ARM: ptrace: Restore syscall skipping for tracers

2023-08-16T20:58:49+00:00

Since commit 4e57a4ddf6b0 ("ARM: 9107/1: syscall: always store thread_info->abi_syscall"), the seccomp selftests "syscall_errno" and "syscall_faked" have been broken. Both seccomp and PTRACE depend on using the special value of "-1" for skipping syscalls. This value wasn't working because it was getting masked by __NR_SYSCALL_MASK in both PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL and get_syscall_nr(). Explicitly test for -1 in PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL and get_syscall_nr(), leaving it exposed when present, allowing tracers to skip syscalls again.

ARM: 9108/1: oabi-compat: rework epoll_wait/epoll_pwait emulation

2021-08-20T10:39:26+00:00

The epoll_wait() system call wrapper is one of the remaining users of the set_fs() infrasturcture for Arm. Changing it to not require set_fs() is rather complex unfortunately. The approach I'm taking here is to allow architectures to override the code that copies the output to user space, and let the oabi-compat implementation check whether it is getting called from an EABI or OABI system call based on the thread_info->syscall value. The in_oabi_syscall() check here mirrors the in_compat_syscall() and in_x32_syscall() helpers for 32-bit compat implementations on other architectures. Overall, the amount of code goes down, at least with the newly added sys_oabi_epoll_pwait() helper getting removed again. The downside is added complexity in the source code for the native implementation. There should be no difference in runtime performance except for Arm kernels with CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT enabled that now have to go through an external function call to check which of the two variants to use.

ARM: 9107/1: syscall: always store thread_info->abi_syscall

2021-08-20T10:39:26+00:00

The system call number is used in a a couple of places, in particular ptrace, seccomp and /proc//syscall. The last one apparently never worked reliably on ARM for tasks that are not currently getting traced. Storing the syscall number in the normal entry path makes it work, as well as allowing us to see if the current system call is for OABI compat mode, which is the next thing I want to hook into. Since the thread_info->syscall field is not just the number any more, it is now renamed to abi_syscall. In kernels that enable both OABI and EABI, the upper bits of this field encode 0x900000 (__NR_OABI_SYSCALL_BASE) for OABI tasks, while normal EABI tasks do not set the upper bits. This makes it possible to implement the in_oabi_syscall() helper later. All other users of thread_info->syscall go through the syscall_get_nr() helper, which in turn filters out the ABI bits. Note that the ABI information is lost with PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL, so one cannot set the internal number to a particular version, but this was already the case. We could change it to let gdb encode the ABI type along with the syscall in a CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT-enabled kernel, but that itself would be a (backwards-compatible) ABI change, so I don't do it here.

syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_set_arguments() args

2019-04-05T13:27:23+00:00

After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with syscall_get_arguments().

syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_get_arguments() args

2019-04-05T13:26:43+00:00

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only 0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6 arguments of a system call. This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace, ftrace and perf.

syscall_get_arch: add "struct task_struct *" argument

2019-03-21T01:12:36+00:00

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(), syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument. The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6) should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments are.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
