[ Upstream commit 24cf2bc982ffe02aeffb4a3885c71751a2c7023b ]

Assume there's a multithreaded application that runs untrusted user
code. Each thread has its stack/code protected by a non-zero PKEY, and the
PKRU register is set up such that only that particular non-zero PKEY is
enabled. Each thread also sets up an alternate signal stack to handle
signals, which is protected by PKEY zero. The PKEYs man page documents that
the PKRU will be reset to init_pkru when the signal handler is invoked,
which means that PKEY zero access will be enabled.  But this reset happens
after the kernel attempts to push fpu state to the alternate stack, which
is not (yet) accessible by the kernel, which leads to a new SIGSEGV being
sent to the application, terminating it.

Enabling both the non-zero PKEY (for the thread) and PKEY zero in
userspace will not work for this use case. It cannot have the alt stack
writeable by all - the rationale here is that the code running in that
thread (using a non-zero PKEY) is untrusted and should not have access
to the alternate signal stack (that uses PKEY zero), to prevent the
return address of a function from being changed. The expectation is that
kernel should be able to set up the alternate signal stack and deliver
the signal to the application even if PKEY zero is explicitly disabled
by the application. The signal handler accessibility should not be
dictated by whatever PKRU value the thread sets up.

The PKRU register is managed by XSAVE, which means the sigframe contents
must match the register contents - which is not the case here. It's
required that the signal frame contains the user-defined PKRU value (so
that it is restored correctly from sigcontext) but the actual register must
be reset to init_pkru so that the alt stack is accessible and the signal
can be delivered to the application. It seems that the proper fix here
would be to remove PKRU from the XSAVE framework and manage it separately,
which is quite complicated. As a workaround, do this:

        orig_pkru = rdpkru();
        wrpkru(orig_pkru &amp; init_pkru_value);
        xsave_to_user_sigframe();
        put_user(pkru_sigframe_addr, orig_pkru)

In preparation for writing PKRU to sigframe, pass PKRU as an additional
parameter down the call chain from get_sigframe().

No functional change.

<title>x86/fpu: Avoid writing LBR bit to IA32_XSS unless supported</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ce9e83a066f4fae97e1f75a06e0f2b22f649d750</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2848ff28d180bd63a95da8e5dcbcdd76c1beeb7b upstream.

There are two distinct CPU features related to the use of XSAVES and LBR:
whether LBR is itself supported and whether XSAVES supports LBR. The LBR
subsystem correctly checks both in intel_pmu_arch_lbr_init(), but the
XSTATE subsystem does not.

The LBR bit is only removed from xfeatures_mask_independent when LBR is not
supported by the CPU, but there is no validation of XSTATE support.

If XSAVES does not support LBR the write to IA32_XSS causes a #GP fault,
leaving the state of IA32_XSS unchanged, i.e. zero. The fault is handled
with a warning and the boot continues.

Consequently the next XRSTORS which tries to restore supervisor state fails
with #GP because the RFBM has zero for all supervisor features, which does
not match the XCOMP_BV field.

As XFEATURE_MASK_FPSTATE includes supervisor features setting up the FPU
causes a #GP, which ends up in fpu_reset_from_exception_fixup(). That fails
due to the same problem resulting in recursive #GPs until the kernel runs
out of stack space and double faults.

Prevent this by storing the supported independent features in
fpu_kernel_cfg during XSTATE initialization and use that cached value for
retrieving the independent feature bits to be written into IA32_XSS.

Patch series "Unified cross-architecture kernel-mode FPU API", v4.

This series unifies the kernel-mode FPU API across several architectures
by wrapping the existing functions (where needed) in consistently-named
functions placed in a consistent header location, with mostly the same
semantics: they can be called from preemptible or non-preemptible task
context, and are not assumed to be reentrant.  Architectures are also
expected to provide CFLAGS adjustments for compiling FPU-dependent code. 
For the moment, SIMD/vector units are out of scope for this common API.

This allows us to remove the ifdeffery and duplicated Makefile logic at
each FPU user.  It then implements the common API on RISC-V, and converts
a couple of users to the new API: the AMDGPU DRM driver, and the FPU self
test.

The underlying goal of this series is to allow using newer AMD GPUs (e.g. 
Navi) on RISC-V boards such as SiFive's HiFive Unmatched.  Those GPUs need
CONFIG_DRM_AMD_DC_FP to initialize, which requires kernel-mode FPU
support.


This patch (of 15):

The include guard should match the filename, or it will conflict with
the newly-added asm/fpu.h.

<title>KVM: SEV: sync FPU and AVX state at LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA time</title>

SEV-ES allows passing custom contents for x87, SSE and AVX state into the VMSA.
Allow userspace to do that with the usual KVM_SET_XSAVE API and only mark
FPU contents as confidential after it has been copied and encrypted into
the VMSA.

Since the XSAVE state for AVX is the first, it does not need the
compacted-state handling of get_xsave_addr().  However, there are other
parts of XSAVE state in the VMSA that currently are not handled, and
the validation logic of get_xsave_addr() is pointless to duplicate
in KVM, so move get_xsave_addr() to public FPU API; it is really just
a facility to operate on XSAVE state and does not expose any internal
details of arch/x86/kernel/fpu.

It happens to work, but it's very very wrong, because our 'current'
macro is magic that is supposedly loading a stable value.

It just happens to be not quite stable enough and the compilers
re-load the value enough for this code to work.  But it's wrong.

The whole

        struct fpu *prev_fpu = &amp;prev-&gt;fpu;

thing in __switch_to() is pretty ugly. There's no reason why we
should look at that 'prev_fpu' pointer there, or pass it down.

And it only generates worse code, in how it loads 'current' when
__switch_to() has the right task pointers.

The attached patch not only cleans this up, it actually
generates better code too:

 (a) it removes one push/pop pair at entry/exit because there's one
     less register used (no 'current')

 (b) it removes that pointless load of 'current' because it just uses
     the right argument:

	-       movq    %gs:pcpu_hot(%rip), %r12
	-       testq   $16384, (%r12)
	+       testq   $16384, (%rdi)

<title>x86/fpu: Allow caller to constrain xfeatures when copying to uabi buffer</title>

<content type='text'>
Plumb an xfeatures mask into __copy_xstate_to_uabi_buf() so that KVM can
constrain which xfeatures are saved into the userspace buffer without
having to modify the user_xfeatures field in KVM's guest_fpu state.

KVM's ABI for KVM_GET_XSAVE{2} is that features that are not exposed to
guest must not show up in the effective xstate_bv field of the buffer.
Saving only the guest-supported xfeatures allows userspace to load the
saved state on a different host with a fewer xfeatures, so long as the
target host supports the xfeatures that are exposed to the guest.

KVM currently sets user_xfeatures directly to restrict KVM_GET_XSAVE{2} to
the set of guest-supported xfeatures, but doing so broke KVM's historical
ABI for KVM_SET_XSAVE, which allows userspace to load any xfeatures that
are supported by the *host*.
