<title>syscalls: fix compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64 usage</title>

<content type='text'>
Using sys_io_pgetevents() as the entry point for compat mode tasks
works almost correctly, but misses the sign extension for the min_nr
and nr arguments.

This was addressed on parisc by switching to
compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64() in commit 6431e92fc827 ("parisc:
io_pgetevents_time64() needs compat syscall in 32-bit compat mode"),
as well as by using more sophisticated system call wrappers on x86 and
s390. However, arm64, mips, powerpc, sparc and riscv still have the
same bug.

Change all of them over to use compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64()
like parisc already does. This was clearly the intention when the
function was originally added, but it got hooked up incorrectly in
the tables.

<title>KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Prevent UAF in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group()</title>

Al reported a possible use-after-free (UAF) in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group().

It looks up `stt` from tablefd, but then continues to use it after doing
fdput() on the returned fd. After the fdput() the tablefd is free to be
closed by another thread. The close calls kvm_spapr_tce_release() and
then release_spapr_tce_table() (via call_rcu()) which frees `stt`.

Although there are calls to rcu_read_lock() in
kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group() they are not sufficient to prevent
the UAF, because `stt` is used outside the locked regions.

With an artifcial delay after the fdput() and a userspace program which
triggers the race, KASAN detects the UAF:

Fix it by delaying the fdput() until `stt` is no longer in use, which
is effectively the entire function. To keep the patch minimal add a call
to fdput() at each of the existing return paths. Future work can convert
the function to goto or __cleanup style cleanup.

With the fix in place the test case no longer triggers the UAF.

When building a 32-bit kernel, some toolchains do not allow mixing soft
float and hard float object files:

    LD      vmlinux.o
  powerpc64le-unknown-linux-musl-ld: lib/test_fpu_impl.o uses hard float, arch/powerpc/kernel/udbg.o uses soft float
  powerpc64le-unknown-linux-musl-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file lib/test_fpu_impl.o

  make[1]: *** [Makefile:1152: vmlinux_o] Error 2
  make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Error 2

This is not an issue when building a 64-bit kernel. To unbreak the
build, limit ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT to 64-bit kernels. This is okay
because the only real user of this option, amdgpu, was previously
limited to PPC64 anyway; see commit a28e4b672f04 ("drm/amd/display: use

<title>powerpc/uaccess: Use YZ asm constraint for ld</title>

<id>50934945d54238d2d6d8db4b7c1d4c90d2696c57</id>
<content type='text'>
The 'ld' instruction requires a 4-byte aligned displacement because it
is a DS-form instruction. But the "m" asm constraint doesn't enforce
that.

Add a special case of __get_user_asm2_goto() so that the "YZ" constraint
can be used for "ld".

The "Z" constraint is documented in the GCC manual PowerPC machine
constraints, and specifies a "memory operand accessed with indexed or
indirect addressing". "Y" is not documented in the manual but specifies
a "memory operand for a DS-form instruction". Using both allows the
compiler to generate a DS-form "ld" or X-form "ldx" as appropriate.

The change has to be conditional on CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PREFIXED because
the "Y" constraint does not guarantee 4-byte alignment when prefixed
instructions are enabled.

No build errors have been reported due to this, but the possibility is
there depending on compiler code generation decisions.

The 'std' instruction requires a 4-byte aligned displacement because
it is a DS-form instruction, and as the assembler says, 18 is not a
multiple of 4.

A similar error is seen with GCC 13 and CONFIG_UBSAN_SIGNED_WRAP=y.

The fix is to change the constraint on the memory operand to put_user(),
from "m" which is a general memory reference to "YZ".

The "Z" constraint is documented in the GCC manual PowerPC machine
constraints, and specifies a "memory operand accessed with indexed or
indirect addressing". "Y" is not documented in the manual but specifies
a "memory operand for a DS-form instruction". Using both allows the
compiler to generate a DS-form "std" or X-form "stdx" as appropriate.

The change has to be conditional on CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PREFIXED because
the "Y" constraint does not guarantee 4-byte alignment when prefixed
instructions are enabled.

Unfortunately clang doesn't support the "Y" constraint so that has to be
behind an ifdef.

Although the build error is only seen with GCC 13/14, that appears
to just be luck. The constraint has been incorrect since it was first
added.

Building ppc64le_defconfig with GCC 14 fails with assembler errors:

It's not an error or exceptional situation when the hosting
environment does not expose a name for the LP/guest via RTAS or the
device tree. This happens with qemu when run without the '-name'
option. The message also lacks a newline. Remove it.

<title>powerpc/bpf: enforce full ordering for ATOMIC operations with BPF_FETCH</title>
<updated>2024-05-29T12:12:42+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.exis.tech/linux.git/commit/?id=b1e7cee96127468c2483cf10c2899c9b5cf79bf8'/>
<id>b1e7cee96127468c2483cf10c2899c9b5cf79bf8</id>
<content type='text'>
The Linux Kernel Memory Model [1][2] requires RMW operations that have a
return value to be fully ordered.

BPF atomic operations with BPF_FETCH (including BPF_XCHG and
BPF_CMPXCHG) return a value back so they need to be JITed to fully
ordered operations. POWERPC currently emits relaxed operations for
these.

We can show this by running the following litmus-test:

  PPC SB+atomic_add+fetch

  {
      0:r0=x;  (* dst reg assuming offset is 0 *)
      0:r1=2;  (* src reg *)
      0:r2=1;
      0:r4=y;  (* P0 writes to this, P1 reads this *)
      0:r5=z;  (* P1 writes to this, P0 reads this *)
      0:r6=0;

      1:r2=1;
      1:r4=y;
      1:r5=z;
  }

  P0                      | P1            ;
  stw         r2, 0(r4)   | stw  r2,0(r5) ;
                          |               ;
  loop:lwarx  r3, r6, r0  |               ;
  mr          r8, r3      |               ;
  add         r3, r3, r1  | sync          ;
  stwcx.      r3, r6, r0  |               ;
  bne         loop        |               ;
  mr          r1, r8      |               ;
                          |               ;
  lwa         r7, 0(r5)   | lwa  r7,0(r4) ;

  ~exists(0:r7=0 /\ 1:r7=0)

  Witnesses
  Positive: 9 Negative: 3
  Condition ~exists (0:r7=0 /\ 1:r7=0)
  Observation SB+atomic_add+fetch Sometimes 3 9

This test shows that the older store in P0 is reordered with a newer
load to a different address. Although there is a RMW operation with
fetch between them. Adding a sync before and after RMW fixes the issue:

  Witnesses
  Positive: 9 Negative: 0
  Condition ~exists (0:r7=0 /\ 1:r7=0)
  Observation SB+atomic_add+fetch Never 0 9
