[ Upstream commit ceb11679d9fcf3fdb358a310a38760fcbe9b63ed ]

Commit 4976b718c355 ("bpf: Introduce pseudo_btf_id") switched the
order of resolve_pseudo_ldimm(), in which some pseudo instructions
are rewritten. Thus those rewritten instructions cannot be passed
to driver via 'prepare' offload callback.

Reorder the 'prepare' offload callback to fix it.

<title>seccomp: Refactor notification handler to prepare for new semantics</title>

commit ddc473916955f7710d1eb17c1273d91c8622a9fe upstream.

This refactors the user notification code to have a do / while loop around
the completion condition. This has a small change in semantic, in that
previously we ignored addfd calls upon wakeup if the notification had been
responded to, but instead with the new change we check for an outstanding
addfd calls prior to returning to userspace.

Rodrigo Campos also identified a bug that can result in addfd causing
an early return, when the supervisor didn't actually handle the
syscall [1].

<title>bpf: No need to simulate speculative domain for immediates</title>

commit a7036191277f9fa68d92f2071ddc38c09b1e5ee5 upstream.

In 801c6058d14a ("bpf: Fix leakage of uninitialized bpf stack under
speculation") we replaced masking logic with direct loads of immediates
if the register is a known constant. Given in this case we do not apply
any masking, there is also no reason for the operation to be truncated
under the speculative domain.

Therefore, there is also zero reason for the verifier to branch-off and
simulate this case, it only needs to do it for unknown but bounded scalars.
As a side-effect, this also enables few test cases that were previously
rejected due to simulation under zero truncation.

commit bb01a1bba579b4b1c5566af24d95f1767859771e upstream.

Masking direction as indicated via mask_to_left is considered to be
calculated once and then used to derive pointer limits. Thus, this
needs to be placed into bpf_sanitize_info instead so we can pass it
to sanitize_ptr_alu() call after the pointer move. Piotr noticed a
corner case where the off reg causes masking direction change which
then results in an incorrect final aux-&gt;alu_limit.

Add a container structure struct bpf_sanitize_info which holds

to pass it in. This is needed for passing in additional state
later on.

When a interruptible mutex locker is interrupted by a signal
without acquiring this lock and removed from the wait queue.
if the mutex isn't contended enough to have a waiter
put into the wait queue again, the setting of the WAITER
bit will force mutex locker to go into the slowpath to
acquire the lock every time, so if the wait queue is empty,
the WAITER bit need to be clear.

The commit eb1f00237aca ("lockdep,trace: Expose tracepoints") reverses
tracepoints for lock_contended() and lock_acquired(), thus the ftrace
log shows the wrong locking sequence that "acquired" event is prior to
"contended" event:

[ Upstream commit dbb5afad100a828c97e012c6106566d99f041db6 ]

Suppose we have 2 threads, the group-leader L and a sub-theread T,
both parked in ptrace_stop(). Debugger tries to resume both threads
and does

	ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, T);
	ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, L);

If the sub-thread T execs in between, the 2nd PTRACE_CONT doesn not
resume the old leader L, it resumes the post-exec thread T which was
actually now stopped in PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC. In this case the
PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC event is lost, and the tracer can't know that the
tracee changed its pid.

This patch makes ptrace() fail in this case until debugger does wait()
and consumes PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC which reports old_pid. This affects all
ptrace requests except the "asynchronous" PTRACE_INTERRUPT/KILL.

The patch doesn't add the new PTRACE_ option to not complicate the API,
and I _hope_ this won't cause any noticeable regression:

	- If debugger uses PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC and the thread did an exec
	  and the tracer does a ptrace request without having consumed
	  the exec event, it's 100% sure that the thread the ptracer
	  thinks it is targeting does not exist anymore, or isn't the
	  same as the one it thinks it is targeting.

	- To some degree this patch adds nothing new. In the scenario
	  above ptrace(L) can fail with -ESRCH if it is called after the
	  execing sub-thread wakes the leader up and before it "steals"
	  the leader's pid.

Test-case:

	#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
	#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
	#include &lt;signal.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/ptrace.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/wait.h&gt;
	#include &lt;errno.h&gt;
	#include &lt;pthread.h&gt;
	#include &lt;assert.h&gt;

	void *tf(void *arg)
	{
		execve("/usr/bin/true", NULL, NULL);
		assert(0);

		return NULL;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		int leader = fork();
		if (!leader) {
			kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);

			pthread_t th;
			pthread_create(&amp;th, NULL, tf, NULL);
			for (;;)
				pause();

			return 0;
		}

		waitpid(leader, NULL, WSTOPPED);

		ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, leader, 0,
				PTRACE_O_TRACECLONE | PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC);
		waitpid(leader, NULL, 0);

		ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, leader, 0,0);
		waitpid(leader, NULL, 0);

		int status, thread = waitpid(-1, &amp;status, 0);
		assert(thread &gt; 0 &amp;&amp; thread != leader);
		assert(status == 0x80137f);

		ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, thread, 0,0);
		/*
		 * waitid() because waitpid(leader, &amp;status, WNOWAIT) does not
		 * report status. Why ????
		 *
		 * Why WEXITED? because we have another kernel problem connected
		 * to mt-exec.
		 */
		siginfo_t info;
		assert(waitid(P_PID, leader, &amp;info, WSTOPPED|WEXITED|WNOWAIT) == 0);
		assert(info.si_pid == leader &amp;&amp; info.si_status == 0x0405);

		/* OK, it sleeps in ptrace(PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC == 0x04) */
		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, leader, 0,0) == -1);
		assert(errno == ESRCH);

		assert(leader == waitpid(leader, &amp;status, WNOHANG));
		assert(status == 0x04057f);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, leader, 0,0) == 0);

		return 0;
	}

<title>alarmtimer: Check RTC features instead of ops</title>

commit e09784a8a751e539dffc94d43bc917b0ac1e934a upstream.

RTC drivers used to leave .set_alarm() NULL in order to signal the RTC
device doesn't support alarms. The drivers are now clearing the
RTC_FEATURE_ALARM bit for that purpose in order to keep the rtc_class_ops
structure const. So now, .set_alarm() is set unconditionally and this
possibly causes the alarmtimer code to select an RTC device that doesn't
support alarms.

Test RTC_FEATURE_ALARM instead of relying on ops-&gt;set_alarm to determine
whether alarms are available.
