Currently, we expect to be able to reach ftrace_caller() from all
ftrace-enabled functions through a single relative branch. With large
kernel configs, we see functions outside of 32MB of ftrace_caller()
causing ftrace_init() to bail.

In such configurations, gcc/ld emits two types of trampolines for mcount():
1. A long_branch, which has a single branch to mcount() for functions that
   are one hop away from mcount():
	c0000000019e8544 <00031b56.long_branch._mcount>:
	c0000000019e8544:	4a 69 3f ac 	b       c00000000007c4f0 <._mcount>

2. A plt_branch, for functions that are farther away from mcount():
	c0000000051f33f8 <0008ba04.plt_branch._mcount>:
	c0000000051f33f8:	3d 82 ff a4 	addis   r12,r2,-92
	c0000000051f33fc:	e9 8c 04 20 	ld      r12,1056(r12)
	c0000000051f3400:	7d 89 03 a6 	mtctr   r12
	c0000000051f3404:	4e 80 04 20 	bctr

We can reuse those trampolines for ftrace if we can have those
trampolines go to ftrace_caller() instead. However, with ABIv2, we
cannot depend on r2 being valid. As such, we use only the long_branch
trampolines by patching those to instead branch to ftrace_caller or
ftrace_regs_caller.

In addition, we add additional trampolines around .text and .init.text
to catch locations that are covered by the plt branches. This allows
ftrace to work with most large kernel configurations.

For now, we always patch the trampolines to go to ftrace_regs_caller,
which is slightly inefficient. This can be optimized further at a later
point.

This is required to be able to disable the speculation barrier. Only one barrier type is supported and it does nothing when the firmware does not enable it. Also re-patching modules is not supported So the only meaningful thing that can be done is patching out the speculation barrier at boot when the user says it is not wanted.

Based on the RFI patching. This is required to be able to disable the
speculation barrier.

Only one barrier type is supported and it does nothing when the
firmware does not enable it. Also re-patching modules is not supported
So the only meaningful thing that can be done is patching out the
speculation barrier at boot when the user says it is not wanted.

powerpc/64s: Add support for a store forwarding barrier at kernel entry/exit 2018-05-22T03:45:31+00:00 Nicholas Piggin npiggin@gmail.com 2018-05-21T23:00:00+00:00 a048a07d7f4535baa4cbad6bc024f175317ab938 On some CPUs we can prevent a vulnerability related to store-to-load forwarding by preventing store forwarding between privilege domains, by inserting a barrier in kernel entry and exit paths. This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9 powerpc CPUs. Barriers must be inserted generally before the first load after moving to a higher privilege, and after the last store before moving to a lower privilege, HV and PR privilege transitions must be protected. Barriers are added as patch sections, with all kernel/hypervisor entry points patched, and the exit points to lower privilge levels patched similarly to the RFI flush patching. Firmware advertisement is not implemented yet, so CPU flush types are hard coded. Thanks to Michal Suchánek for bug fixes and review.
