2018-11-27x86/build: Use cc-option to validate stack alignment parameterMatthias Kaehlcke
commit 9e8730b178a2472fca3123e909d6e69cc8127778 upstream. With the following commit: 8f91869766c0 ("x86/build: Fix stack alignment for CLang") cc-option is only used to determine the name of the stack alignment option supported by the compiler, but not to verify that the actual parameter <option>=N is valid in combination with the other CFLAGS. This causes problems (as reported by the kbuild robot) with older GCC versions which only support stack alignment on a boundary of 16 bytes or higher. Also use (__)cc_option to add the stack alignment option to CFLAGS to make sure only valid options are added.

2018-11-27x86/build: Fix stack alignment for CLangMatthias Kaehlcke
commit 8f91869766c00622b2eaa8ee567db4f333b78c1a upstream. Commit: d77698df39a5 ("x86/build: Specify stack alignment for clang") intended to use the same stack alignment for clang as with gcc. The two compilers use different options to configure the stack alignment (gcc: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=n, clang: -mstack-alignment=n). The above commit assumes that the clang option uses the same parameter type as gcc, i.e. that the alignment is specified as 2^n. However clang interprets the value of this option literally to use an alignment of n, in consequence the stack remains misaligned. Change the values used with -mstack-alignment to be the actual alignment instead of a power of two. cc-option isn't used here with the typical pattern of KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option ...). The reason is that older gcc versions don't support the -mpreferred-stack-boundary option, since cc-option doesn't verify whether the alternative option is valid it would incorrectly select the clang option -mstack-alignment..

2018-11-27x86/build: Specify stack alignment for clangMatthias Kaehlcke
commit d77698df39a512911586834d303275ea5fda74d0 upstream. For gcc stack alignment is configured with -mpreferred-stack-boundary=N, clang has the option -mstack-alignment=N for that purpose. Use the same alignment as with gcc. If the alignment is not specified clang assumes an alignment of 16 bytes, as required by the standard ABI. However as mentioned in d9b0cde91c60 ("x86-64, gcc: Use -mpreferred-stack-boundary=3 if supported") the standard kernel entry on x86-64 leaves the stack on an 8-byte boundary, as a consequence clang will keep the stack misaligned.

2018-11-27x86/build: Use __cc-option for boot code compiler optionsMatthias Kaehlcke
commit 032a2c4f65a2f81c93e161a11197ba19bc14a909 upstream. cc-option is used to enable compiler options for the boot code if they are available. The macro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for the check, however these flags aren't used to build the boot code, in consequence cc-option can yield wrong results. For example -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is never set with a 64-bit compiler, since the setting is only valid for 16 and 32-bit binaries. This is also the case for 32-bit kernel builds, because the option -m32 is added to KBUILD_CFLAGS after the assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS. Use __cc-option instead of cc-option for the boot mode options. The macro receives the compiler options as parameter instead of using KBUILD_C*FLAGS, for the boot code we pass REALMODE_CFLAGS. Also use separate statements for the __cc-option checks instead of performing them in the initial assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS since the variable is an input of the macro.

2018-03-28x86/build/64: Force the linker to use 2MB page sizeH.J. Lu
commit e3d03598e8ae7d195af5d3d049596dec336f569f upstream. Binutils 2.31 will enable -z separate-code by default for x86 to avoid mixing code pages with data to improve cache performance as well as security. To reduce x86-64 executable and shared object sizes, the maximum page size is reduced from 2MB to 4KB. But x86-64 kernel must be aligned to 2MB. Pass -z max-page-size=0x200000 to linker to force 2MB page size regardless of the default page size used by linker. Tested with Linux kernel 4.15.6 on x86-64. Signed-off-by: H.J.

2018-01-23x86/retpoline: Remove compile time warningThomas Gleixner
commit b8b9ce4b5aec8de9e23cabb0a26b78641f9ab1d6 upstream. Remove the compile time warning when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and the compiler does not have retpoline support. Linus rationale for this is: It's wrong because it will just make people turn off RETPOLINE, and the asm updates - and return stack clearing - that are independent of the compiler are likely the most important parts because they are likely the ones easiest to target. And it's annoying because most people won't be able to do anything about it. The number of people building their own compiler? Very small. So if their distro hasn't got a compiler yet (and pretty much nobody does), the warning is just annoying crap. It is already properly reported as part of the sysfs interface. The compile-time warning only encourages bad things.

2018-01-23x86/retpoline: Add initial retpoline supportDavid Woodhouse
commit 76b043848fd22dbf7f8bf3a1452f8c70d557b860 upstream. Enable the use of -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern in newer GCC, and provide the corresponding thunks. Provide assembler macros for invoking the thunks in the same way that GCC does, from native and inline assembler. This adds X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE and sets it by default on all CPUs. In some circumstances, IBRS microcode features may be used instead, and the retpoline can be disabled. On AMD CPUs if lfence is serialising, the retpoline can be dramatically simplified to a simple "lfence; jmp *\reg". A future patch, after it has been verified that lfence really is serialising in all circumstances, can enable this by setting the X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE_AMD feature bit in addition to X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE. Do not align the retpoline in the altinstr section, because there is no guarantee that it stays aligned when it's copied over the oldinstr during alternative patching.

2015-07-22x86/build: Fix detection of GCC -mpreferred-stack-boundary supportAndy Lutomirski
As per: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53383 GCC only allows -mpreferred-stack-boundary=3 on x86_64 if -mno-sse is set. That means that cc-option will not detect -mpreferred-stack-boundary=3 support, because we test for it before setting -mno-sse. Fix it by reordering the Makefile bits. Compile-tested only. This should help avoid code generation issues such as the one that was worked around in: b96fecbfa8c8 ("x86/fpu: Fix boot crash in the early FPU code") I'm a bit concerned that we could still have problems on older GCC versions given that our asm code does not respect GCC's idea of the ABI-required stack alignment.

2015-06-02x86/debug: Remove perpetually broken, unmaintainable dwarf annotationsIngo Molnar
So the dwarf2 annotations in low level assembly code have become an increasing hindrance: unreadable, messy macros mixed into some of the most security sensitive code paths of the Linux kernel. These debug info annotations don't even buy the upstream kernel anything: dwarf driven stack unwinding has caused problems in the past so it's out of tree, and the upstream kernel only uses the much more robust framepointers based stack unwinding method. In addition to that there's a steady, slow bitrot going on with these annotations, requiring frequent fixups. There's no tooling and no functionality upstream that keeps it correct. So burn down the sick forest, allowing new, healthier growth: 27 files changed, 350 insertions(+), 1101 deletions(-) Someone who has the willingness and time to do this properly can attempt to reintroduce dwarf debuginfo in x86 assembly code plus dwarf unwinding from first principles, with the following conditions: - it should be maximally readable, and maximally low-key to 'ordinary' code reading and maintenance. - find a build time method to insert dwarf annotations automatically in the most common cases, for pop/push instructions that manipulate the stack pointer. This could be done for example via a preprocessing step that just looks for common patterns - plus special annotations for the few cases where we want to depart from the default. We have hundreds of CFI annotations, so automating most of that makes sense. - it should come with build tooling checks that ensure that CFI annotations are sensible. We've seen such efforts from the framepointer side, and there's no reason it couldn't be done on the dwarf side.

2015-05-17x86: Pack loops tightly as wellIngo Molnar
Packing loops tightly (-falign-loops=1) is beneficial to code size: text data bss dec filename 12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte 12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte 11976567 1617840 1089536 14683943 vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte 11903735 1617840 1089536 14611111 vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte.loops-1-byte Which reduces the size of the kernel by another 0.6%, so the the total combined size reduction of the alignment-packing patches is ~5.5%. The x86 decoder bandwidth and caching arguments laid out in: be6cb02779ca ("x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundaries") apply to loop alignment as well. Furtermore, modern CPU uarchs have a loop cache/buffer that is a L0 cache before even any uop cache, covering a few dozen most recently executed instructions. This loop cache generally does not have the 16-byte alignment restrictions of the uop cache. Now loop alignment can still be beneficial if: - a loop is cache-hot and its surroundings are not. - if the loop is so cache hot that the instruction flow becomes x86 decoder bandwidth limited But loop alignment is harmful if: - a loop is cache-cold - a loop's surroundings are cache-hot as well - two cache-hot loops are close to each other - if the loop fits into the loop cache - if the code flow is not decoder bandwidth limited and I'd argue that the latter five scenarios are much more common in the kernel, as our hottest loops are typically: - pointer chasing: this should fit into the loop cache in most cases and is typically data cache and address generation limited - generic memory ops (memset, memcpy, etc.): these generally fit into the loop cache as well, and are likewise data cache limited.

2015-05-15x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundariesIngo Molnar
The following NOP in a hot function caught my attention: > 5a: 66 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) That's a dead NOP that bloats the function a bit, added for the default 16-byte alignment that GCC applies for jump targets. I realize that x86 CPU manufacturers recommend 16-byte jump target alignments (it's in the Intel optimization manual), to help their relatively narrow decoder prefetch alignment and uop cache constraints, but the cost of that is very significant: text data bss dec filename 12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte 12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte By using 1-byte jump target alignment (i.e. no alignment at all) we get an almost 3% reduction in kernel size (!) - and a probably similar reduction in I$ footprint. Now, the usual justification for jump target alignment is the following: - modern decoders tend to have 16-byte (effective) decoder prefetch windows. (AMD documents it higher but measurements suggest the effective prefetch window on curretn uarchs is still around 16 bytes) - on Intel there's also the uop-cache with cachelines that have 16-byte granularity and limited associativity. - older x86 uarchs had a penalty for decoder fetches that crossed 16-byte boundaries. These limits are mostly gone from recent uarchs. So if a forward jump target is aligned to cacheline boundary then prefetches will start from a new prefetch-cacheline and there's higher chance for decoding in fewer steps and packing tightly. But I think that argument is flawed for typical optimized kernel code flows: forward jumps often go to 'cold' (uncommon) pieces of code, and aligning cold code to cache lines does not bring a lot of advantages (they are uncommon), while it causes collateral damage: - their alignment 'spreads out' the cache footprint, it shifts followup hot code further out - plus it slows down even 'cold' code that immediately follows 'hot' code (like in the above case), which could have benefited from the partial cacheline that comes off the end of hot code. But even in the cache-hot case the 16 byte alignment brings disadvantages: - it spreads out the cache footprint, possibly making the code fall out of the L1 I$. - On Intel CPUs, recent microarchitectures have plenty of uop cache (typically doubling every 3 years) - while the size of the L1 cache grows much less aggressively. So workloads are rarely uop cache limited. The only situation where alignment might matter are tight loops that could fit into a single 16 byte chunk - but those are pretty rare in the kernel: if they exist they tend to be pointer chasing or generic memory ops, which both tend to be cache miss (or cache allocation) intensive and are not decoder bandwidth limited. So the balance of arguments strongly favors packing kernel instructions tightly versus maximizing for decoder bandwidth: this patch changes the jump target alignment from 16 bytes to 1 byte (tightly packed, unaligned).

2015-05-06x86/asm: Use -mskip-rax-setup if supportedH.J. Lu
GCC 5 added a compiler option, -mskip-rax-setup, for x86-64. It skips setting up the RAX register when SSE is disabled and there are no variable arguments passed in vector registers. (According to the x86_64 ABI, %al is used as a hidden register containing the number of vector registers used). Since the kernel doesn't pass vector registers to functions with variable arguments, this option can be used to optimize the x86-64 kernel. This GCC feature was suggested by Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>. This is the corresponding kernel change using it.

The options -mno-mmx and -mno-sse are unconditionally added to KBUILD_CFLAGS in both branches of an ifeq and through a $(cc-option) further down. We can safely remove the first instances. In fact, since the -mno-mmx and -mno-sse options were introduced simultaneous with the other two options in the $(cc-option) [according to http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/gcc-3.1/changes.html], and since the former were unconditionally used, one can deduce that only gcc versions knowing about all four are supported.

2014-08-29kexec: create a new config option CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE for new syscallVivek Goyal
Currently new system call kexec_file_load() and all the associated code compiles if CONFIG_KEXEC=y. But new syscall also compiles purgatory code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large. This option seems to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards. Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break existing users of old gcc. Those who wish to enable new functionality will require new gcc. Having said that, I am trying to figure out how can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while. I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config option. As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used. This new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y. And all other arches had to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC. Now with introduction of new config option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches. Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64. So whereever I had CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that. For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to "depends on CRYPTO=y". This should be safer as "select" is not recursive. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: H.

2014-08-08purgatory: core purgatory functionalityVivek Goyal
Create a stand alone relocatable object purgatory which runs between two kernels. This name, concept and some code has been taken from kexec-tools. Idea is that this code runs after a crash and it runs in minimal environment. So keep it separate from rest of the kernel and in long term we will have to practically do no maintenance of this code. This code also has the logic to do verify sha256 hashes of various segments which have been loaded into memory. So first we verify that the kernel we are jumping to is fine and has not been corrupted and make progress only if checsums are verified. This code also takes care of copying some memory contents to backup region.

2014-02-04x86: Disable generation of traditional x87 instructionsBorislav Petkov
We recently had the case where wrongly used floating-constant 'E' caused the generation of traditional x87 instructions in kernel code and wreaking all kinds of havoc. Disable the generation of those too. This will save people a lot of time when trying to debug such issues by erroring out of the build instead of let them manifest themselves in very spectacular and happy-crappy ways at runtime. We're using -mno-fp-ret-in-387 in addition to -mno-80387 (which is == -msoft-float) because, as the gcc manpage says: On machines where a function returns floating-point results in the 80387 register stack, some floating-point opcodes may be emitted even if -msoft-float is used. so we want to turn off *all* non-integer instructions involving any architectural FPU state, unless it is absolutely necessary (and those cases need special handling anyway).

Only kernels that need relocation support will use the code (currently just x86_32), but this is laying the ground work for 64-bit using it in support of KASLR. Based on work by Neill Clift and Michael Davidson.

2013-05-28x86, platform, kvm, kconfig: Turn existing .config's into KVM-capable configsBorislav Petkov
Add an config file snippet which enables additional options useful for running the kernel in a kvm guest. When you execute 'make kvmconfig' it merges those options with an already existing user config before you build the kernel. Based on an patch from the external lkvm tree.
