<content type='text'>
pgtable_l5_enabled is defined using cpu_feature_enabled() but we refer
to it as a variable. This is misleading.

Make pgtable_l5_enabled() a function.

We cannot literally define it as a function due to circular dependencies
between header files. Function-alike macros is close enough.

Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/kexec: avoid double free_page() upon do_kexec_load() failure.

syzbot is reporting crashes after memory allocation failure inside
do_kexec_load() [1]. This is because free_transition_pgtable() is called
by both init_transition_pgtable() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory
allocation failed inside init_transition_pgtable().

Regarding 32bit code, machine_kexec_free_page_tables() is called by both
machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory
allocation failed inside machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables().

Fix this by leaving the error handling to machine_kexec_cleanup()
(and optionally setting NULL after free_page()).

[1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=91e52396168cf2bdd572fe1e1bc0bc645c1c6b40

Fixes: f5deb79679af6eb4 ("x86: kexec: Use one page table in x86_64 machine_kexec")
Fixes: 92be3d6bdf2cb349 ("kexec/i386: allocate page table pages dynamically")

<title>kernel/kexec_file.c: remove mis-use of sh_offset field during purgatory load</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8da0b724959ccd3f8435214ebdaf1aef548967bb</id>
<content type='text'>
The current code uses the sh_offset field in purgatory_info-&gt;sechdrs to
store a pointer to the current load address of the section.  Depending
whether the section will be loaded or not this is either a pointer into
purgatory_info-&gt;purgatory_buf or kexec_purgatory.  This is not only a
violation of the ELF standard but also makes the code very hard to
understand as you cannot tell if the memory you are using is read-only
or not.

Remove this misuse and store the offset of the section in
pugaroty_info-&gt;purgatory_buf in sh_offset.

<title>kernel/kexec_file.c: use read-only sections in arch_kexec_apply_relocations*</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8aec395b8478310521031157ef5d44ef19c2c581</id>
<content type='text'>
When the relocations are applied to the purgatory only the section the
relocations are applied to is writable.  The other sections, i.e.  the
symtab and .rel/.rela, are in read-only kexec_purgatory.  Highlight this
by marking the corresponding variables as 'const'.

While at it also change the signatures of arch_kexec_apply_relocations* to
take section pointers instead of just the index of the relocation section.
This removes the second lookup and sanity check of the sections in arch
code.

<content type='text'>
As arch_kexec_kernel_image_{probe,load}(),
arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() and arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig()
are almost duplicated among architectures, they can be commonalized with
an architecture-defined kexec_file_ops array.  So let's factor them out.

User-space utilities examining crash-kernels need to know if the
crashed kernel was in 5-level paging mode or not.

So write 'pgtable_l5_enabled' to vmcoreinfo, which covers these
three cases:

  pgtable_l5_enabled == 0 when:
   - Compiled with !CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL
   - Compiled with CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y while CPU has no 'la57' flag

  pgtable_l5_enabled != 0 when:
   - Compiled with CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y and CPU has 'la57' flag

<id>urn:sha1:b21ebf2fb4cde1618915a97cc773e287ff49173e</id>
<content type='text'>
On i386, there are 2 types of PLTs, PIC and non-PIC.  PIE and shared
objects must use PIC PLT.  To use PIC PLT, you need to load
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ into EBX first.  There is no need for that on
x86-64 since x86-64 uses PC-relative PLT.

On x86-64, for 32-bit PC-relative branches, we can generate PLT32
relocation, instead of PC32 relocation, which can also be used as
a marker for 32-bit PC-relative branches.  Linker can always reduce
PLT32 relocation to PC32 if function is defined locally.   Local
functions should use PC32 relocation.  As far as Linux kernel is
concerned, R_X86_64_PLT32 can be treated the same as R_X86_64_PC32
since Linux kernel doesn't use PLT.

R_X86_64_PLT32 for 32-bit PC-relative branches has been enabled in
binutils master branch which will become binutils 2.31.

[ hjl is working on having better documentation on this all, but a few
  more notes from him:

   "PLT32 relocation is used as marker for PC-relative branches. Because
    of EBX, it looks odd to generate PLT32 relocation on i386 when EBX
    doesn't have GOT.

    As for symbol resolution, PLT32 and PC32 relocations are almost
    interchangeable. But when linker sees PLT32 relocation against a
    protected symbol, it can resolved locally at link-time since it is
    used on a branch instruction. Linker can't do that for PC32
    relocation"

  but for the kernel use, the two are basically the same, and this
  commit gets things building and working with the current binutils
  master   - Linus ]
