commit aec86b052df6541cc97c5fca44e5934cbea4963b upstream.

The entry flush mitigation can be enabled/disabled at runtime via a
debugfs file (entry_flush), which causes the kernel to patch itself to
enable/disable the relevant mitigations.

However depending on which mitigation we're using, it may not be safe to
do that patching while other CPUs are active. For example the following
crash:

  sleeper[15639]: segfault (11) at c000000000004c20 nip c000000000004c20 lr c000000000004c20

Shows that we returned to userspace with a corrupted LR that points into
the kernel, due to executing the partially patched call to the fallback
entry flush (ie. we missed the LR restore).

Fix it by doing the patching under stop machine. The CPUs that aren't
doing the patching will be spinning in the core of the stop machine
logic. That is currently sufficient for our purposes, because none of
the patching we do is to that code or anywhere in the vicinity.

commit 8ec7791bae1327b1c279c5cd6e929c3b12daaf0a upstream.

The STF (store-to-load forwarding) barrier mitigation can be
enabled/disabled at runtime via a debugfs file (stf_barrier), which
causes the kernel to patch itself to enable/disable the relevant
mitigations.

However depending on which mitigation we're using, it may not be safe to
do that patching while other CPUs are active. For example the following
crash:

  User access of kernel address (c00000003fff5af0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
  segfault (11) at c00000003fff5af0 nip 7fff8ad12198 lr 7fff8ad121f8 code 1
  code: 40820128 e93c00d0 e9290058 7c292840 40810058 38600000 4bfd9a81 e8410018

Shows that we returned to userspace without restoring the user r13
value, due to executing the partially patched STF exit code.

Fix it by doing the patching under stop machine. The CPUs that aren't
doing the patching will be spinning in the core of the stop machine
logic. That is currently sufficient for our purposes, because none of
the patching we do is to that code or anywhere in the vicinity.

<title>powerpc/32: Fix boot failure with CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR</title>

commit f5668260b872e89b8d3942a8b7d4278aa9c2c981 upstream.

Commit 7c95d8893fb5 ("powerpc: Change calling convention for
create_branch() et. al.") complexified the frame of function
do_feature_fixups(), leading to GCC setting up a stack
guard when CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR is selected.

The problem is that do_feature_fixups() is called very early
while 'current' in r2 is not set up yet and the code is still
not at the final address used at link time.

So, like other instrumentation, stack protection needs to be
deactivated for feature-fixups.c and code-patching.c

<title>powerpc/sstep: Fix VSX instruction emulation</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit af99da74333b ("powerpc/sstep: Support VSX vector paired storage
access instructions") added loading and storing 32 word long data into
adjacent VSRs. However the calculation used to determine if two VSRs
needed to be loaded/stored inadvertently prevented the load/storing
taking place for instructions with a data length less than 16 words.

This causes the emulation to not function correctly, which can be seen
by the alignment_handler selftest:

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - A large series adding wrappers for our interrupt handlers, so that
   irq/nmi/user tracking can be isolated in the wrappers rather than
   spread in each handler.

 - Conversion of the 32-bit syscall handling into C.

 - A series from Nick to streamline our TLB flushing when using the
   Radix MMU.

 - Switch to using queued spinlocks by default for 64-bit server CPUs.

 - A rework of our PCI probing so that it happens later in boot, when
   more generic infrastructure is available.

 - Two small fixes to allow 32-bit little-endian processes to run on
   64-bit kernels.

 - Other smaller features, fixes &amp; cleanups.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - A large series adding wrappers for our interrupt handlers, so that
   irq/nmi/user tracking can be isolated in the wrappers rather than
   spread in each handler.

 - Conversion of the 32-bit syscall handling into C.

 - A series from Nick to streamline our TLB flushing when using the
   Radix MMU.

 - Switch to using queued spinlocks by default for 64-bit server CPUs.

 - A rework of our PCI probing so that it happens later in boot, when
   more generic infrastructure is available.

 - Two small fixes to allow 32-bit little-endian processes to run on
   64-bit kernels.

 - Other smaller features, fixes &amp; cleanups.

<title>kbuild: LD_VERSION redenomination</title>

Commit ccbef1674a15 ("Kbuild, lto: add ld-version and ld-ifversion
macros") introduced scripts/ld-version.sh for GCC LTO.

At that time, this script handled 5 version fields because GCC LTO
needed the downstream binutils. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)

The code snippet from the submitted patch was as follows:

    # We need HJ Lu's Linux binutils because mainline binutils does not
    # support mixing assembler and LTO code in the same ld -r object.
    # XXX check if the gcc plugin ld is the expected one too
    # XXX some Fedora binutils should also support it. How to check for that?
    ifeq ($(call ld-ifversion,-ge,22710001,y),y)
        ...

However, GCC LTO was not merged into the mainline after all.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)

So, the 4th and 5th fields were never used, and finally removed by
commit 0d61ed17dd30 ("ld-version: Drop the 4th and 5th version
components").

Since then, the last 4-digits returned by this script is always zeros.

Remove the meaningless last 4-digits. This makes the version format
consistent with GCC_VERSION, CLANG_VERSION, LLD_VERSION.

Commit 8813ff49607e ("powerpc/sstep: Check instruction validity
against ISA version before emulation") introduced a proper way to skip
unknown instructions. This makes sure that the same is used for the
darn instruction when the range selection bits have a reserved value.

<title>powerpc/sstep: Fix load-store and update emulation</title>

<id>bbda4b6c7d7c7f79da71f95c92a5d76be22c3efd</id>
<content type='text'>
The Power ISA says that the fixed-point load and update instructions
must neither use R0 for the base address (RA) nor have the
destination (RT) and the base address (RA) as the same register.
Similarly, for fixed-point stores and floating-point loads and stores,
the instruction is invalid when R0 is used as the base address (RA).

This is applicable to the following instructions.
  * Load Byte and Zero with Update (lbzu)
  * Load Byte and Zero with Update Indexed (lbzux)
  * Load Halfword and Zero with Update (lhzu)
  * Load Halfword and Zero with Update Indexed (lhzux)
  * Load Halfword Algebraic with Update (lhau)
  * Load Halfword Algebraic with Update Indexed (lhaux)
  * Load Word and Zero with Update (lwzu)
  * Load Word and Zero with Update Indexed (lwzux)
  * Load Word Algebraic with Update Indexed (lwaux)
  * Load Doubleword with Update (ldu)
  * Load Doubleword with Update Indexed (ldux)
  * Load Floating Single with Update (lfsu)
  * Load Floating Single with Update Indexed (lfsux)
  * Load Floating Double with Update (lfdu)
  * Load Floating Double with Update Indexed (lfdux)
  * Store Byte with Update (stbu)
  * Store Byte with Update Indexed (stbux)
  * Store Halfword with Update (sthu)
  * Store Halfword with Update Indexed (sthux)
  * Store Word with Update (stwu)
  * Store Word with Update Indexed (stwux)
  * Store Doubleword with Update (stdu)
  * Store Doubleword with Update Indexed (stdux)
  * Store Floating Single with Update (stfsu)
  * Store Floating Single with Update Indexed (stfsux)
  * Store Floating Double with Update (stfdu)
  * Store Floating Double with Update Indexed (stfdux)

E.g. the following behaviour is observed for an invalid load and
update instruction having RA = RT.

While a userspace program having an instruction word like 0xe9ce0001,
i.e. ldu r14, 0(r14), runs without getting receiving a SIGILL on a
Power system (observed on P8 and P9), the outcome of executing that
instruction word varies and its behaviour can be considered to be
undefined.

Attaching an uprobe at that instruction's address results in emulation
which currently performs the load as well as writes the effective
address back to the base register. This might not match the outcome
from hardware.

To remove any inconsistencies, this adds additional checks for the
aforementioned instructions to make sure that the emulation
infrastructure treats them as unknown. The kernel can then fallback to
executing such instructions on hardware.

Compiling kernel with -Warray-bounds throws below warning:

  In function 'emulate_vsx_store':
  warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
  buf.d[2] = byterev_8(reg-&gt;d[1]);
  ~~~~~^~~
  buf.d[3] = byterev_8(reg-&gt;d[0]);
  ~~~~~^~~

Fix it by using temporary array variable 'union vsx_reg buf32[]' in
that code block. Also, with element_size = 32, 'union vsx_reg *reg'
is an array of size 2. So, use 'reg' as an array instead of pointer
in the same code block.
