S390's init_idle_preempt_count(p, cpu) doesn't actually let us initialize the
preempt_count of the requested CPU's idle task: it unconditionally writes
to the current CPU's. This clearly conflicts with idle_threads_init(),
which intends to initialize *all* the idle tasks, including their
preempt_count (or their CPU's, if the arch uses a per-CPU preempt_count).
Unfortunately, it seems the way s390 does things doesn't let us initialize
every possible CPU's preempt_count early on, as the pages where this
resides are only allocated when a CPU is brought up and are freed when it
is brought down.
Let the arch-specific code set a CPU's preempt_count when its lowcore is
allocated, and turn init_idle_preempt_count() into an empty stub.

Both clang and gcc (for -march=z13 and later) align functions to 16
bytes at -O2 to benefit branch prediction.
Make asm symbols alignment consistent with that.
This also benefits potential ftrace code patching, which is currently
able to patch 8 aligned bytes at once.
With defconfig this currently increases .text size by 4104 bytes.

The existing CALL_ON_STACK() macro allows for subtle bugs:
- There is no type checking of the function that is being called. That
is: missing or too many arguments do not cause any compile error or
warning. The same is true if the return type of the called function
changes. This can lead to quite random bugs.
- Sign and zero extension of arguments is missing. Given that the s390
C ABI requires that the caller of a function performs proper sign
and zero extension this can also lead to subtle bugs.
- If arguments to the CALL_ON_STACK() macros contain functions calls
register corruption can happen due to register asm constructs being
used.
Therefore introduce a new call_on_stack() macro which is supposed to
fix all these problems.

On s390, execve might have to be restarted for PGSTE binaries
like kvm. In the past this was done via the PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART
bit. However, with the recent changes, syscalls are now restarted
differently. Now that execve() is the only call that might get
restarted via PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART, move the loop to do_syscall().
This also has the advantage that the restart is no longer visible

with generic entry, there's a bug when it comes to restarting of signals.
The failing sequence is:
a) a signal is coming in, and no handler is registered, so the lower
part of arch_do_signal_or_restart() in arch/s390/kernel/signal.c
sets PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART.
b) a second signal gets pending while the kernel is still in the exit
loop, and for that one, a handler exists.
c) The first part of arch_do_signal_or_restart() is called. That part
calls handle_signal(), which sets up stack + registers for handling
the signal.
d) __do_syscall() in arch/s390/kernel/syscall.c checks for
PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART right before leaving to userspace. If it is set,
it restart's the syscall. However, the registers are already setup
for handling a signal from c). The syscall is now restarted with the
wrong arguments.
Change the code to:
- use vdso for syscall_restart() instead of PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART because
we cannot rewind and go back to userspace on s390 because the system call
number might be encoded in the svc instruction.
- for all other syscalls we rewind the PSW and return to userspace.

While TCP stack scales reasonably well, there is still one part that
can be used to DDOS it.
IPv6 Packet too big messages have to lookup/insert a new route,
and if abused by attackers, can easily put hosts under high stress,
with many cpus contending on a spinlock while one is stuck in fib6_run_gc()
ip6_protocol_deliver_rcu()
icmpv6_rcv()
icmpv6_notify()
tcp_v6_err()
tcp_v6_mtu_reduced()
inet6_csk_update_pmtu()
ip6_rt_update_pmtu()

Some of our servers have been hit by malicious ICMPv6 packets
trying to _increase_ the MTU/MSS of TCP flows.
We believe these ICMPv6 packets are a result of a bug in one ISP stack,
since they were blindly sent back for _every_ (small) packet sent to them.
These packets are for one TCP flow:
09:24:36.266491 IP6 Addr1 > Victim ICMP6, packet too big, mtu 1460, length 1240
09:24:36.266509 IP6 Addr1 > Victim ICMP6, packet too big, mtu 1460, length 1240
09:24:36.316688 IP6 Addr1 > Victim ICMP6, packet too big, mtu 1460, length 1240
09:24:36.316704 IP6 Addr1 > Victim ICMP6, packet too big, mtu 1460, length 1240
09:24:36.608151 IP6 Addr1 > Victim ICMP6, packet too big, mtu 1460, length 1240
TCP stack can filter some silly requests :
1) MTU below IPV6_MIN_MTU can be filtered early in tcp_v6_err()
2) tcp_v6_mtu_reduced() can drop requests trying to increase current MSS.
This tests happen before the IPv6 routing stack is entered, thus
removing the potential contention and route exhaustion.
Note that IPv6 stack was performing these checks, but too late
(ie : after the route has been added, and after the potential
garbage collect war)

To avoid a race between rmap walk and mremap, mremap does
take_rmap_locks(). The lock was taken to ensure that rmap walk don't miss
a page table entry due to PTE moves via move_pagetables(). The kernel
does further optimization of this lock such that if we are going to find
the newly added vma after the old vma, the rmap lock is not taken. This
is because rmap walk would find the vmas in the same order and if we don't
find the page table attached to older vma we would find it with the new
vma which we would iterate later.
As explained in commit eb66ae0308 ("mremap: properly flush TLB before
releasing the page") mremap is special in that it doesn't take ownership
of the page. The optimized version for PUD/PMD aligned mremap also
doesn't hold the ptl lock. This can result in stale TLB entries as show
below.
This patch updates the rmap locking requirement in mremap to handle the race condition
explained below with optimized mremap::
Optmized PMD move
CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3
mremap(old_addr, new_addr) page_shrinker/try_to_unmap_one
mmap_write_lock_killable()
addr = old_addr
lock(pte_ptl)
lock(pmd_ptl)
pmd = *old_pmd
pmd_clear(old_pmd)
flush_tlb_range(old_addr)
*new_pmd = pmd
*new_addr = 10; and fills
TLB with new addr
and old pfn
unlock(pmd_ptl)
ptep_clear_flush()
old pfn is free.
Stale TLB entry
Optimized PUD move also suffers from a similar race. Both the above race
condition can be fixed if we force mremap path to take rmap lock.

Let's make kernel stacktraces easier to identify by including the build
ID[1] of a module if the stacktrace is printing a symbol from a module.
This makes it simpler for developers to locate a kernel module's full
debuginfo for a particular stacktrace. Combined with
scripts/decode_stracktrace.sh, a developer can download the matching
debuginfo from a debuginfod[2] server and find the exact file and line
number for the functions plus offsets in a stacktrace that match the
module. This is especially useful for pstore crash debugging where the
kernel crashes are recorded in something like console-ramoops and the
recovery kernel/modules are different or the debuginfo doesn't exist on
the device due to space concerns (the debuginfo can be too large for space
limited devices).
Originally, I put this on the %pS format, but that was quickly rejected
given that %pS is used in other places such as ftrace where build IDs
aren't meaningful. There was some discussions on the list to put every
module build ID into the "Modules linked in:" section of the stacktrace
message but that quickly becomes very hard to read once you have more than
three or four modules linked in. It also provides too much information
when we don't expect each module to be traversed in a stacktrace. Having
the build ID for modules that aren't important just makes things messy.
Splitting it to multiple lines for each module quickly explodes the number
of lines printed in an oops too, possibly wrapping the warning off the
console. And finally, trying to stash away each module used in a
callstack to provide the ID of each symbol printed is cumbersome and would
require changes to each architecture to stash away modules and return
their build IDs once unwinding has completed.
Instead, we opt for the simpler approach of introducing new printk formats
'%pS[R]b' for "pointer symbolic backtrace with module build ID" and '%pBb'
for "pointer backtrace with module build ID" and then updating the few
places in the architecture layer where the stacktrace is printed to use
this new format.

Add the running kernel's build ID[1] to the stacktrace information header.
This makes it simpler for developers to locate the vmlinux with full
debuginfo for a particular kernel stacktrace. Combined with
scripts/decode_stracktrace.sh, a developer can download the correct
vmlinux from a debuginfod[2] server and find the exact file and line

This is especially useful for pstore crash debugging where the kernel
crashes are recorded in the pstore logs and the recovery kernel is
different or the debuginfo doesn't exist on the device due to space
concerns (the data can be large and a security concern). The stacktrace
can be analyzed after the crash by using the build ID to find the matching
vmlinux and understand where in the function something went wrong.
