RCU now takes certain actions 100 and 200 milliseconds into a grace period
by default, but rcutorture only runs RCU read-side critical sections
with durations up to 50 milliseconds. This commit therefore increases
test coverage by increasing the maximum critical-section duration to
300 milliseconds. Note that the existing code automatically dials down
the probability of long delays based on the maximum duration, which means
that this change should not significantly change the rate of execution
of RCU read-side critical sections.

If rcutorture is run on a quiet system with the rcutorture.stutter module
parameter set high, then there can legitimately be an extended period
during which no RCU forward progress takes place. This can result
in false-positive no-forward-progress splats. This commit therefore
makes rcu_torture_fwd_prog() create a self-propagating RCU callback
to ensure that grace periods are in progress for the duration of the
forward-progress test.
Note that the RCU flavor under test must define ->call(), ->sync(),
and ->cb_barrier() for this self-propagating callback to be created.
If one or more of those rcu_torture_ops fields are NULL, then the
rcu_torture_fwd_prog() function will silently proceed without creating
the self-propagating callback.

Some of the Linux kernel's RCU implementations provide several mechanisms
to promote forward progress that operate over different timeframes.
This commit therefore causes rcu_torture_fwd_prog() to vary the duration
of its forward-progress testing in order to test each such mechanism.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
In a too-short test, random delays can cause each attempt to do
forward-progress testing to fail to complete, thus resulting in
spurious splats. This commit therefore requires at least five tries
before complaining about rcutorture runs that failed to produce at
least one valid forward-progress testing attempt. Note that actual
forward-progress failures will splat regardless of the number of tries.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Currently, rcutorture relies solely on the progress of
rcu_torture_writer() to judge grace-period forward progress. In theory,
this is the gold standard of forward progress, but in practice rcutorture
separately detects and reports rcu_torture_writer() stalls. This commit
therefore adds the grace-period sequence number (when provided) to the
judgment of grace-period forward progress, which makes it easier to
distinguish between failure of actual grace periods to progress on the
one hand and downstream forward-progress failures on the other.
For example, given this change, if rcu_torture_writer() stalls,
but rcu_torture_fwd_prog() does not complain, then the grace-period
computation is working, which is a hint that the failure lies in callback
processing, wakeup of the rcu_torture_writer() kthread, or similar.

This commit adds a kthread that loops going into and out of RCU
read-side critical sections, but also including a cond_resched(),
optionally guarded by a check of need_resched(), in that same loop.
This commit relies solely on rcu_torture_writer() progress to judge
the forward progress of grace periods.
Note that Tasks RCU and SRCU are exempted from forward-progress testing
due their (intentionally) less-robust forward-progress guarantees.

Deferred quiescent states can interact with the scheduler, but
rcu_torture_reader() does not force such interaction all that frequently.
This commit therefore blocks for one jiffy after ten jiffies of read-side
runtime. This has the beneficial effect of being most likely to block
just after long-running readers, and it is exactly these readers that
are most likely to have been preempted (in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels).
This in turn helps increase the probability that a deferred quiescent
state will be seen by RCU's context-switch hooks.

Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang:
"As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap
backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several
possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax
mappings.
In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses:
1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races
that would typically be handled by the page lock.
2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the
"compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine
the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn.
3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively
accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and
otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.
A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable
for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the
system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.
Specifically the current behavior is:
mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200
{1}[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
{1}[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.
Ref-> commit 1c8f422059 ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")
The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and
handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type. As part of that clean up return
type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to
vm_fault_t type.
The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be
change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch.
vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world
writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the
directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose
is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned
on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like
the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's
"HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer.
This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented
by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation:
CVE-2000-1134
CVE-2007-3852
CVE-2008-0525
CVE-2009-0416
CVE-2011-4834
CVE-2015-1838
CVE-2015-7442
CVE-2016-7489
This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all
vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any
mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before
hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite
vehicle to exploit them.

from being traced by kprobes. During my testing, I found that there's places

code before 4.19 is released. The history behind this change is that we
found that adding kprobes to various notrace functions caused the kernel to
crashed. We took the safe route and decided not to allow kprobes to trace
any notrace function. But because notrace is added to functions that just
cause weird side effects to the function tracer, but are still safe,
preventing kprobes for all notrace functios may be too much of a big hammer.
One such place is __schedule() is marked notrace, to keep function tracer
from doing strange recursive loops when it gets traced with NEED_RESCHED

Before this change, if a multithreaded process forks while one of its
threads is changing a signal handler using sigaction(), the memcpy() in
copy_sighand() can race with the struct assignment in do_sigaction(). It
isn't clear whether this can cause corruption of the userspace signal
handler pointer, but it definitely can cause inconsistency between
different fields of struct sigaction.
Take the appropriate spinlock to avoid this.
I have tested that this patch prevents inconsistency between sa_sigaction
and sa_flags, which is possible before this patch.

Patch series "signal: refactor some functions", v3.
This series refactors a bunch of functions in signal.c to simplify parts
of the code.
The greatest single change is declaring the static do_sigpending() helper
as void which makes it possible to remove a bunch of unnecessary checks in
the syscalls later on.
This patch (of 17):
force_sigsegv() returned 0 unconditionally so it doesn't make sense to have
it return at all. In addition, there are no callers that check
force_sigsegv()'s return value.

An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries,
each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to
the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively.
When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an
additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte
entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot
time.
Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely
local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL()
itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references
instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all
64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for
architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64)
or using custom host tools (x86).
Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each
section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the
input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch
does not interfere with that.
Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in
the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for
all architectures. So make it dependent on whether
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result
hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout. This is fine for
most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups
(syzbot). In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup <
RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall
is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent
machine loss. The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires
setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g. if task
hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins). The
additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because
usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug
localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests.
Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout. This allows to
set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs.
The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl,
similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl. The default value
of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to
timeout.

The get_seconds() call returns a 32-bit timestamp on some architectures,
and will overflow in the future. The newer ktime_get_real_seconds()
always returns a 64-bit timestamp that does not suffer from this problem.

The irqsave variant of refcount_dec_and_lock handles irqsave/restore when
taking/releasing the spin lock. With this variant the call of
local_irq_save/restore is no longer required.

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be used instead of atomic_t
wh en the variable is used as a reference counter. This avoids accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free situations.
