tracing: Zero the pipe cpumask on alloc to avoid spurious -EBUSY

2023-09-19T10:20:23+00:00

commit 3d07fa1dd19035eb0b13ae6697efd5caa9033e74 upstream.

The pipe cpumask used to serialize opens between the main and percpu
trace pipes is not zeroed or initialized. This can result in
spurious -EBUSY returns if underlying memory is not fully zeroed.
This has been observed by immediate failure to read the main
trace_pipe file on an otherwise newly booted and idle system:

 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
 cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: Device or resource busy

Zero the allocation of pipe_cpumask to avoid the problem.

printk: ringbuffer: Fix truncating buffer size min_t cast

2023-09-19T10:20:21+00:00

commit 53e9e33ede37a247d926db5e4a9e56b55204e66c upstream.

If an output buffer size exceeded U16_MAX, the min_t(u16, ...) cast in
copy_data() was causing writes to truncate. This manifested as output
bytes being skipped, seen as %NUL bytes in pstore dumps when the available
record size was larger than 65536. Fix the cast to no longer truncate
the calculation.

tracing: Fix race issue between cpu buffer write and swap

2023-09-19T10:20:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3163f635b20e9e1fb4659e74f47918c9dddfe64e ]

Warning happened in rb_end_commit() at code:
	if (RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, !local_read(&cpu_buffer->committing)))

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 139 at kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:3142

It is because the race between writing event into cpu buffer and swapping
cpu buffer through file per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot:

  Write on CPU 0             Swap buffer by per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot on CPU 1

                                     goto out_dec;
                                 buffer_a->buffers[cpu] = cpu_buffer_b;
                                 buffer_b->buffers[cpu] = cpu_buffer_a;
                                 // 2. cpu_buffer has swapped here.

      rb_start_commit(cpu_buffer);
      if (unlikely(READ_ONCE(cpu_buffer->buffer)
          != buffer)) { // 3. This check passed due to 'cpu_buffer->buffer'
        [...]           //    has not changed here.
        return NULL;
      }
                                 cpu_buffer_b->buffer = buffer_a;
                                 cpu_buffer_a->buffer = buffer_b;

  ring_buffer_unlock_commit()
    [...]
    cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu]; // 5. Now find 'cpu_buffer_b' !!!
    rb_commit(cpu_buffer)
      rb_end_commit()  // 6. WARN for the wrong 'committing' state !!!

Based on above analysis, we can easily reproduce by following testcase:
  ``` bash
  #!/bin/bash

  dmesg -n 7
  sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_warn=1
  TR=/sys/kernel/tracing
  echo 7 > ${TR}/buffer_size_kb
  echo "sched:sched_switch" > ${TR}/set_event
  while [ true ]; do
          echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
  done &
  while [ true ]; do
          echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
  done &
  while [ true ]; do
          echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
  done &
  ```

To fix it, IIUC, we can use smp_call_function_single() to do the swap on
the target cpu where the buffer is located, so that above race would be
avoided.

audit: fix possible soft lockup in __audit_inode_child()

[ Upstream commit b59bc6e37237e37eadf50cd5de369e913f524463 ]

Tracefs or debugfs maybe cause hundreds to thousands of PATH records,
too many PATH records maybe cause soft lockup.

  1. CONFIG_KASAN=y && CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n
  2. auditctl -a exit,always -S open -k key
  3. sysctl -w kernel.watchdog_thresh=5
  4. mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test

There may be a soft lockup as follows:

refscale: Fix uninitalized use of wait_queue_head_t

2023-09-19T10:20:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit f5063e8948dad7f31adb007284a5d5038ae31bb8 ]

Running the refscale test occasionally crashes the kernel with the
following error:

[ 8569.952973]  

The likely cause is that init_waitqueue_head() is called after the call to
the torture_create_kthread() function that creates the ref_scale_reader
kthread.  Although this init_waitqueue_head() call will very likely
complete before this kthread is created and starts running, it is
possible that the calling kthread will be delayed between the calls to
torture_create_kthread() and init_waitqueue_head().  In this case, the
new kthread will use the waitqueue head before it is properly initialized,
which is not good for the kernel's health and well-being.

The above crash happened here:

	static inline void __add_wait_queue(...)
	{
		:
		if (!(wq->flags & WQ_FLAG_PRIORITY)) <=== Crash here

The offset of flags from list_head entry in wait_queue_entry is
-0x18. If reader_tasks[i].wq.head.next is NULL as allocated reader_task
structure is zero initialized, the instruction will try to access address
0xffffffffffffffe8, which is exactly the fault address listed above.

This commit therefore invokes init_waitqueue_head() before creating
the kthread.

tracing: Introduce pipe_cpumask to avoid race on trace_pipes

2023-09-19T10:20:06+00:00

[ Upstream commit c2489bb7e6be2e8cdced12c16c42fa128403ac03 ]

There is race issue when concurrently splice_read main trace_pipe and
per_cpu trace_pipes which will result in data read out being different
from what actually writen.

As suggested by Steven:
  > I believe we should add a ref count to trace_pipe and the per_cpu
  > trace_pipes, where if they are opened, nothing else can read it.
  >
  > Opening trace_pipe locks all per_cpu ref counts, if any of them are
  > open, then the trace_pipe open will fail (and releases any ref counts
  > it had taken).
  >
  > Opening a per_cpu trace_pipe will up the ref count for just that
  > CPU buffer. This will allow multiple tasks to read different per_cpu
  > trace_pipe files, but will prevent the main trace_pipe file from
  > being opened.

But because we only need to know whether per_cpu trace_pipe is open or
not, using a cpumask instead of using ref count may be easier.

After this patch, users will find that:
 - Main trace_pipe can be opened by only one user, and if it is
   opened, all per_cpu trace_pipes cannot be opened;
 - Per_cpu trace_pipes can be opened by multiple users, but each per_cpu
   trace_pipe can only be opened by one user. And if one of them is
   opened, main trace_pipe cannot be opened.

modules: only allow symbol_get of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL modules

2023-09-19T10:20:02+00:00

commit 9011e49d54dcc7653ebb8a1e05b5badb5ecfa9f9 upstream.

It has recently come to my attention that nvidia is circumventing the
protection added in 262e6ae7081d ("modules: inherit
TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE") by importing exports from their proprietary
modules into an allegedly GPL licensed module and then rexporting them.

Given that symbol_get was only ever intended for tightly cooperating
modules using very internal symbols it is logical to restrict it to
being used on EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL and prevent nvidia from costly DMCA
Circumvention of Access Controls law suites.

All symbols except for four used through symbol_get were already exported
as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, and the remaining four ones were switched over in
the preparation patches.
