Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
of FPU switching - which also generates better code
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
slightly better code
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and to clean up the
logic
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic
- Misc cleanups and fixes

The idle routine selection is done on every CPU bringup operation and
has a guard in place which is effective after the first invocation,
which is a pointless exercise.
Invoke it once on the boot CPU and mark the related functions __init.
The guard check has to stay as xen_set_default_idle() runs early.

amd_e400_idle(), the idle routine for AMD CPUs which are affected by
erratum 400 violates the RCU constraints by invoking tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() after the core code has marked RCU non-idle. The
functions can end up in lockdep or tracing, which rightfully triggers a
RCU warning.
The core code provides now a static branch conditional invocation of the
broadcast functions.
Remove amd_e400_idle(), enforce default_idle() and enable the static branch
on affected CPUs to cure this.

In commit c1d171a00294 ("x86: randomize brk"), arch_randomize_brk() was
defined to use a 32MB range (13 bits of entropy), but was never increased
when moving to 64-bit. The default arch_randomize_brk() uses 32MB for
32-bit tasks, and 1GB (18 bits of entropy) for 64-bit tasks.
Update x86_64 to match the entropy used by arm64 and other 64-bit
architectures.

When clone fails after the shadow stack is allocated, any allocated shadow
stack is cleaned up in exit_thread() in copy_process(). So the logic in
copy_thread() is unneeded, and also will not handle failures that happen
outside of copy_thread().
In addition, since there is a second attempt to unmap the same shadow
stack, there is a race where an newly mapped region could get unmapped.
So remove the logic in copy_thread() and rely on exit_thread() to handle
clone failure.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

When a process is duplicated, but the child shares the address space with
the parent, there is potential for the threads sharing a single stack to
cause conflicts for each other. In the normal non-CET case this is handled
in two ways.
With regular CLONE_VM a new stack is provided by userspace such that the
parent and child have different stacks.
For vfork, the parent is suspended until the child exits. So as long as
the child doesn't return from the vfork()/CLONE_VFORK calling function and
sticks to a limited set of operations, the parent and child can share the
same stack.
For shadow stack, these scenarios present similar sharing problems. For the
CLONE_VM case, the child and the parent must have separate shadow stacks.
Instead of changing clone to take a shadow stack, have the kernel just
allocate one and switch to it.
Use stack_size passed from clone3() syscall for thread shadow stack size. A
compat-mode thread shadow stack size is further reduced to 1/4. This
allows more threads to run in a 32-bit address space. The clone() does not
pass stack_size, which was added to clone3(). In that case, use
RLIMIT_STACK size and cap to 4 GB.
For shadow stack enabled vfork(), the parent and child can share the same
shadow stack, like they can share a normal stack. Since the parent is
suspended until the child terminates, the child will not interfere with
the parent while executing as long as it doesn't return from the vfork()
and overwrite up the shadow stack. The child can safely overwrite down
the shadow stack, as the parent can just overwrite this later. So CET does
not add any additional limitations for vfork().
Free the shadow stack on thread exit by doing it in mm_release(). Skip
this when exiting a vfork() child since the stack is shared in the
parent.
During this operation, the shadow stack pointer of the new thread needs
to be updated to point to the newly allocated shadow stack. Since the
ability to do this is confined to the FPU subsystem, change
fpu_clone() to take the new shadow stack pointer, and update it
internally inside the FPU subsystem. This part was suggested by Thomas
Gleixner.

stop_this_cpu() tests CPUID leaf 0x8000001f::EAX unconditionally. Intel
CPUs return the content of the highest supported leaf when a non-existing
leaf is read, while AMD CPUs return all zeros for unsupported leafs.
So the result of the test on Intel CPUs is lottery.
While harmless it's incorrect and causes the conditional wbinvd() to be
issued where not required.
Check whether the leaf is supported before reading it.

Tony reported intermittent lockups on poweroff. His analysis identified the
wbinvd() in stop_this_cpu() as the culprit. This was added to ensure that
on SME enabled machines a kexec() does not leave any stale data in the
caches when switching from encrypted to non-encrypted mode or vice versa.
That wbinvd() is conditional on the SME feature bit which is read directly
from CPUID. But that readout does not check whether the CPUID leaf is
available or not. If it's not available the CPU will return the value of
the highest supported leaf instead. Depending on the content the "SME" bit
might be set or not.
That's incorrect but harmless. Making the CPUID readout conditional makes
the observed hangs go away, but it does not fix the underlying problem:
CPU0 CPU1
stop_other_cpus()
send_IPIs(REBOOT); stop_this_cpu()
while (num_online_cpus() > 1); set_online(false);
proceed... -> hang
wbinvd()
WBINVD is an expensive operation and if multiple CPUs issue it at the same
time the resulting delays are even larger.
But CPU0 already observed num_online_cpus() going down to 1 and proceeds
which causes the system to hang.
This issue exists independent of WBINVD, but the delays caused by WBINVD
make it more prominent.
Make this more robust by adding a cpumask which is initialized to the
online CPU mask before sending the IPIs and CPUs clear their bit in
stop_this_cpu() after the WBINVD completed. Check for that cpumask to
become empty in stop_other_cpus() instead of watching num_online_cpus().
The cpumask cannot plug all holes either, but it's better than a raw
counter and allows to restrict the NMI fallback IPI to be sent only the
CPUs which have not reported within the timeout window.

of tag bits. It is rounded up to the nearest LAM mode that can
provide it. For now only LAM_U57 is supported, with 6 tag bits.
- ARCH_GET_UNTAG_MASK returns untag mask. It can indicates where tag
bits located in the address.
- ARCH_GET_MAX_TAG_BITS returns the maximum tag bits user can request.
Zero if LAM is not supported.

Before commit 076cbf5d2163 ("x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead()
return"), in Xen, when a previously offlined CPU was brought back
online, it unexpectedly resumed execution where it left off in the
middle of the idle loop.
There were some hacks to make that work, but the behavior was surprising
as do_idle() doesn't expect an offlined CPU to return from the dead (in
arch_cpu_idle_dead()).
Now that Xen has been fixed, and the arch-specific implementations of
arch_cpu_idle_dead() also don't return, give it a __noreturn attribute.
This will cause the compiler to complain if an arch-specific
implementation might return. It also improves code generation for both
caller and callee.
Also fixes the following warning:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_idle+0x25f: unreachable instruction

When a KVM guest has MWAIT, mwait_idle() is used as the default idle
function.
However, the cpuidle-haltpoll driver calls default_idle() from
default_enter_idle() directly and that one uses HLT instead of MWAIT,
which may affect performance adversely, because MWAIT is preferred to
HLT as explained by the changelog of commit aebef63cf7ff ("x86: Remove
vendor checks from prefer_mwait_c1_over_halt").
Make default_enter_idle() call arch_cpu_idle(), which can use MWAIT,
instead of default_idle() to address this issue.

Current arch_cpu_idle() is called with IRQs disabled, but will return
with IRQs enabled.
However, the very first thing the generic code does after calling
arch_cpu_idle() is raw_local_irq_disable(). This means that
architectures that can idle with IRQs disabled end up doing a
pointless 'enable-disable' dance.
Therefore, push this IRQ disabling into the idle function, meaning
that those architectures can avoid the pointless IRQ state flipping.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
- Replace prandom_u32_max() and various open-coded variants of it,
there is now a new family of functions that uses fast rejection
sampling to choose properly uniformly random numbers within an
interval:
get_random_u32_below(ceil) - [0, ceil)
get_random_u32_above(floor) - (floor, U32_MAX]
get_random_u32_inclusive(floor, ceil) - [floor, ceil]
Coccinelle was used to convert all current users of
prandom_u32_max(), as well as many open-coded patterns, resulting in
improvements throughout the tree.
I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused
prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new
use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next,
there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions
that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final
conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the
second week.
This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout.
- More consistent use of get_random_canary().
- Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and
simplification in configuration.
- The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and
wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works
in all relevant contexts.
- The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI
variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is
initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to
prevent accidental leakage.
These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the
EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of
EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full
functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter.
- Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for
an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key,
replacing an sleep loop wart.
- The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c
input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes
going through helpers better suited for other cases.
- The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork
handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't
used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy.
But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed
in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy
gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call
to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter,
without the absent latent entropy variable.
- The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand
when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the
CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to
do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs
more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term
transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming
vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2).
- The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different
CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies
and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter
when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the
main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer
firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache
line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will
cause latencies.

The "force" argument to write_spec_ctrl_current() is currently ambiguous
as it does not guarantee the MSR write. This is due to the optimization
that writes to the MSR happen only when the new value differs from the
cached value.
This is fine in most cases, but breaks for S3 resume when the cached MSR
value gets out of sync with the hardware MSR value due to S3 resetting
it.
When x86_spec_ctrl_current is same as x86_spec_ctrl_base, the MSR write
is skipped. Which results in SPEC_CTRL mitigations not getting restored.
Move the MSR write from write_spec_ctrl_current() to a new function that
unconditionally writes to the MSR. Update the callers accordingly and
rename functions.

Remove vendor checks from prefer_mwait_c1_over_halt function. Restore
the decision tree to support MWAIT C1 as the default idle state based on
CPUID checks as done by Thomas Gleixner in
commit 09fd4b4ef5bc ("x86: use cpuid to check MWAIT support for C1")
The decision tree is removed in
commit 69fb3676df33 ("x86 idle: remove mwait_idle() and "idle=mwait" cmdline param")
Prefer MWAIT when the following conditions are satisfied:
1. CPUID_Fn00000001_ECX [Monitor] should be set
2. CPUID_Fn00000005 should be supported
3. If CPUID_Fn00000005_ECX [EMX] is set then there should be
at least one C1 substate available, indicated by
CPUID_Fn00000005_EDX [MWaitC1SubStates] bits.
Otherwise use HLT for default_idle function.
HPC customers who want to optimize for lower latency are known to
disable Global C-States in the BIOS. In fact, some vendors allow
choosing a BIOS 'performance' profile which explicitly disables
C-States. In this scenario, the cpuidle driver will not be loaded and
the kernel will continue with the default idle state chosen at boot
time. On AMD systems currently the default idle state is HLT which has
a higher exit latency compared to MWAIT.
The reason for the choice of HLT over MWAIT on AMD systems is:
1. Families prior to 10h didn't support MWAIT
2. Families 10h-15h supported MWAIT, but not MWAIT C1. Hence it was
preferable to use HLT as the default state on these systems.
However, AMD Family 17h onwards supports MWAIT as well as MWAIT C1. And
it is preferable to use MWAIT as the default idle state on these
systems, as it has lower exit latencies.
The below table represents the exit latency for HLT and MWAIT on AMD
Zen 3 system. Exit latency is measured by issuing a wakeup (IPI) to
other CPU and measuring how many clock cycles it took to wakeup. Each
iteration measures 10K wakeups by pinning source and destination.
HLT:
25.0000th percentile : 1900 ns

When kernel is booted with idle=nomwait do not use MWAIT as the
default idle state.
If the user boots the kernel with idle=nomwait, it is a clear
direction to not use mwait as the default idle state.
However, the current code does not take this into consideration
while selecting the default idle state on x86.
Fix it by checking for the idle=nomwait boot option in
prefer_mwait_c1_over_halt().
Also update the documentation around idle=nomwait appropriately.

The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things
up and cause the code to make sense.
In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks
I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was
detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of
PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using
flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors
was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace
thread.
I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review
I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code
sitting in linux-next"

Pull x86 splitlock updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add Raptor Lake to the set of CPU models which support splitlock
- Make life miserable for apps using split locks by slowing them down
considerably while the rest of the system remains responsive. The
hope is it will hurt more and people will really fix their misaligned
locks apps. As a result, free a TIF bit.

The functions invoked via do_arch_prctl_common() can only operate on
the current task and none of these function uses the task argument.

Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for
them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER).
This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs
in kernel mode to use this functionality.
The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test
because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly
differently than user space tasks that start with a function.
The functions that created tasks that start with a function
have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of
".stack" and ".stack_size". These functions are fork_idle(),
create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread().

With io_uring we have started supporting tasks that are for most
purposes user space tasks that exclusively run code in kernel mode.
The kernel task that exec's init and tasks that exec user mode
helpers are also user mode tasks that just run kernel code
until they call kernel execve.
Pass kernel_clone_args into copy_thread so these oddball
tasks can be supported more cleanly and easily.

Changes to the "warn" mode of split lock handling mean that TIF_SLD is
never set.
