module: Fix locking in symbol_put_addr()

2015-11-09T18:12:59Z

commit 275d7d44d802ef271a42dc87ac091a495ba72fc5 upstream. Poma (on the way to another bug) reported an assertion triggering: [] module_assert_mutex_or_preempt+0x49/0x90 [] __module_address+0x32/0x150 [] __module_text_address+0x16/0x70 [] symbol_put_addr+0x29/0x40 [] dvb_frontend_detach+0x7d/0x90 [dvb_core] Laura Abbott produced a patch which lead us to inspect symbol_put_addr(). This function has a comment claiming it doesn't need to disable preemption around the module lookup because it holds a reference to the module it wants to find, which therefore cannot go away. This is wrong (and a false optimization too, preempt_disable() is really rather cheap, and I doubt any of this is on uber critical paths, otherwise it would've retained a pointer to the actual module anyway and avoided the second lookup). While its true that the module cannot go away while we hold a reference on it, the data structure we do the lookup in very much _CAN_ change while we do the lookup. Therefore fix the comment and add the required preempt_disable().

workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu

2015-10-27T00:44:50Z

commit 874bbfe600a660cba9c776b3957b1ce393151b76 upstream. My system keeps crashing with below message. vmstat_update() schedules a delayed work in current cpu and expects the work runs in the cpu. schedule_delayed_work() is expected to make delayed work run in local cpu. The problem is timer can be migrated with NO_HZ. __queue_work() queues work in timer handler, which could run in a different cpu other than where the delayed work is scheduled. The end result is the delayed work runs in different cpu. The patch makes __queue_delayed_work records local cpu earlier. Where the timer runs doesn't change where the work runs with the change.

genirq: Fix race in register_irq_proc()

2015-10-22T21:37:53Z

commit 95c2b17534654829db428f11bcf4297c059a2a7e upstream. Per-IRQ directories in procfs are created only when a handler is first added to the irqdesc, not when the irqdesc is created. In the case of a shared IRQ, multiple tasks can race to create a directory. This race condition seems to have been present forever, but is easier to hit with async probing.

unshare: Unsharing a thread does not require unsharing a vm

2015-10-01T10:07:28Z

commit 12c641ab8270f787dfcce08b5f20ce8b65008096 upstream. In the logic in the initial commit of unshare made creating a new thread group for a process, contingent upon creating a new memory address space for that process. That is wrong. Two separate processes in different thread groups can share a memory address space and clone allows creation of such proceses. This is significant because it was observed that mm_users > 1 does not mean that a process is multi-threaded, as reading /proc/PID/maps temporarily increments mm_users, which allows other processes to (accidentally) interfere with unshare() calls. Correct the check in check_unshare_flags() to test for !thread_group_empty() for CLONE_THREAD, CLONE_SIGHAND, and CLONE_VM. For sighand->count > 1 for CLONE_SIGHAND and CLONE_VM. For !current_is_single_threaded instead of mm_users > 1 for CLONE_VM. By using the correct checks in unshare this removes the possibility of an accidental denial of service attack. Additionally using the correct checks in unshare ensures that only an explicit unshare(CLONE_VM) can possibly trigger the slow path of current_is_single_threaded(). As an explict unshare(CLONE_VM) is pointless it is not expected there are many applications that make that call.

perf: Fix fasync handling on inherited events

2015-09-13T16:07:59Z

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.

signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_from_user32

2015-08-17T03:51:42Z

commit 3c00cb5e68dc719f2fc73a33b1b230aadfcb1309 upstream. This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a positive si_code value. The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_to_user. copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits of si_code. This fixes the following information leaks: x86: 8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32. (si_code = __SI_CHLD) x86: 100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1) sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a 64-bit process. (si_code = any) parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code to a different process. These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_to_user

2015-08-17T03:51:42Z

commit 26135022f85105ad725cda103fa069e29e83bd16 upstream. This function may copy the si_addr_lsb, si_lower and si_upper fields to user mode when they haven't been initialized, which can leak kernel stack data to user mode. Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same si_code value is shared between multiple signals. This is solved by checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.

genirq: Prevent resend to interrupts marked IRQ_NESTED_THREAD

2015-08-10T19:20:30Z

commit 75a06189fc508a2acf470b0b12710362ffb2c4b1 upstream. The resend mechanism happily calls the interrupt handler of interrupts which are marked IRQ_NESTED_THREAD from softirq context. This can result in crashes because the interrupt handler is not the proper way to invoke the device handlers. They must be invoked via handle_nested_irq. Prevent the resend even if the interrupt has no valid parent irq set. Its better to have a lost interrupt than a crashing machine.

tracing: Have branch tracer use recursive field of task struct

2015-08-03T16:29:45Z

commit 6224beb12e190ff11f3c7d4bf50cb2922878f600 upstream. Fengguang Wu's tests triggered a bug in the branch tracer's start up test when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT set. This was because that config adds some debug logic in the per cpu field, which calls back into the branch tracer. The branch tracer has its own recursive checks, but uses a per cpu variable to implement it. If retrieving the per cpu variable calls back into the branch tracer, you can see how things will break. Instead of using a per cpu variable, use the trace_recursion field of the current task struct. Simply set a bit when entering the branch tracing and clear it when leaving. If the bit is set on entry, just don't do the tracing. There's also the case with lockdep, as the local_irq_save() called before the recursion can also trigger code that can call back into the function. Changing that to a raw_local_irq_save() will protect that as well. This prevents the recursion and the inevitable crash that follows.

tracing/filter: Do not allow infix to exceed end of string

2015-08-03T16:29:45Z

commit 6b88f44e161b9ee2a803e5b2b1fbcf4e20e8b980 upstream. While debugging a WARN_ON() for filtering, I found that it is possible for the filter string to be referenced after its end. With the filter: # echo '>' > /sys/kernel/debug/events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter The filter_parse() function can call infix_get_op() which calls infix_advance() that updates the infix filter pointers for the cnt and tail without checking if the filter is already at the end, which will put the cnt to zero and the tail beyond the end. The loop then calls infix_next() that has ps->infix.cnt--; return ps->infix.string[ps->infix.tail++]; The cnt will now be below zero, and the tail that is returned is already passed the end of the filter string. So far the allocation of the filter string usually has some buffer that is zeroed out, but if the filter string is of the exact size of the allocated buffer there's no guarantee that the charater after the nul terminating character will be zero. Luckily, only root can write to the filter. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
