由 Anil S Keshavamurthy 提交于
In case of reentrance i.e when a probe handler calls a functions which inturn has a probe, we save a previous kprobe information and just single step the reentrant probe without calling the actual probe handler. During this reentracy period, if an interrupt occurs and if probe happens to trigger in the inturrupt path, then we were corrupting the previous kprobe( as we were overriding the previous kprobe info) info their by crashing the system. This patch fixes this issues by having a an array of previous kprobe info struct(with the array size of 2). This similar technique is not needed on i386 and x86_64 because by default interrupts are turn off in the break/int3 exception handler.

When auditing syscalls that send signals, log the pid and security context for each target process. Optimize the data collection by adding a counter for signal-related rules, and avoiding allocating an aux struct unless we have more than one target process. For process groups, collect pid/context data in blocks of 16. Move the audit_signal_info() hook up in check_kill_permission() so we audit attempts where permission is denied.

This finally renames the thread_info field in task structure to stack, so that the assumptions about this field are gone and archs have more freedom about placing the thread_info structure. Nonbroken archs which have a proper thread pointer can do the access to both current thread and task structure via a single pointer. It'll allow for a few more cleanups of the fork code, from which e.g. ia64 could benefit.

由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

This patch provides a debugfs knob to turn kprobes on/off o A new file /debug/kprobes/enabled indicates if kprobes is enabled or not (default enabled) o Echoing 0 to this file will disarm all installed probes o Any new probe registration when disabled will register the probe but not arm it. A message will be printed out in such a case. o When a value 1 is echoed to the file, all probes (including ones registered in the intervening period) will be enabled o Unregistration will happen irrespective of whether probes are globally enabled or not. o Update Documentation/kprobes.txt to reflect these changes. While there also update the doc to make it current. We are also looking at providing sysrq key support to tie to the disabling feature provided by this patch.

由 Simon Horman 提交于
Currently the size of the per-cpu region reserved to save crash notes is set by the per-architecture value MAX_NOTE_BYTES. Which in turn is currently set to 1024 on all supported architectures. While testing ia64 I recently discovered that this value is in fact too small. The particular setup I was using actually needs 1172 bytes. This lead to very tedious failure mode where the tail of one elf note would overwrite the head of another if they ended up being alocated sequentially by kmalloc, which was often the case. It seems to me that a far better approach is to caclculate the size that the area needs to be. This patch does just that. If a simpler stop-gap patch for ia64 to be squeezed into 2.6.21(.X) is needed then this should be as easy as making MAX_NOTE_BYTES larger in arch/asm-ia64/kexec.h. Perhaps 2048 would be a good choice. However, I think that the approach in this patch is a much more robust idea.

This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

Example memory map (from HP sx1000 with VGA enabled): 0x00000 - 0x9FFFF supports only WB (cacheable) access 0xA0000 - 0xBFFFF supports only UC (uncacheable) access 0xC0000 - 0xFFFFF supports only WB (cacheable) access Some versions of X map the entire 0x00000-0xFFFFF area at once. With the example above, this mmap must fail because there's no memory attribute that's safe for the entire area. Prior to this patch, we performed the mmap with a UC mapping. When X accessed the WB memory at 0xC0000, it caused an MCA. The crash can happen when mapping 0xC0000 from either /dev/mem or a /sys/.../legacy_mem file.
