linux-stable.git/kernel, branch v4.4.156 Linux kernel stable tree genirq: Delay incrementing interrupt count if it's disabled/pending 2018-09-15T07:40:40+00:00 Sudeep Holla sudeep.holla@arm.com 2015-11-04T18:32:37+00:00 27e83f7dd91dee0d7d4a8289db3de4c12f0436bd commit a946e8c717f9355d1abd5408ed0adc0002d1aed1 upstream. In case of a wakeup interrupt, irq_pm_check_wakeup disables the interrupt and marks it pending and suspended, disables it and notifies the pm core about the wake event. The interrupt gets handled later once the system is resumed. However the irq stats is updated twice: once when it's disabled waiting for the system to resume and later when it's handled, resulting in wrong counting of the wakeup interrupt when waking up the system. This patch updates the interrupt count so that it's updated only when the interrupt gets handled. It's already handled correctly in handle_edge_irq and handle_edge_eoi_irq.

commit a946e8c717f9355d1abd5408ed0adc0002d1aed1 upstream.

In case of a wakeup interrupt, irq_pm_check_wakeup disables the interrupt
and marks it pending and suspended, disables it and notifies the pm core
about the wake event. The interrupt gets handled later once the system
is resumed.

However the irq stats is updated twice: once when it's disabled waiting
for the system to resume and later when it's handled, resulting in wrong
counting of the wakeup interrupt when waking up the system.

This patch updates the interrupt count so that it's updated only when
the interrupt gets handled. It's already handled correctly in
handle_edge_irq and handle_edge_eoi_irq.

[ Upstream commit 06e62a46bbba20aa5286102016a04214bb446141 ]

Before this change, if a multithreaded process forks while one of its
threads is changing a signal handler using sigaction(), the memcpy() in
copy_sighand() can race with the struct assignment in do_sigaction().  It
isn't clear whether this can cause corruption of the userspace signal
handler pointer, but it definitely can cause inconsistency between
different fields of struct sigaction.

Take the appropriate spinlock to avoid this.

I have tested that this patch prevents inconsistency between sa_sigaction
and sa_flags, which is possible before this patch.

commit 3e536e222f2930534c252c1cc7ae799c725c5ff9 upstream.

There is a window for racing when printing directly to task->comm,
allowing other threads to see a non-terminated string. The vsnprintf
function fills the buffer, counts the truncated chars, then finally
writes the \0 at the end.

	creator                     other

	  fill (not terminated)

	  write \0

The consequences depend on how 'other' uses the string. In our case,
it was copied into the tracing system's saved cmdlines, a buffer of
adjacent TASK_COMM_LEN-byte buffers (note the 'n' where 0 should be):

	crash-arm64> x/1024s savedcmd->saved_cmdlines | grep 'evenk'
	0xffffffd5b3818640:     "irq/497-pwr_evenkworker/u16:12"

...and a strcpy out of there would cause stack corruption:

  Current trace-enable attribute in sysfs returns an error

tracing: Do not call start/stop() functions when tracing_on does not change 2018-09-09T18:04:34+00:00 Steven Rostedt (VMware) rostedt@goodmis.org 2018-08-01T19:40:57+00:00 0943ce7b7e066a88210ca3ea53db5515d21b3312 commit f143641bfef9a4a60c57af30de26c63057e7e695 upstream. Currently, when one echo's in 1 into tracing_on, the current tracer's "start()" function is executed, even if tracing_on was already one. This can lead to strange side effects. One being that if the hwlat tracer is enabled, and someone does "echo 1 > tracing_on" into tracing_on, the hwlat tracer's start() function is called again which will recreate another kernel thread, and make it unable to remove the old one.

commit f143641bfef9a4a60c57af30de26c63057e7e695 upstream.

Currently, when one echo's in 1 into tracing_on, the current tracer's
"start()" function is executed, even if tracing_on was already one. This can
lead to strange side effects. One being that if the hwlat tracer is enabled,
and someone does "echo 1 > tracing_on" into tracing_on, the hwlat tracer's
start() function is called again which will recreate another kernel thread,
and make it unable to remove the old one.
