(Peter Zijlstra) - Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross, Christian Borntraeger) - Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger) - Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long) - Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive() interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to not pollute the build log.)

Couple conflicts resolved here: 1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes to support variable sized rings. 2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip. 3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up and reorganized in 'net-next'. 4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in 'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against tc_skip_sw(). 5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some unrelated changes in 'net-next'. 6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head() bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of the same code in 'net-next'. Since the 'net-next' code no longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-12-01lib/debugobjects: export for use in modulesChris Wilson1-0/+8
Drivers, or other modules, that use a mixture of objects (especially objects embedded within other objects) would like to take advantage of the debugobjects facilities to help catch misuse. Currently, the debugobjects interface is only available to builtin drivers and requires a set of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for use by modules. I am using the debugobjects in i915.ko to try and catch some invalid operations on embedded objects. The problem currently only presents itself across module unload so forcing i915 to be builtin is not an option.

2016-11-25mpi: Fix NULL ptr dereference in mpi_powm() [ver #3]Andrey Ryabinin1-1/+6
This fixes CVE-2016-8650. If mpi_powm() is given a zero exponent, it wants to immediately return either 1 or 0, depending on the modulus. However, if the result was initalised with zero limb space, no limbs space is allocated and a NULL-pointer exception ensues. Fix this by allocating a minimal amount of limb space for the result when the 0-exponent case when the result is 1 and not touching the limb space when the result is 0. This affects the use of RSA keys and X.509 certificates that carry them.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps for the Thunder driver. That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an error. Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically. But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has to stay. However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change. Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-11-18config: Adding the new config parameter CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL for sparcBabu Moger1-0/+3
This new config parameter limits the space used for "Lock debugging: prove locking correctness" by about 4MB. The current sparc systems have the limitation of 32MB size for kernel size including .text, .data and .bss sections. With PROVE_LOCKING feature, the kernel size could grow beyond this limit and causing system boot-up issues. With this option, kernel limits the size of the entries of lock_chains, stack_trace etc., so that kernel fits in required size limit. This is not visible to user and only used for sparc.

The code was originally created for KASAN and moved under lib in commit cd11016e5f521 ("mm, kasan: stackdepot implementation. Enable stackdepot for SLAB") so that it could be shared with mm/.

2016-10-31bug: Avoid Kconfig warning for BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTIONArnd Bergmann1-1/+1
The CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST option is normally meant for kernel developers rather than production machines and is guarded by CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. In contrast, the newly added CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION is meant for security hardening and may be used on systems that intentionally do not enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. In this configuration, we get a warning from Kconfig about the mismatched dependencies: warning: (BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION) selects DEBUG_LIST which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL) This annotates the DEBUG_LIST option to be selectable by BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION when DEBUG_KERNEL is disabled.

2016-10-31bug: Provide toggle for BUG on data corruptionKees Cook2-35/+32
The kernel checks for cases of data structure corruption under some CONFIGs (e.g. CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST). When corruption is detected, some systems may want to BUG() immediately instead of letting the system run with known corruption. Usually these kinds of manipulation primitives can be used by security flaws to gain arbitrary memory write control. This provides a new config CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION and a corresponding macro CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION for handling these situations. Notably, even if not BUGing, the kernel should not continue processing the corrupted structure. This is inspired by similar hardening by Syed Rameez Mustafa in MSM kernels, and in PaX and Grsecurity, which is likely in response to earlier removal of the BUG calls in commit 924d9addb9b1 ("list debugging: use WARN() instead of BUG()").

Right now, __list_add() code is repeated either in list.h or in list_debug.c, but the only differences between the two versions are the debug checks. This commit therefore extracts these debug checks into a separate __list_add_valid() function and consolidates __list_add(). Additionally this new __list_add_valid() function will stop list manipulations if a corruption is detected, instead of allowing for further corruption that may lead to even worse conditions.

2016-10-28lib/genalloc.c: start search from start of chunkDaniel Mentz1-1/+2
gen_pool_alloc_algo() iterates over the chunks of a pool trying to find a contiguous block of memory that satisfies the allocation request. The shortcut if (size > atomic_read(&chunk->avail)) continue; makes the loop skip over chunks that do not have enough bytes left to fulfill the request. There are two situations, though, where an allocation might still fail: (1) The available memory is not contiguous, i.e. the request cannot be fulfilled due to external fragmentation. (2) A race condition. Another thread runs the same code concurrently and is quicker to grab the available memory. In those situations, the loop calls pool->algo() to search the entire chunk, and pool->algo() returns some value that is >= end_bit to indicate that the search failed. This return value is then assigned to start_bit. The variables start_bit and end_bit describe the range that should be searched, and this range should be reset for every chunk that is searched. Today, the code fails to reset start_bit to 0. As a result, prefixes of subsequent chunks are ignored. Memory allocations might fail even though there is plenty of room left in these prefixes of those other chunks.

2016-10-28lib/stackdepot.c: bump stackdepot capacity from 16MB to 128MBDmitry Vyukov1-1/+1
KASAN uses stackdepot to memorize stacks for all kmalloc/kfree calls. Current stackdepot capacity is 16MB (1024 top level entries x 4 pages on second level). Size of each stack is (num_frames + 3) * sizeof(long). Which gives us ~84K stacks. This capacity was chosen empirically and it is enough to run kernel normally. However, when lots of configs are enabled and a fuzzer tries to maximize code coverage, it easily hits the limit within tens of minutes. I've tested for long a time with number of top level entries bumped 4x (4096). And I think I've seen overflow only once. But I don't have all configs enabled and code coverage has not reached maximum yet. So bump it 8x to 8192. Since we have two-level table, memory cost of this is very moderate -- currently the top-level table is 8KB, with this patch it is 64KB, which is negligible under KASAN. Here is some approx math. 128MB allows us to memorize ~670K stacks (assuming stack is ~200b). I've grepped kernel for kmalloc|kfree|kmem_cache_alloc|kmem_cache_free| kzalloc|kstrdup|kstrndup|kmemdup and it gives ~60K matches. Most of alloc/free call sites are reachable with only one stack. But some utility functions can have large fanout. Assuming average fanout is 5x, total number of alloc/free stacks is ~300K.

After commit 636c2628086e ("net: skbuff: Remove errornous length validation in skb_vlan_pop()") mentioned test case stopped working, throwing a -12 (ENOMEM) return code. The issue however is not due to 636c2628086e, but rather due to a buggy test case that got uncovered from the change in behaviour in 636c2628086e. The data_size of that test case for the skb was set to 1. In the bpf_fill_ld_abs_vlan_push_pop() handler bpf insns are generated that loop with: reading skb data, pushing 68 tags, reading skb data, popping 68 tags, reading skb data, etc, in order to force a skb expansion and thus trigger that JITs recache skb->data. Problem is that initial data_size is too small. While before 636c2628086e, the test silently bailed out due to the skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN check with returning 0, and now throwing an error from failing skb_ensure_writable(). Set at least minimum of ETH_HLEN as an initial length so that on first push of data, equivalent pop will succeed.

2016-10-12lib/bitmap.c: enhance bitmap syntaxNoam Camus1-4/+46
Today there are platforms with many CPUs (up to 4K). Trying to boot only part of the CPUs may result in too long string. For example lets take NPS platform that is part of arch/arc. This platform have SMP system with 256 cores each with 16 HW threads (SMT machine) where HW thread appears as CPU to the kernel. In this example there is total of 4K CPUs. When one tries to boot only part of the HW threads from each core the string representing the map may be long... For example if for sake of performance we decided to boot only first half of HW threads of each core the map will look like: 0-7,16-23,32-39,...,4080-4087 This patch introduce new syntax to accommodate with such use case. I added an optional postfix to a range of CPUs which will choose according to given modulo the desired range of reminders i.e.: <cpus range>:sed_size/group_size For example, above map can be described in new syntax like this: 0-4095:8/16 Note that this patch is backward compatible with current syntax.

2016-10-12lib: harden strncpy_from_userMark Rutland1-0/+2
The strncpy_from_user() accessor is effectively a copy_from_user() specialised to copy strings, terminating early at a NUL byte if possible. In other respects it is identical, and can be used to copy an arbitrarily large buffer from userspace into the kernel. Conceptually, it exposes a similar attack surface. As with copy_from_user(), we check the destination range when the kernel is built with KASAN, but unlike copy_from_user() we do not check the destination buffer when using HARDENED_USERCOPY. As strncpy_from_user() calls get_user() in a loop, we must call check_object_size() explicitly. This patch adds this instrumentation to strncpy_from_user(), per the same rationale as with the regular copy_from_user(). In the absence of hardened usercopy this will have no impact as the instrumentation expands to an empty static inline function.

If the attribute is on a variable then the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields. These specific functions have been selected because they are init functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of latent entropy.
