2019-07-18objtool: Support conditional retpolinesJosh Poimboeuf2-2/+11
A Clang-built kernel is showing the following warning: arch/x86/kernel/platform-quirks.o: warning: objtool: x86_early_init_platform_quirks()+0x84: unreachable instruction That corresponds to this code: 7e: 0f 85 00 00 00 00 jne 84 <x86_early_init_platform_quirks+0x84> 80: R_X86_64_PC32 __x86_indirect_thunk_r11-0x4 84: c3 retq This is a conditional retpoline sibling call, which is now possible thanks to retpolines. Objtool hasn't seen that before. It's incorrectly interpreting the conditional jump as an unconditional dynamic jump.

This makes it easier to add new instruction types. Also it's hopefully more robust since the compiler should warn about out-of-range enums.

Objtool doesn't actually emulate all the code, so it isn't smart enough to know that all the middle entries aren't reachable. They point to the NOP padding area after the end of the function, so objtool seg faulted when it tried to dereference a NULL insn->func. After this fix, objtool still gives an "unreachable" error because it stops reading the jump table when it encounters the bad addresses: /home/jpoimboe/objtool-tests/adm1275.o: warning: objtool: adm1275_probe()+0x828: unreachable instruction While the above code is technically correct, it's very wasteful of memory -- it uses 34 jump table entries when only 4 are needed. It's also not possible for objtool to validate this type of switch table because the unused entries point outside the function and objtool has no way of determining if that's intentional. Hopefully the Clang folks can fix it.

2019-07-18objtool: Support repeated uses of the same C jump tableJann Horn3-25/+30
This fixes objtool for both a GCC issue and a Clang issue: 1) GCC issue: kernel/bpf/core.o: warning: objtool: ___bpf_prog_run()+0x8d5: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame With CONFIG_RETPOLINE=n, GCC is doing the following optimization in ___bpf_prog_run(). Before: select_insn: jmp *jumptable(,%rax,8) ... ALU64_ADD_X: ... jmp select_insn ALU_ADD_X: ... jmp select_insn After: select_insn: jmp *jumptable(, %rax, 8) ... ALU64_ADD_X: ... jmp *jumptable(, %rax, 8) ALU_ADD_X: ... jmp *jumptable(, %rax, 8) This confuses objtool. It has never seen multiple indirect jump sites which use the same jump table. For GCC switch tables, the only way of detecting the size of a table is by continuing to scan for more tables. The size of the previous table can only be determined after another switch table is found, or when the scan reaches the end of the function. That logic was reused for C jump tables, and was based on the assumption that each jump table only has a single jump site. The above optimization breaks that assumption. 2) Clang issue: drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb.o: warning: objtool: sisusb_write_mem_bulk()+0x588: can't find switch jump table With clang 9, code can be generated where a function contains two indirect jump instructions which use the same switch table. The fix is the same for both issues: split the jump table parsing into two passes. In the first pass, locate the heads of all switch tables for the function and mark their locations. In the second pass, parse the switch tables and add them.

2019-07-18objtool: Track original function across branchesJosh Poimboeuf1-16/+12
If 'insn->func' is NULL, objtool skips some important checks, including sibling call validation. So if some .fixup code does an invalid sibling call, objtool ignores it. Treat all code branches (including alts) as part of the original function by keeping track of the original func value from validate_functions(). This improves the usefulness of some clang function fallthrough warnings, and exposes some additional kernel bugs in the process.

2019-07-18kbuild: create *.mod with full directory path and remove MODVERDIRMasahiro Yamada1-2/+2
While descending directories, Kbuild produces objects for modules, but do not link final *.ko files; it is done in the modpost. To keep track of modules, Kbuild creates a *.mod file in $(MODVERDIR) for every module it is building. Some post-processing steps read the necessary information from *.mod files. This avoids descending into directories again. This mechanism was introduced in 2003 or so. Later, commit 551559e13af1 ("kbuild: implement modules.order") added modules.order. So, we can simply read it out to know all the modules with directory paths. This is easier than parsing the first line of *.mod files. $(MODVERDIR) has a flat directory structure, that is, *.mod files are named only with base names. This is based on the assumption that the module name is unique across the tree. This assumption is really fragile. Stephen Rothwell reported a race condition caused by a module name conflict: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991 In parallel building, two different threads could write to the same $(MODVERDIR)/*.mod simultaneously. Non-unique module names are the source of all kind of troubles, hence commit 3a48a91901c5 ("kbuild: check uniqueness of module names") introduced a new checker script. However, it is still fragile in the build system point of view because this race happens before scripts/modules-check.sh is invoked. If it happens again, the modpost will emit unclear error messages. To fix this issue completely, create *.mod with full directory path so that two threads never attempt to write to the same file. $(MODVERDIR) is no longer needed. Since modules with directory paths are listed in modules.order, Kbuild is still able to find *.mod files without additional descending. I also killed cmd_secanalysis; scripts/mod/sumversion.c computes MD4 hash for modules with MODULE_VERSION(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y, it occurs not only in the modpost stage, but also during directory descending, where sumversion.c may parse stale *.mod files. It would emit 'No such file or directory' warning when an object consisting a module is renamed, or when a single-obj module is turned into a multi-obj module or vice versa.

2019-07-16ptrace: add PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO requestElvira Khabirova1-4/+9
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO is a generic ptrace API that lets ptracer obtain details of the syscall the tracee is blocked in. There are two reasons for a special syscall-related ptrace request. Firstly, with the current ptrace API there are cases when ptracer cannot retrieve necessary information about syscalls. Some examples include: * The notorious int-0x80-from-64-bit-task issue. See [1] for details. In short, if a 64-bit task performs a syscall through int 0x80, its tracer has no reliable means to find out that the syscall was, in fact, a compat syscall, and misidentifies it. * Syscall-enter-stop and syscall-exit-stop look the same for the tracer. Common practice is to keep track of the sequence of ptrace-stops in order not to mix the two syscall-stops up. But it is not as simple as it looks; for example, strace had a (just recently fixed) long-standing bug where attaching strace to a tracee that is performing the execve system call led to the tracer identifying the following syscall-exit-stop as syscall-enter-stop, which messed up all the state tracking. * Since the introduction of commit 84d77d3f06e7 ("ptrace: Don't allow accessing an undumpable mm"), both PTRACE_PEEKDATA and process_vm_readv become unavailable when the process dumpable flag is cleared. On such architectures as ia64 this results in all syscall arguments being unavailable for the tracer. Secondly, ptracers also have to support a lot of arch-specific code for obtaining information about the tracee. For some architectures, this requires a ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKUSER, ...) invocation for every syscall argument and return value. ptrace(2) man page: long ptrace(enum __ptrace_request request, pid_t pid, void *addr, void *data); ... PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO Retrieve information about the syscall that caused the stop. The information is placed into the buffer pointed by "data" argument, which should be a pointer to a buffer of type "struct ptrace_syscall_info". The "addr" argument contains the size of the buffer pointed to by "data" argument (i.e., sizeof(struct ptrace_syscall_info)). The return value contains the number of bytes available to be written by the kernel. If the size of data to be written by the kernel exceeds the size specified by "addr" argument, the output is truncated.

2019-07-16ftrace/selftests: Return the skip code when tracing directory not configured in kernelSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-6/+32
If the kernel is not configured with ftrace enabled, the ftracetest selftests should return the error code of "4" as that is the kselftests "skip" code, and not "1" which means an error. To determine if ftrace is enabled, first the newer "tracefs" is searched for in /proc/mounts. If it is not found, then "debugfs" is searched for (as old kernels do not have tracefs). If that is not found, an attempt to mount the tracefs or debugfs is performed. This is done by seeing first if the /sys/kernel/tracing directory exists. If it does than tracefs is configured in the kernel and an attempt to mount it is performed. If /sys/kernel/tracing does not exist, then /sys/kernel/debug is tested to see if that directory exists. If it does, then an attempt to mount debugfs on that directory is performed. If it does not exist, then debugfs is not configured in the running kernel and the test exits with the skip code. If either mount fails, then a normal error is returned as they do exist in the kernel but something went wrong to mount them. This changes the test to always try the tracefs file system first as it has been in the kernel for some time now and it is better to test it if it is available instead of always testing debugfs.

2019-07-15LSM: SafeSetID: verify transitive constrainednessJann Horn1-1/+3
Someone might write a ruleset like the following, expecting that it securely constrains UID 1 to UIDs 1, 2 and 3: 1:2 1:3 However, because no constraints are applied to UIDs 2 and 3, an attacker with UID 1 can simply first switch to UID 2, then switch to any UID from there. The secure way to write this ruleset would be: 1:2 1:3 2:2 3:3 , which uses "transition to self" as a way to inhibit the default-allow policy without allowing anything specific. This is somewhat unintuitive. To make sure that policy authors don't accidentally write insecure policies because of this, let the kernel verify that a new ruleset does not contain any entries that are constrained, but transitively unconstrained.

2019-07-15LSM: SafeSetID: rewrite userspace API to atomic updatesJann Horn1-11/+5
The current API of the SafeSetID LSM uses one write() per rule, and applies each written rule instantly. This has several downsides: - While a policy is being loaded, once a single parent-child pair has been loaded, the parent is restricted to that specific child, even if subsequent rules would allow transitions to other child UIDs. This means that during policy loading, set*uid() can randomly fail. - To replace the policy without rebooting, it is necessary to first flush all old rules. This creates a time window in which no constraints are placed on the use of CAP_SETUID. - If we want to perform sanity checks on the final policy, this requires that the policy isn't constructed in a piecemeal fashion without telling the kernel when it's done. Other kernel APIs - including things like the userns code and netfilter - avoid this problem by performing updates atomically. Luckily, SafeSetID hasn't landed in a stable (upstream) release yet, so maybe it's not too late to completely change the API. The new API for SafeSetID is: If you want to change the policy, open "safesetid/whitelist_policy" and write the entire policy, newline-delimited, in there.

2019-07-15docs: blockdev: convert to ReSTMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Rename the blockdev documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. The drbd sub-directory contains some graphs and data flows. Add those too to the documentation. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
