Patch series "various improvements to the GUP interface", v2.
A series of fixes to simplify and improve the GUP interface with an eye to
providing groundwork to future improvements:-
* __access_remote_vm() and access_remote_vm() are functionally identical,
so make the former static such that in future we can potentially change
the external-facing implementation details of this function.
* Extend is_valid_gup_args() to cover the missing FOLL_TOUCH case, and
simplify things by defining INTERNAL_GUP_FLAGS to check against.
* Adjust __get_user_pages_locked() to explicitly treat a failure to pin any
pages as an error in all circumstances other than FOLL_NOWAIT being
specified, bringing it in line with the nommu implementation of this
function.
* (With many thanks to Arnd who suggested this in the first instance)
Update get_user_page_vma_remote() to explicitly only return a page or an
error, simplifying the interface and avoiding the questionable
IS_ERR_OR_NULL() pattern.
This patch (of 4):
access_remote_vm() passes through parameters to __access_remote_vm()
directly, so remove the __access_remote_vm() function from mm.h and use
access_remote_vm() in the one caller that needs it (ptrace_access_vm()).
This allows future adjustments to the GUP-internal __access_remote_vm()
function while keeping the access_remote_vm() function stable.

Introduce the extensible rseq ABI, where the feature size supported by
the kernel and the required alignment are communicated to user-space
through ELF auxiliary vectors.
This allows user-space to call rseq registration with a rseq_len of
either 32 bytes for the original struct rseq size (which includes
padding), or larger.
If rseq_len is larger than 32 bytes, then it must be large enough to
contain the feature size communicated to user-space through ELF
auxiliary vectors.

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.
By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.
As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).
Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:
freezer_do_not_count();
schedule();
freezer_count();
And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.
However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.
That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.
This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.
As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:
TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN
The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).
The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in ->jobctl.
With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

Pull ptrace_stop cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"While looking at the ptrace problems with PREEMPT_RT and the problems
Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite I
identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own
and move make resolving the other problems much simpler.
The biggest issue is the habit of the ptrace code to change
task->__state from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up
the tracee. No other code in the kernel does that and it is straight
forward to update signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary.
Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and
then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying
on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can
tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state.
The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in
task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for
the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as
serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that
direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake
ups and become an ordinary stop state.
The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers
for a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped
in the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved
register values of a task.
There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found
while looking at these issues.
One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit 57b6de08b5
("ptrace: Admit ptrace_stop can generate spuriuos SIGTRAPs"). This
makes a change that is technically user space visible, in the handling
of what happens to a tracee when a tracer dies unexpectedly. According
to our testing and our understanding of userspace nothing cares that
spurious SIGTRAPs can be generated in that case"

Currently ptrace_stop() / do_signal_stop() rely on the special states
TASK_TRACED and TASK_STOPPED resp. to keep unique state. That is, this
state exists only in task->__state and nowhere else.
There's two spots of bother with this:
- PREEMPT_RT has task->saved_state which complicates matters,
meaning task_is_{traced,stopped}() needs to check an additional
variable.
- An alternative freezer implementation that itself relies on a
special TASK state would loose TASK_TRACED/TASK_STOPPED and will
result in misbehaviour.
As such, add additional state to task->jobctl to track this state
outside of task->__state.
NOTE: this doesn't actually fix anything yet, just adds extra state.

Stop playing with tsk->__state to remove TASK_WAKEKILL while a ptrace
command is executing.
Instead remove TASK_WAKEKILL from the definition of TASK_TRACED, and
implement a new jobctl flag TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN. This new flag is set
in jobctl_freeze_task and cleared when ptrace_stop is awoken or in
jobctl_unfreeze_task (when ptrace_stop remains asleep).
In signal_wake_up add __TASK_TRACED to state along with TASK_WAKEKILL
when the wake up is for a fatal signal. Skip adding __TASK_TRACED
when TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN is not set. This has the same effect as
changing TASK_TRACED to __TASK_TRACED as all of the wake_ups that use
TASK_KILLABLE go through signal_wake_up.
Handle a ptrace_stop being called with a pending fatal signal.
Previously it would have been handled by schedule simply failing to
sleep. As TASK_WAKEKILL is no longer part of TASK_TRACED schedule
will sleep with a fatal_signal_pending. The code in signal_wake_up
guarantees that the code will be awaked by any fatal signal that
codes after TASK_TRACED is set.
Previously the __state value of __TASK_TRACED was changed to
TASK_RUNNING when woken up or back to TASK_TRACED when the code was
left in ptrace_stop. Now when woken up ptrace_stop now clears
JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN and when left sleeping ptrace_unfreezed_traced
clears JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN.

After ptrace_freeze_traced succeeds it is known that the tracee
has a __state value of __TASK_TRACED and that no __ptrace_unlink will
happen because the tracer is waiting for the tracee, and the tracee is
in ptrace_stop.
The function ptrace_freeze_traced can succeed at any point after
ptrace_stop has set TASK_TRACED and dropped siglock. The read_lock on
tasklist_lock only excludes ptrace_attach.
This means that the !current->ptrace which executes under a read_lock
of tasklist_lock will never see a ptrace_freeze_trace as the tracer
must have gone away before the tasklist_lock was taken and
ptrace_attach can not occur until the read_lock is dropped. As
ptrace_freeze_traced depends upon ptrace_attach running before it can
run that excludes ptrace_freeze_traced until __state is set to
TASK_RUNNING. This means that task_is_traced will fail in
ptrace_freeze_attach and ptrace_freeze_attached will fail.
On the current->ptrace branch of ptrace_stop which will be reached any
time after ptrace_freeze_traced has succeed it is known that __state
is __TASK_TRACED and schedule() will be called with that state.
Use a WARN_ON_ONCE to document that wait_task_inactive(TASK_TRACED)
should never fail. Remove the stale comment about may_ptrace_stop.
Strictly speaking this is not true because if PREEMPT_RT is enabled
wait_task_inactive can fail because __state can be changed. I don't
see this as a problem as the ptrace code is currently broken on
PREMPT_RT, and this is one of the issues. Failing and warning when
the assumptions of the code are broken is good.

The current implementation of PTRACE_KILL is buggy and has been for
many years as it assumes it's target has stopped in ptrace_stop. At a
quick skim it looks like this assumption has existed since ptrace
support was added in linux v1.0.
While PTRACE_KILL has been deprecated we can not remove it as
a quick search with google code search reveals many existing
programs calling it.
When the ptracee is not stopped at ptrace_stop some fields would be
set that are ignored except in ptrace_stop. Making the userspace
visible behavior of PTRACE_KILL a noop in those case.
As the usual rules are not obeyed it is not clear what the
consequences are of calling PTRACE_KILL on a running process.
Presumably userspace does not do this as it achieves nothing.
Replace the implementation of PTRACE_KILL with a simple
send_sig_info(SIGKILL) followed by a return 0. This changes the
observable user space behavior only in that PTRACE_KILL on a process
not stopped in ptrace_stop will also kill it. As that has always
been the intent of the code this seems like a reasonable change.

The last remaining implementation of arch_ptrace_attach is ia64's
ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs which was added at the end of 2007 in
commit aa91a2e900 ("[IA64] Synchronize RBS on PTRACE_ATTACH").
Reading the comments and examining the code ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs
has the sole purpose of saving registers to the stack when ptrace_attach
changes TASK_STOPPED to TASK_TRACED. In all other cases arch_ptrace_stop
takes care of the register saving.
In commit d79fdd6d96 ("ptrace: Clean transitions between TASK_STOPPED and TRACED")
modified ptrace_attach to wake up the thread and enter ptrace_stop normally even
when the thread starts out stopped.
This makes ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs completely unnecessary. So just
remove it.
I read through the code to verify that ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs is
unnecessary. What I found is that the code is quite dead.
Reading ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs it is easy to see that the it does
nothing unless __state == TASK_STOPPED.
Calling arch_ptrace_attach (aka ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs) after
ptrace_traceme it is easy to see that because we are talking about the
current process the value of __state is TASK_RUNNING. Which means
ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs does nothing.
The only other call of arch_ptrace_attach (aka
ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs) is after ptrace_attach.
If the task is running (and PTRACE_SEIZE is not specified), a SIGSTOP
is sent which results in do_signal_stop setting JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP on
the target task (as it is ptraced) and the target task stopping
in ptrace_stop with __state == TASK_TRACED.
If the task was already stopped then ptrace_attach sets
JOBCTL_TRAPPING and JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP, wakes it out of __TASK_STOPPED,
and waits until the JOBCTL_TRAPPING_BIT is clear. At which point
the task stops in ptrace_stop.
In both cases there are a couple of funning excpetions such as if the
traced task receiveds a SIGCONT, or is set a fatal signal.
However in all of those cases the tracee never stops in __state
TASK_STOPPED. Which is a long way of saying that ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs
is guaranteed never to do anything.

Setting PTRACE_O_SUSPEND_SECCOMP is supposed to be a highly privileged
operation because it allows the tracee to completely bypass all seccomp
filters on kernels with CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y. It is only supposed to
be settable by a process with global CAP_SYS_ADMIN, and only if that
process is not subject to any seccomp filters at all.
However, while these permission checks were done on the PTRACE_SETOPTIONS
path, they were missing on the PTRACE_SEIZE path, which also sets
user-specified ptrace flags.
Move the permissions checks out into a helper function and let both
ptrace_attach() and ptrace_setoptions() call it.

Suppose we have 2 threads, the group-leader L and a sub-theread T,
both parked in ptrace_stop(). Debugger tries to resume both threads
and does
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, T);
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, L);
If the sub-thread T execs in between, the 2nd PTRACE_CONT doesn not
resume the old leader L, it resumes the post-exec thread T which was
actually now stopped in PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC. In this case the
PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC event is lost, and the tracer can't know that the
tracee changed its pid.
This patch makes ptrace() fail in this case until debugger does wait()
and consumes PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC which reports old_pid. This affects all
ptrace requests except the "asynchronous" PTRACE_INTERRUPT/KILL.
The patch doesn't add the new PTRACE_ option to not complicate the API,
and I _hope_ this won't cause any noticeable regression:
- If debugger uses PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC and the thread did an exec
and the tracer does a ptrace request without having consumed
the exec event, it's 100% sure that the thread the ptracer
thinks it is targeting does not exist anymore, or isn't the
same as the one it thinks it is targeting.
- To some degree this patch adds nothing new. In the scenario
above ptrace(L) can fail with -ESRCH if it is called after the
execing sub-thread wakes the leader up and before it "steals"
the leader's pid.

For userspace checkpoint and restore (C/R) a way of getting process state
containing RSEQ configuration is needed.
There are two ways this information is going to be used:
- to re-enable RSEQ for threads which had it enabled before C/R
- to detect if a thread was in a critical section during C/R
Since C/R preserves TLS memory and addresses RSEQ ABI will be restored
using the address registered before C/R.
Detection whether the thread is in a critical section during C/R is needed
to enforce behavior of RSEQ abort during C/R. Attaching with ptrace()
before registers are dumped itself doesn't cause RSEQ abort.
Restoring the instruction pointer within the critical section is
problematic because rseq_cs may get cleared before the control is passed
to the migrated application code leading to RSEQ invariants not being
preserved. C/R code will use RSEQ ABI address to find the abort handler
to which the instruction pointer needs to be set.
To achieve above goals expose the RSEQ ABI address and the signature value
with the new ptrace request PTRACE_GET_RSEQ_CONFIGURATION.
This new ptrace request can also be used by debuggers so they are aware
of stops within restartable sequences in progress.

Despite a comment that said that page fault accounting would be charged to
whatever task_struct* was passed into __access_remote_vm(), the tsk
argument was actually unused.
Making page fault accounting actually use this task struct is quite a
project, so there is no point in keeping the tsk argument.
Delete both the comment, and the argument.

Pull core entry/exit updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of updates for entry/exit handling:
- More generalization of entry/exit functionality
- The consolidation work to reclaim TIF flags on x86 and also for
non-x86 specific TIF flags which are solely relevant for syscall
related work and have been moved into their own storage space. The
x86 specific part had to be merged in to avoid a major conflict.
- The TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL work which replaces the inefficient signal
delivery mode of task work and results in an impressive performance
improvement for io_uring. The non-x86 consolidation of this is
going to come seperate via Jens.
- The selective syscall redirection facility which provides a clean
and efficient way to support the non-Linux syscalls of WINE by
catching them at syscall entry and redirecting them to the user
space emulation. This can be utilized for other purposes as well
and has been designed carefully to avoid overhead for the regular
fastpath. This includes the core changes and the x86 support code.
- Simplification of the context tracking entry/exit handling for the
users of the generic entry code which guarantee the proper ordering
and protection.
- Preparatory changes to make the generic entry code accomodate S390
specific requirements which are mostly related to their syscall
restart mechanism"
