<title>ARM: 9358/2: Implement PAN for LPAE by TTBR0 page table walks disablement</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7af5b901e84743c608aae90cb0e429702812c324</id>
<content type='text'>
With LPAE enabled, privileged no-access cannot be enforced using CPU
domains as such feature is not available. This patch implements PAN
by disabling TTBR0 page table walks while in kernel mode.

The ARM architecture allows page table walks to be split between TTBR0
and TTBR1. With LPAE enabled, the split is defined by a combination of
TTBCR T0SZ and T1SZ bits. Currently, an LPAE-enabled kernel uses TTBR0
for user addresses and TTBR1 for kernel addresses with the VMSPLIT_2G
and VMSPLIT_3G configurations. The main advantage for the 3:1 split is
that TTBR1 is reduced to 2 levels, so potentially faster TLB refill
(though usually the first level entries are already cached in the TLB).

The PAN support on LPAE-enabled kernels uses TTBR0 when running in user
space or in kernel space during user access routines (TTBCR T0SZ and
T1SZ are both 0). When running user accesses are disabled in kernel
mode, TTBR0 page table walks are disabled by setting TTBCR.EPD0. TTBR1
is used for kernel accesses (including loadable modules; anything
covered by swapper_pg_dir) by reducing the TTBCR.T0SZ to the minimum
(2^(32-7) = 32MB). To avoid user accesses potentially hitting stale TLB
entries, the ASID is switched to 0 (reserved) by setting TTBCR.A1 and
using the ASID value in TTBR1. The difference from a non-PAN kernel is
that with the 3:1 memory split, TTBR1 always uses 3 levels of page
tables.

As part of the change we are using preprocessor elif definied() clauses
so balance these clauses by converting relevant precedingt ifdef
clauses to if defined() clauses.

The isa_mode() macro extracts two fields, and recombines them into a
single value.

Make this more obvious by using the FIELD_GET() helper, and shifting the
result into its final resting place.

<content type='text'>
When building with 'make W=1', the compiler warns about any function
definition that does not come with a prototype in a header, to ensure
it matches what the caller expects.

This includes functions that are only ever caller from assembly
code and don't technically need a declaration:

Add the prototypes anyway, to allow enabling this warning by default in
the future.

<title>ARM: 9214/1: alignment: advance IT state after emulating Thumb instruction</title>

<content type='text'>
After emulating a misaligned load or store issued in Thumb mode, we have
to advance the IT state by hand, or it will get out of sync with the
actual instruction stream, which means we'll end up applying the wrong
condition code to subsequent instructions. This might corrupt the
program state rather catastrophically.

So borrow the it_advance() helper from the probing code, and use it on
CPSR if the emulated instruction is Thumb.

<content type='text'>
There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so just remove it
along with all associated code that operates on
thread_info-&gt;addr_limit.

There are still further optimizations that can be done:

- In get_user(), the address check could be moved entirely
  into the out of line code, rather than passing a constant
  as an argument,

- I assume the DACR handling can be simplified as we now
  only change it during user access when CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN
  is set, but not during set_fs().

<title>linux/compiler.h: Split into compiler.h and compiler_types.h</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=d15155824c5014803d91b829736d249c500bdda6'/>
<id>urn:sha1:d15155824c5014803d91b829736d249c500bdda6</id>
<content type='text'>
linux/compiler.h is included indirectly by linux/types.h via
uapi/linux/types.h -&gt; uapi/linux/posix_types.h -&gt; linux/stddef.h
-&gt; uapi/linux/stddef.h and is needed to provide a proper definition of
offsetof.

Unfortunately, compiler.h requires a definition of
smp_read_barrier_depends() for defining lockless_dereference() and soon
for defining READ_ONCE(), which means that all
users of READ_ONCE() will need to include asm/barrier.h to avoid splats
such as:

   In file included from include/uapi/linux/stddef.h:1:0,
                    from include/linux/stddef.h:4,
                    from arch/h8300/kernel/asm-offsets.c:11:
   include/linux/list.h: In function 'list_empty':
&gt;&gt; include/linux/compiler.h:343:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_read_barrier_depends' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
     smp_read_barrier_depends(); /* Enforce dependency ordering from x */ \
     ^

A better alternative is to include asm/barrier.h in linux/compiler.h,
but this requires a type definition for "bool" on some architectures
(e.g. x86), which is defined later by linux/types.h. Type "bool" is also
used directly in linux/compiler.h, so the whole thing is pretty fragile.

This patch splits compiler.h in two: compiler_types.h contains type
annotations, definitions and the compiler-specific parts, whereas
compiler.h #includes compiler-types.h and additionally defines macros
such as {READ,WRITE.ACCESS}_ONCE().

uapi/linux/stddef.h and linux/linkage.h are then moved over to include
linux/compiler_types.h, which fixes the build for h8 and blackfin.

When we enter an exception, the current address limit should not apply
to the exception context: if the exception context wishes to access
kernel space via the user accessors (eg, perf code), it must explicitly
request such access.
