[ Upstream commit ef486bf448a057a6e2d50e40ae879f7add6585da ]

Commit b5efec00b671 ("powerpc/32s: Move KUEP locking/unlocking in C")
removed the 'isync' instruction after adding/removing NX bit in user
segments. The reasoning behind this change was that when setting the
NX bit we don't mind it taking effect with delay as the kernel never
executes text from userspace, and when clearing the NX bit this is
to return to userspace and then the 'rfi' should synchronise the
context.

However, it looks like on book3s/32 having a hash page table, at least
on the G3 processor, we get an unexpected fault from userspace, then
this is followed by something wrong in the verification of MSR_PR
at end of another interrupt.

This is fixed by adding back the removed isync() following update
of NX bit in user segment registers. Only do it for cores with an
hash table, as 603 cores don't exhibit that problem and the two isync
increase ./null_syscall selftest by 6 cycles on an MPC 832x.

First problem: unexpected WARN_ON() for mysterious PROTFAULT

[ Upstream commit 91bb30822a2e1d7900f9f42e9e92647a9015f979 ]

KUEP implements the update of user segment registers.

Move it into mmu-hash.h in order to use it from other places.

And inline kuep_lock() and kuep_unlock(). Inlining kuep_lock() is
important for system_call_exception(), otherwise system_call_exception()
has to save into stack the system call parameters that are used just
after, and doing that takes more instructions than kuep_lock() itself.

<title>powerpc/64: Fix the definition of the fixmap area</title>

<content type='text'>
At the time being, the fixmap area is defined at the top of
the address space or just below KASAN.

This definition is not valid for PPC64.

For PPC64, use the top of the I/O space.

Because of circular dependencies, it is not possible to include
asm/fixmap.h in asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h , so define a fixed size
AREA at the top of the I/O space for fixmap and ensure during
build that the size is big enough.

<title>powerpc/32s: Define a MODULE area below kernel text all the time</title>

<content type='text'>
On book3s/32, the segment below kernel text is used for module
allocation when CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is defined.

In order to benefit from the powerpc specific module_alloc()
function which allocate modules with 32 Mbytes from
end of kernel text, use that segment below PAGE_OFFSET at all time.

<content type='text'>
In the past we had a fallback definition for _PAGE_KERNEL_ROX, but we
removed that in commit d82fd29c5a8c ("powerpc/mm: Distribute platform
specific PAGE and PMD flags and definitions") and added definitions
for each MMU family.

However we missed adding a definition for 64s, which was not really a
bug because it's currently not used.

But we'd like to use PAGE_KERNEL_ROX in a future patch so add a
definition now.

<title>powerpc/64s: Fix pte update for kernel memory on radix</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=b8b2f37cf632434456182e9002d63cbc4cccc50c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b8b2f37cf632434456182e9002d63cbc4cccc50c</id>
<content type='text'>
When adding a PTE a ptesync is needed to order the update of the PTE
with subsequent accesses otherwise a spurious fault may be raised.

radix__set_pte_at() does not do this for performance gains. For
non-kernel memory this is not an issue as any faults of this kind are
corrected by the page fault handler. For kernel memory these faults
are not handled. The current solution is that there is a ptesync in
flush_cache_vmap() which should be called when mapping from the
vmalloc region.

However, map_kernel_page() does not call flush_cache_vmap(). This is
troublesome in particular for code patching with Strict RWX on radix.
In do_patch_instruction() the page frame that contains the instruction
to be patched is mapped and then immediately patched. With no ordering
or synchronization between setting up the PTE and writing to the page
it is possible for faults.

As the code patching is done using __put_user_asm_goto() the resulting
fault is obscured - but using a normal store instead it can be seen:

  BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on write at 0xc008000008f24a3c

This results in the kind of issue reported here:
  https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/15AC5B0E-A221-4B8C-9039-FA96B8EF7C88@lca.pw/

Chris Riedl suggested a reliable way to reproduce the issue:
  $ mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
  $ (while true; do echo function &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer ; echo nop &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer ; done) &amp;

Turning ftrace on and off does a large amount of code patching which
in usually less then 5min will crash giving a trace like:

In preparation of porting PPC32 to C syscall entry/exit,
create C version of kuap_save_and_lock() and kuap_user_restore() and
kuap_kernel_restore() and kuap_assert_locked() and
kuap_get_and_assert_locked() on book3s/32.

In preparation of porting powerpc32 to C syscall entry/exit,
rename kuap_check_amr() and kuap_get_and_check_amr() as
kuap_assert_locked() and kuap_get_and_assert_locked(), and move in the
generic asm/kup.h the stub for when CONFIG_PPC_KUAP is not selected.

This can be done in C, do it.

Unrolling the loop gains approx. 15% performance.

From now on, prepare_transfer_to_handler() is only for
interrupts from kernel.
