timer/debug: Change /proc/timer_stats from 0644 to 0600

2019-05-16T07:17:21+00:00

The timer_stats facility should filter and translate PIDs if opened
from a non-initial PID namespace, to avoid leaking information about
the wider system.  It should also not show kernel virtual addresses.
Unfortunately it has now been removed upstream (as redundant)
instead of being fixed.

For stable, fix the leak by restricting access to root only.  A
similar change was already made for the /proc/timer_list file.

genirq: Prevent use-after-free and work list corruption

2019-05-16T07:17:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 59c39840f5abf4a71e1810a8da71aaccd6c17d26 ]

When irq_set_affinity_notifier() replaces the notifier, then the
reference count on the old notifier is dropped which causes it to be
freed. But nothing ensures that the old notifier is not longer queued
in the work list. If it is queued this results in a use after free and
possibly in work list corruption.

Ensure that the work is canceled before the reference is dropped.

sched/numa: Fix a possible divide-by-zero

2019-05-16T07:17:13+00:00

commit a860fa7b96e1a1c974556327aa1aee852d434c21 upstream.

sched_clock_cpu() may not be consistent between CPUs. If a task
migrates to another CPU, then se.exec_start is set to that CPU's
rq_clock_task() by update_stats_curr_start(). Specifically, the new
value might be before the old value due to clock skew.

So then if in numa_get_avg_runtime() the expression:

  'now - p->last_task_numa_placement'

ends up as -1, then the divider '*period + 1' in task_numa_placement()
is 0 and things go bang. Similar to update_curr(), check if time goes
backwards to avoid this.

trace: Fix preempt_enable_no_resched() abuse

2019-05-16T07:17:13+00:00

commit d6097c9e4454adf1f8f2c9547c2fa6060d55d952 upstream.

Unless the very next line is schedule(), or implies it, one must not use
preempt_enable_no_resched(). It can cause a preemption to go missing and
thereby cause arbitrary delays, breaking the PREEMPT=y invariant.

kernel/sysctl.c: fix out-of-bounds access when setting file-max

2019-04-27T07:30:31+00:00

commit 9002b21465fa4d829edfc94a5a441005cffaa972 upstream.

Commit 32a5ad9c2285 ("sysctl: handle overflow for file-max") hooked up
min/max values for the file-max sysctl parameter via the .extra1 and
.extra2 fields in the corresponding struct ctl_table entry.

Unfortunately, the minimum value points at the global 'zero' variable,
which is an int.  This results in a KASAN splat when accessed as a long
by proc_doulongvec_minmax on 64-bit architectures:

Fix the splat by introducing a unsigned long 'zero_ul' and using that
instead.

sched/fair: Limit sched_cfs_period_timer() loop to avoid hard lockup

2019-04-27T07:30:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2e8e19226398db8265a8e675fcc0118b9e80c9e8 ]

With extremely short cfs_period_us setting on a parent task group with a large
number of children the for loop in sched_cfs_period_timer() can run until the
watchdog fires. There is no guarantee that the call to hrtimer_forward_now()
will ever return 0.  The large number of children can make
do_sched_cfs_period_timer() take longer than the period.

 NMI watchdog: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 24
 RIP: 0010:tg_nop+0x0/0x10
  
  walk_tg_tree_from+0x29/0xb0
  unthrottle_cfs_rq+0xe0/0x1a0
  distribute_cfs_runtime+0xd3/0xf0

  hrtimer_interrupt+0x122/0x270
  smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x6a/0x140
  apic_timer_interrupt+0xf/0x20
  

To prevent this we add protection to the loop that detects when the loop has run
too many times and scales the period and quota up, proportionally, so that the timer
can complete before then next period expires.  This preserves the relative runtime
quota while preventing the hard lockup.

A warning is issued reporting this state and the new values.

kprobes: Fix error check when reusing optimized probes

2019-04-27T07:30:31+00:00

commit 5f843ed415581cfad4ef8fefe31c138a8346ca8a upstream.

The following commit introduced a bug in one of our error paths:

  819319fc9346 ("kprobes: Return error if we fail to reuse kprobe instead of BUG_ON()")

it missed to handle the return value of kprobe_optready() as
error-value. In reality, the kprobe_optready() returns a bool
result, so "true" case must be passed instead of 0.

This causes some errors on kprobe boot-time selftests on ARM:

 [   ] Beginning kprobe tests...
 [   ] Probe ARM code
 [   ]     kprobe
 [   ]     kretprobe
 [   ] ARM instruction simulation
 [   ]     Check decoding tables
 [   ]     Run test cases
 [   ] FAIL: test_case_handler not run
 [   ] FAIL: Test andge	r10, r11, r14, asr r7
 [   ] FAIL: Scenario 11
 ...
 [   ] FAIL: Scenario 7
 [   ] Total instruction simulation tests=1631, pass=1433 fail=198
 [   ] kprobe tests failed

This can happen if an optimized probe is unregistered and next
kprobe is registered on same address until the previous probe
is not reclaimed.

If this happens, a hidden aggregated probe may be kept in memory,
and no new kprobe can probe same address. Also, in that case
register_kprobe() will return "1" instead of minus error value,
which can mislead caller logic.

perf/core: Restore mmap record type correctly

2019-04-27T07:30:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit d9c1bb2f6a2157b38e8eb63af437cb22701d31ee ]

On mmap(), perf_events generates a RECORD_MMAP record and then checks
which events are interested in this record. There are currently 2
versions of mmap records: RECORD_MMAP and RECORD_MMAP2. MMAP2 is larger.
The event configuration controls which version the user level tool
accepts.

If the event->attr.mmap2=1 field then MMAP2 record is returned.  The
perf_event_mmap_output() takes care of this. It checks attr->mmap2 and
corrects the record fields before putting it in the sampling buffer of
the event.  At the end the function restores the modified MMAP record
fields.

The problem is that the function restores the size but not the type.
Thus, if a subsequent event only accepts MMAP type, then it would
instead receive an MMAP2 record with a size of MMAP record.

This patch fixes the problem by restoring the record type on exit.

sched/fair: Do not re-read ->h_load_next during hierarchical load calculation

2019-04-27T07:30:26+00:00

commit 0e9f02450da07fc7b1346c8c32c771555173e397 upstream.

A NULL pointer dereference bug was reported on a distribution kernel but
the same issue should be present on mainline kernel. It occured on s390
but should not be arch-specific.  A partial oops looks like:

  Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference in virtual kernel address space
  ...
  Call Trace:
    ...
    try_to_wake_up+0xfc/0x450
    vhost_poll_wakeup+0x3a/0x50 [vhost]
    __wake_up_common+0xbc/0x178
    __wake_up_common_lock+0x9e/0x160
    __wake_up_sync_key+0x4e/0x60
    sock_def_readable+0x5e/0x98

The bug hits any time between 1 hour to 3 days. The dereference occurs
in update_cfs_rq_h_load when accumulating h_load. The problem is that
cfq_rq->h_load_next is not protected by any locking and can be updated
by parallel calls to task_h_load. Depending on the compiler, code may be
generated that re-reads cfq_rq->h_load_next after the check for NULL and
then oops when reading se->avg.load_avg. The dissassembly showed that it
was possible to reread h_load_next after the check for NULL.

While this does not appear to be an issue for later compilers, it's still
an accident if the correct code is generated. Full locking in this path
would have high overhead so this patch uses READ_ONCE to read h_load_next
only once and check for NULL before dereferencing. It was confirmed that
there were no further oops after 10 days of testing.

As Peter pointed out, it is also necessary to use WRITE_ONCE() to avoid any
potential problems with store tearing.

sysctl: handle overflow for file-max

2019-04-27T07:30:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 32a5ad9c22852e6bd9e74bdec5934ef9d1480bc5 ]

Currently, when writing

  echo 18446744073709551616 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max

/proc/sys/fs/file-max will overflow and be set to 0.  That quickly
crashes the system.

This commit sets the max and min value for file-max.  The max value is
set to long int.  Any higher value cannot currently be used as the
percpu counters are long ints and not unsigned integers.

Note that the file-max value is ultimately parsed via
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax().  This function does not report error when
min or max are exceeded.  Which means if a value largen that long int is
written userspace will not receive an error instead the old value will be
kept.  There is an argument to be made that this should be changed and
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() should return an error when a dedicated min
or max value are exceeded.  However this has the potential to break
userspace so let's defer this to an RFC patch.
