2018-01-22signal: Replace memset(info,...) with clear_siginfo for clarityEric W. Biederman
The function clear_siginfo is just a nice wrapper around memset so this results in no functional change. This change makes mistakes a little more difficult and it makes it clearer what is going on. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2018-01-22signal: Don't use structure initializers for struct siginfoEric W. Biederman
The siginfo structure has all manners of holes with the result that a structure initializer is not guaranteed to initialize all of the bits. As we have to copy the structure to userspace don't even try to use a structure initializer. Instead use clear_siginfo followed by initializing selected fields. This gives a guarantee that uninitialized kernel memory is not copied to userspace. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2018-01-22signal/arm64: Better isolate the COMPAT_TASK portion of ptrace_hbptriggeredEric W. Biederman
Instead of jumpping while !is_compat_task placee all of the code inside of an if (is_compat_task) block. This allows the int i variable to be properly limited to the compat block no matter how the rest of ptrace_hbptriggered changes. In a following change a non-variable declaration will preceed was made independent to ensure the code is easy to review. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2018-01-16ptrace: Use copy_siginfo in setsiginfo and getsiginfoEric W. Biederman
Now that copy_siginfo copies all of the fields this is safe, safer (as all of the bits are guaranteed to be copied), clearer, and less error prone than using a structure copy. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2018-01-15signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_to_user32Eric W. Biederman
Among the existing architecture specific versions of copy_siginfo_to_user32 there are several different implementation problems. Some architectures fail to handle all of the cases in in the siginfo union. Some architectures perform a blind copy of the siginfo union when the si_code is negative. A blind copy suggests the data is expected to be in 32bit siginfo format, which means that receiving such a signal via signalfd won't work, or that the data is in 64bit siginfo and the code is copying nonsense to userspace. Create a single instance of copy_siginfo_to_user32 that all of the architectures can share, and teach it to handle all of the cases in the siginfo union correctly, with the assumption that siginfo is stored internally to the kernel is 64bit siginfo format. A special case is made for x86 x32 format. This is needed as presence of both x32 and ia32 on x86_64 results in two different 32bit signal formats. By allowing this small special case there winds up being exactly one code base that needs to be maintained between all of the architectures. Vastly increasing the testing base and the chances of finding bugs. As the x86 copy of copy_siginfo_to_user32 the call of the x86 signal_compat_build_tests were moved into sigaction_compat_abi, so that they will keep running. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2018-01-15signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_from_user32Eric W. Biederman
The function copy_siginfo_from_user32 is used for two things, in ptrace since the dawn of siginfo for arbirarily modifying a signal that user space sees, and in sigqueueinfo to send a signal with arbirary siginfo data. Create a single copy of copy_siginfo_from_user32 that all architectures share, and teach it to handle all of the cases in the siginfo union. In the generic version of copy_siginfo_from_user32 ensure that all of the fields in siginfo are initialized so that the siginfo structure can be safely copied to userspace if necessary. When copying the embedded sigval union copy the si_int member. That ensures the 32bit values passes through the kernel unchanged. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2018-01-15signal/blackfin: Remove pointless UID16_SIGINFO_COMPAT_NEEDEDEric W. Biederman
Nothing tests this define so just remove it. I suspect the intention was to make the uid field in siginfo 16bit however I can't find any code that ever tested this defined, and even if it did it the layout has been this way for 8 years so changing it now would break the ABI with userspace.

2018-01-15signal/powerpc: Remove redefinition of NSIGTRAP on powerpcEric W. Biederman

SEGV_PKUERR is a signal specific si_code which happens to have the same numeric value as several others: BUS_MCEERR_AR, ILL_ILLTRP, FPE_FLTOVF, TRAP_HWBKPT, CLD_TRAPPED, POLL_ERR, SEGV_THREAD_ID, as such it is not safe to just test the si_code the signal number must also be tested to prevent a false positive in fill_sig_info_pkey. I found this error by inspection, and BUS_MCEERR_AR appears to be a real candidate for confusion. So pass in si_signo and fix it.

Setting si_code to 0 is the same a setting si_code to SI_USER which is definitely not correct. With si_code set to SI_USER si_pid and si_uid will be copied to userspace instead of si_addr. Which is very wrong. So fix this by using a sensible si_code (SEGV_MAPERR) for this failure.

2018-01-12signal: Ensure generic siginfos the kernel sends have all bits initializedEric W. Biederman
Call clear_siginfo to ensure stack allocated siginfos are fully initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions. This ensures that if there is the kind of confusion documented by TRAP_FIXME, FPE_FIXME, or BUS_FIXME the kernel won't send unitialized data to userspace when the kernel generates a signal with SI_USER but the copy to userspace assumes it is a different kind of signal, and different fields are initialized. This also prepares the way for turning copy_siginfo_to_user into a copy_to_user, by removing the need in many cases to perform a field by field copy simply to skip the uninitialized fields.

2018-01-12signal: Introduce clear_siginfoEric W. Biederman
Unfortunately struct siginfo has holes both in the common part of the structure, in the union members, and in the lack of padding of the union members. The result of those wholes is that the C standard does not guarantee those bits will be initialized. As struct siginfo is for communication between the kernel and userspace that is a problem. Add the helper function clear_siginfo that is guaranteed to clear all of the bits in struct siginfo so when the structure is copied there is no danger of copying old kernel data and causing a leak of information from kernel space to userspace.

2018-01-12signal: Reduce copy_siginfo to just a memcpyEric W. Biederman
The savings for copying just part of struct siginfo appears to be in the noise on modern machines. So remove this ``optimization'' and simplify the code. At the same time mark the second parameter as constant so there is no confusion as to which direction the copy will go. This ensures that a fully initialized siginfo that is sent ends up as a fully initialized siginfo on the signal queue. This full initialization ensures even confused code won't copy unitialized data to userspace, and it prepares for turning copy_siginfo_to_user into a simple copy_to_user. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Setting si_code to 0 results in a userspace seeing an si_code of 0. This is the same si_code as SI_USER. Posix and common sense requires that SI_USER not be a signal specific si_code. As such this use of 0 for the si_code is a pretty horribly broken ABI. Further use of si_code == 0 guaranteed that copy_siginfo_to_user saw a value of __SI_KILL and now sees a value of SIL_KILL with the result that uid and pid fields are copied and which might copying the si_addr field by accident but certainly not by design.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A rather large update after the kaisered maintainer finally found time to handle regression reports. - The larger part addresses a regression caused by the x86 vector management rework. The reservation based model does not work reliably for MSI interrupts, if they cannot be masked (yes, yet another hw engineering trainwreck). The reason is that the reservation mode assigns a dummy vector when the interrupt is allocated and switches to a real vector when the interrupt is requested. If the MSI entry cannot be masked then the initialization might raise an interrupt before the interrupt is requested, which ends up as spurious interrupt and causes device malfunction and worse. The fix is to exclude MSI interrupts which do not support masking from reservation mode and assign a real vector right away. - Extend the extra lockdep class setup for nested interrupts with a class for the recently added irq_desc::request_mutex so lockdep can differeniate and does not emit false positive warnings. - A ratelimit guard for the bad irq printout so in case a bad irq comes back immediately the system does not drown in dmesg spam" * 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: genirq/msi, x86/vector: Prevent reservation mode for non maskable MSI genirq/irqdomain: Rename early argument of irq_domain_activate_irq() x86/vector: Use IRQD_CAN_RESERVE flag genirq: Introduce IRQD_CAN_RESERVE flag genirq/msi: Handle reactivation only on success gpio: brcmstb: Make really use of the new lockdep class genirq: Guard handle_bad_irq log messages kernel/irq: Extend lockdep class for request mutex
