3a23208e69 x86/entry: Define 'cpu_current_top_of_stack' for 64-bit code
32-bit code has PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack).
64-bit code uses somewhat more obscure: PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_tss + TSS_sp0).

Define the 'cpu_current_top_of_stack' macro on CONFIG_X86_64
as well so that the PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack)
expression can be used in both 32-bit and 64-bit code.

63332a8455 x86/entry: Stop using PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack)
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) is redundant:

  - On the 64-bit build, we can use PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_tss + TSS_sp0).
  - On the 32-bit build, we can use PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack).

PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) will be deleted by a separate change.

61f01dd941 x86_64, asm: Work around AMD SYSRET SS descriptor attribute issue
AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.

Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.

This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

Fixes: e7d6eefaaa x86/vdso32/syscall.S: Do not load __USER32_DS to %ss

3f5159a922 x86/asm/entry/32: Update -ENOSYS handling to match the 64-bit logic
Recently Andy changed the 64-bit syscall logic so that
pt_regs->ax is initially set to -ENOSYS, and on syscall exit,
it is updated with the actual return value. This simplified
the logic there.

This patch does the same for 32-bit syscall entry points.

The check for %rax being too big is moved to be just before
the call instruction which dispatches execution through the
syscall table.

There is no way to accidentally skip this check now by jumping
to a label after it. This allows us to remove redundant checks
after ptrace et al.

If %rax is too big, we just skip over the (call, write %rax to
pt_regs->ax) instruction pair. pt_regs->ax remains set to -ENOSYS,
and it gets returned to userspace.

Similar to 64-bit code, this eliminates the "ia32_badsys" code path.

Run-tested.

4214a16b02 x86/asm/entry/64/compat: Use SYSRETL to return from compat mode SYSENTER
SYSEXIT is scary on 64-bit kernels -- SYSEXIT must be invoked
with usergs and IRQs on.  That means that we rely on STI to
correctly mask interrupts for one instruction.  This is okay by
itself, but the semantics with respect to NMIs are unclear.

Avoid the whole issue by using SYSRETL instead.  For background,
Intel CPUs don't allow SYSCALL from compat mode, but they do
allow SYSRETL back to compat mode.  Go figure.

To avoid doing too much at once, this doesn't revamp the calling
convention.  We still return with EBP, EDX, and ECX on the user
stack.

Oddly this seems to be 30 cycles or so faster.  Avoiding POPFQ
and STI will account for under half of that, I think, so my best
guess is that Intel just optimizes SYSRET much better than
SYSEXIT.

4c9c0e919f x86/asm/entry/32: Use smaller PUSH instructions instead of MOV, to build 'pt_regs' on stack

a232e3d558 x86/asm/entry/32: Update "interrupt off" comments
The existing comment has proven to be not very clear.

Replace it with a comment similar to the one we now have in the 64-bit
syscall entry point. (Three instances, one per 32-bit syscall entry).

In the INT80 entry point's CFI annotations, replace mysterious
expressions with numric constants. In this case, raw numbers
look more understandable.

ef593260f0 x86/asm/entry: Get rid of KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) was set up in a way where it points
five stack slots below the top of stack.

Presumably, it was done to avoid one "sub $5*8,%rsp"
in syscall/sysenter code paths, where iret frame needs to be
created by hand.

Ironically, none of them benefits from this optimization,
since all of them need to allocate additional data on stack
(struct pt_regs), so they still have to perform subtraction.

This patch eliminates KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET.

PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) now points directly to top of stack.
pt_regs allocations are adjusted to allocate iret frame as well.
Hopefully we can merge it later with 32-bit specific
PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack) variable...

Net result in generated code is that constants in several insns
are changed.

This change is necessary for changing struct pt_regs creation
in SYSCALL64 code path from MOV to PUSH instructions.

b3fe8ba320 x86/asm/entry/64: Change the THREAD_INFO() definition to not depend on KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET
This changes the THREAD_INFO() definition and all its callsites
so that they do not count stack position from
(top of stack - KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET), but from top of stack.

Semi-mysterious expressions THREAD_INFO(%rsp,RIP) - "why RIP??"
are now replaced by more logical THREAD_INFO(%rsp,SIZEOF_PTREGS)
- "calculate thread_info's address using information that
rsp is SIZEOF_PTREGS bytes below top of stack".

While at it, replace "(off)-THREAD_SIZE(reg)" with equivalent
"((off)-THREAD_SIZE)(reg)". The form without parentheses
falsely looks like we invoke THREAD_SIZE() macro.

Improve comment atop THREAD_INFO macro definition.

This patch does not change generated code (verified by objdump).

14f6e9532d x86/asm/entry/64/compat: Fold the IA32_ARG_FIXUP macro into its callers
Use of a small macro - one with conditional expansion - does
more harm than good. It obfuscates code, with minimal code
reuse.

For example, because of obfuscation it's not obvious that
in 'ia32_sysenter_target', we can optimize loading of r9 -
currently it is loaded with a detour through ebp.

This patch folds the IA32_ARG_FIXUP macro into its callers.

No code changes.

b87cf63e2a x86/asm/entry: Add comments about various syscall instructions
SYSCALL/SYSRET and SYSENTER/SYSEXIT have weird semantics.
Moreover, they differ in 32- and 64-bit mode.

What is saved? What is not? Is rsp set? Are interrupts disabled?
People tend to not remember these details well enough.

This patch adds comments which explain in detail
what registers are modified by each of these instructions.

The comments are placed immediately before corresponding
entry and exit points.

76f5df43ca x86/asm/entry/64: Always allocate a complete "struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack
The 64-bit entry code was using six stack slots less by not
saving/restoring registers which are callee-preserved according
to the C ABI, and was not allocating space for them.

Only when syscalls needed a complete "struct pt_regs" was
the complete area allocated and filled in.

As an additional twist, on interrupt entry a "slightly less
truncated pt_regs" trick is used, to make nested interrupt
stacks easier to unwind.

This proved to be a source of significant obfuscation and subtle
bugs. For example, 'stub_fork' had to pop the return address,
extend the struct, save registers, and push return address back.
Ugly. 'ia32_ptregs_common' pops return address and "returns" via
jmp insn, throwing a wrench into CPU return stack cache.

This patch changes the code to always allocate a complete
"struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack. The saving of registers
is still done lazily.

"Partial pt_regs" trick on interrupt stack is retained.

Macros which manipulate "struct pt_regs" on stack are reworked:

 - ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK allocates the structure.

 - SAVE_C_REGS saves to it those registers which are clobbered
   by C code.

 - SAVE_EXTRA_REGS saves to it all other registers.

 - Corresponding RESTORE_* and REMOVE_PT_GPREGS_FROM_STACK macros
   reverse it.

'ia32_ptregs_common', 'stub_fork' and friends lost their ugly dance
with the return pointer.

LOAD_ARGS32 in ia32entry.S now uses symbolic stack offsets
instead of magic numbers.

'error_entry' and 'save_paranoid' now use SAVE_C_REGS +
SAVE_EXTRA_REGS instead of having it open-coded yet again.

Patch was run-tested: 64-bit executables, 32-bit executables,
strace works.

Timing tests did not show measurable difference in 32-bit
and 64-bit syscalls.

653bc77af6 x86_64, entry: Fix out of bounds read on sysenter
Rusty noticed a Really Bad Bug (tm) in my NT fix.  The entry code
reads out of bounds, causing the NT fix to be unreliable.  But, and
this is much, much worse, if your stack is somehow just below the
top of the direct map (or a hole), you read out of bounds and crash.

Excerpt from the crash:

[    1.129513] RSP: 0018:ffff88001da4bf88  EFLAGS: 00010296

  2b:*    f7 84 24 90 00 00 00     testl  $0x4000,0x90(%rsp)

That read is deterministically above the top of the stack.  I
thought I even single-stepped through this code when I wrote it to
check the offset, but I clearly screwed it up.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
 "So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
  problem.  We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process.  seccomp
  hooks in before the audit syscall entry code.  audit_syscall_entry
  took as an argument the arch of the given syscall.  Since the arch is
  part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
  of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
  syscall...

  For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
  So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
  there is audit which didn't have it.  Use syscall_get_arch() in the
  seccomp audit code.  Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
  a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
  syscall entry.

  The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
  records that had invalid spaces.  Better locking around the task comm
  field.  Removing some dead functions and structs.  Make some things
  static.  Really minor stuff"

8c7aa698ba x86_64, entry: Filter RFLAGS.NT on entry from userspace
The NT flag doesn't do anything in long mode other than causing IRET
to #GP.  Oddly, CPL3 code can still set NT using popf.

Entry via hardware or software interrupt clears NT automatically, so
the only relevant entries are fast syscalls.

If user code causes kernel code to run with NT set, then there's at
least some (small) chance that it could cause trouble.  For example,
user code could cause a call to EFI code with NT set, and who knows
what would happen?  Apparently some games on Wine sometimes do
this (!), and, if an IRET return happens, they will segfault.  That
segfault cannot be handled, because signal delivery fails, too.

This patch programs the CPU to clear NT on entry via SYSCALL (both
32-bit and 64-bit, by my reading of the AMD APM), and it clears NT
in software on entry via SYSENTER.

To save a few cycles, this borrows a trick from Jan Beulich in Xen:
it checks whether NT is set before trying to clear it.  As a result,
it seems to have very little effect on SYSENTER performance on my
machine.

There's another minor bug fix in here: it looks like the CFI
annotations were wrong if CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL=n.

Testers beware: on Xen, SYSENTER with NT set turns into a GPF.

I haven't touched anything on 32-bit kernels.

The syscall mask change comes from a variant of this patch by Anish
Bhatt.

Note to stable maintainers: there is no known security issue here.
A misguided program can set NT and cause the kernel to try and fail
to deliver SIGSEGV, crashing the program.  This patch fixes Far Cry
on Wine: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33275

f031cd2556 audit: ia32entry.S sign extend error codes when calling 64 bit code
In the ia32entry syscall exit audit fastpath we have assembly code which calls
__audit_syscall_exit directly.  This code was, however, zeroes the upper 32
bits of the return code.  It then proceeded to call code which expects longs
to be 64bits long.  In order to handle code which expects longs to be 64bit we
sign extend the return code if that code is an error.  Thus the
__audit_syscall_exit function can correctly handle using the values in
snprintf("%ld").  This fixes the regression introduced in 5cbf1565f2.

Old record:
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1306197182.256:281): arch=40000003 syscall=192 success=no exit=4294967283

d7e7528bcd Audit: push audit success and retcode into arch ptrace.h
The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to
supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was.
Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things
by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating
success or failure.  This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid
pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall.  The fix is to fix the
layering foolishness.  We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it
in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to
determine if the syscall was a success or failure.  We also define a generic
is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the
value is < -MAX_ERRNO.  This works for arches like x86 which do not use a
separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure.

We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines
instead of macros.  The reason is because the audit function must take a void*
for the regs.  (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct
pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs).  Since the audit
function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the
arch correct structure to dereference it.

The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we
change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure.
THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it
makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs.

In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old
audit code as the return value.  But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro
regs_return_value() as regs[3].  I have no idea which one is correct, but this
patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3].

For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the
regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3].  regs->gprs[3] is
always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative
before calling the audit code when appropriate.

f6b2bc8476 x86-64: Cleanup some assembly entry points
system_call_after_swapgs doesn't really benefit from forcing
alignment from it - quite the opposite, native code needlessly
so far got a big NOP instruction inserted in front of it. Xen
being the only user of the separate entry point can well live
with the branch going to three bytes into a cache line.

The compatibility mode ptregs entry points for one can make use
of the GLOBAL() macro, and should be suitably aligned. Their
shared continuation point (ia32_ptregs_common) otoh doesn't need
to be global at all, but should continue to be properly aligned.

46db09d3fd x86-64: Slightly shorten line system call entry and exit paths
GET_THREAD_INFO() involves a memory read immediately followed by
an "sub" on the value read, in turn (in several cases)
immediately followed by a use of the calculated value as the
base address of a memory access. This combination of
instructions has a non-negligible potential for stalls.

In the system call entry point code, however, the (fixed) offset
of the stack pointer from the end of the stack is generally
known, and hence we can instead avoid the memory load and
subtract, and instead do the memory reference using %rsp as the
base register. To do so in a legible fashion, introduce a
THREAD_INFO() macro which, provided a register (generally %rsp)
and the known offset from the end of the stack, produces a
suitable memory access operand.

The patch attempts to only touch the fast paths (no auditing and
alike), but manages to do so only in the 64-bit entry point
case; the compatibility mode entry points have so many
interdependencies between their various branch targets that it
was necessary to also adjust the slow paths to eliminate the
risk of having missed some register dependency during code
analysis.

303395ac3b x86: Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h from tables
Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h automatically from the
tables in arch/x86/syscalls.  All other information, like NR_syscalls,
is auto-generated, some of which is in asm-offsets_*.c.

This allows us to keep all the system call information in one place,
and allows for kernel space and user space to see different
information; this is currently used for the ia32 system call numbers
when building the 64-bit kernel, but will be used by the x32 ABI in
the near future.

This also removes some gratuitious differences between i386, x86-64
and ia32; in particular, now all system call tables are generated with
the same mechanism.

fcf634098c Cross Memory Attach
The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing
intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a
double copy of the message via shared memory.

The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination
process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory
directly from the source process into its own address space via a system
call.  There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current
process's address space into a destination process's address space.

- Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with
  using it:
  - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming
    preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or
  written to would need to be contiguous.
  - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently
  ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read
  from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call,
  but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping
  (reason  appears to have been lost)
  - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix
  domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view,
  especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands
  of processes  that all need to do this with each other
  - Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to
  consider adding in the future (see below)
  - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually
  involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily)

As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has
problems.  Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if
the pipe is not drained then you block.  Which requires some wrapping to
do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive.  In all to all
communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock.  And in the
example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the
copying.

There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface
does not get us the performance gain we could.  For example in an
MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to
instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as
this would save us doing a copy.  We don't need to keep a copy of the data
from the source.  I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface
could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could
specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just
copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source
and destination and store it in the destination.

Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had
some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra
process messaging which is not MPI).  This interface is something which
hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement
fast local communication.  And so in addition to this being useful for
OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up
when the mm changes.

There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would
go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2

There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here:

http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt

This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should
mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv
and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for
64-bit kernels.

For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly
verify that the syscalls are working correctly here:
