time: Zero the upper 32-bits in __kernel_timespec on 32-bit

2019-12-13T07:42:18Z

commit 7b8474466ed97be458c825f34a85f2c2b84c3f95 upstream. On compat interfaces, the high order bits of nanoseconds should be zeroed out. This is because the application code or the libc do not guarantee zeroing of these. If used without zeroing, kernel might be at risk of using timespec values incorrectly. Originally it was handled correctly, but lost during is_compat_syscall() cleanup. Revert the condition back to check CONFIG_64BIT.

time: Validate user input in compat_settimeofday()

2019-07-07T10:05:40Z

The user value is validated after converting the timeval to a timespec, but for a wide range of negative tv_usec values the multiplication overflow turns them in positive numbers. So the 'validated later' is not catching the invalid input.

timekeeping: Force upper bound for setting CLOCK_REALTIME

2019-03-28T12:41:06Z

Several people reported testing failures after setting CLOCK_REALTIME close to the limits of the kernel internal representation in nanoseconds, i.e. year 2262. The failures are exposed in subsequent operations, i.e. when arming timers or when the advancing CLOCK_MONOTONIC makes the calculation of CLOCK_REALTIME overflow into negative space. Now people start to paper over the underlying problem by clamping calculations to the valid range, but that's just wrong because such workarounds will prevent detection of real issues as well. It is reasonable to force an upper bound for the various methods of setting CLOCK_REALTIME. Year 2262 is the absolute upper bound. Assume a maximum uptime of 30 years which is plenty enough even for esoteric embedded systems. That results in an upper bound of year 2232 for setting the time. Once that limit is reached in reality this limit is only a small part of the problem space. But until then this stops people from trying to paper over the problem at the wrong places.

y2038: rename old time and utime syscalls

2019-02-06T23:13:28Z

The time, stime, utime, utimes, and futimesat system calls are only used on older architectures, and we do not provide y2038 safe variants of them, as they are replaced by clock_gettime64, clock_settime64, and utimensat_time64. However, for consistency it seems better to have the 32-bit architectures that still use them call the "time32" entry points (leaving the traditional handlers for the 64-bit architectures), like we do for system calls that now require two versions. Note: We used to always define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME and __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME and only set __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_TIME and __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 for compat mode on 64-bit kernels. Now this is reversed: only 64-bit architectures set __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME/UTIME, while we need __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME32/UTIME32 for 32-bit architectures and compat mode. The resulting asm/unistd.h changes look a bit counterintuitive. This is only a cleanup patch and it should not change any behavior.

y2038: syscalls: rename y2038 compat syscalls

2019-02-06T23:13:27Z

A lot of system calls that pass a time_t somewhere have an implementation using a COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() on 64-bit architectures, and have been reworked so that this implementation can now be used on 32-bit architectures as well. The missing step is to redefine them using the regular SYSCALL_DEFINEx() to get them out of the compat namespace and make it possible to build them on 32-bit architectures. Any system call that ends in 'time' gets a '32' suffix on its name for that version, while the others get a '_time32' suffix, to distinguish them from the normal version, which takes a 64-bit time argument in the future. In this step, only 64-bit architectures are changed, doing this rename first lets us avoid touching the 32-bit architectures twice. Acked-by: Catalin Marinas Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

timex: change syscalls to use struct __kernel_timex

2019-02-06T23:13:27Z

struct timex is not y2038 safe. Switch all the syscall apis to use y2038 safe __kernel_timex. Note that sys_adjtimex() does not have a y2038 safe solution. C libraries can implement it by calling clock_adjtime(CLOCK_REALTIME, ...). Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

timex: use __kernel_timex internally

2019-02-06T23:13:27Z

struct timex is not y2038 safe. Replace all uses of timex with y2038 safe __kernel_timex. Note that struct __kernel_timex is an ABI interface definition. We could define a new structure based on __kernel_timex that is only available internally instead. Right now, there isn't a strong motivation for this as the structure is isolated to a few defined struct timex interfaces and such a structure would be exactly the same as struct timex.

time: make adjtime compat handling available for 32 bit

2019-02-06T23:13:27Z

We want to reuse the compat_timex handling on 32-bit architectures the same way we are using the compat handling for timespec when moving to 64-bit time_t. Move all definitions related to compat_timex out of the compat code into the normal timekeeping code, along with a rename to old_timex32, corresponding to the timespec/timeval structures, and make it controlled by CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME, which 32-bit architectures will then select.
