ptrace_set_debugreg() is trivial but looks horrible. Kill the unnecessary
goto's and return's to cleanup the code.
This matches ptrace_get_debugreg() which also needs the trivial whitespace
cleanups.

Commit 24f1e32c60c4 ("hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer
on top of perf events") introduced the minor regression. Before this
commit
PTRACE_POKEUSER DR7, enableDR0
PTRACE_POKEUSER DR0, address
was perfectly valid, now PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR7) fails if DR0 was not
previously initialized by PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR0).
Change ptrace_write_dr7() to do ptrace_register_breakpoint(addr => 0) if
!bp && !disabled.
This fixes watchpoint-zeroaddr from ptrace-tests, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=660204.

No functional changes, preparation.
Extract the "register breakpoint" code from ptrace_get_debugreg() into
the new/generic helper, ptrace_register_breakpoint(). It will have more
users.
The patch also adds another simple helper, ptrace_fill_bp_fields(), to
factor out the arch_bp_generic_fields() logic in register/modify.

ptrace_write_dr7() skips ptrace_modify_breakpoint(disabled => true)
unless second_pass, this buys nothing but complicates the code and means
that we always do the main loop twice even if "disabled" was never true.
The comment says:
Don't unregister the breakpoints right-away,
unless all register_user_hw_breakpoint()
requests have succeeded.
Firstly, we do not do register_user_hw_breakpoint(), it was removed by
commit 24f1e32c60c4 ("hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer
on top of perf events").
We are going to restore register_user_hw_breakpoint() (see the next
patch) but this doesn't matter: after commit 44234adcdce3
("hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering them")
perf_event_disable() can not hurt, hw_breakpoint_del() does not free the
slot.
Remove the "second_pass" check from the main loop and simplify the code.
Since we have to check "bp != NULL" anyway, the patch also removes the
same check in ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and moves the comment into
ptrace_write_dr7().
With this patch the second pass is only needed to restore the saved
old_dr7. This should never fail, so the patch adds WARN_ON() to catch
the potential problems as Frederic suggested.

ptrace_write_dr7() looks unnecessarily overcomplicated. We can factor
out ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and do not do "continue" twice, just we
need to pass the proper "disabled" argument to
ptrace_modify_breakpoint().

This reverts commit 87dc669ba257 ("hw_breakpoints: Fix racy access to
ptrace breakpoints").
The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit
9899d11f6544 ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race
with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and
->ptrace_bps[] can't go away.
The patch only removes ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints and
does a couple of "while at it" cleanups, it doesn't remove other changes
from the reverted commit.

Commit cb57a2b4cff7edf2a4e32c0163200e9434807e0a ("x86-32: Export
kernel_stack_pointer() for modules") added an include of the
module.h header in conjunction with adding an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
of kernel_stack_pointer.
But module.h should be avoided for simple exports, since it in turn
includes the world. Swap the module.h for export.h instead.

Pull the latest RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney:
" The major features of this series are:
1. A first version of no-callbacks CPUs. This version prohibits
offlining CPU 0, but only when enabled via CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y.
Relaxing this constraint is in progress, but not yet ready
for prime time. These commits were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/724, and are at branch rcu/nocb.
2. Changes to SRCU that allows statically initialized srcu_struct
structures. These commits were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/296, and are at branch rcu/srcu.
3. Restructuring of RCU's debugfs output. These commits were posted
to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/341, and are at
branch rcu/tracing.
4. Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327, and are at branch rcu/hotplug.
Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to
be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9.
5. Changes to RCU's idle interface, most notably a new module
parameter that redirects normal grace-period operations to
their expedited equivalents. These were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/739, and are at branch rcu/idle.
6. Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility,
posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315, and
are at branch rcu/stall. The most notable change reduces the
default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds,
so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout.
7. Documentation updates, which were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/280, and are at branch rcu/doc.
A couple of late-breaking changes were posted at

Create a new subsystem that probes on kernel boundaries
to keep track of the transitions between level contexts
with two basic initial contexts: user or kernel.
This is an abstraction of some RCU code that use such tracking
to implement its userspace extended quiescent state.
We need to pull this up from RCU into this new level of indirection
because this tracking is also going to be used to implement an "on
demand" generic virtual cputime accounting. A necessary step to
shutdown the tick while still accounting the cputime.

In 32 bit the stack address provided by kernel_stack_pointer() may
point to an invalid range causing NULL pointer access or page faults
while in NMI (see trace below). This happens if called in softirq
context and if the stack is empty. The address at ®s->sp is then
out of range.
Fixing this by checking if regs and ®s->sp are in the same stack
context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct
thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.

On x86-64 syscall exit, 3 non exclusive events may happen
looping in the following order:
1) Check if we need resched for user preemption, if so call
schedule_user()
2) Check if we have pending signals, if so call do_notify_resume()
3) Check if we do syscall tracing, if so call syscall_trace_leave()
However syscall_trace_leave() has been written assuming it directly
follows the syscall and forget about the above possible 1st and 2nd
steps.
Now schedule_user() and do_notify_resume() exit in RCU user mode
because they have most chances to resume userspace immediately and
this avoids an rcu_user_enter() call in the syscall fast path.
So by the time we call syscall_trace_leave(), we may well be in RCU
user mode. To fix this up, simply call rcu_user_exit() in the beginning
of this function.
This fixes some reported RCU uses in extended quiescent state.

Currently for x86 and x86_32 binaries, fpstate in the user sigframe is copied
to/from the fpstate in the task struct.
And in the case of signal delivery for x86_64 binaries, if the fpstate is live
in the CPU registers, then the live state is copied directly to the user
sigframe. Otherwise fpstate in the task struct is copied to the user sigframe.
During restore, fpstate in the user sigframe is restored directly to the live
CPU registers.
Historically, different code paths led to different bugs. For example,
x86_64 code path was not preemption safe till recently. Also there is lot
of code duplication for support of new features like xsave etc.
Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels.
New strategy is as follows:
Signal delivery: Both for 32/64-bit frames, align the core math frame area to
64bytes as needed by xsave (this where the main fpu/extended state gets copied
to and excludes the legacy compatibility fsave header for the 32-bit [f]xsave
frames). If the state is live, copy the register state directly to the user
frame. If not live, copy the state in the thread struct to the user frame. And
for 32-bit [f]xsave frames, construct the fsave header separately before
the actual [f]xsave area.
Signal return: As the 32-bit frames with [f]xstate has an additional
'fsave' header, copy everything back from the user sigframe to the
fpstate in the task structure and reconstruct the fxstate from the 'fsave'
header (Also user passed pointers may not be correctly aligned for
any attempt to directly restore any partial state). At the next fpstate usage,
everything will be restored to the live CPU registers.
For all the 64-bit frames and the 32-bit fsave frame, restore the state from
the user sigframe directly to the live CPU registers. 64-bit signals always
restored the math frame directly, so we can expect the math frame pointer
to be correctly aligned. For 32-bit fsave frames, there are no alignment
requirements, so we can restore the state directly.
"lat_sig catch" microbenchmark numbers (for x86, x86_64, x86_32 binaries) are
with in the noise range with this change.

When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But
at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add
x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and
copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of
user_regs_struct instead.
Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to

Enable support for seccomp filter on x86:
- syscall_get_arch()
- syscall_get_arguments()
- syscall_rollback()
- syscall_set_return_value()
- SIGSYS siginfo_t support
- secure_computing is called from a ptrace_event()-safe context
- secure_computing return value is checked (see below).
SECCOMP_RET_TRACE and SECCOMP_RET_TRAP may result in seccomp needing to
skip a system call without killing the process. This is done by
returning a non-zero (-1) value from secure_computing. This change
makes x86 respect that return value.
To ensure that minimal kernel code is exposed, a non-zero return value
results in an immediate return to user space (with an invalid syscall
number).

Pull x86 cleanups from Peter Anvin:
"The biggest textual change is the cleanup to use symbolic constants
for x86 trap values.
The only *functional* change and the reason for the x86/x32 dependency
is the move of is_ia32_task() into <asm/thread_info.h> so that it can
be used in other code that needs to understand if a system call comes
from the compat entry point (and therefore uses i386 system call
numbers) or not. One intended user for that is the BPF system call
filter. Moving it out of <asm/compat.h> means we can define it
unconditionally, returning always true on i386."

X32 ptrace is a hybrid of 64bit ptrace and compat ptrace with 32bit
address and longs. It use 64bit ptrace to access the full 64bit
registers. PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR are only allowed to access
segment and debug registers. PTRACE_PEEKUSR returns the lower 32bits
and PTRACE_POKEUSR zero-extends 32bit value to 64bit. It works since
the upper 32bits of segment and debug registers of x32 process are always
zero. GDB only uses PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR to access
segment and debug registers.

While various modules include <asm/i387.h> to get access to things we
actually *intend* for them to use, most of that header file was really
pretty low-level internal stuff that we really don't want to expose to
others.
So split the header file into two: the small exported interfaces remain
in <asm/i387.h>, while the internal definitions that are only used by
core architecture code are now in <asm/fpu-internal.h>.
The guiding principle for this was to expose functions that we export to
modules, and leave them in <asm/i387.h>, while stuff that is used by
task switching or was marked GPL-only is in <asm/fpu-internal.h>.
The fpu-internal.h file could be further split up too, especially since
arch/x86/kvm/ uses some of the remaining stuff for its module. But that
kvm usage should probably be abstracted out a bit, and at least now the
internal FPU accessor functions are much more contained. Even if it
isn't perhaps as contained as it _could_ be.

Every arch calls:
if (unlikely(current->audit_context))
audit_syscall_entry()
which requires knowledge about audit (the existance of audit_context) in
the arch code. Just do it all in static inline in audit.h so that arch's
can remain blissfully ignorant.

The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to
supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was.
Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things
by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating
success or failure. This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid
pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall. The fix is to fix the
layering foolishness. We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it
in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to
determine if the syscall was a success or failure. We also define a generic
is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the
value is < -MAX_ERRNO. This works for arches like x86 which do not use a
separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure.
We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines
instead of macros. The reason is because the audit function must take a void*
for the regs. (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct
pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs). Since the audit
function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the
arch correct structure to dereference it.
The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we
change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure.
THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it
makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs.
In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old
audit code as the return value. But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro
regs_return_value() as regs[3]. I have no idea which one is correct, but this
patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3].
For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the
regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3]. regs->gprs[3] is
always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative
before calling the audit code when appropriate.

The perf_event overflow handler does not receive any caller-derived
argument, so many callers need to resort to looking up the perf_event
in their local data structure. This is ugly and doesn't scale if a
single callback services many perf_events.
Fix by adding a context parameter to perf_event_create_kernel_counter()
(and derived hardware breakpoints APIs) and storing it in the perf_event.
The field can be accessed from the callback as event->overflow_handler_context.

The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.
For the various event classes:
- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
perform wakeups, and hence need 0.
As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).
The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

While the tracer accesses ptrace breakpoints, the child task may
concurrently exit due to a SIGKILL and thus release its breakpoints

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Support for the PMU's BTS features has been upstreamed in
v2.6.32, but we still have the old and disabled ptrace-BTS,
as Linus noticed it not so long ago.
It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without
regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility
needed for perf either.
Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts
was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a
much simpler approach.
So axe all 3000 lines of it. That includes the *locked_memory*()
APIs in mm/mlock.c as well.

When the user enables breakpoints through dr7, he can choose
between "local" or "global" enable bits but given how linux is
implemented, both have the same effect.
That said we don't keep track how the user enabled the breakpoints
so when the user requests the dr7 value, we only translate the
"enabled" status using the global enabled bits. It means that if
the user enabled a breakpoint using the local enabled bit, reading
back dr7 will set the global bit and clear the local one.
Apps like Wine expect a full dr7 POKEUSER/PEEKUSER match for emulated
softwares that implement old reverse engineering protection schemes.
We fix that by keeping track of the whole dr7 value given by the user
in the thread structure to drop this bug. We'll think about
something more proper later.
This fixes a 2.6.32 - 2.6.33-x ptrace regression.

Add the xstate regset support which helps extend the kernel ptrace and the
core-dump interfaces to support AVX state etc.
This regset interface is designed to support all the future state that gets
supported using xsave/xrstor infrastructure.
Looking at the memory layout saved by "xsave", one can't say which state
is represented in the memory layout. This is because if a particular state is
in init state, in the xsave hdr it can be represented by bit '0'. And hence
we can't really say by the xsave header wether a state is in init state or
the state is not saved in the memory layout.
And hence the xsave memory layout available through this regset
interface uses SW usable bytes [464..511] to convey what state is represented
in the memory layout.
First 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..467] will be set to OS enabled xstate
mask(which is same as the 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0).
The note NT_X86_XSTATE represents the extended state information in the
core file, using the above mentioned memory layout.

Some comments misspell "should" or "shouldn't"; this fixes them. No code changes.

Because of dropping function argument syntax from kprobe-tracer,
we don't need this API anymore.

The loop condition is fragile: we compare an unsigned value to zero, and
then decrement it by something larger than one in the loop. All the
callers should be passing in appropriately aligned buffer lengths, but
it's better to just not rely on it, and have some appropriate defensive
loop limits.

Suggested by Roland.
Unlike powepc, x86 always calls tracehook_report_syscall_exit(step) with
step = 0, and sends the trap by hand.
This results in unnecessary SIGTRAP when PTRACE_SINGLESTEP follows the
syscall-exit stop.
Change syscall_trace_leave() to pass the correct "step" argument to
tracehook and remove the send_sigtrap() logic.

Suggested by Roland.
Implement user_single_step_siginfo() for x86. Extract this code from
send_sigtrap().
Since x86 calls tracehook_report_syscall_exit(step => 0) the new helper is
not used yet.

Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling
it, changing its address, type or len, it calls
modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and
racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new
one.
This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint
slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only
supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging
workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle.
So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just
disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it
after if necessary.

struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint
triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty
tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf
as it triggers even when we don't overflow.
We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events
rules, being called only when we overflow.

Drop the callback and task parameters from modify_user_hw_breakpoint().
For now we have no user that need to modify a breakpoint to the point
of changing its handler or its task context.
