MIPS: Use async IPIs for arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()

2018-06-28T21:14:41+00:00

The current MIPS implementation of arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is
broken because it attempts to use synchronous IPIs despite the fact that
it may be run with interrupts disabled.

This means that when arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is invoked, for
example by the RCU CPU stall watchdog, we may:

  - Deadlock due to use of synchronous IPIs with interrupts disabled,
    causing the CPU that's attempting to generate the backtrace output
    to hang itself.

  - Not succeed in generating the desired output from remote CPUs.

  - Produce warnings about this from smp_call_function_many(), for
    example:

    ...

This patch switches MIPS' arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() to use async
IPIs & smp_call_function_single_async() in order to resolve this
problem. We ensure use of the pre-allocated call_single_data_t
structures is serialized by maintaining a cpumask indicating that
they're busy, and refusing to attempt to send an IPI when a CPU's bit is
set in this mask. This should only happen if a CPU hasn't responded to a
previous backtrace IPI - ie. if it's hung - and we print a warning to
the console in this case.

I've marked this for stable branches as far back as v4.9, to which it
applies cleanly. Strictly speaking the faulty MIPS implementation can be
traced further back to commit 856839b76836 ("MIPS: Add
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function") in v3.19, but kernel
versions v3.19 through v4.8 will require further work to backport due to
the rework performed in commit 9a01c3ed5cdb ("nmi_backtrace: add more
trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods").

MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()

2018-06-28T18:48:54+00:00

The generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() function calls show_regs() when a struct
pt_regs is available, and dump_stack() otherwise. If we were to make use
of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() with MIPS' current implementation of
show_regs() this would mean that we see only register data with no
accompanying stack information, in contrast with our current
implementation which calls dump_stack() regardless of whether register
state is available.

In preparation for making use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() to
implement arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), have our implementation of
show_regs() call dump_stack() and drop the explicit dump_stack() call in
arch_dump_stack() which is invoked by arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace().

This will allow the output we produce to remain the same after a later
patch switches to using nmi_cpu_backtrace(). It may mean that we produce
extra stack output in other uses of show_regs(), but this:

  1) Seems harmless.
  2) Is good for consistency between arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()
     and other users of show_regs().
  3) Matches the behaviour of the ARM & PowerPC architectures.

Marked for stable back to v4.9 as a prerequisite of the following patch
"MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()".

MIPS: Add ksig argument to rseq_{signal_deliver,handle_notify_resume}

2018-06-24T17:33:03+00:00

Commit 784e0300fe9f ("rseq: Avoid infinite recursion when delivering
SIGSEGV") added a new ksig argument to the rseq_signal_deliver() &
rseq_handle_notify_resume() functions, and was merged in v4.18-rc2.
Meanwhile MIPS support for restartable sequences was also merged in
v4.18-rc2 with commit 9ea141ad5471 ("MIPS: Add support for restartable
sequences"), and therefore didn't get updated for the API change.

This results in build failures like the following:

    CC      arch/mips/kernel/signal.o
  arch/mips/kernel/signal.c: In function 'handle_signal':
  arch/mips/kernel/signal.c:804:22: error: passing argument 1 of

Fix this by adding the ksig argument as was done for other architectures
in commit 784e0300fe9f ("rseq: Avoid infinite recursion when delivering
SIGSEGV").

MIPS: Add syscall detection for restartable sequences

2018-06-20T04:13:56+00:00

Syscalls are not allowed inside restartable sequences, so add a call to
rseq_syscall() at the very beginning of the system call exit path when
CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y. This will help us to detect whether there is a
syscall issued erroneously inside a restartable sequence.

MIPS: Add support for restartable sequences

2018-06-20T04:13:17+00:00

Implement support for restartable sequences on MIPS, which requires 3
simple things:

  - Call rseq_handle_notify_resume() on return to userspace if
    TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is set.

  - Call rseq_signal_deliver() to fixup the pre-signal stack frame when
    a signal is delivered whilst executing a restartable sequence
    critical section.

  - Select CONFIG_HAVE_RSEQ.

Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables

2018-06-14T03:21:18+00:00

The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler
support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler
supported.

That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case
now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support
directly.

HOWEVER.

It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong
stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file,
the sane stack protector configuration would look like

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
  CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y

and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes,
it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had
been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version
used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would
disable it in the new config, resulting in:

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
  CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with
the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing.

The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack
protector option, but also the strong one.  This does that by just
removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really
is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead
automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users).

This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their
choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes.
The end result would generally look like this:

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
  CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler
infrastructure, not the user selections.
