commit 24321ac668e452a4942598533d267805f291fdc9 upstream.

Commit 0138ba5783ae ("powerpc/64/signal: Balance return predictor
stack in signal trampoline") changed __kernel_sigtramp_rt64() VDSO and
trampoline code, and introduced a regression in the way glibc's
backtrace()[1] detects the signal-handler stack frame. Apart from the
practical implications, __kernel_sigtramp_rt64() was a VDSO function
with the semantics that it is a function you can call from userspace
to end a signal handling. Now this semantics are no longer valid.

I believe the aforementioned change affects all releases since 5.9.

This patch tries to fix both the semantics and practical aspect of
__kernel_sigtramp_rt64() returning it to the previous code, whilst
keeping the intended behaviour of 0138ba5783ae by adding a new symbol
to serve as the jump target from the kernel to the trampoline. Now the
trampoline has two parts, a new entry point and the old return point.

This reverts commit f2af201002a8bc22500c04cc474ea480bf361351.

It added a usage of cc-ldoption, but cc-ldoption was removed in commit
055efab3120b ("kbuild: drop support for cc-ldoption").

<title>powerpc/64/signal: Balance return predictor stack in signal trampoline</title>

<content type='text'>
Returning from an interrupt or syscall to a signal handler currently
begins execution directly at the handler's entry point, with LR set to
the address of the sigreturn trampoline. When the signal handler
function returns, it runs the trampoline. It looks like this:

    # interrupt at user address xyz
    # kernel stuff... signal is raised
    rfid
    # void handler(int sig)
    addis 2,12,.TOC.-.LCF0@ha
    addi 2,2,.TOC.-.LCF0@l
    mflr 0
    std 0,16(1)
    stdu 1,-96(1)
    # handler stuff
    ld 0,16(1)
    mtlr 0
    blr
    # __kernel_sigtramp_rt64
    addi    r1,r1,__SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE
    li      r0,__NR_rt_sigreturn
    sc
    # kernel executes rt_sigreturn
    rfid
    # back to user address xyz

Note the blr with no matching bl. This can corrupt the return
predictor.

Solve this by instead resuming execution at the signal trampoline
which then calls the signal handler. qtrace-tools link_stack checker
confirms the entire user/kernel/vdso cycle is balanced after this
patch, whereas it's not upstream.

Alan confirms the dwarf unwind info still looks good. gdb still
recognises the signal frame and can step into parent frames if it
break inside a signal handler.

Performance is pretty noisy, not a very significant change on a POWER9
here, but branch misses are consistently a lot lower on a
microbenchmark:

<title>powerpc: Fix vDSO clock_getres()</title>

clock_getres in the vDSO library has to preserve the same behaviour
of posix_get_hrtimer_res().

In particular, posix_get_hrtimer_res() does:
    sec = 0;
    ns = hrtimer_resolution;
and hrtimer_resolution depends on the enablement of the high
resolution timers that can happen either at compile or at run time.

Fix the powerpc vdso implementation of clock_getres keeping a copy of
hrtimer_resolution in vdso data and using that directly.

Fixes: a7f290dad32e ("[PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernel")

Pull y2038 cleanups from Arnd Bergmann:
 "y2038 syscall implementation cleanups

  This is a series of cleanups for the y2038 work, mostly intended for
  namespace cleaning: the kernel defines the traditional time_t, timeval
  and timespec types that often lead to y2038-unsafe code. Even though
  the unsafe usage is mostly gone from the kernel, having the types and
  associated functions around means that we can still grow new users,
  and that we may be missing conversions to safe types that actually
  matter.

  There are still a number of driver specific patches needed to get the
  last users of these types removed, those have been submitted to the
  respective maintainers"
