[ Upstream commit af6c0bd59f4f3ad5daad2f7b777954b1954551d5 ]

Currently only the first attempt to single-step has any effect. After
that all further stepping remains "stuck" at the same program counter
value.

Refer to the ARM Architecture Reference Manual (ARM DDI 0487E.a) D2.12,
PSTATE.SS=1 should be set at each step before transferring the PE to the
'Active-not-pending' state. The problem here is PSTATE.SS=1 is not set
since the second single-step.

After the first single-step, the PE transferes to the 'Inactive' state,
with PSTATE.SS=0 and MDSCR.SS=1, thus PSTATE.SS won't be set to 1 due to
kernel_active_single_step()=true. Then the PE transferes to the
'Active-pending' state when ERET and returns to the debugger by step
exception.

<title>arm64: Stash shadow stack pointer in the task struct on interrupt</title>

commit 59b37fe52f49955791a460752c37145f1afdcad1 upstream.

Instead of reloading the shadow call stack pointer from the ordinary
stack, which may be vulnerable to the kind of gadget based attacks
shadow call stacks were designed to prevent, let's store a task's shadow
call stack pointer in the task struct when switching to the shadow IRQ
stack.

Given that currently, the task_struct::scs_sp field is only used to
preserve the shadow call stack pointer while a task is scheduled out or
running in user space, reusing this field to preserve and restore it
while running off the IRQ stack must be safe, as those occurrences are
guaranteed to never overlap. (The stack switching logic only switches
stacks when running from the task stack, and so the value being saved
here always corresponds to the task mode shadow stack)

While at it, fold a mov/add/mov sequence into a single add.

<title>arm64: Always load shadow stack pointer directly from the task struct</title>

commit 2198d07c509f1db4a1185d1f65aaada794c6ea59 upstream.

All occurrences of the scs_load macro load the value of the shadow call
stack pointer from the task which is current at that point. So instead
of taking a task struct register argument in the scs_load macro to
specify the task struct to load from, let's always reference the current
task directly. This should make it much harder to exploit any
instruction sequences reloading the shadow call stack pointer register
from memory.

[ Upstream commit 32d85999680601d01b2a36713c9ffd7397c8688b ]

Dan reports that smatch complains about a potential uninitialized
variable being used in the compat alignment fixup code.

The logic is not wrong per se, but we do end up using an uninitialized
variable if reading the instruction that triggered the alignment fault
from user space faults, even if the fault ensures that the uninitialized
value doesn't propagate any further.

Given that we just give up and return 1 if any fault occurs when reading
the instruction, let's get rid of the 'success handling' pattern that
captures the fault in a variable and aborts later, and instead, just
return 1 immediately if any of the get_user() calls result in an
exception.

commit 3c66bb1918c262dd52fb4221a8d372619c5da70a upstream.

The PE/COFF header has a NX compat flag which informs the firmware that
the application does not rely on memory regions being mapped with both
executable and writable permissions at the same time.

This is typically used by the firmware to decide whether it can set the
NX attribute on all allocations it returns, but going forward, it may be
used to enforce a policy that only permits applications with the NX flag
set to be loaded to begin wiht in some configurations, e.g., when Secure
Boot is in effect.

Even though the arm64 version of the EFI stub may relocate the kernel
before executing it, it always did so after disabling the MMU, and so we
were always in line with what the NX compat flag conveys, we just never
bothered to set it.

So let's set the flag now.

       The context switch code preserves/restores neither, and so EFI

       disabling migration.]

commit 1b561d3949f8478c5403c9752b5533211a757226 upstream.

Allocated 'ffh_ctxt' memory leak is possible if the SMCCC version
and conduit checks fail and -EOPNOTSUPP is returned without freeing the
allocated memory.

Fix the same by moving the allocation after the SMCCC version and
conduit checks.

[ Upstream commit 50daf5b7c4ec4efcaf49a4128930f872bec7dbc0 ]

Since it was added our hwcap for DIT has specified that DIT is a signed
field but this appears to be incorrect, the two values for the enumeration
are:

	0b0000	NI
	0b0001	IMP

which look like a normal unsigned enumeration and the in-kernel DIT usage
added by 01ab991fc0ee ("arm64: Enable data independent timing (DIT) in the
kernel") detects the feature with an unsigned enum. Fix the hwcap to specify
the field as unsigned.

Pull arm64 regression fix from Will Deacon:
 "Apologies for the _extremely_ late pull request here, but we had a
  'perf' (i.e. CPU PMU) regression on the Apple M1 reported on Wednesday
  [1] which was introduced by bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context
  handling") during the merge window.

  Mark and I looked into this and noticed an additional problem caused
  by the same patch, where the 'CHAIN' event (used to combine two
  adjacent 32-bit counters into a single 64-bit counter) was not being
  filtered correctly. Mark posted a series on Thursday [2] which
  addresses both of these regressions and I queued it the same day.

  The changes are small, self-contained and have been confirmed to fix
  the original regression.

  Summary:

   - Fix 'perf' regression for non-standard CPU PMU hardware (i.e. Apple
     M1)"

Currently it's possible for a user to open CHAIN events arbitrarily,
which we previously tried to rule out in commit:

  ca2b497253ad01c8 ("arm64: perf: Reject stand-alone CHAIN events for PMUv3")

Which allowed the events to be opened, but prevented them from being
scheduled by by using an arm_pmu::filter_match hook to reject the
relevant events.

The CHAIN event filtering in the arm_pmu::filter_match hook was silently
removed in commit:

  bd27568117664b8b ("perf: Rewrite core context handling")

As a result, it's now possible for users to open CHAIN events, and for
these to be installed arbitrarily.

Fix this by rejecting CHAIN events at creation time. This avoids the
creation of events which will never count, and doesn't require using the
dynamic filtering.

Attempting to open a CHAIN event (0x1e) will now be rejected:

| # ./perf stat -e armv8_pmuv3/config=0x1e/ ls
| perf
|
|  Performance counter stats for 'ls':
|
|    &lt;not supported&gt;      armv8_pmuv3/config=0x1e/

|
|        0.000000000 seconds user
|        0.002294000 seconds sys

Other events (e.g. CPU_CYCLES / 0x11) will open as usual:

| # ./perf stat -e armv8_pmuv3/config=0x11/ ls
| perf
|
|  Performance counter stats for 'ls':
