commit 3a158a62da0673db918b53ac1440845a5b64fd90 upstream.
The metag implementation of strncpy_from_user() doesn't validate the src
pointer, which could allow reading of arbitrary kernel memory. Add a
short access_ok() check to prevent that.
Its still possible for it to read across the user/kernel boundary, but
it will invariably reach a NUL character after only 9 bytes, leaking
only a static kernel address being loaded into D0Re0 at the beginning of
__start, which is acceptable for the immediate fix.

commit 8a8b56638bcac4e64cccc88bf95a0f9f4b19a2fb upstream.
The __user_bad() macro used by access_ok() has a few corner cases
noticed by Al Viro where it doesn't behave correctly:
- The kernel range check has off by 1 errors which permit access to the
first and last byte of the kernel mapped range.
- The kernel range check ends at LINCORE_BASE rather than
META_MEMORY_LIMIT, which is ineffective when the kernel is in global
space (an extremely uncommon configuration).
There are a couple of other shortcomings here too:
- Access to the whole of the other address space is permitted (i.e. the
global half of the address space when the kernel is in local space).
This isn't ideal as it could theoretically still contain privileged
mappings set up by the bootloader.
- The size argument is unused, permitting user copies which start on
valid pages at the end of the user address range and cross the
boundary into the kernel address space (e.g. addr = 0x3ffffff0, size
> 0x10).
It isn't very convenient to add size checks when disallowing certain
regions, and it seems far safer to be sure and explicit about what
userland is able to access, so invert the logic to allow certain regions
instead, and fix the off by 1 errors and missing size checks. This also
allows the get_fs() == KERNEL_DS check to be more easily optimised into
the user address range case.
We now have 3 such allowed regions:
- The user address range (incorporating the get_fs() == KERNEL_DS
check).
- NULL (some kernel code expects this to work, and we'll always catch
the fault anyway).
- The core code memory region.

commit 563ddc1076109f2b3f88e6d355eab7b6fd4662cb upstream.
Currently we try to zero the destination for a failed read from userland
in fixup code in the usercopy.c macros. The rest of the destination
buffer is then zeroed from __copy_user_zeroing(), which is used for both
copy_from_user() and __copy_from_user().
Unfortunately we fail to zero in the fixup code as D1Ar1 is set to 0
before the fixup code entry labels, and __copy_from_user() shouldn't even
be zeroing the rest of the buffer.
Move the zeroing out into copy_from_user() and rename
__copy_user_zeroing() to raw_copy_from_user() since it no longer does
any zeroing. This also conveniently matches the name needed for
RAW_COPY_USER support in a later patch.

The definition of atomic_dec_if_positive() assumes that
atomic_sub_if_positive() exists, which is only the case if
metag specific atomics are used. This results in the following
build error when trying to build metag1_defconfig.
kernel/ucount.c: In function 'dec_ucount':
kernel/ucount.c:211: error:
implicit declaration of function 'atomic_sub_if_positive'
Moving the definition of atomic_dec_if_positive() into the metag
conditional code fixes the problem.

"Just a few minor fixes:

metag: Fix typos
|
|
The LNKGET based atomic sequence in __cmpxchg_u32 has slightly incorrect
constraints for the return value which under certain circumstances can
allow an address unit register to be used as the first operand of a CMP
instruction. This isn't a valid instruction however as the encodings
only allow a data unit to be specified. This would result in an
assembler error like the following:
Error: failed to assemble instruction: "CMP A0.2,D0Ar6"
Fix by changing the constraint from "=&da" (assigned, early clobbered,
data or address unit register) to "=&d" (data unit register only).
The constraint for the second operand, "bd" (an op2 register where op1
is a data unit register and the instruction supports O2R) is already
correct assuming the first operand is a data unit register.
Other cases of CMP in inline asm have had their constraints checked, and
appear to all be fine.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.
This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
to modification).

This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.
The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.
This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.
I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.
Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.
I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.
Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently

The newer renameat2 syscall provides all the functionality provided by
the renameat syscall and adds flags, so future architectures won't need
to include renameat.
Therefore drop the renameat syscall from the generic syscall list unless
__ARCH_WANT_RENAMEAT is defined by the architecture's unistd.h prior to
including asm-generic/unistd.h, and adjust all architectures using the
generic syscall list to define it so that no in-tree architectures are
affected.

The argument i of atomic_*_return() operations is given to inline asm
with the "bd" constraint, which means "An Op2 register where Op1 is a
data unit register and the instruction supports O2R", however Op1 is
constrained by "da" which allows an address unit register to be used.
Fix the constraint to use "br", meaning "An Op2 register and the
instruction supports O2R", i.e. not requiring Op1 to be a data unit
register.

This patch updates all instances of csum_tcpudp_magic and
csum_tcpudp_nofold to reflect the types that are usually used as the source
inputs. For example the protocol field is populated based on nexthdr which
is actually an unsigned 8 bit value. The length is usually populated based
on skb->len which is an unsigned integer.
This addresses an issue in which the IPv6 function csum_ipv6_magic was
generating a checksum using the full 32b of skb->len while
csum_tcpudp_magic was only using the lower 16 bits. As a result we could
run into issues when attempting to adjust the checksum as there was no
protocol agnostic way to update it.
With this change the value is still truncated as many architectures use
"(len + proto) << 8", however this truncation only occurs for values
greater than 16776960 in length and as such is unlikely to occur as we stop
the inner headers at ~64K in size.
I did have to make a few minor changes in the arm, mn10300, nios2, and
score versions of the function in order to support these changes as they
were either using things such as an OR to combine the protocol and length,
or were using ntohs to convert the length which would have truncated the
value.
I also updated a few spots in terms of whitespace and type differences for
the addresses. Most of this was just to make sure all of the definitions
were in sync going forward.

asm/gpio.h is included only by linux/gpio.h, and then only when the arch
selects ARCH_HAVE_CUSTOM_GPIO_H. Only the following arches select it: arm
avr32 blackfin m68k (COLDFIRE only) sh unicore32.
Remove the unused asm/gpio.h files for the arches that do not select
ARCH_HAVE_CUSTOM_GPIO_H.

This defines __smp_xxx barriers for metag,
for use by virtualization.
smp_xxx barriers are removed as they are
defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h
Note: as __smp_XX macros should not depend on CONFIG_SMP, they can not
use the existing fence() macro since that is defined differently between
SMP and !SMP. For this reason, this patch introduces a wrapper
metag_fence() that doesn't depend on CONFIG_SMP.
fence() is then defined using that, depending on CONFIG_SMP.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.
* 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy
string: provide strscpy()

This patch makes sure that atomic_{read,set}() are at least
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE().
We already had the 'requirement' that atomic_read() should use
ACCESS_ONCE(), and most archs had this, but a few were lacking.
All are now converted to use READ_ONCE().
And, by a symmetry and general paranoia argument, upgrade atomic_set()
to use WRITE_ONCE().

"Main changes in this cycle are:
- Extend atomic primitives with coherent logic op primitives
(atomic_{or,and,xor}()) and deprecate the old partial APIs
(atomic_{set,clear}_mask())
The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across
architectures and with incomplete support. 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.
Then allow:
static_branch_likely()
static_branch_unlikely()
to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case. To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it
in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra)

This patch uses type unsigned long, instead of long, to format the ip
address. The code is more clearly to be viewed by using type unsigned
long, although it is correct by using either unsigned long or long.

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping
the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.
However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.
This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
powerpc architecture.
This patch (of 3):
This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
- per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
- a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)
The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.
The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
case the architecture is not defining it.
In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
be moved here.

This replaces the plain loop over the sglist array with for_each_sg()
macro which consists of sg_next() function calls. Since metag doesn't
select ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN, it is not necessary to use for_each_sg() in
order to loop over each sg element. But this can help find problems
with drivers that do not properly initialize their sg tables when
