mmap locking API: use coccinelle to convert mmap_sem rwsem call sites

2020-06-09T16:39:14Z

This change converts the existing mmap_sem rwsem calls to use the new mmap locking API instead.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman: "A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current task. The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal. Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down. This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends making this kind of error almost impossible in the future" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (27 commits) signal/x86: Move tsk inside of CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE in do_sigbus signal: Remove the signal number and task parameters from force_sig_info signal: Factor force_sig_info_to_task out of force_sig_info signal: Generate the siginfo in force_sig signal: Move the computation of force into send_signal and correct it. signal: Properly set TRACE_SIGNAL_LOSE_INFO in __send_signal signal: Remove the task parameter from force_sig_fault signal: Use force_sig_fault_to_task for the two calls that don't deliver to current signal: Explicitly call force_sig_fault on current signal/unicore32: Remove tsk parameter from __do_user_fault signal/arm: Remove tsk parameter from __do_user_fault signal/arm: Remove tsk parameter from ptrace_break signal/nds32: Remove tsk parameter from send_sigtrap signal/riscv: Remove tsk parameter from do_trap signal/sh: Remove tsk parameter from force_sig_info_fault signal/um: Remove task parameter from send_sigtrap signal/x86: Remove task parameter from send_sigtrap signal: Remove task parameter from force_sig_mceerr signal: Remove task parameter from force_sig signal: Remove task parameter from force_sigsegv ...

signal: Remove task parameter from force_sig

2019-05-27T14:36:28Z

All of the remaining callers pass current into force_sig so remove the task parameter to make this obvious and to make misuse more difficult in the future. This also makes it clear force_sig passes current into force_sig_info. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

signal: Remove task parameter from force_sigsegv

2019-05-27T14:36:28Z

The function force_sigsegv is always called on the current task so passing in current is redundant and not passing in current makes this fact obvious. This also makes it clear force_sigsegv always calls force_sig on the current task. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

2019-01-04T02:57:57Z

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ARC: clone syscall to setp r25 as thread pointer

2018-10-05T21:33:29Z

Per ARC TLS ABI, r25 is designated TP (thread pointer register). However so far kernel didn't do any special treatment, like setting up usermode r25, even for CLONE_SETTLS. We instead relied on libc runtime to do this, in say clone libc wrapper [1]. This was deliberate to keep kernel ABI agnostic (userspace could potentially change TP, specially for different ARC ISA say ARCompact vs. ARCv2 with different spare registers etc) However userspace setting up r25, after clone syscall opens a race, if child is not scheduled and gets a signal instead. It starts off in userspace not in clone but in a signal handler and anything TP sepcific there such as pthread_self() fails which showed up with uClibc testsuite nptl/tst-kill6 [2] Fix this by having kernel populate r25 to TP value. So this locks in ABI, but it was not going to change anyways, and fwiw is same for both ARCompact (arc700 core) and ARCvs (HS3x cores) [1] https://cgit.uclibc-ng.org/cgi/cgit/uclibc-ng.git/tree/libc/sysdeps/linux/arc/clone.S [2] https://github.com/wbx-github/uclibc-ng-test/blob/master/test/nptl/tst-kill6.c Fixes: ARC STAR 9001378481 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Nikita Sobolev Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: Improve cmpxchg syscall implementation

2018-07-09T18:22:05Z

This is used in configs lacking hardware atomics to emulate atomic r-m-w for user space, implemented by disabling preemption in kernel. However there are issues in current implementation: 1. Process not terminated if invalid user pointer passed: i.e. __get_user() failed. 2. The reason for this patch was __put_user() failure not being handled either, specifically for the COW break scenario. The zero page is initially wired up and read from __get_user() succeeds. A subsequent write by __put_user() induces a Protection Violation, but COW can't finish as Linux page fault handler is disabled due to preempt disable. And what's worse is we silently return the stale value to user space. Fix this specific case by re-enabling preemption and explicitly fixing up the fault and retrying the whole sequence over.
