This patch unexports the low-level __get_user_pages() function. Recent refactoring of the get_user_pages* functions allow flags to be passed through get_user_pages() which eliminates the need for access to this function from its one user, kvm. We can see that the two calls to get_user_pages() which replace __get_user_pages() in kvm_main.c are equivalent by examining their call stacks: get_user_page_nowait(): get_user_pages(start, 1, flags, page, NULL) __get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, start, 1, page, NULL, NULL, false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH) __get_user_pages(current, current->mm, start, 1, flags | FOLL_TOUCH | FOLL_GET, page, NULL, NULL) check_user_page_hwpoison(): get_user_pages(addr, 1, flags, NULL, NULL) __get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, addr, 1, NULL, NULL, NULL, false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH) __get_user_pages(current, current->mm, addr, 1, flags | FOLL_TOUCH, NULL, NULL, NULL) Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lstoakes@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Now that Lorenzo cleaned things up and made the FOLL_FORCE users explicit, it becomes obvious how some of them don't really need FOLL_FORCE at all. So remove FOLL_FORCE from the proc code that reads the command line and arguments from user space. The mem_rw() function actually does want FOLL_FORCE, because gdd (and possibly many other debuggers) use it as a much more convenient version of PTRACE_PEEKDATA, but we should consider making the FOLL_FORCE part conditional on actually being a ptracer. This does not actually do that, just moves adds a comment to that effect and moves the gup_flags settings next to each other. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

From the beginning of the gpio-mpc8xxx.c, the "handle_level_irq" has being used to handle GPIO interrupts in the PowerPC/Layerscape platforms. But actually, almost all PowerPC/Layerscape platforms assert an interrupt request upon either a high-to-low change or any change on the state of the signal. So the "handle_level_irq" is not reasonable for PowerPC/Layerscape GPIO interrupt, it should be "handle_edge_irq". Otherwise the system may lost some interrupts from the PIN's state changes.

KVM/ARM updates for 4.9-rc2 - Handle faults generated by the page table walker as being writes - Map the BSS at EL2
-
Marc Zyngier authored
When used with a compiler that doesn't implement "asm goto" (such as the AArch64 port of GCC 4.8), jump labels generate a memory access to find out about the value of the key (instead of just patching the code). The key itself is likely to be stored in the BSS. This is perfectly fine, except that we don't map the BSS at HYP, leading to an exploding kernel at the first access. The obvious fix is simply to map the BSS there (which should have been done a long while ago, but hey...).

Will Deacon authored
The WnR bit in the HSR/ESR_EL2 indicates whether a data abort was generated by a read or a write instruction. For stage 2 data aborts generated by a stage 1 translation table walk (i.e. the actual page table access faults at EL2), the WnR bit therefore reports whether the instruction generating the walk was a load or a store, *not* whether the page table walker was reading or writing the entry. For page tables marked as read-only at stage 2 (e.g. due to KSM merging them with the tables from another guest), this could result in livelock, where a page table walk generated by a load instruction attempts to set the access flag in the stage 1 descriptor, but fails to trigger CoW in the host since only a read fault is reported. This patch modifies the arm64 kvm_vcpu_dabt_iswrite function to take into account stage 2 faults in stage 1 walks. Since DBM cannot be disabled at EL2 for CPUs that implement it, we assume that these faults are always causes by writes, avoiding the livelock situation at the expense of occasional, spurious CoWs. We could, in theory, do a bit better by checking the guest TCR configuration and inspecting the page table to see why the PTE faulted. However, I doubt this is measurable in practice, and the threat of livelock is real.

Lars-Peter Clausen authored
The GPIO_GET_LINEEVENT_IOCTL currently ignores unknown or undefined linehandle and lineevent flags. From a backwards and forwards compatibility viewpoint it is highly desirable to reject unknown flags though. On one hand an application that is using newer flags and is running on an older kernel has no way to detect if the new flags were handled correctly if they are silently discarded. On the other hand an application that (accidentally) passes undefined flags will run fine on an older kernel, but may break on a newer kernel when these flags get defined. Ensure that requests that have undefined flags set are rejected with an error, rather than silently discarding the undefined flags.

The GPIO_GET_LINEHANDLE_IOCTL currently ignores unknown or undefined linehandle flags. From a backwards and forwards compatibility viewpoint it is highly desirable to reject unknown flags though. On one hand an application that is using newer flags and is running on an older kernel has no way to detect if the new flags were handled correctly if they are silently discarded. On the other hand an application that (accidentally) passes undefined flags will run fine on an older kernel, but may break on a newer kernel when these flags get defined.

The GPIOHANDLE_GET_LINE_VALUES_IOCTL handler allocates a gpiohandle_data struct on the stack and then passes it to copy_to_user(). But depending on the number of requested line handles the struct is only partially initialized. This exposes the previous, potentially sensitive, stack content to the issuing userspace application. To avoid this make sure that the struct is fully initialized.
