<title>module/retpoline: Warn about missing retpoline in module</title>

commit caf7501a1b4ec964190f31f9c3f163de252273b8

There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
right compiler or the right option.

To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
or prebuilt object files are not checked.

If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.

<title>module: Remove const attribute from alias for MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0bf8bf50eddc7511b52461bae798cbfaa0157a34</id>
<content type='text'>
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(type, name) creates an alias of type 'extern const
typeof(name)'. If 'name' is already constant the 'const' attribute is
specified twice, which is not allowed in C89 (see discussion at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/23/1440). Since the kernel is built with
-std=gnu89 clang generates warnings like this:

drivers/thermal/x86_pkg_temp_thermal.c:509:1: warning: duplicate 'const'
  declaration specifier
      [-Wduplicate-decl-specifier]
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, pkg_temp_thermal_ids);
^
./include/linux/module.h:212:8: note: expanded from macro 'MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE'
extern const typeof(name) __mod_##type##__##name##_device_table

Remove the const attribute from the alias to avoid the duplicate
specifier. After all it is only an alias and the attribute shouldn't
have any effect.

Pull structure randomization updates from Kees Cook:
 "Now that IPC and other changes have landed, enable manual markings for
  randstruct plugin, including the task_struct.

  This is the rest of what was staged in -next for the gcc-plugins, and
  comes in three patches, largest first:

   - mark "easy" structs with __randomize_layout

   - mark task_struct with an optional anonymous struct to isolate the
     __randomize_layout section

   - mark structs to opt _out_ of automated marking (which will come
     later)

  And, FWIW, this continues to pass allmodconfig (normal and patched to
  enable gcc-plugins) builds of x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, and
  s390 for me"

<content type='text'>
This marks many critical kernel structures for randomization. These are
structures that have been targeted in the past in security exploits, or
contain functions pointers, pointers to function pointer tables, lists,
workqueues, ref-counters, credentials, permissions, or are otherwise
sensitive. This initial list was extracted from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's
code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding
of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and
don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

Left out of this list is task_struct, which requires special handling
and will be covered in a subsequent patch.

The prototypes of try_module_get are different with different macro.
When enable module and module unload, it returns bool, but others not.
Make the return type for try_module_get consistent across all module
config options.

<title>locking/lockdep: Handle statically initialized PER_CPU locks properly</title>

<id>urn:sha1:383776fa7527745224446337f2dcfb0f0d1b8b56</id>
<content type='text'>
If a PER_CPU struct which contains a spin_lock is statically initialized
via:

DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct foo, bla) = {
	.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(bla.lock)
};

then lockdep assigns a seperate key to each lock because the logic for
assigning a key to statically initialized locks is to use the address as
the key. With per CPU locks the address is obvioulsy different on each CPU.

That's wrong, because all locks should have the same key.

To solve this the following modifications are required:

 1) Extend the is_kernel/module_percpu_addr() functions to hand back the
    canonical address of the per CPU address, i.e. the per CPU address
    minus the per CPU offset.

 2) Check the lock address with these functions and if the per CPU check
    matches use the returned canonical address as the lock key, so all per
    CPU locks have the same key.

 3) Move the static_obj(key) check into look_up_lock_class() so this check
    can be avoided for statically initialized per CPU locks.  That's
    required because the canonical address fails the static_obj(key) check
    for obvious reasons.
