Tidy the naming convention for compat syscall subs. Hints which describe
the purpose of the stub go in front and receive a double underscore to
denote that they are generated on-the-fly by the SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.
For the generic case, this means (0xffffffff prefix removed):
810f08d0 t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
<inline> __do_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
810f1aa0 T __se_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long;
# casts them to the declared type)
810f1aa0 T sys_waitid # alias to __se_sys_waitid() (taking
# parameters as declared), to be included
# in syscall table
For x86, the naming is as follows:
810efc70 t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
<inline> __do_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
810efd60 t __se_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long;
# casts them to the declared type)
810f1140 T __ia32_sys_waitid # IA32_EMULATION 32-bit-ptregs -> C stub,
# calls __se_sys_waitid(); to be included
# in syscall table
810f1110 T sys_waitid # x86 64-bit-ptregs -> C stub, calls
# __se_sys_waitid(); to be included in
# syscall table
For x86, sys_waitid() will be re-named to __x64_sys_waitid in a follow-up
patch.

GNU Make automatically deletes intermediate files that are updated
in a chain of pattern rules.
Example 1) %.dtb.o <- %.dtb.S <- %.dtb <- %.dts
Example 2) %.o <- %.c <- %.c_shipped
A couple of makefiles mark such targets as .PRECIOUS to prevent Make
from deleting them, but the correct way is to use .SECONDARY.
.SECONDARY
Prerequisites of this special target are treated as intermediate
files but are never automatically deleted.
.PRECIOUS
When make is interrupted during execution, it may delete the target
file it is updating if the file was modified since make started.
If you mark the file as precious, make will never delete the file
if interrupted.
Both can avoid deletion of intermediate files, but the difference is
the behavior when Make is interrupted; .SECONDARY deletes the target,
but .PRECIOUS does not.
The use of .PRECIOUS is relatively rare since we do not want to keep
partially constructed (possibly corrupted) targets.
Another difference is that .PRECIOUS works with pattern rules whereas
.SECONDARY does not.
.PRECIOUS: $(obj)/%.lex.c
works, but
.SECONDARY: $(obj)/%.lex.c
has no effect. However, for the reason above, I do not want to use
.PRECIOUS which could cause obscure build breakage.
The targets specified as .SECONDARY must be explicit. $(targets)
contains all targets that need to include .*.cmd files. So, the
intermediates you want to keep are mostly in there. Therefore, mark
$(targets) as .SECONDARY. It means primary targets are also marked
as .SECONDARY, but I do not see any drawback for this.
I replaced some .SECONDARY / .PRECIOUS markers with 'targets'. This
will make Kbuild search for non-existing .*.cmd files, but this is
not a noticeable performance issue.

To reduce the chance that random user space content leaks down the call
chain in registers, also clear lower registers on syscall entry:
For 64-bit syscalls, extend the register clearing in PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS
to %dx and %cx. This should not hurt at all, also on the other callers
of that macro. We do not need to clear %rdi and %rsi for syscall entry,
as those registers are used to pass the parameters to do_syscall_64().
For the 32-bit compat syscalls, do_int80_syscall_32() and
do_fast_syscall_32() each only take one parameter. Therefore, extend the
register clearing to %dx, %cx, and %si in entry_SYSCALL_compat and
entry_INT80_compat.

and x32
Extend ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER for i386 emulation and for x32 on 64-bit
x86.
For x32, all we need to do is to create an additional stub for each
compat syscall which decodes the parameters in x86-64 ordering, e.g.:
asmlinkage long __compat_sys_x32_xyzzy(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return c_SyS_xyzzy(regs->di, regs->si, regs->dx);
}
For i386 emulation, we need to teach compat_sys_*() to take struct
pt_regs as its only argument, e.g.:
asmlinkage long __compat_sys_ia32_xyzzy(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return c_SyS_xyzzy(regs->bx, regs->cx, regs->dx);
}
In addition, we need to create additional stubs for common syscalls
(that is, for syscalls which have the same parameters on 32-bit and
64-bit), e.g.:
asmlinkage long __sys_ia32_xyzzy(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return c_sys_xyzzy(regs->bx, regs->cx, regs->dx);
}
This approach avoids leaking random user-provided register content down
the call chain.

64-bit syscalls
Let's make use of ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y on pure 64-bit x86-64 systems:
Each syscall defines a stub which takes struct pt_regs as its only
argument. It decodes just those parameters it needs, e.g:
asmlinkage long sys_xyzzy(const struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return SyS_xyzzy(regs->di, regs->si, regs->dx);
}
This approach avoids leaking random user-provided register content down
the call chain.
For example, for sys_recv() which is a 4-parameter syscall, the assembly
now is (in slightly reordered fashion):
<sys_recv>:
callq <__fentry__>
/* decode regs->di, ->si, ->dx and ->r10 */
mov 0x70(%rdi),%rdi
mov 0x68(%rdi),%rsi
mov 0x60(%rdi),%rdx
mov 0x38(%rdi),%rcx
[ SyS_recv() is automatically inlined by the compiler,
as it is not [yet] used anywhere else ]
/* clear %r9 and %r8, the 5th and 6th args */
xor %r9d,%r9d
xor %r8d,%r8d
/* do the actual work */
callq __sys_recvfrom
/* cleanup and return */
cltq
retq
The only valid place in an x86-64 kernel which rightfully calls
a syscall function on its own -- vsyscall -- needs to be modified
to pass struct pt_regs onwards as well.
To keep the syscall table generation working independent of
SYSCALL_PTREGS being enabled, the stubs are named the same as the
"original" syscall stubs, i.e. sys_*().
This patch is based on an original proof-of-concept

Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.
At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.
Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.
This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"

Furthermore, we don't allow kprobes in places that have usergs while

Since Linux v3.2, vsyscalls have been deprecated and slow. From v3.2
on, Linux had three vsyscall modes: "native", "emulate", and "none".
"emulate" is the default. All known user programs work correctly in
emulate mode, but vsyscalls turn into page faults and are emulated.
This is very slow. In "native" mode, the vsyscall page is easily
usable as an exploit gadget, but vsyscalls are a bit faster -- they
turn into normal syscalls. (This is in contrast to vDSO functions,
which can be much faster than syscalls.) In "none" mode, there are
no vsyscalls.
For all practical purposes, "native" was really just a chicken bit
in case something went wrong with the emulation. It's been over six
years, and nothing has gone wrong. Delete it.

The 2016 version of Hyper-V offers the option to operate the guest VM
per-vcpu stimer's in Direct Mode, which means the timer interupts on its
own vector rather than queueing a VMbus message. Direct Mode reduces
timer processing overhead in both the hypervisor and the guest, and
avoids having timer interrupts pollute the VMbus interrupt stream for
the synthetic NIC and storage. This patch enables Direct Mode by
default on stimer0 when running on a version of Hyper-V that supports
it.
In prep for coming support of Hyper-V on ARM64, the arch independent

Omitting suffixes from instructions in AT&T mode is bad practice when
operand size cannot be determined by the assembler from register
operands, and is likely going to be warned about by upstream gas in the
future (mine does already). Add the single missing suffix here.

On 64-bit, the stack pointer is always aligned on interrupt, so instead
of setting the LSB of the pt_regs address, we can just add 1 to it.

We can also move the CLD, SWAPGS, and the switch_to_thread_stack() call
to the interrupt_entry() helper function. As we do not want call depths
of two, convert switch_to_thread_stack() to a macro.
However, switch_to_thread_stack() has another user in entry_64_compat.S,
which currently expects it to be a function. To keep the code changes
in this patch minimal, create a wrapper function.
The switch to a macro means that there is some binary code duplication
if CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y is enabled. Therefore, the size reduction
differs whether CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION is enabled or not:
CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y (-0.13k):
text data bss dec hex filename
17158 0 0 17158 4306 entry_64.o-orig

Moving the switch to IRQ stack from the interrupt macro to the helper
function requires some trickery: All ENTER_IRQ_STACK really cares about
is where the "original" stack -- meaning the GP registers etc. -- is
stored. Therefore, we need to offset the stored RSP value by 8 whenever
ENTER_IRQ_STACK is called from within a function. In such cases, and
after switching to the IRQ stack, we need to push the "original" return
address (i.e. the return address from the call to the interrupt entry
function) to the IRQ stack.
This trickery allows us to carve another .85k from the text size (it
would be more except for the additional unwind hints):
text data bss dec hex filename

By this point we have functioning boot-time switching between 4- and

The patch tries to fix the performance regression by using
cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_LA57) instead of pgtable_l5_enabled in
all hot code paths. These will statically patch the target code for
additional performance.

Unfortunately, this approach doesn't help with text size:
vmlinux.before .text size: 8190319
vmlinux.after .text size: 8200623
The .text section is increased by about 4k. Not sure if we can do anything
about this.

This reverts commit 1dde7415e99933bb7293d6b2843752cbdb43ec11. By putting
the RSB filling out of line and calling it, we waste one RSB slot for
returning from the function itself, which means one fewer actual function
call we can make if we're doing the Skylake abomination of call-depth
counting.
It also changed the number of RSB stuffings we do on vmexit from 32,
which was correct, to 16. Let's just stop with the bikeshedding; it
didn't actually *fix* anything anyway.

On some x86 CPU microarchitectures using 'xorq' to clear general-purpose
registers is slower than 'xorl'. As 'xorl' is sufficient to clear all
64 bits of these registers due to zero-extension [*], switch the x86
64-bit entry code to use 'xorl'.
No change in functionality and no change in code size.
[*] According to Intel 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's
Manual, section 3.4.1.1, the result of 32-bit operands are "zero-
extended to a 64-bit result in the destination general-purpose
register." The AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual Volume 3,
Appendix B.1, describes the same behaviour.

Josh Poimboeuf noticed the following bug:
"The paranoid exit code only restores the saved CR3 when it switches back
to the user GS. However, even in the kernel GS case, it's possible that
it needs to restore a user CR3, if for example, the paranoid exception
occurred in the syscall exit path between SWITCH_TO_USER_CR3_STACK and
SWAPGS."
Josh also confirmed via targeted testing that it's possible to hit this bug.
Fix the bug by also restoring CR3 in the paranoid_exit_no_swapgs branch.
The reason we haven't seen this bug reported by users yet is probably because
"paranoid" entry points are limited to the following cases:
idtentry double_fault do_double_fault has_error_code=1 paranoid=2
idtentry debug do_debug has_error_code=0 paranoid=1 shift_ist=DEBUG_STACK
idtentry int3 do_int3 has_error_code=0 paranoid=1 shift_ist=DEBUG_STACK
idtentry machine_check do_mce has_error_code=0 paranoid=1
Amongst those entry points only machine_check is one that will interrupt an
IRQS-off critical section asynchronously - and machine check events are rare.
The other main asynchronous entries are NMI entries, which can be very high-freq
with perf profiling, but they are special: they don't use the 'idtentry' macro but
are open coded and restore user CR3 unconditionally so don't have this bug.

With the following commit:
f09d160992d1 ("x86/entry/64: Get rid of the ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK and SAVE_AND_CLEAR_REGS macros")
... one of my suggested improvements triggered a frame pointer warning:
arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o: warning: objtool: paranoid_entry()+0x11: call without frame pointer save/setup
The warning is correct for the build-time code, but it's actually not
relevant at runtime because of paravirt patching. The paravirt swapgs
call gets replaced with either a SWAPGS instruction or NOPs at runtime.
Go back to the previous behavior by removing the ELF function annotation
for paranoid_entry() and adding an unwind hint, which effectively
silences the warning.

SAVE_AND_CLEAR_REGS macros
Previously, error_entry() and paranoid_entry() saved the GP registers
onto stack space previously allocated by its callers. Combine these two
steps in the callers, and use the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro
for that.
This adds a significant amount ot text size. However, Ingo Molnar points
out that:
"these numbers also _very_ significantly over-represent the
extra footprint. The assumptions that resulted in
us compressing the IRQ entry code have changed very
significantly with the new x86 IRQ allocation code we
introduced in the last year:
- IRQ vectors are usually populated in tightly clustered
groups.
With our new vector allocator code the typical per CPU
allocation percentage on x86 systems is ~3 device vectors
and ~10 fixed vectors out of ~220 vectors - i.e. a very
low ~6% utilization (!). [...]
The days where we allocated a lot of vectors on every
CPU and the compression of the IRQ entry code text
mattered are over.
- Another issue is that only a small minority of vectors
is frequent enough to actually matter to cache utilization
in practice: 3-4 key IPIs and 1-2 device IRQs at most - and
those vectors tend to be tightly clustered as well into about
two groups, and are probably already on 2-3 cache lines in
practice.
For the common case of 'cache cold' IRQs it's the depth of
the call chain and the fragmentation of the resulting I$
that should be the main performance limit - not the overall
size of it.
- The CPU side cost of IRQ delivery is still very expensive
even in the best, most cached case, as in 'over a thousand
cycles'. So much stuff is done that maybe contemporary x86
IRQ entry microcode already prefetches the IDT entry and its
expected call target address."[*]

The "testb $3, CS(%rsp)" instruction in the idtentry macro does not need
modification. Previously, %rsp was manually decreased by 15*8; with
this patch, %rsp is decreased by 15 pushq instructions.

entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() and nmi() can be converted to use
PUSH_AND_CLEAN_REGS instead of opencoded variants thereof. Due to
the interleaving, the additional XOR-based clearing of R8 and R9
in entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() should not have any noticeable
negative implications.

Those instances where ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK is called just before
SAVE_AND_CLEAR_REGS can trivially be replaced by PUSH_AND_CLEAN_REGS.
This macro uses PUSH instead of MOV and should therefore be faster, at
least on newer CPUs.

Same as is done for syscalls, interleave XOR with PUSH instructions
for exceptions/interrupts, in order to minimize the cost of the
additional instructions required for register clearing.

POP_REGS macro
The two special, opencoded cases for POP_C_REGS can be handled by ASM
