powerpc/inst: Refactor PPC32 and PPC64 versions

2021-06-16T14:09:06Z

ppc_inst() ppc_inst_prefixed() ppc_inst_swab() can easily be made common to both PPC32 and PPC64. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/d54c63dcac6d190e1cc0d2fe3259d6e621928cdf.1621516826.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu

powerpc: Don't use 'struct ppc_inst' to reference instruction location

2021-06-16T14:09:00Z

'struct ppc_inst' is an internal representation of an instruction, but in-memory instructions are and will remain a table of 'u32' forever. Replace all 'struct ppc_inst *' used for locating an instruction in memory by 'u32 *'. This removes a lot of undue casts to 'struct ppc_inst *'. It also helps locating ab-use of 'struct ppc_inst' dereference.

powerpc/inst: Avoid pointer dereferencing in ppc_inst_equal()

2021-06-16T13:35:57Z

Avoid casting/dereferencing ppc_inst() as u64* , check each member of the struct when relevant. And remove the 0xff initialisation of the suffix for non prefixed instruction. An instruction with 0xff as a suffix might be invalid, but still is a prefixed instruction and has to be considered as this.

powerpc/inst: Improve readability of get_user_instr() and friends

2021-06-16T13:35:30Z

Remove unneeded line splits. And remove unneeded local variable initialisation. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/fb097fda78cc6852905ef00f8f7bf371b6cc66f7.1621516826.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu

powerpc/inst: Reduce casts in get_user_instr()

2021-06-16T13:35:10Z

Declare __gui_ptr as 'u32 *' instead of casting it at each use to 'unsigned int *' (which is an equivalent type).

powerpc/inst: Fix sparse detection on get_user_instr()

2021-06-15T14:16:49Z

get_user_instr() lacks sparse detection for the __user tag. This is because __gui_ptr is assigned with a cast. Fix that by adding a __chk_user_ptr() Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/0320e5b41a794fd456ab8c5993bbfadcf9e1d8b4.1621516826.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu

powerpc: Rename probe_kernel_read_inst()

2021-04-21T12:52:33Z

When probe_kernel_read_inst() was created, it was to mimic probe_kernel_read() function. Since then, probe_kernel_read() has been renamed copy_from_kernel_nofault(). Rename probe_kernel_read_inst() into copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault().

powerpc: Make probe_kernel_read_inst() common to PPC32 and PPC64

2021-04-21T12:52:33Z

We have two independant versions of probe_kernel_read_inst(), one for PPC32 and one for PPC64. The PPC32 is identical to the first part of the PPC64 version. The remaining part of PPC64 version is not relevant for PPC32, but not contradictory, so we can easily have a common function with the PPC64 part opted out via a IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PPC64). The only need is to add a version of ppc_inst_prefix() for PPC32.

powerpc: Remove probe_user_read_inst()

2021-04-21T12:52:33Z

Its name comes from former probe_user_read() function. That function is now called copy_from_user_nofault(). probe_user_read_inst() uses copy_from_user_nofault() to read only a few bytes. It is suboptimal. It does the same as get_user_inst() but in addition disables page faults. But on the other hand, it is not used for the time being. So remove it for now. If one day it is really needed, we can give it a new name more in line with today's naming, and implement it using get_user_inst() Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/5f6f82572242a59bfee1e19a71194d8f7ef5fca4.1618405715.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu

powerpc/inst: ppc_inst_as_u64() becomes ppc_inst_as_ulong()

2021-04-21T12:52:32Z

In order to simplify use on PPC32, change ppc_inst_as_u64() into ppc_inst_as_ulong() that returns the 32 bits instruction on PPC32. Will be used when porting OPTPROBES to PPC32.
