commit 84d77d3f06e7e8dea057d10e8ec77ad71f721be3 upstream.

It is the reasonable expectation that if an executable file is not
readable there will be no way for a user without special privileges to
read the file.  This is enforced in ptrace_attach but if ptrace
is already attached before exec there is no enforcement for read-only
executables.

As the only way to read such an mm is through access_process_vm
spin a variant called ptrace_access_vm that will fail if the
target process is not being ptraced by the current process, or
the current process did not have sufficient privileges when ptracing
began to read the target processes mm.

In the ptrace implementations replace access_process_vm by
ptrace_access_vm.  There remain several ptrace sites that still use
access_process_vm as they are reading the target executables
instructions (for kernel consumption) or register stacks.  As such it
does not appear necessary to add a permission check to those calls.

This bug has always existed in Linux.

<title>MIPS: Stacktrace: Fix microMIPS stack unwinding on big endian systems</title>

commit 41885b02127c7ae169dc94542de4a8eed175495a upstream.

The stack unwinding code uses the mips_instuction union to decode the
instructions it finds. That union uses the __BITFIELD_FIELD macro to
reorder depending on endianness. The stack unwinding code always places
16bit instructions in halfword 1 of the union. This makes the union
accesses correct for little endian systems. Similarly, 32bit
instructions are reordered such that they are correct for little endian
systems. This handling leaves unwinding the stack on big endian systems
broken, as the mips_instruction union will then look for the fields in
the wrong halfword.

To fix this, use a logical shift to place the 16bit instruction into the
correct position in the word field of the union. Use the same shifting
to order the 2 halfwords of 32bit instuctions. Then replace accesses to
the halfword with accesses to the shifted word.
In the case of the ADDIUS5 instruction, switch to using the
mm16_r5_format union member to avoid the need for a 16bit shift.

commit cea8cd498f4f1c30ea27e3664b3c671e495c4fce upstream.

When the immediate encoded in the instruction is accessed, it is sign
extended due to being a signed value being assigned to a signed integer.
The ISA specifies that this operation is an unsigned operation.
The sign extension leads us to incorrectly decode:

801e9c8e:       cbf1            sw      ra,68(sp)

As having an immediate of 1073741809.

Since the instruction format does not specify signed/unsigned, and this
is currently the only location to use this instuction format, change it
to an unsigned immediate.

<title>MIPS: microMIPS: Fix decoding of addiusp instruction</title>

<id>bbe0e8379947af45b6e4c79060e508ebce5bd7af</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a0ae2b08331a9882150618e0c81ea837e4a37ace upstream.

Commit 34c2f668d0f6 ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
added handling of microMIPS instructions to manipulate the stack
pointer. Unfortunately the decoding of the addiusp instruction was
incorrect, and performed a left shift by 2 bits to the raw immediate,
rather than decoding the immediate and then performing the shift, as
documented in the ISA.

This led to incomplete stack traces, due to incorrect frame sizes being
calculated. For example the instruction:
801faee0 &lt;do_sys_poll&gt;:
801faee0:       4e25            addiu   sp,sp,-952

As decoded by objdump, would be interpreted by the existing code as
having manipulated the stack pointer by +1096.

Fix this by changing the order of decoding the immediate and applying
the left shift. Also change to accessing the instuction through the
union to avoid the endianness problem of accesing halfword[0], which
will fail on big endian systems.

Cope with the special behaviour of immediates 0x0, 0x1, 0x1fe and 0x1ff
by XORing with 0x100 again if mod(immediate) &lt; 4. This logic was tested
with the following test code:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	unsigned int enc;
	int imm;

	for (enc = 0; enc &lt; 512; ++enc) {
		int tmp = enc &lt;&lt; 2;
		imm = -(signed short)(tmp | ((tmp &amp; 0x100) ? 0xfe00 : 0));
		unsigned short tmp = enc;
		tmp = (tmp ^ 0x100) - 0x100;
		if ((unsigned short)(tmp + 2) &lt; 4)
			tmp ^= 0x100;
		imm = -(signed short)(tmp &lt;&lt; 2);
		printf("%#x\t%d\t-&gt;\t(%#x\t%d)\t%#x\t%d\n",
		       enc, enc,
		       (short)tmp, (short)tmp,
		       imm, imm);
	}
	return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Which generates the table:

input encoding	-&gt;	tmp (matching manual)	frame size
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
0	0	-&gt;	(0x100		256)	0xfffffc00	-1024

commit b332fec0489295ee7a0aab4a89bd7257cd126f7f upstream.

The addiusp instruction uses the pool16d opcode, with bit 0 of the
immediate set. The test for the addiusp opcode erroneously did a logical
and of the immediate with mm_addiusp_func, which has value 1, so this
test always passes when the immediate is non-zero.

Fix the test by replacing the logical and with a bitwise and.

commit 11887ed172a6960673f130dad8f8fb42778f64d7 upstream.

Commit 34c2f668d0f6b ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
added fairly broken support for handling 16bit microMIPS instructions in
get_frame_info(). It adjusts the instruction pointer by 16bits in the
case of a 16bit sp move instruction, but not any other 16bit
instruction.

Commit b6c7a324df37 ("MIPS: Fix get_frame_info() handling of microMIPS
function size") goes some way to fixing get_frame_info() to iterate over
microMIPS instuctions, but the instruction pointer is still manipulated
using a postincrement, and is of union mips_instruction type. Since the
union is sized to the largest member (a word), but microMIPS
instructions are a mix of halfword and word sizes, the function does not
always iterate correctly, ending up misaligned with the instruction
stream and interpreting it incorrectly.

Since the instruction modifying the stack pointer is usually the first
in the function, that one is usually handled correctly. But the
instruction which saves the return address to the sp is some variable
number of instructions into the frame and is frequently missed due to
not being on a word boundary, leading to incomplete walking of the
stack.

Fix this by incrementing the instruction pointer based on the size of
the previously decoded instruction (&amp; remove the hack introduced by
commit 34c2f668d0f6b ("MIPS: microMIPS: Add unaligned access support.")
which adjusts the instruction pointer in the case of a 16bit sp move
instruction, but not any other).

Commit 078a55fc824c1 ("Delete __cpuinit/__CPUINIT usage from MIPS code")
removed our __CPUINIT directives, so now the ".previous" directives
are superfluous.  Remove them.

commit 4f32a39d49b25eaa66d2420f1f03d371ea4cd906 upstream.

The sys_exit trace event takes a single return value for the system
call, which MIPS passes the value of the $v0 (result) register, however
MIPS returns positive error codes in $v0 with $a3 specifying that $v0
contains an error code. As a result erroring system calls are traced
returning positive error numbers that can't always be distinguished from
success.

Use regs_return_value() to negate the error code if $a3 is set.

<title>MIPS: Send SIGILL for BPOSGE32 in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'</title>

commit 7b82c1058ac1f8f8b9f2b8786b1f710a57a870a8 upstream.

Fix commit e50c0a8fa60d ("Support the MIPS32 / MIPS64 DSP ASE.") and
send SIGILL rather than SIGBUS whenever an unimplemented BPOSGE32 DSP
ASE instruction has been encountered in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'
as our Reserved Instruction exception handler would in response to an
attempt to actually execute the instruction.  Sending SIGBUS only makes
sense for the unaligned PC case, since moved to `__compute_return_epc'.
Adjust function documentation accordingly, correct formatting and use
`pr_info' rather than `printk' as the other exit path already does.

instruction opcode, the handling of which has been added with the said
commit for EPC calculation in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'.
