The mitigation-patching.sh script in the powerpc selftests toggles
all mitigations on and off simultaneously, revealing that rfi_flush
and stf_barrier cannot safely operate at the same time due to races
in updating the static key.

On some systems, the static key code throws a warning and the kernel
remains functional.  On others, the kernel will hang or crash.

Fix this by slapping on a mutex.

<title>powerpc/lib/sstep: Don't use __{get/put}_user() on kernel addresses</title>

<id>e28d0b675056d072f1f11fa644d0efbb016bb7ce</id>
<content type='text'>
In the old days, when we didn't have kernel userspace access
protection and had set_fs(), it was wise to use __get_user()
and friends to read kernel memory.

Nowadays, get_user() and put_user() are granting userspace access and
are exclusively for userspace access.

Convert single step emulation functions to user_access_begin() and
friends and use unsafe_get_user() and unsafe_put_user().

When addressing kernel addresses, there is no need to open userspace
access. And for book3s/32 it is particularly important to no try and
open userspace access on kernel address, because that would break the
content of kernel space segment registers. No guard has been put
against that risk in order to avoid degrading performance.

copy_from_kernel_nofault() and copy_to_kernel_nofault() should
be used but they are out-of-line functions which would degrade
performance. Those two functions are making use of
__get_kernel_nofault() and __put_kernel_nofault() macros.
Those two macros are just wrappers behind __get_user_size_goto() and
__put_user_size_goto().

unsafe_get_user() and unsafe_put_user() are also wrappers of
__get_user_size_goto() and __put_user_size_goto(). Use them to
access kernel space. That allows refactoring userspace and
kernelspace access.

Further isolate kernel from userspace, prevent accidental inclusion of
undesireable headers, mainly float.h and stdatomic.h.

nds32 keeps -isystem globally due to intrinsics used in entrenched header.

-isystem is selectively reenabled for some files, again, for intrinsics.

Further isolate kernel from userspace, prevent accidental inclusion of
undesireable headers, mainly float.h and stdatomic.h.

nds32 keeps -isystem globally due to intrinsics used in entrenched header.

-isystem is selectively reenabled for some files, again, for intrinsics.

Commit 9b69d48c7516 ("powerpc/64e: remove implicit soft-masking and
interrupt exit restart logic") limited the implicit soft masking and
restart logic to 64-bit Book3S only. However we are still building
restart_table.c for all 64-bit, ie. Book3E also.

There's no need to build it for 64e, and it also causes missing
prototype warnings for 64e builds, because the prototype is already
behind an #ifdef PPC_BOOK3S_64.

Commit 9d1988ca87dd ("powerpc/64: treat low kernel text as irqs
soft-masked") ends up catching too much code, including ret_from_fork,
and parts of interrupt and syscall return that do not expect to be
interrupts to be soft-masked. If an interrupt gets marked pending,
and then the code proceeds out of the implicit soft-masked region it
will fail to deal with the pending interrupt.

Fix this by adding a new table of addresses which explicitly marks
the regions of code that are soft masked. This table is only checked
for interrupts that below __end_soft_masked, so most kernel interrupts
will not have the overhead of the table search.

<title>powerpc/64: use interrupt restart table to speed up return from interrupt</title>

Use the restart table facility to return from interrupt or system calls
without disabling MSR[EE] or MSR[RI].

Interrupt return asm is put into the low soft-masked region, to prevent
interrupts being processed here, although they are still taken as masked
interrupts which causes SRRs to be clobbered, and a pending soft-masked
interrupt to require replaying.

The return code uses restart table regions to redirct to a fixup handler
rather than continue with the exit, if such an interrupt happens. In
this case the interrupt return is redirected to a fixup handler which
reloads r1 for the interrupt stack and reloads registers and sets state
up to replay the soft-masked interrupt and try the exit again.

Some types of security exit fallback flushes and barriers are currently
unable to cope with reentrant interrupts, e.g., because they store some
state in the scratch SPR which would be clobbered even by masked
interrupts. For now the interrupts-enabled exits are disabled when these
flushes are used.

The exception table fixup adjusts a failed page fault's interrupt return
location if it was taken at an address specified in the exception table,
to a corresponding fixup handler address.

Introduce a variation of that idea which adds a fixup table for NMIs and
soft-masked asynchronous interrupts. This will be used to protect
certain critical sections that are sensitive to being clobbered by
interrupts coming in (due to using the same SPRs and/or irq soft-mask
state).

The exception table fixup adjusts a failed page fault's interrupt return
location if it was taken at an address specified in the exception table,
to a corresponding fixup handler address.

Introduce a variation of that idea which adds a fixup table for NMIs and
soft-masked asynchronous interrupts. This will be used to protect
certain critical sections that are sensitive to being clobbered by
interrupts coming in (due to using the same SPRs and/or irq soft-mask
state).
