x86/alternative: Use .ibt_endbr_seal to seal indirect calls

2022-03-15T09:32:47Z

Objtool's --ibt option generates .ibt_endbr_seal which lists superfluous ENDBR instructions. That is those instructions for which the function is never indirectly called. Overwrite these ENDBR instructions with a NOP4 such that these function can never be indirect called, reducing the number of viable ENDBR targets in the kernel.

um: Add devicetree support

2021-12-22T19:35:01Z

Add a dtb= option to boot UML with a devicetree blob. This can be used for testing driver code using UML. Signed-off-by: Vincent Whitchurch [rw: Add dependency on CONFIG_OF] Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

x86/alternative: Implement .retpoline_sites support

2021-10-28T21:25:27Z

Rewrite retpoline thunk call sites to be indirect calls for spectre_v2=off. This ensures spectre_v2=off is as near to a RETPOLINE=n build as possible. This is the replacement for objtool writing alternative entries to ensure the same and achieves feature-parity with the previous approach. One noteworthy feature is that it relies on the thunks to be in machine order to compute the register index. Specifically, this does not yet address the Jcc __x86_indirect_thunk_* calls generated by clang, a future patch will add this.

kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers

2021-07-01T18:06:04Z

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and oops helpers. There are several purposes of doing this: - dropping dependency in bug.h - dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h - unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

um: Add support for host CPU flags and alignment

2021-06-17T20:01:26Z

1. Reflect host cpu flags into the UML instance so they can be used to select the correct implementations for xor, crypto, etc. 2. Reflect host cache alignment into UML instance. This is important when running 32 bit on a 64 bit host as 32 bit by default aligns to 32 while the actual alignment should be 64. Ditto for some Xeons which align at 128.

um: remove process stub VMA

2021-02-12T20:37:38Z

This mostly reverts the old commit 3963333fe676 ("uml: cover stubs with a VMA") which had added a VMA to the existing PTEs. However, there's no real reason to have the PTEs in the first place and the VMA cannot be 'fixed' in place, which leads to bugs that userspace could try to unmap them and be forcefully killed, or such. Also, there's a bit of an ugly hole in userspace's address space. Simplify all this: just install the stub code/page at the top of the (inner) address space, i.e. put it just above TASK_SIZE. The pages are simply hard-coded to be mapped in the userspace process we use to implement an mm context, and they're out of reach of the inner mmap/munmap/mprotect etc. since they're above TASK_SIZE. Getting rid of the VMA also makes vma_merge() no longer hit one of the VM_WARN_ON()s there because we installed a VMA while the code assumes the stack VMA is the first one. It also removes a lockdep warning about mmap_sem usage since we no longer have uml_setup_stubs() and thus no longer need to do any manipulation that would require mmap_sem in activate_mm().

um: stdio_console: Make preferred console

2021-01-26T21:11:37Z

The addition of the "ttynull" console driver did break the ordering of the UML stdio console driver. The UML stdio console driver is added in late_initcall (7), whereby the ttynull driver is added in device_initcall (6), which always does make the ttynull driver the default console. Fix it by explicitly adding the UML stdio console as the preferred console, in case no 'console=' command line option was specified. Signed-off-by: Thomas Meyer Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

um: Fix build w/o CONFIG_PM_SLEEP

2020-12-14T20:15:32Z

uml_pm_wake() is unconditionally called from the SIGUSR1 wakeup handler since that's in the userspace portion of UML, and thus a bit tricky to ifdef out. Since pm_system_wakeup() can always be called (but may be an empty inline), also simply always have uml_pm_wake() to fix the build.
