[ Upstream commit b8000264348979b60dbe479255570a40e1b3a097 ]

The x86 instruction decoder is used not only for decoding kernel
instructions. It is also used by perf uprobes (user space probes) and by
perf tools Intel Processor Trace decoding. Consequently, it needs to
support instructions executed by user space also.

Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions and Future Features manual
number 319433-044 of May 2021, documented VEX versions of instructions
VPDPBUSD, VPDPBUSDS, VPDPWSSD and VPDPWSSDS, but the opcode map has them
listed as EVEX only.

Remove EVEX-only (ev) annotation from instructions VPDPBUSD, VPDPBUSDS,
VPDPWSSD and VPDPWSSDS, which allows them to be decoded with either a VEX
or EVEX prefix.

[ Upstream commit 59162e0c11d7257cde15f907d19fefe26da66692 ]

The x86 instruction decoder is used not only for decoding kernel
instructions. It is also used by perf uprobes (user space probes) and by
perf tools Intel Processor Trace decoding. Consequently, it needs to
support instructions executed by user space also.

Opcode 0x68 PUSH instruction is currently defined as 64-bit operand size
only i.e. (d64). That was based on Intel SDM Opcode Map. However that is
contradicted by the Instruction Set Reference section for PUSH in the
same manual.

Remove 64-bit operand size only annotation from opcode 0x68 PUSH
instruction.

Example:

  $ cat pushw.s
  .global  _start
  .text
  _start:
          pushw   $0x1234
          mov     $0x1,%eax   # system call number (sys_exit)
          int     $0x80
  $ as -o pushw.o pushw.s
  $ ld -s -o pushw pushw.o
  $ objdump -d pushw | tail -4
  0000000000401000 &lt;.text&gt;:
    401000:       66 68 34 12             pushw  $0x1234
    401004:       b8 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%eax
    401009:       cd 80                   int    $0x80
  $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./pushw
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.014 MB perf.data ]

<title>x86/boot: Move mem_encrypt= parsing to the decompressor</title>

commit cd0d9d92c8bb46e77de62efd7df13069ddd61e7d upstream.

The early SME/SEV code parses the command line very early, in order to
decide whether or not memory encryption should be enabled, which needs
to occur even before the initial page tables are created.

This is problematic for a number of reasons:
- this early code runs from the 1:1 mapping provided by the decompressor
  or firmware, which uses a different translation than the one assumed by
  the linker, and so the code needs to be built in a special way;
- parsing external input while the entire kernel image is still mapped
  writable is a bad idea in general, and really does not belong in
  security minded code;
- the current code ignores the built-in command line entirely (although
  this appears to be the case for the entire decompressor)

Given that the decompressor/EFI stub is an intrinsic part of the x86
bootable kernel image, move the command line parsing there and out of
the core kernel. This removes the need to build lib/cmdline.o in a
special way, or to use RIP-relative LEA instructions in inline asm
blocks.

This involves a new xloadflag in the setup header to indicate
that mem_encrypt=on appeared on the kernel command line.

commit 0e110732473e14d6520e49d75d2c88ef7d46fe67 upstream.

The srso_alias_untrain_ret() dummy thunk in the !CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO
case is there only for the altenative in CALL_UNTRAIN_RET to have
a symbol to resolve.

However, testing with kernels which don't have CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO
enabled, leads to the warning in patch_return() to fire:

  missing return thunk: srso_alias_untrain_ret+0x0/0x10-0x0: eb 0e 66 66 2e
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:826 apply_returns (arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:826

Put in a plain "ret" there so that gcc doesn't put a return thunk in
in its place which special and gets checked.

In addition:

  ERROR: modpost: "srso_alias_untrain_ret" [arch/x86/kvm/kvm-amd.ko] undefined!
  make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:145: Module.symvers] Chyba 1
  make[1]: *** [/usr/src/linux-6.8.3/Makefile:1873: modpost] Chyba 2
  make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Chyba 2

since !SRSO builds would use the dummy return thunk as reported by
petr.pisar@atlas.cz, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218679.

commit 4535e1a4174c4111d92c5a9a21e542d232e0fcaa upstream.

The original version of the mitigation would patch in the calls to the
untraining routines directly.  That is, the alternative() in UNTRAIN_RET
will patch in the CALL to srso_alias_untrain_ret() directly.

However, even if commit e7c25c441e9e ("x86/cpu: Cleanup the untrain
mess") meant well in trying to clean up the situation, due to micro-
architectural reasons, the untraining routine srso_alias_untrain_ret()
must be the target of a CALL instruction and not of a JMP instruction as
it is done now.

Reshuffle the alternative macros to accomplish that.

<title>x86/lib: Revert to _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() for {get,put}_user() fixups</title>

During memory error injection test on kernels &gt;= v6.4, the kernel panics
like below. However, this issue couldn't be reproduced on kernels &lt;= v6.3.

  mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 296: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 1: bd80000000100134
  mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:&lt;ffffffff821b9776&gt; {__get_user_nocheck_4+0x6/0x20}
  mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC 411a93533ed ADDR 346a8730040 MISC 86
  mce: [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:a06d0 TIME 1706000767 SOCKET 1 APIC 211 microcode 80001490
  mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii'
  mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel
  Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal local machine check

The MCA code can recover from an in-kernel #MC if the fixup type is
EX_TYPE_UACCESS, explicitly indicating that the kernel is attempting to
access userspace memory. However, if the fixup type is EX_TYPE_DEFAULT
the only thing that is raised for an in-kernel #MC is a panic.

ex_handler_uaccess() would warn if users gave a non-canonical addresses
(with bit 63 clear) to {get, put}_user(), which was unexpected.

Therefore, commit

  b19b74bc99b1 ("x86/mm: Rework address range check in get_user() and put_user()")

replaced _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() with _ASM_EXTABLE() for {get, put}_user()
fixups. However, the new fixup type EX_TYPE_DEFAULT results in a panic.

Commit

  6014bc27561f ("x86-64: make access_ok() independent of LAM")

added the check gp_fault_address_ok() right before the WARN_ONCE() in
ex_handler_uaccess() to not warn about non-canonical user addresses due
to LAM.

With that in place, revert back to _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() for {get,put}_user()
exception fixups in order to be able to handle in-kernel MCEs correctly
again.
