commit ec6d0dde71d760aa60316f8d1c9a1b0d99213529 upstream.

On execve[at], we are zero'ing out most of the thread register state
including gpr[0], which contains the syscall number. Due to this, we
fail to trigger the syscall exit tracepoint properly. Fix this by
retaining gpr[0] in the thread register state.

Before this patch:
  # tail /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
	       cat-123     [000] .....    61.449351: sys_execve(filename:
  7fffa6b23448, argv: 7fffa6b233e0, envp: 7fffa6b233f8)
	       cat-124     [000] .....    62.428481: sys_execve(filename:
  7fffa6b23448, argv: 7fffa6b233e0, envp: 7fffa6b233f8)

  filename: 1009ac48, argv: 7ffff65d0c98, envp: 7ffff65d0ca8, flags: 0)

<title>powerpc/32: Fix overread/overwrite of thread_struct via ptrace</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 8e1278444446fc97778a5e5c99bca1ce0bbc5ec9 upstream.

The ptrace PEEKUSR/POKEUSR (aka PEEKUSER/POKEUSER) API allows a process
to read/write registers of another process.

To get/set a register, the API takes an index into an imaginary address
space called the "USER area", where the registers of the process are
laid out in some fashion.

The kernel then maps that index to a particular register in its own data
structures and gets/sets the value.

The API only allows a single machine-word to be read/written at a time.
So 4 bytes on 32-bit kernels and 8 bytes on 64-bit kernels.

The way floating point registers (FPRs) are addressed is somewhat
complicated, because double precision float values are 64-bit even on
32-bit CPUs. That means on 32-bit kernels each FPR occupies two
word-sized locations in the USER area. On 64-bit kernels each FPR
occupies one word-sized location in the USER area.

Internally the kernel stores the FPRs in an array of u64s, or if VSX is
enabled, an array of pairs of u64s where one half of each pair stores
the FPR. Which half of the pair stores the FPR depends on the kernel's
endianness.

To handle the different layouts of the FPRs depending on VSX/no-VSX and
big/little endian, the TS_FPR() macro was introduced.

Unfortunately the TS_FPR() macro does not take into account the fact
that the addressing of each FPR differs between 32-bit and 64-bit
kernels. It just takes the index into the "USER area" passed from
userspace and indexes into the fp_state.fpr array.

On 32-bit there are 64 indexes that address FPRs, but only 32 entries in
the fp_state.fpr array, meaning the user can read/write 256 bytes past
the end of the array. Because the fp_state sits in the middle of the
thread_struct there are various fields than can be overwritten,
including some pointers. As such it may be exploitable.

It has also been observed to cause systems to hang or otherwise
misbehave when using gdbserver, and is probably the root cause of this
report which could not be easily reproduced:
  https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/dc38afe9-6b78-f3f5-666b-986939e40fc6@keymile.com/

Rather than trying to make the TS_FPR() macro even more complicated to
fix the bug, or add more macros, instead add a special-case for 32-bit
kernels. This is more obvious and hopefully avoids a similar bug
happening again in future.

Note that because 32-bit kernels never have VSX enabled the code doesn't
need to consider TS_FPRWIDTH/OFFSET at all. Add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to
ensure that 32-bit &amp;&amp; VSX is never enabled.

[ Upstream commit b793a01000122d2bd133ba451a76cc135b5e162c ]

__setup() handlers should return 1 to obsolete_checksetup() in
init/main.c to indicate that the boot option has been handled.

A return of 0 causes the boot option/value to be listed as an Unknown
kernel parameter and added to init's (limited) argument or environment
strings.

Also, error return codes don't mean anything to obsolete_checksetup() --
only non-zero (usually 1) or zero. So return 1 from powersave_off().

commit bba496656a73fc1d1330b49c7f82843836e9feb1 upstream.

Boot fails with GCC latent entropy plugin enabled.

This is due to early boot functions trying to access 'latent_entropy'
global data while the kernel is not relocated at its final
destination yet.

As there is no way to tell GCC to use PTRRELOC() to access it,
disable latent entropy plugin in early_32.o and feature-fixups.o and
code-patching.o

[ Upstream commit a1d2b210ffa52d60acabbf7b6af3ef7e1e69cda0 ]

for_each_node_by_type performs an of_node_get on each iteration, so
a break out of the loop requires an of_node_put.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr):

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@@
local idexpression n;
expression e;
@@

 for_each_node_by_type(n,...) {
   ...
(
   of_node_put(n);
|
   e = n
|
+  of_node_put(n);
?  break;
)
   ...
 }
... when != n
// &lt;/smpl&gt;

<title>powerpc/iommu: Annotate nested lock for lockdep</title>

[ Upstream commit cc7130bf119add37f36238343a593b71ef6ecc1e ]

The IOMMU table is divided into pools for concurrent mappings and each
pool has a separate spinlock. When taking the ownership of an IOMMU group
to pass through a device to a VM, we lock these spinlocks which triggers
a false negative warning in lockdep (below).

This fixes it by annotating the large pool's spinlock as a nest lock
which makes lockdep not complaining when locking nested locks if
the nest lock is locked already.

[ Upstream commit 1ef1dd9c7ed27b080445e1576e8a05957e0e4dfc ]

If identical_pvr_fixup() is not inlined, there are two modpost warnings:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x54e8): Section mismatch in reference
from the function identical_pvr_fixup() to the function
.init.text:of_get_flat_dt_prop()
The function identical_pvr_fixup() references
the function __init of_get_flat_dt_prop().
This is often because identical_pvr_fixup lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of of_get_flat_dt_prop is wrong.

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x551c): Section mismatch in reference
from the function identical_pvr_fixup() to the function
.init.text:identify_cpu()
The function identical_pvr_fixup() references
the function __init identify_cpu().
This is often because identical_pvr_fixup lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of identify_cpu is wrong.

identical_pvr_fixup() calls two functions marked as __init and is only
called by a function marked as __init so it should be marked as __init
as well. At the same time, remove the inline keywork as it is not
necessary to inline this function. The compiler is still free to do so
if it feels it is worthwhile since commit 889b3c1245de ("compiler:
remove CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING entirely").
