"Highlights:

- Infrastructure for secure boot on some bare metal Power9 machines.
The firmware support is still in development, so the code here
won't actually activate secure boot on any existing systems.

- A change to xmon (our crash handler / pseudo-debugger) to restrict
it to read-only mode when the kernel is lockdown'ed, otherwise it's
trivial to drop into xmon and modify kernel data, such as the
lockdown state.

- Support for KASLR on 32-bit BookE machines (Freescale / NXP).

- Fixes for our flush_icache_range() and __kernel_sync_dicache()
(VDSO) to work with memory ranges >4GB.

- Some reworks of the pseries CMM (Cooperative Memory Management)
driver to make it behave more like other balloon drivers and enable
some cleanups of generic mm code.

- A series of fixes to our hardware breakpoint support to properly
handle unaligned watchpoint addresses.

Plus a bunch of other smaller improvements, fixes and cleanups.

powerpc/perf: remove current_is_64bit()

2019-11-13T05:58:10+00:00

Since commit ed1cd6deb013 ("powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK")
current_is_64bit() is quivalent to !is_32bit_task().
Remove the redundant function.

perf_event: Add support for LSM and SELinux checks

2019-10-17T19:31:55+00:00

In current mainline, the degree of access to perf_event_open(2) system
call depends on the perf_event_paranoid sysctl.  This has a number of
limitations:

1. The sysctl is only a single value. Many types of accesses are controlled
   based on the single value thus making the control very limited and
   coarse grained.
2. The sysctl is global, so if the sysctl is changed, then that means
   all processes get access to perf_event_open(2) opening the door to
   security issues.

This patch adds LSM and SELinux access checking which will be used in
Android to access perf_event_open(2) for the purposes of attaching BPF
programs to tracepoints, perf profiling and other operations from
userspace. These operations are intended for production systems.

5 new LSM hooks are added:
1. perf_event_open: This controls access during the perf_event_open(2)
   syscall itself. The hook is called from all the places that the
   perf_event_paranoid sysctl is checked to keep it consistent with the
   systctl. The hook gets passed a 'type' argument which controls CPU,
   kernel and tracepoint accesses (in this context, CPU, kernel and
   tracepoint have the same semantics as the perf_event_paranoid sysctl).
   Additionally, I added an 'open' type which is similar to
   perf_event_paranoid sysctl == 3 patch carried in Android and several other
   distros but was rejected in mainline [1] in 2016.

2. perf_event_alloc: This allocates a new security object for the event
   which stores the current SID within the event. It will be useful when
   the perf event's FD is passed through IPC to another process which may
   try to read the FD. Appropriate security checks will limit access.

3. perf_event_free: Called when the event is closed.

4. perf_event_read: Called from the read(2) and mmap(2) syscalls for the event.

5. perf_event_write: Called from the ioctl(2) syscalls for the event.

[1] https://lwn.net/Articles/696240/

Since Peter had suggest LSM hooks in 2016 [1], I am adding his
Suggested-by tag below.

To use this patch, we set the perf_event_paranoid sysctl to -1 and then
apply selinux checking as appropriate (default deny everything, and then
add policy rules to give access to domains that need it). In the future
we can remove the perf_event_paranoid sysctl altogether.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Notable changes:

- Removal of the NPU DMA code, used by the out-of-tree Nvidia driver,
as well as some other functions only used by drivers that haven't
(yet?) made it upstream.

- A fix for a bug in our handling of hardware watchpoints (eg. perf
record -e mem: ...) which could lead to register corruption and
kernel crashes.

- Enable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which allows us to use large pages for
vmalloc when using the Radix MMU.

- A large but incremental rewrite of our exception handling code to
use gas macros rather than multiple levels of nested CPP macros.

And the usual small fixes, cleanups and improvements.

powerpc/perf: Use cpumask_last() to determine the designated cpu for nest/core units.

2019-06-19T10:05:09+00:00

Nest and core IMC (In-Memory Collection counters) assigns a particular
cpu as the designated target for counter data collection. During
system boot, the first online cpu in a chip gets assigned as the
designated cpu for that chip(for nest-imc) and the first online cpu in
a core gets assigned as the designated cpu for that core(for
core-imc).

If the designated cpu goes offline, the next online cpu from the same
chip(for nest-imc)/core(for core-imc) is assigned as the next target,
and the event context is migrated to the target cpu. Currently,
cpumask_any_but() function is used to find the target cpu. Though this
function is expected to return a `random` cpu, this always returns the
next online cpu.

If all cpus in a chip/core is offlined in a sequential manner,
starting from the first cpu, the event migration has to happen for all
the cpus which goes offline. Since the migration process involves a
grace period, the total time taken to offline all the cpus will be
significantly high.

Example:
  In a system which has 2 sockets, with
  NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0-87
  NUMA node8 CPU(s):     88-175

  Time taken to offline cpu 88-175:
  real    2m56.099s
  user    0m0.191s
  sys     0m0.000s

Use cpumask_last() to choose the target cpu, when the designated cpu
goes online, so the migration will happen only when the last_cpu in
the mask goes offline. This way the time taken to offline all cpus in
a chip/core can be reduced.

With the patch:

  Time taken  to offline cpu 88-175:
  real    0m12.207s
  user    0m0.171s
  sys     0m0.000s

Offlining all cpus in reverse order is also taken care because,
cpumask_any_but() is used to find the designated cpu if the last cpu
in the mask goes offline. Since cpumask_any_but() always return the
first cpu in the mask, that becomes the designated cpu and migration
will happen only when the first_cpu in the mask goes offline.

Example: With the patch,

  Time taken to offline cpu from 175-88:
  real    0m9.330s
  user    0m0.110s
  sys     0m0.000s
