My attempt at fixing some KASAN false positive warnings was rather brain dead, and it broke the guess unwinder. With frame pointers disabled, /proc/<pid>/stack is broken: # cat /proc/1/stack [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff Restore the code flow to more closely resemble its previous state, while still using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() macros to silence KASAN false positives.

'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.

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 [] exit_to_usermode_loop+0x34/0x65 [] 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.

Pull arch/tile bugfix from Chris Metcalf: "This fixes a bug that causes reboots after 208 days of uptime :-)" * 'stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: avoid using clocksource_cyc2ns with absolute cycle count
-
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. Cc: stable@kernel.org [v3.4+] Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@mellanox.com>

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.

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.

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.

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.

Pull sparc fixes from David Miller: 1) With modern networking cards we can run out of 32-bit DMA space, so support 64-bit DMA addressing when possible on sparc64. From Dave Tushar. 2) Some signal frame validation checks are inverted on sparc32, fix from Andreas Larsson. 3) Lockdep tables can get too large in some circumstances on sparc64, add a way to adjust the size a bit. From Babu Moger. 4) Fix NUMA node probing on some sun4v systems, from Thomas Tai. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc: sparc: drop duplicate header scatterlist.h lockdep: Limit static allocations if PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL is defined config: Adding the new config parameter CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL for sparc sunbmac: Fix compiler warning sunqe: Fix compiler warnings sparc64: Enable 64-bit DMA sparc64: Enable sun4v dma ops to use IOMMU v2 APIs sparc64: Bind PCIe devices to use IOMMU v2 service sparc64: Initialize iommu_map_table and iommu_pool sparc64: Add ATU (new IOMMU) support sparc64: Add FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER and default to 13 sparc64: fix compile warning section mismatch in find_node() sparc32: Fix inverted invalid_frame_pointer checks on sigreturns sparc64: Fix find_node warning if numa node cannot be found

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Clear congestion control state when changing algorithms on an existing socket, from Florian Westphal. 2) Fix register bit values in altr_tse_pcs portion of stmmac driver, from Jia Jie Ho. 3) Fix PTP handling in stammc driver for GMAC4, from Giuseppe CAVALLARO. 4) Fix udplite multicast delivery handling, it ignores the udp_table parameter passed into the lookups, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 5) Synchronize the space estimated by rtnl_vfinfo_size and the space actually used by rtnl_fill_vfinfo. From Sabrina Dubroca. 6) Fix memory leak in fib_info when splitting nodes, from Alexander Duyck. 7) If a driver does a napi_hash_del() explicitily and not via netif_napi_del(), it must perform RCU synchronization as needed. Fix this in virtio-net and bnxt drivers, from Eric Dumazet. 8) Likewise, it is not necessary to invoke napi_hash_del() is we are also doing neif_napi_del() in the same code path. Remove such calls from be2net and cxgb4 drivers, also from Eric Dumazet. 9) Don't allocate an ID in peernet2id_alloc() if the netns is dead, from WANG Cong. 10) Fix OF node and device struct leaks in of_mdio, from Johan Hovold. 11) We cannot cache routes in ip6_tunnel when using inherited traffic classes, from Paolo Abeni. 12) Fix several crashes and leaks in cpsw driver, from Johan Hovold. 13) Splice operations cannot use freezable blocking calls in AF_UNIX, from WANG Cong. 14) Link dump filtering by master device and kind support added an error in loop index updates during the dump if we actually do filter, fix from Zhang Shengju. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (59 commits) tcp: zero ca_priv area when switching cc algorithms net: l2tp: Treat NET_XMIT_CN as success in l2tp_eth_dev_xmit ethernet: stmmac: make DWMAC_STM32 depend on it's associated SoC tipc: eliminate obsolete socket locking policy description rtnl: fix the loop index update error in rtnl_dump_ifinfo() l2tp: fix racy SOCK_ZAPPED flag check in l2tp_ip{,6}_bind() net: macb: add check for dma mapping error in start_xmit() rtnetlink: fix FDB size computation netns: fix get_net_ns_by_fd(int pid) typo af_unix: conditionally use freezable blocking calls in read net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix fixed-link phy probe deferral net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: add missing sanity check net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix secondary-emac probe error path net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix of_node and phydev leaks net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix deferred probe net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix mdio device reference leak net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix bad register access in probe error path net: sky2: Fix shutdown crash cfg80211: limit scan results cache size net sched filters: pass netlink message flags in event notification ...

We need to zero out the private data area when application switches connection to different algorithm (TCP_CONGESTION setsockopt). When congestion ops get assigned at connect time everything is already zeroed because sk_alloc uses GFP_ZERO flag. But in the setsockopt case this contains whatever previous cc placed there.

The tc could return NET_XMIT_CN as one congestion notification, but it does not mean the packe is lost. Other modules like ipvlan, macvlan, and others treat NET_XMIT_CN as success too. So l2tp_eth_dev_xmit should add the NET_XMIT_CN check. Signed-off-by: Gao Feng <gfree.wind@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The token table passed into match_token() must be null-terminated, which it currently is not in the perf's address filter string parser, as caught by Vince's perf_fuzzer and KASAN. It doesn't blow up otherwise because of the alignment padding of the table to the next element in the .rodata, which is luck. Fixing by adding a null-terminator to the token table.

Since the bootloader may load the compressed x86 kernel at any address, it should always be built as PIE, not just when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise, linker in binutils 2.27 will optimize GOT load into the absolute address when building the compressed x86 kernel as a non-PIE executable. Signed-off-by: H.J.

Watchdog device in Intel Tangier relies on SCU to be present. It uses the SCU IPC channel to send commands and receive responses. If watchdog driver is initialized quite before SCU and a command has been sent the result is always an error like the following: intel_mid_wdt: Error stopping watchdog: 0xffffffed Register watchdog device whne SCU is ready to avoid described issue.

Robert O'Callahan reported that after an execve PTRACE_GETREGSET NT_X86_XSTATE continues to return the pre-exec register values until the exec'ed task modifies FPU state. The test code is at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1164286. What is happening is fpu__clear() does not properly clear fpstate. Fix it by doing just that.

Linux will have all kinds of sporadic problems on systems that don't have the CPUID instruction unless CONFIG_M486=y. In particular, sync_core() will explode. I believe that these kernels had a better chance of working before commit 05fb3c19 ("x86/boot: Initialize FPU and X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS even if we don't have CPUID"). That commit inadvertently fixed a serious bug: we used to fail to detect the FPU if CPUID wasn't present. Because we also used to forget to set X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS, we end up with no cpu feature bits set at all. This meant that alternative patching didn't do anything and, if paravirt was disabled, we could plausibly finish the entire boot process without calling sync_core(). Rather than trying to work around these issues, just have the kernel fail loudly if it's running on a CPUID-less 486, doesn't have CPUID, and doesn't have CONFIG_M486 set.

On the 80486 DX, it seems that some exceptions may leave garbage in the high bits of CS. This causes sporadic failures in which early_fixup_exception() refuses to fix up an exception. As far as I can tell, this has been buggy for a long time, but the problem seems to have been exacerbated by commits: 1e02ce4c ("x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4") e1bfc11c ("x86/init: Fix cr4_init_shadow() on CR4-less machines") This appears to have broken for as long as we've had early exception handling. [ Note to stable maintainers: This patch is needed all the way back to 3.4, but it will only apply to 4.6 and up, as it depends on commit: 0e861fbb ("x86/head: Move early exception panic code into early_fixup_exception()") If you want to backport to kernels before 4.6, please don't backport the prerequisites (there was a big chain of them that rewrote a lot of the early exception machinery); instead, ask me and I can send you a one-liner that will apply. ] Reported-by: Matthew Whitehead <tedheadster@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: H.
