      compat: Move compat_timespec/ timeval to compat_time.h · 0d55303c
      Deepa Dinamani 提交于
      All the current architecture specific defines for these
      are the same. Refactor these common defines to a common
      header file.
      
      The new common linux/compat_time.h is also useful as it
      will eventually be used to hold all the defines that
      are needed for compat time types that support non y2038
      safe types. New architectures need not have to define these
      new types as they will only use new y2038 safe syscalls.
      This file can be deleted after y2038 when we stop supporting
      non y2038 safe syscalls.
      
      The patch also requires an operation similar to:
      
      git grep "asm/compat\.h" | cut -d ":" -f 1 |  xargs -n 1 sed -i -e "s%asm/compat.h%linux/compat.h%g"

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      ftrace/x86: Implement HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR · 471bd10f
      Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
      Use the more reliable version of ftrace_graph_ret_addr() so we no longer
      have to worry about the unwinder getting out of sync with the function
      graph ret_stack index, which can happen if the unwinder skips any frames
      before calling ftrace_graph_ret_addr().
      
      This fixes this issue (and several others like it):

      Enabling function graph tracing causes the stack trace to change in two
      ways:
      
      First, the real call addresses are confusingly interspersed with
      'return_to_handler' addresses.  This issue will be fixed by the next
      patch.
      
      Second, the stack trace is offset by two frames, because the unwinder
      skipped the first two frames and got out of sync with the ret_stack
      index.  This patch fixes this issue.

      tracing/syscalls: Allow archs to ignore tracing compat syscalls · f431b634
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The tracing of ia32 compat system calls has been a bit of a pain as they
      use different system call numbers than the 64bit equivalents.

      ELF binary and ran it under a x86_64 box. This is the result:

      Obviously I'm not calling newfstat with a fd of 4d55b085. The calls are
      obviously incorrect, and confusing.
      
      Other efforts have been made to fix this:
      
      https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/26/367
      
      But the real solution is to rewrite the syscall internals and come up
      with a fixed solution. One that doesn't require all the kluge that the
      current solution has.
      
      Thus for now, instead of outputting incorrect data, simply ignore them.
      With this patch the changes now have:
      
       #> grep lls /debug/tracing/trace
       #>
      
      Compat system calls simply are not traced. If users need compat
      syscalls, then they should just use the raw syscall tracepoints.
      
      For an architecture to make their compat syscalls ignored, it must
      define ARCH_TRACE_IGNORE_COMPAT_SYSCALLS (done in asm/ftrace.h) and also
      define an arch_trace_is_compat_syscall() function that will return true
      if the current task should ignore tracing the syscall.
      
      I want to stress that this change does not affect actual syscalls in any
      way, shape or form. It is only used within the tracing system and
      doesn't interfere with the syscall logic at all. The changes are
      consolidated nicely into trace_syscalls.c and asm/ftrace.h.
      
      I had to make one small modification to asm/thread_info.h and that was
      to remove the include of asm/ftrace.h. As asm/ftrace.h required the
      current_thread_info() it was causing include hell. That include was
      added back in 2008 when the function graph tracer was added:
      
       commit caf4b323 "tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracing"
      
      It does not need to be included there.

      ftrace/x86: Add support for -mfentry to x86_64 · d57c5d51
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      If the kernel is compiled with gcc 4.6.0 which supports -mfentry,
      then use that instead of mcount.
      
      With mcount, frame pointers are forced with the -pg option and we
      get something like:
      
      <can_vma_merge_before>:
             55                      push   %rbp
             48 89 e5                mov    %rsp,%rbp
             53                      push   %rbx
             41 51                   push   %r9
             e8 fe 6a 39 00          callq  ffffffff81483d00 <mcount>
             31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax
             48 89 fb                mov    %rdi,%rbx
             48 89 d7                mov    %rdx,%rdi
             48 33 73 30             xor    0x30(%rbx),%rsi
             48 f7 c6 ff ff ff f7    test   $0xfffffffff7ffffff,%rsi
      
      With -mfentry, frame pointers are no longer forced and the call looks
      like this:
      
      <can_vma_merge_before>:
             e8 33 af 37 00          callq  ffffffff81461b40 <__fentry__>
             53                      push   %rbx
             48 89 fb                mov    %rdi,%rbx
             31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax
             48 89 d7                mov    %rdx,%rdi
             41 51                   push   %r9
             48 33 73 30             xor    0x30(%rbx),%rsi
             48 f7 c6 ff ff ff f7    test   $0xfffffffff7ffffff,%rsi
      
      This adds the ftrace hook at the beginning of the function before a
      frame is set up, and allows the function callbacks to be able to access
      parameters. As kprobes now can use function tracing (at least on x86)
      this speeds up the kprobe hooks that are at the beginning of the
      function.

      ftrace: Synchronize variable setting with breakpoints · a192cd04
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      When the function tracer starts modifying the code via breakpoints
      it sets a variable (modifying_ftrace_code) to inform the breakpoint
      handler to call the ftrace int3 code.
      
      But there's no synchronization between setting this code and the
      handler, thus it is possible for the handler to be called on another
      CPU before it sees the variable. This will cause a kernel crash as
      the int3 handler will not know what to do with it.
      
      I originally added smp_mb()'s to force the visibility of the variable
      but H. Peter Anvin suggested that I just make it atomic.

      ftrace: pass module struct to arch dynamic ftrace functions · 31e88909
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Impact: allow archs more flexibility on dynamic ftrace implementations
      
      Dynamic ftrace has largly been developed on x86. Since x86 does not
      have the same limitations as other architectures, the ftrace interaction
      between the generic code and the architecture specific code was not
      flexible enough to handle some of the issues that other architectures
      have.
      
      Most notably, module trampolines. Due to the limited branch distance
      that archs make in calling kernel core code from modules, the module
      load code must create a trampoline to jump to what will make the
      larger jump into core kernel code.
      
      The problem arises when this happens to a call to mcount. Ftrace checks
      all code before modifying it and makes sure the current code is what
      it expects. Right now, there is not enough information to handle modifying
      module trampolines.
      
      This patch changes the API between generic dynamic ftrace code and
      the arch dependent code. There is now two functions for modifying code:
      
        ftrace_make_nop(mod, rec, addr) - convert the code at rec->ip into
             a nop, where the original text is calling addr. (mod is the
             module struct if called by module init)
      
        ftrace_make_caller(rec, addr) - convert the code rec->ip that should
             be a nop into a caller to addr.
      
      The record "rec" now has a new field called "arch" where the architecture
      can add any special attributes to each call site record.

      tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracing · caf4b323
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Impact: add infrastructure for function-return tracing
      
      Add low level support for ftrace return tracing.
      
      This plug-in stores return addresses on the thread_info structure of
      the current task.
      
      The index of the current return address is initialized when the task
      is the first one (init) and when a process forks (the child). It is
      not needed when a task does a sys_execve because after this syscall,
      it still needs to return on the kernel functions it called.
      
      Note that the code of return_to_handler has been suggested by Steven
      Rostedt as almost all of the ideas of improvements in this V3.
      
      For purpose of security, arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c is not traced
      because __switch_to() changes the current task during its execution.
      That could cause inconsistency in the stored return address of this
      function even if I didn't have any crash after testing with tracing on
      this function enabled.

      ftrace: nmi safe code modification · 17666f02
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Impact: fix crashes that can occur in NMI handlers, if their code is modified
      
      Modifying code is something that needs special care. On SMP boxes,
      if code that is being modified is also being executed on another CPU,
      that CPU will have undefined results.
      
      The dynamic ftrace uses kstop_machine to make the system act like a
      uniprocessor system. But this does not address NMIs, that can still
      run on other CPUs.
      
      One approach to handle this is to make all code that are used by NMIs
      not be traced. But NMIs can call notifiers that spread throughout the
      kernel and this will be very hard to maintain, and the chance of missing
      a function is very high.
      
      The approach that this patch takes is to have the NMIs modify the code
      if the modification is taking place. The way this works is that just
      writing to code executing on another CPU is not harmful if what is
      written is the same as what exists.
      
      Two buffers are used: an IP buffer and a "code" buffer.
      
      The steps that the patcher takes are:
      
       1) Put in the instruction pointer into the IP buffer
          and the new code into the "code" buffer.
       2) Set a flag that says we are modifying code
       3) Wait for any running NMIs to finish.
       4) Write the code
       5) clear the flag.
       6) Wait for any running NMIs to finish.
      
      If an NMI is executed, it will also write the pending code.
      Multiple writes are OK, because what is being written is the same.
      Then the patcher must wait for all running NMIs to finish before
      going to the next line that must be patched.
      
      This is basically the RCU approach to code modification.
      
      Thanks to Ingo Molnar for suggesting the idea, and to Arjan van de Ven

      This is the infrastructure to the converting the mcount call sites
      recorded by the __mcount_loc section into nops on boot. It also allows
      for using these sites to enable tracing as normal. When the __mcount_loc
      section is used, the "ftraced" kernel thread is disabled.
      
      This uses the current infrastructure to record the mcount call sites
      as well as convert them to nops. The mcount function is kept as a stub
      on boot up and not converted to the ftrace_record_ip function. We use the

      format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.
      
      The format:
      
      1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
      2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
         distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
      3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
         underscores.
