Using a program like the following: #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { id_t id; siginfo_t infop; pid_t res; id = fork(); if (id == 0) { sleep(1); exit(0); } kill(id, SIGSTOP); alarm(1); waitid(P_PID, id, &infop, WCONTINUED); return 0; } to call waitid() on a stopped process results in access to the child task's credentials without the RCU read lock being held - which may be replaced in the meantime - eliciting the following warning: =================================================== [ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ] --------------------------------------------------- kernel/exit.c:1460 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection! other info that might help us debug this: rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1 2 locks held by waitid02/22252: #0: (tasklist_lock){.?.?..}, at: [<ffffffff81061ce5>] do_wait+0xc5/0x310 #1: (&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock){-.-...}, at: [<ffffffff810611da>] wait_consider_task+0x19a/0xbe0 stack backtrace: Pid: 22252, comm: waitid02 Not tainted 2.6.35-323cd+ #3 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81095da4>] lockdep_rcu_dereference+0xa4/0xc0 [<ffffffff81061b31>] wait_consider_task+0xaf1/0xbe0 [<ffffffff81061d15>] do_wait+0xf5/0x310 [<ffffffff810620b6>] sys_waitid+0x86/0x1f0 [<ffffffff8105fce0>] ? child_wait_callback+0x0/0x70 [<ffffffff81003282>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b This is fixed by holding the RCU read lock in wait_task_continued() to ensure that the task's current credentials aren't destroyed between us reading the cred pointer and us reading the UID from those credentials. Furthermore, protect wait_task_stopped() in the same way. We don't need to keep holding the RCU read lock once we've read the UID from the credentials as holding the RCU read lock doesn't stop the target task from changing its creds under us - so the credentials may be outdated immediately after we've read the pointer, lock or no lock.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles correctly on ARM: arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel(). do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as const should be fine. Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match. This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

As noticed by Linus, it is critical that some of the rwsem constants be signed. Yet, hex constants are unsigned unless explicitly casted or negated. The most critical one is RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS.

This patch fixes missing includes from a number of .c files because the code (wrongfully) depended on prom.h including them. The include of linux/of_address.h was removed in microblaze prom.h in commit "of/address: Clean up function declarations" (sha1 id 22ae782f), but not fixed in some callers. This patch fixes them up.

After rlimits tree was merged we get the following errors: security/apparmor/lsm.c:663:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type It is because AppArmor was merged in the meantime, but uses the old prototype. So fix it by adding struct task_struct as a first parameter of apparmor_task_setrlimit. NOTE that this is ONLY a compilation warning fix (and crashes caused by that). It needs proper handling in AppArmor depending on who is the 'task'.

Commit b45cfba4 (vt,console,kdb: implement atomic console enter/leave functions) introduced the ability to atomically change the console mode with kernel mode setting but did not preserve the state of the console_blanked variable. The console_blanked variable must be restored when executing the con_debug_leave() or further kernel mode set changes (such as using chvt X) will fail to correctly set the state of console.

If CONFIG_KGDB_KDB is set and CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set the kernel will fail to build with the error: kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_next': kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:237: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms' kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_complete': kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:193: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms' The kdb_walk_kallsyms needs a #ifdef proper header to match the C implementation. This patch also fixes the compiler warnings in kdb_support.c when compiling without CONFIG_KALLSYMS set. The compiler warnings are a result of the kallsyms_lookup() macro not initializing the two of the pass by reference variables.

If a video head and keyboard are hooked up, specifying "console=ttyS0" or similar to use a serial console will not work properly. The key issue is that we must register all serial console capable devices with register_console(), otherwise the command line specified device won't be found. The sun serial drivers would only register themselves as console devices if the OpenFirmware specified console device node matched. To fix this part we now unconditionally get the serial console register by setting serial_drv->cons always. Secondarily we must not add_preferred_console() using the firmware provided console setting if the user gaven an override on the kernel command line using "console=" The "primary framebuffer" matching logic was always triggering o n openfirmware device node match, make it not when a command line override was given.
