One of the most remarkable improvements in this cycle is, Kbuild is
now able to cache the result of shell commands. Some variables are
expensive to compute, for example, $(call cc-option,...) invokes the
compiler. It is not efficient to redo this computation every time,
even when we are not actually building anything. Kbuild creates a
hidden file ".cache.mk" that contains invoked shell commands and
their results. The speed-up should be noticeable.
Summary:
- Fix arch build issues (hexagon, sh)
- Clean up various Makefiles and scripts
- Fix wrong usage of {CFLAGS,LDFLAGS}_MODULE in arch Makefiles
- Cache variables that are expensive to compute
- Improve cc-ldopton and ld-option for Clang
- Optimize output directory creation

Clean up the EXPERT menu (yet again). Move FHANDLE and CHECKPOINT_RESTORE into the primary EXPERT menu since they already depend on EXPERT. Move BPF_SYSCALL and USERFAULTFD out of the EXPERT Kconfig symbols menu list since they do not depend on EXPERT and were breaking the continuity of that menu list. Move all of the KALLSYMS Kconfig symbols to the end of the EXPERT menu. This separates the kernel services from the build options. This patch depends on [PATCH] pci: move PCI_QUIRKS to the PCI bus menu (https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/907).

For a custom microbenchmark on a 3.30GHz Xeon SandyBridge, which calls
IPC_STAT over and over, it was calculated that, on avg the cost of
ipc_get_maxid() for increasing amounts of keys was:
10 keys: ~900 cycles
100 keys: ~15000 cycles
1000 keys: ~150000 cycles
10000 keys: ~2100000 cycles
This is unsurprising as maxid is currently O(n).
By having the max_id available in O(1) we save all those cycles for each
semctl(_STAT) command, the idr_find can be expensive -- which some real
(customer) workloads actually poll on.
Note that this used to be the case, until commit

Enables kcov to collect comparison operands from instrumented code. This is done by using Clang's -fsanitize=trace-cmp instrumentation (currently not available for GCC). The comparison operands help a lot in fuzz testing. E.g. they are used in Syzkaller to cover the interiors of conditional statements with way less attempts and thus make previously unreachable code reachable. To allow separate collection of coverage and comparison operands two different work modes are implemented. Mode selection is now done via a KCOV_ENABLE ioctl call with corresponding argument value.

This is the gist of a patch which we've been forward-porting in our kernels for a long time now and it probably would make a good sense to have such TAINT_AUX flag upstream which can be used by each distro etc, how they see fit. This way, we won't need to forward-port a distro-only version indefinitely. Add an auxiliary taint flag to be used by distros and others. This obviates the need to forward-port whatever internal solutions people have in favor of a single flag which they can map arbitrarily to a definition of their pleasing. The "X" mnemonic could also mean eXternal, which would be taint from a distro or something else but not the upstream kernel. We will use it to mark modules for which we don't provide support. I.e., a really eXternal module.

Patch series "Replacing PID bitmap implementation with IDR API", v4.
This series replaces kernel bitmap implementation of PID allocation with
IDR API. These patches are written to simplify the kernel by replacing
custom code with calls to generic code.
The following are the stats for pid and pid_namespace object files
before and after the replacement. There is a noteworthy change between
the IDR and bitmap implementation.

This patch (of 2):
Replace the current bitmap implementation for Process ID allocation.
Functions that are no longer required, for example, free_pidmap(),
alloc_pidmap(), etc. are removed. The rest of the functions are
modified to use the IDR API. The change was made to make the PID
allocation less complex by replacing custom code with calls to generic

complete_signal() checks SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE before it starts to destroy
the thread group, today this is wrong in many ways.
If nothing else, fatal_signal_pending() should always imply that the
whole thread group (except ->group_exit_task if it is not NULL) is
killed, this check breaks the rule.
After the previous changes we can rely on sig_task_ignored();
sig_fatal(sig) && SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can only be true if we actually want
to kill this task and sig == SIGKILL OR it is traced and debugger can
intercept the signal.
This should hopefully fix the problem reported by Dmitry. This
test-case
static int init(void *arg)
{
for (;;)
pause();
}
int main(void)
{
char stack[16 * 1024];
for (;;) {
int pid = clone(init, stack + sizeof(stack)/2,
CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, NULL);
assert(pid > 0);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0, 0) == 0);
assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, WSTOPPED) == pid);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0);
assert(syscall(__NR_tkill, pid, SIGKILL) == 0);
assert(pid == wait(NULL));
}
}
triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(!(task->jobctl & JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING)) in
task_participate_group_stop(). do_signal_stop()->signal_group_exit()
checks SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and return false, but task_set_jobctl_pending()
checks fatal_signal_pending() and does not set JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING.
And his should fix the minor security problem reported by Kyle,
SECCOMP_RET_TRACE can miss fatal_signal_pending() the same way if the
task is the root of a pid namespace.

The comment in sig_ignored() says "Tracers may want to know about even ignored signals" but SIGKILL can not be reported to debugger and it is just wrong to return 0 in this case: SIGKILL should only kill the SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE task if it comes from the parent ns. Change sig_ignored() to ignore ->ptrace if sig == SIGKILL and rely on sig_task_ignored(). SISGTOP coming from within the namespace is not really right too but at least debugger can intercept it, and we can't drop it here because this will break "gdb -p 1": ptrace_attach() won't work. Perhaps we will add another ->ptrace check later, we will see.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable nilfs_root.count is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.

There is a race condition between nilfs_dirty_inode() and nilfs_set_file_dirty(). When a file is opened, nilfs_dirty_inode() is called to update the access timestamp in the inode. It calls __nilfs_mark_inode_dirty() in a separate transaction. __nilfs_mark_inode_dirty() caches the ifile buffer_head in the i_bh field of the inode info structure and marks it as dirty. After some data was written to the file in another transaction, the function nilfs_set_file_dirty() is called, which adds the inode to the ns_dirty_files list. Then the segment construction calls nilfs_segctor_collect_dirty_files(), which goes through the ns_dirty_files list and checks the i_bh field. If there is a cached buffer_head in i_bh it is not marked as dirty again. Since nilfs_dirty_inode() and nilfs_set_file_dirty() use separate transactions, it is possible that a segment construction that writes out the ifile occurs in-between the two. If this happens the inode is not on the ns_dirty_files list, but its ifile block is still marked as dirty and written out. In the next segment construction, the data for the file is written out and nilfs_bmap_propagate() updates the b-tree. Eventually the bmap root is written into the i_bh block, which is not dirty, because it was written out in another segment construction. As a result the bmap update can be lost, which leads to file system corruption. Either the virtual block address points to an unallocated DAT block, or the DAT entry will be reused for something different. The error can remain undetected for a long time. A typical error message would be one of the "bad btree" errors or a warning that a DAT entry could not be found. This bug can be reproduced reliably by a simple benchmark that creates and overwrites millions of 4k files.

Mikulas noticed in the existing do_proc_douintvec_minmax_conv() and do_proc_dopipe_max_size_conv() introduced in this patchset, that they inconsistently handle overflow and min/max range inputs: For example: 0 ... param->min - 1 ---> ERANGE param->min ... param->max ---> the value is accepted param->max + 1 ... 0x100000000L + param->min - 1 ---> ERANGE 0x100000000L + param->min ... 0x100000000L + param->max ---> EINVAL 0x100000000L + param->max + 1, 0x200000000L + param->min - 1 ---> ERANGE 0x200000000L + param->min ... 0x200000000L + param->max ---> EINVAL 0x200000000L + param->max + 1, 0x300000000L + param->min - 1 ---> ERANGE In do_proc_do*() routines which store values into unsigned int variables (4 bytes wide for 64-bit builds), first validate that the input unsigned long value (8 bytes wide for 64-bit builds) will fit inside the smaller unsigned int variable. Then check that the unsigned int value falls inside the specified parameter min, max range. Otherwise the unsigned long -> unsigned int conversion drops leading bits from the input value, leading to the inconsistent pattern Mikulas documented above.

pipe_max_size is assigned directly via procfs sysctl:
static struct ctl_table fs_table[] = {
...
{
.procname = "pipe-max-size",
.data = &pipe_max_size,
.maxlen = sizeof(int),
.mode = 0644,
.proc_handler = &pipe_proc_fn,
.extra1 = &pipe_min_size,
},
...
int pipe_proc_fn(struct ctl_table *table, int write, void __user *buf,
size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos)
{
...
ret = proc_dointvec_minmax(table, write, buf, lenp, ppos)
...
and then later rounded in-place a few statements later:
...
pipe_max_size = round_pipe_size(pipe_max_size);
...
This leaves a window of time between initial assignment and rounding
that may be visible to other threads. (For example, one thread sets a
non-rounded value to pipe_max_size while another reads its value.)
Similar reads of pipe_max_size are potentially racy:
pipe.c :: alloc_pipe_info()
pipe.c :: pipe_set_size()
Add a new proc_dopipe_max_size() that consolidates reading the new value
from the user buffer, verifying bounds, and calling round_pipe_size()
with a single assignment to pipe_max_size.

round_pipe_size() contains a right-bit-shift expression which may
overflow, which would cause undefined results in a subsequent
roundup_pow_of_two() call.
static inline unsigned int round_pipe_size(unsigned int size)
{
unsigned long nr_pages;
nr_pages = (size + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
return roundup_pow_of_two(nr_pages) << PAGE_SHIFT;
}
PAGE_SIZE is defined as (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT), so:
- 4 bytes wide on 32-bit (0 to 0xffffffff)
- 8 bytes wide on 64-bit (0 to 0xffffffffffffffff)
That means that 32-bit round_pipe_size(), nr_pages may overflow to 0:
size=0x00000000 nr_pages=0x0
size=0x00000001 nr_pages=0x1
size=0xfffff000 nr_pages=0xfffff
size=0xfffff001 nr_pages=0x0 << !
size=0xffffffff nr_pages=0x0 << !
This is bad because roundup_pow_of_two(n) is undefined when n == 0!
64-bit is not a problem as the unsigned int size is 4 bytes wide
(similar to 32-bit) and the larger, 8 byte wide unsigned long, is
sufficient to handle the largest value of the bit shift expression:
size=0xffffffff nr_pages=100000
Modify round_pipe_size() to return 0 if n == 0 and updates its callers to
handle accordingly.

Patch series "A few round_pipe_size() and pipe-max-size fixups", v3.
While backporting Michael's "pipe: fix limit handling" patchset to a
distro-kernel, Mikulas noticed that current upstream pipe limit handling
contains a few problems:
1 - procfs signed wrap: echo'ing a large number into
/proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size and then cat'ing it back out shows a
negative value.
2 - round_pipe_size() nr_pages overflow on 32bit: this would
subsequently try roundup_pow_of_two(0), which is undefined.
3 - visible non-rounded pipe-max-size value: there is no mutual
exclusion or protection between the time pipe_max_size is assigned
a raw value from proc_dointvec_minmax() and when it is rounded.
4 - unsigned long -> unsigned int conversion makes for potential odd
return errors from do_proc_douintvec_minmax_conv() and
do_proc_dopipe_max_size_conv().
This version underwent the same testing as v1:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=150643571406022&w=2
This patch (of 4):
pipe_max_size is defined as an unsigned int:
unsigned int pipe_max_size = 1048576;
but its procfs/sysctl representation is an integer:
static struct ctl_table fs_table[] = {
...
{
.procname = "pipe-max-size",
.data = &pipe_max_size,
.maxlen = sizeof(int),
.mode = 0644,
.proc_handler = &pipe_proc_fn,
.extra1 = &pipe_min_size,
},
...
that is signed:
int pipe_proc_fn(struct ctl_table *table, int write, void __user *buf,
size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos)
{
...
ret = proc_dointvec_minmax(table, write, buf, lenp, ppos)
This leads to signed results via procfs for large values of pipe_max_size:
% echo 2147483647 >/proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size
% cat /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size
-2147483648
Use unsigned operations on this variable to avoid such negative values.

Currently if the autofs kernel module gets an error when writing to the pipe which links to the daemon, then it marks the whole moutpoint as catatonic, and it will stop working. It is possible that the error is transient. This can happen if the daemon is slow and more than 16 requests queue up. If a subsequent process tries to queue a request, and is then signalled, the write to the pipe will return -ERESTARTSYS and autofs will take that as total failure. So change the code to assess -ERESTARTSYS and -ENOMEM as transient failures which only abort the current request, not the whole mountpoint. It isn't a crash or a data corruption, but having autofs mountpoints suddenly stop working is rather inconvenient. Ian said: : And given the problems with a half dozen (or so) user space applications : consuming large amounts of CPU under heavy mount and umount activity this : could happen more easily than we expect.

init/version.c has nothing to do with modules, so remove the <linux/modude.h>. Instead, include <linux/export.h> for EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. This cuts off a lot of unnecessary header parsing.

The use of ep_call_nested() in ep_eventpoll_poll(), which is the .poll routine for an epoll fd, is used to prevent excessively deep epoll nesting, and to prevent circular paths. However, we are already preventing these conditions during EPOLL_CTL_ADD. In terms of too deep epoll chains, we do in fact allow deep nesting of the epoll fds themselves (deeper than EP_MAX_NESTS), however we don't allow more than EP_MAX_NESTS when an epoll file descriptor is actually connected to a wakeup source. Thus, we do not require the use of ep_call_nested(), since ep_eventpoll_poll(), which is called via ep_scan_ready_list() only continues nesting if there are events available. Since ep_call_nested() is implemented using a global lock, applications that make use of nested epoll can see large performance improvements with this change. Davidlohr said: : Improvements are quite obscene actually, such as for the following : epoll_wait() benchmark with 2 level nesting on a 80 core IvyBridge: : : ncpus vanilla dirty delta : 1 2447092 3028315 +23.75% : 4 231265 2986954 +1191.57% : 8 121631 2898796 +2283.27% : 16 59749 2902056 +4757.07% : 32 26837 2326314 +8568.30% : 64 12926 1341281 +10276.61% : : (http://linux-scalability.org/epoll/epoll-test.c) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1509430214-5599-1-git-send-email-jbaron@akamai.com Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@akamai.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Salman Qazi <sqazi@google.com> Cc: Hou Tao <houtao1@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

ep_poll_safewake() is used to wakeup potentially nested epoll file descriptors. The function uses ep_call_nested() to prevent entering the same wake up queue more than once, and to prevent excessively deep wakeup paths (deeper than EP_MAX_NESTS). However, this is not necessary since we are already preventing these conditions during EPOLL_CTL_ADD. This saves extra function calls, and avoids taking a global lock during the ep_call_nested() calls. I have, however, left ep_call_nested() for the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC case, since ep_call_nested() keeps track of the nesting level, and this is required by the call to spin_lock_irqsave_nested(). It would be nice to remove the ep_call_nested() calls for the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC case as well, however its not clear how to simply pass the nesting level through multiple wake_up() levels without more surgery. In any case, I don't think CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is generally used for production. This patch, also apparently fixes a workload at Google that Salman Qazi reported by completely removing the poll_safewake_ncalls->lock from wakeup paths.
