mm: fix new crash in unmapped_area_topdown()

2017-06-26T05:13:11Z

commit f4cb767d76cf7ee72f97dd76f6cfa6c76a5edc89 upstream. Trinity gets kernel BUG at mm/mmap.c:1963! in about 3 minutes of mmap testing. That's the VM_BUG_ON(gap_end < gap_start) at the end of unmapped_area_topdown(). Linus points out how MAP_FIXED (which does not have to respect our stack guard gap intentions) could result in gap_end below gap_start there. Fix that, and the similar case in its alternative, unmapped_area().

Allow stack to grow up to address space limit

2017-06-26T05:13:11Z

commit bd726c90b6b8ce87602208701b208a208e6d5600 upstream. Fix expand_upwards() on architectures with an upward-growing stack (parisc, metag and partly IA-64) to allow the stack to reliably grow exactly up to the address space limit given by TASK_SIZE.

mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas

2017-06-26T05:13:11Z

commit 1be7107fbe18eed3e319a6c3e83c78254b693acb upstream. Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping. But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX] which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN. This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical, unfortunatelly. Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot. One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace, but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong for some special case applications. For now, add a kernel command line option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units). Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page: because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point, a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK and strict non-overcommit mode. Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start (or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(), and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

alarmtimer: Rate limit periodic intervals

2017-06-26T05:13:11Z

commit ff86bf0c65f14346bf2440534f9ba5ac232c39a0 upstream. The alarmtimer code has another source of potentially rearming itself too fast. Interval timers with a very samll interval have a similar CPU hog effect as the previously fixed overflow issue. The reason is that alarmtimers do not implement the normal protection against this kind of problem which the other posix timer use: timer expires -> queue signal -> deliver signal -> rearm timer This scheme brings the rearming under scheduler control and prevents permanently firing timers which hog the CPU. Bringing this scheme to the alarm timer code is a major overhaul because it lacks all the necessary mechanisms completely. So for a quick fix limit the interval to one jiffie. This is not problematic in practice as alarmtimers are usually backed by an RTC for suspend which have 1 second resolution. It could be therefor argued that the resolution of this clock should be set to 1 second in general, but that's outside the scope of this fix.

MIPS: Fix bnezc/jialc return address calculation

2017-06-26T05:13:11Z

commit 1a73d9310e093fc3adffba4d0a67b9fab2ee3f63 upstream. The code handling the pop76 opcode (ie. bnezc & jialc instructions) in __compute_return_epc_for_insn() needs to set the value of $31 in the jialc case, which is encoded with rs = 0. However its check to differentiate bnezc (rs != 0) from jialc (rs = 0) was unfortunately backwards, meaning that if we emulate a bnezc instruction we clobber $31 & if we emulate a jialc instruction it actually behaves like a jic instruction. Fix this by inverting the check of rs to match the way the instructions are actually encoded.

alarmtimer: Prevent overflow of relative timers

2017-06-26T05:13:10Z

commit f4781e76f90df7aec400635d73ea4c35ee1d4765 upstream. Andrey reported a alartimer related RCU stall while fuzzing the kernel with syzkaller. The reason for this is an overflow in ktime_add() which brings the resulting time into negative space and causes immediate expiry of the timer. The following rearm with a small interval does not bring the timer back into positive space due to the same issue. This results in a permanent firing alarmtimer which hogs the CPU. Use ktime_add_safe() instead which detects the overflow and clamps the result to KTIME_SEC_MAX.

swap: cond_resched in swap_cgroup_prepare()

commit ef70762948dde012146926720b70e79736336764 upstream. I saw need_resched() warnings when swapping on large swapfile (TBs) because continuously allocating many pages in swap_cgroup_prepare() took too long. We already cond_resched when freeing page in swap_cgroup_swapoff(). Do the same for the page allocation.
