Check the signature on the module against the keys compiled into the kernel or available in a hardware key store. Currently, only RSA keys are supported - though that's easy enough to change, and the signature is expected to contain raw components (so not a PGP or PKCS#7 formatted blob). The signature blob is expected to consist of the following pieces in order: (1) The binary identifier for the key. This is expected to match the SubjectKeyIdentifier from an X.509 certificate. Only X.509 type identifiers are currently supported. (2) The signature data, consisting of a series of MPIs in which each is in the format of a 2-byte BE word sizes followed by the content data. (3) A 12 byte information block of the form: struct module_signature { enum pkey_algo algo : 8; enum pkey_hash_algo hash : 8; enum pkey_id_type id_type : 8; u8 __pad; __be32 id_length; __be32 sig_length; }; The three enums are defined in crypto/public_key.h. 'algo' contains the public-key algorithm identifier (0->DSA, 1->RSA). 'hash' contains the digest algorithm identifier (0->MD4, 1->MD5, 2->SHA1, etc.). 'id_type' contains the public-key identifier type (0->PGP, 1->X.509). '__pad' should be 0. 'id_length' should contain in the binary identifier length in BE form. 'sig_length' should contain in the signature data length in BE form. The lengths are in BE order rather than CPU order to make dealing with cross-compilation easier.

Include a PGP keyring containing the public keys required to perform module verification in the kernel image during build and create a special keyring during boot which is then populated with keys of crypto type holding the public keys found in the PGP keyring. These can be seen by root: [root@andromeda ~]# cat /proc/keys 07ad4ee0 I----- 1 perm 3f010000 0 0 crypto modsign.0: RSA 87b9b3bd [] 15c7f8c3 I----- 1 perm 1f030000 0 0 keyring .module_sign: 1/4 ... It is probably worth permitting root to invalidate these keys, resulting in their removal and preventing further modules from being loaded with that key.

Automatically generate keys for module signing if they're absent so that allyesconfig doesn't break. The builder should consider generating their own key and certificate, however, so that the keys are appropriately named. The private key for the module signer should be placed in signing_key.priv (unencrypted!) and the public key in an X.509 certificate as signing_key.x509. If a transient key is desired for signing the modules, a config file for 'openssl req' can be placed in x509.genkey, looking something like the following: [ req ] default_bits = 4096 distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name prompt = no x509_extensions = myexts [ req_distinguished_name ] O = Magarathea CN = Glacier signing key emailAddress = slartibartfast@magrathea.h2g2 [ myexts ] basicConstraints=critical,CA:FALSE keyUsage=digitalSignature subjectKeyIdentifier=hash authorityKeyIdentifier=hash The build process will use this to configure: openssl req -new -nodes -utf8 -sha1 -days 36500 -batch \ -x509 -config x509.genkey \ -outform DER -out signing_key.x509 \ -keyout signing_key.priv to generate the key. Note that it is required that the X.509 certificate have a subjectKeyIdentifier and an authorityKeyIdentifier. Without those, the certificate will be rejected. These can be used to check the validity of a certificate. Note that 'make distclean' will remove signing_key.{priv,x509} and x509.genkey, whether or not they were generated automatically.

We do a very simple search for a particular string appended to the module (which is cache-hot and about to be SHA'd anyway). There's both a config option and a boot parameter which control whether we accept or fail with unsigned modules and modules that are signed with an unknown key. If module signing is enabled, the kernel will be tainted if a module is loaded that is unsigned or has a signature for which we don't have the key.

The original module-init-tools module loader used a fnctl lock on the .ko file to avoid attempts to simultaneously load a module. Unfortunately, you can't get an exclusive fcntl lock on a read-only fd, making this not work for read-only mounted filesystems. module-init-tools has a hacky sleep-and-loop for this now. It's not that hard to wait in the kernel, and only return -EEXIST once the first module has finished loading (or continue loading the module if the first one failed to initialize for some reason). It's also consistent with what we do for dependent modules which are still loading.

We use resolve_symbol_wait(), which blocks if the module containing the symbol is still loading. However: 1) The module_wq we use is only woken after calling the modules' init function, but there are other failure paths after the module is placed in the linked list where we need to do the same thing. 2) wake_up() only wakes one waiter, and our waitqueue is shared by all modules, so we need to wake them all. 3) wake_up_all() doesn't imply a memory barrier: I feel happier calling it after we've grabbed and dropped the module_mutex, not just after the state assignment.

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela, ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS. Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible. To this end, I've defined three new config bools: (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic mod_arch_specific struct. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are two arches that do this. With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file. Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

busy_worker_rebind_fn() didn't clear WORKER_REBIND if rebinding failed (CPU is down again). This used to be okay because the flag wasn't used for anything else. However, after 25511a47 "workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle workers", WORKER_REBIND is also used to command idle workers to rebind. If not cleared, the worker may confuse the next CPU_UP cycle by having REBIND spuriously set or oops / get stuck by prematurely calling idle_worker_rebind().

This reverts commit 970e1789. Nikolay Ulyanitsky reported thatthe 3.6-rc5 kernel has a 15-20% performance drop on PostgreSQL 9.2 on his machine (running "pgbench"). Borislav Petkov was able to reproduce this, and bisected it to this commit 970e1789 ("sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies' ...") apparently because the new single-idle-buddy model simply doesn't find idle CPU's to reschedule on aggressively enough. Mike Galbraith suspects that it is likely due to the user-mode spinlocks in PostgreSQL not reacting well to preemption, but we don't really know the details - I'll just revert the commit for now. There are hopefully other approaches to improve scheduler scalability without it causing these kinds of downsides.

To simplify both normal and CPU hotplug paths, worker management is prevented while CPU hoplug is in progress. This is achieved by CPU hotplug holding the same exclusion mechanism used by workers to ensure there's only one manager per pool. If someone else seems to be performing the manager role, workers proceed to execute work items. CPU hotplug using the same mechanism can lead to idle worker depletion because all workers could proceed to execute work items while CPU hotplug is in progress and CPU hotplug itself wouldn't actually perform the worker management duty - it doesn't guarantee that there's an idle worker left when it releases management. This idle worker depletion, under extreme circumstances, can break forward-progress guarantee and thus lead to deadlock. This patch fixes the bug by using separate mechanisms for manager exclusion among workers and hotplug exclusion. For manager exclusion, POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS which was restored by the previous patch is used. pool->manager_mutex is now only used for exclusion between the elected manager and CPU hotplug. The elected manager won't proceed without holding pool->manager_mutex. This ensures that the worker which won the manager position can't skip managing while CPU hotplug is in progress. It will block on manager_mutex and perform management after CPU hotplug is complete. Note that hotplug may happen while waiting for manager_mutex. A manager isn't either on idle or busy list and thus the hoplug code can't unbind/rebind it. Make the manager handle its own un/rebinding. tj: Updated comment and description.

This patch restores POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS which was replaced by pool->manager_mutex by 60373152 "workqueue: use mutex for global_cwq manager exclusion". There's a subtle idle worker depletion bug across CPU hotplug events and we need to distinguish an actual manager and CPU hotplug preventing management. POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS will be used for the former and manager_mutex the later. This patch just lays POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS on top of the existing manager_mutex and doesn't introduce any synchronization changes. The next patch will update it. Note that this patch fixes a non-critical anomaly where too_many_workers() may return %true spuriously while CPU hotplug is in progress. While the issue could schedule idle timer spuriously, it didn't trigger any actual misbehavior. tj: Rewrote patch description.

Currently, rebind_workers() and idle_worker_rebind() are two-way interlocked. rebind_workers() waits for idle workers to finish rebinding and rebound idle workers wait for rebind_workers() to finish rebinding busy workers before proceeding. Unfortunately, this isn't enough. The second wait from idle workers is implemented as follows. wait_event(gcwq->rebind_hold, !(worker->flags & WORKER_REBIND)); rebind_workers() clears WORKER_REBIND, wakes up the idle workers and then returns. If CPU hotplug cycle happens again before one of the idle workers finishes the above wait_event(), rebind_workers() will repeat the first part of the handshake - set WORKER_REBIND again and wait for the idle worker to finish rebinding - and this leads to deadlock because the idle worker would be waiting for WORKER_REBIND to clear. This is fixed by adding another interlocking step at the end - rebind_workers() now waits for all the idle workers to finish the above WORKER_REBIND wait before returning. This ensures that all rebinding steps are complete on all idle workers before the next hotplug cycle can happen. This problem was diagnosed by Lai Jiangshan who also posted a patch to fix the issue, upon which this patch is based. This is the minimal fix and further patches are scheduled for the next merge window to simplify the CPU hotplug path.

The compiler may compile the following code into TWO write/modify instructions. worker->flags &= ~WORKER_UNBOUND; worker->flags |= WORKER_REBIND; so the other CPU may temporarily see worker->flags which doesn't have either WORKER_UNBOUND or WORKER_REBIND set and perform local wakeup prematurely. Fix it by using single explicit assignment via ACCESS_ONCE().

Rabik and Paul reported two different issues related to the same few lines of code. Rabik's issue is that the nr_uninterruptible migration code is wrong in that he sees artifacts due to this (Rabik please do expand in more detail). Paul's issue is that this code as it stands relies on us using stop_machine() for unplug, we all would like to remove this assumption so that eventually we can remove this stop_machine() usage altogether. The only reason we'd have to migrate nr_uninterruptible is so that we could use for_each_online_cpu() loops in favour of for_each_possible_cpu() loops, however since nr_uninterruptible() is the only such loop and its using possible lets not bother at all. The problem Rabik sees is (probably) caused by the fact that by migrating nr_uninterruptible we screw rq->calc_load_active for both rqs involved. So don't bother with fancy migration schemes (meaning we now have to keep using for_each_possible_cpu()) and instead fold any nr_active delta after we migrate all tasks away to make sure we don't have any skewed nr_active accounting.

It seems commit 4a9d4b02 (switch fput to task_work_add) reintroduced the problem addressed in commit 944be0b2 (close_files(): add scheduling point) If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets) is killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger a soft lockup.

If update_wall_time() is called and the current offset isn't large enough to accumulate, avoid re-calling timekeeping_adjust which may change the clock freq and can cause 1ns inconsistencies with CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE/CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE.

Andreas Schwab noticed that the 1 << tk->shift could overflow if the shift value was greater than 30, since 1 would be a 32bit long on 32bit architectures. This issue was introduced by 1e75fa8b (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec) Use 1ULL instead to ensure we don't overflow on the shift.

Andreas noticed problems with resume on specific hardware after commit 1e75fa8b (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec) combined with commit b44d50dc (time: Fix casting issue in tk_set_xtime and tk_xtime_add) After some digging I realized we aren't normalizing the timekeeper after the add. Add the missing normalize call.

This patch fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843640 If mmap_region()->uprobe_mmap() fails, unmap_and_free_vma path does unmap_region() but does not remove the soon-to-be-freed vma from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how William noticed this bug. Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register(). For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register() succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail in this case. dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason, fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first. And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error code from uprobe_mmap().

New helper: current_thread_info(). Allows to do a bunch of odd syscalls in C. While we are at it, there had never been a reason to do osf_getpriority() in assembler. We also get "namespace"-aware (read: consistent with getuid(2), etc.) behaviour from getx?id() syscalls now.

syscall_get_nr can return -1 in the case that the task is not executing a system call. This patch fixes perf_syscall_{enter,exit} to check that the syscall number is valid before using it as an index into a bitmap.

Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the year 2262). Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are injected via adjtimex. So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid negative value or one that overflows ktime_t. Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

Drop the initial reference by fsnotify_init_mark early instead of audit_tree_freeing_mark() at destroy time. In the cases we destroy the mark before we drop the initial reference we need to get rid of the get_mark that balances the put_mark in audit_tree_freeing_mark().

Refcounting of fsnotify_mark in audit tree is broken. E.g: refcount create_chunk alloc_chunk 1 fsnotify_add_mark 2 untag_chunk fsnotify_get_mark 3 fsnotify_destroy_mark audit_tree_freeing_mark 2 fsnotify_put_mark 1 fsnotify_put_mark 0 via destroy_list fsnotify_mark_destroy -1 This was reported by various people as triggering Oops when stopping auditd. We could just remove the put_mark from audit_tree_freeing_mark() but that would break freeing via inode destruction. So this patch simply omits a put_mark after calling destroy_mark or adds a get_mark before. The additional get_mark is necessary where there's no other put_mark after fsnotify_destroy_mark() since it assumes that the caller is holding a reference (or the inode is keeping the mark pinned, not the case here AFAICS).
