| * fs: seq_file - add event counter to simplify poll() supportKay Sievers2011-07-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moving the event counter into the dynamically allocated 'struc seq_file' allows poll() support without the need to allocate its own tracking structure. All current users are switched over to use the new counter.

|\ | | | | | | | | * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: arch/tile: more /proc and /sys file support
| * arch/tile: more /proc and /sys file supportChris Metcalf2011-05-271-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change introduces a few of the less controversial /proc and /proc/sys interfaces for tile, along with sysfs attributes for various things that were originally proposed as /proc/tile files. It also adjusts the "hardwall" proc API. Arnd Bergmann reviewed the initial arch/tile submission, which included a complete set of all the /proc/tile and /proc/sys/tile knobs that we had added in a somewhat ad hoc way during initial development, and provided feedback on where most of them should go. One knob turned out to be similar enough to the existing /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace that it was re-implemented to use that model instead. Another knob was /proc/tile/grid, which reported the "grid" dimensions of a tile chip (e.g. 8x8 processors = 64-core chip). Arnd suggested looking at sysfs for that, so this change moves that information to a pair of sysfs attributes (chip_width and chip_height) in the /sys/devices/system/cpu directory. We also put the "chip_serial" and "chip_revision" information from our old /proc/tile/board file as attributes in /sys/devices/system/cpu. Other information collected via hypervisor APIs is now placed in /sys/hypervisor. We create a /sys/hypervisor/type file (holding the constant string "tilera") to be parallel with the Xen use of /sys/hypervisor/type holding "xen". We create three top-level files, "version" (the hypervisor's own version), "config_version" (the version of the configuration file), and "hvconfig" (the contents of the configuration file). The remaining information from our old /proc/tile/board and /proc/tile/switch files becomes an attribute group appearing under /sys/hypervisor/board/. Finally, after some feedback from Arnd Bergmann for the previous version of this patch, the /proc/tile/hardwall file is split up into two conceptual parts. First, a directory /proc/tile/hardwall/ which contains one file per active hardwall, each file named after the hardwall's ID and holding a cpulist that says which cpus are enclosed by the hardwall. Second, a /proc/PID file "hardwall" that is either empty (for non-hardwall-using processes) or contains the hardwall ID. Finally, this change pushes the /proc/sys/tile/unaligned_fixup/ directory, with knobs controlling the kernel code for handling the fixup of unaligned exceptions.

* | fs/proc/vmcore.c: add hook to read_from_oldmem() to check for non-ram pagesOlaf Hering2011-05-261-3/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The balloon driver in a Xen guest frees guest pages and marks them as mmio. When the kernel crashes and the crash kernel attempts to read the oldmem via /proc/vmcore a read from ballooned pages will generate 100% load in dom0 because Xen asks qemu-dm for the page content. Since the reads come in as 8byte requests each ballooned page is tried 512 times. With this change a hook can be registered which checks wether the given pfn is really ram. The hook has to return a value > 0 for ram pages, a value < 0 on error (because the hypercall is not known) and 0 for non-ram pages. This will reduce the time to read /proc/vmcore. Without this change a 512M guest with 128M crashkernel region needs 200 seconds to read it, with this change it takes just 2 seconds.

(1) If ppos parameter is wrong, mm refcount will be leak. (2) If count parameter is 0, mm refcount will be leak too. (3) If the current task is sleeping in kmalloc() and the system is out of memory and oom-killer kill the proc associated task, mm_refcount prevent the task free its memory. then system may hang up. <Quote Hugh's explain why we shold call kmalloc() before get_mm()> check_mem_permission gets a reference to the mm. If we __get_free_page after check_mem_permission, imagine what happens if the system is out of memory, and the mm we're looking at is selected for killing by the OOM killer: while we wait in __get_free_page for more memory, no memory is freed from the selected mm because it cannot reach exit_mmap while we hold that reference. This patch fixes the above three.

* | mm: extract exe_file handling from procfsJiri Slaby2011-05-261-51/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setup and cleanup of mm_struct->exe_file is currently done in fs/proc/. This was because exe_file was needed only for /proc/<pid>/exe. Since we will need the exe_file functionality also for core dumps (so core name can contain full binary path), built this functionality always into the kernel. To achieve that move that out of proc FS to the kernel/ where in fact it should belong. By doing that we can make dup_mm_exe_file static. Also we can drop linux/proc_fs.h inclusion in fs/exec.c and kernel/fork.c.

This addresses three specific problems that can make namespaces hard to work with. - Namespaces require a dedicated process to pin them in memory. - It is not possible to use a namespace unless you are the child of the original creator. - Namespaces don't have names that userspace can use to talk about them. The namespace files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ can be opened and the file descriptor can be used to talk about a specific namespace, and to keep the specified namespace alive. A namespace can be kept alive by either holding the file descriptor open or bind mounting the file someplace else. aka: mount --bind /proc/self/ns/net /some/filesystem/path mount --bind /proc/self/fd/<N> /some/filesystem/path This allows namespaces to be named with userspace policy. It requires additional support to make use of these filedescriptors and that will be comming in the following patches. Acked-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Since the number of NUMA nodes can be very large, this structure is not a candidate for stack allocation. Instead of going thru a kmalloc()+kfree() cycle each time show_numa_map() is invoked, perform the allocation just once when /proc/pid/numa_maps is opened. Performing the allocation when numa_maps is opened, and thus before a reference to the target tasks mm is taken, eliminates a potential stalemate condition in the oom-killer as originally described by Hugh Dickins: ... imagine what happens if the system is out of memory, and the mm we're looking at is selected for killing by the OOM killer: while we wait in __get_free_page for more memory, no memory is freed from the selected mm because it cannot reach exit_mmap while we hold that reference.

* | / Don't lock guardpage if the stack is growing upMikulas Patocka2011-05-091-5/+7
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too. This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch. [ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and share the infrstructure with the /proc bits. Tested on ia64 that has both grow-up and grow-down segments - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mikulas@artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> Tested-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When m_start returns an error, the seq_file logic will still call m_stop with that error entry, so we'd better make sure that we check it before using it as a vma. Introduced by commit ec6fd8a4355c ("report errors in /proc/*/*map* sanely"), which replaced NULL with various ERR_PTR() cases. (On ia64, you happen to get a unaligned fault instead of a page fault, since the address used is generally some random error code like -EPERM) Reported-by: Anca Emanuel <anca.emanuel@gmail.com> Reported-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Américo Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Cc: Stephen Wilson <wilsons@start.ca> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All of those are rw-r--r-- and all are broken for suid - if you open a file before the target does suid-root exec, you'll be still able to access it. For personality it's not a big deal, but for syscall and stack it's a real problem. Fix: check that task is tracable for you at the time of read(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change allows us to take advantage of access_remote_vm(), which in turn eliminates a security issue with the mem_write() implementation. The previous implementation of mem_write() was insecure since the target task could exec a setuid-root binary between the permission check and the actual write. Holding a reference to the target mm_struct eliminates this vulnerability. Signed-off-by: Stephen Wilson <wilsons@start.ca> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid a potential race when task exec's and we get a new ->mm but check against the old credentials in ptrace_may_access(). Holding of the mutex is implemented by factoring out the body of the code into a helper function __check_mem_permission(). Performing this factorization now simplifies upcoming changes and minimizes churn in the diff's. Signed-off-by: Stephen Wilson <wilsons@start.ca> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change makes mem_write() observe the same constraints as mem_read(). This is particularly important for mem_write as an accidental leak of the fd across an exec could result in arbitrary modification of the target process' memory. IOW, /proc/pid/mem is implicitly close-on-exec. Signed-off-by: Stephen Wilson <wilsons@start.ca> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Morally, the presence of a gate vma is more an attribute of a particular mm than a particular task. Moreover, dropping the dependency on task_struct will help make both existing and future operations on mm's more flexible and convenient.
