      x86/mm/pat, /dev/mem: Remove superfluous error message · 39380b80
      Jiri Kosina 提交于
      Currently it's possible for broken (or malicious) userspace to flood a
      kernel log indefinitely with messages a-la
      
      	Program dmidecode tried to access /dev/mem between f0000->100000
      
      because range_is_allowed() is case of CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM being turned on
      dumps this information each and every time devmem_is_allowed() fails.
      
      Reportedly userspace that is able to trigger contignuous flow of these
      messages exists.
      
      It would be possible to rate limit this message, but that'd have a
      questionable value; the administrator wouldn't get information about all
      the failing accessess, so then the information would be both superfluous
      and incomplete at the same time :)
      
      Returning EPERM (which is what is actually happening) is enough indication
      for userspace what has happened; no need to log this particular error as
      some sort of special condition.

      /dev/mem: Use more consistent data types · 4707a341
      Thierry Reding 提交于
      The xlate_dev_{kmem,mem}_ptr() functions take either a physical address
      or a kernel virtual address, so data types should be phys_addr_t and
      void *. They both return a kernel virtual address which is only ever
      used in calls to copy_{from,to}_user(), so make variables that store it
      void * rather than char * for consistency.
      
      Also only define a weak unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() function if architectures
      haven't overridden them in the asm/io.h header file.

      /dev/mem: handle out-of-bounds read/write · 08d2d00b
      Petr Tesarik 提交于
      The loff_t type may be wider than phys_addr_t (e.g. on 32-bit systems).
      Consequently, the file offset may be truncated in the assignment.
      Currently, /dev/mem wraps around, which may cause applications to read
      or write incorrect regions of memory by accident.
      
      Let's follow POSIX file semantics here and return 0 when reading from
      and -EFBIG when writing to an offset that cannot be represented by a
      phys_addr_t.
      
      Note that the conditional is optimized out by the compiler if loff_t
      has the same size as phys_addr_t.

      /dev/oldmem: Remove the interface · a11edb59
      Zhang Yanfei 提交于
      /dev/oldmem provides the interface for us to access the "old memory" in
      the dump-capture kernel.  Unfortunately, no one actually uses this
      interface.
      
      And this interface could actually cause some real problems if used on ia64
      where the cached/uncached accesses are mixed.  See the discussion from the
      link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/12/386.
      
      So Eric suggested that we should remove /dev/oldmem as an unused piece of
      code.

      mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counter · 314e51b9
      Konstantin Khlebnikov 提交于
      A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
      currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:
      
       | effect                 | alternative flags
      -+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
      1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
      2| skip in core dump      | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
      3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
      4| do not mlock           | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
      
      This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct.  Seems like nobody
      cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
      reduces total_vm showed in proc.
      
      Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.
      
      remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
      remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

      kmsg: export printk records to the /dev/kmsg interface · e11fea92

      Support for multiple concurrent readers of /dev/kmsg, with read(),
      seek(), poll() support. Output of message sequence numbers, to allow
      userspace log consumers to reliably reconnect and reconstruct their
      state at any given time. After open("/dev/kmsg"), read() always
      returns *all* buffered records. If only future messages should be
      read, SEEK_END can be used. In case records get overwritten while
      /dev/kmsg is held open, or records get faster overwritten than they
      are read, the next read() will return -EPIPE and the current reading
      position gets updated to the next available record. The passed
      sequence numbers allow the log consumer to calculate the amount of
      lost messages.

      printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer · 7ff9554b
      Kay Sievers 提交于
      - Record-based stream instead of the traditional byte stream
        buffer. All records carry a 64 bit timestamp, the syslog facility
        and priority in the record header.
      
      - Records consume almost the same amount, sometimes less memory than
        the traditional byte stream buffer (if printk_time is enabled). The record
        header is 16 bytes long, plus some padding bytes at the end if needed.
        The byte-stream buffer needed 3 chars for the syslog prefix, 15 char for
        the timestamp and a newline.
      
      - Buffer management is based on message sequence numbers. When records
        need to be discarded, the reading heads move on to the next full
        record. Unlike the byte-stream buffer, no old logged lines get
        truncated or partly overwritten by new ones. Sequence numbers also
        allow consumers of the log stream to get notified if any message in
        the stream they are about to read gets discarded during the time
        of reading.
      
      - Better buffered IO support for KERN_CONT continuation lines, when printk()
        is called multiple times for a single line. The use of KERN_CONT is now
        mandatory to use continuation; a few places in the kernel need trivial fixes
        here. The buffering could possibly be extended to per-cpu variables to allow
        better thread-safety for multiple printk() invocations for a single line.
      
      - Full-featured syslog facility value support. Different facilities
        can tag their messages. All userspace-injected messages enforce a
        facility value > 0 now, to be able to reliably distinguish them from
        the kernel-generated messages. Independent subsystems like a
        baseband processor running its own firmware, or a kernel-related
        userspace process can use their own unique facility values. Multiple
        independent log streams can co-exist that way in the same
        buffer. All share the same global sequence number counter to ensure
        proper ordering (and interleaving) and to allow the consumers of the
        log to reliably correlate the events from different facilities.

      llseek: automatically add .llseek fop · 6038f373
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
      nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
      .llseek pointer.
      
      The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
      and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
      the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
      the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
      
      New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
      and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
      to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
      relies on calling seek on the device file.
      
      The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
      comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
      chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
      be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
      seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
      
      Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
      the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
      
      Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
      patch that does all this.

      Fix init ordering of /dev/console vs callers of modprobe · 31d1d48e
      David Howells 提交于
      Make /dev/console get initialised before any initialisation routine that
      invokes modprobe because if modprobe fails, it's going to want to open
      /dev/console, presumably to write an error message to.
      
      The problem with that is that if the /dev/console driver is not yet
      initialised, the chardev handler will call request_module() to invoke
      modprobe, which will fail, because we never compile /dev/console as a
      module.
      
      This will lead to a modprobe loop, showing the following in the kernel
      log:
      
      	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
      	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
      	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
      	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
      	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
      
      This can happen, for example, when the built in md5 module can't find
      the built in cryptomgr module (because the latter fails to initialise).
      The md5 module comes before the call to tty_init(), presumably because
      'crypto' comes before 'drivers' alphabetically.
      
      Fix this by calling tty_init() from chrdev_init().
