preempt/dynamic: Fix typo in macro conditional statement

2021-04-19T18:02:57+00:00

Commit 40607ee97e4e ("preempt/dynamic: Provide irqentry_exit_cond_resched()
static call") tried to provide irqentry_exit_cond_resched() static call
in irqentry_exit, but has a typo in macro conditional statement.

entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point

2021-02-17T13:12:43+00:00

Following the idle loop model, cleanly check for pending rcuog wakeup
before the last rescheduling point on resuming to user mode. This
way we can avoid to do it from rcu_user_enter() with the last resort
self-IPI hack that enforces rescheduling.

preempt/dynamic: Provide irqentry_exit_cond_resched() static call

2021-02-17T13:12:42+00:00

Provide static call to control IRQ preemption (called in CONFIG_PREEMPT)
so that we can override its behaviour when preempt= is overriden.

Since the default behaviour is full preemption, its call is
initialized to provide IRQ preemption when preempt= isn't passed.

entry: Use different define for selector variable in SUD

2021-02-05T23:21:42+00:00

Michael Kerrisk suggested that, from an API perspective, it is a bad
idea to share the PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ defines between the prctl operation
and the selector variable.

Therefore, define two new constants to be used by SUD's selector variable
and update the corresponding documentation and test cases.

While this changes the API syscall user dispatch has never been part of a
Linux release, it will show up for the first time in 5.11.

entry: Ensure trap after single-step on system call return

2021-02-05T23:21:42+00:00

Commit 299155244770 ("entry: Drop usage of TIF flags in the generic syscall
code") introduced a bug on architectures using the generic syscall entry
code, in which processes stopped by PTRACE_SYSCALL do not trap on syscall
return after receiving a TIF_SINGLESTEP.

The reason is that the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP flag is overloaded to
cause the trap after a system call is executed, but since the above commit,
the syscall call handler only checks for the SYSCALL_WORK flags on the exit
work.

Split the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP such that it only means single-step
mode, and create a new type of SYSCALL_WORK to request a trap immediately
after a syscall in single-step mode.  In the current implementation, the
SYSCALL_WORK flag shadows the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag for simplicity.

Update x86 to flip this bit when a tracer enables single stepping.

entry: Unbreak single step reporting behaviour

2021-01-28T12:46:55+00:00

The move of TIF_SYSCALL_EMU to SYSCALL_WORK_SYSCALL_EMU broke single step
reporting. The original code reported the single step when TIF_SINGLESTEP
was set and TIF_SYSCALL_EMU was not set. The SYSCALL_WORK conversion got
the logic wrong and now the reporting only happens when both bits are set.

Restore the original behaviour.

Pull kmap updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The new preemtible kmap_local() implementation:

   - Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic
     implementation which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and
     make the kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the
     disabling/enabling of preemption and pagefaults.

   - Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
     support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
     when scheduling back in.

   - Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
     scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
     interface available which does not disable preemption when a
     mapping is established. It has to disable migration instead to
     guarantee that the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same
     across preemption.

   - Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced
     utilization of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the
     architecture allows it.

   - Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup
     the kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage
     sites do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and
     pagefaults so the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is
     removed and quite some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale
     conversion is not possible because some usage depends on the
     implicit side effects and some need to be cleaned up because they
     work around these side effects.

     The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem
     systems and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit
     non-highmem systems the overhead is completely avoided"

entry: Add syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work()

2020-12-02T14:07:58+00:00

This is the same as syscall_exit_to_user_mode() but without calling
exit_to_user_mode(). This can be used if there is an architectural reason
to avoid the combo function, e.g. restarting a syscall without returning to
userspace. Before returning to user space the caller has to invoke
exit_to_user_mode().
