The explicit local_irq_save() in __lock_task_sighand() is needed to avoid a potential deadlock condition, as noted in a841796f (signal: align __lock_task_sighand() irq disabling and RCU). However, someone reading the code might be forgiven for concluding that this separate local_irq_save() was completely unnecessary. This commit therefore adds a comment referencing the shiny new block comment on rcu_read_unlock(). Reported-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Commit ac1bea85 (Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states) fixed a problem where a CPU looping in the kernel with but one runnable task would give RCU CPU stall warnings, even if the in-kernel loop contained cond_resched() calls. Unfortunately, in so doing, it introduced performance regressions in Anton Blanchard's will-it-scale "open1" test. The problem appears to be not so much the increased cond_resched() path length as an increase in the rate at which grace periods complete, which increased per-update grace-period overhead. This commit takes a different approach to fixing this bug, mainly by moving the RCU-visible quiescent state from cond_resched() to rcu_note_context_switch(), and by further reducing the check to a simple non-zero test of a single per-CPU variable. However, this approach requires that the force-quiescent-state processing send resched IPIs to the offending CPUs. These will be sent only once the grace period has reached an age specified by the boot/sysfs parameter rcutree.jiffies_till_sched_qs, or once the grace period reaches an age halfway to the point at which RCU CPU stall warnings will be emitted, whichever comes first.

Currently, call_rcu() relies on implicit allocation and initialization for the debug-objects handling of RCU callbacks. If you hammer the kernel hard enough with Sasha's modified version of trinity, you can end up with the sl*b allocators recursing into themselves via this implicit call_rcu() allocation. This commit therefore exports the debug_init_rcu_head() and debug_rcu_head_free() functions, which permits the allocators to allocated and pre-initialize the debug-objects information, so that there no longer any need for call_rcu() to do that initialization, which in turn prevents the recursion into the memory allocators.

The kernel has no concept of capabilities with respect to inodes; inodes exist independently of namespaces. For example, inode_capable(inode, CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE) would be nonsense. This patch changes inode_capable to check for uid and gid mappings and renames it to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid, which should make it more obvious what it does. Fixes CVE-2014-4014.

The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist. With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this causes the kernel to crash. Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see if the buffer was allocated or not and return -ENODEV if it is not. More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace.

When writing to a sysctl string, each write, regardless of VFS position, begins writing the string from the start. This means the contents of the last write to the sysctl controls the string contents instead of the first: open("/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe", O_WRONLY) = 1 write(1, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"..., 4096) = 4096 write(1, "/bin/true", 9) = 9 close(1) = 0 $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe /bin/true Expected behaviour would be to have the sysctl be "AAAA..." capped at maxlen (in this case KMOD_PATH_LEN: 256), instead of truncating to the contents of the second write. Similarly, multiple short writes would not append to the sysctl. The old behavior is unlike regular POSIX files enough that doing audits of software that interact with sysctls can end up in unexpected or dangerous situations. For example, "as long as the input starts with a trusted path" turns out to be an insufficient filter, as what must also happen is for the input to be entirely contained in a single write syscall -- not a common consideration, especially for high level tools. This provides kernel.sysctl_writes_strict as a way to make this behavior act in a less surprising manner for strings, and disallows non-zero file position when writing numeric sysctls (similar to what is already done when reading from non-zero file positions). For now, the default (0) is to warn about non-zero file position use, but retain the legacy behavior. Setting this to -1 disables the warning, and setting this to 1 enables the file position respecting behavior.

Consolidate buffer length checking with new-line/end-of-line checking. Additionally, instead of reading user memory twice, just do the assignment during the loop. This change doesn't affect the potential races here. It was already possible to read a sysctl that was in the middle of a write. In both cases, the string will always be NULL terminated.

When writing to a sysctl string, each write, regardless of VFS position, began writing the string from the start. This meant the contents of the last write to the sysctl controlled the string contents instead of the first. This misbehavior was featured in an exploit against Chrome OS. While it's not in itself a vulnerability, it's a weirdness that isn't on the mind of most auditors: "This filter looks correct, the first line written would not be meaningful to sysctl" doesn't apply here, since the size of the write and the contents of the final write are what matter when writing to sysctls. This adds the sysctl kernel.sysctl_writes_strict to control the write behavior. The default (0) reports when VFS position is non-0 on a write, but retains legacy behavior, -1 disables the warning, and 1 enables the position-respecting behavior. The long-term plan here is to wait for userspace to be fixed in response to the new warning and to then switch the default kernel behavior to the new position-respecting behavior.

Usage: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" to kernel boot option. Note that this actually increases risks of the failure of kdump.

由 Srivatsa S. Bhat 提交于
There is a longstanding problem related to CPU hotplug which causes IPIs to be delivered to offline CPUs, and the smp-call-function IPI handler code prints out a warning whenever this is detected. Every once in a while this (usually harmless) warning gets reported on LKML, but so far it has not been completely fixed. Usually the solution involves finding out the IPI sender and fixing it by adding appropriate synchronization with CPU hotplug. However, while going through one such internal bug reports, I found that there is a significant bug in the receiver side itself (more specifically, in stop-machine) that can lead to this problem even when the sender code is perfectly fine. This patchset fixes that synchronization problem in the CPU hotplug stop-machine code. Patch 1 adds some additional debug code to the smp-call-function framework, to help debug such issues easily. Patch 2 modifies the stop-machine code to ensure that any IPIs that were sent while the target CPU was online, would be noticed and handled by that CPU without fail before it goes offline. Thus, this avoids scenarios where IPIs are received on offline CPUs (as long as the sender uses proper hotplug synchronization). In fact, I debugged the problem by using Patch 1, and found that the payload of the IPI was always the block layer's trigger_softirq() function. But I was not able to find anything wrong with the block layer code. That's when I started looking at the stop-machine code and realized that there is a race-window which makes the IPI _receiver_ the culprit, not the sender. Patch 2 fixes that race and hence this should put an end to most of the hard-to-debug IPI-to-offline-CPU issues. This patch (of 2): Today the smp-call-function code just prints a warning if we get an IPI on an offline CPU. This info is sufficient to let us know that something went wrong, but often it is very hard to debug exactly who sent the IPI and why, from this info alone. In most cases, we get the warning about the IPI to an offline CPU, immediately after the CPU going offline comes out of the stop-machine phase and reenables interrupts. Since all online CPUs participate in stop-machine, the information regarding the sender of the IPI is already lost by the time we exit the stop-machine loop. So even if we dump the stack on each CPU at this point, we won't find anything useful since all of them will show the stack-trace of the stopper thread. So we need a better way to figure out who sent the IPI and why. To achieve this, when we detect an IPI targeted to an offline CPU, loop through the call-single-data linked list and print out the payload (i.e., the name of the function which was supposed to be executed by the target CPU). This would give us an insight as to who might have sent the IPI and help us debug this further.

While at it, change prepare_signal() to use for_each_thread() instead of do/while_each_thread.

When tracing a process in another pid namespace, it's important for fork event messages to contain the child's pid as seen from the tracer's pid namespace, not the parent's. Otherwise, the tracer won't be able to correlate the fork event with later SIGTRAP signals it receives from the child. We still risk a race condition if a ptracer from a different pid namespace attaches after we compute the pid_t value. However, sending a bogus fork event message in this unlikely scenario is still a vast improvement over the status quo where we always send bogus fork event messages to debuggers in a different pid namespace than the forking process.

Adds trace events that give finer resolution into suspend/resume. These events are graphed in the timelines generated by the analyze_suspend.py script. They represent large areas of time consumed that are typical to suspend and resume. The event is triggered by calling the function "trace_suspend_resume" with three arguments: a string (the name of the event to be displayed in the timeline), an integer (case specific number, such as the power state or cpu number), and a boolean (where true is used to denote the start of the timeline event, and false to denote the end). The suspend_resume trace event reproduces the data that the machine_suspend trace event did, so the latter has been removed.

Yoshihiro Yunomae reported that the ring buffer data for a trace instance does not get properly cleaned up when it fails. He proposed a patch that manually cleaned the data up and addad a bunch of labels. The labels are not needed because all trace array is allocated with a kzalloc which initializes it to 0 and all kfree()s can take a NULL pointer and will ignore it. Adding a new helper function free_trace_buffers() that can also take null buffers to free the buffers that were allocated by allocate_trace_buffers().

If tracing is disabled on boot up, the kernel should not execute tracing self tests. The kernel should check whether tracing is disabled or not before executing any of the tracing self tests.

ftrace_trace_arrays links global_trace.list. However, global_trace is not added to ftrace_trace_arrays if trace_alloc_buffers() failed. As the result, ftrace_trace_arrays becomes an empty list. If ftrace_trace_arrays is an empty list, current top_trace_array() returns an invalid pointer. As the result, the kernel can induce memory corruption or panic. Current implementation does not check whether ftrace_trace_arrays is empty list or not. So, in this patch, if ftrace_trace_arrays is empty list, top_trace_array() returns NULL. Moreover, this patch makes all functions calling top_trace_array() handle it appropriately.
