Brian Gerst noticed that I did a weird rename in the following commit: b2502b41 ("x86/asm/entry: Untangle 'system_call' into two entry points: entry_SYSCALL_64 and entry_INT80_32") which renamed __NR_ia32_syscall_max to __NR_entry_INT80_compat_max. Now the original name was a misnomer, but the new one is a misnomer as well, as all the 32-bit compat syscall entry points (sysenter, syscall) share the system call table, not just the INT80 based one. Rename it to __NR_syscall_compat_max. Reported-by:

I broke this recently when I changed pt_regs->r8..r11 clearing logic in INT 80 code path. There is a branch from SYSENTER/SYSCALL code to INT 80 code: if we fail to retrieve arg6, we return EFAULT. Before this patch, in this case we don't clear pt_regs->r8..r11. This patch fixes this. The resulting code is smaller and simpler. While at it, remove incorrect comment about syscall dispatching CALL insn: it does not use RIP-relative addressing form (the comment was meant to be "TODO: make this rip-relative", and morphed since then, dropping "TODO").

The 'system_call' entry points differ starkly between native 32-bit and 64-bit kernels: on 32-bit kernels it defines the INT 0x80 entry point, while on 64-bit it's the SYSCALL entry point. This is pretty confusing when looking at generic code, and it also obscures the nature of the entry point at the assembly level. So unangle this by splitting the name into its two uses: system_call (32) -> entry_INT80_32 system_call (64) -> entry_SYSCALL_64 As per the generic naming scheme for x86 system call entry points: entry_MNEMONIC_qualifier where 'qualifier' is one of _32, _64 or _compat.

This header containing all MSRs and respective bit definitions got exported to userspace in conjunction with the big UAPI shuffle. But, it doesn't belong in the UAPI headers because userspace can do its own MSR defines and exporting them from the kernel blocks us from doing cleanups/renames in that header. Which is ridiculous - it is not kernel's job to export such a header and keep MSRs list and their names stable. Signed-off-by:

Add the necessary changes to do_machine_check() to be able to process MCEs signaled as local MCEs. Typically, only recoverable errors (SRAR type) will be Signaled as LMCE. The architecture does not restrict to only those errors, however. When errors are signaled as LMCE, there is no need for the MCE handler to perform rendezvous with other logical processors unlike earlier processors that would broadcast machine check errors.

Really swap arguments #4 and #5 in stub32_clone instead of "optimizing" it into a move. Yes, tls_val is currently unused. Yes, on some CPUs XCHG is a little bit more expensive than MOV. But a cycle or two on an expensive syscall like clone() is way below noise floor, and this optimization is simply not worth the obfuscation of logic. [ There's also ongoing work on the clone() ABI by Josh Triplett that will depend on this change later on. ] Signed-off-by:

SYSENTER and SYSCALL 32-bit entry points differ in handling of arg2 and arg6. SYSENTER: * ecx arg2 * ebp user stack * 0(%ebp) arg6 SYSCALL: * ebp arg2 * esp user stack * 0(%esp) arg6 Sysenter code loads 0(%ebp) to %ebp right away. (This destroys %ebp. It means we do not preserve it on return. It's not causing problems since userspace VDSO code does not depend on it, and SYSENTER insn can't be sanely used outside of VDSO). Syscall code loads 0(%ebp) to %r9. This allows to eliminate one MOV insn (r9 is a register where arg6 should be for 64-bit ABI), but on audit/ptrace code paths this requires juggling of r9 and ebp: (1) ptrace expects arg6 to be in pt_regs->bp; (2) r9 is callee-clobbered register and needs to be saved/restored around calls to C functions. This patch changes syscall code to load 0(%ebp) to %ebp, making it more similar to sysenter code. It's a bit smaller: text data bss dec hex filename 1407 0 0 1407 57f ia32entry.o.before 1391 0 0 1391 56f ia32entry.o To preserve ABI compat, we restore ebp on exit. Run-tested. Signed-off-by:

32-bit syscall entry points do not save the complete pt_regs struct, they leave some fields uninitialized. However, they must be careful to not leak uninitialized data in pt_regs->r8..r11 to ptrace users. CLEAR_RREGS macro is used to zero these fields out when needed. However, in the int80 code path this zeroing is unconditional. This patch simplifies it by storing zeroes there right away, when pt_regs is constructed on stack. This uses shorter instructions: text data bss dec hex filename 1423 0 0 1423 58f ia32entry.o.before 1407 0 0 1407 57f ia32entry.o Compile-tested. Signed-off-by:

The wrmsrl_safe macro performs invalid shifts if the value argument is 32 bits. This makes it unnecessarily awkward to write code that puts an unsigned long into an MSR. Convert it to a real inline function. For inspiration, see: 7c74d5b7 ("x86/asm/entry/64: Fix MSR_IA32_SYSENTER_CS MSR value"). Signed-off-by:

These are all calling x86 entry code functions, so move them close to other entry code. Change lib-y to obj-y: there's no real difference between the two as we don't really drop any of them during the linking stage, and obj-y is the more common approach for core kernel object code.

Peter Zijstra noticed that in arch/x86/Kconfig there are a lot of X86_{32,64} clauses in the X86 symbol, plus there are a number of similar selects in the X86_32 and X86_64 config definitions as well - which all overlap in an inconsistent mess. So: - move all select's from X86_32 and X86_64 to the X64 config option - sort their names, so that duplications are easier to spot - align their if clauses, so that they are easier to identify at a glance - and so that weirdnesses stand out more No change in functionality: 105 insertions(+) 105 deletions(-) Originally-from: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: H.

So the dwarf2 annotations in low level assembly code have become an increasing hindrance: unreadable, messy macros mixed into some of the most security sensitive code paths of the Linux kernel. These debug info annotations don't even buy the upstream kernel anything: dwarf driven stack unwinding has caused problems in the past so it's out of tree, and the upstream kernel only uses the much more robust framepointers based stack unwinding method. In addition to that there's a steady, slow bitrot going on with these annotations, requiring frequent fixups. There's no tooling and no functionality upstream that keeps it correct. So burn down the sick forest, allowing new, healthier growth: 27 files changed, 350 insertions(+), 1101 deletions(-) Someone who has the willingness and time to do this properly can attempt to reintroduce dwarf debuginfo in x86 assembly code plus dwarf unwinding from first principles, with the following conditions: - it should be maximally readable, and maximally low-key to 'ordinary' code reading and maintenance. - find a build time method to insert dwarf annotations automatically in the most common cases, for pop/push instructions that manipulate the stack pointer. This could be done for example via a preprocessing step that just looks for common patterns - plus special annotations for the few cases where we want to depart from the default. We have hundreds of CFI annotations, so automating most of that makes sense. - it should come with build tooling checks that ensure that CFI annotations are sensible. We've seen such efforts from the framepointer side, and there's no reason it couldn't be done on the dwarf side.

The PHY address selected by the driver running the PHY to MAC connection decides what PHY address GET ethtool operations return information from. 3) Fix handling of sequence number bits for encryption IV generation in ESP driver, from Herbert Xu. 4) UDP can return -EAGAIN when we hit a bad checksum on receive, even when there are other packets in the receive queue which is wrong. Just respect the error returned from the generic socket recv datagram helper. From Eric Dumazet. 5) Fix BNA driver firmware loading on big-endian systems, from Ivan Vecera. 6) Fix regression in that we were inheriting the congestion control of the listening socket for new connections, the intended behavior always was to use the default in this case.
