arch_wb_cache_pmem() is declared in a global header but defined by
the architecture. On x86, the implementation needs to include the header
to avoid this warning:
arch/x86/lib/usercopy_64.c:39:6: error: no previous prototype for 'arch_wb_cache_pmem' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

Every caller passes in zero, meaning they don't want any partial copy to
zero the remainder of the destination buffer.
Which is just as well, because the implementation of that function
didn't actually even look at that argument, and wasn't even aware it
existed, although some misleading comments did mention it still.
The 'zerorest' thing is a historical artifact of how "copy_from_user()"
worked, in that it would zero the rest of the kernel buffer that it
copied into.
That zeroing still exists, but it's long since been moved to generic
code, and the raw architecture-specific code doesn't do it. See
_copy_from_user() in lib/usercopy.c for this all.
However, while __copy_user_nocache() shares some history and superficial
other similarities with copy_from_user(), it is in many ways also very
different.
In particular, while the code makes it *look* similar to the generic
user copy functions that can copy both to and from user space, and take
faults on both reads and writes as a result, __copy_user_nocache() does
no such thing at all.
__copy_user_nocache() always copies to kernel space, and will never take
a page fault on the destination. What *can* happen, though, is that the
non-temporal stores take a machine check because one of the use cases is
for writing to stable memory, and any memory errors would then take
synchronous faults.
So __copy_user_nocache() does look a lot like copy_from_user(), but has
faulting behavior that is more akin to our old copy_in_user() (which no
longer exists, but copied from user space to user space and could fault
on both source and destination).
And it very much does not have the "zero the end of the destination
buffer", since a problem with the destination buffer is very possibly
the very source of the partial copy.
So this whole thing was just a confusing historical artifact from having
shared some code with a completely different function with completely
different use cases.

This is preparatory work for inlining the 'rep movs' case, but also a
cleanup. The __copy_user_nocache() function was mis-used by the rdma
code to do uncached kernel copies that don't actually want user copies
at all, and as a result doesn't want the stac/clac either.

Commit 21b56c847753 ("iov_iter: get rid of separate bvec and xarray
callbacks") removed the calls to memcpy_page_flushcache().
In addition, memcpy_page_flushcache() uses the deprecated
kmap_atomic().
Remove the unused x86 memcpy_page_flushcache() implementation and
also get rid of one more kmap_atomic() user.

Based on a patch by Mark Hemment <markhemm@googlemail.com> and
incorporating very sane suggestions from Linus.
The point here is to have the default case with FSRM - which is supposed
to be the majority of x86 hw out there - if not now then soon - be
directly inlined into the instruction stream so that no function call
overhead is taking place.
Drop the early clobbers from the @size and @addr operands as those are
not needed anymore since we have single instruction alternatives.
The benchmarks I ran would show very small improvements and a PF
benchmark would even show weird things like slowdowns with higher core
counts.
So for a ~6m running the git test suite, the function gets called under
700K times, all from padzero():
<...>-2536 [006] ..... 261.208801: padzero: to: 0x55b0663ed214, size: 3564, cycles: 21900
<...>-2536 [006] ..... 261.208819: padzero: to: 0x7f061adca078, size: 3976, cycles: 17160
<...>-2537 [008] ..... 261.211027: padzero: to: 0x5572d019e240, size: 3520, cycles: 23850
<...>-2537 [008] ..... 261.211049: padzero: to: 0x7f1288dc9078, size: 3976, cycles: 15900
...
which is around 1%-ish of the total time and which is consistent with
the benchmark numbers.
So Mel gave me the idea to simply measure how fast the function becomes.
I.e.:
start = rdtsc_ordered();
ret = __clear_user(to, n);
end = rdtsc_ordered();
Computing the mean average of all the samples collected during the test
suite run then shows some improvement:
clear_user_original:
Amean: 9219.71 (Sum: 6340154910, samples: 687674)
fsrm:
Amean: 8030.63 (Sum: 5522277720, samples: 687652)
That's on Zen3.
The situation looks a lot more confusing on Intel:

clear_user_original:
Amean: 19679.4 (Sum: 13652560764, samples: 693750)
Amean: 19743.7 (Sum: 13693470604, samples: 693562)
(I ran it twice just to be sure.)

The first "if" condition in __memcpy_flushcache is supposed to align the
"dest" variable to 8 bytes and copy data up to this alignment. However,
this condition may misbehave if "size" is greater than 4GiB.
The statement min_t(unsigned, size, ALIGN(dest, 8) - dest); casts both
arguments to unsigned int and selects the smaller one. However, the
cast truncates high bits in "size" and it results in misbehavior.
For example:
suppose that size == 0x100000001, dest == 0x200000002
min_t(unsigned, size, ALIGN(dest, 8) - dest) == min_t(0x1, 0xe) == 0x1;
...
dest += 0x1;
so we copy just one byte "and" dest remains unaligned.
This patch fixes the bug by replacing unsigned with size_t.

Typically usercopy does whole word copies followed by a number of byte
copies to finish the tail. This means that on exception it needs to

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.
Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().
Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.
One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

x86 CPUs can suffer severe performance drops if a tight loop, such as
the ones in __clear_user(), straddles a 16-byte instruction fetch
window, or worse, a 64-byte cacheline. This issues was discovered in the
SUSE kernel with the following commit,
1153933703d9 ("x86/asm/64: Micro-optimize __clear_user() - Use immediate constants")
which increased the code object size from 10 bytes to 15 bytes and
caused the 8-byte copy loop in __clear_user() to be split across a
64-byte cacheline.
Aligning the start of the loop to 16-bytes makes this fit neatly inside
a single instruction fetch window again and restores the performance of
__clear_user() which is used heavily when reading from /dev/zero.
Here are some numbers from running libmicro's read_z* and pread_z*
microbenchmarks which read from /dev/zero:

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

I use memcpy_flushcache() in my persistent memory driver for metadata
updates, there are many 8-byte and 16-byte updates and it turns out that
the overhead of memcpy_flushcache causes 2% performance degradation
compared to "movnti" instruction explicitly coded using inline assembler.
The tests were done on a Skylake processor with persistent memory emulated
using the "memmap" kernel parameter. dd was used to copy data to the
dm-writecache target.
This patch recognizes memcpy_flushcache calls with constant short length
and turns them into inline assembler - so that I don't have to use inline
assembler in the driver.

Currently, most fixups for attempting to access userspace memory are
handled using _ASM_EXTABLE, which is also used for various other types of
fixups (e.g. safe MSR access, IRET failures, and a bunch of other things).
In order to make it possible to add special safety checks to uaccess fixups
(in particular, checking whether the fault address is actually in
userspace), introduce a new exception table handler ex_handler_uaccess()
and wire it up to all the user access fixups (excluding ones that
already use _ASM_EXTABLE_EX).

In preparation for using memcpy_mcsafe() to handle user copies it needs
to be to handle write-protection faults while writing user pages. Add
MMU-fault handlers alongside the machine-check exception handlers.
Note that the machine check fault exception handling makes assumptions
about source buffer alignment and poison alignment. In the write fault
case, given the destination buffer is arbitrarily aligned, it needs a
separate / additional fault handling approach. The mcsafe_handle_tail()
helper is reused. The @limit argument is set to @len since there is no
safety concern about retriggering an MMU fault, and this simplifies the
assembly.

With all handling of the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API case being moved to
libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly we do not need to provide global
wrappers and fallbacks in the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API=n case. The pmem
driver will simply not link to arch_wb_cache_pmem() in that case. Same
as before, pmem flushing is only defined for x86_64, via
clean_cache_range(), but it is straightforward to add other archs in the
future.
arch_wb_cache_pmem() is an exported function since the pmem module needs
to find it, but it is privately declared in drivers/nvdimm/pmem.h because
there are no consumers outside of the pmem driver.

operations
The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory
destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not
cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer
(non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync()
to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The
fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn
around and fence previous writes with an "sfence".
Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and
memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in
the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines
will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h +
arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache()
and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE
config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy()
otherwise.
This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do
something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to
that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with
the rest of the uaccess code [2].
The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so
that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this
overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.
This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage
in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers;
adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what
headers we are effectively using.
Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance
for the presence of either and replace as needed. Build testing
revealed a couple implicit header usage issues that were fixed.

Commit cae2a173fe94 ("x86: clean up/fix 'copy_in_user()' tail zeroing")
fixed the failure case tail zeroing of one special case of the x86-64
generic user-copy routine, namely when used for the user-to-user case
("copy_in_user()").
But in the process it broke an even more unusual case: using the user
copy routine for kernel-to-kernel copying.
Now, normally kernel-kernel copies are obviously done using memcpy(),
but we have a couple of special cases when we use the user-copy
functions. One is when we pass a kernel buffer to a regular user-buffer
routine, using set_fs(KERNEL_DS). That's a "normal" case, and continued
to work fine, because it never takes any faults (with the possible
exception of a silent and successful vmalloc fault).
But Jan Beulich pointed out another, very unusual, special case: when we
use the user-copy routines not because it's a path that expects a user
pointer, but for a couple of ftrace/kgdb cases that want to do a kernel
copy, but do so using "unsafe" buffers, and use the user-copy routine to
gracefully handle faults. IOW, for probe_kernel_write().
And that broke for the case of a faulting kernel destination, because we
saw the kernel destination and wanted to try to clear the tail of the
buffer. Which doesn't work, since that's what faults.
This only triggers for things like kgdb and ftrace users (eg trying
setting a breakpoint on read-only memory), but it's definitely a bug.
The fix is to not compare against the kernel address start (TASK_SIZE),
but instead use the same limits "access_ok()" uses.

The rule for 'copy_from_user()' is that it zeroes the remaining kernel
buffer even when the copy fails halfway, just to make sure that we don't
leave uninitialized kernel memory around. Because even if we check for
errors, some kernel buffers stay around after thge copy (think page
cache).
However, the x86-64 logic for user copies uses a copy_user_generic()
function for all the cases, that set the "zerorest" flag for any fault
on the source buffer. Which meant that it didn't just try to clear the
kernel buffer after a failure in copy_from_user(), it also tried to
clear the destination user buffer for the "copy_in_user()" case.
Not only is that pointless, it also means that the clearing code has to
worry about the tail clearing taking page faults for the user buffer
case. Which is just stupid, since that case shouldn't happen in the
first place.
Get rid of the whole "zerorest" thing entirely, and instead just check
if the destination is in kernel space or not. And then just use
memset() to clear the tail of the kernel buffer if necessary.

When Supervisor Mode Access Prevention (SMAP) is enabled, access to
userspace from the kernel is controlled by the AC flag. To make the
performance of manipulating that flag acceptable, there are two new
instructions, STAC and CLAC, to set and clear it.
This patch adds those instructions, via alternative(), when the SMAP
feature is enabled. It also adds X86_EFLAGS_AC unconditionally to the
SYSCALL entry mask; there is simply no reason to make that one
conditional.

This merges the 32- and 64-bit versions of the x86 strncpy_from_user()
by just rewriting it in C rather than the ancient inline asm versions
that used lodsb/stosb and had been duplicated for (trivial) differences
between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
While doing that, it also speeds them up by doing the accesses a word at
a time. Finally, the new routines also properly handle the case of
hitting the end of the address space, which we have never done correctly
before (fs/namei.c has a hack around it for that reason).
Despite all these improvements, it actually removes more lines than it
adds, due to the de-duplication. Also, we no longer export (or define)
the legacy __strncpy_from_user() function (that was defined to not do
the user permission checks), since it's not actually used anywhere, and
the user address space checks are built in to the new code.
Other architecture maintainers have been notified that the old hack in
fs/namei.c will be going away in the 3.5 merge window, in case they
copied the x86 approach of being a bit cavalier about the end of the
address space.

The discussion about using "access_ok()" in get_user_pages_fast() (see
commit 7f8189068726492950bf1a2dcfd9b51314560abf: "x86: don't use
'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()" for details and
end result), made us notice that x86-64 was really being very sloppy
about virtual address checking.
So be way more careful and straightforward about masking x86-64 virtual
addresses:
- All the VIRTUAL_MASK* variants now cover half of the address
space, it's not like we can use the full mask on a signed
integer, and the larger mask just invites mistakes when
applying it to either half of the 48-bit address space.
- /proc/kcore's kc_offset_to_vaddr() becomes a lot more
obvious when it transforms a file offset into a
(kernel-half) virtual address.
- Unify/simplify the 32-bit and 64-bit USER_DS definition to
be based on TASK_SIZE_MAX.
This cleanup and more careful/obvious user virtual address checking also
uncovered a buglet in the x86-64 implementation of strnlen_user(): it
would do an "access_ok()" check on the whole potential area, even if the
string itself was much shorter, and thus return an error even for valid
strings. Our sloppy checking had hidden this.
So this fixes 'strnlen_user()' to do this properly, the same way we
already handled user strings in 'strncpy_from_user()'. Namely by just
checking the first byte, and then relying on fault handling for the
rest. That always works, since we impose a guard page that cannot be
mapped at the end of the user space address space (and even if we
didn't, we'd have the address space hole).

The asm constraints for the strncpy_from_user() result were missing an
early clobber, which tells gcc that the last output arguments
are written before all input arguments are read.
Also add more early clobbers in the rest of the file and fix 32-bit
usercopy.c in the same way.

copy_to/from_user and all its variants (except the atomic ones) can take a
page fault and perform non-trivial work like taking mmap_sem and entering
the filesyste/pagecache.
Unfortunately, this often escapes lockdep because a common pattern is to
use it to read in some arguments just set up from userspace, or write data
back to a hot buffer. In those cases, it will be unlikely for page reclaim
to get a window in to cause copy_*_user to fault.
With the new might_lock primitives, add some annotations to x86. I don't
know if I caught all possible faulting points (it's a bit of a maze, and I
didn't really look at 32-bit). But this is a starting point.
Boots and runs OK so far.
