Pull x86 cpuid updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Cache the AMD debug registers in per-CPU variables to avoid MSR
writes where possible, when supporting a debug registers swap feature
for SEV-ES guests
- Add support for AMD's version of eIBRS called Automatic IBRS which is
a set-and-forget control of indirect branch restriction speculation
resources on privilege change
- Add support for a new x86 instruction - LKGS - Load kernel GS which
is part of the FRED infrastructure
- Reset SPEC_CTRL upon init to accomodate use cases like kexec which
rediscover
- Other smaller fixes and cleanups

Reading DR[0-3]_ADDR_MASK MSRs takes about 250 cycles which is going to
be noticeable with the AMD KVM SEV-ES DebugSwap feature enabled. KVM is
going to store host's DR[0-3] and DR[0-3]_ADDR_MASK before switching to
a guest; the hardware is going to swap these on VMRUN and VMEXIT.
Store MSR values passed to set_dr_addr_mask() in percpu variables
(when changed) and return them via new amd_get_dr_addr_mask().
The gain here is about 10x.
As set_dr_addr_mask() uses the array too, change the @dr type to
unsigned to avoid checking for <0. And give it the amd_ prefix to match
the new helper as the whole DR_ADDR_MASK feature is AMD-specific anyway.
While at it, replace deprecated boot_cpu_has() with cpu_feature_enabled()
in set_dr_addr_mask().

In kernels compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n, the compiler re-orders the
DR7 read in exc_nmi() to happen before the call to sev_es_ist_enter().
This is problematic when running as an SEV-ES guest because in this
environment the DR7 read might cause a #VC exception, and taking #VC
exceptions is not safe in exc_nmi() before sev_es_ist_enter() has run.
The result is stack recursion if the NMI was caused on the #VC IST
stack, because a subsequent #VC exception in the NMI handler will
overwrite the stack frame of the interrupted #VC handler.
As there are no compiler barriers affecting the ordering of DR7
reads/writes, make the accesses to this register volatile, forbidding
the compiler to re-order them.
[ bp: Massage text, make them volatile too, to make sure some
aggressive compiler optimization pass doesn't discard them. ]

swapping the order of includes in arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c (simulating
KVM code movement being done for other purposes) results in build errors:

Because DRn access is 'difficult' with virt; but the DR7 read is cheaper
than a cacheline miss on native, add a virt specific fast path to
local_db_save(), such that when breakpoints are not in use to avoid

The debug IST stack is actually two separate debug stacks to handle #DB
recursion. This is required because the CPU starts always at top of stack
on exception entry, which means on #DB recursion the second #DB would
overwrite the stack of the first.
The low level entry code therefore adjusts the top of stack on entry so a
secondary #DB starts from a different stack page. But the stack pages are
adjacent without a guard page between them.
Split the debug stack into 3 stacks which are separated by guard pages. The
3rd stack is never mapped into the cpu_entry_area and is only there to
catch triple #DB nesting:
--- top of DB_stack <- Initial stack
--- end of DB_stack
guard page
--- top of DB1_stack <- Top of stack after entering first #DB
--- end of DB1_stack
guard page
--- top of DB2_stack <- Top of stack after entering second #DB
--- end of DB2_stack
guard page
If DB2 would not act as the final guard hole, a second #DB would point the
top of #DB stack to the stack below #DB1 which would be valid and not catch
the not so desired triple nesting.
The backing store does not allocate any memory for DB2 and its guard page
as it is not going to be mapped into the cpu_entry_area.
- Adjust the low level entry code so it adjusts top of #DB with the offset
between the stacks instead of exception stack size.
- Make the dumpstack code aware of the new stacks.
- Adjust the in_debug_stack() implementation and move it into the NMI code
where it belongs. As this is NMI hotpath code, it just checks the full
area between top of DB_stack and bottom of DB1_stack without checking
for the guard page. That's correct because the NMI cannot hit a
stackpointer pointing to the guard page between DB and DB1 stack. Even
if it would, then the NMI operation still is unaffected, but the resume
of the debug exception on the topmost DB stack will crash by touching
the guard page.

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.

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
__this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
__this_cpu_inc(y)

Since we already have a debugreg.h header file, move the
assoc. get/set functions to it. In addition to it being the
logical home for them, it has a secondary advantage. The
functions that are moved use BUG(). So we really need to
have linux/bug.h in scope. But asm/processor.h is used about
600 times, vs. only about 15 for debugreg.h -- so adding bug.h
to the latter reduces the amount of time we'll be processing
it during a compile.

Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out a case that can cause issues with
NMIs running on the debug stack:
int3 -> interrupt -> NMI -> int3
Because the interrupt changes the stack, the NMI will not see that
it preempted the debug stack. Looking deeper at this case,
interrupts only happen when the int3 is from userspace or in
an a location in the exception table (fixup).
userspace -> int3 -> interurpt -> NMI -> int3
All other int3s that happen in the kernel should be processed
without ever enabling interrupts, as the do_trap() call will
panic the kernel if it is called to process any other location
within the kernel.
Adding a counter around the sections that enable interrupts while
using the debug stack allows the NMI to also check that case.
If the NMI sees that it either interrupted a task using the debug
stack or the debug counter is non-zero, then it will have to
change the IDT table to make the int3 not change stacks (which will
corrupt the stack if it does).
Note, I had to move the debug_usage functions out of processor.h
and into debugreg.h because of the static inlined functions to
inc and dec the debug_usage counter. __get_cpu_var() requires
smp.h which includes processor.h, and would fail to build.

This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of
perf events instances.
Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the
register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc..
The new layering is now made as follows:
ptrace kgdb ftrace perf syscall

Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling
(Part of core breakpoint API)
|
|
Hardware debug registers
Reasons of this rewrite:
- Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling,
implying an easier arch integration
- More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible
events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...)
Impact:
- New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters
- Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per
thread breakpoints references.
Todo (in the order):
- Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement
perf_bpcounter_event())
- Support from perf tools
Changes in v2:
- Follow the perf "event " rename
- The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events
weren't released when a task ended)
- Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in
perf_event_attr.
- Separate core and arch specific headers, drop
asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h
- Use new generic len/type for breakpoint
- Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch
Changes in v3:
- Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api
changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers
to the host.
Changes in v4:
- Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a
module
- Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit:
TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running
breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be
set when the guest used debug registers.
(Waiting for a reliable optimization)
Changes in v5:
- Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to
linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch
- Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest
to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active
breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up
address registers.
- Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild
- Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c
Changes in v6:
- Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build
error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST

The generic hardware breakpoint interface provides an abstraction of
hardware breakpoints in front of specific arch implementations for both kernel
and user side breakpoints.
This includes execution breakpoints and read/write breakpoints, also known as
"watchpoints".
This patch introduces header files containing constants, structure definitions
and declaration of functions used by the hardware breakpoint core and x86
specific code.
It also introduces an array based storage for the debug-register values in
'struct thread_struct', while modifying all users of debugreg<n> member in the
structure.
[ Impact: add headers for new hardware breakpoint interface ]

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.
