Nicholas Piggin f79643787e powerpc/64s: flush L1D on kernel entry
IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache
before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It
is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible
memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of
hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where
protected data could be leaked.

However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces
the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that
the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass
"kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony
Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself,
but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with
side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an
attack.

This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege
boundaries of concern. This patch flushes the L1 cache on kernel entry.

This is part of the fix for CVE-2020-4788.

2020-10-20 09:24:01 -07:00
Juergen Gross e99502f762 xen/events: defer eoi in case of excessive number of events
In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might
happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in
dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result.

In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some
time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a
worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in.

The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable
via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the
maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen
after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an
only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests
performed an event storm).

How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another
parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the
value was chosen after testing with different delay values).

This is part of XSA-332.

Albert van der Linde 2c739ced58 lib, include/linux: add usercopy failure capability
Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3.

The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages
of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection.

syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use
this particular feature also.

The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions.
The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability
(copy_from_user, ...).  The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures
to x86.

This patch (of 3):

Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance
in usages of user memory access functions.

Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy
functions.  The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these
functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not.

 version parsing or trial and error).
 
 Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge.
 
 Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces.
 
 Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK
 packets of TCPv6.

 on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising
 addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options.
 
 Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments.
 
 Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC.
 
 Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols -

 Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit
 kernel problem.
 
 Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs.
 
 Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop
 objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications
 and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting
 to a blocking notifier.
 
 Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs,
 opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific
 TCP option use.
 
 Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life
 of TCP CC implemented in BPF.
 
 Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them
 early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the
 user space infra we have.
 
 Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing.
 
 Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'.
 
 Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls.
 
 Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps.
 
 Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as
 well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use
 is for pretty printing structures).
 
 Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf
 syscall.
 
 Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying
 overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update;
 report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware
 activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact
 reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not).
 
 Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard
 counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space.
 
 Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update
 in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw,
 mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth).
 
 In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms.
 Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and
 support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface.
 
 Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver.
 
 Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to

 dpaa-eth.
 
 Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3)
 offload.
 
 Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have
 this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS.
 
 Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as

 Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver,
 and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx.
 
 Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads
 on recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share
 a descriptor entry.
 
 Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the crypto
 subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy directory.
 
 Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed
 subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free.
 
 Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their
 code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this
 conversion is not yet complete).

The command-line parameters "dyndbg" and "async_probe" are not
parameters for kernel/module.c but instead they are for the
module that is being loaded. Try to make that distinction in the
help text.

OTOH, "module.sig_enforce" is handled as a parameter of kernel/module.c
so "module." is correct for it.

Arvind Sankar 0a4bb5e550 x86/fpu: Allow multiple bits in clearcpuid= parameter
Commit

  0c2a3913d6 ("x86/fpu: Parse clearcpuid= as early XSAVE argument")

changed clearcpuid parsing from __setup() to cmdline_find_option().
While the __setup() function would have been called for each clearcpuid=
parameter on the command line, cmdline_find_option() will only return
the last one, so the change effectively made it impossible to disable
more than one bit.

Allow a comma-separated list of bit numbers as the argument for
clearcpuid to allow multiple bits to be disabled again. Log the bits
being disabled for informational purposes.

Also fix the check on the return value of cmdline_find_option(). It
returns -1 when the option is not found, so testing as a boolean is
incorrect.

Barry Song b7176c261c dma-contiguous: provide the ability to reserve per-numa CMA
Right now, drivers like ARM SMMU are using dma_alloc_coherent() to get
coherent DMA buffers to save their command queues and page tables. As
there is only one default CMA in the whole system, SMMUs on nodes other
than node0 will get remote memory. This leads to significant latency.

This patch provides per-numa CMA so that drivers like SMMU can get local
memory. Tests show localizing CMA can decrease dma_unmap latency much.
For instance, before this patch, SMMU on node2  has to wait for more than
560ns for the completion of CMD_SYNC in an empty command queue; with this
patch, it needs 240ns only.

A positive side effect of this patch would be improving performance even
further for those users who are worried about performance more than DMA
security and use iommu.passthrough=1 to skip IOMMU. With local CMA, all
drivers can get local coherent DMA buffers.

Also, this patch changes the default CONFIG_CMA_AREAS to 19 in NUMA. As
1+CONFIG_CMA_AREAS should be quite enough for most servers on the market
even they enable both hugetlb_cma and pernuma_cma.
2 numa nodes: 2(hugetlb) + 2(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 5
4 numa nodes: 4(hugetlb) + 4(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 9
8 numa nodes: 8(hugetlb) + 8(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 17

Mahesh Bandewar 316cdaa115 net: add option to not create fall-back tunnels in root-ns as well
The sysctl that was added  earlier by commit 79134e6ce2 ("net: do
not create fallback tunnels for non-default namespaces") to create
fall-back only in root-ns. This patch enhances that behavior to provide
option not to create fallback tunnels in root-ns as well. Since modules
that create fallback tunnels could be built-in and setting the sysctl
value after booting is pointless, so added a kernel cmdline options to
change this default. The default setting is preseved for backward
compatibility. The kernel command line option of fb_tunnels=initns will
set the sysctl value to 1 and will create fallback tunnels only in initns
while kernel cmdline fb_tunnels=none will set the sysctl value to 2 and
fallback tunnels are skipped in every netns.

Paul E. McKenney d685514260 rcutorture: Allow pointer leaks to test diagnostic code
This commit adds an rcutorture.leakpointer module parameter that
intentionally leaks an RCU-protected pointer out of the RCU read-side
critical section and checks to see if the corresponding grace period
has elapsed, emitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() if so.  This module parameter can
be used to test facilities like CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD that end
grace periods quickly.

While in the area, also document rcutorture.irqreader, which was
previously left out.

Paul E. McKenney 3d29aaf1ef rcu: Provide optional RCU-reader exit delay for strict GPs
The goal of this series is to increase the probability of tools like
KASAN detecting that an RCU-protected pointer was used outside of its
RCU read-side critical section.  Thus far, the approach has been to make
grace periods and callback processing happen faster.  Another approach
is to delay the pointer leaker.  This commit therefore allows a delay
to be applied to exit from RCU read-side critical sections.

This slowdown is specified by a new rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay kernel boot
parameter that specifies this delay in microseconds, defaulting to zero.

This commit further avoids conflation of rcuperf with the kernel's perf
feature by renaming kernel/rcu/rcuperf.c to kernel/rcu/rcuscale.c, and
also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside this file.
This has the side effect of changing the names of the kernel boot
parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh are also
updated.  The rcutorture --torture type was also updated from rcuperf
to rcuscale.

Paul E. McKenney 160c7ba346 lib: Add backtrace_idle parameter to force backtrace of idle CPUs
Currently, the nmi_cpu_backtrace() declines to produce backtraces for
idle CPUs.  This is a good choice in the common case in which problems are
caused only by non-idle CPUs.  However, there are occasionally situations
in which idle CPUs are helping to cause problems.  This commit therefore
adds an nmi_backtrace.backtrace_idle kernel boot parameter that causes
nmi_cpu_backtrace() to dump stacks even of idle CPUs.

Vlastimil Babka e17f1dfba3 mm, slub: extend slub_debug syntax for multiple blocks
Patch series "slub_debug fixes and improvements".

The slub_debug kernel boot parameter can either apply a single set of
options to all caches or a list of caches.  There is a use case where
debugging is applied for all caches and then disabled at runtime for
specific caches, for performance and memory consumption reasons [1].  As
runtime changes are dangerous, extend the boot parameter syntax so that
multiple blocks of either global or slab-specific options can be
specified, with blocks delimited by ';'.  This will also support the use
case of [1] without runtime changes.

For details see the updated Documentation/vm/slub.rst

Linus Torvalds 25d8d4eeca powerpc updates for 5.9
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.
 
  - Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on Power9
    or later.
 
  - Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be unsupported on
    Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way to implement the
    functionality it requests. This risks breaking userspace, though we believe
    it is unused in practice.
 
  - A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion checking.
    We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other architectures.
 
  - Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update code, which
    tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised systems, but was prone
    to crashes and other problems.
 
  - Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.
 
  - A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link stack
    (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.
 
  - Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as usual.

Linus Torvalds dd27111e32 Driver core changes for 5.9-rc1
Here is the "big" set of changes to the driver core, and some drivers
 using the changes, for 5.9-rc1.
 
 "Biggest" thing in here is the device link exposure in sysfs, to help
 to tame the madness that is SoC device tree representations and driver
 interactions with it.
 
 Other stuff in here that is interesting is:
 	- device probe log helper so that drivers can report problems in
 	  a unified way easier.
 	- devres functions added
 	- DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_* macro added to make it harder to write
 	  incorrect sysfs file permissions
 	- documentation cleanups
 	- ability for debugfs to be present in the kernel, yet not
 	  exposed to userspace.  Needed for systems that want it
 	  enabled, but do not trust users, so they can still use some
 	  kernel functions that were otherwise disabled.
 	- other minor fixes and cleanups
 
 The patches outside of drivers/base/ all have acks from the respective
 subsystem maintainers to go through this tree instead of theirs.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

Linus Torvalds 4da9f33026 Support for FSGSBASE. Almost 5 years after the first RFC to support it,
this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and actually
 works.
 
 This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel
 dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out there
 ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels back which
 opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole.
 
 The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the context
 switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without kernel
 interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the exception
 entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they cannot longer rely
 on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as enforced via prctl() on
 non FSGSBASE enabled systemn). All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and
 exceptions) can still just utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry
 comes from user space. Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no
 benefit as SWAPGS is only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and
 retrieving the kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real
 benefit of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes.
 
 The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field
 testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver.

Pull x86 fsgsbase from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Support for FSGSBASE. Almost 5 years after the first RFC to support
  it, this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and
  actually works.

  This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel
  dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out
  there ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels
  back which opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole.

  The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the
  context switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without
  kernel interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the
  exception entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they
  can no longer rely on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as
  enforced via prctl() on non FSGSBASE enabled systemn).

  All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and exceptions) can still just
  utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry comes from user space.
  Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no benefit as SWAPGS is
  only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and retrieving the
  kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real benefit
  of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes.

  The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field
  testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver"

Aneesh Kumar K.V bf6b7661f4 powerpc/book3s64/radix: Add kernel command line option to disable radix GTSE
This adds a kernel command line option that can be used to disable GTSE support.
Disabling GTSE implies kernel will make hcalls to invalidate TLB entries.

This was done so that we can do VM migration between configs that enable/disable
GTSE support via hypervisor. To migrate a VM from a system that supports
GTSE to a system that doesn't, we can boot the guest with
radix_hcall_invalidate=on, thereby forcing the guest to use hcalls for TLB
invalidates.

The check for hcall availability is done in pSeries_setup_arch so that
the panic message appears on the console. This should only happen on
a hypervisor that doesn't force the guest to hash translation even
though it can't handle the radix GTSE=0 request via CAS. With
radix_hcall_invalidate=on if the hypervisor doesn't support hcall_rpt_invalidate
hcall it should force the LPAR to hash translation.

Peter Enderborg a24c6f7bc9 debugfs: Add access restriction option
Since debugfs include sensitive information it need to be treated
carefully. But it also has many very useful debug functions for userspace.
With this option we can have same configuration for system with
need of debugfs and a way to turn it off. This gives a extra protection
for exposure on systems where user-space services with system
access are attacked.

It is controlled by a configurable default value that can be override
with a kernel command line parameter. (debugfs=)

It can be on or off, but also internally on but not seen from user-space.
This no-mount mode do not register a debugfs as filesystem, but client can
register their parts in the internal structures. This data can be readed
with a debugger or saved with a crashkernel. When it is off clients
get EPERM error when accessing the functions for registering their
components.

Zhenzhong Duan 05eee619ed x86/kvm: Add "nopvspin" parameter to disable PV spinlocks
There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal
behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" on XEN platform and
"hv_nopvspin" on HYPER_V).

That feature is missed on KVM, add a new parameter "nopvspin" to disable
PV spinlocks for KVM guest.

The new 'nopvspin' parameter will also replace Xen and Hyper-V specific
parameters in future patches.

Define variable nopvsin as global because it will be used in future
patches as above.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:

        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
