ARM: 9197/1: spectre-bhb: fix loop8 sequence for Thumb2

2022-05-25T07:10:40Z

[ Upstream commit 3cfb3019979666bdf33a1010147363cf05e0f17b ] In Thumb2, 'b . + 4' produces a branch instruction that uses a narrow encoding, and so it does not jump to the following instruction as expected. So use W(b) instead. Fixes: 6c7cb60bff7a ("ARM: fix Thumb2 regression with Spectre BHB") Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

ARM: fix Thumb2 regression with Spectre BHB

2022-03-16T12:20:28Z

commit 6c7cb60bff7aec24b834343ff433125f469886a3 upstream. When building for Thumb2, the vectors make use of a local label. Sadly, the Spectre BHB code also uses a local label with the same number which results in the Thumb2 reference pointing at the wrong place. Fix this by changing the number used for the Spectre BHB local label.

ARM: Spectre-BHB workaround

2022-03-11T09:15:12Z

commit b9baf5c8c5c356757f4f9d8180b5e9d234065bc3 upstream. Workaround the Spectre BHB issues for Cortex-A15, Cortex-A57, Cortex-A72, Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A75. We also include Brahma B15 as well to be safe, which is affected by Spectre V2 in the same ways as Cortex-A15.

ARM: 9169/1: entry: fix Thumb2 bug in iWMMXt exception handling

2021-12-29T11:20:47Z

commit 8536a5ef886005bc443c2da9b842d69fd3d7647f upstream. The Thumb2 version of the FP exception handling entry code treats the register holding the CP number (R8) differently, resulting in the iWMMXT CP number check to be incorrect. Fix this by unifying the ARM and Thumb2 code paths, and switch the order of the additions of the TI_USED_CP offset and the shifted CP index.

ARM: uaccess: consolidate uaccess asm to asm/uaccess-asm.h

2020-06-03T06:19:34Z

[ Upstream commit 747ffc2fcf969eff9309d7f2d1d61cb8b9e1bb40 ] Consolidate the user access assembly code to asm/uaccess-asm.h. This moves the csdb, check_uaccess, uaccess_mask_range_ptr, uaccess_enable, uaccess_disable, uaccess_save, uaccess_restore macros, and creates two new ones for exception entry and exit - uaccess_entry and uaccess_exit. This makes the uaccess_save and uaccess_restore macros private to asm/uaccess-asm.h. Signed-off-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

ARM: Convert to GENERIC_IRQ_MULTI_HANDLER

2018-08-03T10:14:08Z

Converts the ARM interrupt code to use the recently added GENERIC_IRQ_MULTI_HANDLER, which is essentially just a copy of ARM's existhing MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER. The only changes are: * handle_arch_irq is now defined in a generic C file instead of an arm-specific assembly file. * handle_arch_irq is now marked as __ro_after_init.

Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables

2018-06-14T03:21:18Z

The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler supported. That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support directly. HOWEVER. It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file, the sane stack protector configuration would look like CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes, it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would disable it in the new config, resulting in: CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing. The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack protector option, but also the strong one. This does that by just removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users). This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes. The end result would generally look like this: CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler infrastructure, not the user selections.

ARM: probes: avoid adding kprobes to sensitive kernel-entry/exit code

2017-12-17T22:14:21Z

Avoid adding kprobes to any of the kernel entry/exit or startup assembly code, or code in the identity-mapped region. This code does not conform to the standard C conventions, which means that the expectations of the kprobes code is not forfilled. Placing kprobes at some of these locations results in the kernel trying to return to userspace addresses while retaining the CPU in kernel mode. Tested-by: Naresh Kamboju Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: align .data section

2017-08-14T15:22:55Z

Robert Jarzmik reports that his PXA25x system fails to boot with 4.12, failing at __flush_whole_cache in arch/arm/mm/proc-xscale.S:215: 0xc0019e20 <+0>: ldr r1, [pc, #788] 0xc0019e24 <+4>: ldr r0, [r1] <== here with r1 containing 0xc06f82cd, which is the address of "clean_addr". Examination of the System.map shows: c06f22c8 D user_pmd_table c06f22cc d __warned.19178 c06f22cd d clean_addr indicating that a .data.unlikely section has appeared just before the .data section from proc-xscale.S. According to objdump -h, it appears that our assembly files default their .data alignment to 2**0, which is bad news if the preceding .data section size is not power-of-2 aligned at link time. Add the appropriate .align directives to all assembly files in arch/arm that are missing them where we require an appropriate alignment.
