The compiler is permitted to generate code which overwrites the parameters to a function. If those parameters include the only saved copy we have of userspace's registers, we're in trouble. Signed-off-by:

Bobby Bingham authored
When invoking syscall handlers on sh32, the saved userspace registers are at the top of the stack. This seems to have been intentional, as it is an easy way to pass r0, r1, ... to the handler as parameters 5, 6, ... It causes problems, however, because the compiler is allowed to generate code for a function which clobbers that function's own parameters. For example, gcc generates the following code for clone: <SyS_clone>: mov.l 8c020714 <SyS_clone+0xc>,r1 ! 8c020540 <do_fork> mov.l r7,@r15 mov r6,r7 jmp @r1 mov #0,r6 nop .word 0x0540 .word 0x8c02 The `mov.l r7,@r15` clobbers the saved value of r0 passed from userspace. For most system calls, this might not be a problem, because we'll be overwriting r0 with the return value anyway. But in the case of clone, copy_thread will need the original value of r0 if the CLONE_SETTLS flag was specified. The first patch in this series fixes this issue for system calls by pushing to the stack and extra copy of r0-r2 before invoking the handler. We discard this copy before restoring the userspace registers, so it is not a problem if they are clobbered. Exception handlers also receive the userspace register values in a similar manner, and may hit the same problem. The second patch removes the do_fpu_error handler, which looks susceptible to this problem and which, as far as I can tell, has not been used in some time. The third patch addresses other exception handlers. This patch (of 3): The userspace registers are stored at the top of the stack when the syscall handler is invoked, which allows r0-r2 to act as parameters 5-7. Parameters passed on the stack may be clobbered by the syscall handler. The solution is to push an extra copy of the registers which might be used as syscall parameters to the stack, so that the authoritative set of saved register values does not get clobbered. A few system call handlers are also updated to get the userspace registers using current_pt_regs() instead of from the stack. Signed-off-by: -

Recent increased use of typeof() throughout the tree resulted in a number of symbols (25 in a typical distro config of ours) not getting a proper CRC calculated for them anymore, due to the parser in genksyms not coping with several of these uses (interestingly in the majority of [if not all] cases the problem is due to the use of typeof() in code preceding a certain export, not in the declaration/definition of the exported function/object itself; I wasn't able to find a way to address this more general parser shortcoming). The use of parameter_declaration is a little more relaxed than would be ideal (permitting not just a bare type specification, but also one with identifier), but since the same code is being passed through an actual compiler, there's no apparent risk of allowing through any broken code. Otoh using parameter_declaration instead of the ad hoc "decl_specifier_seq '*'" / "decl_specifier_seq" pair allows all types to be handled rather than just plain ones and pointers to plain ones.

Move code moving event structure to access_list from copy_event_to_user() to fanotify_read() where it is more logical (so that we can immediately see in the main loop that we either move the event to a different list or free it). Also move special error handling for permission events from copy_event_to_user() to the main loop to have it in one place with error handling for normal events. This makes copy_event_to_user() really only copy the event to user without any side effects. Signed-off-by:

Swap the error / "read ok" branches in the main loop of fanotify_read(). We will grow the "read ok" part in the next patch and this makes the indentation easier. Also it is more common to have error conditions inside an 'if' instead of the fast path. Signed-off-by:

Jan Kara authored
Currently, fanotify creates new structure to track the fact that permission event has been reported to userspace and someone is waiting for a response to it. As event structures are now completely in the hands of each notification framework, we can use the event structure for this tracking instead of allocating a new structure. Since this makes the event structures for normal events and permission events even more different and the structures have different lifetime rules, we split them into two separate structures (where permission event structure contains the structure for a normal event). This makes normal events 8 bytes smaller and the code a tad bit cleaner. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Signed-off-by:

Jan Kara authored
The prepare_for_access_response() function checks whether group->fanotify_data.bypass_perm is set. However this test can never be true because prepare_for_access_response() is called only from fanotify_read() which means fanotify group is alive with an active fd while bypass_perm is set from fanotify_release() when all file descriptors pointing to the group are closed and the group is going away.

In the presence of memoryless nodes, numa_node_id() will return the current CPU's NUMA node, but that may not be where we expect to allocate from memory from. Instead, we should rely on the fallback code in the memory allocator itself, by using NUMA_NO_NODE. Also, when calling kthread_create_on_node(), use the nearest node with memory to the cpu in question, rather than the node it is running on. Signed-off-by:

After commit 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue") when device is removed while we are writing to it we crash in bdi_writeback_workfn() -> set_worker_desc() because bdi->dev is NULL. This can happen because even though bdi_unregister() cancels all pending flushing work, nothing really prevents new ones from being queued from balance_dirty_pages() or other places. Fix the problem by clearing BDI_registered bit in bdi_unregister() and checking it before scheduling of any flushing work. Fixes: 839a8e86Reviewed-by:

bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() used the mod_delayed_work() function to schedule work to writeback dirty inodes. The problem with this is that it can delay work that is scheduled for immediate execution, such as the work from sync_inodes_sb(). This can happen since mod_delayed_work() can now steal work from a work_queue. This fixes the problem by using queue_delayed_work() instead. This is a regression caused by commit 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue"). The reason that this causes a problem is that laptop-mode will change the delay, dirty_writeback_centisecs, to 60000 (10 minutes) by default. In the case that bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() races with sync_inodes_sb(), sync will be stopped for 10 minutes and trigger a hung task. Even if dirty_writeback_centisecs is not long enough to cause a hung task, we still don't want to delay sync for that long. We fix the problem by using queue_delayed_work() when we want to schedule writeback sometime in future. This function doesn't change the timer if it is already armed. For the same reason, we also change bdi_writeback_workfn() to immediately queue the work again in the case that the work_list is not empty. The same problem can happen if the sync work is run on the rescue worker. [jack@suse.cz: update changelog, add comment, use bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed()] Signed-off-by:

Pull powerpc non-virtualized cpuidle from Ben Herrenschmidt: "This is the branch I mentioned in my other pull request which contains our improved cpuidle support for the "powernv" platform (non-virtualized). It adds support for the "fast sleep" feature of the processor which provides higher power savings than our usual "nap" mode but at the cost of losing the timers while asleep, and thus exploits the new timer broadcast framework to work around that limitation. It's based on a tip timer tree that you seem to have already merged" * 'powernv-cpuidle' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: cpuidle/powernv: Parse device tree to setup idle states cpuidle/powernv: Add "Fast-Sleep" CPU idle state powerpc/powernv: Add OPAL call to resync timebase on wakeup powerpc/powernv: Add context management for Fast Sleep powerpc: Split timer_interrupt() into timer handling and interrupt handling routines powerpc: Implement tick broadcast IPI as a fixed IPI message powerpc: Free up the slot of PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE IPI message

Pull main powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt: "This time around, the powerpc merges are going to be a little bit more complicated than usual. This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge window. I will describe it a bit more further down. There is some additional cpuidle driver work, however I haven't included it in this tree as it depends on some work in tip/timer-core which Thomas accidentally forgot to put in a topic branch. Since I didn't want to carry all of that tip timer stuff in powerpc -next, I setup a separate branch on top of Thomas tree with just that cpuidle driver in it, and Stephen has been carrying that in next separately for a while now. I'll send a separate pull request for it. Additionally, two new pieces in this tree add users for a sysfs API that Tejun and Greg have been deprecating in drivers-core-next. Thankfully Greg reverted the patch that removes the old API so this merge can happen cleanly, but once merged, I will send a patch adjusting our new code to the new API so that Greg can send you the removal patch. Now as for the content of this branch, we have a lot of perf work for power8 new counters including support for our new "nest" counters (also called 24x7) under pHyp (not natively yet). We have new functionality when running under the OPAL firmware (non-virtualized or KVM host), such as access to the firmware error logs and service processor dumps, system parameters and sensors, along with a hwmon driver for the latter. There's also a bunch of bug fixes accross the board, some LE fixes, and a nice set of selftests for validating our various types of copy loops. On the Freescale side, we see mostly new chip/board revisions, some clock updates, better support for machine checks and debug exceptions, etc..." * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: (70 commits) powerpc/book3s: Fix CFAR clobbering issue in machine check handler. powerpc/compat: 32-bit little endian machine name is ppcle, not ppc powerpc/le: Big endian arguments for ppc_rtas() powerpc: Use default set of netfilter modules (CONFIG_NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n) powerpc/defconfigs: Enable THP in pseries defconfig powerpc/mm: Make sure a local_irq_disable prevent a parallel THP split powerpc: Rate-limit users spamming kernel log buffer powerpc/perf: Fix handling of L3 events with bank == 1 powerpc/perf/hv_{gpci, 24x7}: Add documentation of device attributes powerpc/perf: Add kconfig option for hypervisor provided counters powerpc/perf: Add support for the hv 24x7 interface powerpc/perf: Add support for the hv gpci (get performance counter info) interface powerpc/perf: Add macros for defining event fields & formats powerpc/perf: Add a shared interface to get gpci version and capabilities powerpc/perf: Add 24x7 interface headers powerpc/perf: Add hv_gpci interface header powerpc: Add hvcalls for 24x7 and gpci (Get Performance Counter Info) sysfs: create bin_attributes under the requested group powerpc/perf: Enable BHRB access for EBB events powerpc/perf: Add BHRB constraint and IFM MMCRA handling for EBB ...

Pull compat time conversion changes from Peter Anvin: "Despite the branch name this is really neither an x86 nor an x32-specific patchset, although it the implementation of the discussions that followed the x32 security hole a few months ago. This removes get/put_compat_timespec/val() and replaces them with compat_get/put_timespec/val() which are savvy as to the current status of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME. It removes several unused and/or incorrect/misleading functions (like compat_put_timeval_convert which doesn't in fact do any conversion) and also replaces several open-coded implementations what is now called compat_convert_timespec() with that function" * 'x86-x32-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: compat: Fix sparse address space warnings compat: Get rid of (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec)

Pull x86 vdso changes from Peter Anvin: "This is the revamp of the 32-bit vdso and the associated cleanups. This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have in the 64-bit vdso. Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come. This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty. Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release. This is not the end of the vdso cleanups. Stefani and Andy have agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this cycle. An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed. It wasn't before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS or the bootloader. Since the VVAR page is accessible to user space this had the potential of information leaks" * 'x86-vdso-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) x86, vdso: Fix the symbol versions on the 32-bit vDSO x86, vdso, build: Don't rebuild 32-bit vdsos on every make x86, vdso: Actually discard the .discard sections x86, vdso: Fix size of get_unmapped_area() x86, vdso: Finish removing VDSO32_PRELINK x86, vdso: Move more vdso definitions into vdso.h x86: Load the 32-bit vdso in place, just like the 64-bit vdsos x86, vdso32: handle 32 bit vDSO larger one page x86, vdso32: Disable stack protector, adjust optimizations x86, vdso: Zero-pad the VVAR page x86, vdso: Add 32 bit VDSO time support for 64 bit kernel x86, vdso: Add 32 bit VDSO time support for 32 bit kernel x86, vdso: Patch alternatives in the 32-bit VDSO x86, vdso: Introduce VVAR marco for vdso32 x86, vdso: Cleanup __vdso_gettimeofday() x86, vdso: Replace VVAR(vsyscall_gtod_data) by gtod macro x86, vdso: __vdso_clock_gettime() cleanup x86, vdso: Revamp vclock_gettime.c mm: Add new func _install_special_mapping() to mmap.c x86, vdso: Make vsyscall_gtod_data handling x86 generic ...
