* PM / devfreq: Add new name attribute for sysfsChanwoo Choi2020-02-051-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 2fee1a7cc6b1ce6634bb0f025be2c94a58dfa34d upstream. The commit 4585fbcb5331 ("PM / devfreq: Modify the device name as devfreq(X) for sysfs") changed the node name to devfreq(x). After this commit, it is not possible to get the device name through /sys/class/devfreq/devfreq(X)/*. Add new name attribute in order to get device name.

* hwrng: omap3-rom - Fix missing clock by probing with device treeTony Lindgren2020-01-271-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 0c0ef9ea6f3f0d5979dc7b094b0a184c1a94716b ] Commit 0ed266d7ae5e ("clk: ti: omap3: cleanup unnecessary clock aliases") removed old omap3 clock framework aliases but caused omap3-rom-rng to stop working with clock not found error. Based on discussions on the mailing list it was requested by Tero Kristo that it would be best to fix this issue by probing omap3-rom-rng using device tree to provide a proper clk property. The other option would be to add back the missing clock alias, but that does not help moving things forward with removing old legacy platform_data. Let's also add a proper device tree binding and keep it together with the fix.

* mm, thp, proc: report THP eligibility for each vmaMichal Hocko2019-12-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 7635d9cbe8327e131a1d3d8517dc186c2796ce2e ] Userspace falls short when trying to find out whether a specific memory range is eligible for THP. There are usecases that would like to know that http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com : This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp : but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation : issue. The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration knob. Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in /proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into __transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers. __show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of line due to include dependency issues).

* x86/speculation: Fix incorrect MDS/TAA mitigation statusWaiman Long2019-12-013-3/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 64870ed1b12e235cfca3f6c6da75b542c973ff78 upstream. For MDS vulnerable processors with TSX support, enabling either MDS or TAA mitigations will enable the use of VERW to flush internal processor buffers at the right code path. IOW, they are either both mitigated or both not. However, if the command line options are inconsistent, the vulnerabilites sysfs files may not report the mitigation status correctly. For example, with only the "mds=off" option: vulnerabilities/mds:Vulnerable; SMT vulnerable vulnerabilities/tsx_async_abort:Mitigation: Clear CPU buffers; SMT vulnerable The mds vulnerabilities file has wrong status in this case. Similarly, the taa vulnerability file will be wrong with mds mitigation on, but taa off. Change taa_select_mitigation() to sync up the two mitigation status and have them turned off if both "mds=off" and "tsx_async_abort=off" are present. Update documentation to emphasize the fact that both "mds=off" and "tsx_async_abort=off" have to be specified together for processors that are affected by both TAA and MDS to be effective.

With some Intel processors, putting the same virtual address in the TLB as both a 4 KiB and 2 MiB page can confuse the instruction fetch unit and cause the processor to issue a machine check resulting in a CPU lockup. Unfortunately when EPT page tables use huge pages, it is possible for a malicious guest to cause this situation. Add a knob to mark huge pages as non-executable. When the nx_huge_pages parameter is enabled (and we are using EPT), all huge pages are marked as NX. If the guest attempts to execute in one of those pages, the page is broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable. This is not an issue for shadow paging (except nested EPT), because then the host is in control of TLB flushes and the problematic situation cannot happen. With nested EPT, again the nested guest can cause problems shadow and direct EPT is treated in the same way.

Some processors may incur a machine check error possibly resulting in an unrecoverable CPU lockup when an instruction fetch encounters a TLB multi-hit in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is changed along with either the physical address or cache type. The relevant erratum can be found here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205195 There are other processors affected for which the erratum does not fully disclose the impact. This issue affects both bare-metal x86 page tables and EPT. It can be mitigated by either eliminating the use of large pages or by using careful TLB invalidations when changing the page size in the page tables. Just like Spectre, Meltdown, L1TF and MDS, a new bit has been allocated in MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) and will be set on CPUs which are mitigated against this issue.

This expiration of unused slice results in applications not being able to utilize the quota for which they are allocated. The non-expiration of per-cpu slices was recently fixed by 'commit 512ac999d275 ("sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift condition")'. Prior to that it appears that this had been broken since at least 'commit 51f2176d74ac ("sched/fair: Fix unlocked reads of some cfs_b->quota/period")' which was introduced in v3.16-rc1 in 2014. That added the following conditional which resulted in slices never being expired. if (cfs_rq->runtime_expires != cfs_b->runtime_expires) { /* extend local deadline, drift is bounded above by 2 ticks */ cfs_rq->runtime_expires += TICK_NSEC; Because this was broken for nearly 5 years, and has recently been fixed and is now being noticed by many users running kubernetes (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/67577) it is my opinion that the mechanisms around expiring runtime should be removed altogether. This allows quota already allocated to per-cpu run-queues to live longer than the period boundary. This allows threads on runqueues that do not use much CPU to continue to use their remaining slice over a longer period of time than cpu.cfs_period_us. However, this helps prevent the above condition of hitting throttling while also not fully utilizing your cpu quota. This theoretically allows a machine to use slightly more than its allotted quota in some periods. This overflow would be bounded by the remaining quota left on each per-cpu runqueueu. This is typically no more than min_cfs_rq_runtime=1ms per cpu. For CPU bound tasks this will change nothing, as they should theoretically fully utilize all of their quota in each period. For user-interactive tasks as described above this provides a much better user/application experience as their cpu utilization will more closely match the amount they requested when they hit throttling. This means that cpu limits no longer strictly apply per period for non-cpu bound applications, but that they are still accurate over longer timeframes. This greatly improves performance of high-thread-count, non-cpu bound applications with low cfs_quota_us allocation on high-core-count machines. In the case of an artificial testcase (10ms/100ms of quota on 80 CPU machine), this commit resulted in almost 30x performance improvement, while still maintaining correct cpu quota restrictions.

* x86/xen: Return from panic notifierBoris Ostrovsky2019-11-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit c6875f3aacf2a5a913205accddabf0bfb75cac76 ] Currently execution of panic() continues until Xen's panic notifier (xen_panic_event()) is called at which point we make a hypercall that never returns. This means that any notifier that is supposed to be called later as well as significant part of panic() code (such as pstore writes from kmsg_dump()) is never executed. There is no reason for xen_panic_event() to be this last point in execution since panic()'s emergency_restart() will call into xen_emergency_restart() from where we can perform our hypercall. Nevertheless, we will provide xen_legacy_crash boot option that will preserve original behavior during crash. This option could be used, for example, if running kernel dumper (which happens after panic notifiers) is undesirable.

* ovl: fix regression caused by overlapping layers detectionAmir Goldstein2019-09-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 0be0bfd2de9dfdd2098a9c5b14bdd8f739c9165d upstream. Once upon a time, commit 2cac0c00a6cd ("ovl: get exclusive ownership on upper/work dirs") in v4.13 added some sanity checks on overlayfs layers. This change caused a docker regression. The root cause was mount leaks by docker, which as far as I know, still exist. To mitigate the regression, commit 85fdee1eef1a ("ovl: fix regression caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection") in v4.14 turned the mount errors into warnings for the default index=off configuration. Recently, commit 146d62e5a586 ("ovl: detect overlapping layers") in v5.2, re-introduced exclusive upper/work dir checks regardless of index=off configuration. This changes the status quo and mount leak related bug reports have started to re-surface. Restore the status quo to fix the regressions. To clarify, index=off does NOT relax overlapping layers check for this ovelayfs mount. index=off only relaxes exclusive upper/work dir checks with another overlayfs mount. To cover the part of overlapping layers detection that used the exclusive upper/work dir checks to detect overlap with self upper/work dir, add a trap also on the work base dir.

* x86/CPU/AMD: Clear RDRAND CPUID bit on AMD family 15h/16hTom Lendacky2019-08-291-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit c49a0a80137c7ca7d6ced4c812c9e07a949f6f24 upstream. There have been reports of RDRAND issues after resuming from suspend on some AMD family 15h and family 16h systems. This issue stems from a BIOS not performing the proper steps during resume to ensure RDRAND continues to function properly. RDRAND support is indicated by CPUID Fn00000001_ECX[30]. This bit can be reset by clearing MSR C001_1004[62]. Any software that checks for RDRAND support using CPUID, including the kernel, will believe that RDRAND is not supported. Update the CPU initialization to clear the RDRAND CPUID bit for any family 15h and 16h processor that supports RDRAND. If it is known that the family 15h or family 16h system does not have an RDRAND resume issue or that the system will not be placed in suspend, the "rdrand=force" kernel parameter can be used to stop the clearing of the RDRAND CPUID bit. Additionally, update the suspend and resume path to save and restore the MSR C001_1004 value to ensure that the RDRAND CPUID setting remains in place after resuming from suspend. Note, that clearing the RDRAND CPUID bit does not prevent a processor that normally supports the RDRAND instruction from executing it. So any code that determined the support based on family and model won't #UD.

Enable those features where applicable. The mitigations may be disabled with "nospectre_v1" or "mitigations=off". There are different features which can affect the risk of attack: - When FSGSBASE is enabled, unprivileged users are able to place any value in GS, using the wrgsbase instruction. This means they can write a GS value which points to any value in kernel space, which can be useful with the following gadget in an interrupt/exception/NMI handler: if (coming from user space) swapgs mov %gs:<percpu_offset>, %reg1 // dependent load or store based on the value of %reg // for example: mov %(reg1), %reg2 If an interrupt is coming from user space, and the entry code speculatively skips the swapgs (due to user branch mistraining), it may speculatively execute the GS-based load and a subsequent dependent load or store, exposing the kernel data to an L1 side channel leak. Note that, on Intel, a similar attack exists in the above gadget when coming from kernel space, if the swapgs gets speculatively executed to switch back to the user GS. On AMD, this variant isn't possible because swapgs is serializing with respect to future GS-based accesses. NOTE: The FSGSBASE patch set hasn't been merged yet, so the above case doesn't exist quite yet. - When FSGSBASE is disabled, the issue is mitigated somewhat because unprivileged users must use prctl(ARCH_SET_GS) to set GS, which restricts GS values to user space addresses only. That means the gadget would need an additional step, since the target kernel address needs to be read from user space first. Something like: if (coming from user space) swapgs mov %gs:<percpu_offset>, %reg1 mov (%reg1), %reg2 // dependent load or store based on the value of %reg2 // for example: mov %(reg2), %reg3 It's difficult to audit for this gadget in all the handlers, so while there are no known instances of it, it's entirely possible that it exists somewhere (or could be introduced in the future). Without tooling to analyze all such code paths, consider it vulnerable. Effects of SMAP on the !FSGSBASE case: - If SMAP is enabled, and the CPU reports RDCL_NO (i.e., not susceptible to Meltdown), the kernel is prevented from speculatively reading user space memory, even L1 cached values. This effectively disables the !FSGSBASE attack vector. - If SMAP is enabled, but the CPU *is* susceptible to Meltdown, SMAP still prevents the kernel from speculatively reading user space memory. But it does *not* prevent the kernel from reading the user value from L1, if it has already been cached. This is probably only a small hurdle for an attacker to overcome.

This then allows the compiler to re-order like so: atomic_inc(u); *x = 1; smp_mb__after_atomic(); r0 = *y; Which the CPU is then allowed to re-order (under TSO rules) like: atomic_inc(u); r0 = *y; *x = 1; And this very much was not intended.

* futex: Update comments and docs about return values of arch futex codeWill Deacon2019-07-031-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 427503519739e779c0db8afe876c1b33f3ac60ae upstream. The architecture implementations of 'arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser()' and 'futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic()' are permitted to return only -EFAULT, -EAGAIN or -ENOSYS in the case of failure. Update the comments in the asm-generic/ implementation and also a stray reference in the robust futex documentation.

* tcp: add tcp_min_snd_mss sysctlEric Dumazet2019-06-171-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 5f3e2bf008c2221478101ee72f5cb4654b9fc363 upstream. Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or SYN/ACK messages. This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu overhead. Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40 bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload. In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value to a saner value. We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility reasons. Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value in commit c39508d6f118 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.") from 64 to 88. We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

* doc: Cope with Sphinx logging deprecationsJonathan Corbet2019-06-093-21/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 096ea522e84ea68f8e6c41e5e7294731a81e29bc upstream. Recent versions of sphinx will emit messages like: Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:103: RemovedInSphinx20Warning: app.warning() is now deprecated. Use sphinx.util.logging instead. Switch to sphinx.util.logging to make this unsightly message go away. Alas, that interface was only added in version 1.6, so we have to add a version check to keep things working with older sphinxes.

* doc: Cope with the deprecation of AutoReporterJonathan Corbet2019-06-091-8/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 2404dad1f67f8917e30fc22a85e0dbcc85b99955 upstream. AutoReporter is going away; recent versions of sphinx emit a warning like: Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:125: RemovedInSphinx20Warning: AutodocReporter is now deprecated. Use sphinx.util.docutils.switch_source_input() instead. Make the switch. But switch_source_input() only showed up in 1.7, so we have to do ugly version checks to keep things working in older versions.
