David Rientjes 668f9abbd4 mm: close PageTail race
Commit bf6bddf192 ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for
ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction
which dereferences page->first_page if PageTail(page).

This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the
aforementioned page_count(page).  Indeed, anything that does
compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with
prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page->first_page
pointer.

This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that
deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head()
implementation.  This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that
if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither
NULL nor dangling.  The patch then adds a store memory barrier to
prep_compound_page() to ensure page->first_page is set.

This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are
expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the
memory barriers are unfortunately required.

Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier
during init since no race is possible.

Greg Pearson 38dfac843c vmcore: prevent PT_NOTE p_memsz overflow during header update
Currently, update_note_header_size_elf64() and
update_note_header_size_elf32() will add the size of a PT_NOTE entry to
real_sz even if that causes real_sz to exceeds max_sz.  This patch
corrects the while loop logic in those routines to ensure that does not
happen and prints a warning if a PT_NOTE entry is dropped.  If zero
PT_NOTE entries are found or this condition is encountered because the
only entry was dropped, a warning is printed and an error is returned.

One possible negative side effect of exceeding the max_sz limit is an
allocation failure in merge_note_headers_elf64() or
merge_note_headers_elf32() which would produce console output such as
the following while booting the crash kernel.

  vmalloc: allocation failure: 14076997632 bytes

  kdump: saving vmcore-dmesg.txt failed

This type of failure has been seen on a four socket prototype system
with certain memory configurations.  Most PT_NOTE sections have a single
entry similar to:

  n_namesz = 0x5
  n_descsz = 0x150
  n_type   = 0x1

Occasionally, a second entry is encountered with very large n_namesz and
n_descsz sizes:

  n_namesz = 0x80000008
  n_descsz = 0x510ae163
  n_type   = 0x80000008

Not yet sure of the source of these extra entries, they seem bogus, but
they shouldn't cause crash dump to fail.

Oleg Nesterov 185ee40ee7 fs/proc/array.c: change do_task_stat() to use while_each_thread()
Change the remaining next_thread (ab)users to use while_each_thread().

The last user which should be changed is next_tid(), but we can't do this
now.

__exit_signal() and complete_signal() are fine, they actually need
next_thread() logic.

This patch (of 3):

do_task_stat() can use while_each_thread(), no changes in
the compiled code.

Paul Gortmaker abaf3787ac fs/proc: don't use module_init for non-modular core code
PROC_FS is a bool, so this code is either present or absent.  It will
never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is
rather misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to
obviously non-modular code, and that would be ugly at best.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs.  one of the
priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code)
will thus change these registrations from level 6-device to level 5-fs
(i.e.  slightly earlier).  However no observable impact of that small
difference has been observed during testing, or is expected.

Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the
registration of vmcore_init as an initcall.

Dave Jones c1d867a54d fs/proc/proc_devtree.c: remove empty /proc/device-tree when no openfirmware exists.
Distribution kernels might want to build in support for /proc/device-tree
for kernels that might end up running on hardware that doesn't support
openfirmware.  This results in an empty /proc/device-tree existing.
Remove it if the OFW root node doesn't exist.

This situation actually confuses grub2, resulting in install failures.
grub2 sees the /proc/device-tree and picks the wrong install target cf.
http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/grub/trunk/grub/annotate/4300/util/grub-install.in#L311
grub should be more robust, but still, leaving an empty proc dir seems
pointless.

Oleg Nesterov 9f6e963f06 proc: fix ->f_pos overflows in first_tid()
1. proc_task_readdir()->first_tid() path truncates f_pos to int, this
   is wrong even on 64bit.

   We could check that f_pos < PID_MAX or even INT_MAX in
   proc_task_readdir(), but this patch simply checks the potential
   overflow in first_tid(), this check is nop on 64bit.  We do not care if
   it was negative and the new unsigned value is huge, all we need to
   ensure is that we never wrongly return !NULL.

2. Remove the 2nd "nr != 0" check before get_nr_threads(),
   nr_threads == 0 is not distinguishable from !pid_task() above.

Oleg Nesterov d855a4b79f proc: don't (ab)use ->group_leader in proc_task_readdir() paths
proc_task_readdir() does not really need "leader", first_tid() has to
revalidate it anyway.  Just pass proc_pid(inode) to first_tid() instead,
it can do pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) itself and read ->group_leader only if
necessary.

The patch also extracts the "inode is dead" code from
pid_delete_dentry(dentry) into the new trivial helper,
proc_inode_is_dead(inode), proc_task_readdir() uses it to return -ENOENT
if this dir was removed.

This is a bit racy, but the race is very inlikely and the getdents() after
openndir() can see the empty "." + ".." dir only once.

Oleg Nesterov 940fe4793a proc: fix the potential use-after-free in first_tid()
proc_task_readdir() verifies that the result of get_proc_task() is
pid_alive() and thus its ->group_leader is fine too.  However this is not
necessarily true after rcu_read_unlock(), we need to recheck this again
after first_tid() does rcu_read_lock().  Otherwise
leader->thread_group.next (used by next_thread()) can be invalid if the
rcu grace period expires in between.

The race is subtle and unlikely, but still it is possible afaics.  To
simplify lets ignore the "likely" case when tid != 0, f_version can be
cleared by proc_task_operations->llseek().

Suppose we have a main thread M and its subthread T.  Suppose that f_pos
== 3, iow first_tid() should return T.  Now suppose that the following
happens between rcu_read_unlock() and rcu_read_lock():

	1. T execs and becomes the new leader. This removes M from
	    ->thread_group but next_thread(M) is still T.

	2. T creates another thread X which does exec as well, T
	   goes away.

	3. X creates another subthread, this increments nr_threads.

	4. first_tid() does next_thread(M) and returns the already
	   dead T.

Note also that we need 2.  and 3.  only because of get_nr_threads() check,
and this check was supposed to be optimization only.

Oleg Nesterov 74e37200de proc: cleanup/simplify get_task_state/task_state_array
get_task_state() and task_state_array[] look confusing and suboptimal, it
is not clear what it can actually report to user-space and
task_state_array[] blows .data for no reason.

1. state = (tsk->state & TASK_REPORT) | tsk->exit_state is not
   clear. TASK_REPORT is self-documenting but it is not clear
   what ->exit_state can add.

   Move the potential exit_state's (EXIT_ZOMBIE and EXIT_DEAD)
   into TASK_REPORT and use it to calculate the final result.

2. With the change above it is obvious that task_state_array[]
   has the unused entries just to make BUILD_BUG_ON() happy.

   Change this BUILD_BUG_ON() to use TASK_REPORT rather than
   TASK_STATE_MAX and shrink task_state_array[].

3. Turn the "while (state)" loop into fls(state).

Naoya Horiguchi e3bba3c3c9 fs/proc/page.c: add PageAnon check to surely detect thp
stable_page_flags() checks !PageHuge && PageTransCompound && PageLRU to
know that a specified page is thp or not.  But sometimes it's not enough
and we fail to detect thp when the thp is on pagevec.  This happens only
for a few seconds after LRU list operations, but it makes it difficult
to control our applications depending on this flag.

So this patch adds another check PageAnon to detect thps on pagevec.  It
might not give the future extensibility for thp pagecache, but it's OK
at least for now.

Rik van Riel 34e431b0ae /proc/meminfo: provide estimated available memory
Many load balancing and workload placing programs check /proc/meminfo to
estimate how much free memory is available.  They generally do this by
adding up "free" and "cached", which was fine ten years ago, but is
pretty much guaranteed to be wrong today.

It is wrong because Cached includes memory that is not freeable as page
cache, for example shared memory segments, tmpfs, and ramfs, and it does
not include reclaimable slab memory, which can take up a large fraction
of system memory on mostly idle systems with lots of files.

Currently, the amount of memory that is available for a new workload,
without pushing the system into swap, can be estimated from MemFree,
Active(file), Inactive(file), and SReclaimable, as well as the "low"
watermarks from /proc/zoneinfo.

However, this may change in the future, and user space really should not
be expected to know kernel internals to come up with an estimate for the
amount of free memory.

It is more convenient to provide such an estimate in /proc/meminfo.  If
things change in the future, we only have to change it in one place.

Jan Beulich ae5758a1a7 procfs: also fix proc_reg_get_unmapped_area() for !MMU case
Commit fad1a86e25 ("procfs: call default get_unmapped_area on
MMU-present architectures"), as its title says, took care of only the
MMU case, leaving the !MMU side still in the regressed state (returning
-EIO in all cases where pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area is NULL).

From the fad1a86e25 changelog:

 "Commit c4fe244857 ("sparc: fix PCI device proc file mmap(2)") added
  proc_reg_get_unmapped_area in proc_reg_file_ops and
  proc_reg_file_ops_no_compat, by which now mmap always returns EIO if
  get_unmapped_area method is not defined for the target procfs file, which
  causes regression of mmap on /proc/vmcore.

  To address this issue, like get_unmapped_area(), call default
  current->mm->get_unmapped_area on MMU-present architectures if
  pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area, i.e.  the one in actual file operation
  in the procfs file, is not defined"

If a new mempolicy mode is introduced and no string is defined for it,
just warn and return "unknown".

If the buffer is too small, just truncate the string and return, the
same behavior as snprintf().

This also fixes a bug where there was no NULL-byte termination when doing

HATAYAMA Daisuke fad1a86e25 procfs: call default get_unmapped_area on MMU-present architectures
Commit c4fe244857 ("sparc: fix PCI device proc file mmap(2)") added
proc_reg_get_unmapped_area in proc_reg_file_ops and
proc_reg_file_ops_no_compat, by which now mmap always returns EIO if
get_unmapped_area method is not defined for the target procfs file,
which causes regression of mmap on /proc/vmcore.

To address this issue, like get_unmapped_area(), call default
current->mm->get_unmapped_area on MMU-present architectures if
pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area, i.e.  the one in actual file
operation in the procfs file, is not defined.

HATAYAMA Daisuke 2cbe3b0af8 procfs: fix unintended truncation of returned mapped address
Currently, proc_reg_get_unmapped_area truncates upper 32-bit of the
mapped virtual address returned from get_unmapped_area method in
pde->proc_fops due to the variable rv of signed integer on x86_64.  This
is too small to have vitual address of unsigned long on x86_64 since on
x86_64, signed integer is of 4 bytes while unsigned long is of 8 bytes.
To fix this issue, use unsigned long instead.

Fixes a regression added in commit c4fe244857 ("sparc: fix PCI device

HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPS appears to always be needed except for sparc,
but it is only used for /proc/device-teee and sparc does not enable
/proc/device-tree. So this option is redundant. Remove the option and
always enable it. This has the side effect of fixing /proc/device-tree
on arches such as arm64 which failed to define this option.

Michael Holzheu 9cb218131d vmcore: introduce remap_oldmem_pfn_range()
For zfcpdump we can't map the HSA storage because it is only available via
a read interface.  Therefore, for the new vmcore mmap feature we have
introduce a new mechanism to create mappings on demand.

This patch introduces a new architecture function remap_oldmem_pfn_range()
that should be used to create mappings with remap_pfn_range() for oldmem
areas that can be directly mapped.  For zfcpdump this is everything
besides of the HSA memory.  For the areas that are not mapped by
remap_oldmem_pfn_range() a generic vmcore a new generic vmcore fault
handler mmap_vmcore_fault() is called.

This handler works as follows:

* Get already available or new page from page cache (find_or_create_page)
* Check if /proc/vmcore page is filled with data (PageUptodate)
* If yes:
  Return that page
* If no:
  Fill page using __vmcore_read(), set PageUptodate, and return page

Michael Holzheu be8a8d069e vmcore: introduce ELF header in new memory feature
For s390 we want to use /proc/vmcore for our SCSI stand-alone dump
(zfcpdump).  We have support where the first HSA_SIZE bytes are saved into
a hypervisor owned memory area (HSA) before the kdump kernel is booted.
When the kdump kernel starts, it is restricted to use only HSA_SIZE bytes.

The advantages of this mechanism are:

 * No crashkernel memory has to be defined in the old kernel.
 * Early boot problems (before kexec_load has been done) can be dumped
 * Non-Linux systems can be dumped.

We modify the s390 copy_oldmem_page() function to read from the HSA memory
if memory below HSA_SIZE bytes is requested.

Since we cannot use the kexec tool to load the kernel in this scenario,
we have to build the ELF header in the 2nd (kdump/new) kernel.

So with the following patch set we would like to introduce the new
function that the ELF header for /proc/vmcore can be created in the 2nd
kernel memory.

The following steps are done during zfcpdump execution:

1.  Production system crashes
2.  User boots a SCSI disk that has been prepared with the zfcpdump tool
3.  Hypervisor saves CPU state of boot CPU and HSA_SIZE bytes of memory into HSA
4.  Boot loader loads kernel into low memory area
5.  Kernel boots and uses only HSA_SIZE bytes of memory
6.  Kernel saves registers of non-boot CPUs
7.  Kernel does memory detection for dump memory map
8.  Kernel creates ELF header for /proc/vmcore
9.  /proc/vmcore uses this header for initialization
10. The zfcpdump user space reads /proc/vmcore to write dump to SCSI disk
    - copy_oldmem_page() copies from HSA for memory below HSA_SIZE
    - copy_oldmem_page() copies from real memory for memory above HSA_SIZE

Currently for s390 we create the ELF core header in the 2nd kernel with a
small trick.  We relocate the addresses in the ELF header in a way that
for the /proc/vmcore code it seems to be in the 1st kernel (old) memory
and the read_from_oldmem() returns the correct data.  This allows the
/proc/vmcore code to use the ELF header in the 2nd kernel.

This patch:

Exchange the old mechanism with the new and much cleaner function call
override feature that now offcially allows to create the ELF core header
in the 2nd kernel.

To use the new feature the following function have to be defined
by the architecture backend code to read from new memory:

 * elfcorehdr_alloc: Allocate ELF header

Oleg Nesterov 96d0df79f2 proc: make proc_fd_permission() thread-friendly
proc_fd_permission() says "process can still access /proc/self/fd after it
has executed a setuid()", but the "task_pid() = proc_pid() check only
helps if the task is group leader, /proc/self points to
/proc/<leader-pid>.

Change this check to use task_tgid() so that the whole thread group can
access its /proc/self/fd or /proc/<tid-of-sub-thread>/fd.

Notes:
	- CLONE_THREAD does not require CLONE_FILES so task->files
	  can differ, but I don't think this can lead to any security
	  problem. And this matches same_thread_group() in
	  __ptrace_may_access().

	- /proc/self should probably point to /proc/<thread-tid>, but
	  it is too late to change the rules. Perhaps it makes sense
	  to add /proc/thread though.

Test-case:

	void *tfunc(void *arg)
	{
		assert(opendir("/proc/self/fd"));
		return NULL;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		pthread_t t;
		pthread_create(&t, NULL, tfunc, NULL);
		pthread_join(t, NULL);
		return 0;
	}

fails if, say, this executable is not readable and suid_dumpable = 0.

Chen Gang a3c039929d fs/proc/task_mmu.c: check the return value of mpol_to_str()
mpol_to_str() may fail, and not fill the buffer (e.g. -EINVAL), so need
check about it, or buffer may not be zero based, and next seq_printf()
will cause issue.

The failure return need after mpol_cond_put() to match get_vma_policy().

Cyrill Gorcunov d9104d1ca9 mm: track vma changes with VM_SOFTDIRTY bit
Pavel reported that in case if vma area get unmapped and then mapped (or
expanded) in-place, the soft dirty tracker won't be able to recognize this
situation since it works on pte level and ptes are get zapped on unmap,
loosing soft dirty bit of course.

So to resolve this situation we need to track actions on vma level, there
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag comes in.  When new vma area created (or old expanded)
we set this bit, and keep it here until application calls for clearing
soft dirty bit.

Thus when user space application track memory changes now it can detect if
vma area is renewed.

Linus Torvalds c7c4591db6 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
 "This is an assorted mishmash of small cleanups, enhancements and bug
  fixes.

  The major theme is user namespace mount restrictions.  nsown_capable
  is killed as it encourages not thinking about details that need to be
  considered.  A very hard to hit pid namespace exiting bug was finally
  tracked and fixed.  A couple of cleanups to the basic namespace
  infrastructure.

  Finally there is an enhancement that makes per user namespace
  capabilities usable as capabilities, and an enhancement that allows
  the per userns root to nice other processes in the user namespace"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
  userns:  Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy
  capabilities: allow nice if we are privileged
  pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD
  userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace.
  namespaces: Simplify copy_namespaces so it is clear what is going on.
  pidns: Fix hang in zap_pid_ns_processes by sending a potentially extra wakeup
  sysfs: Restrict mounting sysfs
  userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted
  vfs: Don't copy mount bind mounts of /proc/<pid>/ns/mnt between namespaces
  kernel/nsproxy.c: Improving a snippet of code.
  proc: Restrict mounting the proc filesystem
  vfs: Lock in place mounts from more privileged users

Notice how it adds wrapper around ->mmap but doesn't do it around ->get_unmapped_area.
Add wrapper around ->get_unmapped_area.

Eric W. Biederman e51db73532 userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted
Rely on the fact that another flavor of the filesystem is already
mounted and do not rely on state in the user namespace.

Verify that the mounted filesystem is not covered in any significant
way.  I would love to verify that the previously mounted filesystem
has no mounts on top but there are at least the directories
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc and /sys/fs/cgroup/ that exist explicitly
for other filesystems to mount on top of.

Refactor the test into a function named fs_fully_visible and call that
function from the mount routines of proc and sysfs.  This makes this
test local to the filesystems involved and the results current of when
the mounts take place, removing a weird threading of the user
namespace, the mount namespace and the filesystems themselves.

Eric W. Biederman aee1c13dd0 proc: Restrict mounting the proc filesystem
Don't allow mounting the proc filesystem unless the caller has
CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights over the pid namespace.  The principle here is if
you create or have capabilities over it you can mount it, otherwise
you get to live with what other people have mounted.

Andy pointed out that this is needed to prevent users in a user
namespace from remounting proc and specifying different hidepid and gid
options on already existing proc mounts.
