2021-09-03binfmt: remove in-tree usage of MAP_DENYWRITEDavid Hildenbrand1-4/+2
At exec time when we mmap the new executable via MAP_DENYWRITE we have it opened via do_open_execat() and already deny_write_access()'ed the file successfully. Once exec completes, we allow_write_acces(); however, we set mm->exe_file in begin_new_exec() via set_mm_exe_file() and also deny_write_access() as long as mm->exe_file remains set. We'll effectively deny write access to our executable via mm->exe_file until mm->exe_file is changed -- when the process is removed, on new exec, or via sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE). Let's remove all usage of MAP_DENYWRITE, it's no longer necessary for mm->exe_file. In case of an elf interpreter, we'll now only deny write access to the file during exec. This is somewhat okay, because the interpreter behaves (and sometime is) a shared library; all shared libraries, especially the ones loaded directly in user space like via dlopen() won't ever be mapped via MAP_DENYWRITE, because we ignore that from user space completely; these shared libraries can always be modified while mapped and executed. Let's only special-case the main executable, denying write access while being executed by a process. This can be considered a minor user space visible change. While this is a cleanup, it also fixes part of a problem reported with VM_DENYWRITE on overlayfs, as VM_DENYWRITE is effectively unused with this patch and will be removed next: "Overlayfs did not honor positive i_writecount on realfile for VM_DENYWRITE mappings."

2021-09-03binfmt: don't use MAP_DENYWRITE when loading shared libraries via uselib()David Hildenbrand1-1/+1
uselib() is the legacy systemcall for loading shared libraries. Nowadays, applications use dlopen() to load shared libraries, completely implemented in user space via mmap(). For example, glibc uses MAP_COPY to mmap shared libraries. While this maps to MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_DENYWRITE on Linux, Linux ignores any MAP_DENYWRITE specification from user space in mmap. With this change, all remaining in-tree users of MAP_DENYWRITE use it to map an executable. We will be able to open shared libraries loaded via uselib() writable, just as we already can via dlopen() from user space. This is one step into the direction of removing MAP_DENYWRITE from the kernel. This can be considered a minor user space visible change. Acked-by: "Eric W.

Stop providing the possibility to override the address space using set_fs() now that there is no need for that any more. To properly handle the TASK_SIZE_MAX checking for 4 vs 5-level page tables on x86 a new alternative is introduced, which just like the one in entry_64.S has to use the hardcoded virtual address bits to escape the fact that TASK_SIZE_MAX isn't actually a constant when 5-level page tables are enabled.

2020-08-07mm: remove unneeded includes of <asm/pgalloc.h>Mike Rapoport1-1/+0
Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>" Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable use of the generic functions where appropriate. In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place. The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of <asm/pgalloc.h> In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local to mm/. This patch (of 8): In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header. As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file. The process was somewhat automated using sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \ $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \ $(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h')) where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

For the 32-bit syscall interface, 64-bit arguments (loff_t) are passed via a pair of 32-bit registers. These register pairs end up in consecutive stack slots, which matches the C ABI for 64-bit arguments. But when accessing the registers directly from pt_regs, the wrapper needs to manually reassemble the 64-bit value. These wrappers already exist for 32-bit compat, so make them available to 32-bit native in preparation for enabling pt_regs-based syscalls.

This patch is a pre-requisite for enabling KASAN bitops instrumentation; using static_cpu_has instead of boot_cpu_has avoids instrumentation of test_bit inside the uaccess region. With instrumentation, the KASAN check would otherwise be flagged by objtool. For consistency, kernel/signal.c was changed to mirror this change, however, is never instrumented with KASAN (currently unsupported under x86 32bit).

Pull clone3 system call from Christian Brauner: "This adds the clone3 syscall which is an extensible successor to clone after we snagged the last flag with CLONE_PIDFD during the 5.2 merge window for clone(). It cleanly supports all of the flags from clone() and thus all legacy workloads. There are few user visible differences between clone3 and clone. First, CLONE_DETACHED will cause EINVAL with clone3 so we can reuse this flag. Second, the CSIGNAL flag is deprecated and will cause EINVAL to be reported. It is superseeded by a dedicated "exit_signal" argument in struct clone_args thus freeing up even more flags. And third, clone3 gives CLONE_PIDFD a dedicated return argument in struct clone_args instead of abusing CLONE_PARENT_SETTID's parent_tidptr argument. The clone3 uapi is designed to be easy to handle on 32- and 64 bit: /* uapi */ struct clone_args { __aligned_u64 flags; __aligned_u64 pidfd; __aligned_u64 child_tid; __aligned_u64 parent_tid; __aligned_u64 exit_signal; __aligned_u64 stack; __aligned_u64 stack_size; __aligned_u64 tls; }; and a separate kernel struct is used that uses proper kernel typing: /* kernel internal */ struct kernel_clone_args { u64 flags; int __user *pidfd; int __user *child_tid; int __user *parent_tid; int exit_signal; unsigned long stack; unsigned long stack_size; unsigned long tls; }; The system call comes with a size argument which enables the kernel to detect what version of clone_args userspace is passing in. clone3 validates that any additional bytes a given kernel does not know about are set to zero and that the size never exceeds a page. A nice feature is that this patchset allowed us to cleanup and simplify various core kernel codepaths in kernel/fork.c by making the internal _do_fork() function take struct kernel_clone_args even for legacy clone(). This patch also unblocks the time namespace patchset which wants to introduce a new CLONE_TIMENS flag. Note, that clone3 has only been wired up for x86{_32,64}, arm{64}, and xtensa. These were the architectures that did not require special massaging. Other architectures treat fork-like system calls individually and after some back and forth neither Arnd nor I felt confident that we dared to add clone3 unconditionally to all architectures. We agreed to leave this up to individual architecture maintainers. This is why there's an additional patch that introduces __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 which any architecture can set once it has implemented support for clone3. The patch also adds a cond_syscall(clone3) for architectures such as nios2 or h8300 that generate their syscall table by simply including asm-generic/unistd.h. The hope is to get rid of __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 and cond_syscall() rather soon" * tag 'clone3-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: arch: handle arches who do not yet define clone3 arch: wire-up clone3() syscall fork: add clone3
2019-06-09fork: add clone3Christian Brauner1-2/+10
This adds the clone3 system call. As mentioned several times already (cf. [7], [8]) here's the promised patchset for clone3(). We recently merged the CLONE_PIDFD patchset (cf. [1]). It took the last free flag from clone(). Independent of the CLONE_PIDFD patchset a time namespace has been discussed at Linux Plumber Conference last year and has been sent out and reviewed (cf. [5]). It is expected that it will go upstream in the not too distant future. However, it relies on the addition of the CLONE_NEWTIME flag to clone(). The only other good candidate - CLONE_DETACHED - is currently not recyclable as we have identified at least two large or widely used codebases that currently pass this flag (cf. [2], [3], and [4]). Given that CLONE_PIDFD grabbed the last clone() flag the time namespace is effectively blocked. clone3() has the advantage that it will unblock this patchset again. In general, clone3() is extensible and allows for the implementation of new features. The idea is to keep clone3() very simple and close to the original clone(), specifically, to keep on supporting old clone()-based workloads. We know there have been various creative proposals how a new process creation syscall or even api is supposed to look like. Some people even going so far as to argue that the traditional fork()+exec() split should be abandoned in favor of an in-kernel version of spawn(). Independent of whether or not we personally think spawn() is a good idea this patchset has and does not want to have anything to do with this. One stance we take is that there's no real good alternative to clone()+exec() and we need and want to support this model going forward; independent of spawn(). The following requirements guided clone3(): - bump the number of available flags - move arguments that are currently passed as separate arguments in clone() into a dedicated struct clone_args - choose a struct layout that is easy to handle on 32 and on 64 bit - choose a struct layout that is extensible - give new flags that currently need to abuse another flag's dedicated return argument in clone() their own dedicated return argument (e.g. CLONE_PIDFD) - use a separate kernel internal struct kernel_clone_args that is properly typed according to current kernel conventions in fork.c and is different from the uapi struct clone_args - port _do_fork() to use kernel_clone_args so that all process creation syscalls such as fork(), vfork(), clone(), and clone3() behave identical (Arnd suggested, that we can probably also port do_fork() itself in a separate patchset.) - ease of transition for userspace from clone() to clone3() This very much means that we do *not* remove functionality that userspace currently relies on as the latter is a good way of creating a syscall that won't be adopted. - do not try to be clever or complex: keep clone3() as dumb as possible In accordance with Linus suggestions (cf. [11]), clone3() has the following signature: /* uapi */ struct clone_args { __aligned_u64 flags; __aligned_u64 pidfd; __aligned_u64 child_tid; __aligned_u64 parent_tid; __aligned_u64 exit_signal; __aligned_u64 stack; __aligned_u64 stack_size; __aligned_u64 tls; }; /* kernel internal */ struct kernel_clone_args { u64 flags; int __user *pidfd; int __user *child_tid; int __user *parent_tid; int exit_signal; unsigned long stack; unsigned long stack_size; unsigned long tls; }; long sys_clone3(struct clone_args __user *uargs, size_t size) clone3() cleanly supports all of the supported flags from clone() and thus all legacy workloads. The advantage of sticking close to the old clone() is the low cost for userspace to switch to this new api. Quite a lot of userspace apis (e.g. pthreads) are based on the clone() syscall. With the new clone3() syscall supporting all of the old workloads and opening up the ability to add new features should make switching to it for userspace more appealing. In essence, glibc can just write a simple wrapper to switch from clone() to clone3(). There has been some interest in this patchset already. We have received a patch from the CRIU corner for clone3() that would set the PID/TID of a restored process without /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid to eliminate a race. /* User visible differences to legacy clone() */ - CLONE_DETACHED will cause EINVAL with clone3() - CSIGNAL is deprecated It is superseeded by a dedicated "exit_signal" argument in struct clone_args freeing up space for additional flags. This is based on a suggestion from Andrei and Linus (cf.

2019-04-10x86/fpu: Remove fpu->initializedSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-11/+6
The struct fpu.initialized member is always set to one for user tasks and zero for kernel tasks. This avoids saving/restoring the FPU registers for kernel threads. The ->initialized = 0 case for user tasks has been removed in previous changes, for instance, by doing an explicit unconditional init at fork() time for FPU-less systems which was otherwise delayed until the emulated opcode. The context switch code (switch_fpu_prepare() + switch_fpu_finish()) can't unconditionally save/restore registers for kernel threads. Not only would it slow down the switch but also load a zeroed xcomp_bv for XSAVES. For kernel_fpu_begin() (+end) the situation is similar: EFI with runtime services uses this before alternatives_patched is true. Which means that this function is used too early and it wasn't the case before. For those two cases, use current->mm to distinguish between user and kernel thread. For kernel_fpu_begin() skip save/restore of the FPU registers. During the context switch into a kernel thread don't do anything. There is no reason to save the FPU state of a kernel thread. The reordering in __switch_to() is important because the current() pointer needs to be valid before switch_fpu_finish() is invoked so ->mm is seen of the new task instead the old one. N.B.: fpu__save() doesn't need to check ->mm because it is called by user tasks only.

2019-03-05a.out: remove core dumping supportLinus Torvalds1-159/+0
We're (finally) phasing out a.out support for good. As Borislav Petkov points out, we've supported ELF binaries for about 25 years by now, and coredumping in particular has bitrotted over the years. None of the tool chains even support generating a.out binaries any more, and the plan is to deprecate a.out support entirely for the kernel. But I want to start with just removing the core dumping code, because I can still imagine that somebody actually might want to support a.out as a simpler biinary format. Particularly if you generate some random binaries on the fly, ELF is a much more complicated format (admittedly ELF also does have a lot of toolchain support, mitigating that complexity a lot and you really should have moved over in the last 25 years). So it's at least somewhat possible that somebody out there has some workflow that still involves generating and running a.out executables. In contrast, it's very unlikely that anybody depends on debugging any legacy a.out core files. But regardless, I want this phase-out to be done in two steps, so that we can resurrect a.out support (if needed) without having to resurrect the core file dumping that is almost certainly not needed. Jann Horn pointed to the <asm/a.out-core.h> file that my first trivial cut at this had missed. And Alan Cox points out that the a.out binary loader _could_ be done in user space if somebody wants to, but we might keep just the loader in the kernel if somebody really wants it, since the loader isn't that big and has no really odd special cases like the core dumping does.

2019-01-03Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() functionLinus Torvalds3-7/+7
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
