      arm64: hw_breakpoint: fix watchpoint matching for tagged pointers · 7dcd9dd8
      Kristina Martsenko authored
      When we take a watchpoint exception, the address that triggered the
      watchpoint is found in FAR_EL1. We compare it to the address of each
      configured watchpoint to see which one was hit.
      
      The configured watchpoint addresses are untagged, while the address in
      FAR_EL1 will have an address tag if the data access was done using a
      tagged address. The tag needs to be removed to compare the address to
      the watchpoints.
      
      Currently we don't remove it, and as a result can report the wrong
      watchpoint as being hit (specifically, always either the highest TTBR0
      watchpoint or lowest TTBR1 watchpoint). This patch removes the tag.

      arm64: traps: fix userspace cache maintenance emulation on a tagged pointer · 81cddd65
      Kristina Martsenko authored
      When we emulate userspace cache maintenance in the kernel, we can
      currently send the task a SIGSEGV even though the maintenance was done
      on a valid address. This happens if the address has a non-zero address
      tag, and happens to not be mapped in.
      
      When we get the address from a user register, we don't currently remove
      the address tag before performing cache maintenance on it. If the
      maintenance faults, we end up in either __do_page_fault, where find_vma
      can't find the VMA if the address has a tag, or in do_translation_fault,
      where the tagged address will appear to be above TASK_SIZE. In both
      cases, the address is not mapped in, and the task is sent a SIGSEGV.
      
      This patch removes the tag from the address before using it. With this
      patch, the fault is handled correctly, the address gets mapped in, and
      the cache maintenance succeeds.
      
      As a second bug, if cache maintenance (correctly) fails on an invalid
      tagged address, the address gets passed into arm64_notify_segfault,
      where find_vma fails to find the VMA due to the tag, and the wrong
      si_code may be sent as part of the siginfo_t of the segfault. With this
      patch, the correct si_code is sent.

      arm64: module: split core and init PLT sections · 24af6c4e
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      
      
      The arm64 module PLT code allocates all PLT entries in a single core
      section, since the overhead of having a separate init PLT section is
      not justified by the small number of PLT entries usually required for
      init code.
      
      However, the core and init module regions are allocated independently,
      and there is a corner case where the core region may be allocated from
      the VMALLOC region if the dedicated module region is exhausted, but the
      init region, being much smaller, can still be allocated from the module
      region. This leads to relocation failures if the distance between those
      regions exceeds 128 MB. (In fact, this corner case is highly unlikely to
      occur on arm64, but the issue has been observed on ARM, whose module
      region is much smaller).
      
      So split the core and init PLT regions, and name the latter ".init.plt"
      so it gets allocated along with (and sufficiently close to) the .init
      sections that it serves. Also, given that init PLT entries may need to
      be emitted for branches that target the core module, modify the logic
      that disregards defined symbols to only disregard symbols that are
      defined in the same section as the relocated branch instruction.
      
      Since there may now be two PLT entries associated with each entry in
      the symbol table, we can no longer hijack the symbol::st_size fields
      to record the addresses of PLT entries as we emit them for zero-addend
      relocations. So instead, perform an explicit comparison to check for
      duplicate entries.

      arm64: Silence spurious kbuild warning on menuconfig · d91750f1
      Marc Zyngier authored
      Since bbb56c27 ("arm64: Add detection code for broken .inst support
      in binutils"), running any make target that doesn't involve the cross
      compiler results in a spurious warning:
      
      $ make ARCH=arm64 menuconfig
      arch/arm64/Makefile:43: Detected assembler with broken .inst; disassembly will be unreliable
      
      while
      
      $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-arm-linux- menuconfig
      
      is silent (assuming your compiler is not affected). That's because
      the code that tests for the workaround is always run, irrespective
      of the current configuration being available or not.
      
      An easy fix is to make the detection conditional on CONFIG_ARM64
      being defined, which is only the case when actually building
      something.
      
      Fixes: bbb56c27
