ARM: 8844/1: use unified assembler in assembly files

2019-02-26T11:26:07+00:00

Use unified assembler syntax (UAL) in assembly files. Divided
syntax is considered deprecated. This will also allow to build
the kernel using LLVM's integrated assembler.

ARM: 8802/1: Call syscall_trace_exit even when system call skipped

2018-10-10T12:53:12+00:00

On at least x86 and ARM64, and as documented in the ptrace man page
a skipped system call will still cause a syscall exit ptrace stop.

Previous to this commit 32-bit ARM did not, resulting in strace
being confused when seccomp skips system calls.

This change also impacts programs that use ptrace to skip system calls.

ARM: 8781/1: Fix Thumb-2 syscall return for binutils 2.29+

2018-07-30T10:45:19+00:00

When building the kernel as Thumb-2 with binutils 2.29 or newer, if the
assembler has seen the .type directive (via ENDPROC()) for a symbol, it
automatically handles the setting of the lowest bit when the symbol is
used with ADR.  The badr macro on the other hand handles this lowest bit
manually.  This leads to a jump to a wrong address in the wrong state
in the syscall return path:

To fix this, add a new symbol name which doesn't have ENDPROC used on it
and use that with badr.  We can't remove the badr usage since that would
would cause breakage with older binutils.

Pull restartable sequence support from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The restartable sequences syscall (finally):

  After a lot of back and forth discussion and massive delays caused by
  the speculative distraction of maintainers, the core set of
  restartable sequences has finally reached a consensus.

  It comes with the basic non disputed core implementation along with
  support for arm, powerpc and x86 and a full set of selftests

  It was exposed to linux-next earlier this week, so it does not fully
  comply with the merge window requirements, but there is really no
  point to drag it out for yet another cycle"

arm: Add syscall detection for restartable sequences

2018-06-06T09:58:31+00:00

Syscalls are not allowed inside restartable sequences, so add a call to
rseq_syscall() at the very beginning of system call exiting path for
CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y kernel. This could help us to detect whether there
is a syscall issued inside restartable sequences.

ARM: spectre-v1: fix syscall entry

Prevent speculation at the syscall table decoding by clamping the index
used to zero on invalid system call numbers, and using the csdb
speculative barrier.

ARM: probes: avoid adding kprobes to sensitive kernel-entry/exit code

2017-12-17T22:14:21+00:00

Avoid adding kprobes to any of the kernel entry/exit or startup
assembly code, or code in the identity-mapped region.  This code does
not conform to the standard C conventions, which means that the
expectations of the kprobes code is not forfilled.

Placing kprobes at some of these locations results in the kernel trying
to return to userspace addresses while retaining the CPU in kernel mode.

arm/syscalls: Optimize address limit check

2017-09-17T17:45:33+00:00

Disable the generic address limit check in favor of an architecture
specific optimized implementation. The generic implementation using
pending work flags did not work well with ARM and alignment faults.

The address limit is checked on each syscall return path to user-mode
path as well as the irq user-mode return function. If the address limit
was changed, a function is called to report data corruption (stopping
the kernel or process based on configuration).

The address limit check has to be done before any pending work because
they can reset the address limit and the process is killed using a
SIGKILL signal. For example the lkdtm address limit check does not work
because the signal to kill the process will reset the user-mode address
limit.
