MFC r258135: x86: Allow users to change PSL_RF via ptrace(PT_SETREGS...)

Debuggers may need to change PSL_RF. Note that tf_eflags is already stored
in the signal context during signal handling and PSL_RF previously could
be modified via sigreturn, so this change should not provide any new
ability to userspace.

The _MC_HASFPXSTATE and _MC_IA32_HASFPXSTATE flags have the same bit

Retire write-only PCB_GS32BIT pcb flag on amd64.


# 230426 21-Jan-2012 kib

Add support for the extended FPU states on amd64, both for native
64bit and 32bit ABIs. As a side-effect, it enables AVX on capable
CPUs.

In particular:

- Query the CPU support for XSAVE, list of the supported extensions
and the required size of FPU save area. The hw.use_xsave tunable is
provided for disabling XSAVE, and hw.xsave_mask may be used to
select the enabled extensions.

- Remove the FPU save area from PCB and dynamically allocate the
(run-time sized) user save area on the top of the kernel stack,
right above the PCB. Reorganize the thread0 PCB initialization to
postpone it after BSP is queried for save area size.

- The dumppcb, stoppcbs and susppcbs now do not carry the FPU state as
well. FPU state is only useful for suspend, where it is saved in
dynamically allocated suspfpusave area.

- Use XSAVE and XRSTOR to save/restore FPU state, if supported and
enabled.

- Define new mcontext_t flag _MC_HASFPXSTATE, indicating that
mcontext_t has a valid pointer to out-of-struct extended FPU
state. Signal handlers are supplied with stack-allocated fpu
state. The sigreturn(2) and setcontext(2) syscall honour the flag,
allowing the signal handlers to inspect and manipilate extended
state in the interrupted context.

- The getcontext(2) never returns extended state, since there is no
place in the fixed-sized mcontext_t to place variable-sized save
area. And, since mcontext_t is embedded into ucontext_t, makes it
impossible to fix in a reasonable way. Instead of extending
getcontext(2) syscall, provide a sysarch(2) facility to query
extended FPU state.

- Add ptrace(2) support for getting and setting extended state; while
there, implement missed PT_I386_{GET,SET}XMMREGS for 32bit binaries.

- Change fpu_kern KPI to not expose struct fpu_kern_ctx layout to
consumers, making it opaque. Internally, struct fpu_kern_ctx now
contains a space for the extended state. Convert in-kernel consumers
of fpu_kern KPI both on i386 and amd64.

First version of the support for AVX was submitted by Tim Bird
<tim.bird am sony com> on behalf of Sony. This version was written
from scratch.

# 220238 01-Apr-2011 kib

Add support for executing the FreeBSD 1/i386 a.out binaries on amd64.

In particular:
- implement compat shims for old stat(2) variants and ogetdirentries(2);
- implement delivery of signals with ancient stack frame layout and
corresponding sigreturn(2);
- implement old getpagesize(2);
- provide a user-mode trampoline and LDT call gate for lcall $7,$0;
- port a.out image activator and connect it to the build as a module
on amd64.

The changes are hidden under COMPAT_43.

Create shared (readonly) page. Each ABI may specify the use of page by
setting SV_SHP flag and providing pointer to the vm object and mapping
address. Provide simple allocator to carve space in the page, tailored
to put the code with alignment restrictions.

Enable shared page use for amd64, both native and 32bit FreeBSD
binaries. Page is private mapped at the top of the user address
space, moving a start of the stack one page down. Move signal
trampoline code from the top of the stack to the shared page.

# 216634 21-Dec-2010 jkim

Improve PCB flags handling and make it more robust. Add two new functions
for manipulating pcb_flags. These inline functions are very similar to
atomic_set_char(9) and atomic_clear_char(9) but without unnecessary LOCK
prefix for SMP. Add comments about the rationale[1]. Use these functions
wherever possible. Although there are some places where it is not strictly
necessary (e.g., a PCB is copied to create a new PCB), it is done across
the board for sake of consistency. Turn pcb_full_iret into a PCB flag as
it is safe now. Move rarely used fields before pcb_flags and reduce size
of pcb_flags to one byte. Fix some style(9) nits in pcb.h while I am in
the neighborhood.

For {npx,fpu}{get,set}regs(), always use pcb->pcb_user_save for FPU

Restore the segment registers and segment base MSRs for amd64 syscall
return path only when neither thread was context switched while
executing syscall code nor syscall explicitely modified LDT or MSRs.

Save segment registers in trap handlers before interrupts are enabled,
to not allow context switches to happen before registers are saved.
Use separated byte in pcb for indication of fast/full return, since
pcb_flags are not synchronized with context switches.

A better fix for handling different FPU initial control words for different
ABIs:
- Store the FPU initial control word in the pcb for each thread.
- When first using the FPU, load the initial control word after restoring
the clean state if it is not the standard control word.
- Provide a correct control word for Linux/i386 binaries under
FreeBSD/amd64.
- Adjust the control word returned for fpugetregs()/npxgetregs() when a
thread hasn't used the FPU yet to reflect the real initial control
word for the current ABI.
- The Linux/i386 ABI for FreeBSD/i386 now properly sets the right control
word instead of trashing whatever the current state of the FPU is.

- Reread the fs and gs bases from the msr unconditionally, not believing

Both problems resulted in the wrong fs base, causing wrong tls pointer

# 177145 13-Mar-2008 kib

Since version 4.3, gcc changed its behaviour concerning the i386/amd64
ABI and the direction flag, that is it now assumes that the direction
flag is cleared at the entry of a function and it doesn't clear once
more if needed. This new behaviour conforms to the i386/amd64 ABI.

Modify the signal handler frame setup code to clear the DF {e,r}flags
bit on the amd64/i386 for the signal handlers.

jhb@ noted that it might break old apps if they assumed DF == 1 would be
preserved in the signal handlers, but that such apps should be rare and
that older versions of gcc would not generate such apps.

1. Change prototype of trapsignal and sendsig to use ksiginfo_t *, most
changes in MD code are trivial, before this change, trapsignal and
sendsig use discrete parameters, now they uses member fields of
ksiginfo_t structure. For sendsig, this change allows us to pass
POSIX realtime signal value to user code.

2. Remove cpu_thread_siginfo, it is no longer needed because we now always
generate ksiginfo_t data and feed it to libpthread.

3. Add p_sigqueue to proc structure to hold shared signals which were
blocked by all threads in the proc.

4. Add td_sigqueue to thread structure to hold all signals delivered to
thread.

5. i386 and amd64 now return POSIX standard si_code, other arches will
be fixed.

6. In this sigqueue implementation, pending signal set is kept as before,
an extra siginfo list holds additional siginfo_t data for signals.
kernel code uses psignal() still behavior as before, it won't be failed
even under memory pressure, only exception is when deleting a signal,
we should call sigqueue_delete to remove signal from sigqueue but
not SIGDELSET. Current there is no kernel code will deliver a signal
with additional data, so kernel should be as stable as before,
a ksiginfo can carry more information, for example, allow signal to
be delivered but throw away siginfo data if memory is not enough.
SIGKILL and SIGSTOP have fast path in sigqueue_add, because they can
not be caught or masked.
The sigqueue() syscall allows user code to queue a signal to target
process, if resource is unavailable, EAGAIN will be returned as
specification said.
Just before thread exits, signal queue memory will be freed by
sigqueue_flush.
Current, all signals are allowed to be queued, not only realtime signals.

# 114987 14-May-2003 peter

Add BASIC i386 binary support for the amd64 kernel. This is largely
stolen from the ia64/ia32 code (indeed there was a repocopy), but I've
redone the MD parts and added and fixed a few essential syscalls. It
is sufficient to run i386 binaries like /bin/ls, /usr/bin/id (dynamic)
and p4. The ia64 code has not implemented signal delivery, so I had
to do that.

Before you say it, yes, this does need to go in a common place. But
we're in a freeze at the moment and I didn't want to risk breaking ia64.
I will sort this out after the freeze so that the common code is in a
common place.

On the AMD64 side, this required adding segment selector context switch
support and some other support infrastructure. The %fs/%gs etc code
is hairy because loading %gs will clobber the kernel's current MSR_GSBASE
setting. The segment selectors are not used by the kernel, so they're only
changed at context switch time or when changing modes. This still needs
to be optimized.
