x86: signal: don't do sas_ss_reset() until we are certain that sigframe won't be abandoned

2021-07-01T18:06:06Z

Currently we handle SS_AUTODISARM as soon as we have stored the altstack settings into sigframe - that's the point when we have set the things up for eventual sigreturn to restore the old settings. And if we manage to set the sigframe up (we are not done with that yet), everything's fine. However, in case of failure we end up with sigframe-to-be abandoned and SIGSEGV force-delivered. And in that case we end up with inconsistent rules - late failures have altstack reset, early ones do not. It's trivial to get consistent behaviour - just handle SS_AUTODISARM once we have set the sigframe up and are committed to entering the handler, i.e. in signal_delivered().

2021-05-21T16:12:52Z

Pull siginfo fix from Eric Biederman: "During the merge window an issue with si_perf and the siginfo ABI came up. The alpha and sparc siginfo structure layout had changed with the addition of SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF and the new field si_perf. The reason only alpha and sparc were affected is that they are the only architectures that use si_trapno. Looking deeper it was discovered that si_trapno is used for only a few select signals on alpha and sparc, and that none of the other _sigfault fields past si_addr are used at all. Which means technically no regression on alpha and sparc. While the alignment concerns might be dismissed the abuse of si_errno by SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF does have the potential to cause regressions in existing userspace. While we still have time before userspace starts using and depending on the new definition siginfo for SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF this set of changes cleans up siginfo_t. - The si_trapno field is demoted from magic alpha and sparc status and made an ordinary union member of the _sigfault member of siginfo_t. Without moving it of course. - si_perf is replaced with si_perf_data and si_perf_type ending the abuse of si_errno. - Unnecessary additions to signalfd_siginfo are removed" * 'for-v5.13-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: signalfd: Remove SIL_PERF_EVENT fields from signalfd_siginfo signal: Deliver all of the siginfo perf data in _perf signal: Factor force_sig_perf out of perf_sigtrap signal: Implement SIL_FAULT_TRAPNO siginfo: Move si_trapno inside the union inside _si_fault

signal: Deliver all of the siginfo perf data in _perf

2021-05-18T21:20:54Z

Don't abuse si_errno and deliver all of the perf data in _perf member of siginfo_t. Note: The data field in the perf data structures in a u64 to allow a pointer to be encoded without needed to implement a 32bit and 64bit version of the same structure. There already exists a 32bit and 64bit versions siginfo_t, and the 32bit version can not include a 64bit member as it only has 32bit alignment. So unsigned long is used in siginfo_t instead of a u64 as unsigned long can encode a pointer on all architectures linux supports. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/m11rarqqx2.fsf_-_@fess.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210503203814.25487-10-ebiederm@xmission.com v3: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210505141101.11519-11-ebiederm@xmission.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210517195748.8880-4-ebiederm@xmission.com Reviewed-by: Marco Elver Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

siginfo: Move si_trapno inside the union inside _si_fault

2021-05-18T21:17:03Z

It turns out that linux uses si_trapno very sparingly, and as such it can be considered extra information for a very narrow selection of signals, rather than information that is present with every fault reported in siginfo. As such move si_trapno inside the union inside of _si_fault. This results in no change in placement, and makes it eaiser to extend _si_fault in the future as this reduces the number of special cases. In particular with si_trapno included in the union it is no longer a concern that the union must be pointer aligned on most architectures because the union follows immediately after si_addr which is a pointer. This change results in a difference in siginfo field placement on sparc and alpha for the fields si_addr_lsb, si_lower, si_upper, si_pkey, and si_perf. These architectures do not implement the signals that would use si_addr_lsb, si_lower, si_upper, si_pkey, and si_perf. Further these architecture have not yet implemented the userspace that would use si_perf. The point of this change is in fact to correct these placement issues before sparc or alpha grow userspace that cares. This change was discussed[1] and the agreement is that this change is currently safe.

signal, perf: Fix siginfo_t by avoiding u64 on 32-bit architectures

2021-04-23T07:03:16Z

The alignment of a structure is that of its largest member. On architectures like 32-bit Arm (but not e.g. 32-bit x86) 64-bit integers will require 64-bit alignment and not its natural word size. This means that there is no portable way to add 64-bit integers to siginfo_t on 32-bit architectures without breaking the ABI, because siginfo_t does not yet (and therefore likely never will) contain 64-bit fields on 32-bit architectures. Adding a 64-bit integer could change the alignment of the union after the 3 initial int si_signo, si_errno, si_code, thus introducing 4 bytes of padding shifting the entire union, which would break the ABI. One alternative would be to use the __packed attribute, however, it is non-standard C. Given siginfo_t has definitions outside the Linux kernel in various standard libraries that can be compiled with any number of different compilers (not just those we rely on), using non-standard attributes on siginfo_t should be avoided to ensure portability. In the case of the si_perf field, word size is sufficient since there is no exact requirement on size, given the data it contains is user-defined via perf_event_attr::sig_data. On 32-bit architectures, any excess bits of perf_event_attr::sig_data will therefore be truncated when copying into si_perf. Since si_perf is intended to disambiguate events (e.g. encoding relevant information if there are more events of the same type), 32 bits should provide enough entropy to do so on 32-bit architectures. For 64-bit architectures, no change is intended.

signal: Add unsafe_get_compat_sigset()

2021-04-03T10:22:18Z

In the same way as commit 14026b94ccfe ("signal: Add unsafe_put_compat_sigset()"), this time add unsafe_get_compat_sigset() macro which is the 'unsafe' version of get_compat_sigset() For the bigendian, use unsafe_get_user() directly to avoid intermediate copy through the stack. For the littleendian, use a straight unsafe_copy_from_user(). This commit adds the generic fallback for unsafe_copy_from_user(). Architectures wanting to use unsafe_get_compat_sigset() have to make sure they have their own unsafe_copy_from_user().
