由 Paul E. McKenney 提交于
The Linux kernel has traditionally required that an UNLOCK+LOCK pair act as a full memory barrier when either (1) that UNLOCK+LOCK pair was executed by the same CPU or task, or (2) the same lock variable was used for the UNLOCK and LOCK. It now seems likely that very few places in the kernel rely on this full-memory-barrier semantic, and with the advent of queued locks, providing this semantic either requires complex reasoning, or for some architectures, added overhead. This commit therefore adds a smp_mb__after_unlock_lock(), which may be placed after a LOCK primitive to restore the full-memory-barrier semantic. All definitions are currently no-ops, but will be upgraded for some architectures when queued locks arrive. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead of passing the global group ID to the various functions that send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most families that's just 0 because the only have one group. This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new field for the mcast group ID offset to the family. At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now check that a family only uses a group it owns.

As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops() a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the macro, this is a little safer. The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

Currently pskb_trim_rcsum() just balks on CHECKSUM_COMPLETE packets and remarks them as CHECKSUM_NONE, forcing a software checksum validation later. We have all of the mechanics available to fixup the skb->csum value, even for complicated fragmented packets, via the helpers skb_checksum() and csum_sub(). So just use them.

This patch enhances the type safety for the kfifo API. It is now safe to put const data into a non const FIFO and the API will now generate a compiler warning when reading from the fifo where the destination address is pointing to a const variable. As a side effect the kfifo_put() does now expect the value of an element instead a pointer to the element. This was suggested Russell King. It make the handling of the kfifo_put easier since there is no need to create a helper variable for getting the address of a pointer or to pass integers of different sizes. IMHO the API break is okay, since there are currently only six users of kfifo_put(). The code is also cleaner by kicking out the "if (0)" expressions.

For the casual device driver writer, it is hard to remember when to use init_completion (to init a completion structure) or INIT_COMPLETION (to *reinit* a completion structure). Furthermore, while all other completion functions exepct a pointer as a parameter, INIT_COMPLETION does not. To make it easier to remember which function to use and to make code more readable, introduce a new inline function with the proper name and consistent argument type.

If split page table lock is in use, we embed the lock into struct page of table's page. We have to disable split lock, if spinlock_t is too big be to be embedded, like when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC enabled. This patch add support for dynamic allocation of split page table lock if we can't embed it to struct page. page->ptl is unsigned long now and we use it as spinlock_t if sizeof(spinlock_t) <= sizeof(long), otherwise it's pointer to spinlock_t. The spinlock_t allocated in pgtable_page_ctor() for PTE table and in pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() for PMD table. All other helpers converted to support dynamically allocated page->ptl.

The basic idea is the same as with PTE level: the lock is embedded into struct page of table's page. We can't use mm->pmd_huge_pte to store pgtables for THP, since we don't take mm->page_table_lock anymore. Let's reuse page->lru of table's page for that. pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() returns true, if initialization is successful and false otherwise. Current implementation never fails, but assumption that constructor can fail will help to port it to -rt where spinlock_t is rather huge and cannot be embedded into struct page -- dynamic allocation is required.

On a 68k platform a couple of interrupts are demultiplexed and "polled" from a top level interrupt. Unfortunately there is no way to determine which of the sub interrupts raised the top level interrupt, so all of the demultiplexed interrupt handlers need to be invoked. Given a high enough frequency this can trigger the spurious interrupt detection mechanism, if one of the demultiplex interrupts returns IRQ_NONE continuously. But this is a false positive as the polling causes this behaviour and not buggy hardware/software. Introduce IRQ_POLLED which can be set at interrupt chip setup time via irq_set_status_flags(). The flag excludes the interrupt from the spurious detector and from all core polling activities.

This reverts commits f3462aa9 (Kbuild: Handle longer symbols in kallsyms.c) and eea0e9cb (kbuild: Increase kallsyms max symbol length) except for the added overflow check. The reason is a regression caused by increasing the buffer: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=138387700415675.

On 64 bit systems the test for negative message sizes is bogus as the size, which may be positive when evaluated as a long, will get truncated to an int when passed to load_msg(). So a long might very well contain a positive value but when truncated to an int it would become negative. That in combination with a small negative value of msg_ctlmax (which will be promoted to an unsigned type for the comparison against msgsz, making it a big positive value and therefore make it pass the check) will lead to two problems: 1/ The kmalloc() call in alloc_msg() will allocate a too small buffer as the addition of alen is effectively a subtraction. 2/ The copy_from_user() call in load_msg() will first overflow the buffer with userland data and then, when the userland access generates an access violation, the fixup handler copy_user_handle_tail() will try to fill the remainder with zeros -- roughly 4GB. That almost instantly results in a system crash or reset. ,-[ Reproducer (needs to be run as root) ]-- | #include <sys/stat.h> | #include <sys/msg.h> | #include <unistd.h> | #include <fcntl.h> | | int main(void) { | long msg = 1; | int fd; | | fd = open("/proc/sys/kernel/msgmax", O_WRONLY); | write(fd, "-1", 2); | close(fd); | | msgsnd(0, &msg, 0xfffffff0, IPC_NOWAIT); | | return 0; | } '--- Fix the issue by preventing msgsz from getting truncated by consistently using size_t for the message length. This way the size checks in do_msgsnd() could still be passed with a negative value for msg_ctlmax but we would fail on the buffer allocation in that case and error out. Also change the type of m_ts from int to size_t to avoid similar nastiness in other code paths -- it is used in similar constructs, i.e. signed vs. unsigned checks. It should never become negative under normal circumstances, though. Setting msg_ctlmax to a negative value is an odd configuration and should be prevented. As that might break existing userland, it will be handled in a separate commit so it could easily be reverted and reworked without reintroducing the above described bug. Hardening mechanisms for user copy operations would have catched that bug early -- e.g. checking slab object sizes on user copy operations as the usercopy feature of the PaX patch does. Or, for that matter, detect the long vs. int sign change due to truncation, as the size overflow plugin of the very same patch does.

The iterator rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() relies on pointer underflow behavior when testing for loop termination. In particular it expects that &rb_entry(NULL, type, field)->field is NULL. But the result of this expression is not defined by a C standard and some gcc versions (e.g. 4.3.4) assume the above expression can never be equal to NULL. The net result is an oops because the iteration is not properly terminated. Fix the problem by modifying the iterator to avoid pointer underflows.

The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean. Most users of the function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0). The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a protected state. Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two places fixed in this patch. Wrong logic: if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ } or if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ } Correct logic: if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ } Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to that user. (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.) The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(), which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

Add two trivial helpers list_next_entry() and list_prev_entry(), they can have a lot of users including list.h itself.
