We already have struct range, so just use it.

<title>kexec: turn all kexec_mutex acquisitions into trylocks</title>

<content type='text'>
Patch series "kexec, panic: Making crash_kexec() NMI safe", v4.


This patch (of 2):

Most acquistions of kexec_mutex are done via mutex_trylock() - those were
a direct "translation" from:

  8c5a1cf0ad3a ("kexec: use a mutex for locking rather than xchg()")

there have however been two additions since then that use mutex_lock():
crash_get_memory_size() and crash_shrink_memory().

A later commit will replace said mutex with an atomic variable, and
locking operations will become atomic_cmpxchg().  Rather than having those
mutex_lock() become while (atomic_cmpxchg(&amp;lock, 0, 1)), turn them into
trylocks that can return -EBUSY on acquisition failure.

This does halve the printable size of the crash kernel, but that's still
neighbouring 2G for 32bit kernels which should be ample enough.

commit 278311e417be ("kexec, KEYS: Make use of platform keyring for
signature verify") adds platform keyring support on x86 kexec but not
arm64.

The code in bzImage64_verify_sig uses the keys on the
.builtin_trusted_keys, .machine, if configured and enabled,
.secondary_trusted_keys, also if configured, and .platform keyrings
to verify the signed kernel image as PE file.

<content type='text'>
Before commit 105e10e2cf1c ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from
functions"), there was already no arch-specific implementation
of arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig. With weak attribute dropped by that
commit, arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig is completely useless. So clean it
up.

Note later patches are dependent on this patch so it should be backported
to the stable tree as well.

<content type='text'>
As requested
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87ee0q7b92.fsf@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org),
this series converts weak functions in kexec to use the #ifdef approach.

Quoting the 3e35142ef99fe ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from
arch_kexec_apply_relocations[_add]") changelog:

: Since commit d1bcae833b32f1 ("ELF: Don't generate unused section symbols")
: [1], binutils (v2.36+) started dropping section symbols that it thought
: were unused.  This isn't an issue in general, but with kexec_file.c, gcc
: is placing kexec_arch_apply_relocations[_add] into a separate
: .text.unlikely section and the section symbol ".text.unlikely" is being
: dropped.  Due to this, recordmcount is unable to find a non-weak symbol in
: .text.unlikely to generate a relocation record against.

This patch (of 2);

Drop __weak attribute from functions in kexec_file.c:
- arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe()
- arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup()
- arch_kexec_kernel_image_load()
- arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole()
- arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig()

arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() calls into kexec_image_load_default(), so
drop the static attribute for the latter.

arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() is not overridden by any architecture, so
drop the __weak attribute.

Currently, an unsigned kernel could be kexec'ed when IMA arch specific
policy is configured unless lockdown is enabled. Enforce kernel
signature verification check in the kexec_file_load syscall when IMA
arch specific policy is configured.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:

 - Support for the Svpbmt extension, which allows memory attributes to
   be encoded in pages

 - Support for the Allwinner D1's implementation of page-based memory
   attributes

 - Support for running rv32 binaries on rv64 systems, via the compat
   subsystem

 - Support for kexec_file()

 - Support for the new generic ticket-based spinlocks, which allows us
   to also move to qrwlock. These should have already gone in through
   the asm-geneic tree as well

 - A handful of cleanups and fixes, include some larger ones around
   atomics and XIP

Since commit d1bcae833b32f1 ("ELF: Don't generate unused section
symbols") [1], binutils (v2.36+) started dropping section symbols that
it thought were unused.  This isn't an issue in general, but with
kexec_file.c, gcc is placing kexec_arch_apply_relocations[_add] into a
separate .text.unlikely section and the section symbol ".text.unlikely"
is being dropped. Due to this, recordmcount is unable to find a non-weak
symbol in .text.unlikely to generate a relocation record against.

Address this by dropping the weak attribute from these functions.
Instead, follow the existing pattern of having architectures #define the
name of the function they want to override in their headers.

When CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is set for riscv platform, the compilation of
kernel/kexec_file.c generate build error:

This occurs is because the "kernel_map" referenced in macro
is_linear_mapping()  is suppose to be the one of struct kernel_mapping
defined in arch/riscv/mm/init.c, but the 2nd argument of
crash_prepare_elf64_header() has same symbol name, in expansion of macro
is_linear_mapping in function crash_prepare_elf64_header(), "kernel_map"
actually is the local variable.
