arch: remove compat_alloc_user_space

2021-09-08T22:32:35Z

All users of compat_alloc_user_space() and copy_in_user() have been removed from the kernel, only a few functions in sparc remain that can be changed to calling arch_copy_in_user() instead.

mm: simplify compat numa syscalls

2021-09-08T22:32:35Z

The compat implementations for mbind, get_mempolicy, set_mempolicy and migrate_pages are just there to handle the subtly different layout of bitmaps on 32-bit hosts. The compat implementation however lacks some of the checks that are present in the native one, in particular for checking that the extra bits are all zero when user space has a larger mask size than the kernel. Worse, those extra bits do not get cleared when copying in or out of the kernel, which can lead to incorrect data as well. Unify the implementation to handle the compat bitmap layout directly in the get_nodes() and copy_nodes_to_user() helpers. Splitting out the get_bitmap() helper from get_nodes() also helps readability of the native case. On x86, two additional problems are addressed by this: compat tasks can pass a bitmap at the end of a mapping, causing a fault when reading across the page boundary for a 64-bit word. x32 tasks might also run into problems with get_mempolicy corrupting data when an odd number of 32-bit words gets passed. On parisc the migrate_pages() system call apparently had the wrong calling convention, as big-endian architectures expect the words inside of a bitmap to be swapped. This is not a problem though since parisc has no NUMA support.

compat: make linux/compat.h available everywhere

2021-07-23T13:20:24Z

Parts of linux/compat.h are under an #ifdef, but we end up using more of those over time, moving things around bit by bit. To get it over with once and for all, make all of this file uncondititonal now so it can be accessed everywhere. There are only a few types left that are in asm/compat.h but not yet in the asm-generic version, so add those in the process. This requires providing a few more types in asm-generic/compat.h that were not already there. The only tricky one is compat_sigset_t, which needs a little help on 32-bit architectures and for x86.

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().

Merge branch 'for-v5.13-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

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.
