ARM: 8683/1: ARM32: Support mremap() for sigpage/vDSO

2017-06-21T12:02:58+00:00

CRIU restores application mappings on the same place where they
were before Checkpoint. That means, that we need to move vDSO
and sigpage during restore on exactly the same place where
they were before C/R.

Make mremap() code update mm->context.{sigpage,vdso} pointers
during VMA move. Sigpage is used for landing after handling
a signal - if the pointer is not updated during moving, the
application might crash on any signal after mremap().

vDSO pointer on ARM32 is used only for setting auxv at this moment,
update it during mremap() in case of future usage.

Without those updates, current work of CRIU on ARM32 is not reliable.
Historically, we error Checkpointing if we find vDSO page on ARM32
and suggest user to disable CONFIG_VDSO.
But that's not correct - it goes from x86 where signal processing
is ended in vDSO blob. For arm32 it's sigpage, which is not disabled
with `CONFIG_VDSO=n'.

Looks like C/R was working by luck - because userspace on ARM32 at
this moment always sets SA_RESTORER.

ARM: 8673/1: Fix __show_regs output timestamps

2017-05-23T16:26:38+00:00

Multiple line formats are not preferred as the second and
subsequent lines may not have timestamps.

Lacking timestamps makes reading the output a bit difficult.
This also makes arm/arm64 output more similar.

Create a trivial placeholder  file that just

bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

ARM: use simpler API for random address requests

2016-10-11T22:06:32+00:00

Currently, all callers to randomize_range() set the length to 0 and
calculate end by adding a constant to the start address.  We can simplify
the API to remove a bunch of needless checks and variables.

Use the new randomize_addr(start, range) call to set the requested
address.

ARM: save and reset the address limit when entering an exception

2016-07-07T15:01:01+00:00

When we enter an exception, the current address limit should not apply
to the exception context: if the exception context wishes to access
kernel space via the user accessors (eg, perf code), it must explicitly
request such access.

ARM: get rid of horrible (unsigned int )(regs + 1)

2016-06-22T18:55:05+00:00

Get rid of the horrible "*(unsigned int *)(regs + 1)" to get at the
parent context domain access register value, instead using the newly
introduced svc_pt_regs structure.

vdso: make arch_setup_additional_pages wait for mmap_sem for write killable

2016-05-24T00:04:14+00:00

most architectures are relying on mmap_sem for write in their
arch_setup_additional_pages.  If the waiting task gets killed by the oom
killer it would block oom_reaper from asynchronous address space reclaim
and reduce the chances of timely OOM resolving.  Wait for the lock in
the killable mode and return with EINTR if the task got killed while
waiting.

exit_thread: accept a task parameter to be exited

2016-05-21T00:58:30+00:00

We need to call exit_thread from copy_process in a fail path.  So make it
accept task_struct as a parameter.

[v2]
* s390: exit_thread_runtime_instr doesn't make sense to be called for
  non-current tasks.
* arm: fix the comment in vfp_thread_copy
* change 'me' to 'tsk' for task_struct
* now we can change only archs that actually have exit_thread
