Jamie Iles 2d39b3cd34 signal: protect SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE from unintentional clearing.
Since commit 00cd5c37af ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we
can now trace init processes.  init is initially protected with
SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but
there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can
be implicitly cleared.

This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing.  For
example, running:

  while true; do kill -STOP 1; done &
  strace -p 1

and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being
left in state TASK_STOPPED.  Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but
init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring
them.

Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED
that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

Thomas Gleixner 2456e85535 ktime: Get rid of the union
ktime is a union because the initial implementation stored the time in
scalar nanoseconds on 64 bit machine and in a endianess optimized timespec
variant for 32bit machines. The Y2038 cleanup removed the timespec variant
and switched everything to scalar nanoseconds. The union remained, but
become completely pointless.

Get rid of the union and just keep ktime_t as simple typedef of type s64.

The conversion was done with coccinelle and some manual mopping up.

Waiman Long c7be96af89 signals: avoid unnecessary taking of sighand->siglock
When running certain database workload on a high-end system with many
CPUs, it was found that spinlock contention in the sigprocmask syscalls
became a significant portion of the overall CPU cycles as shown below.

               |          |          ktskRun

Looking further into the swapcontext function in glibc, it was found that
the function always call sigprocmask() without checking if there are
changes in the signal mask.

A check was added to the __set_current_blocked() function to avoid taking
the sighand->siglock spinlock if there is no change in the signal mask.
This will prevent unneeded spinlock contention when many threads are
trying to call sigprocmask().

With this patch applied, the spinlock contention in sigprocmask() was
gone.

Nicolas Pitre baa73d9e47 posix-timers: Make them configurable
Some embedded systems have no use for them.  This removes about
25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out.

Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to
use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were
disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create,
timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete,
clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm.

The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep
syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast
majority of use cases with very little code.

Dmitry Safonov 6846351052 x86/signal: Add SA_{X32,IA32}_ABI sa_flags
Introduce new flags that defines which ABI to use on creating sigframe.
Those flags kernel will set according to sigaction syscall ABI,
which set handler for the signal being delivered.

So that will drop the dependency on TIF_IA32/TIF_X32 flags on signal deliver.
Those flags will be used only under CONFIG_COMPAT.

Similar way ARM uses sa_flags to differ in which mode deliver signal
for 26-bit applications (look at SA_THIRYTWO).

Stas Sergeev 2a74213838 signals/sigaltstack: Implement SS_AUTODISARM flag
This patch implements the SS_AUTODISARM flag that can be OR-ed with
SS_ONSTACK when forming ss_flags.

When this flag is set, sigaltstack will be disabled when entering
the signal handler; more precisely, after saving sas to uc_stack.
When leaving the signal handler, the sigaltstack is restored by
uc_stack.

When this flag is used, it is safe to switch from sighandler with
swapcontext(). Without this flag, the subsequent signal will corrupt
the state of the switched-away sighandler.

To detect the support of this functionality, one can do:

  err = sigaltstack(SS_DISABLE | SS_AUTODISARM);
  if (err && errno == EINVAL)
	unsupported();

Stas Sergeev 407bc16ad1 signals/sigaltstack: Prepare to add new SS_xxx flags
This patch adds SS_FLAG_BITS - the mask that splits sigaltstack
mode values and bit-flags. Since there is no bit-flags yet, the
mask is defined to 0. The flags are added by subsequent patches.
With every new flag, the mask should have the appropriate bit cleared.

This makes sure if some flag is tried on a kernel that doesn't
support it, the -EINVAL error will be returned, because such a
flag will be treated as an invalid mode rather than the bit-flag.

That way the existence of the particular features can be probed
at run-time.

This change was suggested by Andy Lutomirski:

Helge Deller 41b2715487 kernel/signal.c: add compile-time check for __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE
The value of __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE defines the size (including
padding) of the part of the struct siginfo that is before the union, and
it is then used to calculate the needed padding (SI_PAD_SIZE) to make
the size of struct siginfo equal to 128 (SI_MAX_SIZE) bytes.

Depending on the target architecture and word width it equals to either
3 or 4 times sizeof int.

Since the very beginning we had __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE wrong on the
parisc architecture for the 64bit kernel build.  It's even more
frustrating, because it can easily be checked at compile time if the
value was defined correctly.

This patch adds such a check for the correctness of
__ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE in the hope that it will prevent existing and
future architectures from running into the same problem.

I refrained from replacing __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE by offsetof() in
copy_siginfo() in include/asm-generic/siginfo.h, because a) it doesn't
make any difference and b) it's used in the Documentation/kmemcheck.txt
example.

I ran this patch through the 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure and only
the parisc architecture triggered as expected.  That means that this
patch should be OK for all major architectures.

Dave Hansen cd0ea35ff5 signals, pkeys: Notify userspace about protection key faults
A protection key fault is very similar to any other access error.
There must be a VMA, etc...  We even want to take the same action
(SIGSEGV) that we do with a normal access fault.

However, we do need to let userspace know that something is
different.  We do this the same way what we did with SEGV_BNDERR
with Memory Protection eXtensions (MPX): define a new SEGV code:
SEGV_PKUERR.

We add a siginfo field: si_pkey that reveals to userspace which
protection key was set on the PTE that we faulted on.  There is
no other easy way for userspace to figure this out.  They could
parse smaps but that would be a bit cruel.

We share space with in siginfo with _addr_bnd.  #BR faults from
MPX are completely separate from page faults (#PF) that trigger
from protection key violations, so we never need both at the same
time.

Note that _pkey is a 64-bit value.  The current hardware only
supports 4-bit protection keys.  We do this because there is
_plenty_ of space in _sigfault and it is possible that future
processors would support more than 4 bits of protection keys.

The x86 code to actually fill in the siginfo is in the next
patch.

Richard Weinberger 9d8a765211 kernel/signal.c: unexport sigsuspend()
sigsuspend() is nowhere used except in signal.c itself, so we can mark it
static do not pollute the global namespace.

But this patch is more than a boring cleanup patch, it fixes a real issue
on UserModeLinux.  UML has a special console driver to display ttys using
xterm, or other terminal emulators, on the host side.  Vegard reported
that sometimes UML is unable to spawn a xterm and he's facing the
following warning:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 908 at include/linux/thread_info.h:128 sigsuspend+0xab/0xc0()

It turned out that this warning makes absolutely no sense as the UML
xterm code calls sigsuspend() on the host side, at least it tries.  But
as the kernel itself offers a sigsuspend() symbol the linker choose this
one instead of the glibc wrapper.  Interestingly this code used to work
since ever but always blocked signals on the wrong side.  Some recent
kernel change made the WARN_ON() trigger and uncovered the bug.

It is a wonderful example of how much works by chance on computers. :-)

Oleg Nesterov 5fa534c987 coredump: ensure all coredumping tasks have SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP
task_will_free_mem() is wrong in many ways, and in particular the
SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is not reliable: a task can participate in the
coredumping without SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP bit set.

change zap_threads() paths to always set SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP even if
other CLONE_VM processes can't react to SIGKILL.  Fortunately, at least
oom-kill case if fine; it kills all tasks sharing the same mm, so it
should also kill the process which actually dumps the core.

The change in prepare_signal() is not strictly necessary, it just ensures
that the patch does not bring another subtle behavioural change.  But it
reminds us that this SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT/COREDUMP case needs more changes.

Oleg Nesterov 2e01fabe67 signals: kill block_all_signals() and unblock_all_signals()
It is hardly possible to enumerate all problems with block_all_signals()
and unblock_all_signals().  Just for example,

1. block_all_signals(SIGSTOP/etc) simply can't help if the caller is
   multithreaded. Another thread can dequeue the signal and force the
   group stop.

2. Even is the caller is single-threaded, it will "stop" anyway. It
   will not sleep, but it will spin in kernel space until SIGCONT or
   SIGKILL.

And a lot more. In short, this interface doesn't work at all, at least
the last 10+ years.

  Yeah the only times I played around with the DRM_LOCK stuff was when
  old drivers accidentally deadlocked - my impression is that the entire
  DRM_LOCK thing was never really tested properly ;-) Hence I'm all for

Amanieu d'Antras 26135022f8 signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_to_user
This function may copy the si_addr_lsb, si_lower and si_upper fields to
user mode when they haven't been initialized, which can leak kernel
stack data to user mode.

Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same
si_code value is shared between multiple signals.  This is solved by
checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.

Amanieu d'Antras 3c00cb5e68 signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_from_user32
This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a
positive si_code value.  The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields
in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently
between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_to_user.

copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits
of si_code.

This fixes the following information leaks:
x86:   8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
       itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32.
       (si_code = __SI_CHLD)
x86:   100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
       a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1)
sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a
       64-bit process. (si_code = any)

parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because
rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code
to a different process.  These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

Pull security subsystem updates from James Morris:
 "The main change in this kernel is Casey's generalized LSM stacking

  See

Oleg Nesterov 9e7c8f8c62 signals: don't abuse __flush_signals() in selinux_bprm_committed_creds()
selinux_bprm_committed_creds()->__flush_signals() is not right, we
shouldn't clear TIF_SIGPENDING unconditionally. There can be other
reasons for signal_pending(): freezing(), JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK, and
potentially more.

Also change this code to check fatal_signal_pending() rather than
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, it looks a bit better.

Now we can kill __flush_signals() before it finds another buggy user.

Note: this code looks racy, we can flush a signal which was sent after
the task SID has been updated.

c56fb6564dcd ("Fix a misaligned load inside ptrace_attach()") makes
jobctl an "unsigned long".  It makes sense to have the masks applied
to it match that type.  This is currently just a cosmetic change, but
it will prevent the mask from being unexpectedly truncated if we ever
end up with masks with more bits.

One instance of "signr" is an int, but I left this alone because the
mask ensures that it will never overflow.

Vladimir Davydov 69828dce7a signal: remove warning about using SI_TKILL in rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo
Sending SI_TKILL from rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo was deprecated, so now we issue
a warning on the first attempt of doing it.  We use WARN_ON_ONCE, which is
not informative and, what is worse, taints the kernel, making the trinity
syscall fuzzer complain false-positively from time to time.

It does not look like we need this warning at all, because the behaviour
changed quite a long time ago (2.6.39), and if an application relies on
the old API, it gets EPERM anyway and can issue a warning by itself.

So let us zap the warning in kernel.

Andy Lutomirski f56141e3e2 all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct
If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.

Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.

Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.

It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

Oleg Nesterov 9490592f27 signals: kill rm_from_queue(), change prepare_signal() to use for_each_thread()
rm_from_queue() doesn't make sense.  The only caller, prepare_signal(),
can use rm_from_queue_full() with the same effect.

While at it, change prepare_signal() to use for_each_thread() instead of
do/while_each_thread.

Oleg Nesterov 6114041aa7 signals: s/siginitset/sigemptyset/ in do_sigtimedwait()
Cosmetic, but siginitset(0) looks a bit strange, sigemptyset() is what
do_sigtimedwait() needs.

as wake_up_bit() documents, fix task_clear_jobctl_trapping().

Fabian Frederick f6187769da sys_sgetmask/sys_ssetmask: add CONFIG_SGETMASK_SYSCALL
sys_sgetmask and sys_ssetmask are obsolete system calls no longer
supported in libc.

This patch replaces architecture related __ARCH_WANT_SYS_SGETMAX by expert
mode configuration.That option is enabled by default for those
architectures.

Gideon Israel Dsouza 52f5684c8e kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))
To increase compiler portability there is <linux/compiler.h> which
provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs.  Eg: __weak for
__attribute__((weak)).  I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes
with the right macro in the kernel subsystem.

Mathieu Desnoyers 3ddc5b46a8 kernel-wide: fix missing validations on __get/__put/__copy_to/__copy_from_user()
I found the following pattern that leads in to interesting findings:

  grep -r "ret.*|=.*__put_user" *
  grep -r "ret.*|=.*__get_user" *
  grep -r "ret.*|=.*__copy" *

The __put_user() calls in compat_ioctl.c, ptrace compat, signal compat,
since those appear in compat code, we could probably expect the kernel
addresses not to be reachable in the lower 32-bit range, so I think they
might not be exploitable.

For the "__get_user" cases, I don't think those are exploitable: the worse
that can happen is that the kernel will copy kernel memory into in-kernel
buffers, and will fail immediately afterward.

The alpha csum_partial_copy_from_user() seems to be missing the
access_ok() check entirely.  The fix is inspired from x86.  This could
lead to information leak on alpha.  I also noticed that many architectures
map csum_partial_copy_from_user() to csum_partial_copy_generic(), but I
wonder if the latter is performing the access checks on every
architectures.
