[ Upstream commit d85be8a49e733dcd23674aa6202870d54bf5600d ]

The placeholder for instruction selection should use the second
argument's operand, which is %1, not %0. This could generate incorrect
assembly code if the memory addressing of operand %0 is a different
form from that of operand %1.

Also remove the %Un placeholder because having %Un placeholders
for two operands which are based on the same local var (ptep) doesn't
make much sense. By the way, it doesn't change the current behaviour
because "&lt;&gt;" constraint is missing for the associated "=m".

[chleroy: revised commit log iaw segher's comments and removed %U0]

<title>powerpc/feature: Fix CPU_FTRS_ALWAYS by removing CPU_FTRS_GENERIC_32</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9314c996c137fbe33347922946f41143e6ff2794</id>

[ Upstream commit 78665179e569c7e1fe102fb6c21d0f5b6951f084 ]

On 8xx, we get the following features:

[    0.000000] cpu_features      = 0x0000000000000100
[    0.000000]   possible        = 0x0000000000000120
[    0.000000]   always          = 0x0000000000000000

This is not correct. As CONFIG_PPC_8xx is mutually exclusive with all
other configurations, the three lines should be equal.

The problem is due to CPU_FTRS_GENERIC_32 which is taken when
CONFIG_BOOK3S_32 is NOT selected. This CPU_FTRS_GENERIC_32 is
pointless because there is no generic configuration supporting
all 32 bits but book3s/32.

Remove this pointless generic features definition to unbreak the
calculation of 'possible' features and 'always' features.

commit 9a32a7e78bd0cd9a9b6332cbdc345ee5ffd0c5de upstream.

IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before
it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible
for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method,
since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures
to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked.

However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces
the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the
attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel
user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of
Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility
it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the
privileged code to construct an attack.

This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries
of concern. This patch flushes the L1 cache after user accesses.

This is part of the fix for CVE-2020-4788.

commit d02f6b7dab8228487268298ea1f21081c0b4b3eb upstream.

get/put_user() can be called with nontrivial arguments. fs/proc/page.c
has a good example:

    if (put_user(stable_page_flags(ppage), out)) {

stable_page_flags() is quite a lot of code, including spin locks in
the page allocator.

Ensure these arguments are evaluated before user access is allowed.

This improves security by reducing code with access to userspace, but
it also fixes a PREEMPT bug with KUAP on powerpc/64s:
stable_page_flags() is currently called with AMR set to allow writes,
it ends up calling spin_unlock(), which can call preempt_schedule. But
the task switch code can not be called with AMR set (it relies on
interrupts saving the register), so this blows up.

It's fine if the code inside allow_user_access() is preemptible,
because a timer or IPI will save the AMR, but it's not okay to
explicitly cause a reschedule.

commit 61e3acd8c693a14fc69b824cb5b08d02cb90a6e7 upstream.

The KUAP implementation adds calls in clear_user() to enable and
disable access to userspace memory. However, it doesn't add these to
__clear_user(), which is used in the ptrace regset code.

As there's only one direct user of __clear_user() (the regset code),
and the time taken to set the AMR for KUAP purposes is going to
dominate the cost of a quick access_ok(), there's not much point
having a separate path.

Rename __clear_user() to __arch_clear_user(), and make __clear_user()
just call clear_user().

commit 5cd623333e7cf4e3a334c70529268b65f2a6c2c7 upstream.

Today, when a function like strncpy_from_user() is called,
the userspace access protection is de-activated and re-activated
for every word read.

By implementing user_access_begin and friends, the protection
is de-activated at the beginning of the copy and re-activated at the
end.

Implement user_access_begin(), user_access_end() and
unsafe_get_user(), unsafe_put_user() and unsafe_copy_to_user()

For the time being, we keep user_access_save() and
user_access_restore() as nops.

Backported from commit de78a9c42a79 ("powerpc: Add a framework
for Kernel Userspace Access Protection"). Here we don't try to
add the KUAP framework, we just want the helper functions
because we want to put uaccess flush helpers in them.

In terms of fixes, we don't need commit 1d8f739b07bd ("powerpc/kuap:
Fix set direction in allow/prevent_user_access()") as we don't have
real KUAP. Likewise as all our allows are noops and all our prevents
are just flushes, we don't need commit 9dc086f1e9ef ("powerpc/futex:
Fix incorrect user access blocking") The other 2 fixes we do need.

The original description is:

This patch implements a framework for Kernel Userspace Access
Protection.

Then subarches will have the possibility to provide their own
implementation by providing setup_kuap() and
allow/prevent_user_access().

Some platforms will need to know the area accessed and whether it is
accessed from read, write or both. Therefore source, destination and
size and handed over to the two functions.

mpe: Rename to allow/prevent rather than unlock/lock, and add
read/write wrappers. Drop the 32-bit code for now until we have an
implementation for it. Add kuap to pt_regs for 64-bit as well as
32-bit. Don't split strings, use pr_crit_ratelimited().

However there's no reference there or anywhere else to
MASKABLE_RELON_EXCEPTION_PSERIES_OOL and an attempt to use it
unsurprisingly doesn't work.

Add a definition provided by mpe.
