<id>6cc0c16d82f889f0083f3608237189afb55b67be</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement the bulk of interrupt return logic in C. The asm return code
must handle a few cases: restoring full GPRs, and emulating stack
store.

The stack store emulation is significantly simplfied, rather than
creating a new return frame and switching to that before performing
the store, it uses the PACA to keep a scratch register around to
perform the store.

The asm return code is moved into 64e for now. The new logic has made
allowance for 64e, but I don't have a full environment that works well
to test it, and even booting in emulated qemu is not great for stress
testing. 64e shouldn't be too far off working with this, given a bit
more testing and auditing of the logic.

This is slightly faster on a POWER9 (page fault speed increases about
1.1%), probably due to reduced mtmsrd.

mpe: Includes fixes from Nick for _TIF_EMULATE_STACK_STORE
handling (including the fast_interrupt_return path), to remove
trace_hardirqs_on(), and fixes the interrupt-return part of the
MSR_VSX restore bug caught by tm-unavailable selftest.

mpe: Incorporate fix from Nick:

The return-to-kernel path has to replay any soft-pending interrupts if
it is returning to a context that had interrupts soft-enabled. It has
to do this carefully and avoid plain enabling interrupts if this is an
irq context, which can cause multiple nesting of interrupts on the
stack, and other unexpected issues.

The code which avoided this case got the soft-mask state wrong, and
marked interrupts as enabled before going around again to retry. This
seems to be mostly harmless except when PREEMPT=y, this calls
preempt_schedule_irq with irqs apparently enabled and runs into a BUG
in kernel/sched/core.c

<title>powerpc: Rename current_stack_pointer() to current_stack_frame()</title>

current_stack_pointer(), which was called __get_SP(), used to just
return the value in r1.

But that caused problems in some cases, so it was turned into a
function in commit bfe9a2cfe91a ("powerpc: Reimplement __get_SP() as a
function not a define").

Because it's a function in a separate compilation unit to all its
callers, it has the effect of causing a stack frame to be created, and
then returns the address of that frame. This is good in some cases
like those described in the above commit, but in other cases it's
overkill, we just need to know what stack page we're on.

On some other arches current_stack_pointer is just a register global
giving the stack pointer, and we'd like to do that too. So rename our
current_stack_pointer() to current_stack_frame() to make that
possible.

<title>powerpc/hw_breakpoints: Rewrite 8xx breakpoints to allow any address range size.</title>

<content type='text'>
Unlike standard powerpc, Powerpc 8xx doesn't have SPRN_DABR, but
it has a breakpoint support based on a set of comparators which
allow more flexibility.

Commit 4ad8622dc548 ("powerpc/8xx: Implement hw_breakpoint")
implemented breakpoints by emulating the DABR behaviour. It did
this by setting one comparator the match 4 bytes at breakpoint address
and the other comparator to match 4 bytes at breakpoint address + 4.

Rewrite 8xx hw_breakpoint to make breakpoints match all addresses
defined by the breakpoint address and length by making full use of
comparators.

Now, comparator E is set to match any address greater than breakpoint
address minus one. Comparator F is set to match any address lower than
breakpoint address plus breakpoint length. Addresses are aligned
to 32 bits.

When the breakpoint range starts at address 0, the breakpoint is set
to match comparator F only. When the breakpoint range end at address
0xffffffff, the breakpoint is set to match comparator E only.
Otherwise the breakpoint is set to match comparator E and F.

At the same time, use registers bit names instead of hardcoded values.

<title>powerpc/watchpoint: Fix length calculation for unaligned target</title>

<content type='text'>
Watchpoint match range is always doubleword(8 bytes) aligned on
powerpc. If the given range is crossing doubleword boundary, we need
to increase the length such that next doubleword also get
covered. Ex,

          address   len = 6 bytes
                |=========.
   |------------v--|------v--------|
   | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
   |---------------|---------------|
    &lt;---8 bytes---&gt;

In such case, current code configures hw as:
  start_addr = address &amp; ~HW_BREAKPOINT_ALIGN
  len = 8 bytes

And thus read/write in last 4 bytes of the given range is ignored.
Fix this by including next doubleword in the length.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "This is a bit late, partly due to me travelling, and partly due to a
  power outage knocking out some of my test systems *while* I was
  travelling.

   - Initial support for running on a system with an Ultravisor, which
     is software that runs below the hypervisor and protects guests
     against some attacks by the hypervisor.

   - Support for building the kernel to run as a "Secure Virtual
     Machine", ie. as a guest capable of running on a system with an
     Ultravisor.

   - Some changes to our DMA code on bare metal, to allow devices with
     medium sized DMA masks (&gt; 32 &amp;&amp; &lt; 59 bits) to use more than 2GB of
     DMA space.

   - Support for firmware assisted crash dumps on bare metal (powernv).

   - Two series fixing bugs in and refactoring our PCI EEH code.

   - A large series refactoring our exception entry code to use gas
     macros, both to make it more readable and also enable some future
     optimisations.

  As well as many cleanups and other minor features &amp; fixups.

When in userspace and MSR FP=0 the hardware FP state is unrelated to
the current process. This is extended for transactions where if tbegin
is run with FP=0, the hardware checkpoint FP state will also be
unrelated to the current process. Due to this, we need to ensure this
hardware checkpoint is updated with the correct state before we enable
FP for this process.

Unfortunately we get this wrong when returning to a process from a
hardware interrupt. A process that starts a transaction with FP=0 can
take an interrupt. When the kernel returns back to that process, we
change to FP=1 but with hardware checkpoint FP state not updated. If
this transaction is then rolled back, the FP registers now contain the
wrong state.

The process looks like this:
   Userspace:                      Kernel

               Start userspace
                with MSR FP=0 TM=1
                  &lt; -----
   ...
   tbegin
   bne
               Hardware interrupt
                   ---- &gt;
                                    &lt;do_IRQ...&gt;
                                    ....
                                    ret_from_except
                                      restore_math()
				        /* sees FP=0 */
                                        restore_fp()
                                          tm_active_with_fp()
					    /* sees FP=1 (Incorrect) */
                                          load_fp_state()
                                        FP = 0 -&gt; 1
                  &lt; -----
               Return to userspace
                 with MSR TM=1 FP=1
                 with junk in the FP TM checkpoint
   TM rollback
   reads FP junk

When returning from the hardware exception, tm_active_with_fp() is
incorrectly making restore_fp() call load_fp_state() which is setting
FP=1.

The fix is to remove tm_active_with_fp().

tm_active_with_fp() is attempting to handle the case where FP state
has been changed inside a transaction. In this case the checkpointed
and transactional FP state is different and hence we must restore the
FP state (ie. we can't do lazy FP restore inside a transaction that's
used FP). It's safe to remove tm_active_with_fp() as this case is
handled by restore_tm_state(). restore_tm_state() detects if FP has
been using inside a transaction and will set load_fp and call
restore_math() to ensure the FP state (checkpoint and transaction) is
restored.

This is a data integrity problem for the current process as the FP
registers are corrupted. It's also a security problem as the FP
registers from one process may be leaked to another.

Similarly for VMX.

A simple testcase to replicate this will be posted to
tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-poison.c

This fixes CVE-2019-15031.
