commit 7b7891c7bdfd61fc9ed6747a0a05efe2394dddc6 upstream.

Newer versions of clang only look for $(COMPAT_GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR)as [1],
rather than $(COMPAT_GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR)$(CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT)as,
resulting in the following build error:

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- \
CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT=arm-linux-gnueabi- LLVM=1 O=out/aarch64 distclean \
defconfig arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/
...
/home/nathan/cbl/toolchains/llvm-binutils/bin/as: unrecognized option '-EL'
clang-12: error: assembler command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[3]: *** [arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/Makefile:181: arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/note.o] Error 1
...

Adding the value of CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT (adding notdir to account for a
full path for CROSS_COMPILE_COMPAT) fixes this issue, which matches the
solution done for the main Makefile [2].

replace the couple of offenders with calls to test_tsk_thread_flag()
directly.

<title>arm64: compat: Ensure upper 32 bits of x0 are zero on syscall return</title>

commit 15956689a0e60aa0c795174f3c310b60d8794235 upstream.

Although we zero the upper bits of x0 on entry to the kernel from an
AArch32 task, we do not clear them on the exception return path and can
therefore expose 64-bit sign extended syscall return values to userspace
via interfaces such as the 'perf_regs' ABI, which deal exclusively with
64-bit registers.

Explicitly clear the upper 32 bits of x0 on return from a compat system
call.

commit ac2081cdc4d99c57f219c1a6171526e0fa0a6fff upstream.

Although the arm64 single-step state machine can be fast-forwarded in
cases where we wish to generate a SIGTRAP without actually executing an
instruction, this has two major limitations outside of simply skipping
an instruction due to emulation.

1. Stepping out of a ptrace signal stop into a signal handler where
   SIGTRAP is blocked. Fast-forwarding the stepping state machine in
   this case will result in a forced SIGTRAP, with the handler reset to
   SIG_DFL.

2. The hardware implicitly fast-forwards the state machine when executing
   an SVC instruction for issuing a system call. This can interact badly
   with subsequent ptrace stops signalled during the execution of the
   system call (e.g. SYSCALL_EXIT or seccomp traps), as they may corrupt
   the stepping state by updating the PSTATE for the tracee.

Resolve both of these issues by injecting a pseudo-singlestep exception
on entry to a signal handler and also on return to userspace following a
system call.

<title>arm64: ptrace: Override SPSR.SS when single-stepping is enabled</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 3a5a4366cecc25daa300b9a9174f7fdd352b9068 upstream.

Luis reports that, when reverse debugging with GDB, single-step does not
function as expected on arm64:

  | I've noticed, under very specific conditions, that a PTRACE_SINGLESTEP
  | request by GDB won't execute the underlying instruction. As a consequence,
  | the PC doesn't move, but we return a SIGTRAP just like we would for a
  | regular successful PTRACE_SINGLESTEP request.

The underlying problem is that when the CPU register state is restored
as part of a reverse step, the SPSR.SS bit is cleared and so the hardware
single-step state can transition to the "active-pending" state, causing
an unexpected step exception to be taken immediately if a step operation
is attempted.

In hindsight, we probably shouldn't have exposed SPSR.SS in the pstate
accessible by the GPR regset, but it's a bit late for that now. Instead,
simply prevent userspace from configuring the bit to a value which is
inconsistent with the TIF_SINGLESTEP state for the task being traced.

Commit f7b93d42945c ("arm64/alternatives: use subsections for replacement
sequences") moved the alternatives replacement sequences into subsections,
in order to keep the as close as possible to the code that they replace.

Unfortunately, this broke the logic in branch_insn_requires_update,
which assumed that any branch into kernel executable code was a branch
that required updating, which is no longer the case now that the code
sequences that are patched in are in the same section as the patch site
itself.

So the only way to discriminate branches that require updating and ones
that don't is to check whether the branch targets the replacement sequence
itself, and so we can drop the call to kernel_text_address() entirely.

[ Upstream commit f7b93d42945cc71e1346dd5ae07c59061d56745e ]

When building very large kernels, the logic that emits replacement
sequences for alternatives fails when relative branches are present
in the code that is emitted into the .altinstr_replacement section
and patched in at the original site and fixed up. The reason is that
the linker will insert veneers if relative branches go out of range,
and due to the relative distance of the .altinstr_replacement from
the .text section where its branch targets usually live, veneers
may be emitted at the end of the .altinstr_replacement section, with
the relative branches in the sequence pointed at the veneers instead
of the actual target.

The alternatives patching logic will attempt to fix up the branch to
point to its original target, which will be the veneer in this case,
but given that the patch site is likely to be far away as well, it
will be out of range and so patching will fail. There are other cases
where these veneers are problematic, e.g., when the target of the
branch is in .text while the patch site is in .init.text, in which
case putting the replacement sequence inside .text may not help either.

So let's use subsections to emit the replacement code as closely as
possible to the patch site, to ensure that veneers are only likely to
be emitted if they are required at the patch site as well, in which
case they will be in range for the replacement sequence both before
and after it is transported to the patch site.

This will prevent alternative sequences in non-init code from being
released from memory after boot, but this is tolerable given that the
entire section is only 512 KB on an allyesconfig build (which weighs in
at 500+ MB for the entire Image). Also, note that modules today carry
the replacement sequences in non-init sections as well, and any of
those that target init code will be emitted into init sections after
this change.

This fixes an early crash when booting an allyesconfig kernel on a
system where any of the alternatives sequences containing relative
branches are activated at boot (e.g., ARM64_HAS_PAN on TX2)
