4a2c3448ed x86/linkage: Fix padding for typed functions
CFI typed functions are failing to get padded properly for
CONFIG_CALL_PADDING.

931ab63664 x86/ibt: Implement FineIBT
Implement an alternative CFI scheme that merges both the fine-grained
nature of kCFI but also takes full advantage of the coarse grained
hardware CFI as provided by IBT.

To contrast:

  kCFI is a pure software CFI scheme and relies on being able to read
text -- specifically the instruction *before* the target symbol, and
does the hash validation *before* doing the call (otherwise control
flow is compromised already).

  FineIBT is a software and hardware hybrid scheme; by ensuring every
branch target starts with a hash validation it is possible to place
the hash validation after the branch. This has several advantages:

   o the (hash) load is avoided; no memop; no RX requirement.

   o IBT WAIT-FOR-ENDBR state is a speculation stop; by placing
     the hash validation in the immediate instruction after
     the branch target there is a minimal speculation window
     and the whole is a viable defence against SpectreBHB.

   o Kees feels obliged to mention it is slightly more vulnerable
     when the attacker can write code.

Obviously this patch relies on kCFI, but additionally it also relies
on the padding from the call-depth-tracking patches. It uses this
padding to place the hash-validation while the call-sites are
re-written to modify the indirect target to be 16 bytes in front of
the original target, thus hitting this new preamble.

Notably, there is no hardware that needs call-depth-tracking (Skylake)
and supports IBT (Tigerlake and onwards).

bea75b3389 x86/Kconfig: Introduce function padding
Now that all functions are 16 byte aligned, add 16 bytes of NOP
padding in front of each function. This prepares things for software
call stack tracking and kCFI/FineIBT.

This significantly increases kernel .text size, around 5.1% on a
x86_64-defconfig-ish build.

However, per the random access argument used for alignment, these 16
extra bytes are code that wouldn't be used. Performance measurements
back this up by showing no significant performance regressions.

8eb5d34e77 x86/asm: Differentiate between code and function alignment
Create SYM_F_ALIGN to differentiate alignment requirements between
SYM_CODE and SYM_FUNC.

This distinction is useful later when adding padding in front of
functions; IOW this allows following the compiler's
patchable-function-entry option.

d49a062621 arch: Introduce CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT
Generic function-alignment infrastructure.

Architectures can select FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_xxB symbols; the
FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT symbol is then set to the largest such selected
size, 0 otherwise.

From this the -falign-functions compiler argument and __ALIGN macro
are set.

This incorporates the DEBUG_FORCE_FUNCTION_ALIGN_64B knob and future
alignment requirements for x86_64 (later in this series) into a single
place.

NOTE: also removes the 0x90 filler byte from the generic __ALIGN
      primitive, that value makes no sense outside of x86.

NOTE: .balign 0 reverts to a no-op.

e463a09af2 x86: Add straight-line-speculation mitigation
Make use of an upcoming GCC feature to mitigate
straight-line-speculation for x86:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/g:53a643f8568067d7700a9f2facc8ba39974973d3
  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102952
  https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52323

It's built tested on x86_64-allyesconfig using GCC-12 and GCC-11.

Maintenance overhead of this should be fairly low due to objtool
validation.

Size overhead of all these additional int3 instructions comes to:

     text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  22267751	6933356	2011368	31212475	1dc43bb	defconfig-build/vmlinux

ffedeeb780 linkage: Introduce new macros for assembler symbols
Introduce new C macros for annotations of functions and data in
assembly. There is a long-standing mess in macros like ENTRY, END,
ENDPROC and similar. They are used in different manners and sometimes
incorrectly.

So introduce macros with clear use to annotate assembly as follows:

a) Support macros for the ones below
   SYM_T_FUNC -- type used by assembler to mark functions
   SYM_T_OBJECT -- type used by assembler to mark data
   SYM_T_NONE -- type used by assembler to mark entries of unknown type

   They are defined as STT_FUNC, STT_OBJECT, and STT_NOTYPE
   respectively. According to the gas manual, this is the most portable
   way. I am not sure about other assemblers, so this can be switched
   back to %function and %object if this turns into a problem.
   Architectures can also override them by something like ", @function"
   if they need.

   SYM_A_ALIGN, SYM_A_NONE -- align the symbol?
   SYM_L_GLOBAL, SYM_L_WEAK, SYM_L_LOCAL -- linkage of symbols

b) Mostly internal annotations, used by the ones below
   SYM_ENTRY -- use only if you have to (for non-paired symbols)
   SYM_START -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols)
   SYM_END -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols)

c) Annotations for code
   SYM_INNER_LABEL_ALIGN -- only for labels in the middle of code
   SYM_INNER_LABEL -- only for labels in the middle of code

   SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_ALIAS -- use where there are two local names for
	one function
   SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS -- use where there are two global names for one
	function
   SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS -- the end of LOCAL_ALIASed or ALIASed function

   SYM_FUNC_START -- use for global functions
   SYM_FUNC_START_NOALIGN -- use for global functions, w/o alignment
   SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL -- use for local functions
   SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local functions, w/o
	alignment
   SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK -- use for weak functions
   SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_NOALIGN -- use for weak functions, w/o alignment
   SYM_FUNC_END -- the end of SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL, SYM_FUNC_START,
	SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK, ...

   For functions with special (non-C) calling conventions:
   SYM_CODE_START -- use for non-C (special) functions
   SYM_CODE_START_NOALIGN -- use for non-C (special) functions, w/o
	alignment
   SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL -- use for local non-C (special) functions
   SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local non-C (special)
	functions, w/o alignment
   SYM_CODE_END -- the end of SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL or SYM_CODE_START

d) For data
   SYM_DATA_START -- global data symbol
   SYM_DATA_START_LOCAL -- local data symbol
   SYM_DATA_END -- the end of the SYM_DATA_START symbol
   SYM_DATA_END_LABEL -- the labeled end of SYM_DATA_START symbol
   SYM_DATA -- start+end wrapper around simple global data
   SYM_DATA_LOCAL -- start+end wrapper around simple local data

==========

The macros allow to pair starts and ends of functions and mark functions
correctly in the output ELF objects.

All users of the old macros in x86 are converted to use these in further
patches.

b24413180f 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.

d59fe3f13d ix86: Tighten asmlinkage_protect() constraints
While the description of the commit that originally introduced
asmlinkage_protect() validly says that this doesn't guarantee
clobbering of the function arguments, using "m" constraints
rather than "g" ones reduces the risk (by making it less
attractive to the compiler to move those variables into
registers) and generally results in better code (because we know
the arguments are in memory anyway, and are frequently - if not
always - used just once, with the second [compiler visible] use
in asmlinkage_protect() itself being a fake one).

bb7f5f6c26 x86: shrink __ALIGN and __ALIGN_STR definitions
Impact: cleanup

1) .p2align 4 and .align 16 are the same meaning
   (until a.out format for i386 is used which is
    not our case for CONFIG_X86_ALIGNMENT_16 anyway)

2) having 15 as max allowed bytes to be skipped
   does not make sense on modulo 16

7ab152470e x86: linkage.h - guard assembler specifics by __ASSEMBLY__
Stephen Rothwell reported:

|Today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) produced this warning:

|Probably introduced by commit 95695547a7

Any assembler specific snippets being placed in headers
are to be protected by __ASSEMBLY__. Fixed.

Also move __ALIGN definition under the same protection as well.

1b25f3b4e1 x86: linkage - get rid of _X86 macros
Impact: cleanup

There was an attempt to bring build-time checking for
missed ENTRY_X86/END_X86 and KPROBE... pairs. Using
them will add messy in code. Get just rid of them.
This commit could be easily restored if the need appear
in future.

95695547a7 x86: asm linkage - introduce GLOBAL macro
If the code is time critical and this entry is called
from other places we use ENTRY to have it globally defined
and especially aligned.

Contrary we have some snippets which are size
critical. So we use plane ".globl name; name:"
directive. Introduce GLOBAL macro for this.

3b6c52b5b6 x86: introduce ENTRY(KPROBE_ENTRY)_X86 assembly helpers to catch unbalanced declaration v3
Impact: make ENTRY()/END() macros more capable

It's usefull to catch unbalanced or messed or mixed declarations of ENTRY and
KPROBES. These macros would help a bit.

For example the following code would compile without problems

        ENTRY_X86(mcount)
                retq
        END_X86(mcount)

But if you forget and mess the following form

        ENTRY_X86(mcount)
                retq
        END(mcount)

        ENTRY_X86(ftrace_caller)

The assembler will issue the following message:
Error: ENTRY_X86/KPROBE_X86 unbalanced,missed,mixed

Actually the checking is performed at every _X86 macro
so maybe it's good idea to put ENTRY_KPROBE_FINAL_X86
at the end of .S file to be sure you didn't miss anything.

1965aae3c9 x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guards
Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
