arm64: Treat ESR_ELx as a 64-bit register

2022-04-29T18:26:27Z

In the initial release of the ARM Architecture Reference Manual for ARMv8-A, the ESR_ELx registers were defined as 32-bit registers. This changed in 2018 with version D.a (ARM DDI 0487D.a) of the architecture, when they became 64-bit registers, with bits [63:32] defined as RES0. In version G.a, a new field was added to ESR_ELx, ISS2, which covers bits [36:32]. This field is used when the Armv8.7 extension FEAT_LS64 is implemented. As a result of the evolution of the register width, Linux stores it as both a 64-bit value and a 32-bit value, which hasn't affected correctness so far as Linux only uses the lower 32 bits of the register. Make the register type consistent and always treat it as 64-bit wide. The register is redefined as an "unsigned long", which is an unsigned double-word (64-bit quantity) for the LP64 machine (aapcs64 [1], Table 1, page 14). The type was chosen because "unsigned int" is the most frequent type for ESR_ELx and because FAR_ELx, which is used together with ESR_ELx in exception handling, is also declared as "unsigned long". The 64-bit type also makes adding support for architectural features that use fields above bit 31 easier in the future. The KVM hypervisor will receive a similar update in a subsequent patch.

arm64: move AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT into insn-def.h

2022-02-22T21:25:48Z

If CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS is off, encoders for LSE-related instructions can return AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT directly in insn.h. In order to access AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT in insn.h, we can not include debug-monitors.h in insn.h, because debug-monitors.h has already depends on insn.h, so just move AARCH64_BREAK_FAULT into insn-def.h. It will be used by the following patch to eliminate unnecessary LSE-related encoders when CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS is off.

arm64: kprobes: Use BRK instead of single-step when executing instructions out-of-line

2020-11-03T14:03:38Z

Commit 36dadef23fcc ("kprobes: Init kprobes in early_initcall") enabled using kprobes from early_initcall. Unfortunately at this point the hardware debug infrastructure is not operational. The OS lock may still be locked, and the hardware watchpoints may have unknown values when kprobe enables debug monitors to single-step instructions. Rather than using hardware single-step, append a BRK instruction after the instruction to be executed out-of-line.

arm64: ptrace: Override SPSR.SS when single-stepping is enabled

2020-07-16T10:41:21Z

Luis reports that, when reverse debugging with GDB, single-step does not function as expected on arm64: | I've noticed, under very specific conditions, that a PTRACE_SINGLESTEP | request by GDB won't execute the underlying instruction. As a consequence, | the PC doesn't move, but we return a SIGTRAP just like we would for a | regular successful PTRACE_SINGLESTEP request. The underlying problem is that when the CPU register state is restored as part of a reverse step, the SPSR.SS bit is cleared and so the hardware single-step state can transition to the "active-pending" state, causing an unexpected step exception to be taken immediately if a step operation is attempted. In hindsight, we probably shouldn't have exposed SPSR.SS in the pstate accessible by the GPR regset, but it's a bit late for that now. Instead, simply prevent userspace from configuring the bit to a value which is inconsistent with the TIF_SINGLESTEP state for the task being traced.

arm64: Call debug_traps_init() from trap_init() to help early kgdb

2020-05-18T16:51:20Z

A new kgdb feature will soon land (kgdb_earlycon) that lets us run kgdb much earlier. In order for everything to work properly it's important that the break hook is setup by the time we process "kgdbwait". Right now the break hook is setup in debug_traps_init() and that's called from arch_initcall(). That's a bit too late since kgdb_earlycon really needs things to be setup by the time the system calls dbg_late_init(). We could fix this by adding call_break_hook() into early_brk64() and that works fine. However, it's a little ugly. Instead, let's just add a call to debug_traps_init() straight from trap_init(). There's already a documented dependency between trap_init() and debug_traps_init() and this makes the dependency more obvious rather than just relying on a comment. NOTE: this solution isn't early enough to let us select the "ARCH_HAS_EARLY_DEBUG" KConfig option that is introduced by the kgdb_earlycon patch series. That would only be set if we could do breakpoints when early params are parsed. This patch only enables "late early" breakpoints, AKA breakpoints when dbg_late_init() is called. It's expected that this should be fine for most people. It should also be noted that if you crash you can still end up in kgdb earlier than debug_traps_init(). Since you don't need breakpoints to debug a crash that's fine.

arm64: remove pointless KERNEL guards

2019-08-05T10:06:33Z

For a number of years, UAPI headers have been split from kernel-internal headers. The latter are never exposed to userspace, and always built with __KERNEL__ defined. Most headers under arch/arm64 don't have __KERNEL__ guards, but there are a few stragglers lying around. To make things more consistent, and to set a good example going forward, let's remove these redundant __KERNEL__ guards. In a couple of cases, a trailing #endif lacked a comment describing its corresponding #if or #ifdef, so these are fixes up at the same time. Guards in auto-generated crypto code are left as-is, as these guards are generated by scripting imported from the upstream openssl project scripts. Guards in UAPI headers are left as-is, as these can be included by userspace or the kernel. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

arm64: debug: Separate debug hooks based on target exception level

2019-04-09T10:21:13Z

Mixing kernel and user debug hooks together is highly error-prone as it relies on all of the hooks to figure out whether the exception came from kernel or user, and then to act accordingly. Make our debug hook code a little more robust by maintaining separate hook lists for user and kernel, with separate registration functions to force callers to be explicit about the exception levels that they care about.
