Only the posix timer system calls use this (when the posix timer support is disabled, which does not actually happen in any normal case), because they had debug code to print out a warning about missing system calls. Get rid of that special case, and just use the standard COND_SYSCALL interface that creates weak system call stubs that return -ENOSYS for when the system call does not exist. This fixes a kCFI issue with the SYS_NI() hackery: CFI failure at int80_emulation+0x67/0xb0 (target: sys_ni_posix_timers+0x0/0x70; expected type: 0xb02b34d9) WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 48 at int80_emulation+0x67/0xb0 Reported-by: kernel test robot <oliver.sang@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com> Tested-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
It is currently possible for a userspace application to enter an
infinite page fault loop when using HugeTLB pages implemented with
contiguous PTEs when HAFDBS is not available. This happens because:
1. The kernel may sometimes write PTEs that are sw-dirty but hw-clean
(PTE_DIRTY | PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE).
2. If, during a write, the CPU uses a sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE in handling
the memory access on a system without HAFDBS, we will get a page
fault.
3. HugeTLB will check if it needs to update the dirty bits on the PTE.
For contiguous PTEs, it will check to see if the pgprot bits need
updating. In this case, HugeTLB wants to write a sequence of
sw-dirty, hw-dirty PTEs, but it finds that all the PTEs it is about
to overwrite are all pte_dirty() (pte_sw_dirty() => pte_dirty()),
so it thinks no update is necessary.
We can get the kernel to write a sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE with the
following steps (showing the relevant VMA flags and pgprot bits):
i. Create a valid, writable contiguous PTE.
VMA vmflags: VM_SHARED | VM_READ | VM_WRITE
VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE
PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_WRITE
ii. mprotect the VMA to PROT_NONE.
VMA vmflags: VM_SHARED
VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY
PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_RDONLY
iii. mprotect the VMA back to PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE.
VMA vmflags: VM_SHARED | VM_READ | VM_WRITE
VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE
PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_WRITE | PTE_RDONLY
Make it impossible to create a writeable sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE with
pte_modify(). Such a PTE should be impossible to create, and there may
be places that assume that pte_dirty() implies pte_hw_dirty().

When CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED=y, passing "rodata=on" on the
kernel command-line (rather than "rodata=full") should turn off the
"full" behaviour, leaving writable linear aliases of read-only kernel
memory. Unfortunately, the option has no effect in this situation and
the only way to disable the "rodata=full" behaviour is to disable rodata
protection entirely by passing "rodata=off".
Fix this by parsing the "on" and "off" options in the arch code,
additionally enforcing that 'rodata_full' cannot be set without also
setting 'rodata_enabled', allowing us to simplify a couple of checks
in the process.

Commit 6ac19f96515e ("arm64: avoid prototype warnings for syscalls")
added missing declarations to various syscall wrapper macros. It
however proved a little too zealous in __SYSCALL_DEFINEx(), as a
declaration for __arm64_sys##name was already present. A declaration
is required before the call to ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION(), so keep
the original one and remove the new one.

The driver used to truncate several 64-bit registers such as PMCEID[n]
registers used to describe whether architectural and microarchitectural
events in range 0x4000-0x401f exist. Due to discarding the bits, the
driver made the events invisible, even if they existed.
Moreover, PMCCFILTR and PMCR registers have additional bits in the upper
32 bits. This patch makes them available although they aren't currently
used. Finally, functions handling PMXEVCNTR and PMXEVTYPER registers are
removed as they not being used at all.
