The Linux kernel security team has been accused of rejecting the idea of security embargoes. This is incorrect, and could dissuade people from reporting security issues to us under the false assumption that the issue would leak prematurely. Clarify the handling of embargoed information in our process documentation. Co-developed-by:

kbuild robot reports that since commit ce76d938 ("lib: Add memcat_p(): paste 2 pointer arrays together") the ia64/hp/sim/boot fails to link: > LD arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/bootloader > lib/string.o: In function `__memcat_p': > string.c:(.text+0x1f22): undefined reference to `__kmalloc' > string.c:(.text+0x1ff2): undefined reference to `__kmalloc' > make[1]: *** [arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/Makefile:37: arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/bootloader] Error 1 The reason is, the above commit, via __memcat_p(), adds a call to __kmalloc to string.o, which happens to be used in the bootloader, but there's no kmalloc or slab or anything. Since the linker would only pull in objects that contain referenced symbols, moving __memcat_p() to a different compilation unit solves the problem.

In _scif_prog_signal(), the boolean variable 'x100' is used to indicate whether the MIC Coprocessor is X100. If 'x100' is true, the status descriptor will be used to write the value to the destination. Otherwise, a DMA pool will be allocated for this purpose. Specifically, if the DMA pool is allocated successfully, two memory addresses will be returned. One is for the CPU and the other is for the device to access the DMA pool. The former is stored to the variable 'status' and the latter is stored to the variable 'src'. After the allocation, the address in 'src' is saved to 'status->src_dma_addr', which is actually in the DMA pool, and 'src' is then modified. Later on, if an error occurs, the execution flow will transfer to the label 'dma_fail', which will check 'x100' and free up the allocated DMA pool if 'x100' is false. The point here is that 'status->src_dma_addr' is used for freeing up the DMA pool. As mentioned before, 'status->src_dma_addr' is in the DMA pool. And thus, the device is able to modify this data. This can potentially cause failures when freeing up the DMA pool because of the modified device address. This patch avoids the above issue by using the variable 'src' (with necessary calculation) to free up the DMA pool. Signed-off-by:

Add new GSMI commands (GSMI_CMD_LOG_S0IX_SUSPEND = 0xa, GSMI_CMD_LOG_S0IX_RESUME = 0xb) that allow firmware to log any information during S0ix suspend/resume paths. Traditional ACPI suspend S3 involves BIOS both during the suspend and the resume paths. However, modern suspend type like S0ix does not involve firmware on either of the paths. This command gives the firmware an opportunity to log any required information about the suspend and resume operations e.g. wake sources. Additionally, this change adds a module parameter to allow platforms to specifically enable S0ix logging if required. This prevents any other platforms from unnecessarily making a GSMI call which could have any side-effects. Tested by verifying that wake sources are correctly logged in eventlog. Signed-off-by:

Instead of selecting EFI and EFI_VARS automatically when GSMI is enabled let that portion of the driver be conditionally compiled if EFI and EFI_VARS are enabled. This allows the rest of the driver (specifically event log) to be used if EFI_VARS is not enabled. To test: 1) verify that EFI_VARS is not automatically selected when CONFIG_GOOGLE_GSMI is enabled 2) verify that the kernel boots on Link and that GSMI event log is still available and functional 3) specifically boot the kernel on Alex to ensure it does not try to load efivars and that gsmi also does not load because it is not in the supported DMI table Signed-off-by:

The sysfs handler should return the number of bytes consumed, which in the case of a successful write is the entire buffer. Also fix a bug where param.data_len was being set to (count - (2 * sizeof(u32))) instead of just (count - sizeof(u32)). The latter is correct because we skip over the leading u32 which is our param.type, but we were also incorrectly subtracting sizeof(u32) on the line where we were actually setting param.data_len: param.data_len = count - sizeof(u32); This meant that for our example event.kernel_software_watchdog with total length 10 bytes, param.data_len was just 2 prior to this change. To test, successfully append an event to the log with gsmi sysfs.

I am one of the main engineers working on ashmem. I have been fixing bugs in the driver and have been involved in the memfd conversion discussions and sending patches about that. I also have an understanding of the binder driver and was involved with some of the development on finer grained locking. So I would like to be added to the MAINTAINERS file for android drivers for review and maintenance of ashmem and other Android drivers. Signed-off-by:
