Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"With the new ORC unwinder, ftrace stack tracing became disfunctional.
One was that ORC didn't know how to handle the ftrace callbacks in
general (which Josh fixed).
The other was that ORC would just bail if it hit a dynamically
allocated trampoline. Which means all ftrace stack tracing that
happens from the function tracer would produce no results (that
includes killing the max stack size tracer). I added a check to the
ORC unwinder to see if the trampoline belonged to ftrace, and if it
did, use the orc entry of the static trampoline that was used to
create the dynamic one (it would be identical).
Finally, I noticed that the skip values of the stack tracing were out
of whack. I went through and fixed them up"

This reverts commit 6cfb521ac0d5b97470883ff9b7facae264b7ab12.
Turns out distros do not want to make retpoline as part of their "ABI",
so this patch should not have been merged. Sorry Andi, this was my

Commit 513674b5a2c9 ("net: reevalulate autoflowlabel setting after
sysctl setting") removed the initialisation of
ipv6_pinfo::autoflowlabel and added a second flag to indicate
whether this field or the net namespace default should be used.
The getsockopt() handling for this case was not updated, so it
currently returns 0 for all sockets for which IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL is
not explicitly enabled. Fix it to return the effective value, whether
that has been set at the socket or net namespace level.

The function tracer can create a dynamically allocated trampoline that is
called by the function mcount or fentry hook that is used to call the
function callback that is registered. The problem is that the orc undwinder
will bail if it encounters one of these trampolines. This breaks the stack
trace of function callbacks, which include the stack tracer and setting the
stack trace for individual functions.
Since these dynamic trampolines are basically copies of the static ftrace
trampolines defined in ftrace_*.S, we do not need to create new orc entries
for the dynamic trampolines. Finding the return address on the stack will be
identical as the functions that were copied to create the dynamic
trampolines. When encountering a ftrace dynamic trampoline, we can just use
the orc entry of the ftrace static function that was copied for that
trampoline.

Tetsuo reported random crashes under memory pressure on 32-bit x86
system and tracked down to change that introduced
page_vma_mapped_walk().
The root cause of the issue is the faulty pointer math in check_pte().
As ->pte may point to an arbitrary page we have to check that they are
belong to the section before doing math. Otherwise it may lead to weird
results.
It wasn't noticed until now as mem_map[] is virtually contiguous on
flatmem or vmemmap sparsemem. Pointer arithmetic just works against all
'struct page' pointers. But with classic sparsemem, it doesn't because
each section memap is allocated separately and so consecutive pfns
crossing two sections might have struct pages at completely unrelated
addresses.
Let's restructure code a bit and replace pointer arithmetic with
operations on pfns.

This adds a new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR, that gives userspace
information about the underlying machine's level of vulnerability
to the recently announced vulnerabilities CVE-2017-5715,
CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5754, and whether the machine provides
instructions to assist software to work around the vulnerabilities.
The ioctl returns two u64 words describing characteristics of the
CPU and required software behaviour respectively, plus two mask
words which indicate which bits have been filled in by the kernel,
for extensibility. The bit definitions are the same as for the
new H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS hypercall.
There is also a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR, which
indicates whether the new ioctl is available.

Add a marker for retpoline to the module VERMAGIC. This catches the case
when a non RETPOLINE compiled module gets loaded into a retpoline kernel,
making it insecure.
It doesn't handle the case when retpoline has been runtime disabled. Even
in this case the match of the retcompile status will be enforced. This
implies that even with retpoline run time disabled all modules loaded need
to be recompiled.

Reason is that sch_ingress and sch_clsact are doing mini_qdisc_pair_init()
which sets up miniq pointers to cpu_{b,q}stats from the underlying qdisc.
Problem is that this cannot work since they are actually set up right after
the qdisc ->init() callback in qdisc_create(), so first packet going into
sch_handle_ingress() tries to call mini_qdisc_bstats_cpu_update() and we
therefore panic.
In order to fix this, allocation of {b,q}stats needs to happen before we
call into ->init(). In net-next, there's already such option through commit
d59f5ffa59d8 ("net: sched: a dflt qdisc may be used with per cpu stats").
However, the bug needs to be fixed in net still for 4.15. Thus, include
these bits to reduce any merge churn and reuse the static_flags field to
set TCQ_F_CPUSTATS, and remove the allocation from qdisc_create() since
there is no other user left. Prashant Bhole ran into the same issue but
for net-next, thus adding him below as well as co-author. Same issue was
also reported by Sandipan Das when using bcc.

Before commit:
e33a9bba85a8 ("sched/core: move IO scheduling accounting from io_schedule_timeout() into scheduler")
delayacct_blkio_end() was called after context-switching into the task which
completed I/O.
This resulted in double counting: the task would account a delay both waiting
for I/O and for time spent in the runqueue.
With e33a9bba85a8, delayacct_blkio_end() is called by try_to_wake_up().
In ttwu, we have not yet context-switched. This is more correct, in that
the delay accounting ends when the I/O is complete.
But delayacct_blkio_end() relies on 'get_current()', and we have not yet
context-switched into the task whose I/O completed. This results in the
wrong task having its delay accounting statistics updated.
Instead of doing that, pass the task_struct being woken to delayacct_blkio_end(),
so that it can update the statistics of the correct task.

Pull x86 pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains:
- a PTI bugfix to avoid setting reserved CR3 bits when PCID is
disabled. This seems to cause issues on a virtual machine at least
and is incorrect according to the AMD manual.
- a PTI bugfix which disables the perf BTS facility if PTI is
enabled. The BTS AUX buffer is not globally visible and causes the
CPU to fault when the mapping disappears on switching CR3 to user
space. A full fix which restores BTS on PTI is non trivial and will
be worked on.
- PTI bugfixes for EFI and trusted boot which make sure that the user
space visible page table entries have the NX bit cleared
- removal of dead code in the PTI pagetable setup functions
- add PTI documentation
- add a selftest for vsyscall to verify that the kernel actually
implements what it advertises.
- a sysfs interface to expose vulnerability and mitigation
information so there is a coherent way for users to retrieve the
status.
- the initial spectre_v2 mitigations, aka retpoline:
+ The necessary ASM thunk and compiler support
+ The ASM variants of retpoline and the conversion of affected ASM
code
+ Make LFENCE serializing on AMD so it can be used as speculation
trap
+ The RSB fill after vmexit
- initial objtool support for retpoline
As I said in the status mail this is the most of the set of patches
which should go into 4.15 except two straight forward patches still on
hold:
- the retpoline add on of LFENCE which waits for ACKs
- the RSB fill after context switch
Both should be ready to go early next week and with that we'll have

Merge misc fixlets from Andrew Morton:
"4 fixes"
* emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>:
tools/objtool/Makefile: don't assume sync-check.sh is executable
kdump: write correct address of mem_section into vmcoreinfo
kmemleak: allow to coexist with fault injection
MAINTAINERS, nilfs2: change project home URLs
|
|
Depending on configuration mem_section can now be an array or a pointer
to an array allocated dynamically. In most cases, we can continue to
refer to it as 'mem_section' regardless of what it is.
But there's one exception: '&mem_section' means "address of the array"
if mem_section is an array, but if mem_section is a pointer, it would
mean "address of the pointer".
We've stepped onto this in kdump code. VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(mem_section)
writes down address of pointer into vmcoreinfo, not array as we wanted.
Let's introduce VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL_ARRAY() that would handle the
situation correctly for both cases.

There are systems platform information management interfaces (such as
HOST2BMC) for which we cannot disable local loopback multicast traffic.
Separate disable_local_lb_mc and disable_local_lb_uc capability bits so
driver will not disable multicast loopback traffic if not supported.
(It is expected that Firmware will not set disable_local_lb_mc if
HOST2BMC is running for example.)
Function mlx5_nic_vport_update_local_lb will do best effort to
disable/enable UC/MC loopback traffic and return success only in case it
succeeded to changed all allowed by Firmware.
Adapt mlx5_ib and mlx5e to support the new cap bits.

====================
pull-request: bpf 2018-01-09
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Prevent out-of-bounds speculation in BPF maps by masking the
index after bounds checks in order to fix spectre v1, and
add an option BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON into Kconfig that allows for
removing the BPF interpreter from the kernel in favor of
JIT-only mode to make spectre v2 harder, from Alexei.
2) Remove false sharing of map refcount with max_entries which
was used in spectre v1, from Daniel.
3) Add a missing NULL psock check in sockmap in order to fix
a race, from John.
4) Fix test_align BPF selftest case since a recent change in
verifier rejects the bit-wise arithmetic on pointers
earlier but test_align update was missing, from Alexei.

In addition to commit b2157399cc98 ("bpf: prevent out-of-bounds
speculation") also change the layout of struct bpf_map such that
false sharing of fast-path members like max_entries is avoided
when the maps reference counter is altered. Therefore enforce
them to be placed into separate cachelines.
pahole dump after change:
struct bpf_map {
const struct bpf_map_ops * ops; /* 0 8 */
struct bpf_map * inner_map_meta; /* 8 8 */
void * security; /* 16 8 */
enum bpf_map_type map_type; /* 24 4 */
u32 key_size; /* 28 4 */
u32 value_size; /* 32 4 */
u32 max_entries; /* 36 4 */
u32 map_flags; /* 40 4 */
u32 pages; /* 44 4 */
u32 id; /* 48 4 */
int numa_node; /* 52 4 */
bool unpriv_array; /* 56 1 */
/* XXX 7 bytes hole, try to pack */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
struct user_struct * user; /* 64 8 */
atomic_t refcnt; /* 72 4 */
atomic_t usercnt; /* 76 4 */
struct work_struct work; /* 80 32 */
char name[16]; /* 112 16 */
/* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
/* size: 128, cachelines: 2, members: 17 */
/* sum members: 121, holes: 1, sum holes: 7 */
};
Now all entries in the first cacheline are read only throughout
the life time of the map, set up once during map creation. Overall
struct size and number of cachelines doesn't change from the
reordering. struct bpf_map is usually first member and embedded
in map structs in specific map implementations, so also avoid those
members to sit at the end where it could potentially share the
cacheline with first map values e.g. in the array since remote
CPUs could trigger map updates just as well for those (easily
dirtying members like max_entries intentionally as well) while
having subsequent values in cache.
Quoting from Google's Project Zero blog [1]:
Additionally, at least on the Intel machine on which this was
tested, bouncing modified cache lines between cores is slow,
apparently because the MESI protocol is used for cache coherence
[8]. Changing the reference counter of an eBPF array on one
physical CPU core causes the cache line containing the reference
counter to be bounced over to that CPU core, making reads of the
reference counter on all other CPU cores slow until the changed
reference counter has been written back to memory. Because the
length and the reference counter of an eBPF array are stored in
the same cache line, this also means that changing the reference
counter on one physical CPU core causes reads of the eBPF array's
length to be slow on other physical CPU cores (intentional false
sharing).
While this doesn't 'control' the out-of-bounds speculation through
masking the index as in commit b2157399cc98, triggering a manipulation
of the map's reference counter is really trivial, so lets not allow
to easily affect max_entries from it.
Splitting to separate cachelines also generally makes sense from
a performance perspective anyway in that fast-path won't have a
cache miss if the map gets pinned, reused in other progs, etc out
of control path, thus also avoids unintentional false sharing.

Under speculation, CPUs may mis-predict branches in bounds checks. Thus,
memory accesses under a bounds check may be speculated even if the
bounds check fails, providing a primitive for building a side channel.
To avoid leaking kernel data round up array-based maps and mask the index
after bounds check, so speculated load with out of bounds index will load
either valid value from the array or zero from the padded area.
Unconditionally mask index for all array types even when max_entries
are not rounded to power of 2 for root user.
When map is created by unpriv user generate a sequence of bpf insns
that includes AND operation to make sure that JITed code includes
the same 'index & index_mask' operation.
If prog_array map is created by unpriv user replace
bpf_tail_call(ctx, map, index);
with
if (index >= max_entries) {
index &= map->index_mask;
bpf_tail_call(ctx, map, index);
}
(along with roundup to power 2) to prevent out-of-bounds speculation.
There is secondary redundant 'if (index >= max_entries)' in the interpreter
and in all JITs, but they can be optimized later if necessary.
Other array-like maps (cpumap, devmap, sockmap, perf_event_array, cgroup_array)
cannot be used by unpriv, so no changes there.
That fixes bpf side of "Variant 1: bounds check bypass (CVE-2017-5753)" on
all architectures with and without JIT.
v2->v3:
Daniel noticed that attack potentially can be crafted via syscall commands
without loading the program, so add masking to those paths as well.

syzbot reported a hang involving SCTP, on which it kept flooding dmesg
with the message:
[ 246.742374] sctp: sctp_transport_update_pmtu: Reported pmtu 508 too
low, using default minimum of 512
That happened because whenever SCTP hits an ICMP Frag Needed, it tries
to adjust to the new MTU and triggers an immediate retransmission. But
it didn't consider the fact that MTUs smaller than the SCTP minimum MTU
allowed (512) would not cause the PMTU to change, and issued the
retransmission anyway (thus leading to another ICMP Frag Needed, and so
on).
As IPv4 (ip_rt_min_pmtu=556) and IPv6 (IPV6_MIN_MTU=1280) minimum MTU
are higher than that, sctp_transport_update_pmtu() is changed to
re-fetch the PMTU that got set after our request, and with that, detect
if there was an actual change or not.
The fix, thus, skips the immediate retransmission if the received ICMP
resulted in no change, in the hope that SCTP will select another path.
Note: The value being used for the minimum MTU (512,
SCTP_DEFAULT_MINSEGMENT) is not right and instead it should be (576,
SCTP_MIN_PMTU), but such change belongs to another patch.
Changes from v1:
- do not disable PMTU discovery, in the light of commit
06ad391919b2 ("[SCTP] Don't disable PMTU discovery when mtu is small")
and as suggested by Xin Long.
- changed the way to break the rtx loop by detecting if the icmp
resulted in a change or not
Changes from v2:
none

Renesas SH7757 has 2 Fast and 2 Gigabit Ether controllers, while the
'sh_eth' driver can only reset and initialize TSU of the first controller
pair. Shimoda-san tried to solve that adding the 'needs_init' member to the
'struct sh_eth_plat_data', however the platform code still never sets this
flag. I think that we can infer this information from the 'devno' variable
(set to 'platform_device::id') and reset/init the Ether controller pair
only for an even 'devno'; therefore 'sh_eth_plat_data::needs_init' can be
removed...

libc-compat.h aims to prevent symbol collisions between uapi and libc
headers for each supported libc. This requires continuous coordination
between them.
The goal of this commit is to improve the situation for libcs (such as
musl) which are not yet supported and/or do not wish to be explicitly
supported, while not affecting supported libcs. More precisely, with
this commit, unsupported libcs can request the suppression of any
specific uapi definition by defining the correspondings _UAPI_DEF_*
macro as 0. This can fix symbol collisions for them, as long as the
libc headers are included before the uapi headers. Inclusion in the
other order is outside the scope of this commit.
All infrastructure in order to enable this fallback for unsupported
libcs is already in place, except that libc-compat.h unconditionally
defines all _UAPI_DEF_* macros to 1 for all unsupported libcs so that
any previous definitions are ignored. In order to fix this, this commit
merely makes these definitions conditional.
This commit together with the musl libc commit
http://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/commit/?id=04983f2272382af92eb8f8838964ff944fbb8258
fixes for example the following compiler errors when <linux/in6.h> is
included after musl's <netinet/in.h>:
./linux/in6.h:32:8: error: redefinition of 'struct in6_addr'
./linux/in6.h:49:8: error: redefinition of 'struct sockaddr_in6'
./linux/in6.h:59:8: error: redefinition of 'struct ipv6_mreq'

Commit:
82c3768b8d68 ("efi/capsule-loader: Use a cached copy of the capsule header")
... refactored the capsule loading code that maps the capsule header,
to avoid having to map it several times.
However, as it turns out, the vmap() call we ended up removing did not
just map the header, but the entire capsule image, and dropping this
virtual mapping breaks capsules that are processed by the firmware
immediately (i.e., without a reboot).
Unfortunately, that change was part of a larger refactor that allowed
a quirk to be implemented for Quark, which has a non-standard memory
layout for capsules, and we have slightly painted ourselves into a
corner by allowing quirk code to mangle the capsule header and memory
layout.
So we need to fix this without breaking Quark. Fortunately, Quark does
not appear to care about the virtual mapping, and so we can simply
do a partial revert of commit:
2a457fb31df6 ("efi/capsule-loader: Use page addresses rather than struct page pointers")
... and create a vmap() mapping of the entire capsule (including header)
based on the reinstated struct page array, unless running on Quark, in
which case we pass the capsule header copy as before.

Fix the default for fscache_maybe_release_page() for when the cookie isn't
valid or the page isn't cached. It mustn't return false as that indicates
the page cannot yet be freed.
The problem with the default is that if, say, there's no cache, but a
network filesystem's pages are using up almost all the available memory, a
system can OOM because the filesystem ->releasepage() op will not allow
them to be released as fscache_maybe_release_page() incorrectly prevents
it.
This can be tested by writing a sequence of 512MiB files to an AFS mount.
It does not affect NFS or CIFS because both of those wrap the call in a
check of PG_fscache and it shouldn't bother Ceph as that only has
PG_private set whilst writeback is in progress. This might be an issue for
9P, however.
Note that the pages aren't entirely stuck. Removing a file or unmounting
will clear things because that uses ->invalidatepage() instead.

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A pile of fixes for long standing issues with the timer wheel and the
NOHZ code:
- Prevent timer base confusion accross the nohz switch, which can
cause unlocked access and data corruption
- Reinitialize the stale base clock on cpu hotplug to prevent subtle
side effects including rollovers on 32bit
- Prevent an interrupt storm when the timer softirq is already
pending caused by tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
- Move the timer start tracepoint to a place where it actually makes
sense
- Add documentation to timerqueue functions as they caused confusion
several times now"
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
timerqueue: Document return values of timerqueue_add/del()
timers: Invoke timer_start_debug() where it makes sense
nohz: Prevent a timer interrupt storm in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
timers: Reinitialize per cpu bases on hotplug
timers: Use deferrable base independent of base::nohz_active

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update after the kaisered maintainer finally found time
to handle regression reports.
- The larger part addresses a regression caused by the x86 vector
management rework.
The reservation based model does not work reliably for MSI
interrupts, if they cannot be masked (yes, yet another hw
engineering trainwreck). The reason is that the reservation mode
assigns a dummy vector when the interrupt is allocated and switches
to a real vector when the interrupt is requested.
If the MSI entry cannot be masked then the initialization might
raise an interrupt before the interrupt is requested, which ends up
as spurious interrupt and causes device malfunction and worse. The
fix is to exclude MSI interrupts which do not support masking from
reservation mode and assign a real vector right away.
- Extend the extra lockdep class setup for nested interrupts with a
class for the recently added irq_desc::request_mutex so lockdep can
differeniate and does not emit false positive warnings.
- A ratelimit guard for the bad irq printout so in case a bad irq
comes back immediately the system does not drown in dmesg spam"
