2018-02-06kcov: detect double association with a single taskDmitry Vyukov
Currently KCOV_ENABLE does not check if the current task is already associated with another kcov descriptor. As the result it is possible to associate a single task with more than one kcov descriptor, which later leads to a memory leak of the old descriptor. This relation is really meant to be one-to-one (task has only one back link). Extend validation to detect such misuse.

2018-02-06kernel/async.c: revert "async: simplify lowest_in_progress()"Rasmus Villemoes
This reverts commit 92266d6ef60c ("async: simplify lowest_in_progress()") which was simply wrong: In the case where domain is NULL, we now use the wrong offsetof() in the list_first_entry macro, so we don't actually fetch the ->cookie value, but rather the eight bytes located sizeof(struct list_head) further into the struct async_entry. On 64 bit, that's the data member, while on 32 bit, that's a u64 built from func and data in some order. I think the bug happens to be harmless in practice: It obviously only affects callers which pass a NULL domain, and AFAICT the only such caller is async_synchronize_full() -> async_synchronize_full_domain(NULL) -> async_synchronize_cookie_domain(ASYNC_COOKIE_MAX, NULL) and the ASYNC_COOKIE_MAX means that in practice we end up waiting for the async_global_pending list to be empty - but it would break if somebody happened to pass (void*)-1 as the data element to async_schedule, and of course also if somebody ever does a async_synchronize_cookie_domain(, NULL) with a "finite" cookie value. Maybe the "harmless in practice" means this isn't -stable material. But I'm not completely confident my quick git grep'ing is enough, and there might be affected code in one of the earlier kernels that has since been removed, so I'll leave the decision to the stable guys.

2018-02-06Makefile: introduce CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTOKees Cook
Nearly all modern compilers support a stack-protector option, and nearly all modern distributions enable the kernel stack-protector, so enabling this by default in kernel builds would make sense. However, Kconfig does not have knowledge of available compiler features, so it isn't safe to force on, as this would unconditionally break builds for the compilers or architectures that don't have support. Instead, this introduces a new option, CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO, which attempts to discover the best possible stack-protector available, and will allow builds to proceed even if the compiler doesn't support any stack-protector. This option is made the default so that kernels built with modern compilers will be protected-by-default against stack buffer overflows, avoiding things like the recent BlueBorne attack. Selection of a specific stack-protector option remains available, including disabling it. Additionally, tiny.config is adjusted to use CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE, since that's the option with the least code size (and it used to be the default, so we have to explicitly choose it there now).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux Pull hardened usercopy whitelisting from Kees Cook: "Currently, hardened usercopy performs dynamic bounds checking on slab cache objects. This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs. To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access control. Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to userspace via dynamic copy operations. (Note, an implicit form of whitelisting is the use of constant sizes in usercopy operations and get_user()/put_user(); these bypass all hardened usercopy checks since these sizes cannot change at runtime.) This new check is WARN-by-default, so any mistakes can be found over the next several releases without breaking anyone's system. The series has roughly the following sections: - remove %p and improve reporting with offset - prepare infrastructure and whitelist kmalloc - update VFS subsystem with whitelists - update SCSI subsystem with whitelists - update network subsystem with whitelists - update process memory with whitelists - update per-architecture thread_struct with whitelists - update KVM with whitelists and fix ioctl bug - mark all other allocations as not whitelisted - update lkdtm for more sensible test overage" * tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: (38 commits) lkdtm: Update usercopy tests for whitelisting usercopy: Restrict non-usercopy caches to size 0 kvm: x86: fix KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG ioctl kvm: whitelist struct kvm_vcpu_arch arm: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy arm64: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy x86: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy fork: Provide usercopy whitelisting for task_struct fork: Define usercopy region in thread_stack slab caches fork: Define usercopy region in mm_struct slab caches net: Restrict unwhitelisted proto caches to size 0 sctp: Copy struct sctp_sock.autoclose to userspace using put_user() sctp: Define usercopy region in SCTP proto slab cache caif: Define usercopy region in caif proto slab cache ip: Define usercopy region in IP proto slab cache net: Define usercopy region in struct proto slab cache scsi: Define usercopy region in scsi_sense_cache slab cache cifs: Define usercopy region in cifs_request slab cache vxfs: Define usercopy region in vxfs_inode slab cache ufs: Define usercopy region in ufs_inode_cache slab cache ...
2018-02-02x86/power: Fix swsusp_arch_resume prototypeArnd Bergmann
The declaration for swsusp_arch_resume marks it as 'asmlinkage', but the definition in x86-32 does not, and it fails to include the header with the declaration. This leads to a warning when building with link-time-optimizations: kernel/power/power.h:108:23: error: type of 'swsusp_arch_resume' does not match original declaration [-Werror=lto-type-mismatch] extern asmlinkage int swsusp_arch_resume(void); ^ arch/x86/power/hibernate_32.c:148:0: note: 'swsusp_arch_resume' was previously declared here int swsusp_arch_resume(void) This moves the declaration into a globally visible header file and fixes up both x86 definitions to match it.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Add a console_msg_format command line option: The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log level>[timestamp] text" format. This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs at hands. - Reduce the risk of softlockup: Pass the console owner in a busy loop. This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep. On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the waiter. The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations. Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example, when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too much to flush. There is increasing number of people having problems with printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising direction. - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk(): This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output. This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective. - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier: It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function descriptors and show the real function address. It is done transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now. Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in a special elf section and could be easily detected. - Remove printk_symbol() API: It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API. - Remove redundant memsets: Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg command line option. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk: (27 commits) printk: drop redundant devkmsg_log_str memsets printk: Never set console_may_schedule in console_trylock() printk: Hide console waiter logic into helpers printk: Add console owner and waiter logic to load balance console writes kallsyms: remove print_symbol() function checkpatch: add pF/pf deprecation warning symbol lookup: introduce dereference_symbol_descriptor() parisc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference powerpc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference ia64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference sections: split dereference_function_descriptor() openrisc: Fix conflicting types for _exext and _stext lib: do not use print_symbol() irq debug: do not use print_symbol() sysfs: do not use print_symbol() drivers: do not use print_symbol() x86: do not use print_symbol() unicore32: do not use print_symbol() sh: do not use print_symbol() mn10300: do not use print_symbol() ...

Mostly small clean ups and fixes. The biggest change is to how bprintf works. bprintf is used by trace_printk() to just save the format and args of a printf call, and the formatting is done when the trace buffer is read. This is done to keep the formatting out of the fast path (this was recommended by you). The issue is when arguments are de-referenced. If a pointer is saved, and the format has something like "%*pbl", when the buffer is read, it will de-reference the argument then. The problem is if the data no longer exists. This can cause the kernel to oops. The fix for this was to make these de-reference pointes do the formatting at the time it is called (the fast path), as this guarantees that the data exists (and doesn't change later)" * tag 'trace-v4.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: vsprintf: Do not have bprintf dereference pointers ftrace: Mark function tracer test functions noinline/noclone trace_uprobe: Display correct offset in uprobe_events tracing: Make sure the parsed string always terminates with '\0' tracing: Clear parser->idx if only spaces are read tracing: Detect the string nul character when parsing user input string

2018-01-31mm, hugetlb: remove hugepages_treat_as_movable sysctlMichal Hocko
hugepages_treat_as_movable has been introduced by 396faf0303d2 ("Allow huge page allocations to use GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE") to allow hugetlb allocations from ZONE_MOVABLE even when hugetlb pages were not migrateable. The purpose of the movable zone was different at the time. It aimed at reducing memory fragmentation and hugetlb pages being long lived and large werre not contributing to the fragmentation so it was acceptable to use the zone back then. Things have changed though and the primary purpose of the zone became migratability guarantee. If we allow non migrateable hugetlb pages to be in ZONE_MOVABLE memory hotplug might fail to offline the memory. Remove the knob and only rely on hugepage_migration_supported to allow movable zones. Mel said: : Primarily it was aimed at allowing the hugetlb pool to safely shrink with : the ability to grow it again. The use case was for batched jobs, some of : which needed huge pages and others that did not but didn't want the memory : useless pinned in the huge pages pool. : : I suspect that more users rely on THP than hugetlbfs for flexible use of : huge pages with fallback options so I think that removing the option : should be ok.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs Pull poll annotations from Al Viro: "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as 'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local variables used to hold the future return value'. Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered at all on sparc.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman: "Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace. Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace. This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't copy any unitializied fields to userspace. The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a single definition that is shared between all architectures so that anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code assignments are arch independent. The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't think there was a single implementation of either of those functions that was complete and correct before my changes unified them. The design is to introduce a series of helpers including force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring struct siginfo is built correctly. The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1 material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user. Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out. The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace, and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards to siginfo generation. It is a lot but with the unification you can of siginfo you can already see the code reduction in the kernel" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (45 commits) signal/memory-failure: Use force_sig_mceerr and send_sig_mceerr mm/memory_failure: Remove unused trapno from memory_failure signal/ptrace: Add force_sig_ptrace_errno_trap and use it where needed signal/powerpc: Remove unnecessary signal_code parameter of do_send_trap signal: Helpers for faults with specialized siginfo layouts signal: Add send_sig_fault and force_sig_fault signal: Replace memset(info,...) with clear_siginfo for clarity signal: Don't use structure initializers for struct siginfo signal/arm64: Better isolate the COMPAT_TASK portion of ptrace_hbptriggered ptrace: Use copy_siginfo in setsiginfo and getsiginfo signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_to_user32 signal: Remove the code to clear siginfo before calling copy_siginfo_from_user32 signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_from_user32 signal/blackfin: Remove pointless UID16_SIGINFO_COMPAT_NEEDED signal/blackfin: Move the blackfin specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/tile: Move the tile specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/frv: Move the frv specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/ia64: Move the ia64 specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/powerpc: Remove redefinition of NSIGTRAP on powerpc signal: Move addr_lsb into the _sigfault union for clarity ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "The timer departement presents: - A rather large rework of the hrtimer infrastructure which introduces softirq based hrtimers to replace the spread of hrtimer/tasklet combos which force the actual callback execution into softirq context. The approach is completely different from the initial implementation which you cursed at 10 years ago rightfully. The softirq based timers have their own queues and there is no nasty indirection and list reshuffling in the hard interrupt anymore. This comes with conversion of some of the hrtimer/tasklet users, the rest and the final removal of that horrible interface will come towards the end of the merge window or go through the relevant maintainer trees.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This includes some infrastructure changes in the PM core, mostly related to integration between runtime PM and system-wide suspend and hibernation, plus some driver changes depending on them and fixes for issues in that area which have become quite apparent recently. Also included are changes making more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default, which turned out to be necessary to handle power button wakeups from suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3. On the cpufreq front we have fixes and cleanups in the core, some new hardware support, driver updates and the removal of some unused code from the CPU cooling thermal driver. Apart from this, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is prepared to be used with power domains in the future and there is a usual bunch of assorted fixes and cleanups. Specifics: - Define a PM driver flag allowing drivers to request that their devices be left in suspend after system-wide transitions to the working state if possible and add support for it to the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain (Rafael Wysocki). - Make the PM core carry out optimizations for devices with driver PM flags set in some cases and make a few drivers set those flags (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix and clean up wrapper routines allowing runtime PM device callbacks to be re-used for system-wide PM, change the generic power domains (genpd) framework to stop using those routines incorrectly and fix up a driver depending on that behavior of genpd (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Fix and clean up the PM core's device wakeup framework and re-factor system-wide PM core code related to device wakeup (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Brian Norris). - Make more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default (to fix power button wakeup from suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3) and add a kernel command line switch to tell it to ignore the system sleep blacklist in the ACPI core (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix a race condition related to cpufreq governor module removal and clean up the governor management code in the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki). - Drop the unused generic code related to the handling of the static power energy usage model in the CPU cooling thermal driver along with the corresponding documentation (Viresh Kumar). - Add mt2712 support to the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Andrew-sh Cheng). - Add a new operating point to the imx6ul and imx6q cpufreq drivers and switch the latter to using clk_bulk_get() (Anson Huang, Dong Aisheng). - Add support for multiple regulators to the TI cpufreq driver along with a new DT binding related to that and clean up that driver somewhat (Dave Gerlach). - Fix a powernv cpufreq driver regression leading to incorrect CPU frequency reporting, fix that driver to deal with non-continguous P-states correctly and clean it up (Gautham Shenoy, Shilpasri Bhat). - Add support for frequency scaling on Armada 37xx SoCs through the generic DT cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT). - Fix error code paths in the mvebu cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT). - Fix a transition delay setting regression in the longhaul cpufreq driver (Viresh Kumar). - Add Skylake X (server) support to the intel_pstate cpufreq driver and clean up that driver somewhat (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Clean up the cpufreq statistics collection code (Viresh Kumar). - Drop cluster terminology and dependency on physical_package_id from the PSCI driver and drop dependency on arm_big_little from the SCPI cpufreq driver (Sudeep Holla). - Add support for system-wide suspend and resume to the RAPL power capping driver and drop a redundant semicolon from it (Zhen Han, Luis de Bethencourt). - Make SPI domain validation (in the SCSI SPI transport driver) and system-wide suspend mutually exclusive as they rely on the same underlying mechanism and cannot be carried out at the same time (Bart Van Assche). - Fix the computation of the amount of memory to preallocate in the hibernation core and clean up one function in there (Rainer Fiebig, Kyungsik Lee). - Prepare the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework for being used with power domains and clean up one function in it (Viresh Kumar, Wei Yongjun). - Clean up the generic sysfs interface for device PM (Andy Shevchenko). - Fix several minor issues in power management frameworks and clean them up a bit (Arvind Yadav, Bjorn Andersson, Geert Uytterhoeven, Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Luis de Bethencourt, Paul Gortmaker, Sergey Senozhatsky, gaurav jindal). -

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs Pull init_task initializer cleanups from David Howells: "It doesn't seem useful to have the init_task in a header file rather than in a normal source file. We could consolidate init_task handling instead and expand out various macros. Here's a series of patches that consolidate init_task handling: (1) Make THREAD_SIZE available to vmlinux.lds for cris, hexagon and openrisc. (2) Alter the INIT_TASK_DATA linker script macro to set init_thread_union and init_stack rather than defining these in C. Insert init_task and init_thread_into into the init_stack area in the linker script as appropriate to the configuration, with different section markers so that they end up correctly ordered. We can then get merge ia64's init_task.c into the main one. We then have a bunch of single-use INIT_*() macros that seem only to be macros because they used to be used per-arch. We can then expand these in place of the user and get rid of a few lines and a lot of backslashes. (3) Expand INIT_TASK() in place. (4) Expand in place various small INIT_*() macros that are defined conditionally. Expand them and surround them by #if[n]def/#endif in the .c file as it takes fewer lines. (5) Expand INIT_SIGNALS() and INIT_SIGHAND() in place. (6) Expand INIT_STRUCT_PID in place.

Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2018-01-26 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) A number of extensions to tcp-bpf, from Lawrence. - direct R or R/W access to many tcp_sock fields via bpf_sock_ops - passing up to 3 arguments to bpf_sock_ops functions - tcp_sock field bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags for controlling callbacks - optionally calling bpf_sock_ops program when RTO fires - optionally calling bpf_sock_ops program when packet is retransmitted - optionally calling bpf_sock_ops program when TCP state changes - access to tclass and sk_txhash - new selftest 2) div/mod exception handling, from Daniel. One of the ugly leftovers from the early eBPF days is that div/mod operations based on registers have a hard-coded src_reg == 0 test in the interpreter as well as in JIT code generators that would return from the BPF program with exit code 0. This was basically adopted from cBPF interpreter for historical reasons. There are multiple reasons why this is very suboptimal and prone to bugs. To name one: the return code mapping for such abnormal program exit of 0 does not always match with a suitable program type's exit code mapping. For example, '0' in tc means action 'ok' where the packet gets passed further up the stack, which is just undesirable for such cases (e.g. when implementing policy) and also does not match with other program types. After considering _four_ different ways to address the problem, we adapt the same behavior as on some major archs like ARMv8: X div 0 results in 0, and X mod 0 results in X. aarch64 and aarch32 ISA do not generate any traps or otherwise aborts of program execution for unsigned divides. Given the options, it seems the most suitable from all of them, also since major archs have similar schemes in place. Given this is all in the realm of undefined behavior, we still have the option to adapt if deemed necessary. 3) sockmap sample refactoring, from John. 4) lpm map get_next_key fixes, from Yonghong. 5) test cleanups, from Alexei and Prashant. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
