License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default are files without license information under the default license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception which is in the kernels COPYING file: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". otherwise syscall usage would not be possible. Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

s390: add support for vector extension The vector extension introduces 32 128-bit vector registers and a set of instruction to operate on the vector registers. The kernel can control the use of vector registers for the problem state program with a bit in control register 0. Once enabled for a process the kernel needs to retain the content of the vector registers on context switch. The signal frame is extended to include the vector registers. Two new register sets NT_S390_VXRS_LOW and NT_S390_VXRS_HIGH are added to the regset interface for the debugger and core dumps. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

s390: add a system call for guarded storage This adds a new system call to enable the use of guarded storage for user space processes. The system call takes two arguments, a command and pointer to a guarded storage control block: s390_guarded_storage(int command, struct gs_cb *gs_cb); The second argument is relevant only for the GS_SET_BC_CB command. The commands in detail: 0 - GS_ENABLE Enable the guarded storage facility for the current task. The initial content of the guarded storage control block will be all zeros. After the enablement the user space code can use load-guarded-storage-controls instruction (LGSC) to load an arbitrary control block. While a task is enabled the kernel will save and restore the current content of the guarded storage registers on context switch. 1 - GS_DISABLE Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the current task. The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of the guarded storage registers, the task specific content of these registers is lost. 2 - GS_SET_BC_CB Set a broadcast guarded storage control block. This is called per thread and stores a specific guarded storage control block in the task struct of the current task. This control block will be used for the broadcast event GS_BROADCAST. 3 - GS_CLEAR_BC_CB Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block. The guarded- storage control block is removed from the task struct that was established by GS_SET_BC_CB. 4 - GS_BROADCAST Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the current task. Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage control block will load this control block and will be enabled for guarded storage. The broadcast guarded storage control block is used up, a second broadcast without a refresh of the stored control block with GS_SET_BC_CB will not have any effect.

arm64: ptrace: add NT_ARM_SYSTEM_CALL regset This regeset is intended to be used to get and set a system call number while tracing. There was some discussion about possible approaches to do so: (1) modify x8 register with ptrace(PTRACE_SETREGSET) indirectly, and update regs->syscallno later on in syscall_trace_enter(), or (2) define a dedicated regset for this purpose as on s390, or (3) support ptrace(PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL) as on arch/arm Thinking of the fact that user_pt_regs doesn't expose 'syscallno' to tracer as well as that secure_computing() expects a changed syscall number, especially case of -1, to be visible before this function returns in syscall_trace_enter(), (1) doesn't work well. We will take (2) since it looks much cleaner. Signed-off-by: AKASHI Takahiro <takahiro.akashi@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

arm64/sve: ptrace and ELF coredump support This patch defines and implements a new regset NT_ARM_SVE, which describes a thread's SVE register state. This allows a debugger to manipulate the SVE state, as well as being included in ELF coredumps for post-mortem debugging. Because the regset size and layout are dependent on the thread's current vector length, it is not possible to define a C struct to describe the regset contents as is done for existing regsets. Instead, and for the same reasons, NT_ARM_SVE is based on the freeform variable-layout approach used for the SVE signal frame. Additionally, to reduce debug overhead when debugging threads that might or might not have live SVE register state, NT_ARM_SVE may be presented in one of two different formats: the old struct user_fpsimd_state format is embedded for describing the state of a thread with no live SVE state, whereas a new variable-layout structure is embedded for describing live SVE state. This avoids a debugger needing to poll NT_PRFPREG in addition to NT_ARM_SVE, and allows existing userspace code to handle the non-SVE case without too much modification. For this to work, NT_ARM_SVE is defined with a fixed-format header of type struct user_sve_header, which the recipient can use to figure out the content, size and layout of the reset of the regset. Accessor macros are defined to allow the vector-length-dependent parts of the regset to be manipulated.

arm64: expose user PAC bit positions via ptrace When pointer authentication is in use, data/instruction pointers have a number of PAC bits inserted into them. The number and position of these bits depends on the configured TCR_ELx.TxSZ and whether tagging is enabled. ARMv8.3 allows tagging to differ for instruction and data pointers. For userspace debuggers to unwind the stack and/or to follow pointer chains, they need to be able to remove the PAC bits before attempting to use a pointer. This patch adds a new structure with masks describing the location of the PAC bits in userspace instruction and data pointers (i.e. those addressable via TTBR0), which userspace can query via PTRACE_GETREGSET. By clearing these bits from pointers (and replacing them with the value of bit 55), userspace can acquire the PAC-less versions. This new regset is exposed when the kernel is built with (user) pointer authentication support, and the address authentication feature is enabled. Otherwise, the regset is hidden.

vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in second kernel The sequence of actions done by device drivers to append their device specific hardware/firmware logs to /proc/vmcore are as follows: 1. During probe (before hardware is initialized), device drivers register to the vmcore module (via vmcore_add_device_dump()), with callback function, along with buffer size and log name needed for firmware/hardware log collection. 2. vmcore module allocates the buffer with requested size. It adds an Elf note and invokes the device driver's registered callback function. 3. Device driver collects all hardware/firmware logs into the buffer and returns control back to vmcore module. Ensure that the device dump buffer size is always aligned to page size so that it can be mmaped. Also, rename alloc_elfnotes_buf() to vmcore_alloc_buf() to make it more generic and reserve NT_VMCOREDD note type to indicate vmcore device dump. Suggested-by: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>.

MIPS: Add DSP ASE regset support Define an NT_MIPS_DSP core file note type and implement a corresponding regset holding the DSP ASE register context, following the layout of the `mips_dsp_state' structure, except for the DSPControl register stored as a 64-bit rather than 32-bit quantity in a 64-bit note. The lack of DSP ASE register saving to core files can be considered a design flaw with commit e50c0a8fa60d ("Support the MIPS32 / MIPS64 DSP ASE."), leading to an incomplete state being saved. Consequently no DSP ASE regset has been created with commit 7aeb753b5353 ("MIPS: Implement task_user_regset_view."), when regset support was added to the MIPS port. Additionally there is no way for ptrace(2) to correctly access the DSP accumulator registers in n32 processes with the existing interfaces. This is due to 32-bit truncation of data passed with PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR requests, which cannot be avoided owing to how the data types for ptrace(3) have been defined. This new NT_MIPS_DSP regset fills the missing interface gap. [paul.burton@mips.com: - Change NT_MIPS_DSP to 0x800 to avoid conflict with NT_VMCOREDD introduced by commit 2724273e8fd0 ("vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in second kernel"). - Drop stable tag.

MIPS: ptrace: introduce NT_MIPS_MSA regset The current methods for obtaining FP context via ptrace only provide either 32 or 64 bits per data register. With MSA, where vector registers are aliased with scalar FP data registers, those registers are 128 bits wide. Thus a new mechanism is required for userland to access those registers via ptrace. This patch introduces an NT_MIPS_MSA regset which provides, in this order: - The full 128 bits value of each vector register, in native endianness saved as though elements are doubles. That is, the format of each vector register is as would be obtained by saving it to memory using an st.d instruction. - The 32 bit scalar FP implementation register (FIR). - The 32 bit scalar FP control & status register (FCSR). - The 32 bit MSA implementation register (MSAIR). - The 32 bit MSA control & status register (MSACSR). The provision of the FIR & FCSR registers in addition to the MSA equivalents allows scalar FP context to be retrieved as a subset of the context available via this regset. Along with the MSA equivalents they also nicely form the final 128 bit "register" of the regset.

ELF: Add ELF program property parsing support ELF program properties will be needed for detecting whether to enable optional architecture or ABI features for a new ELF process. For now, there are no generic properties that we care about, so do nothing unless CONFIG_ARCH_USE_GNU_PROPERTY=y. Otherwise, the presence of properties using the PT_PROGRAM_PROPERTY phdrs entry (if any), and notify each property to the arch code. For now, the added code is not used.

arm64: elf: Enable BTI at exec based on ELF program properties For BTI protection to be as comprehensive as possible, it is desirable to have BTI enabled from process startup. If this is not done, the process must use mprotect() to enable BTI for each of its executable mappings, but this is painful to do in the libc startup code. It's simpler and more sound to have the kernel do it instead. To this end, detect BTI support in the executable (or ELF interpreter, as appropriate), via the NT_GNU_PROGRAM_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 note, and tweak the initial prot flags for the process' executable pages to include PROT_BTI as appropriate.
