This is my sigreturn test, added mostly unchanged from its old home. It exercises the sigreturn(2) syscall, specifically focusing on its interactions with various IRET corner cases. It tests for correct behavior in several areas that were historically dangerously buggy. For example, it exercises espfix on kernels of both bitnesses under various conditions, and it contains testcases for several now-fixed bugs in IRET error handling. If you run it on older kernels without the fixes, your system will crash. It probably won't eat your data in the process. There is no released kernel on which the sigreturn_64 test will pass, but it passes on tip:x86/asm. I plan to switch to lib.mk for Linux 4.2. I'm not using the ksft_ helpers at all yet. I can do that later.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell. 2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup, from Cong WANG. 3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also from Cong WANG. 4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel. 5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the user socket. So this leads to cases where we retraverse the ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address family (f.e. AF_PACKET). This can cause things to crash since the ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were an ipv4 one. The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing xmit_recursion. Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive for 'net' and -stable. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from Cong WANG. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: net/mlx4_core: Fix error message deprecation for ConnectX-2 cards net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF description l2tp: unregister l2tp_net_ops on failure path mvneta: dont call mvneta_adjust_link() manually ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack netns: don't allocate an id for dead netns Revert "netns: don't clear nsid too early on removal" ip6mr: call del_timer_sync() in ip6mr_free_table() net: move fib_rules_unregister() under rtnl lock ipv4: take rtnl_lock and mark mrt table as freed on namespace cleanup tcp: fix FRTO undo on cumulative ACK of SACKed range xen-netfront: transmit fully GSO-sized packets

According to description in 'include/net/dsa.h', in cascade switches configurations where there are more than one interconnected devices, 'rtable' array in 'dsa_chip_data' structure is used to indicate which port on this switch should be used to send packets to that are destined for corresponding switch. However, dsa_of_setup_routing_table() fills 'rtable' with port numbers of the _target_ switch, but not current one. This commit removes redundant devicetree parsing and adds needed port number as a function argument. So dsa_of_setup_routing_table() now just looks for target switch number by parsing parent of 'link' device node. To remove possible misunderstandings with the way of determining target switch number, a corresponding comment was added to the source code and to the DSA device tree bindings documentation file. This was tested on a custom board with two Marvell 88E6095 switches with following corresponding routing tables: { -1, 10 } and { 8, -1 }.

We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process. ipv6 does not conform with this in three places: 1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size 2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should loop the packet back to the local socket 3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and force a wrong MTU Furthermore: In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device. Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting tunnel devices.

Take a look at the first instruction byte before optimizing the NOP - there might be something else there already, like the ALTERNATIVE_2() in rdtsc_barrier() which NOPs out on AMD even though we just patched in an MFENCE. This happens because the alternatives sees X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC, AMD CPUs set it, we patch in the MFENCE and right afterwards it sees X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC which AMD CPUs don't set and we blindly optimize the NOP. Checking whether at least the first byte is 0x90 prevents that.

On failure, sys_execve() does not clobber EXTRA_REGS, so we can just return to userpsace without saving/restoring them. On success, ELF_PLAT_INIT() in sys_execve() clears all these registers. On other executable formats: - binfmt_flat.c has similar FLAT_PLAT_INIT, but x86 (and everyone else except sh) doesn't define it. - binfmt_elf_fdpic.c has ELF_FDPIC_PLAT_INIT, but x86 (and most others) doesn't define it. - There are no such hooks in binfmt_aout.c et al. We inherit EXTRA_REGS from the prior executable. This inconsistency was not intended. This change removes SAVE/RESTORE_EXTRA_REGS in stub_execve, removes register clearing in ELF_PLAT_INIT(), and instead simply clears them on success in stub_execve. Run-tested.

Brian Gerst authored
The 'pax' argument is unnecesary. Instead, store the RAX value directly in regs. This pattern goes all the way back to 2.1.106pre1, when restore_sigcontext() was changed to return an error code instead of EAX directly: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/diff/arch/i386/kernel/signal.c?id=9a8f8b7ca3f319bd668298d447bdf32730e51174 In 2007 sigaltstack syscall support was added, where the return value of restore_sigcontext() was changed to carry the memory-copying failure code. But instead of putting 'ax' into regs->ax directly, it was carried in via a pointer and then returned, where the generic syscall return code copied it to regs->ax. So there was never any deeper reason for this suboptimal pattern, it was simply never noticed after being introduced.

Hans de Goede authored
On V2 devices the DualPoint Stick reports bare packets, these should be reported via the "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint Stick" dev2 evdev node, which also has the INPUT_PROP_POINTING_STICK propbit set. Note that since there is no way to distinguish these packets from an external PS/2 mouse (insofar as these laptops have an external PS/2 port) this means that we will be reporting PS/2 mouse events via this evdev node too, as we've been doing in kernel 3.19 and older. This has been tested on a Dell Latitude D620 and a Dell Latitude E6400, which both have a V2 touchpad + a DualPoint Stick which reports bare packets.

Bare packets should be reported via the same evdev device independent on whether they are detected on the beginning of a packet or in the middle of a packet. This has been tested on a Dell Latitude E6400, where the DualPoint Stick reports bare packets, which get reported via dev3 when the touchpad is idle, and via dev2 when the touchpad and stick are used simultaneously. This commit fixes this inconsistency by always reporting bare packets via dev3. Note that since the come from a DualPoint Stick they really should be reported via dev2, this gets fixed in a later commit.

Quentin caught a corner case with the generation of instruction padding in the ALTERNATIVE_2 macro: if len(orig_insn) < len(alt1) < len(alt2), then not enough padding gets added and that is not good(tm) as we could overwrite the beginning of the next instruction. Luckily, at the time of this writing, we don't have ALTERNATIVE_2() invocations which have that problem and even if we did, a simple fix would be to prepend the instructions with enough prefixes so that that corner case doesn't happen. However, best it would be if we fixed it properly. See below for a simple, abstracted example of what we're doing. So what we ended up doing is, we compute the max(len(alt1), len(alt2)) - len(orig_insn) and feed that value to the .skip gas directive. The max() cannot have conditionals due to gas limitations, thus the fancy integer math. With this patch, all ALTERNATIVE_2 sites get padded correctly; generating obscure test cases pass too: #define alt_max_short(a, b) ((a) ^ (((a) ^ (b)) & -(-((a) < (b))))) #define gen_skip(orig, alt1, alt2, marker) \ .skip -((alt_max_short(alt1, alt2) - (orig)) > 0) * \ (alt_max_short(alt1, alt2) - (orig)),marker .pushsection .text, "ax" .globl main main: gen_skip(1, 2, 4, 0x09) gen_skip(4, 1, 2, 0x10) ... .popsection Thanks to Quentin for catching it and double-checking the fix!

First, let's explain the problem. Suppose you have an ipip interface that stands in the netns foo and its link part in the netns bar (so the netns bar has an nsid into the netns foo). Now, you remove the netns bar: - the bar nsid into the netns foo is removed - the netns exit method of ipip is called, thus our ipip iface is removed: => a netlink message is built in the netns foo to advertise this deletion => this netlink message requests an nsid for bar, thus a new nsid is allocated for bar and never removed. This patch adds a check in peernet2id() so that an id cannot be allocated for a netns which is currently destroyed. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

SYSEXIT is scary on 64-bit kernels -- SYSEXIT must be invoked with usergs and IRQs on. That means that we rely on STI to correctly mask interrupts for one instruction. This is okay by itself, but the semantics with respect to NMIs are unclear. Avoid the whole issue by using SYSRETL instead. For background, Intel CPUs don't allow SYSCALL from compat mode, but they do allow SYSRETL back to compat mode. Go figure. To avoid doing too much at once, this doesn't revamp the calling convention. We still return with EBP, EDX, and ECX on the user stack. Oddly this seems to be 30 cycles or so faster. Avoiding POPFQ and STI will account for under half of that, I think, so my best guess is that Intel just optimizes SYSRET much better than SYSEXIT.

Add support for the new CLWB (cache line write back) instruction. This instruction was announced in the document "Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference" with reference number 319433-022. https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/0d/53/319433-022.pdf The CLWB instruction is used to write back the contents of dirtied cache lines to memory without evicting the cache lines from the processor's cache hierarchy. This should be used in favor of clflushopt or clflush in cases where you require the cache line to be written to memory but plan to access the data again in the near future. One of the main use cases for this is with persistent memory where CLWB can be used with PCOMMIT to ensure that data has been accepted to memory and is durable on the DIMM. This function shows how to properly use CLWB/CLFLUSHOPT/CLFLUSH and PCOMMIT with appropriate fencing: void flush_and_commit_buffer(void *vaddr, unsigned int size) { void *vend = vaddr + size - 1; for (; vaddr < vend; vaddr += boot_cpu_data.x86_clflush_size) clwb(vaddr); /* Flush any possible final partial cacheline */ clwb(vend); /* * Use SFENCE to order CLWB/CLFLUSHOPT/CLFLUSH cache flushes. * (MFENCE via mb() also works) */ wmb(); /* PCOMMIT and the required SFENCE for ordering */ pcommit_sfence(); } After this function completes the data pointed to by vaddr is has been accepted to memory and will be durable if the vaddr points to persistent memory. Regarding the details of how the alternatives assembly is set up, we need one additional byte at the beginning of the CLFLUSH so that we can flip it into a CLFLUSHOPT by changing that byte into a 0x66 prefix. Two options are to either insert a 1 byte ASM_NOP1, or to add a 1 byte NOP_DS_PREFIX. Both have no functional effect with the plain CLFLUSH, but I've been told that executing a CLFLUSH + prefix should be faster than executing a CLFLUSH + NOP. We had to hard code the assembly for CLWB because, lacking the ability to assemble the CLWB instruction itself, the next closest thing is to have an xsaveopt instruction with a 0x66 prefix. Unfortunately XSAVEOPT itself is also relatively new, and isn't included by all the GCC versions that the kernel needs to support.

We have to hold rtnl lock for fib_rules_unregister() otherwise the following race could happen: fib_rules_unregister(): fib_nl_delrule(): ... ... ... ops = lookup_rules_ops(); list_del_rcu(&ops->list); list_for_each_entry(ops->rules) { fib_rules_cleanup_ops(ops); ... list_del_rcu(); list_del_rcu(); } Note, net->rules_mod_lock is actually not needed at all, either upper layer netns code or rtnl lock guarantees we are safe.
