The Intel documentation at
http://software.intel.com/file/36945
shows the ANDN opcode and Group 17 with encoding f2 and f3 encoding
respectively. The current version of x86-opcode-map.txt shows them
with f3 and f4. Unless someone can point to documentation which shows
the currently used encoding the following patch be applied.

The arch/x86/lib/x86-opcode-map.txt file [used by the
kprobes instruction decoder] contains the line:
af: SCAS/W/D/Q rAX,Xv
This is what the Intel manuals show, but it's not correct.
The 'X' stands for:
Memory addressed by the DS:rSI register pair (for example, MOVS, CMPS, OUTS, or LODS).
On the other hand 'Y' means (also see the ae byte entry for
SCASB):
Memory addressed by the ES:rDI register pair (for example, MOVS, CMPS, INS, STOS, or SCAS).

For reducing memory usage of attribute table, x86 instruction
decoder puts "Group" attribute only on "no-last-prefix"
attribute table (same as vex_p == 0 case).
Thus, the decoder should look no-last-prefix table first, and
then only if it is not a group, move on to "with-last-prefix"
table (vex_p != 0).
However, current implementation, inat_get_avx_attribute()
looks with-last-prefix directly. So, when decoding
a grouped AVX instruction, the decoder fails to find correct
group because there is no "Group" attribute on the table.
This ends up with the mis-decoding of instructions, as Ingo
reported in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1214103
This patch fixes it to check no-last-prefix table first
even if that is an AVX instruction, and get an attribute from
"with last-prefix" table only if that is not a group.

With the write lock path simply subtracting RW_LOCK_BIAS there
is, on large systems, the theoretical possibility of overflowing
the 32-bit value that was used so far (namely if 128 or more
CPUs manage to do the subtraction, but don't get to do the
inverse addition in the failure path quickly enough).
A first measure is to modify RW_LOCK_BIAS itself - with the new
value chosen, it is good for up to 2048 CPUs each allowed to
nest over 2048 times on the read path without causing an issue.
Quite possibly it would even be sufficient to adjust the bias a
little further, assuming that allowing for significantly less
nesting would suffice.
However, as the original value chosen allowed for even more
nesting levels, to support more than 2048 CPUs (possible
currently only for 64-bit kernels) the lock itself gets widened
to 64 bits.

As reported in BZ #30352:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30352
there's a kernel bug related to reading the last allowed page on x86_64.
The _copy_to_user() and _copy_from_user() functions use the following
check for address limit:
if (buf + size >= limit)
fail();
while it should be more permissive:
if (buf + size > limit)
fail();
That's because the size represents the number of bytes being
read/write from/to buf address AND including the buf address.
So the copy function will actually never touch the limit
address even if "buf + size == limit".
Following program fails to use the last page as buffer
due to the wrong limit check:
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <assert.h>
#define PAGE_SIZE (4096)
#define LAST_PAGE ((void*)(0x7fffffffe000))
int main()
{
int fds[2], err;
void * ptr = mmap(LAST_PAGE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
assert(ptr == LAST_PAGE);
err = socketpair(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fds);
assert(err == 0);
err = send(fds[0], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, 0);
perror("send");
assert(err == PAGE_SIZE);
err = recv(fds[1], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, MSG_WAITALL);
perror("recv");
assert(err == PAGE_SIZE);
return 0;
}
The other place checking the addr limit is the access_ok() function,
which is working properly. There's just a misleading comment
for the __range_not_ok() macro - which this patch fixes as well.
The last page of the user-space address range is a guard page and
Brian Gerst observed that the guard page itself due to an erratum on K8 cpus
(#121 Sequential Execution Across Non-Canonical Boundary Causes Processor
Hang).
However, the test code is using the last valid page before the guard page.
The bug is that the last byte before the guard page can't be read
because of the off-by-one error. The guard page is left in place.
This bug would normally not show up because the last page is
part of the process stack and never accessed via syscalls.

All read operations after allocation stage can run speculatively,
all write operation will run in program order, and if addresses are
different read may run before older write operation, otherwise wait
until write commit. However CPU don't check each address bit,
so read could fail to recognize different address even they
are in different page.For example if rsi is 0xf004, rdi is 0xe008,
in following operation there will generate big performance latency.
1. movq (%rsi), %rax
2. movq %rax, (%rdi)
3. movq 8(%rsi), %rax
4. movq %rax, 8(%rdi)
If %rsi and rdi were in really the same meory page, there are TRUE
read-after-write dependence because instruction 2 write 0x008 and
instruction 3 read 0x00c, the two address are overlap partially.
Actually there are in different page and no any issues,
but without checking each address bit CPU could think they are
in the same page, and instruction 3 have to wait for instruction 2
to write data into cache from write buffer, then load data from cache,
the cost time read spent is equal to mfence instruction. We may avoid it by
tuning operation sequence as follow.
1. movq 8(%rsi), %rax
2. movq %rax, 8(%rdi)
3. movq (%rsi), %rax
4. movq %rax, (%rdi)
Instruction 3 read 0x004, instruction 2 write address 0x010, no any
dependence. At last on Core2 we gain 1.83x speedup compared with
original instruction sequence. In this patch we first handle small
size(less 20bytes), then jump to different copy mode. Based on our
micro-benchmark small bytes from 1 to 127 bytes, we got up to 2X
improvement, and up to 1.5X improvement for 1024 bytes on Corei7. (We
use our micro-benchmark, and will do further test according to your

We already have cpufeature indicies above 255, so use a 16-bit number
for the alternatives index. This consumes a padding field and so
doesn't add any size, but it means that abusing the padding field to
create assembly errors on overflow no longer works. We can retain the
test simply by redirecting it to the .discard section, however.

This patch replaces atomic64_32.c with two assembly implementations,
one for 386/486 machines using pushf/cli/popf and one for 586+ machines
using cmpxchg8b.
The cmpxchg8b implementation provides the following advantages over the
current one:
1. Implements atomic64_add_unless, atomic64_dec_if_positive and
atomic64_inc_not_zero
2. Uses the ZF flag changed by cmpxchg8b instead of doing a comparison
3. Uses custom register calling conventions that reduce or eliminate
register moves to suit cmpxchg8b
4. Reads the initial value instead of using cmpxchg8b to do that.
Currently we use lock xaddl and movl, which seems the fastest.
5. Does not use the lock prefix for atomic64_set
64-bit writes are already atomic, so we don't need that.
We still need it for atomic64_read to avoid restoring a value
changed in the meantime.
6. Allocates registers as well or better than gcc
The 386 implementation provides support for 386 and 486 machines.
386/486 SMP is not supported (we dropped it), but such support can be
added easily if desired.
A pure assembly implementation is required due to the custom calling
conventions, and desire to use %ebp in atomic64_add_return (we need
7 registers...), as well as the ability to use pushf/popf in the 386
code without an intermediate pop/push.
The parameter names are changed to match the convention in atomic_64.h
Changes in v3 (due to rebasing to tip/x86/asm):
- Patches atomic64_32.h instead of atomic_32.h
- Uses the CALL alternative mechanism from commit
1b1d925818
Changes in v2:
- Merged 386 and cx8 support in the same patch
- 386 support now done in assembly, C code no longer used at all
- cmpxchg64 is used for atomic64_cmpxchg
- stop using macros, use one-line inline functions instead
- miscellanous changes and improvements

This one is much faster than the spinlock based fallback rwsem code,
with certain artifical benchmarks having shown 300%+ improvement on
threaded page faults etc.
Again, note the 32767-thread limit here. So this really does need that
whole "make rwsem_count_t be 64-bit and fix the BIAS values to match"
extension on top of it, but that is conceptually a totally independent
issue.
NOT TESTED! The original patch that this all was based on were tested by
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki, but maybe I screwed up something when I created the
cleaned-up series, so caveat emptor..
Also note that it _may_ be a good idea to mark some more registers
clobbered on x86-64 in the inline asms instead of saving/restoring them.
They are inline functions, but they are only used in places where there
are not a lot of live registers _anyway_, so doing for example the
clobbers of %r8-%r11 in the asm wouldn't make the fast-path code any
worse, and would make the slow-path code smaller.
(Not that the slow-path really matters to that degree. Saving a few
unnecessary registers is the _least_ of our problems when we hit the slow
path. The instruction/cycle counting really only matters in the fast
path).

In order to avoid unnecessary chains of branches, rather than
implementing memcpy()/memset()'s access to their alternative
implementations via a jump, patch the (larger) original function
directly.
The memcpy() part of this is slightly subtle: while alternative
instruction patching does itself use memcpy(), with the
replacement block being less than 64-bytes in size the main loop
of the original function doesn't get used for copying memcpy_c()
over memcpy(), and hence we can safely write over its beginning.
Also note that the CFI annotations are fine for both variants of
each of the functions.

In order to avoid unnecessary chains of branches, rather than
implementing copy_user_generic() as a function consisting of
just a single (possibly patched) branch, instead properly deal
with patching call instructions in the alternative instructions
framework, and move the patching into the callers.
As a follow-on, one could also introduce something like
__EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALT() to avoid patching call sites in modules.

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1160268.
This patch fixes out-of-bounds writes (see URL above) by adding per-CPU
msr structs which are used on the respective cores.
Additionally, two helpers, msrs_{alloc,free}, are provided for use by
the callers of the MSR accessors.

Add AMD prefetch and 3DNow! opcode including FEMMS. Since 3DNow!
uses the last immediate byte as an opcode extension byte, x86

instead of a part of opcode (insn_get_opcode() decodes first

A previous patch added the buffer size check to copy_from_user().
One of the things learned from analyzing the result of the previous
patch is that in general, gcc is really good at proving that the
code contains sufficient security checks to not need to do a
runtime check. But that for those cases where gcc could not prove
this, there was a relatively high percentage of real security
issues.
This patch turns the case of "gcc cannot prove" into a compile time
warning, as long as a sufficiently new gcc is in use that supports
this. The objective is that these warnings will trigger developers
checking new cases out before a security hole enters a linux kernel
release.

cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code.
cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there,
but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking.
This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that
uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on
all modern systems.
Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback
is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems
are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

gcc (4.x) supports the __builtin_object_size() builtin, which
reports the size of an object that a pointer point to, when known
at compile time. If the buffer size is not known at compile time, a
constant -1 is returned.
This patch uses this feature to add a sanity check to
copy_from_user(); if the target buffer is known to be smaller than
the copy size, the copy is aborted and a WARNing is emitted in
memory debug mode.
These extra checks compile away when the object size is not known,
or if both the buffer size and the copy length are constants.

Change msr-reg.o to obj-y (it will be included in virtually every
kernel since it is used by the initialization code for AMD processors)
and add a separate C file to export its symbols to modules, so that
msr.ko can use them; on uniprocessors we bypass the helper functions
in msr.o and use the accessor functions directly via inlines.
