mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl

2024-05-30T07:49:45Z

[ Upstream commit 3a9e567ca45fb5280065283d10d9a11f0db61d2b ] Patch series "mm/ksm: fix ksm exec support for prctl", v4. commit 3c6f33b7273a ("mm/ksm: support fork/exec for prctl") inherits MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag when a task calls execve(). However, it doesn't create the mm_slot, so ksmd will not try to scan this task. The first patch fixes the issue. The second patch refactors to prepare for the third patch. The third patch extends the selftests of ksm to verfity the deduplication really happens after fork/exec inherits ths KSM setting. This patch (of 3): commit 3c6f33b7273a ("mm/ksm: support fork/exec for prctl") inherits MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag when a task calls execve(). Howerver, it doesn't create the mm_slot, so ksmd will not try to scan this task. To fix it, allocate and add the mm_slot to ksm_mm_head in __bprm_mm_init() when the mm has MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag.

exec: Fix NOMMU linux_binprm::exec in transfer_args_to_stack()

2024-04-03T13:32:39Z

commit 2aea94ac14d1e0a8ae9e34febebe208213ba72f7 upstream. In NOMMU kernel the value of linux_binprm::p is the offset inside the temporary program arguments array maintained in separate pages in the linux_binprm::page. linux_binprm::exec being a copy of linux_binprm::p thus must be adjusted when that array is copied to the user stack. Without that adjustment the value passed by the NOMMU kernel to the ELF program in the AT_EXECFN entry of the aux array doesn't make any sense and it may break programs that try to access memory pointed to by that entry. Adjust linux_binprm::exec before the successful return from the transfer_args_to_stack().

uselib: remove use of __FMODE_EXEC

2024-01-24T21:12:20Z

Jann Horn points out that uselib() really shouldn't trigger the new FMODE_EXEC logic introduced by commit 4759ff71f23e ("exec: __FMODE_EXEC instead of in_execve for LSMs"). In fact, it shouldn't even have ever triggered the old pre-existing logic for __FMODE_EXEC (like the NFS code that makes executables not need read permissions). Unlike a real execve(), that can work even with files that are purely executable by the user (not readable), uselib() has that MAY_READ requirement becasue it's really just a convenience wrapper around mmap() for legacy shared libraries. The whole FMODE_EXEC bit was originally introduced by commit b500531e6f5f ("[PATCH] Introduce FMODE_EXEC file flag"), primarily to give ETXTBUSY error returns for distributed filesystems. It has since grown a few other warts (like that NFS thing), but there really isn't any reason to use it for uselib(), and now that we are trying to use it to replace the horrid 'tsk->in_execve' flag, it's actively wrong. Of course, as Jann Horn also points out, nobody should be enabling CONFIG_USELIB in the first place in this day and age, but that's a different discussion entirely.

exec: Distinguish in_execve from in_exec

2024-01-24T19:48:52Z

Just to help distinguish the fs->in_exec flag from the current->in_execve flag, add comments in check_unsafe_exec() and copy_fs() for more context. Also note that in_execve is only used by TOMOYO now.

exec: Fix error handling in begin_new_exec()

2024-01-22T20:51:31Z

If get_unused_fd_flags() fails, the error handling is incomplete because bprm->cred is already set to NULL, and therefore free_bprm will not unlock the cred_guard_mutex. Note there are two error conditions which end up here, one before and one after bprm->cred is cleared.

execve: open the executable file before doing anything else

2024-01-20T20:15:43Z

No point in allocating a new mm, counting arguments and environment variables etc if we're just going to return ENOENT. This patch does expose the fact that 'do_filp_open()' that execve() uses is still unnecessarily expensive in the failure case, because it allocates the 'struct file *' early, even if the path lookup (which is heavily optimized) fails. So that remains an unnecessary cost in the "no such executable" case, but it's a separate issue. Regardless, I do not want to do _both_ a filename_lookup() and a later do_filp_open() like the origin patch by Josh Triplett did in [1].

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux

2024-01-11T01:44:36Z

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this work. In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/ directory only. The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL. Let us recap the purpose of this work: - this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array - the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the struct ctl_table. Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer as he has moved on to other projects and has had no time to help at all" * tag 'sysctl-6.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: sysctl: remove struct ctl_path sysctl: delete unused define SYSCTL_PERM_EMPTY_DIR coda: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array sysctl: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array fs: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array cachefiles: Remove the now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_table array sysclt: Clarify the results of selftest run sysctl: Add a selftest for handling empty dirs sysctl: Fix out of bounds access for empty sysctl registers MAINTAINERS: Add Joel Granados as co-maintainer for proc sysctl MAINTAINERS: remove Iurii Zaikin from proc sysctl
