x86/doublefault/32: Move #DF stack and TSS to cpu_entry_area
There are three problems with the current layout of the doublefault stack and TSS. First, the TSS is only cacheline-aligned, which is not enough -- if the hardware portion of the TSS (struct x86_hw_tss) crosses a page boundary, horrible things happen [0]. Second, the stack and TSS are global, so simultaneous double faults on different CPUs will cause massive corruption. Third, the whole mechanism won't work if user CR3 is loaded, resulting in a triple fault [1].
Let the doublefault stack and TSS share a page (which prevents the TSS from spanning a page boundary), make it percpu, and move it into cpu_entry_area. Teach the stack dump code about the doublefault stack.
[0] Real hardware will read past the end of the page onto the next *physical* page if a task switch happens. Virtual machines may have any number of bugs, and I would consider it reasonable for a VM to summarily kill the guest if it tries to task-switch to a page-spanning TSS.
[1] Real hardware triple faults. At least some VMs seem to hang. I'm not sure what's going on.

If the kernel oopses while on the trampoline stack, it will print "<SYSENTER>" even if SYSENTER is not involved. That is rather confusing.
The "SYSENTER" stack is used for a lot more than SYSENTER now. Give it a better string to display in stack dumps, and rename the kernel code to match.
Also move the 32-bit code over to the new naming even though it still uses the entry stack only for SYSENTER.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine
License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is 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.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

This causes confusion in the unwinder when it tries to unwind through an empty interrupt stack, where the stack pointer points to the address bordering the two stacks. The unwinder incorrectly thinks it's running on the double fault stack.
Fix this kind of stack border confusion by never considering the beginning address of an exception or interrupt stack to be part of the stack.

x86/debug: Implement __WARN() using UD0
By using "UD0" for WARN()s we remove the function call and its possible __FILE__ and __LINE__ immediate arguments from the instruction stream.
Total image size will not change much, what we win in the instruction stream we'll lose because of the __bug_table entries. Still, saves on I$ footprint and the total image size does go down a bit.

x86/dumpstack: Make stack name tags more comprehensible
NMI stack dumps are bracketed by the following tags:
<NMI> ... <EOE>
The ending tag is kind of confusing if you don't already know what "EOE" means (end of exception). The same ending tag is also used to mark the end of all other exceptions' stacks. For example:
<#DF> ... <EOE>
And similarly, "EOI" is used as the ending tag for interrupts:
<IRQ> ... <EOI>
Change the tags to be more comprehensible by making them symmetrical and more XML-esque:
<NMI> ... </NMI>
<#DF> ... </#DF>
<IRQ> ... </IRQ>

This seems to be an artifact from long ago, and probably isn't needed anymore. It generally just adds noise to the dump, and it can be actively harmful because it leaks kernel addresses.
Linus says:
"The stack dump actually goes back to forever, and it used to be useful back in 1992 or so. But it used to be useful mainly because stacks were simpler and we didn't have very good call traces anyway. I definitely remember having used them - I just do not remember having used them in the last ten+ years.
Of course, it's still true that if you can trigger an oops, you've likely already lost the security game, but since the stack dump is so useless, let's aim to just remove it and make games like the above harder."
This also removes the related 'kstack=' cmdline option and the 'kstack_depth_to_print' sysctl.

x86/dumpstack: Convert show_trace_log_lvl() to use the new unwinder
Convert show_trace_log_lvl() to use the new unwinder. dump_trace() has been deprecated.
show_trace_log_lvl() is special compared to other users of the unwinder. It's the only place where both reliable *and* unreliable addresses are needed. With frame pointers enabled, most callers of the unwinder don't want to know about unreliable addresses. But in this case, when we're dumping the stack to the console because something presumably went wrong, the unreliable addresses are useful:
- They show stale data on the stack which can provide useful clues.
- If something goes wrong with the unwinder, or if frame pointers are corrupt or missing, all the stack addresses still get shown.
So in order to show all addresses on the stack, and at the same time figure out which addresses are reliable, we have to do the scanning and the unwinding in parallel.
The scanning is done with the help of get_stack_info() to traverse the stacks. The unwinding is done separately by the new unwinder.
In theory we could simplify show_trace_log_lvl() by instead pushing some of this logic into the unwind code. But then we would need some kind of "fake" frame logic in the unwinder which would add a lot of complexity and wouldn't be worth it in order to support only one user.
Another benefit of this approach is that once we have a DWARF unwinder, we should be able to just plug it in with minimal impact to this code.
Another change here is that callers of show_trace_log_lvl() don't need to provide the 'bp' argument. The unwinder already finds the relevant frame pointer by unwinding until it reaches the first frame after the provided stack pointer.

x86/dumpstack: Remove NULL task pointer convention
show_stack_log_lvl() and friends allow a NULL pointer for the task_struct to indicate the current task. This creates confusion and can cause sneaky bugs.
Instead require the caller to pass 'current' directly.
This only changes the internal workings of the dumpstack code. The dump_trace() and show_stack() interfaces still allow a NULL task pointer. Those interfaces should also probably be fixed as well.

x86/dumpstack: Add recursion checking for all stacks
in_exception_stack() has some recursion checking which makes sure the stack trace code never traverses a given exception stack more than once. This prevents an infinite loop if corruption somehow causes a stack's "next stack" pointer to point to itself (directly or indirectly).
The recursion checking can be useful for other stacks in addition to the exception stack, so extend it to work for all stacks.

x86/dumpstack: Add support for unwinding empty IRQ stacks
When an interrupt happens in entry code while running on a software IRQ stack, and the IRQ stack was empty, regs->sp will contain the stack end address (e.g., irq_stack_ptr). If the regs are passed to dump_trace(), get_stack_info() will report STACK_TYPE_UNKNOWN, causing dump_trace() to return prematurely without trying to go to the next stack.
Update the bounds checking for software interrupt stacks so that the ending address is now considered part of the stack.
This means that it's now possible for the 'walk_stack' callbacks -- print_context_stack() and print_context_stack_bp() -- to be called with an empty stack. But that's fine; they're already prepared to deal with that due to their on_stack() checks.

valid_stack_ptr() is buggy: it assumes that all stacks are of size THREAD_SIZE, which is not true for exception stacks. So the walk_stack() callbacks will need to know the location of the beginning of the stack as well as the end.
Another issue is that in general the various features of a stack (type, size, next stack pointer, description string) are scattered around in various places throughout the stack dump code.
Encapsulate all that information in a single place with a new stack_info struct and a get_stack_info() interface.
