arm64: Treat ESR_ELx as a 64-bit register

2022-04-29T18:26:27Z

In the initial release of the ARM Architecture Reference Manual for ARMv8-A, the ESR_ELx registers were defined as 32-bit registers. This changed in 2018 with version D.a (ARM DDI 0487D.a) of the architecture, when they became 64-bit registers, with bits [63:32] defined as RES0. In version G.a, a new field was added to ESR_ELx, ISS2, which covers bits [36:32]. This field is used when the Armv8.7 extension FEAT_LS64 is implemented. As a result of the evolution of the register width, Linux stores it as both a 64-bit value and a 32-bit value, which hasn't affected correctness so far as Linux only uses the lower 32 bits of the register. Make the register type consistent and always treat it as 64-bit wide. The register is redefined as an "unsigned long", which is an unsigned double-word (64-bit quantity) for the LP64 machine (aapcs64 [1], Table 1, page 14). The type was chosen because "unsigned int" is the most frequent type for ESR_ELx and because FAR_ELx, which is used together with ESR_ELx in exception handling, is also declared as "unsigned long". The 64-bit type also makes adding support for architectural features that use fields above bit 31 easier in the future. The KVM hypervisor will receive a similar update in a subsequent patch.

arm64: hw_breakpoint: Don't invoke overflow handler on uaccess watchpoints

2020-06-18T10:10:00Z

Unprivileged memory accesses generated by the so-called "translated" instructions (e.g. STTR) at EL1 can cause EL0 watchpoints to fire unexpectedly if kernel debugging is enabled. In such cases, the hw_breakpoint logic will invoke the user overflow handler which will typically raise a SIGTRAP back to the current task. This is futile when returning back to the kernel because (a) the signal won't have been delivered and (b) userspace can't handle the thing anyway. Avoid invoking the user overflow handler for watchpoints triggered by kernel uaccess routines, and instead single-step over the faulting instruction as we would if no overflow handler had been installed. (Fixes tag identifies the introduction of unprivileged memory accesses, which exposed this latent bug in the hw_breakpoint code) Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: James Morse Fixes: 57f4959bad0a ("arm64: kernel: Add support for User Access Override") Reported-by: Luis Machado Signed-off-by: Will Deacon
