13 daysMerge __{get,put}_user() removal branchLinus Torvalds
This is long over-due: the __get_user() and __put_user() functions are entirely historical, and are never the rigth thing to use any more. And when mis-used (read: every case) they are not only slower than the right thing, but also insecure because they don't check the user address range. Most of the usage sites have been converted long ago, but various left-overs remained. So this started out as a single patch that I wrote as a "show people how to convert __{get,put}_user() to modern code". In particular, Thomas last year implemented the very nice new scoped user access region helpers (see commit e497310b4ffb: "uaccess: Provide scoped user access regions") that makes the modern interfaces particularly easy to use and really removes any excuse for the old horrors. That small example patch then grew to this, partly using Claude as a glorified coccinelle script to apply the pattern to other places. There were a few different reasons for using __put_user() and __get_user() rather than the alternatives, but the original historical one was performance: when doing multiple accesses off the same base pointer, doing a single range check followed by multiple non-checked accesses used to create smaller and faster code. The keyword here is "used to". It hasn't been true for years, because the range check isn't actually the real cost these days. The real cost of user accesses on modern hardware is turning the user accesses on and off in the first place (on x86, using the STAC/CLAC instructions). Those sequences get turned into 'scoped_user_read_access() { }' blocks, see for example that first patch in the series: "signal: use scoped user access for old-style sigaction". Another, historical reason for using __get_user() and friends is that you actually want to do a kernel pointer access, but the pointer might not be entirely reliable (typically during fault handling), so you want to have exception handling for the kernel access. The modern way to do that kind of non-faulting kernel access is using "get_kernel_nofault()", but some code predates that helper existing at all, and used __get_user() as a way to just get a memory access with exception handling. For that pattern, see for example "alpha: use get_kernel_nofault() in dik_show_code()" A third bad reason for using __get_user() and friends was that the proper get_user() had a "might_fault()" in it, and code that ran in atomic regions but hadn't disabled page faults would result in a warning. That kind of code needs to explicitly disable page faults, because "atomic region" is not well defined at run-time and can be invisible (eg a preempt-off region in a non-preemptible kernel). See "vdpa_sim: disable page faults around vringh_need_notify_iotlb()" for an example of that pattern, where the local_bh_disable() now also grows a pagefault_disable(), which makes the normal get_user() no longer warn about the user access in non-process context, because it can see that the potential page fault will not cause problems. And finally, the really nasty reason to use __get_user() and friends: pointers that can be either kernel pointers or user pointers. We've gotten rid of almost all such cases, but a couple remained. See for example "x86/sev: Use explicit user-or-kernel accessors for #VC memory operands". NOTE! This series removes all __get/put_user() calls from generic code but only does the final removal of the whole interface on x86. Other architectures have not been entirely converted, for a variety of reasons: - arm64 makes __{get,put}_user() be exactly the same as {get,put}_user() so it's harmless and didn't have the dangers of the legacy use cases. - any architecture that uses <asm-generic/uaccess.h> will still use __{get,put}_user as the underlying helper function name - several architectures had some legacy uses that weren't entirely trivial and I didn't want to extend this patch series to things that I don't know and that don't really matter. but I did do a couple of the obvious "follows the exact same pattern" just because it could be done mindlessly and automatically. Let's see if I broke anything, but we should have done this years ago. * uaccess-cleanups: (48 commits) drm/i915/gem: ignore errors on presumed_offset write-back powerpc/align: use get_user_instr() for a user-mode instruction powerpc/signal64: use scoped user access in setup_trampoline() powerpc/signal64: use get_user() for the single context reads powerpc/signal32: use get_user() for the single context reads KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: use get_user()/put_user() for the HPT fd powerpc/powernv: use get_user()/put_user() in the LPC debugfs files s390: use get_user()/put_user() instead of the unchecked variants ARM: OABI: use scoped user access in epoll_put_uevent() ARM: signal: stop using __put_user() for the signal frame ARM: signal: check the FDPIC function descriptor address alpha: split the prefetch check in do_page_fault() by mode openrisc: use get_kernel_nofault() in show_registers() alpha: use get_kernel_nofault() in dik_show_code() nios2: use scoped user access for the signal frame nios2: check the signal frame address before writing to it hexagon: use scoped user access for the signal frame alpha: use scoped user access when setting up signal frames alpha: use scoped user access in the sigreturn path alpha: use scoped user access in osf_sigaction() ...
13 daysalpha: use scoped user access when setting up signal framesLinus Torvalds
setup_sigcontext() writes the whole register set with __put_user() and __copy_to_user(), OR-ing the errors together, relying on its callers' access_ok() on the frame. setup_frame() and setup_rt_frame() write the sigreturn trampoline, and setup_rt_frame() the ucontext header, the same way. Do those writes inside scoped_user_write_access() with unsafe_put_user() and unsafe_copy_to_user(). on_sig_stack() is evaluated before the scope, and the instruction cache flush stays outside it. The up-front access_ok() calls stay: setup_rt_frame() still needs its own for the __copy_to_user() of the signal mask. A fault part way through now stops at the first failing write instead of carrying on. Either way the frame setup fails and the task gets SIGSEGV. alpha has no user_access_begin(), so the accesses themselves are the same as before. This is part of getting rid of __get_user() and __put_user() entirely. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
13 daysalpha: use scoped user access in the sigreturn pathLinus Torvalds
restore_sigcontext() reads the whole saved register set with __get_user() and __copy_from_user(), OR-ing the errors together. It relies on its callers having done access_ok(): do_sigreturn() on the sigcontext, do_rt_sigreturn() on the enclosing ucontext. Make it do its own check, with a scoped_user_read_access() around unsafe_get_user() and unsafe_copy_from_user(). do_sigreturn() then only needs the same for the signal mask. do_rt_sigreturn() keeps its access_ok(), which its own __copy_from_user() of the mask still needs. A fault part way through the frame now stops the restore there, instead of carrying on with zeroes and still writing the user stack pointer. Either way the sigreturn fails and the task gets SIGSEGV. alpha has no user_access_begin(), so the accesses themselves are the same as before. This is part of getting rid of __get_user() and __put_user() entirely. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
13 daysalpha: use scoped user access in osf_sigaction()Linus Torvalds
osf_sigaction() does one access_ok() on each user structure and then reads or writes its fields with __get_user() or __put_user(), the same pattern as the generic old-style sigaction(). Convert it the same way, to scoped_user_{read,write}_access() with unsafe_{get,put}_user(). alpha has no user_access_begin(), so the scope is the same access_ok() followed by the same plain accesses, and the generated code does not change. This is part of getting rid of __get_user() and __put_user() entirely. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-09-10alpha: enable GENERIC_ENTRYMagnus Lindholm
Wire Alpha into the generic entry code for syscall entry/exit and return-to-user handling, while keeping the low-level PALcode return paths Alpha-specific. Move most of the syscall entry/exit logic out of entSys and into C helpers built around the generic entry API. Syscall entry now uses syscall_enter_from_user_mode(), records Alpha-local syscall metadata in thread_info, handles the ptrace/seccomp skip decision, and selects the syscall table target in C. The final target call remains in entry.S so Alpha can preserve its existing syscall ABI and assembly syscall-table wrappers. On return from syscalls, finish Alpha's r0/r19 result encoding and skipped-syscall restart handling in C before calling syscall_exit_to_user_mode(). Non-syscall returns to user mode use a separate alpha_exit_to_user_mode() helper, which disables interrupts, runs irqentry_exit_to_user_mode_prepare(), and then enters the common exit_to_user_mode() path. Keep the remaining PALcode restore handling in assembly. In particular, kernel-mode returns still need Alpha-specific lockdep IRQ-state annotation based on the saved processor status, while user-mode returns are handed to the generic exit-to-user code. Add the generic-entry support bits needed by common code, including thread_info.syscall_work, syscall trace support, ptrace sysemu request numbers, and arch_syscall_is_vdso_sigreturn(). This has been tested by booting Alpha with GENERIC_ENTRY enabled, checking lockdep IRQ-state accounting, running fork/clone-heavy package builds, and running the seccomp as well as strace test suites.

2026-07-19alpha: enable lockdep hardirq state trackingMagnus Lindholm
Alpha masks interrupts through the PAL IPL state, so lockdep cannot infer hardirq state transitions from generic code alone. Add explicit hardirq on/off annotations to the low-level entry and return paths so lockdep's IRQ state follows the hardware IPL state. Annotate the PAL IPL transitions and the shared return-to-user/kernel paths where interrupts become enabled or disabled. With the preceding irqflags, raw-lock, sysfs, and ftrace return-address preparations in place, select LOCKDEP_SUPPORT and TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT for Alpha. This keeps CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING usable on Alpha instead of disabling debug_locks due to IRQ-state mismatches.

2023-02-24alpha: lazy FPU switchingAl Viro
On each context switch we save the FPU registers on stack of old process and restore FPU registers from the stack of new one. That allows us to avoid doing that each time we enter/leave the kernel mode; however, that can get suboptimal in some cases. For one thing, we don't need to bother saving anything for kernel threads. For another, if between entering and leaving the kernel a thread gives CPU up more than once, it will do useless work, saving the same values every time, only to discard the saved copy as soon as it returns from switch_to(). Alternative solution: * move the array we save into from switch_stack to thread_info * have a (thread-synchronous) flag set when we save them * have another flag set when they should be restored on return to userland. * do *NOT* save/restore them in do_switch_stack()/undo_switch_stack(). * restore on the exit to user mode if the restore flag had been set. Clear both flags. * on context switch, entry to fork/clone/vfork, before entry into do_signal() and on entry into straced syscall save the registers and set the 'saved' flag unless it had been already set. * on context switch set the 'restore' flag as well. * have copy_thread() set both flags for child, so the registers would be restored once the child returns to userland. * use the saved data in setup_sigcontext(); have restore_sigcontext() set both flags and copy from sigframe to save area. * teach ptrace to look for FPU registers in thread_info instead of switch_stack. * teach isolated accesses to FPU registers (rdfpcr, wrfpcr, etc.) to check the 'saved' flag (under preempt_disable()) and work with the save area if it's been set; if 'saved' flag is found upon write access, set 'restore' flag as well.

2021-12-01alpha: Snapshot thread flagsMark Rutland
Some thread flags can be set remotely, and so even when IRQs are disabled, the flags can change under our feet. Generally this is unlikely to cause a problem in practice, but it is somewhat unsound, and KCSAN will legitimately warn that there is a data race. To avoid such issues, a snapshot of the flags has to be taken prior to using them. Some places already use READ_ONCE() for that, others do not. Convert them all to the new flag accessor helpers.

2019-01-03Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() functionLinus Torvalds
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2018-04-25signal/alpha: Use send_sig_fault where appropriateEric W. Biederman
Filling in struct siginfo before calling send_sig_info a tedious and error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared. Simplify this process by using the helper send_sig_fault. Which takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly and then calls send_sig_info. In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time send_sig_info is called, which makes the calling function clearer.

2018-04-25signal: Ensure every siginfo we send has all bits initializedEric W. Biederman
Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions. Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when initializing a structure. The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local variable siginfo gets fully initialized. In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function in which it is declared. Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced with calls clear_siginfo for clarity. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
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.

2015-02-12all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_structAndy Lutomirski
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.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

2012-04-05alpha: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask()Matt Fleming
As described in e6fa16ab9c1e ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check for shared signals we're about to block. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

Commit c52c2ddc1dfa ("alpha: switch osf_sigprocmask() to use of sigprocmask()") had several problems. The more obvious compile issues got fixed in commit 0f44fbd297e1 ("alpha: fix compile problem in arch/alpha/kernel/signal.c"), but it also caused a regression. Since _BLOCKABLE is already the set of signals that can be blocked, the code should do "newmask & _BLOCKABLE" rather than inverting _BLOCKABLE before masking.

2010-09-18alpha: unb0rk sigsuspend() and rt_sigsuspend()Al Viro
Old code used to set regs->r0 and regs->r19 to force the right return value. Leaving that after switch to ERESTARTNOHAND was a Bad Idea(tm), since now that screws the restart - if we hit the case when get_signal_to_deliver() returns 0, we will step back to syscall insn, with v0 set to EINTR and a3 to 1. The latter won't matter, since EINTR is 4, aka __NR_write. Testcase: #include <signal.h> #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> main() { sigset_t mask; sigemptyset(&mask); sigaddset(&mask, SIGCONT); sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL); kill(0, SIGCONT); syscall(__NR_sigsuspend, 1, "b0rken\n", 7); } results on alpha in immediate message to stdout... Fix is obvious; moreover, since we don't need regs anymore, we can switch to normal prototypes for these guys and lose the wrappers. Even better, rt_sigsuspend() is identical to generic version in kernel/signal.c now.

2009-09-02KEYS: Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring on its parent [try #6]David Howells
Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring onto its parent. This replaces the parent's session keyring. Because the COW credential code does not permit one process to change another process's credentials directly, the change is deferred until userspace next starts executing again. Normally this will be after a wait*() syscall. To support this, three new security hooks have been provided: cred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in the blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if the process may replace its parent's session keyring. The replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details as its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and the session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it. Note that this requires alteration to each architecture's notify_resume path. This has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of which need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. This allows the replacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace execution. This allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and the VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to alter the parent process's PAG membership. However, since kAFS doesn't use PAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session keyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed the newpag flag. This can be tested with the following program: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <keyutils.h> #define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT 18 #define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) == -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0) int main(int argc, char **argv) { key_serial_t keyring, key; long ret; keyring = keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]); OSERROR(keyring, "keyctl_join_session_keyring"); key = add_key("user", "a", "b", 1, keyring); OSERROR(key, "add_key"); ret = keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT); OSERROR(ret, "KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT"); return 0; } Compiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like: [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses 355907932 --alswrv 4043 -1 \_ keyring: _uid.4043 [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses 1055658746 --alswrv 4043 4043 \_ user: a [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag hello [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: hello 340417692 --alswrv 4043 4043 \_ user: a Where the test program creates a new session keyring, sticks a user key named 'a' into it and then installs it on its parent.
