commit 5da8e4a658109e3b7e1f45ae672b7c06ac3e7158 upstream.

The motivations to go rework memcpy_mcsafe() are that the benefit of
doing slow and careful copies is obviated on newer CPUs, and that the
current opt-in list of CPUs to instrument recovery is broken relative to
those CPUs.  There is no need to keep an opt-in list up to date on an
ongoing basis if pmem/dax operations are instrumented for recovery by
default. With recovery enabled by default the old "mcsafe_key" opt-in to
careful copying can be made a "fragile" opt-out. Where the "fragile"
list takes steps to not consume poison across cachelines.

The discussion with Linus made clear that the current "_mcsafe" suffix
was imprecise to a fault. The operations that are needed by pmem/dax are
to copy from a source address that might throw #MC to a destination that
may write-fault, if it is a user page.

So copy_to_user_mcsafe() becomes copy_mc_to_user() to indicate
the separate precautions taken on source and destination.
copy_mc_to_kernel() is introduced as a non-SMAP version that does not
expect write-faults on the destination, but is still prepared to abort
with an error code upon taking #MC.

The original copy_mc_fragile() implementation had negative performance
implications since it did not use the fast-string instruction sequence
to perform copies. For this reason copy_mc_to_kernel() fell back to
plain memcpy() to preserve performance on platforms that did not indicate
the capability to recover from machine check exceptions. However, that
capability detection was not architectural and now that some platforms
can recover from fast-string consumption of memory errors the memcpy()
fallback now causes these more capable platforms to fail.

Introduce copy_mc_enhanced_fast_string() as the fast default
implementation of copy_mc_to_kernel() and finalize the transition of
copy_mc_fragile() to be a platform quirk to indicate 'copy-carefully'.
With this in place, copy_mc_to_kernel() is fast and recovery-ready by
default regardless of hardware capability.

Thanks to Vivek for identifying that copy_user_generic() is not suitable
as the copy_mc_to_user() backend since the #MC handler explicitly checks
ex_has_fault_handler(). Thanks to the 0day robot for catching a
performance bug in the x86/copy_mc_to_user implementation.

commit ec6347bb43395cb92126788a1a5b25302543f815 upstream.

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.

Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

  &gt; Right.
  &gt;
  &gt; And it won't work that way on other architectures. On x86, we have a

  &gt;
  &gt; In fact, it's probably wrong even on x86 - because it can hide bugs -
  &gt; but writing those things is painful enough that everybody prefers
  &gt; having just one function.

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().

Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.

One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

<title>objtool: Fix noreturn detection for ignored functions</title>

[ Upstream commit db6c6a0df840e3f52c84cc302cc1a08ba11a4416 ]

When a function is annotated with STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD, objtool
doesn't validate its code paths.  It also skips sibling call detection
within the function.

But sibling call detection is actually needed for the case where the
ignored function doesn't have any return instructions.  Otherwise
objtool naively marks the function as implicit static noreturn, which
affects the reachability of its callers, resulting in "unreachable
instruction" warnings.

Fix it by just enabling sibling call detection for ignored functions.
The 'insn-&gt;ignore' check in add_jump_destinations() is no longer needed
after

  e6da9567959e ("objtool: Don't use ignore flag for fake jumps").

Fixes the following warning:

  arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.o: warning: objtool: vmx_handle_exit_irqoff()+0x142: unreachable instruction

which triggers on an allmodconfig with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL unset.

Since many compilers cannot disable KCOV with a function attribute,
help it to NOP out any __sanitizer_cov_*() calls injected in noinstr
code.

This turns:

12:   e8 00 00 00 00          callq  17 &lt;lockdep_hardirqs_on+0x17&gt;
		13: R_X86_64_PLT32      __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc-0x4

This provides infrastructure to rewrite instructions; this is
immediately useful for helping out with KCOV-vs-noinstr, but will
also come in handy for a bunch of variable sized jump-label patches
that are still on ice.

With there being multiple ways to change the ELF data, let's more
concisely track modification.

The UBSAN instrumentation only inserts external CALLs when things go
'BAD', much like WARN(). So treat them similar to WARN()s for noinstr,
that is: allow them, at the risk of taking the machine down, to get
their message out.

Merge the state of the locking kcsan branch before the read/write_once()
and the atomics modifications got merged.

Squash the fallout of the rebase on top of the read/write once and atomic
fallback work into the merge. The history of the original branch is
preserved in tag locking-kcsan-2020-06-02.
