Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

There are two main use cases for mmu notifiers. One is by KVM which uses
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/end() to manage a software TLB.
The other is to manage hardware TLBs which need to use the
invalidate_range() callback because HW can establish new TLB entries at
any time. Hence using start/end() can lead to memory corruption as these
callbacks happen too soon/late during page unmap.
mmu notifier users should therefore either use the start()/end() callbacks
or the invalidate_range() callbacks. To make this usage clearer rename
the invalidate_range() callback to arch_invalidate_secondary_tlbs() and
update documention.

The invalidate_range() is going to become an architecture specific mmu
notifier used to keep the TLB of secondary MMUs such as an IOMMU in sync
with the CPU page tables. Currently it is called from separate code paths
to the main CPU TLB invalidations. This can lead to a secondary TLB not
getting invalidated when required and makes it hard to reason about when
exactly the secondary TLB is invalidated.
To fix this move the notifier call to the architecture specific TLB
maintenance functions for architectures that have secondary MMUs requiring
explicit software invalidations.
This fixes a SMMU bug on ARM64. On ARM64 PTE permission upgrades require
a TLB invalidation. This invalidation is done by the architecture
specific ptep_set_access_flags() which calls flush_tlb_page() if required.
However this doesn't call the notifier resulting in infinite faults being
generated by devices using the SMMU if it has previously cached a
read-only PTE in it's TLB.
Moving the invalidations into the TLB invalidation functions ensures all
invalidations happen at the same time as the CPU invalidation. The
architecture specific flush_tlb_all() routines do not call the notifier as
none of the IOMMUs require this.

Currently we'll flush the mm in flush_tlb_batched_pending() to avoid race
between reclaim unmaps pages by batched TLB flush and mprotect/munmap/etc.
Other architectures like arm64 may only need a synchronization
barrier(dsb) here rather than a full mm flush. So add
arch_flush_tlb_batched_pending() to allow an arch-specific implementation
here. This intends no functional changes on x86 since still a full mm
flush for x86.

This patch does some preparation works to extend batched TLB flush to
arm64. Including:
- Extend set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() and arch_tlbbatch_add_mm()
to accept an additional argument for address, architectures
like arm64 may need this for tlbi.
- Rename arch_tlbbatch_add_mm() to arch_tlbbatch_add_pending()
to match its current function since we don't need to handle
mm on architectures like arm64 and add_mm is not proper,
add_pending will make sense to both as on x86 we're pending the
TLB flush operations while on arm64 we're pending the synchronize
operations.
This intends no functional changes on x86.

Patch series "arm64: support batched/deferred tlb shootdown during page
reclamation/migration", v11.
Though ARM64 has the hardware to do tlb shootdown, the hardware
broadcasting is not free. A simplest micro benchmark shows even on
snapdragon 888 with only 8 cores, the overhead for ptep_clear_flush is
huge even for paging out one page mapped by only one process: 5.36% a.out
[kernel.kallsyms] [k] ptep_clear_flush
While pages are mapped by multiple processes or HW has more CPUs, the cost
should become even higher due to the bad scalability of tlb shootdown.
The same benchmark can result in 16.99% CPU consumption on ARM64 server
with around 100 cores according to the test on patch 4/4.
This patchset leverages the existing BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH by
1. only send tlbi instructions in the first stage -
arch_tlbbatch_add_mm()
2. wait for the completion of tlbi by dsb while doing tlbbatch
sync in arch_tlbbatch_flush()
Testing on snapdragon shows the overhead of ptep_clear_flush is removed by
the patchset. The micro benchmark becomes 5% faster even for one page
mapped by single process on snapdragon 888.
Since BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH is implemented only on x86, the patchset
does some renaming/extension for the current implementation first (Patch
1-3), then add the support on arm64 (Patch 4).
This patch (of 4):
The entire scheme of deferred TLB flush in reclaim path rests on the fact
that the cost to refill TLB entries is less than flushing out individual
entries by sending IPI to remote CPUs. But architecture can have
different ways to evaluate that. Hence apart from checking
TTU_BATCH_FLUSH in the TTU flags, rest of the decision should be
architecture specific.

Some OSes have a greater dependence on software available bits in PTEs than
Linux. That left the hardware architects looking for a way to represent a
new memory type (shadow stack) within the existing bits. They chose to
repurpose a lightly-used state: Write=0,Dirty=1. So in order to support
shadow stack memory, Linux should avoid creating memory with this PTE bit
combination unless it intends for it to be shadow stack.
The reason it's lightly used is that Dirty=1 is normally set by HW
_before_ a write. A write with a Write=0 PTE would typically only generate
a fault, not set Dirty=1. Hardware can (rarely) both set Dirty=1 *and*
generate the fault, resulting in a Write=0,Dirty=1 PTE. Hardware which
supports shadow stacks will no longer exhibit this oddity.
So that leaves Write=0,Dirty=1 PTEs created in software. To avoid
inadvertently created shadow stack memory, in places where Linux normally
creates Write=0,Dirty=1, it can use the software-defined _PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY
in place of the hardware _PAGE_DIRTY. In other words, whenever Linux needs
to create Write=0,Dirty=1, it instead creates Write=0,SavedDirty=1 except
for shadow stack, which is Write=0,Dirty=1.
There are six bits left available to software in the 64-bit PTE after
consuming a bit for _PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY. For 32 bit, the same bit as
_PAGE_BIT_UFFD_WP is used, since user fault fd is not supported on 32
bit. This leaves one unused software bit on 32 bit (_PAGE_BIT_SOFT_DIRTY,
as this is also not supported on 32 bit).
Implement only the infrastructure for _PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY. Changes to
actually begin creating _PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY PTEs will follow once other
pieces are in place.
Since this SavedDirty shifting is done for all x86 CPUs, this leaves
the possibility for the hardware oddity to still create Write=0,Dirty=1
PTEs in rare cases. Since these CPUs also don't support shadow stack, this
will be harmless as it was before the introduction of SavedDirty.
Implement the shifting logic to be branchless. Embed the logic of whether
to do the shifting (including checking the Write bits) so that it can be
called by future callers that would otherwise need additional branching
logic. This efficiency allows the logic of when to do the shifting to be
centralized, making the code easier to reason about.

Commit aa44284960d5 ("x86/mm/tlb: Avoid reading mm_tlb_gen when
possible") introduced an optimization to skip superfluous TLB
flushes based on the generation provided in flush_tlb_info.
However, arch_tlbbatch_flush() does not provide any generation in
flush_tlb_info and populates the flush_tlb_info generation with
0. This 0 is causes the flush_tlb_info to be interpreted as a
superfluous, old flush. As a result, try_to_unmap_one() would
not perform any TLB flushes.
Fix it by checking whether f->new_tlb_gen is nonzero. Zero value
is anyhow is an invalid generation value. To avoid future
confusion, introduce TLB_GENERATION_INVALID constant and use it
properly. Add warnings to ensure no partial flushes are done with
TLB_GENERATION_INVALID or when f->mm is NULL, since this does not
make any sense.
In addition, add the missing unlikely().

Currently, using mprotect() to unprotect a memory region or uffd to
unprotect a memory region causes a TLB flush. However, in such cases the
PTE is often not modified (i.e., remain RO) and therefore not TLB flush is
needed.
Add an arch-specific pte_needs_flush() which tells whether a TLB flush is
needed based on the old PTE and the new one. Implement an x86
pte_needs_flush().
Always flush the TLB when it is architecturally needed even when skipping
a TLB flush might only result in a spurious page-faults by skipping the
flush.
Even with such conservative manner, we can in the future further refine
the checks to test whether a PTE is present by only considering the
architectural _PAGE_PRESENT flag instead of {pte|pmd}_preesnt(). For not
be careful and use the latter.

To improve TLB shootdown performance, flush the remote and local TLBs
concurrently. Introduce flush_tlb_multi() that does so. Introduce
paravirtual versions of flush_tlb_multi() for KVM, Xen and hyper-v (Xen
and hyper-v are only compile-tested).
While the updated smp infrastructure is capable of running a function on
a single local core, it is not optimized for this case. The multiple
function calls and the indirect branch introduce some overhead, and
might make local TLB flushes slower than they were before the recent
changes.
Before calling the SMP infrastructure, check if only a local TLB flush
is needed to restore the lost performance in this common case. This
requires to check mm_cpumask() one more time, but unless this mask is
updated very frequently, this should impact performance negatively.

The unification of these two functions allows to use them in the updated
SMP infrastrucutre.
To do so, remove the reason argument from flush_tlb_func_local(), add
a member to struct tlb_flush_info that says which CPU initiated the
flush and act accordingly. Optimize the size of flush_tlb_info while we
are at it.
Unfortunately, this prevents us from using a constant tlb_flush_info for
arch_tlbbatch_flush(), but in a later stage we may be able to inline
tlb_flush_info into the IPI data, so it should not have an impact
eventually.

load_mm_cr4() is always called with interrupts disabled from:
- switch_mm_irqs_off()
- refresh_pce(), which is a on_each_cpu() callback
Thus, disabling interrupts in cr4_set/clear_bits() is redundant.
Implement cr4_set/clear_bits_irqsoff() helpers, rename load_mm_cr4() to
load_mm_cr4_irqsoff() and use the new helpers. The new helpers do not need
a lockdep assert as __cr4_set() has one already.
The renaming in combination with the checks in __cr4_set() ensure that any
changes in the boundary conditions at the call sites will be detected.

"The changes in here are:
- text_poke() fixes and an extensive set of executability lockdowns,
to (hopefully) eliminate the last residual circumstances under
which we are using W|X mappings even temporarily on x86 kernels.
This required a broad range of surgery in text patching facilities,
module loading, trampoline handling and other bits.
- tweak page fault messages to be more informative and more
structured.
- remove DISCONTIGMEM support on x86-32 and make SPARSEMEM the
default.

x86 has an nmi_uaccess_okay(), but other architectures do not.
Arch-independent code might need to know whether access to user
addresses is ok in an NMI context or in other code whose execution
context is unknown. Specifically, this function is needed for
bpf_probe_write_user().
Add a default implementation of nmi_uaccess_okay() for architectures
that do not have such a function.

The IBPB speculation barrier is issued from switch_mm() when the kernel
switches to a user space task with a different mm than the user space task
which ran last on the same CPU.
An additional optimization is to avoid IBPB when the incoming task can be
ptraced by the outgoing task. This optimization only works when switching
directly between two user space tasks. When switching from a kernel task to
a user space task the optimization fails because the previous task cannot
be accessed anymore. So for quite some scenarios the optimization is just
adding overhead.
The upcoming conditional IBPB support will issue IBPB only for user space
tasks which have the TIF_SPEC_IB bit set. This requires to handle the
following cases:
1) Switch from a user space task (potential attacker) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB set to a user space task (potential victim) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB not set.
2) Switch from a user space task (potential attacker) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB not set to a user space task (potential victim) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB set.
This needs to be optimized for the case where the IBPB can be avoided when
only kernel threads ran in between user space tasks which belong to the
same process.
The current check whether two tasks belong to the same context is using the
tasks context id. While correct, it's simpler to use the mm pointer because
it allows to mangle the TIF_SPEC_IB bit into it. The context id based
mechanism requires extra storage, which creates worse code.
When a task is scheduled out its TIF_SPEC_IB bit is mangled as bit 0 into
the per CPU storage which is used to track the last user space mm which was
running on a CPU. This bit can be used together with the TIF_SPEC_IB bit of
the incoming task to make the decision whether IBPB needs to be issued or
not to cover the two cases above.
As conditional IBPB is going to be the default, remove the dubious ptrace
check for the IBPB always case and simply issue IBPB always when the
process changes.
Move the storage to a different place in the struct as the original one
created a hole.

The WARN_ON_ONCE(__read_cr3() != build_cr3()) in switch_mm_irqs_off()
triggers every once in a while during a snapshotted system upgrade.
The warning triggers since commit decab0888e6e ("x86/mm: Remove
preempt_disable/enable() from __native_flush_tlb()"). The callchain is:
get_page_from_freelist() -> post_alloc_hook() -> __kernel_map_pages()
with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC enabled.
Disable preemption during CR3 reset / __flush_tlb_all() and add a comment
why preemption has to be disabled so it won't be removed accidentaly.
Add another preemptible() check in __flush_tlb_all() to catch callers with
enabled preemption when PGE is enabled, because PGE enabled does not
trigger the warning in __native_flush_tlb(). Suggested by Andy Lutomirski.

On most workloads, the number of context switches far exceeds the
number of TLB flushes sent. Optimizing the context switches, by always
using lazy TLB mode, speeds up those workloads.
This patch results in about a 1% reduction in CPU use on a two socket
Broadwell system running a memcache like workload.

A NMI can hit in the middle of context switching or in the middle of
switch_mm_irqs_off(). In either case, CR3 might not match current->mm,
which could cause copy_from_user_nmi() and friends to read the wrong
memory.
Fix it by adding a new nmi_uaccess_okay() helper and checking it in
copy_from_user_nmi() and in __copy_from_user_nmi()'s callers.

Andy discovered that speculative memory accesses while in lazy
TLB mode can crash a system, when a CPU tries to dereference a
speculative access using memory contents that used to be valid
page table memory, but have since been reused for something else
and point into la-la land.
The latter problem can be prevented in two ways. The first is to
always send a TLB shootdown IPI to CPUs in lazy TLB mode, while
the second one is to only send the TLB shootdown at page table
freeing time.
The second should result in fewer IPIs, since operationgs like
mprotect and madvise are very common with some workloads, but
do not involve page table freeing. Also, on munmap, batching
of page table freeing covers much larger ranges of virtual
memory than the batching of unmapped user pages.

03781e40890c: x86/efi: Use efi_switch_mm() rather than manually twiddling with %cr3
When the platform supports PCID and if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y is enabled,
build_cr3_noflush() (called via switch_mm()) does a sanity check to see
if X86_FEATURE_PCID is set.
Presently, build_cr3_noflush() uses "this_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PCID)" to
perform the check but this_cpu_has() works only after SMP is initialized
(i.e. per cpu cpu_info's should be populated) and this happens to be very
late in the boot process (during rest_init()).
As efi_runtime_services() are called during (early) kernel boot time
and run time, modify build_cr3_noflush() to use boot_cpu_has() all the
time. As suggested by Dave Hansen, this should be OK because all CPU's have
same capabilities on x86.
With this change the warning is fixed.
( Dave also suggested that we put a warning in this_cpu_has() if it's used
early in the boot process. This is still work in progress as it affects
MCE. )

__flush_tlb_one_[user|kernel]()
flush_tlb_single() and flush_tlb_one() sound almost identical, but
they really mean "flush one user translation" and "flush one kernel
translation". Rename them to flush_tlb_one_user() and
flush_tlb_one_kernel() to make the semantics more obvious.
[ I was looking at some PTI-related code, and the flush-one-address code
is unnecessarily hard to understand because the names of the helpers are
uninformative. This came up during PTI review, but no one got around to
doing it. ]

Flush indirect branches when switching into a process that marked itself
non dumpable. This protects high value processes like gpg better,
without having too high performance overhead.
If done naïvely, we could switch to a kernel idle thread and then back
to the original process, such as:
process A -> idle -> process A
In such scenario, we do not have to do IBPB here even though the process
is non-dumpable, as we are switching back to the same process after a
hiatus.
To avoid the redundant IBPB, which is expensive, we track the last mm
user context ID. The cost is to have an extra u64 mm context id to track
the last mm we were using before switching to the init_mm used by idle.
Avoiding the extra IBPB is probably worth the extra memory for this
common scenario.
For those cases where tlb_defer_switch_to_init_mm() returns true (non
PCID), lazy tlb will defer switch to init_mm, so we will not be changing
the mm for the process A -> idle -> process A switch. So IBPB will be
skipped for this case.
Thanks to the reviewers and Andy Lutomirski for the suggestion of
using ctx_id which got rid of the problem of mm pointer recycling.

Pull x86 pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains:
- a PTI bugfix to avoid setting reserved CR3 bits when PCID is
disabled. This seems to cause issues on a virtual machine at least
and is incorrect according to the AMD manual.
- a PTI bugfix which disables the perf BTS facility if PTI is
enabled. The BTS AUX buffer is not globally visible and causes the
CPU to fault when the mapping disappears on switching CR3 to user
space. A full fix which restores BTS on PTI is non trivial and will
be worked on.
- PTI bugfixes for EFI and trusted boot which make sure that the user
space visible page table entries have the NX bit cleared
- removal of dead code in the PTI pagetable setup functions
- add PTI documentation
- add a selftest for vsyscall to verify that the kernel actually
implements what it advertises.
- a sysfs interface to expose vulnerability and mitigation
information so there is a coherent way for users to retrieve the
status.
- the initial spectre_v2 mitigations, aka retpoline:
+ The necessary ASM thunk and compiler support
+ The ASM variants of retpoline and the conversion of affected ASM
code
+ Make LFENCE serializing on AMD so it can be used as speculation
trap
+ The RSB fill after vmexit
- initial objtool support for retpoline
As I said in the status mail this is the most of the set of patches
which should go into 4.15 except two straight forward patches still on
hold:
- the retpoline add on of LFENCE which waits for ACKs
- the RSB fill after context switch
Both should be ready to go early next week and with that we'll have
covered the major holes of spectre_v2 and go back to normality"

The switch to the user space page tables in the low level ASM code sets
unconditionally bit 12 and bit 11 of CR3. Bit 12 is switching the base
address of the page directory to the user part, bit 11 is switching the
PCID to the PCID associated with the user page tables.
This fails on a machine which lacks PCID support because bit 11 is set in
CR3. Bit 11 is reserved when PCID is inactive.
While the Intel SDM claims that the reserved bits are ignored when PCID is
disabled, the AMD APM states that they should be cleared.
This went unnoticed as the AMD APM was not checked when the code was
developed and reviewed and test systems with Intel CPUs never failed to
boot. The report is against a Centos 6 host where the guest fails to boot,
so it's not yet clear whether this is a virt issue or can happen on real
hardware too, but thats irrelevant as the AMD APM clearly ask for clearing
the reserved bits.
Make sure that on non PCID machines bit 11 is not set by the page table
switching code.
Andy suggested to rename the related bits and masks so they are clearly
describing what they should be used for, which is done as well for clarity.
That split could have been done with alternatives but the macro hell is
horrible and ugly. This can be done on top if someone cares to remove the
extra orq. For now it's a straight forward fix.
