Matthew Fortune &lt;Matthew.Fortune@imgtec.com&gt; reports:

The genex.S file appears to mix the case of a macro between its definition and
use. A cut down example of this is below. The macro __build_clear_none has
lower case 'build' but ends up being instantiated with upper case BUILD. Can
this be fixed on master. It has been picked up by the LLVM integrated assembler
which is currently case sensitive. We are likely to fix the assembler as well
but the code is currently inconsistent in the kernel.

 .macro __build_clear_none
 .endm

 .macro __BUILD_HANDLER exception handler clear verbose ext
 .align 5
 .globl handle_\exception; .align 2; .type handle_\exception, @function; .ent

Commit 4c21b8fd8f14 ("MIPS: seccomp: Handle indirect system calls (o32)")
fixed indirect system calls on O32 but it also introduced a bug for MIPS64
where it erroneously modified the v0 (syscall) register with the assumption
that the sycall offset hasn't been taken into consideration. This breaks
seccomp on MIPS64 n64 and n32 ABIs. We fix this by replacing the addition
with a move instruction.

Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
 "Another round of MIPS fixes for 4.2.  No area does particularly stand
  out but we have a two unpleasant ones:

   - Kernel ptes are marked with a global bit which allows the kernel to
     share kernel TLB entries between all processes.  For this to work
     both entries of an adjacent even/odd pte pair need to have the
     global bit set.  There has been a subtle race in setting the other
     entry's global bit since ~ 2000 but it take particularly
     pathological workloads that essentially do mostly vmalloc/vfree to
     trigger this.

     This pull request fixes the 64-bit case but leaves the case of 32
     bit CPUs with 64 bit ptes unsolved for now.  The unfixed cases
     affect hardware that is not available in the field yet.

   - Instruction emulation requires loading instructions from user space
     but the current fast but simplistic approach will fail on pages
     that are PROT_EXEC but !PROT_READ.  For this reason we temporarily
     do not permit this permission and will map pages with PROT_EXEC |
     PROT_READ.

  The remainder of this pull request is more or less across the field
  and the short log explains them well"

<title>signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_from_user32</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3c00cb5e68dc719f2fc73a33b1b230aadfcb1309</id>
<content type='text'>
This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a
positive si_code value.  The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields
in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently
between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_to_user.

copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits
of si_code.

This fixes the following information leaks:
x86:   8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
       itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32.
       (si_code = __SI_CHLD)
x86:   100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
       a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1)
sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a
       64-bit process. (si_code = any)

parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because
rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code
to a different process.  These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

addiu instructions.

<title>MIPS: show_stack: Fix stack trace with EVA</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1e77863a51698c4319587df34171bd823691a66a</id>
<content type='text'>
The show_stack() function deals exclusively with kernel contexts, but if
it gets called in user context with EVA enabled, show_stacktrace() will
attempt to access the stack using EVA accesses, which will either read
other user mapped data, or more likely cause an exception which will be
handled by __get_user().

This is easily reproduced using SysRq t to show all task states, which
results in the following stack dump output:

 Stack : (Bad stack address)

Fix by setting the current user access mode to kernel around the call to
show_stacktrace(). This causes __get_user() to use normal loads to read
the kernel stack.

Now we get the correct output, like this:

 Stack : 00000000 80168960 00000000 004a0000 00000000 00000000 8060016c 1f3abd0c

<content type='text'>
If a machine check exception is raised in kernel mode, user context,
with EVA enabled, then the do_mcheck handler will attempt to read the
code around the EPC using EVA load instructions, i.e. as if the reads
were from user mode. This will either read random user data if the
process has anything mapped at the same address, or it will cause an
exception which is handled by __get_user, resulting in this output:

 Code: (Bad address in epc)

Fix by setting the current user access mode to kernel if the saved
register context indicates the exception was taken in kernel mode. This
causes __get_user to use normal loads to read the kernel code.

<title>MIPS: SMP: Don't increment irq_count multiple times for call function IPIs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4ace6139bf23ab4f152ba4207fc10b76cc01d2a5</id>
<content type='text'>
The majority of SMP platforms handle their IPIs through do_IRQ()
which calls irq_{enter/exit}(). When a call function IPI is received,
smp_call_function_interrupt() is called which also calls
irq_{enter,exit}(), meaning irq_count is raised twice.

When tick broadcasting is used (which is implemented via a call
function IPI), this incorrectly causes all CPU idle time on the core
receiving broadcast ticks to be accounted as time spent servicing
IRQs, as account_process_tick() will account as such if irq_count is
greater than 1. This results in 100% CPU usage being reported on a
core which receives its ticks via broadcast.

This patch removes the SMP smp_call_function_interrupt() wrapper which
calls irq_{enter,exit}(). Platforms which handle their IPIs through
do_IRQ() now call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() directly to
avoid incrementing irq_count a second time. Platforms which don't
(loongson, sgi-ip27, sibyte) call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt()
wrapped in irq_{enter,exit}().

Commit eeb538950367 ("MIPS: unaligned: Prevent EVA instructions on kernel
unaligned accesses") renamed the Load* and Store* defines in unaligned.c
to _Load* and _Store* as part of its fix. One define was missed out which
causes big endian R6 kernels to fail to build.

p-&gt;thread.user_cpus_allowed is zero-initialized and is only filled on

To avoid adding overhead in the task initialization codepath, simply OR
the returned mask in sched_getaffinity with p-&gt;cpus_allowed.
