* powerpc/signal: Report minimum signal frame size to userspace via AT_MINSIGSTKSZNicholas Piggin2022-05-191-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement the AT_MINSIGSTKSZ AUXV entry, allowing userspace to dynamically size stack allocations in a manner forward-compatible with new processor state saved in the signal frame For now these statically find the maximum signal frame size rather than doing any runtime testing of features to minimise the size. glibc 2.34 will take advantage of this, as will applications that use use _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ and _SC_SIGSTKSZ.

* powerpc/64/sycall: Implement syscall entry/exit logic in CNicholas Piggin2020-04-011-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | System call entry and particularly exit code is beyond the limit of what is reasonable to implement in asm. This conversion moves all conditional branches out of the asm code, except for the case that all GPRs should be restored at exit. Null syscall test is about 5% faster after this patch, because the exit work is handled under local_irq_disable, and the hard mask and pending interrupt replay is handled after that, which avoids games with MSR. mpe: Includes subsequent fixes from Nick: This fixes 4 issues caught by TM selftests. First was a tm-syscall bug that hit due to tabort_syscall being called after interrupts were reconciled (in a subsequent patch), which led to interrupts being enabled before tabort_syscall was called. Rather than going through an un-reconciling interrupts for the return, I just go back to putting the test early in asm, the C-ification of that wasn't a big win anyway. Second is the syscall return _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK check would go into an infinite loop if _TIF_RESTORE_TM became set. The asm code uses _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to brach to slowpath which includes restore_tm_state. Third is system call return was not calling restore_tm_state, I missed this completely (alhtough it's in the return from interrupt C conversion because when the asm syscall code encountered problems it would branch to the interrupt return code. Fourth is MSR_VEC missing from restore_math, which was caught by tm-unavailable selftest taking an unexpected facility unavailable interrupt when testing VSX unavailble exception with MSR.FP=1 MSR.VEC=1. Fourth case also has a fixup in a subsequent patch.

* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

* powerpc: signals: Stop using current in signal codeCyril Bur2016-10-041-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Much of the signal code takes a pt_regs on which it operates. Over time the signal code has needed to know more about the thread than what pt_regs can supply, this information is obtained as needed by using 'current'. This approach is not strictly incorrect however it does mean that there is now a hard requirement that the pt_regs being passed around does belong to current, this is never checked. A safer approach is for the majority of the signal functions to take a task_struct from which they can obtain pt_regs and any other information they need. The caveat that the task_struct they are passed must be current doesn't go away but can more easily be checked for. Functions called from outside powerpc signal code are passed a pt_regs and they can confirm that the pt_regs is that of current and pass current to other functions, furthurmore, powerpc signal functions can check that the task_struct they are passed is the same as current avoiding possible corruption of current (or the task they are passed) if this assertion ever fails.

* powerpc/tm: Fix userspace stack corruption on signal delivery for active ↵Michael Neuling2013-06-011-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | transactions When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.
