"s390,kvm: provide plumbing for machines checks when running guests"
This provides the basic plumbing for handling machine checks when
running guests
|
|
Add the logic to check if the machine check happens when the guest is
running. If yes, set the exit reason -EINTR in the machine check's
interrupt handler. Refactor s390_do_machine_check to avoid panicing
the host for some kinds of machine checks which happen
when guest is running.
Reinject the instruction processing damage's machine checks including
Delayed Access Exception instead of damaging the host if it happens
in the guest because it could be caused by improper update on TLB entry
or other software case and impacts the guest only.

The system control vm.alloc_pgste is used to control the size of the
page tables, either 2K or 4K. The idea is that a KVM host sets the
vm.alloc_pgste control to 1 which causes *all* new processes to run
with 4K page tables. For a non-kvm system the control should stay off
to save on memory used for page tables.
Trouble is that distributions choose to set the control globally to
be able to run KVM guests. This wastes memory on non-KVM systems.
Introduce the PT_S390_PGSTE ELF segment type to "mark" the qemu
executable with it. All executables with this (empty) segment in
its ELF phdr array will be started with 4K page tables. Any executable
without PT_S390_PGSTE will run with the default 2K page tables.
This removes the need to set vm.alloc_pgste=1 for a KVM host and
minimizes the waste of memory for page tables.

For most cases a protection exception in the host (e.g. copy
on write or dirty tracking) on the sie instruction will indicate
an instruction length of 4. Turns out that there are some corner
cases (e.g. runtime instrumentation) where this is not necessarily
true and the ILC is unpredictable.
Let's replace our 4 byte rewind_pad with 3 byte nops to prepare for
all possible ILCs.

git commit c5328901aa1db134 "[S390] entry[64].S improvements" removed
the update of the exit_timer lowcore field from the critical section
cleanup of the .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done and .Lio_restore/.Lio_done
blocks. If the PSW is updated by the critical section cleanup to point to
user space again, the interrupt entry code will do a vtime calculation
after the cleanup completed with an exit_timer value which has *not* been
updated. Due to this incorrect system time deltas are calculated.
If an interrupt occured with an old PSW between .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done
or .Lio_restore/.Lio_done update __LC_EXIT_TIMER with the system entry
time of the interrupt.

Pull livepatch updates from Jiri Kosina:
- a per-task consistency model is being added for architectures that
support reliable stack dumping (extending this, currently rather
trivial set, is currently in the works).
This extends the nature of the types of patches that can be applied
by live patching infrastructure. The code stems from the design
proposal made [1] back in November 2014. It's a hybrid of SUSE's
kGraft and RH's kpatch, combining advantages of both: it uses
kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined
with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of
fallback options which make it quite flexible.

There are three different code levels in regard to the identification
of guest samples. They differ in the way the LPP instruction is used.
1) Old kernels without the LPP instruction. The guest program parameter
is always zero.
2) Newer kernels load the process pid into the program parameter with LPP.
The guest program parameter is non-zero if the guest executes in a
process != idle.
3) The latest kernels load ((1UL << 31) | pid) with LPP to make the value
non-zero even for the idle task. The guest program parameter is non-zero
if the guest is running.
All kernels load the process pid to CR4 on context switch. The CPU sampling
code uses the value in CR4 to decide between guest and host samples in case
the guest program parameter is zero. The three cases:
1) CR4==pid, gpp==0
2) CR4==pid, gpp==pid
3) CR4==pid, gpp==((1UL << 31) | pid)
The load-control instruction to load the pid into CR4 is expensive and the
goal is to remove it. To distinguish the host CR4 from the guest pid for
the idle process the maximum value 0xffff for the PASN is used.
This adds a fourth case for a guest OS with an updated kernel:
4) CR4==0xffff, gpp=((1UL << 31) | pid)
The host kernel will have CR4==0xffff and will use (gpp!=0 || CR4!==0xffff)
to identify guest samples. This works nicely with all 4 cases, the only
possible issue would be a guest with an old kernel (gpp==0) and a process
pid of 0xffff. Well, don't do that..

This adds a new system call to enable the use of guarded storage for
user space processes. The system call takes two arguments, a command
and pointer to a guarded storage control block:
s390_guarded_storage(int command, struct gs_cb *gs_cb);
The second argument is relevant only for the GS_SET_BC_CB command.
The commands in detail:
0 - GS_ENABLE
Enable the guarded storage facility for the current task. The
initial content of the guarded storage control block will be
all zeros. After the enablement the user space code can use
load-guarded-storage-controls instruction (LGSC) to load an
arbitrary control block. While a task is enabled the kernel
will save and restore the current content of the guarded
storage registers on context switch.
1 - GS_DISABLE
Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the current
task. The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of
the guarded storage registers, the task specific content of
these registers is lost.
2 - GS_SET_BC_CB
Set a broadcast guarded storage control block. This is called
per thread and stores a specific guarded storage control block
in the task struct of the current task. This control block will
be used for the broadcast event GS_BROADCAST.
3 - GS_CLEAR_BC_CB
Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block. The guarded-
storage control block is removed from the task struct that was
established by GS_SET_BC_CB.
4 - GS_BROADCAST
Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the current task.
Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage
control block will load this control block and will be enabled
for guarded storage. The broadcast guarded storage control block
is used up, a second broadcast without a refresh of the stored
control block with GS_SET_BC_CB will not have any effect.

Update a task's patch state when returning from a system call or user
space interrupt, or after handling a signal.
This greatly increases the chances of a patch operation succeeding. If
a task is I/O bound, it can be patched when returning from a system
call. If a task is CPU bound, it can be patched when returning from an
interrupt. If a task is sleeping on a to-be-patched function, the user
can send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to force it to switch.
Since there are two ways the syscall can be restarted on return from a
signal handling process, it is important to clear the flag before
do_signal() is called. Otherwise we could miss the migration if we used
SIGSTOP/SIGCONT procedure or fake signal to migrate patching blocking
tasks. If we place our hook to sysc_work label in entry before
TIF_SIGPENDING is evaluated we kill two birds with one stone. The task
is correctly migrated in all return paths from a syscall.

A program check inside the kernel takes a slightly different path in
entry.S compare to a normal user fault. A recent change moved the store
of the breaking event address into the path taken for in-kernel program
checks as well, but %r14 has not been setup to point to the correct
location. A wild store is the consequence.
Move the store of the breaking event address to the code path for
user space faults.

Unbalanced set_fs usages (e.g. early exit from a function and a
forgotten set_fs(USER_DS) call) may lead to a situation where the
secondary asce is the kernel space asce when returning to user
space. This would allow user space to modify kernel space at will.
This would only be possible with the above mentioned kernel bug,
however we can detect this and fix the secondary asce before returning
to user space.
Therefore a new TIF_ASCE_SECONDARY which is used within set_fs. When
returning to user space check if TIF_ASCE_SECONDARY is set, which
would indicate a bug. If it is set print a message to the console,
fixup the secondary asce, and then return to user space.
This is similar to what is being discussed for x86 and arm:

Bit 0x100 of a page table, segment table of region table entry
can be used to disallow code execution for the virtual addresses
associated with the entry.
There is one tricky bit, the system call to return from a signal
is part of the signal frame written to the user stack. With a
non-executable stack this would stop working. To avoid breaking
things the protection fault handler checks the opcode that caused
the fault for 0x0a77 (sys_sigreturn) and 0x0aad (sys_rt_sigreturn)
and injects a system call. This is preferable to the alternative
solution with a stub function in the vdso because it works for
vdso=off and statically linked binaries as well.

The principles of operations specifies that the breaking event address
is stored to the address 0x110 in the prefix page only for program checks.
The last branch in user space is lost as soon as a branch in kernel space
is executed after e.g. an svc. This makes it impossible to accurately
maintain the breaking event address for a user space process.
Simplify the code, just copy the current breaking event address from
0x110 to the task structure for program checks from user space.

For system damage machine checks or machine checks due to invalid PSW
fields the system will be stopped. In order to get an oops message out
before killing the system the machine check handler branches to
.Lmcck_panic, switches to the panic stack and then does the usual
machine check handling.
The switch to the panic stack is incomplete, the stack pointer in %r15
is replaced, but the pt_regs pointer in %r11 is not. The result is
a program check which will kill the system in a slightly different way.

After linking there are several symbols for the same address that the
__switch_to symbol points to. E.g.:
000000000089b9c0 T __kprobes_text_start
000000000089b9c0 T __lock_text_end
000000000089b9c0 T __lock_text_start
000000000089b9c0 T __sched_text_end
000000000089b9c0 T __switch_to
When disassembling with "objdump -d" this results in a missing
__switch_to function. It would be named __kprobes_text_start
instead. To unconfuse objdump add a nop in front of the kprobes text
section. That way __switch_to appears again.
Obviously this solution is sort of a hack, since it also depends on
link order if this works or not. However it is the best I can come up

There is a tricky interaction between the machine check handler
and the critical sections of load_fpu_regs and save_fpu_regs
functions. If the machine check interrupts one of the two
functions the critical section cleanup will complete the function
before the machine check handler s390_do_machine_check is called.
Trouble is that the machine check handler needs to validate the
floating point registers *before* and not *after* the completion
of load_fpu_regs/save_fpu_regs.
The simplest solution is to rewind the PSW to the start of the
load_fpu_regs/save_fpu_regs and retry the function after the
return from the machine check handler.

commit e22cf8ca6f75 ("s390/cpumf: rework program parameter setting
to detect guest samples") requires guest changes to get proper
guest/host. We can do better: We can use the primary asn value,
which is set on all Linux variants to compare this with the host
pp value.
We now have the following cases:
1. Guest using PP
host sample: gpp == 0, asn == hpp --> host
guest sample: gpp != 0 --> guest
2. Guest not using PP
host sample: gpp == 0, asn == hpp --> host
guest sample: gpp == 0, asn != hpp --> guest
As soon as the host no longer sets CR4, we must back out
this heuristics - let's add a comment in switch_to.

When using systemtap it was observed that our udelay implementation is
rather suboptimal if being called from a kprobe handler installed by
systemtap.
The problem observed when a kprobe was installed on lock_acquired().
When the probe was hit the kprobe handler did call udelay, which set
up an (internal) timer and reenabled interrupts (only the clock comparator
interrupt) and waited for the interrupt.
This is an optimization to avoid that the cpu is busy looping while waiting
that enough time passes. The problem is that the interrupt handler still
does call irq_enter()/irq_exit() which then again can lead to a deadlock,
since some accounting functions may take locks as well.
If one of these locks is the same, which caused lock_acquired() to be
called, we have a nice deadlock.
This patch reworks the udelay code for the interrupts disabled case to
immediately leave the low level interrupt handler when the clock
comparator interrupt happens. That way no C code is being called and the
deadlock cannot happen anymore.

To distinguish host and guest samples for the kernel (PID part

Various functions in entry.S perform test-under-mask instructions
to test for particular bits in memory. Because test-under-mask uses
a mask value of one byte, the mask value and the offset into the
memory must be calculated manually. This easily introduces errors
and is hard to review and read.
Introduce the TSTMSK assembler macro to specify a mask constant and
let the macro calculate the offset and the byte mask to generate a
test-under-mask instruction. The benefit is that existing symbolic
constants can now be used for tests. Also the macro checks for
zero mask values and mask values that consist of multiple bytes.

Currently there are two mechanisms to deal with cleanup work due to
interrupts. The HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT macro is used to undo the changes
required to enter SIE in sie64a. If the SIE instruction causes a program
check, or an asynchronous interrupt is received the HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT
code forwards the program execution to sie_exit.
All the other critical sections in entry.S are handled by the code in
cleanup_critical that is called by the SWITCH_ASYNC macro.
Move the sie64a function to the beginning of the critical section and
add the code from HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT to cleanup_critical. Add a special
case for the sie64a cleanup to the program check handler.

The HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT macro is used in the interrupt handlers
and the program check handler to undo a few changes done by sie64a.
Among them are guest vs host LPP, the gmap ASCE vs kernel ASCE and
the bit that indicates that SIE is currently running on the CPU.
There is a race of a voluntary SIE exit vs asynchronous interrupts.
If the CPU completed the SIE instruction and the TM instruction of
the LPP macro at the time it receives an interrupt, the interrupt
handler will run while the LPP, the ASCE and the SIE bit are still
set up for guest execution. This might result in wrong sampling data,
but it will not cause data corruption or lockups.
The critical section in sie64a needs to be enlarged to include all
instructions that undo the changes required for guest execution.

Improve the save and restore behavior of FPU register contents to use the
vector extension within the kernel.
The kernel does not use floating-point or vector registers and, therefore,
saving and restoring the FPU register contents are performed for handling
signals or switching processes only. To prepare for using vector
instructions and vector registers within the kernel, enhance the save
behavior and implement a lazy restore at return to user space from a
system call or interrupt.
To implement the lazy restore, the save_fpu_regs() sets a CPU information
flag, CIF_FPU, to indicate that the FPU registers must be restored.
Saving and setting CIF_FPU is performed in an atomic fashion to be
interrupt-safe. When the kernel wants to use the vector extension or
wants to change the FPU register state for a task during signal handling,
the save_fpu_regs() must be called first. The CIF_FPU flag is also set at
process switch. At return to user space, the FPU state is restored. In
particular, the FPU state includes the floating-point or vector register
contents, as well as, vector-enablement and floating-point control. The
FPU state restore and clearing CIF_FPU is also performed in an atomic
fashion.
For KVM, the restore of the FPU register state is performed when restoring
the general-purpose guest registers before the SIE instructions is started.
Because the path towards the SIE instruction is interruptible, the CIF_FPU
flag must be checked again right before going into SIE. If set, the guest
registers must be reloaded again by re-entering the outer SIE loop. This
is the same behavior as if the SIE critical section is interrupted.

git commit 0c8c0f03e3a292e031596484275c14cf39c0ab7a
"x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'"
moved the thread_struct to the end of the task_struct.
This causes some of the offsets used in entry.S to overflow their
instruction operand field. To fix this use aghi to create a
dedicated pointer for the thread_struct.

exit_sie_sync is used to kick CPUs out of SIE and prevent reentering at
any point in time. This is used to reload the prefix pages and to
set the IBS stuff in a way that guarantees that after this function
returns we are no longer in SIE. All current users trigger KVM requests.
The request must be set before we block the CPUs to avoid races. Let's
make this implicit by adding the request into a new function
kvm_s390_sync_requests that replaces exit_sie_sync and split out
s390_vcpu_block and s390_vcpu_unblock, that can be used to keep
CPUs out of SIE independent of requests.

Remove the 31 bit syscalls from the syscall table. This is a separate patch
just in case I screwed something up so it can be easily reverted.
However the conversion was done with a script, so everything should be ok.

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.
The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.
Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.
