x86/stacktrace: Remove the pointless ULONG_MAX marker

2019-04-14T17:58:27+00:00

Terminating the last trace entry with ULONG_MAX is a completely pointless
exercise and none of the consumers can rely on it because it's
inconsistently implemented across architectures. In fact quite some of the
callers remove the entry and adjust stack_trace.nr_entries afterwards.

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

2019-01-04T02:57:57+00:00

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

x86/stacktrace: Do not fail for ORC with regs on stack

2018-06-21T14:34:56+00:00

save_stack_trace_reliable now returns "non reliable" when there are
kernel pt_regs on stack. This means an interrupt or exception happened
somewhere down the route. It is a problem for the frame pointer
unwinder, because the frame might not have been set up yet when the irq
happened, so the unwinder might fail to unwind from the interrupted
function.

With ORC, this is not a problem, as ORC has out-of-band data. We can
find ORC data even for the IP in the interrupted function and always
unwind one level up reliably.

So lift the check to apply only when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y is enabled.

x86/stacktrace: Clarify the reliable success paths

2018-06-21T14:34:55+00:00

Make clear which path is for user tasks and for kthreads and idle
tasks. This will allow easier plug-in of the ORC unwinder in the next
patches.

Note that we added a check for unwind error to the top of the loop, so
that an error is returned also for user tasks (the 'goto success' would
skip the check after the loop otherwise).

x86/stacktrace: Remove STACKTRACE_DUMP_ONCE

2018-06-21T14:34:55+00:00

The stack unwinding can sometimes fail yet. Especially with the
generated debug info. So do not yell at users -- live patching (the only
user of this interface) will inform the user about the failure
gracefully.

And given this was the only user of the macro, remove the macro proper
too.

x86/stacktrace: Do not unwind after user regs

2018-06-21T14:34:55+00:00

Josh pointed out, that there is no way a frame can be after user regs.
So remove the last unwind and the check.

Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 page table isolation fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A couple of urgent fixes for PTI:

   - Fix a PTE mismatch between user and kernel visible mapping of the
     cpu entry area (differs vs. the GLB bit) and causes a TLB mismatch
     MCE on older AMD K8 machines

   - Fix the misplaced CR3 switch in the SYSCALL compat entry code which
     causes access to unmapped kernel memory resulting in double faults.

   - Fix the section mismatch of the cpu_tss_rw percpu storage caused by
     using a different mechanism for declaration and definition.

   - Two fixes for dumpstack which help to decode entry stack issues
     better

   - Enable PTI by default in Kconfig. We should have done that earlier,
     but it slipped through the cracks.

   - Exclude AMD from the PTI enforcement. Not necessarily a fix, but if
     AMD is so confident that they are not affected, then we should not
     burden users with the overhead"

x86/dumpstack: Fix partial register dumps

2018-01-03T15:14:46+00:00

The show_regs_safe() logic is wrong.  When there's an iret stack frame,
it prints the entire pt_regs -- most of which is random stack data --
instead of just the five registers at the end.

show_regs_safe() is also poorly named: the on_stack() checks aren't for
safety.  Rename the function to show_regs_if_on_stack() and add a
comment to explain why the checks are needed.

These issues were introduced with the "partial register dump" feature of
the following commit:

  b02fcf9ba121 ("x86/unwinder: Handle stack overflows more gracefully")

That patch had gone through a few iterations of development, and the
above issues were artifacts from a previous iteration of the patch where
'regs' pointed directly to the iret frame rather than to the (partially
empty) pt_regs.

x86/stacktrace: Make zombie stack traces reliable

2017-12-19T08:01:05+00:00

Commit:

  1959a60182f4 ("x86/dumpstack: Pin the target stack when dumping it")

changed the behavior of stack traces for zombies.  Before that commit,
/proc//stack reported the last execution path of the zombie before
it died:

  [] do_exit+0x6f7/0xa80
  [] do_group_exit+0x39/0xa0
  [] __wake_up_parent+0x0/0x30
  [] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
  [<00007fd128f9c4f9>] 0x7fd128f9c4f9
  [] 0xffffffffffffffff

After the commit, it just reports an empty stack trace.

The new behavior is actually probably more correct.  If the stack
refcount has gone down to zero, then the task has already gone through
do_exit() and isn't going to run anymore.  The stack could be freed at
any time and is basically gone, so reporting an empty stack makes sense.

However, save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() treats such a missing stack
condition as an error.  That can cause livepatch transition stalls if
there are any unreaped zombies.  Instead, just treat it as a reliable,
empty stack.
