<title>x86/fpu: Use _Alignof to avoid undefined behavior in TYPE_ALIGN</title>

commit 55228db2697c09abddcb9487c3d9fa5854a932cd upstream.

WG14 N2350 specifies that it is an undefined behavior to have type
definitions within offsetof", see

  https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2350.htm

This specification is also part of C23.

Therefore, replace the TYPE_ALIGN macro with the _Alignof builtin to
avoid undefined behavior. (_Alignof itself is C11 and the kernel is
built with -gnu11).

ISO C11 _Alignof is subtly different from the GNU C extension
__alignof__. Latter is the preferred alignment and _Alignof the
minimal alignment. For long long on x86 these are 8 and 4
respectively.

The macro TYPE_ALIGN's behavior matches _Alignof rather than
__alignof__.

[ Upstream commit 0a4bb5e5507a585532cc413125b921c8546fc39f ]

Commit

  0c2a3913d6f5 ("x86/fpu: Parse clearcpuid= as early XSAVE argument")

changed clearcpuid parsing from __setup() to cmdline_find_option().
While the __setup() function would have been called for each clearcpuid=
parameter on the command line, cmdline_find_option() will only return
the last one, so the change effectively made it impossible to disable
more than one bit.

Allow a comma-separated list of bit numbers as the argument for
clearcpuid to allow multiple bits to be disabled again. Log the bits
being disabled for informational purposes.

Also fix the check on the return value of cmdline_find_option(). It
returns -1 when the option is not found, so testing as a boolean is
incorrect.

<title>x86/fpu: Make 'no387' and 'nofxsr' command line options useful</title>

<id>9838e3bff0f92f23fcd50fe1ff1d4b3e91b8a448</id>
<content type='text'>
The command line option `no387' is designed to disable the FPU
entirely. This only 'works' with CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION enabled.

But on 64bit this cannot work because user space expects SSE to work which
required basic FPU support. MATH_EMULATION does not help because SSE is not
emulated.

The command line option `nofxsr' should also be limited to 32bit because
FXSR is part of the required flags on 64bit so turning it off is not
possible.

Clearing X86_FEATURE_FPU without emulation enabled will not work anyway and
hang in fpu__init_system_early_generic() before the console is enabled.

Setting additioal dependencies, ensures that the CPU still boots on a
modern CPU. Otherwise, dropping FPU will leave FXSR enabled causing the
kernel to crash early in fpu__init_system_mxcsr().

With XSAVE support it will crash in fpu__init_cpu_xstate(). The problem is
that xsetbv() with XMM set and SSE cleared is not allowed.  That means
XSAVE has to be disabled. The XSAVE support is disabled in
fpu__init_system_xstate_size_legacy() but it is too late. It can be
removed, it has been added in commit

  1f999ab5a1360 ("x86, xsave: Disable xsave in i387 emulation mode")

to use `no387' on a CPU with XSAVE support.

All this happens before console output.

After hat, the next possible crash is in RAID6 detect code because MMX
remained enabled. With a 3DNOW enabled config it will explode in memcpy()
for instance due to kernel_fpu_begin() but this is unconditionally enabled.

This is enough to boot a Debian Wheezy on a 32bit qemu "host" CPU which
supports everything up to XSAVES, AVX2 without 3DNOW. Later, Debian
increased the minimum requirements to i686 which means it does not boot
userland atleast due to CMOV.

After masking the additional features it still keeps SSE4A and 3DNOW*
enabled (if present on the host) but those are unused in the kernel.

Restrict `no387' and `nofxsr' otions to 32bit only. Add dependencies for
FPU, FXSR to additionaly mask CMOV, MMX, XSAVE if FXSR or FPU is cleared.

<title>x86/fpu: Remove fpu-&gt;initialized</title>

<id>2722146eb78451b30e4717a267a3a2b44e4ad317</id>
<content type='text'>
The struct fpu.initialized member is always set to one for user tasks
and zero for kernel tasks. This avoids saving/restoring the FPU
registers for kernel threads.

The -&gt;initialized = 0 case for user tasks has been removed in previous
changes, for instance, by doing an explicit unconditional init at fork()
time for FPU-less systems which was otherwise delayed until the emulated
opcode.

The context switch code (switch_fpu_prepare() + switch_fpu_finish())
can't unconditionally save/restore registers for kernel threads. Not
only would it slow down the switch but also load a zeroed xcomp_bv for
XSAVES.

For kernel_fpu_begin() (+end) the situation is similar: EFI with runtime
services uses this before alternatives_patched is true. Which means that
this function is used too early and it wasn't the case before.

For those two cases, use current-&gt;mm to distinguish between user and
kernel thread. For kernel_fpu_begin() skip save/restore of the FPU
registers.

During the context switch into a kernel thread don't do anything. There
is no reason to save the FPU state of a kernel thread.

The reordering in __switch_to() is important because the current()
pointer needs to be valid before switch_fpu_finish() is invoked so -&gt;mm
is seen of the new task instead the old one.

N.B.: fpu__save() doesn't need to check -&gt;mm because it is called by
user tasks only.

The context switch code (switch_fpu_prepare() + switch_fpu_finish())
can't unconditionally save/restore registers for kernel threads. Not
only would it slow down the switch but also load a zeroed xcomp_bv for
XSAVES.

For kernel_fpu_begin() (+end) the situation is similar: EFI with runtime
services uses this before alternatives_patched is true. Which means that
this function is used too early and it wasn't the case before.

For those two cases, use current-&gt;mm to distinguish between user and
kernel thread. For kernel_fpu_begin() skip save/restore of the FPU
registers.

During the context switch into a kernel thread don't do anything. There
is no reason to save the FPU state of a kernel thread.

The reordering in __switch_to() is important because the current()
pointer needs to be valid before switch_fpu_finish() is invoked so -&gt;mm
is seen of the new task instead the old one.

N.B.: fpu__save() doesn't need to check -&gt;mm because it is called by
user tasks only.

<title>x86/fpu: Parse clearcpuid= as early XSAVE argument</title>

With a followon patch we want to make clearcpuid affect the XSAVE
configuration. But xsave is currently initialized before arguments
are parsed. Move the clearcpuid= parsing into the special
early xsave argument parsing code.

Since clearcpuid= contains a = we need to keep the old __setup
around as a dummy, otherwise it would end up as a environment
variable in init's environment.

<title>x86/fpu: Rename fpu::fpstate_active to fpu::initialized</title>

<id>e4a81bfcaae1ebbdc6efe74e8ea563144d90e9a9</id>
<content type='text'>
The x86 FPU code used to have a complex state machine where both the FPU
registers and the FPU state context could be 'active' (or inactive)
independently of each other - which enabled features like lazy FPU restore.

Much of this complexity is gone in the current code: now we basically can
have FPU-less tasks (kernel threads) that don't use (and save/restore) FPU
state at all, plus full FPU users that save/restore directly with no laziness
whatsoever.

But the fpu::fpstate_active still carries bits of the old complexity - meanwhile
this flag has become a simple flag that shows whether the FPU context saving
area in the thread struct is initialized and used, or not.

Rename it to fpu::initialized to express this simplicity in the name as well.
