There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS
can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and

This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX.

As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to

stacktrace: move filter_irq_stacks() to kernel/stacktrace.c

filter_irq_stacks() has little to do with the stackdepot implementation,
except that it is usually used by users (such as KASAN) of stackdepot to
reduce the stack trace.

However, filter_irq_stacks() itself is not useful without a stack trace
as obtained by stack_trace_save() and friends.

Therefore, move filter_irq_stacks() to kernel/stacktrace.c, so that new
users of filter_irq_stacks() do not have to start depending on
STACKDEPOT only for filter_irq_stacks().

stacktrace: Remove reliable argument from arch_stack_walk() callback

Currently the callback passed to arch_stack_walk() has an argument called
reliable passed to it to indicate if the stack entry is reliable, a comment
says that this is used by some printk() consumers. However in the current
kernel none of the arch_stack_walk() implementations ever set this flag to
true and the only callback implementation we have is in the generic
stacktrace code which ignores the flag. It therefore appears that this
flag is redundant so we can simplify and clarify things by removing it.

uaccess: add force_uaccess_{begin,end} helpers

Add helpers to wrap the get_fs/set_fs magic for undoing any damange done
by set_fs(KERNEL_DS). There is no real functional benefit, but this
documents the intent of these calls better, and will allow stubbing the
functions out easily for kernels builds that do not allow address space
overrides in the future.

stacktrace: Get rid of unneeded '!!' pattern

My commit b0c51f158455 ("stacktrace: Don't skip first entry on
noncurrent tasks") adds one or zero to skipnr by "!!(current == tsk)".

But the C99 standard says:

The == (equal to) and != (not equal to) operators are
...
Each of the operators yields 1 if the specified relation is true and 0
if it is false.

So there is no need to prepend the above expression by "!!" -- remove it.

stacktrace: Don't skip first entry on noncurrent tasks

When doing cat /proc/<PID>/stack, the output is missing the first entry.
When the current code walks the stack starting in stack_trace_save_tsk,
it skips all scheduler functions (that's OK) plus one more function. But
this one function should be skipped only for the 'current' task as it is
stack_trace_save_tsk proper.

The original code (before the common infrastructure) skipped one
function only for the 'current' task -- see save_stack_trace_tsk before
3599fe12a125. So do so also in the new infrastructure now.

stacktrace: Remove weak version of save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable()

Recent rework of stack trace infrastructure introduced a new set of
helpers for common stack trace operations (commit e9b98e162aa5
("stacktrace: Provide helpers for common stack trace operations") and
related). As a result, save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() is not directly
called anywhere. Livepatch, currently the only user of the reliable
stack trace feature, now calls stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable().

When CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE is set and depending on
CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK, stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() calls either
arch_stack_walk_reliable() or mentioned save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable().
x86_64 defines the former, ppc64le the latter. All other architectures
do not have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and include/linux/stacktrace.h
defines -ENOSYS returning version for them.

In short, stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() returning -ENOSYS defined in
include/linux/stacktrace.h serves the same purpose as the old weak
version of save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() which is therefore no longer
needed.

stacktrace: Unbreak stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable()

Miroslav reported that the livepatch self-tests were failing, specifically
a case in which the consistency model ensures that a current executing
function is not allowed to be patched, "TEST: busy target module".

Recent renovations of stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() left it returning
only an -ERRNO success indication in some configuration combinations:

klp_check_stack()
ret = stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable()
#ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK && CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE
stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable()
ret = arch_stack_walk_reliable()
return 0
return -EINVAL

return ret;
...
if (ret < 0)
/* stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable error */
nr_entries = ret; << 0

Previously (and currently for !CONFIG_ARCH_STACKWALK &&
CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE) stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() returned
the number of entries that it consumed in the passed storage array.

In the case of the above config and trace, be sure to return the
stacktrace_cookie.len on stack_trace_save_tsk_reliable() success.

All architectures which support stacktrace carry duplicated code and

stacktrace: Provide helpers for common stack trace operations

All operations with stack traces are based on struct stack_trace. That's a
horrible construct as the struct is a kitchen sink for input and
output. Quite some usage sites embed it into their own data structures
which creates weird indirections.

There is absolutely no point in doing so. For all use cases a storage array
and the number of valid stack trace entries in the array is sufficient.

Provide helper functions which avoid the struct stack_trace indirection so
the usage sites can be cleaned up.

stacktrace/x86: add function for detecting reliable stack traces

For live patching and possibly other use cases, a stack trace is only
useful if it can be assured that it's completely reliable. Add a new
save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() function to achieve that.

Note that if the target task isn't the current task, and the target task
is allowed to run, then it could be writing the stack while the unwinder
is reading it, resulting in possible corruption. So the caller of
save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() must ensure that the task is either
'current' or inactive.

save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() relies on the x86 unwinder's detection
of pt_regs on the stack. If the pt_regs are not user-mode registers
from a syscall, then they indicate an in-kernel interrupt or exception
(e.g. preemption or a page fault), in which case the stack is considered
unreliable due to the nature of frame pointers.

It also relies on the x86 unwinder's detection of other issues, such as:

- corrupted stack data
- stack grows the wrong way
- stack walk doesn't reach the bottom
- user didn't provide a large enough entries array

Such issues are reported by checking unwind_error() and !unwind_done().

Also add CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE so arch-independent code can
determine at build time whether the function is implemented.

annoying extra newlines, like this:

That's happening because each printk() call now gets printed on its own
line, and we do a separate call to print the spaces before the symbol.
Fix it by doing the printk() directly instead of using the
print_ip_sym() helper.

Additionally, the symbol address isn't very helpful, so let's get rid of
that, too. The final result looks like this:

[ 5.194518] -> #1 (B){+.+...}:
