2017-09-19signal: replace sigset_to_compat() with put_compat_sigset()Dmitry V. Levin
There are 4 callers of sigset_to_compat() in the entire kernel. One is in sparc compat rt_sigaction(2), the rest are in kernel/signal.c itself. All are followed by copy_to_user(), and all but the sparc one are under "if it's big-endian..." ifdefs. Let's transform sigset_to_compat() into put_compat_sigset() that also calls copy_to_user().

Compat syscalls moved to their native counterparts, getting rid of quite a bit of double-copying and/or set_fs() uses. A lot of field-by-field copyin/copyout killed off. - kernel/compat.c is much closer to containing just the copyin/copyout of compat structs. Not all compat syscalls are gone from it yet, but it's getting there. - ipc/compat_mq.c killed off completely. - block/compat_ioctl.c cleaned up; floppy compat ioctls moved to drivers/block/floppy.c where they belong. Yes, there are several drivers that implement some of the same ioctls.

2017-06-25time: add get_timespec64 and put_timespec64Deepa Dinamani
Add helper functions to convert between struct timespec64 and struct timespec at userspace boundaries. This is a preparatory patch to use timespec64 as the basic type internally in the kernel as timespec is not y2038 safe on 32 bit systems. The patch helps the cause by containing all data conversions at the userspace boundaries within these functions.

2016-11-16posix-timers: Make them configurableNicolas Pitre
Some embedded systems have no use for them. This removes about 25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out. Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create, timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete, clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm. The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast majority of use cases with very little code.

2015-06-04compat: cleanup coding in compat_get_bitmap() and compat_put_bitmap()Helge Deller
In the functions compat_get_bitmap() and compat_put_bitmap() the variable nr_compat_longs stores how many compat_ulong_t words should be copied in a loop. The copy loop itself is this: if (nr_compat_longs-- > 0) { if (__get_user(um, umask)) return -EFAULT; } else { um = 0; } Since nr_compat_longs gets unconditionally decremented in each loop and since it's type is unsigned this could theoretically lead to out of bounds accesses to userspace if nr_compat_longs wraps around to (unsigned)(-1). Although the callers currently do not trigger out-of-bounds accesses, we should better implement the loop in a safe way to completely avoid such warp-arounds.

2015-02-12all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_structAndy Lutomirski
If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack. Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by making the restart_block harder to locate. Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy targets, at least on some architectures. It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less identical on all architectures.

2014-02-02compat: Get rid of (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec)H. Peter Anvin
We have two APIs for compatiblity timespec/val, with confusingly similar names. compat_(get|put)_time(val|spec) *do* handle the case where COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is set, whereas (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) do not. This is an accident waiting to happen. Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c. A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in an allocation on the user stack. Unfortunately it is open-coded in several places. Since this allocation isn't actually needed if COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format) encapsulate that whole pattern into the function compat_convert_timespec(). An equivalent function should be written for struct timeval if it is needed in the future. Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said (no conversion actually was being done.) Moving the conversion into compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to sys_settimeofday() itself. v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval(). v2: Drop bogus "const" in the destination argument for compat_convert_time*().

2013-04-30kernel/compat.c: make do_sysinfo() staticStephen Rothwell
The only use outside of kernel/timer.c was in kernel/compat.c, so move compat_sys_sysinfo() next to sys_sysinfo() in kernel/timer.c.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro: "This is the first pile; another one will come a bit later and will contain SYSCALL_DEFINE-related patches. - a bunch of signal-related syscalls (both native and compat) unified. - a bunch of compat syscalls switched to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE (fixing several potential problems with missing argument validation, while we are at it) - a lot of now-pointless wrappers killed - a couple of architectures (cris and hexagon) forgot to save altstack settings into sigframe, even though they used the (uninitialized) values in sigreturn; fixed. - microblaze fixes for delivery of multiple signals arriving at once - saner set of helpers for signal delivery introduced, several architectures switched to using those." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: (143 commits) x86: convert to ksignal sparc: convert to ksignal arm: switch to struct ksignal * passing alpha: pass k_sigaction and siginfo_t using ksignal pointer burying unused conditionals make do_sigaltstack() static arm64: switch to generic old sigaction() (compat-only) arm64: switch to generic compat rt_sigaction() arm64: switch compat to generic old sigsuspend arm64: switch to generic compat rt_sigqueueinfo() arm64: switch to generic compat rt_sigpending() arm64: switch to generic compat rt_sigprocmask() arm64: switch to generic sigaltstack sparc: switch to generic old sigsuspend sparc: COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE does all sign-extension as well as SYSCALL_DEFINE sparc: kill sign-extending wrappers for native syscalls kill sparc32_open() sparc: switch to use of generic old sigaction sparc: switch sys_compat_rt_sigaction() to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE mips: switch to generic sys_fork() and sys_clone() ...

The copy_to_user() call returns the number of bytes remaining but we want to return -EFAULT on error.

... and make it unconditional - we want the sucker on all biarch platforms, really. All kinds of wrappers and private implementations can go now; fortunately, they don't cause name conflicts, so we can do that one first without any bisect hazards. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
