Christophe JAILLET c46d90cd7c drivers/rapidio/devices/rio_mport_cdev.c: fix error handling in 'rio_dma_transfer()'
In case of error, 'dma_map_sg()' returns 0, not a negative value.  There
is BUG_ON() in 'dma_map_sg_attrs()' which makes sure of that.

Dave Young de40ccefd1 kdump: print a message in case parse_crashkernel_mem resulted in zero bytes
parse_crashkernel_mem() silently returns if we get zero bytes in the
parsing function.  It is useful for debugging to add a message,
especially if the kernel cannot boot correctly.

Add a pr_info instead of pr_warn because it is expected behavior for
size = 0, eg.  crashkernel=2G-4G:128M, size will be 0 in case system
memory is less than 2G.

Oleg Nesterov 426915796c kernel/signal.c: remove the no longer needed SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE check in complete_signal()
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.

Oleg Nesterov 628c1bcba2 kernel/signal.c: protect the traced SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE tasks from SIGKILL
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.

Elena Reshetova d4f0284a59 fs, nilfs: convert nilfs_root.count from atomic_t to refcount_t
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.

Andreas Rohner 31ccb1f7ba nilfs2: fix race condition that causes file system corruption
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.

Joe Lawrence fb910c42cc sysctl: check for UINT_MAX before unsigned int min/max
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.

Joe Lawrence 7a8d181949 pipe: add proc_dopipe_max_size() to safely assign pipe_max_size
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.

Joe Lawrence d3f14c4858 pipe: avoid round_pipe_size() nr_pages overflow on 32-bit
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.

Joe Lawrence 98159d977f pipe: match pipe_max_size data type with procfs
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.

NeilBrown ecc0c469f2 autofs: don't fail mount for transient error
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.

Jason Baron 37b5e5212a epoll: remove ep_call_nested() from ep_eventpoll_poll()
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:

Jason Baron 57a173bdf5 epoll: avoid calling ep_call_nested() from ep_poll_safewake()
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.

Shakeel Butt 2ae928a944 epoll: account epitem and eppoll_entry to kmemcg
A userspace application can directly trigger the allocations from
eventpoll_epi and eventpoll_pwq slabs.  A buggy or malicious application
can consume a significant amount of system memory by triggering such
allocations.  Indeed we have seen in production where a buggy
application was leaking the epoll references and causing a burst of
eventpoll_epi and eventpoll_pwq slab allocations.  This patch opt-in the
charging of eventpoll_epi and eventpoll_pwq slabs.

There is a per-user limit (~4% of total memory if no highmem) on these
caches.  I think it is too generous particularly in the scenario where
jobs of multiple users are running on the system and the administrator
is reducing cost by overcomitting the memory.  This is unaccounted
kernel memory and will not be considered by the oom-killer.  I think by
accounting it to kmemcg, for systems with kmem accounting enabled, we
can provide better isolation between jobs of different users.

Peter Zijlstra f8ae107eef lib/int_sqrt: optimize initial value compute
The initial value (@m) compute is:

	m = 1UL << (BITS_PER_LONG - 2);
	while (m > x)
		m >>= 2;

Which is a linear search for the highest even bit smaller or equal to @x
We can implement this using a binary search using __fls() (or better when
its hardware implemented).

	m = 1UL << (__fls(x) & ~1UL);

Especially for small values of @x; which are the more common arguments
when doing a CDF on idle times; the linear search is near to worst case,

Peter Zijlstra 3f3295709e lib/int_sqrt: optimize small argument
The current int_sqrt() computation is sub-optimal for the case of small
@x.  Which is the interesting case when we're going to do cumulative
distribution functions on idle times, which we assume to be a random
variable, where the target residency of the deepest idle state gives an
upper bound on the variable (5e6ns on recent Intel chips).

In the case of small @x, the compute loop:

	while (m != 0) {
		b = y + m;
		y >>= 1;

		if (x >= b) {
			x -= b;
			y += m;
		}
		m >>= 2;
	}

can be reduced to:

	while (m > x)
		m >>= 2;

Because y==0, b==m and until x>=m y will remain 0.

And while this is computationally equivalent, it runs much faster
because there's less code, in particular less branches.

Masahiro Yamada f5bba9d11a include/linux/radix-tree.h: remove unneeded #include <linux/bug.h>
This include was added by commit 187f1882b5 ("BUG: headers with
BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.h") because BUG_ON() was used in this
header at that time.

Some time later, commit 6d75f366b9 ("lib: radix-tree: check accounting
of existing slot replacement users") removed the use of BUG_ON() from
this header.

Since then, there is no reason to include <linux/bug.h>.
