"Kernel side changes:
- Ftrace is one of the last W^X violators (after this only KLP is
left). These patches move it over to the generic text_poke()
interface and thereby get rid of this oddity. This requires a
surprising amount of surgery, by Peter Zijlstra.
- x86/AMD PMUs: add support for 'Large Increment per Cycle Events' to
count certain types of events that have a special, quirky hw ABI

- kprobes fixes by Masami Hiramatsu
Lots of tooling updates as well, the following subcommands were

Kprobes does something like:
register:
arch_arm_kprobe()
text_poke(INT3)
/* guarantees nothing, INT3 will become visible at some point, maybe */
kprobe_optimizer()
/* guarantees the bytes after INT3 are unused */
synchronize_rcu_tasks();
text_poke_bp(JMP32);
/* implies IPI-sync, kprobe really is enabled */
unregister:
__disarm_kprobe()
unoptimize_kprobe()
text_poke_bp(INT3 + tail);
/* implies IPI-sync, so tail is guaranteed visible */
arch_disarm_kprobe()
text_poke(old);
/* guarantees nothing, old will maybe become visible */
synchronize_rcu()
free-stuff
Now the problem is that on register, the synchronize_rcu_tasks() does
not imply sufficient to guarantee all CPUs have already observed INT3
(although in practice this is exceedingly unlikely not to have
happened) (similar to how MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED does not
imply MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_SYNC_CORE).
Worse, even if it did, we'd have to do 2 synchronize calls to provide
the guarantee we're looking for, the first to ensure INT3 is visible,
the second to guarantee nobody is then still using the instruction
bytes after INT3.
Similar on unregister; the synchronize_rcu() between
__unregister_kprobe_top() and __unregister_kprobe_bottom() does not
guarantee all CPUs are free of the INT3 (and observe the old text).
Therefore, sprinkle some IPI-sync love around. This guarantees that
all CPUs agree on the text and RCU once again provides the required
guaranteed.

Currently pt_regs on x86_32 has an oddity in that kernel regs
(!user_mode(regs)) are short two entries (esp/ss). This means that any
code trying to use them (typically: regs->sp) needs to jump through
some unfortunate hoops.
Change the entry code to fix this up and create a full pt_regs frame.
This then simplifies various trampolines in ftrace and kprobes, the
stack unwinder, ptrace, kdump and kgdb.
Much thanks to Josh for help with the cleanups!

With gcc toplevel assembler statements that do not mark themselves as .text
may end up in other sections. This causes LTO boot crashes because various
assembler statements ended up in the middle of the initcall section. It's
also a latent problem without LTO, although it's currently not known to
cause any real problems.
According to the gcc team it's expected behavior.
Always mark all the top level assembler statements as text so that they
switch to the right section.

Avoid kretprobe recursion loop bg by setting a dummy
kprobes to current_kprobe per-CPU variable.
This bug has been introduced with the asm-coded trampoline
code, since previously it used another kprobe for hooking
the function return placeholder (which only has a nop) and
trampoline handler was called from that kprobe.
This revives the old lost kprobe again.
With this fix, we don't see deadlock anymore.
And you can see that all inner-called kretprobe are skipped.
event_1 235 0
event_2 19375 19612
The 1st column is recorded count and the 2nd is missed count.
Above shows (event_1 rec) + (event_2 rec) ~= (event_2 missed)
(some difference are here because the counter is racy)

"The main changes:

Kosina)
- Micro-optimize and clean up the entry code (Andy Lutomirski)

* 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/speculation: Propagate information about RSB filling mitigation to sysfs
x86/speculation: Enable cross-hyperthread spectre v2 STIBP mitigation

x86/pti/64: Remove the SYSCALL64 entry trampoline
x86/entry/64: Use the TSS sp2 slot for SYSCALL/SYSRET scratch space
x86/entry/64: Document idtentry
The SYSCALL64 trampoline has a couple of nice properties:
- The usual sequence of SWAPGS followed by two GS-relative accesses to
set up RSP is somewhat slow because the GS-relative accesses need
to wait for SWAPGS to finish. The trampoline approach allows
RIP-relative accesses to set up RSP, which avoids the stall.
- The trampoline avoids any percpu access before CR3 is set up,
which means that no percpu memory needs to be mapped in the user
page tables. This prevents using Meltdown to read any percpu memory
outside the cpu_entry_area and prevents using timing leaks
to directly locate the percpu areas.
The downsides of using a trampoline may outweigh the upsides, however.
It adds an extra non-contiguous I$ cache line to system calls, and it
forces an indirect jump to transfer control back to the normal kernel
text after CR3 is set up. The latter is because x86 lacks a 64-bit
direct jump instruction that could jump from the trampoline to the entry
text. With retpolines enabled, the indirect jump is extremely slow.
Change the code to map the percpu TSS into the user page tables to allow
the non-trampoline SYSCALL64 path to work under PTI. This does not add a
new direct information leak, since the TSS is readable by Meltdown from the
cpu_entry_area alias regardless. It does allow a timing attack to locate
the percpu area, but KASLR is more or less a lost cause against local
attack on CPUs vulnerable to Meltdown regardless. As far as I'm concerned,
on current hardware, KASLR is only useful to mitigate remote attacks that
try to attack the kernel without first gaining RCE against a vulnerable
user process.
On Skylake, with CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and KPTI on, this reduces syscall
overhead from ~237ns to ~228ns.
There is a possible alternative approach: Move the trampoline within 2G of
the entry text and make a separate copy for each CPU. This would allow a
direct jump to rejoin the normal entry path. There are pro's and con's for
this approach:
+ It avoids a pipeline stall
- It executes from an extra page and read from another extra page during
the syscall. The latter is because it needs to use a relative
addressing mode to find sp1 -- it's the same *cacheline*, but accessed
using an alias, so it's an extra TLB entry.
- Slightly more memory. This would be one page per CPU for a simple
implementation and 64-ish bytes per CPU or one page per node for a more
complex implementation.
- More code complexity.
The current approach is chosen for simplicity and because the alternative
does not provide a significant benefit, which makes it worth.

Disable the kprobe probing of the entry trampoline:
.entry_trampoline is a code area that is used to ensure page table
isolation between userspace and kernelspace.
At the beginning of the execution of the trampoline, we load the
kernel's CR3 register. This has the effect of enabling the translation
of the kernel virtual addresses to physical addresses. Before this
happens most kernel addresses can not be translated because the running
process' CR3 is still used.
If a kprobe is placed on the trampoline code before that change of the
CR3 register happens the kernel crashes because int3 handling pages are
not accessible.
To fix this, add the .entry_trampoline section to the kprobe blacklist
to prohibit the probing of code before all the kernel pages are
accessible.
