signal: refactor copy_siginfo_to_user32

2020-05-05T20:46:09Z

Factor out a copy_siginfo_to_external32 helper from copy_siginfo_to_user32 that fills out the compat_siginfo, but does so on a kernel space data structure. With that we can let architectures override copy_siginfo_to_user32 with their own implementations using copy_siginfo_to_external32. That allows moving the x32 SIGCHLD purely to x86 architecture code. As a nice side effect copy_siginfo_to_external32 also comes in handy for avoiding a set_fs() call in the coredump code later on. Contains improvements from Eric W. Biederman and Arnd Bergmann .

x86: get rid of put_user_try in {ia32,x32}_setup_rt_frame()

2020-03-19T04:37:49Z

Straightforward, except for compat_save_altstack_ex() stuck in those. Replace that thing with an analogue that would use unsafe_put_user() instead of put_user_ex() (called unsafe_compat_save_altstack()) and be done with that... Signed-off-by: Al Viro

compat: provide compat_ptr() on all architectures

2020-01-03T08:32:51Z

In order to avoid needless #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT checks, move the compat_ptr() definition to linux/compat.h where it can be seen by any file regardless of the architecture. Only s390 needs a special definition, this can use the self-#define trick we have elsewhere. Reviewed-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

Pull y2038 cleanups from Arnd Bergmann: "y2038 syscall implementation cleanups This is a series of cleanups for the y2038 work, mostly intended for namespace cleaning: the kernel defines the traditional time_t, timeval and timespec types that often lead to y2038-unsafe code. Even though the unsafe usage is mostly gone from the kernel, having the types and associated functions around means that we can still grow new users, and that we may be missing conversions to safe types that actually matter. There are still a number of driver specific patches needed to get the last users of these types removed, those have been submitted to the respective maintainers" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191108210236.1296047-1-arnd@arndb.de/ * tag 'y2038-cleanups-5.5' of git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground: (26 commits) y2038: alarm: fix half-second cut-off y2038: ipc: fix x32 ABI breakage y2038: fix typo in powerpc vdso "LOPART" y2038: allow disabling time32 system calls y2038: itimer: change implementation to timespec64 y2038: move itimer reset into itimer.c y2038: use compat_{get,set}_itimer on alpha y2038: itimer: compat handling to itimer.c y2038: time: avoid timespec usage in settimeofday() y2038: timerfd: Use timespec64 internally y2038: elfcore: Use __kernel_old_timeval for process times y2038: make ns_to_compat_timeval use __kernel_old_timeval y2038: socket: use __kernel_old_timespec instead of timespec y2038: socket: remove timespec reference in timestamping y2038: syscalls: change remaining timeval to __kernel_old_timeval y2038: rusage: use __kernel_old_timeval y2038: uapi: change __kernel_time_t to __kernel_old_time_t y2038: stat: avoid 'time_t' in 'struct stat' y2038: ipc: remove __kernel_time_t reference from headers y2038: vdso: powerpc: avoid timespec references ...

futex: Move futex exit handling into futex code

2019-11-20T08:40:07Z

The futex exit handling is #ifdeffed into mm_release() which is not pretty to begin with. But upcoming changes to address futex exit races need to add more functionality to this exit code. Split it out into a function, move it into futex code and make the various futex exit functions static. Preparatory only and no functional change. Folded build fix from Borislav.

y2038: itimer: compat handling to itimer.c

2019-11-15T13:38:30Z

The structure is only used in one place, moving it there simplifies the interface and helps with later changes to this code. Rename it to match the other time32 structures in the process. Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

y2038: make ns_to_compat_timeval use __kernel_old_timeval

2019-11-15T13:38:29Z

This gets us one step closer to removing 'struct timeval' from the kernel. We still keep __kernel_old_timeval for interfaces that we cannot fix otherwise, and ns_to_compat_timeval() is provably safe for interfaces that are legitimate users of __kernel_old_timeval on native kernels, so this is an obvious change.

signal: simplify set_user_sigmask/restore_user_sigmask

2019-07-17T02:23:24Z

task->saved_sigmask and ->restore_sigmask are only used in the ret-from- syscall paths. This means that set_user_sigmask() can save ->blocked in ->saved_sigmask and do set_restore_sigmask() to indicate that ->blocked was modified. This way the callers do not need 2 sigset_t's passed to set/restore and restore_user_sigmask() renamed to restore_saved_sigmask_unless() turns into the trivial helper which just calls restore_saved_sigmask().
