struct timespec is not y2038 safe on 32 bit machines. Replace uses of struct timespec with struct timespec64 in the kernel. The syscall interfaces themselves will be changed in a separate series. Note that the restart_block parameter for nanosleep has also been left unchanged and will be part of syscall series noted above.

Some embedded systems have no use for them. This removes about 25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out. Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create, timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete, clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm. The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast majority of use cases with very little code.

In the functions compat_get_bitmap() and compat_put_bitmap() the variable nr_compat_longs stores how many compat_ulong_t words should be copied in a loop. The copy loop itself is this: if (nr_compat_longs-- > 0) { if (__get_user(um, umask)) return -EFAULT; } else { um = 0; } Since nr_compat_longs gets unconditionally decremented in each loop and since it's type is unsigned this could theoretically lead to out of bounds accesses to userspace if nr_compat_longs wraps around to (unsigned)(-1). Although the callers currently do not trigger out-of-bounds accesses, we should better implement the loop in a safe way to completely avoid such warp-arounds.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack. Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by making the restart_block harder to locate. Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy targets, at least on some architectures. It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less identical on all architectures.

We have two APIs for compatiblity timespec/val, with confusingly similar names. compat_(get|put)_time(val|spec) *do* handle the case where COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is set, whereas (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) do not. This is an accident waiting to happen. Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c. A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in an allocation on the user stack. Unfortunately it is open-coded in several places. Since this allocation isn't actually needed if COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format) encapsulate that whole pattern into the function compat_convert_timespec(). An equivalent function should be written for struct timeval if it is needed in the future. Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said (no conversion actually was being done.) Moving the conversion into compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to sys_settimeofday() itself. v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval(). v2: Drop bogus "const" in the destination argument for compat_convert_time*().

Strictly speaking, ppc64 needs it for C ABI compliance. Realistically I would be very surprised if e.g. passing 0xffffffff as 'options' argument to waitid() from 32bit task would cause problems, but yes, it puts us into undefined behaviour territory. ppc64 expects int argument to be passed in 64bit register with bits 31..63 containing the same value. SYSCALL_DEFINE on ppc provides a wrapper that normalizes the value passed from userland; so does COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE. Plain declaration of compat_sys_something() with an int argument obviously doesn't. Again, for wait4 and waitid I would be extremely surprised if gcc started to produce code depending on that value having been properly sign-extended - the argument(s) in question end up passed blindly to sys_wait4 and sys_waitid resp. and normalization for native syscalls takes care of their use there. Still, better to use COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE here than worry about nasal daemons... Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

compat_sys_sigprocmask reads a smaller signal mask from userspace than sigprogmask accepts for setting. So the high word of blocked.sig[0] will be cleared, releasing any potentially blocked RT signal. This was discovered via userspace code that relies on get/setcontext. glibc's i386 versions of those functions use sigprogmask instead of rt_sigprogmask to save/restore signal mask and caused RT signal unblocking this way. As suggested by Linus, this replaces the sys_sigprocmask based compat version with one that open-codes the required logic, including the merge of the existing blocked set with the new one provided on SIG_SETMASK.

The existing <asm-generic/unistd.h> mechanism doesn't really provide enough to create the 64-bit "compat" ABI properly in a generic way, since the compat ABI is a mix of things were you can re-use the 64-bit versions of syscalls and things where you need a compat wrapper. To provide this in the most direct way possible, I added two new macros to go along with the existing __SYSCALL and __SC_3264 macros: __SC_COMP and SC_COMP_3264. These macros take an additional argument, typically a "compat_sys_xxx" function, which is passed to __SYSCALL if you define __SYSCALL_COMPAT when including the header, resulting in a pointer to the compat function being placed in the generated syscall table. The change also adds some missing definitions to <linux/compat.h> so that it actually has declarations for all the compat syscalls, since the "[nr] = ##call" approach requires proper C declarations for all the functions included in the syscall table. Finally, compat.c defines compat_sys_sigpending() and compat_sys_sigprocmask() even if the underlying architecture doesn't request it, which tries to pull in undefined compat_old_sigset_t defines. We need to guard those compat syscall definitions with appropriate __ARCH_WANT_SYS_xxx ifdefs. Acked-by: NArnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: NChris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could introduce problems on some architectures. This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length. The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the implementation of the new global function. This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.
