[ Upstream commit 0c18f29aae7ce3dadd26d8ee3505d07cc982df75 ]
Irrespective as to whether CONFIG_MODULE_SIG is configured, specifying
"module.sig_enforce=1" on the boot command line sets "sig_enforce".
Only allow "sig_enforce" to be set when CONFIG_MODULE_SIG is configured.
This patch makes the presence of /sys/module/module/parameters/sig_enforce
dependent on CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y.
Fixes: fda784e50aac ("module: export module signature enforcement status")

commit 262e6ae7081df304fc625cf368d5c2cbba2bb991 upstream.
If a TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE exports symbol, inherit the taint flag
for all modules importing these symbols, and don't allow loading
symbols from TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE modules if the module previously
imported gplonly symbols. Add a anti-circumvention devices so people
don't accidentally get themselves into trouble this way.

commit ebfac7b778fac8b0e8e92ec91d0b055f046b4604 upstream.
clang-12 -fno-pic (since
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/a084c0388e2a59b9556f2de0083333232da3f1d6)
can emit `call __stack_chk_fail@PLT` instead of `call __stack_chk_fail`
on x86. The two forms should have identical behaviors on x86-64 but the
former causes GNU as<2.37 to produce an unreferenced undefined symbol
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
(On x86-32, there is an R_386_PC32 vs R_386_PLT32 difference but the
linker behavior is identical as far as Linux kernel is concerned.)
Simply ignore _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ for now, like what
scripts/mod/modpost.c:ignore_undef_symbol does. This also fixes the
problem for gcc/clang -fpie and -fpic, which may emit `call foo@PLT` for
external function calls on x86.
Note: ld -z defs and dynamic loaders do not error for unreferenced
undefined symbols so the module loader is reading too much. If we ever
need to ignore more symbols, the code should be refactored to ignore
unreferenced symbols.

[ Upstream commit 38dc717e97153e46375ee21797aa54777e5498f3 ]
Apparently there has been a longstanding race between udev/systemd and
the module loader. Currently, the module loader sends a uevent right
after sysfs initialization, but before the module calls its init
function. However, some udev rules expect that the module has
initialized already upon receiving the uevent.
This race has been triggered recently (see link in references) in some
systemd mount unit files. For instance, the configfs module creates the
/sys/kernel/config mount point in its init function, however the module
loader issues the uevent before this happens. sys-kernel-config.mount
expects to be able to mount /sys/kernel/config upon receipt of the
module loading uevent, but if the configfs module has not called its
init function yet, then this directory will not exist and the mount unit
fails. A similar situation exists for sys-fs-fuse-connections.mount, as
the fuse sysfs mount point is created during the fuse module's init
function. If udev is faster than module initialization then the mount
unit would fail in a similar fashion.
To fix this race, delay the module KOBJ_ADD uevent until after the
module has finished calling its init routine.

commit 11990a5bd7e558e9203c1070fc52fb6f0488e75b upstream.
The only-root-readable /sys/module/$module/sections/$section files
did not truncate their output to the available buffer size. While most
paths into the kernfs read handlers end up using PAGE_SIZE buffers,
it's possible to get there through other paths (e.g. splice, sendfile).
Actually limit the output to the "count" passed into the read function,
and report it back correctly. *sigh*

commit b25a7c5af9051850d4f3d93ca500056ab6ec724b upstream.

# capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
0xffffffffc0458000

...
# capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
0x0000000000000000
...
Additionally replaces the existing (safe) /proc/modules check with
file->f_cred for consistency.

commit 8d1b73dd25ff92c3fa9807a20c22fa2b44c07336 upstream.
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct module_sect_attrs {
...
struct module_sect_attr attrs[0];
};
Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.
So, replace the following form:
sizeof(*sect_attrs) + nloaded * sizeof(sect_attrs->attrs[0]
with:
struct_size(sect_attrs, attrs, nloaded)
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

commit 160251842cd35a75edfb0a1d76afa3eb674ff40a upstream.
In order to perform future tests against the cred saved during open(),
switch kallsyms_show_value() to operate on a cred, and have all current
callers pass current_cred(). This makes it very obvious where callers
are checking the wrong credential in their "read" contexts. These will
be fixed in the coming patches.
Additionally switch return value to bool, since it is always used as a
direct permission check, not a 0-on-success, negative-on-error style
function return.

info->mod->name
[ Upstream commit 708e0ada1916be765b7faa58854062f2bc620bbf ]
In setup_load_info(), info->name (which contains the name of the module,
mostly used for early logging purposes before the module gets set up)
gets unconditionally assigned if .modinfo is missing despite the fact
that there is an if (!info->name) check near the end of the function.
Avoid assigning a placeholder string to info->name if .modinfo doesn't
exist, so that we can fall back to info->mod->name later on.

[ Upstream commit 38f054d549a869f22a02224cd276a27bf14b6171 ]
Some arches (e.g., arm64, x86) have moved towards non-executable
module_alloc() allocations for security hardening reasons. That means
that the module loader will need to set the text section of a module to
executable, regardless of whether or not CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set.
When CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y, module section allocations are always
page-aligned to handle memory rwx permissions. On some arches with
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=n however, when setting the module text to
executable, the BUG_ON() in frob_text() gets triggered since module
section allocations are not page-aligned when CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=n.
Since the set_memory_* API works with pages, and since we need to call
set_memory_x() regardless of whether CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set, we
might as well page-align all module section allocations for ease of
managing rwx permissions of module sections (text, rodata, etc).

[ Upstream commit 6e6de3dee51a439f76eb73c22ae2ffd2c9384712 ]
Microsoft HyperV disables the X86_FEATURE_SMCA bit on AMD systems, and
linux guests boot with repeated errors:
amd64_edac_mod: Unknown symbol amd_unregister_ecc_decoder (err -2)

amd64_edac_mod: Unknown symbol amd_register_ecc_decoder (err -2)
amd64_edac_mod: Unknown symbol amd_report_gart_errors (err -2)
The warnings occur because the module code erroneously returns -EEXIST
for modules that have failed to load and are in the process of being
removed from the module list.
module amd64_edac_mod has a dependency on module edac_mce_amd. Using
modules.dep, systemd will load edac_mce_amd for every request of
amd64_edac_mod. When the edac_mce_amd module loads, the module has
state MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED and once the module load fails and the state
becomes MODULE_STATE_GOING. Another request for edac_mce_amd module
executes and add_unformed_module() will erroneously return -EEXIST even
though the previous instance of edac_mce_amd has MODULE_STATE_GOING.
Upon receiving -EEXIST, systemd attempts to load amd64_edac_mod, which
fails because of unknown symbols from edac_mce_amd.
add_unformed_module() must wait to return for any case other than
MODULE_STATE_LIVE to prevent a race between multiple loads of
dependent modules.

# define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
#endif
We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.
Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

[ Upstream commit f2c65fb3221adc6b73b0549fc7ba892022db9797 ]
When modules and BPF filters are loaded, there is a time window in
which some memory is both writable and executable. An attacker that has
already found another vulnerability (e.g., a dangling pointer) might be
able to exploit this behavior to overwrite kernel code. Prevent having
writable executable PTEs in this stage.
In addition, avoiding having W+X mappings can also slightly simplify the
patching of modules code on initialization (e.g., by alternatives and
static-key), as would be done in the next patch. This was actually the
main motivation for this patch.
To avoid having W+X mappings, set them initially as RW (NX) and after
they are set as RO set them as X as well. Setting them as executable is
done as a separate step to avoid one core in which the old PTE is cached
(hence writable), and another which sees the updated PTE (executable),
which would break the W^X protection.

An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries,
each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to
the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively.
When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an
additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte
entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot
time.
Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely
local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL()
itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references
instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all
64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for
architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64)
or using custom host tools (x86).
Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each
section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the
input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch
does not interfere with that.
Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in
the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for
all architectures. So make it dependent on whether
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

We want to be able to log the module name in early error messages, such as
when module signature verification fails. Previously, the module name is
set in layout_and_allocate(), meaning that any error messages that happen
before (such as those in module_sig_check()) won't be logged with a module
name, which isn't terribly helpful.
In order to do this, reshuffle the order in load_module() and set up
load info earlier so that we can log the module name along with these
error messages. This requires splitting rewrite_section_headers() out of
setup_load_info().
While we're at it, clean up and split up the operations done in
layout_and_allocate(), setup_load_info(), and rewrite_section_headers()
more cleanly so these functions only perform what their names suggest.

In load_module(), it's not always clear whether we're handling the
temporary module copy in info->hdr (which is freed at the end of
load_module()) or if we're handling the module already allocated and
copied to it's final place. Adding an info->mod field and using it
whenever we're handling the temporary copy makes that explicitly clear.

Livepatch modules are special in that we preserve their entire symbol
tables in order to be able to apply relocations after module load. The
unwanted side effect of this is that undefined (SHN_UNDEF) symbols of
livepatch modules are accessible via the kallsyms api and this can
confuse symbol resolution in livepatch (klp_find_object_symbol()) and
cause subtle bugs in livepatch.
Have the module kallsyms api skip over SHN_UNDEF symbols. These symbols
are usually not available for normal modules anyway as we cut down their
symbol tables to just the core (non-undefined) symbols, so this should
really just affect livepatch modules. Note that this patch doesn't
affect the display of undefined symbols in /proc/kallsyms.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This patch makes the changes for kmalloc()-family (and kvmalloc()-family)
uses. It was done via automatic conversion with manual review for the
"CHECKME" non-standard cases noted below, using the following Coccinelle
script:
// pkey_cache = kmalloc(sizeof *pkey_cache + tprops->pkey_tbl_len *
// sizeof *pkey_cache->table, GFP_KERNEL);

load_module() creates W+X mappings via __vmalloc_node_range() (from
layout_and_allocate()->move_module()->module_alloc()) by using
PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC. These mappings are later cleaned up via
"call_rcu_sched(&freeinit->rcu, do_free_init)" from do_init_module().
This is a problem because call_rcu_sched() queues work, which can be run
after debug_checkwx() is run, resulting in a race condition. If hit,
the race results in a nasty splat about insecure W+X mappings, which
results in a poor user experience as these are not the mappings that
debug_checkwx() is intended to catch.
This issue is observed on multiple arm64 platforms, and has been
artificially triggered on an x86 platform.
Address the race by flushing the queued work before running the
arch-defined mark_rodata_ro() which then calls debug_checkwx().

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
"This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
[ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ]
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
will be similar
[ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]"

The CONFIG_MPU option was only defined on blackfin, and that architecture
is now being removed, so the respective code can be simplified.
A lot of other microcontrollers have an MPU, but I suspect that if we
want to bring that support back, we'd do it differently anyway.

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.
