096fe9e KEYS: Fix handling of stored error in a negatively instantiated user key If a user key gets negatively instantiated, an error code is cached in the payload area. A negatively instantiated key may be then be positively instantiated by updating it with valid data. However, the ->update key type method must be aware that the error code may be there. The following may be used to trigger the bug in the user key type: keyctl request2 user user "" @u keyctl add user user "a" @u which manifests itself as: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000000ffffff8a IP: [<ffffffff810a376f>] __call_rcu.constprop.76+0x1f/0x280 kernel/rcu/tree.c:3046 PGD 7cc30067 PUD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 2644 Comm: a.out Not tainted 4.3.0+ #49 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 task: ffff88003ddea700 ti: ffff88003dd88000 task.ti: ffff88003dd88000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810a376f>] [<ffffffff810a376f>] __call_rcu.constprop.76+0x1f/0x280 [<ffffffff810a376f>] __call_rcu.constprop.76+0x1f/0x280 kernel/rcu/tree.c:3046 RSP: 0018:ffff88003dd8bdb0 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 00000000ffffff82 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: ffffffff81e3fe40 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 00000000ffffff82 RBP: ffff88003dd8bde0 R08: ffff88007d2d2da0 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffff88003e8073c0 R12: 00000000ffffff82 R13: ffff88003dd8be68 R14: ffff88007d027600 R15: ffff88003ddea700 FS: 0000000000b92880(0063) GS:ffff88007fd00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00000000ffffff8a CR3: 000000007cc5f000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 Stack: ffff88003dd8bdf0 ffffffff81160a8a 0000000000000000 00000000ffffff82 ffff88003dd8be68 ffff88007d027600 ffff88003dd8bdf0 ffffffff810a39e5 ffff88003dd8be20 ffffffff812a31ab ffff88007d027600 ffff88007d027620 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810a39e5>] kfree_call_rcu+0x15/0x20 kernel/rcu/tree.c:3136 [<ffffffff812a31ab>] user_update+0x8b/0xb0 security/keys/user_defined.c:129 [< inline >] __key_update security/keys/key.c:730 [<ffffffff8129e5c1>] key_create_or_update+0x291/0x440 security/keys/key.c:908 [< inline >] SYSC_add_key security/keys/keyctl.c:125 [<ffffffff8129fc21>] SyS_add_key+0x101/0x1e0 security/keys/keyctl.c:60 [<ffffffff8185f617>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x6a arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:185 Note the error code (-ENOKEY) in EDX.

c5c9f25 NVMe: default to 4k device page size We received a bug report recently when DDW (64-bit direct DMA on Power) is not enabled for NVMe devices. In that case, we fall back to 32-bit DMA via the IOMMU, which is always done via 4K TCEs (Translation Control Entries). The NVMe device driver, though, assumes that the DMA alignment for the PRP entries will match the device's page size, and that the DMA aligment matches the kernel's page aligment. On Power, the the IOMMU page size, as mentioned above, can be 4K, while the device can have a page size of 8K, while the kernel has a page size of 64K. This eventually trips the BUG_ON in nvme_setup_prps(), as we have a 'dma_len' that is a multiple of 4K but not 8K (e.g., 0xF000). In this particular case of page sizes, we clearly want to use the IOMMU's page size in the driver. And generally, the NVMe driver in this function should be using the IOMMU's page size for the default device page size, rather than the kernel's page size. There is not currently an API to obtain the IOMMU's page size across all architectures and in the interest of a stop-gap fix to this functional issue, default the NVMe device page size to 4K, with the intent of adding such an API and implementation across all architectures in the next merge window. With the functionally equivalent v3 of this patch, our hardware test exerciser survives when using 32-bit DMA; without the patch, the kernel will BUG within a few minutes.

f3bef67 selinux: fix bug in conditional rules handling commit fa1aa143ac4a ("selinux: extended permissions for ioctls") introduced a bug into the handling of conditional rules, skipping the processing entirely when the caller does not provide an extended permissions (xperms) structure. Access checks from userspace using /sys/fs/selinux/access do not include such a structure since that interface does not presently expose extended permission information. As a result, conditional rules were being ignored entirely on userspace access requests, producing denials when access was allowed by conditional rules in the policy. Fix the bug by only skipping computation of extended permissions in this situation, not the entire conditional rules processing.

We shouldn't be doing this without considering the virtual interrupt's active state, because the architecture requires that when an LR has the HW bit set and the pending or active bits set, then the physical interrupt must also have the corresponding bits set.

c0f0963 arm64: KVM: Fix AArch32 to AArch64 register mapping When running a 32bit guest under a 64bit hypervisor, the ARMv8 architecture defines a mapping of the 32bit registers in the 64bit space. This includes banked registers that are being demultiplexed over the 64bit ones. On exceptions caused by an operation involving a 32bit register, the HW exposes the register number in the ESR_EL2 register. It was so far understood that SW had to distinguish between AArch32 and AArch64 accesses (based on the current AArch32 mode and register number). It turns out that I misinterpreted the ARM ARM, and the clue is in D1.20.1: "For some exceptions, the exception syndrome given in the ESR_ELx identifies one or more register numbers from the issued instruction that generated the exception. Where the exception is taken from an Exception level using AArch32 these register numbers give the AArch64 view of the register." Which means that the HW is already giving us the translated version, and that we shouldn't try to interpret it at all (for example, doing an MMIO operation from the IRQ mode using the LR register leads to very unexpected behaviours). The fix is thus not to perform a call to vcpu_reg32() at all from vcpu_reg(), and use whatever register number is supplied directly. The only case we need to find out about the mapping is when we actively generate a register access, which only occurs when injecting a fault in a guest.

e6fab54 ARM/arm64: KVM: test properly for a PTE's uncachedness The open coded tests for checking whether a PTE maps a page as uncached use a flawed '(pte_val(xxx) & CONST) != CONST' pattern, which is not guaranteed to work since the type of a mapping is not a set of mutually exclusive bits For HYP mappings, the type is an index into the MAIR table (i.e, the index itself does not contain any information whatsoever about the type of the mapping), and for stage-2 mappings it is a bit field where normal memory and device types are defined as follows: #define MT_S2_NORMAL 0xf #define MT_S2_DEVICE_nGnRE 0x1 I.e., masking *and* comparing with the latter matches on the former, and we have been getting lucky merely because the S2 device mappings also have the PTE_UXN bit set, or we would misidentify memory mappings as device mappings. Since the unmap_range() code path (which contains one instance of the flawed test) is used both for HYP mappings and stage-2 mappings, and considering the difference between the two, it is non-trivial to fix this by rewriting the tests in place, as it would involve passing down the type of mapping through all the functions. However, since HYP mappings and stage-2 mappings both deal with host physical addresses, we can simply check whether the mapping is backed by memory that is managed by the host kernel, and only perform the D-cache maintenance if this is the case.

38b7631 nfs4: limit callback decoding to received bytes A truncated cb_compound request will cause the client to decode null or data from a previous callback for nfs4.1 backchannel case, or uninitialized data for the nfs4.0 case. This is because the path through svc_process_common() advances the request's iov_base and decrements iov_len without adjusting the overall xdr_buf's len field. That causes xdr_init_decode() to set up the xdr_stream with an incorrect length in nfs4_callback_compound(). Fixing this for the nfs4.1 backchannel case first requires setting the correct iov_len and page_len based on the length of received data in the same manner as the nfs4.0 case. Then the request's xdr_buf length can be adjusted for both cases based upon the remaining iov_len and page_len.

c725bfc vfs: Make sendfile(2) killable even better Commit 296291cdd162 (mm: make sendfile(2) killable) fixed an issue where sendfile(2) was doing a lot of tiny writes into a filesystem and thus was unkillable for a long time. However sendfile(2) can be (mis)used to issue lots of writes into arbitrary file descriptor such as evenfd or similar special file descriptors which never hit the standard filesystem write path and thus are still unkillable. E.g. the following example from Dmitry burns CPU for ~16s on my test system without possibility to be killed: int r1 = eventfd(0, 0); int r2 = memfd_create("", 0); unsigned long n = 1<<30; fallocate(r2, 0, 0, n); sendfile(r1, r2, 0, n); There are actually quite a few tests for pending signals in sendfile code however we data to write is always available none of them seems to trigger. So fix the problem by adding a test for pending signal into splice_from_pipe_next() also before the loop waiting for pipe buffers to be available. This should fix all the lockup issues with sendfile of the do-ton-of-tiny-writes nature.

0fcb04d dm thin: fix regression in advertised discard limits When establishing a thin device's discard limits we cannot rely on the underlying thin-pool device's discard capabilities (which are inherited from the thin-pool's underlying data device) given that DM thin devices must provide discard support even when the thin-pool's underlying data device doesn't support discards. Users were exposed to this thin device discard limits regression if their thin-pool's underlying data device does _not_ support discards. This regression caused all upper-layers that called the blkdev_issue_discard() interface to not be able to issue discards to thin devices (because discard_granularity was 0). This regression wasn't caught earlier because the device-mapper-test-suite's extensive 'thin-provisioning' discard tests are only ever performed against thin-pool's with data devices that support discards. Fix is to have thin_io_hints() test the pool's 'discard_enabled' feature rather than inferring whether or not a thin device's discard support should be enabled by looking at the thin-pool's discard_granularity.

Currently hwqueue driver configures linking RAM(s) to be used cooperatively by the QMs (shared mode). Therefore if both queue managers are used then both must be configured with exactly the same linking RAM info (base address and size) independent of the number of linking RAM(s) specified in the device tree. For proper operation only one linking RAM is required and in most cases this can be internal one as long as it is able to handle the number of descriptors used in the system. Current driver code however skips configuration of second queue manager if second linking RAM is not specified. If the configuration for the QM2 is missing there will be a crash when it tries to push/pop descriptors from its queues.

Routines written in hand assembler lack dwarf info (as we don't support assembler CFI pseudo-ops yet) fail the unwinder binary lookup, hit linear search, failing nevertheless in the end. However the linear search is pointless as binary lookup tables are created from it in first place. It is impossible to have binary lookup fail while succeed the linear search. It is pure waste of cycles thus removed by this patch. This manifested as RCU stalls / NMI watchdog splat when running hackbench under perf with callgraph profiling. The triggering condition was perf counter overflowing in routine lacking dwarf info (like memset) leading to patheic 3 million cycle unwinder slow path and by the time it returned new interrupts were already pending (Timer, IPI) and taken rightaway. The original memset didn't make forward progress, system kept accruing more interrupts and more unwinder delayes in a vicious feedback loop, ultimately triggering the NMI diagnostic.

7f821fc powerpc/tm: Check for already reclaimed tasks Currently we can hit a scenario where we'll tm_reclaim() twice. This results in a TM bad thing exception because the second reclaim occurs when not in suspend mode. The scenario in which this can happen is the following. We attempt to deliver a signal to userspace. To do this we need obtain the stack pointer to write the signal context. To get this stack pointer we must tm_reclaim() in case we need to use the checkpointed stack pointer (see get_tm_stackpointer()). Normally we'd then return directly to userspace to deliver the signal without going through __switch_to(). Unfortunatley, if at this point we get an error (such as a bad userspace stack pointer), we need to exit the process. The exit will result in a __switch_to(). __switch_to() will attempt to save the process state which results in another tm_reclaim(). This tm_reclaim() now causes a TM Bad Thing exception as this state has already been saved and the processor is no longer in TM suspend mode. Whee! This patch checks the state of the MSR to ensure we are TM suspended before we attempt the tm_reclaim(). If we've already saved the state away, we should no longer be in TM suspend mode. This has the additional advantage of checking for a potential TM Bad Thing exception. Found using syscall fuzzer.

865762a slab/slub: adjust kmem_cache_alloc_bulk API Adjust kmem_cache_alloc_bulk API before we have any real users. Adjust API to return type 'int' instead of previously type 'bool'. This is done to allow future extension of the bulk alloc API. A future extension could be to allow SLUB to stop at a page boundary, when specified by a flag, and then return the number of objects. The advantage of this approach, would make it easier to make bulk alloc run without local IRQs disabled. With an approach of cmpxchg "stealing" the entire c->freelist or page->freelist. To avoid overshooting we would stop processing at a slab-page boundary. Else we always end up returning some objects at the cost of another cmpxchg. To keep compatible with future users of this API linking against an older kernel when using the new flag, we need to return the number of allocated objects with this API change.

0337451 slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk Initial implementation missed support for kmem cgroup support in kmem_cache_free_bulk() call, add this. If CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not enabled, the compiler should be smart enough to not add any asm code. Incoming bulk free objects can belong to different kmem cgroups, and object free call can happen at a later point outside memcg context. Thus, we need to keep the orig kmem_cache, to correctly verify if a memcg object match against its "root_cache" (s->memcg_params.root_cache).

03ec0ed slub: fix kmem cgroup bug in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk The call slab_pre_alloc_hook() interacts with kmemgc and is not allowed to be called several times inside the bulk alloc for loop, due to the call to memcg_kmem_get_cache(). This would result in hitting the VM_BUG_ON in __memcg_kmem_get_cache. As suggested by Vladimir Davydov, change slab_post_alloc_hook() to be able to handle an array of objects. A subtle detail is, loop iterator "i" in slab_post_alloc_hook() must have same type (size_t) as size argument. This helps the compiler to easier realize that it can remove the loop, when all debug statements inside loop evaluates to nothing. Note, this is only an issue because the kernel is compiled with GCC option: -fno-strict-overflow In slab_alloc_node() the compiler inlines and optimizes the invocation of slab_post_alloc_hook(s, flags, 1, &object) by removing the loop and access object directly.

d0ecd89 slub: optimize bulk slowpath free by detached freelist This change focus on improving the speed of object freeing in the "slowpath" of kmem_cache_free_bulk. The calls slab_free (fastpath) and __slab_free (slowpath) have been extended with support for bulk free, which amortize the overhead of the (locked) cmpxchg_double. To use the new bulking feature, we build what I call a detached freelist. The detached freelist takes advantage of three properties: 1) the free function call owns the object that is about to be freed, thus writing into this memory is synchronization-free. 2) many freelist's can co-exist side-by-side in the same slab-page each with a separate head pointer. 3) it is the visibility of the head pointer that needs synchronization. Given these properties, the brilliant part is that the detached freelist can be constructed without any need for synchronization. The freelist is constructed directly in the page objects, without any synchronization needed. The detached freelist is allocated on the stack of the function call kmem_cache_free_bulk. Thus, the freelist head pointer is not visible to other CPUs. All objects in a SLUB freelist must belong to the same slab-page. Thus, constructing the detached freelist is about matching objects that belong to the same slab-page. The bulk free array is scanned is a progressive manor with a limited look-ahead facility.

8108465 slub: support for bulk free with SLUB freelists Make it possible to free a freelist with several objects by adjusting API of slab_free() and __slab_free() to have head, tail and an objects counter (cnt). Tail being NULL indicate single object free of head object. This allow compiler inline constant propagation in slab_free() and slab_free_freelist_hook() to avoid adding any overhead in case of single object free. This allows a freelist with several objects (all within the same slab-page) to be free'ed using a single locked cmpxchg_double in __slab_free() and with an unlocked cmpxchg_double in slab_free(). Object debugging on the free path is also extended to handle these freelists. When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled it will also detect if objects don't belong to the same slab-page. These changes are needed for the next patch to bulk free the detached freelists it introduces and constructs. Micro benchmarking showed no performance reduction due to this change, when debugging is turned off (compiled with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG).

736d216 parisc: Add Huge Page and HUGETLBFS support This patch adds huge page support to allow userspace to allocate huge pages and to use hugetlbfs filesystem on 32- and 64-bit Linux kernels. A later patch will add kernel support to map kernel text and data on huge pages. The only requirement is, that the kernel needs to be compiled for a PA8X00 CPU (PA2.0 architecture). Older PA1.X CPUs do not support variable page sizes. 64bit Kernels are compiled for PA2.0 by default. Technically on parisc multiple physical huge pages may be needed to emulate standard 2MB huge pages. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> 22 November 2015, 11:23:10 UTC

332b42e parisc: Increase initial kernel mapping to 32MB on 64bit kernel For the 64bit kernel the initially 16 MB kernel memory might become too small if you build a kernel with many modules built-in and with kernel text and data areas mapped on huge pages. This patch increases the initial mapping to 32MB for 64bit kernels and keeps 16MB for 32bit kernels. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> 22 November 2015, 11:22:53 UTC
4182d0c parisc: Initialize the fault vector earlier in the boot process. A fault vector on parisc needs to be 2K aligned. Furthermore the checksum of the fault vector needs to sum up to 0 which is being calculated and written at runtime. Up to now we aligned both PA20 and PA11 fault vectors on the same 4K page in order to easily write the checksum after having mapped the kernel read-only (by mapping this page only as read-write). But when we want to map the kernel text and data on huge pages this makes things harder. So, simplify it by aligning both fault vectors on 2K boundries and write the checksum before we map the page read-only. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> 22 November 2015, 11:22:43 UTC
1f25ad2 parisc: Add defines for Huge page support Huge pages on parisc will have the same size as one pmd table, which is on a 64bit kernel 2MB on a kernel with 4K kernel page sizes, and on a 32bit kernel 4MB when used with 4K kernel pages. Since parisc does not physically supports 2MB huge page sizes, emulate it with two consecutive 1MB page sizes instead. Keeping the same huge page size as one pmd will allow us to add transparent huge page support later on. Bit 21 in the pte flags was unused and will now be used to mark a page as huge page (_PAGE_HPAGE_BIT). Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> 22 November 2015, 11:22:34 UTC
