* lib/uuid.c: introduce a few more generic helpersAndy Shevchenko2016-05-201-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are new helpers in this patch: uuid_is_valid checks if a UUID is valid uuid_be_to_bin converts from string to binary (big endian) uuid_le_to_bin converts from string to binary (little endian) They will be used in future, i.e. in the following patches in the series. This also moves the indices arrays to lib/uuid.c to be shared accross modules.

* lib/vsprintf: simplify UUID printingAndy Shevchenko2016-05-201-8/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are few functions here and there along with type definitions that provide UUID API. This series consolidates everything under one hood and converts current users. This has been tested for a while internally, however it doesn't mean we covered all possible cases (especially accuracy of UUID constants after conversion). So, please test this as much as you can and provide your tag. We appreciate the effort. The ACPI conversion is postponed for now to sort more generic things out first. This patch (of 9): Since we have hex_byte_pack_upper() we may use it directly and avoid second loop.

* sscanf: implement basic character setsJessica Yu2016-03-171-1/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement basic character sets for the '%[' conversion specifier. The '%[' conversion specifier matches a nonempty sequence of characters from the specified set of accepted (or with '^', rejected) characters between the brackets. The substring matched is to be made up of characters in (or not in) the set. This is useful for matching substrings that are delimited by something other than spaces. This implementation differs from its glibc counterpart in the following ways: (1) No support for character ranges (e.g., 'a-z' or '0-9') (2) The hyphen '-' is not a special character (3) The closing bracket ']' cannot be matched (4) No support (yet) for discarding matching input ('%*[') The bitmap code is largely based upon sample code which was provided by Rasmus. The motivation for adding character set support to sscanf originally stemmed from the kernel livepatching project. An ongoing patchset utilizes new livepatch Elf symbol and section names to store important metadata livepatch needs to properly apply its patches. Such metadata is stored in these section and symbol names as substrings delimited by periods '.' and commas ','. For example, a livepatch symbol name might look like this: .klp.sym.vmlinux.printk,0 However, sscanf currently can only extract "substrings" delimited by whitespace using the "%s" specifier. Thus for the above symbol name, one cannot not use sscanf() to extract substrings "vmlinux" or "printk", for example. A number of discussions on the livepatch mailing list dealing with string parsing code for extracting these '.' and ',' delimited substrings eventually led to the conclusion that such code would be completely unnecessary if the kernel sscanf() supported character sets. Thus only a single sscanf() call would be necessary to extract these substrings. In addition, such an addition to sscanf() could benefit other areas of the kernel that might have a similar need in the future.

* mm, printk: introduce new format string for flagsVlastimil Babka2016-03-151-0/+75
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not usable for e.g. sysfs export. To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp), gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified. It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the %p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a non-critical path is negligible.

* vsprintf: kptr_restrict is okay in IRQ when 2Jason A. Donenfeld2016-02-111-13/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kptr_restrict flag, when set to 1, only prints the kernel address when the user has CAP_SYSLOG. When it is set to 2, the kernel address is always printed as zero. When set to 1, this needs to check whether or not we're in IRQ. However, when set to 2, this check is unneccessary, and produces confusing results in dmesg. Thus, only make sure we're not in IRQ when mode 1 is used, but not mode 2.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | special_hex_number() is a helper to print a fixed size type in a hex format with '0x' prefix, zero padding, and small letters. In the module we have already several copies of such code. Consolidate them under special_hex_number() helper. There are couple of differences though. It seems nobody cared about the output in case of CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n, when printing symbol address, because the asked field width is not enough to care last 2 characters in the string represantation of the pointer. Fixed here. The %pNF specifier used to be allowed with a specific field width, though there is neither any user of it nor mention the possibility in the documentation.

* lib/vsprintf.c: warn about too large precisions and field widthsRasmus Villemoes2016-01-161-4/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The field width is overloaded to pass some extra information for some %p extensions (e.g. #bits for %pb). But we might silently truncate the passed value when we stash it in struct printf_spec (see e.g. "lib/vsprintf.c: expand field_width to 24 bits"). Hopefully 23 value bits should now be enough for everybody, but if not, let's make some noise. Do the same for the precision. In both cases, clamping seems more sensible than truncating. While, according to POSIX, "A negative precision is taken as if the precision were omitted.", the kernel's printf has always treated that case as if the precision was 0, so we use that as lower bound. For the field width, the smallest representable value is actually -(1<<23), but a negative field width means 'set the LEFT flag and use the absolute value', so we want the absolute value to fit.

* lib/vsprintf.c: expand field_width to 24 bitsRasmus Villemoes2016-01-161-20/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maurizio Lombardi reported a problem [1] with the %pb extension: It doesn't work for sufficiently large bitmaps, since the size is stashed in the field_width field of the struct printf_spec, which is currently an s16. Concretely, this manifested itself in /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/map being empty, since the bitmap printer got a size of 0, which is the 16 bit truncation of the actual bitmap size. We do want to keep struct printf_spec at 8 bytes so that it can cheaply be passed by value. The qualifier field is only used for internal bookkeeping in format_decode, so we might as well use a local variable for that. This gives us an additional 8 bits, which we can then use for the field width. To stay in 8 bytes, we need to do a little rearranging and make the type member a bitfield as well. For consistency, change all the members to bit fields. gcc doesn't generate much worse code with these changes (in fact, bloat-o-meter says we save 300 bytes - which I think is a little surprising). I didn't find a BUILD_BUG/compiletime_assertion/... which would work outside function context, so for now I just open-coded it.

* lib/vsprintf.c: eliminate potential race in string()Rasmus Villemoes2016-01-161-19/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the string corresponding to a %s specifier can change under us, we might end up copying a \0 byte to the output buffer. There might be callers who expect the output buffer to contain a genuine C string whose length is exactly the snprintf return value (assuming truncation hasn't happened or has been checked for). We can avoid this by only passing over the source string once, stopping the first time we meet a nul byte (or when we reach the given precision), and then letting widen_string() handle left/right space padding. As a small bonus, this code reuse also makes the generated code slightly smaller.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*. When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format string, but we can't rely on that always being the case. Also, gcc doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly. So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the format/arguments. If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.

* lib/vsprintf.c: even faster binary to decimal conversionRasmus Villemoes2015-04-171-118/+128
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The most expensive part of decimal conversion is the divisions by 10 (albeit done using reciprocal multiplication with appropriately chosen constants). I decided to see if one could eliminate around half of these multiplications by emitting two digits at a time, at the cost of a 200 byte lookup table, and it does indeed seem like there is something to be gained, especially on 64 bits. Microbenchmarking shows improvements ranging from -50% (for numbers uniformly distributed in [0, 2^64-1]) to -25% (for numbers heavily biased toward the smaller end, a more realistic distribution). On a larger scale, perf shows that top, one of the big consumers of /proc data, uses 0.5-1.0% fewer cpu cycles. I had to jump through some hoops to get the 32 bit code to compile and run on my 64 bit machine, so I'm not sure how relevant these numbers are, but just for comparison the microbenchmark showed improvements between -30% and -10%. The bloat-o-meter costs are around 150 bytes (the generated code is a little smaller, so it's not the full 200 bytes) on both 32 and 64 bit. I'm aware that extra cache misses won't show up in a microbenchmark as used above, but on the other hand decimal conversions often happen in bulk (for example in the case of top). I have of course tested that the new code generates the same output as the old, for both the first and last 1e10 numbers in [0,2^64-1] and 4e9 'random' numbers in-between.

* lib/string_helpers.c: change semantics of string_escape_memRasmus Villemoes2015-04-151-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf). So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like: Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination. It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences, otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever they previously contained. This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem(); since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops. In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref) if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for kasprintf("%pE") to work. In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics. Someone should definitely double-check this. In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it should stop poking around in seq_file internals.

* lib/vsprintf.c: fix potential NULL deref in hex_stringRasmus Villemoes2015-04-151-4/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The helper hex_string() is broken in two ways. First, it doesn't increment buf regardless of whether there is room to print, so callers such as kasprintf() that try to probe the correct storage to allocate will get a too small return value. But even worse, kasprintf() (and likely anyone else trying to find the size of the result) pass NULL for buf and 0 for size, so we also have end == NULL. But this means that the end-1 in hex_string() is (char*)-1, so buf < end-1 is true and we get a NULL pointer deref. I double-checked this with a trivial kernel module that just did a kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%14ph", "CrashBoomBang"). Nobody seems to be using %ph with kasprintf, but we might as well fix it before it hits someone.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At least since the initial git commit, when base was passed as a separate parameter, number() has only been called with bases 8, 10 and 16.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since FORMAT_TYPE_INT is simply 1 more than FORMAT_TYPE_UINT, and similarly for BYTE/UBYTE, SHORT/USHORT, LONG/ULONG, we can eliminate a few instructions by making SIGN have the value 1 instead of 2, and then use arithmetic instead of branches for computing the right spec->type. It's a little hacky, but certainly in the same spirit as SMALL needing to have the value 0x20. For example for the spec->qualifier == 'l' case, gcc now generates 75e: 0f b6 53 01 movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx 762: 83 e2 01 and $0x1,%edx 765: 83 c2 09 add $0x9,%edx 768: 88 13 mov %dl,(%rbx) instead of 763: 0f b6 53 01 movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx 767: 83 e2 02 and $0x2,%edx 76a: 80 fa 01 cmp $0x1,%dl 76d: 19 d2 sbb %edx,%edx 76f: 83 c2 0a add $0xa,%edx 772: 88 13 mov %dl,(%rbx) Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* lib/vsprintf: implement bitmap printing through '%*pb[l]'Tejun Heo2015-02-131-0/+94
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bitmap and its derivatives such as cpumask and nodemask currently only provide formatting functions which put the output string into the provided buffer; however, how long this buffer should be isn't defined anywhere and given that some of these bitmaps can be too large to be formatted into an on-stack buffer it users sometimes are unnecessarily forced to come up with creative solutions and compromises for the buffer just to printk these bitmaps. There have been a couple different attempts at making this easier. 1. Way back, PeterZ tried printk '%pb' extension with the precision for bit width - '%.*pb'. This was intuitive and made sense but unfortunately triggered a compile warning about using precision for a pointer. http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1336577562.2527.58.camel@twins 2. I implemented bitmap_pr_cont[_list]() and its wrappers for cpumask and nodemask. This works but PeterZ pointed out that pr_cont's tendency to produce broken lines when multiple CPUs are printing is bothering considering the usages. http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1418226774-30215-3-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org So, this patch is another attempt at teaching printk and friends how to print bitmaps. It's almost identical to what PeterZ tried with precision but it uses the field width for the number of bits instead of precision. The format used is '%*pb[l]', with the optional trailing 'l' specifying list format instead of hex masks. This is a valid format string and doesn't trigger compiler warnings; however, it does make it impossible to specify output field width when printing bitmaps. I think this is an acceptable trade-off given how much easier it makes printing bitmaps and that we don't have any in-kernel user which is using the field width specification. If any future user wants to use field width with a bitmap, it'd have to format the bitmap into a string buffer and then print that buffer with width spec, which isn't different from how it should be done now. This patch implements bitmap[_list]_string() which are called from the vsprintf pointer() formatting function. The implementation is mostly identical to bitmap_scn[list]printf() except that the output is performed in the vsprintf way. These functions handle formatting into too small buffers and sprintf() family of functions report the correct overrun output length. bitmap_scn[list]printf() are now thin wrappers around scnprintf().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This ignores %n in printf again, as was originally documented. Implementing %n poses a greater security risk than utility, so it should stay ignored. To help anyone attempting to use %n, a warning will be emitted if it is encountered. Based on an earlier patch by Joe Perches. Because %n was designed to write to pointers on the stack, it has been frequently used as an attack vector when bugs are found that leak user-controlled strings into functions that ultimately process format strings. While this class of bug can still be turned into an information leak, removing %n eliminates the common method of elevating such a bug into an arbitrary kernel memory writing primitive, significantly reducing the danger of this class of bug. For seq_file users that need to know the length of a written string for padding, please see seq_setwidth() and seq_pad() instead.

* vsprintf: check real user/group id for %pKRyan Mallon2013-11-131-3/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some setuid binaries will allow reading of files which have read permission by the real user id. This is problematic with files which use %pK because the file access permission is checked at open() time, but the kptr_restrict setting is checked at read() time. If a setuid binary opens a %pK file as an unprivileged user, and then elevates permissions before reading the file, then kernel pointer values may be leaked. This happens for example with the setuid pppd application on Ubuntu 12.04: $ head -1 /proc/kallsyms 00000000 T startup_32 $ pppd file /proc/kallsyms pppd: In file /proc/kallsyms: unrecognized option 'c1000000' This will only leak the pointer value from the first line, but other setuid binaries may leak more information. Fix this by adding a check that in addition to the current process having CAP_SYSLOG, that effective user and group ids are equal to the real ids. If a setuid binary reads the contents of a file which uses %pK then the pointer values will be printed as NULL if the real user is unprivileged. Update the sysctl documentation to reflect the changes, and also correct the documentation to state the kptr_restrict=0 is the default. This is a only temporary solution to the issue. The correct solution is to do the permission check at open() time on files, and to replace %pK with a function which checks the open() time permission. %pK uses in printk should be removed since no sane permission check can be done, and instead protected by using dmesg_restrict.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to avoid making code that deals with printing both, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, unnecessary complicated as for example ... if (sa.sa_family == AF_INET6) printk("... %pI6 ...", ..sin6_addr); else printk("... %pI4 ...", ..sin_addr.s_addr); ... it would be better to introduce a format specifier that can deal with those kind of situations internally; just as we have a "struct sockaddr" for generic mapping into "struct sockaddr_in" or "struct sockaddr_in6" as e.g. done in "union sctp_addr". Then, we could reduce the above statement into something like: printk("... %pIS ..", &sockaddr); In case our pointer is NULL, pointer() then deals with that already at an earlier point in time internally. While we're at it, support for both %piS/%pIS, where 'S' stands for sockaddr, comes (almost) for free. Additionally to that, postfix specifiers 'p', 'f' and 's' are supported as suggested and initially implemented in 2009 by Joe Perches [1]. Handling of those additional specifiers orientate on the initial RFC that was proposed. Also we support IPv6 compressed format specified by 'c' and various other IPv4 extensions as stated in the documentation part. Likely, there are many other areas than just SCTP in the kernel to make use of this extension as well.

* vsprintf: Add extension %pSR - print_symbol replacementJoe Perches2013-04-301-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | print_symbol takes a long and converts it to a function name and offset. %pS does something similar, but doesn't translate the address via __builtin_extract_return_addr. %pSR does the translation. This will enable replacing multiple calls like printk(...); printk_symbol(addr); printk("\n"); with a single non-interleavable in dmesg printk("... %pSR\n", (void *)addr); Update documentation too.

* lib/vsprintf.c: add %pa format specifier for phys_addr_t typesStepan Moskovchenko2013-02-211-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the %pa format specifier for printing a phys_addr_t type and its derivative types (such as resource_size_t), since the physical address size on some platforms can vary based on build options, regardless of the native integer type.

* sscanf: don't ignore field widths for numeric conversionsJan Beulich2012-12-171-43/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is another step towards better standard conformance. Rather than adding a local buffer to store the specified portion of the string (with the need to enforce an arbitrary maximum supported width to limit the buffer size), do a maximum width conversion and then drop as much of it as is necessary to meet the caller's request. Also fail on negative field widths. Uses the deprecated simple_strto*() functions because kstrtoXX() fail on non-zero terminated strings.
