Andy Lutomirski 37a8f7c383 x86/asm: Move 'status' from thread_struct to thread_info
The TS_COMPAT bit is very hot and is accessed from code paths that mostly
also touch thread_info::flags.  Move it into struct thread_info to improve
cache locality.

The only reason it was in thread_struct is that there was a brief period
during which arch-specific fields were not allowed in struct thread_info.

Linus suggested further changing:

  ti->status &= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);

to:

  if (unlikely(ti->status & (TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED)))
          ti->status &= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);

on the theory that frequently dirtying the cacheline even in pure 64-bit
code that never needs to modify status hurts performance.  That could be a
reasonable followup patch, but I suspect it matters less on top of this
patch.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Ingo Molnar e4a81bfcaa x86/fpu: Rename fpu::fpstate_active to fpu::initialized
The x86 FPU code used to have a complex state machine where both the FPU
registers and the FPU state context could be 'active' (or inactive)
independently of each other - which enabled features like lazy FPU restore.

Much of this complexity is gone in the current code: now we basically can
have FPU-less tasks (kernel threads) that don't use (and save/restore) FPU
state at all, plus full FPU users that save/restore directly with no laziness
whatsoever.

But the fpu::fpstate_active still carries bits of the old complexity - meanwhile
this flag has become a simple flag that shows whether the FPU context saving
area in the thread struct is initialized and used, or not.

Rename it to fpu::initialized to express this simplicity in the name as well.

We are going to split <linux/sched/task_stack.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/task_stack.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Dmitry Safonov 6846351052 x86/signal: Add SA_{X32,IA32}_ABI sa_flags
Introduce new flags that defines which ABI to use on creating sigframe.
Those flags kernel will set according to sigaction syscall ABI,
which set handler for the signal being delivered.

So that will drop the dependency on TIF_IA32/TIF_X32 flags on signal deliver.
Those flags will be used only under CONFIG_COMPAT.

Similar way ARM uses sa_flags to differ in which mode deliver signal
for 26-bit applications (look at SA_THIRYTWO).

Masahiro Yamada 97f2645f35 tree-wide: replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED()
The use of config_enabled() against config options is ambiguous.  In
practical terms, config_enabled() is equivalent to IS_BUILTIN(), but the
author might have used it for the meaning of IS_ENABLED().  Using
IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN(), IS_MODULE() etc.  makes the intention
clearer.

This commit replaces config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() where possible.
This commit is only touching bool config options.

I noticed two cases where config_enabled() is used against a tristate
option:

 - config_enabled(CONFIG_HWMON)
  [ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/thermal.c ]

 - config_enabled(CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE)
  [ drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/opregion.c ]

I did not touch them because they should be converted to IS_BUILTIN()
in order to keep the logic, but I was not sure it was the authors'
intention.

Andy Lutomirski 609c19a385 x86/ptrace: Stop setting TS_COMPAT in ptrace code
Setting TS_COMPAT in ptrace is wrong: if we happen to do it during
syscall entry, then we'll confuse seccomp and audit.  (The former
isn't a security problem: seccomp is currently entirely insecure if a
malicious ptracer is attached.)  As a minimal fix, this patch adds a
new flag TS_I386_REGS_POKED that handles the ptrace special case.

Stas Sergeev 0b4521e8cf signals/sigaltstack, x86/signals: Unify the x86 sigaltstack check with other architectures
Currently x86's get_sigframe() checks for "current->sas_ss_size"
to determine whether there is a need to switch to sigaltstack.
The common practice used by all other arches is to check for
sas_ss_flags(sp) == 0

This patch makes the code consistent with other architectures.

The slight complexity of the patch is added by the optimization on
!sigstack check that was requested by Andy Lutomirski: sas_ss_flags(sp)==0
already implies that we are not on a sigstack, so the code is shuffled
to avoid the duplicate checking.

This patch should have no user-visible impact.

Dmitry Safonov abfb9498ee x86/entry: Rename is_{ia32,x32}_task() to in_{ia32,x32}_syscall()
The is_ia32_task()/is_x32_task() function names are a big misnomer: they
suggests that the compat-ness of a system call is a task property, which
is not true, the compatness of a system call purely depends on how it
was invoked through the system call layer.

A task may call 32-bit and 64-bit and x32 system calls without changing
any of its kernel visible state.

This specific minomer is also actively dangerous, as it might cause kernel
developers to use the wrong kind of security checks within system calls.

So rename it to in_{ia32,x32}_syscall().

Andy Lutomirski 6c25da5ad5 x86/signal/64: Re-add support for SS in the 64-bit signal context
This is a second attempt to make the improvements from c6f2062935
("x86/signal/64: Fix SS handling for signals delivered to 64-bit
programs"), which was reverted by 51adbfbba5c6 ("x86/signal/64: Add
support for SS in the 64-bit signal context").

This adds two new uc_flags flags.  UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS will be set for
all 64-bit signals (including x32).  It indicates that the saved SS
field is valid and that the kernel supports the new behavior.

The goal is to fix a problems with signal handling in 64-bit tasks:
SS wasn't saved in the 64-bit signal context, making it awkward to
determine what SS was at the time of signal delivery and making it
impossible to return to a non-flat SS (as calling sigreturn clobbers
SS).

This also made it extremely difficult for 64-bit tasks to return to
fully-defined 16-bit contexts, because only the kernel can easily do
espfix64, but sigreturn was unable to set a non-flag SS:ESP.
(DOSEMU has a monstrous hack to partially work around this
limitation.)

If we could go back in time, the correct fix would be to make 64-bit
signals work just like 32-bit signals with respect to SS: save it
in signal context, reset it when delivering a signal, and restore
it in sigreturn.

Unfortunately, doing that (as I tried originally) breaks DOSEMU:
DOSEMU wouldn't reset the signal context's SS when clearing the LDT
and changing the saved CS to 64-bit mode, since it predates the SS
context field existing in the first place.

This patch is a bit more complicated, and it tries to balance a
bunch of goals.  It makes most cases of changing ucontext->ss during
signal handling work as expected.

I do this by special-casing the interesting case.  On sigreturn,
ucontext->ss will be honored by default, unless the ucontext was
created from scratch by an old program and had a 64-bit CS
(unfortunately, CRIU can do this) or was the result of changing a
32-bit signal context to 64-bit without resetting SS (as DOSEMU
does).

For the benefit of new 64-bit software that uses segmentation (new
versions of DOSEMU might), the new behavior can be detected with a
new ucontext flag UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS.

To avoid compilation issues, __pad0 is left as an alias for ss in
ucontext.

The nitty-gritty details are documented in the header file.

This patch also re-enables the sigreturn_64 and ldt_gdt_64 selftests,
as the kernel change allows both of them to pass.

Andy Lutomirski 8ff5bd2e1e x86/signal/64: Fix SS if needed when delivering a 64-bit signal
Signals are always delivered to 64-bit tasks with CS set to a long
mode segment.  In long mode, SS doesn't matter as long as it's a
present writable segment.

If SS starts out invalid (this can happen if the signal was caused
by an IRET fault or was delivered on the way out of set_thread_area
or modify_ldt), then IRET to the signal handler can fail, eventually
killing the task.

The straightforward fix would be to simply reset SS when delivering
a signal.  That breaks DOSEMU, though: 64-bit builds of DOSEMU rely
on SS being set to the faulting SS when signals are delivered.

As a compromise, this patch leaves SS alone so long as it's valid.

The net effect should be that the behavior of successfully delivered
signals is unchanged.  Some signals that would previously have
failed to be delivered will now be delivered successfully.

This has no effect for x32 or 32-bit tasks: their signal handlers
were already called with SS == __USER_DS.

(On Xen, there's a slight hole: if a task sets SS to a writable
 *kernel* data segment, then we will fail to identify it as invalid
 and we'll still kill the task.  If anyone cares, this could be fixed
 with a new paravirt hook.)

Brian Gerst 5ed92a8ab7 x86/vm86: Use the normal pt_regs area for vm86
Change to use the normal pt_regs area to enter and exit vm86
mode.  This is done by increasing the padding at the top of the
stack to make room for the extra vm86 segment slots in the IRET
frame.  It then saves the 32-bit regs in the off-stack vm86
data, and copies in the vm86 regs.  Exiting back to 32-bit mode
does the reverse.  This allows removing the hacks to jump
directly into the exit asm code due to having to change the
stack pointer.  Returning normally from the vm86 syscall and the
exception handlers allows things like ptrace and auditing to work properly.

Ingo Molnar fbce778246 x86/fpu: Merge fpu__reset() and fpu__clear()
With recent cleanups and fixes the fpu__reset() and fpu__clear()
functions have become almost identical in functionality: the only
difference is that fpu__reset() assumed that the fpstate
was already active in the eagerfpu case, while fpu__clear()
activated it if it was inactive.

This distinction almost never matters, the only case where such
fpstate activation happens if if the init thread (PID 1) gets exec()-ed
for the first time.

So keep fpu__clear() and change all fpu__reset() uses to
fpu__clear() to simpify the logic.

( In a later patch we'll further simplify fpu__clear() by making
  sure that all contexts it is called on are already active. )

it is the high level 'restore FPU state from a signal frame' function

Ingo Molnar 5033861575 x86/fpu: Synchronize the naming of drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state()
drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state() are similar in functionality
and in scope, yet this is not apparent from their names.

drop_fpu() deactivates FPU contents (both the fpregs and the fpstate),
but leaves register contents intact in the eager-FPU case, mostly as an
optimization. It disables fpregs in the lazy FPU case. The drop_fpu()
method can be used to destroy FPU state in an optimized way, when we
know that a new state will be loaded before user-space might see
any remains of the old FPU state:

     - such as in sys_exit()'s exit_thread() where we know this task
       won't execute any user-space instructions anymore and the
       next context switch cleans up the FPU. The old FPU state
       might still be around in the eagerfpu case but won't be
       saved.

     - in __restore_xstate_sig(), where we use drop_fpu() before
       copying a new state into the fpstate and activating that one.
       No user-pace instructions can execute between those steps.

     - in sys_execve()'s fpu__clear(): there we use drop_fpu() in
       the !eagerfpu case, where it's equivalent to a full reinit.

fpu_reset_state() is a stronger version of drop_fpu(): both in
the eagerfpu and the lazy-FPU case it guarantees that fpregs
are reinitialized to init state. This method is used in cases
where we need a full reset:

     - handle_signal() uses fpu_reset_state() to reset the FPU state
       to init before executing a user-space signal handler. While we
       have already saved the original FPU state at this point, and
       always restore the original state, the signal handling code
       still has to do this reinit, because signals may interrupt
       any user-space instruction, and the FPU might be in various
       intermediate states (such as an unbalanced x87 stack) that is
       not immediately usable for general C signal handler code.

     - __restore_xstate_sig() uses fpu_reset_state() when the signal
       frame has no FP context. Since the signal handler may have
       modified the FPU state, it gets reset back to init state.

     - in another branch __restore_xstate_sig() uses fpu_reset_state()
       to handle a restoration error: when restore_user_xstate() fails
       to restore FPU state and we might have inconsistent FPU data,
       fpu_reset_state() is used to reset it back to a known good
       state.

     - __kernel_fpu_end() uses fpu_reset_state() in an error branch.
       This is in a 'must not trigger' error branch, so on bug-free
       kernels this never triggers.

     - fpu__restore() uses fpu_reset_state() in an error path
       as well: if the fpstate was set up with invalid FPU state
       (via ptrace or via a signal handler), then it's reset back
       to init state.

     - likewise, the scheduler's switch_fpu_finish() uses it in a
       restoration error path too.

Move both drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state() to the fpu__*() namespace
and harmonize their naming with their function:

    fpu__drop()
    fpu__reset()

This clearly shows that both methods operate on the full state of the
FPU, just like fpu__restore().

Also add comments to explain what each function does.

Ingo Molnar c8e1404120 x86/fpu: Rename save_xstate_sig() to copy_fpstate_to_sigframe()
Standardize the naming of save_xstate_sig() by renaming it to
copy_fpstate_to_sigframe(): this tells us at a glance that
the function copies an FPU fpstate to a signal frame.

This naming also follows the naming of copy_fpregs_to_fpstate().

Don't put 'xstate' into the name: since this is a generic name,
it's expected that the function is able to handle xstate frames
as well, beyond legacy frames.

xstate used to be the odd case in the x86 FPU code - now it's the
common case.

Ingo Molnar c5bedc6847 x86/fpu: Get rid of PF_USED_MATH usage, convert it to fpu->fpstate_active
Introduce a simple fpu->fpstate_active flag in the fpu context data structure
and use that instead of PF_USED_MATH in task->flags.

Testing for this flag byte should be slightly more efficient than
testing a bit in a bitmask, but the main advantage is that most
FPU functions can now be performed on a 'struct fpu' alone, they
don't need access to 'struct task_struct' anymore.

There's a slight linecount increase, mostly due to the 'fpu' local
variables and due to extra comments. The local variables will go away
once we move most of the FPU methods to pure 'struct fpu' parameters.

Oleg Nesterov fd0f86b664 x86/ptrace: Fix the TIF_FORCED_TF logic in handle_signal()
When the TIF_SINGLESTEP tracee dequeues a signal,
handle_signal() clears TIF_FORCED_TF and X86_EFLAGS_TF but
leaves TIF_SINGLESTEP set.

If the tracer does PTRACE_SINGLESTEP again, enable_single_step()
sets X86_EFLAGS_TF but not TIF_FORCED_TF.  This means that the
subsequent PTRACE_CONT doesn't not clear X86_EFLAGS_TF, and the
tracee gets the wrong SIGTRAP.

Test-case (needs -O2 to avoid prologue insns in signal handler):

	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <sys/ptrace.h>
	#include <sys/wait.h>
	#include <sys/user.h>
	#include <assert.h>
	#include <stddef.h>

	void handler(int n)
	{
		asm("nop");
	}

	int child(void)
	{
		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0);
		signal(SIGALRM, handler);
		kill(getpid(), SIGALRM);
		return 0x23;
	}

	void *getip(int pid)
	{
		return (void*)ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKUSER, pid,
					offsetof(struct user, regs.rip), 0);
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		int pid, status;

		pid = fork();
		if (!pid)
			return child();

		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGALRM);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, pid, 0, SIGALRM) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGTRAP);
		assert((getip(pid) - (void*)handler) == 0);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, pid, 0, SIGALRM) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGTRAP);
		assert((getip(pid) - (void*)handler) == 1);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFEXITED(status) && WEXITSTATUS(status) == 0x23);

		return 0;
	}

The last assert() fails because PTRACE_CONT wrongly triggers
another single-step and X86_EFLAGS_TF can't be cleared by
debugger until the tracee does sys_rt_sigreturn().

Change handle_signal() to do user_disable_single_step() if
stepping, we do not need to preserve TIF_SINGLESTEP because we
are going to do ptrace_notify(), and it is simply wrong to leak
this bit.

While at it, change the comment to explain why we also need to
clear TF unconditionally after setup_rt_frame().

Note: in the longer term we should probably change
setup_sigcontext() to use get_flags() and then just remove this
user_disable_single_step().  And, the state of TIF_FORCED_TF can
be wrong after restore_sigcontext() which can set/clear TF, this
needs another fix.

This fix fixes the 'single_step_syscall_32' testcase in
the x86 testsuite:

Before:

	~/linux/tools/testing/selftests/x86> ./single_step_syscall_32
	[RUN]   Set TF and check nop
	[OK]    Survived with TF set and 9 traps

In 2007 sigaltstack syscall support was added, where the return
value of restore_sigcontext() was changed to carry the memory-copying
failure code.

But instead of putting 'ax' into regs->ax directly, it was carried
in via a pointer and then returned, where the generic syscall return
code copied it to regs->ax.

So there was never any deeper reason for this suboptimal pattern, it
was simply never noticed after being introduced.

Borislav Petkov b85e67d148 x86/fpu: Rename drop_init_fpu() to fpu_reset_state()
Call it what it does and in accordance with the context where it is
used: we reset the FPU state either because we were unable to restore it
from the one saved in the task or because we simply want to reset it.
