mm: convert return type of handle_mm_fault() caller to vm_fault_t

2018-08-17T23:20:28+00:00

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler.  For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno.  Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.

Ref-> commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")

In this patch all the caller of handle_mm_fault() are changed to return
vm_fault_t type.

signal/um: More carefully relay signals in relay_signal.

2018-04-28T13:46:49+00:00

There is a bug in relay signal.  It assumes that when a signal is
relayed the signal never uses a signal independent si_code, such
as SI_USER, SI_KERNEL, SI_QUEUE, ... SI_SIGIO etc.  In practice
siginfo was assuming it was relaying a signal with the SIL_FAULT
layout.  As that is the common cases for the signals it supported
that is a reasonable assumption.

Further user mode linux must be very careful when relaying different
kinds of signals to prevent an information leak.  This means simply
increasing the kinds of signals that are handled in relay_signal
is non-trivial.

Therefore use siginfo_layout and force_sig_fault to simplify
the signal relaying in relay_signal.

By taking advantage of the fact that user mode linux only works
on x86 and x86_64 we can assume that si_trapno can be ignored,
and that si_errno is always zero.

For the signals SIGLL, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, and SIGTRAP the only
fault handler I know of that sets si_errno is SIGTRAP TRAP_HWBKPT on a
few oddball architectures.  Those architectures have been modified to
use force_sig_ptrace_errno_trap.

Similarly only a few architectures set __ARCH_SI_TRAPNO.

At the point uml supports those architectures again these additional
cases can be examined and supported if desired in relay_signal.

signal/um: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate

2018-04-25T15:44:11+00:00

Filling in struct siginfo before calling force_sig_info a tedious and
error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields
are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared.

Simplify this process by using the helper force_sig_fault.  Which
takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures
all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly
and then calls force_sig_info.

In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time force_sig_info
is called, which makes the calling function clearer.

signal: Ensure every siginfo we send has all bits initialized

2018-04-25T15:40:51+00:00

Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly
initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions.

Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct
siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when
initializing a structure.

The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit
was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into
tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local
variable siginfo gets fully initialized.

In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it
clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function
in which it is declared.

Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced
with calls clear_siginfo for clarity.

signal: Replace memset(info,...) with clear_siginfo for clarity

2018-01-23T01:07:08+00:00

The function clear_siginfo is just a nice wrapper around memset so
this results in no functional change.  This change makes mistakes
a little more difficult and it makes it clearer what is going on.

Do not hash userspace addresses in fault handlers

2017-12-20T01:04:43+00:00

The hashing of %p was designed to restrict kernel addresses. There is
no reason to hash the userspace values seen during a segfault report,
so switch these to %px. (Some architectures already use %lx.)
