Changing the x86 context tracking hooks is dangerous because there are no good checks that we track our context correctly. Add a helper to check that we're actually in CONTEXT_USER when we enter from user mode and wire it up for syscall entries. Subsequent patches will wire this up for all non-NMI entries as well. NMIs are their own special beast and cannot currently switch overall context tracking state. Instead, they have their own special RCU hooks. This is a tiny speedup if !CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING (removes a branch) and a tiny slowdown if CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACING (adds a layer of indirection). Eventually, we should fix up the core context tracking code to supply a function that does what we want (and can be much simpler than user_exit), which will enable us to get rid of the extra call.

Other than the super-atomic exception entries, all exception entries are supposed to switch our context tracking state to CONTEXT_KERNEL. Assert that they do. These assertions appear trivial at this point, as exception_enter() is the function responsible for switching context, but I'm planning on reworking x86's exception context tracking, and these assertions will help make sure that all of this code keeps working.

The entry and exit C helpers were confusingly scattered between ptrace.c and signal.c, even though they aren't specific to ptrace or signal handling. Move them together in a new file. This change just moves code around. It doesn't change anything. Signed-off-by:

Low-level arch entries often call notify_die(), and it's easy for arch code to fail to exit an RCU quiescent state first. Assert that we're not quiescent in notify_die(). Signed-off-by:

Once x86 exports its do_signal(), the prototypes will clash. Fix the clash and also improve the code a bit: remove the unnecessary kern_do_signal() indirection. This allows interrupt_end() to share the 'regs' parameter calculation. Also remove the unused return code to match x86. Minimally build and boot tested. Signed-off-by:

If user code does SYSCALL32 or SYSENTER without a valid stack, then our attempt to determine the syscall args will result in a failed uaccess fault. Previously, we would try to recover by jumping to the syscall exit code, but we'd run the syscall exit work even though we never made it to the syscall entry work. Clean it up by treating the failure path as a non-syscall entry and exit pair. This fixes strace's output when running the syscall_arg_fault test. Without this fix, strace would get out of sync and would fail to associate syscall entries with syscall exits. Signed-off-by:

This test passes on 4.0 and fails on some newer kernels. Fortunately, the failure is likely not a big deal. This test will make sure that we don't break it further (e.g. OOPSing) as we clean up the entry code and that we eventually fix the regression. There's arguably no need to preserve the old ABI here -- anything that makes it into a fast (vDSO) syscall with a bad stack is about to crash no matter what we do. Signed-off-by:

The x32 ABI is now independent of the ia32 compat ABI. Common code is now conditional on CONFIG_COMPAT, but unshared code like syscall entry, signal handling, and the VDSO are under separate config options. Signed-off-by:

Before, the code to do RDTSC looked like: rdtsc shl $0x20, %rdx mov %eax, %eax or %rdx, %rax The "mov %eax, %eax" is required to clear the high 32 bits of RAX. By declaring low and high as 64-bit variables, the code is simplified to: rdtsc shl $0x20,%rdx or %rdx,%rax Yes, it's a 2-byte instruction that's not on a critical path, but there are principles to be upheld. Every user of EAX_EDX_RET has been checked. I tried to check users of EAX_EDX_ARGS, but there weren't any, so I deleted it to be safe. ( There's no benefit to making "high" 64 bits, but it was the simplest way to proceed. ) Signed-off-by:

__pvclock_read_cycles() used to have two barriers, one of which was unnecessary, which got removed after an initial version of this patch was sent. But the barrier is still open-coded unnecessarily - get rid of that barrier and clean up the code by just using rdtsc_ordered(). Signed-off-by:

Andy Lutomirski authored
There are two logical changes here. First, this removes a check for cpu_has_tsc. That check is unnecessary, as we don't register the TSC as a clocksource on systems that have no TSC. Second, it adds a barrier, thus preventing observable non-monotonicity. I suspect that the missing barrier was never a problem in practice because system calls themselves were heavy enough barriers to prevent user code from observing time warps due to speculation. (Without the corresponding barrier in the vDSO, however, non-monotonicity is easy to detect.) Signed-off-by:
-
Andy Lutomirski authored
Using get_cycles was unnecessary: check_tsc_warp() is not called on TSC-less systems. Replace rdtsc_barrier(); get_cycles() with rdtsc_ordered(). While we're at it, make the somewhat more dangerous change of removing barrier_before_rdtsc after RDTSC in the TSC warp check code. This should be okay, though -- the vDSO TSC code doesn't have that barrier, so, if removing the barrier from the warp check would cause us to detect a warp that we otherwise wouldn't detect, then we have a genuine bug.

rdtsc_barrier(); rdtsc() is an unnecessary mouthful and requires more thought than should be necessary. Add an rdtsc_ordered() helper and replace the trivial call sites with it. This should not change generated code. The duplication of the fence asm is temporary. Signed-off-by:

It has no more callers, and it was never a very sensible interface to begin with. Users of the TSC should either read all 64 bits or explicitly throw out the high bits. Signed-off-by:

This code is timing 100k indirect calls, so the added overhead of counting the number of cycles elapsed as a 64-bit number should be insignificant. Drop the optimization of using a 32-bit count. Signed-off-by:

Andy Lutomirski authored
We've had ->read_tsc() and ->read_tscp() paravirt hooks since the very beginning of paravirt, i.e., d3561b7f ("[PATCH] paravirt: header and stubs for paravirtualisation"). AFAICT, the only paravirt guest implementation that ever replaced these calls was vmware, and it's gone. Arguably even vmware shouldn't have hooked RDTSC -- we fully support systems that don't have a TSC at all, so there's no point for a paravirt implementation to pretend that we have a TSC but to replace it. I also doubt that these hooks actually worked. Calls to rdtscl() and rdtscll(), which respected the hooks, were used seemingly interchangeably with native_read_tsc(), which did not. Just remove them. If anyone ever needs them again, they can try to make a case for why they need them.

The only caller was KVM's read_tsc(). The only difference between vget_cycles() and native_read_tsc() was that vget_cycles() returned zero instead of crashing on TSC-less systems. KVM already checks vclock_mode() before calling that function, so the extra check is unnecessary. Also, KVM (host-side) requires the TSC to exist. Signed-off-by:

In the following commit: cdc7957d ("x86: move native_read_tsc() offline") ... native_read_tsc() was moved out of line, presumably for some now-obsolete vDSO-related reason. Undo it. The entire rdtsc, shl, or sequence is only 11 bytes, and calls via rdtscl() and similar helpers were already inlined. Signed-off-by:
