Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables

2018-06-14T03:21:18+00:00

The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler
support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler
supported.

That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case
now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support
directly.

HOWEVER.

It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong
stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file,
the sane stack protector configuration would look like

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
  CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y

and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes,
it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had
been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version
used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would
disable it in the new config, resulting in:

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
  CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with
the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing.

The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack
protector option, but also the strong one.  This does that by just
removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really
is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead
automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users).

This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their
choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes.
The end result would generally look like this:

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
  CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler
infrastructure, not the user selections.

x86/CPU: Move cpu local function declarations to local header

x86/CPU: Modify detect_extended_topology() to return result

2018-05-06T10:49:16+00:00

Current implementation does not communicate whether it can successfully
detect CPUID function 0xB information. Therefore, modify the function to
return success or error codes. This will be used by subsequent patches.

x86/kvm/vmx: avoid expensive rdmsr for MSR_GS_BASE

2018-03-16T21:03:54+00:00

vmx_save_host_state() is only called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() so
the context is pretty well defined and as we're past 'swapgs' MSR_GS_BASE
should contain kernel's GS base which we point to irq_stack_union.

Add new kernelmode_gs_base() API, irq_stack_union needs to be exported
as KVM can be build as module.

vmx_save_host_state() is only called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() so
the context is pretty well defined. Read MSR_{FS,KERNEL_GS}_BASE from
current->thread after calling save_fsgs() which takes care of
X86_BUG_NULL_SEG case now and will do RD[FG,GS]BASE when FSGSBASE
extensions are exposed to userspace (currently they are not).

x86/CPU: Add a microcode loader callback

2018-02-17T07:43:55+00:00

Add a callback function which the microcode loader calls when microcode
has been updated to a newer revision. Do the callback only when no error
was encountered during loading.

x86/cpu: Change type of x86_cache_size variable to unsigned int

2018-02-15T00:15:53+00:00

Currently, x86_cache_size is of type int, which makes no sense as we
will never have a valid cache size equal or less than 0. So instead of
initializing this variable to -1, it can perfectly be initialized to 0
and use it as an unsigned variable instead.
