| * Kconfig: consolidate CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKSStephen Boyd2013-04-303-20/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc. To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to this config. Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls. While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

| * dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()Tejun Heo2013-04-306-38/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same information and it's much easier to modify what's printed. show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack() does plus task and thread_info pointers. * Archs which didn't print debug info now do. alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r, metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc, um, xtensa * Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info(). The printed information is superset of what used to be there. arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86 * s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation. Converted to use the generic version. Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register dumps. An example BUG() dump follows. kernel BUG at /work/os/work/kernel/workqueue.c:4841! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.9.0-rc1-work+ #7 Hardware name: empty empty/S3992, BIOS 080011 10/26/2007 task: ffff88007c85e040 ti: ffff88007c860000 task.ti: ffff88007c860000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8234a07e>] [<ffffffff8234a07e>] init_workqueues+0x4/0x6 RSP: 0000:ffff88007c861ec8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff88007c861fd8 RBX: ffffffff824466a8 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000046 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffffffff8234a07a RBP: ffff88007c861ec8 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffffffff8234a07a R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88007dc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffff88015f7ff000 CR3: 00000000021f1000 CR4: 00000000000007f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Stack: ffff88007c861ef8 ffffffff81000312 ffffffff824466a8 ffff88007c85e650 0000000000000003 0000000000000000 ffff88007c861f38 ffffffff82335e5d ffff88007c862080 ffffffff8223d8c0 ffff88007c862080 ffffffff81c47760 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81000312>] do_one_initcall+0x122/0x170 [<ffffffff82335e5d>] kernel_init_freeable+0x9b/0x1c8 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 [<ffffffff81c4776e>] kernel_init+0xe/0xf0 [<ffffffff81c6be9c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 ... v2: Typo fix in x86-32. v3: CPU number dropped from show_regs_print_info() as dump_stack_print_info() has been updated to print it. s390 specific implementation dropped as requested by s390 maintainers.

| * dump_stack: implement arch-specific hardware description in task dumpsTejun Heo2013-04-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | x86 and ia64 can acquire extra hardware identification information from DMI and print it along with task dumps; however, the usage isn't consistent. * x86 show_regs() collects vendor, product and board strings and print them out with PID, comm and utsname. Some of the information is printed again later in the same dump. * warn_slowpath_common() explicitly accesses the DMI board and prints it out with "Hardware name:" label. This applies to both x86 and ia64 but is irrelevant on all other archs. * ia64 doesn't show DMI information on other non-WARN dumps. This patch introduces arch-specific hardware description used by dump_stack(). It can be set by calling dump_stack_set_arch_desc() during boot and, if exists, printed out in a separate line with "Hardware name:" label. dmi_set_dump_stack_arch_desc() is added which sets arch-specific description from DMI data. It uses dmi_ids_string[] which is set from dmi_present() used for DMI debug message. It is superset of the information x86 show_regs() is using. The function is called from x86 and ia64 boot code right after dmi_scan_machine(). This makes the explicit DMI handling in warn_slowpath_common() unnecessary. Removed. show_regs() isn't yet converted to use generic debug information printing and this patch doesn't remove the duplicate DMI handling in x86 show_regs(). The next patch will unify show_regs() handling and remove the duplication. An example WARN dump follows.

| * dump_stack: consolidate dump_stack() implementations and unify their behaviorsTejun Heo2013-04-301-18/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the backtrace while the two are identical on other archs. The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong, so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which triggered dump_stack(). There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information. This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand. Debug information can be printed separately by calling dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack() implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used in blackfin. This patch brings the following behavior changes. * On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be printed. This is because the top frame was determined in dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not sure whether that'd be necessary. * Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do now. An example WARN dump follows.

This loses %ksp from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation. dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file, dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack() - at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info() as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1 The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue.

Most of what gets printed is upto each architecture and the current state is not particularly pretty. Different pieces of information are presented differently depending on which path the dump takes and which architecture it's running on. This is messy for no good reason and makes it exceedingly difficult to add or modify debug information to task dumps. In all archs except for s390, there's nothing arch-specific about the printed debug information. This patchset updates all those archs to use the same helpers to consistently print out the same debug information. An example WARN dump after this patchset.

This enables show_regs() to use the same debug info message. 0006 updates show_regs() of all arches to use a common generic helper to print debug info. 0007 removes somem duplicate information from arc dumps. While this patchset changes how debug info is printed on some archs, the printed information is always superset of what used to be there. This patchset makes task dump debug messages consistent and enables adding more information. Workqueue is scheduled to add worker information including the workqueue in use and work item specific description. While this patch touches a lot of archs, it isn't too likely to cause non-trivial conflicts with arch-specfic changes and would probably be best to route together either through -mm. x86 is tested but other archs are either only compile tested or not tested at all. Changes to most archs are generally trivial. This patch: show_stack(current or NULL, NULL) is used to print the backtrace of the current task. As trace beyond the function itself isn't of much interest to anyone, don't show it by determining sp and bp in show_stack()'s frame and passing them to show_stack_log_lvl(). This brings show_stack(NULL, NULL)'s behavior in line with dump_stack(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Cc: David S.

It invokes functions that take spin locks with interrupts disabled, and hence it can run in atomic context. Also, it is run in the CPU_POST_DEAD phase, so the dying CPU is already dead and out of the cpu_online_mask. So take these points into account and simplify the code, and thereby also fix the above issue. Reported-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

Hence we do not need to worry about the pvops call-chain for saving the GDT and can and can eliminate it. The other areas where the store_gdt is used are never going to be hit when running under the pvops platforms.

Which is then used during the resume path and has the same exact value as what the store/load_gdt do with the saved_context (which is saved/restored via save/restore_processor_state()). The flow during resume from ACPI S3 is simpler than the 64-bit counterpart. We only use the early bootstrap once (wakeup_gdt) and do various checks in real mode. After the checks are completed, we load the saved GDT ('pmode_gdt') and continue on with the resume (by heading to startup_32 in trampoline_32.S) - which quickly jumps to what was saved in 'pmode_entry' aka 'wakeup_pmode_return'. The 'wakeup_pmode_return' restores the GDT (saved_gdt) again (which was saved in do_suspend_lowlevel initially). After that it ends up calling the 'ret_point' which calls 'restore_processor_state()'. We have two opportunities to remove code where we restore the same GDT twice. Here is the call chain: wakeup_start |- lgdtl wakeup_gdt [the work-around broken BIOSes] | | - lgdtl pmode_gdt [the real one] | \-- startup_32 (in trampoline_32.S) \-- wakeup_pmode_return (in wakeup_32.S) |- lgdtl saved_gdt [the real one] \-- ret_point |.. |- call restore_processor_state The hibernate path is much simpler. During the saving of the hibernation image we call save_processor_state() and save the contents of that along with the rest of the kernel in the hibernation image destination. We save the EIP of 'restore_registers' (restore_jump_address) and cr3 (restore_cr3). During hibernate resume, the 'restore_registers' (via the 'restore_jump_address) in hibernate_asm_32.S is invoked which restores the contents of most registers. Naturally the resume path benefits from already being in 32-bit mode, so it does not have to reload the GDT. It only reloads the cr3 (from restore_cr3) and continues on. Note that the restoration of the restore image page-tables is done prior to this. After the 'restore_registers' it returns and we end up called restore_processor_state() - where we reload the GDT. The reload of the GDT is not needed as bootup kernel has already loaded the GDT which is at the same physical location as the the restored kernel. Note that the hibernation path assumes the GDT is correct during its 'restore_registers'. The assumption in the code is that the restored image is the same as saved - meaning we are not trying to restore an different kernel in the virtual address space of a new kernel.

During the ACPI S3 suspend phase (acpi_suspend_lowlevel) we set: early_gdt_descr.address = (..)get_cpu_gdt_table(smp_processor_id()); which is then used during the resume path and has the same exact value as what the store/load_gdt do with the saved_context (which is saved/restored via save/restore_processor_state()). The flow during resume is complex and for 64-bit kernels we use three GDTs - one early bootstrap GDT (wakeup_igdt) that we load to workaround broken BIOSes, an early Protected Mode to Long Mode transition one (tr_gdt), and the final one - early_gdt_descr (which points to the real GDT). The early ('wakeup_gdt') is loaded in 'trampoline_start' for working around broken BIOSes, and then when we end up in Protected Mode in the startup_32 (in trampoline_64.s, not head_32.s) we use the 'tr_gdt' (still in trampoline_64.s). This 'tr_gdt' has a a 32-bit code segment, 64-bit code segment with L=1, and a 32-bit data segment. Once we have transitioned from Protected Mode to Long Mode we then set the GDT to 'early_gdt_desc' and then via an iretq emerge in wakeup_long64 (set via 'initial_code' variable in acpi_suspend_lowlevel). In the wakeup_long64 we end up restoring the %rip (which is set to 'resume_point') and jump there. In 'resume_point' we call 'restore_processor_state' which does the load_gdt on the saved context. This load_gdt is redundant as the GDT loaded via early_gdt_desc is the same. Here is the call-chain: wakeup_start |- lgdtl wakeup_gdt [the work-around broken BIOSes] | \-- trampoline_start (trampoline_64.S) |- lgdtl tr_gdt | \-- startup_32 (trampoline_64.S) | \-- startup_64 (trampoline_64.S) | \-- secondary_startup_64 |- lgdtl early_gdt_desc | ... |- movq initial_code(%rip), %eax |-.. lretq \-- wakeup_64 |-- other registers are reloaded |-- call restore_processor_state The hibernate path is much simpler. During the saving of the hibernation image we call save_processor_state() and save the contents of that along with the rest of the kernel in the hibernation image destination. We save the EIP of 'restore_registers' (restore_jump_address) and cr3 (restore_cr3).

Change the caller to hand down struct page * directly and the callee can compute the pte_t itself. Net save is one virt_to_page() call and simpler code. While at it, make __split_large_page() static.

This primarily removes the IDT from being a target for arbitrary memory write attacks, and has the added benefit of also not leaking the kernel base offset, if it has been relocated. We already did this on vendor == Intel and family == 5 because of the F0 0F bug -- regardless of if a particular CPU had the F0 0F bug or not. Since the workaround was so cheap, there simply was no reason to be very specific. This patch extends the readonly alias to all CPUs, but does not activate the #PF to #UD conversion code needed to deliver the proper exception in the F0 0F case except on Intel family 5 processors.
