alpha: fix FEN fault handling

2023-01-11T20:34:43+00:00

Type 3 instruction fault (FPU insn with FPU disabled) is handled
by quietly enabling FPU and returning.  Which is fine, except that
we need to do that both for fault in userland and in the kernel;
the latter *can* legitimately happen - all it takes is this:

.global _start
_start:
        call_pal 0xae
	lda $0, 0
	ldq $0, 0($0)

- call_pal CLRFEN to clear "FPU enabled" flag and arrange for
a signal delivery (SIGSEGV in this case).

Fixed by moving the handling of type 3 into the common part of
do_entIF(), before we check for kernel vs. user mode.

Incidentally, the check for kernel mode is unidiomatic; the normal
way to do that is !user_mode(regs).  The difference is that
the open-coded variant treats any of bits 63..3 of regs->ps being
set as "it's user mode" while the normal approach is to check just
the bit 3.  PS is a 4-bit register and regs->ps always will have
bits 63..4 clear, so the open-coded variant here is actually equivalent
to !user_mode(regs).  Harder to follow, though...

exit: Add and use make_task_dead.

2021-12-13T18:04:45+00:00

There are two big uses of do_exit.  The first is it's design use to be
the guts of the exit(2) system call.  The second use is to terminate
a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer
in kernel code.

Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as
do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle
catastrophic failure.  In time this can probably be reduced to just a
light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so
that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new
concept.

Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic
task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code
is doing.

As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit
rewind_stack_and_make_dead.

Merge branch 'siginfo-si_trapno-for-v5.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

2021-09-01T21:42:36+00:00

Pull siginfo si_trapno updates from Eric Biederman:
 "The full set of si_trapno changes was not appropriate as a fix for the
  newly added SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF, and so I postponed the rest of the
  related cleanups.

  This is the rest of the cleanups for si_trapno that reduces it from
  being a really weird arch special case that is expect to be always
  present (but isn't) on the architectures that support it to being yet
  another field in the _sigfault union of struct siginfo.

  The changes have been reviewed and marinated in linux-next. With the
  removal of this awkward special case new code (like SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF)
  that works across architectures should be easier to write and
  maintain"

signal/alpha: si_trapno is only used with SIGFPE and SIGTRAP TRAP_UNK

2021-07-23T18:10:26+00:00

While reviewing the signal handlers on alpha it became clear that
si_trapno is only set to a non-zero value when sending SIGFPE and when
sending SITGRAP with si_code TRAP_UNK.

Add send_sig_fault_trapno and send SIGTRAP TRAP_UNK, and SIGFPE with it.

Remove the define of __ARCH_SI_TRAPNO and remove the always zero
si_trapno parameter from send_sig_fault and force_sig_fault.

kernel: rename show_stack_loglvl() => show_stack()

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

Now the last users of show_stack() got converted to use an explicit log
level, show_stack_loglvl() can drop it's redundant suffix and become once
again well known show_stack().

alpha: add show_stack_loglvl()

2020-06-09T16:39:10+00:00

Currently, the log-level of show_stack() depends on a platform
realization.  It creates situations where the headers are printed with
lower log level or higher than the stacktrace (depending on a platform or
user).

Furthermore, it forces the logic decision from user to an architecture
side.  In result, some users as sysrq/kdb/etc are doing tricks with
temporary rising console_loglevel while printing their messages.  And in
result it not only may print unwanted messages from other CPUs, but also
omit printing at all in the unlucky case where the printk() was deferred.

Introducing log-level parameter and KERN_UNSUPPRESSED [1] seems an easier
approach than introducing more printk buffers.  Also, it will consolidate
printings with headers.

Introduce show_stack_loglvl(), that eventually will substitute
show_stack().
