GLOBAL is an x86's custom macro and is going to die very soon. It was meant for global symbols, but here, it was used for functions. Instead, use the new macros SYM_FUNC_START* and SYM_CODE_START* (depending on the type of the function) which are dedicated to global functions. And since they both require a closing by SYM_*_END, do that here too. startup_64, which does not use GLOBAL but uses .globl explicitly, is converted too. "No alignments" are preserved. Signed-off-by:

Use the new SYM_DATA, SYM_DATA_START, and SYM_DATA_END in both 32 and 64 bit head_*.S. In the 64-bit version, define also SYM_DATA_START_PAGE_ALIGNED locally using the new SYM_START. It is used in the code instead of NEXT_PAGE() which was defined in this file and had been using the obsolete macro GLOBAL().

_key_expansion_128 is an alias to _key_expansion_256a, __memcpy to memcpy, xen_syscall32_target to xen_sysenter_target, and so on. Annotate them all using the new SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS, SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_ALIAS, and SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS. This will make the tools generating the debuginfo happy as it avoids nesting and double symbols. Signed-off-by:

Use the newly added SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL to annotate beginnings of all functions which do not have ".globl" annotation, but their endings are annotated by ENDPROC. This is needed to balance ENDPROC for tools that generate debuginfo. These function names are not prepended with ".L" as they might appear in call traces and they wouldn't be visible after such change. To be symmetric, the functions' ENDPROCs are converted to the new SYM_FUNC_END. Signed-off-by:

Use the newly added SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL* to annotate beginnings of all pseudo-functions (those ending with END until now) which do not have ".globl" annotation. This is needed to balance END for tools that generate debuginfo. Note that ENDs are switched to SYM_CODE_END too so that everybody can see the pairing. C-like functions (which handle frame ptr etc.) are not annotated here, hence SYM_CODE_* macros are used here, not SYM_FUNC_*. Note that the 32bit version of early_idt_handler_common already had ENDPROC -- switch that to SYM_CODE_END for the same reason as above (and to be the same as 64bit). While early_idt_handler_common is LOCAL, it's name is not prepended with ".L" as it happens to appear in call traces. bad_get_user*, and bad_put_user are now aligned, as they are separate functions. They do not mind to be aligned -- no need to be compact there. early_idt_handler_common is aligned now too, as it is after early_idt_handler_array, so as well no need to be compact there. verify_cpu is self-standing and included in other .S files, so align it too. The others have alignment preserved to what it used to be (using the _NOALIGN variant of macros). Signed-off-by:

Place SYM_*_START_NOALIGN and SYM_*_END around the THUNK macro body. Preserve @function by FUNC (64bit) and CODE (32bit). Given it was not marked as aligned, use NOALIGN.

Here, it just serves documentation purposes (as opening and closing brackets of functions). Signed-off-by:

There are functions in relocate_kernel_{32,64}.c which are not annotated. This makes automatic annotations on them rather hard. So annotate all the functions now. Note that these are not C-like functions, so FUNC is not used. Instead CODE markers are used. Also the functions are not aligned, so the NOALIGN versions are used: - SYM_CODE_START_NOALIGN - SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN - SYM_CODE_END The result is: 0000 108 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 relocate_kernel 006c 165 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 identity_mapped 0146 127 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 swap_pages 0111 53 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 1 virtual_mapped Signed-off-by: -

Some global data in the suspend code were marked as `ENTRY'. ENTRY was intended for functions and shall be paired with ENDPROC. ENTRY also aligns symbols to 16 bytes which creates unnecessary holes. Note that: * saved_magic (long) in wakeup_32 is still prepended by section's ALIGN * saved_magic (quad) in wakeup_64 follows a bunch of quads which are aligned (but need not be aligned to 16) Since historical markings are being dropped, make proper use of newly added SYM_DATA in this code.

Introduce new C macros for annotations of functions and data in assembly. There is a long-standing mess in macros like ENTRY, END, ENDPROC and similar. They are used in different manners and sometimes incorrectly. So introduce macros with clear use to annotate assembly as follows: a) Support macros for the ones below SYM_T_FUNC -- type used by assembler to mark functions SYM_T_OBJECT -- type used by assembler to mark data SYM_T_NONE -- type used by assembler to mark entries of unknown type They are defined as STT_FUNC, STT_OBJECT, and STT_NOTYPE respectively. According to the gas manual, this is the most portable way. I am not sure about other assemblers, so this can be switched back to %function and %object if this turns into a problem. Architectures can also override them by something like ", @function" if they need. SYM_A_ALIGN, SYM_A_NONE -- align the symbol? SYM_L_GLOBAL, SYM_L_WEAK, SYM_L_LOCAL -- linkage of symbols b) Mostly internal annotations, used by the ones below SYM_ENTRY -- use only if you have to (for non-paired symbols) SYM_START -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols) SYM_END -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols) c) Annotations for code SYM_INNER_LABEL_ALIGN -- only for labels in the middle of code SYM_INNER_LABEL -- only for labels in the middle of code SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_ALIAS -- use where there are two local names for one function SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS -- use where there are two global names for one function SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS -- the end of LOCAL_ALIASed or ALIASed function SYM_FUNC_START -- use for global functions SYM_FUNC_START_NOALIGN -- use for global functions, w/o alignment SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL -- use for local functions SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local functions, w/o alignment SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK -- use for weak functions SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_NOALIGN -- use for weak functions, w/o alignment SYM_FUNC_END -- the end of SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL, SYM_FUNC_START, SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK, ... For functions with special (non-C) calling conventions: SYM_CODE_START -- use for non-C (special) functions SYM_CODE_START_NOALIGN -- use for non-C (special) functions, w/o alignment SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL -- use for local non-C (special) functions SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local non-C (special) functions, w/o alignment SYM_CODE_END -- the end of SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL or SYM_CODE_START d) For data SYM_DATA_START -- global data symbol SYM_DATA_START_LOCAL -- local data symbol SYM_DATA_END -- the end of the SYM_DATA_START symbol SYM_DATA_END_LABEL -- the labeled end of SYM_DATA_START symbol SYM_DATA -- start+end wrapper around simple global data SYM_DATA_LOCAL -- start+end wrapper around simple local data ========== The macros allow to pair starts and ends of functions and mark functions correctly in the output ELF objects. All users of the old macros in x86 are converted to use these in further patches. Signed-off-by:

During the assembly cleanup patchset review, I found more symbols which are used only locally. So make them really local by prepending ".L" to them. Namely: - wakeup_idt is used only in realmode/rm/wakeup_asm.S. - in_pm32 is used only in boot/pmjump.S. - retint_user is used only in entry/entry_64.S, perhaps since commit 2ec67971 ("x86/entry/64/compat: Remove most of the fast system call machinery"), where entry_64_compat's caller was removed. Drop GLOBAL from all of them too. I do not see more candidates in the series. Signed-off-by:

Moving early_recursion_flag (4 bytes) after early_level4_pgt (4k) and early_dynamic_pgts (256k) saves 4k which are used for alignment of early_level4_pgt after early_recursion_flag. The real improvement is merely on the source code side. Previously it was: * __INITDATA + .balign * early_recursion_flag variable * a ton of CPP MACROS * __INITDATA (again) * early_top_pgt and early_recursion_flag variables * .data Now, it is a bit simpler: * a ton of CPP MACROS * __INITDATA + .balign * early_top_pgt and early_recursion_flag variables * early_recursion_flag variable * .data On the binary level the change looks like this: Before: (sections) 12 .init.data 00042000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00008000 2**12 (symbols) 000000 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 22 early_recursion_flag 001000 4096 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 22 early_top_pgt 002000 0x40000 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 22 early_dynamic_pgts After: (sections) 12 .init.data 00041004 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00008000 2**12 (symbols) 000000 4096 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 22 early_top_pgt 001000 0x40000 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 22 early_dynamic_pgts 041000 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 22 early_recursion_flag So the resulting vmlinux is smaller by 4k with my toolchain as many other variables can be placed after early_recursion_flag to fill the rest of the page. Note that this is only .init data, so it is freed right after being booted anyway. Savings on-disk are none -- compression of zeros is easy, so the size of bzImage is the same pre and post the change. Signed-off-by:

Merge active entropy generation updates. This is admittedly partly "for discussion". We need to have a way forward for the boot time deadlocks where user space ends up waiting for more entropy, but no entropy is forthcoming because the system is entirely idle just waiting for something to happen. While this was triggered by what is arguably a user space bug with GDM/gnome-session asking for secure randomness during early boot, when they didn't even need any such truly secure thing, the issue ends up being that our "getrandom()" interface is prone to that kind of confusion, because people don't think very hard about whether they want to block for sufficient amounts of entropy. The approach here-in is to decide to not just passively wait for entropy to happen, but to start actively collecting it if it is missing. This is not necessarily always possible, but if the architecture has a CPU cycle counter, there is a fair amount of noise in the exact timings of reasonably complex loads. We may end up tweaking the load and the entropy estimates, but this should be at least a reasonable starting point. As part of this, we also revert the revert of the ext4 IO pattern improvement that ended up triggering the reported lack of external entropy. * getrandom() active entropy waiting: Revert "Revert "ext4: make __ext4_get_inode_loc plug"" random: try to actively add entropy rather than passively wait for it

This reverts commit 72dbcf72. Instead of waiting forever for entropy that may just not happen, we now try to actively generate entropy when required, and are thus hopefully avoiding the problem that caused the nice ext4 IO pattern fix to be reverted. So revert the revert. Cc: Ahmed S. Darwish <darwish.07@gmail.com> Cc: Ted Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Cc: Alexander E. Patrakov <patrakov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:

For 5.3 we had to revert a nice ext4 IO pattern improvement, because it caused a bootup regression due to lack of entropy at bootup together with arguably broken user space that was asking for secure random numbers when it really didn't need to. See commit 72dbcf72 (Revert "ext4: make __ext4_get_inode_loc plug"). This aims to solve the issue by actively generating entropy noise using the CPU cycle counter when waiting for the random number generator to initialize. This only works when you have a high-frequency time stamp counter available, but that's the case on all modern x86 CPU's, and on most other modern CPU's too. What we do is to generate jitter entropy from the CPU cycle counter under a somewhat complex load: calling the scheduler while also guaranteeing a certain amount of timing noise by also triggering a timer. I'm sure we can tweak this, and that people will want to look at other alternatives, but there's been a number of papers written on jitter entropy, and this should really be fairly conservative by crediting one bit of entropy for every timer-induced jump in the cycle counter. Not because the timer itself would be all that unpredictable, but because the interaction between the timer and the loop is going to be. Even if (and perhaps particularly if) the timer actually happens on another CPU, the cacheline interaction between the loop that reads the cycle counter and the timer itself firing is going to add perturbations to the cycle counter values that get mixed into the entropy pool. As Thomas pointed out, with a modern out-of-order CPU, even quite simple loops show a fair amount of hard-to-predict timing variability even in the absense of external interrupts. But this tries to take that further by actually having a fairly complex interaction. This is not going to solve the entropy issue for architectures that have no CPU cycle counter, but it's not clear how (and if) that is solvable, and the hardware in question is largely starting to be irrelevant. And by doing this we can at least avoid some of the even more contentious approaches (like making the entropy waiting time out in order to avoid the possibly unbounded waiting).
