<title>x86/uaccess: avoid check_object_size() in copy_from_user_nmi()</title>

<id>59298997df89e19aad426d4ae0a7e5037074da5a</id>
<content type='text'>
The check_object_size() helper under CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is designed
to skip any checks where the length is known at compile time as a
reasonable heuristic to avoid "likely known-good" cases.  However, it can
only do this when the copy_*_user() helpers are, themselves, inline too.

Using find_vmap_area() requires taking a spinlock.  The
check_object_size() helper can call find_vmap_area() when the destination
is in vmap memory.  If show_regs() is called in interrupt context, it will
attempt a call to copy_from_user_nmi(), which may call check_object_size()
and then find_vmap_area().  If something in normal context happens to be
in the middle of calling find_vmap_area() (with the spinlock held), the
interrupt handler will hang forever.

The copy_from_user_nmi() call is actually being called with a fixed-size
length, so check_object_size() should never have been called in the first
place.  Given the narrow constraints, just replace the
__copy_from_user_inatomic() call with an open-coded version that calls
only into the sanitizers and not check_object_size(), followed by a call
to raw_copy_from_user().

Do fine-grained Kconfig for all the various retbleed parts.

NOTE: if your compiler doesn't support return thunks this will
silently 'upgrade' your mitigation to IBPB, you might not like this.

<title>x86: Add magic AMD return-thunk</title>

Note: needs to be in a section distinct from Retpolines such that the
Retpoline RET substitution cannot possibly use immediate jumps.

ORC unwinding for zen_untrain_ret() and __x86_return_thunk() is a
little tricky but works due to the fact that zen_untrain_ret() doesn't
have any stack ops and as such will emit a single ORC entry at the
start (+0x3f).

Meanwhile, unwinding an IP, including the __x86_return_thunk() one
(+0x40) will search for the largest ORC entry smaller or equal to the
IP, these will find the one ORC entry (+0x3f) and all works.

<title>x86: Use return-thunk in asm code</title>

Use the return thunk in asm code. If the thunk isn't needed, it will
get patched into a RET instruction during boot by apply_returns().

Since alternatives can't handle relocations outside of the first
instruction, putting a 'jmp __x86_return_thunk' in one is not valid,
therefore carve out the memmove ERMS path into a separate label and jump
to it.

Put the actual retpoline thunk as the original code so that it can
become more complicated. Specifically, it allows RET to be a JMP,
which can't be .altinstr_replacement since that doesn't do relocations
(except for the very first instruction).

Pull x86 cleanups from Borislav Petkov:

 - Serious sanitization and cleanup of the whole APERF/MPERF and
   frequency invariance code along with removing the need for
   unnecessary IPIs

 - Finally remove a.out support

 - The usual trivial cleanups and fixes all over x86

* tag 'x86_cleanups_for_v5.19_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (21 commits)
  x86: Remove empty files
  x86/speculation: Add missing srbds=off to the mitigations= help text
  x86/prctl: Remove pointless task argument
  x86/aperfperf: Make it correct on 32bit and UP kernels
  x86/aperfmperf: Integrate the fallback code from show_cpuinfo()
  x86/aperfmperf: Replace arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
  x86/aperfmperf: Replace aperfmperf_get_khz()
  x86/aperfmperf: Store aperf/mperf data for cpu frequency reads
  x86/aperfmperf: Make parts of the frequency invariance code unconditional
  x86/aperfmperf: Restructure arch_scale_freq_tick()
  x86/aperfmperf: Put frequency invariance aperf/mperf data into a struct
  x86/aperfmperf: Untangle Intel and AMD frequency invariance init
  x86/aperfmperf: Separate AP/BP frequency invariance init
  x86/smp: Move APERF/MPERF code where it belongs
  x86/aperfmperf: Dont wake idle CPUs in arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
  x86/process: Fix kernel-doc warning due to a changed function name
  x86: Remove a.out support
  x86/mm: Replace nodes_weight() with nodes_empty() where appropriate
  x86: Replace cpumask_weight() with cpumask_empty() where appropriate
  x86/pkeys: Remove __arch_set_user_pkey_access() declaration
