      configfs: Don't try to d_delete() negative dentries. · df7f9967
      Joel Becker authored
      When configfs is faking mkdir() on its subsystem or default group
      objects, it starts by adding a negative dentry.  It then tries to
      instantiate the group.  If that should fail, it must clean up after
      itself.
      
      I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to
      return an empty dentry on error.  d_delete() explodes with the entry
      dentry.  Let's try d_drop() instead.  The unhashing is what we want for
      our dentry.

      vsprintf: Turn kptr_restrict off by default · 411f05f1
      Ingo Molnar authored
      kptr_restrict has been triggering bugs in apps such as perf, and it also makes
      the system less useful by default, so turn it off by default.
      
      This is how we generally handle security features that remove functionality,
      such as firewall code or SELinux - they have to be configured and activated
      from user-space.
      
      Distributions can turn kptr_restrict on again via this line in
      /etc/sysctrl.conf:
      
      kernel.kptr_restrict = 1
      
      ( Also mark the variable __read_mostly while at it, as it's typically modified
        only once per bootup, or not at all. )

      Pedro Scarapicchia Junior authored
      When p9pdu_readf() is called with "s" attribute, it allocates a pointer that
      will store a string. In p9dirent_read(), this pointer is not being released,
      leading to out of memory errors.
      This patch releases this pointer after string is copyed to dirent->d_name.

      The function native_pagetable_reserve() references
      the function __init memblock_x86_reserve_range().
      This is often because native_pagetable_reserve lacks a __init

      x86,xen: introduce x86_init.mapping.pagetable_reserve · 279b706b
      Stefano Stabellini authored
      Introduce a new x86_init hook called pagetable_reserve that at the end
      of init_memory_mapping is used to reserve a range of memory addresses for
      the kernel pagetable pages we used and free the other ones.
      
      On native it just calls memblock_x86_reserve_range while on xen it also
      takes care of setting the spare memory previously allocated
      for kernel pagetable pages from RO to RW, so that it can be used for
      other purposes.
      
      A detailed explanation of the reason why this hook is needed follows.
      
      As a consequence of the commit:
      
      commit 4b239f45
      Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>
      Date:   Fri Dec 17 16:58:28 2010 -0800
      
          x86-64, mm: Put early page table high
      
      at some point init_memory_mapping is going to reach the pagetable pages
      area and map those pages too (mapping them as normal memory that falls
      in the range of addresses passed to init_memory_mapping as argument).
      Some of those pages are already pagetable pages (they are in the range
      pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end) therefore they are going to be mapped RO and
      everything is fine.
      Some of these pages are not pagetable pages yet (they fall in the range
      pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top; for example the page at pgt_buf_end) so they
      are going to be mapped RW.  When these pages become pagetable pages and
      are hooked into the pagetable, xen will find that the guest has already
      a RW mapping of them somewhere and fail the operation.
      The reason Xen requires pagetables to be RO is that the hypervisor needs
      to verify that the pagetables are valid before using them. The validation
      operations are called "pinning" (more details in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c).
      
      In order to fix the issue we mark all the pages in the entire range
      pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_top as RO, however when the pagetable allocation
      is completed only the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end is reserved by
      init_memory_mapping. Hence the kernel is going to crash as soon as one
      of the pages in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top is reused (b/c those
      ranges are RO).
      
      For this reason we need a hook to reserve the kernel pagetable pages we
      used and free the other ones so that they can be reused for other
      purposes.
      On native it just means calling memblock_x86_reserve_range, on Xen it
      also means marking RW the pagetable pages that we allocated before but
      that haven't been used before.
      
      Another way to fix this is without using the hook is by adding a 'if
      (xen_pv_domain)' in the 'init_memory_mapping' code and calling the Xen
      counterpart, but that is just nasty.

      fbmem: make read/write/ioctl use the frame buffer at open time · c47747fd
      Linus Torvalds authored
      read/write/ioctl on a fbcon file descriptor has traditionally used the
      fbcon not when it was opened, but as it was at the time of the call.
      That makes no sense, but the lack of sense is much more obvious now that
      we properly ref-count the usage - it means that the ref-counting doesn't
      actually protect operations we do on the frame buffer.
      
      This changes it to look at the fb_info that we got at open time, but in
      order to avoid using a frame buffer long after it has been unregistered,
      we do verify that it is still current, and return -ENODEV if not.

      fbcon: add lifetime refcount to opened frame buffers · 698b3682
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This just adds the refcount and the new registration lock logic.  It
      does not (for example) actually change the read/write/ioctl routines to
      actually use the frame buffer that was opened: those function still end
      up alway susing whatever the current frame buffer is at the time of the
      call.
      
      Without this, if something holds the frame buffer open over a
      framebuffer switch, the close() operation after the switch will access a
      fb_info that has been free'd by the unregistering of the old frame
      buffer.
      
      (The read/write/ioctl operations will normally not cause problems,
      because they will - illogically - pick up the new fbcon instead.  But a
      switch that happens just as one of those is going on might see problems
      too, the window is just much smaller: one individual op rather than the
      whole open-close sequence.)
      
      This use-after-free is apparently fairly easily triggered by the Ubuntu
      11.04 boot sequence.

      ARM: 6892/1: handle ptrace requests to change PC during interrupted system calls · 2af68df0
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      GDB's interrupt.exp test cases currenly fail on ARM.  The problem is how do_signal
      handled restarting interrupted system calls:
      
      The entry.S assembler code determines that we come from a system call; and that
      information is passed as "syscall" parameter to do_signal.  That routine then
      calls get_signal_to_deliver [*] and if a signal is to be delivered, calls into
      handle_signal.  If a system call is to be restarted either after the signal
      handler returns, or if no handler is to be called in the first place, the PC
      is updated after the get_signal_to_deliver call, either in handle_signal (if
      we have a handler) or at the end of do_signal (otherwise).
      
      Now the problem is that during [*], the call to get_signal_to_deliver, a ptrace
      intercept may happen.  During this intercept, the debugger may change registers,
      including the PC.  This is done by GDB if it wants to execute an "inferior call",
      i.e. the execution of some code in the debugged program triggered by GDB.
      
      To this purpose, GDB will save all registers, allocate a stack frame, set up
      PC and arguments as appropriate for the call, and point the link register to
      a dummy breakpoint instruction.  Once the process is restarted, it will execute
      the call and then trap back to the debugger, at which point GDB will restore
      all registers and continue original execution.
      
      This generally works fine.  However, now consider what happens when GDB attempts
      to do exactly that while the process was interrupted during execution of a to-be-
      restarted system call:  do_signal is called with the syscall flag set; it calls
      get_signal_to_deliver, at which point the debugger takes over and changes the PC
      to point to a completely different place.  Now get_signal_to_deliver returns
      without a signal to deliver; but now do_signal decides it should be restarting
      a system call, and decrements the PC by 2 or 4 -- so it now points to 2 or 4
      bytes before the function GDB wants to call -- which leads to a subsequent crash.
      
      To fix this problem, two things need to be supported:
      - do_signal must be able to recognize that get_signal_to_deliver changed the PC
        to a different location, and skip the restart-syscall sequence
      - once the debugger has restored all registers at the end of the inferior call
        sequence, do_signal must recognize that *now* it needs to restart the pending
        system call, even though it was now entered from a breakpoint instead of an
        actual svc instruction
      
      This set of issues is solved on other platforms, usually by one of two
      mechanisms:
      
      - The status information "do_signal is handling a system call that may need
        restarting" is itself carried in some register that can be accessed via
        ptrace.  This is e.g. on Intel the "orig_eax" register; on Sparc the kernel
        defines a magic extra bit in the flags register for this purpose.
        This allows GDB to manage that state: reset it when doing an inferior call,
        and restore it after the call is finished.
      
      - On s390, do_signal transparently handles this problem without requiring
        GDB interaction, by performing system call restarting in the following
        way: first, adjust the PC as necessary for restarting the call.  Then,
        call get_signal_to_deliver; and finally just continue execution at the
        PC.  This way, if GDB does not change the PC, everything is as before.
        If GDB *does* change the PC, execution will simply continue there --
        and once GDB restores the PC it saved at that point, it will automatically
        point to the *restarted* system call.  (There is the minor twist how to
        handle system calls that do *not* need restarting -- do_signal will undo
        the PC change in this case, after get_signal_to_deliver has returned, and
        only if ptrace did not change the PC during that call.)
      
      Because there does not appear to be any obvious register to carry the
      syscall-restart information on ARM, we'd either have to introduce a new
      artificial ptrace register just for that purpose, or else handle the issue
      transparently like on s390.  The patch below implements the second option;
      using this patch makes the interrupt.exp test cases pass on ARM, with no
      regression in the GDB test suite otherwise.

      ARM: 6890/1: memmap: only free allocated memmap entries when using SPARSEMEM · 9af386c8
      Will Deacon authored
      The SPARSEMEM code allocates memmap entries only for sections which are
      present (i.e. those which contain some valid memory). The membank checks
      in free_unused_memmap do not take this into account and can incorrectly
      attempt to free memory which is not allocated, resulting in a BUG() in
      the bootmem code.
      
      However, if memory is configured as follows:
      
          |<----section---->|<----hole---->|<----section---->|
          +--------+--------+--------------+--------+--------+
          | bank 0 | unused |              | bank 1 | unused |
          +--------+--------+--------------+--------+--------+
      
      where a bank only occupies part of a section, the memmap allocated for
      the remainder of the section *can* be freed.
      
      This patch modifies the checks in free_unused_memmap so that only valid
      memmap entries are considered for removal.

      With the parameters I had a memory corruption, when the additional 5 bytes were rewritten.
      This patch corrects the error.

      tmpfs: fix spurious ENOSPC when racing with unswap · 59a16ead
      Hugh Dickins authored
      Testing the shmem_swaplist replacements for igrab() revealed another bug:
      writes to /dev/loop0 on a tmpfs file which fills its filesystem were
      sometimes failing with "Buffer I/O error"s.
      
      These came from ENOSPC failures of shmem_getpage(), when racing with
      swapoff: the same could happen when racing with another shmem_getpage(),
      pulling the page in from swap in between our find_lock_page() and our
      taking the info->lock (though not in the single-threaded loop case).
      
      This is unacceptable, and surprising that I've not noticed it before:
      it dates back many years, but (presumably) was made a lot easier to
      reproduce in 2.6.36, which sited a page preallocation in the race window.
      
      Fix it by rechecking the page cache before settling on an ENOSPC error.

      tmpfs: fix race between umount and swapoff · 778dd893
      Hugh Dickins authored
      The use of igrab() in swapoff's shmem_unuse_inode() is just as vulnerable
      to umount as that in shmem_writepage().
      
      Fix this instance by extending the protection of shmem_swaplist_mutex
      right across shmem_unuse_inode(): while it's on the list, the inode cannot
      be evicted (and the filesystem cannot be unmounted) without
      shmem_evict_inode() taking that mutex to remove it from the list.
      
      But since shmem_writepage() might take that mutex, we should avoid making
      memory allocations or memcg charges while holding it: prepare them at the
      outer level in shmem_unuse().  When mem_cgroup_cache_charge() was
      originally placed, we didn't know until that point that the page from swap
      was actually a shmem page; but nowadays it's noted in the swap_map, so
      we're safe to charge upfront.  For the radix_tree, do as is done in
      shmem_getpage(): preload upfront, but don't pin to the cpu; so we make a
      habit of refreshing the node pool, but might dip into GFP_NOWAIT reserves
      on occasion if subsequently preempted.
      
      With the allocation and charge moved out from shmem_unuse_inode(),
      we can also hold index map and info->lock over from finding the entry.

      shmem_writepage() calls igrab() on the inode for the page which came from

      This igrap-iput pair was added in commit 1b1b32f2 "tmpfs: fix
      shmem_swaplist races" based on incorrect assumptions: igrab() protects the
      inode from concurrent eviction by deletion, but it does nothing to protect
      it from concurrent unmounting, which goes ahead despite the raised
      i_count.
      
      So this use of igrab() was wrong all along, but the race made much worse
      in 2.6.37 when commit 63997e98 "split invalidate_inodes()" replaced
      two attempts at invalidate_inodes() by a single evict_inodes().
      
      Konstantin posted a plausible patch, raising sb->s_active too: I'm unsure
      whether it was correct or not; but burnt once by igrab(), I am sure that
      we don't want to rely more deeply upon externals here.
      
      Fix it by adding the inode to shmem_swaplist earlier, while the page lock
      on page in page cache still secures the inode against eviction, without
      artifically raising i_count.  It was originally added later because
      shmem_unuse_inode() is liable to remove an inode from the list while it's
      unswapped; but we can guard against that by taking spinlock before
      dropping mutex.
