selftests/rseq: Change type of rseq_offset to ptrdiff_t

2022-02-11T22:30:08Z

Just before the 2.35 release of glibc, the __rseq_offset userspace ABI was changed from int to ptrdiff_t. Adapt to this change in the kernel selftests. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2022-February/136024.html

selftests/rseq: Uplift rseq selftests for compatibility with glibc-2.35

2022-02-02T12:11:35Z

glibc-2.35 (upcoming release date 2022-02-01) exposes the rseq per-thread data in the TCB, accessible at an offset from the thread pointer, rather than through an actual Thread-Local Storage (TLS) variable, as the Linux kernel selftests initially expected. The __rseq_abi TLS and glibc-2.35's ABI for per-thread data cannot actively coexist in a process, because the kernel supports only a single rseq registration per thread. Here is the scheme introduced to ensure selftests can work both with an older glibc and with glibc-2.35+: - librseq exposes its own "rseq_offset, rseq_size, rseq_flags" ABI. - librseq queries for glibc rseq ABI (__rseq_offset, __rseq_size, __rseq_flags) using dlsym() in a librseq library constructor. If those are found, copy their values into rseq_offset, rseq_size, and rseq_flags. - Else, if those glibc symbols are not found, handle rseq registration from librseq and use its own IE-model TLS to implement the rseq ABI per-thread storage.

selftests/rseq: Remove volatile from __rseq_abi

2022-02-02T12:11:34Z

This is done in preparation for the selftest uplift to become compatible with glibc-2.35. All accesses to the __rseq_abi fields are volatile, but remove the volatile from the TLS variable declaration, otherwise we are stuck with volatile for the upcoming rseq_get_abi() helper.

selftests/rseq: introduce own copy of rseq uapi header

2022-02-02T12:11:33Z

The Linux kernel rseq uapi header has a broken layout for the rseq_cs.ptr field on 32-bit little endian architectures. The entire rseq_cs.ptr field is planned for removal, leaving only the 64-bit rseq_cs.ptr64 field available. Both glibc and librseq use their own copy of the Linux kernel uapi header, where they introduce proper union fields to access to the 32-bit low order bits of the rseq_cs pointer on 32-bit architectures. Introduce a copy of the Linux kernel uapi headers in the Linux kernel selftests.

selftests/rseq: remove ARRAY_SIZE define from individual tests

2021-12-11T00:51:03Z

ARRAY_SIZE is defined in several selftests. Remove definitions from individual test files and include header file for the define instead. ARRAY_SIZE define is added in a separate patch to prepare for this change. Remove ARRAY_SIZE from rseq tests and pickup the one defined in kselftest.h. Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

rseq/selftests: Use __rseq_handled symbol to coexist with glibc

2019-05-07T21:31:46Z

In order to integrate rseq into user-space applications, expose a __rseq_handled symbol so many rseq users can be linked into the same application (e.g. librseq and glibc). The __rseq_refcount TLS variable is static to the librseq library. It ensures that rseq syscall registration/unregistration happens only for the most early/late caller to rseq_{,un}register_current_thread for each thread, thus ensuring that rseq is registered across the lifetime of all rseq users for a given thread.

rseq/selftests: Provide rseq library

2018-06-06T09:58:34Z

This rseq helper library provides a user-space API to the rseq() system call. The rseq fast-path exposes the instruction pointer addresses where the rseq assembly blocks begin and end, as well as the associated abort instruction pointer, in the __rseq_table section. This section allows debuggers may know where to place breakpoints when single-stepping through assembly blocks which may be aborted at any point by the kernel.
