mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas

2017-07-02T16:12:47+00:00

commit 1be7107fbe18eed3e319a6c3e83c78254b693acb upstream.

Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing
into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which
is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping.
But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in
userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly
used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX]
which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN.

This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default
no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be
tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call
could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical,
unfortunatelly.

Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap
to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size
because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in
the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack
allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is
somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot.

One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace,
but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong
for some special case applications.  For now, add a kernel command line
option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units).

Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page:
because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a
stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point,
a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was
counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK
and strict non-overcommit mode.

Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard
gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start
(or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few
places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(),
and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

MIPS: ip27: Disable qlge driver in defconfig

2017-06-05T20:13:49+00:00

commit b617649468390713db1515ea79fc772d2eb897a8 upstream.

One of the last remaining failures in kernelci.org is for a gcc bug:

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c:4819:1: error: insn does not satisfy its constraints:
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c:4819:1: internal compiler error: in extract_constrain_insn, at recog.c:2190

This is apparently broken in gcc-6 but fixed in gcc-7, and I cannot
reproduce the problem here. However, it is clear that ip27_defconfig
does not actually need this driver as the platform has only PCI-X but
not PCIe, and the qlge adapter in turn is PCIe-only.

The driver was originally enabled in 2010 along with lots of other
drivers.

MIPS: OCTEON: Fix copy_from_user fault handling for large buffers

2017-06-05T20:13:49+00:00

commit 884b426917e4b3c85f33b382c792a94305dfdd62 upstream.

If copy_from_user is called with a large buffer (>= 128 bytes) and the
userspace buffer refers partially to unreadable memory, then it is
possible for Octeon's copy_from_user to report the wrong number of bytes
have been copied. In the case where the buffer size is an exact multiple
of 128 and the fault occurs in the last 64 bytes, copy_from_user will
report that all the bytes were copied successfully but leave some
garbage in the destination buffer.

The bug is in the main __copy_user_common loop in octeon-memcpy.S where
in the middle of the loop, src and dst are incremented by 128 bytes. The
l_exc_copy fault handler is used after this but that assumes that
"src < THREAD_BUADDR($28)". This is not the case if src has already been
incremented.

Fix by adding an extra fault handler which rewinds the src and dst
pointers 128 bytes before falling though to l_exc_copy.

Thanks to the pwritev test from the strace test suite for originally
highlighting this bug!

MIPS: Fix special case in 64 bit IP checksumming.

2017-06-05T20:13:49+00:00

commit 66fd848cadaa6be974a8c780fbeb328f0af4d3bd upstream.

For certain arguments such as saddr = 0xc0a8fd60, daddr = 0xc0a8fda1,
len = 80, proto = 17, sum = 0x7eae049d there will be a carry when
folding the intermediate 64 bit checksum to 32 bit but the code doesn't
add the carry back to the one's complement sum, thus an incorrect result
will be generated.

MIPS: 'make -s' should be silent

2017-06-05T20:13:44+00:00

commit 8c9b23ffb3f92ffa4cbe37b1bab4542586e0bfd1 upstream.

A clean mips64 build produces no output except for two lines:

  Checking missing-syscalls for N32
  Checking missing-syscalls for O32

On other architectures, there is no output at all, so let's do the
same here for the sake of build testing. The 'kecho' macro is used
to print the message on a normal build but skip it with 'make -s'.

KEYS: 64-bit MIPS needs to use compat_sys_keyctl for 32-bit userspace

2016-11-20T01:01:29+00:00

commit 20f06ed9f61a185c6dabd662c310bed6189470df upstream.

MIPS64 needs to use compat_sys_keyctl for 32-bit userspace rather than
calling sys_keyctl.  The latter will work in a lot of cases, thereby hiding
the issue.

MIPS: Adjust set_pte() SMP fix to handle R10000_LLSC_WAR

commit 128639395b2ceacc6a56a0141d0261012bfe04d3 upstream.

Update the recent changes to set_pte() that were added in 46011e6ea392
to handle R10000_LLSC_WAR, and format the assembly to match other areas
of the MIPS tree using the same WAR.

This also incorporates a patch recently sent in my Markos Chandras,
"Remove local LL/SC preprocessor variants", so that patch doesn't need
to be applied if this one is accepted.

MIPS: Fix restart of indirect syscalls

2016-01-22T21:40:08+00:00

commit e967ef022e00bb7c2e5b1a42007abfdd52055050 upstream.

When 32-bit MIPS userspace invokes a syscall indirectly via syscall(number,
arg1, ..., arg7), the kernel looks up the actual syscall based on the given
number, shifts the other arguments to the left, and jumps to the syscall.

If the syscall is interrupted by a signal and indicates it needs to be
restarted by the kernel (by returning ERESTARTNOINTR for example), the
syscall must be called directly, since the number is no longer the first
argument, and the other arguments are now staged for a direct call.

Before shifting the arguments, store the syscall number in pt_regs->regs[2].
This gets copied temporarily into pt_regs->regs[0] after the syscall returns.
If the syscall needs to be restarted, handle_signal()/do_signal() copies the
number back to pt_regs->reg[2], which ends up in $v0 once control returns to
userspace.
