um: Don't discard .text.exit section

2016-09-07T06:34:44+00:00

commit dad2232844073295c64e9cc2d734a0ade043e0f6 upstream. Commit e41f501d3912 ("vmlinux.lds: account for destructor sections") added '.text.exit' to EXIT_TEXT which is discarded at link time by default. This breaks compilation of UML: `.text.exit' referenced in section `.fini_array' of /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o): defined in discarded section `.text.exit' of /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o) Apparently UML doesn't want to discard exit text, so let's place all EXIT_TEXT sections in .exit.text.

um, pkeys: Add UML arch_*_access_permitted() methods

2016-02-18T18:46:28+00:00

UML has a special mmu_context.h and needs updates whenever the generic one is updated.

um: asm/page.h: remove the pte_high member from struct pte_t

2016-02-06T02:10:40+00:00

Commit 16da306849d0 ("um: kill pfn_t") introduced a compile warning for defconfig (SUBARCH=i386): arch/um/kernel/skas/mmu.c:38:206: warning: right shift count >= width of type [-Wshift-count-overflow] Aforementioned patch changes the definition of the phys_to_pfn() macro from ((pfn_t) ((p) >> PAGE_SHIFT)) to ((p) >> PAGE_SHIFT) This effectively changes the phys_to_pfn() expansion's type from unsigned long long to unsigned long. Through the callchain init_stub_pte() => mk_pte(), the expansion of phys_to_pfn() is (indirectly) fed into the 'phys' argument of the pte_set_val(pte, phys, prot) macro, eventually leading to (pte).pte_high = (phys) >> 32; This results in the warning from above. Since UML only deals with 32 bit addresses, the upper 32 bits from 'phys' used to be always zero anyway. Also, all page protection flags defined by UML don't use any bits beyond bit 9. Since the contents of a PTE are defined within architecture scope only, the ->pte_high member can be safely removed. Remove the ->pte_high member from struct pte_t. Rename ->pte_low to ->pte. Adapt the pte helper macros in arch/um/include/asm/page.h. Noteworthy is the pte_copy() macro where a smp_wmb() gets dropped. This write barrier doesn't seem to be paired with any read barrier though and thus, was useless anyway.

um: kill pfn_t

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

The core has developed a need for a "pfn_t" type [1]. Convert the usage of pfn_t by usermode-linux to an unsigned long, and update pfn_to_phys() to drop its expectation of a typed pfn.

um: Add seccomp support

2016-01-10T20:49:49+00:00

This brings SECCOMP_MODE_STRICT and SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER support through prctl(2) and seccomp(2) to User-mode Linux for i386 and x86_64 subarchitectures. secure_computing() is called first in handle_syscall() so that the syscall emulation will be aborted quickly if matching a seccomp rule.

um: Add full asm/syscall.h support

2016-01-10T20:49:49+00:00

Add subarchitecture-independent implementation of asm-generic/syscall.h allowing access to user system call parameters and results: * syscall_get_nr() * syscall_rollback() * syscall_get_error() * syscall_get_return_value() * syscall_set_return_value() * syscall_get_arguments() * syscall_set_arguments() * syscall_get_arch() provided by arch/x86/um/asm/syscall.h This provides the necessary syscall helpers needed by HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER plus syscall_get_error().

um: Do not change hard IRQ flags in soft IRQ processing

2016-01-10T20:49:48+00:00

Software IRQ processing in generic architectures assumes that the exit out of hard IRQ may have re-enabled interrupts (some architectures may have an implicit EOI). It presumes them enabled and toggles the flags once more just in case unless this is turned off in the architecture specific hardirq.h by setting __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED This patch adds this to UML where due to the way IRQs are handled it is an optimization (it works fine without it too).

Merge branch 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile

2015-10-04T15:31:13+00:00

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

mm: clean up per architecture MM hook header files

2015-07-17T23:39:53+00:00

Commit 2ae416b142b6 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which doesn't need to define mm hooks. As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use of a generic header file included via each per architecture asm/include/Kbuild file. The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has to defined the arch_remap MM hook.
