Adds it to the VDSO handling, it's not necessarily a VDSO function but
it behaves as such as it is in every single process. This means we get
to reuse the mapped page for every process when thunks are built,
shaving a page out of 32-bit processes.
Also, fixes a bug in guest VDSO symbol loading where clang sticks all
symbols in to `.dynsym` where gcc sticks them in to `.symtab`. Search
both. This effectively meant the couple of guest VDSO symbols were
always failing to get found, causing us to allocate yet another page on
32-bit. So effectively three pages stolen.
This also means we can remove the Linux specific X86HelperGen stuff from
FEXCore, only passing a single "VDSO" function pointer to the backend
for the dispatcher. Once again moving the Linux stuff to the frontend is
good.
Fixes an assert about about untracked noexec code `NoExec
instruction in entry block: FFFFE000` whenever thunk callbacks were
used.
This mode has been broken for a long time because it's mostly untested.
Barriers, and backpatching while slow have proven that they work.
Maintain the one TSO path, at least until all ARM hardware gains support for
x86-TSO memory model mode.
protects last page of codebuffer. This should cause a
SIGSEGV if we try to access it. Until now it was possible to go over
and access out of bounds.
In addition, there a couple of clang-tidy fixes which should be NFC.
In regular x86 programs, when a signal occurs, the signal will not be handled within the signal handler. However, under FEX's defer signal mechanism, the signal is not immediately masked when it is deferred. When returning to the location that receives the signal and continues processing, the signal might be received again, causing inconsistency between the emulation and the actual program.
Here is an unit test for this patch from ltp:
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/syscalls/timer_settime/timer_settime03.c
Telemetry value address generation was forcing an indirection at all
times which was unnecessary. These values live in the BSS, zero
initialized at process start and is unnecessary.
Instead change the wrapper defines to directly operate on the enum
passed in which saves an indirection on all of these telemetry
operations (except for the ones in the JIT which are required to be PIC
compliant).
This also fixes an annoying warning about
`FEXCORE_TELEMETRY_STATIC_INIT` causing initialization and destruction
order being unspecified, so two wins.
Since the frontend has changed to informing the backend if AVX is
supported, there is no reason to feed that configuration back in to
SignalDelegator from the backend.
Instead inform the SignalDelegator directly in the frontend instead of
this now weird round-about path.
No functional change here.
- CoreRunningMode enum and variable wasn't used anymore.
- Code was moved to the frontend
- CustomCPUFactory wasn't used anymore
- All special signal handling and various features were moved to
TestHarnessRunner
- We also don't want to support actual custom CPU cores.
- TestHarnessRunner just runs as a host runner if compiled on an
x86-64 device if vixl sim isn't enabled now.
- Removes the Core config option entirely.
- Moves VDSOPointers struct to the frontend
- Every use of this lives in the Linux frontend instead now
Seccomp is a relatively complex feature that was added to Linux back in
2005, and was further extended in 2013 to support BPF based protections.
Once seccomp is enabled, you can no longer disable seccomp but
additional protections can be placed on top of existing seccomp filters.
Additionally seccomp filters are inherited in child processes, which
ensures the process tree can't escape from the secure computing
environment through child processes.
The basis of this feature is a shim that lives between userspace and the
kernel at the syscall entrypoint.
In "strict" mode, seccomp only allows read, write, exit, exit_group, and {rt_,}sigreturn to function.
When in "filter" mode, a BPF filter is run on syscall entrypoint and
returns state about if the syscall should be allowed or not. Multiple
filters can be installed in this mode, all of which get executed. The
result that is the most restricted is the action that occurs at the end.
There are some significant limitations in filter mode that must be
adhered to which makes executing this code inside of kernel space a
non-issue and effectively limits how much cpu time is spent in the filters.
Although these filters are free to do basically anything with the
provided data, just can't do any loops.
FEX needs to implement seccomp because there are multiple applications
using the feature, the primary one being Chromium which some games embed
without disabling the sandbox. WINE also uses seccomp for capturing
games that do raw Windows system calls. Apparently Red Dead Redemption
is one of the games that requires this.
While FEX implements seccomp, it is not yet all encompassing, which is
one of the reasons why it isn't enabled by default and requires a config
option.
**seccomp_unotify is not implemented**
This is a relatively new feature for seccomp which lets the seccomp
filter signal an FD for multiple things. Luckily Chromium and WINE don't
use this. This will be tricky to implement under FEX since it
requires ioctl trapping and some other behaviour
**ptrace isn't supported**
One feature of seccomp is that it can raise ptrace events. Since FEX
doesn't support ptrace at all, this isn't handled. Again Chromium and
WINE don't use this.
**kill-thread not quite correct**
This isn't directly related to seccomp but more about how we do thread
shutdown in FEX. This will require some more changes around thread state
tracking before fully supporting this. Chromium and WINE don't use this.
kill-process also falls under this
Features that are supported:
- Strict mode and seccomp-bpf mode supported
- All BFP instructions that seccomp-bpf understands
- Inheriting seccomp through execve
- This means we serialize and deserialize the calling thread's
seccomp filters
- An execve that escapes FEX will also escape seccomp. Not much we
can do about it
- TSync - Allowing post-mortem seccomp insertion which allows threads to
synchronize seccomp filters after the fact
Features that are not supported:
- Different arch qualifiers depending on syscall entrypoint
- Just like our syscall handler, we are hardcoded to the arch that the
application starts with
- user_notif
- ptrace
- Runtime code cache invalidation when seccomp is installed
- Currently we must ensure all syscalls go through the frontend
syscall handler
- Runtime invalidation of code cache with inline syscalls will get
fixed in the future.
This currently isn't enabled by default because of the minor feature
problems that haven't been resolved. Currently the Linux Kernel's test
application works for the features that FEX supports, and WINE's usage
can be handled by FEX. Chromium's sandbox doesn't yet work with this PR,
but it only fails due to features unrelated to seccomp.
Having this open for merging now so we can work to resolve the remaining
issues without this bitrotting.
Two primary things here:
- Remove the static `GlobalDelegator`
- Move the thread_local SignalDelegator::ThreadState information
directly in to ThreadStateObject
Having the ThreadStateObject and the SignalDelegator information
disjoint was confusing but was required when we didn't have any object
in the frontend that could have its own independent data. Since we fixed
this with the `ThreadStateObject` type we can now move this over.
The `GlobalDelegator` object is now instead stored in
`ThreadStateObject` instead.
Instead of using a thread_local variable, we now just consume 8-bytes of
the signal alt-stack since the kernel gives us that information about
where it lives. This then converts all the thread_local usage to use
either the passed in CPU state if it exists, or fetching it from the
alt-stack offset.
Very minor changes in behaviour here, will help when trying to improve
FEX's behaviour around signals.
These are a Linux construct and should live here. Removes a weird
passthrough API from FEXCore and keeps it in the frontend instead.
This isn't even typically allocated in a real setup, as it's only a
fallback for if VDSO isn't loaded.
The CallbackReturn function stays in FEXCore because it would have
caused an API in the other direction instead.
A bit of refactoring necessary before we can move the remaining Linux
specific code to the frontend.
Most of this taken from #3535 but attempting to be NFC as much as
possible.
A feature of FEX's JIT is that when an unaligned atomic load/store
operation occurs, the instructions will be backpatched in to a barrier
plus a non-atomic memory instruction. This is the half-barrier technique
that still ensures correct visibility of loadstores in an unaligned
context.
The problem with this approach is that the dmb instructions are HEAVY,
because they effectively stop the world until all memory operations in
flight are visible. But it is a necessary evil since unaligned atomics
aren't a thing on ARM processors. FEAT_LSE only gives you unaligned
atomics inside of a 16-byte granularity, which doesn't match x86
behaviour of cacheline size (effectively always 64B).
This adds a new TSO option to disable the half-barrier on unaligned
atomic and instead only convert it to a regular loadstore instruction,
ommiting the half-barrier. This gives more insight in to how well a
CPU's LRCPC implementation is by not stalling on DMB instructions when
possible.
Originally implemented as a test to see if this makes Sonic Adventure 2
run full speed with TSO enabled (but all available TSO options disabled)
on NVIDIA Orin. Unfortunately this basically makes the code no longer
stall on dmb instructions and instead just showing how bad the LRCPC
implementation is, since the stalls show up on `ldapur` instructions
instead.
Tested Sonic Adventure 2 on X13s and it ran at 60FPS there without the
hack anyway.
This may be useful for tracking TSO faulting when it manages to fetch
stale data. While most TSO crashes are due to nullptr dereferences, this
can still check for the corruption case.
FEXCore doesn't need track the TLS state of the SignalDelegator, this is
a frontend concept.
Removes the tracking from the backend and keeps it in the frontend.
Which requires moving LinuxEmulation to its own independent folder as
well. Since both IRLoader and FEXLoader rely on it.
No functional change, just moves the the code around.
