Currently ftrace_32.S and ftrace_64.S are compiled even when CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is not set. This means there's an unnecessary #ifdef to protect the code. Instead of using preprocessor directives, only compile those files when FUNCTION_TRACER is defined.

With the advent of -mfentry that uses the new "fentry" hook over mcount, the mcount name is obsolete. Having the code file that ftrace hooks into called "mcount*.S" is rather misleading.

This patch makes arch-independent testcases for RODATA. Both x86 and x86_64 already have testcases for RODATA, But they are arch-specific because using inline assembly directly. And cacheflush.h is not a suitable location for rodata-test related things. Since they were in cacheflush.h, If someone change the state of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA_TEST, It cause overhead of kernel build. To solve the above issues, write arch-independent testcases and move it to shared location.

CONFIG_DEBUG_NX_TEST has been broken since CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y was added in v2.6.37 via: 84e1c6bb ("x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules") since the exception table was then made read-only. Additionally, the manually constructed extables were never fixed when relative extables were introduced in v3.5 via: 70627654 ("x86, extable: Switch to relative exception table entries") However, relative extables won't work for test_nx.c, since test instruction memory areas may be more than INT_MAX away from an executable fixup (e.g. stack and heap too far away from executable memory with the fixup). Since clearly no one has been using this code for a while now, and similar tests exist in LKDTM, this should just be removed entirely.

Rename CONFIG_SCHED_ITMT for Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 to CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO. This makes the configuration extensible in future to other architectures that wish to similarly establish CPU core priorities support in the scheduler. The description in Kconfig is updated to reflect this change with added details for better clarity. The configuration is explicitly default-y, to enable the feature on CPUs that have this feature. It has no effect on non-TBM3 CPUs.

The TSC_ADJUST MSR shows whether the TSC has been modified. This is helpful in a two aspects: 1) It allows to detect BIOS wreckage, where SMM code tries to 'hide' the cycles spent by storing the TSC value at SMM entry and restoring it at SMM exit. On affected machines the TSCs run slowly out of sync up to the point where the clocksource watchdog (if available) detects it. The TSC_ADJUST MSR allows to detect the TSC modification before that and eventually restore it. This is also important for SoCs which have no watchdog clocksource and therefore TSC wreckage cannot be detected and acted upon. 2) All threads in a package are required to have the same TSC_ADJUST value. Broken BIOSes break that and as a result the TSC synchronization check fails. The TSC_ADJUST MSR allows to detect the deviation when a CPU comes online. If detected set it to the value of an already online CPU in the same package. This also allows to reduce the number of sync tests because with that in place the test is only required for the first CPU in a package. In principle all CPUs in a system should have the same TSC_ADJUST value even across packages, but with physical CPU hotplug this assumption is not true because the TSC starts with power on, so physical hotplug has to do some trickery to bring the TSC into sync with already running packages, which requires to use an TSC_ADJUST value different from CPUs which got powered earlier. A final enhancement is the opportunity to compensate for unsynced TSCs accross nodes at boot time and make the TSC usable that way. It won't help for TSCs which run apart due to frequency skew between packages, but this gets detected by the clocksource watchdog later. The first step toward this is to store the TSC_ADJUST value of a starting CPU and compare it with the value of an already online CPU in the same package. If they differ, emit a warning and adjust it to the reference value. The !SMP version just stores the boot value for later verification.

On platforms supporting Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, the maximum turbo frequencies of some cores in a CPU package may be higher than for the other cores in the same package. In that case, better performance (and possibly lower energy consumption as well) can be achieved by making the scheduler prefer to run tasks on the CPUs with higher max turbo frequencies. To that end, set up a core priority metric to abstract the core preferences based on the maximum turbo frequency. In that metric, the cores with higher maximum turbo frequencies are higher-priority than the other cores in the same package and that causes the scheduler to favor them when making load-balancing decisions using the asymmertic packing approach. At the same time, the priority of SMT threads with a higher CPU number is reduced so as to avoid scheduling tasks on all of the threads that belong to a favored core before all of the other cores have been given a task to run. The priority metric will be initialized by the P-state driver with the help of the sched_set_itmt_core_prio() function. The P-state driver will also determine whether or not ITMT is supported by the platform and will call sched_set_itmt_support() to indicate that.

The x86 stack dump code is a bit of a mess. dump_trace() uses callbacks, and each user of it seems to have slightly different requirements, so there are several slightly different callbacks floating around. Also there are some upcoming features which will need more changes to the stack dump code, including the printing of stack pt_regs, reliable stack detection for live patching, and a DWARF unwinder. Each of those features would at least need more callbacks and/or callback interfaces, resulting in a much bigger mess than what we have today. Before doing all that, we should try to clean things up and replace dump_trace() with something cleaner and more flexible. The new unwinder is a simple state machine which was heavily inspired by a suggestion from Andy Lutomirski: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CALCETrUbNTqaM2LRyXGRx=kVLRPeY5A3Pc6k4TtQxF320rUT=w@mail.gmail.com It's also similar to the libunwind API: http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/man/libunwind(3).html Some if its advantages: - Simplicity: no more callback sprawl and less code duplication. - Flexibility: it allows the caller to stop and inspect the stack state at each step in the unwinding process. - Modularity: the unwinder code, console stack dump code, and stack metadata analysis code are all better separated so that changing one of them shouldn't have much of an impact on any of the others. Two implementations are added which conform to the new unwind interface: - The frame pointer unwinder which is used for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y. - The "guess" unwinder which is used for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n. This isn't an "unwinder" per se. All it does is scan the stack for kernel text addresses. But with no frame pointers, guesses are better than nothing in most cases.

Implement arch_klp_init_object_loaded() for x86, which applies alternatives/paravirt patches. This fixes the order in which relocations and alternatives/paravirt patches are applied. Previously, if a patch module had alternatives or paravirt patches, these were applied first by the module loader before livepatch can apply per-object relocations. The (buggy) sequence of events was: (1) Load patch module (2) Apply alternatives and paravirt patches to patch module * Note that these are applied to the new functions in the patch module (3) Apply per-object relocations to patch module when target module loads. * This clobbers what was written in step 2 This lead to crashes and corruption in general, since livepatch would overwrite or step on previously applied alternative/paravirt patches. The correct sequence of events should be: (1) Load patch module (2) Apply per-object relocations to patch module (3) Apply alternatives and paravirt patches to patch module This is fixed by delaying paravirt/alternatives patching until after relocations are applied. Any .altinstructions or .parainstructions sections are prefixed with ".klp.arch.${objname}" and applied in arch_klp_init_object_loaded().

We have 4 types of x86 platforms that disable RTC: * Intel MID * Lguest - uses paravirt * Xen dom-U - uses paravirt * x86 on legacy systems annotated with an ACPI legacy flag We can consolidate all of these into a platform specific legacy quirk set early in boot through i386_start_kernel() and through x86_64_start_reservations(). This deals with the RTC quirks which we can rely on through the hardware subarch, the ACPI check can be dealt with separately. For Xen things are bit more complex given that the @X86_SUBARCH_XEN x86_hardware_subarch is shared on for Xen which uses the PV path for both domU and dom0. Since the semantics for differentiating between the two are Xen specific we provide a platform helper to help override default legacy features -- x86_platform.set_legacy_features(). Use of this helper is highly discouraged, its only purpose should be to account for the lack of semantics available within your given x86_hardware_subarch. As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as follows: TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks() +70 +62 +62 +43 Only 8 bytes overhead total, as the main increase in size is all removed via __init.

Reuse module loader code to write relocations, thereby eliminating the need for architecture specific relocation code in livepatch. Specifically, reuse the apply_relocate_add() function in the module loader to write relocations instead of duplicating functionality in livepatch's arch-dependent klp_write_module_reloc() function. In order to accomplish this, livepatch modules manage their own relocation sections (marked with the SHF_RELA_LIVEPATCH section flag) and livepatch-specific symbols (marked with SHN_LIVEPATCH symbol section index). To apply livepatch relocation sections, livepatch symbols referenced by relocs are resolved and then apply_relocate_add() is called to apply those relocations. In addition, remove x86 livepatch relocation code and the s390 klp_write_module_reloc() function stub. They are no longer needed since relocation work has been offloaded to module loader. Lastly, mark the module as a livepatch module so that the module loader canappropriately identify and initialize it.

Implement the stack depot and provide CONFIG_STACKDEPOT. Stack depot will allow KASAN store allocation/deallocation stack traces for memory chunks. The stack traces are stored in a hash table and referenced by handles which reside in the kasan_alloc_meta and kasan_free_meta structures in the allocated memory chunks. IRQ stack traces are cut below the IRQ entry point to avoid unnecessary duplication. Right now stackdepot support is only enabled in SLAB allocator. Once KASAN features in SLAB are on par with those in SLUB we can switch SLUB to stackdepot as well, thus removing the dependency on SLUB stack bookkeeping, which wastes a lot of memory. This patch is based on the "mm: kasan: stack depots" patch originally prepared by Dmitry Chernenkov. Joonsoo has said that he plans to reuse the stackdepot code for the mm/page_owner.c debugging facility.

kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible. Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

Code which runs outside the kernel's normal mode of operation often does unusual things which can cause a static analysis tool like objtool to emit false positive warnings: - boot image - vdso image - relocation - realmode - efi - head - purgatory - modpost Set OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD for their related files and directories, which will tell objtool to skip checking them. It's ok to skip them because they don't affect runtime stack traces. Also skip the following code which does the right thing with respect to frame pointers, but is too "special" to be validated by a tool: - entry - mcount Also skip the test_nx module because it modifies its exception handling table at runtime, which objtool can't understand. Fortunately it's just a test module so it doesn't matter much. Currently objtool is the only user of OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD, but it might eventually be useful for other tools.

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: NDave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

We currently register a platform device for e820 type-12 memory and register a nvdimm bus beneath it. Registering the platform device triggers the device-core machinery to probe for a driver, but that search currently comes up empty. Building the nvdimm-bus registration into the e820_pmem platform device registration in this way forces libnvdimm to be built-in. Instead, convert the built-in portion of CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY to simply register a platform device and move the rest of the logic to the driver for e820_pmem, for the following reasons: 1/ Letting e820_pmem support be a module allows building and testing libnvdimm.ko changes without rebooting 2/ All the normal policy around modules can be applied to e820_pmem (unbind to disable and/or blacklisting the module from loading by default) 3/ Moving the driver to a generic location and converting it to scan "iomem_resource" rather than "e820.map" means any other architecture can take advantage of this simple nvdimm resource discovery mechanism by registering a resource named "Persistent Memory (legacy)" Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NDan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Latter, after pages mapped to direct mapping address range we unmap zero pages from corresponding shadow (see kasan_map_shadow()) and allocate and map a real shadow memory reusing vmemmap_populate() function. Also replace __pa with __pa_nodebug before shadow initialized. __pa with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y make external function call (__phys_addr) __phys_addr is instrumented, so __asan_load could be called before shadow area initialized.

This commit introduces code for the live patching core. It implements an ftrace-based mechanism and kernel interface for doing live patching of kernel and kernel module functions. It represents the greatest common functionality set between kpatch and kgraft and can accept patches built using either method. This first version does not implement any consistency mechanism that ensures that old and new code do not run together. In practice, ~90% of CVEs are safe to apply in this way, since they simply add a conditional check. However, any function change that can not execute safely with the old version of the function can _not_ be safely applied in this version.

Currently new system call kexec_file_load() and all the associated code compiles if CONFIG_KEXEC=y. But new syscall also compiles purgatory code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large. This option seems to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards. Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break existing users of old gcc. Those who wish to enable new functionality will require new gcc. Having said that, I am trying to figure out how can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while. I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config option. As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used. This new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y. And all other arches had to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC. Now with introduction of new config option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches. Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64. So whereever I had CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that. For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to "depends on CRYPTO=y". This should be safer as "select" is not recursive. Signed-off-by: NVivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: H.

The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. This causes some 16-bit software to break, but it also leaks kernel state to user space. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 64-bit mode. In checkin: b3b42ac2 x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels we "solved" this by forbidding 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels, with the logic that 16-bit support is crippled on 64-bit kernels anyway (no V86 support), but it turns out that people are doing stuff like running old Win16 binaries under Wine and expect it to work. This works around this by creating percpu "ministacks", each of which is mapped 2^16 times 64K apart. When we detect that the return SS is on the LDT, we copy the IRET frame to the ministack and use the relevant alias to return to userspace. The ministacks are mapped readonly, so if IRET faults we promote #GP to #DF which is an IST vector and thus has its own stack; we then do the fixup in the #DF handler. (Making #GP an IST exception would make the msr_safe functions unsafe in NMI/MC context, and quite possibly have other effects.) Special thanks to: - Andy Lutomirski, for the suggestion of using very small stack slots and copy (as opposed to map) the IRET frame there, and for the suggestion to mark them readonly and let the fault promote to #DF. - Konrad Wilk for paravirt fixup and testing. - Borislav Petkov for testing help and useful comments.
