2019-01-09MIPS: math-emu: Write-protect delay slot emulation pagesPaul Burton1-2/+2
commit adcc81f148d733b7e8e641300c5590a2cdc13bf3 upstream. Mapping the delay slot emulation page as both writeable & executable presents a security risk, in that if an exploit can write to & jump into the page then it can be used as an easy way to execute arbitrary code. Prevent this by mapping the page read-only for userland, and using access_process_vm() with the FOLL_FORCE flag to write to it from mips_dsemul(). This will likely be less efficient due to copy_to_user_page() performing cache maintenance on a whole page, rather than a single line as in the previous use of flush_cache_sigtramp(). However this delay slot emulation code ought not to be running in any performance critical paths anyway so this isn't really a problem, and we can probably do better in copy_to_user_page() anyway in future. A major advantage of this approach is that the fix is small & simple to backport to stable kernels.

2018-10-18MIPS: VDSO: Always map near top of user memoryPaul Burton2-1/+42
commit ea7e0480a4b695d0aa6b3fa99bd658a003122113 upstream. When using the legacy mmap layout, for example triggered using ulimit -s unlimited, get_unmapped_area() fills memory from bottom to top starting from a fairly low address near TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE. This placement is suboptimal if the user application wishes to allocate large amounts of heap memory using the brk syscall. With the VDSO being located low in the user's virtual address space, the amount of space available for access using brk is limited much more than it was prior to the introduction of the VDSO. For example: # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps 00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 00cc3000-00ce4000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 2ab96000-2ab98000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 2ab98000-2ab99000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 2ab99000-2ab9d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 ... Resolve this by adjusting STACK_TOP to reserve space for the VDSO & providing an address hint to get_unmapped_area() causing it to use this space even when using the legacy mmap layout. We reserve enough space for the VDSO, plus 1MB or 256MB for 32 bit & 64 bit systems respectively within which we randomize the VDSO base address. Previously this randomization was taken care of by the mmap base address randomization performed by arch_mmap_rnd(). The 1MB & 256MB sizes are somewhat arbitrary but chosen such that we have some randomization without taking up too much of the user's virtual address space, which is often in short supply for 32 bit systems. With this the VDSO is always mapped at a high address, leaving lots of space for statically linked programs to make use of brk: # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps 00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436 /usr/bin/coreutils 004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 00c28000-00c49000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] ... 7f67c000-7f69d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7f7fc000-7f7fd000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 7fcf1000-7fcf3000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar] 7fcf3000-7fcf4000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@mips.com> Reported-by: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Fixes: ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO") Cc: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.4+ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2018-09-19MIPS: VDSO: Match data page cache colouring when D$ aliasesPaul Burton1-0/+20
commit 0f02cfbc3d9e413d450d8d0fd660077c23f67eff upstream. When a system suffers from dcache aliasing a user program may observe stale VDSO data from an aliased cache line. Notably this can break the expectation that clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ...) is, as its name suggests, monotonic. In order to ensure that users observe updates to the VDSO data page as intended, align the user mappings of the VDSO data page such that their cache colouring matches that of the virtual address range which the kernel will use to update the data page - typically its unmapped address within kseg0. This ensures that we don't introduce aliasing cache lines for the VDSO data page, and therefore that userland will observe updates without requiring cache invalidation.

2018-09-05MIPS: Correct the 64-bit DSP accumulator register sizeMaciej W. Rozycki2-2/+2
commit f5958b4cf4fc38ed4583ab83fb7c4cd1ab05f47b upstream. Use the `unsigned long' rather than `__u32' type for DSP accumulator registers, like with the regular MIPS multiply/divide accumulator and general-purpose registers, as all are 64-bit in 64-bit implementations and using a 32-bit data type leads to contents truncation on context saving.

2018-07-17MIPS: Use async IPIs for arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()Paul Burton1-15/+30
commit b63e132b6433a41cf311e8bc382d33fd2b73b505 upstream. The current MIPS implementation of arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is broken because it attempts to use synchronous IPIs despite the fact that it may be run with interrupts disabled. This means that when arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is invoked, for example by the RCU CPU stall watchdog, we may: - Deadlock due to use of synchronous IPIs with interrupts disabled, causing the CPU that's attempting to generate the backtrace output to hang itself. - Not succeed in generating the desired output from remote CPUs. - Produce warnings about this from smp_call_function_many(), for example: [42760.526910] INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: [42760.535755] 0-...!: (1 GPs behind) idle=ade/140000000000000/0 softirq=526944/526945 fqs=0 [42760.547874] 1-...!: (0 ticks this GP) idle=e4a/140000000000000/0 softirq=547885/547885 fqs=0 [42760.559869] (detected by 2, t=2162 jiffies, g=266689, c=266688, q=33) [42760.568927] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [42760.576146] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1216 at kernel/smp.c:416 smp_call_function_many+0x88/0x20c [42760.587839] Modules linked in: [42760.593152] CPU: 2 PID: 1216 Comm: sh Not tainted 4.15.4-00373-gee058bb4d0c2 #2 [42760.603767] Stack : 8e09bd20 8e09bd20 8e09bd20 fffffff0 00000007 00000006 00000000 8e09bca8 [42760.616937] 95b2b379 95b2b379 807a0080 00000007 81944518 0000018a 00000032 00000000 [42760.630095] 00000000 00000030 80000000 00000000 806eca74 00000009 8017e2b8 000001a0 [42760.643169] 00000000 00000002 00000000 8e09baa4 00000008 808b8008 86d69080 8e09bca0 [42760.656282] 8e09ad50 805e20aa 00000000 00000000 00000000 8017e2b8 00000009 801070ca [42760.669424] ...

This patch switches MIPS' arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() to use async IPIs & smp_call_function_single_async() in order to resolve this problem. We ensure use of the pre-allocated call_single_data_t structures is serialized by maintaining a cpumask indicating that they're busy, and refusing to attempt to send an IPI when a CPU's bit is set in this mask. This should only happen if a CPU hasn't responded to a previous backtrace IPI - ie. if it's hung - and we print a warning to the console in this case. I've marked this for stable branches as far back as v4.9, to which it applies cleanly. Strictly speaking the faulty MIPS implementation can be traced further back to commit 856839b76836 ("MIPS: Add arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function") in v3.19, but kernel versions v3.19 through v4.8 will require further work to backport due to the rework performed in commit 9a01c3ed5cdb ("nmi_backtrace: add more trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods").

2018-07-17MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()Paul Burton2-2/+3
commit 5a267832c2ec47b2dad0fdb291a96bb5b8869315 upstream. The generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() function calls show_regs() when a struct pt_regs is available, and dump_stack() otherwise. If we were to make use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() with MIPS' current implementation of show_regs() this would mean that we see only register data with no accompanying stack information, in contrast with our current implementation which calls dump_stack() regardless of whether register state is available. In preparation for making use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() to implement arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), have our implementation of show_regs() call dump_stack() and drop the explicit dump_stack() call in arch_dump_stack() which is invoked by arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(). This will allow the output we produce to remain the same after a later patch switches to using nmi_cpu_backtrace(). It may mean that we produce extra stack output in other uses of show_regs(), but this: 1) Seems harmless. 2) Is good for consistency between arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() and other users of show_regs(). 3) Matches the behaviour of the ARM & PowerPC architectures. Marked for stable back to v4.9 as a prerequisite of the following patch "MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()".

commit 28e4213dd331e944e7fca1954a946829162ed9d4 upstream. Having PR_FP_MODE_FRE (i.e. Config5.FRE) set without PR_FP_MODE_FR (i.e. Status.FR) is not supported as the lone purpose of Config5.FRE is to emulate Status.FR=0 handling on FPU hardware that has Status.FR=1 hardwired[1][2]. Also we do not handle this case elsewhere, and assume throughout our code that TIF_HYBRID_FPREGS and TIF_32BIT_FPREGS cannot be set both at once for a task, leading to inconsistent behaviour if this does happen. Return unsuccessfully then from prctl(2) PR_SET_FP_MODE calls requesting PR_FP_MODE_FRE to be set with PR_FP_MODE_FR clear. This corresponds to modes allowed by `mips_set_personality_fp'.

commit 791412dafbbfd860e78983d45cf71db603a82f67 upstream. Reading mips_cpc_base value from the DT allows each platform to define it according to its needs. This is especially convenient for MIPS_GENERIC kernel where this kind of information should be determined in runtime. Use mti,mips-cpc compatible string with just a reg property to specify the register location for your platform.

commit 06a3f0c9f2725f5d7c63c4203839373c9bd00c28 upstream. Commit a3e6c1eff548 ("MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on CPU IRQs") fixes an issue where disable_irq did not actually disable the irq. The bug caused our IPIs to not be disabled, which actually is the correct behavior. With the addition of commit a3e6c1eff548 ("MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on CPU IRQs"), the IPIs were getting disabled going into suspend, thus schedule_ipi() was not being called. This caused deadlocks where schedulable task were not being scheduled and other cpus were waiting for them to do something. Add the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag so an irq_disable will not be called on the IPIs during suspend.

commit 67a3ba25aa955198196f40b76b329b3ab9ad415a upstream. Commit 73fbc1eba7ff ("MIPS: fix mem=X@Y commandline processing") added a fix to ensure that the memory range between PHYS_OFFSET and low memory address specified by mem= cmdline argument is not later processed by free_all_bootmem. This change was incorrect for systems where the commandline specifies more than 1 mem argument, as it will cause all memory between PHYS_OFFSET and each of the memory offsets to be marked as reserved, which results in parts of the RAM marked as reserved (Creator CI20's u-boot has a default commandline argument 'mem=256M@0x0 mem=768M@0x30000000'). Change the behaviour to ensure that only the range between PHYS_OFFSET and the lowest start address of the memories is marked as protected. This change also ensures that the range is marked protected even if it's only defined through the devicetree and not only via commandline arguments.

commit c04de7b1ad645b61c141df8ca903ba0cc03a57f7 upstream. Since commit 68923cdc2eb3 ("MIPS: CM: Add cluster & block args to mips_cm_lock_other()"), mips_smp_send_ipi_mask() has used mips_cm_lock_other_cpu() with each CPU number, rather than mips_cm_lock_other() with the first VPE in each core. Prior to r6, multicore multithreaded systems such as dual-core dual-thread interAptivs with CPU Idle enabled (e.g. MIPS Creator Ci40) results in mips_cm_lock_other() repeatedly hitting WARN_ON(vp != 0). There doesn't appear to be anything fundamentally wrong about passing a non-zero VP/VPE number, even if it is a core's region that is locked into the other region before r6, so remove that particular WARN_ON().

2018-01-17MIPS: Fix an FCSR access API regression with NT_PRFPREG and MSAMaciej W. Rozycki1-11/+36
commit be07a6a1188372b6d19a3307ec33211fc9c9439d upstream. Fix a commit 72b22bbad1e7 ("MIPS: Don't assume 64-bit FP registers for FP regset") public API regression, then activated by commit 1db1af84d6df ("MIPS: Basic MSA context switching support"), that caused the FCSR register not to be read or written for CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA kernel configurations (regardless of actual presence or absence of the MSA feature in a given processor) with ptrace(2) PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET requests nor recorded in core dumps. This is because with !CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations the whole of `elf_fpregset_t' array is bulk-copied as it is, which includes the FCSR in one half of the last, 33rd slot, whereas with CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations array elements are copied individually, and then only the leading 32 FGR slots while the remaining slot is ignored. Correct the code then such that only FGR slots are copied in the respective !MSA and MSA helpers an then the FCSR slot is handled separately in common code. Use `ptrace_setfcr31' to update the FCSR too, so that the read-only mask is respected. Retrieving a correct value of FCSR is important in debugging not only for the human to be able to get the right interpretation of the situation, but for correct operation of GDB as well. This is because the condition code bits in FSCR are used by GDB to determine the location to place a breakpoint at when single-stepping through an FPU branch instruction. If such a breakpoint is placed incorrectly (i.e. with the condition reversed), then it will be missed, likely causing the debuggee to run away from the control of GDB and consequently breaking the process of investigation. Fortunately GDB continues using the older PTRACE_GETFPREGS ptrace(2) request which is unaffected, so the regression only really hits with post-mortem debug sessions using a core dump file, in which case execution, and consequently single-stepping through branches is not possible. Of course core files created by buggy kernels out there will have the value of FCSR recorded clobbered, but such core files cannot be corrected and the person using them simply will have to be aware that the value of FCSR retrieved is not reliable. Which also means we can likely get away without defining a replacement API which would ensure a correct value of FSCR to be retrieved, or none at all.

Update commit d614fd58a283 ("mips/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write") bug and consistently consume all data supplied to `fpr_set_msa' with the ptrace(2) PTRACE_SETREGSET request, such that a zero data buffer counter is returned where insufficient data has been given to fill a whole number of FP general registers. In reality this is not going to happen, as the caller is supposed to only supply data covering a whole number of registers and it is verified in `ptrace_regset' and again asserted in `fpr_set', however structuring code such that the presence of trailing partial FP general register data causes `fpr_set_msa' to return with a non-zero data buffer counter makes it appear that this trailing data will be used if there are subsequent writes made to FP registers, which is going to be the case with the FCSR once the missing write to that register has been fixed.

Fix an API loophole introduced with commit 9791554b45a2 ("MIPS,prctl: add PR_[GS]ET_FP_MODE prctl options for MIPS"), where the caller of prctl(2) is incorrectly allowed to make a change to CP0.Status.FR or CP0.Config5.FRE register bits even if CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT has not been enabled, despite that an executable requesting the mode requested via ELF file annotation would not be allowed to run in the first place, or for n64 and n64 ABI tasks which do not have non-default modes defined at all. Add suitable checks to `mips_set_process_fp_mode' and bail out if an invalid mode change has been requested for the ABI in effect, even if the FPU hardware or emulation would otherwise allow it.

We have the views defined in arch/mips/kernel/ptrace.c, however only an o32 and an n64 one, and the latter is used for n32 as well. Consequently an o32 core file is incorrectly dumped from n32 processes (the ELF32 vs ELF64 class is chosen elsewhere, and the 32-bit one is correctly selected for n32).

2017-11-30MIPS: Fix MIPS64 FP save/restore on 32-bit kernelsJames Hogan1-10/+10
commit 22b8ba765a726d90e9830ff6134c32b04f12c10f upstream. 32-bit kernels can be configured to support MIPS64, in which case neither CONFIG_64BIT or CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32_R* will be set. This causes the CP0_Status.FR checks at the point of floating point register save and restore to be compiled out, which results in odd FP registers not being saved or restored to the task or signal context even when CP0_Status.FR is set. Fix the ifdefs to use CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR2 and CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6, which are enabled for the relevant revisions of either MIPS32 or MIPS64, along with some other CPUs such as Octeon (r2), Loongson1 (r2), XLP (r2), Loongson 3A R2. The suspect code originates from commit 597ce1723e0f ("MIPS: Support for 64-bit FP with O32 binaries") in v3.14, however the code in __enable_fpu() was consistent and refused to set FR=1, falling back to software FPU emulation. This was suboptimal but should be functionally correct. Commit fcc53b5f6c38 ("MIPS: fpu.h: Allow 64-bit FPU on a 64-bit MIPS R6 CPU") in v4.2 (and stable tagged back to 4.0) later introduced the bug by updating __enable_fpu() to set FR=1 but failing to update the other similar ifdefs to enable FR=1 state handling.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman19-0/+19
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual in
