One of ftrace_caller_end and ftrace_return is redundant so unify them. Rename ftrace_return to ftrace_epilogue to mean that everything after that label represents, like an afterword, work which happens *after* the ftrace call, e.g., the function graph tracer for one. Steve wants this to rather mean "[a]n event which reflects meaningfully on a recently ended conflict or struggle." I can imagine that ftrace can be a struggle sometimes. Anyway, beef up the comment about the code contents and layout before ftrace_epilogue label.

This is a second attempt to make the improvements from c6f20629 ("x86/signal/64: Fix SS handling for signals delivered to 64-bit programs"), which was reverted by 51adbfbba5c6 ("x86/signal/64: Add support for SS in the 64-bit signal context"). This adds two new uc_flags flags. UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS will be set for all 64-bit signals (including x32). It indicates that the saved SS field is valid and that the kernel supports the new behavior. The goal is to fix a problems with signal handling in 64-bit tasks: SS wasn't saved in the 64-bit signal context, making it awkward to determine what SS was at the time of signal delivery and making it impossible to return to a non-flat SS (as calling sigreturn clobbers SS). This also made it extremely difficult for 64-bit tasks to return to fully-defined 16-bit contexts, because only the kernel can easily do espfix64, but sigreturn was unable to set a non-flag SS:ESP. (DOSEMU has a monstrous hack to partially work around this limitation.) If we could go back in time, the correct fix would be to make 64-bit signals work just like 32-bit signals with respect to SS: save it in signal context, reset it when delivering a signal, and restore it in sigreturn. Unfortunately, doing that (as I tried originally) breaks DOSEMU: DOSEMU wouldn't reset the signal context's SS when clearing the LDT and changing the saved CS to 64-bit mode, since it predates the SS context field existing in the first place. This patch is a bit more complicated, and it tries to balance a bunch of goals. It makes most cases of changing ucontext->ss during signal handling work as expected. I do this by special-casing the interesting case. On sigreturn, ucontext->ss will be honored by default, unless the ucontext was created from scratch by an old program and had a 64-bit CS (unfortunately, CRIU can do this) or was the result of changing a 32-bit signal context to 64-bit without resetting SS (as DOSEMU does). For the benefit of new 64-bit software that uses segmentation (new versions of DOSEMU might), the new behavior can be detected with a new ucontext flag UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS. To avoid compilation issues, __pad0 is left as an alias for ss in ucontext. The nitty-gritty details are documented in the header file. This patch also re-enables the sigreturn_64 and ldt_gdt_64 selftests, as the kernel change allows both of them to pass.

Signals are always delivered to 64-bit tasks with CS set to a long mode segment. In long mode, SS doesn't matter as long as it's a present writable segment. If SS starts out invalid (this can happen if the signal was caused by an IRET fault or was delivered on the way out of set_thread_area or modify_ldt), then IRET to the signal handler can fail, eventually killing the task. The straightforward fix would be to simply reset SS when delivering a signal. That breaks DOSEMU, though: 64-bit builds of DOSEMU rely on SS being set to the faulting SS when signals are delivered. As a compromise, this patch leaves SS alone so long as it's valid. The net effect should be that the behavior of successfully delivered signals is unchanged. Some signals that would previously have failed to be delivered will now be delivered successfully. This has no effect for x32 or 32-bit tasks: their signal handlers were already called with SS == __USER_DS. (On Xen, there's a slight hole: if a task sets SS to a writable *kernel* data segment, then we will fail to identify it as invalid and we'll still kill the task. If anyone cares, this could be fixed with a new paravirt hook.)

track_pfn_insert() overwrites the pgprot that is passed in with a value based on the VMA's page_prot. This is a problem for people trying to do clever things with the new vm_insert_pfn_prot() as it will simply overwrite the passed protection flags. If we use the current value of the pgprot as the base, then it will behave as people are expecting. Also fix track_pfn_remap() in the same way.

Sometimes GCC mysteriously doesn't inline very small functions we expect to be inlined, see: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66122 Arguably, GCC should do better, but GCC people aren't willing to invest time into it and are asking to use __always_inline instead.

sys_iopl() both reads and writes pt_regs->flags. Mark it as using ptregs. This isn't strictly necessary, as pt_regs->flags is available even in the fast path, but this is very lightweight now that we have syscall qualifiers and it could avoid some pain down the road.

I was fishing RIP (i.e. RCX) out of pt_regs->cx and RFLAGS (i.e. R11) out of pt_regs->r11. While it usually worked (pt_regs started out with CX == IP and R11 == FLAGS), it was very fragile. In particular, it broke sys_iopl() because sys_iopl() forgot to mark itself as using ptregs. Undo that part of the syscall rework. There was no compelling reason to do it this way. While I'm at it, load RCX and R11 before the other regs to be a little friendlier to the CPU, as they will be the first of the reloaded registers to be used.

So the old one didn't work properly before alternatives had run. And it was supposed to provide an optimized JMP because the assumption was that the offset it is jumping to is within a signed byte and thus a two-byte JMP. So I did an x86_64 allyesconfig build and dumped all possible sites where static_cpu_has() was used. The optimization amounted to all in all 12(!) places where static_cpu_has() had generated a 2-byte JMP. Which has saved us a whopping 36 bytes! This clearly is not worth the trouble so we can remove it. The only place where the optimization might count - in __switch_to() - we will handle differently. But that's not subject of this patch.

Move them to a separate header and have the following dependency: x86/cpufeatures.h <- x86/processor.h <- x86/cpufeature.h This makes it easier to use the header in asm code and not include the whole cpufeature.h and add guards for asm.

This is more complicated than the 32-bit and compat cases because it preserves an asm fast path for the case where the callee-saved regs aren't needed in pt_regs and no entry or exit work needs to be done. This appears to slow down fastpath syscalls by no more than one cycle on my Skylake laptop.

This removes all of the remaining asm syscall stubs except for stub_ptregs_64. Entries in the main syscall table are now all callable from C. The resulting asm is every bit as ridiculous as it looks. The next few patches will clean it up. This patch is here to let reviewers rest their brains and for bisection.

64-bit syscalls currently have an optimization in which they are called with partial pt_regs. A small handful require full pt_regs. In the 32-bit and compat cases, I cleaned this up by forcing full pt_regs for all syscalls. The performance hit doesn't really matter as the affected system calls are fundamentally heavy and this is the 32-bit compat case. I want to clean up the 64-bit case as well, but I don't want to hurt fast path performance. To do that, I want to force the syscalls that use pt_regs onto the slow path. This will enable us to make slow path syscalls be real ABI-compliant C functions. Use the new syscall entry qualification machinery for this. 'stub_clone' is now 'stub_clone/ptregs'. The next patch will eliminate the stubs, and we'll just have 'sys_clone/ptregs'. As of this patch, two-phase entry tracing is no longer used. It has served its purpose (namely a huge speedup on some workloads prior to more general opportunistic SYSRET support), and once the dust settles I'll send patches to back it out. The implementation is heavily based on a patch from Brian Gerst: http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1449666173-15366-1-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com Originally-From: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: H.

This will let us specify something like 'sys_xyz/foo' instead of 'sys_xyz' in the syscall table, where the 'foo' qualifier conveys some extra information to the C code. The intent is to allow things like sys_execve/ptregs to indicate that sys_execve() touches pt_regs.

Rather than duplicating the compat entry handling in all consumers of syscalls_BITS.h, handle it directly in syscalltbl.sh. Now we generate entries in syscalls_32.h like: __SYSCALL_I386(5, sys_open) __SYSCALL_I386(5, compat_sys_open) and all of its consumers implicitly get the right entry point.
