If, for any reason, the open-coded arithmetic causes a wraparound, the protection that `struct_size()` adds against potential integer overflows is defeated. Fix this by hardening call to `struct_size()` with `size_add()`. Fixes: 40e1a70b ("drm: Add GUD USB Display driver") Signed-off-by: "Gustavo A. R.

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. We've already calculated bounds, possible truncation with '\0' or '\n' and manually NUL-terminated. The situation is now just a literal byte copy from one buffer to another, let's treat it as such and use a less ambiguous interface in memcpy.

We need to prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. `obj_desc->(type|label)` are expected to be NUL-terminated strings as per "include/linux/fsl/mc.h +143" | ... | * struct fsl_mc_obj_desc - Object descriptor | * @type: Type of object: NULL terminated string | ...

`strncpy` is deprecated and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous interfaces. In this case, all of `press_str`, `repeat_str` and `release_str` are explicitly marked as nonstring: | struct { /* valid when type == INPUT_TYPE_KBD */ | char press_str[sizeof(void *) + sizeof(int)] __nonstring; | char repeat_str[sizeof(void *) + sizeof(int)] __nonstring; | char release_str[sizeof(void *) + sizeof(int)] __nonstring; | } kbd; ... which makes `strtomem_pad` a suitable replacement as it is functionally the same whilst being more obvious about its behavior.

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. `gate_buf` should always be NUL-terminated and does not require NUL-padding. It is used as a string arg inside an argv array given to `run_helper()`. Due to this, let's use `strscpy` as it guarantees NUL-terminated on the destination buffer preventing potential buffer overreads [2]. This exact invocation was changed from `strcpy` to `strncpy` in commit 7879b1d9 ("um,ethertap: use strncpy") back in 2015. Let's continue hardening our `str*cpy` apis and use the newer and safer `strscpy`!

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable group_info.usage is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. **Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in refcount.h have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. Please check Documentation/core-api/refcount-vs-atomic.rst for more information. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the group_info.usage it might make a difference in following places: - put_group_info(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and ACQUIRE ordering on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Suggested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova <elena.reshetova@intel.com> Reviewed-by: David Windsor <dwindsor@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand <ishkamiel@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230818041456.gonna.009-kees@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct ivpu_job.

The lkdtm selftest config fragment enables CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP to make the ARRAY_BOUNDS test kill the calling process when an out-of-bound access is detected by UBSAN. However, after this [1] commit, UBSAN is triggered under many new scenarios that weren't detected before, such as in struct definitions with fixed-size trailing arrays used as flexible arrays. As a result, CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP=y has become a very aggressive option to enable except for specific situations. `make kselftest-merge` applies CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP=y to the kernel config for all selftests, which makes many of them fail because of system hangs during boot. This change removes the config option from the lkdtm kselftest and configures the ARRAY_BOUNDS test to look for UBSAN reports rather than relying on the calling process being killed.

Upon a panic() the kernel will use either smp_send_stop() or crash_smp_send_stop() to attempt to stop secondary CPUs via an IPI, which may or may not be an NMI. Generally it's preferable that this is an NMI so that CPUs can be stopped in as many situations as possible, but it's not always possible to provide an NMI, and there are cases where CPUs may be unable to handle the NMI regardless. This patch adds a test for panic() where all other CPUs are stuck with interrupts disabled, which can be used to check whether the kernel gracefully handles CPUs failing to respond to a stop, and whether NMIs actually work to stop CPUs. For example, on arm64 *without* an NMI, this results in: | # echo PANIC_STOP_IRQOFF > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT | lkdtm: Performing direct entry PANIC_STOP_IRQOFF | Kernel panic - not syncing: panic stop irqoff test | CPU: 2 PID: 24 Comm: migration/2 Not tainted 6.5.0-rc3-00077-ge6c782389895-dirty #4 | Hardware name: QEMU QEMU Virtual Machine, BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 | Stopper: multi_cpu_stop+0x0/0x1a0 <- stop_machine_cpuslocked+0x158/0x1a4 | Call trace: | dump_backtrace+0x94/0xec | show_stack+0x18/0x24 | dump_stack_lvl+0x74/0xc0 | dump_stack+0x18/0x24 | panic+0x358/0x3e8 | lkdtm_PANIC+0x0/0x18 | multi_cpu_stop+0x9c/0x1a0 | cpu_stopper_thread+0x84/0x118 | smpboot_thread_fn+0x224/0x248 | kthread+0x114/0x118 | ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 | SMP: stopping secondary CPUs | SMP: failed to stop secondary CPUs 0-3 | Kernel Offset: 0x401cf3490000 from 0xffff80008000000c0 | PHYS_OFFSET: 0x40000000 | CPU features: 0x00000000,68c167a1,cce6773f | Memory Limit: none | ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: panic stop irqoff test ]--- Note the "failed to stop secondary CPUs 0-3" message.

This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy(). Direct replacement is safe here since return value of -errno is used to check for truncation instead of sizeof(dest).

Inspired by Salvatore Mesoraca's earlier[1] efforts to provide some in-tree guidance for kernel hardening Kconfig options, add a new fragment named "hardening-basic.config" (along with some arch-specific fragments) that enable a basic set of kernel hardening options that have the least (or no) performance impact and remove a reasonable set of legacy APIs. Using this fragment is as simple as running "make hardening.config". More extreme fragments can be added[2] in the future to cover all the recognized hardening options, and more per-architecture files can be added too. For now, document the fragments directly via comments. Perhaps .rst documentation can be generated from them in the future (rather than the other way around).

The choose_32_64() macros were added to deal with an odd inconsistency between the 32-bit and 64-bit layout of 'struct stat' way back when in commit a52dd971 ("vfs: de-crapify "cp_new_stat()" function"). Then a decade later Mikulas noticed that said inconsistency had been a mistake in the early x86-64 port, and shouldn't have existed in the first place. So commit 932aba1e ("stat: fix inconsistency between struct stat and struct compat_stat") removed the uses of the helpers. But the helpers remained around, unused. Get rid of them.

[ AFAICT, x86 is the only arch that supports LTO and purgatory. ] We could also fix this with an explicit linker script to rejoin .text.* sections back into .text. However, given the benefit of LTOing purgatory is small, simply disable the production of more .text.* sections for now.

The decompressor has a hard limit on the number of page tables it can allocate. This limit is defined at compile-time and will cause boot failure if it is reached. The kernel is very strict and calculates the limit precisely for the worst-case scenario based on the current configuration. However, it is easy to forget to adjust the limit when a new use-case arises. The worst-case scenario is rarely encountered during sanity checks. In the case of enabling 5-level paging, a use-case was overlooked. The limit needs to be increased by one to accommodate the additional level. This oversight went unnoticed until Aaron attempted to run the kernel via kexec with 5-level paging and unaccepted memory enabled. Update wost-case calculations to include 5-level paging. To address this issue, let's allocate some extra space for page tables. 128K should be sufficient for any use-case. The logic can be simplified by using a single value for all kernel configurations. [ Also add a warning, should this memory run low - by Dave Hansen. ] Fixes: 34bbb000 ("x86/boot/compressed: Enable 5-level paging during decompression stage") Reported-by: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

Commit 408579cd ("mm: Update do_vmi_align_munmap() return semantics") seems to have updated one of the callers of do_vmi_munmap() incorrectly: it used to check for the error case (which didn't change: negative means error). That commit changed the check to the success case (which did change: before that commit, 0 was success, and 1 was "success and lock downgraded". After the change, it's always 0 for success, and the lock will have been released if requested). This didn't change any actual VM behavior _except_ for memory accounting when 'VM_ACCOUNT' was set on the vma. Which made the wrong return value test fairly subtle, since everything continues to work. Or rather - it continues to work but the "Committed memory" accounting goes all wonky (Committed_AS value in /proc/meminfo), and depending on settings that then causes problems much much later as the VM relies on bogus statistics for its heuristics. Revert that one line of the change back to the original logic.
