ptrace: Provide set/get interface for syscall user dispatch

2023-04-16T12:23:07+00:00

The syscall user dispatch configuration can only be set by the task itself,
but lacks a ptrace set/get interface which makes it impossible to implement
checkpoint/restore for it.

Add the required ptrace requests and the get/set functions in the syscall
user dispatch code to make that possible.

syscall_user_dispatch: Untag selector address before access_ok()

2023-04-16T12:23:07+00:00

To support checkpoint/restart, ptrace must be able to set the selector
of the tracee.  The selector is a user pointer that may be subject to
memory tagging extensions on some architectures (namely ARM MTE).

access_ok() clears memory tags for tagged addresses if the current task has
memory tagging enabled.

This obviously fails when ptrace modifies the selector of a tracee when
tracer and tracee do not have the same memory tagging enabled state.

Solve this by untagging the selector address before handing it to
access_ok(), like other ptrace functions which modify tracee pointers do.

Obviously a tracer can set an invalid selector address for the tracee, but
that's independent of tagging and a general capability of the tracer.

syscall_user_dispatch: Split up set_syscall_user_dispatch()

2023-04-16T12:23:07+00:00

syscall user dispatch configuration is not covered by checkpoint/restore.

To prepare for ptrace access to the syscall user dispatch configuration,
move the inner working of set_syscall_user_dispatch() into a helper
function. Make the helper function task pointer based and let
set_syscall_user_dispatch() invoke it with task=current.

No functional change.

entry/rcu: Check TIF_RESCHED _after_ delayed RCU wake-up

2023-03-21T14:13:15+00:00

RCU sometimes needs to perform a delayed wake up for specific kthreads
handling offloaded callbacks (RCU_NOCB).  These wakeups are performed
by timers and upon entry to idle (also to guest and to user on nohz_full).

However the delayed wake-up on kernel exit is actually performed after
the thread flags are fetched towards the fast path check for work to
do on exit to user. As a result, and if there is no other pending work
to do upon that kernel exit, the current task will resume to userspace
with TIF_RESCHED set and the pending wake up ignored.

Fix this with fetching the thread flags _after_ the delayed RCU-nocb
kthread wake-up.

entry: Fix noinstr warning in __enter_from_user_mode()

2023-03-21T10:53:16+00:00

__enter_from_user_mode() is triggering noinstr warnings with
CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT due to its call of preempt_count_add() via
ct_state().

The preemption disable isn't needed as interrupts are already disabled.
And the context_tracking_enabled() check in ct_state() also isn't needed
as that's already being done by the CT_WARN_ON().

Just use __ct_state() instead.

Fixes the following warnings:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: enter_from_user_mode+0xba: call to preempt_count_add() leaves .noinstr.text section
  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_enter_from_user_mode+0xf9: call to preempt_count_add() leaves .noinstr.text section
  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_enter_from_user_mode_prepare+0xc7: call to preempt_count_add() leaves .noinstr.text section

entry: kmsan: introduce kmsan_unpoison_entry_regs()

2022-10-03T21:03:25+00:00

struct pt_regs passed into IRQ entry code is set up by uninstrumented asm
functions, therefore KMSAN may not notice the registers are initialized.

kmsan_unpoison_entry_regs() unpoisons the contents of struct pt_regs,
preventing potential false positives.  Unlike kmsan_unpoison_memory(), it
can be called under kmsan_in_runtime(), which is often the case in IRQ
entry code.

context_tracking: Take NMI eqs entrypoints over RCU

2022-07-05T20:32:59+00:00

The RCU dynticks counter is going to be merged into the context tracking
subsystem. Prepare with moving the NMI extended quiescent states
entrypoints to context tracking. For now those are dumb redirection to
existing RCU calls.

entry/kvm: Exit to user mode when TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is set

2022-06-07T15:19:00+00:00

A livepatch transition may stall indefinitely when a kvm vCPU is heavily
loaded. To the host, the vCPU task is a user thread which is spending a
very long time in the ioctl(KVM_RUN) syscall. During livepatch
transition, set_notify_signal() will be called on such tasks to
interrupt the syscall so that the task can be transitioned. This
interrupts guest execution, but when xfer_to_guest_mode_work() sees that
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is set but not TIF_SIGPENDING it concludes that an
exit to user mode is unnecessary, and guest execution is resumed without
transitioning the task for the livepatch.

This handling of TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is incorrect, as set_notify_signal()
is expected to break tasks out of interruptible kernel loops and cause
them to return to userspace. Change xfer_to_guest_mode_work() to handle
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL the same as TIF_SIGPENDING, signaling to the vCPU run
loop that an exit to userpsace is needed. Any pending task_work will be
run when get_signal() is called from exit_to_user_mode_loop(), so there
is no longer any need to run task work from xfer_to_guest_mode_work().
