Commit 8633ef82f101 ("drivers/firmware: consolidate EFI framebuffer setup
for all arches") made the Generic System Framebuffers (sysfb) driver able
to be built on non-x86 architectures.

But it left the efifb_setup_from_dmi() function prototype declaration in
the architecture specific headers. This could lead to the following
compiler warning as reported by the kernel test robot:

   drivers/firmware/efi/sysfb_efi.c:70:6: warning: no previous prototype for function 'efifb_setup_from_dmi' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
   void efifb_setup_from_dmi(struct screen_info *si, const char *opt)
        ^
   drivers/firmware/efi/sysfb_efi.c:70:1: note: declare 'static' if the function is not intended to be used outside of this translation unit
   void efifb_setup_from_dmi(struct screen_info *si, const char *opt)

<title>KVM: arm64: Avoid setting the upper 32 bits of TCR_EL2 and CPTR_EL2 to 1</title>

<content type='text'>
Having a signed (1 &lt;&lt; 31) constant for TCR_EL2_RES1 and CPTR_EL2_TCPAC
causes the upper 32-bit to be set to 1 when assigning them to a 64-bit
variable. Bit 32 in TCR_EL2 is no longer RES0 in ARMv8.7: with FEAT_LPA2
it changes the meaning of bits 49:48 and 9:8 in the stage 1 EL2 page
table entries. As a result of the sign-extension, a non-VHE kernel can
no longer boot on a model with ARMv8.7 enabled.

CPTR_EL2 still has the top 32 bits RES0 but we should preempt any future
problems

Make these top bit constants unsigned as per commit df655b75c43f
("arm64: KVM: Avoid setting the upper 32 bits of VTCR_EL2 to 1").

<title>arm64: uaccess: avoid blocking within critical sections</title>

As Vincent reports in:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211118163417.21617-1-vincent.whitchurch@axis.com

The put_user() in schedule_tail() can get stuck in a livelock, similar
to a problem recently fixed on riscv in commit:

  285a76bb2cf51b0c ("riscv: evaluate put_user() arg before enabling user access")

In __raw_put_user() we have a critical section between
uaccess_ttbr0_enable() and uaccess_ttbr0_disable() where we cannot
safely call into the scheduler without having taken an exception, as
schedule() and other scheduling functions will not save/restore the
TTBR0 state. If either of the `x` or `ptr` arguments to __raw_put_user()
contain a blocking call, we may call into the scheduler within the
critical section. This can result in two problems:

1) The access within the critical section will occur without the
   required TTBR0 tables installed. This will fault, and where the
   required tables permit access, the access will be retried without the
   required tables, resulting in a livelock.

2) When TTBR0 SW PAN is in use, check_and_switch_context() does not
   modify TTBR0, leaving a stale value installed. The mappings of the
   blocked task will erroneously be accessible to regular accesses in
   the context of the new task. Additionally, if the tables are
   subsequently freed, local TLB maintenance required to reuse the ASID
   may be lost, potentially resulting in TLB corruption (e.g. in the
   presence of CnP).

The same issue exists for __raw_get_user() in the critical section
between uaccess_ttbr0_enable() and uaccess_ttbr0_disable().

A similar issue exists for __get_kernel_nofault() and
__put_kernel_nofault() for the critical section between
__uaccess_enable_tco_async() and __uaccess_disable_tco_async(), as the
TCO state is not context-switched by direct calls into the scheduler.
Here the TCO state may be lost from the context of the current task,
resulting in unexpected asynchronous tag check faults. It may also be
leaked to another task, suppressing expected tag check faults.

To fix all of these cases, we must ensure that we do not directly call
into the scheduler in their respective critical sections. This patch
reworks __raw_put_user(), __raw_get_user(), __get_kernel_nofault(), and
__put_kernel_nofault(), ensuring that parameters are evaluated outside
of the critical sections. To make this requirement clear, comments are
added describing the problem, and line spaces added to separate the
critical sections from other portions of the macros.

For __raw_get_user() and __raw_put_user() the `err` parameter is
conditionally assigned to, and we must currently evaluate this in the
critical section. This behaviour is relied upon by the signal code,
which uses chains of put_user_error() and get_user_error(), checking the
return value at the end. In all cases, the `err` parameter is a plain
int rather than a more complex expression with a blocking call, so this
is safe.

In future we should try to clean up the `err` usage to remove the
potential for this to be a problem.

Aside from the changes to time of evaluation, there should be no
functional change as a result of this patch.

<title>arm64: mm: Fix VM_BUG_ON(mm != &amp;init_mm) for trans_pgd</title>

<content type='text'>
trans_pgd_create_copy() can hit "VM_BUG_ON(mm != &amp;init_mm)" in the
function pmd_populate_kernel().

This is the combined consequence of commit 5de59884ac0e ("arm64:
trans_pgd: pass NULL instead of init_mm to *_populate functions"), which
replaced &amp;init_mm with NULL and commit 59511cfd08f3 ("arm64: mm: use XN
table mapping attributes for user/kernel mappings"), which introduced
the VM_BUG_ON.

Since the former sounds reasonable, it is better to work on the later.
From the perspective of trans_pgd, two groups of functions are
considered in the later one:

  pmd_populate_kernel()
    mm == NULL should be fixed, else it hits VM_BUG_ON()
  p?d_populate()
    mm == NULL means PXN, that is OK, since trans_pgd only copies a
    linear map, no execution will happen on the map.

So it is good enough to just relax VM_BUG_ON() to disregard mm == NULL

<title>arm64: ftrace: use HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c6d3cd32fd0064af7611d00877a67e6993bf220b</id>
<content type='text'>
When CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER is selected and the function graph
tracer is in use, unwind_frame() may erroneously associate a traced
function with an incorrect return address. This can happen when starting
an unwind from a pt_regs, or when unwinding across an exception
boundary.

This can be seen when recording with perf while the function graph
tracer is in use. For example:

| # echo function_graph &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
| # perf record -g -e raw_syscalls:sys_enter:k /bin/true
| # perf report

... reports the callchain erroneously as:

| el0t_64_sync
| el0t_64_sync_handler
| el0_svc_common.constprop.0
| perf_callchain
| get_perf_callchain
| syscall_trace_enter
| syscall_trace_enter

... whereas when the function graph tracer is not in use, it reports:

| el0t_64_sync
| el0t_64_sync_handler
| el0_svc
| do_el0_svc
| el0_svc_common.constprop.0
| syscall_trace_enter
| syscall_trace_enter

The underlying problem is that ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() takes an
index offset from the most recent entry added to the fgraph return
stack. We start an unwind at offset 0, and increment the offset each
time we encounter a rewritten return address (i.e. when we see
`return_to_handler`). This is broken in two cases:

1) Between creating a pt_regs and starting the unwind, function calls
   may place entries on the stack, leaving an arbitrary offset which we
   can only determine by performing a full unwind from the caller of the
   unwind code (and relying on none of the unwind code being
   instrumented).

   This can result in erroneous entries being reported in a backtrace
   recorded by perf or kfence when the function graph tracer is in use.
   Currently show_regs() is unaffected as dump_backtrace() performs an
   initial unwind.

2) When unwinding across an exception boundary (whether continuing an
   unwind or starting a new unwind from regs), we currently always skip
   the LR of the interrupted context. Where this was live and contained
   a rewritten address, we won't consume the corresponding fgraph ret
   stack entry, leaving subsequent entries off-by-one.

   This can result in erroneous entries being reported in a backtrace
   performed by any in-kernel unwinder when that backtrace crosses an
   exception boundary, with entries after the boundary being reported
   incorrectly. This includes perf, kfence, show_regs(), panic(), etc.

To fix this, we need to be able to uniquely identify each rewritten
return address such that we can map this back to the original return
address. We can use HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR to associate
each rewritten return address with a unique location on the stack. As
the return address is passed in the LR (and so is not guaranteed a
unique location in memory), we use the FP upon entry to the function
(i.e. the address of the caller's frame record) as the return address
pointer. Any nested call will have a different FP value as the caller
must create its own frame record and update FP to point to this.

Since ftrace_graph_ret_addr() requires the return address with the PAC
stripped, the stripping of the PAC is moved before the fixup of the
rewritten address. As we would unconditionally strip the PAC, moving
this earlier is not harmful, and we can avoid a redundant strip in the
return address fixup code.

I've tested this with the perf case above, the ftrace selftests, and
a number of ad-hoc unwinder tests. The tests all pass, and I have seen
no unexpected behaviour as a result of this change. I've tested with
pointer authentication under QEMU TCG where magic-sysrq+l correctly
recovers the original return addresses.

Note that this doesn't fix the issue of skipping a live LR at an
exception boundary, which is a more general problem and requires more
substantial rework. Were we to consume the LR in all cases this would
result in warnings where the interrupted context's LR contains
`return_to_handler`, but the FP has been altered, e.g.

| func:
|	&lt;--- ftrace entry ---&gt; 	// logs FP &amp; LR, rewrites LR
| 	STP	FP, LR, [SP, #-16]!
| 	MOV	FP, SP
| 	&lt;--- INTERRUPT ---&gt;

... as ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() fill not find a matching entry,
triggering the WARN_ON_ONCE() in unwind_frame().
