This is a preparatory patch for moving stub32_execve[at]() to this

that they can reuse code.

Interrupt entry points are handled with the following code,
each 32-byte code block contains seven entry points:
...
[push][jump 22] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 18] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 14] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 10] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 6] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 2] // 4 bytes
[push][jump common_interrupt][padding] // 8 bytes
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump common_interrupt][padding]
[padding_2]
common_interrupt:
And there is a table which holds pointers to every entry point,
IOW: to every push.
In cold cache, two jumps are still costlier than one, even
though we get the benefit of them residing in the same
cacheline.
This change replaces short jumps with near ones to
'common_interrupt', and pads every push+jump pair to 8 bytes. This
way, each interrupt takes only one jump.
This change replaces ".p2align CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT" before
dispatch table with ".align 8" - we do not need anything
stronger than that.
The table of entry addresses (the interrupt[] array) is no
longer necessary, the address of entries can be easily
calculated as (irq_entries_start + i*8).
text data bss dec hex filename
12546 0 0 12546 3102 entry_64.o.before
11626 0 0 11626 2d6a entry_64.o
The size decrease is because 1656 bytes of .init.rodata are
gone. That's initdata, though. The resident size does go up a
bit.
Run-tested (32 and 64 bits).

This change does two things:
Copy-pastes "retint_swapgs:" code into syscall handling code,
the copy is under "syscall_return:" label. The code is unchanged
apart from some label renames.
Removes "opportunistic sysret" code from "retint_swapgs:" code
block, since now it won't be reached by syscall return. This in
fact removes most of the code in question.

Take a look at the first instruction byte before optimizing the NOP -
there might be something else there already, like the ALTERNATIVE_2()
in rdtsc_barrier() which NOPs out on AMD even though we just
patched in an MFENCE.
This happens because the alternatives sees X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC,
AMD CPUs set it, we patch in the MFENCE and right afterwards it sees
X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC which AMD CPUs don't set and we blindly
optimize the NOP.
Checking whether at least the first byte is 0x90 prevents that.

On failure, sys_execve() does not clobber EXTRA_REGS, so we can
just return to userpsace without saving/restoring them.
On success, ELF_PLAT_INIT() in sys_execve() clears all these
registers.
On other executable formats:
- binfmt_flat.c has similar FLAT_PLAT_INIT, but x86 (and everyone
else except sh) doesn't define it.
- binfmt_elf_fdpic.c has ELF_FDPIC_PLAT_INIT, but x86 (and most
others) doesn't define it.
- There are no such hooks in binfmt_aout.c et al. We inherit
EXTRA_REGS from the prior executable.
This inconsistency was not intended.
This change removes SAVE/RESTORE_EXTRA_REGS in stub_execve,
removes register clearing in ELF_PLAT_INIT(),
and instead simply clears them on success in stub_execve.
Run-tested.

The 'pax' argument is unnecesary. Instead, store the RAX value
directly in regs.
This pattern goes all the way back to 2.1.106pre1, when restore_sigcontext()
was changed to return an error code instead of EAX directly:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/diff/arch/i386/kernel/signal.c?id=9a8f8b7ca3f319bd668298d447bdf32730e51174
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.

Quentin caught a corner case with the generation of instruction
padding in the ALTERNATIVE_2 macro: if len(orig_insn) <
len(alt1) < len(alt2), then not enough padding gets added and
that is not good(tm) as we could overwrite the beginning of the
next instruction.
Luckily, at the time of this writing, we don't have
ALTERNATIVE_2() invocations which have that problem and even if
we did, a simple fix would be to prepend the instructions with
enough prefixes so that that corner case doesn't happen.
However, best it would be if we fixed it properly. See below for
a simple, abstracted example of what we're doing.
So what we ended up doing is, we compute the
max(len(alt1), len(alt2)) - len(orig_insn)
and feed that value to the .skip gas directive. The max() cannot
have conditionals due to gas limitations, thus the fancy integer
math.
With this patch, all ALTERNATIVE_2 sites get padded correctly;
generating obscure test cases pass too:
#define alt_max_short(a, b) ((a) ^ (((a) ^ (b)) & -(-((a) < (b)))))
#define gen_skip(orig, alt1, alt2, marker) \
.skip -((alt_max_short(alt1, alt2) - (orig)) > 0) * \
(alt_max_short(alt1, alt2) - (orig)),marker
.pushsection .text, "ax"
.globl main
main:
gen_skip(1, 2, 4, 0x09)
gen_skip(4, 1, 2, 0x10)
...
.popsection
Thanks to Quentin for catching it and double-checking the fix!

Commit:
e2b32e678513 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address")
made module base address randomization unconditional and didn't regard
disabled KKASLR due to CONFIG_HIBERNATION and command line option
"nokaslr". For more info see (now reverted) commit:
f47233c2d34f ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation")
In order to propagate KASLR status to kernel proper, we need a single bit
in boot_params.hdr.loadflags and we've chosen bit 1 thus leaving the
top-down allocated bits for bits supposed to be used by the bootloader.

The perf PMI currently does unnecessary MSR accesses when
LBRs are enabled. We use LBR freezing, or when in callstack
mode force the LBRs to only filter on ring 3.
So there is no need to disable the LBRs explicitely in the
PMI handler.
Also we always unnecessarily rewrite LBR_SELECT in the LBR
handler, even though it can never change.

This patch disables the PMU HT bug when Hyperthreading (HT)
is disabled. We cannot do this test immediately when perf_events
is initialized. We need to wait until the topology information
is setup properly. As such, we register a later initcall, check
the topology and potentially disable the workaround. To do this,
we need to ensure there is no user of the PMU. At this point of
the boot, the only user is the NMI watchdog, thus we disable
it during the switch and re-enable it right after.
Having the workaround disabled when it is not needed provides
some benefits by limiting the overhead is time and space.
The workaround still ensures correct scheduling of the corrupting
memory events (0xd0, 0xd1, 0xd2) when HT is off. Those events
can only be measured on counters 0-3. Something else the current
kernel did not handle correctly.

avoid exclusive mode starvation
This patch limits the number of counters available to each CPU when
the HT bug workaround is enabled.
This is necessary to avoid situation of counter starvation. Such can
arise from configuration where one HT thread, HT0, is using all 4 counters
with corrupting events which require exclusion the the sibling HT, HT1.
In such case, HT1 would not be able to schedule any event until HT0
is done. To mitigate this problem, this patch artificially limits
the number of counters to 2.
That way, we can gurantee that at least 2 counters are not in exclusive
mode and therefore allow the sibling thread to schedule events of the
same type (system vs. per-thread). The 2 counters are not determined
in advance. We simply set the limit to two events per HT.
This helps mitigate starvation in case of events with specific counter
constraints such a PREC_DIST.
Note that this does not elimintate the starvation is all cases. But
it is better than not having it.
(Solution suggested by Peter Zjilstra.)

This patch implements a software workaround for a HW erratum
on Intel SandyBridge, IvyBridge and Haswell processors
with Hyperthreading enabled. The errata are documented for
each processor in their respective specification update
documents:
- SandyBridge: BJ122
- IvyBridge: BV98
- Haswell: HSD29
The bug causes silent counter corruption across hyperthreads only
when measuring certain memory events (0xd0, 0xd1, 0xd2, 0xd3).
Counters measuring those events may leak counts to the sibling
counter. For instance, counter 0, thread 0 measuring event 0xd0,
may leak to counter 0, thread 1, regardless of the event measured
there. The size of the leak is not predictible. It all depends on
the workload and the state of each sibling hyper-thread. The
corrupting events do undercount as a consequence of the leak. The
leak is compensated automatically only when the sibling counter measures
the exact same corrupting event AND the workload is on the two threads
is the same. Given, there is no way to guarantee this, a work-around
is necessary. Furthermore, there is a serious problem if the leaked count
is added to a low-occurrence event. In that case the corruption on
the low occurrence event can be very large, e.g., orders of magnitude.
There is no HW or FW workaround for this problem.
The bug is very easy to reproduce on a loaded system.
Here is an example on a Haswell client, where CPU0, CPU4
are siblings. We load the CPUs with a simple triad app
streaming large floating-point vector. We use 0x81d0
corrupting event (MEM_UOPS_RETIRED:ALL_LOADS) and
0x20cc (ROB_MISC_EVENTS:LBR_INSERTS). Given we are not
using the LBR, the 0x20cc event should be zero.
$ taskset -c 0 triad &
$ taskset -c 4 triad &
$ perf stat -a -C 0 -e r81d0 sleep 100 &
$ perf stat -a -C 4 -r20cc sleep 10
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
139 277 291 r20cc
10,000969126 seconds time elapsed
In this example, 0x81d0 and r20cc ar eusing sinling counters
on CPU0 and CPU4. 0x81d0 leaks into 0x20cc and corrupts it
from 0 to 139 millions occurrences.
This patch provides a software workaround to this problem by modifying the
way events are scheduled onto counters by the kernel. The patch forces
cross-thread mutual exclusion between counters in case a corrupting event
is measured by one of the hyper-threads. If thread 0, counter 0 is measuring
event 0xd0, then nothing can be measured on counter 0, thread 1. If no corrupting
event is measured on any hyper-thread, event scheduling proceeds as before.
The same example run with the workaround enabled, yield the correct answer:
$ taskset -c 0 triad &
$ taskset -c 4 triad &
$ perf stat -a -C 0 -e r81d0 sleep 100 &
$ perf stat -a -C 4 -r20cc sleep 10
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 r20cc
10,000969126 seconds time elapsed
The patch does provide correctness for all non-corrupting events. It does not
"repatriate" the leaked counts back to the leaking counter. This is planned
for a second patch series. This patch series makes this repatriation more
easy by guaranteeing the sibling counter is not measuring any useful event.
The patch introduces dynamic constraints for events. That means that events which
did not have constraints, i.e., could be measured on any counters, may now be
constrained to a subset of the counters depending on what is going on the sibling
thread. The algorithm is similar to a cache coherency protocol. We call it XSU
in reference to Exclusive, Shared, Unused, the 3 possible states of a PMU
counter.
As a consequence of the workaround, users may see an increased amount of event
multiplexing, even in situtations where there are fewer events than counters
measured on a CPU.
Patch has been tested on all three impacted processors. Note that when
HT is off, there is no corruption. However, the workaround is still enabled,
yet not costing too much. Adding a dynamic detection of HT on turned out to
be complex are requiring too much to code to be justified.
This patch addresses the issue when PEBS is not used. A subsequent patch
fixes the problem when PEBS is used.

Add support for Branch Trace Store (BTS) via kernel perf event infrastructure.
The difference with the existing implementation of BTS support is that this
one is a separate PMU that exports events' trace buffers to userspace by means
of AUX area of the perf buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace.
The immediate benefit is that the buffer size can be much bigger, resulting in
fewer interrupts and no kernel side copying is involved and little to no trace
data loss. Also, kernel code can be traced with this driver.
The old way of collecting BTS traces still works.

PT is an extension of Intel Architecture that collects information about
software execuction such as control flow, execution modes and timings and
formats it into highly compressed binary packets. Even being compressed,
these packets are generated at hundreds of megabytes per second per core,
which makes it impractical to decode them on the fly in the kernel.
This driver exports trace data by through AUX space in the perf ring
buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace for faster data retrieval.

For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic
mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e88630 ("perf/x86: Add Intel
LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to
config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT.
However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after
intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after
intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS
events.
This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of
intel_pebs_constraints().
We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function
only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it
returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and
x86_get_event_constraint().
