Pull random updates from Ted Ts'o: "Add wait_for_random_bytes() and get_random_*_wait() functions so that callers can more safely get random bytes if they can block until the CRNG is initialized. Also print a warning if get_random_*() is called before the CRNG is initialized. By default, only one single-line warning will be printed per boot. If CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM is defined, then a warning will be printed for each function which tries to get random bytes before the CRNG is initialized.

2017-07-14replace incorrect strscpy use in FORTIFY_SOURCEDaniel Micay1-11/+12
Using strscpy was wrong because FORTIFY_SOURCE is passing the maximum possible size of the outermost object, but strscpy defines the count parameter as the exact buffer size, so this could copy past the end of the source. This would still be wrong with the planned usage of __builtin_object_size(p, 1) for intra-object overflow checks since it's the maximum possible size of the specified object with no guarantee of it being that large. Reuse of the fortified functions like this currently makes the runtime error reporting less precise but that can be improved later on. Noticed by Dave Jones and KASAN.

Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui: - Improve thermal cpu_cooling interaction with cpufreq core. The cpu_cooling driver is designed to use CPU frequency scaling to avoid high thermal states for a platform. But it wasn't glued really well with cpufreq core. For example clipped-cpus is copied from the policy structure and its much better to use the policy->cpus (or related_cpus) fields directly as they may have got updated. Not that things were broken before this series, but they can be optimized a bit more. This series tries to improve interactions between cpufreq core and cpu_cooling driver and does some fixes/cleanups to the cpu_cooling driver.

2017-07-13NFSv4.1: Handle EXCHGID4_FLAG_CONFIRMED_R during NFSv4.1 migrationChuck Lever1-0/+2
Transparent State Migration copies a client's lease state from the server where a filesystem used to reside to the server where it now resides. When an NFSv4.1 client first contacts that destination server, it uses EXCHANGE_ID to detect trunking relationships. The lease that was copied there is returned to that client, but the destination server sets EXCHGID4_FLAG_CONFIRMED_R when replying to the client. This is because the lease was confirmed on the source server (before it was copied). Normally, when CONFIRMED_R is set, a client purges the lease and creates a new one. However, that throws away the entire benefit of Transparent State Migration. Therefore, the client must not purge that lease when it is possible that Transparent State Migration has occurred.

2017-07-13NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is completeTrond Myklebust2-0/+3
If the page cache is being flushed, then we want to ensure that we do start a commit once the pages are done being flushed. If we just wait until all I/O is done to that file, we can end up livelocking until the balance_dirty_pages() mechanism puts its foot down and forces I/O to stop. So instead we do more or less the same thing that O_DIRECT does, and set up a counter to tell us when the flush is done, Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com> Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@Netapp.com>

2017-07-13NFS: nfs_rename() - revalidate directories on -ERESTARTSYSBenjamin Coddington1-0/+1
An interrupted rename will leave the old dentry behind if the rename succeeds. Fix this by forcing a lookup the next time through ->d_revalidate. A previous attempt at solving this problem took the approach to complete the work of the rename asynchronously, however that approach was wrong since it would allow the d_move() to occur after the directory's i_mutex had been dropped by the original process.

2017-07-12writeback: rework wb_[dec|inc]_stat family of functionsNikolay Borisov1-22/+2
Currently the writeback statistics code uses a percpu counters to hold various statistics. Furthermore we have 2 families of functions - those which disable local irq and those which doesn't and whose names begin with double underscore. However, they both end up calling __add_wb_stats which in turn calls percpu_counter_add_batch which is already irq-safe. Exploiting this fact allows to eliminated the __wb_* functions since they don't add any further protection than we already have. Furthermore, refactor the wb_* function to call __add_wb_stat directly without the irq-disabling dance. This will likely result in better runtime of code which deals with modifying the stat counters. While at it also document why percpu_counter_add_batch is in fact preempt and irq-safe since at least 3 people got confused.

2017-07-12mm, migration: do not trigger OOM killer when migrating memoryMichal Hocko1-1/+1
Page migration (for memory hotplug, soft_offline_page or mbind) needs to allocate a new memory. This can trigger an oom killer if the target memory is depleated. Although quite unlikely, still possible, especially for the memory hotplug (offlining of memoery). Up to now we didn't really have reasonable means to back off. __GFP_NORETRY can fail just too easily and __GFP_THISNODE sticks to a single node and that is not suitable for all callers. But now that we have __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL we should use it. It is preferable to fail the migration than disrupt the system by killing some processes.

2017-07-12mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful semanticMichal Hocko2-14/+45
__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests. Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example) - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_ attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more aggressive reclaim - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when the request is a performance optimization and there is another fallback for a slow path. - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) - non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh context with an expensive slow path fallback. - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently). - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer is not invoked. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer won't be triggered. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed. This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders. Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL because they already had their semantic. No new users are added. __alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point. This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

2017-07-12random,stackprotect: introduce get_random_canary functionRik van Riel1-0/+21
Patch series "stackprotector: ascii armor the stack canary", v2. Zero out the first byte of the stack canary value on 64 bit systems, in order to mitigate unterminated C string overflows. The null byte both prevents C string functions from reading the canary, and from writing it if the canary value were guessed or obtained through some other means. Reducing the entropy by 8 bits is acceptable on 64-bit systems, which will still have 56 bits of entropy left, but not on 32 bit systems, so the "ascii armor" canary is only implemented on 64-bit systems. Inspired by the "ascii armor" code in execshield and Daniel Micay's linux-hardened tree. Also see https://github.com/thestinger/linux-hardened/ This patch (of 5): Introduce get_random_canary(), which provides a random unsigned long canary value with the first byte zeroed out on 64 bit architectures, in order to mitigate non-terminated C string overflows. The null byte both prevents C string functions from reading the canary, and from writing it if the canary value were guessed or obtained through some other means.

2017-07-12include/linux/string.h: add the option of fortified string.h functionsDaniel Micay1-0/+200
This adds support for compiling with a rough equivalent to the glibc _FORTIFY_SOURCE=1 feature, providing compile-time and runtime buffer overflow checks for string.h functions when the compiler determines the size of the source or destination buffer at compile-time. Unlike glibc, it covers buffer reads in addition to writes. GNU C __builtin_*_chk intrinsics are avoided because they would force a much more complex implementation. They aren't designed to detect read overflows and offer no real benefit when using an implementation based on inline checks. Inline checks don't add up to much code size and allow full use of the regular string intrinsics while avoiding the need for a bunch of _chk functions and per-arch assembly to avoid wrapper overhead. This detects various overflows at compile-time in various drivers and some non-x86 core kernel code. There will likely be issues caught in regular use at runtime too. Future improvements left out of initial implementation for simplicity, as it's all quite optional and can be done incrementally: * Some of the fortified string functions (strncpy, strcat), don't yet place a limit on reads from the source based on __builtin_object_size of the source buffer. * Extending coverage to more string functions like strlcat. * It should be possible to optionally use __builtin_object_size(x, 1) for some functions (C strings) to detect intra-object overflows (like glibc's _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2), but for now this takes the conservative approach to avoid likely compatibility issues. * The compile-time checks should be made available via a separate config option which can be enabled by default (or always enabled) once enough time has passed to get the issues it catches fixed. Kees said: "This is great to have. While it was out-of-tree code, it would have blocked at least CVE-2016-3858 from being exploitable (improper size argument to strlcpy()). I've sent a number of fixes for out-of-bounds-reads that this detected upstream already" [arnd@arndb.de: x86: fix fortified memcpy] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170627150047.660360-1-arnd@arndb.de [keescook@chromium.org: avoid panic() in favor of BUG()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170626235122.GA25261@beast [keescook@chromium.org: move from -mm, add ARCH_HAS_FORTIFY_SOURCE, tweak Kconfig help] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170526095404.20439-1-danielmicay@gmail.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1497903987-21002-8-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org Signed-off-by: Daniel Micay <danielmicay@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Acked-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

2017-07-12kernel/watchdog: split up config optionsNicholas Piggin1-9/+20
Split SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR from LOCKUP_DETECTOR, and split HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF from HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. LOCKUP_DETECTOR implies the general boot, sysctl, and programming interfaces for the lockup detectors. An architecture that wants to use a hard lockup detector must define HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF or HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. Alternatively an arch can define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, which provides the minimum arch_touch_nmi_watchdog, and it otherwise does its own thing and does not implement the LOCKUP_DETECTOR interfaces. sparc is unusual in that it has started to implement some of the interfaces, but not fully yet. It should probably be converted to a full HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

ipc has two management structures that exist for every id: - struct kern_ipc_perm, it contains e.g. the permissions. - struct ipc_rcu, it contains the rcu head for rcu handling and the refcount. The patch merges both structures. As a bonus, we may save one cacheline, because both structures are cacheline aligned. In addition, it reduces the number of casts, instead most codepaths can use container_of. To simplify code, the ipc_rcu_alloc initializes the allocation to 0.
