2020-12-30kernel/io_uring: cancel io_uring before task worksPavel Begunkov
For cancelling io_uring requests it needs either to be able to run currently enqueued task_works or having it shut down by that moment. Otherwise io_uring_cancel_files() may be waiting for requests that won't ever complete. Go with the first way and do cancellations before setting PF_EXITING and so before putting the task_work infrastructure into a transition state where task_work_run() would better not be called.

2020-10-29sched: fix exit_mm vs membarrier (v4)Mathieu Desnoyers
exit_mm should issue memory barriers after user-space memory accesses, before clearing current->mm, to order user-space memory accesses performed prior to exit_mm before clearing tsk->mm, which has the effect of skipping the membarrier private expedited IPIs. exit_mm should also update the runqueue's membarrier_state so membarrier global expedited IPIs are not sent when they are not needed. The membarrier system call can be issued concurrently with do_exit if we have thread groups created with CLONE_VM but not CLONE_THREAD. Here is the scenario I have in mind: Two thread groups are created, A and B. Thread group B is created by issuing clone from group A with flag CLONE_VM set, but not CLONE_THREAD. Let's assume we have a single thread within each thread group (Thread A and Thread B). The AFAIU we can have: Userspace variables: int x = 0, y = 0; CPU 0 CPU 1 Thread A Thread B (in thread group A) (in thread group B) x = 1 barrier() y = 1 exit() exit_mm() current->mm = NULL; r1 = load y membarrier() skips CPU 0 (no IPI) because its current mm is NULL r2 = load x BUG_ON(r1 == 1 && r2 == 0) Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201020134715.13909-2-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com
2020-10-28don't dump the threads that had been already exiting when zapped.Al Viro
Coredump logics needs to report not only the registers of the dumping thread, but (since 2.5.43) those of other threads getting killed. Doing that might require extra state saved on the stack in asm glue at kernel entry; signal delivery logics does that (we need to be able to save sigcontext there, at the very least) and so does seccomp. That covers all callers of do_coredump(). Secondary threads get hit with SIGKILL and caught as soon as they reach exit_mm(), which normally happens in signal delivery, so those are also fine most of the time. Unfortunately, it is possible to end up with secondary zapped when it has already entered exit(2) (or, worse yet, is oopsing). In those cases we reach exit_mm() when mm->core_state is already set, but the stack contents is not what we would have in signal delivery. At least on two architectures (alpha and m68k) it leads to infoleaks - we end up with a chunk of kernel stack written into coredump, with the contents consisting of normal C stack frames of the call chain leading to exit_mm() instead of the expected copy of userland registers. In case of alpha we leak 312 bytes of stack. Other architectures (including the regset-using ones) might have similar problems - the normal user of regsets is ptrace and the state of tracee at the time of such calls is special in the same way signal delivery is. Note that had the zapper gotten to the exiting thread slightly later, it wouldn't have been included into coredump anyway - we skip the threads that have already cleared their ->mm. So let's pretend that zapper always loses the race. IOW, have exit_mm() only insert into the dumper list if we'd gotten there from handling a fatal signal[*] As the result, the callers of do_exit() that have *not* gone through get_signal() are not seen by coredump logics as secondary threads. Which excludes voluntary exit()/oopsen/traps/etc. The dumper thread itself is unaffected by that, so seccomp is fine. [*] originally I intended to add a new flag in tsk->flags, but ebiederman pointed out that PF_SIGNALED is already doing just what we need.

2020-09-04exit: support non-blocking pidfdsChristian Brauner
Passing a non-blocking pidfd to waitid() currently has no effect, i.e. is not supported. There are users which would like to use waitid() on pidfds that are O_NONBLOCK and mix it with pidfds that are blocking and both pass them to waitid(). The expected behavior is to have waitid() return -EAGAIN for non-blocking pidfds and to block for blocking pidfds without needing to perform any additional checks for flags set on the pidfd before passing it to waitid(). Non-blocking pidfds will return EAGAIN from waitid() when no child process is ready yet. Returning -EAGAIN for non-blocking pidfds makes it easier for event loops that handle EAGAIN specially. It also makes the API more consistent and uniform. In essence, waitid() is treated like a read on a non-blocking pidfd or a recvmsg() on a non-blocking socket. With the addition of support for non-blocking pidfds we support the same functionality that sockets do. For sockets() recvmsg() supports MSG_DONTWAIT for pidfds waitid() supports WNOHANG. Both flags are per-call options. In contrast non-blocking pidfds and non-blocking sockets are a setting on an open file description affecting all threads in the calling process as well as other processes that hold file descriptors referring to the same open file description. Both behaviors, per call and per open file description, have genuine use-cases. The implementation should be straightforward: - If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is not raised we simply raise the WNOHANG flag internally. When do_wait() returns indicating that there are eligible child processes but none have exited yet we set EAGAIN. If no child process exists we continue returning ECHILD. - If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is raised waitid() will continue returning 0, i.e. it will not set EAGAIN. This ensure backwards compatibility with applications passing WNOHANG explicitly with pidfds. A concrete use-case that was brought on-list was Josh's async pidfd library. Ever since the introduction of pidfds and more advanced async io various programming languages such as Rust have grown support for async event libraries. These libraries are created to help build epoll-based event loops around file descriptors. A common pattern is to automatically make all file descriptors they manage to O_NONBLOCK. For such libraries the EAGAIN error code is treated specially. When a function is called that returns EAGAIN the function isn't called again until the event loop indicates the the file descriptor is ready. Supporting EAGAIN when waiting on pidfds makes such libraries just work with little effort.

2020-07-10seccomp: release filter after task is fully deadChristian Brauner
The seccomp filter used to be released in free_task() which is called asynchronously via call_rcu() and assorted mechanisms. Since we need to inform tasks waiting on the seccomp notifier when a filter goes empty we will notify them as soon as a task has been marked fully dead in release_task(). To not split seccomp cleanup into two parts, move filter release out of free_task() and into release_task() after we've unhashed struct task from struct pid, exited signals, and unlinked it from the threadgroups' thread list. We'll put the empty filter notification infrastructure into it in a follow up patch. This also renames put_seccomp_filter() to seccomp_filter_release() which is a more descriptive name of what we're doing here especially once we've added the empty filter notification mechanism in there. We're also NULL-ing the task's filter tree entrypoint which seems cleaner than leaving a dangling pointer in there. Note that this shouldn't need any memory barriers since we're calling this when the task is in release_task() which means it's EXIT_DEAD. So it can't modify its seccomp filters anymore. You can also see this from the point where we're calling seccomp_filter_release(). It's after __exit_signal() and at this point, tsk->sighand will already have been NULLed which is required for thread-sync and filter installation alike.

2020-07-04umd: Track user space drivers with struct pidEric W. Biederman
Use struct pid instead of user space pid values that are prone to wrap araound. In addition track the entire thread group instead of just the first thread that is started by exec. There are no multi-threaded user mode drivers today but there is nothing preclucing user drivers from being multi-threaded, so it is just a good idea to track the entire process. Take a reference count on the tgid's in question to make it possible to remove exit_umh in a future change. As a struct pid is available directly use kill_pid_info. The prior process signalling code was iffy in using a userspace pid known to be in the initial pid namespace and then looking up it's task in whatever the current pid namespace is. It worked only because kernel threads always run in the initial pid namespace. As the tgid is now refcounted verify the tgid is NULL at the start of fork_usermode_driver to avoid the possibility of silent pid leaks. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87mu4qdlv2.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/a70l4oy8.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702164140.4468-12-ebiederm@xmission.com Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Tested-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils down to, e.g. static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address) { return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1); } static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address) { return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address); } These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined. For architectures that really need a custom version there is always possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic. These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table accessors to the new header. This patch (of 12): The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h> in the files that include <linux/mm.h>. The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop: for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f done Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Cain <bcain@codeaurora.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net> Cc: "David S.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y and CONFIG_CGROUPS=y, kernel oopses in non-preemptible context look untidy; after the main oops, the kernel prints a "sleeping function called from invalid context" report because exit_signals() -> cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin() -> percpu_down_read() can sleep, and that happens before the preempt_count_set(PREEMPT_ENABLED) fixup. It looks like the same thing applies to profile_task_exit() and kcov_task_exit(). Fix it by moving the preemption fixup up and the calls to profile_task_exit() and kcov_task_exit() down.

The work on exec starts solving a long standing issue with exec that it takes mutexes of blocking userspace applications, which makes exec extremely deadlock prone.

2020-03-04posix-cpu-timers: Stop disabling timers on mt-execEric W. Biederman
The reasons why the extra posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() invocation has been added are not entirely clear from the commit message. Today all that posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() does is stop timers that are tracking the task from firing. Every other operation on those timers is still allowed. The practical implication of this is posix_cpu_timer_del() which could not get the siglock after the thread group leader has exited (because sighand == NULL) would be able to run successfully because the timer was already dequeued. With that locking issue fixed there is no point in disabling all of the timers. So remove this ``tempoary'' hack.

2020-02-24proc: Use a list of inodes to flush from procEric W. Biederman
Rework the flushing of proc to use a list of directory inodes that need to be flushed. The list is kept on struct pid not on struct task_struct, as there is a fixed connection between proc inodes and pids but at least for the case of de_thread the pid of a task_struct changes. This removes the dependency on proc_mnt which allows for different mounts of proc having different mount options even in the same pid namespace and this allows for the removal of proc_mnt which will trivially the first mount of proc to honor it's mount options. This flushing remains an optimization. The functions pid_delete_dentry and pid_revalidate ensure that ordinary dcache management will not attempt to use dentries past the point their respective task has died. When unused the shrinker will eventually be able to remove these dentries. There is a case in de_thread where proc_flush_pid can be called early for a given pid. Which winds up being safe (if suboptimal) as this is just an optiimization. Only pid directories are put on the list as the other per pid files are children of those directories and d_invalidate on the directory will get them as well. So that the pid can be used during flushing it's reference count is taken in release_task and dropped in proc_flush_pid. Further the call of proc_flush_pid is moved after the tasklist_lock is released in release_task so that it is certain that the pid has already been unhashed when flushing it taking place. This removes a small race where a dentry could recreated. As struct pid is supposed to be small and I need a per pid lock I reuse the only lock that currently exists in struct pid the the wait_pidfd.lock. The net result is that this adds all of this functionality with just a little extra list management overhead and a single extra pointer in struct pid. v2: Initialize pid->inodes. I somehow failed to get that initialization into the initial version of the patch. A boot failure was reported by "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>", and failure to initialize that pid->inodes matches all of the reported symptoms. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
