prctl: Disable prctl(PR_SET_MDWE) on parisc
systemd-254 tries to use prctl(PR_SET_MDWE) for it's MemoryDenyWriteExecute functionality, but fails on parisc which still needs executable stacks in certain combinations of gcc/glibc/kernel. Disable prctl(PR_SET_MDWE) by returning -EINVAL for now on parisc, until userspace has catched up.

As usual, lots of singleton and doubleton patches all over the tree and
there's little I can say which isn't in the individual changelogs.
The lengthier patch series are
- "kdump: use generic functions to simplify crashkernel reservation in
arch", from Baoquan He. This is mainly cleanups and consolidation of
the "crashkernel=" kernel parameter handling.
- After much discussion, David Laight's "minmax: Relax type checks in
min() and max()" is here. Hopefully reduces some typecasting and the
use of min_t() and max_t().
- A group of patches from Oleg Nesterov which clean up and slightly fix
our handling of reads from /proc/PID/task/... and which remove
task_struct.therad_group.

mm: add a NO_INHERIT flag to the PR_SET_MDWE prctl
This extends the current PR_SET_MDWE prctl arg with a bit to indicate that the process doesn't want MDWE protection to propagate to children. To implement this no-inherit mode, the tag in current->mm->flags must be absent from MMF_INIT_MASK. This means that the encoding for "MDWE but without inherit" is different in the prctl than in the mm flags. This leads to a bit of bit-mangling in the prctl implementation.

prctl: move PR_GET_AUXV out of PR_MCE_KILL
Somehow PR_GET_AUXV got added into PR_MCE_KILL's switch when the patch was
applied [1].
Thus move it out of the switch, to the place the patch added it.
In the recently released v6.4 kernel some user could, in principle, be
already using this feature by mapping the right page and passing the
PR_GET_AUXV constant as a pointer:
prctl(PR_MCE_KILL, PR_GET_AUXV, ...)
So this does change the behavior for users. We could keep the bug since
the other subcases in PR_MCE_KILL (PR_MCE_KILL_CLEAR and PR_MCE_KILL_SET)
do not overlap.
However, v6.4 may be recent enough (2 weeks old) that moving the lines
(rather than just adding a new case) does not break anybody? Moreover,
the documentation in man-pages was just committed today [2].

mm/ksm: unmerge and clear VM_MERGEABLE when setting PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0
Patch series "mm/ksm: improve PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0 handling and cleanup disabling KSM", v2. (1) Make PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0 unmerge pages like setting MADV_UNMERGEABLE does, (2) add a selftest for it and (3) factor out disabling of KSM from s390/gmap code. This patch (of 3): Let's unmerge any KSM pages when setting PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0, and clear the VM_MERGEABLE flag from all VMAs -- just like KSM would. Of course, only do that if we previously set PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=1.

mm: add new api to enable ksm per process
Patch series "mm: process/cgroup ksm support", v9.
So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To
be able to use KSM for more workloads, KSM needs to have the ability to be
enabled / disabled at the process / cgroup level.
Use case 1:
The madvise call is not available in the programming language. An
example for this are programs with forked workloads using a garbage
collected language without pointers. In such a language madvise cannot
be made available.
In addition the addresses of objects get moved around as they are
garbage collected. KSM sharing needs to be enabled "from the outside"
for these type of workloads.
Use case 2:
The same interpreter can also be used for workloads where KSM brings
no benefit or even has overhead. We'd like to be able to enable KSM on
a workload by workload basis.
Use case 3:
With the madvise call sharing opportunities are only enabled for the
current process: it is a workload-local decision. A considerable number
of sharing opportunities may exist across multiple workloads or jobs (if
they are part of the same security domain). Only a higler level entity
like a job scheduler or container can know for certain if its running
one or more instances of a job. That job scheduler however doesn't have
the necessary internal workload knowledge to make targeted madvise
calls.
Security concerns:
In previous discussions security concerns have been brought up. The
problem is that an individual workload does not have the knowledge about
what else is running on a machine. Therefore it has to be very
conservative in what memory areas can be shared or not. However, if the
system is dedicated to running multiple jobs within the same security
domain, its the job scheduler that has the knowledge that sharing can be
safely enabled and is even desirable.
Performance:
Experiments with using UKSM have shown a capacity increase of around 20%.
Here are the metrics from an instagram workload (taken from a machine
with 64GB main memory):
full_scans: 445
general_profit: 20158298048
max_page_sharing: 256
merge_across_nodes: 1
pages_shared: 129547
pages_sharing: 5119146
pages_to_scan: 4000
pages_unshared: 1760924
pages_volatile: 10761341
run: 1
sleep_millisecs: 20
stable_node_chains: 167
stable_node_chains_prune_millisecs: 2000
stable_node_dups: 2751
use_zero_pages: 0
zero_pages_sharing: 0
After the service is running for 30 minutes to an hour, 4 to 5 million
shared pages are common for this workload when using KSM.
Detailed changes:
1. New options for prctl system command
This patch series adds two new options to the prctl system call.
The first one allows to enable KSM at the process level and the second
one to query the setting.
The setting will be inherited by child processes.
With the above setting, KSM can be enabled for the seed process of a cgroup
and all processes in the cgroup will inherit the setting.
2. Changes to KSM processing
When KSM is enabled at the process level, the KSM code will iterate
over all the VMA's and enable KSM for the eligible VMA's.
When forking a process that has KSM enabled, the setting will be
inherited by the new child process.
3. Add general_profit metric
The general_profit metric of KSM is specified in the documentation,
but not calculated. This adds the general profit metric to
/sys/kernel/debug/mm/ksm.
4. Add more metrics to ksm_stat
This adds the process profit metric to /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat.
5. Add more tests to ksm_tests and ksm_functional_tests
This adds an option to specify the merge type to the ksm_tests.
This allows to test madvise and prctl KSM.
It also adds a two new tests to ksm_functional_tests: one to test
the new prctl options and the other one is a fork test to verify that
the KSM process setting is inherited by client processes.
This patch (of 3):
So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To
be able to use KSM for more workloads, KSM needs to have the ability to be
enabled / disabled at the process / cgroup level.
1. New options for prctl system command

over all the VMA's and enable KSM for the eligible VMA's.
When forking a process that has KSM enabled, the setting will be
inherited by the new child process.
1) Introduce new MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag
This introduces the new flag MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag. When this flag
is set, kernel samepage merging (ksm) gets enabled for all vma's of a
process.
2) Setting VM_MERGEABLE on VMA creation
When a VMA is created, if the MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag is set, the
VM_MERGEABLE flag will be set for this VMA.
3) support disabling of ksm for a process
This adds the ability to disable ksm for a process if ksm has been
enabled for the process with prctl.
4) add new prctl option to get and set ksm for a process
This adds two new options to the prctl system call
- enable ksm for all vmas of a process (if the vmas support it).
- query if ksm has been enabled for a process.
3. Disabling MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY for storage keys in s390
In the s390 architecture when storage keys are used, the
MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY will be disabled.

prctl: add PR_GET_AUXV to copy auxv to userspace
If a library wants to get information from auxv (for instance, AT_HWCAP/AT_HWCAP2), it has a few options, none of them perfectly reliable or ideal: - Be main or the pre-main startup code, and grub through the stack above main. Doesn't work for a library. - Call libc getauxval. Not ideal for libraries that are trying to be libc-independent and/or don't otherwise require anything from other libraries. - Open and read /proc/self/auxv. Doesn't work for libraries that may run in arbitrarily constrained environments that may not have /proc mounted (e.g. libraries that might be used by an init program or a container setup tool). - Assume you're on the main thread and still on the original stack, and try to walk the stack upwards, hoping to find auxv. Extremely bad idea. - Ask the caller to pass auxv in for you. Not ideal for a user-friendly library, and then your caller may have the same problem. Add a prctl that copies current->mm->saved_auxv to a userspace buffer.

kernel/sys.c: fix and improve control flow in __sys_setres[ug]id()
Linux Security Modules (LSMs) that implement the "capable" hook will
usually emit an access denial message to the audit log whenever they
"block" the current task from using the given capability based on their
security policy.
The occurrence of a denial is used as an indication that the given task
has attempted an operation that requires the given access permission, so
the callers of functions that perform LSM permission checks must take care
to avoid calling them too early (before it is decided if the permission is
actually needed to perform the requested operation).
The __sys_setres[ug]id() functions violate this convention by first
calling ns_capable_setid() and only then checking if the operation
requires the capability or not. It means that any caller that has the
capability granted by DAC (task's capability set) but not by MAC (LSMs)
will generate a "denied" audit record, even if is doing an operation for
which the capability is not required.
Fix this by reordering the checks such that ns_capable_setid() is checked
last and -EPERM is returned immediately if it returns false.
While there, also do two small optimizations:
* move the capability check before prepare_creds() and
* bail out early in case of a no-op.

mm: implement memory-deny-write-execute as a prctl
Patch series "mm: In-kernel support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)", v2. The background to this is that systemd has a configuration option called MemoryDenyWriteExecute [2], implemented as a SECCOMP BPF filter. Its aim is to prevent a user task from inadvertently creating an executable mapping that is (or was) writeable. Since such BPF filter is stateless, it cannot detect mappings that were previously writeable but subsequently changed to read-only. Therefore the filter simply rejects any mprotect(PROT_EXEC). The side-effect is that on arm64 with BTI support (Branch Target Identification), the dynamic loader cannot change an ELF section from PROT_EXEC to PROT_EXEC|PROT_BTI using mprotect(). For libraries, it can resort to unmapping and re-mapping but for the main executable it does not have a file descriptor. The original bug report in the Red Hat bugzilla - [3] - and subsequent glibc workaround for libraries - [4]. This series adds in-kernel support for this feature as a prctl PR_SET_MDWE, that is inherited on fork(). The prctl denies PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC mappings. Like the systemd BPF filter it also denies adding PROT_EXEC to mappings. However unlike the BPF filter it only denies it if the mapping didn't previous have PROT_EXEC. This allows to PROT_EXEC -> PROT_EXEC | PROT_BTI with mprotect(), which is a problem with the BPF filter. This patch (of 2): The aim of such policy is to prevent a user task from creating an executable mapping that is also writeable. An example of mmap() returning -EACCESS if the policy is enabled: mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC, flags, 0, 0); Similarly, mprotect() would return -EACCESS below: addr = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC, flags, 0, 0); mprotect(addr, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC); The BPF filter that systemd MDWE uses is stateless, and disallows mprotect() with PROT_EXEC completely. This new prctl allows PROT_EXEC to be enabled if it was already PROT_EXEC, which allows the following case: addr = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC, flags, 0, 0); mprotect(addr, size, PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC | PROT_BTI); where PROT_BTI enables branch tracking identification on arm64.

It's been gone for over 2 years now and this is the first we've heard of it, but userspace breakage is userspace breakage, so O_NONBLOCK is now back. - Use randomness from hardware RNGs much more often during early boot, at the same interval that crng reseeds are done, from Dominik. - A semantic change in hardware RNG throttling, so that the hwrng framework can properly feed random.c with randomness from hardware RNGs that aren't specifically marked as creditable. A related patch coming to you via Herbert's hwrng tree depends on this one, not to compile, but just to function properly, so you may want to merge this PULL before that one. - A fix to clamp credited bits from the interrupts pool to the size of the pool sample. This is mainly just a theoretical fix, as it'd be pretty hard to exceed it in practice. - Oracle reported that InfiniBand TCP latency regressed by around 10-15% after a change a few cycles ago made at the request of the RT folks, in which we hoisted a somewhat rare operation (1 in 1024 times) out of the hard IRQ handler and into a workqueue, a pretty common and boring pattern. It turns out, though, that scheduling a worker from there has overhead of its own, whereas scheduling a timer on that same CPU for the next jiffy amortizes better and doesn't incur the same overhead. I also eliminated a cache miss by moving the work_struct (and subsequently, the timer_list) to below a critical cache line, so that the more critical members that are accessed on every hard IRQ aren't split between two cache lines. - The boot-time initialization of the RNG has been split into two approximate phases: what we can accomplish before timekeeping is possible and what we can accomplish after. This winds up being useful so that we can use RDRAND to seed the RNG before CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM=y systems initialize slabs, in addition to other early uses of randomness. The effect is that systems with RDRAND (or a bootloader seed) will never see any warnings at all when setting CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM=y. And kfence benefits from getting a better seed of its own. - Small systems without much entropy sometimes wind up putting some truncated serial number read from flash into hostname, so contribute utsname changes to the RNG, without crediting. - Add smaller batches to serve requests for smaller integers, and make use of them when people ask for random numbers bounded by a given compile-time constant. This has positive effects all over the tree, most notably in networking and kfence. - The original jitter algorithm intended (I believe) to schedule the timer for the next jiffy, not the next-next jiffy, yet it used mod_timer(jiffies + 1), which will fire on the next-next jiffy, instead of what I believe was intended, mod_timer(jiffies), which will fire on the next jiffy. So fix that. - Fix a comment typo, from William. * tag 'random-6.1-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: random: clear new batches when bringing new CPUs online random: fix typos in get_random_bytes() comment random: schedule jitter credit for next jiffy, not in two jiffies prandom: make use of smaller types in prandom_u32_max random: add 8-bit and 16-bit batches utsname: contribute changes to RNG random: use init_utsname() instead of utsname() kfence: use better stack hash seed random: split initialization into early step and later step random: use expired timer rather than wq for mixing fast pool random: avoid reading two cache lines on irq randomness random: clamp credited irq bits to maximum mixed random: throttle hwrng writes if no entropy is credited random: use hwgenerator randomness more frequently at early boot random: restore O_NONBLOCK support |

that part of the problem was that while the ucount rlimits were very
similar to the oridinary ucounts (in being nested counts with limits)
the semantics were slightly different and the code would be less error
prone if there was less sharing. This is the long awaited cleanup

utsname: contribute changes to RNG
On some small machines with little entropy, a quasi-unique hostname is sometimes a relevant factor. I've seen, for example, 8 character alpha-numeric serial numbers. In addition, the time at which the hostname is set is usually a decent measurement of how long early boot took. So, call add_device_randomness() on new hostnames, which feeds its arguments to the RNG in addition to a fresh cycle counter. Low cost hooks like this never hurt and can only ever help, and since this costs basically nothing for an operation that is never a fast path, this is an overall easy win.

prlimit: do not grab the tasklist_lock
Unnecessarily grabbing the tasklist_lock can be a scalability bottleneck for workloads that also must grab the tasklist_lock for waiting, killing, and cloning. The tasklist_lock was grabbed to protect tsk->sighand from disappearing (becoming NULL). tsk->signal was already protected by holding a reference to tsk. update_rlimit_cpu() assumed tsk->sighand != NULL. With this commit, it attempts to lock_task_sighand(). However, this means that update_rlimit_cpu() can fail. This only happens when a task is exiting. Note that during exec, sighand may *change*, but it will not be NULL. Prior to this commit, the do_prlimit() ensured that update_rlimit_cpu() would not fail by read locking the tasklist_lock and checking tsk->sighand != NULL. If update_rlimit_cpu() fails, there may be other tasks that are not exiting that share tsk->signal. However, the group_leader is the last task to be released, so if we cannot update_rlimit_cpu(group_leader), then the entire process is exiting. The only other caller of update_rlimit_cpu() is selinux_bprm_committing_creds(). It has tsk == current, so update_rlimit_cpu() cannot fail (current->sighand cannot disappear until current exits). This change resulted in a 14% speedup on a microbenchmark where parents kill and wait on their children, and children getpriority, setpriority, and getrlimit.

During set*id() which cred->ucounts to charge the the current process
to is not known until after set_cred_ucounts. So move the
RLIMIT_NPROC checking into a new helper flag_nproc_exceeded and call
flag_nproc_exceeded after set_cred_ucounts.
This is very much an arbitrary subset of the places where we currently
change the RLIMIT_NPROC accounting, designed to preserve the existing

kernel/sys.c: only take tasklist_lock for get/setpriority(PRIO_PGRP)
PRIO_PGRP needs the tasklist_lock mainly to serialize vs setpgid(2), to protect against any concurrent change_pid(PIDTYPE_PGID) that can move the task from one hlist to another while iterating. However, the remaining can only rely only on RCU: PRIO_PROCESS only does the task lookup and never iterates over tasklist and we already have an rcu-aware stable pointer. PRIO_USER is already racy vs setuid(2) so with creds being rcu protected, we can end up seeing stale data. When removing the tasklist_lock there can be a race with (i) fork but this is benign as the child's nice is inherited and the new task is not observable by the user yet either, hence the return semantics do not differ. And (ii) a race with exit, which is a small window and can cause us to miss a task which was removed from the list and it had the highest nice. Similarly change the buggy do_each_thread/while_each_thread combo in PRIO_USER for the rcu-safe for_each_process_thread flavor, which doesn't make use of next_thread/p->thread_group.

mm: add a field to store names for private anonymous memory
In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way to track them. On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs. unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that share them (PSS). If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory across the whole system. Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems. It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls, more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that the kernel is already tracking. This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as [anon:<name>]. Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name) Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'. Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas, which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or /proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a library, tid of the thread using it, etc. The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged. The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage. CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas. The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal. It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from vm_area_struct. One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a process. This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Currently, arg2 must be one of: PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed 80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset.

prctl: allow to setup brk for et_dyn executables
Keno Fischer reported that when a binray loaded via ld-linux-x the
prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP) doesn't allow to setup brk value because it lays
before mm:end_data.
For example a test program shows
| # ~/t
|
| start_code 401000
| end_code 401a15
| start_stack 7ffce4577dd0
| start_data 403e10
| end_data 40408c
| start_brk b5b000
| sbrk(0) b5b000
and when executed via ld-linux
| # /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ~/t
|
| start_code 7fc25b0a4000
| end_code 7fc25b0c4524
| start_stack 7fffcc6b2400
| start_data 7fc25b0ce4c0
| end_data 7fc25b0cff98
| start_brk 55555710c000
| sbrk(0) 55555710c000
This of course prevent criu from restoring such programs. Looking into
how kernel operates with brk/start_brk inside brk() syscall I don't see
any problem if we allow to setup brk/start_brk without checking for
end_data. Even if someone pass some weird address here on a purpose then
the worst possible result will be an unexpected unmapping of existing vma
(own vma, since prctl works with the callers memory) but test for
RLIMIT_DATA is still valid and a user won't be able to gain more memory in
case of expanding VMAs via new values shipped with prctl call.

"Remove all in-tree usage of MAP_DENYWRITE from the kernel and remove
VM_DENYWRITE.
There are some (minor) user-visible changes:
- We no longer deny write access to shared libaries loaded via legacy

- We no longer deny write access to the elf interpreter after exec
completed, treating it just like shared libraries (which it often
is).
- We always deny write access to the file linked via /proc/pid/exe:
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE) will fail if write access to the
file cannot be denied, and write access to the file will remain
denied until the link is effectivel gone (exec, termination,
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE)) -- just as if exec'ing the file.

set_user: add capability check when rlimit(RLIMIT_NPROC) exceeds
in copy_process(): non root users but with capability CAP_SYS_RESOURCE
or CAP_SYS_ADMIN will clean PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED flag even
rlimit(RLIMIT_NPROC) exceeds. Add the same capability check logic here.
Align the permission checks in copy_process() and set_user(). In
copy_process() CAP_SYS_RESOURCE or CAP_SYS_ADMIN capable users will be
able to circumvent and clear the PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED flag whereas they
aren't able to the same in set_user(). There's no obvious logic to this
and trying to unearth the reason in the thread didn't go anywhere.
The gist seems to be that this code wants to make sure that a program
can't successfully exec if it has gone through a set*id() transition
while exceeding its RLIMIT_NPROC.
A capable but non-INIT_USER caller getting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED set during
a set*id() transition wouldn't be able to exec right away if they still
exceed their RLIMIT_NPROC at the time of exec. So their exec would fail
in fs/exec.c:
if ((current->flags & PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED) &&
is_ucounts_overlimit(current_ucounts(), UCOUNT_RLIMIT_NPROC, rlimit(RLIMIT_NPROC))) {
retval = -EAGAIN;
goto out_ret;
}
However, if the caller were to fork() right after the set*id()
transition but before the exec while still exceeding their RLIMIT_NPROC
then they would get PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED cleared (while the child would
inherit it):
retval = -EAGAIN;
if (is_ucounts_overlimit(task_ucounts(p), UCOUNT_RLIMIT_NPROC, rlimit(RLIMIT_NPROC))) {
if (p->real_cred->user != INIT_USER &&
!capable(CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) && !capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
goto bad_fork_free;
}
current->flags &= ~PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED;
which means a subsequent exec by the capable caller would now succeed
even though they could still exceed their RLIMIT_NPROC limit. This seems
inconsistent. Allow a CAP_SYS_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capable user to
avoid PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED as they already can in copy_process().

sched: prctl() core-scheduling interface
This patch provides support for setting and copying core scheduling
'task cookies' between threads (PID), processes (TGID), and process
groups (PGID).
The value of core scheduling isn't that tasks don't share a core,
'nosmt' can do that. The value lies in exploiting all the sharing
opportunities that exist to recover possible lost performance and that
requires a degree of flexibility in the API.
From a security perspective (and there are others), the thread,
process and process group distinction is an existent hierarchal
categorization of tasks that reflects many of the security concerns
about 'data sharing'. For example, protecting against cache-snooping
by a thread that can just read the memory directly isn't all that
useful.
With this in mind, subcommands to CREATE/SHARE (TO/FROM) provide a
mechanism to create and share cookies. CREATE/SHARE_TO specify a
target pid with enum pidtype used to specify the scope of the targeted
tasks. For example, PIDTYPE_TGID will share the cookie with the
process and all of it's threads as typically desired in a security
scenario.
API:
prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_GET, tgtpid, pidtype, &cookie)
prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_CREATE, tgtpid, pidtype, NULL)
prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_SHARE_TO, tgtpid, pidtype, NULL)
prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_SHARE_FROM, srcpid, pidtype, NULL)
where 'tgtpid/srcpid == 0' implies the current process and pidtype is
kernel enum pid_type {PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID, PIDTYPE_PGID, ...}.
For return values, EINVAL, ENOMEM are what they say. ESRCH means the
tgtpid/srcpid was not found. EPERM indicates lack of PTRACE permission
access to tgtpid/srcpid. ENODEV indicates your machines lacks SMT.

Reimplement RLIMIT_NPROC on top of ucounts
The rlimit counter is tied to uid in the user_namespace. This allows rlimit values to be specified in userns even if they are already globally exceeded by the user. However, the value of the previous user_namespaces cannot be exceeded. To illustrate the impact of rlimits, let's say there is a program that does not fork. Some service-A wants to run this program as user X in multiple containers. Since the program never fork the service wants to set RLIMIT_NPROC=1. service-A \- program (uid=1000, container1, rlimit_nproc=1) \- program (uid=1000, container2, rlimit_nproc=1) The service-A sets RLIMIT_NPROC=1 and runs the program in container1. When the service-A tries to run a program with RLIMIT_NPROC=1 in container2 it fails since user X already has one running process. We cannot use existing inc_ucounts / dec_ucounts because they do not allow us to exceed the maximum for the counter. Some rlimits can be overlimited by root or if the user has the appropriate capability.

Add a reference to ucounts for each cred
For RLIMIT_NPROC and some other rlimits the user_struct that holds the global limit is kept alive for the lifetime of a process by keeping it in struct cred. Adding a pointer to ucounts in the struct cred will allow to track RLIMIT_NPROC not only for user in the system, but for user in the user_namespace. Updating ucounts may require memory allocation which may fail. So, we cannot change cred.ucounts in the commit_creds() because this function cannot fail and it should always return 0. For this reason, we modify cred.ucounts before calling the commit_creds(). Changelog v6: * Fix null-ptr-deref in is_ucounts_overlimit() detected by trinity. This error was caused by the fact that cred_alloc_blank() left the ucounts pointer empty.

arm64: Introduce prctl(PR_PAC_{SET,GET}_ENABLED_KEYS)
This change introduces a prctl that allows the user program to control which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task. The main reason why this is useful is to enable a userspace ABI that uses PAC to sign and authenticate function pointers and other pointers exposed outside of the function, while still allowing binaries conforming to the ABI to interoperate with legacy binaries that do not sign or authenticate pointers. The idea is that a dynamic loader or early startup code would issue this prctl very early after establishing that a process may load legacy binaries, but before executing any PAC instructions. This change adds a small amount of overhead to kernel entry and exit due to additional required instruction sequences. On a DragonBoard 845c (Cortex-A75) with the powersave governor, the overhead of similar instruction sequences was measured as 4.9ns when simulating the common case where IA is left enabled, or 43.7ns when simulating the uncommon case where IA is disabled. These numbers can be seen as the worst case scenario, since in more realistic scenarios a better performing governor would be used and a newer chip would be used that would support PAC unlike Cortex-A75 and would be expected to be faster than Cortex-A75. On an Apple M1 under a hypervisor, the overhead of the entry/exit instruction sequences introduced by this patch was measured as 0.3ns in the case where IA is left enabled, and 33.0ns in the case where IA is disabled.

Merge tag 'idmapped-mounts-v5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull idmapped mounts from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces idmapped mounts which has been in the making for some
time. Simply put, different mounts can expose the same file or
directory with different ownership. This initial implementation comes
with ports for fat, ext4 and with Christoph's port for xfs with more
filesystems being actively worked on by independent people and
maintainers.
Idmapping mounts handle a wide range of long standing use-cases. Here
are just a few:
- Idmapped mounts make it possible to easily share files between
multiple users or multiple machines especially in complex
scenarios. For example, idmapped mounts will be used in the
implementation of portable home directories in
systemd-homed.service(8) where they allow users to move their home
directory to an external storage device and use it on multiple
computers where they are assigned different uids and gids. This
effectively makes it possible to assign random uids and gids at
login time.
- It is possible to share files from the host with unprivileged
containers without having to change ownership permanently through
chown(2).
- It is possible to idmap a container's rootfs and without having to
mangle every file. For example, Chromebooks use it to share the
user's Download folder with their unprivileged containers in their
Linux subsystem.
- It is possible to share files between containers with
non-overlapping idmappings.
- Filesystem that lack a proper concept of ownership such as fat can
use idmapped mounts to implement discretionary access (DAC)
permission checking.
- They allow users to efficiently changing ownership on a per-mount
basis without having to (recursively) chown(2) all files. In
contrast to chown (2) changing ownership of large sets of files is
instantenous with idmapped mounts. This is especially useful when
ownership of a whole root filesystem of a virtual machine or
container is changed. With idmapped mounts a single syscall
mount_setattr syscall will be sufficient to change the ownership of
all files.
- Idmapped mounts always take the current ownership into account as
idmappings specify what a given uid or gid is supposed to be mapped
to. This contrasts with the chown(2) syscall which cannot by itself
take the current ownership of the files it changes into account. It
simply changes the ownership to the specified uid and gid. This is
especially problematic when recursively chown(2)ing a large set of
files which is commong with the aforementioned portable home
directory and container and vm scenario.
- Idmapped mounts allow to change ownership locally, restricting it
to specific mounts, and temporarily as the ownership changes only
apply as long as the mount exists.
Several userspace projects have either already put up patches and
pull-requests for this feature or will do so should you decide to pull
this:
- systemd: In a wide variety of scenarios but especially right away
in their implementation of portable home directories.
https://systemd.io/HOME_DIRECTORY/
- container runtimes: containerd, runC, LXD:To share data between
host and unprivileged containers, unprivileged and privileged
containers, etc. The pull request for idmapped mounts support in
containerd, the default Kubernetes runtime is already up for quite
a while now: https://github.com/containerd/containerd/pull/4734
- The virtio-fs developers and several users have expressed interest
in using this feature with virtual machines once virtio-fs is
ported.
- ChromeOS: Sharing host-directories with unprivileged containers.
I've tightly synced with all those projects and all of those listed
here have also expressed their need/desire for this feature on the
mailing list. For more info on how people use this there's a bunch of
talks about this too. Here's just two recent ones:
https://www.cncf.io/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Rootless-Containers-in-Gitpod.pdf
https://fosdem.org/2021/schedule/event/containers_idmap/
This comes with an extensive xfstests suite covering both ext4 and
xfs:
https://git.kernel.org/brauner/xfstests-dev/h/idmapped_mounts
It covers truncation, creation, opening, xattrs, vfscaps, setid
execution, setgid inheritance and more both with idmapped and
non-idmapped mounts. It already helped to discover an unrelated xfs
setgid inheritance bug which has since been fixed in mainline. It will
be sent for inclusion with the xfstests project should you decide to
merge this.
In order to support per-mount idmappings vfsmounts are marked with
user namespaces. The idmapping of the user namespace will be used to
map the ids of vfs objects when they are accessed through that mount.
By default all vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace.
The initial user namespace is used to indicate that a mount is not
idmapped. All operations behave as before and this is verified in the
testsuite.
Based on prior discussions we want to attach the whole user namespace
and not just a dedicated idmapping struct. This allows us to reuse all
the helpers that already exist for dealing with idmappings instead of
introducing a whole new range of helpers. In addition, if we decide in
the future that we are confident enough to enable unprivileged users
to setup idmapped mounts the permission checking can take into account
whether the caller is privileged in the user namespace the mount is
currently marked with.
The user namespace the mount will be marked with can be specified by
passing a file descriptor refering to the user namespace as an
argument to the new mount_setattr() syscall together with the new
MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP flag. The system call follows the openat2() pattern
of extensibility.
The following conditions must be met in order to create an idmapped
mount:
- The caller must currently have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability in the
user namespace the underlying filesystem has been mounted in.
- The underlying filesystem must support idmapped mounts.
- The mount must not already be idmapped. This also implies that the
idmapping of a mount cannot be altered once it has been idmapped.
- The mount must be a detached/anonymous mount, i.e. it must have
been created by calling open_tree() with the OPEN_TREE_CLONE flag
and it must not already have been visible in the filesystem.
The last two points guarantee easier semantics for userspace and the
kernel and make the implementation significantly simpler.
By default vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace and no
behavioral or performance changes are observed.

kbuild: simplify access to the kernel's version
Instead of storing the version in a single integer and having various kernel (and userspace) code how it's constructed, export individual (major, patchlevel, sublevel) components and simplify kernel code that uses it.

fs: add file and path permissions helpers
Add two simple helpers to check permissions on a file and path respectively and convert over some callers. It simplifies quite a few codepaths and also reduces the churn in later patches quite a bit. Christoph also correctly points out that this makes codepaths (e.g. ioctls) way easier to follow that would otherwise have to do more complex argument passing than necessary.

kernel: Implement selective syscall userspace redirection
Introduce a mechanism to quickly disable/enable syscall handling for a specific process and redirect to userspace via SIGSYS. This is useful for processes with parts that require syscall redirection and parts that don't, but who need to perform this boundary crossing really fast, without paying the cost of a system call to reconfigure syscall handling on each boundary transition. This is particularly important for Windows games running over Wine. The proposed interface looks like this: prctl(PR_SET_SYSCALL_USER_DISPATCH, <op>, <off>, <length>, [selector]) The range [<offset>,<offset>+<length>) is a part of the process memory map that is allowed to by-pass the redirection code and dispatch syscalls directly, such that in fast paths a process doesn't need to disable the trap nor the kernel has to check the selector. This is essential to return from SIGSYS to a blocked area without triggering another SIGSYS from rt_sigreturn. selector is an optional pointer to a char-sized userspace memory region that has a key switch for the mechanism. This key switch is set to either PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ON, PR_SYS_DISPATCH_OFF to enable and disable the redirection without calling the kernel. The feature is meant to be set per-thread and it is disabled on fork/clone/execv. Internally, this doesn't add overhead to the syscall hot path, and it requires very little per-architecture support. I avoided using seccomp, even though it duplicates some functionality, due to previous feedback that maybe it shouldn't mix with seccomp since it is not a security mechanism. And obviously, this should never be considered a security mechanism, since any part of the program can by-pass it by using the syscall dispatcher. For the sysinfo benchmark, which measures the overhead added to executing a native syscall that doesn't require interception, the overhead using only the direct dispatcher region to issue syscalls is pretty much irrelevant. The overhead of using the selector goes around 40ns for a native (unredirected) syscall in my system, and it is (as expected) dominated by the supervisor-mode user-address access. In fact, with SMAP off, the overhead is consistently less than 5ns on my test box.

LSM: Signal to SafeSetID when setting group IDs
For SafeSetID to properly gate set*gid() calls, it needs to know whether ns_capable() is being called from within a sys_set*gid() function or is being called from elsewhere in the kernel. This allows SafeSetID to deny CAP_SETGID to restricted groups when they are attempting to use the capability for code paths other than updating GIDs (e.g. setting up userns GID mappings). This is the identical approach to what is currently done for CAP_SETUID. NOTE: We also add signaling to SafeSetID from the setgroups() syscall, as we have future plans to restrict a process' ability to set supplementary groups in addition to what is added in this series for restricting setting of the primary group.
