Right now we seem to be exporting the max data size contained inside vmcoreinfo note. But this does not include the size of meta data around vmcore info data. Like name of the note and starting and ending elf_note. I think user space expects total size and that size is put in PT_NOTE elf header. Things seem to be fine so far because we are not using vmcoreinfo note to the maximum capacity. But as it starts filling up, to capacity, at some point of time, problem will be visible. I don't think user space will be broken with this change. So there is no need to introduce vmcoreinfo2. This change is safe and backward compatible. More explanation on why this change is safe is below. vmcoreinfo contains information about kernel which user space needs to know to do things like filtering. For example, various kernel config options or information about size or offset of some data structures etc. All this information is commmunicated to user space with an ELF note present in ELF /proc/vmcore file. Currently vmcoreinfo data size is 4096. With some elf note meta data around it, actual size is 4132 bytes. But we are using barely 25% of that size. Rest is empty. So even if we tell user space that size of ELf note is 4096 and not 4132, nothing will be broken becase after around 1000 bytes, everything is zero anyway. But once we start filling up the note to the capacity, and not report the full size of note, bad things will start happening. Either some data will be lost or tools will be confused that they did not fine the zero note at the end. So I think this change is safe and should not break existing tools.

For general-purpose (i.e. distro) kernel builds it makes sense to build with CONFIG_KEXEC to allow end users to choose what kind of things they want to do with kexec. However, in the face of trying to lock down a system with such a kernel, there needs to be a way to disable kexec_load (much like module loading can be disabled). Without this, it is too easy for the root user to modify kernel memory even when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM and modules_disabled are set. With this change, it is still possible to load an image for use later, then disable kexec_load so the image (or lack of image) can't be altered. The intention is for using this in environments where "perfect" enforcement is hard. Without a verified boot, along with verified modules, and along with verified kexec, this is trying to give a system a better chance to defend itself (or at least grow the window of discoverability) against attack in the face of a privilege escalation. In my mind, I consider several boot scenarios: 1) Verified boot of read-only verified root fs loading fd-based verification of kexec images. 2) Secure boot of writable root fs loading signed kexec images. 3) Regular boot loading kexec (e.g. kcrash) image early and locking it. 4) Regular boot with no control of kexec image at all. 1 and 2 don't exist yet, but will soon once the verified kexec series has landed. 4 is the state of things now. The gap between 2 and 4 is too large, so this change creates scenario 3, a middle-ground above 4 when 2 and 1 are not possible for a system.

fs_struct->in_exec == T means that this ->fs is used by a single process (thread group), and one of the treads does do_execve(). To avoid the mt-exec races this code has the following complications: 1. check_unsafe_exec() returns -EBUSY if ->in_exec was already set by another thread. 2. do_execve_common() records "clear_in_exec" to ensure that the error path can only clear ->in_exec if it was set by current. However, after 9b1bf12d "signals: move cred_guard_mutex from task_struct to signal_struct" we do not need these complications: 1. We can't race with our sub-thread, this is called under per-process ->cred_guard_mutex. And we can't race with another CLONE_FS task, we already checked that this fs is not shared. We can remove the dead -EAGAIN logic. 2. "out_unmark:" in do_execve_common() is either called under ->cred_guard_mutex, or after de_thread() which kills other threads, so we can't race with sub-thread which could set ->in_exec. And if ->fs is shared with another process ->in_exec should be false anyway. We can clear in_exec unconditionally. This also means that check_unsafe_exec() can be void.

next_thread() should be avoided, change check_unsafe_exec() to use while_each_thread(). Nobody except signal->curr_target actually needs next_thread-like code, and we need to change (fix) this interface. This particular code is fine, p == current. But in general the code like this can loop forever if p exits and next_thread(t) can't reach the unhashed thread. This also saves 32 bytes.

PROC_FS is a bool, so this code is either present or absent. It will never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is rather misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be ugly at best. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code) will thus change these registrations from level 6-device to level 5-fs (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that small difference has been observed during testing, or is expected. Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the registration of vmcore_init as an initcall.

Distribution kernels might want to build in support for /proc/device-tree for kernels that might end up running on hardware that doesn't support openfirmware. This results in an empty /proc/device-tree existing. Remove it if the OFW root node doesn't exist. This situation actually confuses grub2, resulting in install failures. grub2 sees the /proc/device-tree and picks the wrong install target cf. http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/grub/trunk/grub/annotate/4300/util/grub-install.in#L311 grub should be more robust, but still, leaving an empty proc dir seems pointless.

proc_task_readdir() does not really need "leader", first_tid() has to revalidate it anyway. Just pass proc_pid(inode) to first_tid() instead, it can do pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) itself and read ->group_leader only if necessary. The patch also extracts the "inode is dead" code from pid_delete_dentry(dentry) into the new trivial helper, proc_inode_is_dead(inode), proc_task_readdir() uses it to return -ENOENT if this dir was removed. This is a bit racy, but the race is very inlikely and the getdents() after openndir() can see the empty "." + ".." dir only once. Signed-off-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

proc_task_readdir() verifies that the result of get_proc_task() is pid_alive() and thus its ->group_leader is fine too. However this is not necessarily true after rcu_read_unlock(), we need to recheck this again after first_tid() does rcu_read_lock(). Otherwise leader->thread_group.next (used by next_thread()) can be invalid if the rcu grace period expires in between. The race is subtle and unlikely, but still it is possible afaics. To simplify lets ignore the "likely" case when tid != 0, f_version can be cleared by proc_task_operations->llseek(). Suppose we have a main thread M and its subthread T. Suppose that f_pos == 3, iow first_tid() should return T. Now suppose that the following happens between rcu_read_unlock() and rcu_read_lock(): 1. T execs and becomes the new leader. This removes M from ->thread_group but next_thread(M) is still T. 2. T creates another thread X which does exec as well, T goes away. 3. X creates another subthread, this increments nr_threads. 4. first_tid() does next_thread(M) and returns the already dead T. Note also that we need 2. and 3. only because of get_nr_threads() check, and this check was supposed to be optimization only. Signed-off-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

set_dumpable() updates MMF_DUMPABLE_MASK in a non-trivial way to ensure that get_dumpable() can't observe the intermediate state, but this all can't help if multiple threads call set_dumpable() at the same time. And in theory commit_creds()->set_dumpable(SUID_DUMP_ROOT) racing with sys_prctl()->set_dumpable(SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) can result in SUID_DUMP_USER. Change this code to update both bits atomically via cmpxchg(). Note: this assumes that it is safe to mix bitops and cmpxchg. IOW, if, say, an architecture implements cmpxchg() using the locking (like arch/parisc/lib/bitops.c does), then it should use the same locks for set_bit/etc. Signed-off-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: NKees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Alex Kelly <alex.page.kelly@gmail.com> Cc: "Eric W.

HFS+ resource fork lookup breaks opendir() library function. Since opendir first calls open() with O_DIRECTORY flag set. O_DIRECTORY means "refuse to open if not a directory". The open system call in the kernel does a check for inode->i_op->lookup and returns -ENOTDIR. So if hfsplus_file_lookup is set it allows opendir() for plain files. Also resource fork lookup in HFS+ does not work. Since it is never invoked after VFS permission checking. It will always return with -EACCES. When we call opendir() on a file, it does not return NULL. opendir() library call is based on open with O_DIRECTORY flag passed and then layered on top of getdents() system call. O_DIRECTORY means "refuse to open if not a directory". The open() system call in the kernel does a check for: do_sys_open() -->..--> can_lookup() i.e it only checks inode->i_op->lookup and returns ENOTDIR if this function pointer is not set. In OSX, we can open "file/rsrc" to get the resource fork of "file". This behavior is emulated inside hfsplus on Linux, which means that to some degree every file acts like a directory. That is the reason lookup() inode operations is supported for files, and it is possible to do a lookup on this specific name. As a result of this open succeeds without returning ENOTDIR for HFS+ Please see the LKML discussion thread on this issue: http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=122823343730412&w=2 I tried to test file/rsrc lookup in HFS+ driver and the feature does not work. From OSX: $ touch test $ echo "1234" > test/..namedfork/rsrc $ ls -l test..namedfork/rsrc --rw-r--r-- 1 tuxera staff 5 10 dec 12:59 test/..namedfork/rsrc [sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ id uid=1000(sougata) gid=1000(sougata) groups=1000(sougata),5(tty),18(dialout),1001(vboxusers) [sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ mount /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/tmp type hfsplus (rw,relatime,umask=0,uid=1000,gid=1000,nls=utf8) [sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ ls -l test/rsrc ls: cannot access test/rsrc: Permission denied According to this LKML thread it is expected behavior. http://marc.info/?t=121139033800008&r=1&w=4 I guess now that permission checking happens in vfs generic_permission() ? So it turns out that even though the lookup() inode_operation exists for HFS+ files. It cannot really get invoked ?. So if we can disable this feature to make opendir() work for HFS+.
