The reason for this is that install_special_mapping() expects the page array to stick around, and as this was only inserting one page which was stored on the kernel stack, that's why this was blowing up.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If kuser helpers are not provided by the kernel, disable user access to the vectors page. With the kuser helpers gone, there is no reason for this page to be visible to userspace. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the signal handlers into a VDSO page rather than keeping them in the vectors page. This allows us to place them randomly within this page, and also map the page at a random location within userspace further protecting these code fragments from ROP attacks. The new VDSO page is also poisoned in the same way as the vector page. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* | ARM: 7803/1: Fix deadlock scenario with smp_send_stop()Stephen Boyd2013-08-011-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If one process calls sys_reboot and that process then stops other CPUs while those CPUs are within a spin_lock() region we can potentially encounter a deadlock scenario like below. CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- spin_lock(my_lock) smp_send_stop() <send IPI> handle_IPI() disable_preemption/irqs while(1); <PREEMPT> spin_lock(my_lock) <--- Waits forever We shouldn't attempt to run any other tasks after we send a stop IPI to a CPU so disable preemption so that this task runs to completion. We use local_irq_disable() here for cross-arch consistency with x86.

| | |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 6a1c53124aa1 the user writeable TLS register was zeroed to prevent it from being used as a covert channel between two tasks. There are more and more applications coming to Windows RT, Wine could support them, but mostly they expect to have the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW. This patch preserves that register per thread instead of clearing it. Unlike the TPIDRURO, which is already switched, the TPIDRURW can be updated from userspace so needs careful treatment in the case that we modify TPIDRURW and call fork(). To avoid this we must always read TPIDRURW in copy_thread.

* | | ARM: 7759/1: decouple CPU offlining from reboot/shutdownStephen Warren2013-06-171-6/+37
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add comments to machine_shutdown()/halt()/power_off()/restart() that describe their purpose and/or requirements re: CPUs being active/not. In machine_shutdown(), replace the call to smp_send_stop() with a call to disable_nonboot_cpus(). This completely disables all but one CPU, thus satisfying the requirement that only a single CPU be active for kexec. Adjust Kconfig dependencies for this change. In machine_halt()/power_off()/restart(), call smp_send_stop() directly, rather than via machine_shutdown(); these functions don't need to completely de-activate all CPUs using hotplug, but rather just quiesce them. Remove smp_kill_cpus(), and its call from smp_send_stop(). smp_kill_cpus() was indirectly calling smp_ops.cpu_kill() without calling smp_ops.cpu_die() on the target CPUs first. At least some implementations of smp_ops had issues with this; it caused cpu_kill() to hang on Tegra, for example. Since smp_send_stop() is only used for shutdown, halt, and power-off, there is no need to attempt any kind of CPU hotplug here. Adjust Kconfig to reflect that machine_shutdown() (and hence kexec) relies upon disable_nonboot_cpus(). However, this alone doesn't guarantee that hotplug will work, or even that hotplug is implemented for a particular piece of HW that a multi-platform zImage runs on. Hence, add error-checking to machine_kexec() to determine whether it did work.

* | ARM: 7727/1: remove the .vm_mm value from gate_vmaSteven Capper2013-05-221-1/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If one reads /proc/$PID/smaps, the mmap_sem belonging to the address space of the task being examined is locked for reading. All the pages of the vmas belonging to the task's address space are then walked with this lock held. If a gate_vma is present in the architecture, it too is examined by the fs/proc/task_mmu.c code. As gate_vma doesn't belong to the address space of the task though, its pages are not walked. A recent cleanup (commit f6604efe) of the gate_vma initialisation code set the vm_mm value to &init_mm. Unfortunately a non-NULL vm_mm value in the gate_vma will cause the task_mmu code to attempt to walk the pages of the gate_vma (with no mmap-sem lock held). If one enables Transparent Huge Page support and vm debugging, this will then cause OOPses as pmd_trans_huge_lock is called without mmap_sem being locked. This patch removes the .vm_mm value from gate_vma, restoring the original behaviour of the task_mmu code.

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.

* | ARM: 7544/1: Add BUG_ON when hlt counter is wrongly usedfwu2012-10-181-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. On ARM platform, "nohlt" can be used to prevent core from idle process, returning immediately. 2. There are two interfaces, exported for other modules, named "disable_hlt" and "enable_hlt" are used to enable/disable the cpuidle mechanism by increasing/decreasing "hlt_counter". Disable_hlt and enable_hlt are paired operation, when you first call disable_hlt and then enable_hlt, the semantics are right. 3. There is no obvious constraint to prevent user(driver/module) code to prevent the case that enable_hlt is ahead of disable_hlt, which is a fatal operation on kernel state change from user, and there is no any WARNING or notification if the case happens in current kernel code. This patch aims to report BUG when the case happens, just like what the kernel do when enable_irq is ahead of disable_irq.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.

The forceful re-enablement of IRQs after pm_idle has returned can go. The warning certainly doesn't trigger for existing users. To get rid of the pm_idle calling convention oddity, let's introduce arm_pm_idle() allowing for the local_irq_enable() to be factored out from SOC specific implementations. The default pm_idle function becomes a wrapper for arm_pm_idle and it takes care of enabling IRQs closer to where they are initially disabled. And finally move the comment explaining the reason for that turning off of IRQs to a more proper location.

There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

As a result, the s3c2410 and plat-samsung system-reset.h files are no longer referenced, so remove these files entirely.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tools such as kexec and CPU hotplug require a way to reset the processor and branch to some code in physical space. This requires various bits of jiggery pokery with the caches and MMU which, when it goes wrong, tends to lock up the system. This patch fleshes out the soft_restart implementation so that it branches to the reset code using the identity mapping. This requires us to change to a temporary stack, held within the kernel image as a static array, to avoid conflicting with the new view of memory. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
