      seq_file: fix mishandling of consecutive pread() invocations. · 7904ac84
      Earl Chew 提交于
      The following program illustrates the problem:
      
          char buf[8192];
      
          int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY);
      
          n = pread(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
          printf("%d\n", n);
      
          /* lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR); */ /* Uncomment to work around */
      
          n = pread(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
          printf("%d\n", n);
      
      The second printf() prints zero, but uncommenting the lseek() corrects its
      behaviour.
      
      To fix, make seq_read() mirror seq_lseek() when processing changes in
      *ppos.  Restore m->version first, then if required traverse and update
      read_pos on success.

      mm: thp: fix pmd_bad() triggering in code paths holding mmap_sem read mode · 1a5a9906
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with
      the mmap_sem hold in read mode.  In those cases the huge page faults can
      allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a
      false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd
      materializing as trans huge.
      
      It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem
      in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode
      to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it
      seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's
      restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds).  The race is only with
      the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a
      pmd_trans_huge().
      
      Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with
      mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and
      the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously.  This is
      probably why it wasn't common to run into this.  For example if the
      madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page
      fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it
      will be zapped.
      
      Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough
      to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call
      zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a
      pmd_trans_huge()).
      
      The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack
      (regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only
      compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code
      that computes its value.  Even if the real pmd is changing under the
      value we hold on the stack, we don't care.  If we actually end up in
      zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge,
      and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained
      above).
      
      All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code
      path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad
      can run into a hugepmd.  The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler
      tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds).  I
      don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race
      too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been
      verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering
      pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines
      and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and
      pmd_none_or_clear_bad).
      
      		if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) {
      			if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) {
      				VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem));
      				split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd);
      			} else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr))
      				continue;
      			/* fall through */
      		}
      		if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd))
      
      Because this race condition could be exercised without special
      privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179.
      
      The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it.
      I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference.

            mapcount 0 page_mapcount 1
            kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1384!
      
          At some point prior to the panic, a "bad pmd ..." message similar to the
          following is logged on the console:
      
            mm/memory.c:145: bad pmd ffff8800376e1f98(80000000314000e7).
      
          The "bad pmd ..." message is logged by pmd_clear_bad() before it clears
          the page's PMD table entry.
      
              143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd)
              144 {
          ->  145         pmd_ERROR(*pmd);
              146         pmd_clear(pmd);
              147 }
      
          After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency
          between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page
          and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page
          is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency.
      
             1381         if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page))
             1382                 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n",
             1383                        mapcount, page_mapcount(page));
          -> 1384         BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page));
      
          The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded
          process. Thread B incurs a page fault on a virtual address that has never
          been accessed (PMD entry is zero) while Thread A is executing an madvise()
          system call on a virtual address within the same 2 MB (huge page) range.

          The mmap_sem does not prevent the race because both threads are acquiring
          it in shared mode (down_read).  Thread B holds the page_table_lock while
          the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated.  However, Thread A
          does not synchronize on that lock.

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull irq_domain support for all architectures from Grant Likely:
       "Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain
      
        This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping
        from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it,
        renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures.
      
        Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain
        implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such
        as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
        more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
        refactoring it in-place.  So, this branch rips out the 'new'
        irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
        fully bisectable way of course).  It converts all users over to the
        new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.
      
        No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
        is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations.  It will
        even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
        translating irqs at boot time.  MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
        are converted too.
      
        The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
        optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
        follow-on patches."

      exit_signal: fix the "parent has changed security domain" logic · b6e238dc
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      exit_notify() changes ->exit_signal if the parent already did exec.
      This doesn't really work, we are not going to send the signal now
      if there is another live thread or the exiting task is traced. The
      parent can exec before the last dies or the tracer detaches.
      
      Move this check into do_notify_parent() which actually sends the
      signal.
      
      The user-visible change is that we do not change ->exit_signal,
      and thus the exiting task is still "clone children" for
      do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE). Hopefully this is fine, the
      current logic is racy anyway.

      exit_signal: simplify the "we have changed execution domain" logic · e6368253
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      exit_notify() checks "tsk->self_exec_id != tsk->parent_exec_id"
      to handle the "we have changed execution domain" case.
      
      We can change do_thread() to always set ->exit_signal = SIGCHLD
      and remove this check to simplify the code.
      
      We could change setup_new_exec() instead, this looks more logical
      because it increments ->self_exec_id. But note that de_thread()
      already resets ->exit_signal if it changes the leader, let's keep
      both changes close to each other.
      
      Note that we change ->exit_signal lockless, this changes the rules.
      Thereafter ->exit_signal is not stable under tasklist but this is
      fine, the only possible change is OLDSIG -> SIGCHLD. This can race
      with eligible_child() but the race is harmless. We can race with
      reparent_leader() which changes our ->exit_signal in parallel, but
      it does the same change to SIGCHLD.
      
      The noticeable user-visible change is that the execing task is not
      "visible" to do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE) right after exec.
      To me this looks more logical, and this is consistent with mt case.

      CLONE_PARENT shouldn't allow to set ->exit_signal · 5f8aadd8
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      The child must not control its ->exit_signal, it is the parent who
      decides which signal the child should use for notification.
      
      This means that CLONE_PARENT should not use "clone_flags & CSIGNAL",
      the forking task is the sibling of the new process and their parent
      doesn't control exit_signal in this case.
      
      This patch uses ->exit_signal of the forking process, but perhaps
      we should simply use SIGCHLD.
      
      We read group_leader->exit_signal lockless, this can race with the
      ORIGINAL_SIGNAL -> SIGCHLD transition, but this is fine.
      
      Potentially this change allows to kill self_exec_id/parent_exec_id.

      Fix pppol2tp getsockname() · bbdb32cb
      Benjamin LaHaise 提交于
      While testing L2TP functionality, I came across a bug in getsockname().  The
      IP address returned within the pppol2tp_addr's addr memember was not being
      set to the IP  address in use.  This bug is caused by using inet_sk() on the
      wrong socket (the L2TP socket rather than the underlying UDP socket), and was
      likely introduced during the addition of L2TPv3 support.

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar:
      
       - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and
         the tooling side, on CPUs that support it.  (modern x86 Intel CPUs
         with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.)
      
         This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for
         branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from
         regular, function histogram centric profiles.
      
         The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result
         looks like this in perf report:
      
      	$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy
      
      	$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
      	    52.34%  [.] main                   [.] f1
      	    24.04%  [.] f1                     [.] f3
      	    23.60%  [.] f1                     [.] f2
      	     0.01%  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn    [k] _IO_file_overflow
      	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
      	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] strchrnul
      	     0.01%  [k] __printf               [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
      	     0.01%  [k] main                   [k] __printf
      
         This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest
         percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e.  the most likely taken
         branches in the system.  "branches" can also include function calls
         and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the
         instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system
         calls, traps, interrupts, etc.
      
         This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI
         support in perf report.
      
       - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies.
         It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter
         you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other
         improvements.
      
       - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf
         stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs:
      
      	perf top -p 21483,21485
      	perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
      	perf record -p 21483,21485
      
       - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf
         report, etc.  For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the
         tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc.
      
       - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the
         factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h
         generic facility:
      
      	struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;
      
      	...
      
      	if (static_key_false(&key))
      	        do unlikely code
      	else
      	        do likely code
      
      	...
      	static_key_slow_inc();
      	...
      	static_key_slow_inc();
      	...
      
         The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as
         little impact to the likely code path as possible.  the
         static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching.
      
         This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to
         micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key
         usage and fast/slow cost patterns.
      
       - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support.
      
       - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's
         smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more
         smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows
         better, etc.
      
       - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes',
         and a corner case bugfix.
      
       - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk).
      
       - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space
         self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any
         system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side.
      
       - 'perf bench' improvements
      
       - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made
         these features possible.  And, as usual this list is incomplete as
         there were also lots of other improvements

      Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 5928a2b6
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull RCU changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar.  The major features of this
      series are:
      
       - making RCU more aggressive about entering dyntick-idle mode in order
         to improve energy efficiency
      
       - converting a few more call_rcu()s to kfree_rcu()s
      
       - applying a number of rcutree fixes and cleanups to rcutiny
      
       - removing CONFIG_SMP #ifdefs from treercu
      
       - allowing RCU CPU stall times to be set via sysfs
      
       - adding CPU-stall capability to rcutorture
      
       - adding more RCU-abuse diagnostics
      
       - updating documentation
      
       - fixing yet more issues located by the still-ongoing top-to-bottom
         inspection of RCU, this time with a special focus on the CPU-hotplug
         code path.
