      Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables · 050e9baa
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler
      support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
      option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler
      supported.
      
      That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case
      now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support
      directly.
      
      HOWEVER.
      
      It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong
      stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file,
      the sane stack protector configuration would look like
      
        CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
        # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
        # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
        # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
        CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y
      
      and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes,
      it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had
      been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just
      CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version
      used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would
      disable it in the new config, resulting in:
      
        CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
        CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
        CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
        # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
        CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y
      
      That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with
      the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing.
      
      The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack
      protector option, but also the strong one.  This does that by just
      removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really
      is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead
      automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users).
      
      This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their
      choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes.
      The end result would generally look like this:
      
        CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
        CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
        CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
        CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y
        CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y
      
      where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler
      infrastructure, not the user selections.

      xtensa: support hardware breakpoints/watchpoints · c91e02bd
      Max Filippov 提交于
      Use perf framework to manage hardware instruction and data breakpoints.
      Add two new ptrace calls: PTRACE_GETHBPREGS and PTRACE_SETHBPREGS to
      query and set instruction and data breakpoints.
      Address bit 0 choose instruction (0) or data (1) break register, bits
      31..1 are the register number.
      Both calls transfer two 32-bit words: address (0) and control (1).
      Instruction breakpoint contorl word is 0 to clear breakpoint, 1 to set.
      Data breakpoint control word bit 31 is 'trigger on store', bit 30 is
      'trigger on load, bits 29..0 are length. Length 0 is used to clear a
      breakpoint. To set a breakpoint length must be a power of 2 in the range
      1..64 and the address must be length-aligned.
      
      Introduce new thread_info flag: TIF_DB_DISABLED. Set it if debug
      exception is raised by the kernel code accessing watched userspace
      address and disable corresponding data breakpoint. On exit to userspace
      check that flag and, if set, restore all data breakpoints.
      
      Handle debug exceptions raised with PS.EXCM set. This may happen when
      window overflow/underflow handler or fast exception handler hits data
      breakpoint, in which case save and disable all data breakpoints,
      single-step faulting instruction and restore data breakpoints.

      xtensa: copy_thread with CLONE_VM must not copy live parent AR windows · 84ed3053
      Marc Gauthier 提交于
      When doing a fork (new VM), the new task has a mirror image of the
      parent's stack, so keeps the same live register windows etc.
      However when doing a clone with CLONE_VM, keeping the same VM
      (eg. when creating a new thread), the child starts afresh on a new
      stack -- it cannot share any part of the parent stack.  It
      especially cannot have the same live AR windows as the parent,
      otherwise it will overwrite the parent stack on overflow, likely
      causing corruption.  (and so it did...)
      
      Effectively, the register windows need to be spilled.
      Turns out it's much easier to simply not copy parent register
      windows when CLONE_VM is set.

      vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it · 91a27b2a
      Jeff Layton 提交于
      getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
      kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
      however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
      the string.
      
      For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
      amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
      we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
      need to recopy it from userspace.
      
      This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
      a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
      string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
      
      Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
      convenient.

      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer · d7627467
      David Howells 提交于
      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
      correctly on ARM:
      
      arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
      
      This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
      the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
      because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
      copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
      pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
      
      do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
      or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
      const should be fine.
      
      Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
      
      This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [XTENSA] Add support for configurable registers and coprocessors · c658eac6
      Chris Zankel 提交于
      The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and
      registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only
      accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows
      to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers
      needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch
      or during interrupt handling.
      
      This patch adds support for these additional states:
      
      - save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon
        interrupt entry and exit.
      - context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor
      - 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor
      - ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers
      - update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf

      [XTENSA] Clean up elf-gregset. · 8d7e8240
      Chris Zankel 提交于
      Remove additional registers from the ELF gregset structure that
      are only used by the kernel or are not required or invalid in
      user-space. The ar registers are always aligned to a windowbase
      value of 0, and the WB register is always assumed to be 0.
      Increase the size of the structure to 128 entries. This will
      provide enough space in future.
