Hi,

This is an RFC v8. Based on the x86/cpu branch in the tip tree.

The 'syscall' instruction on the Intel FRED architecture does not
clobber %rcx and %r11. This behavior leads to an assertion failure in
the sysret_rip selftest because it asserts %r11 = %rflags.

In the previous discussion, we agreed that there are two cases for
'syscall':

  A) 'syscall' in a FRED system preserves %rcx and %r11.

  B) 'syscall' in a non-FRED system sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags.

This series fixes the selftest. Make it work on the Intel FRED
architecture. Also, add more tests to ensure the syscall behavior is
consistent. It must always be (A) or always be (B). Not a mix of them.

See the previous discussion here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]

## Changelog revision

v8:
  - Stop using "+r"(rsp) to avoid the red zone problem because it
    generates the wrong Assembly code (Ammar).
    See: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108799

  - Update commit message (Ammar).

v7:
  - Fix comment, REGS_ERROR no longer exists in the enum (Ammar).

  - Update commit message (Ammar).

v6:
  - Move the check-regs assertion in sigusr1() to check_regs_result() (HPA).

  - Add a new test just like sigusr1(), but don't modify REG_RCX and
    REG_R11. This is used to test SYSRET behavior consistency (HPA).

v5:
  - Fix do_syscall() return value (Ammar).

v4:
  - Fix the assertion condition inside the SIGUSR1 handler (Xin Li).

  - Explain the purpose of patch #2 in the commit message (HPA).

  - Update commit message (Ammar).

  - Repeat test_syscall_rcx_r11_consistent() 32 times to be more sure
    that the result is really consistent (Ammar).

v3:
  - Test that we don't get a mix of REGS_SAVED and REGS_SYSRET, which
    is a major part of the point (HPA).

v2:
  - Use "+r"(rsp) as the right way to avoid redzone problems per
    Andrew's comment (HPA).

The current selftest asserts %r11 == %rflags after the 'syscall' returns
to userspace. However, such an assertion doesn't apply to the Intel FRED
system because, in that system, the 'syscall' instruction does not set
%r11=%rflags and %rcx=%rip.

Handle the FRED system case. Now, test that:

  A) 'syscall' in a FRED system preserves %rcx and %r11.

  B) 'syscall' in a non-FRED system sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags.

Note for the '__raise()' helper:
Those tests must manipulate registers before the 'syscall' instruction
is invoked. However, the current 'raise()' function from libc cannot
accomplish it. Therefore, create a syscall wrapper in inline Assembly to
control them.

There are two cases:

  A) 'syscall' in a FRED system preserves %rcx and %r11.

  B) 'syscall' in a non-FRED system sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags.

When the do_syscall() function is called for the first time, it will
memorize the behavior, either (A) or (B). Then, the next do_syscall()
call will verify that the 'syscall' behavior is the same.

Test them with trivial system calls like __NR_getppid and friends, which
are highly likely to return with SYSRET on an IDT system.

The purposes of this test are:

  - Ensure that the syscall behavior is consistent. It must always be
    (A) or always be (B). Not a mix of them.

  - Ensure that the kernel doesn't leak its internal data when returning
    to userspace.

The current test_sigreturn_to() goes to the slow-path syscall with
IRET due to non-canonical addresses. It uses the SIGUSR1 signal to
perform the test.

Add a similar test that goes to the SYSRET path instead of IRET using
the SIGUSR2 signal. There are two cases:

  A) 'syscall' in a FRED system preserves %rcx and %r11.

  B) 'syscall' in a non-FRED system sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags.

The __raise(SIGUSR2) call verifies the 'syscall' behavior consistency
when dealing with a signal handler. It must always be (A) or always be
(B). Not a mix of them.
