There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by:

Split kexec_file syscall related code to another file kernel/kexec_file.c so that the #ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE in kexec.c can be dropped. Sharing variables and functions are moved to kernel/kexec_internal.h per suggestion from Vivek and Petr.

On a filesystem like vfat, all files are created with the same owner and mode independent of who created the file. When a vfat filesystem is mounted with root as owner of all files and read access for everyone, root's processes left world-readable coredumps on it (but other users' processes only left empty corefiles when given write access because of the uid mismatch). Given that the old behavior was inconsistent and insecure, I don't see a problem with changing it. Now, all processes refuse to dump core unless the resulting corefile will only be readable by their owner. Signed-off-by:

It was possible for an attacking user to trick root (or another user) into writing his coredumps into an attacker-readable, pre-existing file using rename() or link(), causing the disclosure of secret data from the victim process' virtual memory. Depending on the configuration, it was also possible to trick root into overwriting system files with coredumps. Fix that issue by never writing coredumps into existing files. Requirements for the attack: - The attack only applies if the victim's process has a nonzero RLIMIT_CORE and is dumpable. - The attacker can trick the victim into coredumping into an attacker-writable directory D, either because the core_pattern is relative and the victim's cwd is attacker-writable or because an absolute core_pattern pointing to a world-writable directory is used. - The attacker has one of these: A: on a system with protected_hardlinks=0: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (In practice, there are lots of files that fulfill this condition, e.g. entries in Debian's /var/lib/dpkg/info/.) This does not apply to most Linux systems because most distros set protected_hardlinks=1. B: on a system with protected_hardlinks=1: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable and attacker-writable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (This seems to be uncommon.) C: on any system, independent of protected_hardlinks: write access to a non-sticky folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D (This seems to be uncommon.) The basic idea is that the attacker moves the victim-owned file to where he expects the victim process to dump its core. The victim process dumps its core into the existing file, and the attacker reads the coredump from it. If the attacker can't move the file because he does not have write access to the containing directory, he can instead link the file to a directory he controls, then wait for the original link to the file to be deleted (because the kernel checks that the link count of the corefile is 1). A less reliable variant that requires D to be non-sticky works with link() and does not require deletion of the original link: link() the file into D, but then unlink() it directly before the kernel performs the link count check. On systems with protected_hardlinks=0, this variant allows an attacker to not only gain information from coredumps, but also clobber existing, victim-writable files with coredumps. (This could theoretically lead to a privilege escalation.) Signed-off-by: -

The UMH_WAIT_PROC handler runs in its own thread in order to make sure that waiting for the exec kernel thread completion won't block other usermodehelper queued jobs. On older workqueue implementations, worklets couldn't sleep without blocking the rest of the queue. But now the workqueue subsystem handles that. Khelper still had the older limitation due to its singlethread properties but we replaced it to system unbound workqueues. Those are affine to the current node and can block up to some number of instances. They are a good candidate to handle UMH_WAIT_PROC assuming that we have enough system unbound workers to handle lots of parallel usermodehelper jobs. Signed-off-by:

We need to launch the usermodehelper kernel threads with the widest affinity and this is partly why we use khelper. This workqueue has unbound properties and thus a wide affinity inherited by all its children. Now khelper also has special properties that we aren't much interested in: ordered and singlethread. There is really no need about ordering as all we do is creating kernel threads. This can be done concurrently. And singlethread is a useless limitation as well. The workqueue engine already proposes generic unbound workqueues that don't share these useless properties and handle well parallel jobs. The only worrysome specific is their affinity to the node of the current CPU. It's fine for creating the usermodehelper kernel threads but those inherit this affinity for longer jobs such as requesting modules. This patch proposes to use these node affine unbound workqueues assuming that a node is sufficient to handle several parallel usermodehelper requests. Signed-off-by:

There seem to be quite some confusions on the comments, likely due to changes that came after them. Now since it's very non obvious why we have 3 levels of asynchronous code to implement usermodehelpers, it's important to comment in detail the reason of this layout. Signed-off-by:

Khelper is affine to all CPUs. Now since it creates the call_usermodehelper_exec_[a]sync() kernel threads, those inherit the wide affinity. As such explicitly forcing a wide affinity from those kernel threads is like a no-op. Just remove it. It's needless and it breaks CPU isolation users who rely on workqueue affinity tuning.

This patchset does a bunch of cleanups and converts khelper to use system unbound workqueues. The 3 first patches should be uncontroversial. The last 2 patches are debatable. Kmod creates kernel threads that perform userspace jobs and we want those to have a large affinity in order not to contend busy CPUs. This is (partly) why we use khelper which has a wide affinity that the kernel threads it create can inherit from. Now khelper is a dedicated workqueue that has singlethread properties which we aren't interested in. Hence those two debatable changes: _ We would like to use generic workqueues. System unbound workqueues are a very good candidate but they are not wide affine, only node affine. Now probably a node is enough to perform many parallel kmod jobs. _ We would like to remove the wait_for_helper kernel thread (UMH_WAIT_PROC handler) to use the workqueue. It means that if the workqueue blocks, and no other worker can take pending kmod request, we can be screwed. Now if we have 512 threads, this should be enough. This patch (of 5): Underscores on function names aren't much verbose to explain the purpose of a function. And kmod has interesting such flavours. Lets rename the following functions: * __call_usermodehelper -> call_usermodehelper_exec_work * ____call_usermodehelper -> call_usermodehelper_exec_async * wait_for_helper -> call_usermodehelper_exec_sync Signed-off-by:

Pages looked up by __hfs_bnode_create() (called by hfs_bnode_create() and hfs_bnode_find() for finding or creating pages corresponding to an inode) are immediately kmap()'ed and used (both read and write) and kunmap()'ed, and should not be page_cache_release()'ed until hfs_bnode_free(). This patch fixes a problem I first saw in July 2012: merely running "du" on a large hfsplus-mounted directory a few times on a reasonably loaded system would get the hfsplus driver all confused and complaining about B-tree inconsistencies, and generates a "BUG: Bad page state". Most recently, I can generate this problem on up-to-date Fedora 22 with shipped kernel 4.0.5, by running "du /" (="/" + "/home" + "/mnt" + other smaller mounts) and "du /mnt" simultaneously on two windows, where /mnt is a lightly-used QEMU VM image of the full Mac OS X 10.9: $ df -i / /home /mnt Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/mapper/fedora-root 3276800 551665 2725135 17% / /dev/mapper/fedora-home 52879360 716221 52163139 2% /home /dev/nbd0p2 4294967295 1387818 4293579477 1% /mnt After applying the patch, I was able to run "du /" (60+ times) and "du /mnt" (150+ times) continuously and simultaneously for 6+ hours. There are many reports of the hfsplus driver getting confused under load and generating "BUG: Bad page state" or other similar issues over the years. [1] The unpatched code [2] has always been wrong since it entered the kernel tree. The only reason why it gets away with it is that the kmap/memcpy/kunmap follow very quickly after the page_cache_release() so the kernel has not had a chance to reuse the memory for something else, most of the time. The current RW driver appears to have followed the design and development of the earlier read-only hfsplus driver [3], where-by version 0.1 (Dec 2001) had a B-tree node-centric approach to read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put(), migrating towards version 0.2 (June 2002) of caching and releasing pages per inode extents. When the current RW code first entered the kernel [2] in 2005, there was an REF_PAGES conditional (and "//" commented out code) to switch between B-node centric paging to inode-centric paging. There was a mistake with the direction of one of the REF_PAGES conditionals in __hfs_bnode_create(). In a subsequent "remove debug code" commit [4], the read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put() were removed, but a page_cache_release() was mistakenly left in (propagating the "REF_PAGES <-> !REF_PAGE" mistake), and the commented-out page_cache_release() in bnode_release() (which should be spanned by !REF_PAGES) was never enabled.

Dan Carpenter discovered a buffer overflow in the Coda file system readlink code. A userspace file system daemon can return a 4096 byte result which then triggers a one byte write past the allocated readlink result buffer. This does not trigger with an unmodified Coda implementation because Coda has a 1024 byte limit for symbolic links, however other userspace file systems using the Coda kernel module could be affected. Although this is an obvious overflow, I don't think this has to be handled as too sensitive from a security perspective because the overflow is on the Coda userspace daemon side which already needs root to open Coda's kernel device and to mount the file system before we get to the point that links can be read.

In kmalloc_oob_krealloc_less, I think it is better to test the size2 boundary. If we do not call krealloc, the access of position size1 will still cause out-of-bounds and access of position size2 does not. After call krealloc, the access of position size2 cause out-of-bounds. So using size2 is more correct. Signed-off-by:
