This patch switches to <linux/ieee80211.h> and <net/cfg80211.h> and deletes a lot of duplicate definitions plus many unused ones. Non obvious changes: - struct ieee80211_ht_cap is different enough that I preferred to keep (and rename) it for now. - mcs_rate in translate_scan was not read after being set, so I deleted that part rather than using the renamed struct - WLAN_CAPABILITY_BSS is replaced with WLAN_CAPABILITY_ESS which is the corresponding one with same value Signed-off-by: Pascal Terjan <pterjan@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200609194848.166130-1-pterjan@google.comSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Pull SafeSetID update from Micah Morton: "Add additional LSM hooks for SafeSetID SafeSetID is capable of making allow/deny decisions for set*uid calls on a system, and we want to add similar functionality for set*gid calls. The work to do that is not yet complete, so probably won't make it in for v5.8, but we are looking to get this simple patch in for v5.8 since we have it ready. We are planning on the rest of the work for extending the SafeSetID LSM being merged during the v5.9 merge window" * tag 'LSM-add-setgid-hook-5.8-author-fix' of git://github.com/micah-morton/linux: security: Add LSM hooks to set*gid syscalls

Thomas Cedeno authored
The SafeSetID LSM uses the security_task_fix_setuid hook to filter set*uid() syscalls according to its configured security policy. In preparation for adding analagous support in the LSM for set*gid() syscalls, we add the requisite hook here. Tested by putting print statements in the security_task_fix_setgid hook and seeing them get hit during kernel boot.

This reverts commit a43a67a2. This patch reverts the main part of switching direct io implementation to iomap infrastructure. There's a problem in invalidate page that couldn't be solved as regression in this development cycle. The problem occurs when buffered and direct io are mixed, and the ranges overlap. Although this is not recommended, filesystems implement measures or fallbacks to make it somehow work. In this case, fallback to buffered IO would be an option for btrfs (this already happens when direct io is done on compressed data), but the change would be needed in the iomap code, bringing new semantics to other filesystems. Another problem arises when again the buffered and direct ios are mixed, invalidation fails, then -EIO is set on the mapping and fsync will fail, though there's no real error. There have been discussions how to fix that, but revert seems to be the least intrusive option.

On AM65xx MCU CPSW2G NUSS and 66AK2E/L NUSS allmulti setting does not allow unregistered mcast packets to pass. This happens, because ALE VLAN entries on these SoCs do not contain port masks for reg/unreg mcast packets, but instead store indexes of ALE_VLAN_MASK_MUXx_REG registers which intended for store port masks for reg/unreg mcast packets. This path was missed by commit 9d1f6447 ("net: ethernet: ti: ale: fix seeing unreg mcast packets with promisc and allmulti disabled"). Hence, fix it by taking into account ALE type in cpsw_ale_set_allmulti().

Pull x86 entry updates from Thomas Gleixner: "The x86 entry, exception and interrupt code rework This all started about 6 month ago with the attempt to move the Posix CPU timer heavy lifting out of the timer interrupt code and just have lockless quick checks in that code path. Trivial 5 patches. This unearthed an inconsistency in the KVM handling of task work and the review requested to move all of this into generic code so other architectures can share. Valid request and solved with another 25 patches but those unearthed inconsistencies vs. RCU and instrumentation. Digging into this made it obvious that there are quite some inconsistencies vs. instrumentation in general. The int3 text poke handling in particular was completely unprotected and with the batched update of trace events even more likely to expose to endless int3 recursion. In parallel the RCU implications of instrumenting fragile entry code came up in several discussions. The conclusion of the x86 maintainer team was to go all the way and make the protection against any form of instrumentation of fragile and dangerous code pathes enforcable and verifiable by tooling. A first batch of preparatory work hit mainline with commit d5f744f9 ("Pull x86 entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner") That (almost) full solution introduced a new code section '.noinstr.text' into which all code which needs to be protected from instrumentation of all sorts goes into. Any call into instrumentable code out of this section has to be annotated. objtool has support to validate this. Kprobes now excludes this section fully which also prevents BPF from fiddling with it and all 'noinstr' annotated functions also keep ftrace off. The section, kprobes and objtool changes are already merged. The major changes coming with this are: - Preparatory cleanups - Annotating of relevant functions to move them into the noinstr.text section or enforcing inlining by marking them __always_inline so the compiler cannot misplace or instrument them. - Splitting and simplifying the idtentry macro maze so that it is now clearly separated into simple exception entries and the more interesting ones which use interrupt stacks and have the paranoid handling vs. CR3 and GS. - Move quite some of the low level ASM functionality into C code: - enter_from and exit to user space handling. The ASM code now calls into C after doing the really necessary ASM handling and the return path goes back out without bells and whistels in ASM. - exception entry/exit got the equivivalent treatment - move all IRQ tracepoints from ASM to C so they can be placed as appropriate which is especially important for the int3 recursion issue. - Consolidate the declaration and definition of entry points between 32 and 64 bit. They share a common header and macros now. - Remove the extra device interrupt entry maze and just use the regular exception entry code. - All ASM entry points except NMI are now generated from the shared header file and the corresponding macros in the 32 and 64 bit entry ASM. - The C code entry points are consolidated as well with the help of DEFINE_IDTENTRY*() macros. This allows to ensure at one central point that all corresponding entry points share the same semantics. The actual function body for most entry points is in an instrumentable and sane state. There are special macros for the more sensitive entry points, e.g. INT3 and of course the nasty paranoid #NMI, #MCE, #DB and #DF. They allow to put the whole entry instrumentation and RCU handling into safe places instead of the previous pray that it is correct approach. - The INT3 text poke handling is now completely isolated and the recursion issue banned. Aside of the entry rework this required other isolation work, e.g. the ability to force inline bsearch. - Prevent #DB on fragile entry code, entry relevant memory and disable it on NMI, #MC entry, which allowed to get rid of the nested #DB IST stack shifting hackery. - A few other cleanups and enhancements which have been made possible through this and already merged changes, e.g. consolidating and further restricting the IDT code so the IDT table becomes RO after init which removes yet another popular attack vector - About 680 lines of ASM maze are gone. There are a few open issues: - An escape out of the noinstr section in the MCE handler which needs some more thought but under the aspect that MCE is a complete trainwreck by design and the propability to survive it is low, this was not high on the priority list. - Paravirtualization When PV is enabled then objtool complains about a bunch of indirect calls out of the noinstr section. There are a few straight forward ways to fix this, but the other issues vs. general correctness were more pressing than parawitz. - KVM KVM is inconsistent as well. Patches have been posted, but they have not yet been commented on or picked up by the KVM folks. - IDLE Pretty much the same problems can be found in the low level idle code especially the parts where RCU stopped watching. This was beyond the scope of the more obvious and exposable problems and is on the todo list. The lesson learned from this brain melting exercise to morph the evolved code base into something which can be validated and understood is that once again the violation of the most important engineering principle "correctness first" has caused quite a few people to spend valuable time on problems which could have been avoided in the first place. The "features first" tinkering mindset really has to stop. With that I want to say thanks to everyone involved in contributing to this effort.

Since commit 84af7a61 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

Merge tag 'notifications-20200601' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs Pull notification queue from David Howells: "This adds a general notification queue concept and adds an event source for keys/keyrings, such as linking and unlinking keys and changing their attributes. Thanks to Debarshi Ray, we do have a pull request to use this to fix a problem with gnome-online-accounts - as mentioned last time: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/merge_requests/47 Without this, g-o-a has to constantly poll a keyring-based kerberos cache to find out if kinit has changed anything. [ There are other notification pending: mount/sb fsinfo notifications for libmount that Karel Zak and Ian Kent have been working on, and Christian Brauner would like to use them in lxc, but let's see how this one works first ] LSM hooks are included: - A set of hooks are provided that allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a watch may be set. Each of these hooks takes a different "watched object" parameter, so they're not really shareable. The LSM should use current's credentials. [Wanted by SELinux & Smack] - A hook is provided to allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a particular message may be posted to a particular queue. This is given the credentials from the event generator (which may be the system) and the watch setter. [Wanted by Smack] I've provided SELinux and Smack with implementations of some of these hooks. WHY === Key/keyring notifications are desirable because if you have your kerberos tickets in a file/directory, your Gnome desktop will monitor that using something like fanotify and tell you if your credentials cache changes. However, we also have the ability to cache your kerberos tickets in the session, user or persistent keyring so that it isn't left around on disk across a reboot or logout. Keyrings, however, cannot currently be monitored asynchronously, so the desktop has to poll for it - not so good on a laptop. This facility will allow the desktop to avoid the need to poll. DESIGN DECISIONS ================ - The notification queue is built on top of a standard pipe. Messages are effectively spliced in. The pipe is opened with a special flag: pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); The special flag has the same value as O_EXCL (which doesn't seem like it will ever be applicable in this context)[?]. It is given up front to make it a lot easier to prohibit splice&co from accessing the pipe. [?] Should this be done some other way? I'd rather not use up a new O_* flag if I can avoid it - should I add a pipe3() system call instead? The pipe is then configured:: ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter); Messages are then read out of the pipe using read(). - It should be possible to allow write() to insert data into the notification pipes too, but this is currently disabled as the kernel has to be able to insert messages into the pipe *without* holding pipe->mutex and the code to make this work needs careful auditing. - sendfile(), splice() and vmsplice() are disabled on notification pipes because of the pipe->mutex issue and also because they sometimes want to revert what they just did - but one or more notification messages might've been interleaved in the ring. - The kernel inserts messages with the wait queue spinlock held. This means that pipe_read() and pipe_write() have to take the spinlock to update the queue pointers. - Records in the buffer are binary, typed and have a length so that they can be of varying size. This allows multiple heterogeneous sources to share a common buffer; there are 16 million types available, of which I've used just a few, so there is scope for others to be used. Tags may be specified when a watchpoint is created to help distinguish the sources. - Records are filterable as types have up to 256 subtypes that can be individually filtered. Other filtration is also available. - Notification pipes don't interfere with each other; each may be bound to a different set of watches. Any particular notification will be copied to all the queues that are currently watching for it - and only those that are watching for it. - When recording a notification, the kernel will not sleep, but will rather mark a queue as having lost a message if there's insufficient space. read() will fabricate a loss notification message at an appropriate point later. - The notification pipe is created and then watchpoints are attached to it, using one of: keyctl_watch_key(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01); watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd, 0x02); watch_sb(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", 0, fd, 0x03); where in both cases, fd indicates the queue and the number after is a tag between 0 and 255. - Watches are removed if either the notification pipe is destroyed or the watched object is destroyed. In the latter case, a message will be generated indicating the enforced watch removal. Things I want to avoid: - Introducing features that make the core VFS dependent on the network stack or networking namespaces (ie. usage of netlink). - Dumping all this stuff into dmesg and having a daemon that sits there parsing the output and distributing it as this then puts the responsibility for security into userspace and makes handling namespaces tricky. Further, dmesg might not exist or might be inaccessible inside a container. - Letting users see events they shouldn't be able to see. TESTING AND MANPAGES ==================== - The keyutils tree has a pipe-watch branch that has keyctl commands for making use of notifications. Proposed manual pages can also be found on this branch, though a couple of them really need to go to the main manpages repository instead. If the kernel supports the watching of keys, then running "make test" on that branch will cause the testing infrastructure to spawn a monitoring process on the side that monitors a notifications pipe for all the key/keyring changes induced by the tests and they'll all be checked off to make sure they happened. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/log/?h=pipe-watch - A test program is provided (samples/watch_queue/watch_test) that can be used to monitor for keyrings, mount and superblock events.

EFI on ARM only supports short descriptors, and given that it mandates that the MMU and caches are on, it is implied that booting in HYP mode is not supported. However, implementations of EFI exist (i.e., U-Boot) that ignore this requirement, which is not entirely unreasonable, given that it makes HYP mode inaccessible to the operating system. So let's make sure that we can deal with this condition gracefully. We already tolerate booting the EFI stub with the caches off (even though this violates the EFI spec as well), and so we should deal with HYP mode boot with MMU and caches either on or off. - When the MMU and caches are on, we can ignore the HYP stub altogether, since we can carry on executing at HYP. We do need to ensure that we disable the MMU at HYP before entering the kernel proper. - When the MMU and caches are off, we have to drop to SVC mode so that we can set up the page tables using short descriptors. In this case, we need to install the HYP stub as usual, so that we can return to HYP mode before handing over to the kernel proper.

ZBOOT_ROM_TEXT and ZBOOT_ROM_BSS are defined as 'hex' but had a default of "0". Kconfig will helpfully expand a text entry of 0 to 0x0 but because this is not the same as the default value it was treated as being explicitly set when running 'make savedefconfig' so most arm defconfigs have CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM_TEXT=0x0 and CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM_BSS=0x0. Change the default to 0x0 which will mean next time the defconfigs are re-generated the spurious config entries will be removed.

The patch introducing the struct was probably never compile tested, because it sets a handler with a wrong function signature.

The commits cd0e00c1 and 92d7223a broke boot on the Alpha Avanti platform. The patches move memory barriers after a write before the write. The result is that if there's iowrite followed by ioread, there is no barrier between them. The Alpha architecture allows reordering of the accesses to the I/O space, and the missing barrier between write and read causes hang with serial port and real time clock. This patch makes barriers confiorm to the specification. 1. We add mb() before readX_relaxed and writeX_relaxed - memory-barriers.txt claims that these functions must be ordered w.r.t. each other. Alpha doesn't order them, so we need an explicit barrier. 2. We add mb() before reads from the I/O space - so that if there's a write followed by a read, there should be a barrier between them.
