Borislav Petkov 6ede31e030 x86, msr: msrs_alloc/free for CONFIG_SMP=n
Randy Dunlap reported the following build error:

"When CONFIG_SMP=n, CONFIG_X86_MSR=m:

ERROR: "msrs_free" [drivers/edac/amd64_edac_mod.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "msrs_alloc" [drivers/edac/amd64_edac_mod.ko] undefined!"

This is due to the fact that <arch/x86/lib/msr.c> is conditioned on
CONFIG_SMP and in the UP case we have only the stubs in the header.
Fork off SMP functionality into a new file (msr-smp.c) and build
msrs_{alloc,free} unconditionally.

Borislav Petkov 505422517d x86, msr: Add support for non-contiguous cpumasks
The current rd/wrmsr_on_cpus helpers assume that the supplied
cpumasks are contiguous. However, there are machines out there
like some K8 multinode Opterons which have a non-contiguous core
enumeration on each node (e.g. cores 0,2 on node 0 instead of 0,1), see
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1160268.

This patch fixes out-of-bounds writes (see URL above) by adding per-CPU
msr structs which are used on the respective cores.

Additionally, two helpers, msrs_{alloc,free}, are provided for use by
the callers of the MSR accessors.

Frederic Weisbecker 3c93ca00ee x86: Add missing might_fault() checks to copy_{to,from}_user()
On x86-64, copy_[to|from]_user() rely on assembly routines that
never call might_fault(), making us missing various lockdep
checks.

This doesn't apply to __copy_from,to_user() that explicitly
handle these calls, neither is it a problem in x86-32 where
copy_to,from_user() rely on the "__" prefixed versions that
also call might_fault().

Jan Beulich 1472248583 x86-64: __copy_from_user_inatomic() adjustments
This v2.6.26 commit:

    ad2fc2c: x86: fix copy_user on x86

rendered __copy_from_user_inatomic() identical to
copy_user_generic(), yet didn't make the former just call the
latter from an inline function.

Furthermore, this v2.6.19 commit:

    b885808: [PATCH] Add proper sparse __user casts to __copy_to_user_inatomic

converted the return type of __copy_to_user_inatomic() from
unsigned long to int, but didn't do the same to
__copy_from_user_inatomic().

uses the last immediate byte as an opcode extension byte, x86
insn just treats the extenstion byte as an immediate byte

"0x0f 0x0f" bytes.)

Users who are interested in analyzing 3DNow! opcode still can
decode it by analyzing the immediate byte.

Arjan van de Ven 4a31276930 x86: Turn the copy_from_user check into an (optional) compile time warning
A previous patch added the buffer size check to copy_from_user().

One of the things learned from analyzing the result of the previous
patch is that in general, gcc is really good at proving that the
code contains sufficient security checks to not need to do a
runtime check. But that for those cases where gcc could not prove
this, there was a relatively high percentage of real security
issues.

This patch turns the case of "gcc cannot prove" into a compile time
warning, as long as a sufficiently new gcc is in use that supports
this. The objective is that these warnings will trigger developers
checking new cases out before a security hole enters a linux kernel
release.

Arjan van de Ven 79e1dd05d1 x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()
cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code.

cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there,
but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking.

This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that
uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on
all modern systems.

Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback
is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems
are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

Arjan van de Ven 9f0cf4adb6 x86: Use __builtin_object_size() to validate the buffer size for copy_from_user()
gcc (4.x) supports the __builtin_object_size() builtin, which
reports the size of an object that a pointer point to, when known
at compile time. If the buffer size is not known at compile time, a
constant -1 is returned.

This patch uses this feature to add a sanity check to
copy_from_user(); if the target buffer is known to be smaller than
the copy size, the copy is aborted and a WARNing is emitted in
memory debug mode.

These extra checks compile away when the object size is not known,
or if both the buffer size and the copy length are constants.

Change msr-reg.o to obj-y (it will be included in virtually every

msr.ko can use them; on uniprocessors we bypass the helper functions
in msr.o and use the accessor functions directly via inlines.

Masami Hiramatsu eb13296cfa x86: Instruction decoder API
Add x86 instruction decoder to arch-specific libraries. This decoder
can decode x86 instructions used in kernel into prefix, opcode, modrm,
sib, displacement and immediates. This can also show the length of
instructions.

This version introduces instruction attributes for decoding
instructions.
The instruction attribute tables are generated from the opcode map file
(x86-opcode-map.txt) by the generator script(gen-insn-attr-x86.awk).

Currently, the opcode maps are based on opcode maps in Intel(R) 64 and
IA-32 Architectures Software Developers Manual Vol.2: Appendix.A,
and consist of below two types of opcode tables.

1-byte/2-bytes/3-bytes opcodes, which has 256 elements, are
written as below;

 Table: table-name
 Referrer: escaped-name
 opcode: mnemonic|GrpXXX [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...]
  (or)
 opcode: escape # escaped-name
 EndTable

Group opcodes, which has 8 elements, are written as below;

 GrpTable: GrpXXX
 reg:  mnemonic [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...]
 EndTable

These opcode maps include a few SSE and FP opcodes (for setup), because
those opcodes are used in the kernel.

Ingo Molnar 824975ef19 x86: atomic64: Improve atomic64_add_return()
Linus noted (based on Eric Dumazet's numbers) that we would
probably be better off not trying an atomic_read() in
atomic64_add_return() but intead intentionally let the first
cmpxchg8b fail - to get a cache-friendly 'give me ownership
of this cacheline' transaction. That can then be followed
by the real cmpxchg8b which sets the value local to the CPU.
