perf: Cure event->pending_disable race

2016-04-20T06:40:45Z

commit 28a967c3a2f99fa3b5f762f25cb2a319d933571b upstream. Because event_sched_out() checks event->pending_disable _before_ actually disabling the event, it can happen that the event fires after it checks but before it gets disabled. This would leave event->pending_disable set and the queued irq_work will try and process it. However, if the event trigger was during schedule(), the event might have been de-scheduled by the time the irq_work runs, and perf_event_disable_local() will fail. Fix this by checking event->pending_disable _after_ we call event->pmu->del(). This depends on the latter being a compiler barrier, such that the compiler does not lift the load and re-creates the problem.

ptrace: use fsuid, fsgid, effective creds for fs access checks

2016-02-25T19:58:52Z

commit caaee6234d05a58c5b4d05e7bf766131b810a657 upstream. By checking the effective credentials instead of the real UID / permitted capabilities, ensure that the calling process actually intended to use its credentials. To ensure that all ptrace checks use the correct caller credentials (e.g. in case out-of-tree code or newly added code omits the PTRACE_MODE_*CREDS flag), use two new flags and require one of them to be set. The problem was that when a privileged task had temporarily dropped its privileges, e.g. by calling setreuid(0, user_uid), with the intent to perform following syscalls with the credentials of a user, it still passed ptrace access checks that the user would not be able to pass. While an attacker should not be able to convince the privileged task to perform a ptrace() syscall, this is a problem because the ptrace access check is reused for things in procfs. In particular, the following somewhat interesting procfs entries only rely on ptrace access checks: /proc/$pid/stat - uses the check for determining whether pointers should be visible, useful for bypassing ASLR /proc/$pid/maps - also useful for bypassing ASLR /proc/$pid/cwd - useful for gaining access to restricted directories that contain files with lax permissions, e.g. in this scenario: lrwxrwxrwx root root /proc/13020/cwd -> /root/foobar drwx------ root root /root drwxr-xr-x root root /root/foobar -rw-r--r-- root root /root/foobar/secret Therefore, on a system where a root-owned mode 6755 binary changes its effective credentials as described and then dumps a user-specified file, this could be used by an attacker to reveal the memory layout of root's processes or reveal the contents of files he is not allowed to access (through /proc/$pid/cwd).

perf: Fix inherited events vs. tracepoint filters

2016-02-25T19:58:52Z

commit b71b437eedaed985062492565d9d421d975ae845 upstream. Arnaldo reported that tracepoint filters seem to misbehave (ie. not apply) on inherited events. The fix is obvious; filters are only set on the actual (parent) event, use the normal pattern of using this parent event for filters. This is safe because each child event has a reference to it.

commit c7999c6f3fed9e383d3131474588f282ae6d56b9 upstream. I ran the perf fuzzer, which triggered some WARN()s which are due to trying to stop/restart an event on the wrong CPU.

perf: Fix fasync handling on inherited events

2015-09-13T16:10:48Z

commit fed66e2cdd4f127a43fd11b8d92a99bdd429528c upstream. Vince reported that the fasync signal stuff doesn't work proper for inherited events. So fix that. Installing fasync allocates memory and sets filp->f_flags |= FASYNC, which upon the demise of the file descriptor ensures the allocation is freed and state is updated. Now for perf, we can have the events stick around for a while after the original FD is dead because of references from child events. So we cannot copy the fasync pointer around. We can however consistently use the parent's fasync, as that will be updated.

perf: Fix irq_work 'tail' recursion

2015-04-13T12:03:01Z

commit d525211f9d1be8b523ec7633f080f2116f5ea536 upstream. Vince reported a watchdog lockup like: [] perf_tp_event+0xc4/0x210 [] perf_trace_lock+0x12a/0x160 [] lock_release+0x130/0x260 [] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x24/0x40 [] do_send_sig_info+0x5d/0x80 [] send_sigio_to_task+0x12f/0x1a0 [] send_sigio+0xae/0x100 [] kill_fasync+0x97/0xf0 [] perf_event_wakeup+0xd4/0xf0 [] perf_pending_event+0x33/0x60 [] irq_work_run_list+0x4c/0x80 [] irq_work_run+0x18/0x40 [] smp_trace_irq_work_interrupt+0x3f/0xc0 [] trace_irq_work_interrupt+0x6d/0x80 Which is caused by an irq_work generating new irq_work and therefore not allowing forward progress. This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another perf event (tracepoint stuff) which in turn generates an irq_work ad infinitum. Avoid this by raising the recursion counter in the irq_work -- which effectively disables all software events (including tracepoints) from actually triggering again.

perf: Fix events installation during moving group

2015-01-16T14:59:34Z

commit 9fc81d87420d0d3fd62d5e5529972c0ad9eab9cc upstream. We allow PMU driver to change the cpu on which the event should be installed to. This happened in patch: e2d37cd213dc ("perf: Allow the PMU driver to choose the CPU on which to install events") This patch also forces all the group members to follow the currently opened events cpu if the group happened to be moved. This and the change of event->cpu in perf_install_in_context() function introduced in: 0cda4c023132 ("perf: Introduce perf_pmu_migrate_context()") forces group members to change their event->cpu, if the currently-opened-event's PMU changed the cpu and there is a group move. Above behaviour causes problem for breakpoint events, which uses event->cpu to touch cpu specific data for breakpoints accounting. By changing event->cpu, some breakpoints slots were wrongly accounted for given cpu. Vinces's perf fuzzer hit this issue and caused following WARN on my setup: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 20214 at arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:119 arch_install_hw_breakpoint+0x142/0x150() Can't find any breakpoint slot [...] This patch changes the group moving code to keep the event's original cpu.

uprobes, x86: Fix _TIF_UPROBE vs _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME

2014-12-06T23:55:33Z

commit 82975bc6a6df743b9a01810fb32cb65d0ec5d60b upstream. x86 call do_notify_resume on paranoid returns if TIF_UPROBE is set but not on non-paranoid returns. I suspect that this is a mistake and that the code only works because int3 is paranoid. Setting _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in the uprobe code was probably a workaround for the x86 bug. With that bug fixed, we can remove _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME from the uprobes code.

perf: Handle compat ioctl

2014-11-21T17:23:05Z

commit b3f207855f57b9c8f43a547a801340bb5cbc59e5 upstream. When running a 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel (eg. i386 application on x86_64 kernel or 32-bit arm userspace on arm64 kernel) some of the perf ioctls must be treated with special care, as they have a pointer size encoded in the command. For example, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID in 32-bit world will be encoded as 0x80042407, but 64-bit kernel will expect 0x80082407. In result the ioctl will fail returning -ENOTTY. This patch solves the problem by adding code fixing up the size as compat_ioctl file operation.

commit 6c72e3501d0d62fc064d3680e5234f3463ec5a86 upstream. Oleg noticed that a cleanup by Sylvain actually uncovered a bug; by calling perf_event_free_task() when failing sched_fork() we will not yet have done the memset() on ->perf_event_ctxp[] and will therefore try and 'free' the inherited contexts, which are still in use by the parent process.
