arm64: extable: add new extable type EX_TYPE_KACCESS_ERR_ZERO support

Currently, The extable type EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO is used by
__get/put_kernel_nofault(), but those helpers are not uaccess type, so we
add a new extable type EX_TYPE_KACCESS_ERR_ZERO which can be used by
__get/put_kernel_no_fault().

This is also to prepare for distinguishing the two types in machine check
safe process.

arm64: extable: fix load_unaligned_zeropad() reg indices

In ex_handler_load_unaligned_zeropad() we erroneously extract the data and
addr register indices from ex->type rather than ex->data. As ex->type will
contain EX_TYPE_LOAD_UNALIGNED_ZEROPAD (i.e. 4):
* We'll always treat X0 as the address register, since EX_DATA_REG_ADDR is
extracted from bits [9:5]. Thus, we may attempt to dereference an
arbitrary address as X0 may hold an arbitrary value.
* We'll always treat X4 as the data register, since EX_DATA_REG_DATA is
extracted from bits [4:0]. Thus we will corrupt X4 and cause arbitrary
behaviour within load_unaligned_zeropad() and its caller.

Fix this by extracting both values from ex->data as originally intended.

On an MTE-enabled QEMU image we are hitting the following crash:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000

arm64: extable: add load_unaligned_zeropad() handler

For inline assembly, we place exception fixups out-of-line in the
`.fixup` section such that these are out of the way of the fast path.
This has a few drawbacks:

* Since the fixup code is anonymous, backtraces will symbolize fixups as
offsets from the nearest prior symbol, currently
`__entry_tramp_text_end`. This is confusing, and painful to debug
without access to the relevant vmlinux.

* Since the exception handler adjusts the PC to execute the fixup, and
the fixup uses a direct branch back into the function it fixes,
backtraces of fixups miss the original function. This is confusing,
and violates requirements for RELIABLE_STACKTRACE (and therefore
LIVEPATCH).

* Inline assembly and associated fixups are generated from templates,
and we have many copies of logically identical fixups which only
differ in which specific registers are written to and which address is
branched to at the end of the fixup. This is potentially wasteful of
I-cache resources, and makes it hard to add additional logic to fixups
without significant bloat.

* In the case of load_unaligned_zeropad(), the logic in the fixup
requires a temporary register that we must allocate even in the
fast-path where it will not be used.

This patch address all four concerns for load_unaligned_zeropad() fixups
by adding a dedicated exception handler which performs the fixup logic
in exception context and subsequent returns back after the faulting
instruction. For the moment, the fixup logic is identical to the old
assembly fixup logic, but in future we could enhance this by taking the
ESR and FAR into account to constrain the faults we try to fix up, or to
specialize fixups for MTE tag check faults.

Other than backtracing, there should be no functional change as a result
of this patch.

arm64: extable: add a dedicated uaccess handler

For inline assembly, we place exception fixups out-of-line in the

This patch address all three concerns for inline uaccess fixups by
adding a dedicated exception handler which updates registers in
exception context and subsequent returns back into the function which
faulted, removing the need for fixups specialized to each faulting
instruction.

Other than backtracing, there should be no functional change as a result

arm64: extable: add `type` and `data` fields

Subsequent patches will add specialized handlers for fixups, in addition
to the simple PC fixup and BPF handlers we have today. In preparation,
this patch adds a new `type` field to struct exception_table_entry, and
uses this to distinguish the fixup and BPF cases. A `data` field is also
added so that subsequent patches can associate data specific to each
exception site (e.g. register numbers).

Handlers are named ex_handler_*() for consistency, following the exmaple
of x86. At the same time, get_ex_fixup() is split out into a helper so
that it can be used by other ex_handler_*() functions ins subsequent
patches.

This patch will increase the size of the exception tables, which will be
remedied by subsequent patches removing redundant fixup code. There
should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Since each entry is now 12 bytes in size, we must reduce the alignment
of each entry from `.align 3` (i.e. 8 bytes) to `.align 2` (i.e. 4
bytes), which is the natrual alignment of the `insn` and `fixup` fields.
The current 8-byte alignment is a holdover from when the `insn` and
`fixup` fields was 8 bytes, and while not harmful has not been necessary
since commit:

6c94f27ac847ff8e ("arm64: switch to relative exception tables")

Similarly, RO_EXCEPTION_TABLE_ALIGN is dropped to 4 bytes.

Concurrently with this patch, x86's exception table entry format is
being updated (similarly to a 12-byte format, with 32-bytes of absolute
data). Once both have been merged it should be possible to unify the
sorttable logic for the two.

arm64: extable: use `ex` for `exception_table_entry`

Subsequent patches will extend `struct exception_table_entry` with more
fields, and the distinction between the entry and its `fixup` field will
become more important.

For clarity, let's consistently use `ex` to refer to refer to an entire
entry. In subsequent patches we'll use `fixup` to refer to the fixup
field specifically. This matches the naming convention used today in
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c.

arm64: extable: make fixup_exception() return bool

The return values of fixup_exception() and arm64_bpf_fixup_exception()
represent a boolean condition rather than an error code, so for clarity
it would be better to return `bool` rather than `int`.

This patch adjusts the code accordingly. While we're modifying the
prototype, we also remove the unnecessary `extern` keyword, so that this
won't look out of place when we make subsequent additions to the header.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

arm64: Improve diagnostics when trapping BRK with FAULT_BRK_IMM

When generating instructions at runtime, for example due to kernel text
patching or the BPF JIT, we can emit a trapping BRK instruction if we
are asked to encode an invalid instruction such as an out-of-range]
branch. This is indicative of a bug in the caller, and will result in a
crash on executing the generated code. Unfortunately, the message from
the crash is really unhelpful, and mumbles something about ptrace:

| Unexpected kernel BRK exception at EL1
| Internal error: ptrace BRK handler: f2000100 [#1] SMP

We can do better than this. Install a break handler for FAULT_BRK_IMM,
which is the immediate used to encode the "I've been asked to generate
an invalid instruction" error, and triage the faulting PC to determine
whether or not the failure occurred in the BPF JIT.

bpf, arm64: Add BPF exception tables

When a tracing BPF program attempts to read memory without using the
bpf_probe_read() helper, the verifier marks the load instruction with
the BPF_PROBE_MEM flag. Since the arm64 JIT does not currently recognize
this flag it falls back to the interpreter.

Add support for BPF_PROBE_MEM, by appending an exception table to the
BPF program. If the load instruction causes a data abort, the fixup
infrastructure finds the exception table and fixes up the fault, by
clearing the destination register and jumping over the faulting
instruction.

To keep the compact exception table entry format, inspect the pc in
fixup_exception(). A more generic solution would add a "handler" field
to the table entry, like on x86 and s390.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

arm64: switch to relative exception tables

Instead of using absolute addresses for both the exception location
and the fixup, use offsets relative to the exception table entry values.
Not only does this cut the size of the exception table in half, it is
also a prerequisite for KASLR, since absolute exception table entries
are subject to dynamic relocation, which is incompatible with the sorting
of the exception table that occurs at build time.

This patch also introduces the _ASM_EXTABLE preprocessor macro (which
exists on x86 as well) and its _asm_extable assembly counterpart, as
shorthands to emit exception table entries.
