      seccomp: Fix tracer exit notifications during fatal signals · 485a252a
      Kees Cook authored
      This fixes a ptrace vs fatal pending signals bug as manifested in
      seccomp now that seccomp was reordered to happen after ptrace. The
      short version is that seccomp should not attempt to call do_exit()
      while fatal signals are pending under a tracer. The existing code was
      trying to be as defensively paranoid as possible, but it now ends up
      confusing ptrace. Instead, the syscall can just be skipped (which solves
      the original concern that the do_exit() was addressing) and normal signal
      handling, tracer notification, and process death can happen.
      
      Paraphrasing from the original bug report:
      
      If a tracee task is in a PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP trap, or has been resumed
      after such a trap but not yet been scheduled, and another task in the
      thread-group calls exit_group(), then the tracee task exits without the
      ptracer receiving a PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT notification. Test case here:
      https://gist.github.com/khuey/3c43ac247c72cef8c956ca73281c9be7
      
      The bug happens because when __seccomp_filter() detects
      fatal_signal_pending(), it calls do_exit() without dequeuing the fatal
      signal. When do_exit() sends the PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT notification and
      that task is descheduled, __schedule() notices that there is a fatal
      signal pending and changes its state from TASK_TRACED to TASK_RUNNING.
      That prevents the ptracer's waitpid() from returning the ptrace event.
      A more detailed analysis is here:

      mm/usercopy: get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS · 0d025d27
      Josh Poimboeuf authored
      There are three usercopy warnings which are currently being silenced for
      gcc 4.6 and newer:
      
      1) "copy_from_user() buffer size is too small" compile warning/error
      
         This is a static warning which happens when object size and copy size
         are both const, and copy size > object size.  I didn't see any false
         positives for this one.  So the function warning attribute seems to
         be working fine here.
      
         Note this scenario is always a bug and so I think it should be
         changed to *always* be an error, regardless of
         CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS.
      
      2) "copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct" compile warning
      
         This is another static warning which happens when I enable
         __compiletime_object_size() for new compilers (and
         CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS).  It happens when object size
         is const, but copy size is *not*.  In this case there's no way to
         compare the two at build time, so it gives the warning.  (Note the
         warning is a byproduct of the fact that gcc has no way of knowing
         whether the overflow function will be called, so the call isn't dead
         code and the warning attribute is activated.)
      
         So this warning seems to only indicate "this is an unusual pattern,
         maybe you should check it out" rather than "this is a bug".
      
         I get 102(!) of these warnings with allyesconfig and the
         __compiletime_object_size() gcc check removed.  I don't know if there
         are any real bugs hiding in there, but from looking at a small
         sample, I didn't see any.  According to Kees, it does sometimes find
         real bugs.  But the false positive rate seems high.
      
      3) "Buffer overflow detected" runtime warning
      
         This is a runtime warning where object size is const, and copy size >
         object size.
      
      All three warnings (both static and runtime) were completely disabled
      for gcc 4.6 with the following commit:
      
        2fb0815c ("gcc4: disable __compiletime_object_size for GCC 4.6+")
      
      That commit mistakenly assumed that the false positives were caused by a
      gcc bug in __compiletime_object_size().  But in fact,
      __compiletime_object_size() seems to be working fine.  The false
      positives were instead triggered by #2 above.  (Though I don't have an
      explanation for why the warnings supposedly only started showing up in
      gcc 4.6.)
      
      So remove warning #2 to get rid of all the false positives, and re-enable
      warnings #1 and #3 by reverting the above commit.
      
      Furthermore, since #1 is a real bug which is detected at compile time,
      upgrade it to always be an error.
      
      Having done all that, CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS is no longer
      needed.

       "Two fixes for cgroup.
      
         - There still was a hole in enforcing cpuset rules, fixed by Li.
      
         - The recent switch to global percpu_rwseom for threadgroup locking
           revealed a couple issues in how percpu_rwsem is implemented and
           used by cgroup.  Balbir found that the read locking section was too
           wide unnecessarily including operations which can often depend on
           IOs.  With percpu_rwsem updates (coming through a different tree)
           and reduction of read locking section, all the reported locking
           latency issues, including the android one, are resolved.
      
        It looks like we can keep global percpu_rwsem locking for now.  If
        there actually are cases which can't be resolved, we can go back to
        more complex per-signal_struct locking"

      pNFS/flexfiles: Fix an Oopsable condition when connection to the DS fails · 3dc14735
      Trond Myklebust authored
      If the attempt to connect to a DS fails inside ff_layout_pg_init_read or
      ff_layout_pg_init_write, then we currently end up clearing the layout
      segment carried by the struct nfs_pageio_descriptor, causing an Oops
      when we later call into ff_layout_read_pagelist/ff_layout_write_pagelist.
      
      The fix is to ensure we return the layout and then retry.

      net: smc91x: fix SMC accesses · 2fb04fdf
      Russell King authored
      Commit b70661c7 ("net: smc91x: use run-time configuration on all ARM
      machines") broke some ARM platforms through several mistakes.  Firstly,
      the access size must correspond to the following rule:
      
      (a) at least one of 16-bit or 8-bit access size must be supported
      (b) 32-bit accesses are optional, and may be enabled in addition to
          the above.
      
      Secondly, it provides no emulation of 16-bit accesses, instead blindly
      making 16-bit accesses even when the platform specifies that only 8-bit
      is supported.
      
      Reorganise smc91x.h so we can make use of the existing 16-bit access
      emulation already provided - if 16-bit accesses are supported, use
      16-bit accesses directly, otherwise if 8-bit accesses are supported,
      use the provided 16-bit access emulation.  If neither, BUG().  This
      exactly reflects the driver behaviour prior to the commit being fixed.
      
      Since the conversion incorrectly cut down the available access sizes on
      several platforms, we also need to go through every platform and fix up
      the overly-restrictive access size: Arnd assumed that if a platform can
      perform 32-bit, 16-bit and 8-bit accesses, then only a 32-bit access
      size needed to be specified - not so, all available access sizes must
      be specified.
      
      This likely fixes some performance regressions in doing this: if a
      platform does not support 8-bit accesses, 8-bit accesses have been
      emulated by performing a 16-bit read-modify-write access.
      
      Tested on the Intel Assabet/Neponset platform, which supports only 8-bit
      accesses, which was broken by the original commit.

      The driver RQ has two possible configurations: striding RQ and

      number of hardware WQEs (ring descriptors). For non striding RQ
      configuration, this was OK since we have one WQE per pending packet
      For striding RQ, multiple packets can fit into one WQE. For better
      user experience we normalize the rx_pending parameter (size of wqe/mtu)
      as the average ring size in case of striding RQ.

      net/mlx5e: Limit UMR length to the device's limitation · fe4c988b
      Saeed Mahameed authored
      ConnectX-4 UMR (User Memory Region) MTT translation table offset in WQE
      is limited to U16_MAX, before this patch we ignored that limitation and
      requested the maximum possible UMR translation length that the netdev
      might need (MAX channels * MAX pages per channel).
      In case of a system with #cores > 32 and when linear WQE allocation fails,
      falling back to using UMR WQEs will cause the RQ (Receive Queue) to get
      stuck.
      
      Here we limit UMR length to min(U16_MAX, max required pages) (while
      considering the required alignments) on driver load, by default U16_MAX is
      sufficient since the default RX rings value guarantees that we are in
      range, dynamically (on set_ringparam/set_channels) we will check if the
      new required UMR length (num mtts) is still in range, if not, fail the
      request.

      powerpc: signals: Discard transaction state from signal frames · 78a3e888
      Cyril Bur authored
      Userspace can begin and suspend a transaction within the signal
      handler which means they might enter sys_rt_sigreturn() with the
      processor in suspended state.
      
      sys_rt_sigreturn() wants to restore process context (which may have
      been in a transaction before signal delivery). To do this it must
      restore TM SPRS. To achieve this, any transaction initiated within the
      signal frame must be discarded in order to be able to restore TM SPRs
      as TM SPRs can only be manipulated non-transactionally..

      In a situation, where Linux kernel gets notified about duplicate error log
      from OPAL, it is been observed that kernel fails to remove sysfs entries
      (/sys/firmware/opal/elog/0xXXXXXXXX) of such error logs. This is because,
      we currently search the error log/dump kobject in the kset list via
      'kset_find_obj()' routine. Which eventually increment the reference count
      by one, once it founds the kobject.
      
      So, unless we decrement the reference count by one after it found the kobject,
      we would not be able to release the kobject properly later.
      
      This patch adds the 'kobject_put()' which was missing earlier.

      powerpc/tm: do not use r13 for tabort_syscall · cc7786d3
      Nicholas Piggin authored
      tabort_syscall runs with RI=1, so a nested recoverable machine
      check will load the paca into r13 and overwrite what we loaded
      it with, because exceptions returning to privileged mode do not
      restore r13.
