MAINTAINERS is out of date for leaking_addresses.pl. There is now a tree on
kernel.org for development of this script. We have a second maintainer now,
thanks Tycho. Development of this scripts was started on kernel-hardening
mailing list so let's keep it there.
Update maintainer details; Add mailing list, kernel.org hosted tree, and second
maintainer.

Sometimes files may be created by using output from printk. As the scan
traverses the directory tree we should parse each path name and check if
it is leaking an address.
Add check for leaking address on each path name.

Currently sub routine may_leak_address() is checking regex against Perl
special variable $_ which is _fortunately_ being set correctly in a loop
before this sub routine is called. We already have declared a variable
to hold this value '$line' we should use it.
Use $line in regex match instead of implicit $_

The pointers listed in /proc/1/syscall are user pointers, and negative
syscall args will show up like kernel addresses.
For example
/proc/31808/syscall: 0 0x3 0x55b107a38180 0x2000 0xffffffffffffffb0 \
0x55b107a302d0 0x55b107a38180 0x7fffa313b8e8 0x7ff098560d11

When the system is idle it is likely that most files under /proc/PID
will be identical for various processes. Scanning _all_ the PIDs under
/proc is unnecessary and implies that we are thoroughly scanning /proc.
This is _not_ the case because there may be ways userspace can trigger
creation of /proc files that leak addresses but were not present during
a scan. For these two reasons we should exclude all PID directories
under /proc except '1/'
Exclude all /proc/PID except /proc/1.

Currently we are repeatedly calling `uname -m`. This is causing the
script to take a long time to run (more than 10 seconds to parse
/proc/kallsyms). We can use Perl state variables to cache the result of
the first call to `uname -m`. With this change in place the script
scans the whole kernel in under a minute.

Currently script has multiple configuration arrays. This is confusing,
evident by the fact that a bunch of the entries are in the wrong place.
We can simplify the code by just having a single array for absolute
paths to skip and a single array for file names to skip wherever they
appear in the scanned directory tree. There are also currently multiple
subroutines to handle the different arrays, we can reduce these to a
single subroutine also.
Simplify the path skipping code.

Currently script parses binary files. Since we are scanning for
readable kernel addresses there is no need to parse binary files. We
can use Perl to check if file is binary and skip parsing it if so.
Do not parse binary files.

Currently script only supports x86_64 and ppc64. It would be nice to be
able to scan 32-bit machines also. We can add support for 32-bit
architectures by modifying how we check for false positives, taking
advantage of the page offset used by the kernel, and using the correct
regular expression.
Support for 32-bit machines is enabled by the observation that the kernel
addresses on 32-bit machines are larger [in value] than the page offset.
We can use this to filter false positives when scanning the kernel for
leaking addresses.
Programmatic determination of the running architecture is not
immediately obvious (current 32-bit machines return various strings from
`uname -m`). We therefore provide a flag to enable scanning of 32-bit
kernels. Also we can check the kernel config file for the offset and if
not found default to 0xc0000000. A command line option to parse in the
page offset is also provided. We do automatically detect architecture
if running on ix86.
Add support for 32-bit kernels. Add a command line option for page
offset.

Currently script uses Perl to get the machine architecture. This can be
erroneous since Perl uses the architecture of the machine that Perl was
compiled on not the architecture of the running machine. We should use
the systems `uname` command instead.

Currently script only supports 4 page table levels because of the way
the kernel address regular expression is crafted. We can do better than
this. Using previously added support for kernel configuration options we
can get the number of page table levels defined by
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS. Using this value a correct regular expression can
be crafted. This only supports 5 page tables on x86_64.

Currently script checks only first and last address in the vsyscall

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
"A bigger than usual pull request for SELinux, 13 patches (lucky!)
along with a scary looking diffstat.
Although if you look a bit closer, excluding the usual minor
tweaks/fixes, there are really only two significant changes in this
pull request: the addition of proper SELinux access controls for SCTP
and the encapsulation of a lot of internal SELinux state.
The SCTP changes are the result of a multi-month effort (maybe even a
year or longer?) between the SELinux folks and the SCTP folks to add
proper SELinux controls. A special thanks go to Richard for seeing
this through and keeping the effort moving forward.
The state encapsulation work is a bit of janitorial work that came out
of some early work on SELinux namespacing. The question of namespacing
is still an open one, but I believe there is some real value in the
encapsulation work so we've split that out and are now sending that up
to you"

- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to _not_ override the fmode_t used to

device was originally open with during DM table load is a liability.

linear and DM striped targets to support them.
- A DM core 4.16 stable fix to allow abnormal IO (e.g. discard, write
same, write zeroes) for targets that make use of the non-splitting IO
variant (as is done for multipath or thinp when layered directly on
NVMe).
- Allow DM targets to return a payload in response to a DM message that
they are sent. This is useful for DM targets that would like to
provide statistics data in response to DM messages.
- Update DM bufio to support non-power-of-2 block sizes. Numerous other
related changes prepare the DM bufio code for this support.
- Fix DM crypt to use a bounded amount of memory across the entire
system. This is to avoid OOM that can otherwise occur in response to
certain pathological IO workloads (e.g. discarding a large DM crypt
device).
- Add a 'check_at_most_once' feature to the DM verity target to allow
verity to be used on mobile devices that have very limited resources.
- Fix the DM integrity target to fail early if a keyed algorithm (e.g.
HMAC) is to be used but the key isn't set.
- Add non-power-of-2 support to the DM unstripe target.

Maintain a catalogue of allocated cookies so that cookie collisions can be
handled properly. For the moment, this just involves printing a warning
and returning a NULL cookie to the caller of fscache_acquire_cookie(), but
in future it might make sense to wait for the old cookie to finish being
cleaned up.
This requires the cookie key to be stored attached to the cookie so that we
still have the key available if the netfs relinquishes the cookie. This is
done by an earlier patch.
The catalogue also renders redundant fscache_netfs_list (used for checking
for duplicates), so that can be removed.

With trace events set before and after the initcall function calls, instead
of having a separate routine for printing out the initcalls when
initcall_debug is specified on the kernel command line, have the code
register a callback to the tracepoints where the initcall trace events are.
This removes the need for having a separate function to do the initcalls as
the tracepoint callbacks can handle the printk. It also includes other
initcalls that are not called by the do_one_initcall() which includes
console and security initcalls.

Trace events have been added around the initcall functions defined in

Being able to trace the start and stop of initcalls is useful to see where
the timings are an issue. There is already an "initcall_debug" parameter,
but that can cause a large overhead itself, as the printing of the
information may take longer than the initcall functions.
Adding in a start and finish trace event around the initcall functions, as
well as a trace event that records the level of the initcalls, one can get a
much finer measurement of the times and interactions of the initcalls
themselves, as trace events are much lighter than printk()s.

the proper rcu annotation.
To do this, we must also take the event_mutex first. Normally, this isn't
needed because this test function can not race with other use cases that
touch the event filters (it is disabled if any events are enabled).

ftrace_function_set_filter() referenences filter->prog without annotation
and sparse complains about it. It needs a rcu_dereference_protected()
wrapper.

In commit 932066a15335 ("tracing: Default to using trace_global_clock if
sched_clock is unstable"), the logic for deciding to override the
default clock if unstable was reversed from the earlier posting. I was
trying to reduce the width of the message by using an early return
rather than a if-block, but reverted back to using the if-block and
accidentally left the predicate inverted.

Function tracing can trace in NMIs and such. If the TSC is determined
to be unstable, the tracing clock will switch to the global clock on
boot up, unless "trace_clock" is specified on the kernel command line.
The global clock disables interrupts to access sched_clock_cpu(), and in
doing so can be done within lockdep internals (because of function
tracing and NMIs). This can trigger false lockdep splats.
The trace_clock_global() is special, best not to trace the irq logic
within it.

As si_mem_available() can say there is enough memory even though the memory
available is not useable by the ring buffer, it is best to not kill innocent
applications because the ring buffer is taking up all the memory while it is
trying to allocate a great deal of memory.
If the allocator is user space (because kernel threads can also increase the
size of the kernel ring buffer on boot up), then after si_mem_available()
says there is enough memory, set the OOM killer to kill the current task if
an OOM triggers during the allocation.
