Fix the stack decoder for the ARM architecture. An ARM stack is designed as : [ 81.547704] [<c023eb04>] (bucket_find_contain) from [<c023ec88>] (check_sync+0x40/0x4f8) [ 81.559668] [<c023ec88>] (check_sync) from [<c023f8c4>] (debug_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu+0x128/0x194) [ 81.571583] [<c023f8c4>] (debug_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu) from [<c0327dec>] (__videobuf_s The current script doesn't expect the symbols to be bound by parenthesis, and triggers the following errors : awk: cmd. line:1: error: Unmatched ( or \(: / (check_sync$/ [ 81.547704] (bucket_find_contain) from (check_sync+0x40/0x4f8) Fix it by chopping starting and ending parenthesis from the each symbol name. As a side note, this probably comes from the function dump_backtrace_entry(), which is implemented differently for each architecture. That makes a single decoding script a bit a challenge.

Editors like emacs and vi recognize a number of error message formats. The format used by the kerneldoc tool is not recognized by emacs. Change the kerneldoc error message format to the GNU style such that the emacs prev-error and next-error commands can be used to navigate through kerneldoc error messages. For more information about the GNU error message format, see also https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Errors.html.

fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked() is subtle to use because it temporarily releases group->mark_mutex. To avoid future problems with this function, split it into two. fsnotify_detach_mark() is the part that needs group->mark_mutex and fsnotify_free_mark() is the part that must be called outside of group->mark_mutex. This way it's much clearer what's going on and we also avoid some pointless acquisitions of group->mark_mutex. Signed-off-by:

A check in inotify_fdinfo() checking whether mark is valid was always true due to a bug. Luckily we can never get to invalidated marks since we hold mark_mutex and invalidated marks get removed from the group list when they are invalidated under that mutex. Anyway fix the check to make code more future proof. Signed-off-by:

I have a _tiny_ microbenchmark that sits in a loop and writes single bytes to a file. Writing one byte to a tmpfs file is around 2x slower than reading one byte from a file, which is a _bit_ more than I expecte. This is a dumb benchmark, but I think it's hard to deny that write() is a hot path and we should avoid unnecessary overhead there. I did a 'perf record' of 30-second samples of read and write. The top item in a diffprofile is srcu_read_lock() from fsnotify(). There are active inotify fd's from systemd, but nothing is actually listening to the file or its part of the filesystem. I *think* we can avoid taking the srcu_read_lock() for the common case where there are no actual marks on the file. This means that there will both be nothing to notify for *and* implies that there is no need for clearing the ignore mask. This patch gave a 13.1% speedup in writes/second on my test, which is an improvement from the 10.8% that I saw with the last version. Signed-off-by:

Architectures which support VGA console must define screen_info structurture from "uapi/linux/screen_info.h". Otherwise undefined symbol error occurs. Usually it's defined in "setup.c" for each architecture. If an architecture does not support VGA console (ARC's case) there are 2 ways: define a dummy instance of screen_info or add a negative dependency for VGA_CONSOLE in to prevent selecting this option. I've implemented the second way. However the best solution is to add HAVE_VGA_CONSOLE option for targets which support VGA console. Then turn off VGA_CONSOLE by default and add dependency to HAVE_VGA_CONSOLE. But right now it's better to just add a negative dependency for ARC and then consider how to collaborate about this issue with maintainers of other architectures. Signed-off-by:

Per Andrew Morgan's request, add a securebit to allow admins to disable PR_CAP_AMBIENT_RAISE. This securebit will prevent processes from adding capabilities to their ambient set. For simplicity, this disables PR_CAP_AMBIENT_RAISE entirely rather than just disabling setting previously cleared bits. Signed-off-by:

Credit where credit is due: this idea comes from Christoph Lameter with a lot of valuable input from Serge Hallyn. This patch is heavily based on Christoph's patch. ===== The status quo ===== On Linux, there are a number of capabilities defined by the kernel. To perform various privileged tasks, processes can wield capabilities that they hold. Each task has four capability masks: effective (pE), permitted (pP), inheritable (pI), and a bounding set (X). When the kernel checks for a capability, it checks pE. The other capability masks serve to modify what capabilities can be in pE. Any task can remove capabilities from pE, pP, or pI at any time. If a task has a capability in pP, it can add that capability to pE and/or pI. If a task has CAP_SETPCAP, then it can add any capability to pI, and it can remove capabilities from X. Tasks are not the only things that can have capabilities; files can also have capabilities. A file can have no capabilty information at all [1]. If a file has capability information, then it has a permitted mask (fP) and an inheritable mask (fI) as well as a single effective bit (fE) [2]. File capabilities modify the capabilities of tasks that execve(2) them. A task that successfully calls execve has its capabilities modified for the file ultimately being excecuted (i.e. the binary itself if that binary is ELF or for the interpreter if the binary is a script.) [3] In the capability evolution rules, for each mask Z, pZ represents the old value and pZ' represents the new value. The rules are: pP' = (X & fP) | (pI & fI) pI' = pI pE' = (fE ? pP' : 0) X is unchanged For setuid binaries, fP, fI, and fE are modified by a moderately complicated set of rules that emulate POSIX behavior. Similarly, if euid == 0 or ruid == 0, then fP, fI, and fE are modified differently (primary, fP and fI usually end up being the full set). For nonroot users executing binaries with neither setuid nor file caps, fI and fP are empty and fE is false. As an extra complication, if you execute a process as nonroot and fE is set, then the "secure exec" rules are in effect: AT_SECURE gets set, LD_PRELOAD doesn't work, etc. This is rather messy. We've learned that making any changes is dangerous, though: if a new kernel version allows an unprivileged program to change its security state in a way that persists cross execution of a setuid program or a program with file caps, this persistent state is surprisingly likely to allow setuid or file-capped programs to be exploited for privilege escalation. ===== The problem ===== Capability inheritance is basically useless. If you aren't root and you execute an ordinary binary, fI is zero, so your capabilities have no effect whatsoever on pP'. This means that you can't usefully execute a helper process or a shell command with elevated capabilities if you aren't root. On current kernels, you can sort of work around this by setting fI to the full set for most or all non-setuid executable files. This causes pP' = pI for nonroot, and inheritance works. No one does this because it's a PITA and it isn't even supported on most filesystems. If you try this, you'll discover that every nonroot program ends up with secure exec rules, breaking many things. This is a problem that has bitten many people who have tried to use capabilities for anything useful. ===== The proposed change ===== This patch adds a fifth capability mask called the ambient mask (pA). pA does what most people expect pI to do. pA obeys the invariant that no bit can ever be set in pA if it is not set in both pP and pI. Dropping a bit from pP or pI drops that bit from pA. This ensures that existing programs that try to drop capabilities still do so, with a complication. Because capability inheritance is so broken, setting KEEPCAPS, using setresuid to switch to nonroot uids, and then calling execve effectively drops capabilities. Therefore, setresuid from root to nonroot conditionally clears pA unless SECBIT_NO_SETUID_FIXUP is set. Processes that don't like this can re-add bits to pA afterwards. The capability evolution rules are changed: pA' = (file caps or setuid or setgid ? 0 : pA) pP' = (X & fP) | (pI & fI) | pA' pI' = pI pE' = (fE ? pP' : pA') X is unchanged If you are nonroot but you have a capability, you can add it to pA. If you do so, your children get that capability in pA, pP, and pE. For example, you can set pA = CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, and your children can automatically bind low-numbered ports. Hallelujah! Unprivileged users can create user namespaces, map themselves to a nonzero uid, and create both privileged (relative to their namespace) and unprivileged process trees. This is currently more or less impossible. Hallelujah! You cannot use pA to try to subvert a setuid, setgid, or file-capped program: if you execute any such program, pA gets cleared and the resulting evolution rules are unchanged by this patch. Users with nonzero pA are unlikely to unintentionally leak that capability. If they run programs that try to drop privileges, dropping privileges will still work. It's worth noting that the degree of paranoia in this patch could possibly be reduced without causing serious problems. Specifically, if we allowed pA to persist across executing non-pA-aware setuid binaries and across setresuid, then, naively, the only capabilities that could leak as a result would be the capabilities in pA, and any attacker *already* has those capabilities. This would make me nervous, though -- setuid binaries that tried to privilege-separate might fail to do so, and putting CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH or CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE into pA could have unexpected side effects. (Whether these unexpected side effects would be exploitable is an open question.) I've therefore taken the more paranoid route. We can revisit this later. An alternative would be to require PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS before setting ambient capabilities. I think that this would be annoying and would make granting otherwise unprivileged users minor ambient capabilities (CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE or CAP_NET_RAW for example) much less useful than it is with this patch. ===== Footnotes ===== [1] Files that are missing the "security.capability" xattr or that have unrecognized values for that xattr end up with has_cap set to false. The code that does that appears to be complicated for no good reason. [2] The libcap capability mask parsers and formatters are dangerously misleading and the documentation is flat-out wrong. fE is *not* a mask; it's a single bit. This has probably confused every single person who has tried to use file capabilities. [3] Linux very confusingly processes both the script and the interpreter if applicable, for reasons that elude me. The results from thinking about a script's file capabilities and/or setuid bits are mostly discarded.

Commit f9126ab9 ("memory-hotplug: fix wrong edge when hot add a new node") hot-added memory range to memblock, after creating pgdat for new node.

As a result, when adding memory, dmesg will give the following wrong message.

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.3 kernel cycle. There is quite a lot going on in the GPIO subsystem this merge window, so the main matter is decribed below. The hits in other subsystems when making the GPIO flags optional are all ACKed by their respective subsystem maintainers. Core changes: - Root out the wrapper devm_gpiod_get() and gpiod_get() etc versions of the descriptor calls that did not use the flags argument on the end. This was around for too long and eventually Uwe Kleine-König took the time to clean it out and the last users are removed along with the macros in this tag. In several cases the use of flags simplifies the code. For this reason we have (ACKed) patches hitting in DRM, IIO, media, NFC, USB+PHY up until we hammer in the nail with removing the macros. - Add a fat document describing how much ready-made GPIO stuff we have i the kernel to discourage people from reinventing a square wheel in userspace, as so often happens. - Create a separate lockdep class for each instance of a GPIO IRQ chip instead of using one class for all chips, as the current code will not work with systems with several GPIO chips doing lockdep debugging. - Protect against driver unloading also when a GPIO line is only used as IRQ for the GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP helpers. - If the GPIO chip has no designated owner, assign the parent device driver owner as owner. - Consolidation of chained IRQ handler install/remove replacing all call sites where irq_set_handler_data() and irq_set_chained_handler() were done in succession with a combined call to irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(). This series was created by Thomas Gleixner after the problem was observed by Russell King. - Tglx also made another series of patches switching __irq_set_handler_locked() for irq_set_handler_locked() which is way cleaner. - Tglx and Jiang Liu wrote a good bunch of patches to make use of irq_desc_get_xxx() accessors and avoid looking up irq_descs from IRQ numbers. The goal is to get rid of the irq number from the handlers in the IRQ flow which is nice. - Rob Herring killed off the set_irq_flags() for all GPIO drivers. This was an ARM specific function that is replaced with the generic irq_modify_status() where special flags are actually needed. - When an OF node has a pin range for its GPIOs, return -EPROBE_DEFER if the pin controller isn't available. Pretty logical, yet needed to be fixed. - If a driver using GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP has its own irq_*_resources call back, then call these instead of the defaults provided by the GPIOLIB. - Fix an undocumented ABI hole: named GPIOs were not properly documented. Driver improvements: - Add get_direction() support to the generic GPIO driver, it's strange that we didn't have that before. - Make it possible to have input-only GPIO chips using the generic GPIO driver. - Clean out platform data support from the Emma Mobile (EM) driver - Finegrained runtime PM support for the RCAR driver. - Support r8a7795 (R-car H3) in the RCAR driver. - Support interrupts on GPIOs 16 thru 31 in the DaVinci driver. - Some consolidation and new support in the MPC8xxx driver, we now support MPC5125. - Preempt-RT-friendly patches: the OMAP, MPC8xxx, drivers uses raw spinlocks making it work better with the realime patches. - Interrupt support for the EXTRAXFS GPIO driver. - Make the ETRAXFS GPIO driver support also ARTPEC-3. - Interrupt and wakeup support for the BRCMSTB driver, also for wakeup from S5 cold boot. - Mask MXC IRQs during suspend. - Improve OMAP2 GPIO set_debounce() to work according to spec. - The VF610 driver handles IRQs properly.

Here's the summary: Three fixes that didn't make 4.2-stable: - a -Os build might compile the kernel using the MIPS16 instruction set but the R2 optimized inline functions in <uapi/asm/swab.h> are implemented using 32-bit wide instructions which is invalid. - a build error in pgtable-bits.h for a particular kernel configuration. - accessing registers of the CM GCR might have been compiled to use 64 bit accesses but these registers are onl 32 bit wide. And also a few new bits: - move the ATH79 GPIO driver to drivers/gpio - the definition of IRQCHIP_DECLARE has moved to linux/irqchip.h, change ATH79 accordingly. - fix definition of pgprot_writecombine - add an implementation of dma_map_ops.mmap - fix alignment of quiet build output for vmlinuz link - BCM47xx: Use kmemdup rather than duplicating its implementation - Netlogic: Fix 0x0x prefixes of constants. - merge Bjorn Helgaas' series to remove most of the weak keywords from function declarations. - CP0 and CP1 registers are best considered treated as unsigned values to avoid large values from becoming negative values. - improve support for the MIPS GIC timer. - enable common clock framework for Malta and SEAD3. - a number of improvments and fixes to dump_tlb(). - document the MIPS TLB dump functionality in Magic SysRq. - Cavium Octeon CN68XX improvments. - NetLogic improvments. - irq: Use access helper irq_data_get_affinity_mask. - handle MSA unaligned accesses. - a number of R6-related math-emu fixes. - support for I6400. - improvments to MSA support. - add uprobes support. - move from deprecated __initcall to arch_initcall. - remove finish_arch_switch(). - IRQ cleanups by Thomas Gleixner. - migrate to new 'set-state' interface. - random small cleanups" * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: (148 commits) MIPS: UAPI: Fix unrecognized opcode WSBH/DSBH/DSHD when using MIPS16.

Now every architecture supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra) - Generic support for 'relaxed atomics': - _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return() - atomic_read_acquire() - atomic_set_release() This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon) - Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs, by introducing a new one: DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name); DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name); which define a key of different types with an initial true/false value.
