Detect if we are returning to usermode via the normal kernel exit paths
but the saved PSR value indicates that we are in kernel mode. This
could occur due to corrupted stack state, which has been observed with
"ftracetest".
This ensures that we catch the problem case before we get to user code.

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"Most of the commits are for defconfig changes, to enable newly added
drivers or features that people have started using. For the changed
lines lines, we have mostly cleanups, the affected platforms are OMAP,
Versatile, EP93xx, Samsung, Broadcom, i.MX, and Actions.
The largest single change is the introduction of the TI "sysc" bus
driver, with the intention of cleaning up more legacy code.
Two new SoC platforms get added this time:
- Allwinner R40 is a modernized version of the A20 chip, now with a
Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A7. According to the manufacturer, it is
intended for "Smart Hardware"
- Broadcom Hurricane 2 (Aka Strataconnect BCM5334X) is a family of
chips meant for managed gigabit ethernet switches, based around a
Cortex-A9 CPU.
Finally, we gain SMP support for two platforms: Renesas R-Car E2 and
Amlogic Meson8/8b, which were previously added but only supported
uniprocessor operation"

Pull ARM fix from Russell King:
"Last ARM fix for 4.14.
This plugs a hole in dump_instr(), which, with certain conditions
satisfied, can dump instructions from kernel space"
* 'fixes' of git://git.armlinux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 8720/1: ensure dump_instr() checks addr_limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
When CONFIG_DEBUG_USER is enabled, it's possible for a user to
deliberately trigger dump_instr() with a chosen kernel address.
Let's avoid problems resulting from this by using get_user() rather than
__get_user(), ensuring that we don't erroneously access kernel memory.
So that we can use the same code to dump user instructions and kernel
instructions, the common dumping code is factored out to __dump_instr(),
with the fs manipulated appropriately in dump_instr() around calls to
this.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

On Amlogic Meson8 / Meson8m2 (both Cortex-A9) and Meson8b (Cortex-A5)
the CPU hotplug code needs to wait until the SCU status of the CPU that
is being taken offline is SCU_PM_POWEROFF.
Provide a utility function (which can be invoked for example from
.cpu_kill()) which allows reading the SCU status of a CPU.
While here, replace the magic number 0x3 with a preprocessor macro
(SCU_CPU_STATUS_MASK) so we don't have to duplicate this magic number in
the new function.

To boot the secondary CPUs on the Amlogic Meson8/Meson8m2 (Cortex-A9)
and Meson8b (Cortex-A5) SoCs we have to enable SCU mode SCU_PM_NORMAL,
otherwise the secondary cores will not start.
This patch adds a scu_cpu_power_enable() function which can be used to
enable SCU_PM_NORMAL for a specific (logical) CPU. An internal helper
function is also created, to avoid code duplication with
scu_power_mode().

Currently, there is assumption in early MPU setup code that kernel
image is located in RAM, which is obviously not true for XIP. To run
code from ROM we need to make sure that it is covered by MPU. However,
due to we allocate regions (semi-)dynamically we can run into issue of
trimming region we are running from in case ROM spawns several MPU
regions. To help deal with that we enforce minimum alignments for start
end end of XIP address space as 1MB and 128Kb correspondingly.

Currently, there are several issues with how MPU is setup:
1. We won't boot if MPU is missing
2. We won't boot if use XIP
3. Further extension of MPU setup requires asm skills
The 1st point can be relaxed, so we can continue with boot CPU even if
MPU is missed and fail boot for secondaries only. To address the 2nd
point we could create region covering CONFIG_XIP_PHYS_ADDR - _end and
that might work for the first stage of MPU enable, but due to MPU's
alignment requirement we could cover too much, IOW we need more
flexibility in how we're partitioning memory regions... and it'd be
hardly possible to archive because of the 3rd point.
This patch is trying to address 1st and 3rd issues and paves the path
for 2nd and further improvements.
The most visible change introduced with this patch is that we start
using mpu_rgn_info array (as it was supposed?), so change in MPU setup
done by boot CPU is recorded there and feed to secondaries. It
allows us to keep minimal region setup for boot CPU and do the rest in
C. Since we start programming MPU regions in C evaluation of MPU
constrains (number of regions supported and minimal region order) can
be done once, which in turn open possibility to free-up "probe"
region early.

If CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y, the kernel log is spammed with a few
hundred identical messages:
unwind: Unknown symbol address c0800300
unwind: Index not found c0800300
c0800300 is the return address from the last subroutine call (to
__memzero()) in __mmap_switched(). Apparently having this address in
the link register confuses the unwinder.
To fix this, reset the link register to zero before jumping to
start_kernel().

With printch() the console messages are sent out one character at a time
which is agonizingly slow especially with semihosting as the whole trap
intercept, remote byte access, and system resume danse is performed for
every single character across a relatively slow remote debug connection.
Let's use printascii() to send a whole string at once. This is also going
to be more efficient, albeit to a quite lesser extent, with serial ports
as well.

This series provides the needed changes to suport the ELF_FDPIC binary
format on ARM. Both MMU and non-MMU systems are supported. This format
has many advantages over the BFLT format used on MMU-less systems, such
as being real ELF that can be parsed by standard tools, can support
shared dynamic libs, etc.

With a kernel containing both DT and atag support, the diagnostics
output when the dtb is missing or corrupt assume that we're trying
to boot using atags and the machine ID, and only print the machine
ID. This is not useful for diagnosing a missing or corrupt dtb.
Move the message into arch/arm/kernel/setup.c, and print the address
of the dtb/atag list, and the first 16 bytes of memory of the dtb or
atag list.
This allows us to see whether the dtb was corrupted in some way,
causing the fallback to the machine ID / atag list.

Disable the generic address limit check in favor of an architecture
specific optimized implementation. The generic implementation using
pending work flags did not work well with ARM and alignment faults.
The address limit is checked on each syscall return path to user-mode
path as well as the irq user-mode return function. If the address limit
was changed, a function is called to report data corruption (stopping
the kernel or process based on configuration).
The address limit check has to be done before any pending work because
they can reset the address limit and the process is killed using a
SIGKILL signal. For example the lkdtm address limit check does not work
because the signal to kill the process will reset the user-mode address
limit.

This reverts commit 73ac5d6a2b6ac3ae8d1e1818f3e9946f97489bc9.
The work pending loop can call set_fs after addr_limit_user_check
removed the _TIF_FSCHECK flag. This may happen at anytime based on how
ARM handles alignment exceptions. It leads to an infinite loop condition.
After discussion, it has been agreed that the generic approach is not
tailored to the ARM architecture and any fix might not be complete. This
patch will be replaced by an architecture specific implementation. The
work flag approach will be kept for other architectures.

The .data segment stored in ROM is only copied to RAM once at boot time
and never referenced afterwards. This is arguably a suboptimal usage of
ROM resources.
This patch allows for compressing the .data segment before storing it
into ROM and decompressing it to RAM rather than simply copying it,
saving on precious ROM space.
Because global data is not available yet (obviously) we must allocate
decompressor workspace memory on the stack. The .bss area is used as a
stack area for that purpose before it is cleared. The required stack
frame is 9568 bytes for __inflate_kernel_data() alone, so make sure
the .bss is large enough to cope with that plus extra room for called
functions or fail the build.
Those numbers were picked arbitrarily based on the above 9568 byte
stack frame:
10240 (2.5 * PAGE_SIZE): used to override -Wframe-larger-than whose
default value is 1024.
12288 (3 * PAGE_SIZE): minimum .bss size to contain the stack.

The XIP linker script has several problems:
- PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA is missing and is likely to end up somewhere with
the wrong LMA.
- BUG_TABLE definitely has the wrong LMA, it is not copied to RAM, and
its VMA is unaccounted for and likely to clash with dynamic memory
usage.
- TCM usage is similarly broken.
- PERCPU_SECTION is left in ROM despite being written to.
Let's use generic macros for those things and locate them appropriately.
Incidentally, those macros are usable with a LMA != VMA already by
properly defining LOAD_OFFSET.
TCM is not fixed here. It never worked in a XIP configuration anyway, so
that can wait until another round of cleanups.

Our .data section is missing PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA() which contains,
amongst other things, the vdso page. This creates a System.map that
looks like this:
c15769a8 D _edata
c1577000 d vdso_data_store
c1578000 D __start___bug_table
c1580544 D __stop___bug_table
c1580544 B __bss_start
By using RW_DATA_SECTION() we pick whatever generic sections might be
added in the future and have page-aligned data next to other strongly
aligned data. Furthermore we now include the entire thing, including the
bug table, in the data accounting surrounded by _sdata/_edata.
While at it let's also remplace the open coded .init.data by its
equivalent INIT_DATA_SECTION().

Let's use optimized routines such as memcpy to copy .data and memzero
to clear .bss in the startup code instead of doing it one word at a
time. Those routines don't use any global data so they're safe to use
even if .data and .bss segments are not initialized.
In the .data copy case a temporary stack is installed in the .bss area
as the actual kernel stack is located within the copied data area. The
XIP kernel linker script ensures a 8 byte alignment for that purpose.
Finally, make the .data copy and related pointers surrounded by
CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL to make it obvious what it is all about. This will
allow for further cleanups in the non-XIP linker script.

Provide the necessary changes to be able to execute ELF-FDPIC binaries
on ARM systems with an MMU.
The default for CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC is also set to n if the regular
ELF loader is already configured so not to force FDPIC support on
everyone. Given that CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF depends on CONFIG_MMU, this means
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC will still default to y when !MMU.

Signal handlers are not direct function pointers but pointers to function
descriptor in that case. Therefore we must retrieve the actual function
address and load the GOT value into r9 from the descriptor before branching
to the actual handler.
If a restorer is provided, we also have to load its address and GOT from
its descriptor. That descriptor address and the code to load it is pushed
onto the stack to be executed as soon as the signal handler returns.
However, to be compatible with NX stacks, the FDPIC bounce code is also
copied to the signal page along with the other code stubs. Therefore this
code must get at the descriptor address whether it executes from the stack
or the signal page. To do so we use the stack pointer which points at the
signal stack frame where the descriptor address was stored. Because the
rt signal frame is different from the simpler frame, two versions of the
bounce code are needed, and two variants (ARM and Thumb) as well. The
asm-offsets facility is used to determine the actual offset in the signal
frame for each version, meaning that struct sigframe and rt_sigframe had
to be moved to a separate file.

The first argument to elf_read_implies_exec() is either the actual
header structure or a pointer to that structure whether one looks
at fs/binfmt_elf.c or fs/binfmt_elf_fdpic.c. This ought to be fixed
of course, but in the mean time let's sidestep the issue by removing
that first argument from arm_elf_read_implies_exec() as it is unused
anyway.

The kernel watchdog is a great debugging tool for finding tasks that
consume a disproportionate amount of CPU time in contiguous chunks. One
can imagine building a similar watchdog for arbitrary driver threads
using save_stack_trace_tsk() and print_stack_trace(). However, this is
not viable for dynamically loaded driver modules on ARM platforms
because save_stack_trace_tsk() is not exported for those architectures.
Export save_stack_trace_tsk() for the ARM architecture to align with
x86 and support various debugging use cases such as arbitrary driver
thread watchdog timers.

Robert Jarzmik reports that his PXA25x system fails to boot with 4.12,
failing at __flush_whole_cache in arch/arm/mm/proc-xscale.S:215:
0xc0019e20 <+0>: ldr r1, [pc, #788]
0xc0019e24 <+4>: ldr r0, [r1] <== here
with r1 containing 0xc06f82cd, which is the address of "clean_addr".
Examination of the System.map shows:
c06f22c8 D user_pmd_table
c06f22cc d __warned.19178
c06f22cd d clean_addr
indicating that a .data.unlikely section has appeared just before the
.data section from proc-xscale.S. According to objdump -h, it appears
that our assembly files default their .data alignment to 2**0, which
is bad news if the preceding .data section size is not power-of-2
aligned at link time.
Add the appropriate .align directives to all assembly files in arch/arm
that are missing them where we require an appropriate alignment.

- More kexec fixes to ensure that the crashkernel region is correctly

ARM: 8687/1: signal: Fix unparseable iwmmxt_sigframe in uc_regspace[]

In kernels with CONFIG_IWMMXT=y running on non-iWMMXt hardware, the
signal frame can be left partially uninitialised in such a way
that userspace cannot parse uc_regspace[] safely. In particular,
this means that the VFP registers cannot be located reliably in the
signal frame when a multi_v7_defconfig kernel is run on the
majority of platforms.
The cause is that the uc_regspace[] is laid out statically based on
the kernel config, but the decision of whether to save/restore the
iWMMXt registers must be a runtime decision.
To minimise breakage of software that may assume a fixed layout,
this patch emits a dummy block of the same size as iwmmxt_sigframe,
for non-iWMMXt threads. However, the magic and size of this block
are now filled in to help parsers skip over it. A new DUMMY_MAGIC
is defined for this purpose.
It is probably legitimate (if non-portable) for userspace to
manufacture its own sigframe for sigreturn, and there is no obvious
reason why userspace should be required to insert a DUMMY_MAGIC
block when running on non-iWMMXt hardware, when omitting it has
worked just fine forever in other configurations. So in this case,
sigreturn does not require this block to be present.
