      perf python: Remove -fstack-clash-protection when building with some clang versions · 94ec1eb7
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      These options are not present in some (all?) clang versions, so when we
build for a distro that has a gcc new enough to have these options and
that the distro python build config settings use them but clang doesn't
support, b00m.

This is the case with fedora rawhide (now gearing towards f30), so check
if clang has the  and remove the missing ones from CFLAGS.

      perf core: Fix perf_proc_update_handler() bug · 1a51c5da
      Stephane Eranian authored 
      The perf_proc_update_handler() handles /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
syctl variable.  When the PMU IRQ handler timing monitoring is disabled, i.e,
when /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent is equal to 0 or 100,
then no modification to sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate is allowed to prevent
possible hang from wrong values.

The problem is that the test to prevent modification is made after the
sysctl variable is modified in perf_proc_update_handler().

You get an error:

  $ echo 10001 >/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
  echo: write error: invalid argument

But the value is still modified causing all sorts of inconsistencies:

  $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
  10001

This patch fixes the problem by moving the parsing of the value after
the test.

Committer testing:

  # echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent
  # echo 10001 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
  -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
  # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
  10001

      perf script: Fix crash with printing mixed trace point and other events · 96167167
      Andi Kleen authored 
      'perf script' crashes currently when printing mixed trace points and
other events because the trace format does not handle events without
trace meta data. Add a simple check to avoid that.

  % cat > test.c
  main()
  {
      printf("Hello world\n");
  }
  ^D
  % gcc -g -o test test.c
  % sudo perf probe -x test 'test.c:3'
  % perf record -e '{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/,probe_test:main}:S' ./test
  % perf script
  <segfault>

Committer testing:

Before:

  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.28.so malloc
  Added new event:
    probe_libc:malloc    (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

  # perf probe -l
  probe_libc:malloc    (on __libc_malloc@malloc/malloc.c in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)
  # perf record -e '{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/,probe_libc:*}:S' sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.023 MB perf.data (40 samples) ]
  # perf script

      Change mincore() to count "mapped" pages rather than "cached" pages · 574823bf
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The semantics of what "in core" means for the mincore() system call are
somewhat unclear, but Linux has always (since 2.3.52, which is when
mincore() was initially done) treated it as "page is available in page
cache" rather than "page is mapped in the mapping".

The problem with that traditional semantic is that it exposes a lot of
system cache state that it really probably shouldn't, and that users
shouldn't really even care about.

So let's try to avoid that information leak by simply changing the
semantics to be that mincore() counts actual mapped pages, not pages
that might be cheaply mapped if they were faulted (note the "might be"
part of the old semantics: being in the cache doesn't actually guarantee
that you can access them without IO anyway, since things like network
filesystems may have to revalidate the cache before use).

In many ways the old semantics were somewhat insane even aside from the
information leak issue.  From the very beginning (and that beginning is
a long time ago: 2.3.52 was released in March 2000, I think), the code
had a comment saying

  Later we can get more picky about what "in core" means precisely.

and this is that "later".  Admittedly it is much later than is really
comfortable.

NOTE! This is a real semantic change, and it is for example known to
change the output of "fincore", since that program literally does a
mmmap without populating it, and then doing "mincore()" on that mapping
that doesn't actually have any pages in it.

I'm hoping that nobody actually has any workflow that cares, and the
info leak is real.

We may have to do something different if it turns out that people have
valid reasons to want the old semantics, and if we can limit the
information leak sanely.

      Fix 'acccess_ok()' on alpha and SH · 94bd8a05
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Commit 594cc251 ("make 'user_access_begin()' do 'access_ok()'")
broke both alpha and SH booting in qemu, as noticed by Guenter Roeck.

It turns out that the bug wasn't actually in that commit itself (which
would have been surprising: it was mostly a no-op), but in how the
addition of access_ok() to the strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()
functions now triggered the case where those functions would test the
access of the very last byte of the user address space.

The string functions actually did that user range test before too, but
they did it manually by just comparing against user_addr_max().  But
with user_access_begin() doing the check (using "access_ok()"), it now
exposed problems in the architecture implementations of that function.

For example, on alpha, the access_ok() helper macro looked like this:

  #define __access_ok(addr, size) \
        ((get_fs().seg & (addr | size | (addr+size))) == 0)

and what it basically tests is of any of the high bits get set (the
USER_DS masking value is 0xfffffc0000000000).

And that's completely wrong for the "addr+size" check.  Because it's
off-by-one for the case where we check to the very end of the user
address space, which is exactly what the strn*_user() functions do.

Why? Because "addr+size" will be exactly the size of the address space,
so trying to access the last byte of the user address space will fail
the __access_ok() check, even though it shouldn't.  As a result, the
user string accessor functions failed consistently - because they
literally don't know how long the string is going to be, and the max
access is going to be that last byte of the user address space.

Side note: that alpha macro is buggy for another reason too - it re-uses
the arguments twice.

And SH has another version of almost the exact same bug:

  #define __addr_ok(addr) \
        ((unsigned long __force)(addr) < current_thread_info()->addr_limit.seg)

so far so good: yes, a user address must be below the limit.  But then:

  #define __access_ok(addr, size)         \
        (__addr_ok((addr) + (size)))

is wrong with the exact same off-by-one case: the case when "addr+size"
is exactly _equal_ to the limit is actually perfectly fine (think "one
byte access at the last address of the user address space")

The SH version is actually seriously buggy in another way: it doesn't
actually check for overflow, even though it did copy the _comment_ that
talks about overflow.

So it turns out that both SH and alpha actually have completely buggy
implementations of access_ok(), but they happened to work in practice
(although the SH overflow one is a serious serious security bug, not
that anybody likely cares about SH security).

This fixes the problems by using a similar macro on both alpha and SH.
It isn't trying to be clever, the end address is based on this logic:

        unsigned long __ao_end = __ao_a + __ao_b - !!__ao_b;

which basically says "add start and length, and then subtract one unless
the length was zero".  We can't subtract one for a zero length, or we'd
just hit an underflow instead.

For a lot of access_ok() users the length is a constant, so this isn't
actually as expensive as it initially looks.

      fscrypt: add Adiantum support · 8094c3ce
      Eric Biggers authored 
      Add support for the Adiantum encryption mode to fscrypt.  Adiantum is a
tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode with security provably
reducible to that of XChaCha12 and AES-256, subject to a security bound.
It's also a true wide-block mode, unlike XTS.  See the paper
"Adiantum: length-preserving encryption for entry-level processors"
(https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/720.pdf) for more details.  Also see
commit 059c2a4d ("crypto: adiantum - add Adiantum support").

On sufficiently long messages, Adiantum's bottlenecks are XChaCha12 and
the NH hash function.  These algorithms are fast even on processors
without dedicated crypto instructions.  Adiantum makes it feasible to
enable storage encryption on low-end mobile devices that lack AES
instructions; currently such devices are unencrypted.  On ARM Cortex-A7,
on 4096-byte messages Adiantum encryption is about 4 times faster than
AES-256-XTS encryption; decryption is about 5 times faster.

In fscrypt, Adiantum is suitable for encrypting both file contents and
names.  With filenames, it fixes a known weakness: when two filenames in
a directory share a common prefix of >= 16 bytes, with CTS-CBC their
encrypted filenames share a common prefix too, leaking information.
Adiantum does not have this problem.

Since Adiantum also accepts long tweaks (IVs), it's also safe to use the
master key directly for Adiantum encryption rather than deriving
per-file keys, provided that the per-file nonce is included in the IVs
and the master key isn't used for any other encryption mode.  This
configuration saves memory and improves performance.  A new fscrypt
policy flag is added to allow users to opt-in to this configuration.
