      ftrace/x86: Fix triple fault with graph tracing and suspend-to-ram · 34a477e5
      Josh Poimboeuf authored
      On x86-32, with CONFIG_FIRMWARE and multiple CPUs, if you enable function
      graph tracing and then suspend to RAM, it will triple fault and reboot when
      it resumes.
      
      The first fault happens when booting a secondary CPU:
      
      startup_32_smp()
        load_ucode_ap()
          prepare_ftrace_return()
            ftrace_graph_is_dead()
              (accesses 'kill_ftrace_graph')
      
      The early head_32.S code calls into load_ucode_ap(), which has an an
      ftrace hook, so it calls prepare_ftrace_return(), which calls
      ftrace_graph_is_dead(), which tries to access the global
      'kill_ftrace_graph' variable with a virtual address, causing a fault
      because the CPU is still in real mode.
      
      The fix is to add a check in prepare_ftrace_return() to make sure it's
      running in protected mode before continuing.  The check makes sure the
      stack pointer is a virtual kernel address.  It's a bit of a hack, but
      it's not very intrusive and it works well enough.
      
      For reference, here are a few other (more difficult) ways this could
      have potentially been fixed:
      
      - Move startup_32_smp()'s call to load_ucode_ap() down to *after* paging
        is enabled.  (No idea what that would break.)
      
      - Track down load_ucode_ap()'s entire callee tree and mark all the
        functions 'notrace'.  (Probably not realistic.)
      
      - Pause graph tracing in ftrace_suspend_notifier_call() or bringup_cpu()
        or __cpu_up(), and ensure that the pause facility can be queried from
        real mode.

       "Al Viro reported that - in case of read faults - our copy_from_user()
        implementation may claim to have copied more bytes than it actually
        did. In order to fix this bug and because of the way how gcc optimizes
        register usage for inline assembly in C code, we had to replace our
        pa_memcpy() function with a pure assembler implementation.
      
        While fixing the memcpy bug we noticed some other issues with our
        get_user() and put_user() functions, e.g. nested faults may return
        wrong data. This is now fixed by a common fixup handler for
        get_user/put_user in the exception handler which additionally makes
        generated code smaller and faster.
      
        The third patch is a trivial one-line fix for a patch which went in
        during 4.11-rc and which avoids stalled CPU warnings after power
        shutdown (for parisc machines which can't plug power off themselves).
      
        Due to the rewrite of pa_memcpy() into assembly this patch got bigger
        than what I wanted to have sent at this stage.
      
        Those patches have been running in production during the last few days
        on our debian build servers without any further issues"
