* [S390] allow all addressing modesMartin Schwidefsky2011-10-301-15/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The user space program can change its addressing mode between the 24-bit, 31-bit and the 64-bit mode if the kernel is 64 bit. Currently the kernel always forces the standard amode on signal delivery and signal return and on ptrace: 64-bit for a 64-bit process, 31-bit for a compat process and 31-bit kernels. Change the signal and ptrace code to allow the full range of addressing modes. Signal handlers are run in the standard addressing mode for the process. One caveat is that even an 31-bit compat process can switch to the 64-bit mode. The next signal will switch back into the 31-bit mode and there is no room in the 31-bit compat signal frame to store the information that the program came from the 64-bit mode.

* [S390] cleanup psw related bits and piecesMartin Schwidefsky2011-10-301-18/+18
| | | | | | | | | | Split out addressing mode bits from PSW_BASE_BITS, rename PSW_BASE_BITS to PSW_MASK_BASE, get rid of psw_user32_bits, remove unused function enabled_wait(), introduce PSW_MASK_USER, and drop PSW_MASK_MERGE macros. Change psw_kernel_bits / psw_user_bits to contain only the bits that are always set in the respective mode. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] add TIF_SYSCALL thread flagMartin Schwidefsky2011-10-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Add an explicit TIF_SYSCALL bit that indicates if a task is inside a system call. The svc_code in the pt_regs structure is now only valid if TIF_SYSCALL is set. With this definition TIF_RESTART_SVC can be replaced with TIF_SYSCALL. Overall do_signal is a bit more readable and it saves a few lines of code.

* [S390] signal race with restarting system callsMartin Schwidefsky2011-10-301-1/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a ERESTARTNOHAND/ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR restarting system call do_signal will prepare the restart of the system call with a rewind of the PSW before calling get_signal_to_deliver (where the debugger might take control). For A ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK restarting system call do_signal will set -EINTR as return code. There are two issues with this approach: 1) strace never sees ERESTARTNOHAND, ERESTARTSYS, ERESTARTNOINTR or ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK as the rewinding already took place or the return code has been changed to -EINTR 2) if get_signal_to_deliver does not return with a signal to deliver the restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is left in place. This opens a race if another signal is made pending before the system call instruction can be reexecuted. The original system call will be restarted even if the second signal would have ended the system call with -EINTR. These two issues can be solved by dropping the early rewind of the system call before get_signal_to_deliver has been called and by using the TIF_RESTART_SVC magic to do the restart if no signal has to be delivered. The only situation where the system call restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is appropriate is when a SA_RESTART signal is delivered to user space. Unfortunately this breaks inferior calls by the debugger again. The system call number and the length of the system call instruction is lost over the inferior call and user space will see ERESTARTNOHAND/ ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR/ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. To correct this a new ptrace interface is added to save/restore the system call number and system call instruction length. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] user per registers vs. ptrace single steppingMartin Schwidefsky2011-10-301-14/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git commit 5e9a2692 "[S390] ptrace cleanup" introduced a regression for the case when both a user PER set (e.g. a storage alteration trace) and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP are active. The new code will overrule the user PER set with a instruction-fetch PER set over the whole address space for ptrace single stepping. The inferior process will be stopped after each instruction with an instruction fetch event. Any other events that may have occurred concurrently are not reported (e.g. storage alteration event) because the control bits for them are not set. The solution is to merge the PER control bits of the user PER set with the PER_EVENT_IFETCH control bit for PTRACE_SINGLESTEP.

* tracing: Move tracepoint callbacks from declaration to definitionJosh Stone2009-08-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's not strictly correct for the tracepoint reg/unreg callbacks to occur when a client is hooking up, because the actual tracepoint may not be present yet. This happens to be fine for syscall, since that's in the core kernel, but it would cause problems for tracepoints defined in a module that hasn't been loaded yet. It also means the reg/unreg has to be EXPORTed for any modules to use the tracepoint (as in SystemTap). This patch removes DECLARE_TRACE_WITH_CALLBACK, and instead introduces DEFINE_TRACE_FN which stores the callbacks in struct tracepoint. The callbacks are used now when the active state of the tracepoint changes in set_tracepoint & disable_tracepoint. This also introduces TRACE_EVENT_FN, so ftrace events can also provide registration callbacks if needed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit fb34a08c3 ("tracing: Add trace events for each syscall entry/exit") changed the lowlevel API to ftrace syscall tracing but did not update s390 which started making use of it recently. This broke the s390 build, as reported by Paul Mundt. Update the callbacks with the syscall number and the syscall return code values.

But collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus. To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path. The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2] for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2] may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

* [S390] noexec protectionGerald Schaefer2007-02-051-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides a noexec protection on s390 hardware. Our hardware does not have any bits left in the pte for a hw noexec bit, so this is a different approach using shadow page tables and a special addressing mode that allows separate address spaces for code and data. As a special feature of our "secondary-space" addressing mode, separate page tables can be specified for the translation of data addresses (storage operands) and instruction addresses. The shadow page table is used for the instruction addresses and the standard page table for the data addresses. The shadow page table is linked to the standard page table by a pointer in page->lru.next of the struct page corresponding to the page that contains the standard page table (since page->private is not really private with the pte_lock and the page table pages are not in the LRU list). Depending on the software bits of a pte, it is either inserted into both page tables or just into the standard (data) page table. Pages of a vma that does not have the VM_EXEC bit set get mapped only in the data address space. Any try to execute code on such a page will cause a page translation exception. The standard reaction to this is a SIGSEGV with two exceptions: the two system call opcodes 0x0a77 (sys_sigreturn) and 0x0aad (sys_rt_sigreturn) are allowed. They are stored by the kernel to the signal stack frame. Unfortunately, the signal return mechanism cannot be modified to use an SA_RESTORER because the exception unwinding code depends on the system call opcode stored behind the signal stack frame. This feature requires that user space is executed in secondary-space mode and the kernel in home-space mode, which means that the addressing modes need to be switched and that the noexec protection only works for user space. After switching the addressing modes, we cannot use the mvcp/mvcs instructions anymore to copy between kernel and user space. A new mvcos instruction has been added to the z9 EC/BC hardware which allows to copy between arbitrary address spaces, but on older hardware the page tables need to be walked manually.

Switch them to the common helpers. Add a ptrace_traceme() helper that needs to be explicitly called, and simplify the ptrace_get_task_struct() interface. We don't need the request argument now, and we return the task_struct directly, using ERR_PTR() for error returns. It's a bit more code in the callers, but we have two sane routines that do one thing well now.

* [PATCH] s390: uml ptrace fixesBodo Stroesser2005-06-041-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To make UML build and run on s390, I needed to do these two little changes: 1) UML includes some of the subarch's (s390) headers. I had to change one of them with the following one-liner, to make this compile. AFAICS, this change doesn't break compilation of s390 itself. 2) UML needs to intercept syscalls via ptrace to invalidate the syscall, read syscall's parameters and write the result with the result of UML's syscall processing. Also, UML needs to make sure, that the host does no syscall restart processing. On i386 for example, this can be done by writing -1 to orig_eax on the 2nd syscall interception (orig_eax is the syscall number, which after the interception is used as a "interrupt was a syscall" flag only. Unfortunately, s390 holds syscall number and syscall result in gpr2 and its "interrupt was a syscall" flag (trap) is unreachable via ptrace. So I changed the host to set trap to -1, if the syscall number is changed to an invalid value on the first syscall interception.

* [PATCH] s390: ptrace peek and pokeMartin Schwidefsky2005-06-041-5/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The special cases of peek and poke on acrs[15] and the fpc register are not handled correctly. A poke on acrs[15] will clobber the 4 bytes after the access registers in the thread_info structure. That happens to be the kernel stack pointer. A poke on the fpc with an invalid value is not caught by the validity check. On the next context switch the broken fpc value will cause a program check in the kernel. Improving the checks in peek and poke fixes this.

* | [AUDIT] Don't allow ptrace to fool auditing, log arch of audited syscalls.2005-04-291-10/+11
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were calling ptrace_notify() after auditing the syscall and arguments, but the debugger could have _changed_ them before the syscall was actually invoked. Reorder the calls to fix that. While we're touching ever call to audit_syscall_entry(), we also make it take an extra argument: the architecture of the syscall which was made, because some architectures allow more than one type of syscall. Also add an explicit success/failure flag to audit_syscall_exit(), for the benefit of architectures which return that in a condition register rather than only returning a single register. Change type of syscall return value to 'long' not 'int'. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+738
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
