Dynamically enabled features can be requested by any thread of a running process at any time. The request does neither enable the feature nor allocate larger buffers. It just stores the permission to use the feature by adding the features to the permission bitmap and by calculating the required sizes for kernel and user space. The reallocation of the kernel buffer happens when the feature is used for the first time which is caught by an exception. The permission bitmap is then checked and if the feature is permitted, then it becomes fully enabled. If not, the task dies similarly to a task which uses an undefined instruction. The size information is precomputed to allow proper sigaltstack size checks once the feature is permitted, but not yet in use because otherwise this would open race windows where too small stacks could be installed causing a later fail on signal delivery. Initialize them to the default feature set and sizes. Signed-off-by:

For historical reasons MINSIGSTKSZ is a constant which became already too small with AVX512 support. Add a mechanism to enforce strict checking of the sigaltstack size against the real size of the FPU frame. The strict check can be enabled via a config option and can also be controlled via the kernel command line option 'strict_sas_size' independent of the config switch. Enabling it might break existing applications which allocate a too small sigaltstack but 'work' because they never get a signal delivered. Though it can be handy to filter out binaries which are not yet aware of AT_MINSIGSTKSZ. Also the upcoming support for dynamically enabled FPU features requires a strict sanity check to ensure that: - Enabling of a dynamic feature, which changes the sigframe size fits into an enabled sigaltstack - Installing a too small sigaltstack after a dynamic feature has been added is not possible. Implement the base check which is controlled by config and command line options. Signed-off-by: -

New x86 FPU features will be very large, requiring ~10k of stack in signal handlers. These new features require a new approach called "dynamic features". The kernel currently tries to ensure that altstacks are reasonably sized. Right now, on x86, sys_sigaltstack() requires a size of >=2k. However, that 2k is a constant. Simply raising that 2k requirement to >10k for the new features would break existing apps which have a compiled-in size of 2k. Instead of universally enforcing a larger stack, prohibit a process from using dynamic features without properly-sized altstacks. This must be enforced in two places: * A dynamic feature can not be enabled without an large-enough altstack for each process thread. * Once a dynamic feature is enabled, any request to install a too-small altstack will be rejected The dynamic feature enabling code must examine each thread in a process to ensure that the altstacks are large enough. Add a new lock (sigaltstack_lock()) to ensure that threads can not race and change their altstack after being examined. Add the infrastructure in form of a config option and provide empty stubs for architectures which do not need dynamic altstack size checks. This implementation will be fleshed out for x86 in a future patch called x86/arch_prctl: Add controls for dynamic XSTATE components [dhansen: commit message. ] Signed-off-by:

For the upcoming AMX support it's necessary to do a proper integration with KVM. Currently KVM allocates two FPU structs which are used for saving the user state of the vCPU thread and restoring the guest state when entering vcpu_run() and doing the reverse operation before leaving vcpu_run(). With the new fpstate mechanism this can be reduced to one extra buffer by swapping the fpstate pointer in current::thread::fpu. This makes the upcoming support for AMX and XFD simpler because then fpstate information (features, sizes, xfd) are always consistent and it does not require any nasty workarounds. Convert the KVM FPU code over to this new scheme. Signed-off-by:

Provide: - An allocator which initializes the state properly - A replacement for the existing FPU swap mechanim Aside of the reduced memory footprint, this also makes state switching more efficient when TIF_FPU_NEED_LOAD is set. It does not require a memcpy as the state is already correct in the to be swapped out fpstate. The existing interfaces will be removed once KVM is converted over. Signed-off-by:

For the upcoming AMX support it's necessary to do a proper integration with KVM. To avoid more nasty hackery in KVM which violate encapsulation extend struct fpu and fpstate so the fpstate switching can be consolidated and simplified. Currently KVM allocates two FPU structs which are used for saving the user state of the vCPU thread and restoring the guest state when entering vcpu_run() and doing the reverse operation before leaving vcpu_run(). With the new fpstate mechanism this can be reduced to one extra buffer by swapping the fpstate pointer in current::thread::fpu. This makes the upcoming support for AMX and XFD simpler because then fpstate information (features, sizes, xfd) are always consistent and it does not require any nasty workarounds. Add fpu::__task_fpstate to save the regular fpstate pointer while the task is inside vcpu_run(). Add some state fields to fpstate to indicate the nature of the state. Signed-off-by:

xfeatures_mask_fpstate() is no longer valid when dynamically enabled features come into play. Rework restore_regs_from_fpstate() so it takes a constant mask which will then be applied against the maximum feature set so that the restore operation brings all features which are not in the xsave buffer xfeature bitmap into init state. This ensures that if the previous task used a dynamically enabled feature that the task which restores has all unused components properly initialized. Cleanup the last user of xfeatures_mask_fpstate() as well and remove it. Signed-off-by:

Use the new fpu_user_cfg to retrieve the information instead of xfeatures_mask_uabi() which will be no longer correct when dynamically enabled features become available. Using fpu_user_cfg is appropriate when setting XCOMP_BV in the init_fpstate since it has space allocated for "max_features". But, normal fpstates might only have space for default xfeatures. Since XRSTOR* derives the format of the XSAVE buffer from XCOMP_BV, this can lead to XRSTOR reading out of bounds. So when copying actively used fpstate, simply read the XCOMP_BV features bits directly out of the fpstate instead. This correction courtesy of Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by:

If fork fails early then the copied task struct would carry the fpstate pointer of the parent task. Not a problem right now, but later when dynamically allocated buffers are available, keeping the pointer might result in freeing the parent's buffer. Set it to NULL which prevents that. If fork reaches clone_thread(), the pointer will be correctly set to the new task context. Signed-off-by:

New xfeatures will not longer be automatically stored in the regular XSAVE buffer in thread_struct::fpu. The kernel will provide the default sized buffer for storing the regular features up to AVX512 in thread_struct::fpu and if a task requests to use one of the new features then the register storage has to be extended. The state will be accessed via a pointer in thread_struct::fpu which defaults to the builtin storage and can be switched when extended storage is required. To avoid conditionals all over the code, create a new container for the register storage which will gain other information, e.g. size, feature masks etc., later. For now it just contains the register storage, which gives it exactly the same layout as the exiting fpu::state. Stick fpu::state and the new fpu::__fpstate into an anonymous union and initialize the pointer. Add build time checks to validate that both are at the same place and have the same size. This allows step by step conversion of all users. Signed-off-by:
