Make it possible to use the Control Flow Integrity (CFI) sanitizer when
Rust is enabled. Enabling CFI with Rust requires that CFI is configured
to normalize integer types so that all integer types of the same size
and signedness are compatible under CFI.

Rust and C use the same LLVM backend for code generation, so Rust KCFI
is compatible with the KCFI used in the kernel for C. In the case of
FineIBT, CFI also depends on -Zpatchable-function-entry for rewriting
the function prologue, so we set that flag for Rust as well. The flag
for FineIBT requires rustc 1.80.0 or later, so include a Kconfig
requirement for that.

Enabling Rust will select CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS because the flag
is required to use Rust with CFI. Using select rather than `depends on`
avoids the case where Rust is not visible in menuconfig due to
CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS not being enabled. One disadvantage of
select is that RUST must `depends on` all of the things that
CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS depends on to avoid invalid configurations.

Alice has been using KCFI on her phone for several months, so it is
reasonably well tested on arm64.

<title>cfi: add CONFIG_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ce4a2620985cdf06c200ec0b6dce80374237697c</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce a Kconfig option for enabling the experimental option to
normalize integer types. This ensures that integer types of the same
size and signedness are considered compatible by the Control Flow
Integrity sanitizer.

The security impact of this flag is minimal. When Sami Tolvanen looked
into it, he found that integer normalization reduced the number of
unique type hashes in the kernel by ~1%, which is acceptable.

This option exists for compatibility with Rust, as C and Rust do not
have the same set of integer types. There are cases where C has two
different integer types of the same size and signedness, but Rust only
has one integer type of that size and signedness. When Rust calls into
C functions using such types in their signature, this results in CFI
failures. One example is 'unsigned long long' and 'unsigned long' which
are both 64-bit on LP64 targets, so on those targets this flag will give
both types the same CFI tag.

This flag changes the ABI heavily. It is not applied automatically when
CONFIG_RUST is turned on to make sure that the CONFIG_RUST option does
not change the ABI of C code. For example, some build may need to make
other changes atomically with toggling this flag. Having it be a
separate option makes it possible to first turn on normalized integer
tags, and then later turn on CONFIG_RUST.

Similarly, when turning on CONFIG_RUST in a build, you may need a few
attempts where the RUST=y commit gets reverted a few times. It is
inconvenient if reverting RUST=y also requires reverting the changes you
made to support normalized integer tags.

To avoid having this flag impact builds that don't care about this, the
next patch in this series will make CONFIG_RUST turn on this option
using `select` rather than `depends on`.

<title>rust: support for shadow call stack sanitizer</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d077242d68a31075ef5f5da041bf8f6fc19aa231</id>
<content type='text'>
Add all of the flags that are needed to support the shadow call stack
(SCS) sanitizer with Rust, and updates Kconfig to allow only
configurations that work.

The -Zfixed-x18 flag is required to use SCS on arm64, and requires rustc
version 1.80.0 or greater. This restriction is reflected in Kconfig.

When CONFIG_DYNAMIC_SCS is enabled, the build will be configured to
include unwind tables in the build artifacts. Dynamic SCS uses the
unwind tables at boot to find all places that need to be patched. The
-Cforce-unwind-tables=y flag ensures that unwind tables are available
for Rust code.

In non-dynamic mode, the -Zsanitizer=shadow-call-stack flag is what
enables the SCS sanitizer. Using this flag requires rustc version 1.82.0
or greater on the targets used by Rust in the kernel. This restriction
is reflected in Kconfig.

It is possible to avoid the requirement of rustc 1.80.0 by using
-Ctarget-feature=+reserve-x18 instead of -Zfixed-x18. However, this flag
emits a warning during the build, so this patch does not add support for
using it and instead requires 1.80.0 or greater.

The dependency is placed on `select HAVE_RUST` to avoid a situation
where enabling Rust silently turns off the sanitizer. Instead, turning
on the sanitizer results in Rust being disabled. We generally do not
want changes to CONFIG_RUST to result in any mitigations being changed
or turned off.

At the time of writing, rustc 1.82.0 only exists via the nightly release
channel. There is a chance that the -Zsanitizer=shadow-call-stack flag
will end up needing 1.83.0 instead, but I think it is small.

The Rust compiler added support for `-Zfunction-return=thunk-extern` [1]
in 1.76.0 [2], i.e. the equivalent of `-mfunction-return=thunk-extern`.
Thus add support for `MITIGATION_RETHUNK`.

Without this, `objtool` would warn if enabled for Rust and already warns
under IBT builds, e.g.:

    samples/rust/rust_print.o: warning: objtool:
    _R...init+0xa5c: 'naked' return found in RETHUNK build

<id>urn:sha1:284a3ac4a96c619af269dfbdef5431a9a2a34d3b</id>
<content type='text'>
Support `MITIGATION_RETPOLINE` by enabling the target features that
Clang does.

The existing target feature being enabled was a leftover from
our old `rust` branch, and it is not enough: the target feature
`retpoline-external-thunk` only implies `retpoline-indirect-calls`, but
not `retpoline-indirect-branches` (see LLVM's `X86.td`), unlike Clang's
flag of the same name `-mretpoline-external-thunk` which does imply both
(see Clang's `lib/Driver/ToolChains/Arch/X86.cpp`).

Without this, `objtool` would complain if enabled for Rust, e.g.:

    rust/core.o: warning: objtool:
    _R...escape_default+0x13: indirect jump found in RETPOLINE build

In addition, change the comment to note that LLVM is the one disabling
jump tables when retpoline is enabled, thus we do not need to use
`-Zno-jump-tables` for Rust here -- see commit c58f2166ab39 ("Introduce
the "retpoline" x86 mitigation technique ...") [1]:

    The goal is simple: avoid generating code which contains an indirect
    branch that could have its prediction poisoned by an attacker. In
    many cases, the compiler can simply use directed conditional
    branches and a small search tree. LLVM already has support for
    lowering switches in this way and the first step of this patch is
    to disable jump-table lowering of switches and introduce a pass to
    rewrite explicit indirectbr sequences into a switch over integers.

As well as a live example at [2].

These should be eventually enabled via `-Ctarget-feature` when `rustc`
starts recognizing them (or via a new dedicated flag) [3].

Evan Green &lt;evan@rivosinc.com&gt; says:

The CPUPERF0 hwprobe key was documented and identified in code as
a bitmask value, but its contents were an enum. This produced
incorrect behavior in conjunction with the WHICH_CPUS hwprobe flag.
The first patch in this series fixes the bitmask/enum problem by
creating a new hwprobe key that returns the same data, but is
properly described as a value instead of a bitmask. The second patch
renames the value definitions in preparation for adding vector misaligned
access info. As of this version, the old defines are kept in place to
maintain source compatibility with older userspace programs.
