The commit:
59bec00ace ("x86/percpu: Introduce %rip-relative addressing to PER_CPU_VAR()")
made PER_CPU_VAR() to use rip-relative addressing, hence
INCREMENT_CALL_DEPTH macro and skl_call_thunk_template got rip-relative
asm code inside of it. A follow up commit:
17bce3b2ae ("x86/callthunks: Handle %rip-relative relocations in call thunk template")
changed x86_call_depth_emit_accounting() to use apply_relocation(),
but mistakenly assumed that the code is being patched in-place (where
the destination of the relocation matches the address of the code),
using *pprog as the destination ip. This is not true for the call depth
accounting, emitted by the BPF JIT, so the calculated address was wrong,
JIT-ed BPF progs on kernels with call depth tracking got broken and
usually caused a page fault.
Pass the destination IP when the BPF JIT emits call depth accounting.

- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
memory via variables declared with such attributes,
which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
than the previous inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally

better code.

to generate slightly better code.
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
to clean up the logic.
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.
[ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

Contrary to alternatives, relocations are currently not supported in
call thunk templates. Re-use the existing infrastructure from
alternative.c to allow %rip-relative relocations when copying call
thunk template from its storage location.
The patch allows unification of ASM_INCREMENT_CALL_DEPTH, which already
uses PER_CPU_VAR macro, with INCREMENT_CALL_DEPTH, used in call thunk
template, which is currently limited to use absolute address.

Similar to the alternative patching, use a relative reference for original
instruction offset rather than absolute one, which saves 8 bytes for one
PARA_SITE entry on x86_64. As a result, a R_X86_64_PC32 relocation is
generated instead of an R_X86_64_64 one, which also reduces relocation
metadata on relocatable builds. Hardcode the alignment to 4 now.

Commit 396e0b8e09 ("x86/orc: Make it callthunk aware") attempted to
deal with the fact that function prefix code didn't have ORC coverage.
However, it didn't work as advertised. Use of the "null" ORC entry just
caused affected unwinds to end early.
The root cause has now been fixed with commit 5743654f5e ("objtool:
Generate ORC data for __pfx code").
Revert most of commit 396e0b8e09 ("x86/orc: Make it callthunk aware").
The is_callthunk() function remains as it's now used by other code.

module_layout manages different types of memory (text, data, rodata, etc.)
in one allocation, which is problematic for some reasons:
1. It is hard to enable CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX.
2. It is hard to use huge pages in modules (and not break strict rwx).
3. Many archs uses module_layout for arch-specific data, but it is not
obvious how these data are used (are they RO, RX, or RW?)
Improve the scenario by replacing 2 (or 3) module_layout per module with
up to 7 module_memory per module:
MOD_TEXT,
MOD_DATA,
MOD_RODATA,
MOD_RO_AFTER_INIT,
MOD_INIT_TEXT,
MOD_INIT_DATA,
MOD_INIT_RODATA,
and allocating them separately. This adds slightly more entries to
mod_tree (from up to 3 entries per module, to up to 7 entries per
module). However, this at most adds a small constant overhead to
__module_address(), which is expected to be fast.
Various archs use module_layout for different data. These data are put
into different module_memory based on their location in module_layout.
IOW, data that used to go with text is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_TEXT;
data that used to go with data is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_DATA, etc.
module_memory simplifies quite some of the module code. For example,
ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC is a lot cleaner, as it just uses a
different allocator for the data. kernel/module/strict_rwx.c is also
much cleaner with module_memory.

Since ftrace has trampolines, don't use thunks for the __fentry__ site
but instead require that every function called from there includes
accounting. This very much includes all the direct-call functions.
Additionally, ftrace uses ROP tricks in two places:
- return_to_handler(), and
- ftrace_regs_caller() when pt_regs->orig_ax is set by a direct-call.
return_to_handler() already uses a retpoline to replace an
indirect-jump to defeat IBT, since this is a jump-type retpoline, make
sure there is no accounting done and ALTERNATIVE the RET into a ret.
ftrace_regs_caller() does much the same and gets the same treatment.

As for the builtins create call thunks and patch the call sites to call the
thunk on Intel SKL CPUs for retbleed mitigation.
Note, that module init functions are ignored for sake of simplicity because
loading modules is not something which is done in high frequent loops and
the attacker has not really a handle on when this happens in order to
launch a matching attack. The depth tracking will still work for calls into
the builtins and because the call is not accounted it will underflow faster
and overstuff, but that's mitigated by the saturating counter and the side
effect is only temporary.

Mitigating the Intel SKL RSB underflow issue in software requires to
track the call depth. That is every CALL and every RET need to be
intercepted and additional code injected.
The existing retbleed mitigations already include means of redirecting
RET to __x86_return_thunk; this can be re-purposed and RET can be
redirected to another function doing RET accounting.
CALL accounting will use the function padding introduced in prior
patches. For each CALL instruction, the destination symbol's padding
is rewritten to do the accounting and the CALL instruction is adjusted
to call into the padding.
This ensures only affected CPUs pay the overhead of this accounting.
Unaffected CPUs will leave the padding unused and have their 'JMP
__x86_return_thunk' replaced with an actual 'RET' instruction.
Objtool has been modified to supply a .call_sites section that lists
all the 'CALL' instructions. Additionally the paravirt instruction
sites are iterated since they will have been patched from an indirect
call to direct calls (or direct instructions in which case it'll be
ignored).
Module handling and the actual thunk code for SKL will be added in
subsequent steps.
