      Revert "x86/mm: Stop calling leave_mm() in idle code" · 67535736
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      This reverts commit 43858b4f.
      
      The reason I removed the leave_mm() calls in question is because the
      heuristic wasn't needed after that patch.  With the original version
      of my PCID series, we never flushed a "lazy cpu" (i.e. a CPU running
      kernel thread) due a flush on the loaded mm.
      
      Unfortunately, that caused architectural issues, so now I've
      reinstated these flushes on non-PCID systems in:
      
          commit b956575b ("x86/mm: Flush more aggressively in lazy TLB mode").
      
      That, in turn, gives us a power management and occasionally
      performance regression as compared to old kernels: a process that
      goes into a deep idle state on a given CPU and gets its mm flushed
      due to activity on a different CPU will wake the idle CPU.
      
      Reinstate the old ugly heuristic: if a CPU goes into ACPI C3 or an
      intel_idle state that is likely to cause a TLB flush gets its mm
      switched to init_mm before going idle.
      
      FWIW, this heuristic is lousy.  Whether we should change CR3 before
      idle isn't a good hint except insofar as the performance hit is a bit
      lower if the TLB is getting flushed by the idle code anyway.  What we
      really want to know is whether we anticipate being idle long enough
      that the mm is likely to be flushed before we wake up.  This is more a
      matter of the expected latency than the idle state that gets chosen.
      This heuristic also completely fails on systems that don't know
      whether the TLB will be flushed (e.g. AMD systems?).  OTOH it may be a
      bit obsolete anyway -- PCID systems don't presently benefit from this
      heuristic at all.
      
      We also shouldn't do this callback from innermost bit of the idle code
      due to the RCU nastiness it causes.  All the information need is
      available before rcu_idle_enter() needs to happen.

      License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license · e2be04c7
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
      incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
      license under which the file is supposed to be.  This makes it hard for
      compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      Update these files with an SPDX license identifier.  The identifier was
      chosen based on the license information in the file.
      
      GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
      identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
      the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
      exception:
      
         NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
         services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
         of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
      
      This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
      code, without confusing license compliance tools.
      
      Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
      under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
      identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier.  The format
      is:
              ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)
      
      SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
      used instead of the full boiler plate text.  The update does not remove
      existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
      basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
      happen in a separate step.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
      methodology of how this patch was researched.

      License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license · 6f52b16c
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
      makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default are files without license information under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
      them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
      intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
      which is in the kernels COPYING file:
      
         NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
         services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
         of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
      
      otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
      license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
      Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
      Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

      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.

      futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined behaviour · 30d6e0a4
      Jiri Slaby 提交于
      There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
      futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
      and comparison of the result.
      
      Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
      assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.
      
      This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
      behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
      commit 5f16a046 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
      FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.
      
      And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
      also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.
      
      Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a2970 ("s390/uaccess:
      remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
      We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets
      optimized away anyway).

      mm: fix MADV_[FREE|DONTNEED] TLB flush miss problem · 99baac21
      Minchan Kim 提交于
      Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB
      problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2].
      
      Quote from Mel Gorman:
       "The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs
        while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs.
        CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty
        check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to
        flush.
      
        Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially
        writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a
        subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the
        underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future
        may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even
        though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible
        but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it
        happening."
      
      This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for
      other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3].
      
      TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending
      and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can
      catch there are parallel threads going on.  In that case, forcefully,
      flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry
      although it fail to gather page table entry.
      
      I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this
      patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range
      v2" in current mmotm.
      
      NOTE:
      
      This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64,
      s390, sh, um).  It seems most of architecture are straightforward but
      s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if
      mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry
      really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends.  However, this

      mm: refactor TLB gathering API · 56236a59
      Minchan Kim 提交于
      This patch is a preparatory patch for solving race problems caused by
      TLB batch.  For that, we will increase/decrease TLB flush pending count
      of mm_struct whenever tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu is called.
      
      Before making it simple, this patch separates architecture specific part
      and rename it to arch_tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu and generic part just
      calls it.
      
      It shouldn't change any behavior.

      signal: Remove kernel interal si_code magic · cc731525
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      struct siginfo is a union and the kernel since 2.4 has been hiding a union
      tag in the high 16bits of si_code using the values:
      __SI_KILL
      __SI_TIMER
      __SI_POLL
      __SI_FAULT
      __SI_CHLD
      __SI_RT
      __SI_MESGQ
      __SI_SYS
      
      While this looks plausible on the surface, in practice this situation has
      not worked well.
      
      - Injected positive signals are not copied to user space properly
        unless they have these magic high bits set.
      
      - Injected positive signals are not reported properly by signalfd
        unless they have these magic high bits set.
      
      - These kernel internal values leaked to userspace via ptrace_peek_siginfo
      
      - It was possible to inject these kernel internal values and cause the
        the kernel to misbehave.
      
      - Kernel developers got confused and expected these kernel internal values
        in userspace in kernel self tests.
      
      - Kernel developers got confused and set si_code to __SI_FAULT which
        is SI_USER in userspace which causes userspace to think an ordinary user
        sent the signal and that it was not kernel generated.
      
      - The values make it impossible to reorganize the code to transform
        siginfo_copy_to_user into a plain copy_to_user.  As si_code must
        be massaged before being passed to userspace.
      
      So remove these kernel internal si codes and make the kernel code simpler
      and more maintainable.
      
      To replace these kernel internal magic si_codes introduce the helper
      function siginfo_layout, that takes a signal number and an si_code and
      computes which union member of siginfo is being used.  Have
      siginfo_layout return an enumeration so that gcc will have enough
      information to warn if a switch statement does not handle all of union
      members.
      
      A couple of architectures have a messed up ABI that defines signal
      specific duplications of SI_USER which causes more special cases in
      siginfo_layout than I would like.  The good news is only problem
      architectures pay the cost.
      
      Update all of the code that used the previous magic __SI_ values to
      use the new SIL_ values and to call siginfo_layout to get those
      values.  Escept where not all of the cases are handled remove the
      defaults in the switch statements so that if a new case is missed in
      the future the lack will show up at compile time.
      
      Modify the code that copies siginfo si_code to userspace to just copy
      the value and not cast si_code to a short first.  The high bits are no
      longer used to hold a magic union member.
      
      Fixup the siginfo header files to stop including the __SI_ values in
      their constants and for the headers that were missing it to properly
      update the number of si_codes for each signal type.
      
      The fixes to copy_siginfo_from_user32 implementations has the
      interesting property that several of them perviously should never have
      worked as the __SI_ values they depended up where kernel internal.
      With that dependency gone those implementations should work much
      better.
      
      The idea of not passing the __SI_ values out to userspace and then
      not reinserting them has been tested with criu and criu worked without
      changes.

      signal/ia64: Document a conflict with SI_USER with SIGFPE · 80dce5e3
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Setting si_code to __SI_FAULT results in a userspace seeing
      an si_code of 0.  This is the same si_code as SI_USER.  Posix
      and common sense requires that SI_USER not be a signal specific
      si_code.  As such this use of 0 for the si_code is a pretty
      horribly broken ABI.
      
      Given that ia64 is on it's last legs I don't know that it is worth
      fixing this, but it is worth documenting what is going on so that
      no one decides to copy this bad decision.
      
      This was introduced in 2.3.51 so this mess has had a long time for
      people to be able to start depending on it.

      net: introduce SO_PEERGROUPS getsockopt · 28b5ba2a
      David Herrmann 提交于
      This adds the new getsockopt(2) option SO_PEERGROUPS on SOL_SOCKET to
      retrieve the auxiliary groups of the remote peer. It is designed to
      naturally extend SO_PEERCRED. That is, the underlying data is from the
      same credentials. Regarding its syntax, it is based on SO_PEERSEC. That
      is, if the provided buffer is too small, ERANGE is returned and @optlen
      is updated. Otherwise, the information is copied, @optlen is set to the
      actual size, and 0 is returned.
      
      While SO_PEERCRED (and thus `struct ucred') already returns the primary
      group, it lacks the auxiliary group vector. However, nearly all access
      controls (including kernel side VFS and SYSVIPC, but also user-space
      polkit, DBus, ...) consider the entire set of groups, rather than just
      the primary group. But this is currently not possible with pure
      SO_PEERCRED. Instead, user-space has to work around this and query the
      system database for the auxiliary groups of a UID retrieved via
      SO_PEERCRED.
      
      Unfortunately, there is no race-free way to query the auxiliary groups
      of the PID/UID retrieved via SO_PEERCRED. Hence, the current user-space
      solution is to use getgrouplist(3p), which itself falls back to NSS and
      whatever is configured in nsswitch.conf(3). This effectively checks
      which groups we *would* assign to the user if it logged in *now*. On
      normal systems it is as easy as reading /etc/group, but with NSS it can
      resort to quering network databases (eg., LDAP), using IPC or network
      communication.
      
      Long story short: Whenever we want to use auxiliary groups for access
      checks on IPC, we need further IPC to talk to the user/group databases,
      rather than just relying on SO_PEERCRED and the incoming socket. This
      is unfortunate, and might even result in dead-locks if the database
      query uses the same IPC as the original request.
      
      So far, those recursions / dead-locks have been avoided by using
      primitive IPC for all crucial NSS modules. However, we want to avoid
      re-inventing the wheel for each NSS module that might be involved in
      user/group queries. Hence, we would preferably make DBus (and other IPC
      that supports access-management based on groups) work without resorting
      to the user/group database. This new SO_PEERGROUPS ioctl would allow us
      to make dbus-daemon work without ever calling into NSS.

      uapi: export all headers under uapi directories · fcc8487d
      Nicolas Dichtel 提交于
      Regularly, when a new header is created in include/uapi/, the developer
      forgets to add it in the corresponding Kbuild file. This error is usually
      detected after the release is out.
      
      In fact, all headers under uapi directories should be exported, thus it's
      useless to have an exhaustive list.
