<id>125d76412866d65d459388a0399b1f4a8db0bb8f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 352909b49ba0d74929b96af6dfbefc854ab6ebb5 upstream.

This tests that the vsyscall entries do what they're expected to do.
It also confirms that attempts to read the vsyscall page behave as
expected.

If changes are made to the vsyscall code or its memory map handling,
running this test in all three of vsyscall=none, vsyscall=emulate,
and vsyscall=native are helpful.

(Because it's easy, this also compares the vsyscall results to their
 vDSO equivalents.)

Note to KAISER backporters: please test this under all three
vsyscall modes.  Also, in the emulate and native modes, make sure
that test_vsyscall_64 agrees with the command line or config
option as to which mode you're in.  It's quite easy to mess up
the kernel such that native mode accidentally emulates
or vice versa.

Greg, etc: please backport this to all your Meltdown-patched
kernels.  It'll help make sure the patches didn't regress
vsyscalls.

This reverts commit b5213e1e9f25ccde958aa6364815ee87fef91100 which was
commit 46aa6a302b53f543f8e8b8e1714dc5e449ad36a6 upstream.

This is being reverted because the affected commit this was trying to
fix, a8ba798bc8ec ("selftests: enable O and KBUILD_OUTPUT"), was never
backported to the 4.4-stable tree.

Since commit a8ba798bc8ec ("selftests: enable O and KBUILD_OUTPUT")
selftests/vm build fails if run from the "selftests/vm" directory, but
it works in the selftests/ directory.  It's quicker to be able to do a
local vm-only build after a tree wipe and this patch allows for it
again.

[ Upstream commit a6d8a21596df041f36f4c2ccc260c459e3e851f1 ]

Tests under alignment subdirectory are skipped when executed on previous
generation hardware, but harness still marks them as failed.

  test: test_copy_unaligned
  tags: git_version:unknown
  [SKIP] Test skipped on line 26
  skip: test_copy_unaligned
  selftests: copy_unaligned [FAIL]

The MAGIC_SKIP_RETURN_VALUE value assigned to rc variable is retained till
the program exit which causes the test to be marked as failed.

This patch resets the value before returning to the main() routine.
With this patch the test o/p is as follows:

  test: test_copy_unaligned
  tags: git_version:unknown
  [SKIP] Test skipped on line 26
  skip: test_copy_unaligned
  selftests: copy_unaligned [PASS]

[ Upstream commit fec8f5ae1715a01c72ad52cb2ecd8aacaf142302 ]

We weren't testing the .limit and .limit_in_pages fields very well.
Add more tests.

This addition seems to trigger the "bits 16:19 are undefined" issue
that was fixed in an earlier patch.  I think that, at least on my
CPU, the high nibble of the limit ends in LAR bits 16:19.

commit afb999cdef69148f366839e74470d8f5375ba5f1 upstream.

Some distributions (Debian, OpenSUSE) have a udev rule in place to cancel
all fallback mechanism uevents immediately. This would obviously
make it hard to test against the fallback mechanism test interface,
so we need to check for this.

commit 1b1fe542b6f010cf6bc7e1c92805e1c0e133e007 upstream.

Now that we've added a 'trigger_async_request' knob to test the
request_firmware_nowait() API, let's use it. Also add tests for the
empty ("") string, since there have been a couple errors in that
handling already.

Since we now have real ways that the sysfs write might fail, let's add
the appropriate check on the 'echo' lines too.

commit 796a3bae2fba6810427efdb314a1c126c9490fb3 upstream.

test_execve does rather odd mount manipulations to safely create
temporary setuid and setgid executables that aren't visible to the
rest of the system.  Those executables end up in the test's cwd, but
that cwd is MNT_DETACHed.

The core namespace code considers MNT_DETACHed trees to belong to no
mount namespace at all and, in general, MNT_DETACHed trees are only
barely function.  This interacted with commit 380cf5ba6b0a ("fs:
Treat foreign mounts as nosuid") to cause all MNT_DETACHed trees to
act as though they're nosuid, breaking the test.

Fix it by just not detaching the tree.  It's still in a private
mount namespace and is therefore still invisible to the rest of the
system (except via /proc, and the same nosuid logic will protect all
other programs on the system from believing in test_execve's setuid
bits).

While we're at it, fix some blatant whitespace problems.

<title>selftests/x86/ldt_gdt_32: Work around a glibc sigaction() bug</title>

commit 65973dd3fd31151823f4b8c289eebbb3fb7e6bc0 upstream.

i386 glibc is buggy and calls the sigaction syscall incorrectly.

This is asymptomatic for normal programs, but it blows up on
programs that do evil things with segmentation.  The ldt_gdt
self-test is an example of such an evil program.

This doesn't appear to be a regression -- I think I just got lucky
with the uninitialized memory that glibc threw at the kernel when I
wrote the test.

This hackish fix manually issues sigaction(2) syscalls to undo the
damage.  Without the fix, ldt_gdt_32 segfaults; with the fix, it
passes for me.
