For the first case (extended struct, older kernel) the new fields in an extended struct can be set to zero and the struct safely passed to an older kernel. The most obvious benefit is that this helper lets us get rid of duplicate code present in at least sched_setattr(), perf_event_open(), and clone3(). More importantly it will also help to ensure that users implementing versioning-by-size end up with the same core semantics. This point is especially crucial since we have at least one case where versioning-by-size is used but with slighly different semantics: sched_setattr(), perf_event_open(), and clone3() all do do similar checks to copy_struct_from_user() while rt_sigprocmask(2) always rejects differently-sized struct arguments.

sched_setattr: switch to copy_struct_from_user()
Switch sched_setattr() syscall from it's own copying struct sched_attr
from userspace to the new dedicated copy_struct_from_user() helper.
The change is very straightforward, and helps unify the syscall
interface for struct-from-userspace syscalls. Ideally we could also
unify sched_getattr(2)-style syscalls as well, but unfortunately the
correct semantics for such syscalls are much less clear (see [1] for
more detail). In future we could come up with a more sane idea for how
the syscall interface should look.

After r372664 in clang, the IF_ASSIGN macro causes a couple hundred
warnings along the lines of:

^
264 warnings generated.
This warning can catch issues with constructs like:
if (state == A || B)
where the developer really meant:
if (state == A || state == B)
This is currently the only occurrence of the warning in the kernel
tree across defconfig, allyesconfig, allmodconfig for arm32, arm64,
and x86_64. Add the implicit '!= 0' to the WARN_ON statement to fix
the warnings and find potential issues in the future.

Merge branch 'next-lockdown' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
"This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.
From the original description:
This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.
The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
to not requiring external patches.
There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:
- Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/
- Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.
The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
permitted.
The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:
lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}
Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.
This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
overriden by kernel configuration.
New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
include/linux/security.h for details.
The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

This contained a lot of refactoring of the existing appended signature verification code, so that IMA could retain the existing framework of calculating the file hash once, storing it in the IMA measurement list and extending the TPM, verifying the file's integrity based on a file hash or signature (eg. xattrs), and adding an audit record containing the file hash, all based on policy. (The IMA support for appended signatures patch set was posted and reviewed 11 times.) The support for appended signature paves the way for adding other signature verification methods, such as fs-verity, based on a single system-wide policy.

tick: broadcast-hrtimer: Fix a race in bc_set_next
When a cpu requests broadcasting, before starting the tick broadcast
hrtimer, bc_set_next() checks if the timer callback (bc_handler) is active
using hrtimer_try_to_cancel(). But hrtimer_try_to_cancel() does not provide
the required synchronization when the callback is active on other core.
The callback could have already executed tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast()
and could have also returned. But still there is a small time window where
the hrtimer_try_to_cancel() returns -1. In that case bc_set_next() returns
without doing anything, but the next_event of the tick broadcast clock
device is already set to a timeout value.
In the race condition diagram below, CPU #1 is running the timer callback
and CPU #2 is entering idle state and so calls bc_set_next().
In the worst case, the next_event will contain an expiry time, but the
hrtimer will not be started which happens when the racing callback returns
HRTIMER_NORESTART. The hrtimer might never recover if all further requests
from the CPUs to subscribe to tick broadcast have timeout greater than the
next_event of tick broadcast clock device. This leads to cascading of
failures and finally noticed as rcu stall warnings
Here is a depiction of the race condition
CPU #1 (Running timer callback) CPU #2 (Enter idle
and subscribe to
tick broadcast)
--------------------- ---------------------
__run_hrtimer() tick_broadcast_enter()
bc_handler() __tick_broadcast_oneshot_control()
tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast()
raw_spin_lock(&tick_broadcast_lock);
dev->next_event = KTIME_MAX; //wait for tick_broadcast_lock
//next_event for tick broadcast clock
set to KTIME_MAX since no other cores
subscribed to tick broadcasting
raw_spin_unlock(&tick_broadcast_lock);
if (dev->next_event == KTIME_MAX)
return HRTIMER_NORESTART
// callback function exits without
restarting the hrtimer //tick_broadcast_lock acquired
raw_spin_lock(&tick_broadcast_lock);
tick_broadcast_set_event()
clockevents_program_event()
dev->next_event = expires;
bc_set_next()
hrtimer_try_to_cancel()
//returns -1 since the timer
callback is active. Exits without
restarting the timer
cpu_base->running = NULL;
The comment that hrtimer cannot be armed from within the callback is
wrong. It is fine to start the hrtimer from within the callback. Also it is
safe to start the hrtimer from the enter/exit idle code while the broadcast
handler is active. The enter/exit idle code and the broadcast handler are
synchronized using tick_broadcast_lock. So there is no need for the
existing try to cancel logic. All this can be removed which will eliminate
the race condition as well.

bpf: Fix bpf_event_output re-entry issue
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS program can reenter bpf_event_output because it
can be called from atomic and non-atomic contexts since we don't have
bpf_prog_active to prevent it happen.
This patch enables 3 levels of nesting to support normal, irq and nmi
context.
We can easily reproduce the issue by running netperf crr mode with 100
flows and 10 threads from netperf client side.

bug: lift "cut here" out of __warn()
In preparation for cleaning up "cut here", move the "cut here" logic up out of __warn() and into callers that pass non-NULL args. For anyone looking closely, there are two callers that pass NULL args: one already explicitly prints "cut here". The remaining case is covered by how a WARN is built, which will be cleaned up in the next patch.

bug: refactor away warn_slowpath_fmt_taint()
Patch series "Clean up WARN() "cut here" handling", v2. Christophe Leroy noticed that the fix for missing "cut here" in the WARN() case was adding explicit printk() calls instead of teaching the exception handler to add it. This refactors the bug/warn infrastructure to pass this information as a new BUGFLAG. Longer details repeated from the last patch in the series: bug: move WARN_ON() "cut here" into exception handler The original cleanup of "cut here" missed the WARN_ON() case (that does not have a printk message), which was fixed recently by adding an explicit printk of "cut here". This had the downside of adding a printk() to every WARN_ON() caller, which reduces the utility of using an instruction exception to streamline the resulting code. By making this a new BUGFLAG, all of these can be removed and "cut here" can be handled by the exception handler. This was very pronounced on PowerPC, but the effect can be seen on x86 as well. The resulting text size of a defconfig build shows some small savings from this patch: text data bss dec hex filename 19691167 5134320 1646664 26472151 193eed7 vmlinux.before 19676362 5134260 1663048 26473670 193f4c6 vmlinux.after This change also opens the door for creating something like BUG_MSG(), where a custom printk() before issuing BUG(), without confusing the "cut here" line.

kgdb: don't use a notifier to enter kgdb at panic; call directly
Right now kgdb/kdb hooks up to debug panics by registering for the panic notifier. This works OK except that it means that kgdb/kdb gets called _after_ the CPUs in the system are taken offline. That means that if anything important was happening on those CPUs (like something that might have contributed to the panic) you can't debug them. Specifically I ran into a case where I got a panic because a task was "blocked for more than 120 seconds" which was detected on CPU 2. I nicely got shown stack traces in the kernel log for all CPUs including CPU 0, which was running 'PID: 111 Comm: kworker/0:1H' and was in the middle of __mmc_switch(). I then ended up at the kdb prompt where switched over to kgdb to try to look at local variables of the process on CPU 0. I found that I couldn't. Digging more, I found that I had no info on any tasks running on CPUs other than CPU 2 and that asking kdb for help showed me "Error: no saved data for this cpu". This was because all the CPUs were offline. Let's move the entry of kdb/kgdb to a direct call from panic() and stop using the generic notifier. Putting a direct call in allows us to order things more properly and it also doesn't seem like we're breaking any abstractions by calling into the debugger from the panic function. Daniel said: : This patch changes the way kdump and kgdb interact with each other. : However it would seem rather odd to have both tools simultaneously armed : and, even if they were, the user still has the option to use panic_timeout : to force a kdump to happen. Thus I think the change of order is : acceptable.

kexec: bail out upon SIGKILL when allocating memory.
syzbot found that a thread can stall for minutes inside kexec_load() after that thread was killed by SIGKILL [1].

fork: improve error message for corrupted page tables
When a user process exits, the kernel cleans up the mm_struct of the user process and during cleanup, check_mm() checks the page tables of the user process for corruption (E.g: unexpected page flags set/cleared). For corrupted page tables, the error message printed by check_mm() isn't very clear as it prints the loop index instead of page table type (E.g: Resident file mapping pages vs Resident shared memory pages). The loop index in check_mm() is used to index rss_stat[] which represents individual memory type stats. Hence, instead of printing index, print memory type, thereby improving error message.

sched/fair: Avoid redundant EAS calculation
The EAS wake-up path computes the system energy for several CPU
candidates: the CPU with maximum spare capacity in each performance
domain, and the prev_cpu. However, if prev_cpu also happens to be the
CPU with maximum spare capacity in its performance domain, the energy
calculation is still done twice, unnecessarily.
Add a condition to filter out this corner case before doing the energy
calculation.

sched/membarrier: Fix p->mm->membarrier_state racy load
The membarrier_state field is located within the mm_struct, which is not guaranteed to exist when used from runqueue-lock-free iteration on runqueues by the membarrier system call. Copy the membarrier_state from the mm_struct into the scheduler runqueue when the scheduler switches between mm. When registering membarrier for mm, after setting the registration bit in the mm membarrier state, issue a synchronize_rcu() to ensure the scheduler observes the change. In order to take care of the case where a runqueue keeps executing the target mm without swapping to other mm, iterate over each runqueue and issue an IPI to copy the membarrier_state from the mm_struct into each runqueue which have the same mm which state has just been modified. Move the mm membarrier_state field closer to pgd in mm_struct to use a cache line already touched by the scheduler switch_mm. The membarrier_execve() (now membarrier_exec_mmap) hook now needs to clear the runqueue's membarrier state in addition to clear the mm membarrier state, so move its implementation into the scheduler membarrier code so it can access the runqueue structure. Add memory barrier in membarrier_exec_mmap() prior to clearing the membarrier state, ensuring memory accesses executed prior to exec are not reordered with the stores clearing the membarrier state. As suggested by Linus, move all membarrier.c RCU read-side locks outside of the for each cpu loops.

tasks, sched/core: RCUify the assignment of rq->curr
The current task on the runqueue is currently read with rcu_dereference(). To obtain ordinary RCU semantics for an rcu_dereference() of rq->curr it needs to be paired with rcu_assign_pointer() of rq->curr. Which provides the memory barrier necessary to order assignments to the task_struct and the assignment to rq->curr. Unfortunately the assignment of rq->curr in __schedule is a hot path, and it has already been show that additional barriers in that code will reduce the performance of the scheduler. So I will attempt to describe below why you can effectively have ordinary RCU semantics without any additional barriers. The assignment of rq->curr in init_idle is a slow path called once per cpu and that can use rcu_assign_pointer() without any concerns. As I write this there are effectively two users of rcu_dereference() on rq->curr. There is the membarrier code in kernel/sched/membarrier.c that only looks at "->mm" after the rcu_dereference(). Then there is task_numa_compare() in kernel/sched/fair.c. My best reading of the code shows that task_numa_compare only access: "->flags", "->cpus_ptr", "->numa_group", "->numa_faults[]", "->total_numa_faults", and "->se.cfs_rq". The code in __schedule() essentially does: rq_lock(...); smp_mb__after_spinlock(); next = pick_next_task(...); rq->curr = next; context_switch(prev, next); At the start of the function the rq_lock/smp_mb__after_spinlock pair provides a full memory barrier. Further there is a full memory barrier in context_switch(). This means that any task that has already run and modified itself (the common case) has already seen two memory barriers before __schedule() runs and begins executing. A task that modifies itself then sees a third full memory barrier pair with the rq_lock(); For a brand new task that is enqueued with wake_up_new_task() there are the memory barriers present from the taking and release the pi_lock and the rq_lock as the processes is enqueued as well as the full memory barrier at the start of __schedule() assuming __schedule() happens on the same cpu. This means that by the time we reach the assignment of rq->curr except for values on the task struct modified in pick_next_task the code has the same guarantees as if it used rcu_assign_pointer(). Reading through all of the implementations of pick_next_task it appears pick_next_task is limited to modifying the task_struct fields "->se", "->rt", "->dl". These fields are the sched_entity structures of the varies schedulers. Further "->se.cfs_rq" is only changed in cgroup attach/move operations initialized by userspace. Unless I have missed something this means that in practice that the users of "rcu_dereference(rq->curr)" get normal RCU semantics of rcu_dereference() for the fields the care about, despite the assignment of rq->curr in __schedule() ot using rcu_assign_pointer.

In particular now that there tasks exiting the runqueue exprience a RCU grace period none of the work performed by task_rcu_dereference() excpet the rcu_dereference() is necessary so replace task_rcu_dereference() with rcu_dereference(). Remove the code in rcuwait_wait_event() that checks to ensure the current task has not exited. It is no longer necessary as it is guaranteed that any running task will experience a RCU grace period after it leaves the run queueue. Remove the comment in rcuwait_wake_up() as it is no longer relevant. Ref: |

In the ordinary case today the RCU grace period for a task_struct is triggered when another process wait's for it's zombine and causes the kernel to call release_task(). As the waiting task has to receive a signal and then act upon it before this happens, typically this will occur after the original task as been removed from the runqueue. Unfortunaty in some cases such as self reaping tasks it can be shown that release_task() will be called starting the grace period for task_struct long before the task leaves the runqueue. Therefore use put_task_struct_rcu_user() in finish_task_switch() to guarantee that the there is a RCU lifetime after the task leaves the runqueue. Besides the change in the start of the RCU grace period for the task_struct this change may cause perf_event_delayed_put and trace_sched_process_free. The function perf_event_delayed_put boils down to just a WARN_ON for cases that I assume never show happen. So I don't see any problem with delaying it. The function trace_sched_process_free is a trace point and thus visible to user space. Occassionally userspace has the strangest dependencies so this has a miniscule chance of causing a regression. This change only changes the timing of when the tracepoint is called. The change in timing arguably gives userspace a more accurate picture of what is going on. So I don't expect there to be a regression. In the case where a task self reaps we are pretty much guaranteed that the RCU grace period is delayed. So we should get quite a bit of coverage in of this worst case for the change in a normal threaded workload. So I expect any issues to turn up quickly or not at all. I have lightly tested this change and everything appears to work fine. Inspired-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Inspired-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

tasks: Add a count of task RCU users
Add a count of the number of RCU users (currently 1) of the task struct so that we can later add the scheduler case and get rid of the very subtle task_rcu_dereference(), and just use rcu_dereference(). As suggested by Oleg have the count overlap rcu_head so that no additional space in task_struct is required.
