If an error happens in ftrace, ftrace_kill() will prevent disarming
kprobes. Eventually, the ftrace_ops associated with the kprobes will be
freed, yet the kprobes will still be active, and when triggered, they
will use the freed memory, likely resulting in a page fault and panic.
This behavior can be reproduced quite easily, by creating a kprobe and
then triggering a ftrace_kill(). For simplicity, we can simulate an
ftrace error with a kernel module like [1]:
[1]: https://github.com/brenns10/kernel_stuff/tree/master/ftrace_killer
sudo perf probe --add commit_creds
sudo perf trace -e probe:commit_creds
# In another terminal
make
sudo insmod ftrace_killer.ko # calls ftrace_kill(), simulating bug
# Back to perf terminal
# ctrl-c
sudo perf probe --del commit_creds
After a short period, a page fault and panic would occur as the kprobe
continues to execute and uses the freed ftrace_ops. While ftrace_kill()
is supposed to be used only in extreme circumstances, it is invoked in
FTRACE_WARN_ON() and so there are many places where an unexpected bug
could be triggered, yet the system may continue operating, possibly
without the administrator noticing. If ftrace_kill() does not panic the
system, then we should do everything we can to continue operating,
rather than leave a ticking time bomb.

Extend execmem parameters to accommodate more complex overrides of
module_alloc() by architectures.
This includes specification of a fallback range required by arm, arm64
and powerpc, EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA type required by powerpc, support for
allocation of KASAN shadow required by s390 and x86 and support for
late initialization of execmem required by arm64.
The core implementation of execmem_alloc() takes care of suppressing
warnings when the initial allocation fails but there is a fallback range
defined.

module_alloc() is used everywhere as a mean to allocate memory for code.
Beside being semantically wrong, this unnecessarily ties all subsystems
that need to allocate code, such as ftrace, kprobes and BPF to modules and
puts the burden of code allocation to the modules code.
Several architectures override module_alloc() because of various
constraints where the executable memory can be located and this causes
additional obstacles for improvements of code allocation.
Start splitting code allocation from modules by introducing execmem_alloc()
and execmem_free() APIs.
Initially, execmem_alloc() is a wrapper for module_alloc() and
execmem_free() is a replacement of module_memfree() to allow updating all
call sites to use the new APIs.
Since architectures define different restrictions on placement,
permissions, alignment and other parameters for memory that can be used by
different subsystems that allocate executable memory, execmem_alloc() takes
a type argument, that will be used to identify the calling subsystem and to
allow architectures define parameters for ranges suitable for that
subsystem.
No functional changes.

Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option enabled it
uses dynamic symbols, for which the linker does not allow more
than 64K number of entries. This can break features like kpatch.
Hence, whenever possible the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD
option disabled. For that support of unaligned symbols generated by
linker scripts in the compiler is necessary.
However, older compilers might lack such support. In that case the
build process resorts to CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled build.
Compile object files with -fPIC option and then link the kernel
binary with -no-pie linker option.
As result, the dynamic symbols are not generated and not only kpatch
feature succeeds, but also the whole CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled
code could be dropped.

Using __builtin_return_address(n) might return undefined values
when used with values of n outside of the stack. This was noticed
when __builtin_return_address() was called in ftrace on top level
functions like the interrupt handlers.
As this behaviour cannot be fixed, use the s390 stack unwinder and
remove the ftrace compilation flags for unwind_bc.c and stacktrace.c
to prevent the unwinding function polluting function traces.
Another advantage is that this also works with clang.

The commit be42660d0c13 ("s390/crash: use old os_info to create PT_LOAD headers")
introduced use of the old os_info into standalone dump kernel.
Before this change os_info_old_init() expected to be called only from
a regular kdump kernel although the function itself is able to work
in standalone dump kernels as well (because copy_oldmem_kernel() is able
to handle both use cases). Therefore, fix the expectation of os_info_old_init()
and enable it to be called from a standalone dump kernel.

The recently added check to figure out if a fault happened on gmap ASCE
dereferences the gmap pointer in lowcore without checking that it is not
NULL. For all non-KVM processes the pointer is NULL, so that some value
from lowcore will be read. With the current layouts of struct gmap and
struct lowcore the read value (aka ASCE) is zero, so that this doesn't lead
to any observable bug; at least currently.
Fix this by adding the missing NULL pointer check.

Rework deployment of kernel image for both compressed and
uncompressed variants as defined by CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED
kernel configuration variable.
In case CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is disabled avoid uncompressing
the kernel to a temporary buffer and copying it to the target
address. Instead, uncompress it directly to the target destination.
In case CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is enabled avoid moving the
kernel to default 0x100000 location when KASLR is disabled or
failed. Instead, use the uncompressed kernel image directly.
In case KASLR is disabled or failed .amode31 section location in
memory is not randomized and precedes the kernel image. In case
CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is disabled that location overlaps the
area used by the decompression algorithm. That is fine, since that
area is not used after the decompression finished and the size of
.amode31 section is not expected to exceed BOOT_HEAP_SIZE ever.
There is no decompression in case CONFIG_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED is
enabled. Therefore, rename decompress_kernel() to deploy_kernel(),
which better describes both uncompressed and compressed cases.
Introduce AMODE31_SIZE macro to avoid immediate value of 0x3000
(the size of .amode31 section) in the decompressor linker script.
Modify the vmlinux linker script to force the size of .amode31
section to AMODE31_SIZE (the value of (_eamode31 - _samode31)
could otherwise differ as result of compiler options used).
Introduce __START_KERNEL macro that defines the kernel ELF image
entry point and set it to the currrent value of 0x100000.

This is a preparatory rework to allow uncoupling virtual
and physical addresses spaces.
The vmcore ELF program headers describe virtual memory
regions of a crashed kernel. User level tools use that
information for the kernel text and data analysis (e.g
vmcore-dmesg extracts the kernel log).
Currently the kernel image is covered by program headers
describing the identity mapping regions. But in the future
the kernel image will be mapped into separate region outside
of the identity mapping. Create the additional ELF program
header that covers kernel image only, so that vmcore tools
could locate kernel text and data.
Further, the identity mapping in crashed and capture kernels
will have different base address. Due to that __va() macro
can not be used in the capture kernel. Instead, read crashed
kernel identity mapping base address from os_info and use
it for PT_LOAD type program headers creation.

Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Various virtual vs physical address usage fixes
- Add new bitwise types and helper functions and use them in s390
specific drivers and code to make it easier to find virtual vs
physical address usage bugs.
Right now virtual and physical addresses are identical for s390,
except for module, vmalloc, and similar areas. This will be changed,
hopefully with the next merge window, so that e.g. the kernel image
and modules will be located close to each other, allowing for direct
branches and also for some other simplifications.
As a prerequisite this requires to fix all misuses of virtual and
physical addresses. As it turned out people are so used to the
concept that virtual and physical addresses are the same, that new
bugs got added to code which was already fixed. In order to avoid
that even more code gets merged which adds such bugs add and use new
bitwise types, so that sparse can be used to find such usage bugs.
Most likely the new types can go away again after some time

- Fix kprobe branch handling: if an out-of-line single stepped relative

When a program check, interrupt or machine check is triggered, the
PSW address is compared to a certain range of the sie64a() function
to figure out whether SIE was interrupted and a cleanup of SIE is
needed.
This doesn't work with kprobes: If kprobes probes an instruction, it
copies the instruction to the kprobes instruction page and overwrites the
original instruction with an undefind instruction (Opcode 00). When this
instruction is hit later, kprobes single-steps the instruction on the
kprobes_instruction page.
However, if this instruction is a relative branch instruction it will now
point to a different location in memory due to being moved to the kprobes
instruction page. If the new branch target points into sie64a() the kernel
assumes it interrupted SIE when processing the breakpoint and will crash
trying to access the SIE control block.
Instead of comparing the address, introduce a new CIF_SIE flag which
indicates whether SIE was interrupted.

Current average steal timer calculation produces volatile and inflated
values. The only user of this value is KVM so far and it uses that to
decide whether or not to yield the vCPU which is seeing steal time.
KVM compares average steal timer to a threshold and if the threshold
is past then it does not allow CPU polling and yields it to host, else
it keeps the CPU by polling.
Since KVM's steal time threshold is very low by default (%10) it most
likely is not effected much by the bloated average steal timer values
because the operating region is pretty small. However there might be
new users in the future who might rely on this number. Fix average
steal timer calculation by changing the formula from:
avg_steal_timer = avg_steal_timer / 2 + steal_timer;
to the following:
avg_steal_timer = (avg_steal_timer + steal_timer) / 2;
This ensures that avg_steal_timer is actually a naive average of steal
timer values. It now closely follows steal timer values but of course
in a smoother manner.

s390/boot: workaround current 'llvm-objdump -t -j ...' behavior
...
With commit 36bbc5b4ff ("cacheinfo: Allow early detection and population
of cache attributes") the shared cpu list for each cache level higher than
L1 is rebuilt even if the list already has been set up.
This is caused by the removal of the cpumask_empty() check within
cache_shared_cpu_map_setup().
However architectures can enforce that the shared cpu list is not rebuilt
by simply setting cpu_map_populated of the per cpu cache info structure to
true, which is also the fix for this problem.
Before:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cache/index2/shared_cpu_list
0-7
After:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cache/index2/shared_cpu_list
1

Currently only one PAI sampling event can be created and active
at any one time. The PMU device drivers store a pointer to this
event in their data structures even when the event is created
for counting and the PMU device driver reference to this counting
event is never needed.
Change this and assign the pointer to the PMU device driver
only when a sampling event is created.

The end of GOT is calculated dynamically on boot. The size of GOT
is calculated on build from the start and end of GOT. Avoid both
calculations and use the end of GOT directly.

Naresh reported this build error on linux-next:
s390x-linux-gnu-ld: Unexpected GOT/PLT entries detected!
make[3]: *** [/builds/linux/arch/s390/boot/Makefile:87:
arch/s390/boot/vmlinux.syms] Error 1
make[3]: Target 'arch/s390/boot/bzImage' not remade because of errors.
The reason for the build error is an incorrect/incomplete assertion which
checks the size of the .got.plt section. Similar to x86 the size is either
zero or 24 bytes (three entries).
See commit 262b5cae67 ("x86/boot/compressed: Move .got.plt entries out of
the .got section") for more details. The three reserved/additional entries
for s390 are described in chapter 3.2.2 of the s390x ABI [1] (thanks to
Andreas Krebbel for pointing this out!).

=====
$ curl -LSso .config https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/plain/community/linux-edge/config-edge.armv7
$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- olddefconfig all
..
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: arch/arm/kernel/machine_kexec.o: in function `arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo':
machine_kexec.c:(.text+0x488): undefined reference to `vmcoreinfo_append_str'
====
On architecutres, like arm, s390, ppc, sh, function
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is located in machine_kexec.c and it can
only be compiled in when CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y.
That's not right because arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is used to export
arch specific vmcoreinfo. CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO is supposed to control its
compiling in. However, CONFIG_VMVCORE_INFO could be independent of
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, e.g CONFIG_PROC_KCORE=y will select CONFIG_VMVCORE_INFO.
Or CONFIG_KEXEC/CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is set while CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is
not set, it will report linking error.
So, on arm, s390, ppc and sh, move arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo out to
a new file vmcore_info.c. Let CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO decide if compiling in
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo().
