      x86/apic/uv: Silence a shift wrapping warning · c4597fd7
      Dan Carpenter authored
      'm_io' is stored in 6 bits so it's a number in the 0-63 range.  Static
      analysis tools complain that 1 << 63 will wrap so I have changed it to
      1ULL << m_io.
      
      This code is over three years old so presumably the bug doesn't happen
      very frequently in real life or someone would have complained by now.

      x86/coredump: Always use user_regs_struct for compat_elf_gregset_t · 7b2dd368

      Commit:
      
        90954e7b ("x86/coredump: Use pr_reg size, rather that TIF_IA32 flag")
      
      changed the coredumping code to construct the elf coredump file according
      to register set size - and that's good: if binary crashes with 32-bit code
      selector, generate 32-bit ELF core, otherwise - 64-bit core.
      
      That was made for restoring 32-bit applications on x86_64: we want
      32-bit application after restore to generate 32-bit ELF dump on crash.
      
      All was quite good and recently I started reworking 32-bit applications
      dumping part of CRIU: now it has two parasites (32 and 64) for seizing
      compat/native tasks, after rework it'll have one parasite, working in
      64-bit mode, to which 32-bit prologue long-jumps during infection.
      
      And while it has worked for my work machine, in VM with
      !CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI during reworking I faced that segfault in 32-bit
      binary, that has long-jumped to 64-bit mode results in dereference
      of garbage:
      
       32-victim[19266]: segfault at f775ef65 ip 00000000f775ef65 sp 00000000f776aa50 error 14
       BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffffffffff
       IP: [<ffffffff81332ce0>] strlen+0x0/0x20
       [...]
       Call Trace:
        [] elf_core_dump+0x11a9/0x1480
        [] do_coredump+0xa6b/0xe60
        [] get_signal+0x1a8/0x5c0
        [] do_signal+0x23/0x660

        [] prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x2f/0x40
        [] retint_user+0x8/0x10
      
      That's because we have 64-bit registers set (with according total size)
      and we're writing it to elf_thread_core_info which has smaller size
      on !CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI. That lead to overwriting ELF notes part.
      
      Tested on 32-, 64-bit ELF crashes and on 32-bit binaries that have
      jumped with 64-bit code selector - all is readable with gdb.

      tile: avoid using clocksource_cyc2ns with absolute cycle count · e658a6f1
      Chris Metcalf authored
      For large values of "mult" and long uptimes, the intermediate
      result of "cycles * mult" can overflow 64 bits.  For example,
      the tile platform calls clocksource_cyc2ns with a 1.2 GHz clock;
      we have mult = 853, and after 208.5 days, we overflow 64 bits.
      
      Since clocksource_cyc2ns() is intended to be used for relative
      cycle counts, not absolute cycle counts, performance is more
      importance than accepting a wider range of cycle values.  So,
      just use mult_frac() directly in tile's sched_clock().
      
      Commit 4cecf6d4 ("sched, x86: Avoid unnecessary overflow
      in sched_clock") by Salman Qazi results in essentially the same
      generated code for x86 as this change does for tile.  In fact,
      a follow-on change by Salman introduced mult_frac() and switched
      to using it, so the C code was largely identical at that point too.
      
      Peter Zijlstra then added mul_u64_u32_shr() and switched x86
      to use it.  This is, in principle, better; by optimizing the
      64x64->64 multiplies to be 32x32->64 multiplies we can potentially
      save some time.  However, the compiler piplines the 64x64->64
      multiplies pretty well, and the conditional branch in the generic
      mul_u64_u32_shr() causes some bubbles in execution, with the
      result that it's pretty much a wash.  If tilegx provided its own
      implementation of mul_u64_u32_shr() without the conditional branch,
      we could potentially save 3 cycles, but that seems like small gain
      for a fair amount of additional build scaffolding; no other platform
      currently provides a mul_u64_u32_shr() override, and tile doesn't
      currently have an <asm/div64.h> header to put the override in.
      
      Additionally, gcc currently has an optimization bug that prevents
      it from recognizing the opportunity to use a 32x32->64 multiply,
      and so the result would be no better than the existing mult_frac()
      until such time as the compiler is fixed.
      
      For now, just using mult_frac() seems like the right answer.

      NFSv4.x: hide array-bounds warning · d55b352b
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      A correct bugfix introduced a harmless warning that shows up with gcc-7:
      
      fs/nfs/callback.c: In function 'nfs_callback_up':
      fs/nfs/callback.c:214:14: error: array subscript is outside array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds]
      
      What happens here is that the 'minorversion == 0' check tells the
      compiler that we assume minorversion can be something other than 0,
      but when CONFIG_NFS_V4_1 is disabled that would be invalid and
      result in an out-of-bounds access.
      
      The added check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NFS_V4_1) tells gcc that this
      really can't happen, which makes the code slightly smaller and also
      avoids the warning.
      
      The bugfix that introduced the warning is marked for stable backports,
      we want this one backported to the same releases.

      perf/x86/intel/uncore: Allow only a single PMU/box within an events group · 033ac60c
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Group validation expects all events to be of the same PMU; however
      is_uncore_pmu() is too wide, it matches _all_ uncore events, even
      across PMUs.
      
      This triggers failure when we group different events from different
      uncore PMUs, like:
      
        perf stat -vv -e '{uncore_cbox_0/config=0x0334/,uncore_qpi_0/event=1/}' -a sleep 1
      
      Fix is_uncore_pmu() by only matching events to the box at hand.
      
      Note that generic code; ran after this step; will disallow this
      mixture of PMU events.

      perf/x86/intel: Cure bogus unwind from PEBS entries · b8000586
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Vince Weaver reported that perf_fuzzer + KASAN detects that PEBS event
      unwinds sometimes do 'weird' things. In particular, we seemed to be
      ending up unwinding from random places on the NMI stack.
      
      While it was somewhat expected that the event record BP,SP would not
      match the interrupt BP,SP in that the interrupt is strictly later than
      the record event, it was overlooked that it could be on an already
      overwritten stack.
      
      Therefore, don't copy the recorded BP,SP over the interrupted BP,SP
      when we need stack unwinds.
      
      Note that its still possible the unwind doesn't full match the actual
      event, as its entirely possible to have done an (I)RET between record
      and interrupt, but on average it should still point in the general
      direction of where the event came from. Also, it's the best we can do,
      considering.
      
      The particular scenario that triggered the bogus NMI stack unwind was
      a PEBS event with very short period, upon enabling the event at the
      tail of the PMI handler (FREEZE_ON_PMI is not used), it instantly
      triggers a record (while still on the NMI stack) which in turn
      triggers the next PMI. This then causes back-to-back NMIs and we'll
      try and unwind the stack-frame from the last NMI, which obviously is
      now overwritten by our own.

      perf/x86: Restore TASK_SIZE check on frame pointer · ae31fe51
      Johannes Weiner authored
      The following commit:
      
        75925e1a ("perf/x86: Optimize stack walk user accesses")
      
      ... switched from copy_from_user_nmi() to __copy_from_user_nmi() with a manual
      access_ok() check.
      
      Unfortunately, copy_from_user_nmi() does an explicit check against TASK_SIZE,
      whereas the access_ok() uses whatever the current address limit of the task is.
      
      We are getting NMIs when __probe_kernel_read() has switched to KERNEL_DS, and
      then see vmalloc faults when we access what looks like pointers into vmalloc
      space:

      Fix this by moving the valid_user_frame() check to before the uaccess

      sched/autogroup: Do not use autogroup->tg in zombie threads · 8e5bfa8c
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      Exactly because for_each_thread() in autogroup_move_group() can't see it
      and update its ->sched_task_group before _put() and possibly free().
      
      So the exiting task needs another sched_move_task() before exit_notify()
      and we need to re-introduce the PF_EXITING (or similar) check removed by
      the previous change for another reason.

      sched/autogroup: Fix autogroup_move_group() to never skip sched_move_task() · 18f649ef
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      The PF_EXITING check in task_wants_autogroup() is no longer needed. Remove
      it, but see the next patch.
      
      However the comment is correct in that autogroup_move_group() must always
      change task_group() for every thread so the sysctl_ check is very wrong;
      we can race with cgroups and even sys_setsid() is not safe because a task
      running with task_group() == ag->tg must participate in refcounting:
      
      	int main(void)
      	{
      		int sctl = open("/proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled", O_WRONLY);
      
      		assert(sctl > 0);
      		if (fork()) {
      			wait(NULL); // destroy the child's ag/tg
      			pause();
      		}
      
      		assert(pwrite(sctl, "1\n", 2, 0) == 2);
      		assert(setsid() > 0);
      		if (fork())
      			pause();
      
      		kill(getppid(), SIGKILL);
      		sleep(1);
      
      		// The child has gone, the grandchild runs with kref == 1
      		assert(pwrite(sctl, "0\n", 2, 0) == 2);
      		assert(setsid() > 0);
      
      		// runs with the freed ag/tg
      		for (;;)
      			sleep(1);
      
      		return 0;
      	}
      
      crashes the kernel. It doesn't really need sleep(1), it doesn't matter if
      autogroup_move_group() actually frees the task_group or this happens later.

      crypto: scatterwalk - Remove unnecessary aliasing check in map_and_copy · c8467f7a
      Herbert Xu authored
      The aliasing check in map_and_copy is no longer necessary because
      the IPsec ESP code no longer provides an IV that points into the
      actual request data.  As this check is now triggering BUG checks
      due to the vmalloced stack code, I'm removing it.

      crypto: algif_hash - Fix result clobbering in recvmsg · 8acf7a10
      Herbert Xu authored
      Recently an init call was added to hash_recvmsg so as to reset
      the hash state in case a sendmsg call was never made.
      
      Unfortunately this ended up clobbering the result if the previous
      sendmsg was done with a MSG_MORE flag.  This patch fixes it by
      excluding that case when we make the init call.

       "A few more ARM fixes:
      
         - the assembly backtrace code suffers problems with the new printk()
           implementation which assumes that kernel messages without KERN_CONT
           should have newlines inserted between them. Fix this.
         - fix a section naming error - ".init.text" rather than ".text.init"
         - preallocate DMA debug memory at core_initcall() time rather than
           fs_initcall(), as we have some core drivers that need to use DMA
           mapping - and that triggers a kernel warning from the DMA debug
           code.
         - fix XIP kernels after the ro_after_init changes made this data
           permanently read-only"

      tipc: eliminate obsolete socket locking policy description · 51b9a31c
      Jon Paul Maloy authored
      The comment block in socket.c describing the locking policy is
      obsolete, and does not reflect current reality. We remove it in this
      commit.
      
      Since the current locking policy is much simpler and follows a
      mainstream approach, we see no need to add a new description.
