We have seen many crashes on powerpc hosts while loading bpf programs.

The problem here is that bpf_int_jit_compile() does a first pass
to compute the program length.

Then it allocates memory to store the generated program and
calls bpf_jit_build_body() a second time (and a third time
later)

What I have observed is that the second bpf_jit_build_body()
could end up using few more words than expected.

If bpf_jit_binary_alloc() put the space for the program
at the end of the allocated page, we then write on
a non mapped memory.

It appears that bpf_jit_emit_tail_call() calls
bpf_jit_emit_common_epilogue() while ctx-&gt;seen might not
be stable.

Only after the second pass we can be sure ctx-&gt;seen wont be changed.

Trying to avoid a second pass seems quite complex and probably
not worth it.

====================
pull-request: bpf 2019-03-16

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Fix a umem memory leak on cleanup in AF_XDP, from Björn.

2) Fix BTF to properly resolve forward-declared enums into their corresponding
   full enum definition types during deduplication, from Andrii.

3) Fix libbpf to reject invalid flags in xsk_socket__create(), from Magnus.

4) Fix accessing invalid pointer returned from bpf_tcp_sock() and
   bpf_sk_fullsock() after bpf_sk_release() was called, from Martin.

5) Fix generation of load/store DW instructions in PPC JIT, from Naveen.

6) Various fixes in BPF helper function documentation in bpf.h UAPI header
   used to bpf-helpers(7) man page, from Quentin.

7) Fix segfault in BPF test_progs when prog loading failed, from Yonghong.

Yauheni Kaliuta pointed out that PTR_TO_STACK store/load verifier test
was failing on powerpc64 BE, and rightfully indicated that the PPC_LD()
macro is not masking away the last two bits of the offset per the ISA,
resulting in the generation of 'lwa' instruction instead of the intended
'ld' instruction.

Segher also pointed out that we can't simply mask away the last two bits
as that will result in loading/storing from/to a memory location that
was not intended.

This patch addresses this by using ldx/stdx if the offset is not
word-aligned. We load the offset into a temporary register (TMP_REG_2)
and use that as the index register in a subsequent ldx/stdx. We fix
PPC_LD() macro to mask off the last two bits, but enhance PPC_BPF_LL()
and PPC_BPF_STL() to factor in the offset value and generate the proper
instruction sequence. We also convert all existing users of PPC_LD() and
PPC_STD() to use these macros. All existing uses of these macros have
been audited to ensure that TMP_REG_2 can be clobbered.

   - A big series from Christoph reworking our DMA code to use more of
     the generic infrastructure, as he said:
       "This series switches the powerpc port to use the generic swiotlb
        and noncoherent dma ops, and to use more generic code for the
        coherent direct mapping, as well as removing a lot of dead
        code."

   - Increase our vmalloc space to 512T with the Hash MMU on modern
     CPUs, allowing us to support machines with larger amounts of total
     RAM or distance between nodes.

   - Two series from Christophe, one to optimise TLB miss handlers on
     6xx, and another to optimise the way STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is
     implemented on some 32-bit CPUs.

   - Support for KCOV coverage instrumentation which means we can run
     syzkaller and discover even more bugs in our code.

  And as always many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

<title>powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK</title>

This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which
moves the thread_info into task_struct.

Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages:
  - It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack
    overflows.
  - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked,
    making a number of attacks more difficult.

This has the following consequences:
  - thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct.
  - The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when
    CONFIG_SMP is active.
  - thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field.

This patch:
  - Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes.
  - Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current.
  - Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
  - Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get -&gt;cpu from current without
    including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without
    including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication
    between ASM constants and C constants.
  - Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer
    argument.
