I am one of the main engineers working on ashmem. I have been fixing bugs in the driver and have been involved in the memfd conversion discussions and sending patches about that. I also have an understanding of the binder driver and was involved with some of the development on finer grained locking. So I would like to be added to the MAINTAINERS file for android drivers for review and maintenance of ashmem and other Android drivers.

We check if the pointer returned by __nvmem_device_get() is not NULL while we should actually check if it is not IS_ERR(nvmem). Fix it.

This adds a helper to paste 2 pointer arrays together, useful for merging various types of attribute arrays. There are a few places in the kernel tree where this is open coded, and I just added one more in the STM class. The naming is inspired by memset_p() and memcat(), and partial credit for it goes to Andy Shevchenko. This patch adds the function wrapped in a type-enforcing macro and a test module.

This adds support for MIPI SyS-T protocol as specified in an open standard [1]. In addition to marking message boundaries, it also supports tagging messages with the source UUID, to provide better distinction between trace sources, including payload length and timestamp in the message's metadata.

Now that the default framing protocol is factored out into its own driver, switch over to using the driver for writing data. To that end, make the policy code require a valid protocol name (or absence thereof, which is equivalent to "p_basic"). Also, to make transition easier, make stm class request "p_basic" module at initialization time.

Alexander Shishkin authored
Currently, if no matching policy node can be found for a trace source, we'll try to use "default" policy node, then, if that doesn't exist, we'll pick the first node, in order of creation. If that also fails, we'll allocate M/C range from the beginning of the device's M/C range. This makes it difficult to know which node (if any) was used in any particular case. In order to make things more deterministic, the new order is as follows: * if they supply ID string, use that and nothing else, * if they are a task, use their task name (comm), * use "default", if it exists, * return failure, to let them know there is no suitable rule. This should provide enough convenience with the "default" catch-all node, while not leaving *everything* to chance. As a side effect, this relaxes the requirement of using ioctl() for identification with the possibility of using task names as policy nodes.

do_shrink_slab() returns unsigned long value, and the placing into int variable cuts high bytes off. Then we compare ret and 0xfffffffe (since SHRINK_EMPTY is converted to ret type). Thus a large number of objects returned by do_shrink_slab() may be interpreted as SHRINK_EMPTY, if low bytes of their value are equal to 0xfffffffe. Fix that by declaration ret as unsigned long in these functions.

Currently, you can use /proc/self/task/*/stack to cause a stack walk on a task you control while it is running on another CPU. That means that the stack can change under the stack walker. The stack walker does have guards against going completely off the rails and into random kernel memory, but it can interpret random data from your kernel stack as instruction pointers and stack pointers. This can cause exposure of kernel stack contents to userspace. Restrict the ability to inspect kernel stacks of arbitrary tasks to root in order to prevent a local attacker from exploiting racy stack unwinding to leak kernel task stack contents. See the added comment for a longer rationale. There don't seem to be any users of this userspace API that can't gracefully bail out if reading from the file fails. Therefore, I believe that this change is unlikely to break things. In the case that this patch does end up needing a revert, the next-best solution might be to fake a single-entry stack based on wchan.
