[ Upstream commit 69c907022a7d9325cdc5c9dd064571e445df9a47 ]
At the point of sysfs callback, the call to gup is
done without mmap_sem (or any lock for that matter).
This is racy. As such, use the get_user_pages_fast()
alternative and safely avoid taking the lock, if possible.Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso

[ Upstream commit 173a3efd3edb2ef6ef07471397c5f542a360e9c1 ]
Looking at functions with large stack frames across all architectures
led me discovering that BUG() suffers from the same problem as
fortify_panic(), which I've added a workaround for already.In short, variables that go out of scope by calling a noreturn function
or __builtin_unreachable() keep using stack space in functions
afterwards.A workaround that was identified is to insert an empty assembler
statement just before calling the function that doesn't return. I'm
adding a macro "barrier_before_unreachable()" to document this, and
insert calls to that in all instances of BUG() that currently suffer
from this problem.The files that saw the largest change from this had these frame sizes
before, and much less with my patch:fs/ext4/inode.c:82:1: warning: the frame size of 1672 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
fs/ext4/namei.c:434:1: warning: the frame size of 904 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c:1500:1: warning: the frame size of 1088 bytes is larger than 800 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]In case of ARC and CRIS, it turns out that the BUG() implementation
actually does return (or at least the compiler thinks it does),
resulting in lots of warnings about uninitialized variable use and
leaving noreturn functions, such as:block/cfq-iosched.c: In function 'cfq_async_queue_prio':
block/cfq-iosched.c:3804:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]
include/linux/dmaengine.h: In function 'dma_maxpq':
include/linux/dmaengine.h:1123:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]This makes them call __builtin_trap() instead, which should normally
dump the stack and kill the current process, like some of the other
architectures already do.I tried adding barrier_before_unreachable() to panic() and
fortify_panic() as well, but that had very little effect, so I'm not
submitting that patch.Vineet said:

Revert "x86/mm: Stop calling leave_mm() in idle code"

This reverts commit 43858b4f25cf0adc5c2ca9cf5ce5fdf2532941e5.
The reason I removed the leave_mm() calls in question is because the
heuristic wasn't needed after that patch. With the original version
of my PCID series, we never flushed a "lazy cpu" (i.e. a CPU running
kernel thread) due a flush on the loaded mm.Unfortunately, that caused architectural issues, so now I've
reinstated these flushes on non-PCID systems in:commit b956575bed91 ("x86/mm: Flush more aggressively in lazy TLB mode").
That, in turn, gives us a power management and occasionally
performance regression as compared to old kernels: a process that
goes into a deep idle state on a given CPU and gets its mm flushed
due to activity on a different CPU will wake the idle CPU.Reinstate the old ugly heuristic: if a CPU goes into ACPI C3 or an
intel_idle state that is likely to cause a TLB flush gets its mm
switched to init_mm before going idle.FWIW, this heuristic is lousy. Whether we should change CR3 before
idle isn't a good hint except insofar as the performance hit is a bit
lower if the TLB is getting flushed by the idle code anyway. What we
really want to know is whether we anticipate being idle long enough
that the mm is likely to be flushed before we wake up. This is more a
matter of the expected latency than the idle state that gets chosen.
This heuristic also completely fails on systems that don't know
whether the TLB will be flushed (e.g. AMD systems?). OTOH it may be a
bit obsolete anyway -- PCID systems don't presently benefit from this
heuristic at all.We also shouldn't do this callback from innermost bit of the idle code
due to the RCU nastiness it causes. All the information need is
available before rcu_idle_enter() needs to happen.Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Life has been busy and I have not gotten half as much done this round
as I would have liked. I delayed it so that a minor conflict
resolution with the mips tree could spend a little time in linux-next
before I sent this pull request.This includes two long delayed user namespace changes from Kirill
Tkhai. It also includes a very useful change from Serge Hallyn that
allows the security capability attribute to be used inside of user
namespaces. The practical effect of this is people can now untar
tarballs and install rpms in user namespaces. It had been suggested to
generalize this and encode some of the namespace information
information in the xattr name. Upon close inspection that makes the
things that should be hard easy and the things that should be easy
more expensive.Then there is my bugfix/cleanup for signal injection that removes the
magic encoding of the siginfo union member from the kernel internal
si_code. The mips folks reported the case where I had used FPE_FIXME
me is impossible so I have remove FPE_FIXME from mips, while at the
same time including a return statement in that case to keep gcc from
complaining about unitialized variables.I almost finished the work to get make copy_siginfo_to_user a trivial
copy to user. The code is available at:git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git neuter-copy_siginfo_to_user-v3
But I did not have time/energy to get the code posted and reviewed
before the merge window opened.I was able to see that the security excuse for just copying fields
that we know are initialized doesn't work in practice there are buggy
initializations that don't initialize the proper fields in siginfo. So
we still sometimes copy unitialized data to userspace"* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption supportThe main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
hardware features of x86 CPUs:- Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
default.(By Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
decrypt) as well.This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
by default.(By Tom Lendacky)
- Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
switch mm's.(By Andy Lutomirski)
All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
are all enabled in v4.14 at once"* 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (65 commits)

There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
and comparison of the result.Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
commit 5f16a046f8e1 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a29703 ("s390/uaccess:
remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets
optimized away anyway).Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby

There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics,

Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB
problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2].Quote from Mel Gorman:
"The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs
while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs.
CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty
check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to
flush.Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially
writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a
subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the
underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future
may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even
though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible
but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it
happening."This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for
other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3].TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending
and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can
catch there are parallel threads going on. In that case, forcefully,
flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry
although it fail to gather page table entry.I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this
patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range
v2" in current mmotm.NOTE:
This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64,
s390, sh, um). It seems most of architecture are straightforward but
s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if
mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry
really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends. However, this
problem never changes the pte entries but need to flush to prevent
memory access from stale tlb.[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170725101230.5v7gvnjmcnkzzql3@techsingularity.net

This patch is a preparatory patch for solving race problems caused by
TLB batch. For that, we will increase/decrease TLB flush pending count
of mm_struct whenever tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu is called.Before making it simple, this patch separates architecture specific part
and rename it to arch_tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu and generic part just
calls it.It shouldn't change any behavior.

struct siginfo is a union and the kernel since 2.4 has been hiding a union
tag in the high 16bits of si_code using the values:
__SI_KILL
__SI_TIMER
__SI_POLL
__SI_FAULT
__SI_CHLD
__SI_RT
__SI_MESGQ
__SI_SYSWhile this looks plausible on the surface, in practice this situation has
not worked well.- Injected positive signals are not copied to user space properly
unless they have these magic high bits set.- Injected positive signals are not reported properly by signalfd
unless they have these magic high bits set.- These kernel internal values leaked to userspace via ptrace_peek_siginfo
- It was possible to inject these kernel internal values and cause the
the kernel to misbehave.- Kernel developers got confused and expected these kernel internal values
in userspace in kernel self tests.- Kernel developers got confused and set si_code to __SI_FAULT which
is SI_USER in userspace which causes userspace to think an ordinary user
sent the signal and that it was not kernel generated.- The values make it impossible to reorganize the code to transform
siginfo_copy_to_user into a plain copy_to_user. As si_code must
be massaged before being passed to userspace.So remove these kernel internal si codes and make the kernel code simpler
and more maintainable.To replace these kernel internal magic si_codes introduce the helper
function siginfo_layout, that takes a signal number and an si_code and
computes which union member of siginfo is being used. Have
siginfo_layout return an enumeration so that gcc will have enough
information to warn if a switch statement does not handle all of union
members.A couple of architectures have a messed up ABI that defines signal
specific duplications of SI_USER which causes more special cases in
siginfo_layout than I would like. The good news is only problem
architectures pay the cost.Update all of the code that used the previous magic __SI_ values to
use the new SIL_ values and to call siginfo_layout to get those
values. Escept where not all of the cases are handled remove the
defaults in the switch statements so that if a new case is missed in
the future the lack will show up at compile time.Modify the code that copies siginfo si_code to userspace to just copy
the value and not cast si_code to a short first. The high bits are no
longer used to hold a magic union member.Fixup the siginfo header files to stop including the __SI_ values in
their constants and for the headers that were missing it to properly
update the number of si_codes for each signal type.The fixes to copy_siginfo_from_user32 implementations has the
interesting property that several of them perviously should never have
worked as the __SI_ values they depended up where kernel internal.
With that dependency gone those implementations should work much
better.The idea of not passing the __SI_ values out to userspace and then
not reinserting them has been tested with criu and criu worked without
changes.Ref: 2.4.0-test1

Setting si_code to __SI_FAULT results in a userspace seeing
an si_code of 0. This is the same si_code as SI_USER. Posix
and common sense requires that SI_USER not be a signal specific
si_code. As such this use of 0 for the si_code is a pretty
horribly broken ABI.Given that ia64 is on it's last legs I don't know that it is worth
fixing this, but it is worth documenting what is going on so that
no one decides to copy this bad decision.This was introduced in 2.3.51 so this mess has had a long time for
people to be able to start depending on it.Cc: Tony Luck

far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not
watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in
the kernel's .bss section."This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one
advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because
vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1493281021-20737-1-git-send-email-xlpang@redhat.com

various advantages:- save disk space for builds
- speed-up building a little
- fix some link issues (for example, allyesconfig on ARM) due to more
flexibility for the final linking- work better with dead code elimination we are planning
As discussed before, this migration has been done unconditionally so
that any problems caused by this will show up with "git bisect".With testing with 0-day and linux-next, some architectures actually
showed up problems, but they were trivial and all fixed now"* tag 'kbuild-thinar-v4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild:
tile: remove unneeded extra-y in Makefile
