io_bitmap_exit() is invoked from exit_thread() when a task exists or
when a fork fails. In the latter case the exit_thread() cleans up
resources which were allocated during fork().
io_bitmap_exit() invokes task_update_io_bitmap(), which in turn ends up
in tss_update_io_bitmap(). tss_update_io_bitmap() operates on the
current task. If current has TIF_IO_BITMAP set, but no bitmap installed,
tss_update_io_bitmap() crashes with a NULL pointer dereference.
There are two issues, which lead to that problem:
1) io_bitmap_exit() should not invoke task_update_io_bitmap() when
the task, which is cleaned up, is not the current task. That's a
clear indicator for a cleanup after a failed fork().
2) A task should not have TIF_IO_BITMAP set and neither a bitmap
installed nor IOPL emulation level 3 activated.
This happens when a kernel thread is created in the context of
a user space thread, which has TIF_IO_BITMAP set as the thread
flags are copied and the IO bitmap pointer is cleared.
Other than in the failed fork() case this has no impact because
kernel threads including IO workers never return to user space and
therefore never invoke tss_update_io_bitmap().
Cure this by adding the missing cleanups and checks:
1) Prevent io_bitmap_exit() to invoke task_update_io_bitmap() if
the to be cleaned up task is not the current task.
2) Clear TIF_IO_BITMAP in copy_thread() unconditionally. For user
space forks it is set later, when the IO bitmap is inherited in
io_bitmap_share().
For paranoia sake, add a warning into tss_update_io_bitmap() to catch
the case, when that code is invoked with inconsistent state.

The main CPUID header <asm/cpuid.h> was originally a storefront for the
headers:
<asm/cpuid/api.h>
<asm/cpuid/leaf_0x2_api.h>
Now that the latter CPUID(0x2) header has been merged into the former,
there is no practical difference between <asm/cpuid.h> and
<asm/cpuid/api.h>.
Migrate all users to the <asm/cpuid/api.h> header, in preparation of

It makes no sense to copy the bytes after sizeof(struct task_struct),
FPU state will be initialized in fpu_clone().
A plain memcpy(dst, src, sizeof(struct task_struct)) should work too,
but "_and_pad" looks safer.

To facilitate the relocation of rdtsc{,_ordered}() from <asm/msr.h>

if it's the init task, and should not be in use when it's some

Return early for PF_KTHREAD or PF_USER_WORKER tasks. The debug

Turn thread.fpu into a pointer. Since most FPU code internals work by passing
around the FPU pointer already, the code generation impact is small.
This allows us to remove the old kludge of task_struct being variable size:
struct task_struct {
...
/*
* New fields for task_struct should be added above here, so that
* they are included in the randomized portion of task_struct.
*/
randomized_struct_fields_end
/* CPU-specific state of this task: */
struct thread_struct thread;
/*
* WARNING: on x86, 'thread_struct' contains a variable-sized
* structure. It *MUST* be at the end of 'task_struct'.
*
* Do not put anything below here!
*/
};
... which creates a number of problems, such as requiring thread_struct to be
the last member of the struct - not allowing it to be struct-randomized, etc.
But the primary motivation is to allow the decoupling of task_struct from
hardware details (<asm/processor.h> in particular), and to eventually allow
the per-task infrastructure:
DECLARE_PER_TASK(type, name);
...
per_task(current, name) = val;
... which requires task_struct to be a constant size struct.
The fpu_thread_struct_whitelist() quirk to hardened usercopy can be removed,
now that the FPU structure is not embedded in the task struct anymore, which
reduces text footprint a bit.

The following commit, 12 years ago:
7e98b71920 ("x86, idle: Use static_cpu_has() for CLFLUSH workaround, add barriers")
added barriers around the CLFLUSH in mwait_idle_with_hints(), justified with:
... and add memory barriers around it since the documentation is explicit
that CLFLUSH is only ordered with respect to MFENCE.
This also triggered, 11 years ago, the same adjustment in:
f8e617f458 ("sched/idle/x86: Optimize unnecessary mwait_idle() resched IPIs")
during development, although it failed to get the static_cpu_has_bug() treatment.
X86_BUG_CLFLUSH_MONITOR (a.k.a the AAI65 errata) is specific to Intel CPUs,
and the SDM currently states:
Executions of the CLFLUSH instruction are ordered with respect to each
other and with respect to writes, locked read-modify-write instructions,
and fence instructions[1].
With footnote 1 reading:
Earlier versions of this manual specified that executions of the CLFLUSH
instruction were ordered only by the MFENCE instruction. All processors
implementing the CLFLUSH instruction also order it relative to the other
operations enumerated above.
i.e. The SDM was incorrect at the time, and barriers should not have been
inserted. Double checking the original AAI65 errata (not available from
intel.com any more) shows no mention of barriers either.
Note: If this were a general codepath, the MFENCEs would be needed, because
AMD CPUs of the same vintage do sport otherwise-unordered CLFLUSHs.
Remove the unnecessary barriers. Furthermore, use a plain alternative(),
rather than static_cpu_has_bug() and/or no optimisation. The workaround
is a single instruction.
Use an explicit %rax pointer rather than a general memory operand, because
MONITOR takes the pointer implicitly in the same way.

Direct HLT instruction execution causes #VEs for TDX VMs which is routed
to hypervisor via TDCALL. If HLT is executed in STI-shadow, resulting #VE
handler will enable interrupts before TDCALL is routed to hypervisor
leading to missed wakeup events, as current TDX spec doesn't expose
interruptibility state information to allow #VE handler to selectively
enable interrupts.
Commit bfe6ed0c67 ("x86/tdx: Add HLT support for TDX guests")
prevented the idle routines from executing HLT instruction in STI-shadow.
But it missed the paravirt routine which can be reached via this path
as an example:
kvm_wait() =>
safe_halt() =>
raw_safe_halt() =>
arch_safe_halt() =>
irq.safe_halt() =>
pv_native_safe_halt()
To reliably handle arch_safe_halt() for TDX VMs, introduce explicit
dependency on CONFIG_PARAVIRT and override paravirt halt()/safe_halt()
routines with TDX-safe versions that execute direct TDCALL and needed
interrupt flag updates. Executing direct TDCALL brings in additional
benefit of avoiding HLT related #VEs altogether.
As tested by Ryan Afranji:
"Tested with the specjbb2015 benchmark. It has heavy lock contention which leads
to many halt calls. TDX VMs suffered a poor score before this patchset.
Verified the major performance improvement with this patchset applied."

The init_task instance of struct task_struct is statically allocated and
may not contain the full FP state for userspace. As such, limit the copy
to the valid area of both init_task and 'dst' and ensure all memory is
initialized.
Note that the FP state is only needed for userspace, and as such it is
entirely reasonable for init_task to not contain parts of it.

- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
memory via variables declared with such attributes,
which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
than the previous inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
better code.
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
to generate slightly better code.
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
to clean up the logic.
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.
[ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

Merge tag 'x86-core-2024-03-11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
of FPU switching - which also generates better code
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
slightly better code
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and to clean up the
logic
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic
- Misc cleanups and fixes

The idle routine selection is done on every CPU bringup operation and
has a guard in place which is effective after the first invocation,
which is a pointless exercise.
Invoke it once on the boot CPU and mark the related functions __init.
The guard check has to stay as xen_set_default_idle() runs early.

amd_e400_idle(), the idle routine for AMD CPUs which are affected by
erratum 400 violates the RCU constraints by invoking tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() after the core code has marked RCU non-idle. The
functions can end up in lockdep or tracing, which rightfully triggers a
RCU warning.
The core code provides now a static branch conditional invocation of the
broadcast functions.
Remove amd_e400_idle(), enforce default_idle() and enable the static branch
on affected CPUs to cure this.

When clone fails after the shadow stack is allocated, any allocated shadow
stack is cleaned up in exit_thread() in copy_process(). So the logic in
copy_thread() is unneeded, and also will not handle failures that happen
outside of copy_thread().
In addition, since there is a second attempt to unmap the same shadow
stack, there is a race where an newly mapped region could get unmapped.
So remove the logic in copy_thread() and rely on exit_thread() to handle
clone failure.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

...
When a process is duplicated, but the child shares the address space with
the parent, there is potential for the threads sharing a single stack to
cause conflicts for each other. In the normal non-CET case this is handled
in two ways.
With regular CLONE_VM a new stack is provided by userspace such that the
parent and child have different stacks.
For vfork, the parent is suspended until the child exits. So as long as
the child doesn't return from the vfork()/CLONE_VFORK calling function and
sticks to a limited set of operations, the parent and child can share the
same stack.
For shadow stack, these scenarios present similar sharing problems. For the
CLONE_VM case, the child and the parent must have separate shadow stacks.
Instead of changing clone to take a shadow stack, have the kernel just
allocate one and switch to it.
Use stack_size passed from clone3() syscall for thread shadow stack size. A
compat-mode thread shadow stack size is further reduced to 1/4. This
allows more threads to run in a 32-bit address space. The clone() does not
pass stack_size, which was added to clone3(). In that case, use
RLIMIT_STACK size and cap to 4 GB.
For shadow stack enabled vfork(), the parent and child can share the same
shadow stack, like they can share a normal stack. Since the parent is
suspended until the child terminates, the child will not interfere with
the parent while executing as long as it doesn't return from the vfork()
and overwrite up the shadow stack. The child can safely overwrite down
the shadow stack, as the parent can just overwrite this later. So CET does
not add any additional limitations for vfork().
Free the shadow stack on thread exit by doing it in mm_release(). Skip
this when exiting a vfork() child since the stack is shared in the
parent.
During this operation, the shadow stack pointer of the new thread needs
to be updated to point to the newly allocated shadow stack. Since the
ability to do this is confined to the FPU subsystem, change
fpu_clone() to take the new shadow stack pointer, and update it
internally inside the FPU subsystem. This part was suggested by Thomas
Gleixner.

stop_this_cpu() tests CPUID leaf 0x8000001f::EAX unconditionally. Intel
CPUs return the content of the highest supported leaf when a non-existing
leaf is read, while AMD CPUs return all zeros for unsupported leafs.
So the result of the test on Intel CPUs is lottery.
While harmless it's incorrect and causes the conditional wbinvd() to be
issued where not required.
Check whether the leaf is supported before reading it.

Tony reported intermittent lockups on poweroff. His analysis identified the
wbinvd() in stop_this_cpu() as the culprit. This was added to ensure that
on SME enabled machines a kexec() does not leave any stale data in the
caches when switching from encrypted to non-encrypted mode or vice versa.
That wbinvd() is conditional on the SME feature bit which is read directly
from CPUID. But that readout does not check whether the CPUID leaf is
available or not. If it's not available the CPU will return the value of
the highest supported leaf instead. Depending on the content the "SME" bit
might be set or not.
That's incorrect but harmless. Making the CPUID readout conditional makes
the observed hangs go away, but it does not fix the underlying problem:
CPU0 CPU1
stop_other_cpus()
send_IPIs(REBOOT); stop_this_cpu()
while (num_online_cpus() > 1); set_online(false);
proceed... -> hang
wbinvd()
WBINVD is an expensive operation and if multiple CPUs issue it at the same
time the resulting delays are even larger.
But CPU0 already observed num_online_cpus() going down to 1 and proceeds
which causes the system to hang.
This issue exists independent of WBINVD, but the delays caused by WBINVD
make it more prominent.
Make this more robust by adding a cpumask which is initialized to the
online CPU mask before sending the IPIs and CPUs clear their bit in
stop_this_cpu() after the WBINVD completed. Check for that cpumask to
become empty in stop_other_cpus() instead of watching num_online_cpus().
The cpumask cannot plug all holes either, but it's better than a raw
counter and allows to restrict the NMI fallback IPI to be sent only the
CPUs which have not reported within the timeout window.

Before commit 076cbf5d2163 ("x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead()
return"), in Xen, when a previously offlined CPU was brought back
online, it unexpectedly resumed execution where it left off in the
middle of the idle loop.
There were some hacks to make that work, but the behavior was surprising
as do_idle() doesn't expect an offlined CPU to return from the dead (in
arch_cpu_idle_dead()).
Now that Xen has been fixed, and the arch-specific implementations of
arch_cpu_idle_dead() also don't return, give it a __noreturn attribute.
This will cause the compiler to complain if an arch-specific
implementation might return. It also improves code generation for both
caller and callee.
Also fixes the following warning:
