commit 8536a5ef886005bc443c2da9b842d69fd3d7647f upstream.

The Thumb2 version of the FP exception handling entry code treats the
register holding the CP number (R8) differently, resulting in the iWMMXT
CP number check to be incorrect.

Fix this by unifying the ARM and Thumb2 code paths, and switch the
order of the additions of the TI_USED_CP offset and the shifted CP
index.

[ Upstream commit b3ea5d56f212ad81328c82454829a736197ebccc ]

Currently the stacktrace on clang compiled arm kernel uses the 'lr'
register to find the first frame address from pt_regs. However, that
is wrong after calling another function, because the 'lr' register
is used by 'bl' instruction and never be recovered.

As same as gcc arm kernel, directly use the frame pointer (r11) of
the pt_regs to find the first frame address.

Note that this fixes kretprobe stacktrace issue only with
CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER=y. For the CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM,
we need another fix.

commit fb033c95c94ca1ee3d16e04ebdb85d65fb55fff8 upstream.

The system currently warns if the config conditions for
building return_address in arch/arm/kernel/return_address.c
are not met, leaving just an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(return_address)
of a function defined to be 'static linline'.
This is a result of aeea3592a13b ("ARM: 8158/1: LLVMLinux: use static inline in ARM ftrace.h").

Since we're not going to build anything other than an exported
symbol for something that is already being defined to be an
inline-able return of NULL, just avoid building the code to
remove the following warning:

commit dad7b9896a5dbac5da8275d5a6147c65c81fb5f2 upstream.

When building the kernel wtih gcc-10 or higher using the
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE=y flag, the compiler picks a slightly
different set of registers for the inline assembly in cpu_init() that
subsequently results in a corrupt kernel stack as well as remaining in
FIQ mode. If a banked register is used for the last argument, the wrong
version of that register gets loaded into CPSR_c.  When building in Arm
mode, the arguments are passed as immediate values and the bug cannot
happen.

This got introduced when Daniel reworked the FIQ handling and was
technically always broken, but happened to work with both clang and gcc
before gcc-10 as long as they picked one of the lower registers.
This is probably an indication that still very few people build the
kernel in Thumb2 mode.

Marek pointed out the problem on IRC, Arnd narrowed it down to this
inline assembly and Russell pinpointed the exact bug.

Change the constraints to force the final mode switch to use a non-banked
register for the argument to ensure that the correct constant gets loaded.
Another alternative would be to always use registers for the constant
arguments to avoid the #ifdef that has now become more complex.

[ Upstream commit 4e79f0211b473f8e1eab8211a9fd50cc41a3a061 ]

When running in BE mode on LPAE hardware with a PA-to-VA translation
that exceeds 4 GB, we patch bits 39:32 of the offset into the wrong
byte of the opcode. So fix that, by rotating the offset in r0 to the
right by 8 bits, which will put the 8-bit immediate in bits 31:24.

Note that this will also move bit #22 in its correct place when
applying the rotation to the constant #0x400000.

commit b4d5ec9b39f8b31d98f65bc5577b5d15d93795d7 upstream.

Since clang does not push pc and sp in function prologues, the current
implementation of unwind_frame does not work. By using the previous
frame's lr/fp instead of saved pc/sp we get valid unwinds on clang-built
kernels.

The bounds check on next frame pointer must be changed as well since
there are 8 less bytes between frames.

This fixes /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/stack.

[ Upstream commit eec13b42d41b0f3339dcf0c4da43734427c68620 ]

Unprivileged memory accesses generated by the so-called "translated"
instructions (e.g. LDRT) in kernel mode can cause user watchpoints to fire
unexpectedly. In such cases, the hw_breakpoint logic will invoke the user
overflow handler which will typically raise a SIGTRAP back to the current
task. This is futile when returning back to the kernel because (a) the
signal won't have been delivered and (b) userspace can't handle the thing
anyway.

Avoid invoking the user overflow handler for watchpoints triggered by
kernel uaccess routines, and instead single-step over the faulting
instruction as we would if no overflow handler had been installed.

[ Upstream commit 3866f217aaa81bf7165c7f27362eee5d7919c496 ]

call_undef_hook() in traps.c applies the same instr_mask for both 16-bit
and 32-bit thumb instructions. If instr_mask then is only 16 bits wide
(0xffff as opposed to 0xffffffff), the first half-word of 32-bit thumb
instructions will be masked out. This makes the function match 32-bit
thumb instructions where the second half-word is equal to instr_val,
regardless of the first half-word.

The result in this case is that all undefined 32-bit thumb instructions
with the second half-word equal to 0xde01 (udf #1) work as breakpoints
and will raise a SIGTRAP instead of a SIGILL, instead of just the one
intended 16-bit instruction. An example of such an instruction is
0xeaa0de01, which is unallocated according to Arm ARM and should raise a
SIGILL, but instead raises a SIGTRAP.

This patch fixes the issue by setting all the bits in instr_mask, which
will still match the intended 16-bit thumb instruction (where the
upper half is always 0), but not any 32-bit thumb instructions.

[ Upstream commit 3866f217aaa81bf7165c7f27362eee5d7919c496 ]

call_undef_hook() in traps.c applies the same instr_mask for both 16-bit
and 32-bit thumb instructions. If instr_mask then is only 16 bits wide
(0xffff as opposed to 0xffffffff), the first half-word of 32-bit thumb
instructions will be masked out. This makes the function match 32-bit
thumb instructions where the second half-word is equal to instr_val,
regardless of the first half-word.

The result in this case is that all undefined 32-bit thumb instructions
with the second half-word equal to 0xde01 (udf #1) work as breakpoints
and will raise a SIGTRAP instead of a SIGILL, instead of just the one
intended 16-bit instruction. An example of such an instruction is
0xeaa0de01, which is unallocated according to Arm ARM and should raise a
SIGILL, but instead raises a SIGTRAP.

This patch fixes the issue by setting all the bits in instr_mask, which
will still match the intended 16-bit thumb instruction (where the
upper half is always 0), but not any 32-bit thumb instructions.

commit 45939ce292b4b11159719faaf60aba7d58d5fe33 upstream.

It is possible for a system with an ARMv8 timer to run a 32-bit kernel.
When this happens we will unconditionally have the vDSO code remove the
__vdso_gettimeofday and __vdso_clock_gettime symbols because
cntvct_functional() returns false since it does not match that
compatibility string.
