powerpc/32: Clear on-stack exception marker upon exception return

2019-03-03T13:37:23+00:00

Clear the on-stack STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER on exception exit in order
to avoid confusing stacktrace like the one below.

  Call Trace:

With this patch the trace becomes:

powerpc/32: Remove CURRENT_THREAD_INFO and rename TI_CPU

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

Now that thread_info is similar to task_struct, its address is in r2
so CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro is useless. This patch removes it.

This patch also moves the 'tovirt(r2, r2)' down just before the
reactivation of MMU translation, so that we keep the physical address
of 'current' in r2 until then. It avoids a few calls to tophys().

At the same time, as the 'cpu' field is not anymore in thread_info,
TI_CPU is renamed TASK_CPU by this patch.

It also allows to get rid of a couple of
'#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE' as ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY()
and ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_EXIT() are empty when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not defined.

powerpc: regain entire stack space

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

thread_info is not anymore in the stack, so the entire stack
can now be used.

There is also no risk anymore of corrupting task_cpu(p) with a
stack overflow so the patch removes the test.

When doing this, an explicit test for NULL stack pointer is
needed in validate_sp() as it is not anymore implicitely covered
by the sizeof(thread_info) gap.

In the meantime, with the previous patch all pointers to the stacks
are not anymore pointers to thread_info so this patch changes them
to void*

powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which
moves the thread_info into task_struct.

Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages:
  - It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack
    overflows.
  - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked,
    making a number of attacks more difficult.

This has the following consequences:
  - thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct.
  - The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when
    CONFIG_SMP is active.
  - thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field.

This patch:
  - Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes.
  - Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current.
  - Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
  - Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get ->cpu from current without
    including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without
    including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication
    between ASM constants and C constants.
  - Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer
    argument.

powerpc: Rename THREAD_INFO to TASK_STACK

2019-02-23T11:31:40+00:00

This patch renames THREAD_INFO to TASK_STACK, because it is in fact
the offset of the pointer to the stack in task_struct so this pointer
will not be impacted by the move of THREAD_INFO.

Also make it available on 64-bit, as we'll need it there when we
activate THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.

powerpc/6xx: Don't use SPRN_SPRG2 for storing stack pointer while in RTAS

2019-02-21T13:10:16+00:00

When calling RTAS, the stack pointer is stored in SPRN_SPRG2
in order to be able to restore it in case of machine check in RTAS.

As machine check is not a perfomance critical path, this patch
frees SPRN_SPRG2 by using a field in thread struct instead.

powerpc: change CONFIG_6xx to CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_32

2018-11-26T11:33:37+00:00

Today we have:

config PPC_BOOK3S_32
	bool "512x/52xx/6xx/7xx/74xx/82xx/83xx/86xx"
	[depends on PPC32 within a choice]

config PPC_BOOK3S
	def_bool y
	depends on PPC_BOOK3S_32 || PPC_BOOK3S_64

config 6xx
	def_bool y
	depends on PPC32 && PPC_BOOK3S

6xx is therefore redundant with PPC_BOOK3S_32.

In order to make the code clearer, lets use preferably PPC_BOOK3S_32.
This will allow to remove CONFIG_6xx in a later patch.

2018-10-03T05:40:01+00:00

PPC32 uses nonrecoverable_exception() while PPC64 uses
unrecoverable_exception().

Both functions are doing almost the same thing.
