      vmcore: fix PT_NOTE n_namesz, n_descsz overflow issue · 34b47764
      WANG Chao 提交于
      When updating PT_NOTE header size (ie.  p_memsz), an overflow issue
      happens with the following bogus note entry:
      
        n_namesz = 0xFFFFFFFF
        n_descsz = 0x0
        n_type   = 0x0
      
      This kind of note entry should be dropped during updating p_memsz.  But
      because n_namesz is 32bit, after (n_namesz + 3) & (~3), it's overflow to
      0x0, the note entry size looks sane and reserved.
      
      When userspace (eg.  crash utility) is trying to access such bogus note,
      it could lead to an unexpected behavior (eg.  crash utility segment fault
      because it's reading bogus address).
      
      The source of bogus note hasn't been identified yet.  At least we could
      drop the bogus note so user space wouldn't be surprised.

      fs/proc/meminfo.c: include cma info in proc/meminfo · 47f8f929
      Pintu Kumar 提交于
      This patch include CMA info (CMATotal, CMAFree) in /proc/meminfo.
      Currently, in a CMA enabled system, if somebody wants to know the total
      CMA size declared, there is no way to tell, other than the dmesg or
      /var/log/messages logs.
      
      With this patch we are showing the CMA info as part of meminfo, so that it
      can be determined at any point of time.  This will be populated only when
      CMA is enabled.
      
      Below is the sample output from a ARM based device with RAM:512MB and CMA:16MB.
      
        MemTotal:         471172 kB

      genirq: Prevent proc race against freeing of irq descriptors · c291ee62
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      Since the rework of the sparse interrupt code to actually free the
      unused interrupt descriptors there exists a race between the /proc
      interfaces to the irq subsystem and the code which frees the interrupt
      descriptor.
      
      CPU0				CPU1
      				show_interrupts()
      				  desc = irq_to_desc(X);
      free_desc(desc)
        remove_from_radix_tree();
        kfree(desc);
      				  raw_spinlock_irq(&desc->lock);
      
      /proc/interrupts is the only interface which can actively corrupt
      kernel memory via the lock access. /proc/stat can only read from freed
      memory. Extremly hard to trigger, but possible.
      
      The interfaces in /proc/irq/N/ are not affected by this because the
      removal of the proc file is serialized in procfs against concurrent
      readers/writers. The removal happens before the descriptor is freed.
      
      For architectures which have CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=n this is a non issue
      as the descriptor is never freed. It's merely cleared out with the irq
      descriptor lock held. So any concurrent proc access will either see
      the old correct value or the cleared out ones.
      
      Protect the lookup and access to the irq descriptor in
      show_interrupts() with the sparse_irq_lock.
      
      Provide kstat_irqs_usr() which is protecting the lookup and access
      with sparse_irq_lock and switch /proc/stat to use it.
      
      Document the existing kstat_irqs interfaces so it's clear that the
      caller needs to take care about protection. The users of these
      interfaces are either not affected due to SPARSE_IRQ=n or already
      protected against removal.

      userns: Add a knob to disable setgroups on a per user namespace basis · 9cc46516
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      - Expose the knob to user space through a proc file /proc/<pid>/setgroups
      
        A value of "deny" means the setgroups system call is disabled in the
        current processes user namespace and can not be enabled in the
        future in this user namespace.
      
        A value of "allow" means the segtoups system call is enabled.
      
      - Descendant user namespaces inherit the value of setgroups from
        their parents.
      
      - A proc file is used (instead of a sysctl) as sysctls currently do
        not allow checking the permissions at open time.
      
      - Writing to the proc file is restricted to before the gid_map
        for the user namespace is set.
      
        This ensures that disabling setgroups at a user namespace
        level will never remove the ability to call setgroups
        from a process that already has that ability.
      
        A process may opt in to the setgroups disable for itself by
        creating, entering and configuring a user namespace or by calling
        setns on an existing user namespace with setgroups disabled.
        Processes without privileges already can not call setgroups so this
        is a noop.  Prodcess with privilege become processes without
        privilege when entering a user namespace and as with any other path
        to dropping privilege they would not have the ability to call
        setgroups.  So this remains within the bounds of what is possible
        without a knob to disable setgroups permanently in a user namespace.

      x86, mpx: Introduce VM_MPX to indicate that a VMA is MPX specific · 4aae7e43
      Qiaowei Ren 提交于
      MPX-enabled applications using large swaths of memory can
      potentially have large numbers of bounds tables in process
      address space to save bounds information. These tables can take
      up huge swaths of memory (as much as 80% of the memory on the
      system) even if we clean them up aggressively. In the worst-case
      scenario, the tables can be 4x the size of the data structure
      being tracked. IOW, a 1-page structure can require 4 bounds-table
      pages.
      
      Being this huge, our expectation is that folks using MPX are
      going to be keen on figuring out how much memory is being
      dedicated to it. So we need a way to track memory use for MPX.
      
      If we want to specifically track MPX VMAs we need to be able to
      distinguish them from normal VMAs, and keep them from getting
      merged with normal VMAs. A new VM_ flag set only on MPX VMAs does
      both of those things. With this flag, MPX bounds-table VMAs can
      be distinguished from other VMAs, and userspace can also walk
      /proc/$pid/smaps to get memory usage for MPX.
      
      In addition to this flag, we also introduce a special ->vm_ops
      specific to MPX VMAs (see the patch "add MPX specific mmap
      interface"), but currently different ->vm_ops do not by
      themselves prevent VMA merging, so we still need this flag.
      
      We understand that VM_ flags are scarce and are open to other
      options.
