signal/usb: Replace kill_pid_info_as_cred with kill_pid_usb_asyncio
The usb support for asyncio encoded one of it's values in the wrong field. It should have used si_value but instead used si_addr which is not present in the _rt union member of struct siginfo. The practical result of this is that on a 64bit big endian kernel when delivering a signal to a 32bit process the si_addr field is set to NULL, instead of the expected pointer value. This issue can not be fixed in copy_siginfo_to_user32 as the usb usage of the the _sigfault (aka si_addr) member of the siginfo union when SI_ASYNCIO is set is incompatible with the POSIX and glibc usage of the _rt member of the siginfo union. Therefore replace kill_pid_info_as_cred with kill_pid_usb_asyncio a dedicated function for this one specific case. There are no other users of kill_pid_info_as_cred so this specialization should have no impact on the amount of code in the kernel. Have kill_pid_usb_asyncio take instead of a siginfo_t which is difficult and error prone, 3 arguments, a signal number, an errno value, and an address enconded as a sigval_t. The encoding of the address as a sigval_t allows the code that reads the userspace request for a signal to handle this compat issue along with all of the other compat issues. Add BUILD_BUG_ONs in kernel/signal.c to ensure that we can now place the pointer value at the in si_pid (instead of si_addr). That is the code now verifies that si_pid and si_addr always occur at the same location. Further the code veries that for native structures a value placed in si_pid and spilling into si_uid will appear in userspace in si_addr (on a byte by byte copy of siginfo or a field by field copy of siginfo). The code also verifies that for a 64bit kernel and a 32bit userspace the 32bit pointer will fit in si_pid. I have used the usbsig.c program below written by Alan Stern and slightly tweaked by me to run on a big endian machine to verify the issue exists (on sparc64) and to confirm the patch below fixes the issue. /* usbsig.c -- test USB async signal delivery */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <signal.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <endian.h> #include <linux/usb/ch9.h> #include <linux/usbdevice_fs.h> static struct usbdevfs_urb urb; static struct usbdevfs_disconnectsignal ds; static volatile sig_atomic_t done = 0; void urb_handler(int sig, siginfo_t *info , void *ucontext) { printf("Got signal %d, signo %d errno %d code %d addr: %p urb: %p\n", sig, info->si_signo, info->si_errno, info->si_code, info->si_addr, &urb); printf("%s\n", (info->si_addr == &urb) ?
