New x86 FPU features will be very large, requiring ~10k of stack in
signal handlers. These new features require a new approach called
"dynamic features".
The kernel currently tries to ensure that altstacks are reasonably
sized. Right now, on x86, sys_sigaltstack() requires a size of >=2k.
However, that 2k is a constant. Simply raising that 2k requirement
to >10k for the new features would break existing apps which have a
compiled-in size of 2k.
Instead of universally enforcing a larger stack, prohibit a process from
using dynamic features without properly-sized altstacks. This must be
enforced in two places:
* A dynamic feature can not be enabled without an large-enough altstack
for each process thread.
* Once a dynamic feature is enabled, any request to install a too-small
altstack will be rejected
The dynamic feature enabling code must examine each thread in a
process to ensure that the altstacks are large enough. Add a new lock
(sigaltstack_lock()) to ensure that threads can not race and change
their altstack after being examined.
Add the infrastructure in form of a config option and provide empty
stubs for architectures which do not need dynamic altstack size checks.
This implementation will be fleshed out for x86 in a future patch called
x86/arch_prctl: Add controls for dynamic XSTATE components

This reverts commits 4bad58ebc8 (and
399f8dd9a8, which tried to fix it).
I do not believe these are correct, and I'm about to release 5.13, so am
reverting them out of an abundance of caution.
The locking is odd, and appears broken.
On the allocation side (in __sigqueue_alloc()), the locking is somewhat
straightforward: it depends on sighand->siglock. Since one caller
doesn't hold that lock, it further then tests 'sigqueue_flags' to avoid
the case with no locks held.
On the freeing side (in sigqueue_cache_or_free()), there is no locking
at all, and the logic instead depends on 'current' being a single
thread, and not able to race with itself.
To make things more exciting, there's also the data race between freeing
a signal and allocating one, which is handled by using WRITE_ONCE() and
READ_ONCE(), and being mutually exclusive wrt the initial state (ie
freeing will only free if the old state was NULL, while allocating will
obviously only use the value if it was non-NULL, so only one or the
other will actually act on the value).
However, while the free->alloc paths do seem mutually exclusive thanks
to just the data value dependency, it's not clear what the memory
ordering constraints are on it. Could writes from the previous
allocation possibly be delayed and seen by the new allocation later,
causing logical inconsistencies?
So it's all very exciting and unusual.
And in particular, it seems that the freeing side is incorrect in
depending on "current" being single-threaded. Yes, 'current' is a
single thread, but in the presense of asynchronous events even a single
thread can have data races.
And such asynchronous events can and do happen, with interrupts causing
signals to be flushed and thus free'd (for example - sending a
SIGCONT/SIGSTOP can happen from interrupt context, and can flush
previously queued process control signals).
So regardless of all the other questions about the memory ordering and
locking for this new cached allocation, the sigqueue_cache_or_free()
assumptions seem to be fundamentally incorrect.
It may be that people will show me the errors of my ways, and tell me
why this is all safe after all. We can reinstate it if so. But my
current belief is that the WRITE_ONCE() that sets the cached entry needs
to be a smp_store_release(), and the READ_ONCE() that finds a cached
entry needs to be a smp_load_acquire() to handle memory ordering
correctly.
And the sequence in sigqueue_cache_or_free() would need to either use a
lock or at least be interrupt-safe some way (perhaps by using something
like the percpu 'cmpxchg': it doesn't need to be SMP-safe, but like the
percpu operations it needs to be interrupt-safe).

Pull siginfo fix from Eric Biederman:
"During the merge window an issue with si_perf and the siginfo ABI came
up. The alpha and sparc siginfo structure layout had changed with the
addition of SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF and the new field si_perf.
The reason only alpha and sparc were affected is that they are the
only architectures that use si_trapno.
Looking deeper it was discovered that si_trapno is used for only a few
select signals on alpha and sparc, and that none of the other
_sigfault fields past si_addr are used at all. Which means technically
no regression on alpha and sparc.
While the alignment concerns might be dismissed the abuse of si_errno
by SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF does have the potential to cause regressions in
existing userspace.
While we still have time before userspace starts using and depending
on the new definition siginfo for SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF this set of
changes cleans up siginfo_t.
- The si_trapno field is demoted from magic alpha and sparc status
and made an ordinary union member of the _sigfault member of
siginfo_t. Without moving it of course.
- si_perf is replaced with si_perf_data and si_perf_type ending the
abuse of si_errno.
- Unnecessary additions to signalfd_siginfo are removed"

The idea for this originates from the real time tree to make signal
delivery for realtime applications more efficient. In quite some of these
application scenarios a control tasks signals workers to start their
computations. There is usually only one signal per worker on flight. This
works nicely as long as the kmem cache allocations do not hit the slow path
and cause latencies.
To cure this an optimistic caching was introduced (limited to RT tasks)
which allows a task to cache a single sigqueue in a pointer in task_struct
instead of handing it back to the kmem cache after consuming a signal. When
the next signal is sent to the task then the cached sigqueue is used
instead of allocating a new one. This solved the problem for this set of
application scenarios nicely.
The task cache is not preallocated so the first signal sent to a task goes
always to the cache allocator. The cached sigqueue stays around until the
task exits and is freed when task::sighand is dropped.
After posting this solution for mainline the discussion came up whether
this would be useful in general and should not be limited to realtime
tasks: https://lore.kernel.org/r/m11rcu7nbr.fsf@fess.ebiederm.org
One concern leading to the original limitation was to avoid a large amount
of pointlessly cached sigqueues in alive tasks. The other concern was
vs. RLIMIT_SIGPENDING as these cached sigqueues are not accounted for.
The accounting problem is real, but on the other hand slightly academic.
After gathering some statistics it turned out that after boot of a regular
distro install there are less than 10 sigqueues cached in ~1500 tasks.
In case of a 'mass fork and fire signal to child' scenario the extra 80
bytes of memory per task are well in the noise of the overall memory
consumption of the fork bomb.
If this should be limited then this would need an extra counter in struct
user, more atomic instructions and a seperate rlimit. Yet another tunable
which is mostly unused.
The caching is actually used. After boot and a full kernel compile on a
64CPU machine with make -j128 the number of 'allocations' looks like this:
From slab: 23996
From task cache: 52223
I.e. it reduces the number of slab cache operations by ~68%.
A typical pattern there is:
<...>-58490 __sigqueue_alloc: for 58488 from slab ffff8881132df460
<...>-58488 __sigqueue_free: cache ffff8881132df460
<...>-58488 __sigqueue_alloc: for 1149 from cache ffff8881103dc550
bash-1149 exit_task_sighand: free ffff8881132df460
bash-1149 __sigqueue_free: cache ffff8881103dc550
The interesting sequence is that the exiting task 58488 grabs the sigqueue
from bash's task cache to signal exit and bash sticks it back into it's own
cache. Lather, rinse and repeat.
The caching is probably not noticable for the general use case, but the
benefit for latency sensitive applications is clear. While kmem caches are
usually just serving from the fast path the slab merging (default) can
depending on the usage pattern of the merged slabs cause occasional slow
path allocations.
The time spared per cached entry is a few micro seconds per signal which is
not relevant for e.g. a kernel build, but for signal heavy workloads it's
measurable.
As there is no real downside of this caching mechanism making it
unconditionally available is preferred over more conditional code or new
magic tunables.

Architectures that support address tagging, such as arm64, may want to
expose fault address tag bits to the signal handler to help diagnose
memory errors. However, these bits have not been previously set,
and their presence may confuse unaware user applications. Therefore,
introduce a SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS flag bit in sa_flags that a signal
handler may use to explicitly request that the bits are set.
The generic signal handler APIs expect to receive tagged addresses.
Architectures may specify how to untag addresses in the case where
SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS is clear by defining the arch_untagged_si_addr
function.

In preparation to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, explicitly
add break statements instead of letting the code fall through to the
next case.
This patch adds four break statements that, together, fix almost 40,000
warnings when building Linux 5.10-rc1 with Clang 12.0.0 and this[1] change
reverted. Notice that in order to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang,
such change[1] is meant to be reverted at some point. So, this patch helps
to move in that direction.
Something important to mention is that there is currently a discrepancy
between GCC and Clang when dealing with switch fall-through to empty case
statements or to cases that only contain a break/continue/return
statement[2][3][4].
Now that the -Wimplicit-fallthrough option has been globally enabled[5],
any compiler should really warn on missing either a fallthrough annotation
or any of the other case-terminating statements (break/continue/return/
goto) when falling through to the next case statement. Making exceptions
to this introduces variation in case handling which may continue to lead
to bugs, misunderstandings, and a general lack of robustness. The point
of enabling options like -Wimplicit-fallthrough is to prevent human error
and aid developers in spotting bugs before their code is even built/
submitted/committed, therefore eliminating classes of bugs. So, in order
to really accomplish this, we should, and can, move in the direction of
addressing any error-prone scenarios and get rid of the unintentional
fallthrough bug-class in the kernel, entirely, even if there is some minor
redundancy. Better to have explicit case-ending statements than continue to
have exceptions where one must guess as to the right result. The compiler
will eliminate any actual redundancy.

The code in binfmt_elf.c is differnt from the rest of the code that
processes siginfo, as it sends siginfo from a kernel buffer to a file
rather than from kernel memory to userspace buffers. To remove it's
use of set_fs the code needs some different siginfo helpers.
Add the helper copy_siginfo_to_external to copy from the kernel's
internal siginfo layout to a buffer in the siginfo layout that
userspace expects.
Modify fill_siginfo_note to use copy_siginfo_to_external instead of
set_fs and copy_siginfo_to_user.

My recent to change to only use force_sig for a synchronous events
wound up breaking signal reception cifs and drbd. I had overlooked
the fact that by default kthreads start out with all signals set to
SIG_IGN. So a change I thought was safe turned out to have made it
impossible for those kernel thread to catch their signals.
Reverting the work on force_sig is a bad idea because what the code
was doing was very much a misuse of force_sig. As the way force_sig
ultimately allowed the signal to happen was to change the signal
handler to SIG_DFL. Which after the first signal will allow userspace
to send signals to these kernel threads. At least for
wake_ack_receiver in drbd that does not appear actively wrong.
So correct this problem by adding allow_kernel_signal that will allow
signals whose siginfo reports they were sent by the kernel through,
but will not allow userspace generated signals, and update cifs and
drbd to call allow_kernel_signal in an appropriate place so that their
thread can receive this signal.
Fixing things this way ensures that userspace won't be able to send
signals and cause problems, that it is clear which signals the
threads are expecting to receive, and it guarantees that nothing
else in the system will be affected.
This change was partly inspired by similar cifs and drbd patches that
added allow_signal.

Change restore_user_sigmask() to accept the additional "interrupted"

update the callers.

I have looked at the other callers of siginmask and they all appear to
in locations where sig can not be zero.
I have looked at the code generation of adding an extra test against
zero and gcc was able with a simple decrement instruction to combine
the two tests together. So the at most adding this test cost a single
cpu cycle. In practice that decrement instruction was already present
as part of the mask comparison, so the only change was when the
instruction was executed.
So given that it is cheap, and obviously correct to update siginmask
to verify the signal is not zero. Fix this issue there to avoid any
future problems.

Refactor the logic to restore the sigmask before the syscall
returns into an api.
This is useful for versions of syscalls that pass in the
sigmask and expect the current->sigmask to be changed during
the execution and restored after the execution of the syscall.
With the advent of new y2038 syscalls in the subsequent patches,
we add two more new versions of the syscalls (for pselect, ppoll
and io_pgetevents) in addition to the existing native and compat
versions. Adding such an api reduces the logic that would need to
be replicated otherwise.

Refactor reading sigset from userspace and updating sigmask
into an api.
This is useful for versions of syscalls that pass in the
sigmask and expect the current->sigmask to be changed during,
and restored after, the execution of the syscall.

Note that the calls to sigprocmask() ignored the return value
from the api as the function only returns an error on an invalid
first argument that is hardcoded at these call sites.
The updated logic uses set_current_blocked() instead.

While fixing an out of bounds array access in known_siginfo_layout
reported by the kernel test robot it became apparent that the same bug
exists in siginfo_layout and affects copy_siginfo_from_user32.
The straight forward fix that makes guards against making this mistake
in the future and should keep the code size small is to just take an
unsigned signal number instead of a signed signal number, as I did to
fix known_siginfo_layout.

We reserve 128 bytes for struct siginfo but only use about 48 bytes on
64bit and 32 bytes on 32bit. Someday we might use more but it is unlikely
to be anytime soon.
Userspace seems content with just enough bytes of siginfo to implement
sigqueue. Or in the case of checkpoint/restart reinjecting signals
the kernel has sent.
Reducing the stack footprint and the work to copy siginfo around from
2 cachelines to 1 cachelines seems worth doing even if I don't have
benchmarks to show a performance difference.
