signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_from_user32

2015-08-17T03:51:52+00:00

commit 3c00cb5e68dc719f2fc73a33b1b230aadfcb1309 upstream.

This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a
positive si_code value.  The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields
in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently
between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_to_user.

copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits
of si_code.

This fixes the following information leaks:
x86:   8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
       itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32.
       (si_code = __SI_CHLD)
x86:   100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
       a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1)
sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a
       64-bit process. (si_code = any)

parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because
rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code
to a different process.  These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

MIPS: Make set_pte() SMP safe.

2015-08-17T03:51:45+00:00

commit 46011e6ea39235e4aca656673c500eac81a07a17 upstream.

On MIPS the GLOBAL bit of the PTE must have the same value in any
aligned pair of PTEs.  These pairs of PTEs are referred to as
"buddies".  In a SMP system is is possible for two CPUs to be calling
set_pte() on adjacent PTEs at the same time.  There is a race between
setting the PTE and a different CPU setting the GLOBAL bit in its
buddy PTE.

This race can be observed when multiple CPUs are executing
vmap()/vfree() at the same time.

Make setting the buddy PTE's GLOBAL bit an atomic operation to close
the race condition.

The case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR && CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32 is *not*
handled.

MIPS: Fix sched_getaffinity with MT FPAFF enabled

2015-08-17T03:51:45+00:00

commit 1d62d737555e1378eb62a8bba26644f7d97139d2 upstream.

p->thread.user_cpus_allowed is zero-initialized and is only filled on
the first sched_setaffinity call.

To avoid adding overhead in the task initialization codepath, simply OR
the returned mask in sched_getaffinity with p->cpus_allowed.

MIPS: Malta: Don't reinitialise RTC

2015-08-17T03:51:44+00:00

commit 106eccb4d20f35ebc58ff2286c170d9e79c5ff68 upstream.

On Malta, since commit a87ea88d8f6c ("MIPS: Malta: initialise the RTC at
boot"), the RTC is reinitialised and forced into binary coded decimal
(BCD) mode during init, even if the bootloader has already initialised
it, and may even have already put it into binary mode (as YAMON does).
This corrupts the current time, can result in the RTC seconds being an
invalid BCD (e.g. 0x1a..0x1f) for up to 6 seconds, as well as confusing
YAMON for a while after reset, enough for it to report timeouts when
attempting to load from TFTP (it actually uses the RTC in that code).

Therefore only initialise the RTC to the extent that is necessary so
that Linux avoids interfering with the bootloader setup, while also
allowing it to estimate the CPU frequency without hanging, without a
bootloader necessarily having done anything with the RTC (for example
when the kernel is loaded via EJTAG).

The divider control is configured for a 32KHZ reference clock if
necessary, and the SET bit of the RTC_CONTROL register is cleared if
necessary without changing any other bits (this bit will be set when
coming out of reset if the battery has been disconnected).

MIPS: Fix KVM guest fixmap address

2015-07-10T17:37:59+00:00

commit 8e748c8d09a9314eedb5c6367d9acfaacddcdc88 upstream.

KVM guest kernels for trap & emulate run in user mode, with a modified
set of kernel memory segments. However the fixmap address is still in
the normal KSeg3 region at 0xfffe0000 regardless, causing problems when
cache alias handling makes use of them when handling copy on write.

Therefore define FIXADDR_TOP as 0x7ffe0000 in the guest kernel mapped
region when CONFIG_KVM_GUEST is defined.

MIPS: Fix enabling of DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW

2015-06-23T00:01:21+00:00

commit 5f35b9cd553fd64415b563497d05a563c988dbd6 upstream.

Commit 334c86c494b9 ("MIPS: IRQ: Add stackoverflow detection") added
kernel stack overflow detection, however it only enabled it conditional
upon the preprocessor definition DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW, which is never
actually defined. The Kconfig option is called DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW,
which manifests to the preprocessor as CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW, so
switch it to using that definition instead.

vm: add VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV handling support

2015-04-29T08:31:55+00:00

commit 33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7 upstream.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.

That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works.  However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.

In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV.  And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.

However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space.  And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.

To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it.  They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.

This is the mindless minimal patch to do this.  A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.

Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.
