Define the VAS_TX_WIN_OPEN ioctl interface for NX GZIP access
from user space. This interface is used to open GZIP send window and
mmap region which can be used by userspace to send requests to NX

set_thread_uses_vas() sets used_vas flag for a process that opened VAS
window and issue CP_ABORT during context switch for only that process.
In multi-thread application, windows can be shared. For example Thread
A can open a window and Thread B can run COPY/PASTE instructions to
send NX request which may cause corruption or snooping or a covert
channel Also once this flag is set, continue to run CP_ABORT even the
VAS window is closed.

So define vas-windows counter in process mm_context, increment this
counter for each window open and decrement it for window close. If
vas-windows is set, issue CP_ABORT during context switch. It means
clear the foreign real address mapping only if the process / thread
uses COPY/PASTE. Then disable it for that process if windows are not
open.

Moved set_thread_uses_vas() code to vas_tx_win_open() as this
functionality is needed only for userspace open windows. We are adding
VAS userspace support along with this fix. So no need to include this
fix in stable releases.

NX uses credit mechanism to control the number of requests issued on
a specific window at any point of time. Only send windows and fault
window are used credits. When the request is issued on a given window,
a credit is taken. This credit will be returned after that request is
processed. If credits are not available, returns RMA_Busy for send
window and RMA_Reject for fault window.

NX expects OS to return credit for send window after processing fault
CRB. Also credit has to be returned for fault window after handling
the fault.

Applications polls on CSB for the status update after requests are
issued. NX process these requests and update the CSB with the status.
If it encounters translation error, pastes CRB in fault FIFO and
raises an interrupt. The kernel handles fault by reading CRB from
fault FIFO and process the fault CRB.

For each fault CRB, update fault address in CRB (fault_storage_addr)
and translation error status in CSB so that user space can touch the
fault address and resend the request. If the user space passed invalid
CSB address send signal to process with SIGSEGV.

In the case of multi-thread applications, child thread may not be
available. So if the task is not running, send signal to tgid.

When NX encounters translation error on CRB and any request buffer,
raises an interrupt on the CPU to handle the fault. It can raise one
interrupt for multiple faults. Expects OS to handle these faults and
return credits for fault window after processing faults.

Setup thread IRQ handler and IRQ thread function per each VAS instance.
IRQ handler checks if the thread is already woken up and can handle new
faults. If so returns with IRQ_HANDLED, otherwise wake up thread to
process new faults.

The thread functions reads each CRB entry from fault FIFO until sees
invalid entry. After reading each CRB, determine the corresponding
send window using pswid (from CRB) and process fault CRB. Then
invalidate the entry and return credit. Processing fault CRB and
return credit is described in subsequent patches.

When process opens a window, its pid and tgid will be saved in the
vas_window struct. This window will be closed when the process exits.
The kernel handles NX faults by updating CSB or send SEGV signal to pid
of the process if the userspace csb addr is invalid.

In multi-thread applications, a window can be opened by a child thread,
but it will not be closed when this thread exits. It is expected that
the parent will clean up all resources including NX windows opened by
child threads. A child thread can send NX requests using this window
and could be killed before completion is reported. If the pid assigned
to this thread is reused while requests are pending, a failure SEGV
would be directed to the wrong place.

To prevent reusing the pid, take references to pid and mm when the window
is opened and release them when when the window is closed. Then if child
thread is not running, SEGV signal will be sent to thread group leader
(tgid).

When remapping a mapping where a portion of a VMA is remapped
into another portion of the VMA it can cause the VMA to become
split. During the copy_vma operation the VMA can actually
be remerged if it's an anonymous VMA whose pages have not yet
been faulted. This isn't normally a problem because at the end
of the remap the original portion is unmapped causing it to
become split again.

However, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaves that original portion in place which
means that the VMA which was split and then remerged is not actually
split at the end of the mremap. This patch fixes a bug where
we don't detect that the VMAs got remerged and we end up
putting back VM_ACCOUNT on the next mapping which is completely
unreleated. When that next mapping is unmapped it results in
incorrectly unaccounting for the memory which was never accounted,
and eventually we will underflow on the memory comittment.

There is also another issue which is similar, we're currently
accouting for the number of pages in the new_vma but that's wrong.
We need to account for the length of the remap operation as that's
all that is being added. If there was a mapping already at that
location its comittment would have been adjusted as part of
the munmap at the start of the mremap.

A really simple repro can be seen in:

        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R. Silva <gustavo@embeddedor.com>

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
