In addition to randomisation of the stack pointer within the stack, the stack itself should be randomized too. We need both approaches, we can only randomize the stack itself in pagesize increments. However randomizing large ranges with the stackpointer runs into the situation where a huge chunk of the stack rlimit is used by the randomisation; this is undesirable so we need to do both.

Introduce a personality that disables randomisation, so that users can use setarch and related commands to run specific applications without randomisation. Signed-off-by:

The patch below randomizes the starting point of the mmap area. This has the effect that all non-prelinked shared libaries and all bigger malloc()s will be randomized between various invocations of the binary. Prelinked binaries get a address-hint from ld.so in their mmap and are thus exempt from this randomisation, in order to not break the prelink advantage. The randomisation range is 1 megabyte (this is bigger than the stack randomisation since the stack randomisation only needs 16 bytes alignment while the mmap needs page alignment, a 64kb range would not have given enough entropy to be effective) Signed-off-by:

The patch below replaces the existing 8Kb randomisation of the userspace stack pointer (which is currently only done for Hyperthreaded P-IVs) with a more general randomisation over a 64Kb range. 64Kb is not a lot, but it's a start and once the dust settles we can increase this value to a more agressive value.

Even though there is a global flag to disable randomisation, it's useful to have a per process flag too; the patch below introduces this per process flag and automatically sets it for "new" binaries. Eventually we will want to tie this to the legacy-va-space personality Signed-off-by:

The patch below introduces get_random_int() and randomize_range(), two helpers used in later patches in the series. get_random_int() shares the tcp/ip random number stuff so the CONFIG_INET ifdef needs to move slightly, and to reduce the damange due to that, secure_ip_id() needs to move inside random.c From: Frank Sorenson <frank@tuxrocks.com> Acked-By:
Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> The stack randomization patches that went into 2.6.11-rc3-mm1 broke compilation of ARCH=um. This patch fixes compiling by adding arch_align_stack back in. Signed-off-by:

This first patch of the series introduces a sysctl (default off) that enables/disables the randomisation feature globally. Since randomisation may make it harder to debug really tricky situations (reproducability goes down), the sysadmin needs a way to disable it globally. Signed-off-by:

Modify ib_cancel_mad() to invoke a user's send completion callback from a different thread context than that used by the caller. This allows a caller to hold a lock while calling cancel that is also acquired from their send handler. Signed-off-by:

1. Split the QP spinlock into separate send and receive locks. The only place where we have to lock both is upon modify_qp, and that is not on data path. 2. Avoid taking any QP locks when polling CQ. This last part is achieved by getting rid of the cur field in mthca_wq, and calculating the number of outstanding WQEs by comparing the head and tail fields. head is only updated by post, tail is only updated by poll. In a rare case where an overrun is detected, a CQ is locked and the overrun condition is re-tested, to avoid any potential for stale tail values. Signed-off-by:

Tie up one last loose end by mapping enough context memory to cover the whole multicast table during initialization, and then enable mem-free mode. mthca now supports enough of mem-free mode so that IPoIB works with a mem-free HCA. Signed-off-by:

Roland Dreier authored
Implement posting send and receive work requests for mem-free mode. Also tidy up a few things in send/receive posting for Tavor mode (fix smp_wmb()s that should really be just wmb()s, annotate tests in the fast path with likely()/unlikely()). Signed-off-by:

Update address vector handling to support mem-free mode. In mem-free mode, the address vector (in hardware format) is copied by the driver into each send work queue entry, so our address handle creation can become pretty trivial: we just kmalloc() a buffer to hold the formatted address vector.

Update QP initialization and cleanup to handle mem-free mode. In mem-free mode, work queue sizes have to be rounded up to a power of 2, we need to allocate doorbells, there must be memory mapped for the entries in the QP and extended QP context table that we use, and the entries of the receive queue must be initialized.

Update CQ initialization and cleanup to handle mem-free mode: we need to make sure the HCA has memory mapped for the entry in the CQ context table we will use and also allocate doorbell records. Signed-off-by:

Factor the allocation and freeing of completion queue buffers into mthca_alloc_cq_buf() and mthca_free_cq_buf(). This makes the code more readable and will eventually make handling userspace CQs simpler (the kernel doesn't have to allocate a buffer at all). Signed-off-by:

Roland Dreier authored
Add a mthca_write_db_rec() to wrap writing doorbell records. On 64-bit archs, this is just a 64-bit write, while on 32-bit archs it splits the write into two 32-bit writes with a memory barrier to make sure the two halves of the record are written in the correct order. Signed-off-by:

Mem-free mode requires the driver to allocate additional doorbell pages for each user access region. Add support for this in mthca_memfree.c, and have the driver allocate a table in db_tab for kernel use. Signed-off-by:

Add support for mapping more memory into HCA's context to cover context tables when new objects are allocated. Pass the object size into mthca_alloc_icm_table(), reference count the ICM chunks, and add new mthca_table_get() and mthca_table_put() functions to handle mapping memory when allocating or destroying objects.

Locking during the poll cq operation can be reduced by locking the cq while qp is being removed from the qp array. This also avoids an extra atomic operation for reference counting. Signed-off-by:

Avoid taking the CQ table lock in the fast path path by using synchronize_irq() after removing a CQ from the table to make sure that no completion events are still in progress. This gets a nice speedup (about 4%) in IP over IB on my hardware. Signed-off-by:

Make IPoIB data_debug_level module parameter static to the single file where it is used. Also Rename IPoIB module parameter variable from "debug_level" to "ipoib_debug_level".
