rseq_need_restart() reads and clears task::rseq_event_mask with preemption
disabled to guard against the scheduler.
But membarrier() uses an IPI and sets the PREEMPT bit in the event mask
from the IPI, which leaves that RMW operation unprotected.
Use guard(irq) if CONFIG_MEMBARRIER is enabled to fix that.

The rseq_cs field is documented as being set to 0 by user-space prior to
registration, however this is not currently enforced by the kernel. This
can result in a segfault on return to user-space if the value stored in
the rseq_cs field doesn't point to a valid struct rseq_cs.
The correct solution to this would be to fail the rseq registration when
the rseq_cs field is non-zero. However, some older versions of glibc
will reuse the rseq area of previous threads without clearing the
rseq_cs field and will also terminate the process if the rseq
registration fails in a secondary thread. This wasn't caught in testing
because in this case the leftover rseq_cs does point to a valid struct
rseq_cs.
What we can do is clear the rseq_cs field on registration when it's
non-zero which will prevent segfaults on registration and won't break
the glibc versions that reuse rseq areas on thread creation.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y, at rseq registration the read-only fields are
copied from user-space, if this copy fails the syscall returns -EFAULT
and the registration should not be activated - but it erroneously is.
Move the activation of the registration after the copy of the fields to
fix this bug.

The rseq uapi requires cooperation between users of the rseq fields
to ensure that all libraries and applications using rseq within a
process do not interfere with each other.
This is especially important for fields which are meant to be read-only
from user-space, as documented in uapi/linux/rseq.h:
- cpu_id_start,
- cpu_id,
- node_id,
- mm_cid.
Storing to those fields from a user-space library prevents any sharing
of the rseq ABI with other libraries and applications, as other users
are not aware that the content of those fields has been altered by a
third-party library.
This is unfortunately the current behavior of tcmalloc: it purposefully
overlaps part of a cached value with the cpu_id_start upper bits to get
notified about preemption, because the kernel clears those upper bits
before returning to user-space. This behavior does not conform to the
rseq uapi header ABI.
This prevents tcmalloc from using rseq when rseq is registered by the
GNU C library 2.35+. It requires tcmalloc users to disable glibc rseq
registration with a glibc tunable, which is a sad state of affairs.
Considering that tcmalloc and the GNU C library are the two first
upstream projects using rseq, and that they are already incompatible due
to use of this hack, adding kernel-level validation of all read-only
fields content is necessary to ensure future users of rseq abide by the
rseq ABI requirements.
Validate that user-space does not corrupt the read-only fields and
conform to the rseq uapi header ABI when the kernel is built with
CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y. This is done by storing a copy of the read-only
fields in the task_struct, and validating the prior values present in
user-space before updating them. If the values do not match, print
a warning on the console (printk_ratelimited()).
This is a first step to identify misuses of the rseq ABI by printing
a warning on the console. After a giving some time to userspace to
correct its use of rseq, the plan is to eventually terminate offending
processes with SIGSEGV.
This change is expected to produce warnings for the upstream tcmalloc
implementation, but tcmalloc developers mentioned they were open to
adapt their implementation to kernel-level change.

Adding the NUMA node id to struct rseq is a straightforward thing to do,
and a good way to figure out if anything in the user-space ecosystem
prevents extending struct rseq.
This NUMA node id field allows memory allocators such as tcmalloc to
take advantage of fast access to the current NUMA node id to perform
NUMA-aware memory allocation.
It can also be useful for implementing fast-paths for NUMA-aware
user-space mutexes.
It also allows implementing getcpu(2) purely in user-space.

Introduce the extensible rseq ABI, where the feature size supported by
the kernel and the required alignment are communicated to user-space
through ELF auxiliary vectors.
This allows user-space to call rseq registration with a rseq_len of
either 32 bytes for the original struct rseq size (which includes
padding), or larger.
If rseq_len is larger than 32 bytes, then it must be large enough to
contain the feature size communicated to user-space through ELF
auxiliary vectors.

commit 0190e4198e ("rseq: Deprecate RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags")

rseq_abi()->flags and rseq_abi()->rseq_cs->flags 29 upper bits are
currently unused.
The current behavior when those bits are set is to ignore them. This is
not an ideal behavior, because when future features will start using
those flags, if user-space fails to correctly validate that the kernel
indeed supports those flags (e.g. with a new sys_rseq flags bit) before
using them, it may incorrectly assume that the kernel will handle those
flags way when in fact those will be silently ignored on older kernels.
Validating that unused flags bits are cleared will allow a smoother
transition when those flags will start to be used by allowing
applications to fail early, and obviously, when they attempt to use the
new flags on an older kernel that does not support them.

The rseq rseq_cs.ptr.{ptr32,padding} uapi endianness handling is
entirely wrong on 32-bit little endian: a preprocessor logic mistake
wrongly uses the big endian field layout on 32-bit little endian
architectures.
Fortunately, those ptr32 accessors were never used within the kernel,
and only meant as a convenience for user-space.
Remove those and replace the whole rseq_cs union by a __u64 type, as
this is the only thing really needed to express the ABI. Document how
32-bit architectures are meant to interact with this field.

Invoke rseq's NOTIFY_RESUME handler when processing the flag prior to
transferring to a KVM guest, which is roughly equivalent to an exit to
userspace and processes many of the same pending actions. While the task
cannot be in an rseq critical section as the KVM path is reachable only
by via ioctl(KVM_RUN), the side effects that apply to rseq outside of a
critical section still apply, e.g. the current CPU needs to be updated if
the task is migrated.
Clearing TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME without informing rseq can lead to segfaults
and other badness in userspace VMMs that use rseq in combination with KVM,
e.g. due to the CPU ID being stale after task migration.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.
