x86/entry: Move C entry and exit code to arch/x86/entry/common.c

2015-07-07T08:59:05Z

The entry and exit C helpers were confusingly scattered between ptrace.c and signal.c, even though they aren't specific to ptrace or signal handling. Move them together in a new file. This change just moves code around. It doesn't change anything.

x86/fpu: Factor out fpu/regset.h from fpu/internal.h

2015-05-19T13:48:06Z

Only a few places use the regset definitions, so factor them out. Also fix related header dependency assumptions. Cc: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Dave Hansen Cc: Fenghua Yu Cc: H.

x86/fpu: Split out fpu/signal.h from fpu/internal.h for signal frame handling functions

2015-05-19T13:48:05Z

Most of the FPU does not use them, so split it out and include them in signal.c and ia32_signal.c Also fix header file dependency assumption in fpu/core.c.

x86/fpu: Rename regset FPU register accessors

2015-05-19T13:47:35Z

Rename regset accessors to prefix them with 'regset_', because we want to start using the 'fpregs_active' name elsewhere.

x86/fpu: Rename fpu-internal.h to fpu/internal.h

2015-05-19T13:47:31Z

This unifies all the FPU related header files under a unified, hiearchical naming scheme: - asm/fpu/types.h: FPU related data types, needed for 'struct task_struct', widely included in almost all kernel code, and hence kept as small as possible. - asm/fpu/api.h: FPU related 'public' methods exported to other subsystems. - asm/fpu/internal.h: FPU subsystem internal methods - asm/fpu/xsave.h: XSAVE support internal methods (Also standardize the header guard in asm/fpu/internal.h.)

x86/fpu: Fix header file dependencies of fpu-internal.h

2015-05-19T13:47:16Z

Fix a minor header file dependency bug in asm/fpu-internal.h: it relies on i387.h but does not include it. All users of fpu-internal.h included it explicitly. Also remove unnecessary includes, to reduce compilation time. This also makes it easier to use it as a standalone header file for FPU internals, such as an upcoming C module in arch/x86/kernel/fpu/.

x86/asm/entry: Change all 'user_mode_vm()' calls to 'user_mode()'

2015-03-23T10:14:17Z

user_mode_vm() and user_mode() are now the same. Change all callers of user_mode_vm() to user_mode(). The next patch will remove the definition of user_mode_vm.

x86/ptrace: Remove checks for TIF_IA32 when changing CS and SS

2015-02-25T07:27:49Z

The ability for modified CS and/or SS to be useful has nothing to do with TIF_IA32. Similarly, if there's an exploit involving changing CS or SS, it's exploitable with or without a TIF_IA32 check. So just delete the check.

x86, syscall: Fix _TIF_NOHZ handling in syscall_trace_enter_phase1

2014-11-20T22:01:53Z

TIF_NOHZ is 19 (i.e. _TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE | _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME | _TIF_SINGLESTEP), not (1<<19). This code is involved in Dave's trinity lockup, but I don't see why it would cause any of the problems he's seeing, except inadvertently by causing a different path through entry_64.S's syscall handling.
