In a previous commit we switched from a d_alloc_name() + d_lookup() combination to setup a new dentry and find potential duplicates to the more idiomatic lookup_one_len(). As far as I understand, this also means we need to switch from d_add() to d_instantiate() since lookup_one_len() will create a new dentry when it doesn't find an existing one and add the new dentry to the hash queues. So we only need to call d_instantiate() to connect the dentry to the inode and turn it into a positive dentry. If we were to use d_add() we sure see stack traces like the following indicating that adding the same dentry twice over the same inode: [ 744.441889] CPU: 4 PID: 2849 Comm: landscape-sysin Not tainted 5.0.0-rc1-brauner-binderfs #243 [ 744.441889] Hardware name: Dell DCS XS24-SC2 /XS24-SC2 , BIOS S59_3C20 04/07/2011 [ 744.441889] RIP: 0010:__d_lookup_rcu+0x76/0x190 [ 744.441889] Code: 89 75 c0 49 c1 e9 20 49 89 fd 45 89 ce 41 83 e6 07 42 8d 04 f5 00 00 00 00 89 45 c8 eb 0c 48 8b 1b 48 85 db 0f 84 81 00 00 00 <44> 8b 63 fc 4c 3b 6b 10 75 ea 48 83 7b 08 00 74 e3 41 83 e4 fe 41 [ 744.441889] RSP: 0018:ffffb8c984e27ad0 EFLAGS: 00000282 ORIG_RAX: ffffffffffffff13 [ 744.441889] RAX: 0000000000000038 RBX: ffff9407ef770c08 RCX: ffffb8c980011000 [ 744.441889] RDX: ffffb8c984e27b54 RSI: ffffb8c984e27ce0 RDI: ffff9407e6689600 [ 744.441889] RBP: ffffb8c984e27b28 R08: ffffb8c984e27ba4 R09: 0000000000000007 [ 744.441889] R10: ffff9407e5c4f05c R11: 973f3eb9d84a94e5 R12: 0000000000000002 [ 744.441889] R13: ffff9407e6689600 R14: 0000000000000007 R15: 00000007bfef7a13 [ 744.441889] FS: 00007f0db13bb740(0000) GS:ffff9407f3b00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 744.441889] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 744.441889] CR2: 00007f0dacc51024 CR3: 000000032961a000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 [ 744.441889] Call Trace: [ 744.441889] lookup_fast+0x53/0x300 [ 744.441889] walk_component+0x49/0x350 [ 744.441889] ? inode_permission+0x63/0x1a0 [ 744.441889] link_path_walk.part.33+0x1bc/0x5a0 [ 744.441889] ? path_init+0x190/0x310 [ 744.441889] path_lookupat+0x95/0x210 [ 744.441889] filename_lookup+0xb6/0x190 [ 744.441889] ? __check_object_size+0xb8/0x1b0 [ 744.441889] ? strncpy_from_user+0x50/0x1a0 [ 744.441889] user_path_at_empty+0x36/0x40 [ 744.441889] ? user_path_at_empty+0x36/0x40 [ 744.441889] vfs_statx+0x76/0xe0 [ 744.441889] __do_sys_newstat+0x3d/0x70 [ 744.441889] __x64_sys_newstat+0x16/0x20 [ 744.441889] do_syscall_64+0x5a/0x120 [ 744.441889] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [ 744.441889] RIP: 0033:0x7f0db0ec2775 [ 744.441889] Code: 00 00 00 75 05 48 83 c4 18 c3 e8 26 55 02 00 66 0f 1f 44 00 00 83 ff 01 48 89 f0 77 30 48 89 c7 48 89 d6 b8 04 00 00 00 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 77 03 f3 c3 90 48 8b 15 e1 b6 2d 00 f7 d8 64 89 [ 744.441889] RSP: 002b:00007ffc36bc9388 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000004 [ 744.441889] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007ffc36bc9300 RCX: 00007f0db0ec2775 [ 744.441889] RDX: 00007ffc36bc9400 RSI: 00007ffc36bc9400 RDI: 00007f0dad26f050 [ 744.441889] RBP: 0000000000c0bc60 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000001 [ 744.441889] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 00007ffc36bc9400 [ 744.441889] R13: 0000000000000001 R14: 00000000ffffff9c R15: 0000000000c0bc60 Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by:

- switch from d_alloc_name() + d_lookup() to lookup_one_len(): Instead of using d_alloc_name() and then doing a d_lookup() with the allocated dentry to find whether a device with the name we're trying to create already exists switch to using lookup_one_len(). The latter will either return the existing dentry or a new one. - switch from kmalloc() + strscpy() to kmemdup(): Use a more idiomatic way to copy the name for the new dentry that userspace gave us.

Al pointed out that on binderfs_fill_super() error deactivate_locked_super() will call binderfs_kill_super() so all of the freeing and putting we currently do in binderfs_fill_super() is unnecessary and buggy.

- make binderfs control dentry immutable: We don't allow to unlink it since it is crucial for binderfs to be useable but if we allow to rename it we make the unlink trivial to bypass. So prevent renaming too and simply treat the control dentry as immutable. - add is_binderfs_control_device() helper: Take the opportunity and turn the check for the control dentry into a separate helper is_binderfs_control_device() since it's now used in two places. - simplify binderfs_rename(): Instead of hand-rolling our custom version of simple_rename() just dumb the whole function down to first check whether we're trying to rename the control dentry. If we do EPERM the caller and if not call simple_rename(). Suggested-by:

The binderfs instance in the initial ipc namespace will always have a reserve of 4 binder devices unless explicitly capped by specifying a lower value via the "max" mount option. This ensures when binder devices are removed (on accident or on purpose) they can always be recreated without risking that all minor numbers have already been used up.

Since binderfs can be mounted by userns root in non-initial user namespaces some precautions are in order. First, a way to set a maximum on the number of binder devices that can be allocated per binderfs instance and second, a way to reserve a reasonable chunk of binderfs devices for the initial ipc namespace. A first approach as seen in [1] used sysctls similiar to devpts but was shown to be flawed (cf. [2] and [3]) since some aspects were unneeded. This is an alternative approach which avoids sysctls completely and instead switches to a single mount option. Starting with this commit binderfs instances can be mounted with a limit on the number of binder devices that can be allocated. The max=<count> mount option serves as a per-instance limit. If max=<count> is set then only <count> number of binder devices can be allocated in this binderfs instance. This allows to safely bind-mount binderfs instances into unprivileged user namespaces since userns root in a non-initial user namespace cannot change the mount option as long as it does not own the mount namespace the binderfs mount was created in and hence cannot drain the host of minor device numbers [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181221133909.18794-1-christian@brauner.io/ [2]; https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181221163316.GA8517@kroah.com/ [3]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHRSSEx+gDVW4fKKK8oZNAir9G5icJLyodO8hykv3O0O1jt2FQ@mail.gmail.com/ [4]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181221192044.5yvfnuri7gdop4rs@brauner.io/ Cc: Todd Kjos <tkjos@google.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by:

The changes to split ring allocation from open/close, broke the cleanup of subchannels. This resulted in problems using uio on network devices because the subchannel was left behind when the network device was unbound. The cause was in the disconnect logic which used list splice to move the subchannel list into a local variable. This won't work because the subchannel list is needed later during the process of the rescind messages (relid2channel). The fix is to just leave the subchannel list in place which is what the original code did. The list is cleaned up later when the host rescind is processed. Without the fix, we have a lot of "hang" issues in netvsc when we try to change the NIC's MTU, set the number of channels, etc. Fixes: ae6935ed ("vmbus: split ring buffer allocation from open") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

Hyper-V memory hotplug protocol has 2M granularity and in Linux x86 we use 128M. To deal with it we implement partial section onlining by registering custom page onlining callback (hv_online_page()). Later, when more memory arrives we try to online the 'tail' (see hv_bring_pgs_online()). It was found that in some cases this 'tail' onlining causes issues: BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/0:2 pfn:109e3a page:ffffe08344278e80 count:0 mapcount:1 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 flags: 0xfffff80000000() raw: 000fffff80000000 dead000000000100 dead000000000200 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 page dumped because: nonzero mapcount ...

Turns out that we now have deferred struct page initialization for memory hotplug so e.g. memory_block_action() in drivers/base/memory.c does pages_correctly_probed() check and in that check it avoids inspecting struct pages and checks sections instead. But in Hyper-V balloon driver we do PageReserved(pfn_to_page()) check and this is now wrong. Switch to checking online_section_nr() instead. Signed-off-by:

When currently mounting binderfs in the same ipc namespace twice: mount -t binder binder /A mount -t binder binder /B then the binderfs instances mounted on /A and /B will be the same, i.e. they will have the same superblock. This was the first approach that seemed reasonable. However, this leads to some problems and inconsistencies: /* private binderfs instance in same ipc namespace */ There is no way for a user to request a private binderfs instance in the same ipc namespace. This request has been made in a private mail to me by two independent people. /* bind-mounts */ If users want the same binderfs instance to appear in multiple places they can use bind mounts. So there is no value in having a request for a new binderfs mount giving them the same instance. /* unexpected behavior */ It's surprising that request to mount binderfs is not giving the user a new instance like tmpfs, devpts, ramfs, and others do. /* past mistakes */ Other pseudo-filesystems once made the same mistakes of giving back the same superblock when actually requesting a new mount (cf. devpts's deprecated "newinstance" option). We should not make the same mistake. Once we've committed to always giving back the same superblock in the same IPC namespace with the next kernel release we will not be able to make that change so better to do it now. /* kdbusfs */ It was pointed out to me that kdbusfs - which is conceptually closely related to binderfs - also allowed users to get a private kdbusfs instance in the same IPC namespace by making each mount of kdbusfs a separate instance. I think that makes a lot of sense. Signed-off-by:

The semantics of what "in core" means for the mincore() system call are somewhat unclear, but Linux has always (since 2.3.52, which is when mincore() was initially done) treated it as "page is available in page cache" rather than "page is mapped in the mapping". The problem with that traditional semantic is that it exposes a lot of system cache state that it really probably shouldn't, and that users shouldn't really even care about. So let's try to avoid that information leak by simply changing the semantics to be that mincore() counts actual mapped pages, not pages that might be cheaply mapped if they were faulted (note the "might be" part of the old semantics: being in the cache doesn't actually guarantee that you can access them without IO anyway, since things like network filesystems may have to revalidate the cache before use). In many ways the old semantics were somewhat insane even aside from the information leak issue. From the very beginning (and that beginning is a long time ago: 2.3.52 was released in March 2000, I think), the code had a comment saying Later we can get more picky about what "in core" means precisely. and this is that "later". Admittedly it is much later than is really comfortable. NOTE! This is a real semantic change, and it is for example known to change the output of "fincore", since that program literally does a mmmap without populating it, and then doing "mincore()" on that mapping that doesn't actually have any pages in it. I'm hoping that nobody actually has any workflow that cares, and the info leak is real. We may have to do something different if it turns out that people have valid reasons to want the old semantics, and if we can limit the information leak sanely.

It turns out that the bug wasn't actually in that commit itself (which would have been surprising: it was mostly a no-op), but in how the addition of access_ok() to the strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() functions now triggered the case where those functions would test the access of the very last byte of the user address space. The string functions actually did that user range test before too, but they did it manually by just comparing against user_addr_max(). But with user_access_begin() doing the check (using "access_ok()"), it now exposed problems in the architecture implementations of that function. For example, on alpha, the access_ok() helper macro looked like this: #define __access_ok(addr, size) \ ((get_fs().seg & (addr | size | (addr+size))) == 0) and what it basically tests is of any of the high bits get set (the USER_DS masking value is 0xfffffc0000000000). And that's completely wrong for the "addr+size" check. Because it's off-by-one for the case where we check to the very end of the user address space, which is exactly what the strn*_user() functions do. Why? Because "addr+size" will be exactly the size of the address space, so trying to access the last byte of the user address space will fail the __access_ok() check, even though it shouldn't. As a result, the user string accessor functions failed consistently - because they literally don't know how long the string is going to be, and the max access is going to be that last byte of the user address space. Side note: that alpha macro is buggy for another reason too - it re-uses the arguments twice. And SH has another version of almost the exact same bug: #define __addr_ok(addr) \ ((unsigned long __force)(addr) < current_thread_info()->addr_limit.seg) so far so good: yes, a user address must be below the limit. But then: #define __access_ok(addr, size) \ (__addr_ok((addr) + (size))) is wrong with the exact same off-by-one case: the case when "addr+size" is exactly _equal_ to the limit is actually perfectly fine (think "one byte access at the last address of the user address space") The SH version is actually seriously buggy in another way: it doesn't actually check for overflow, even though it did copy the _comment_ that talks about overflow. So it turns out that both SH and alpha actually have completely buggy implementations of access_ok(), but they happened to work in practice (although the SH overflow one is a serious serious security bug, not that anybody likely cares about SH security). This fixes the problems by using a similar macro on both alpha and SH. It isn't trying to be clever, the end address is based on this logic: unsigned long __ao_end = __ao_a + __ao_b - !!__ao_b; which basically says "add start and length, and then subtract one unless the length was zero". We can't subtract one for a zero length, or we'd just hit an underflow instead. For a lot of access_ok() users the length is a constant, so this isn't actually as expensive as it initially looks.

Add support for the Adiantum encryption mode to fscrypt. Adiantum is a tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode with security provably reducible to that of XChaCha12 and AES-256, subject to a security bound. It's also a true wide-block mode, unlike XTS. See the paper "Adiantum: length-preserving encryption for entry-level processors" (https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/720.pdf) for more details. Also see commit 059c2a4d ("crypto: adiantum - add Adiantum support"). On sufficiently long messages, Adiantum's bottlenecks are XChaCha12 and the NH hash function. These algorithms are fast even on processors without dedicated crypto instructions. Adiantum makes it feasible to enable storage encryption on low-end mobile devices that lack AES instructions; currently such devices are unencrypted. On ARM Cortex-A7, on 4096-byte messages Adiantum encryption is about 4 times faster than AES-256-XTS encryption; decryption is about 5 times faster. In fscrypt, Adiantum is suitable for encrypting both file contents and names. With filenames, it fixes a known weakness: when two filenames in a directory share a common prefix of >= 16 bytes, with CTS-CBC their encrypted filenames share a common prefix too, leaking information. Adiantum does not have this problem. Since Adiantum also accepts long tweaks (IVs), it's also safe to use the master key directly for Adiantum encryption rather than deriving per-file keys, provided that the per-file nonce is included in the IVs and the master key isn't used for any other encryption mode. This configuration saves memory and improves performance. A new fscrypt policy flag is added to allow users to opt-in to this configuration. Signed-off-by:
