Until now, non volatile registers were restored everytime they were saved, ie using EXC_XFER_STD meant saving and restoring them while EXC_XFER_LITE meant neither saving not restoring them. Now that they are always saved, EXC_XFER_STD means to restore them and EXC_XFER_LITE means to not restore them. Most of the users of EXC_XFER_STD only need to retrieve the non volatile registers. For them there is no need to restore the non volatile registers as they have not been modified. Only very few exceptions require non volatile registers restore. Opencode the few places which require saving of non volatile registers.

In order to increase flexibility, add a macro that will for now call transfer_to_handler. As transfer_to_handler doesn't do the actual transfer anymore, also name it prepare_transfer_to_handler. The following patches will progressively remove the use of transfer_to_handler label.

Now that the MMU is re-enabled before calling the transfer function, we don't need anymore that hack with the address of the handler and the return function sitting just after the 'bl' to the transfer fonction, that function is retrieving via a read relative to 'lr'. Do a regular call to the transfer function, then to the handler, then branch to the return function.

The space in the head section is rather constrained by the fact that exception vectors are spread every 0x100 bytes and sometimes we need to have "out of line" code because it doesn't fit. Now that we are enabling MMU early in the prolog, take that opportunity to jump somewhere else in the .text section where we don't have any space constraint.

The check of the emergency context initialisation in vmap_stack_overflow is buggy for the SMP case, as it compares r1 with 0 while in the SMP case r1 is offseted by the CPU id.

On 40x and 8xx, kernel text is pinned. On book3s/32, kernel text is mapped by BATs. Enable instruction translation at the same time as data translation, it makes things simpler. In syscall handler, MSR_RI can also be set at the same time because srr0/srr1 are already saved and r1 is set properly. On booke, translation is always on, so at the end all PPC32 have translation on early. Just update msr. Also update comment in power_save_ppc32_restore().

If the code can use a stack in vm area, it can also use a stack in linear space. Simplify code by removing old non VMAP stack code on PPC32. That means the data translation is now re-enabled early in exception prolog in all cases, not only when using VMAP stacks. While we are touching EXCEPTION_PROLOG macros, remove the unused for_rtas parameter in EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1.

ksp_limit is there to help detect stack overflows. That is specific to ppc32 as it was removed from ppc64 in commit cbc9565e ("powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64"). There are other means for detecting stack overflows. As ppc64 has proven to not need it, ppc32 should be able to do without it too. Lets remove it and simplify exception handling.

Ensure normal exception handler are able to manage stuff with MMU enabled. For that we use CONFIG_VMAP_STACK related code allthough there is no intention to really activate CONFIG_VMAP_STACK on powerpc 40x for the moment. 40x uses SPRN_DEAR instead of SPRN_DAR and SPRN_ESR instead of SPRN_DSISR. Take it into account in common macros. 40x MSR value doesn't fit on 15 bits, use LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() in common macros that will be used also with 40x.

SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH5 is used to save SPRN_PID. SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH6 is already available. SPRN_PID is only 8 bits. We have r12 that contains CR. We only need to preserve CR0, so we have space available in r12 to save PID. Keep PID in r12 and free up SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH5. Then In TLB miss handlers, instead of using SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH0 and SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH1, use SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH5 and SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH6 to avoid future conflicts with normal exception prologs.

unrecoverable_exception() is never expected to return, most callers have an infiniteloop in case it returns. Ensure it really never returns by terminating it with a BUG(), and declare it __no_return. It always GCC to really simplify functions calling it. In the exemple below, it avoids the stack frame in the likely fast path and avoids code duplication for the exit.

As per ISA 3.1, prefixed instruction should not cross 64-byte boundary. So don't allow Uprobe on such prefixed instruction. There are two ways probed instruction is changed in mapped pages. First, when Uprobe is activated, it searches for all the relevant pages and replace instruction in them. In this case, if that probe is on the 64-byte unaligned prefixed instruction, error out directly. Second, when Uprobe is already active and user maps a relevant page via mmap(), instruction is replaced via mmap() code path. But because Uprobe is invalid, entire mmap() operation can not be stopped. In this case just print an error and continue.

Usually sigset_t is exactly 8B which is a "trivial" size and does not warrant using __copy_from_user(). Use __get_user() directly in anticipation of future work to remove the trivial size optimizations from __copy_from_user(). The ppc32 implementation of get_sigset_t() previously called copy_from_user() which, unlike __copy_from_user(), calls access_ok(). Replacing this w/ __get_user() (no access_ok()) is fine here since both callsites in signal_32.c are preceded by an earlier access_ok(). Signed-off-by: Christopher M.

Add uaccess blocks and use the 'unsafe' versions of functions doing user access where possible to reduce the number of times uaccess has to be opened/closed. There is no 'unsafe' version of copy_siginfo_to_user, so move it slightly to allow for a "longer" uaccess block. Co-developed-by: Christopher M.

Previously restore_sigcontext() performed a costly KUAP switch on every uaccess operation. These repeated uaccess switches cause a significant drop in signal handling performance. Rewrite restore_sigcontext() to assume that a userspace read access window is open by replacing all uaccess functions with their 'unsafe' versions. Modify the callers to first open, call unsafe_restore_sigcontext(), and then close the uaccess window. Signed-off-by: Christopher M.

Both rt_sigreturn() and handle_rt_signal_64() contain TM-related ifdefs which break-up an if/else block. Provide stubs for the ifdef-guarded TM functions and remove the need for an ifdef in rt_sigreturn(). Rework the remaining TM ifdef in handle_rt_signal64() similar to commit f1cf4f93 ("powerpc/signal32: Remove ifdefery in middle of if/else"). Unlike in the commit for ppc32, the ifdef can't be removed entirely since uc_transact in sigframe depends on CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM. Signed-off-by: Christopher M.

Unlike the other MSR_TM_* macros, MSR_TM_ACTIVE does not reference or use its parameter unless CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is defined. This causes an 'unused variable' compile warning unless the variable is also guarded with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM. Reference but do nothing with the argument in the macro to avoid a potential compile warning. Signed-off-by: Christopher M.

The majority of setup_sigcontext() can be refactored to execute in an "unsafe" context assuming an open uaccess window except for some non-inline function calls. Move these out into a separate prepare_setup_sigcontext() function which must be called first and before opening up a uaccess window. Non-inline function calls should be avoided during a uaccess window for a few reasons: - KUAP should be enabled for as much kernel code as possible. Opening a uaccess window disables KUAP which means any code executed during this time contributes to a potential attack surface. - Non-inline functions default to traceable which means they are instrumented for ftrace. This adds more code which could run with KUAP disabled. - Powerpc does not currently support the objtool UACCESS checks. All code running with uaccess must be audited manually which means: less code -> less work -> fewer problems (in theory). A follow-up commit converts setup_sigcontext() to be "unsafe".
