    Xtensa ABI requires stack alignment to be at least 16. In noMMU
    configuration ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN is used to align stack. Make it at
    least 16.

    This fixes the following runtime error in noMMU configuration, caused by
    interaction between insufficiently aligned stack and alloca function,
    that results in corruption of on-stack variable in the libc function
    glob:

    Caught unhandled exception in 'sh' (pid = 47, pc = 0x02d05d65)
    - should not happen

  • commit fec3259c9f747c039f90e99570540114c8d81a14 upstream.

    Cache invalidation macros use cache line size to iterate over
    invalidated cache lines, assuming that all cache ways are invalidated by
    single instruction, but xtensa ISA recommends to not assume that for
    future compatibility:
    In some implementations all ways at index Addry-1..z are invalidated
    regardless of the specified way, but for future compatibility this
    behavior should not be assumed.

    Iterate over all cache ways in ___invalidate_icache_all and
    ___invalidate_dcache_all.

  • commit be75de25251f7cf3e399ca1f584716a95510d24a upstream.

    When building kernel for xtensa cores with big cache lines (e.g. 128
    bytes or more) __loop_cache_all and __loop_cache_page may generate
    assembly instructions with immediate fields that are too big. This
    results in the following build errors:

    arch/xtensa/mm/misc.S: Assembler messages:
    arch/xtensa/mm/misc.S:464: Error: operand 2 of 'diwbi' has invalid value '256'
    arch/xtensa/mm/misc.S:464: Error: operand 2 of 'diwbi' has invalid value '384'

    arch/xtensa/kernel/head.S:255: Error: operand 2 of 'diwb' has invalid value '384'

    Add parameter max_immed to these macros and use it to limit values of
    immediate operands. Extract common code of these macros into the new
    macro __loop_cache_unroll.

  • 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
    methodology of how this patch was researched.

  • 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
    services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
    of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

    otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

    Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
    license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
    Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
    Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding

  • Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
    makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

    By default all files without license information are under the default
    license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

    Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
    SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
    shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

    This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
    Philippe Ombredanne.

    How this work was done:

    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

  • Introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK semantics, which result in a VMA being empty
    in the child process after fork. This differs from MADV_DONTFORK in one
    important way.

    If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_WIPEONFORK, it will get
    zeroes. The address ranges are still valid, they are just empty.

    If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_DONTFORK, it will get a
    segmentation fault, since those address ranges are no longer valid in
    the child after fork.

    Since MADV_DONTFORK also seems to be used to allow very large programs
    to fork in systems with strict memory overcommit restrictions, changing
    the semantics of MADV_DONTFORK might break existing programs.

    MADV_WIPEONFORK only works on private, anonymous VMAs.

    The use case is libraries that store or cache information, and want to
    know that they need to regenerate it in the child process after fork.

    Examples of this would be:
    - systemd/pulseaudio API checks (fail after fork) (replacing a getpid
    check, which is too slow without a PID cache)
    - PKCS#11 API reinitialization check (mandated by specification)
    - glibc's upcoming PRNG (reseed after fork)
    - OpenSSL PRNG (reseed after fork)

    The security benefits of a forking server having a re-inialized PRNG in
    every child process are pretty obvious. However, due to libraries
    having all kinds of internal state, and programs getting compiled with
    many different versions of each library, it is unreasonable to expect
    calling programs to re-initialize everything manually after fork.

    A further complication is the proliferation of clone flags, programs
    bypassing glibc's functions to call clone directly, and programs calling
    unshare, causing the glibc pthread_atfork hook to not get called.

    It would be better to have the kernel take care of this automatically.

    The patch also adds MADV_KEEPONFORK, to undo the effects of a prior
    MADV_WIPEONFORK.

    This is similar to the OpenBSD minherit syscall with MAP_INHERIT_ZERO:

  • 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).

    entirely.

    The TCP conflict was a case of local variables in a function
    being removed from both net and net-next.

    In netvsc we had an assignment right next to where a missing

  • The send call ignores unknown flags. Legacy applications may already
    unwittingly pass MSG_ZEROCOPY. Continue to ignore this flag unless a
    socket opts in to zerocopy.

    Introduce socket option SO_ZEROCOPY to enable MSG_ZEROCOPY processing.
    Processes can also query this socket option to detect kernel support
    for the feature. Older kernels will return ENOPROTOOPT.

  • The arch uses a verbatim copy of the asm-generic version and does not
    add any own implementations to the header, so use asm-generic/fb.h

  • Since commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all headers under uapi
    directories"), all (and only) headers under uapi directories are
    exported, but asm-generic wrappers are still exceptions.

    To complete de-coupling the uapi from kernel headers, move generic-y
    of exported headers to uapi/asm/Kbuild.

    With this change, "make headers_install" will just need to parse
    uapi/asm/Kbuild to build up exported headers.

    Also, move "generic-y += kprobes.h" up in order to keep the entries
    sorted.

  • This adds the new getsockopt(2) option SO_PEERGROUPS on SOL_SOCKET to
    retrieve the auxiliary groups of the remote peer. It is designed to
    naturally extend SO_PEERCRED. That is, the underlying data is from the
    same credentials. Regarding its syntax, it is based on SO_PEERSEC. That
    is, if the provided buffer is too small, ERANGE is returned and @optlen
    is updated. Otherwise, the information is copied, @optlen is set to the
    actual size, and 0 is returned.

    While SO_PEERCRED (and thus `struct ucred') already returns the primary
    group, it lacks the auxiliary group vector. However, nearly all access
    controls (including kernel side VFS and SYSVIPC, but also user-space
    polkit, DBus, ...) consider the entire set of groups, rather than just
    the primary group. But this is currently not possible with pure
    SO_PEERCRED. Instead, user-space has to work around this and query the
    system database for the auxiliary groups of a UID retrieved via
    SO_PEERCRED.

    Unfortunately, there is no race-free way to query the auxiliary groups
    of the PID/UID retrieved via SO_PEERCRED. Hence, the current user-space
    solution is to use getgrouplist(3p), which itself falls back to NSS and
    whatever is configured in nsswitch.conf(3). This effectively checks
    which groups we *would* assign to the user if it logged in *now*. On
    normal systems it is as easy as reading /etc/group, but with NSS it can
    resort to quering network databases (eg., LDAP), using IPC or network
    communication.

    Long story short: Whenever we want to use auxiliary groups for access
    checks on IPC, we need further IPC to talk to the user/group databases,
    rather than just relying on SO_PEERCRED and the incoming socket. This
    is unfortunate, and might even result in dead-locks if the database
    query uses the same IPC as the original request.

    So far, those recursions / dead-locks have been avoided by using
    primitive IPC for all crucial NSS modules. However, we want to avoid
    re-inventing the wheel for each NSS module that might be involved in
    user/group queries. Hence, we would preferably make DBus (and other IPC
    that supports access-management based on groups) work without resorting
    to the user/group database. This new SO_PEERGROUPS ioctl would allow us
    to make dbus-daemon work without ever calling into NSS.

  • When opening the slave end of a PTY, it is not possible for userspace to
    safely ensure that /dev/pts/$num is actually a slave (in cases where the
    mount namespace in which devpts was mounted is controlled by an
    untrusted process). In addition, there are several unresolvable
    race conditions if userspace were to attempt to detect attacks through
    stat(2) and other similar methods [in addition it is not clear how
    userspace could detect attacks involving FUSE].

    Resolve this by providing an interface for userpace to safely open the
    "peer" end of a PTY file descriptor by using the dentry cached by
    devpts. Since it is not possible to have an open master PTY without
    having its slave exposed in /dev/pts this interface is safe. This
    interface currently does not provide a way to get the master pty (since
    it is not clear whether such an interface is safe or even useful).

  • Linux IRQ #0 is reserved for error reporting and may not be used.
    Increase NR_IRQS for one additional slot and increase
    irq_domain_add_legacy parameter first_irq value to 1, so that linux
    IRQ #0 is not associated with hardware IRQ #0 in legacy IRQ domains.
    Introduce macro XTENSA_PIC_LINUX_IRQ for static translation of xtensa
    PIC hardware IRQ # to linux IRQ #. Use this macro in XTFPGA platform
    data definitions.

    This fixes inability to use hardware IRQ #0 in configurations that don't
    use device tree and allows for non-identity mapping between linux IRQ #
    and hardware IRQ #.
