      uml: kill processes instead of panicing kernel · 3e6f2ac4
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      UML was panicing in the case of failures of libc calls which shouldn't happen.
       This is an overreaction since a failure from libc doesn't normally mean that
      kernel data structures are in an unknown state.  Instead, the current process
      should just be killed if there is no way to recover.
      
      The case that prompted this was a failure of PTRACE_SETREGS restoring the same
      state that was read by PTRACE_GETREGS.  It appears that when a process tries
      to load a bogus value into a segment register, it segfaults (as expected) and
      the value is actually loaded and is seen by PTRACE_GETREGS (not expected).
      
      This case is fixed by forcing a fatal SIGSEGV on the process so that it
      immediately dies.  fatal_sigsegv was added for this purpose.  It was declared
      as noreturn, so in order to pursuade gcc that it actually does not return, I
      added a call to os_dump_core (and declared it noreturn) so that I get a core
      file if somehow the process survives.
      
      All other calls in arch/um/os-Linux/skas/process.c got the same treatment,
      with failures causing the process to die instead of a kernel panic, with some
      exceptions.
      
      userspace_tramp exits with status 1 if anything goes wrong there.  That will
      cause start_userspace to return an error.  copy_context_skas0 and
      map_stub_pages also now return errors instead of panicing.  Callers of thes
      functions were changed to check for errors and do something appropriate.
      Usually that's to return an error to their callers.
      check_skas3_ptrace_faultinfo just exits since that's too early to do anything
      else.
      
      save_registers, restore_registers, and init_registers now return status
      instead of panicing on failure, with their callers doing something
      appropriate.
      
      There were also duplicate declarations of save_registers and restore_registers
      in os.h - these are gone.
      
      I noticed and fixed up some whitespace damage.

      uml: fix stub address calculations · 54ae36f2
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      The calculation of CONFIG_STUB_CODE and CONFIG_STUB_DATA didn't take into
      account anything but 3G/1G and 2G/2G, leaving the other vmsplits out in the
      cold.
      
      I'd rather not duplicate the four known host vmsplit cases for each of these
      symbols.  I'd also like to calculate them based on the highest userspace
      address.
      
      The Kconfig language seems not to allow calculation of hex constants, so I
      moved this to as-layout.h.  CONFIG_STUB_CODE, CONFIG_STUB_DATA, and
      CONFIG_STUB_START are now gone.  In their place are STUB_CODE, STUB_DATA, and
      STUB_START in as-layout.h.
      
      i386 and x86_64 seem to differ as to whether an unadorned constant is an int
      or a long, so I cast them to unsigned long so they can be printed
      consistently.  However, they are also used in stub.S, where C types don't work
      so well.  So, there are ASM_ versions of these constants for use in stub.S.  I
      also ifdef-ed the non-asm-friendly portion of as-layout.h.
      
      With this in place, most of the rest of this patch is changing CONFIG_STUB_*
      to STUB_*, except in stub.S, where they are changed to ASM_STUB_*.
      
      defconfig has the old symbols deleted.
      
      I also print these addresses out in case there is any problem mapping them on
      the host.
      
      The two stub.S files had some trailing whitespace, so that is cleaned up here.

      uml: more __init annotations · 97a1fcbb
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      2.6.23-rc1 turned up another batch of references from non-__init code to
      __init code.  In most cases, these were missing __init annotations.  In one
      case (os_drop_memory), the annotation was present but wrong.
      
      init_maps is __init, but for some reason was being very careful about the
      mechanism by which it allocated memory, checking whether it was OK to use
      kmalloc (at this point in the boot, it definitely isn't) and using either
      alloc_bootmem_low_pages or kmalloc/vmalloc.  So, the kmalloc/vmalloc code is

      uml: iRQ stacks · c14b8494
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      Add a separate IRQ stack.  This differs from i386 in having the entire
      interrupt run on a separate stack rather than starting on the normal kernel
      stack and switching over once some preparation has been done.  The underlying
      mechanism, is of course, sigaltstack.
      
      Another difference is that interrupts that happen in userspace are handled on
      the normal kernel stack.  These cause a wait wakeup instead of a signal
      delivery so there is no point in trying to switch stacks for these.  There's
      no other stuff on the stack, so there is no extra stack consumption.
      
      This quirk makes it possible to have the entire interrupt run on a separate
      stack - process preemption (and calls to schedule()) happens on a normal
      kernel stack.  If we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT, this will need to be rethought.
      
      The IRQ stack for CPU 0 is declared in the same way as the initial kernel
      stack.  IRQ stacks for other CPUs will be allocated dynamically.
      
      An extra field was added to the thread_info structure.  When the active
      thread_info is copied to the IRQ stack, the real_thread field points back to
      the original stack.  This makes it easy to tell where to copy the thread_info
      struct back to when the interrupt is finished.  It also serves as a marker of
      a nested interrupt.  It is NULL for the first interrupt on the stack, and
      non-NULL for any nested interrupts.
      
      Care is taken to behave correctly if a second interrupt comes in when the
      thread_info structure is being set up or taken down.  I could just disable
      interrupts here, but I don't feel like giving up any of the performance gained
      by not flipping signals on and off.
      
      If an interrupt comes in during these critical periods, the handler can't run
      because it has no idea what shape the stack is in.  So, it sets a bit for its
      signal in a global mask and returns.  The outer handler will deal with this
      signal itself.
      
      Atomicity is had with xchg.  A nested interrupt that needs to bail out will
      xchg its signal mask into pending_mask and repeat in case yet another
      interrupt hit at the same time, until the mask stabilizes.
      
      The outermost interrupt will set up the thread_info and xchg a zero into
      pending_mask when it is done.  At this point, nested interrupts will look at
      ->real_thread and see that no setup needs to be done.  They can just continue
      normally.
      
      Similar care needs to be taken when exiting the outer handler.  If another
      interrupt comes in while it is copying the thread_info, it will drop a bit
      into pending_mask.  The outer handler will check this and if it is non-zero,
      will loop, set up the stack again, and handle the interrupt.

      [PATCH] uml: thread creation tidying · 3c917350
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      fork on UML has always somewhat subtle.  The underlying cause has been the
      need to initialize a stack for the new process.  The only portable way to
      initialize a new stack is to set it as the alternate signal stack and take a
      signal.  The signal handler does whatever initialization is needed and jumps
      back to the original stack, where the fork processing is finished.  The basic
      context switching mechanism is a jmp_buf for each process.  You switch to a
      new process by longjmping to its jmp_buf.
      
      Now that UML has its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp, and I can poke
      around inside a jmp_buf without fear that libc will change the structure, a
      much simpler mechanism is possible.  The jmpbuf can simply be initialized by
      hand.
      
      This eliminates -
      	the need to set up and remove the alternate signal stack
      	sending and handling a signal
      	the signal blocking needed around the stack switching, since
      there is no stack switching
      	setting up the jmp_buf needed to jump back to the original
      stack after the new one is set up
      
      In addition, since jmp_buf is now defined by UML, and not by libc, it can be
      embedded in the thread struct.  This makes it unnecessary to have it exist on
      the stack, where it used to be.  It also simplifies interfaces, since the
      switch jmp_buf used to be a void * inside the thread struct, and functions
      which took it as an argument needed to define a jmp_buf variable and assign it
      from the void *.

      Implement sys_[gs]et_thread_area and the corresponding ptrace operations for
      UML.  This is the main chunk, additional parts follow.  This implementation is
      now well tested and has run reliably for some time, and we've understood all
      the previously existing problems.
      
      Their implementation saves the new GDT content and then forwards the call to
      the host when appropriate, i.e.  immediately when the target process is
      running or on context switch otherwise (i.e.  on fork and on ptrace() calls).
      
      In SKAS mode, we must switch registers on each context switch (because SKAS
      does not switches tls_array together with current->mm).
      
      Also, added get_cpu() locking; this has been done for SKAS mode, since TT does
      not need it (it does not use smp_processor_id()).

      [PATCH] uml: clean arch_switch usage · 972410b0
      Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 提交于
      Call arch_switch also in switch_to_skas, even if it's, for now, a no-op for
      that case (and mark this in the comment); this will change soon.
      
      Also, arch_switch for TT mode is actually useless when the PT proxy (a
      complicate debugging instrumentation for TT mode) is not enabled.  In fact, it
      only calls update_debugregs, which checks debugregs_seq against seq (to check
      if the registers are up-to-date - seq here means a "version number" of the
      registers).
      
      If the ptrace proxy is not enabled, debugregs_seq always stays 0 and
      update_debugregs will be a no-op.  So, optimize this out (the compiler can't
      do it).
      
      Also, I've been disappointed by the fact that it would make a lot of sense if,
      after calling a successful
      update_debugregs(current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq),
      current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq were updated with the new debugregs_seq.
      But this is not done.  Is this a bug or a feature?  For all purposes, it seems
      a bug (otherwise the whole mechanism does not make sense, which is also a
      possibility to check), which causes some performance only problems (not
      correctness), since we write_debugregs when not needed.
      
      Also, as suggested by Jeff, remove a redundant enabling of SIGVTALRM,
      comprised in the subsequent local_irq_enable().  I'm just a bit dubious if
      ordering matters there...

      [PATCH] uml: skas0 - separate kernel address space on stock hosts · d67b569f
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      UML has had two modes of operation - an insecure, slow mode (tt mode) in
      which the kernel is mapped into every process address space which requires
      no host kernel modifications, and a secure, faster mode (skas mode) in
      which the UML kernel is in a separate host address space, which requires a
      patch to the host kernel.
      
      This patch implements something very close to skas mode for hosts which
      don't support skas - I'm calling this skas0.  It provides the security of
      the skas host patch, and some of the performance gains.
      
      The two main things that are provided by the skas patch, /proc/mm and
      PTRACE_FAULTINFO, are implemented in a way that require no host patch.
      
      For the remote address space changing stuff (mmap, munmap, and mprotect),
      we set aside two pages in the process above its stack, one of which
      contains a little bit of code which can call mmap et al.
      
      To update the address space, the system call information (system call
      number and arguments) are written to the stub page above the code.  The
      %esp is set to the beginning of the data, the %eip is set the the start of
      the stub, and it repeatedly pops the information into its registers and
      makes the system call until it sees a system call number of zero.  This is
      to amortize the cost of the context switch across multiple address space
      updates.
      
      When the updates are done, it SIGSTOPs itself, and the kernel process
      continues what it was doing.
      
      For a PTRACE_FAULTINFO replacement, we set up a SIGSEGV handler in the
      child, and let it handle segfaults rather than nullifying them.  The
      handler is in the same page as the mmap stub.  The second page is used as
      the stack.  The handler reads cr2 and err from the sigcontext, sticks them
      at the base of the stack in a faultinfo struct, and SIGSTOPs itself.  The
      kernel then reads the faultinfo and handles the fault.
      
      A complication on x86_64 is that this involves resetting the registers to
      the segfault values when the process is inside the kill system call.  This
      breaks on x86_64 because %rcx will contain %rip because you tell SYSRET
      where to return to by putting the value in %rcx.  So, this corrupts $rcx on
      return from the segfault.  To work around this, I added an
      arch_finish_segv, which on x86 does nothing, but which on x86_64 ptraces
      the child back through the sigreturn.  This causes %rcx to be restored by
      sigreturn and avoids the corruption.  Ultimately, I think I will replace
      this with the trick of having it send itself a blocked signal which will be
      unblocked by the sigreturn.  This will allow it to be stopped just after
      the sigreturn, and PTRACE_SYSCALLed without all the back-and-forth of
      PTRACE_SYSCALLing it through sigreturn.
      
      This runs on a stock host, so theoretically (and hopefully), tt mode isn't
      needed any more.  We need to make sure that this is better in every way
      than tt mode, though.  I'm concerned about the speed of address space
      updates and page fault handling, since they involve extra round-trips to
      the child.  We can amortize the round-trip cost for large address space
      updates by writing all of the operations to the data page and having the
      child execute them all at the same time.  This will help fork and exec, but
      not page faults, since they involve only one page.
      
      I can't think of any way to help page faults, except to add something like
      PTRACE_FAULTINFO to the host.  There is PTRACE_SIGINFO, but UML doesn't use
      siginfo for SIGSEGV (or anything else) because there isn't enough
      information in the siginfo struct to handle page faults (the faulting
      operation type is missing).  Adding that would make PTRACE_SIGINFO a usable
      equivalent to PTRACE_FAULTINFO.
      
      As for the code itself:
      
      - The system call stub is in arch/um/kernel/sys-$(SUBARCH)/stub.S.  It is
        put in its own section of the binary along with stub_segv_handler in
        arch/um/kernel/skas/process.c.  This is manipulated with run_syscall_stub
        in arch/um/kernel/skas/mem_user.c.  syscall_stub will execute any system
        call at all, but it's only used for mmap, munmap, and mprotect.
      
      - The x86_64 stub calls sigreturn by hand rather than allowing the normal
        sigreturn to happen, because the normal sigreturn is a SA_RESTORER in
        UML's address space provided by libc.  Needless to say, this is not
        available in the child's address space.  Also, it does a couple of odd
        pops before that which restore the stack to the state it was in at the
        time the signal handler was called.
      
      - There is a new field in the arch mmu_context, which is now a union.
        This is the pid to be manipulated rather than the /proc/mm file
        descriptor.  Code which deals with this now checks proc_mm to see whether
        it should use the usual skas code or the new code.
      
      - userspace_tramp is now used to create a new host process for every UML
        process, rather than one per UML processor.  It checks proc_mm and
        ptrace_faultinfo to decide whether to map in the pages above its stack.
      
      - start_userspace now makes CLONE_VM conditional on proc_mm since we need
        separate address spaces now.
      
      - switch_mm_skas now just sets userspace_pid[0] to the new pid rather
        than PTRACE_SWITCH_MM.  There is an addition to userspace which updates
        its idea of the pid being manipulated each time around the loop.  This is
        important on exec, when the pid will change underneath userspace().
      
      - The stub page has a pte, but it can't be mapped in using tlb_flush
        because it is part of tlb_flush.  This is why it's required for it to be
        mapped in by userspace_tramp.
      
      Other random things:
      
      - The stub section in uml.lds.S is page aligned.  This page is written
        out to the backing vm file in setup_physmem because it is mapped from
        there into user processes.
      
      - There's some confusion with TASK_SIZE now that there are a couple of
        extra pages that the process can't use.  TASK_SIZE is considered by the
        elf code to be the usable process memory, which is reasonable, so it is
        decreased by two pages.  This confuses the definition of
        USER_PGDS_IN_LAST_PML4, making it too small because of the rounding down
        of the uneven division.  So we round it to the nearest PGDIR_SIZE rather
        than the lower one.
      
      - I added a missing PT_SYSCALL_ARG6_OFFSET macro.
      
      - um_mmu.h was made into a userspace-usable file.
      
      - proc_mm and ptrace_faultinfo are globals which say whether the host
        supports these features.
      
      - There is a bad interaction between the mm.nr_ptes check at the end of
        exit_mmap, stack randomization, and skas0.  exit_mmap will stop freeing
        pages at the PGDIR_SIZE boundary after the last vma.  If the stack isn't
        on the last page table page, the last pte page won't be freed, as it
        should be since the stub ptes are there, and exit_mmap will BUG because
        there is an unfreed page.  To get around this, TASK_SIZE is set to the
        next lowest PGDIR_SIZE boundary and mm->nr_ptes is decremented after the
        calls to init_stub_pte.  This ensures that we know the process stack (and
        all other process mappings) will be below the top page table page, and
        thus we know that mm->nr_ptes will be one too many, and can be
        decremented.
      
      Things that need fixing:
      
      - We may need better assurrences that the stub code is PIC.
      
      - The stub pte is set up in init_new_context_skas.
      
      - alloc_pgdir is probably the right place.

      [PATCH] uml: fix strace -f · 501cb02b
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      It turns out that we need to check for pending signals when a newly forked
      process is run for the first time.  With strace -f, strace needs to know about
      the forked process before it gets going.  If it doesn't, then it ptraces some
      bogus values into its registers, and the process segfaults.  So, I added calls
      to interrupt_end, which does that, plus checks for reschedules.  There
      shouldn't be any of those, but x86 does the same thing, so I'm copying that
      behavior to be safe.

      [PATCH] uml: Fix process exit race · 0f7e663d
      Bodo Stroesser 提交于
      tt-mode closes switch_pipes in exit_thread_tt and kills processes in
      switch_to_tt, if the exit_state is EXIT_DEAD or EXIT_ZOMBIE.
      
      In very rare cases the exiting process can be scheduled out after having set
      exit_state and closed switch_pipes (from release_task it calls proc_pid_flush,
      which might sleep).  If this process is to be restarted, UML failes in
      switch_to_tt with:
      
         write of switch_pipe failed, err = 9
      
      We fix this by closing switch_pipes not in exit_thread_tt, but later in
      release_thread_tt.  Additionally, we set switch_pipe[0] = 0 after closing.
      switch_to_tt must not kill "from" process depending on its exit_state, but
      must kill it after release_thread was processed only, so it examines
      switch_pipe[0] for its decision.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
