2018-02-22x86: Treat R_X86_64_PLT32 as R_X86_64_PC32H.J. Lu1-0/+3
On i386, there are 2 types of PLTs, PIC and non-PIC. PIE and shared objects must use PIC PLT. To use PIC PLT, you need to load _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ into EBX first. There is no need for that on x86-64 since x86-64 uses PC-relative PLT. On x86-64, for 32-bit PC-relative branches, we can generate PLT32 relocation, instead of PC32 relocation, which can also be used as a marker for 32-bit PC-relative branches. Linker can always reduce PLT32 relocation to PC32 if function is defined locally. Local functions should use PC32 relocation. As far as Linux kernel is concerned, R_X86_64_PLT32 can be treated the same as R_X86_64_PC32 since Linux kernel doesn't use PLT. R_X86_64_PLT32 for 32-bit PC-relative branches has been enabled in binutils master branch which will become binutils 2.31. [ hjl is working on having better documentation on this all, but a few more notes from him: "PLT32 relocation is used as marker for PC-relative branches. Because of EBX, it looks odd to generate PLT32 relocation on i386 when EBX doesn't have GOT. As for symbol resolution, PLT32 and PC32 relocations are almost interchangeable. But when linker sees PLT32 relocation against a protected symbol, it can resolved locally at link-time since it is used on a branch instruction. Linker can't do that for PC32 relocation" but for the kernel use, the two are basically the same, and this commit gets things building and working with the current binutils master - Linus ] Signed-off-by: H.J.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman8-0/+8
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.

2016-07-21x86/insn: Add AVX-512 support to the instruction decoderAdrian Hunter1-3/+8
Add support for Intel's AVX-512 instructions to the instruction decoder. AVX-512 instructions are documented in Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference (February 2016). AVX-512 instructions are identified by a EVEX prefix which, for the purpose of instruction decoding, can be treated as though it were a 4-byte VEX prefix. Existing instructions which can now accept an EVEX prefix need not be further annotated in the op code map (x86-opcode-map.txt). In the case of new instructions, the op code map is updated accordingly. Also add associated Mask Instructions that are used to manipulate mask registers used in AVX-512 instructions. The 'perf tools' instruction decoder is updated in a subsequent patch. And a representative set of instructions is added to the perf tools new instructions test in a subsequent patch.

2014-11-18x86: Remove arbitrary instruction size limit in instruction decoderDave Hansen2-2/+2
The current x86 instruction decoder steps along through the instruction stream but always ensures that it never steps farther than the largest possible instruction size (MAX_INSN_SIZE). The MPX code is now going to be doing some decoding of userspace instructions. We copy those from userspace in to the kernel and they're obviously completely untrusted coming from userspace. In addition to the constraint that instructions can only be so long, we also have to be aware of how long the buffer is that came in from userspace. This _looks_ to be similar to what the perf and kprobes is doing, but it's unclear to me whether they are affected. The whole reason we need this is that it is perfectly valid to be executing an instruction within MAX_INSN_SIZE bytes of an unreadable page. We should be able to gracefully handle short reads in those cases. This adds support to the decoder to record how long the buffer being decoded is and to refuse to "validate" the instruction if we would have gone over the end of the buffer to decode it. The kprobes code probably needs to be looked at here a bit more carefully.

2014-11-01x86, kaslr: Prevent .bss from overlaping initrdJunjie Mao1-0/+30
When choosing a random address, the current implementation does not take into account the reversed space for .bss and .brk sections. Thus the relocated kernel may overlap other components in memory. Here is an example of the overlap from a x86_64 kernel in qemu (the ranges of physical addresses are presented): Physical Address 0x0fe00000 --+--------------------+ <-- randomized base / | relocated kernel | vmlinux.bin | (from vmlinux.bin) | 0x1336d000 (an ELF file) +--------------------+-- \ | | \ 0x1376d870 --+--------------------+ | | relocs table | | 0x13c1c2a8 +--------------------+ .bss and .brk | | | 0x13ce6000 +--------------------+ | | | / 0x13f77000 | initrd |-- | | 0x13fef374 +--------------------+ The initrd image will then be overwritten by the memset during early initialization: [ 1.655204] Unpacking initramfs...

Fix the x86 instruction decoder to decode bsr/bsf/jmpe with operand-size prefix (66h). This fixes the test case failure reported by Linus, attached below. bsf/bsr/jmpe have a special encoding. Opcode map in Intel Software Developers Manual vol2 says they have TZCNT/LZCNT variants if it has F3h prefix. However, there is no information if it has other 66h or F2h prefixes. Current instruction decoder supposes that those are bad instructions, but it actually accepts at least operand-size prefixes. H. Peter Anvin further explains: " TZCNT/LZCNT are F3 + BSF/BSR exactly because the F2 and F3 prefixes have historically been no-ops with most instructions. This allows software to unconditionally use the prefixed versions and get TZCNT/LZCNT on the processors that have them if they don't care about the difference.

The symbol jiffies is created in the linker script as an alias to jiffies_64. Unfortunately this is done outside any section, and apparently GNU ld 2.21 doesn't carry the section with it, so we end up with an absolute symbol and therefore a broken kernel. Add jiffies and jiffies_64 to the whitelist. The most disturbing bit with this discovery is that it shows that we have had multiple linker bugs in this area crossing multiple generations, and have been silently building bad kernels for some time.

As noted in checkin: a3e854d95 x86, relocs: Workaround for binutils 2.22.52.0.1 section bug ld version 2.22.52.0.[12] can incorrectly promote relative symbols to absolute, if the output section they appear in is otherwise empty. Since checkin: 6520fe55 x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool we actually check for this and error out rather than silently creating a kernel which will malfunction if relocated. Ingo found a configuration in which __start_builtin_fw triggered the warning. Go through the linker script sources and look for more symbols that could plausibly get bogusly promoted to absolute, and add them to the whitelist. In general, if the following error triggers: Invalid absolute R_386_32 relocation: <symbol> ... then we should verify that <symbol> is really meant to be relocated, and add it and any related symbols manually to the S_REL regexp. Please note that 6520fe55 does not introduce the error, only the check for the error -- without 6520fe55 this version of ld will simply produce a corrupt kernel if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set on x86-32.

2012-05-18x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs toolH. Peter Anvin3-0/+802
A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.
