The do_brk() and vm_brk() return value was "unsigned long" and returned
the starting address on success, and an error value on failure. The
reasons are entirely historical, and go back to it basically behaving
like the mmap() interface does.
However, nobody actually wanted that interface, and it causes totally
pointless IS_ERR_VALUE() confusion.
What every single caller actually wants is just the simpler integer
return of zero for success and negative error number on failure.
So just convert to that much clearer and more common calling convention,
and get rid of all the IS_ERR_VALUE() uses wrt vm_brk().

vm_brk is allowed to fail but load_aout_binary simply ignores the error
and happily continues. I haven't noticed any problem from that in real
life but later patches will make the failure more likely because vm_brk
will become killable (resp. mmap_sem for write waiting will become
killable) so we should be more careful now.
The error handling should be quite straightforward because there are
calls to vm_mmap which check the error properly already. The only
notable exception is set_brk which is called after beyond_if label. But
nothing indicates that we cannot move it above set_binfmt as the two do
not depend on each other and fail before we do set_binfmt and alter
reference counting.

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
collected into the 'x86/core' topic.
The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
end.
The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
have fewer dependencies).
The main changes in this cycle were:
* x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
Gleixner)
- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)
- Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/platform changes:
- Intel Atom SoC updates
... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
shortlog and the Git log for details"
* 'x86-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (222 commits)

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.

Standardize the naming of save_xstate_sig() by renaming it to
copy_fpstate_to_sigframe(): this tells us at a glance that
the function copies an FPU fpstate to a signal frame.
This naming also follows the naming of copy_fpregs_to_fpstate().
Don't put 'xstate' into the name: since this is a generic name,
it's expected that the function is able to handle xstate frames
as well, beyond legacy frames.
xstate used to be the odd case in the x86 FPU code - now it's the
common case.

Introduce a simple fpu->fpstate_active flag in the fpu context data structure
and use that instead of PF_USED_MATH in task->flags.
Testing for this flag byte should be slightly more efficient than
testing a bit in a bitmask, but the main advantage is that most
FPU functions can now be performed on a 'struct fpu' alone, they
don't need access to 'struct task_struct' anymore.
There's a slight linecount increase, mostly due to the 'fpu' local
variables and due to extra comments. The local variables will go away
once we move most of the FPU methods to pure 'struct fpu' parameters.

AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.
Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.
This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

pt_regs->ax is initially set to -ENOSYS, and on syscall exit,
it is updated with the actual return value. This simplified
the logic there.
This patch does the same for 32-bit syscall entry points.
The check for %rax being too big is moved to be just before
the call instruction which dispatches execution through the
syscall table.
There is no way to accidentally skip this check now by jumping
to a label after it. This allows us to remove redundant checks
after ptrace et al.
If %rax is too big, we just skip over the (call, write %rax to
pt_regs->ax) instruction pair. pt_regs->ax remains set to -ENOSYS,
and it gets returned to userspace.
Similar to 64-bit code, this eliminates the "ia32_badsys" code path.
Run-tested.

The 'pax' argument is unnecesary. Instead, store the RAX value
directly in regs.
This pattern goes all the way back to 2.1.106pre1, when restore_sigcontext()
was changed to return an error code instead of EAX directly:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/diff/arch/i386/kernel/signal.c?id=9a8f8b7ca3f319bd668298d447bdf32730e51174
In 2007 sigaltstack syscall support was added, where the return
value of restore_sigcontext() was changed to carry the memory-copying
failure code.
But instead of putting 'ax' into regs->ax directly, it was carried
in via a pointer and then returned, where the generic syscall return
code copied it to regs->ax.
So there was never any deeper reason for this suboptimal pattern, it
was simply never noticed after being introduced.

SYSEXIT is scary on 64-bit kernels -- SYSEXIT must be invoked
with usergs and IRQs on. That means that we rely on STI to
correctly mask interrupts for one instruction. This is okay by
itself, but the semantics with respect to NMIs are unclear.
Avoid the whole issue by using SYSRETL instead. For background,
Intel CPUs don't allow SYSCALL from compat mode, but they do
allow SYSRETL back to compat mode. Go figure.
To avoid doing too much at once, this doesn't revamp the calling
convention. We still return with EBP, EDX, and ECX on the user
stack.
Oddly this seems to be 30 cycles or so faster. Avoiding POPFQ
and STI will account for under half of that, I think, so my best
guess is that Intel just optimizes SYSRET much better than
SYSEXIT.

PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) was set up in a way where it points
five stack slots below the top of stack.
Presumably, it was done to avoid one "sub $5*8,%rsp"
in syscall/sysenter code paths, where iret frame needs to be
created by hand.
Ironically, none of them benefits from this optimization,
since all of them need to allocate additional data on stack
(struct pt_regs), so they still have to perform subtraction.
This patch eliminates KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET.
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) now points directly to top of stack.
pt_regs allocations are adjusted to allocate iret frame as well.
Hopefully we can merge it later with 32-bit specific
PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack) variable...
Net result in generated code is that constants in several insns
are changed.
This change is necessary for changing struct pt_regs creation
in SYSCALL64 code path from MOV to PUSH instructions.

Both the execve() and sigreturn() family of syscalls have the
ability to change registers in ways that may not be compatabile
with the syscall path they were called from.
In particular, SYSRET and SYSEXIT can't handle non-default %cs and %ss,
and some bits in eflags.
These syscalls have stubs that are hardcoded to jump to the IRET path,
and not return to the original syscall path.
The following commit:
76f5df43ca ("Always allocate a complete "struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack")
recently changed this for some 32-bit compat syscalls, but introduced a bug where
execve from a 32-bit program to a 64-bit program would fail because it still returned
via SYSRETL. This caused Wine to fail when built for both 32-bit and 64-bit.
This patch sets TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME for execve() and sigreturn() so
that the IRET path is always taken on exit to userspace.

Use of a small macro - one with conditional expansion - does
more harm than good. It obfuscates code, with minimal code
reuse.
For example, because of obfuscation it's not obvious that
in 'ia32_sysenter_target', we can optimize loading of r9 -
currently it is loaded with a detour through ebp.
This patch folds the IA32_ARG_FIXUP macro into its callers.

Moreover, they differ in 32- and 64-bit mode.
What is saved? What is not? Is rsp set? Are interrupts disabled?

The 64-bit entry code was using six stack slots less by not
saving/restoring registers which are callee-preserved according
to the C ABI, and was not allocating space for them.
Only when syscalls needed a complete "struct pt_regs" was
the complete area allocated and filled in.
As an additional twist, on interrupt entry a "slightly less
truncated pt_regs" trick is used, to make nested interrupt
stacks easier to unwind.
This proved to be a source of significant obfuscation and subtle
bugs. For example, 'stub_fork' had to pop the return address,
extend the struct, save registers, and push return address back.
Ugly. 'ia32_ptregs_common' pops return address and "returns" via
jmp insn, throwing a wrench into CPU return stack cache.
This patch changes the code to always allocate a complete
"struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack. The saving of registers
is still done lazily.
"Partial pt_regs" trick on interrupt stack is retained.
Macros which manipulate "struct pt_regs" on stack are reworked:
- ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK allocates the structure.
- SAVE_C_REGS saves to it those registers which are clobbered
by C code.
- SAVE_EXTRA_REGS saves to it all other registers.
- Corresponding RESTORE_* and REMOVE_PT_GPREGS_FROM_STACK macros
reverse it.
'ia32_ptregs_common', 'stub_fork' and friends lost their ugly dance
with the return pointer.
LOAD_ARGS32 in ia32entry.S now uses symbolic stack offsets
instead of magic numbers.
'error_entry' and 'save_paranoid' now use SAVE_C_REGS +
SAVE_EXTRA_REGS instead of having it open-coded yet again.
Patch was run-tested: 64-bit executables, 32-bit executables,
strace works.
Timing tests did not show measurable difference in 32-bit
and 64-bit syscalls.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.
