2019-07-11Merge tag 'clone3-v5.3' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull clone3 system call from Christian Brauner: "This adds the clone3 syscall which is an extensible successor to clone after we snagged the last flag with CLONE_PIDFD during the 5.2 merge window for clone(). It cleanly supports all of the flags from clone() and thus all legacy workloads. There are few user visible differences between clone3 and clone. First, CLONE_DETACHED will cause EINVAL with clone3 so we can reuse this flag. Second, the CSIGNAL flag is deprecated and will cause EINVAL to be reported. It is superseeded by a dedicated "exit_signal" argument in struct clone_args thus freeing up even more flags. And third, clone3 gives CLONE_PIDFD a dedicated return argument in struct clone_args instead of abusing CLONE_PARENT_SETTID's parent_tidptr argument. The clone3 uapi is designed to be easy to handle on 32- and 64 bit: /* uapi */ struct clone_args { __aligned_u64 flags; __aligned_u64 pidfd; __aligned_u64 child_tid; __aligned_u64 parent_tid; __aligned_u64 exit_signal; __aligned_u64 stack; __aligned_u64 stack_size; __aligned_u64 tls; }; and a separate kernel struct is used that uses proper kernel typing: /* kernel internal */ struct kernel_clone_args { u64 flags; int __user *pidfd; int __user *child_tid; int __user *parent_tid; int exit_signal; unsigned long stack; unsigned long stack_size; unsigned long tls; }; The system call comes with a size argument which enables the kernel to detect what version of clone_args userspace is passing in. clone3 validates that any additional bytes a given kernel does not know about are set to zero and that the size never exceeds a page. A nice feature is that this patchset allowed us to cleanup and simplify various core kernel codepaths in kernel/fork.c by making the internal _do_fork() function take struct kernel_clone_args even for legacy clone(). This patch also unblocks the time namespace patchset which wants to introduce a new CLONE_TIMENS flag. Note, that clone3 has only been wired up for x86{_32,64}, arm{64}, and xtensa. These were the architectures that did not require special massaging. Other architectures treat fork-like system calls individually and after some back and forth neither Arnd nor I felt confident that we dared to add clone3 unconditionally to all architectures. We agreed to leave this up to individual architecture maintainers. This is why there's an additional patch that introduces __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 which any architecture can set once it has implemented support for clone3. The patch also adds a cond_syscall(clone3) for architectures such as nios2 or h8300 that generate their syscall table by simply including asm-generic/unistd.h. The hope is to get rid of __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 and cond_syscall() rather soon" * tag 'clone3-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: arch: handle arches who do not yet define clone3 arch: wire-up clone3() syscall fork: add clone3
2019-07-10Merge tag 'pidfd-updates-v5.3' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner: "This adds two main features. - First, it adds polling support for pidfds. This allows process managers to know when a (non-parent) process dies in a race-free way. The notification mechanism used follows the same logic that is currently used when the parent of a task is notified of a child's death. With this patchset it is possible to put pidfds in an {e}poll loop and get reliable notifications for process (i.e. thread-group) exit. - The second feature compliments the first one by making it possible to retrieve pollable pidfds for processes that were not created using CLONE_PIDFD. A lot of processes get created with traditional PID-based calls such as fork() or clone() (without CLONE_PIDFD). For these processes a caller can currently not create a pollable pidfd. This is a problem for Android's low memory killer (LMK) and service managers such as systemd. Both patchsets are accompanied by selftests. It's perhaps worth noting that the work done so far and the work done in this branch for pidfd_open() and polling support do already see some adoption: - Android is in the process of backporting this work to all their LTS kernels [1] - Service managers make use of pidfd_send_signal but will need to wait until we enable waiting on pidfds for full adoption. - And projects I maintain make use of both pidfd_send_signal and CLONE_PIDFD [2] and will use polling support and pidfd_open() too" [1] https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22pidfd+polling+support+4.9+backport%22 https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22pidfd+polling+support+4.14+backport%22 https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22pidfd+polling+support+4.19+backport%22 [2] https://github.com/lxc/lxc/blob/aab6e3eb73c343231cdde775db938994fc6f2803/src/lxc/start.c#L1753 * tag 'pidfd-updates-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: tests: add pidfd_open() tests arch: wire-up pidfd_open() pid: add pidfd_open() pidfd: add polling selftests pidfd: add polling support

2019-02-07y2038: add 64-bit time_t syscalls to all 32-bit architecturesArnd Bergmann
This adds 21 new system calls on each ABI that has 32-bit time_t today. All of these have the exact same semantics as their existing counterparts, and the new ones all have macro names that end in 'time64' for clarification. This gets us to the point of being able to safely use a C library that has 64-bit time_t in user space. There are still a couple of loose ends to tie up in various areas of the code, but this is the big one, and should be entirely uncontroversial at this point. In particular, there are four system calls (getitimer, setitimer, waitid, and getrusage) that don't have a 64-bit counterpart yet, but these can all be safely implemented in the C library by wrapping around the existing system calls because the 32-bit time_t they pass only counts elapsed time, not time since the epoch. They will be dealt with later.

2019-02-07y2038: syscalls: rename y2038 compat syscallsArnd Bergmann
A lot of system calls that pass a time_t somewhere have an implementation using a COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() on 64-bit architectures, and have been reworked so that this implementation can now be used on 32-bit architectures as well. The missing step is to redefine them using the regular SYSCALL_DEFINEx() to get them out of the compat namespace and make it possible to build them on 32-bit architectures. Any system call that ends in 'time' gets a '32' suffix on its name for that version, while the others get a '_time32' suffix, to distinguish them from the normal version, which takes a 64-bit time argument in the future. In this step, only 64-bit architectures are changed, doing this rename first lets us avoid touching the 32-bit architectures twice.

2019-01-25ipc: rename old-style shmctl/semctl/msgctl syscallsArnd Bergmann
The behavior of these system calls is slightly different between architectures, as determined by the CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION symbol. Most architectures that implement the split IPC syscalls don't set that symbol and only get the modern version, but alpha, arm, microblaze, mips-n32, mips-n64 and xtensa expect the caller to pass the IPC_64 flag. For the architectures that so far only implement sys_ipc(), i.e. m68k, mips-o32, powerpc, s390, sh, sparc, and x86-32, we want the new behavior when adding the split syscalls, so we need to distinguish between the two groups of architectures. The method I picked for this distinction is to have a separate system call entry point: sys_old_*ctl() now uses ipc_parse_version, while sys_*ctl() does not. The system call tables of the five architectures are changed accordingly. As an additional benefit, we no longer need the configuration specific definition for ipc_parse_version(), it always does the same thing now, but simply won't get called on architectures with the modern interface. A small downside is that on architectures that do set ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION, we now have an extra set of entry points that are never called. They only add a few bytes of bloat, so it seems better to keep them compared to adding yet another Kconfig symbol. I considered adding new syscall numbers for the IPC_64 variants for consistency, but decided against that for now. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2019-01-25ARM: add kexec_file_load system call numberArnd Bergmann
A couple of architectures including arm64 already implement the kexec_file_load system call, on many others we have assigned a system call number for it, but not implemented it yet. Adding the number in arch/arm/ lets us use the system call on arm64 systems in compat mode, and also reduces the number of differences between architectures. If we want to implement kexec_file_load on ARM in the future, the number assignment means that kexec tools can already be built with the now current set of kernel headers.

2019-01-25ARM: add migrate_pages() system callArnd Bergmann
The migrate_pages system call has an assigned number on all architectures except ARM. When it got added initially in commit d80ade7b3231 ("ARM: Fix warning: #warning syscall migrate_pages not implemented"), it was intentionally left out based on the observation that there are no 32-bit ARM NUMA systems. However, there are now arm64 NUMA machines that can in theory run 32-bit kernels (actually enabling NUMA there would require additional work) as well as 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels, so that argument is no longer very strong. Assigning the number lets us use the system call on 64-bit kernels as well as providing a more consistent set of syscalls across architectures.

2018-07-12arm64: convert compat wrappers to CMark Rutland
In preparation for converting to pt_regs syscall wrappers, convert our existing compat wrappers to C. This will allow the pt_regs wrappers to be automatically generated, and will allow for the compat register manipulation to be folded in with the pt_regs accesses. To avoid confusion with the upcoming pt_regs wrappers and existing compat wrappers provided by core code, the C wrappers are renamed to compat_sys_aarch32_<syscall>. With the assembly wrappers gone, we can get rid of entry32.S and the associated boilerplate. Note that these must call the ksys_* syscall entry points, as the usual sys_* entry points will be modified to take a single pt_regs pointer argument.

2018-07-12arm64: remove sigreturn wrappersMark Rutland
The arm64 sigreturn* syscall handlers are non-standard. Rather than taking a number of user parameters in registers as per the AAPCS, they expect the pt_regs as their sole argument. To make this work, we override the syscall definitions to invoke wrappers written in assembly, which mov the SP into x0, and branch to their respective C functions. On other architectures (such as x86), the sigreturn* functions take no argument and instead use current_pt_regs() to acquire the user registers. This requires less boilerplate code, and allows for other features such as interposing C code in this path. This patch takes the same approach for arm64.

2017-04-17Remove compat_sys_getdents64()Al Viro
Unlike normal compat syscall variants, it is needed only for biarch architectures that have different alignement requirements for u64 in 32bit and 64bit ABI *and* have __put_user() that won't handle a store of 64bit value at 32bit-aligned address. We used to have one such (ia64), but its biarch support has been gone since 2010 (after being broken in 2008, which went unnoticed since nobody had been using it). It had escaped removal at the same time only because back in 2004 a patch that switched several syscalls on amd64 from private wrappers to generic compat ones had switched to use of compat_sys_getdents64(), which hadn't needed (or used) a compat wrapper on amd64.

2012-12-05arm64: compat for clock_adjtime(2) is miswiredAl Viro
struct timex is different on arm and arm64; adjtimex(2) takes care to convert, clock_adjtime(2) doesn't... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>
2012-12-02open*(2) compat fixes (s390, arm64)Al Viro
The usual rules for open()/openat()/open_by_handle_at() are 1) native 32bit - don't force O_LARGEFILE in flags 2) native 64bit - force O_LARGEFILE in flags 3) compat on 64bit host - as for native 32bit 4) native 32bit ABI for 64bit system (mips/n32, x86/x32) - as for native 64bit There are only two exceptions - s390 compat has open() forcing O_LARGEFILE and arm64 compat has open_by_handle_at() doing the same thing. The same binaries on native host (s390/31 and arm resp.) will *not* force O_LARGEFILE, so IMO both are emulation bugs. Objections? The fix is obvious...

2012-10-17arm64: Use generic sys_execve() implementationCatalin Marinas
This patch converts the arm64 port to use the generic sys_execve() implementation removing the arm64-specific (compat_)sys_execve_wrapper() functions. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2012-10-11arm64: Do not include asm/unistd32.h in asm/unistd.hCatalin Marinas
This patch only includes asm/unistd32.h where necessary and removes its inclusion in the asm/unistd.h file. The __SYSCALL_COMPAT guard is dropped. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
2012-10-11arm64: Remove unused definitions from asm/unistd32.hCatalin Marinas
This patch removes the compat __NR_* definitions from the unistd32.h file and only keeps those that are used by the AArch64 kernel with a new __NR_compat_* prefix. The additional wrapper definitions in arch/arm64/kernel/sys32.S have been removed and the actual wrapper names included in the asm/unistd32.h file.

2012-10-04UAPI: Fix the guards on various asm/unistd.h filesDavid Howells
asm-generic/unistd.h and a number of asm/unistd.h files have been given reinclusion guards that allow the guard to be overridden if __SYSCALL is defined. Unfortunately, these files define __SYSCALL and don't undefine it when they've finished with it, thus rendering the guard ineffective. The reason for this override is to allow the file to be #included multiple times with different settings on __SYSCALL for purposes like generating syscall tables. The following guards are problematic: arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(__ASM_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:#if !defined(__ASM_UNISTD32_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/c6x/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_C6X_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/hexagon/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_HEXAGON_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/openrisc/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(__ASM_OPENRISC_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/score/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_SCORE_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/tile/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_TILE_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) arch/unicore32/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(__UNICORE_UNISTD_H__) || defined(__SYSCALL) include/asm-generic/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_GENERIC_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL) On the assumption that the guards' ineffectiveness has passed unnoticed, just remove these guards entirely.

2012-09-17arm64: 32-bit (compat) applications supportWill Deacon
This patch adds support for 32-bit applications. The vectors page is a binary blob mapped into the application user space at 0xffff0000 (the AArch64 toolchain does not support compilation of AArch32 code). Full compatibility with ARMv7 user space is supported. The use of deprecated ARMv7 functionality (SWP, CP15 barriers) has been disabled by default on AArch64 kernels and unaligned LDM/STM is not supported. Please note that only the ARM 32-bit EABI is supported, so no OABI compatibility.
