2020-04-17pstore: pstore_ftrace_seq_next should increase position indexVasily Averin1-1/+4
commit 6c871b7314dde9ab64f20de8f5aa3d01be4518e8 upstream. In Aug 2018 NeilBrown noticed commit 1f4aace60b0e ("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file iteration code and interface") "Some ->next functions do not increment *pos when they return NULL... Note that such ->next functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1 Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps" /proc/swaps output was fixed recently, however there are lot of other affected files, and one of them is related to pstore subsystem. If .next function does not change position index, following .show function will repeat output related to current position index. There are at least 2 related problems: - read after lseek beyond end of file, described above by NeilBrown "dd if=<AFFECTED_FILE> bs=1000 skip=1" will generate whole last list - read after lseek on in middle of last line will output expected rest of last line but then repeat whole last line once again. If .show() function generates multy-line output (like pstore_ftrace_seq_show() does ?) following bash script cycles endlessly $ q=;while read -r r;do echo "$((++q)) $r";done < AFFECTED_FILE Unfortunately I'm not familiar enough to pstore subsystem and was unable to find affected pstore-related file on my test node. If .next function does not change position index, following .show function will repeat output related to current position index.

2019-09-16pstore: Fix double-free in pstore_mkfile() failure pathNorbert Manthey1-6/+6
[ Upstream commit 4c6d80e1144bdf48cae6b602ae30d41f3e5c76a9 ] The pstore_mkfile() function is passed a pointer to a struct pstore_record. On success it consumes this 'record' pointer and references it from the created inode. On failure, however, it may or may not free the record. There are even two different code paths which return -ENOMEM -- one of which does and the other doesn't free the record. Make the behaviour deterministic by never consuming and freeing the record when returning failure, allowing the caller to do the cleanup consistently.

2017-08-18Revert "pstore: Honor dmesg_restrict sysctl on dmesg dumps"Kees Cook1-22/+0
This reverts commit 68c4a4f8abc60c9440ede9cd123d48b78325f7a3, with various conflict clean-ups. The capability check required too much privilege compared to simple DAC controls. A system builder was forced to have crash handler processes run with CAP_SYSLOG which would give it the ability to read (and wipe) the _current_ dmesg, which is much more access than being given access only to the historical log stored in pstorefs. With the prior commit to make the root directory 0750, the files are protected by default but a system builder can now opt to give access to a specific group (via chgrp on the pstorefs root directory) without being forced to also give away CAP_SYSLOG.

2017-08-18pstore: Make default pstorefs root dir perms 0750Kees Cook1-1/+1
Currently only DMESG and CONSOLE record types are protected, and it isn't obvious that they are using a capability check. Instead switch to explicit root directory mode of 0750 to keep files private by default. This will allow the removal of the capability check, which was non-obvious and forces a process to have possibly too much privilege when simple post-boot chgrp for readers would be possible without it.

2016-11-16pstore: Add ftrace timestamp counterJoel Fernandes1-3/+5
In preparation for merging the per CPU buffers into one buffer when we retrieve the pstore ftrace data, we store the timestamp as a counter in the ftrace pstore record. We store the CPU number as well if !PSTORE_CPU_IN_IP, in this case we shift the counter and may lose ordering there but we preserve the same record size. The timestamp counter is also racy, and not doing any locking or synchronization here results in the benefit of lower overhead. Since we don't care much here for exact ordering of function traces across CPUs, we don't synchronize and may lose some counter updates but I'm ok with that. Using trace_clock() results in much lower performance so avoid using it since we don't want accuracy in timestamp and need a rough ordering to perform merge.

2016-09-28fs: Replace CURRENT_TIME with current_time() for inode timestampsDeepa Dinamani1-1/+1
CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps. Use current_time() instead. CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe. This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also, current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be y2038 safe. Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they share the same time granularity.

2016-06-02pstore: drop file opened reference countGeliang Tang1-1/+0
In ee1d267423a1 ("pstore: add pstore unregister") I added: .owner = THIS_MODULE, in both pstore_fs_type and pstore_file_operations to increase a reference count when pstore filesystem is mounted and pstore file is opened. But, it's repetitive. There is no need to increase the opened reference count. We only need to increase the mounted reference count. When a file is opened, the filesystem can't be unmounted. Hence the pstore module can't be unloaded either. So I drop the opened reference count in this patch.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov1-2/+2
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2014-03-13fs: push sync_filesystem() down to the file system's remount_fs()Theodore Ts'o1-0/+1
Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied, unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful, except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting remounted read-only. However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something like romfs).

In addition to the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are: - Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit server processors. This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size. - Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy - Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah - Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling and recovery) infrastructure. It is no longer specific to pseries but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no hypervisor) by Gavin Shan. - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded processors). - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace interrupts" for performance monitor events. - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs. Signals bug fixes and HW breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

2013-02-13pstore: Create a convenient mount point for pstoreJosh Boyer1-1/+17
Using /dev/pstore as a mount point for the pstore filesystem is slightly awkward. We don't normally mount filesystems in /dev/ and the /dev/pstore file isn't created automatically by anything. While this method will still work, we can create a persistent mount point in sysfs. This will put pstore on par with things like cgroups and efivarfs.

2012-11-27efi_pstore: Add a sequence counter to a variable nameSeiji Aguchi1-3/+5
[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which identifies each entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But if multiple events happens in a short time, a second/third event may fail to log because efi_pstore can't distinguish each event with current variable name. [Solution] A reasonable way to identify all events precisely is introducing a sequence counter to the variable name. The sequence counter has already supported in a pstore layer with "oopscount". So, this patch adds it to a variable name. Also, it is passed to read/erase callbacks of platform drivers in accordance with the modification of the variable name. <before applying this patch> a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-12345678 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678 If multiple events happen in a short time, efi_pstore can't distinguish them because variable names are same among them. <after applying this patch> it can be distinguishable by adding a sequence counter as follows. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-1-12345678 a variable name of Second event: dump-type0-1-2-12345678 type:0 id:1 sequence counter: 1(first event), 2(second event) ctime:12345678 In case of a write callback executed in pstore_console_write(), "0" is added to an argument of the write callback because it just logs all kernel messages and doesn't need to care about multiple events.

2012-11-27efi_pstore: Add ctime to argument of erase callbackSeiji Aguchi1-1/+2
[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime. If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough. However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time. <Example> As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678, 23456789 [Solution] This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback. It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored. To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore at reading time.

2012-07-17pstore: Add persistent function tracingAnton Vorontsov1-4/+107
With this support kernel can save function call chain log into a persistent ram buffer that can be decoded and dumped after reboot through pstore filesystem. It can be used to determine what function was last called before a reset or panic. We store the log in a binary format and then decode it at read time. p.s. Mostly the code comes from trace_persistent.c driver found in the Android git tree, written by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> (according to sign-off history). I reworked the driver a little bit, and ported it to pstore. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <anton.vorontsov@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-06-14pstore: Add console log messages supportAnton Vorontsov1-0/+3
Pstore doesn't support logging kernel messages in run-time, it only dumps dmesg when kernel oopses/panics. This makes pstore useless for debugging hangs caused by HW issues or improper use of HW (e.g. weird device inserted -> driver tried to write a reserved bits -> SoC hanged. In that case we don't get any messages in the pstore. Therefore, let's add a runtime logging support: PSTORE_TYPE_CONSOLE.

2012-04-06simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()Stephen Boyd1-7/+1
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree.
