3733596c40 audit: log the audit_names record type
commit d3aea84a4a upstream.

...to make it clear what the intent behind each record's operation was.

In many cases you can infer this, based on the context of the syscall
and the result. In other cases it's not so obvious. For instance, in
the case where you have a file being renamed over another, you'll have
two different records with the same filename but different inode info.
By logging this information we can clearly tell which one was created
and which was deleted.

This fixes what was broken in commit bfcec708.
Commit 79f6530c should also be backported to stable v3.7+.

24dccf86dd audit: fix mq_open and mq_unlink to add the MQ root as a hidden parent audit_names record
commit 79f6530cb5 upstream.

The old audit PATH records for mq_open looked like this:

  type=PATH msg=audit(1366282323.982:869): item=1 name=(null) inode=6777
  dev=00:0c mode=041777 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00
  obj=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023
  type=PATH msg=audit(1366282323.982:869): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=26732
  dev=00:0c mode=0100700 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00
  obj=staff_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023

...with the audit related changes that went into 3.7, they now look like this:

  type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=2 name=(null) inode=66655
  dev=00:0c mode=0100700 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00
  obj=staff_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023
  type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=1 name=(null) inode=6926
  dev=00:0c mode=041777 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00
  obj=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023
  type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=0 name="test_mq"

Both of these look wrong to me.  As Steve Grubb pointed out:

 "What we need is 1 PATH record that identifies the MQ.  The other PATH
  records probably should not be there."

Fix it to record the mq root as a parent, and flag it such that it
should be hidden from view when the names are logged, since the root of
the mq filesystem isn't terribly interesting.  With this change, we get
a single PATH record that looks more like this:

  type=PATH msg=audit(1368021604.836:484): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=16914
  dev=00:0c mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00
  obj=unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s0

In order to do this, a new audit_inode_parent_hidden() function is
added.  If we do it this way, then we avoid having the existing callers
of audit_inode needing to do any sort of flag conversion if auditing is
inactive.

d6770065f9 audit: use nlmsg_len() to get message payload length
commit 4d8fe7376a upstream.

Using the nlmsg_len member of the netlink header to test if the message
is valid is wrong as it includes the size of the netlink header itself.
Thereby allowing to send short netlink messages that pass those checks.

Use nlmsg_len() instead to test for the right message length. The result
of nlmsg_len() is guaranteed to be non-negative as the netlink message
already passed the checks of nlmsg_ok().

Also switch to min_t() to please checkpatch.pl.

b1427212a6 audit: printk USER_AVC messages when audit isn't enabled
commit 0868a5e150 upstream.

When the audit=1 kernel parameter is absent and auditd is not running,
AUDIT_USER_AVC messages are being silently discarded.

AUDIT_USER_AVC messages should be sent to userspace using printk(), as
mentioned in the commit message of 4a4cd633 ("AUDIT: Optimise the
audit-disabled case for discarding user messages").

When audit_enabled is 0, audit_receive_msg() discards all user messages
except for AUDIT_USER_AVC messages. However, audit_log_common_recv_msg()
refuses to allocate an audit_buffer if audit_enabled is 0. The fix is to
special case AUDIT_USER_AVC messages in both functions.

It looks like commit 50397bd1 ("[AUDIT] clean up audit_receive_msg()")
introduced this bug.

67b51f87ef PM / hibernate: Avoid overflow in hibernate_preallocate_memory()
commit fd432b9f8c upstream.

When system has a lot of highmem (e.g. 16GiB using a 32 bits kernel),
the code to calculate how much memory we need to preallocate in
normal zone may cause overflow. As Leon has analysed:

 It looks that during computing 'alloc' variable there is overflow:
 alloc = (3943404 - 1970542) - 1978280 = -5418 (signed)
 And this function goes to err_out.

Fix this by avoiding that overflow.

4501cfd0e3 alarmtimer: return EINVAL instead of ENOTSUPP if rtcdev doesn't exist
commit 98d6f4dd84 upstream.

Fedora Ruby maintainer reported latest Ruby doesn't work on Fedora Rawhide
on ARM. (http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9008)

Because of, commit 1c6b39ad3f (alarmtimers: Return -ENOTSUPP if no
RTC device is present) intruduced to return ENOTSUPP when
clock_get{time,res} can't find a RTC device. However this is incorrect.

First, ENOTSUPP isn't exported to userland (ENOTSUP or EOPNOTSUP are the
closest userland equivlents).

Second, Posix and Linux man pages agree that clock_gettime and
clock_getres should return EINVAL if clk_id argument is invalid.
While the arugment that the clockid is valid, but just not supported
on this hardware could be made, this is just a technicality that
doesn't help userspace applicaitons, and only complicates error
handling.

Thus, this patch changes the code to use EINVAL.

d389d610b1 exec/ptrace: fix get_dumpable() incorrect tests
commit d049f74f2d upstream.

The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean.  Most users of the
function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than
SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0).  The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a
protected state.  Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two
places fixed in this patch.

Wrong logic:
    if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ }

Correct logic:
    if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ }

Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a
user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to
that user.  (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.)

The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(),
which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

65b4037862 perf/ftrace: Fix paranoid level for enabling function tracer
commit 12ae030d54 upstream.

The current default perf paranoid level is "1" which has
"perf_paranoid_kernel()" return false, and giving any operations that
use it, access to normal users. Unfortunately, this includes function
tracing and normal users should not be allowed to enable function
tracing by default.

The proper level is defined at "-1" (full perf access), which
"perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" will only give access to. Use that
check instead for enabling function tracing.

e895dad0a5 sched, idle: Fix the idle polling state logic
commit ea81174789 upstream.

Mike reported that commit 7d1a9417 ("x86: Use generic idle loop")
regressed several workloads and caused excessive reschedule
interrupts.

The patch in question failed to notice that the x86 code had an
inverted sense of the polling state versus the new generic code (x86:
default polling, generic: default !polling).

Fix the two prominent x86 mwait based idle drivers and introduce a few
new generic polling helpers (fixing the wrong smp_mb__after_clear_bit
usage).

Also switch the idle routines to using tif_need_resched() which is an
immediate TIF_NEED_RESCHED test as opposed to need_resched which will
end up being slightly different.

The PPC64 people noticed a missing memory barrier and crufty old

When the architecture implements local_t using atomic_long_t there
will be double barriers issued; but short of introducing more
conditional barrier primitives this is the best we can do.

The out-of-bounds access happens on 'parser->buffer[parser->idx] = 0;'

Although the crash happened in ftrace_regex_open() the real bug
occurred in trace_get_user() where there's an incrementation to
parser->idx without a check against the size. The way it is triggered
is if userspace sends in 128 characters (EVENT_BUF_SIZE + 1), the loop
that reads the last character stores it and then breaks out because
there is no more characters. Then the last character is read to determine
what to do next, and the index is incremented without checking size.

Then the caller of trace_get_user() usually nulls out the last character
with a zero, but since the index is equal to the size, it writes a nul
character after the allocated space, which can corrupt memory.

Luckily, only root user has write access to this file.

b5b02b1406 clockevents: Sanitize ticks to nsec conversion
commit 97b9410643 upstream.

Marc Kleine-Budde pointed out, that commit 77cc982 "clocksource: use
clockevents_config_and_register() where possible" caused a regression
for some of the converted subarchs.

The reason is, that the clockevents core code converts the minimal
hardware tick delta to a nanosecond value for core internal
usage. This conversion is affected by integer math rounding loss, so
the backwards conversion to hardware ticks will likely result in a
value which is less than the configured hardware limitation. The
affected subarchs used their own workaround (SIGH!) which got lost in
the conversion.

The solution for the issue at hand is simple: adding evt->mult - 1 to
the shifted value before the integer divison in the core conversion
function takes care of it. But this only works for the case where for
the scaled math mult/shift pair "mult <= 1 << shift" is true. For the
case where "mult > 1 << shift" we can apply the rounding add only for
the minimum delta value to make sure that the backward conversion is
not less than the given hardware limit. For the upper bound we need to
omit the rounding add, because the backwards conversion is always
larger than the original latch value. That would violate the upper
bound of the hardware device.

Though looking closer at the details of that function reveals another
bogosity: The upper bounds check is broken as well. Checking for a
resulting "clc" value greater than KTIME_MAX after the conversion is
pointless. The conversion does:

      u64 clc = (latch << evt->shift) / evt->mult;

So there is no sanity check for (latch << evt->shift) exceeding the
64bit boundary. The latch argument is "unsigned long", so on a 64bit
arch the handed in argument could easily lead to an unnoticed shift
overflow. With the above rounding fix applied the calculation before
the divison is:

       u64 clc = (latch << evt->shift) + evt->mult - 1;

So we need to make sure, that neither the shift nor the rounding add
is overflowing the u64 boundary.

[ukl: move assignment to rnd after eventually changing mult, fix build
 issue and correct comment with the right math]

5be794dc4b cgroup: fix to break the while loop in cgroup_attach_task() correctly
commit ea84753c98 upstream.

Both Anjana and Eunki reported a stall in the while_each_thread loop
in cgroup_attach_task().

It's because, when we attach a single thread to a cgroup, if the cgroup
is exiting or is already in that cgroup, we won't break the loop.

If the task is already in the cgroup, the bug can lead to another thread
being attached to the cgroup unexpectedly:

  # echo 5207 > tasks
  # cat tasks
  5207
  # echo 5207 > tasks
  # cat tasks
  5207
  5215

What's worse, if the task to be attached isn't the leader of the thread
group, we might never exit the loop, hence cpu stall. Thanks for Oleg's
analysis.

This bug was introduced by commit 081aa458c3
("cgroup: consolidate cgroup_attach_task() and cgroup_attach_proc()")

[ lizf: - fixed the first continue, pointed out by Oleg,
        - rewrote changelog. ]

("irq: Sanitize invoke_softirq") converted irq exit
calls of do_softirq() to __do_softirq() on all architectures,
assuming it was only used there for its irq disablement
properties.

But as a side effect, the softirqs processed in the end
of the hardirq are always called on the inline current
stack that is used by irq_exit() instead of the softirq
stack provided by the archs that override do_softirq().

The result is mostly safe if the architecture runs irq_exit()
on a separate irq stack because then softirqs are processed
on that same stack that is near empty at this stage (assuming
hardirq aren't nesting).

Otherwise irq_exit() runs in the task stack and so does the softirq
too. The interrupted call stack can be randomly deep already and
the softirq can dig through it even further. To add insult to the
injury, this softirq can be interrupted by a new hardirq, maximizing
the chances for a stack overrun as reported in powerpc for example:

Since this is a regression, this patch proposes a minimalistic
and low-risk solution by blindly forcing the hardirq exit processing of
softirqs on the softirq stack. This way we should reduce significantly
the opportunities for task stack overflow dug by softirqs.

Longer term solutions may involve extending the hardirq stack coverage to
irq_exit(), etc...

3ed3690eac audit: fix endless wait in audit_log_start()
commit 8ac1c8d5de upstream.

After commit 829199197a ("kernel/audit.c: avoid negative sleep
durations") audit emitters will block forever if userspace daemon cannot
handle backlog.

After the timeout the waiting loop turns into busy loop and runs until
daemon dies or returns back to work.  This is a minimal patch for that
bug.

51f5294797 sched/fair: Fix small race where child->se.parent,cfs_rq might point to invalid ones
commit 6c9a27f5da upstream.

There is a small race between copy_process() and cgroup_attach_task()
where child->se.parent,cfs_rq points to invalid (old) ones.

        parent doing fork()      | someone moving the parent to another cgroup
  -------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
    copy_process()
      + dup_task_struct()
        -> parent->se is copied to child->se.
           se.parent,cfs_rq of them point to old ones.

                                     cgroup_attach_task()
                                       + cgroup_task_migrate()
                                         -> parent->cgroup is updated.
                                       + cpu_cgroup_attach()
                                         + sched_move_task()
                                           + task_move_group_fair()
                                             +- set_task_rq()
                                                -> se.parent,cfs_rq of parent
                                                   are updated.

      + cgroup_fork()
        -> parent->cgroup is copied to child->cgroup. (*1)
      + sched_fork()
        + task_fork_fair()
          -> se.parent,cfs_rq of child are accessed
             while they point to old ones. (*2)

In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and cause a panic,
because it's new cgroup's refcount that is incremented at (*1),
so the old cgroup(and related data) can be freed before (*2).

In fact, a panic caused by this bug was originally caught in RHEL6.4.

013b14c306 sched/cputime: Do not scale when utime == 0
commit 5a8e01f8fa upstream.

scale_stime() silently assumes that stime < rtime, otherwise
when stime == rtime and both values are big enough (operations
on them do not fit in 32 bits), the resulting scaling stime can
be bigger than rtime. In consequence utime = rtime - stime
results in negative value.

User space visible symptoms of the bug are overflowed TIME
values on ps/top, for example:

 $ ps aux | grep rcu
 root         8  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        S    12:42   0:00 [rcuc/0]

or overflowed utime values read directly from /proc/$PID/stat

63946e8616 timekeeping: Fix HRTICK related deadlock from ntp lock changes
commit 7bd3601446 upstream.

Gerlando Falauto reported that when HRTICK is enabled, it is
possible to trigger system deadlocks. These were hard to
reproduce, as HRTICK has been broken in the past, but seemed
to be connected to the timekeeping_seq lock.

Since seqlock/seqcount's aren't supported w/ lockdep, I added
some extra spinlock based locking and triggered the following
lockdep output:

[   15.849182] ntpd/4062 is trying to acquire lock:
[   15.849765]  (&(&pool->lock)->rlock){..-...}, at: [<ffffffff810aa9b5>] __queue_work+0x145/0x480
[   15.850051]
[   15.850051] but task is already holding lock:
[   15.850051]  (timekeeper_lock){-.-.-.}, at: [<ffffffff810df6df>] do_adjtimex+0x7f/0x100

<snip>

[   15.850051] Chain exists of: &(&pool->lock)->rlock --> &p->pi_lock --> timekeeper_lock
[   15.850051]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[   15.850051]
[   15.850051]        CPU0                    CPU1
[   15.850051]        ----                    ----
[   15.850051]   lock(timekeeper_lock);
[   15.850051]                                lock(&p->pi_lock);
[   15.850051] lock(timekeeper_lock);
[   15.850051] lock(&(&pool->lock)->rlock);
[   15.850051]
[   15.850051]  *** DEADLOCK ***

The deadlock was introduced by 06c017fdd4 ("timekeeping:
Hold timekeepering locks in do_adjtimex and hardpps") in 3.10

This patch avoids this deadlock, by moving the call to
schedule_delayed_work() outside of the timekeeper lock
critical section.

f608ebd760 pidns: fix vfork() after unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)
commit e79f525e99 upstream.

Commit 8382fcac1b ("pidns: Outlaw thread creation after
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)") nacks CLONE_VM if the forking process unshared
pid_ns, this obviously breaks vfork:

	int main(void)
	{
		assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID) == 0);
		assert(vfork() >= 0);
		_exit(0);
		return 0;
	}

fails without this patch.

Change this check to use CLONE_SIGHAND instead.  This also forbids
CLONE_THREAD automatically, and this is what the comment implies.

We could probably even drop CLONE_SIGHAND and use CLONE_THREAD, but it
would be safer to not do this.  The current check denies CLONE_SIGHAND
implicitely and there is no reason to change this.

Eric said "CLONE_SIGHAND is fine.  CLONE_THREAD would be even better.
Having shared signal handling between two different pid namespaces is
the case that we are fundamentally guarding against."

The issue is that when the task group leader of an init process exits
before other tasks of the init process when the init process finally
exits it will be a secondary task sleeping in zap_pid_ns_processes and
waiting to wake up when the number of hashed pids drops to two.  This
case waits forever as free_pid only sends a wake up when the number of
hashed pids drops to 1.

To correct this the simple strategy of sending a possibly unncessary
wake up when the number of hashed pids drops to 2 is adopted.

Sending one extraneous wake up is relatively harmless, at worst we
waste a little cpu time in the rare case when a pid namespace
appropaches exiting.

We can detect the case when the pid namespace drops to just two pids
hashed race free in free_pid.

Dereferencing pid_ns->child_reaper with the pidmap_lock held is safe
without out the tasklist_lock because it is guaranteed that the
detach_pid will be called on the child_reaper before it is freed and
detach_pid calls __change_pid which calls free_pid which takes the
pidmap_lock.  __change_pid only calls free_pid if this is the
last use of the pid.  For a thread that is not the thread group leader
the threads pid will only ever have one user because a threads pid
is not allowed to be the pid of a process, of a process group or
a session.  For a thread that is a thread group leader all of
the other threads of that process will be reaped before it is allowed
for the thread group leader to be reaped ensuring there will only
be one user of the threads pid as a process pid.  Furthermore
because the thread is the init process of a pid namespace all of the
other processes in the pid namespace will have also been already freed
leading to the fact that the pid will not be used as a session pid or
a process group pid for any other running process.

73e2c2b7c1 uprobes: Fix utask->depth accounting in handle_trampoline()
commit 878b5a6efd upstream.

Currently utask->depth is simply the number of allocated/pending
return_instance's in uprobe_task->return_instances list.

handle_trampoline() should decrement this counter every time we
handle/free an instance, but due to typo it does this only if
->chained == T. This means that in the likely case this counter
is never decremented and the probed task can't report more than
MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH events.

6ff96f7340 workqueue: cond_resched() after processing each work item
commit b22ce2785d upstream.

If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU.
This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is
waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine.  Such
self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging
the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for
that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from
happening on all other CPUs.  The two would deadlock.

Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around
scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one
port may exclude command processing from other ports.  With the right
timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying
to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has
an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to
stop_machine.

Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.

b3772c81e3 timer_list: correct the iterator for timer_list
commit 84a78a6504 upstream.

Correct an issue with /proc/timer_list reported by Holger.

When reading from the proc file with a sufficiently small buffer, 2k so
not really that small, there was one could get hung trying to read the
file a chunk at a time.

The timer_list_start function failed to account for the possibility that
the offset was adjusted outside the timer_list_next.

f05e999f16 ftrace: Check module functions being traced on reload
commit 8c4f3c3fa9 upstream.

There's been a nasty bug that would show up and not give much info.
The bug displayed the following warning:

 ---[ end trace 793179526ee09b2c ]---

It was finally narrowed down to unloading a module that was being traced.

It was actually more than that. When functions are being traced, there's
a table of all functions that have a ref count of the number of active
tracers attached to that function. When a function trace callback is
registered to a function, the function's record ref count is incremented.
When it is unregistered, the function's record ref count is decremented.
If an inconsistency is detected (ref count goes below zero) the above
warning is shown and the function tracing is permanently disabled until
reboot.

The ftrace callback ops holds a hash of functions that it filters on
(and/or filters off). If the hash is empty, the default means to filter
all functions (for the filter_hash) or to disable no functions (for the
notrace_hash).

When a module is unloaded, it frees the function records that represent
the module functions. These records exist on their own pages, that is
function records for one module will not exist on the same page as
function records for other modules or even the core kernel.

Now when a module unloads, the records that represents its functions are
freed. When the module is loaded again, the records are recreated with
a default ref count of zero (unless there's a callback that traces all
functions, then they will also be traced, and the ref count will be
incremented).

The problem is that if an ftrace callback hash includes functions of the
module being unloaded, those hash entries will not be removed. If the
module is reloaded in the same location, the hash entries still point
to the functions of the module but the module's ref counts do not reflect
that.

With the help of Steve and Joern, we found a reproducer:

 Using uinput module and uinput_release function.

 cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 modprobe uinput
 echo uinput_release > set_ftrace_filter
 echo function > current_tracer
 rmmod uinput
 modprobe uinput
 # check /proc/modules to see if loaded in same addr, otherwise try again
 echo nop > current_tracer

 [BOOM]

The above loads the uinput module, which creates a table of functions that
can be traced within the module.

We add uinput_release to the filter_hash to trace just that function.

Enable function tracincg, which increments the ref count of the record
associated to uinput_release.

Remove uinput, which frees the records including the one that represents
uinput_release.

Load the uinput module again (and make sure it's at the same address).
This recreates the function records all with a ref count of zero,
including uinput_release.

Disable function tracing, which will decrement the ref count for uinput_release
which is now zero because of the module removal and reload, and we have
a mismatch (below zero ref count).

The solution is to check all currently tracing ftrace callbacks to see if any
are tracing any of the module's functions when a module is loaded (it already does
that with callbacks that trace all functions). If a callback happens to have
a module function being traced, it increments that records ref count and starts
tracing that function.

There may be a strange side effect with this, where tracing module functions
on unload and then reloading a new module may have that new module's functions
being traced. This may be something that confuses the user, but it's not
a big deal. Another approach is to disable all callback hashes on module unload,
but this leaves some ftrace callbacks that may not be registered, but can
still have hashes tracing the module's function where ftrace doesn't know about
it. That situation can cause the same bug. This solution solves that case too.
Another benefit of this solution, is it is possible to trace a module's
function on unload and load.
