Pull #1 ARM updates from Russell King: "This one covers stuff which Arnd is waiting for me to push, as this is shared between both our trees and probably other trees elsewhere. Essentially, this contains: - AMBA primecell device initializer updates - mostly shrinking the size of the device declarations in platform code to something more reasonable. - Getting rid of the NO_IRQ crap from AMBA primecell stuff. - Nicolas' idle cleanups. This in combination with the restart cleanups from the last merge window results in a great many mach/system.h files being deleted."

Pull OpenRISC changes for 3.4 from Jonas Bonn: "This series for the OpenRISC architecture consists of mostly trivial fixups. The most interesting bits of the series are: * A fix to the timer code whereby the shortest trigger period is set to 100 cycles; previously, it was possible to set this to 1 cycle, but by the time the register was written, that time had already passed and the timer interrupt would not go off until the cycle counter had gone a full cycle. * Allowing a device tree binary to be passed in to the kernel from u-boot.

The namespace cleanup path leaks a dentry which holds a reference count on a network namespace. Keeping that network namespace from being freed when the last user goes away. Leaving things like vlan devices in the leaked network namespace. If you use ip netns add for much real work this problem becomes apparent pretty quickly. It light testing the problem hides because frequently you simply don't notice the leak. Use d_set_d_op() so that DCACHE_OP_* flags are set correctly. This issue exists back to 3.0. Acked-by:

On a typical 16 cpus machine, "cat /proc/stat" gives more than 4096 bytes, and is slow : # strace -T -o /tmp/STRACE cat /proc/stat | wc -c 5826 # grep "cpu " /tmp/STRACE read(0, "cpu 1949310 19 2144714 12117253"..., 32768) = 5826 <0.001504> Thats partly because show_stat() must be called twice since initial buffer size is too small (4096 bytes for less than 32 possible cpus) Fix this by : 1) Taking into account nr_irqs in the initial buffer sizing. 2) Using ksize() to allow better filling of initial buffer.

Since we no longer need the VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag, let's use the freed bit for 'VM_NODUMP' flag. The idea is is to add a new madvise() flag: MADV_DONTDUMP, which can be set by applications to specifically request memory regions which should not dump core. The specific application I have in mind is qemu: we can add a flag there that wouldn't dump all of guest memory when qemu dumps core. This flag might also be useful for security sensitive apps that want to absolutely make sure that parts of memory are not dumped. To clear the flag use: MADV_DODUMP.

The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

As Tetsuo Handa pointed out, request_module() can stress the system while the oom-killed caller sleeps in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. The task T uses "almost all" memory, then it does something which triggers request_module(). Say, it can simply call sys_socket(). This in turn needs more memory and leads to OOM. oom-killer correctly chooses T and kills it, but this can't help because it sleeps in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and after that oom-killer becomes "disabled" by the TIF_MEMDIE task T. Make __request_module() killable. The only necessary change is that call_modprobe() should kmalloc argv and module_name, they can't live in the stack if we use UMH_KILLABLE. This memory is freed via call_usermodehelper_freeinfo()->cleanup. Reported-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
Implement UMH_KILLABLE, should be used along with UMH_WAIT_EXEC/PROC. The caller must ensure that subprocess_info->path/etc can not go away until call_usermodehelper_freeinfo(). call_usermodehelper_exec(UMH_KILLABLE) does wait_for_completion_killable. If it fails, it uses xchg(&sub_info->complete, NULL) to serialize with umh_complete() which does the same xhcg() to access sub_info->complete. If call_usermodehelper_exec wins, it can safely return. umh_complete() should get NULL and call call_usermodehelper_freeinfo(). Otherwise we know that umh_complete() was already called, in this case call_usermodehelper_exec() falls back to wait_for_completion() which should succeed "very soon". Note: UMH_NO_WAIT == -1 but it obviously should not be used with UMH_KILLABLE. We delay the neccessary cleanup to simplify the back porting. Signed-off-by:

Change zap_pid_ns_processes() to use SEND_SIG_FORCED, it looks more clear compared to SEND_SIG_NOINFO which relies on from_ancestor_ns logic send_signal().

Change oom_kill_task() to use do_send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_FORCED) instead of force_sig(SIGKILL). With the recent changes we do not need force_ to kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks. And this is more correct. force_sig() can race with the exiting thread even if oom_kill_task() checks p->mm != NULL, while do_send_sig_info(group => true) kille the whole process. Signed-off-by:

-
Oleg Nesterov authored
force_sig_info() and friends have the special semantics for synchronous signals, this interface should not be used if the target is not current. And it needs the fixes, in particular the clearing of SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE is not exactly right. However there are callers which have to use force_ exactly because it clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE and thus it can kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks, although this is almost always is wrong by various reasons. With this patch SEND_SIG_FORCED ignores SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, like we do if the signal comes from the ancestor namespace. This makes the naming in prepare_signal() paths insane, fixed by the next cleanup. Note: this only affects SIGKILL/SIGSTOP, but this is enough for force_sig() abusers. Signed-off-by:

Matt Fleming authored
As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is pending in the shared queue. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0 ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again. Acked-by:

PTRACE_EVENT_foo and PTRACE_O_TRACEfoo used to match. New PTRACE_EVENT_STOP is the first event which has no corresponding PTRACE_O_TRACE option. If we will ever want to add another such option, its PTRACE_EVENT's value will collide with PTRACE_EVENT_STOP's value. This patch changes PTRACE_EVENT_STOP value to prevent this. While at it, added a comment - the one atop PTRACE_EVENT block, saying "Wait extended result codes for the above trace options", is not true for PTRACE_EVENT_STOP. Signed-off-by:

This can be used to close a few corner cases in strace where we get unwanted racy behavior after attach, but before we have a chance to set options (the notorious post-execve SIGTRAP comes to mind), and removes the need to track "did we set opts for this task" state in strace internals. While we are at it: Make it possible to extend SEIZE in the future with more functionality by passing non-zero 'addr' parameter. To that end, error out if 'addr' is non-zero. PTRACE_ATTACH did not (and still does not) have such check, and users (strace) do pass garbage there... let's avoid repeating this mistake with SEIZE. Set all task->ptrace bits in one operation - before this change, we were adding PT_SEIZED and PT_PTRACE_CAP with task->ptrace |= BIT ops. This was probably ok (not a bug), but let's be on a safer side. Changes since v2: use (unsigned long) casts instead of (long) ones, move PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL-related code to separate lines of code.

Exchange PT_TRACESYSGOOD and PT_PTRACE_CAP bit positions, which makes PT_option bits contiguous and therefore makes code in ptrace_setoptions() much simpler. Every PTRACE_O_TRACEevent is defined to (1 << PTRACE_EVENT_event) instead of using explicit numeric constants, to ensure we don't mess up relationship between bit positions and event ids. PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT was not particularly useful, PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT with value of PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT-1 is easier to use. PT_TRACE_MASK constant is nuked, the only its use is replaced by (PTRACE_O_MASK << PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT). Signed-off-by:

On ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, <opts>), we used to set those option bits which are known, and then fail with -EINVAL if there are some unknown bits in <opts>. This is inconsistent with typical error handling, which does not change any state if input is invalid. This patch changes PTRACE_SETOPTIONS behavior so that in this case, we return -EINVAL and don't change any bits in task->ptrace. It's very unlikely that there is userspace code in the wild which will be affected by this change: it should have the form ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPT) where PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPT is a constant unknown to the kernel. But kernel headers, naturally, don't contain any PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPTs, thus the only way userspace can use one if it defines one itself. I can't see why anyone would do such a thing deliberately.

ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC) sends SIGTRAP if PT_TRACE_EXEC is not set. This is because this SIGTRAP predates PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC option, we do not need/want this with PT_SEIZED which can set the options during attach. Suggested-by:

Another old/known problem. If the tracee is killed after it reports syscall_entry, it starts the syscall and debugger can't control this. This confuses the users and this creates the security problems for ptrace jailers. Change tracehook_report_syscall_entry() to return non-zero if killed, this instructs syscall_trace_enter() to abort the syscall. Reported-by:

The chip_desc table is suboptimal. Currently it requires an entry for every new chip type, even if it is empty. This has already been forgotten for the ds1388. Refactor the code, so new entries are only needed, when they chip type really needs a (non-empty) description. Also make the table visually more appealing. Signed-off-by:
