Recent patch fixed an old commit 'fc2a5a6161a2 ("powerpc/64s: ppc_save_regs is now needed for all 64s builds")' which is to include building of ppc_save_reg.c only when XMON and KEXEC_CORE and PPC_BOOK3S are enabled. This was valid, since ppc_save_regs was called only in replay_system_reset() of old irq.c which was under BOOK3S. But there has been multiple refactoring of irq.c and have added call to ppc_save_regs() from __replay_soft_interrupts -> replay_soft_interrupts which is part of irq_64.c included under CONFIG_PPC64. And since ppc_save_regs is called in CRASH_DUMP path as part of crash_setup_regs in kexec.h, CONFIG_PPC32 also needs it. So with this recent patch which enabled the building of ppc_save_regs.c caused a build break when none of these (XMON, KEXEC_CORE, BOOK3S) where enabled as part of config. Patch to enable building of ppc_save_regs.c by defaults.

commit 93bd4a80efeb521314485a06d8c21157240497bb upstream.

Recent patch fixed an old commit
'fc2a5a6161a2 ("powerpc/64s: ppc_save_regs is now needed for all 64s builds")'
which is to include building of ppc_save_reg.c only when XMON
and KEXEC_CORE and PPC_BOOK3S are enabled. This was valid, since
ppc_save_regs was called only in replay_system_reset() of old
irq.c which was under BOOK3S.

But there has been multiple refactoring of irq.c and have
added call to ppc_save_regs() from __replay_soft_interrupts
-> replay_soft_interrupts which is part of irq_64.c included
under CONFIG_PPC64. And since ppc_save_regs is called in
CRASH_DUMP path as part of crash_setup_regs in kexec.h,
CONFIG_PPC32 also needs it.

So with this recent patch which enabled the building of
ppc_save_regs.c caused a build break when none of these
(XMON, KEXEC_CORE, BOOK3S) where enabled as part of config.
Patch to enable building of ppc_save_regs.c by defaults.

powerpc: Replace kretprobe code with rethook on powerpc 2024-09-05T12:25:36+00:00 Abhishek Dubey adubey@linux.ibm.com 2024-08-30T11:31:31+00:00 19f1bc3fb55452739dd3d56cfd06c29ecdbe3e9f This is an adaptation of commit f3a112c0c40d ("x86,rethook,kprobes: Replace kretprobe with rethook on x86") to powerpc. Rethook follows the existing kretprobe implementation, but separates it from kprobes so that it can be used by fprobe (ftrace-based function entry/exit probes). As such, this patch also enables fprobe to work on powerpc. The only other change compared to the existing kretprobe implementation is doing the return address fixup in arch_rethook_fixup_return().

powerpc/dexcr: Reset DEXCR value across exec 2024-05-03T10:46:51+00:00 Benjamin Gray bgray@linux.ibm.com 2024-04-17T11:23:19+00:00 bbd99922d0f4518518282217159666c679c6a0d1 Inheriting the DEXCR across exec can have security and usability concerns. If a program is compiled with hash instructions it generally expects to run with NPHIE enabled. But if the parent process disables NPHIE then if it's not careful it will be disabled for any children too and the protection offered by hash checks is basically worthless. This patch introduces a per-process reset value that new execs in a particular process tree are initialized with. This enables fine grained control over what DEXCR value child processes run with by default. For example, containers running legacy binaries that expect hash instructions to act as NOPs could configure the reset value of the container root to control the default reset value for all members of the container.
