The 'sysret' fastpath does not correctly restore even all regular
registers, much less any segment registers or reflags values. That is
very much part of why it's faster than 'iret'.
Normally that isn't a problem, because the normal ptrace() interface
catches the process using the signal handler infrastructure, which
always returns with an iret.
However, some paths can get caught using ptrace_event() instead of the
signal path, and for those we need to make sure that we aren't going to
return to user space using 'sysret'. Otherwise the modifications that
may have been done to the register set by the tracer wouldn't
necessarily take effect.
Fix it by forcing IRET path by setting TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME from
arch_ptrace_stop_needed() which is invoked from ptrace_stop().

We import the CPL via SS.DPL since ae9fedc793. However, we fail to
export it this way so far. This caused spurious guest crashes, e.g. of
Linux when accessing the vmport from guest user space which triggered
register saving/restoring to/from host user space.

Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
"A pile of fixes related to the VDSO, EFI and 32-bit badsys handling.
It turns out that removing the section headers from the VDSO breaks
gdb, so this puts back most of them. A very simple typo broke
rt_sigreturn on some versions of glibc, with obviously disastrous
results. The rest is pretty much fixes for the corresponding fallout.
The EFI fixes fixes an arithmetic overflow on 32-bit systems and
quiets some build warnings.
Finally, when invoking an invalid system call number on x86-32, we
bypass a bunch of handling, which can make the audit code oops"

vdso2c was checking for various types of relocations to detect when
the vdso had undefined symbols or was otherwise dependent on
relocation at load time. Undefined symbols in the vdso would fail if
accessed at runtime, and certain implementation errors (e.g. branch
profiling or incorrect symbol visibilities) could result in data
access through the GOT that requires relocations. This could be
as simple as:
extern char foo;
return foo;
Without some kind of visibility control, the compiler would assume
that foo could be interposed at load time and would generate a
relocation.
x86-64 and x32 (as opposed to i386) use explicit-addent (RELA) instead
of implicit-addent (REL) relocations for data access, and vdso2c
forgot to detect those.
Whether these bad relocations would actually fail at runtime depends
on what the linker sticks in the unrelocated references. Nonetheless,
these relocations have no business existing in the vDSO and should be
fixed rather than silently ignored.
This error could trigger on some configurations due to branch
profiling. The previous patch fixed that.

DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING turns off branch profiling (i.e. a
redefinition of 'if'). Branch profiling depends on a bunch of
kernel-internal symbols and generates extra output sections, none of
which are useful or functional in the vDSO.
It's currently turned off for vclock_gettime.c, but vgetcpu.c also
triggers branch profiling, so just turn it off in the makefile.
This fixes the build on some configurations: the vdso could contain
undefined symbols, and the fake section table overflowed due to
ftrace's added sections.

Sometimes it is preferred not to use the trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
routine when one wants to avoid capturing a back trace for current. For
instance if one was previously captured recently.
This patch provides a new routine namely
trigger_allbutself_cpu_backtrace() which offers the flexibility to issue
an NMI to every cpu but current and capture a back trace accordingly.
Patch x86 and sparc to support new routine.

The bad syscall nr paths are their own incomprehensible route
through the entry control flow. Rearrange them to work just like
syscalls that return -ENOSYS.
This fixes an OOPS in the audit code when fast-path auditing is
enabled and sysenter gets a bad syscall nr (CVE-2014-4508).

With this change, doing 'make vdso_install' and telling gdb:
set debug-file-directory /lib/modules/KVER/vdso
will enable vdso debugging with symbols. This is useful for
testing, but kernel RPM builds will probably want to manually delete
these symlinks or otherwise do something sensible when they strip
the vdso/*.so files.
If ld does not support --build-id, then the symlinks will not be
created.
Note that kernel packagers that use vdso_install may need to adjust
their packaging scripts to accomdate this change. For example,
Fedora's scripts create build-id symlinks themselves in a different
location, so the spec should probably be updated to remove the
symlinks created by make vdso_install.

.data doesn't need to be separate from .rodata: they're both readonly.
.altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement aren't needed by anything
except vdso2c; strip them from the final image.
While we're at it, rather than aligning the actual executable text,
just shove some unused-at-runtime data in between real data and
text.
My vdso image is still above 4k, but I'm disinclined to try to
trim it harder for 3.16. For future trimming, I suspect that these
sections could be moved to later in the file and dropped from
the in-memory image:
.gnu.version and .gnu.version_d (this may lose versions in gdb)
.eh_frame (should be harmless)
.eh_frame_hdr (I'm not really sure)
.hash (AFAIK nothing needs this section header)

Fully stripping the vDSO has other unfortunate side effects:
- binutils is unable to find ELF notes without a SHT_NOTE section.
- Even elfutils has trouble: it can find ELF notes without a section
table at all, but if a section table is present, it won't look for
PT_NOTE.
- gdb wants section names to match between stripped DSOs and their
symbols; otherwise it will corrupt symbol addresses.
We're also breaking the rules: section 0 is supposed to be SHT_NULL.
Fix these problems by building a better fake section table. While
we're at it, we might as well let buggy Go versions keep working well
by giving the SHT_DYNSYM entry the correct size.
This is a bit unfortunate: it adds quite a bit of size to the vdso
image.
If/when binutils improves and the improved versions become widespread,
it would be worth considering dropping most of this.

The Go runtime has a buggy vDSO parser that currently segfaults.
This writes an empty SHT_DYNSYM entry that causes Go's runtime to
malfunction by thinking that the vDSO is empty rather than
malfunctioning by running off the end and segfaulting.
This affects x86-64 only as far as we know, so we do not need this for
the i386 and x32 vdsos.

The macro 'A' used in internal BPF interpreter:
#define A regs[insn->a_reg]
was easily confused with the name of classic BPF register 'A', since
'A' would mean two different things depending on context.
This patch is trying to clean up the naming and clarify its usage in the
following way:
- A and X are names of two classic BPF registers
- BPF_REG_A denotes internal BPF register R0 used to map classic register A
in internal BPF programs generated from classic
- BPF_REG_X denotes internal BPF register R7 used to map classic register X
in internal BPF programs generated from classic
- internal BPF instruction format:
struct sock_filter_int {
__u8 code; /* opcode */
__u8 dst_reg:4; /* dest register */
__u8 src_reg:4; /* source register */
__s16 off; /* signed offset */
__s32 imm; /* signed immediate constant */
};
- BPF_X/BPF_K is 1 bit used to encode source operand of instruction
In classic:
BPF_X - means use register X as source operand
BPF_K - means use 32-bit immediate as source operand
In internal:
BPF_X - means use 'src_reg' register as source operand
BPF_K - means use 32-bit immediate as source operand

One final use of the macros from <endian.h> which are not available on
older system. In this case we had one sole case of *writing* a
littleendian number, but the number is SHN_UNDEF which is the constant
zero, so rather than dealing with the general case of littleendian
puts here, just document that the constant is zero and be done with
it.

commit 7d453eee36ae ("x86/efi: Wire up CONFIG_EFI_MIXED") introduced a
regression for the functionality to load kernels above 4G. The relevant
(incorrect) reasoning behind this change can be seen in the commit
message,
"The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits."
This is obviously bogus since 32-bit EFI loaders will never place the
kernel above the 4G mark. So this restriction is entirely unnecessary.
But things are worse than that - since we want to encourage people to
always compile with CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y so that their kernels work out of
the box for both 32-bit and 64-bit firmware, commit 7d453eee36ae
effectively disables XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G completely.
Remove the overzealous and superfluous restriction and restore the
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G functionality.

There are no standard functions for littleendian data (unlike
bigendian data.) Thus, use <tools/le_byteshift.h> to access
littleendian data members. Those are fairly inefficient, but it
doesn't matter for this purpose (and can be optimized later.) This
avoids portability problems.
