* x86/gart: Exclude GART aperture from kcoreKairui Song2019-04-201-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit ffc8599aa9763f39f6736a79da4d1575e7006f9a ] On machines where the GART aperture is mapped over physical RAM, /proc/kcore contains the GART aperture range. Accessing the GART range via /proc/kcore results in a kernel crash. vmcore used to have the same issue, until it was fixed with commit 2a3e83c6f96c ("x86/gart: Exclude GART aperture from vmcore")', leveraging existing hook infrastructure in vmcore to let /proc/vmcore return zeroes when attempting to read the aperture region, and so it won't read from the actual memory. Apply the same workaround for kcore. First implement the same hook infrastructure for kcore, then reuse the hook functions introduced in the previous vmcore fix. Just with some minor adjustment, rename some functions for more general usage, and simplify the hook infrastructure a bit as there is no module usage yet.

Represent that by giving the corresponding program headers in kcore the same offset. This has the benefit that, when perf tools uses /proc/kcore as a source for kernel object code, samples from different CPU trampolines are aggregated together. Note, such aggregation is normal for profiling i.e. people want to profile the object code, not every different virtual address the object code might be mapped to (across different processes for example). Notes by PeterZ: This also adds the KCORE_REMAP functionality.

* | proc/kcore: don't grab lock for kclist_add()Omar Sandoval2018-08-221-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "/proc/kcore improvements", v4. This series makes a few improvements to /proc/kcore. It fixes a couple of small issues in v3 but is otherwise the same. Patches 1, 2, and 3 are prep patches. Patch 4 is a fix/cleanup. Patch 5 is another prep patch. Patches 6 and 7 are optimizations to ->read(). Patch 8 makes it possible to enable CRASH_CORE on any architecture, which is needed for patch 9. Patch 9 adds vmcoreinfo to /proc/kcore. This patch (of 9): kclist_add() is only called at init time, so there's no point in grabbing any locks. We're also going to replace the rwlock with a rwsem, which we don't want to try grabbing during early boot. While we're here, mark kclist_add() with __init so that we'll get a warning if it's called from non-init code.

* vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in second kernelRahul Lakkireddy2018-05-141-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sequence of actions done by device drivers to append their device specific hardware/firmware logs to /proc/vmcore are as follows: 1. During probe (before hardware is initialized), device drivers register to the vmcore module (via vmcore_add_device_dump()), with callback function, along with buffer size and log name needed for firmware/hardware log collection. 2. vmcore module allocates the buffer with requested size. It adds an Elf note and invokes the device driver's registered callback function. 3. Device driver collects all hardware/firmware logs into the buffer and returns control back to vmcore module. Ensure that the device dump buffer size is always aligned to page size so that it can be mmaped. Also, rename alloc_elfnotes_buf() to vmcore_alloc_buf() to make it more generic and reserve NT_VMCOREDD note type to indicate vmcore device dump. Suggested-by: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>.

* vfs/proc/kcore, x86/mm/kcore: Fix SMAP fault when dumping vsyscall user pageJia Zhang2018-02-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit: df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data") ... introduced a bounce buffer to work around CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y. However, accessing the vsyscall user page will cause an SMAP fault. Replace memcpy() with copy_from_user() to fix this bug works, but adding a common way to handle this sort of user page may be useful for future. Currently, only vsyscall page requires KCORE_USER.

* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.
