      CRED: Fix a race in creds_are_invalid() in credentials debugging · e134d200
      由 David Howells 提交于 
      creds_are_invalid() reads both cred->usage and cred->subscribers and then
compares them to make sure the number of processes subscribed to a cred struct
never exceeds the refcount of that cred struct.

The problem is that this can cause a race with both copy_creds() and
exit_creds() as the two counters, whilst they are of atomic_t type, are only
atomic with respect to themselves, and not atomic with respect to each other.

This means that if creds_are_invalid() can read the values on one CPU whilst
they're being modified on another CPU, and so can observe an evolving state in
which the subscribers count now is greater than the usage count a moment
before.

Switching the order in which the counts are read cannot help, so the thing to
do is to remove that particular check.

I had considered rechecking the values to see if they're in flux if the test
fails, but I can't guarantee they won't appear the same, even if they've
changed several times in the meantime.

Note that this can only happen if CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS is enabled.

The problem is only likely to occur with multithreaded programs, and can be
tested by the tst-eintr1 program from glibc's "make check".  The symptoms look
like:

	CRED: Invalid credentials
	CRED: At include/linux/cred.h:240
	CRED: Specified credentials: ffff88003dda5878 [real][eff]
	CRED: ->magic=43736564, put_addr=(null)
	CRED: ->usage=766, subscr=766
	CRED: ->*uid = { 0,0,0,0 }
	CRED: ->*gid = { 0,0,0,0 }
	CRED: ->security is ffff88003d72f538
	CRED: ->security {359, 359}
	------------[ cut here ]------------
	kernel BUG at kernel/cred.c:850!
	...
	RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81049889>]  [<ffffffff81049889>] __invalid_creds+0x4e/0x52
	...
	Call Trace:
	 [<ffffffff8104a37b>] copy_creds+0x6b/0x23f

Note the ->usage=766 and subscr=766.  The values appear the same because
they've been re-read since the check was made.

      CRED: Fix double free in prepare_usermodehelper_creds() error handling · eff30363
      由 David Howells 提交于 
      Patch 570b8fb5:

	Author: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>
	Date:   Tue Mar 30 00:04:00 2010 +0100
	Subject: CRED: Fix memory leak in error handling

attempts to fix a memory leak in the error handling by making the offending
return statement into a jump down to the bottom of the function where a
kfree(tgcred) is inserted.

This is, however, incorrect, as it does a kfree() after doing put_cred() if
security_prepare_creds() fails.  That will result in a double free if 'error'
is jumped to as put_cred() will also attempt to free the new tgcred record by
virtue of it being pointed to by the new cred record.

      sched: Fix sched_getaffinity() · 84fba5ec
      由 Anton Blanchard 提交于 
      taskset on 2.6.34-rc3 fails on one of my ppc64 test boxes with
the following error:

  sched_getaffinity(0, 16, 0x10029650030) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

This box has 128 threads and 16 bytes is enough to cover it.

Commit cd3d8031 (sched:
sched_getaffinity(): Allow less than NR_CPUS length) is
comparing this 16 bytes agains nr_cpu_ids.

Fix it by comparing nr_cpu_ids to the number of bits in the
cpumask we pass in.

      Fix up possibly racy module refcounting · 5fbfb18d
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Module refcounting is implemented with a per-cpu counter for speed.
However there is a race when tallying the counter where a reference may
be taken by one CPU and released by another.  Reference count summation
may then see the decrement without having seen the previous increment,
leading to lower than expected count.  A module which never has its
actual reference drop below 1 may return a reference count of 0 due to
this race.

Module removal generally runs under stop_machine, which prevents this
race causing bugs due to removal of in-use modules.  However there are
other real bugs in module.c code and driver code (module_refcount is
exported) where the callers do not run under stop_machine.

Fix this by maintaining running per-cpu counters for the number of
module refcount increments and the number of refcount decrements.  The
increments are tallied after the decrements, so any decrement seen will
always have its corresponding increment counted.  The final refcount is
the difference of the total increments and decrements, preventing a
low-refcount from being returned.

      audit: preface audit printk with audit · 449cedf0
      由 Eric Paris 提交于 
      There have been a number of reports of people seeing the message:
"name_count maxed, losing inode data: dev=00:05, inode=3185"
in dmesg.  These usually lead to people reporting problems to the filesystem
group who are in turn clueless what they mean.

Eventually someone finds me and I explain what is going on and that
these come from the audit system.  The basics of the problem is that the
audit subsystem never expects a single syscall to 'interact' (for some
wish washy meaning of interact) with more than 20 inodes.  But in fact
some operations like loading kernel modules can cause changes to lots of
inodes in debugfs.

There are a couple real fixes being bandied about including removing the
fixed compile time limit of 20 or not auditing changes in debugfs (or
both) but neither are small and obvious so I am not sending them for
immediate inclusion (I hope Al forwards a real solution next devel
window).

In the meantime this patch simply adds 'audit' to the beginning of the
crap message so if a user sees it, they come blame me first and we can
talk about what it means and make sure we understand all of the reasons
it can happen and make sure this gets solved correctly in the long run.

      perf: Use hot regs with software sched switch/migrate events · e49a5bd3
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      Scheduler's task migration events don't work because they always
pass NULL regs perf_sw_event(). The event hence gets filtered
in perf_swevent_add().

Scheduler's context switches events use task_pt_regs() to get
the context when the event occured which is a wrong thing to
do as this won't give us the place in the kernel where we went
to sleep but the place where we left userspace. The result is
even more wrong if we switch from a kernel thread.

Use the hot regs snapshot for both events as they belong to the
non-interrupt/exception based events family. Unlike page faults
or so that provide the regs matching the exact origin of the event,
we need to save the current context.

This makes the task migration event working and fix the context
switch callchains and origin ip.

Example: perf record -a -e cs

      perf: Correctly align perf event tracing buffer · eb1e7961
      由 Frederic Weisbecker 提交于 
      The trace event buffer used by perf to record raw sample events
is typed as an array of char and may then not be aligned to 8
by alloc_percpu().

But we need it to be aligned to 8 in sparc64 because we cast
this buffer into a random structure type built by the TRACE_EVENT()
macro to store the traces. So if a random 64 bits field is accessed
inside, it may be not under an expected good alignment.

Use an array of long instead to force the appropriate alignment, and
perform a compile time check to ensure the size in byte of the buffer
is a multiple of sizeof(long) so that its actual size doesn't get
shrinked under us.

This fixes unaligned accesses reported while using perf lock
in sparc 64.

      genirq: Force MSI irq handlers to run with interrupts disabled · 753649db
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      Network folks reported that directing all MSI-X vectors of their multi
queue NICs to a single core can cause interrupt stack overflows when
enough interrupts fire at the same time.

This is caused by the fact that we run interrupt handlers by default
with interrupts enabled unless the driver reuqests the interrupt with
the IRQF_DISABLED set. The NIC handlers do not set this flag, so
simultaneous interrupts can nest unlimited and cause the stack
overflow.

The only safe counter measure is to run the interrupt handlers with
interrupts disabled. We can't switch to this mode in general right
now, but it is safe to do so for MSI interrupts.

Force IRQF_DISABLED for MSI interrupt handlers.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
