The current assumption is that kernel code is always executed with access
key zero, which means that storage key protection does not apply.
However this assumption is not correct: cmpxchg_user_key() may be executed
with a non-zero key; if then the storage key of the page which belongs to
the cmpxchg_user_key() code contains a key with fetch-protection enabled
the result is a protection exception.
For several performance optimizations storage keys are not initialized on
system boot. To keep these optimizations add infrastructure which allows to
define code ranges within functions which are executed with a non-default
key. When such code is executed such functions must explicitly call
skey_regions_initialize().
This will initialize all storage keys belonging to such code ranges in a
way that no protection exceptions happen when the code is executed with a
non-default access key.

The fixup section was added again by mistake when test_fp_ctl() was
removed. The reason for the removal of the fixup section is described in
commit 484a8ed8b7d1 ("s390/extable: add dedicated uaccess handler").
Remove it again for the same reason.
Add an exception handler which handles exceptions when the floating point
control register is attempted to be set to invalid values. The exception
handler sets the floating point control register to zero and continues
execution at the specified address.
The new sfpc inline assembly is open-coded to make back porting a bit
easier.

Symbol offsets to the KASLR base do not match symbol address in
the vmlinux image. That is the result of setting the KASLR base
to the beginning of .text section as result of an optimization.
Revert that optimization and allocate virtual memory for the
whole kernel image including __START_KERNEL bytes as per the
linker script. That allows keeping the semantics of the KASLR
base offset in sync with other architectures.
Rename __START_KERNEL to TEXT_OFFSET, since it represents the
offset of the .text section within the kernel image, rather than
a virtual address.
Still skip mapping TEXT_OFFSET bytes to save memory on pgtables
and provoke exceptions in case an attempt to access this area is
made, as no kernel symbol may reside there.
In case CONFIG_KASAN is enabled the location counter might exceed
the value of TEXT_OFFSET, while the decompressor linker script
forcefully resets it to TEXT_OFFSET, which leads to a sections
overlap link failure. Use MAX() expression to avoid that.

When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option enabled it
uses dynamic symbols, for which the linker does not allow more
than 64K number of entries. This can break features like kpatch.
Hence, whenever possible the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD
option disabled. For that support of unaligned symbols generated by
linker scripts in the compiler is necessary.
However, older compilers might lack such support. In that case the
build process resorts to CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled build.
Compile object files with -fPIC option and then link the kernel
binary with -no-pie linker option.
As result, the dynamic symbols are not generated and not only kpatch
feature succeeds, but also the whole CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled
code could be dropped.

Rework deployment of kernel image for both compressed and
uncompressed variants as defined by CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED
kernel configuration variable.
In case CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is disabled avoid uncompressing
the kernel to a temporary buffer and copying it to the target
address. Instead, uncompress it directly to the target destination.
In case CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is enabled avoid moving the
kernel to default 0x100000 location when KASLR is disabled or
failed. Instead, use the uncompressed kernel image directly.
In case KASLR is disabled or failed .amode31 section location in
memory is not randomized and precedes the kernel image. In case
CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is disabled that location overlaps the
area used by the decompression algorithm. That is fine, since that
area is not used after the decompression finished and the size of
.amode31 section is not expected to exceed BOOT_HEAP_SIZE ever.
There is no decompression in case CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is
enabled. Therefore, rename decompress_kernel() to deploy_kernel(),
which better describes both uncompressed and compressed cases.
Introduce AMODE31_SIZE macro to avoid immediate value of 0x3000
(the size of .amode31 section) in the decompressor linker script.
Modify the vmlinux linker script to force the size of .amode31
section to AMODE31_SIZE (the value of (_eamode31 - _samode31)
could otherwise differ as result of compiler options used).
Introduce __START_KERNEL macro that defines the kernel ELF image
entry point and set it to the currrent value of 0x100000.

On s390, currently kernel uses the '-fPIE' compiler flag for compiling
vmlinux. This has a few problems:
- It uses dynamic symbols (.dynsym), for which the linker refuses to
allow more than 64k sections. This can break features which use
'-ffunction-sections' and '-fdata-sections', including kpatch-build
[1] and Function Granular KASLR.
- It unnecessarily uses GOT relocations, adding an extra layer of
indirection for many memory accesses.
Instead of using '-fPIE', resolve all the relocations at link time and
then manually adjust any absolute relocations (R_390_64) during boot.
This is done by first telling the linker to preserve all relocations
during the vmlinux link. (Note this is harmless: they are later
stripped in the vmlinux.bin link.)
Then use the 'relocs' tool to find all absolute relocations (R_390_64)
which apply to allocatable sections. The offsets of those relocations
are saved in a special section which is then used to adjust the
relocations during boot.
(Note: For some reason, Clang occasionally creates a GOT reference, even
without '-fPIE'. So Clang-compiled kernels have a GOT, which needs to
be adjusted.)
On my mostly-defconfig kernel, this reduces kernel text size by ~1.3%.

[3] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2023-August/625986.html
Compiler consideration:
Gcc recently implemented an optimization [2] for loading symbols without
explicit alignment, aligning with the IBM Z ELF ABI. This ABI mandates
symbols to reside on a 2-byte boundary, enabling the use of the larl
instruction. However, kernel linker scripts may still generate unaligned
symbols. To address this, a new -munaligned-symbols option has been
introduced [3] in recent gcc versions. This option has to be used with
future gcc versions.
Older Clang lacks support for handling unaligned symbols generated
by kernel linker scripts when the kernel is built without -fPIE. However,
future versions of Clang will include support for the -munaligned-symbols
option. When the support is unavailable, compile the kernel with -fPIE
to maintain the existing behavior.
In addition to it:
move vmlinux.relocs to safe relocation
When the kernel is built with CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED, the entire
uncompressed vmlinux.bin is positioned in the bzImage decompressor
image at the default kernel LMA of 0x100000, enabling it to be executed
in-place. However, the size of .vmlinux.relocs could be large enough to
cause an overlap with the uncompressed kernel at the address 0x100000.
To address this issue, .vmlinux.relocs is positioned after the
.rodata.compressed in the bzImage. Nevertheless, in this configuration,
vmlinux.relocs will overlap with the .bss section of vmlinux.bin. To
overcome that, move vmlinux.relocs to a safe location before clearing
.bss and handling relocs.
Compile warning fix from Sumanth Korikkar:
When kernel is built with CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN and -fno-PIE, there are
several warnings:
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.iplt' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.head.text' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.init.text' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.rodata.cst8' from
`arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn'
Orphan sections are sections that exist in an object file but don't have
a corresponding output section in the final executable. ld raises a
warning when it identifies such sections.
Eliminate the warning by placing all .rela orphan sections in .rela.dyn
and raise an error when size of .rela.dyn is greater than zero. i.e.
Dont just neglect orphan sections.
This is similar to adjustment performed in x86, where kernel is built
with -fno-PIE.

It is quite subtle to use test_fp_ctl() correctly. Therefore remove it -
instead copy whatever new floating point control (fpc) register values are
supposed to be used into its save area.
Test the validity of the new value when loading it. If the new value is
invalid, load the fpc register with zero.
This seems to be a the best way to approach this problem. Even though this
changes behavior:
- sigreturn with an invalid fpc value on the stack will succeed, and
continue with zero value, instead of returning with SIGSEGV
- ptraced processes will also use a zero value instead of letting the
request fail with -EINVAL
However all of this seems to acceptable. After all testing of the value was
only implemented to avoid that user space can crash the kernel. It is not
there to test values for validity; and the assumption is that there is no
existing user space which is doing this.

Since regular paging structs are initialized in decompressor already
move KASAN shadow mapping to decompressor as well. This helps to avoid
allocating KASAN required memory in 1 large chunk, de-duplicate paging
structs creation code and start the uncompressed kernel with KASAN
instrumentation right away. This also allows to avoid all pitfalls
accidentally calling KASAN instrumented code during KASAN initialization.

Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Large cleanup of the con3270/tty3270 driver. Among others this fixes:
- Background Color Support
- ASCII Line Character Support
- VT100 Support
- Geometries other than 80x24
- Cleanup and improve cmpxchg() code. Also add cmpxchg_user_key() to
uaccess functions, which will be used by KVM to access KVM guest
memory with a specific storage key
- Add support for user space events counting to CPUMF
- Cleanup the vfio/ccw code, which also allows now to properly support
2K Format-2 IDALs
- Move kernel page table allocation and initialization to decompressor,
which finally allows to enter the kernel with dynamic address
translation enabled. This in turn allows to get rid of code with
special handling in the kernel, which has to distinguish if DAT is on
or off
- Replace kretprobe with rethook
- Various improvements to vfio/ap queue resets:
- Use TAPQ to verify completion of a reset in progress rather than
multiple invocations of ZAPQ.
- Check TAPQ response codes when verifying successful completion of
ZAPQ.
- Fix erroneous handling of some error response codes.
- Increase the maximum amount of time to wait for successful
completion of ZAPQ
- Rework system call wrappers to get rid of alias functions, which were
only left on s390
- Cleanup diag288_wdt watchdog driver. It has been agreed on with
Guenter Roeck that this goes upstream via the s390 tree
- Add missing loadparm parameter handling for list-directed ECKD
ipl/reipl
- Various improvements to memory detection code
- Remove arch_cpu_idle_time() since the current implementation is
broken, and allows user space observable accounted idle times which
can temporarily decrease
- Add Reset DAT-Protection support: (only) allow to change PTEs from RO
to RW with a new RDP instruction. Unlike the currently used IPTE
instruction, this does not necessarily guarantee that TLBs of all
CPUs are synchronously flushed; and that remote CPUs can see spurious

When debugging vmlinux with QEMU + GDB, the following GDB error may
occur:
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint -1.
Cannot access memory at address 0xffffffffffff95c0
Command aborted.
(gdb)
The reason is that, when .interp section is present, GDB tries to
locate the file specified in it in memory and put a number of
breakpoints there (see enable_break() function in gdb/solib-svr4.c).
Sometimes GDB finds a bogus location that matches its heuristics,
fails to set a breakpoint and stops. This makes further debugging
impossible.
The .interp section contains misleading information anyway (vmlinux
does not need ld.so), so fix by discarding it.

The setup of the kernel virtual address space is spread
throughout the sources, boot stages and config options
like this:
1. The available physical memory regions are queried
and stored as mem_detect information for later use
in the decompressor.
2. Based on the physical memory availability the virtual
memory layout is established in the decompressor;
3. If CONFIG_KASAN is disabled the kernel paging setup
code populates kernel pgtables and turns DAT mode on.
It uses the information stored at step [1].
4. If CONFIG_KASAN is enabled the kernel early boot
kasan setup populates kernel pgtables and turns DAT
mode on. It uses the information stored at step [1].
The kasan setup creates early_pg_dir directory and
directly overwrites swapper_pg_dir entries to make
shadow memory pages available.
Move the kernel virtual memory setup to the decompressor
and start the kernel with DAT turned on right from the
very first istruction. That completely eliminates the
boot phase when the kernel runs in DAT-off mode, simplies
the overall design and consolidates pgtables setup.
The identity mapping is created in the decompressor, while
kasan shadow mappings are still created by the early boot
kernel code.
Share with decompressor the existing kasan memory allocator.
It decreases the size of a newly requested memory block from
pgalloc_pos and ensures that kernel image is not overwritten.
pgalloc_low and pgalloc_pos pointers are made preserved boot
variables for that.
Use the bootdata infrastructure to setup swapper_pg_dir
and invalid_pg_dir directories used by the kernel later.
The interim early_pg_dir directory established by the
kasan initialization code gets eliminated as result.
As the kernel runs in DAT-on mode only the PSW_KERNEL_BITS
define gets PSW_MASK_DAT bit by default. Additionally, the
setup_lowcore_dat_off() and setup_lowcore_dat_on() routines
get merged, since there is no DAT-off mode stage anymore.
The memory mappings are created with RW+X protection that
allows the early boot code setting up all necessary data
and services for the kernel being booted. Just before the
paging is enabled the memory protection is changed to
RO+X for text, RO+NX for read-only data and RW+NX for
kernel data and the identity mapping.

Nathan Chancellor reports that the s390 vmlinux fails to link with
GNU ld < 2.36 since commit 99cb0d917ffa ("arch: fix broken BuildID
for arm64 and riscv").
It happens for defconfig, or more specifically for CONFIG_EXPOLINE=y.
$ s390x-linux-gnu-ld --version | head -n1
GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2
$ make -s ARCH=s390 CROSS_COMPILE=s390x-linux-gnu- allnoconfig

make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux:34: vmlinux] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:1252: vmlinux] Error 2
arch/s390/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S wants to keep EXIT_TEXT:
.exit.text : {
EXIT_TEXT
}
But, at the same time, EXIT_TEXT is thrown away by DISCARD because
s390 does not define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT.
I still do not understand why the latter wins after 99cb0d917ffa,
but defining RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT seems correct because the comment
line in arch/s390/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S says:
/*
* .exit.text is discarded at runtime, not link time,
* to deal with references from __bug_table
*/
Nathan also found that binutils commit 21401fc7bf67 ("Duplicate output
sections in scripts") cured this issue, so we cannot reproduce it with
binutils 2.36+, but it is better to not rely on it.

Symbols _edata and _end in the linker script are the
only unaligned expicitly on page boundary. Although
_end is aligned implicitly by BSS_SECTION macro that
is still inconsistent and could lead to a bug if a tool
or function would assume that _edata is as aligned as
others.
For example, vmem_map_init() function does not align
symbols _etext, _einittext etc. Should these symbols
be unaligned as well, the size of ranges to update
were short on one page.
Instead of fixing every occurrence of this kind in the
code and external tools just force the alignment on
these two symbols.

Add proper alignment for .nospec_call_table and .nospec_return_table in
vmlinux.
[hca@linux.ibm.com]: The problem with the missing alignment of the nospec
tables exist since a long time, however only since commit e6ed91fd0768
("s390/alternatives: remove padding generation code") and with
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n the kernel may also crash at boot time.
The above named commit reduced the size of struct alt_instr by one byte,
so its new size is 11 bytes. Therefore depending on the number of cpu
alternatives the size of the __alt_instructions array maybe odd, which
again also causes that the addresses of the nospec tables will be odd.
If the address of __nospec_call_start is odd and the kernel is compiled
With CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n the compiler may generate code that loads the
address of __nospec_call_start with a 'larl' instruction.
This will generate incorrect code since the 'larl' instruction only works
with even addresses. In result the members of the nospec tables will be
accessed with an off-by-one offset, which subsequently may lead to
addressing exceptions within __nospec_revert().

The dma section name is confusing, since the code which resides within
that section has nothing to do with direct memory access. Instead the
limitation is that the code has to run in 31 bit addressing mode, and
therefore has to reside below 2GB. So the name was chosen since
ZONE_DMA is the same region.
To reduce confusion rename the section to amode31, which hopefully
describes better what this is about.
Note: this will also change vmcoreinfo strings

s390 allows hotpatching the mask of a conditional jump instruction.
Make use of this feature in order to avoid the expensive stop_machine()
call.
The new trampolines are split in 3 stages:
- A first stage is a 6-byte relative conditional long branch located at
each function's entry point. Its offset always points to the second
stage for the corresponding function, and its mask is either all 0s
(ftrace off) or all 1s (ftrace on). The code for flipping the mask is
borrowed from ftrace_{enable,disable}_ftrace_graph_caller. After
flipping, ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process() syncs with all the
other CPUs by sending SIGPs.
- Second stages for vmlinux are stored in a separate part of the .text
section reserved by the linker script, and in dynamically allocated
memory for modules. This prevents the icache pollution. The total
size of second stages is about 1.5% of that of the kernel image.
Putting second stages in the .bss section is possible and decreases
the size of the non-compressed vmlinux, but splits the kernel 1:1
mapping, which is a bad tradeoff.
Each second stage contains a call to the third stage, a pointer to
the part of the intercepted function right after the first stage, and
a pointer to an interceptor function (e.g. ftrace_caller).
Second stages are 8-byte aligned for the future direct calls
implementation.
- There are only two copies of the third stage: in the .text section
for vmlinux and in dynamically allocated memory for modules. It can be
an expoline, which is relatively large, so inlining it into each
second stage is prohibitively expensive.
As a result of this organization, phoronix-test-suite with ftrace off
does not show any performance degradation.

This change simplifies the task of making the decompressor relocatable.
The decompressor's image contains special DMA sections between _sdma and
_edma. This DMA segment is loaded at boot as part of the decompressor and
then simply handed over to the decompressed kernel. The decompressor itself
never uses it in any way. The primary reason for this is the need to keep
the aforementioned DMA segment below 2GB which is required by architecture,
and because the decompressor is always loaded at a fixed low physical
address, it is guaranteed that the DMA region will not cross the 2GB
memory limit. If the DMA region had been placed in the decompressed kernel,
then KASLR would make this guarantee impossible to fulfill or it would
be restricted to the first 2GB of memory address space.
This commit moves all DMA sections between _sdma and _edma from
the decompressor's image to the decompressed kernel's image. The complete
DMA region is placed in the init section of the decompressed kernel and
immediately relocated below 2GB at start-up before it is needed by other
parts of the decompressed kernel. The relocation of the DMA region happens
even if the decompressed kernel is already located below 2GB in order
to keep the first implementation simple. The relocation should not have
any noticeable impact on boot time because the DMA segment is only a couple
of pages.
After relocating the DMA sections, the kernel has to fix all references
which point into it. In order to automate this, place all variables
pointing into the DMA sections in a special .dma.refs section. All such
variables must be defined using the new __dma_ref macro. Only variables
containing addresses within the DMA sections must be placed in the new
.dma.refs section.
Furthermore, move the initialization of control registers from
the decompressor to the decompressed kernel because some control registers
reference tables that must be placed in the DMA data section to
guarantee that their addresses are below 2G. Because the decompressed
kernel relocates the DMA sections at startup, the content of control
registers CR2, CR5 and CR15 must be updated with new addresses after
the relocation. The decompressed kernel initializes all control registers
early at boot and then updates the content of CR2, CR5 and CR15
as soon as the DMA relocation has occurred. This practically reverts
the commit a80313ff91ab ("s390/kernel: introduce .dma sections").

Create a region 3 page table which contains only invalid entries, and
use that via "s390_invalid_asce" instead of the kernel ASCE whenever
there is either
- no user address space available, e.g. during early startup
- as an intermediate ASCE when address spaces are switched
This makes sure that user space accesses in such situations are
guaranteed to fail.

Perf relies on _etext and _stext symbols being one of 't', 'T', 'v' or
'V'. Put them into .text section to guarantee that.
Also moves padding to page boundary inside .text which has an effect that
.text section is now padded with nops rather than 0's, which apparently
has been the initial intention for specifying 0x0700 fill expression.

Introduce .boot.preserve.data section which is similar to .boot.data and
"shared" between the decompressor code and the decompressed kernel. The
decompressor will store values in it, and copy over to the decompressed
image before starting it. This method allows to avoid using pre-defined
addresses and other hacks to pass values between those boot phases.
Unlike .boot.data section .boot.preserved.data is NOT a part of init data,
and hence will be preserved for the kernel life time.

Currently .vmlinux.info section of uncompressed vmlinux elf image is
included into the data segment and load address specified as 0. That
extends data segment to address 0 and makes "text" and "data" segments
overlap.

Later when vmlinux.bin is produced from vmlinux, .vmlinux.info section
is removed. But elf vmlinux file, even though it is not bootable anymore,
used for debugging and loadable segments overlap should be avoided.
Utilize special ":NONE" phdr specification to avoid adding .vmlinux.info
into loadable data segment. Also set .vmlinux.info section type to INFO,
which allows to get a not-loadable info CONTENTS section.
Since minimal supported version of binutils 2.20 does not have
--dump-section objcopy option, make .vmlinux.info section loadable during
info.bin creation to get actual section contents.

Pull locking and misc x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Lots of changes in this cycle - in part because locking/core attracted
a number of related x86 low level work which was easier to handle in a
single tree:
- Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model updates (Alan Stern, Paul E.
McKenney, Andrea Parri)
- lockdep scalability improvements and micro-optimizations (Waiman
Long)
- rwsem improvements (Waiman Long)
- spinlock micro-optimization (Matthew Wilcox)
- qspinlocks: Provide a liveness guarantee (more fairness) on x86.
(Peter Zijlstra)
- Add support for relative references in jump tables on arm64, x86
and s390 to optimize jump labels (Ard Biesheuvel, Heiko Carstens)
- Be a lot less permissive on weird (kernel address) uaccess faults
on x86: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on kernel addresses (Jann
Horn)
- macrofy x86 asm statements to un-confuse the GCC inliner. (Nadav
Amit)
- ... and a handful of other smaller changes as well"

Introduce .boot.data section which is "shared" between the decompressor
code and the decompressed kernel. The decompressor will store values in
it, and copy over to the decompressed image before starting it. This
method allows to avoid using pre-defined addresses and other hacks to
pass values between those boot phases.
.boot.data section is a part of init data, and will be freed after kernel
initialization is complete.
For uncompressed kernel image, .boot.data section is basically the same
as .init.data

To avoid multi-stage initrd rescue operation and to simplify
assumptions during early memory allocations move initrd at some final
safe destination as early as possible. This would also allow us to
drop .bss usage restrictions for some files.
