The THREAD_INFO() macro has a somewhat confusingly generic name, defined in a generic .h C header file. It also does not make it clear that it constructs a memory operand for use in assembly code. Rename it to ASM_THREAD_INFO() to make it all glaringly obvious on first glance.

On CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y kernels we set up MSR_IA32_SYSENTER_CS/ESP/EIP, but on !CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION kernels we leave them unchanged. Clear them to make sure the instruction is disabled properly.

This file just defines a number of constants, and a few macros and inline functions. It is particularly badly written. For example, it is not trivial to see how descriptors are numbered (you'd expect that should be easy, right?). This change deobfuscates it via the following changes: Group all GDT_ENTRY_foo together (move intervening stuff away). Number them explicitly: use a number, not PREV_DEFINE+1, +2, +3: I want to immediately see that GDT_ENTRY_PNPBIOS_CS32 is 18. Seeing (GDT_ENTRY_KERNEL_BASE+6) instead is not useful. The above change allows to remove GDT_ENTRY_KERNEL_BASE and GDT_ENTRY_PNPBIOS_BASE, which weren't used anywhere else. After a group of GDT_ENTRY_foo, define all selector values. Remove or improve some comments. In particular: Comment deleted as stating the obvious: /* * The GDT has 32 entries */ #define GDT_ENTRIES 32 "The segment offset needs to contain a RPL. Grr. -AK" changed to "Selectors need to also have a correct RPL (+3 thingy)" "GDT layout to get 64bit syscall right (sysret hardcodes gdt offsets)" expanded into a description *how exactly* sysret hardcodes them. Patch was tested to compile and not change vmlinux.o on 32-bit and 64-bit builds (verified with objdump).

The FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK macro is only necessary because we don't save %r11 to pt_regs->r11 on SYSCALL64 fast path, but we want ptrace to see it populated. Bite the bullet, add a single additional PUSH instruction, and remove the FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK macro. The RESTORE_TOP_OF_STACK macro is already a nop. Remove it too. On SandyBridge CPU, it does not get slower: measured 54.22 ns per getpid syscall before and after last two changes on defconfig kernel.

With this change, on SYSCALL64 code path we are now populating pt_regs->cs, pt_regs->ss and pt_regs->rcx unconditionally and therefore don't need to do that in FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK. We lose a number of large instructions there: text data bss dec hex filename 13298 0 0 13298 33f2 entry_64_before.o 12978 0 0 12978 32b2 entry_64.o What's more important, we convert two "MOVQ $imm,off(%rsp)" to "PUSH $imm" (the ones which fill pt_regs->cs,ss). Before this patch, placing them on fast path was slowing it down by two cycles: this form of MOV is very large, 12 bytes, and this probably reduces decode bandwidth to one instruction per cycle when CPU sees them. Therefore they were living in FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK instead (away from fast path). "PUSH $imm" is a small 2-byte instruction. Moving it to fast path does not slow it down in my measurements.

Denys Vlasenko authored
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) was set up in a way where it points five stack slots below the top of stack. Presumably, it was done to avoid one "sub $5*8,%rsp" in syscall/sysenter code paths, where iret frame needs to be created by hand. Ironically, none of them benefits from this optimization, since all of them need to allocate additional data on stack (struct pt_regs), so they still have to perform subtraction. This patch eliminates KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET. PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) now points directly to top of stack. pt_regs allocations are adjusted to allocate iret frame as well. Hopefully we can merge it later with 32-bit specific PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack) variable... Net result in generated code is that constants in several insns are changed. This change is necessary for changing struct pt_regs creation in SYSCALL64 code path from MOV to PUSH instructions.

This changes the THREAD_INFO() definition and all its callsites so that they do not count stack position from (top of stack - KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET), but from top of stack. Semi-mysterious expressions THREAD_INFO(%rsp,RIP) - "why RIP??" are now replaced by more logical THREAD_INFO(%rsp,SIZEOF_PTREGS) - "calculate thread_info's address using information that rsp is SIZEOF_PTREGS bytes below top of stack". While at it, replace "(off)-THREAD_SIZE(reg)" with equivalent "((off)-THREAD_SIZE)(reg)". The form without parentheses falsely looks like we invoke THREAD_SIZE() macro. Improve comment atop THREAD_INFO macro definition. This patch does not change generated code (verified by objdump).

Having syscall32/sysenter32 initialization in a separate tiny function, called from within a function that is already syscall init specific, serves no real purpose. Its existense also caused an unintended effect of having wrmsrl(MSR_CSTAR) performed twice: once we set it to a dummy function returning -ENOSYS, and immediately after (if CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION), we set it to point to the proper syscall32 entry point, ia32_cstar_target.

user_mode() is dangerous and user_mode_vm() has a confusing name. Add user_mode_ignore_vm86() (equivalent to current user_mode()).

Brian Gerst authored
Both the execve() and sigreturn() family of syscalls have the ability to change registers in ways that may not be compatabile with the syscall path they were called from. In particular, SYSRET and SYSEXIT can't handle non-default %cs and %ss, and some bits in eflags. These syscalls have stubs that are hardcoded to jump to the IRET path, and not return to the original syscall path. The following commit: 76f5df43 ("Always allocate a complete "struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack") recently changed this for some 32-bit compat syscalls, but introduced a bug where execve from a 32-bit program to a 64-bit program would fail because it still returned via SYSRETL. This caused Wine to fail when built for both 32-bit and 64-bit. This patch sets TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME for execve() and sigreturn() so that the IRET path is always taken on exit to userspace.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These are fixes for recent regressions (PCI/ACPI resources and at91 RTC locking), a stable-candidate powercap RAPL driver fix and two ARM cpuidle fixes (one stable-candidate too). Specifics: - Revert a recent PCI commit related to IRQ resources management that introduced a regression for drivers attempting to bind to devices whose previous drivers did not balance pci_enable_device() and pci_disable_device() as expected (Rafael J Wysocki). - Fix a deadlock in at91_rtc_interrupt() introduced by a typo in a recent commit related to wakeup interrupt handling (Dan Carpenter). - Allow the power capping RAPL (Running-Average Power Limit) driver to use different energy units for domains within one CPU package which is necessary to handle Intel Haswell EP processors correctly (Jacob Pan). - Improve the cpuidle mvebu driver's handling of Armada XP SoCs by updating the target residency and exit latency numbers for those chips (Sebastien Rannou). - Prevent the cpuidle mvebu driver from calling cpu_pm_enter() twice in a row before cpu_pm_exit() is called on the same CPU which breaks the core's assumptions regarding the usage of those functions (Gregory Clement)" * tag 'pm+acpi-4.0-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: Revert "x86/PCI: Refine the way to release PCI IRQ resources" rtc: at91rm9200: double locking bug in at91_rtc_interrupt() powercap / RAPL: handle domains with different energy units cpuidle: mvebu: Update cpuidle thresholds for Armada XP SOCs cpuidle: mvebu: Fix the CPU PM notifier usage
