Clang-11 shipped support for outputs to asm goto statments along the fallthrough path. Double up some of the get_user() and related macros to be able to take advantage of this extended GNU C extension. This should help improve the generated code's performance for these accesses.

Instead of inlining the stac/mov/clac sequence (which also requires individual exception table entries and several asm instruction alternatives entries), just generate "call __put_user_nocheck_X" for the __put_user() cases, the same way we changed __get_user earlier. Unlike the get_user() case, we didn't have the same nice infrastructure to just generate the call with a single case, so this actually has to change some of the infrastructure in order to do this. But that only cleans up the code further. So now, instead of using a case statement for the sizes, we just do the same thing we've done on the get_user() side for a long time: use the size as an immediate constant to the asm, and generate the asm that way directly. In order to handle the special case of 64-bit data on a 32-bit kernel, I needed to change the calling convention slightly: the data is passed in %eax[:%edx], the pointer in %ecx, and the return value is also returned in %ecx. It used to be returned in %eax, but because of how %eax can now be a double register input, we don't want mix that with a single-register output. The actual low-level asm is easier to handle: we'll just share the code between the checking and non-checking case, with the non-checking case jumping into the middle of the function. That may sound a bit too special, but this code is all very very special anyway, so...

Instead of inlining the whole stac/lfence/mov/clac sequence (which also requires individual exception table entries and several asm instruction alternatives entries), just generate "call __get_user_nocheck_X" for the __get_user() cases. We can use all the same infrastructure that we already do for the regular "get_user()", and the end result is simpler source code, and much simpler code generation. It also means that when I introduce asm goto with input for "unsafe_get_user()", there are no nasty interactions with the __get_user() code.

Pull static call support from Ingo Molnar: "This introduces static_call(), which is the idea of static_branch() applied to indirect function calls. Remove a data load (indirection) by modifying the text. They give the flexibility of function pointers, but with better performance. (This is especially important for cases where retpolines would otherwise be used, as retpolines can be pretty slow.) API overview: DECLARE_STATIC_CALL(name, func); DEFINE_STATIC_CALL(name, func); DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(name, typename); static_call(name)(args...); static_call_cond(name)(args...); static_call_update(name, func); x86 is supported via text patching, otherwise basic indirect calls are used, with function pointers. There's a second variant using inline code patching, inspired by jump-labels, implemented on x86 as well. The new APIs are utilized in the x86 perf code, a heavy user of function pointers, where static calls speed up the PMU handler by 4.2% (!). The generic implementation is not really excercised on other architectures, outside of the trivial test_static_call_init() self-test" * tag 'core-static_call-2020-10-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (21 commits) static_call: Fix return type of static_call_init tracepoint: Fix out of sync data passing by static caller tracepoint: Fix overly long tracepoint names x86/perf, static_call: Optimize x86_pmu methods tracepoint: Optimize using static_call() static_call: Allow early init static_call: Add some validation static_call: Handle tail-calls static_call: Add static_call_cond() x86/alternatives: Teach text_poke_bp() to emulate RET static_call: Add simple self-test for static calls x86/static_call: Add inline static call implementation for x86-64 x86/static_call: Add out-of-line static call implementation static_call: Avoid kprobes on inline static_call()s static_call: Add inline static call infrastructure static_call: Add basic static call infrastructure compiler.h: Make __ADDRESSABLE() symbol truly unique jump_label,module: Fix module lifetime for __jump_label_mod_text_reserved() module: Properly propagate MODULE_STATE_COMING failure module: Fix up module_notifier return values ...
