+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+ An attacker can train the branch predictor to speculatively skip the

+ the GS register to a user-space value, if the swapgs is speculatively

+
+ When coming from user space, the CPU can speculatively skip the
+ swapgs, and then do a speculative percpu load using the user GS
+ value. So the user can speculatively force a read of any kernel
+ value. If a gadget exists which uses the percpu value as an address
+ in another load/store, then the contents of the kernel value may
+ become visible via an L1 side channel attack.
+
+ A similar attack exists when coming from kernel space. The CPU can

-The IPX protocol has no tunable values in proc/sys/net.
-
-The IPX protocol does, however, provide proc/net/ipx. This lists each IPX
-socket giving the local and remote addresses in Novell format (that is
-network:node:port). In accordance with the strange Novell tradition,
-everything but the port is in hex. Not_Connected is displayed for sockets that
-are not tied to a specific remote address. The Tx and Rx queue sizes indicate
-the number of bytes pending for transmission and reception. The state
-indicates the state the socket is in and the uid is the owning uid of the
-socket.
-
-The /proc/net/ipx_interface file lists all IPX interfaces. For each interface
-it gives the network number, the node number, and indicates if the network is
-the primary network. It also indicates which device it is bound to (or
-Internal for internal networks) and the Frame Type if appropriate. Linux
-supports 802.3, 802.2, 802.2 SNAP and DIX (Blue Book) ethernet framing for
-IPX.
-
-The /proc/net/ipx_route table holds a list of IPX routes. For each route it
-gives the destination network, the router node (or Directly) and the network
-address of the router (or Connected) for internal networks.

-===================
-RISC-V CPU Bindings
-===================
-
-The device tree allows to describe the layout of CPUs in a system through
-the "cpus" node, which in turn contains a number of subnodes (ie "cpu")
-defining properties for every cpu.
-
-Bindings for CPU nodes follow the Devicetree Specification, available from:
-
-https://www.devicetree.org/specifications/
-
-with updates for 32-bit and 64-bit RISC-V systems provided in this document.
-
-===========
-Terminology
-===========
-
-This document uses some terminology common to the RISC-V community that is not
-widely used, the definitions of which are listed here:
-
-* hart: A hardware execution context, which contains all the state mandated by
- the RISC-V ISA: a PC and some registers. This terminology is designed to
- disambiguate software's view of execution contexts from any particular
- microarchitectural implementation strategy. For example, my Intel laptop is
- described as having one socket with two cores, each of which has two hyper
- threads. Therefore this system has four harts.
-
-=====================================
-cpus and cpu node bindings definition
-=====================================
-
-The RISC-V architecture, in accordance with the Devicetree Specification,
-requires the cpus and cpu nodes to be present and contain the properties
-described below.
-
-- cpus node
-
- Description: Container of cpu nodes
-
- The node name must be "cpus".
-
- A cpus node must define the following properties:
-
- - #address-cells
- Usage: required
- Value type: <u32>
- Definition: must be set to 1
- - #size-cells
- Usage: required
- Value type: <u32>
- Definition: must be set to 0
-
-- cpu node
-
- Description: Describes a hart context
-
- PROPERTIES
-
- - device_type
- Usage: required
- Value type: <string>
- Definition: must be "cpu"
- - reg
- Usage: required
- Value type: <u32>
- Definition: The hart ID of this CPU node
- - compatible:
- Usage: required
- Value type: <stringlist>
- Definition: must contain "riscv", may contain one of
- "sifive,rocket0"
- - mmu-type:
- Usage: optional
- Value type: <string>
- Definition: Specifies the CPU's MMU type. Possible values are
- "riscv,sv32"
- "riscv,sv39"
- "riscv,sv48"
- - riscv,isa:
- Usage: required
- Value type: <string>
- Definition: Contains the RISC-V ISA string of this hart. These
- ISA strings are defined by the RISC-V ISA manual.
-
-Example: SiFive Freedom U540G Development Kit
----------------------------------------------
-
-This system contains two harts: a hart marked as disabled that's used for
-low-level system tasks and should be ignored by Linux, and a second hart that
-Linux is allowed to run on.

-Allwinner SUN8I audio codec
-------------------------------------
-
-On Sun8i-A33 SoCs, the audio is separated in different parts:
- - A DAI driver. It uses the "sun4i-i2s" driver which is
- documented here:
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/sun4i-i2s.txt
- - An analog part of the codec which is handled as PRCM registers.
- See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/sun8i-codec-analog.txt
- - An digital part of the codec which is documented in this current
- binding documentation.
- - And finally, an audio card which links all the above components.
- The simple-audio card will be used.
- See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/simple-card.txt
-
-This bindings documentation exposes Sun8i codec (digital part).
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible: must be "allwinner,sun8i-a33-codec"

+
+GDB intends to support the following hardware debug features of BookE
+processors:
+
+4 hardware breakpoints (IAC)
+2 hardware watchpoints (read, write and read-write) (DAC)
+2 value conditions for the hardware watchpoints (DVC)
+
+For that, we need to extend ptrace so that GDB can query and set these
+resources. Since we're extending, we're trying to create an interface
+that's extendable and that covers both BookE and server processors, so
+that GDB doesn't need to special-case each of them. We added the
+following 3 new ptrace requests.
+
+1. PTRACE_PPC_GETHWDEBUGINFO
+============================
+
+Query for GDB to discover the hardware debug features. The main info to
+be returned here is the minimum alignment for the hardware watchpoints.
+BookE processors don't have restrictions here, but server processors have
+an 8-byte alignment restriction for hardware watchpoints. We'd like to avoid
+adding special cases to GDB based on what it sees in AUXV.
+
+Since we're at it, we added other useful info that the kernel can return to
+GDB: this query will return the number of hardware breakpoints, hardware
+watchpoints and whether it supports a range of addresses and a condition.
+The query will fill the following structure provided by the requesting process::
+
+ struct ppc_debug_info {
+ unit32_t version;
+ unit32_t num_instruction_bps;
+ unit32_t num_data_bps;
+ unit32_t num_condition_regs;
+ unit32_t data_bp_alignment;
+ unit32_t sizeof_condition; /* size of the DVC register */
+ uint64_t features; /* bitmask of the individual flags */
+ };
+
+features will have bits indicating whether there is support for::
+
+ #define PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_INSN_BP_RANGE 0x1
+ #define PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_INSN_BP_MASK 0x2
+ #define PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_DATA_BP_RANGE 0x4
+ #define PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_DATA_BP_MASK 0x8
+ #define PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_DATA_BP_DAWR 0x10
+
+2. PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG
+
+Sets a hardware breakpoint or watchpoint, according to the provided structure::
+
+ struct ppc_hw_breakpoint {
+ uint32_t version;
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_TRIGGER_EXECUTE 0x1
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_TRIGGER_READ 0x2
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_TRIGGER_WRITE 0x4
+ uint32_t trigger_type; /* only some combinations allowed */
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_MODE_EXACT 0x0
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_MODE_RANGE_INCLUSIVE 0x1
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_MODE_RANGE_EXCLUSIVE 0x2
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_MODE_MASK 0x3
+ uint32_t addr_mode; /* address match mode */
+
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_MODE 0x3
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_NONE 0x0
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_AND 0x1
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_EXACT 0x1 /* different name for the same thing as above */
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_OR 0x2
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_AND_OR 0x3
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_BE_ALL 0x00ff0000 /* byte enable bits */
+ #define PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_BE(n) (1<<((n)+16))
+ uint32_t condition_mode; /* break/watchpoint condition flags */
+
+ uint64_t addr;
+ uint64_t addr2;
+ uint64_t condition_value;
+ };
+
+A request specifies one event, not necessarily just one register to be set.
+For instance, if the request is for a watchpoint with a condition, both the
+DAC and DVC registers will be set in the same request.
+
+With this GDB can ask for all kinds of hardware breakpoints and watchpoints
+that the BookE supports. COMEFROM breakpoints available in server processors
+are not contemplated, but that is out of the scope of this work.
+
+ptrace will return an integer (handle) uniquely identifying the breakpoint or
+watchpoint just created. This integer will be used in the PTRACE_DELHWDEBUG
+request to ask for its removal. Return -ENOSPC if the requested breakpoint
+can't be allocated on the registers.
+
+Some examples of using the structure to:
+
+- set a breakpoint in the first breakpoint register::
+
+ p.version = PPC_DEBUG_CURRENT_VERSION;
+ p.trigger_type = PPC_BREAKPOINT_TRIGGER_EXECUTE;
+ p.addr_mode = PPC_BREAKPOINT_MODE_EXACT;
+ p.condition_mode = PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_NONE;
+ p.addr = (uint64_t) address;
+ p.addr2 = 0;

+ p.addr2 = 0;
+ p.condition_value = 0;
+
+- set a watchpoint which triggers only with a specific value::

+ p.condition_mode = PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_AND | PPC_BREAKPOINT_CONDITION_BE_ALL;
+ p.addr = (uint64_t) address;
+ p.addr2 = 0;
+ p.condition_value = (uint64_t) condition;

+Embargoed hardware issues
+=========================
+
+Scope
+-----
+
+Hardware issues which result in security problems are a different category
+of security bugs than pure software bugs which only affect the Linux
+kernel.
+
+Hardware issues like Meltdown, Spectre, L1TF etc. must be treated
+differently because they usually affect all Operating Systems ("OS") and
+therefore need coordination across different OS vendors, distributions,
+hardware vendors and other parties. For some of the issues, software
+mitigations can depend on microcode or firmware updates, which need further
+coordination.
+
+.. _Contact:
+
+Contact
+-------
+
+The Linux kernel hardware security team is separate from the regular Linux
+kernel security team.
+
+The team only handles the coordination of embargoed hardware security
+issues. Reports of pure software security bugs in the Linux kernel are not
+handled by this team and the reporter will be guided to contact the regular
+Linux kernel security team (:ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/
+<securitybugs>`) instead.
+
+The team can be contacted by email at <hardware-security@kernel.org>. This
+is a private list of security officers who will help you to coordinate an
+issue according to our documented process.
+
+The list is encrypted and email to the list can be sent by either PGP or
+S/MIME encrypted and must be signed with the reporter's PGP key or S/MIME
+certificate. The list's PGP key and S/MIME certificate are available from
+https://www.kernel.org/....
+
+While hardware security issues are often handled by the affected hardware
+vendor, we welcome contact from researchers or individuals who have
+identified a potential hardware flaw.
+
+Hardware security officers
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The current team of hardware security officers:
+
+ - Linus Torvalds (Linux Foundation Fellow)
+ - Greg Kroah-Hartman (Linux Foundation Fellow)
+ - Thomas Gleixner (Linux Foundation Fellow)
+
+Operation of mailing-lists
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The encrypted mailing-lists which are used in our process are hosted on
+Linux Foundation's IT infrastructure. By providing this service Linux
+Foundation's director of IT Infrastructure security technically has the
+ability to access the embargoed information, but is obliged to
+confidentiality by his employment contract. Linux Foundation's director of
+IT Infrastructure security is also responsible for the kernel.org
+infrastructure.
+
+The Linux Foundation's current director of IT Infrastructure security is
+Konstantin Ryabitsev.
+
+
+Non-disclosure agreements
+-------------------------
+
+The Linux kernel hardware security team is not a formal body and therefore
+unable to enter into any non-disclosure agreements. The kernel community
+is aware of the sensitive nature of such issues and offers a Memorandum of
+Understanding instead.
+
+
+Memorandum of Understanding
+---------------------------
+
+The Linux kernel community has a deep understanding of the requirement to
+keep hardware security issues under embargo for coordination between
+different OS vendors, distributors, hardware vendors and other parties.
+
+The Linux kernel community has successfully handled hardware security
+issues in the past and has the necessary mechanisms in place to allow
+community compliant development under embargo restrictions.
+
+The Linux kernel community has a dedicated hardware security team for
+initial contact, which oversees the process of handling such issues under
+embargo rules.
+
+The hardware security team identifies the developers (domain experts) who
+will form the initial response team for a particular issue. The initial
+response team can bring in further developers (domain experts) to address
+the issue in the best technical way.
+
+All involved developers pledge to adhere to the embargo rules and to keep
+the received information confidential. Violation of the pledge will lead to
+immediate exclusion from the current issue and removal from all related
+mailing-lists. In addition, the hardware security team will also exclude
+the offender from future issues. The impact of this consequence is a highly
+effective deterrent in our community. In case a violation happens the
+hardware security team will inform the involved parties immediately. If you
+or anyone becomes aware of a potential violation, please report it
+immediately to the Hardware security officers.
+
+
+Process
+^^^^^^^
+
+Due to the globally distributed nature of Linux kernel development,
+face-to-face meetings are almost impossible to address hardware security
+issues. Phone conferences are hard to coordinate due to time zones and
+other factors and should be only used when absolutely necessary. Encrypted
+email has been proven to be the most effective and secure communication
+method for these types of issues.
+
+Start of Disclosure
+"""""""""""""""""""
+
+Disclosure starts by contacting the Linux kernel hardware security team by
+email. This initial contact should contain a description of the problem and
+a list of any known affected hardware. If your organization builds or
+distributes the affected hardware, we encourage you to also consider what
+other hardware could be affected.
+
+The hardware security team will provide an incident-specific encrypted
+mailing-list which will be used for initial discussion with the reporter,
+further disclosure and coordination.
+
+The hardware security team will provide the disclosing party a list of
+developers (domain experts) who should be informed initially about the
+issue after confirming with the developers that they will adhere to this
+Memorandum of Understanding and the documented process. These developers
+form the initial response team and will be responsible for handling the
+issue after initial contact. The hardware security team is supporting the
+response team, but is not necessarily involved in the mitigation
+development process.
+
+While individual developers might be covered by a non-disclosure agreement
+via their employer, they cannot enter individual non-disclosure agreements
+in their role as Linux kernel developers. They will, however, agree to
+adhere to this documented process and the Memorandum of Understanding.
+
+
+Disclosure
+""""""""""
+
+The disclosing party provides detailed information to the initial response
+team via the specific encrypted mailing-list.
+
+From our experience the technical documentation of these issues is usually
+a sufficient starting point and further technical clarification is best
+done via email.
+
+Mitigation development
+""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The initial response team sets up an encrypted mailing-list or repurposes
+an existing one if appropriate. The disclosing party should provide a list
+of contacts for all other parties who have already been, or should be,
+informed about the issue. The response team contacts these parties so they
+can name experts who should be subscribed to the mailing-list.
+
+Using a mailing-list is close to the normal Linux development process and
+has been successfully used in developing mitigations for various hardware
+security issues in the past.
+
+The mailing-list operates in the same way as normal Linux development.
+Patches are posted, discussed and reviewed and if agreed on applied to a
+non-public git repository which is only accessible to the participating
+developers via a secure connection. The repository contains the main
+development branch against the mainline kernel and backport branches for
+stable kernel versions as necessary.
+
+The initial response team will identify further experts from the Linux
+kernel developer community as needed and inform the disclosing party about
+their participation. Bringing in experts can happen at any time of the
+development process and often needs to be handled in a timely manner.
+
+Coordinated release
+"""""""""""""""""""
+
+The involved parties will negotiate the date and time where the embargo
+ends. At that point the prepared mitigations are integrated into the
+relevant kernel trees and published.
+
+While we understand that hardware security issues need coordinated embargo
+time, the embargo time should be constrained to the minimum time which is
+required for all involved parties to develop, test and prepare the
+mitigations. Extending embargo time artificially to meet conference talk
+dates or other non-technical reasons is creating more work and burden for
+the involved developers and response teams as the patches need to be kept
+up to date in order to follow the ongoing upstream kernel development,
+which might create conflicting changes.
+
+CVE assignment
+""""""""""""""
+
+Neither the hardware security team nor the initial response team assign
+CVEs, nor are CVEs required for the development process. If CVEs are
+provided by the disclosing party they can be used for documentation
+purposes.
+
+Process ambassadors
+-------------------
+
+For assistance with this process we have established ambassadors in various
+organizations, who can answer questions about or provide guidance on the
+reporting process and further handling. Ambassadors are not involved in the
+disclosure of a particular issue, unless requested by a response team or by
+an involved disclosed party. The current ambassadors list:
+
+ ============= ========================================================
+ ARM
+ AMD
+ IBM
+ Intel
+ Qualcomm Trilok Soni <tsoni@codeaurora.org>
+
+ Microsoft Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
+ VMware
+ Xen Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>
+
+ Canonical Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com>
+ Debian Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
+ Oracle Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
+ Red Hat Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>
+ SUSE Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
+
+ Amazon
+ Google Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
+ ============= ========================================================
+
+If you want your organization to be added to the ambassadors list, please
+contact the hardware security team. The nominated ambassador has to
+understand and support our process fully and is ideally well connected in
+the Linux kernel community.
+
+Encrypted mailing-lists
+-----------------------
+
+We use encrypted mailing-lists for communication. The operating principle
+of these lists is that email sent to the list is encrypted either with the
+list's PGP key or with the list's S/MIME certificate. The mailing-list
+software decrypts the email and re-encrypts it individually for each
+subscriber with the subscriber's PGP key or S/MIME certificate. Details
+about the mailing-list software and the setup which is used to ensure the
+security of the lists and protection of the data can be found here:
+https://www.kernel.org/....
+
+List keys
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+For initial contact see :ref:`Contact`. For incident specific mailing-lists
+the key and S/MIME certificate are conveyed to the subscribers by email
+sent from the specific list.
+
+Subscription to incident specific lists
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Subscription is handled by the response teams. Disclosed parties who want
+to participate in the communication send a list of potential subscribers to
+the response team so the response team can validate subscription requests.
+
+Each subscriber needs to send a subscription request to the response team
+by email. The email must be signed with the subscriber's PGP key or S/MIME
+certificate. If a PGP key is used, it must be available from a public key
+server and is ideally connected to the Linux kernel's PGP web of trust. See
+also: https://www.kernel.org/signature.html.
+
+The response team verifies that the subscriber request is valid and adds
+the subscriber to the list. After subscription the subscriber will receive
+email from the mailing-list which is signed either with the list's PGP key
+or the list's S/MIME certificate. The subscriber's email client can extract
+the PGP key or the S/MIME certificate from the signature so the subscriber
+can send encrypted email to the list.

+Linguaggio di programmazione
+============================
+
+Il kernel è scritto nel linguaggio di programmazione C [c-language]_.
+Più precisamente, il kernel viene compilato con ``gcc`` [gcc]_ usando
+l'opzione ``-std=gnu89`` [gcc-c-dialect-options]_: il dialetto GNU
+dello standard ISO C90 (con l'aggiunta di alcune funzionalità da C99)
+
+Questo dialetto contiene diverse estensioni al linguaggio [gnu-extensions]_,
+e molte di queste vengono usate sistematicamente dal kernel.
+
+Il kernel offre un certo livello di supporto per la compilazione con ``clang``
+[clang]_ e ``icc`` [icc]_ su diverse architetture, tuttavia in questo momento
+il supporto non è completo e richiede delle patch aggiuntive.
+
+Attributi
+---------
+
+Una delle estensioni più comuni e usate nel kernel sono gli attributi
+[gcc-attribute-syntax]_. Gli attributi permettono di aggiungere una semantica,
+definita dell'implementazione, alle entità del linguaggio (come le variabili,
+le funzioni o i tipi) senza dover fare importanti modifiche sintattiche al
+linguaggio stesso (come l'aggiunta di nuove parole chiave) [n2049]_.
+
+In alcuni casi, gli attributi sono opzionali (ovvero un compilatore che non
+dovesse supportarli dovrebbe produrre comunque codice corretto, anche se
+più lento o che non esegue controlli aggiuntivi durante la compilazione).
+
+Il kernel definisce alcune pseudo parole chiave (per esempio ``__pure``)
+in alternativa alla sintassi GNU per gli attributi (per esempio
+``__attribute__((__pure__))``) allo scopo di mostrare quali funzionalità si
+possono usare e/o per accorciare il codice.
+
+Per maggiori informazioni consultate il file d'intestazione
+``include/linux/compiler_attributes.h``.
