MIPS: math-emu: Write-protect delay slot emulation pages

Mapping the delay slot emulation page as both writeable & executable
presents a security risk, in that if an exploit can write to & jump into
the page then it can be used as an easy way to execute arbitrary code.

Prevent this by mapping the page read-only for userland, and using
access_process_vm() with the FOLL_FORCE flag to write to it from
mips_dsemul().

This will likely be less efficient due to copy_to_user_page() performing
cache maintenance on a whole page, rather than a single line as in the
previous use of flush_cache_sigtramp(). However this delay slot
emulation code ought not to be running in any performance critical paths
anyway so this isn't really a problem, and we can probably do better in
copy_to_user_page() anyway in future.

A major advantage of this approach is that the fix is small & simple to
backport to stable kernels.

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.

MIPS: Fix delay slot emulation count in debugfs

Commit 432c6bacbd0c ("MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot
instructions") accidentally removed use of the MIPS_FPU_EMU_INC_STATS
macro from do_dsemulret, leading to the ds_emul file in debugfs always
returning zero even though we perform delay slot emulations.

Fix this by re-adding the use of the MIPS_FPU_EMU_INC_STATS macro.

# 432c6bac 08-Jul-2016 Paul Burton <paulburton@kernel.org>

MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions

In some cases the kernel needs to execute an instruction from the delay
slot of an emulated branch instruction. These cases include:

- Emulated floating point branch instructions (bc1[ft]l?) for systems
which don't include an FPU, or upon which the kernel is run with the
"nofpu" parameter.

- MIPSr6 systems running binaries targeting older revisions of the
architecture, which may include branch instructions whose encodings
are no longer valid in MIPSr6.

Executing instructions from such delay slots is done by writing the
instruction to memory followed by a trap, as part of an "emuframe", and
executing it. This avoids the requirement of an emulator for the entire
MIPS instruction set. Prior to this patch such emuframes are written to
the user stack and executed from there.

This patch moves FP branch delay emuframes off of the user stack and
into a per-mm page. Allocating a page per-mm leaves userland with access
to only what it had access to previously, and compared to other
solutions is relatively simple.

When a thread requires a delay slot emulation, it is allocated a frame.
A thread may only have one frame allocated at any one time, since it may
only ever be executing one instruction at any one time. In order to
ensure that we can free up allocated frame later, its index is recorded
in struct thread_struct. In the typical case, after executing the delay
slot instruction we'll execute a break instruction with the BRK_MEMU
code. This traps back to the kernel & leads to a call to do_dsemulret
which frees the allocated frame & moves the user PC back to the
instruction that would have executed following the emulated branch.
In some cases the delay slot instruction may be invalid, such as a
branch, or may trigger an exception. In these cases the BRK_MEMU break
instruction will not be hit. In order to ensure that frames are freed
this patch introduces dsemul_thread_cleanup() and calls it to free any
allocated frame upon thread exit. If the instruction generated an
exception & leads to a signal being delivered to the thread, or indeed
if a signal simply happens to be delivered to the thread whilst it is
executing from the struct emuframe, then we need to take care to exit
the frame appropriately. This is done by either rolling back the user PC
to the branch or advancing it to the continuation PC prior to signal
delivery, using dsemul_thread_rollback(). If this were not done then a
sigreturn would return to the struct emuframe, and if that frame had
meanwhile been used in response to an emulated branch instruction within
the signal handler then we would execute the wrong user code.

Whilst a user could theoretically place something like a compact branch
to self in a delay slot and cause their thread to become stuck in an
infinite loop with the frame never being deallocated, this would:

- Only affect the users single process.

- Be architecturally invalid since there would be a branch in the
delay slot, which is forbidden.

- Be extremely unlikely to happen by mistake, and provide a program
with no more ability to harm the system than a simple infinite loop
would.

If a thread requires a delay slot emulation & no frame is available to
it (ie. the process has enough other threads that all frames are
currently in use) then the thread joins a waitqueue. It will sleep until
a frame is freed by another thread in the process.

Since we now know whether a thread has an allocated frame due to our
tracking of its index, the cookie field of struct emuframe is removed as
we can be more certain whether we have a valid frame. Since a thread may
only ever have a single frame at any given time, the epc field of struct
emuframe is also removed & the PC to continue from is instead stored in
struct thread_struct. Together these changes simplify & shrink struct
emuframe somewhat, allowing twice as many frames to fit into the page
allocated for them.

The primary benefit of this patch is that we are now free to mark the
user stack non-executable where that is possible.

MIPS: math-emu: Make microMIPS branch delay slot emulation work

Complement commit 102cedc32a6e ("MIPS: microMIPS: Floating point
support.") which introduced microMIPS FPU emulation, but did not adjust
the encoding of the BREAK instruction used to terminate the branch delay
slot emulation frame. Consequently the execution of any such frame is
indeterminate and, depending on CPU configuration, will result in random
code execution or an offending program being terminated with SIGILL.

This is because the regular MIPS BREAK instruction is encoded with the 0
major and the 0xd minor opcode, however in the microMIPS instruction set
this major/minor opcode pair denotes an encoding reserved for the DSP
ASE. Instead the microMIPS BREAK instruction is encoded with the 0
major and the 0x7 minor opcode.

Use the correct BREAK encoding for microMIPS FPU emulation then.

MIPS: math-emu: Correctly handle NOP emulation

Fix an issue introduced with commit 9ab4471c9f1b ("MIPS: math-emu:
Correct delay-slot exception propagation") where the emulation of a NOP
instruction signals the need to terminate the emulation loop. This in
turn, if the PC has not changed from the entry to the loop, will cause
the kernel to terminate the program with SIGILL.

Consider this program:

static double div(double d)
{
do
d /= 2.0;
while (d > .5);
return d;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
return div(argc);
}

which gets compiled to the following binary code:

00400490 <main>:
400490: 44840000 mtc1 a0,$f0
400494: 3c020040 lui v0,0x40
400498: d44207f8 ldc1 $f2,2040(v0)
40049c: 46800021 cvt.d.w $f0,$f0
4004a0: 46220002 mul.d $f0,$f0,$f2
4004a4: 4620103c c.lt.d $f2,$f0
4004a8: 4501fffd bc1t 4004a0 <main+0x10>
4004ac: 00000000 nop
4004b0: 4620000d trunc.w.d $f0,$f0
4004b4: 03e00008 jr ra
4004b8: 44020000 mfc1 v0,$f0
4004bc: 00000000 nop

Where the FPU emulator is used, depending on the number of command-line
arguments this code will either run to completion or terminate with
SIGILL.

If no arguments are specified, then BC1T will not be taken, NOP will not
be emulated and code will complete successfully.

If one argument is specified, then BC1T will be taken once and NOP will
be emulated. At this point the entry PC value will be 0x400498 and the
new PC value, set by `mips_dsemul' will be 0x4004a0, the target of BC1T.
The emulation loop will terminate, but SIGILL will not be issued,
because the PC has changed. The FPU emulator will be entered again and
on the second execution BC1T will not be taken, NOP will not be emulated
and code will complete successfully.

If two or more arguments are specified, then the first execution of BC1T
will proceed as above. Upon reentering the FPU emulator the emulation
loop will continue to BC1T, at which point the branch will be taken and
NOP emulated again. At this point however the entry PC value will be
0x4004a0, the same as the target of BC1T. This will make the emulator
conclude that execution has not advanced and therefore an unsupported
FPU instruction has been encountered, and SIGILL will be sent to the
process.

Fix the problem by extending the internal API of `mips_dsemul', making
it return -1 if no delay slot emulation frame has been made, the
instruction has been handled and execution of the emulation loop needs
to continue as if nothing happened. Remove code from `mips_dsemul' to
reproduce steps made by the emulation loop at the conclusion of each
iteration, as those will be reached normally now. Adjust call sites
accordingly. Document the API.

MIPS: math-emu: Fix delay-slot emulation cache incoherency

Correct a cache coherency regression introduced with be1664c4 [Another
round of fixes for the fp emulator.] for the emulation frame used in
delay-slot emulation.

Two instructions are copied into the frame and as from the commit
referred a cache synchronisation call is made for the second instruction
aka `badinst' of the two only. The `flush_cache_sigtramp' interface is
reused that guarantees that synchronisation will be made for 8 bytes or
2 instructions starting from the address requested, although if cache
lines are wider then a larger area may be synchronised.

Change the call to point to the first of the two instructions aka `emul'
instead, removing unpredictable behaviour resulting from cache
incoherency.

This bug only ever manifested itself on systems implementing 4-byte
cache lines, typically MIPS I systems, causing all kinds of weirdness.
This is because the sequence of two instructions starting from `emul' is
8-byte aligned and for 8-byte or wider cache lines the line synchronised
will span both, so the vast majority of systems have escaped unharmed.

MIPS: Collect FPU emulator statistics per-CPU.

On SMP systems, the collection of statistics can cause cache line
bouncing in the lines associated with the counters. Also there are
races incrementing the counters on multiple CPUs.

To fix both problems, we collect the statistics in per-CPU variables,
and add them up in the debugfs read operation.

As a test I ran the LTP float_bessel test on a 12 CPU Octeon system.

Without CONFIG_DEBUG_FS : 2602 seconds.
With CONFIG_DEBUG_FS: 2640 seconds.
With non-cpu-local atomic statistics: 14569 seconds.

MIPS: Switch FPU emulator trap to BREAK instruction.

Arguably using the address error handler has always been ugly. But with
processors that handle unaligned loads and stores in hardware the
current mechanism ceases to work so switch it to a BREAK instruction and
allocate break code 514 to the FPU emulator.

Yoichi Yuasa provided a build fix for CONFIG_BUG=n.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
