Pull Kbuild fixes from Nathan Chancellor:
- Split out .modinfo section from ELF_DETAILS macro, as that macro may
be used in other areas that expect to discard .modinfo, breaking
certain image layouts
- Adjust genksyms parser to handle optional attributes in certain
declarations, necessary after commit 07919126ecfc ("netfilter:
annotate NAT helper hook pointers with __rcu")
- Include resolve_btfids in external module build created by
scripts/package/install-extmod-build when it may be run on external
modules
- Avoid removing objtool binary with 'make clean', as it is required
for external module builds

Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].
Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.
Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.
As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Loongarch:
- Add more CPUCFG mask bits
- Improve feature detection
- Add lazy load support for FPU and binary translation (LBT) register
state
- Fix return value for memory reads from and writes to in-kernel
devices
- Add support for detecting preemption from within a guest
- Add KVM steal time test case to tools/selftests
ARM:
- Add support for FEAT_IDST, allowing ID registers that are not
implemented to be reported as a normal trap rather than as an UNDEF
exception
- Add sanitisation of the VTCR_EL2 register, fixing a number of
UXN/PXN/XN bugs in the process
- Full handling of RESx bits, instead of only RES0, and resulting in
SCTLR_EL2 being added to the list of sanitised registers
- More pKVM fixes for features that are not supposed to be exposed to
guests
- Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
the ability to attack the hypervisor
- Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'
encoding
- Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the
guest
- Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support
- A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators
stored in guest data structures
- A small set of FPSIMD cleanups
- Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
allocation
- Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes
RISC-V:
- Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(), and
kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()
- Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM
- Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables
- Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables
- Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests
- Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests
s390:
- Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)
- Completely new memory management. s390 was a special snowflake that
enlisted help from the architecture's page table management to
build hypervisor page tables, in particular enabling sharing the
last level of page tables. This however was a lot of code (~3K
lines) in order to support KVM, and also blocked several features.
The biggest advantages is that the page size of userspace is
completely independent of the page size used by the guest:
userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and hugetlbfs as it sees fit,
and in fact transparent hugepages were not possible before. It's
also now possible to have nested guests and guests with huge pages
running on the same host
- Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci
- Small quality of life improvement for protected guests
x86:
- Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware
(contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing
direct access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).
KVM still intercepts access to control registers, e.g. to enforce
event filtering and to prevent the guest from profiling sensitive
host state. This is more accurate, since it has no risk of
contention and thus dropped events, and also has significantly less
overhead.
For more information, see the commit message for merge commit
bf2c3138ae36 ("Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.20' ...")
- Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all
the same reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first
KVM_RUN
- Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV
MSRs when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled,
even if those were advertised as supported to userspace,
- Fix a bug with protected guest state (SEV-ES/SNP and TDX) VMs,
where KVM would attempt to read CR3 configuring an async #PF entry
- Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM
(for x86 only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL.
Only a few exports that are intended for external usage, and those
are allowed explicitly
- When checking nested events after a vCPU is unblocked, ignore
-EBUSY instead of WARNing. Userspace can sometimes put the vCPU
into what should be an impossible state, and spurious exit to
userspace on -EBUSY does not really do anything to solve the issue
- Also throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being
blocked when vCPU is in Wait-For-SIPI, which also resulted in
playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller stuffing architecturally
impossible states into KVM
- Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything
beyond enumerating feature flags to userspace
- Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2
- Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the
intended setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to
unexpected changes in KVM's golden configuration
- Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI
broadcasts when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest
(currently limited to split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC).
Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an
option as some userspaces have come to rely on KVM's buggy behavior
(KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective of whether or
not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs)
- Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty
- Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's
unused ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered
by the guest and/or user, and all of which were useless
- Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to
make it more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to
allow fropping these RTC shenanigans if CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=n
- Bury all of ioapic.h, i8254.h and related ioctls (including
KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP) behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y
- Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes
- Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in
kvm_apic_update_apicv() to consolidate the updates, and to
co-locate SVI updates with the updates for KVM's own cache of ISR
information
- Drop a dead function declaration
- Minor cleanups
x86 (Intel):
- Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to
temporarily switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until
the next nested VM-Exit.
The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several bugs,
was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
"struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans
- Fix an SGX bug where KVM would incorrectly try to handle EPCM page
faults, and instead always reflect them into the guest. Since KVM
doesn't shadow EPCM entries, EPCM violations cannot be due to KVM
interference and can't be resolved by KVM
- Fix a bug where KVM would register its posted interrupt wakeup
handler even if loading kvm-intel.ko ultimately failed
- Disallow access to vmcb12 fields that aren't fully supported,
mostly to avoid weirdness and complexity for FRED and other
features, where KVM wants enable VMCS shadowing for fields that
conditionally exist
- Print out the "bad" offsets and values if kvm-intel.ko refuses to
load (or refuses to online a CPU) due to a VMCS config mismatch
x86 (AMD):
- Drop a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() failure
- Add support for virtualizing ERAPS. Note, correct virtualization of
ERAPS relies on an upcoming, publicly announced change in the APM
to reduce the set of conditions where hardware (i.e. KVM) *must*
flush the RAP
- Ignore nSVM intercepts for instructions that are not supported
according to L1's virtual CPU model
- Add support for expedited writes to the fast MMIO bus, a la VMX's
fastpath for EPT Misconfig
- Don't set GIF when clearing EFER.SVME, as GIF exists independently
of SVM, and allow userspace to restore nested state with GIF=0
- Treat exit_code as an unsigned 64-bit value through all of KVM
- Add support for fetching SNP certificates from userspace
- Fix a bug where KVM would use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 when
emulating VMLOAD or VMSAVE on behalf of L2
- Misc fixes and cleanups
x86 selftests:
- Add a regression test for TPR<=>CR8 synchronization and IRQ masking
- Overhaul selftest's MMU infrastructure to genericize stage-2 MMU
support, and extend x86's infrastructure to support EPT and NPT
(for L2 guests)
- Extend several nested VMX tests to also cover nested SVM
- Add a selftest for nested VMLOAD/VMSAVE
- Rework the nested dirty log test, originally added as a regression
test for PML where KVM logged L2 GPAs instead of L1 GPAs, to
improve test coverage and to hopefully make the test easier to
understand and maintain
guest_memfd:
- Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked
hugepage handling. SEV/SNP was the only user of the tracking and it
can do it via the RMP
- Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that
KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the
source page to be 4KiB aligned, to avoid non-trivial complexity for
something that no known VMM seems to be doing and to avoid an API
special case for in-place conversion, which simply can't support
unaligned sources
- When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common
code and pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead
of letting vendor code do the heavy lifting. Doing so avoids a
looming deadlock bug with in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee
mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap invalidate lock
Generic:
- Fix a bug where KVM would ignore the vCPU's selected address space
when creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory. Actually
this bug could not be hit even on x86, the only architecture with
multiple address spaces, but it's a bug nevertheless"

KVM mediated PMU support for 6.20
Add support for mediated PMUs, where KVM gives the guest full ownership of PMU
hardware (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allows direct
access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model), but intercepts
access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to prevent the
guest from profiling sensitive host state.
To keep overall complexity reasonable, mediated PMU usage is all or nothing
for a given instance of KVM (controlled via module param). The Mediated PMU
is disabled default, partly to maintain backwards compatilibity for existing
setup, partly because there are tradeoffs when running with a mediated PMU that
may be non-starters for some use cases, e.g. the host loses the ability to
profile guests with mediated PMUs, the fastpath run loop is also a blind spot,
entry/exit transitions are more expensive, etc.
Versus the emulated PMU, where KVM is "just another perf user", the mediated
PMU delivers more accurate profiling and monitoring (no risk of contention and
thus dropped events), with significantly less overhead (fewer exits and faster
emulation/programming of event selectors) E.g. when running Specint-2017 on
a single-socket Sapphire Rapids with 56 cores and no-SMT, and using perf from
within the guest:
Perf command:
a. basic-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 6-instructions -a --overwrite
b. multiplex-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 10-instructions -a --overwrite
Guest performance overhead:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Test case | emulated vPMU | all passthrough | passthrough with |
| | | | event filters |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| basic-sampling | 33.62% | 4.24% | 6.21% |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| multiplex-sampling | 79.32% | 7.34% | 10.45% |

Pull SoC devicetree updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"There are a handful of new SoCs this time, all of these are more or
less related to chips in a wider family:
- SpacemiT Key Stone K3 is an 8-core risc-v chip, and the first
widely available RVA23 implementation. Note that this is entirely
unrelated with the similarly named Texas Instruments K3 chip family
that follwed the TI Keystone2 SoC.
- The Realtek Kent family of SoCs contains three chip models
rtd1501s, rtd1861b and rtd1920s, and is related to their earlier
Set-top-box and NAS products such as rtd1619, but is built on newer
Arm Cortex-A78 cores.
- The Qualcomm Milos family includes the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 (SM7635)
mobile phone SoC built around Armv9 Kryo cores of the Arm
Cortex-A720 generation. This one is used in the Fairphone Gen 6
- Qualcomm Kaanapali is a new SoC based around eight high performance
Oryon CPU cores
- NXP i.MX8QP and i.MX952 are both feature reduced versions of chips
we already support, i.e. the i.MX8QM and i.MX952, with fewer CPU
cores and I/O interfaces.
As part of a cleanup, a number of SoC specific devicetree files got
removed because they did not have a single board using the .dtsi files
and they were never compile tested as a result: Samsung s3c6400, ST
spear320s, ST stm32mp21xc/stm32mp23xc/stm32mp25xc, Renesas
r8a779m0/r8a779m2/r8a779m4/r8a779m6/r8a779m7/r8a779m8/r8a779mb/
r9a07g044c1/r9a07g044l1/r9a07g054l1/r9a09g047e37, and TI
am3703/am3715. All of these could be restored easily if a new board
gets merged.
Broadcom/Cavium/Marvell ThunderX2 gets removed along with its only
machine, as all remaining users are assumed to be using ACPI based
firmware.
A relatively small number of 43 boards get added this time, and almost
all of them for arm64. Aside from the reference boards for the newly
added SoCs, this includes:
- Three server boards use 32-bit ASpeed BMCs
- One more reference board for 32-bit Microchip LAN9668
- 64-bit Arm single-board computers based on Amlogic s905y4, CIX
sky1, NXP ls1028a/imx8mn/imx8mp/imx91/imx93/imx95, Qualcomm
qcs6490/qrb2210 and Rockchip rk3568/rk3588s
- Carrier board for SOMs using Intel agilex5, Marvell Armada 7020,
NXP iMX8QP, Mediatek mt8370/mt8390 and rockchip rk3588
- Two mobile phones using Snapdragon 845
- A gaming device and a NAS box, both based on Rockchips rk356x
On top of the newly added boards and SoCs, there is a lot of
background activity going into cleanups, in particular towards getting
a warning-free dtc build, and the usual work on adding support for
more hardware on the previously added machines"

"x86 PMU driver updates:
- Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs
(Dapeng Mi)
Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's been
a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
- Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to replace the
Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
- New PEBS data source encoding layout
- Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
- Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for Intel Diamond
Rapids (DMR) CPUs (Zide Chen)
This centers around these four main areas:
- DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies. Each CBB and each IMH
die has its own discovery domain.
- Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
- DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA, UBR,
PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
- IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
- Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang and
Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
- Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL) CPUs,
which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake (Zide Chen)
- Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
(aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
Airmont code (Martin Schiller)
Performance enhancements:
- Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls
(Jan H. Schönherr)
- Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks (Namhyung Kim)
User-space stack unwinding support:
- Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize the
unwinding code for other architectures (Jens Remus)

- Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
- Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
- Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)

ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a
recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature
algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization.
The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there
are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that
might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually.
- Improve the AES library:
- Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and
decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code.
Enable these optimizations by default.
- Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about
half as much memory as a bidirectional key.
- Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a
single one.
- Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented. Remove the
"nhpoly1305" crypto_shash in favor of direct lib/crypto/ support for

Optimize the generic strlen implementation by using a pre-decrement
pointer. This reduces the loop body from 4 instructions to 3 and
eliminates the unconditional jump ('j').
Old loop (4 instructions, 2 branches):
1: lbu t0, 0(t1); beqz t0, 2f; addi t1, t1, 1; j 1b
New loop (3 instructions, 1 branch):
1: addi t1, t1, 1; lbu t0, 0(t1); bnez t0, 1b
This change improves execution efficiency and reduces branch pressure
for systems without the Zbb extension.

Add strict validation for vector csr registers when setting them via
ptrace:
- reject attempts to set reserved bits or invalid field combinations
- enforce strict VL checks against calculated VLMAX values
Vector specs 0.7.1 and 1.0 allow normal applications to set candidate
VL values and read back the hardware-adjusted results, see section 6
for details. Disallow such flexibility in vector ptrace operations
and strictly enforce valid VL input.
The traced process may not update its saved vector context if no vector
instructions execute between breakpoints. So the purpose of the strict
ptrace approach is to make sure that debuggers maintain an accurate view
of the tracee's vector context across multiple halt/resume debug cycles.

The vstate in thread_struct is zeroed when the vector context is
initialized. That includes read-only register vlenb, which holds
the vector register length in bytes. Zeroed state persists until
mstatus.VS becomes 'dirty' and a context switch saves the actual
hardware values.
This can expose the zero vlenb value to the user-space in early
debug scenarios, e.g. when ptrace attaches to a traced process
early, before any vector instruction except the first one was
executed.
Fix this by specifying proper vlenb on vector context init.

Currently, KVM assumes the minimum of implemented HGEIE bits and
"BIT(gc->guest_index_bits) - 1" as the number of guest files available
across all CPUs. This will not work when CPUs have different number
of guest files because KVM may incorrectly allocate a guest file on a
CPU with fewer guest files.
To address above, during initialization, calculate the number of
available guest interrupt files according to MMIO resources and
constrain the number of guest interrupt files that can be allocated
by KVM.

kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update() assumes that the vCPU IMSIC state has
already been initialized and unconditionally accesses imsic->vsfile_lock.
However, in fuzzed ioctl sequences, the AIA device may be initialized at
the VM level while the per-vCPU IMSIC state is still NULL.
This leads to invalid access when entering the vCPU run loop before
IMSIC initialization has completed.
The crash manifests as:

crash occurs when userspace calls KVM_HAS_DEVICE_ATTR ioctl on an
AIA IMSIC device before the IMSIC state has been fully initialized
for a vcpu.
The crash manifests as:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address
dfffffff00000001
...
epc : kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr+0x464/0x50e

kvm_device_ioctl+0x296/0x374 virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:4739
...
The fix adds a check to return -ENODEV if imsic_state is NULL, which
is consistent with other error handling in the function and prevents
the null pointer dereference.

Currently, ptrace returns EINVAL when the vector extension is supported
but not yet activated for the traced process. This error code is not
always appropriate since the ptrace arguments may be valid.
Debug tools like gdbserver expect ENODATA when the requested register
set is not active, e.g. see [1]. This expectation seems to be more
appropriate, so modify the vector ptrace implementation to return:
- EINVAL when V extension is not supported
- ENODATA when V extension is supported but not active

This patch creates a Kconfig fragment for shadow stack support and
landing pad instruction support. Shadow stack support and landing pad
instruction support can be enabled by selecting
'CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI'. Selecting 'CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI' wires up
the path to enumerate CPU support. If support exists, the kernel will
support CPU-assisted user mode CFI.
If CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is selected, select 'ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS',
'ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK' and 'DYNAMIC_SIGFRAME' for riscv.

Shadow stack instructions are taken from the Zimop ISA extension,
which is mandated on RVA23. Any userspace with shadow stack
instructions in it will fault on hardware that doesn't have support
for Zimop. Thus, a shadow stack-enabled userspace can't be run on
hardware that doesn't support Zimop.
It's not known how Linux userspace providers will respond to this kind
of binary fragmentation. In order to keep kernel portable across
different hardware, 'arch/riscv/kernel/vdso_cfi' is created which has
Makefile logic to compile 'arch/riscv/kernel/vdso' sources with CFI
flags, and 'arch/riscv/kernel/vdso.c' is modified to select the
appropriate vdso depending on whether the underlying CPU implements
the Zimop extension. Since the offset of vdso symbols will change due
to having two different vdso binaries, there is added logic to include
a new generated vdso offset header and dynamically select the offset
(like for rt_sigreturn).

The kernel has to perform shadow stack operations on the user shadow stack.
During signal delivery and sigreturn, the shadow stack token must be
created and validated respectively. Thus shadow stack access for the kernel
must be enabled.
In the future, when kernel shadow stacks are enabled, they must be
enabled as early as possible for better coverage and to prevent any
imbalance between the regular stack and the shadow stack. After
'relocate_enable_mmu' has completed, this is the earliest that it can
be enabled.

Expose a new register type NT_RISCV_USER_CFI for risc-v CFI status and
state. Intentionally, both landing pad and shadow stack status and
state are rolled into the CFI state. Creating two different
NT_RISCV_USER_XXX would not be useful and would waste a note
type. Enabling, disabling and locking the CFI feature is not allowed
via ptrace set interface. However, setting 'elp' state or setting
shadow stack pointer are allowed via the ptrace set interface. It is
expected that 'gdb' might need to fixup 'elp' state or 'shadow stack'
pointer.

Save the shadow stack pointer in the sigcontext structure when
delivering a signal. Restore the shadow stack pointer from sigcontext
on sigreturn.
As part of the save operation, the kernel uses the 'ssamoswap'
instruction to save a snapshot of the current shadow stack on the
shadow stack itself (this can be called a "save token"). During
restore on sigreturn, the kernel retrieves the save token from the top
of the shadow stack and validates it. This ensures that user mode
can't arbitrarily pivot to any shadow stack address without having a
token and thus provides a strong security assurance during the window
between signal delivery and sigreturn.
Use an ABI-compatible way of saving/restoring the shadow stack pointer
into the signal stack. This follows the vector extension, where extra
registers are placed in a form of extension header + extension body in
the stack. The extension header indicates the size of the extra
architectural states plus the size of header itself, and a magic
identifier for the extension. Then, the extension body contains the
new architectural states in the form defined by uapi.

The Zicfiss and Zicfilp extensions introduce a new exception, the
'software check exception', in the privileged ISA, with cause code =
18. This patch implements support for software check exceptions.
Additionally, the patch implements a CFI violation handler which
checks the code in the xtval register. If xtval=2, the software check
exception happened because of an indirect branch that didn't land on a
4 byte aligned PC or on a 'lpad' instruction, or the label value
embedded in 'lpad' didn't match the label value set in the x7
register. If xtval=3, the software check exception happened due to a
mismatch between the link register (x1 or x5) and the top of shadow
stack (on execution of `sspopchk`).
In case of a CFI violation, SIGSEGV is raised with code=SEGV_CPERR.
SEGV_CPERR was introduced by the x86 shadow stack patches.
To keep uprobes working, handle the uprobe event first before
reporting the CFI violation in the software check exception
handler. This is because, when the landing pad is activated, if the
uprobe point is set at the lpad instruction at the beginning of a
function, the system triggers a software check exception instead of an
ebreak exception due to the exception priority. This would prevent
uprobe from working.

Implement an architecture-agnostic prctl() interface for setting and
getting shadow stack status. The prctls implemented are
PR_GET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS, PR_SET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS and
PR_LOCK_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS.
As part of PR_SET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS/PR_GET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS, only
PR_SHADOW_STACK_ENABLE is implemented because RISCV allows each mode to
write to their own shadow stack using 'sspush' or 'ssamoswap'.
PR_LOCK_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS locks the current shadow stack enablement
configuration.

Userspace specifies CLONE_VM to share address space and spawn new
thread. 'clone' allows userspace to specify a new stack for a new
thread. However there is no way to specify a new shadow stack base
address without changing the API. This patch allocates a new shadow
stack whenever CLONE_VM is given.
In case of CLONE_VFORK, the parent is suspended until the child
finishes; thus the child can use the parent's shadow stack. In case of
!CLONE_VM, COW kicks in because entire address space is copied from
parent to child.
'clone3' is extensible and can provide mechanisms for specifying the
shadow stack as an input parameter. This is not settled yet and is
being extensively discussed on the mailing list. Once that's settled,
this code should be adapted.

As discussed extensively in the changelog for the addition of this
syscall on x86 ("x86/shstk: Introduce map_shadow_stack syscall") the
existing mmap() and madvise() syscalls do not map entirely well onto the
security requirements for shadow stack memory since they lead to windows
where memory is allocated but not yet protected or stacks which are not
properly and safely initialised. Instead a new syscall map_shadow_stack()
has been defined which allocates and initialises a shadow stack page.
This patch implements this syscall for riscv. riscv doesn't require
tokens to be setup by kernel because user mode can do that by
itself. However to provide compatibility and portability with other
architectues, user mode can specify token set flag.
