Add arm64_force_sig_mceerr for consistency with arm64_force_sig_fault, and use it in the one location that can take advantage of it. This removes the fiddly filling out of siginfo before sending a signal reporting an memory error to userspace. Reviewed-by:

As this work is truly common between all of the signal sending cases there is no need to repeat it between the different cases. Reviewed-by:

Not all of the signals passed to __do_user_fault can be handled the same way so expand the now tiny __do_user_fault in it's callers and remove it. Reviewed-by:

It gets easy to confuse what is going on when some code is shared and some not so stop sharing the trivial bits of signal generation to make future updates easier to understand. Reviewed-by:

These two cases are practically the same and use siginfo differently from the other signals sent from do_page_fault. So consolidate them to make future changes easier. Reviewed-by:

This pepares for sending signals with something other than arm64_force_sig_info. Reviewed-by:
-
Eric W. Biederman authored
Filling in siginfo is error prone and so it is wise to use more specialized helpers to do that work. Factor out the arm specific unhandled signal reporting from the work of delivering a signal so the code can be modified to use functions that take the information to fill out siginfo as parameters.

Every caller passes in current for tsk so there is no need to pass tsk. Instead make tsk a local variable initialized to current. Reviewed-by:

Instead of generating a struct siginfo before calling arm64_notify_die pass the signal number, tne sicode and the fault address into arm64_notify_die and have it call force_sig_fault instead of force_sig_info to let the generic code generate the struct siginfo. This keeps code passing just the needed information into siginfo generating code, making it easier to see what is happening and harder to get wrong. Further by letting the generic code handle the generation of struct siginfo it reduces the number of sites generating struct siginfo making it possible to review them and verify that all of the fiddly details for a structure passed to userspace are handled properly.

Call force_sig_pkuerr directly instead of rolling it by hand in _exception_pkey. Reviewed-by:
-
Eric W. Biederman authored
Now that _exception no longer calls _exception_pkey it is no longer necessary to handle any signal with any si_code. All pkey exceptions are SIGSEGV with paired with SEGV_PKUERR. So just handle that case and remove the now unnecessary parameters from _exception_pkey. Reviewed-by:

Eric W. Biederman authored
The callers of _exception don't need the pkey exception logic because they are not processing a pkey exception. So just call exception_common directly and then call force_sig_fault to generate the appropriate siginfo and deliver the appropriate signal. Reviewed-by:
-
Eric W. Biederman authored
It is brittle and wrong to populate si_pkey when there was not a pkey exception. The field does not exist for all si_codes and in some cases another field exists in the same memory location. So factor out the code that all exceptions handlers must run into exception_common, leaving the individual exception handlers to generate the signals themselves. Reviewed-by:

Now that bad_key_fault_exception no longer calls __bad_area_nosemaphore there is no reason for __bad_area_nosemaphore to handle pkeys. Reviewed-by:

Now that si_code == SEGV_PKUERR is the flag indicating that a pkey is present there is no longer a need to pass a pointer to a local pkey value, instead pkey can be passed more efficiently by value. Reviewed-by:

Eric W. Biederman authored
Now that the pkey handling has been removed force_sig_info_fault and force_sig_fault perform identical work. Just the type of the address paramter is different. So replace calls to force_sig_info_fault with calls to force_sig_fault, and remove force_sig_info_fault. Reviewed-by:

There is only one code path that can generate a pkuerr signal. That code path calls __bad_area_nosemaphore and can be dectected by testing if si_code == SEGV_PKUERR. It can be seen from inspection that all of the other tests in fill_sig_info_pkey are unnecessary. Therefore call force_sig_pkuerr directly from __bad_area_semaphore and remove fill_sig_info_pkey. At the same time move the comment above force_sig_info_pkey into bad_area_access_error, so that the documentation about pkey generation races is not lost. Reviewed-by:

Eric W. Biederman authored
There is only one caller of __bad_area that passes in PKUERR and thus will generate a siginfo with si_pkey set. Therefore simplify the logic and hoist reading of vma_pkey up into that caller, and just pass *pkey into __bad_area. Reviewed-by:

The function do_sigbus never sets si_code to PKUERR so it can never return a pkey to userspace. Therefore remove the unusable pkey parameter from do_sigbus. Reviewed-by:

Update the DO_ERROR macro to take si_code and si_addr values for a siginfo, removing the need for the fill_trap_info function. Update do_trap to also take the sicode and si_addr values for a sigininfo and modify the code to call force_sig when a sicode is not passed in and to call force_sig_fault when all of the information is present. Making this a more obvious, simpler and less error prone construction. Reviewed-by:

The function "force_sig(sig, tsk)" is equivalent to " force_sig_info(sig, SEND_SIG_PRIV, tsk)". Using the siginfo variants can be error prone so use the simpler old fashioned force_sig variant, and with luck the force_sig_info variant can go away. Reviewed-by:

Instead of generating the siginfo in x86 specific code use the new helper function force_sig_bnderr to separate the concerns of collecting the information and generating a proper siginfo. Making the code easier to understand and maintain. Reviewed-by:

The function do_trap_no_signal embodies almost all of the work of the function do_trap. The exceptions are setting of thread.error_code and thread.trap_nr in the case when the signal will be sent, and reporting which signal will be sent with show_signal. Filling in struct siginfo and then calling do_trap is problematic as filling in struct siginfo is an fiddly process that can through inattention has resulted in fields not initialized and the wrong fields being filled in. To avoid this error prone situation I am replacing force_sig_info with a set of functions that take as arguments the information needed to send a specific kind of signal. The function do_trap is called in the context of several different kinds of signals today. Having a solid do_trap_no_signal that can be reused allows call sites that send different kinds of signals to reuse all of the code in do_trap_no_signal. Modify do_trap_no_signal to have a single exit there signals where be sent (aka returning -1) to allow more of the signal sending path to be moved to from do_trap to do_trap_no_signal. Move setting thread.trap_nr and thread.error_code into do_trap_no_signal so the code does not need to be duplicated. Make the type of the string that is passed into do_trap_no_signal to const. The only user of that str is die and it already takes a const string, so this just makes it explicit that the string won't change. All of this prepares the way for using do_trap_no_signal outside of do_trap. Reviewed-by:

The value passed in to addr_referenced is of type void __user *, so update the addr_referenced parameter in trace_mpx_bounds_register_exception to match. Also update the addr_referenced paramater in TP_STRUCT__entry as it again holdes the same value. I don't know why this was missed earlier but sparse was complaining when testing test branch so fix this now. Reviewed-by:

Only the call from do_sigbus will send SIGBUS due to a memory machine check error. Consolidate all of the machine check signal generation code in do_sigbus and remove the now unnecessary fault parameter from force_sig_info_fault. Explicitly use the now constant si_code BUS_ADRERR in the call to force_sig_info_fault from do_sigbus. This makes the code in arch/x86/mm/fault.c easier to follower and simpler to maintain.
