[ Upstream commit 35561bab768977c9e05f1f1a9bc00134c85f3e28 ]

The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during
compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to
generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can
happen.

For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h,
which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h
first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c
and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first,
it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included
by it.

In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular
dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the
COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h".

And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this
purpose.

<title>arm64/mm: Re-organise setting up FEAT_S1PIE registers PIRE0_EL1 and PIR_EL1</title>

mov_q cannot really move PIE_E[0|1] macros into a general purpose register
as expected if those macro constants contain some 128 bit layout elements,
that are required for D128 page tables. The primary issue is that for D128,
PIE_E[0|1] are defined in terms of 128-bit types with shifting and masking,
which the assembler can't accommodate.

Instead pre-calculate these PIRE0_EL1/PIR_EL1 constants into asm-offsets.h
based PIE_E0_ASM/PIE_E1_ASM which can then be used in arch/arm64/mm/proc.S.

While here also drop PTE_MAYBE_NG/PTE_MAYBE_SHARED assembly overrides which
are not required any longer, as the compiler toolchains are smart enough to
compute both the PIE_[E0|E1]_ASM constants in all scenarios.

Use ftrace_regs instead of fgraph_ret_regs for tracing return value
on function_graph tracer because of simplifying the callback interface.

The CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RETVAL is also replaced by
CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FREGS.

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Restructure the function graph shadow stack to prepare it for use
   with kretprobes

   With the goal of merging the shadow stack logic of function graph and
   kretprobes, some more restructuring of the function shadow stack is
   required.

   Move out function graph specific fields from the fgraph
   infrastructure and store it on the new stack variables that can pass
   data from the entry callback to the exit callback.

   Hopefully, with this change, the merge of kretprobes to use fgraph
   shadow stacks will be ready by the next merge window.

 - Make shadow stack 4k instead of using PAGE_SIZE.

   Some architectures have very large PAGE_SIZE values which make its
   use for shadow stacks waste a lot of memory.

 - Give shadow stacks its own kmem cache.

   When function graph is started, every task on the system gets a
   shadow stack. In the future, shadow stacks may not be 4K in size.
   Have it have its own kmem cache so that whatever size it becomes will
   still be efficient in allocations.

 - Initialize profiler graph ops as it will be needed for new updates to
   fgraph

 - Convert to use guard(mutex) for several ftrace and fgraph functions

 - Add more comments and documentation

 - Show function return address in function graph tracer

   Add an option to show the caller of a function at each entry of the
   function graph tracer, similar to what the function tracer does.

 - Abstract out ftrace_regs from being used directly like pt_regs

   ftrace_regs was created to store a partial pt_regs. It holds only the
   registers and stack information to get to the function arguments and
   return values. On several archs, it is simply a wrapper around
   pt_regs. But some users would access ftrace_regs directly to get the
   pt_regs which will not work on all archs. Make ftrace_regs an
   abstract structure that requires all access to its fields be through
   accessor functions.

 - Show how long it takes to do function code modifications

   When code modification for function hooks happen, it always had the
   time recorded in how long it took to do the conversion. But this
   value was never exported. Recently the code was touched due to new
   ROX modification handling that caused a large slow down in doing the
   modifications and had a significant impact on boot times.

   Expose the timings in the dyn_ftrace_total_info file. This file was
   created a while ago to show information about memory usage and such
   to implement dynamic function tracing. It's also an appropriate file
   to store the timings of this modification as well. This will make it
   easier to see the impact of changes to code modification on boot up
   timings.

 - Other clean ups and small fixes

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Support for running Linux in a protected VM under the Arm
   Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA)

 - Guarded Control Stack user-space support. Current patches follow the
   x86 ABI of implicitly creating a shadow stack on clone(). Subsequent
   patches (already on the list) will add support for clone3() allowing
   finer-grained control of the shadow stack size and placement from
   libc

 - AT_HWCAP3 support (not running out of HWCAP2 bits yet but we are
   getting close with the upcoming dpISA support)

 - Other arch features:

     - In-kernel use of the memcpy instructions, FEAT_MOPS (previously
       only exposed to user; uaccess support not merged yet)

     - MTE: hugetlbfs support and the corresponding kselftests

     - Optimise CRC32 using the PMULL instructions

     - Support for FEAT_HAFT enabling ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG

     - Optimise the kernel TLB flushing to use the range operations

     - POE/pkey (permission overlays): further cleanups after bringing
       the signal handler in line with the x86 behaviour for 6.12

 - arm64 perf updates:

     - Support for the NXP i.MX91 PMU in the existing IMX driver

     - Support for Ampere SoCs in the Designware PCIe PMU driver

     - Support for Marvell's 'PEM' PCIe PMU present in the 'Odyssey' SoC

     - Support for Samsung's 'Mongoose' CPU PMU

     - Support for PMUv3.9 finer-grained userspace counter access
       control

     - Switch back to platform_driver::remove() now that it returns
       'void'

     - Add some missing events for the CXL PMU driver

 - Miscellaneous arm64 fixes/cleanups:

     - Page table accessors cleanup: type updates, drop unused macros,
       reorganise arch_make_huge_pte() and clean up pte_mkcont(), sanity
       check addresses before runtime P4D/PUD folding

     - Command line override for ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.ECV (advertising the
       FEAT_ECV for the generic timers) allowing Linux to boot with
       firmware deployments that don't set SCTLR_EL3.ECVEn

     - ACPI/arm64: tighten the check for the array of platform timer
       structures and adjust the error handling procedure in
       gtdt_parse_timer_block()

     - Optimise the cache flush for the uprobes xol slot (skip if no
       change) and other uprobes/kprobes cleanups

     - Fix the context switching of tpidrro_el0 when kpti is enabled

     - Dynamic shadow call stack fixes

     - Sysreg updates

     - Various arm64 kselftest improvements

<title>arm64: stacktrace: unwind exception boundaries</title>
<updated>2024-10-17T17:06:25Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=c2c6b27b5aa14fa28e3f455f697ccd2e0e75d773'/>
<id>urn:sha1:c2c6b27b5aa14fa28e3f455f697ccd2e0e75d773</id>
<content type='text'>
When arm64's stack unwinder encounters an exception boundary, it uses
the pt_regs::stackframe created by the entry code, which has a copy of
the PC and FP at the time the exception was taken. The unwinder doesn't
know anything about pt_regs, and reports the PC from the stackframe, but
does not report the LR.

The LR is only guaranteed to contain the return address at function call
boundaries, and can be used as a scratch register at other times, so the
LR at an exception boundary may or may not be a legitimate return
address. It would be useful to report the LR value regardless, as it can
be helpful when debugging, and in future it will be helpful for reliable
stacktrace support.

This patch changes the way we unwind across exception boundaries,
allowing both the PC and LR to be reported. The entry code creates a
frame_record_meta structure embedded within pt_regs, which the unwinder
uses to find the pt_regs. The unwinder can then extract pt_regs::pc and
pt_regs::lr as two separate unwind steps before continuing with a
regular walk of frame records.

When a PC is unwound from pt_regs::lr, dump_backtrace() will log this
with an "L" marker so that it can be identified easily. For example,
an unwind across an exception boundary will appear as follows:

|  el1h_64_irq+0x6c/0x70
|  _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x10/0x60 (P)
|  __aarch64_insn_write+0x6c/0x90 (L)
|  aarch64_insn_patch_text_nosync+0x28/0x80

... with a (P) entry for pt_regs::pc, and an (L) entry for pt_regs:lr.

Note that the LR may be stale at the point of the exception, for example,
shortly after a return:

|  el1h_64_irq+0x6c/0x70
|  default_idle_call+0x34/0x180 (P)
|  default_idle_call+0x28/0x180 (L)
|  do_idle+0x204/0x268

... where the LR points a few instructions before the current PC.

This plays nicely with all the other unwind metadata tracking. With the
ftrace_graph profiler enabled globally, and kretprobes installed on
generic_handle_domain_irq() and do_interrupt_handler(), a backtrace triggered
by magic-sysrq + L reports:

| Call trace:

<title>arm64: pt_regs: rename "pmr_save" -&gt; "pmr"</title>

The pt_regs::pmr_save field is weirdly named relative to all other
pt_regs fields, with a '_save' suffix that doesn't make anything clearer
and only leads to more typing to access the field.

Remove the '_save' suffix.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<content type='text'>
Our idmap is becoming too big, to the point where it doesn't fit in
a 4kB page anymore.

There are some low-hanging fruits though, such as the el2_init_state
horror that is expanded 3 times in the kernel. Let's at least limit
ourselves to two copies, which makes the kernel link again.

At some point, we'll have to have a better way of doing this.

The PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET definition was added in commit:

  24534b3511828c66 ("arm64: assembler: add macros to conditionally yield the NEON under PREEMPT")

... but hasn't been used since commit:

  3931261ecf46151a ("arm64: fpsimd: Bring cond_yield asm macro in line with new rules")

Remove PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET.
