Clean uncompressed kernel .bss section in the startup code before
the uncompressed kernel is executed. At this point of time initrd and
certificates have been already rescued. Uncompressed kernel .bss size
is known from vmlinux_info. It is also taken into consideration during
uncompressed kernel positioning by kaslr (so it is safe to clean it).
With that uncompressed kernel is starting with .bss section zeroed and
no .bss section usage restrictions apply. Which makes chkbss checks for
uncompressed kernel objects obsolete and they can be removed.
early_nobss.c is also not needed anymore. Parts of it which are still
relevant are moved to early.c. Kasan initialization code is now called
directly from head64 (early.c is instrumented and should not be
executed before kasan shadow memory is set up).

There never have been distributions that shiped with CONFIG_SMP=n for
s390. In addition the kernel currently doesn't even compile with
CONFIG_SMP=n for s390. Most likely it wouldn't even work, even if we
fix the compile error, since nobody tests it, since there is no use
case that I can think of.
Therefore simply enforce CONFIG_SMP and get rid of some more or
less unused code.

Rework the dump_trace() stack unwinder interface to support different
unwinding algorithms. The new interface looks like this:
struct unwind_state state;
unwind_for_each_frame(&state, task, regs, start_stack)
do_something(state.sp, state.ip, state.reliable);
The unwind_bc.c file contains the implementation for the classic
back-chain unwinder.
One positive side effect of the new code is it now handles ftraced
functions gracefully. It prints the real name of the return function
instead of 'return_to_handler'.

Introduce a PMU device named cpum_cf_diag. It extracts the
values of all counters in all authorized counter sets and stores
them as event raw data. This is done with the STORE CPU COUNTER
MULTIPLE instruction to speed up access. All counter sets
fit into one buffer. The values of each counter are taken
when the event is started on the performance sub-system and when
the event is stopped.
This results in counter values available at the start and
at the end of the measurement time frame. The difference is
calculated for each counter. The differences of all
counters are then saved as event raw data in the perf.data
file.
The counter values are accompanied by the time stamps
when the counter set was started and when the counter set
was stopped. This data is part of a trailer entry which
describes the time frame, counter set version numbers,
CPU speed, and machine type for later analysis.

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".
The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:
#if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
# define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
#endif
We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.
Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

Add CONFIG_EXPOLINE to enable the use of the new -mindirect-branch= and
-mfunction_return= compiler options to create a kernel fortified against
the specte v2 attack.
With CONFIG_EXPOLINE=y all indirect branches will be issued with an
execute type instruction. For z10 or newer the EXRL instruction will
be used, for older machines the EX instruction. The typical indirect
call
basr %r14,%r1
is replaced with a PC relative call to a new thunk
brasl %r14,__s390x_indirect_jump_r1
The thunk contains the EXRL/EX instruction to the indirect branch
__s390x_indirect_jump_r1:
exrl 0,0f
j .
0: br %r1
The detour via the execute type instruction has a performance impact.
To get rid of the detour the new kernel parameter "nospectre_v2" and
"spectre_v2=[on,off,auto]" can be used. If the parameter is specified
the kernel and module code will be patched at runtime.

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.

Implement CPU alternatives, which allows to optionally patch newer
instructions at runtime, based on CPU facilities availability.
A new kernel boot parameter "noaltinstr" disables patching.
Current implementation is derived from x86 alternatives. Although
ideal instructions padding (when altinstr is longer then oldinstr)
is added at compile time, and no oldinstr nops optimization has to be
done at runtime. Also couple of compile time sanity checks are done:
1. oldinstr and altinstr must be <= 254 bytes long,
2. oldinstr and altinstr must not have an odd length.
alternative(oldinstr, altinstr, facility);
alternative_2(oldinstr, altinstr1, facility1, altinstr2, facility2);
Both compile time and runtime padding consists of either 6/4/2 bytes nop
or a jump (brcl) + 2 bytes nop filler if padding is longer then 6 bytes.
.altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement sections are part of
__init_begin : __init_end region and are freed after initialization.

This adds a new system call to enable the use of guarded storage for
user space processes. The system call takes two arguments, a command
and pointer to a guarded storage control block:
s390_guarded_storage(int command, struct gs_cb *gs_cb);
The second argument is relevant only for the GS_SET_BC_CB command.
The commands in detail:
0 - GS_ENABLE
Enable the guarded storage facility for the current task. The
initial content of the guarded storage control block will be
all zeros. After the enablement the user space code can use
load-guarded-storage-controls instruction (LGSC) to load an
arbitrary control block. While a task is enabled the kernel
will save and restore the current content of the guarded
storage registers on context switch.
1 - GS_DISABLE
Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the current
task. The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of
the guarded storage registers, the task specific content of
these registers is lost.
2 - GS_SET_BC_CB
Set a broadcast guarded storage control block. This is called
per thread and stores a specific guarded storage control block
in the task struct of the current task. This control block will
be used for the broadcast event GS_BROADCAST.
3 - GS_CLEAR_BC_CB
Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block. The guarded-
storage control block is removed from the task struct that was
established by GS_SET_BC_CB.
4 - GS_BROADCAST
Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the current task.
Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage
control block will load this control block and will be enabled
for guarded storage. The broadcast guarded storage control block
is used up, a second broadcast without a refresh of the stored
control block with GS_SET_BC_CB will not have any effect.

This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
working on a patch to fix this.
Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
change prototypes.
- Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
Piggin
- fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.
- preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
-ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections
- CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell
- fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

This enables UBSAN for s390. We have to disable the null sanitizer
as s390 code does access memory via a null pointer (the prefix page).

Fix this one when gcov is enabled:
arch/s390/kernel/als.o:(.data+0x118): undefined reference to `__gcov_merge_add'
arch/s390/kernel/als.o: In function `_GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0_verify_facilities':
(.text.startup+0x8): undefined reference to `__gcov_init'
Please merge with "s390/als: convert architecture level set code to C".

There is no reason to have this code in assembly language. Therefore
convert it to C.
Note that this code needs special treatment: it is called very early
and one of the side effects is that e.g. the bss section is not
cleared. Therefore the preferred way for static variables is to put
them on the stack which has a size of 16KB.
There is no functional change with this patch.

Now that hopefully all inline assemblies have been converted to single
basic blocks we can enable kcov on s390.
Note that this patch does not disable as many files on s390 like the
x86 variant does. Right now I didn't see a reason to do that, however
additional files or directories can be excluded at any time.
The runtime overhead seems to be quite high.

Introduce the kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() function
to enclose any in-kernel use of FPU instructions and registers.
In enclosed sections, you can perform floating-point or vector
(SIMD) computations. The functions take care of saving and
restoring FPU register contents and controls.
For usage details, see the guidelines in arch/s390/include/asm/fpu/api.h

head.S on s390 contains some sanity checks if the kernel will run on a
machine or if the machine is too old, e.g. if the kernel contains
instructions not available on the machine. If so, it will emit an error
message to the console before it stops execution.
Therefore head.S contains only instructions which are availanble with the
earliest machine generation (z900). In order to make sure we don't
accidently add instructions which are not available on z900, always compile
with -march=z900. This makes sure compilation will fail if wrong
instructions are used.

To be able to analyse problems in regard to hypervisor overhead
add a tracepoing for diagnose calls. It reports the number of
the diagnose issued, e.g.
sshd-1385 [002] .... 42.701431: diagnose: nr=0x9c
<idle>-0 [001] ..s. 43.587528: diagnose: nr=0x9c

The 31-bit assembler code for the early sclp console is error
prone as git commit fde24b54d976cc123506695c17db01438a11b673
"s390/sclp: clear upper register halves in _sclp_print_early"
has shown.
Convert the assembler code to C.

Rename two more files which I forgot. Also remove the "asm" from the
swsusp_asm64.S file, since the ".S" suffix already makes it obvious
that this file contains assembler code.
