2018-05-28UPSTREAM: devicetree: Move include prefixes from arch to separate directoryOlof Johansson
We use a directory under arch/$ARCH/boot/dts as an include path that has links outside of the subtree to find dt-bindings from under include/dt-bindings. That's been working well, but new DT architectures haven't been adding them by default. Recently there's been a desire to share some of the DT material between arm and arm64, which originally caused developers to create symlinks or relative includes between the subtrees. This isn't ideal -- it breaks if the DT files aren't stored in the exact same hierarchy as the kernel tree, and generally it's just icky. As a somewhat cleaner solution we decided to add a $ARCH/ prefix link once, and allow DTS files to reference dtsi (and dts) files in other architectures that way. Original approach was to create these links under each architecture, but it lead to the problem of recursive symlinks. As a remedy, move the include link directories out of the architecture trees into a common location. At the same time, they can now share one directory and one dt-bindings/ link as well.

2017-05-25metag/uaccess: Check access_ok in strncpy_from_userJames Hogan
commit 3a158a62da0673db918b53ac1440845a5b64fd90 upstream. The metag implementation of strncpy_from_user() doesn't validate the src pointer, which could allow reading of arbitrary kernel memory. Add a short access_ok() check to prevent that. Its still possible for it to read across the user/kernel boundary, but it will invariably reach a NUL character after only 9 bytes, leaking only a static kernel address being loaded into D0Re0 at the beginning of __start, which is acceptable for the immediate fix.

2017-05-25metag/uaccess: Fix access_ok()James Hogan
commit 8a8b56638bcac4e64cccc88bf95a0f9f4b19a2fb upstream. The __user_bad() macro used by access_ok() has a few corner cases noticed by Al Viro where it doesn't behave correctly: - The kernel range check has off by 1 errors which permit access to the first and last byte of the kernel mapped range. - The kernel range check ends at LINCORE_BASE rather than META_MEMORY_LIMIT, which is ineffective when the kernel is in global space (an extremely uncommon configuration). There are a couple of other shortcomings here too: - Access to the whole of the other address space is permitted (i.e. the global half of the address space when the kernel is in local space). This isn't ideal as it could theoretically still contain privileged mappings set up by the bootloader. - The size argument is unused, permitting user copies which start on valid pages at the end of the user address range and cross the boundary into the kernel address space (e.g. addr = 0x3ffffff0, size > 0x10). It isn't very convenient to add size checks when disallowing certain regions, and it seems far safer to be sure and explicit about what userland is able to access, so invert the logic to allow certain regions instead, and fix the off by 1 errors and missing size checks. This also allows the get_fs() == KERNEL_DS check to be more easily optimised into the user address range case. We now have 3 such allowed regions: - The user address range (incorporating the get_fs() == KERNEL_DS check). - NULL (some kernel code expects this to work, and we'll always catch the fault anyway). - The core code memory region.

commit b884a190afcecdbef34ca508ea5ee88bb7c77861 upstream.

commit 2c0b1df88b987a12d95ea1d6beaf01894f3cc725 upstream. The fixup code to rewind the source pointer in __asm_copy_from_user_{32,64}bit_rapf_loop() always rewound the source by a single unit (4 or 8 bytes), however this is insufficient if the fault didn't occur on the first load in the loop, as the source pointer will have been incremented but nothing will have been stored until all 4 register [pairs] are loaded. Read the LSM_STEP field of TXSTATUS (which is already loaded into a register), a bit like the copy_to_user versions, to determine how many iterations of MGET[DL] have taken place, all of which need rewinding.

2017-04-12metag/usercopy: Set flags before ADDZJames Hogan
commit fd40eee1290ad7add7aa665e3ce6b0f9fe9734b4 upstream. The fixup code for the copy_to_user rapf loops reads TXStatus.LSM_STEP to decide how far to rewind the source pointer. There is a special case for the last execution of an MGETL/MGETD, since it leaves LSM_STEP=0 even though the number of MGETLs/MGETDs attempted was 4. This uses ADDZ which is conditional upon the Z condition flag, but the AND instruction which masked the TXStatus.LSM_STEP field didn't set the condition flags based on the result. Fix that now by using ANDS which does set the flags, and also marking the condition codes as clobbered by the inline assembly.

2017-04-12metag/usercopy: Zero rest of buffer from copy_from_userJames Hogan
commit 563ddc1076109f2b3f88e6d355eab7b6fd4662cb upstream. Currently we try to zero the destination for a failed read from userland in fixup code in the usercopy.c macros. The rest of the destination buffer is then zeroed from __copy_user_zeroing(), which is used for both copy_from_user() and __copy_from_user(). Unfortunately we fail to zero in the fixup code as D1Ar1 is set to 0 before the fixup code entry labels, and __copy_from_user() shouldn't even be zeroing the rest of the buffer. Move the zeroing out into copy_from_user() and rename __copy_user_zeroing() to raw_copy_from_user() since it no longer does any zeroing. This also conveniently matches the name needed for RAW_COPY_USER support in a later patch.

commit 2257211942bbbf6c798ab70b487d7e62f7835a1a upstream. Fix the error checking of the alignment adjustment code in raw_copy_from_user(), which mistakenly considers it safe to skip the error check when aligning the source buffer on a 2 or 4 byte boundary. If the destination buffer was unaligned it may have started to copy using byte or word accesses, which could well be at the start of a new (valid) source page. This would result in it appearing to have copied 1 or 2 bytes at the end of the first (invalid) page rather than none at all.

2016-08-20metag: Fix __cmpxchg_u32 asm constraint for CMPJames Hogan
commit 6154c187b97ee7513046bb4eb317a89f738f13ef upstream. The LNKGET based atomic sequence in __cmpxchg_u32 has slightly incorrect constraints for the return value which under certain circumstances can allow an address unit register to be used as the first operand of a CMP instruction. This isn't a valid instruction however as the encodings only allow a data unit to be specified. This would result in an assembler error like the following: Error: failed to assemble instruction: "CMP A0.2,D0Ar6" Fix by changing the constraint from "=&da" (assigned, early clobbered, data or address unit register) to "=&d" (data unit register only). The constraint for the second operand, "bd" (an op2 register where op1 is a data unit register and the instruction supports O2R) is already correct assuming the first operand is a data unit register. Other cases of CMP in inline asm have had their constraints checked, and appear to all be fine.

2015-10-27metag: enable building of all dtbsRob Herring
Enable building all dtb files when CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS is enabled. The dtbs are not really dependent on a platform being enabled or any other kernel config, so for testing coverage it is convenient to build all of the dtbs. This builds all dts files in the tree, not just targets listed. Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Cc: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-metag@vger.kernel.org

2015-10-04Merge branch 'strscpy' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures
2015-09-23atomic, arch: Audit atomic_{read,set}()Peter Zijlstra
This patch makes sure that atomic_{read,set}() are at least {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(). We already had the 'requirement' that atomic_read() should use ACCESS_ONCE(), and most archs had this, but a few were lacking. All are now converted to use READ_ONCE(). And, by a symmetry and general paranoia argument, upgrade atomic_set() to use WRITE_ONCE().

2015-09-15metag: SMP: Fix 4KiB stack setup on secondary CPUsJames Hogan
Back in early 2008, 4KiB stack support was added to reduce memory consumption on workloads with lots of threads, using a separate IRQ stack per CPU to alleviate stack pressure. However the SMP code added a year and a half later didn't set up the IRQ stack when bringing up secondary CPUs, resulting in a crash when SMP is configured with 4KiB stacks, as soon as the first interrupt arrived on a secondary CPU. Fix with calls to irq_ctx_exit()/irq_ctx_exit() when bringing up/down a CPU. Signed-off-by: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-metag@vger.kernel.org

2015-06-24mm: new mm hook frameworkLaurent Dufour
CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time. However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable. This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the powerpc architecture. This patch (of 3): This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks: - per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h) - a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h) The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do. The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the case the architecture is not defining it. In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should be moved here.
