commit c21b90f77687075115d989e53a8ec5e2bb427ab1 upstream.

Make sure resources are not improperly shared in the op cache and
cause instruction corruption this way.

Commit 232afb557835d6f6859c73bf610bad308c96b131 upstream.

Add a synthetic feature flag specifically for first generation Zen
machines. There's need to have a generic flag for all Zen generations so
make X86_FEATURE_ZEN be that flag.

[ Upstream commit cf96ab1a966b87b09fdd9e8cc8357d2d00776a3a ]

Protect against the kcpuid code parsing faulty max subleaf numbers
through a min() expression.  Thus, ensuring that max_subleaf will always
be ≤ MAX_SUBLEAF_NUM.

Use "u32" for the subleaf numbers since kcpuid is compiled with -Wextra,
which includes signed/unsigned comparisons warnings.

[ Upstream commit b8000264348979b60dbe479255570a40e1b3a097 ]

The x86 instruction decoder is used not only for decoding kernel
instructions. It is also used by perf uprobes (user space probes) and by
perf tools Intel Processor Trace decoding. Consequently, it needs to
support instructions executed by user space also.

Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions and Future Features manual
number 319433-044 of May 2021, documented VEX versions of instructions
VPDPBUSD, VPDPBUSDS, VPDPWSSD and VPDPWSSDS, but the opcode map has them
listed as EVEX only.

Remove EVEX-only (ev) annotation from instructions VPDPBUSD, VPDPBUSDS,
VPDPWSSD and VPDPWSSDS, which allows them to be decoded with either a VEX
or EVEX prefix.

[ Upstream commit 59162e0c11d7257cde15f907d19fefe26da66692 ]

The x86 instruction decoder is used not only for decoding kernel
instructions. It is also used by perf uprobes (user space probes) and by
perf tools Intel Processor Trace decoding. Consequently, it needs to
support instructions executed by user space also.

Opcode 0x68 PUSH instruction is currently defined as 64-bit operand size
only i.e. (d64). That was based on Intel SDM Opcode Map. However that is
contradicted by the Instruction Set Reference section for PUSH in the
same manual.

Remove 64-bit operand size only annotation from opcode 0x68 PUSH
instruction.

Example:

  $ cat pushw.s
  .global  _start
  .text
  _start:
          pushw   $0x1234
          mov     $0x1,%eax   # system call number (sys_exit)
          int     $0x80
  $ as -o pushw.o pushw.s
  $ ld -s -o pushw pushw.o
  $ objdump -d pushw | tail -4
  0000000000401000 &lt;.text&gt;:
    401000:       66 68 34 12             pushw  $0x1234
    401004:       b8 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%eax
    401009:       cd 80                   int    $0x80
  $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./pushw
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.014 MB perf.data ]

 Before:

  $ perf script --insn-trace=disasm

<title>work around gcc bugs with 'asm goto' with outputs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f70efe54b97e95c369ab3f46cdbed8b5608e36d7</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 68fb3ca0e408e00db1c3f8fccdfa19e274c033be upstream.

We've had issues with gcc and 'asm goto' before, and we created a
'asm_volatile_goto()' macro for that in the past: see commits
3f0116c3238a ("compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation
bug") and a9f180345f53 ("compiler/gcc4: Make quirk for
asm_volatile_goto() unconditional").

Then, much later, we ended up removing the workaround in commit
43c249ea0b1e ("compiler-gcc.h: remove ancient workaround for gcc PR
58670") because we no longer supported building the kernel with the
affected gcc versions, but we left the macro uses around.

Now, Sean Christopherson reports a new version of a very similar
problem, which is fixed by re-applying that ancient workaround.  But the
problem in question is limited to only the 'asm goto with outputs'
cases, so instead of re-introducing the old workaround as-is, let's
rename and limit the workaround to just that much less common case.

It looks like there are at least two separate issues that all hit in
this area:

 (a) some versions of gcc don't mark the asm goto as 'volatile' when it
     has outputs:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98619
        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110420

     which is easy to work around by just adding the 'volatile' by hand.

 (b) Internal compiler errors:

        https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110422

     which are worked around by adding the extra empty 'asm' as a
     barrier, as in the original workaround.

but the problem Sean sees may be a third thing since it involves bad
code generation (not an ICE) even with the manually added 'volatile'.

The same old workaround works for this case, even if this feels a
bit like voodoo programming and may only be hiding the issue.
