x86/bugs: Fix the SRSO mitigation on Zen3/4 The original version of the mitigation would patch in the calls to the untraining routines directly. That is, the alternative() in UNTRAIN_RET will patch in the CALL to srso_alias_untrain_ret() directly. However, even if commit e7c25c441e9e ("x86/cpu: Cleanup the untrain mess") meant well in trying to clean up the situation, due to micro- architectural reasons, the untraining routine srso_alias_untrain_ret() must be the target of a CALL instruction and not of a JMP instruction as it is done now. Reshuffle the alternative macros to accomplish that.

x86/retpoline: Simplify retpolines Due to: c9c324dc22aa ("objtool: Support stack layout changes in alternatives") it is now possible to simplify the retpolines. Currently our retpolines consist of 2 symbols: - __x86_indirect_thunk_\reg: the compiler target - __x86_retpoline_\reg: the actual retpoline. Both are consecutive in code and aligned such that for any one register they both live in the same cacheline: 0000000000000000 <__x86_indirect_thunk_rax>: 0: ff e0 jmpq *%rax 2: 90 nop 3: 90 nop 4: 90 nop 0000000000000005 <__x86_retpoline_rax>: 5: e8 07 00 00 00 callq 11 <__x86_retpoline_rax+0xc> a: f3 90 pause c: 0f ae e8 lfence f: eb f9 jmp a <__x86_retpoline_rax+0x5> 11: 48 89 04 24 mov %rax,(%rsp) 15: c3 retq 16: 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 nopw %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1) The thunk is an alternative_2, where one option is a JMP to the retpoline. This was done so that objtool didn't need to deal with alternatives with stack ops. But that problem has been solved, so now it is possible to fold the entire retpoline into the alternative to simplify and consolidate unused bytes: 0000000000000000 <__x86_indirect_thunk_rax>: 0: ff e0 jmpq *%rax 2: 90 nop 3: 90 nop 4: 90 nop 5: 90 nop 6: 90 nop 7: 90 nop 8: 90 nop 9: 90 nop a: 90 nop b: 90 nop c: 90 nop d: 90 nop e: 90 nop f: 90 nop 10: 90 nop 11: 66 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 data16 nopw %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 1c: 0f 1f 40 00 nopl 0x0(%rax) Notice that since the longest alternative sequence is now: 0: e8 07 00 00 00 callq c <.altinstr_replacement+0xc> 5: f3 90 pause 7: 0f ae e8 lfence a: eb f9 jmp 5 <.altinstr_replacement+0x5> c: 48 89 04 24 mov %rax,(%rsp) 10: c3 retq 17 bytes, we have 15 bytes NOP at the end of our 32 byte slot.

x86/retpoline: Fix retpoline unwind Currently objtool cannot understand retpolines, and thus cannot generate ORC unwind information for them. This means that we cannot unwind from the middle of a retpoline. The recent ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL and UNWIND_HINT_RET_OFFSET support in objtool enables it to understand the basic retpoline construct. A further problem is that the ORC unwind information is alternative invariant; IOW. every alternative should have the same ORC, retpolines obviously violate this. This means we need to out-of-line them. Since all GCC generated code already uses out-of-line retpolines, this should not affect performance much, if anything. This will enable objtool to generate valid ORC data for the out-of-line copies, which means we can correctly and reliably unwind through a retpoline.

Revert "x86/retpoline: Simplify vmexit_fill_RSB()" This reverts commit 1dde7415e99933bb7293d6b2843752cbdb43ec11. By putting the RSB filling out of line and calling it, we waste one RSB slot for returning from the function itself, which means one fewer actual function call we can make if we're doing the Skylake abomination of call-depth counting. It also changed the number of RSB stuffings we do on vmexit from 32, which was correct, to 16. Let's just stop with the bikeshedding; it didn't actually *fix* anything anyway.

x86/retpoline: Add initial retpoline support Enable the use of -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern in newer GCC, and provide the corresponding thunks. Provide assembler macros for invoking the thunks in the same way that GCC does, from native and inline assembler. This adds X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE and sets it by default on all CPUs. In some circumstances, IBRS microcode features may be used instead, and the retpoline can be disabled. On AMD CPUs if lfence is serialising, the retpoline can be dramatically simplified to a simple "lfence; jmp *\reg". A future patch, after it has been verified that lfence really is serialising in all circumstances, can enable this by setting the X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE_AMD feature bit in addition to X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE. Do not align the retpoline in the altinstr section, because there is no guarantee that it stays aligned when it's copied over the oldinstr during alternative patching.

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.

Replace <asm/uaccess.h> with <linux/uaccess.h> globally This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*<asm/uaccess.h>' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include <linux/uaccess.h>!" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

x86/kbuild: enable modversions for symbols exported from asm Commit 4efca4ed ("kbuild: modversions for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") adds modversion support for symbols exported from asm files. Architectures must include C-style declarations for those symbols in asm/asm-prototypes.h in order for them to be versioned. Add these declarations for x86, and an architecture-independent file that can be used for common symbols. With f27c2f6 reverting 8ab2ae6 ("default exported asm symbols to zero") we produce a scary warning on x86, this commit fixes that.
