<id>urn:sha1:454ede3f1424c36bc124f8d7ed4b3ea654654be1</id>
<content type='text'>
Historically the uaccess code pre-initializes the result of get_user()
(and now also __get_kernel_nofault()) to zero and uses the result as
input parameter for inline assemblies. This is different to what most,
if not all, other architectures are doing, which set the result to
zero within the exception handler in case of a fault.

Use the new extable mechanism and handle zeroing of the result within
the exception handler in case of a fault.

<content type='text'>
Machine generations up to z9 (released in May 2006) have been officially
out of service for several years now (z9 end of service - January 31, 2019).
No distributions build kernels supporting those old machine generations
anymore, except Debian, which seems to pick the oldest supported
generation. The team supporting Debian on s390 has been notified about
the change.

Raising minimum supported machine generation to z10 helps to reduce
maintenance cost and effectively remove code, which is not getting
enough testing coverage due to lack of older hardware and distributions
support. Besides that this unblocks some optimization opportunities and
allows to use wider instruction set in asm files for future features
implementation. Due to this change spectre mitigation and usercopy
implementations could be drastically simplified and many newer instructions
could be converted from ".insn" encoding to instruction names.

Add copy_from/to_user_key functions, which perform storage key checking.
These functions can be used by KVM for emulating instructions that need
to be key checked.
These functions differ from their non _key counterparts in
include/linux/uaccess.h only in the additional key argument and must be
kept in sync with those.

Since the existing uaccess implementation on s390 makes use of move
instructions that support having an additional access key supplied,
we can implement raw_copy_from/to_user_key by enhancing the
existing implementation.

<title>s390/extable: add dedicated uaccess handler</title>

<id>urn:sha1:484a8ed8b7d145ff38889e4598a4804e9d7e8ca6</id>
<content type='text'>
This is more or less a combination of commit 2e77a62cb3a6 ("arm64:
extable: add a dedicated uaccess handler") and commit 4b5305decc84
("x86/extable: Extend extable functionality").

To describe the problem that needs to solved let's cite the full arm64
commit message:

------
For inline assembly, we place exception fixups out-of-line in the
`.fixup` section such that these are out of the way of the fast path.
This has a few drawbacks:

* Since the fixup code is anonymous, backtraces will symbolize fixups
  as offsets from the nearest prior symbol, currently
  `__entry_tramp_text_end`. This is confusing, and painful to debug
  without access to the relevant vmlinux.

* Since the exception handler adjusts the PC to execute the fixup, and
  the fixup uses a direct branch back into the function it fixes,
  backtraces of fixups miss the original function. This is confusing,
  and violates requirements for RELIABLE_STACKTRACE (and therefore
  LIVEPATCH).

* Inline assembly and associated fixups are generated from templates,
  and we have many copies of logically identical fixups which only
  differ in which specific registers are written to and which address
  is branched to at the end of the fixup. This is potentially wasteful
  of I-cache resources, and makes it hard to add additional logic to
  fixups without significant bloat.

This patch address all three concerns for inline uaccess fixups by
adding a dedicated exception handler which updates registers in
exception context and subsequent returns back into the function which
faulted, removing the need for fixups specialized to each faulting
instruction.

Other than backtracing, there should be no functional change as a result
of this patch.

Follow arm64 and riscv and move the EX_TABLE define to asm-extable.h
which is a lot less generic than the current linkage.h.

Also make sure that all files which contain EX_TABLE usages actually
include the new header file. This should make sure that the files
always compile and there won't be any random compile breakage due to
other header file dependencies.
