This eliminates the following sparse warning: init/main.c:306:6: warning: symbol 'xbc_namebuf' was not declared. Should it be static?

kprobes: tracing/kprobes: Fix to kill kprobes on initmem after boot

2020-09-18T18:27:24Z

Since kprobe_event= cmdline option allows user to put kprobes on the functions in initmem, kprobe has to make such probes gone after boot. Currently the probes on the init functions in modules will be handled by module callback, but the kernel init text isn't handled. Without this, kprobes may access non-exist text area to disable or remove it.

Merge tag 'trace-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

2020-08-08T01:29:15Z

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - The biggest news in that the tracing ring buffer can now time events that interrupted other ring buffer events. Before this change, if an interrupt came in while recording another event, and that interrupt also had an event, those events would all have the same time stamp as the event it interrupted. Now, with the new design, those events will have a unique time stamp and rightfully display the time for those events that were recorded while interrupting another event. - Bootconfig how has an "override" operator that lets the users have a default config, but then add options to override the default. - A fix was made to properly filter function graph tracing to the ftrace PIDs. This came in at the end of the -rc cycle, and needs to be backported. - Several clean ups, performance updates, and minor fixes as well. * tag 'trace-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (39 commits) tracing: Add trace_array_init_printk() to initialize instance trace_printk() buffers kprobes: Fix compiler warning for !CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE tracing: Use trace_sched_process_free() instead of exit() for pid tracing bootconfig: Fix to find the initargs correctly Documentation: bootconfig: Add bootconfig override operator tools/bootconfig: Add testcases for value override operator lib/bootconfig: Add override operator support kprobes: Remove show_registers() function prototype tracing/uprobe: Remove dead code in trace_uprobe_register() kprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference at kprobe_ftrace_handler ftrace: Fix ftrace_trace_task return value tracepoint: Use __used attribute definitions from compiler_attributes.h tracepoint: Mark __tracepoint_string's __used trace : Have tracing buffer info use kvzalloc instead of kzalloc tracing: Remove outdated comment in stack handling ftrace: Do not let direct or IPMODIFY ftrace_ops be added to module and set trampolines ftrace: Setup correct FTRACE_FL_REGS flags for module tracing/hwlat: Honor the tracing_cpumask tracing/hwlat: Drop the duplicate assignment in start_kthread() tracing: Save one trace_event->type by using __TRACE_LAST_TYPE ...

kasan, arm64: don't instrument functions that enable kasan

2020-08-07T18:33:28Z

This patch prepares Software Tag-Based KASAN for stack tagging support. With stack tagging enabled, KASAN tags stack variable in each function in its prologue. In start_kernel() stack variables get tagged before KASAN is enabled via setup_arch()->kasan_init(). As the result the tags for start_kernel()'s stack variables end up in the temporary shadow memory. Later when KASAN gets enabled, switched to normal shadow, and starts checking tags, this leads to false-positive reports, as proper tags are missing in normal shadow. Disable KASAN instrumentation for start_kernel(). Also disable it for arm64's setup_arch() as a precaution (it doesn't have any stack variables right now).

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman: "During the development of v5.7 I ran into bugs and quality of implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been diggin into exec and cleaning up what I can. This cycle I have been looking at different ideas and different implementations to see what is possible to improve exec, and cleaning the way exec interfaces with in kernel users. Only cleaning up the interfaces of exec with rest of the kernel has managed to stabalize and make it through review in time for v5.9-rc1 resulting in 2 sets of changes this cycle. - Implement kernel_execve - Make the user mode driver code a better citizen With kernel_execve the code size got a little larger as the copying of parameters from userspace and copying of parameters from userspace is now separate. The good news is kernel threads no longer need to play games with set_fs to use exec. Which when combined with the rest of Christophs set_fs changes should security bugs with set_fs much more difficult" * 'exec-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (23 commits) exec: Implement kernel_execve exec: Factor bprm_stack_limits out of prepare_arg_pages exec: Factor bprm_execve out of do_execve_common exec: Move bprm_mm_init into alloc_bprm exec: Move initialization of bprm->filename into alloc_bprm exec: Factor out alloc_bprm exec: Remove unnecessary spaces from binfmts.h umd: Stop using split_argv umd: Remove exit_umh bpfilter: Take advantage of the facilities of struct pid exit: Factor thread_group_exited out of pidfd_poll umd: Track user space drivers with struct pid bpfilter: Move bpfilter_umh back into init data exec: Remove do_execve_file umh: Stop calling do_execve_file umd: Transform fork_usermode_blob into fork_usermode_driver umd: Rename umd_info.cmdline umd_info.driver_name umd: For clarity rename umh_info umd_info umh: Separate the user mode driver and the user mode helper support umh: Remove call_usermodehelper_setup_file. ...

bootconfig: Fix to find the initargs correctly

2020-08-04T20:52:15Z

Since the parse_args() stops parsing at '--', bootconfig_params() will never get the '--' as param and initargs_found never be true. In the result, if we pass some init arguments via the bootconfig, those are always appended to the kernel command line with '--' even if the kernel command line already has '--'. To fix this correctly, check the return value of parse_args() and set initargs_found true if the return value is not an error but a valid address.

init: add an init_eaccess helper

Add a simple helper to check if a file exists based on kernel space file name and switch the early init code over to it. Note that this theoretically changes behavior as it always is based on the effective permissions. But during early init that doesn't make a difference. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
