Pull sched.h split-up from Ingo Molnar: "The point of these changes is to significantly reduce the header footprint, to speed up the kernel build and to have a cleaner header structure. After these changes the new 's typical preprocessed size goes down from a previous ~0.68 MB (~22K lines) to ~0.45 MB (~15K lines), which is around 40% faster to build on typical configs. Not much changed from the last version (-v2) posted three weeks ago: I eliminated quirks, backmerged fixes plus I rebased it to an upstream SHA1 from yesterday that includes most changes queued up in -next plus all sched.h changes that were pending from Andrew. I've re-tested the series both on x86 and on cross-arch defconfigs, and did a bisectability test at a number of random points. I tried to test as many build configurations as possible, but some build breakage is probably still left - but it should be mostly limited to architectures that have no cross-compiler binaries available on kernel.org, and non-default configurations" * 'WIP.sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (146 commits) sched/headers: Clean up sched/headers: Remove #ifdefs from sched/headers: Remove the include from sched/headers, hrtimer: Remove the include from sched/headers, x86/apic: Remove the header inclusion from sched/headers, timers: Remove the include from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/core: Remove unused prefetch_stack() sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove the 'init_pid_ns' prototype from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove the runqueue_is_locked() prototype sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove the include from sched/headers: Remove from ...

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

ipc/shm: Fix shmat mmap nil-page protection

2017-02-28T02:43:46Z

The issue is described here, with a nice testcase: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192931 The problem is that shmat() calls do_mmap_pgoff() with MAP_FIXED, and the address rounded down to 0. For the regular mmap case, the protection mentioned above is that the kernel gets to generate the address -- arch_get_unmapped_area() will always check for MAP_FIXED and return that address. So by the time we do security_mmap_addr(0) things get funky for shmat(). The testcase itself shows that while a regular user crashes, root will not have a problem attaching a nil-page. There are two possible fixes to this. The first, and which this patch does, is to simply allow root to crash as well -- this is also regular mmap behavior, ie when hacking up the testcase and adding mmap(... |MAP_FIXED). While this approach is the safer option, the second alternative is to ignore SHM_RND if the rounded address is 0, thus only having MAP_SHARED flags. This makes the behavior of shmat() identical to the mmap() case. The downside of this is obviously user visible, but does make sense in that it maintains semantics after the round-down wrt 0 address and mmap. Passes shm related ltp tests.
