arm64: kgdb: Set PSTATE.SS to 1 to re-enable single-step

2023-05-17T09:13:10Z

[ Upstream commit af6c0bd59f4f3ad5daad2f7b777954b1954551d5 ] Currently only the first attempt to single-step has any effect. After that all further stepping remains "stuck" at the same program counter value. Refer to the ARM Architecture Reference Manual (ARM DDI 0487E.a) D2.12, PSTATE.SS=1 should be set at each step before transferring the PE to the 'Active-not-pending' state. The problem here is PSTATE.SS=1 is not set since the second single-step. After the first single-step, the PE transferes to the 'Inactive' state, with PSTATE.SS=0 and MDSCR.SS=1, thus PSTATE.SS won't be set to 1 due to kernel_active_single_step()=true. Then the PE transferes to the 'Active-pending' state when ERET and returns to the debugger by step exception.

arm64: Use test_tsk_thread_flag() for checking TIF_SINGLESTEP

arm64: ptrace: Override SPSR.SS when single-stepping is enabled

2020-07-22T07:32:12Z

commit 3a5a4366cecc25daa300b9a9174f7fdd352b9068 upstream. Luis reports that, when reverse debugging with GDB, single-step does not function as expected on arm64: | I've noticed, under very specific conditions, that a PTRACE_SINGLESTEP | request by GDB won't execute the underlying instruction. As a consequence, | the PC doesn't move, but we return a SIGTRAP just like we would for a | regular successful PTRACE_SINGLESTEP request. The underlying problem is that when the CPU register state is restored as part of a reverse step, the SPSR.SS bit is cleared and so the hardware single-step state can transition to the "active-pending" state, causing an unexpected step exception to be taken immediately if a step operation is attempted. In hindsight, we probably shouldn't have exposed SPSR.SS in the pstate accessible by the GPR regset, but it's a bit late for that now. Instead, simply prevent userspace from configuring the bit to a value which is inconsistent with the TIF_SINGLESTEP state for the task being traced.

arm64: Use arm64_force_sig_info instead of force_sig_info

2018-03-06T18:52:32Z

Using arm64_force_sig_info means that printing messages about unhandled signals is dealt with for us, so use that in preference to force_sig_info and remove any homebrew printing code. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

signal: Don't use structure initializers for struct siginfo

2018-01-23T01:07:08Z

The siginfo structure has all manners of holes with the result that a structure initializer is not guaranteed to initialize all of the bits. As we have to copy the structure to userspace don't even try to use a structure initializer. Instead use clear_siginfo followed by initializing selected fields. This gives a guarantee that uninitialized kernel memory is not copied to userspace. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

arm64: introduce an order for exceptions

2017-11-02T15:55:41Z

Currently SError is always masked in the kernel. To support RAS exceptions using SError on hardware with the v8.2 RAS Extensions we need to unmask SError as much as possible. Let's define an order for masking and unmasking exceptions. 'dai' is memorable and effectively what we have today. Disabling debug exceptions should cause all other exceptions to be masked. Masking SError should mask irq, but not disable debug exceptions. Masking irqs has no side effects for other flags. Keeping to this order makes it easier for entry.S to know which exceptions should be unmasked. FIQ is never expected, but we mask it when we mask debug exceptions, and unmask it at all other times. Given masking debug exceptions masks everything, we don't need macros to save/restore that bit independently. Remove them and switch the last caller over to use the daif calls.

arm64: fix endianness annotation for debug-monitors.c

2017-06-29T10:02:41Z

Here we're reading thumb or ARM instructions, which are always stored in memory in little-endian order. These values are thus correctly converted to native order but the intermediate value should be annotated as for little-endian values. Fix this by declaring the intermediate var as __le32 or __le16.

arm64: cpufeature: Make ID reg accessor naming less counterintuitive

2017-04-04T15:55:41Z

read_system_reg() can readily be confused with read_sysreg(), whereas these are really quite different in their meaning. This patches attempts to reduce the ambiguity be reserving "sysreg" for the actual system register accessors. read_system_reg() is instead renamed to read_sanitised_ftr_reg(), to make it more obvious that the Linux-defined sanitised feature register cache is being accessed here, not the underlying architectural system registers. cpufeature.c's internal __raw_read_system_reg() function is renamed in line with its actual purpose: a form of read_sysreg() that indexes on (non-compiletime-constant) encoding rather than symbolic register name.
