commit c50f11c6196f45c92ca48b16a5071615d4ae0572 upstream.

Invalidating the buffer memory in arch_sync_dma_for_device() for
FROM_DEVICE transfers

When using the streaming DMA API to map a buffer prior to inbound
non-coherent DMA (i.e. DMA_FROM_DEVICE), we invalidate any dirty CPU
cachelines so that they will not be written back during the transfer and
corrupt the buffer contents written by the DMA. This, however, poses two
potential problems:

  (1) If the DMA transfer does not write to every byte in the buffer,
      then the unwritten bytes will contain stale data once the transfer
      has completed.

  (2) If the buffer has a virtual alias in userspace, then stale data
      may be visible via this alias during the period between performing
      the cache invalidation and the DMA writes landing in memory.

Address both of these issues by cleaning (aka writing-back) the dirty
lines in arch_sync_dma_for_device(DMA_FROM_DEVICE) instead of discarding
them using invalidation.

commit 3ae11dbcfac906a8c3a480e98660a823130dc16a upstream.

The switch to a keyed guest does not require a classic sske as the other
guest CPUs are not accessing the key before the switch is complete.
By using the NQ SSKE things are faster especially with multiple guests.

commit d51f86cfd8e378d4907958db77da3074f6dce3ba upstream.

The dssall ("Data Stream Stop All") instruction is obsolete altogether
with other Data Cache Instructions since ISA 2.03 (year 2006).

LLVM IAS does not support it but PPC970 seems to be using it.
This switches dssall to .long as there is no much point in fixing LLVM.

commit fc585d4a5cf614727f64d86550b794bcad29d5c3 upstream.

The existing __lshrti3 was really inefficient, and the other two helpers
are also needed to compile some modules.

Add the missing versions, and export all of the symbols like arm64
already does.

This code is based on the assembly generated by libgcc builds.

This fixes a build break triggered by ubsan:

riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: lib/ubsan.o: in function `.L2':
ubsan.c:(.text.unlikely+0x38): undefined reference to `__ashlti3'

commit 30aca1bacb398dec6c1ed5eeca33f355bd7b6203 upstream.

riscv's &lt;vdso/processor.h&gt; uses barrier() so it should include
&lt;asm/barrier.h&gt;

Fixes this build error:

   14 |  barrier();

This happens with a total of 5 networking drivers -- they all use
&lt;linux/prefetch.h&gt;.

rv64 allmodconfig now builds cleanly after this patch.

Commit 36dadef23fcc ("kprobes: Init kprobes in early_initcall") enabled
using kprobes from early_initcall. Unfortunately at this point the
hardware debug infrastructure is not operational. The OS lock may still
be locked, and the hardware watchpoints may have unknown values when
kprobe enables debug monitors to single-step instructions.

Rather than using hardware single-step, append a BRK instruction after
the instruction to be executed out-of-line.

<title>arm64: ftrace: fix branch range checks</title>

[ Upstream commit 3eefdf9d1e406f3da47470b2854347009ffcb6fa ]

The branch range checks in ftrace_make_call() and ftrace_make_nop() are
incorrect, erroneously permitting a forwards branch of 128M and
erroneously rejecting a backwards branch of 128M.

This is because both functions calculate the offset backwards,
calculating the offset *from* the target *to* the branch, rather than
the other way around as the later comparisons expect.

If an out-of-range branch were erroeously permitted, this would later be
rejected by aarch64_insn_gen_branch_imm() as branch_imm_common() checks
the bounds correctly, resulting in warnings and the placement of a BRK
instruction. Note that this can only happen for a forwards branch of
exactly 128M, and so the caller would need to be exactly 128M bytes
below the relevant ftrace trampoline.

If an in-range branch were erroeously rejected, then:

* For modules when CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS=y, this would result in the
  use of a PLT entry, which is benign.

  Note that this is the common case, as this is selected by
  CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE (and therefore RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL),
  which distributions typically seelct. This is also selected by
  CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419.

* For modules when CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS=n, this would result in
  internal ftrace failures.

* For core kernel text, this would result in internal ftrace failues.

  Note that for this to happen, the kernel text would need to be at
  least 128M bytes in size, and typical configurations are smaller tha
  this.

Fix this by calculating the offset *from* the branch *to* the target in
both functions.

[ Upstream commit 3eefdf9d1e406f3da47470b2854347009ffcb6fa ]

The branch range checks in ftrace_make_call() and ftrace_make_nop() are
incorrect, erroneously permitting a forwards branch of 128M and
erroneously rejecting a backwards branch of 128M.

This is because both functions calculate the offset backwards,
calculating the offset *from* the target *to* the branch, rather than
the other way around as the later comparisons expect.

If an out-of-range branch were erroeously permitted, this would later be
rejected by aarch64_insn_gen_branch_imm() as branch_imm_common() checks
the bounds correctly, resulting in warnings and the placement of a BRK
instruction. Note that this can only happen for a forwards branch of
exactly 128M, and so the caller would need to be exactly 128M bytes
below the relevant ftrace trampoline.

If an in-range branch were erroeously rejected, then:

* For modules when CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS=y, this would result in the
  use of a PLT entry, which is benign.

  Note that this is the common case, as this is selected by
  CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE (and therefore RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL),
  which distributions typically seelct. This is also selected by
  CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419.

* For modules when CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS=n, this would result in
  internal ftrace failures.

* For core kernel text, this would result in internal ftrace failues.

  Note that for this to happen, the kernel text would need to be at
  least 128M bytes in size, and typical configurations are smaller tha
  this.

Fix this by calculating the offset *from* the branch *to* the target in
both functions.

Fixes: f8af0b364e24 ("arm64: ftrace: don't validate branch via PLT in ftrace_make_nop()")
Fixes: e71a4e1bebaf ("arm64: ftrace: add support for far branches to dynamic ftrace")

[ Upstream commit a1b29ba2f2c171b9bea73be993bfdf0a62d37d15 ]

The following KASAN warning was reported in our kernel.

  Memory state around the buggy address:

After looking into this issue, I find the buggy address belongs
to the task stack region. It seems KASAN has something wrong.
I look into the code of __get_wchan in x86 architecture and
find the same issue has been resolved by the commit
f7d27c35ddff ("x86/mm, kasan: Silence KASAN warnings in get_wchan()").
The solution could be applied to powerpc architecture too.

As Andrey Ryabinin said, get_wchan() is racy by design, it may
access volatile stack of running task, thus it may access
redzone in a stack frame and cause KASAN to warn about this.

Use READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to silence these warnings.

<title>xtensa: use fallback for random_get_entropy() instead of zero</title>

commit e10e2f58030c5c211d49042a8c2a1b93d40b2ffb upstream.

In the event that random_get_entropy() can't access a cycle counter or
similar, falling back to returning 0 is really not the best we can do.
Instead, at least calling random_get_entropy_fallback() would be
preferable, because that always needs to return _something_, even
falling back to jiffies eventually. It's not as though
random_get_entropy_fallback() is super high precision or guaranteed to
be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all the time is
better than returning zero all the time.

This is accomplished by just including the asm-generic code like on
other architectures, which means we can get rid of the empty stub
function here.
