<id>0d794d0d018f23fb09c50f6ae26868bd6ae343d6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit ca37e57bbe0cf1455ea3e84eb89ed04a132d59e1 upstream.

Running this code with IRQs enabled (where dummy_lock is a spinlock):

static void check_load_gs_index(void)
{
	/* This will fail. */
	load_gs_index(0xffff);

	spin_lock(&amp;dummy_lock);
	spin_unlock(&amp;dummy_lock);
}

Will generate a lockdep warning.  The issue is that the actual write
to %gs would cause an exception with IRQs disabled, and the exception
handler would, as an inadvertent side effect, update irqflag tracing
to reflect the IRQs-off status.  native_load_gs_index() would then
turn IRQs back on and return with irqflag tracing still thinking that
IRQs were off.  The dummy lock-and-unlock causes lockdep to notice the
error and warn.

Fix it by adding the missing tracing.

Apparently nothing did this in a context where it mattered.  I haven't
tried to find a code path that would actually exhibit the warning if
appropriately nasty user code were running.

I suspect that the security impact of this bug is very, very low --
production systems don't run with lockdep enabled, and the warning is
mostly harmless anyway.

Found during a quick audit of the entry code to try to track down an
unrelated bug that Ingo found in some still-in-development code.

commit e93c17301ac55321fc18e0f8316e924e58a83c8c upstream.

This closes a hole in our SMAP implementation.

This patch comes from grsecurity. Good catch!

<title>x86/vdso: Ensure vdso32_enabled gets set to valid values only</title>

commit c06989da39cdb10604d572c8c7ea8c8c97f3c483 upstream.

vdso_enabled can be set to arbitrary integer values via the kernel command
line 'vdso32=' parameter or via 'sysctl abi.vsyscall32'.

load_vdso32() only maps VDSO if vdso_enabled == 1, but ARCH_DLINFO_IA32
merily checks for vdso_enabled != 0. As a consequence the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR
auxiliary vector for the VDSO_ENTRY is emitted with a NULL pointer which
causes a segfault when the application tries to use the VDSO.

Restrict the valid arguments on the command line and the sysctl to 0 and 1.

<title>ftrace/x86_32: Set ftrace_stub to weak to prevent gcc from using short jumps to it</title>

commit 847fa1a6d3d00f3bdf68ef5fa4a786f644a0dd67 upstream.

With new binutils, gcc may get smart with its optimization and change a jmp
from a 5 byte jump to a 2 byte one even though it was jumping to a global
function. But that global function existed within a 2 byte radius, and gcc
was able to optimize it. Unfortunately, that jump was also being modified
when function graph tracing begins. Since ftrace expected that jump to be 5
bytes, but it was only two, it overwrote code after the jump, causing a
crash.

This was fixed for x86_64 with commit 8329e818f149, with the same subject as
this commit, but nothing was done for x86_32.

pkey_set() and pkey_get() were syscalls present in older versions
of the protection keys patches.  The syscall number definitions
were inadvertently left in place.  This patch removes them.

I did a git grep and verified that these are the last places in
the tree that these appear, save for the protection_keys.c tests
and Documentation.  Those spots talk about functions called
pkey_get/set() which are wrappers for the direct PKRU
instructions, not the syscalls.

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:

 - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.

   This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
   checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
   working on a patch to fix this.

   Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
   change prototypes.

 - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
   Piggin

 - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.

 - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
   -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections

 - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell

 - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

* 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: (22 commits)

Pull protection keys syscall interface from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This is the final step of Protection Keys support which adds the
  syscalls so user space can actually allocate keys and protect memory
  areas with them. Details and usage examples can be found in the
  documentation.

  The mm side of this has been acked by Mel"

* 'mm-pkeys-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  x86/pkeys: Update documentation
  x86/mm/pkeys: Do not skip PKRU register if debug registers are not used
  x86/pkeys: Fix pkeys build breakage for some non-x86 arches
  x86/pkeys: Add self-tests
  x86/pkeys: Allow configuration of init_pkru
  x86/pkeys: Default to a restrictive init PKRU
  pkeys: Add details of system call use to Documentation/
  generic syscalls: Wire up memory protection keys syscalls
  x86: Wire up protection keys system calls
  x86/pkeys: Allocation/free syscalls
  x86/pkeys: Make mprotect_key() mask off additional vm_flags
  mm: Implement new pkey_mprotect() system call
  x86/pkeys: Add fault handling for PF_PK page fault bit

Pull x86 updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A pile of regression fixes and updates:

   - address the fallout of the patches which made the cpuid - nodeid
     relation permanent: Handling of invalid APIC ids and preventing
     pointless warning messages.

   - force eager FPU when protection keys are enabled. Protection keys
     are not generating FPU exceptions so they cannot work with the lazy
     FPU mechanism.

   - prevent force migration of interrupts which are not part of the CPU
     vector domain.

   - handle the fact that APIC ids are not updated in the ACPI/MADT
     tables on physical CPU hotplug

   - remove bash-isms from syscall table generator script

   - use the hypervisor supplied APIC frequency when running on VMware"
