[ Upstream commit 975776841e689dd8ba36df9fa72ac3eca3c2957a ]

kernel/sched/isolation.c obviously makes no sense without CONFIG_SMP, but
the Kconfig entry we have right now:

	config CPU_ISOLATION
		bool "CPU isolation"
		depends on SMP || COMPILE_TEST

allows the creation of pointless .config's which cause
build failures.

commit 5daa0c35a1f0e7a6c3b8ba9cb721e7d1ace6e619 upstream.

The kernel cannot currently self-parse BTF containing Rust debug
information. pahole uses the language of the CU to determine whether to
filter out debug information when generating the BTF. When LTO is
enabled, Rust code can cross CU boundaries, resulting in Rust debug
information in CUs labeled as C. This results in a system which cannot
parse its own BTF.

<title>initramfs: avoid filename buffer overrun</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f892ddcf9f645380c358e73653cb0900f6bc9eb8</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e017671f534dd3f568db9e47b0583e853d2da9b5 ]

The initramfs filename field is defined in
Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/buffer-format.rst as:

 37 cpio_file := ALGN(4) + cpio_header + filename + "\0" + ALGN(4) + data
...
 55 ============= ================== =========================
 56 Field name    Field size         Meaning
 57 ============= ================== =========================
...
 70 c_namesize    8 bytes            Length of filename, including final \0

When extracting an initramfs cpio archive, the kernel's do_name() path
handler assumes a zero-terminated path at @collected, passing it
directly to filp_open() / init_mkdir() / init_mknod().

If a specially crafted cpio entry carries a non-zero-terminated filename
and is followed by uninitialized memory, then a file may be created with
trailing characters that represent the uninitialized memory. The ability
to create an initramfs entry would imply already having full control of
the system, so the buffer overrun shouldn't be considered a security
vulnerability.

Append the output of the following bash script to an existing initramfs
and observe any created /initramfs_test_fname_overrunAA* path. E.g.
  ./reproducer.sh | gzip &gt;&gt; /myinitramfs

It's easiest to observe non-zero uninitialized memory when the output is
gzipped, as it'll overflow the heap allocated @out_buf in __gunzip(),
rather than the initrd_start+initrd_size block.

---- reproducer.sh ----
nilchar="A"	# change to "\0" to properly zero terminate / pad
magic="070701"
ino=1
mode=$(( 0100777 ))
uid=0
gid=0
nlink=1
mtime=1
filesize=0
devmajor=0
devminor=1
rdevmajor=0
rdevminor=0
csum=0
fname="initramfs_test_fname_overrun"
namelen=$(( ${#fname} + 1 ))	# plus one to account for terminator

printf "%s%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%08x%s" \
	$magic $ino $mode $uid $gid $nlink $mtime $filesize \
	$devmajor $devminor $rdevmajor $rdevminor $namelen $csum $fname

termpadlen=$(( 1 + ((4 - ((110 + $namelen) &amp; 3)) % 4) ))
printf "%.s${nilchar}" $(seq 1 $termpadlen)
---- reproducer.sh ----

Symlink filename fields handled in do_symlink() won't overrun past the
data segment, due to the explicit zero-termination of the symlink
target.

Fix filename buffer overrun by aborting the initramfs FSM if any cpio
entry doesn't carry a zero-terminator at the expected (name_len - 1)
offset.

[ Upstream commit aacf93e87f0d808ef46e621aa56caea336b4433c ]

Another oddity in these config entries is their default value can fall
back to 'n', which is a value for bool or tristate symbols.

The '|| echo n' is an incorrect workaround to avoid the syntax error.
This is not a big deal, as the entry is hidden by 'depends on RUST' in
situations where '$(RUSTC) --version' or '$(BINDGEN) --version' fails.
Anyway, it looks odd.

The default of a string type symbol should be a double-quoted string
literal. Turn it into an empty string when the version command fails.

[ Upstream commit 5ce86c6c861352c9346ebb5c96ed70cb67414aa3 ]

While this is a somewhat unusual case, I encountered odd error messages
when I ran Kconfig in a foreign architecture chroot.

  $ make allmodconfig
  sh: 1: rustc: not found
  sh: 1: bindgen: not found
  #
  # configuration written to .config
  #

The successful execution of 'command -v rustc' does not necessarily mean
that 'rustc --version' will succeed.

  $ sh -c 'command -v rustc'
  /home/masahiro/.cargo/bin/rustc
  $ sh -c 'rustc --version'
  sh: 1: rustc: not found

Here, 'rustc' is built for x86, and I ran it in an arm64 system.

The current code:

  command -v $(RUSTC) &gt;/dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1 &amp;&amp; $(RUSTC) --version || echo n

can be turned into:

  command -v $(RUSTC) &gt;/dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1 &amp;&amp; $(RUSTC) --version 2&gt;/dev/null || echo n

However, I did not understand the necessity of 'command -v $(RUSTC)'.

I simplified it to:

  $(RUSTC) --version 2&gt;/dev/null || echo n

[ Upstream commit 9e98db17837093cb0f4dcfcc3524739d93249c45 ]

`bindgen` 0.69.0 contains a bug: `--version` does not work without
providing a header [1]:

    error: the following required arguments were not provided:
      &lt;HEADER&gt;

    Usage: bindgen &lt;FLAGS&gt; &lt;OPTIONS&gt; &lt;HEADER&gt; -- &lt;CLANG_ARGS&gt;...

Thus, in preparation for supporting several `bindgen` versions, work
around the issue by passing a dummy argument.

Include a comment so that we can remove the workaround in the future.

<content type='text'>
commit f126745da81783fb1d082e67bf14c6795e489a88 upstream.

When using the shadow call stack sanitizer, all code must be compiled
with the -ffixed-x18 flag, but this flag is not currently being passed
to Rust. This results in crashes that are extremely difficult to debug.

To ensure that nobody else has to go through the same debugging session
that I had to, prevent configurations that enable both SHADOW_CALL_STACK
and RUST.

It is rather common for people to backport 724a75ac9542 ("arm64: rust:
Enable Rust support for AArch64"), so I recommend applying this fix all
the way back to 6.1.

commit 8933cf4651e02853ca679be7b2d978dfcdcc5e0c upstream.

On RISC-V and arm64, and presumably x86, if CFI_CLANG is enabled,
loading a rust module will trigger a kernel panic. Support for
sanitisers, including kcfi (CFI_CLANG), is in the works, but for now
they're nightly-only options in rustc. Make RUST depend on !CFI_CLANG
to prevent configuring a kernel without symmetrical support for kfi.

[ Matthew Maurer writes [1]:

    This patch is fine by me - the last patch needed for KCFI to be
    functional in Rust just landed upstream last night, so we should
    revisit this (in the form of enabling it) once we move to
    `rustc-1.79.0` or later.

  Ramon de C Valle also gave feedback [2] on the status of KCFI for
  Rust and created a tracking issue [3] in upstream Rust.   - Miguel ]

commit 7d49f53af4b988b188d3932deac2c9c80fd7d9ce upstream.

This was originally part of commit 4b9a68f2e59a0 ("rust: add support for
static synchronisation primitives") from the old Rust branch, which used
module constructors to initialize globals containing various
synchronisation primitives with pin-init. That commit has never been
upstreamed, but the `select CONSTRUCTORS` statement ended up being
included in the patch that initially added Rust support to the Linux
Kernel.

We are not using module constructors, so let's remove the select.
