tp_order_fail() uses inverted logic: it returns true in case something
is false, which is only a plus at the IOCCC.
Instead rename it to regular parity as 'text_poke_addr_ordered()',
and adjust the code accordingly.
Also add a comment explaining how the address ordering should be
understood.

It's possible to escape the text_mutex-held assert in
smp_text_poke_batch_process() if the caller uses a properly
batched and sorted series of patch requests, so add
an explicit lockdep_assert_held() to make sure it's
held by all callers.
All text_poke_int3_*() APIs will call either smp_text_poke_batch_process()
or smp_text_poke_batch_flush() internally.
The text_mutex must be held, because tp_vec and tp_vec_nr et al
are all globals, and the INT3 patching machinery itself relies on
external serialization.

So the temp_mm_state_t abstraction used by use_temporary_mm() and
unuse_temporary_mm() is super confusing:
- The whole machinery is about temporarily switching to the
text_poke_mm utility MM that got allocated during bootup
for text-patching purposes alone:
temp_mm_state_t prev;
/*
* Loading the temporary mm behaves as a compiler barrier, which
* guarantees that the PTE will be set at the time memcpy() is done.
*/
prev = use_temporary_mm(text_poke_mm);
- Yet the value that gets saved in the temp_mm_state_t variable
is not the temporary MM ... but the previous MM...
- Ie. we temporarily put the non-temporary MM into a variable
that has the temp_mm_state_t type. This makes no sense whatsoever.
- The confusion continues in unuse_temporary_mm():
static inline void unuse_temporary_mm(temp_mm_state_t prev_state)
Here we unuse an MM that is ... not the temporary MM, but the
previous MM. :-/
Fix up all this confusion by removing the unnecessary layer of
abstraction and using a bog-standard 'struct mm_struct *prev_mm'
variable to save the MM to.

eBPF programs can be run 50,000,000 times per second on busy servers.
Whenever /proc/sys/kernel/bpf_stats_enabled is turned off,
hundreds of calls sites are patched from text_poke_bp_batch()
and we see a huge loss of performance due to false sharing
on bp_desc.refs lasting up to three seconds.

Fix this by replacing bp_desc.refs with a per-cpu bp_refs.
Before the patch, on a host with 240 cores (480 threads):
$ sysctl -wq kernel.bpf_stats_enabled=0

$ bpftool prog | grep run_time_ns

3009063719 run_cnt 82757845 : average cost is 36 nsec per call
After this patch:
$ sysctl -wq kernel.bpf_stats_enabled=0
text_poke_bp_batch(nr_entries=164) : Took 702 usec
$ bpftool prog | grep run_time_ns
...

1928223019 run_cnt 67682728 : average cost is 28 nsec per call
Ie. text-patching performance improved 3700x: from 2.65 seconds
to 0.0007 seconds.
Since the atomic_cond_read_acquire(refs, !VAL) spin-loop was not triggered
even once in my tests, add an unlikely() annotation, because this appears
to be the common case.

While WAIT_FOR_ENDBR is specified to be a full speculation stop; it
has been shown that some implementations are 'leaky' to such an extend
that speculation can escape even the FineIBT preamble.
To deal with this, add additional hardening to the FineIBT preamble.
Notably, using a new LLVM feature:
e223485c9b
which encodes the number of arguments in the kCFI preamble's register.
Using this register<->arity mapping, have the FineIBT preamble CALL
into a stub clobbering the relevant argument registers in the
speculative case.
Scott sayeth thusly:
Microarchitectural attacks such as Branch History Injection (BHI) and
Intra-mode Branch Target Injection (IMBTI) [1] can cause an indirect
call to mispredict to an adversary-influenced target within the same
hardware domain (e.g., within the kernel). Instructions at the
mispredicted target may execute speculatively and potentially expose
kernel data (e.g., to a user-mode adversary) through a
microarchitectural covert channel such as CPU cache state.
CET-IBT [2] is a coarse-grained control-flow integrity (CFI) ISA
extension that enforces that each indirect call (or indirect jump)
must land on an ENDBR (end branch) instruction, even speculatively*.
FineIBT is a software technique that refines CET-IBT by associating
each function type with a 32-bit hash and enforcing (at the callee)
that the hash of the caller's function pointer type matches the hash
of the callee's function type. However, recent research [3] has
demonstrated that the conditional branch that enforces FineIBT's hash
check can be coerced to mispredict, potentially allowing an adversary
to speculatively bypass the hash check:
__cfi_foo:
ENDBR64
SUB R10d, 0x01234567
JZ foo # Even if the hash check fails and ZF=0, this branch could still mispredict as taken
UD2
foo:
...
The techniques demonstrated in [3] require the attacker to be able to
control the contents of at least one live register at the mispredicted
target. Therefore, this patch set introduces a sequence of CMOV
instructions at each indirect-callable target that poisons every live
register with data that the attacker cannot control whenever the
FineIBT hash check fails, thus mitigating any potential attack.
The security provided by this scheme has been discussed in detail on
an earlier thread [4].

When in the middle of a kernel source code file a kernel developer
sees a lone #else or #endif:
...
#else
...
It's not obvious at a glance what those preprocessor blocks are
conditional on, if the starting #ifdef is outside visible range.
So apply the standard pattern we use in such cases elsewhere in
the kernel for large preprocessor blocks:
#ifdef CONFIG_XXX
...
...
...
#endif /* CONFIG_XXX */
...
#ifdef CONFIG_XXX
...
...
...
#else /* !CONFIG_XXX: */
...
...
...
#endif /* !CONFIG_XXX */
( Note that in the #else case we use the /* !CONFIG_XXX */ marker
in the final #endif, not /* CONFIG_XXX */, which serves as an easy
visual marker to differentiate #else or #elif related #endif closures
from singular #ifdef/#endif blocks. )
Also clean up __CFI_DEFAULT definition with a bit more vertical alignment
applied, and a pointless tab converted to the standard space we use in
such definitions.

Now that paravirt call patching is implemented using alternatives, it
is possible to avoid having to patch the alternative sites by
including the altinstr_replacement calls in the call_sites list.
This means we're now stacking relative adjustments like so:
callthunks_patch_builtin_calls():
patches all function calls to target: func() -> func()-10
since the CALL accounting lives in the CALL_PADDING.
This explicitly includes .altinstr_replacement
alt_replace_call():
patches: x86_BUG() -> target()
this patching is done in a relative manner, and will preserve
the above adjustment, meaning that with calldepth patching it
will do: x86_BUG()-10 -> target()-10
apply_relocation():
does code relocation, and adjusts all RIP-relative instructions

On busy multi-threaded workloads, there can be significant contention
on the mm_cpumask at context switch time.
Reduce that contention by updating mm_cpumask lazily, setting the CPU bit
at context switch time (if not already set), and clearing the CPU bit at
the first TLB flush sent to a CPU where the process isn't running.
When a flurry of TLB flushes for a process happen, only the first one
will be sent to CPUs where the process isn't running. The others will
be sent to CPUs where the process is currently running.

objtool complains:
arch/x86/kvm/kvm.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0xc5: call without frame pointer save/setup
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x2eb: call without frame pointer save/setup
Make sure %rSP is an output operand to the respective asm() statements.
The test_cc() hunk and ALT_OUTPUT_SP() courtesy of peterz. Also from him
add some helpful debugging info to the documentation.
Now on to the explanations:
tl;dr: The alternatives macros are pretty fragile.
If I do ALT_OUTPUT_SP(output) in order to be able to package in a %rsp
reference for objtool so that a stack frame gets properly generated, the
inline asm input operand with positional argument 0 in clear_page():
"0" (page)
gets "renumbered" due to the added
: "+r" (current_stack_pointer), "=D" (page)
and then gcc says:
./arch/x86/include/asm/page_64.h:53:9: error: inconsistent operand constraints in an ‘asm’
The fix is to use an explicit "D" constraint which points to a singleton
register class (gcc terminology) which ends up doing what is expected
here: the page pointer - input and output - should be in the same %rdi
register.
Other register classes have more than one register in them - example:
"r" and "=r" or "A":
‘A’
The ‘a’ and ‘d’ registers. This class is used for
instructions that return double word results in the ‘ax:dx’
register pair. Single word values will be allocated either in
‘ax’ or ‘dx’.
so using "D" and "=D" just works in this particular case.
And yes, one would say, sure, why don't you do "+D" but then:
: "+r" (current_stack_pointer), "+D" (page)
: [old] "i" (clear_page_orig), [new1] "i" (clear_page_rep), [new2] "i" (clear_page_erms),
: "cc", "memory", "rax", "rcx")
now find the Waldo^Wcomma which throws a wrench into all this.
Because that silly macro has an "input..." consume-all last macro arg
and in it, one is supposed to supply input *and* clobbers, leading to
silly syntax snafus.
Yap, they need to be cleaned up, one fine day...

Since FineIBT performs checking at the destination, it is weaker against
attacks that can construct arbitrary executable memory contents. As such,
some system builders want to run with FineIBT disabled by default. Allow
the "cfi=kcfi" boot param mode to be selectable through Kconfig via the
newly introduced CONFIG_CFI_AUTO_DEFAULT.

Instead of making increasingly complicated ALTERNATIVE_n()
implementations, use a nested alternative expression.
The only difference between:
ALTERNATIVE_2(oldinst, newinst1, flag1, newinst2, flag2)
and
ALTERNATIVE(ALTERNATIVE(oldinst, newinst1, flag1),
newinst2, flag2)
is that the outer alternative can add additional padding when the inner
alternative is the shorter one, which then results in
alt_instr::instrlen being inconsistent.
However, this is easily remedied since the alt_instr entries will be
consecutive and it is trivial to compute the max(alt_instr::instrlen) at
runtime while patching.
Specifically, after this the ALTERNATIVE_2 macro, after CPP expansion
(and manual layout), looks like this:
.macro ALTERNATIVE_2 oldinstr, newinstr1, ft_flags1, newinstr2, ft_flags2
740:
740: \oldinstr ;
741: .skip -(((744f-743f)-(741b-740b)) > 0) * ((744f-743f)-(741b-740b)),0x90 ;
742: .pushsection .altinstructions,"a" ;
altinstr_entry 740b,743f,\ft_flags1,742b-740b,744f-743f ;
.popsection ;
.pushsection .altinstr_replacement,"ax" ;
743: \newinstr1 ;
744: .popsection ; ;
741: .skip -(((744f-743f)-(741b-740b)) > 0) * ((744f-743f)-(741b-740b)),0x90 ;
742: .pushsection .altinstructions,"a" ;
altinstr_entry 740b,743f,\ft_flags2,742b-740b,744f-743f ;
.popsection ;
.pushsection .altinstr_replacement,"ax" ;
743: \newinstr2 ;
744: .popsection ;
.endm
The only label that is ambiguous is 740, however they all reference the
same spot, so that doesn't matter.
NOTE: obviously only @oldinstr may be an alternative; making @newinstr
an alternative would mean patching .altinstr_replacement which very
likely isn't what is intended, also the labels will be confused in that
case.
[ bp: Debug an issue where it would match the wrong two insns and
and consider them nested due to the same signed offsets in the
.alternative section and use instr_va() to compare the full virtual
addresses instead.
- Use new labels to denote that the new, nested
alternatives are being used when staring at preprocessed output.
- Use the %c constraint everywhere instead of %P and document the
difference for future reference. ]

Commit in Fixes moved the optimize_nops() call inside apply_relocation()
and made it a second optimization pass after the relocations have been
done.
Since optimize_nops() works only on NOPs, that is fine and it'll simply
jump over instructions which are not NOPs.
However, it made that call with repl_len as the buffer length to
optimize.
However, it can happen that there are alternatives calls like this one:
alternative("mfence; lfence", "", ALT_NOT(X86_FEATURE_APIC_MSRS_FENCE));
where the replacement length is 0. And using repl_len is wrong because
apply_alternatives() expands the buffer size to the length of the source
insn that is being patched, by padding it with one-byte NOPs:
for (; insn_buff_sz < a->instrlen; insn_buff_sz++)
insn_buff[insn_buff_sz] = 0x90;
Long story short: pass the length of the original instruction(s) as the
length of the temporary buffer which to optimize.
Result:
SMP alternatives: feat: 11*32+27, old: (lapic_next_deadline+0x9/0x50 (ffffffff81061829) len: 6), repl: (ffffffff89b1cc60, len: 0) flags: 0x1

Instead of optimizing NOPs in-place, use a temporary buffer like the
usual alternatives patching flow does. This obviates the need to grab
locks when patching, see
6778977590da ("x86/alternatives: Disable interrupts and sync when optimizing NOPs in place")
While at it, add nomenclature definitions clarifying and simplifying the
naming of function-local variables in the alternatives code.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up
build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes.
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
up to 40%.
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
bad PP users and possible leaks.
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
many active connections to the same destination.
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs.
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
to 128KB and namespecifying it.
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations.
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries.
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first.
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
- More data-race annotations.
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
BPF
---
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool

BPF struct_ops uses __arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline() to write
trampolines for indirect function calls. These tramplines much have
matching CFI.
In order to obtain the correct CFI hash for the various methods, add a
matching structure that contains stub functions, the compiler will
generate correct CFI which we can pilfer for the trampolines.

The current BPF call convention is __nocfi, except when it calls !JIT things,
then it calls regular C functions.
It so happens that with FineIBT the __nocfi and C calling conventions are
incompatible. Specifically __nocfi will call at func+0, while FineIBT will have
endbr-poison there, which is not a valid indirect target. Causing #CP.
Notably this only triggers on IBT enabled hardware, which is probably why this
hasn't been reported (also, most people will have JIT on anyway).
Implement proper CFI prologues for the BPF JIT codegen and drop __nocfi for
x86.

apply_alternatives() treats alternatives with the ALT_FLAG_NOT flag set
special as it optimizes the existing NOPs in place.
Unfortunately, this happens with interrupts enabled and does not provide any
form of core synchronization.
So an interrupt hitting in the middle of the update and using the affected code
path will observe a half updated NOP and crash and burn. The following
3 NOP sequence was observed to expose this crash halfway reliably under QEMU
32bit:
0x90 0x90 0x90
which is replaced by the optimized 3 byte NOP:
0x8d 0x76 0x00
So an interrupt can observe:
1) 0x90 0x90 0x90 nop nop nop
2) 0x8d 0x90 0x90 undefined
3) 0x8d 0x76 0x90 lea -0x70(%esi),%esi
4) 0x8d 0x76 0x00 lea 0x0(%esi),%esi
Where only #1 and #4 are true NOPs. The same problem exists for 64bit obviously.
Disable interrupts around this NOP optimization and invoke sync_core()
before re-enabling them.

text_poke_early() does:
local_irq_save(flags);
memcpy(addr, opcode, len);
local_irq_restore(flags);
sync_core();
That's not really correct because the synchronization should happen before
interrupts are re-enabled to ensure that a pending interrupt observes the
complete update of the opcodes.
It's not entirely clear whether the interrupt entry provides enough
serialization already, but moving the sync_core() invocation into interrupt
disabled region does no harm and is obviously correct.

In order to prepare replacing of paravirt patching with alternative
patching, add the capability to replace an indirect call with a direct
one.
This is done via a new flag ALT_FLAG_CALL as the target of the CALL
instruction needs to be evaluated using the value of the location
addressed by the indirect call.
For convenience, add a macro for a default CALL instruction. In case it
is being used without the new flag being set, it will result in a BUG()
when being executed. As in most cases, the feature used will be
X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS so add another macro ALT_CALL_ALWAYS usable for the
flags parameter of the ALTERNATIVE macros.
For a complete replacement, handle the special cases of calling a nop
function and an indirect call of NULL the same way as paravirt does.

Contrary to alternatives, relocations are currently not supported in
call thunk templates. Re-use the existing infrastructure from
alternative.c to allow %rip-relative relocations when copying call
thunk template from its storage location.
The patch allows unification of ASM_INCREMENT_CALL_DEPTH, which already
uses PER_CPU_VAR macro, with INCREMENT_CALL_DEPTH, used in call thunk
template, which is currently limited to use absolute address.

Similar to the alternative patching, use a relative reference for original
instruction offset rather than absolute one, which saves 8 bytes for one
PARA_SITE entry on x86_64. As a result, a R_X86_64_PC32 relocation is
generated instead of an R_X86_64_64 one, which also reduces relocation
metadata on relocatable builds. Hardcode the alignment to 4 now.

Fei has reported that KASAN triggers during apply_alternatives() on
a 5-level paging machine:
BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in rcu_is_watching()

__asan_load4()
rcu_is_watching()
trace_hardirqs_on()

...
On machines with 5-level paging, cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_LA57)
gets patched. It includes KASAN code, where KASAN_SHADOW_START depends on
__VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT, which is defined with cpu_feature_enabled().
KASAN gets confused when apply_alternatives() patches the
KASAN_SHADOW_START users. A test patch that makes KASAN_SHADOW_START
static, by replacing __VIRTUAL_MASK_SHIFT with 56, works around the issue.
Fix it for real by disabling KASAN while the kernel is patching alternatives.

made '__x86_return_thunk' a placeholder value. All code setting
X86_FEATURE_RETHUNK also changes the value of 'x86_return_thunk'. So
the optimization at the beginning of apply_returns() is dead code.
Also, before the above-mentioned commit, the optimization actually had a

Alyssa noticed that when building the kernel with CFI_CLANG+IBT and
booting on IBT enabled hardware to obtain FineIBT, the indirect
functions look like:
__cfi_foo:
endbr64
subl $hash, %r10d
jz 1f
ud2
nop
1:
foo:
endbr64
This is because the compiler generates code for kCFI+IBT. In that case
the caller does the hash check and will jump to +0, so there must be
an ENDBR there. The compiler doesn't know about FineIBT at all; also
it is possible to actually use kCFI+IBT when booting with 'cfi=kcfi'
on IBT enabled hardware.
Having this second ENDBR however makes it possible to elide the CFI
check. Therefore, we should poison this second ENDBR when switching to
FineIBT mode.

Kees noted that IBT sealing could be extended to kCFI.
Fundamentally it is the list of functions that do not have their
address taken and are thus never called indirectly. It doesn't matter
that objtool uses IBT infrastructure to determine this list, once we
have it it can also be used to clobber kCFI hashes and avoid kCFI
indirect calls.

Debugging in the kernel has started slowing down the kernel by a
noticeable amount. The ftrace start up tests are triggering the softlockup
watchdog on some boxes. This is caused by the start up tests that enable
function and function graph tracing several times. Sprinkling
cond_resched() just in the start up test code was not enough to stop the
softlockup from triggering. It would sometimes trigger in the
text_poke_bp_batch() code.
When function tracing enables all functions, it will call
text_poke_queue() to queue the places that need to be patched. Every
256 entries will do a "flush" that calls text_poke_bp_batch() to do the
update of the 256 locations. As this is in a scheduleable context,
calling cond_resched() at the start of text_poke_bp_batch() will ensure
that other tasks could get a chance to run while the patching is
happening. This keeps the softlockup from triggering in the start up
tests.

Address two issues:
- it no longer hard requires single byte NOP runs - now it accepts any
NOP and NOPL encoded instruction (but not the more complicated 32bit
NOPs).
- it writes a single 'instruction' replacement.
Specifically, ORC unwinder relies on the tail NOP of an alternative to
be a single instruction. In particular, it relies on the inner bytes not
being executed.
Once the max supported NOP length has been reached (currently 8, could easily
be extended to 11 on x86_64), switch to JMP.d8 and INT3 padding to
achieve the same result.
Objtool uses this guarantee in the analysis of alternative/overlapping
CFI state for the ORC unwinder data. Every instruction edge gets a CFI
state and the more instructions the larger the chance of conflicts.

A little while ago someone (Kirill) ran into the whole 'alternatives don't
do relocations nonsense' again and I got annoyed enough to actually look
at the code.
Since the whole alternative machinery already fully decodes the
instructions it is simple enough to adjust immediates and displacement
when needed. Specifically, the immediates for IP modifying instructions
(JMP, CALL, Jcc) and the displacement for RIP-relative instructions.
[ bp: Massage comment some more and get rid of third loop in
apply_relocation(). ]

In order to re-write Jcc.d32 instructions text_poke_bp() needs to be
taught about them.
The biggest hurdle is that the whole machinery is currently made for 5
byte instructions and extending this would grow struct text_poke_loc
which is currently a nice 16 bytes and used in an array.
However, since text_poke_loc contains a full copy of the (s32)
displacement, it is possible to map the Jcc.d32 2 byte opcodes to
Jcc.d8 1 byte opcode for the int3 emulation.
This then leaves the replacement bytes; fudge that by only storing the
last 5 bytes and adding the rule that 'length == 6' instruction will
be prefixed with a 0x0f byte.

Add a struct alt_instr.flags field which will contain different flags
controlling alternatives patching behavior.
The initial idea was to be able to specify it as a separate macro
parameter but that would mean touching all possible invocations of the
alternatives macros and thus a lot of churn.
What is more, as PeterZ suggested, being able to say ALT_NOT(feature) is
very readable and explains exactly what is meant.
So make the feature field a u32 where the patching flags are the upper
u16 part of the dword quantity while the lower u16 word is the feature.
The highest feature number currently is 0x26a (i.e., word 19) so there
is plenty of space. If that becomes insufficient, the field can be
extended to u64 which will then make struct alt_instr of the nice size
of 16 bytes (14 bytes currently).
There should be no functional changes resulting from this.

been long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.
What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets applied,
it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track the call depth
of the stack at any time.
When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific value
for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and avoids its
underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant of Retbleed.
This software-only solution brings a lot of the lost performance back,
