      x86-32: fix up strncpy_from_user() sign error · 12e993b8
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The 'max' range needs to be unsigned, since the size of the user address
      space is bigger than 2GB.
      
      We know that 'count' is positive in 'long' (that is checked in the
      caller), so we will truncate 'max' down to something that fits in a
      signed long, but before we actually do that, that comparison needs to be
      done in unsigned.
      
      Bug introduced in commit 92ae03f2 ("x86: merge 32/64-bit versions of
      'strncpy_from_user()' and speed it up").  On x86-64 you can't trigger
      this, since the user address space is much smaller than 63 bits, and on
      x86-32 it works in practice, since you would seldom hit the strncpy
      limits anyway.
      
      I had actually tested the corner-cases, I had only tested them on
      x86-64.  Besides, I had only worried about the case of a pointer *close*
      to the end of the address space, rather than really far away from it ;)
      
      This also changes the "we hit the user-specified maximum" to return
      'res', for the trivial reason that gcc seems to generate better code
      that way.  'res' and 'count' are the same in that case, so it really
      doesn't matter which one we return.

      ARM: 7386/1: jump_label: fixup for rename to static_key · 708e5978
      Rabin Vincent 提交于
      c5905afb ("static keys: Introduce 'struct static_key'...") renamed
      struct jump_label_key to struct static_key.  Fixup ARM for this to
      eliminate these build warnings:
      
        include/linux/jump_label.h:113:2:
        warning: passing argument 1 of 'arch_static_branch' from incompatible pointer type
        include/asm/jump_label.h:17:82:
        note: expected 'struct jump_label_key *' but argument is of type 'struct static_key *'

      ARM: 7384/1: ThumbEE: Disable userspace TEEHBR access for !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE · 078c0454
      Jonathan Austin 提交于
      Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE
      register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state
      of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the
      ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour
      when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing
      covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot
      jails.
      
      This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR
      when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to
      access TEEHBR.
