The LSM initialization routines walk security_hook_heads as an array
of struct list_head instead of via names to avoid a ton of needless
source. Whitelist this to avoid the false positive warning from the
plugin:
security/security.c: In function ‘security_init’:
security/security.c:59:20: note: found mismatched op0 struct pointer types: ‘struct list_head’ and ‘struct security_hook_heads’
struct list_head *list = (struct list_head *) &security_hook_heads;

This randstruct plugin is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code
in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding
of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and
don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
The randstruct GCC plugin randomizes the layout of selected structures
at compile time, as a probabilistic defense against attacks that need to
know the layout of structures within the kernel. This is most useful for
"in-house" kernel builds where neither the randomization seed nor other
build artifacts are made available to an attacker. While less useful for
distribution kernels (where the randomization seed must be exposed for
third party kernel module builds), it still has some value there since now
all kernel builds would need to be tracked by an attacker.
In more performance sensitive scenarios, GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT_PERFORMANCE
can be selected to make a best effort to restrict randomization to
cacheline-sized groups of elements, and will not randomize bitfields. This
comes at the cost of reduced randomization.
Two annotations are defined,__randomize_layout and __no_randomize_layout,
which respectively tell the plugin to either randomize or not to
randomize instances of the struct in question. Follow-on patches enable
the auto-detection logic for selecting structures for randomization
that contain only function pointers. It is disabled here to assist with
bisection.
Since any randomized structs must be initialized using designated
initializers, __randomize_layout includes the __designated_init annotation
even when the plugin is disabled so that all builds will require
the needed initialization. (With the plugin enabled, annotations for
automatically chosen structures are marked as well.)
The main differences between this implemenation and grsecurity are:
- disable automatic struct selection (to be enabled in follow-up patch)
- add designated_init attribute at runtime and for manual marking
- clarify debugging output to differentiate bad cast warnings
- add whitelisting infrastructure
- support gcc 7's DECL_ALIGN and DECL_MODE changes (Laura Abbott)
- raise minimum required GCC version to 4.7
Earlier versions of this patch series were ported by Michael Leibowitz.

This allows structure annotations for requiring designated initialization
in GCC 5.1.0 and later:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Designated-Inits.html
The structure randomization layout plugin will be using this to help
identify structures that need this form of initialization.

The c-common.h file moved in stock gcc 4.7, not gcc 4.6. However, most
people building plugins with gcc 4.6 are using the Debian or Ubuntu
version, which includes a patch to move the headers to the 4.7 location.
In case anyone trips over this with a stock gcc 4.6, add a pointer to the
patch used by Debian/Ubuntu.

Prepare to mark sensitive kernel structures for randomization by making
sure they're using designated initializers. In this case, no initializers
are needed (they can be NULL initialized and callers adjusted to check
for NULL, which is more efficient than an indirect call).

When trying to propagate an error result, the error return path attempts
to retain the error, but does this with an open cast across very different
types, which the upcoming structure layout randomization plugin flags as
being potentially dangerous in the face of randomization. This is a false
positive, but what this code actually wants to do is use ERR_CAST() to
retain the error value.

When the call to nfs_devname() fails, the error path attempts to retain
the error via the mnt variable, but this requires a cast across very
different types (char * to struct vfsmount *), which the upcoming
structure layout randomization plugin flags as being potentially
dangerous in the face of randomization. This is a false positive, but
what this code actually wants to do is retain the error value, so this
patch explicitly sets it, instead of using what seems to be an
unexpected cast.

The code to fetch a 64-bit value from user space was entirely buggered,
and has been since the code was merged in early 2016 in commit
b2f680380d ("x86/mm/32: Add support for 64-bit __get_user() on 32-bit
kernels").
Happily the buggered routine is almost certainly entirely unused, since
the normal way to access user space memory is just with the non-inlined
"get_user()", and the inlined version didn't even historically exist.
The normal "get_user()" case is handled by external hand-written asm in
arch/x86/lib/getuser.S that doesn't have either of these issues.
There were two independent bugs in __get_user_asm_u64():
- it still did the STAC/CLAC user space access marking, even though
that is now done by the wrapper macros, see commit 11f1a4b975
("x86: reorganize SMAP handling in user space accesses").
This didn't result in a semantic error, it just means that the
inlined optimized version was hugely less efficient than the
allegedly slower standard version, since the CLAC/STAC overhead is
quite high on modern Intel CPU's.
- the double register %eax/%edx was marked as an output, but the %eax
part of it was touched early in the asm, and could thus clobber other
inputs to the asm that gcc didn't expect it to touch.
In particular, that meant that the generated code could look like
this:
mov (%eax),%eax
mov 0x4(%eax),%edx
where the load of %edx obviously was _supposed_ to be from the 32-bit
word that followed the source of %eax, but because %eax was
overwritten by the first instruction, the source of %edx was
basically random garbage.
The fixes are trivial: remove the extraneous STAC/CLAC entries, and mark
the 64-bit output as early-clobber to let gcc know that no inputs should
alias with the output register.

Al noticed that unsafe_put_user() had type problems, and fixed them in
commit a7cc722fff ("fix unsafe_put_user()"), which made me look more
at those functions.
It turns out that unsafe_get_user() had a type issue too: it limited the
largest size of the type it could handle to "unsigned long". Which is
fine with the current users, but doesn't match our existing normal
get_user() semantics, which can also handle "u64" even when that does
not fit in a long.
While at it, also clean up the type cast in unsafe_put_user(). We
actually want to just make it an assignment to the expected type of the
pointer, because we actually do want warnings from types that don't
convert silently. And it makes the code more readable by not having
that one very long and complex line.
[ This patch might become stable material if we ever end up back-porting
any new users of the unsafe uaccess code, but as things stand now this
doesn't matter for any current existing uses. ]

Rather than waiting for reset work thread to stop queues and abort the ios,
immediately stop the queues on error detection. Reset thread will restop
the queues (as it's called on other paths), but it does not appear to have
