jprobe_return seems to have aged badly. Comments referring to
non-existent behaviours, and a dangerous habit of messing
with registers without telling the compiler.
This patches applies the following remedies:
- Fix the comments to describe the actual behaviour
- Tidy up the asm sequence to directly assign the
stack pointer without clobbering extra registers
- Mark the rest of the function as unreachable() so
that the compiler knows that there is no need for
an epilogue
- Stop making jprobe_return_break a global function
(you really don't want to call that guy, and it isn't
even a function).
Tested with tcp_probe.

The MIN_STACK_SIZE macro tries evaluate how much stack space needs
to be saved in the jprobes_stack array, sized at 128 bytes.
When using the IRQ stack, said macro can happily return up to
IRQ_STACK_SIZE, which is 16kB. Mayhem follows.
This patch fixes things by getting rid of the crazy macro and
limiting the copy to be at most the size of the jprobes_stack
array, no matter which stack we're on.

Stepping with PSTATE.D=1 is bad news. The step won't generate a debug
exception and we'll likely walk off into random data structures. This
should never happen, but when it does, it's a PITA to debug. Add a
WARN_ON to shout if we realise this is about to take place.

The pre-handler of this special 'trampoline' kprobe executes the return
probe handler functions and restores original return address in ELR_EL1.
This way the saved pt_regs still hold the original register context to be
carried back to the probed kernel function.

The trampoline code is used by kretprobes to capture a return from a probed
function. This is done by saving the registers, calling the handler, and
restoring the registers. The code then returns to the original saved caller
return address. It is necessary to do this directly instead of using a
software breakpoint because the code used in processing that breakpoint
could itself be kprobe'd and cause a problematic reentry into the debug
exception handler.

Kprobes needs simulation of instructions that cannot be stepped
from a different memory location, e.g.: those instructions
that uses PC-relative addressing. In simulation, the behaviour
of the instruction is implemented using a copy of pt_regs.
The following instruction categories are simulated:
- All branching instructions(conditional, register, and immediate)
- Literal access instructions(load-literal, adr/adrp)
Conditional execution is limited to branching instructions in
ARM v8. If conditions at PSTATE do not match the condition fields
of opcode, the instruction is effectively NOP.
Thanks to Will Cohen for assorted suggested changes.

Add support for basic kernel probes(kprobes) and jump probes
(jprobes) for ARM64.
Kprobes utilizes software breakpoint and single step debug
exceptions supported on ARM v8.
A software breakpoint is placed at the probe address to trap the
kernel execution into the kprobe handler.
ARM v8 supports enabling single stepping before the break exception
return (ERET), with next PC in exception return address (ELR_EL1). The
kprobe handler prepares an executable memory slot for out-of-line
execution with a copy of the original instruction being probed, and
enables single stepping. The PC is set to the out-of-line slot address
before the ERET. With this scheme, the instruction is executed with the
exact same register context except for the PC (and DAIF) registers.
Debug mask (PSTATE.D) is enabled only when single stepping a recursive
kprobe, e.g.: during kprobes reenter so that probed instruction can be
single stepped within the kprobe handler -exception- context.
The recursion depth of kprobe is always 2, i.e. upon probe re-entry,
any further re-entry is prevented by not calling handlers and the case
counted as a missed kprobe).
Single stepping from the x-o-l slot has a drawback for PC-relative accesses
like branching and symbolic literals access as the offset from the new PC
(slot address) may not be ensured to fit in the immediate value of
the opcode. Such instructions need simulation, so reject
probing them.
Instructions generating exceptions or cpu mode change are rejected
for probing.
Exclusive load/store instructions are rejected too. Additionally, the
code is checked to see if it is inside an exclusive load/store sequence
(code from Pratyush).
System instructions are mostly enabled for stepping, except MSR/MRS
accesses to "DAIF" flags in PSTATE, which are not safe for
probing.
This also changes arch/arm64/include/asm/ptrace.h to use
include/asm-generic/ptrace.h.
Thanks to Steve Capper and Pratyush Anand for several suggested
Changes.
