commit 295cf156231ca3f9e3a66bde7fab5e09c41835e0 upstream.

Al reminds us that the usercopy API must only return complete failure
if absolutely nothing could be copied. Currently, if userspace does
something silly like giving us an unaligned pointer to Device memory,
or a size which overruns MTE tag bounds, we may fail to honour that
requirement when faulting on a multi-byte access even though a smaller
access could have succeeded.

Add a mitigation to the fixup routines to fall back to a single-byte
copy if we faulted on a larger access before anything has been written
to the destination, to guarantee making *some* forward progress. We
needn't be too concerned about the overall performance since this should
only occur when callers are doing something a bit dodgy in the first
place. Particularly broken userspace might still be able to trick
generic_perform_write() into an infinite loop by targeting write() at
an mmap() of some read-only device register where the fault-in load
succeeds but any store synchronously aborts such that copy_to_user() is
genuinely unable to make progress, but, well, don't do that...

commit ec9d78070de986ecf581ea204fd322af4d2477ec upstream.

Commit 39d114ddc682 ("arm64: add KASAN support") added .weak directives to
arch/arm64/lib/mem*.S instead of changing the existing SYM_FUNC_START_PI
macros. This can lead to the assembly snippet `.weak memcpy ... .globl
memcpy` which will produce a STB_WEAK memcpy with GNU as but STB_GLOBAL
memcpy with LLVM's integrated assembler before LLVM 12. LLVM 12 (since
https://reviews.llvm.org/D90108) will error on such an overridden symbol
binding.

Use the appropriate SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI instead.

[ Upstream commit 19a2ca0fb560fd7be7b5293c6b652c6d6078dcde ]

ARM64 has asm implementation of memchr(), memcmp(), str[r]chr(),
str[n]cmp(), str[n]len().  KASAN don't see memory accesses in asm code,
thus it can potentially miss many bugs.

Ifdef out __HAVE_ARCH_* defines of these functions when KASAN is enabled,
so the generic implementations from lib/string.c will be used.

We can't just remove the asm functions because efistub uses them.  And we
can't have two non-weak functions either, so declare the asm functions as
weak.

<title>arm64: uaccess: Ensure PAN is re-enabled after unhandled uaccess fault</title>

<id>urn:sha1:703662598b9cde76526bb354b7167d40555f954c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 94bb804e1e6f0a9a77acf20d7c70ea141c6c821e upstream.

A number of our uaccess routines ('__arch_clear_user()' and
'__arch_copy_{in,from,to}_user()') fail to re-enable PAN if they
encounter an unhandled fault whilst accessing userspace.

For CPUs implementing both hardware PAN and UAO, this bug has no effect
when both extensions are in use by the kernel.

For CPUs implementing hardware PAN but not UAO, this means that a kernel
using hardware PAN may execute portions of code with PAN inadvertently
disabled, opening us up to potential security vulnerabilities that rely
on userspace access from within the kernel which would usually be
prevented by this mechanism. In other words, parts of the kernel run the
same way as they would on a CPU without PAN implemented/emulated at all.

For CPUs not implementing hardware PAN and instead relying on software
emulation via 'CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN=y', the impact is unfortunately
much worse. Calling 'schedule()' with software PAN disabled means that
the next task will execute in the kernel using the page-table and ASID
of the previous process even after 'switch_mm()', since the actual
hardware switch is deferred until return to userspace. At this point, or
if there is a intermediate call to 'uaccess_enable()', the page-table
and ASID of the new process are installed. Sadly, due to the changes
introduced by KPTI, this is not an atomic operation and there is a very
small window (two instructions) where the CPU is configured with the
page-table of the old task and the ASID of the new task; a speculative
access in this state is disastrous because it would corrupt the TLB
entries for the new task with mappings from the previous address space.

As Pavel explains:

  | I was able to reproduce memory corruption problem on Broadcom's SoC
  | ARMv8-A like this:
  |
  | Enable software perf-events with PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN so userland's
  | stack is accessed and copied.
  |
  | The test program performed the following on every CPU and forking
  | many processes:
  |
  |	unsigned long *map = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
  |				  MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
  |	map[0] = getpid();
  |	sched_yield();
  |	if (map[0] != getpid()) {
  |		fprintf(stderr, "Corruption detected!");
  |	}
  |	munmap(map, PAGE_SIZE);
  |
  | From time to time I was getting map[0] to contain pid for a
  | different process.

Ensure that PAN is re-enabled when returning after an unhandled user
fault from our uaccess routines.

x0 is not callee-saved in the PCS. So there is no need to specify
-fcall-used-x0.

Clang doesn't currently support -fcall-used flags. This patch will help
building the kernel with clang.

the atomic-fetch ops, which we implement efficiently for both LSE and
LL/SC systems. Use that instead of our hand-rolled, out-of-line bitops.S.

Otherwise modules that use these arithmetic operations will fail to
link. We accomplish this with the usual EXPORT_SYMBOL, which on most
architectures goes in the .S file but the ARM64 maintainers prefer that
insead it goes into arm64ksyms.

While we're at it, we also fix this up to use SPDX, and I personally
choose to relicense this as GPL2||BSD so that these symbols don't need
to be export_symbol_gpl, so all modules can use the routines, since
these are important general purpose compiler-generated function calls.

<content type='text'>
Our out-of-line atomics are built with a special calling convention,
preventing pointless stack spilling, and allowing us to patch call sites
with ARMv8.1 atomic instructions.

Instrumentation inserted by the compiler may result in calls to
functions not following this special calling convention, resulting in
registers being unexpectedly clobbered, and various problems resulting
from this.

For example, if a kernel is built with KCOV and ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS, the
compiler inserts calls to __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc in the prologues of
the atomic functions. This has been observed to result in spurious
cmpxchg failures, leading to a hang early on in the boot process.

This patch avoids such issues by preventing instrumentation of our
out-of-line atomics.

Pull DeviceTree updates from Rob Herring:

 - Sync dtc to upstream version v1.4.6-9-gaadd0b65c987. This adds a
   bunch more warnings (hidden behind W=1).

 - Build dtc lexer and parser files instead of using shipped versions.

 - Rework overlay apply API to take an FDT as input and apply overlays
   in a single step.

 - Add a phandle lookup cache. This improves boot time by hundreds of
   msec on systems with large DT.

 - Add trivial mcp4017/18/19 potentiometers bindings.

 - Remove VLA stack usage in DT code.

In cases where x30 is used as a temporary in the out-of-line ll/sc atomics
(e.g. atomic_fetch_add), the compiler tends to put out a full stackframe,
which included pointing the x29 at the new frame.

Since these things aren't traceable anyway, we can pass -fomit-frame-pointer
to reduce the work when spilling. Since this is incompatible with -pg, we
also remove that from the CFLAGS for this file.
