Martin Schwidefsky ef280c859f s390: move sys_call_table and last_break from thread_info to thread_struct
Move the last two architecture specific fields from the thread_info
structure to the thread_struct. All that is left in thread_info is
the flags field.

James Hogan 68c5cf5a60 s390: Define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH for ARCH_DLINFO
AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH should be defined with the maximum number of
NEW_AUX_ENT entries that ARCH_DLINFO can contain, but it wasn't defined
for s390 at all even though ARCH_DLINFO can contain one NEW_AUX_ENT when
VDSO is enabled.

This shouldn't be a problem as AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE includes space for
AT_BASE_PLATFORM which s390 doesn't use, but lets define it now and add
the comment above ARCH_DLINFO as found in several other architectures to
remind future modifiers of ARCH_DLINFO to keep AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH up to
date.

David Hildenbrand 7f16d7e787 s390: show virtualization support in /proc/cpuinfo
This patch exposes the SIE capability (aka virtualization support) via
/proc/cpuinfo -> "features" as "sie".

As we don't want to expose this hwcap via elf, let's add a second,
"internal"/non-elf capability list. The content is simply concatenated
to the existing features when printing /proc/cpuinfo.

We also add the defines to elf.h to keep the hwcap stuff at a common
place.

Martin Schwidefsky c7e8b2c21c s390: avoid cache aliasing under z/VM and KVM
commit 1f6b83e5e4 ("s390: avoid z13 cache aliasing") checks for the
machine type to optimize address space randomization and zero page
allocation to avoid cache aliases.

This check might fail under a hypervisor with migration support.
z/VMs "Single System Image and Live Guest Relocation" facility will
"fake" the machine type of the oldest system in the group. For example
in a group of zEC12 and Z13 the guest appears to run on a zEC12
(architecture fencing within the relocation domain)

Remove the machine type detection and always use cache aliasing
rules that are known to work for all machines. These are the z13
aliasing rules.

Kees Cook d1fd836dcf mm: split ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR
This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips,
powerpc, and x86.  The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from
the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as
well (mmap), and vice versa.  Further details and a PoC of this attack
is available here:

  http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html

With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR
region:

The change is to add a call the newly created arch_mmap_rnd() into the
ELF loader for handling ET_DYN ASLR in a separate region from mmap ASLR,
as was already done on s390.  Removes CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE,
which is no longer needed.

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.

The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e58 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.

Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

Michael Holzheu a62bc07392 s390/kdump: add support for vector extension
With this patch for kdump the s390 vector registers are stored into the
prepared save areas in the old kernel and into the REGSET_VX_LOW and
REGSET_VX_HIGH ELF notes for /proc/vmcore in the new kernel.

The NT_S390_VXRS_LOW note contains the lower halves of the first 16 vector
registers 0-15. The higher halves are stored in the floating point register
ELF note.  The NT_S390_VXRS_HIGH contains the full vector registers 16-31.

The kernel provides a save area for storing vector register in case of
machine checks. A pointer to this save are is stored in the CPU lowcore
at offset 0x11b0. This save area is also used to save the registers for
kdump. In case of a dumped crashed kdump those areas are used to extract
the registers of the production system.

The vector registers for remote CPUs are stored using the "store additional
status at address" SIGP. For the dump CPU the vector registers are stored
with the VSTM instruction.

With this patch also zfcpdump stores the vector registers.

Martin Schwidefsky 043d07084b [S390] Remove data execution protection
The noexec support on s390 does not rely on a bit in the page table
entry but utilizes the secondary space mode to distinguish between
memory accesses for instructions vs. data. The noexec code relies
on the assumption that the cpu will always use the secondary space
page table for data accesses while it is running in the secondary
space mode. Up to the z9-109 class machines this has been the case.
Unfortunately this is not true anymore with z10 and later machines.
The load-relative-long instructions lrl, lgrl and lgfrl access the
memory operand using the same addressing-space mode that has been
used to fetch the instruction.
This breaks the noexec mode for all user space binaries compiled
with march=z10 or later. The only option is to remove the current
noexec support.

Heiko Carstens 9046e401e7 [S390] mmap: consider stack address randomization
Consider stack address randomization when calulating mmap_base for
flexible mmap layout . Because of address randomization the stack
address can be up to 8MB lower than STACK_TOP.
When calculating mmap_base this isn't taken into account, which could
lead to the case that the gap between the real stack top and mmap_base
is lower than what ulimit specifies for the maximum stack size.

Christoph Hellwig 698ba7b5a3 elf: kill USE_ELF_CORE_DUMP
Currently all architectures but microblaze unconditionally define
USE_ELF_CORE_DUMP.  The microblaze omission seems like an error to me, so
let's kill this ifdef and make sure we are the same everywhere.

Heiko Carstens 03e4c49f84 [S390] personality: fix personality loss on execve
Use the personality() macro to mask out all bits that are not
relevant for the personality type.
The personality field contains bits for other things as well,
so without masking out the not relevalent bits the comparison
won't do what is expected.
