timekeeping: Use proper seqcount initializer

2019-02-12T19:02:14Z

[ Upstream commit ce10a5b3954f2514af726beb78ed8d7350c5e41c ] tk_core.seq is initialized open coded, but that misses to initialize the lockdep map when lockdep is enabled. Lockdep splats involving tk_core seq consequently lack a name and are hard to read. Use the proper initializer which takes care of the lockdep map initialization.

posix-cpu-timers: Unbreak timer rearming

2019-01-31T07:15:42Z

commit 93ad0fc088c5b4631f796c995bdd27a082ef33a6 upstream. The recent commit which prevented a division by 0 issue in the alarm timer code broke posix CPU timers as an unwanted side effect. The reason is that the common rearm code checks for timer->it_interval being 0 now. What went unnoticed is that the posix cpu timer setup does not initialize timer->it_interval as it stores the interval in CPU timer specific storage. The reason for the separate storage is historical as the posix CPU timers always had a 64bit nanoseconds representation internally while timer->it_interval is type ktime_t which used to be a modified timespec representation on 32bit machines. Instead of reverting the offending commit and fixing the alarmtimer issue in the alarmtimer code, store the interval in timer->it_interval at CPU timer setup time so the common code check works. This also repairs the existing inconistency of the posix CPU timer code which kept a single shot timer armed despite of the interval being 0. The separate storage can be removed in mainline, but that needs to be a separate commit as the current one has to be backported to stable kernels.

posix-timers: Fix division by zero bug

2018-12-17T16:35:45Z

The signal delivery path of posix-timers can try to rearm the timer even if the interval is zero. That's handled for the common case (hrtimer) but not for alarm timers. In that case the forwarding function raises a division by zero exception. The handling for hrtimer based posix timers is wrong because it marks the timer as active despite the fact that it is stopped. Move the check from common_hrtimer_rearm() to posixtimer_rearm() to cure both issues.

posix-cpu-timers: Remove useless call to check_dl_overrun()

2018-11-08T06:43:35Z

check_dl_overrun() is used to send a SIGXCPU to users that asked to be informed when a SCHED_DEADLINE runtime overruns occur. The function is called by check_thread_timers() already, so the call in check_process_timers() is redundant/wrong (even though harmless). Remove it.

2018-10-24T10:22:39Z

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman: "I have been slowly sorting out siginfo and this is the culmination of that work. The primary result is in several ways the signal infrastructure has been made less error prone. The code has been updated so that manually specifying SEND_SIG_FORCED is never necessary. The conversion to the new siginfo sending functions is now complete, which makes it difficult to send a signal without filling in the proper siginfo fields. At the tail end of the patchset comes the optimization of decreasing the size of struct siginfo in the kernel from 128 bytes to about 48 bytes on 64bit. The fundamental observation that enables this is by definition none of the known ways to use struct siginfo uses the extra bytes. This comes at the cost of a small user space observable difference. For the rare case of siginfo being injected into the kernel only what can be copied into kernel_siginfo is delivered to the destination, the rest of the bytes are set to 0. For cases where the signal and the si_code are known this is safe, because we know those bytes are not used. For cases where the signal and si_code combination is unknown the bits that won't fit into struct kernel_siginfo are tested to verify they are zero, and the send fails if they are not. I made an extensive search through userspace code and I could not find anything that would break because of the above change. If it turns out I did break something it will take just the revert of a single change to restore kernel_siginfo to the same size as userspace siginfo. Testing did reveal dependencies on preferring the signo passed to sigqueueinfo over si->signo, so bit the bullet and added the complexity necessary to handle that case. Testing also revealed bad things can happen if a negative signal number is passed into the system calls. Something no sane application will do but something a malicious program or a fuzzer might do. So I have fixed the code that performs the bounds checks to ensure negative signal numbers are handled" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (80 commits) signal: Guard against negative signal numbers in copy_siginfo_from_user32 signal: Guard against negative signal numbers in copy_siginfo_from_user signal: In sigqueueinfo prefer sig not si_signo signal: Use a smaller struct siginfo in the kernel signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfo signal: Introduce copy_siginfo_from_user and use it's return value signal: Remove the need for __ARCH_SI_PREABLE_SIZE and SI_PAD_SIZE signal: Fail sigqueueinfo if si_signo != sig signal/sparc: Move EMT_TAGOVF into the generic siginfo.h signal/unicore32: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate signal/unicore32: Generate siginfo in ucs32_notify_die signal/unicore32: Use send_sig_fault where appropriate signal/arc: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate signal/arc: Push siginfo generation into unhandled_exception signal/ia64: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate signal/ia64: Use the force_sig(SIGSEGV,...) in ia64_rt_sigreturn signal/ia64: Use the generic force_sigsegv in setup_frame signal/arm/kvm: Use send_sig_mceerr signal/arm: Use send_sig_fault where appropriate signal/arm: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate ...

signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfo

2018-10-03T14:47:43Z

Linus recently observed that if we did not worry about the padding member in struct siginfo it is only about 48 bytes, and 48 bytes is much nicer than 128 bytes for allocating on the stack and copying around in the kernel. The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in the kernel that embed struct siginfo. So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo. Keeping the traditional name for the userspace definition. While the version that is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to 128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo. The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have the same field offsets. To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same size as siginfo. The reduction in size comes in a following change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"
