x86/selftests, x86/vm86: Improve entry_from_vm86 selftest

The entry_from_vm86 selftest was very weak.  Improve it: test
more types of kernel entries from vm86 mode and test them more
carefully.

While we're at it, try to improve behavior on non-SEP CPUs.  The
old code was buggy because I misunderstood the intended
semantics of #UD in vm86, so I didn't handle a possible signal.

x86/kconfig/32: Rename CONFIG_VM86 and default it to 'n'

VM86 is entirely broken if ptrace, syscall auditing, or
NOHZ_FULL is in use.  The code is a big undocumented mess, it's
a real PITA to test, and it looks like a big chunk of vm86_32.c
is dead code.  It also plays awful games with the entry asm.

No one should be using it anyway. Use DOSBOX or KVM instead.

Let's accelerate its slow death.  Remove it from EXPERT and
default it to n.  Distros should not enable it.  In the unlikely
event that some user needs it, they can easily re-enable it.

While we're at it, rename it to CONFIG_X86_LEGACY_VM86 so that 'make
oldconfig' users will be prompted again.  I left CONFIG_VM86 as
an alias to avoid a treewide replacement of the names.  We can
clean that up once the current asm and vm86 code churn settles
down.

locking/spinlocks: Force inlining of spinlock ops

In particular, with this config:

x86/asm/entry/64: Save all regs on interrupt entry

To prepare for the big rewrite of the error and interrupt exit
paths, we will need pt_regs completely filled in.

It's already completely filled in when error_exit runs, so rearrange
interrupt handling to match it.  This will slow down interrupt
handling very slightly (eight instructions), but the
simplification it enables will be more than worth it.

8 years agox86/entry: Add new, comprehensible entry and exit handlers written in C
Andy Lutomirski [Fri, 3 Jul 2015 19:44:26 +0000 (12:44 -0700)]
x86/entry: Add new, comprehensible entry and exit handlers written in C

The current x86 entry and exit code, written in a mixture of assembly and
C code, is incomprehensible due to being open-coded in a lot of places
without coherent documentation.

It appears to work primary by luck and duct tape: i.e. obvious runtime
failures were fixed on-demand, without re-thinking the design.

Due to those reasons our confidence level in that code is low, and it is
very difficult to incrementally improve.

Add new code written in C, in preparation for simply deleting the old
entry code.

prepare_exit_to_usermode() is a new function that will handle all
slow path exits to user mode.  It is called with IRQs disabled
and it leaves us in a state in which it is safe to immediately
return to user mode.  IRQs must not be re-enabled at any point
after prepare_exit_to_usermode() returns and user mode is actually
entered. (We can, of course, fail to enter user mode and treat
that failure as a fresh entry to kernel mode.)

All callers of do_notify_resume() will be migrated to call
prepare_exit_to_usermode() instead; prepare_exit_to_usermode() needs
to do everything that do_notify_resume() does today, but it also
takes care of scheduling and context tracking.  Unlike
do_notify_resume(), it does not need to be called in a loop.

syscall_return_slowpath() is exactly what it sounds like: it will
be called on any syscall exit slow path. It will replace
syscall_trace_leave() and it calls prepare_exit_to_usermode() on the
way out.

x86/entry: Add enter_from_user_mode() and use it in syscalls

Changing the x86 context tracking hooks is dangerous because
there are no good checks that we track our context correctly.
Add a helper to check that we're actually in CONTEXT_USER when
we enter from user mode and wire it up for syscall entries.

Subsequent patches will wire this up for all non-NMI entries as
well.  NMIs are their own special beast and cannot currently
switch overall context tracking state.  Instead, they have their
own special RCU hooks.

This is a tiny speedup if !CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING (removes a
branch) and a tiny slowdown if CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACING (adds a
layer of indirection).  Eventually, we should fix up the core
context tracking code to supply a function that does what we
want (and can be much simpler than user_exit), which will enable
us to get rid of the extra call.

x86/asm/tsc: Save an instruction in DECLARE_ARGS users

Before, the code to do RDTSC looked like:

  rdtsc
  shl $0x20, %rdx
  mov %eax, %eax
  or  %rdx, %rax

The "mov %eax, %eax" is required to clear the high 32 bits of RAX.

By declaring low and high as 64-bit variables, the code is
simplified to:

  rdtsc
  shl $0x20,%rdx
  or  %rdx,%rax

Yes, it's a 2-byte instruction that's not on a critical path,
but there are principles to be upheld.

Every user of EAX_EDX_RET has been checked. I tried to check
users of EAX_EDX_ARGS, but there weren't any, so I deleted it to
be safe.

( There's no benefit to making "high" 64 bits, but it was the
  simplest way to proceed. )

There are two logical changes here.  First, this removes a check
for cpu_has_tsc.  That check is unnecessary, as we don't
register the TSC as a clocksource on systems that have no TSC.

Second, it adds a barrier, thus preventing observable
non-monotonicity.

I suspect that the missing barrier was never a problem in
practice because system calls themselves were heavy enough
barriers to prevent user code from observing time warps due to
speculation. (Without the corresponding barrier in the vDSO,
however, non-monotonicity is easy to detect.)

x86/asm/tsc: Remove rdtscl()

It has no more callers, and it was never a very sensible
interface to begin with. Users of the TSC should either read all
64 bits or explicitly throw out the high bits.

x86/asm/tsc, x86/paravirt: Remove read_tsc() and read_tscp() paravirt hooks

We've had ->read_tsc() and ->read_tscp() paravirt hooks since
the very beginning of paravirt, i.e.,

  d3561b7fa0fb ("[PATCH] paravirt: header and stubs for paravirtualisation").

AFAICT, the only paravirt guest implementation that ever
replaced these calls was vmware, and it's gone. Arguably even
vmware shouldn't have hooked RDTSC -- we fully support systems
that don't have a TSC at all, so there's no point for a paravirt
implementation to pretend that we have a TSC but to replace it.

I also doubt that these hooks actually worked. Calls to rdtscl()
and rdtscll(), which respected the hooks, were used seemingly
interchangeably with native_read_tsc(), which did not.

Just remove them. If anyone ever needs them again, they can try
to make a case for why they need them.

8 years agobluetooth: fix list handling

bluetooth: fix list handling

Commit 835a6a2f8603 ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning")
thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing
out the list pointers and removed it.

But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL
pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just
broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on
a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further).

So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling
(which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to
initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized
implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc())

This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong
An.

[ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going
  to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly   - Linus ]
