there has been generic support for PIE randomization added to binfmt_elf.c, selectable via ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE. Enabling that allows us to drop randomize_et_dyn(), which means we start honoring PF_RANDOMIZE correctly. It also causes a fairly major change to how we layout PIE binaries. Currently we will place the binary at 512MB-520MB for 32 bit binaries, or 512MB-1.5GB for 64 bit binaries, eg: $ cat /proc/$$/maps 4e550000-4e580000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash 4e580000-4e590000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash 10014110000-10014140000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 3fffaa3f0000-3fffaa5a0000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 3fffaa5a0000-3fffaa5b0000 rw-p 001a0000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 3fffaa5c0000-3fffaa5d0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 3fffaa5d0000-3fffaa5f0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 3fffaa5f0000-3fffaa620000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so 3fffaa620000-3fffaa630000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so 3ffffc340000-3ffffc370000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] With this commit applied we don't do any special randomisation for the binary, and instead rely on mmap randomisation. This means the binary ends up at high addresses, eg: $ cat /proc/$$/maps 3fff99820000-3fff999d0000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 3fff999d0000-3fff999e0000 rw-p 001a0000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 3fff999f0000-3fff99a00000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 3fff99a00000-3fff99a20000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 3fff99a20000-3fff99a50000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so 3fff99a50000-3fff99a60000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so 3fff99a60000-3fff99a90000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash 3fff99a90000-3fff99aa0000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash 3fffc3de0000-3fffc3e10000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 3fffc55e0000-3fffc5610000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] Although this should be OK, it's possible it might break badly written binaries that make assumptions about the address space layout.

Commit 262af557 ("powerpc/powernv: Enable M64 aperatus for PHB3") introduced compound PEs in order to support M64 aperatus on PHB3. However, we never configured PELTV for compound PEs.

In arch/powerpc/include/asm/bitops.h, the comments about bit numbers in large (> 1 word) bitmaps have two typos: - On ppc64 system, the LSB of the 4th word should be bit 192 rather than 196, because if it's bit 196, bit 192-195 will be missing in the bitmap. - On ppc32 system, the LSB of the second word should be bit 32 rather than 31, because bit 31 is already in the first word.

The system call FLIH (first-level interrupt handler) at 0xc00 unconditionally sets hardware priority to medium. For hypercalls, this means we lose guest OS priority. The front end (do_kvm_0x**) to the KVM interrupt handler always assumes that PPR priority is saved in PACA exception save area, so it copies this to the kvm_hstate structure. For hypercalls, this would be the saved priority from any previous exception. Eventually, the guest gets resumed with an incorrect priority. The fix is to save the PPR priority in PACA exception save area before switching HMT priorities in the FLIH so that existing code described above in the KVM interrupt handler can copy it from there into the VCPU's saved context.

The H_SET_MODE hcall returns H_P2 if a function is not implemented and all callers should handle this case. The call to enable relocation on exceptions currently prints an error message if the feature is not implemented. While H_SET_MODE was first introduced on POWER8 (which has relocation on exceptions), it has been now added on some POWER7 configurations (which does not). Check for H_P2 and print an informational message instead. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

LLVM doesn't support local named register variables and is unlikely to. current_thread_info is using one, fix it by moving it out and calling it __current_r1(). I gave it a bit of an obscure name because we don't want anyone else using it - they should use current_stack_pointer(). This specific case is performance critical and we can't afford to call a function to get it. Furthermore it isn't important to know exactly where in the stack we are since we mask the lower bits.

The build is broken with CONFIG_PPC32=y, CONFIG_FB_VGA16=y and CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=n. The problem is that vgacon_remap_base is not defined. It's used in: #define VGA_MAP_MEM(x,s) (x + vgacon_remap_base) Which is used in the vga16fb.c code. Digging down it seems vgacon_remap_base is never initialised. It used to be, back in arch/ppc (pplus.c and prep_setup.c), but none of that code ever made it to arch/powerpc. So given it's been unused for >6 years, remove it. Whether vga16fb.c works on 32-bit is another question, but this patch shouldn't affect it. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

On some platforms a 5 second timeout during boot might be quite long, so make it configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop the boot by holding a key pressed. If the timeout is set to 0, don't wait for input, which can be used as a workaround if the boot hangs on random data coming in on the serial port.

Instead of passing in the stack address of the link register to be modified, just pass in the old value and return the new value and rely on ftrace_graph_caller to do the modification. This removes the exception handling around the stack update - it isn't needed and we weren't consistent about it.
