MIPS: Loongson64: Set timer mode in cpu-probe
Loongson64 C and G processors have EXTIMER feature which is conflicting with CP0 counter. Although the processor resets in EXTIMER disabled & INTIMER enabled mode, which is compatible with MIPS CP0 compare, firmware may attempt to enable EXTIMER and interfere CP0 compare. Set timer mode back to MIPS compatible mode to fix booting on systems with such firmware before we have an actual driver for EXTIMER.

MIPS: SMP-CPS: Fix address for GCR_ACCESS register for CM3 and later
When the CM block migrated from CM2.5 to CM3.0, the address offset for
the Global CSR Access Privilege register was modified. We saw this in
the "MIPS64 I6500 Multiprocessing System Programmer's Guide," it is
stated that "the Global CSR Access Privilege register is located at
offset 0x0120" in section 5.4. It is at least the same for I6400.
This fix allows to use the VP cores in SMP mode if the reset values
were modified by the bootloader.
Based on the work of Vladimir Kondratiev
<vladimir.kondratiev@mobileye.com> and the feedback from Jiaxun Yang
<jiaxun.yang@flygoat.com>.

MIPS: Implement ieee754 NAN2008 emulation mode
Implement ieee754 NAN2008 emulation mode. When this mode is enabled, kernel will accept ELF file compiled for both NaN 2008 and NaN legacy, but if hardware does not have capability to match ELF's NaN mode, __own_fpu will fail for corresponding thread and fpuemu will then kick in. This mode trade performance for correctness, while maintaining support for both NaN mode regardless of hardware capability. It is useful for multilib installation that have both types of binary exist in system.

MIPS: CPS: Add a couple of multi-cluster utility functions
This patch introduces a couple of utility functions which help later patches with introducing support for multi-cluster systems. - mips_cps_multicluster_cpus() allows its caller to determine whether the system includes CPUs spread across multiple clusters. This is useful because in some cases behaviour can be more optimal taking this knowledge into account. The means by which we check this is dependent upon the way we probe CPUs & assign their numbers, so keeping this knowledge confined here in arch/mips/ seems appropriate. - mips_cps_first_online_in_cluster() allows its caller to determine whether it is running upon the first CPU online within its cluster. This information is useful in cases where some cluster-wide configuration may need to occur, but should not be repeated if another CPU in the cluster is already online. Similarly to the above this is determined based upon knowledge of CPU numbering so it makes sense to keep that knowledge in arch/mips/. The function is defined in mips-cm.c rather than in asm/mips-cps.h in order to allow us to use asm/cpu-info.h & linux/smp.h without encountering an include nightmare.

MIPS: sync-r4k: Rework based on x86 tsc_sync
The original sync-r4k did a good job on reducing jitter by determine the "next time value", but it has a limitation that when synchronization being performed too many times due to high core count or CPU hotplug, the timewrap on CPU0 will become unaccpetable. Rework the mechanism based on latest x86 tsc_sync. (It seems like the original implementation is based on tsc_sync at that time, so it's just a refresh.) To improve overall performance.

MIPS: csrc-r4k: Don't register as sched_clock if unfit
When we have more than one CPU in system, counter synchronisation overhead can lead to a scenario that sched_clock goes backward when being read from different CPUs. This is accommodated by CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK, but it's unavailable on 32bit kernel. We don't want to risk sched_clock correctness, so if we have multiple CPU in system and CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is not set, we just don't use counter as sched_clock source.

mseal: wire up mseal syscall
Patch series "Introduce mseal", v10.
This patchset proposes a new mseal() syscall for the Linux kernel.
In a nutshell, mseal() protects the VMAs of a given virtual memory range
against modifications, such as changes to their permission bits.
Modern CPUs support memory permissions, such as the read/write (RW) and
no-execute (NX) bits. Linux has supported NX since the release of kernel
version 2.6.8 in August 2004 [1]. The memory permission feature improves
the security stance on memory corruption bugs, as an attacker cannot
simply write to arbitrary memory and point the code to it. The memory
must be marked with the X bit, or else an exception will occur.
Internally, the kernel maintains the memory permissions in a data
structure called VMA (vm_area_struct). mseal() additionally protects the
VMA itself against modifications of the selected seal type.
Memory sealing is useful to mitigate memory corruption issues where a
corrupted pointer is passed to a memory management system. For example,
such an attacker primitive can break control-flow integrity guarantees
since read-only memory that is supposed to be trusted can become writable
or .text pages can get remapped. Memory sealing can automatically be
applied by the runtime loader to seal .text and .rodata pages and
applications can additionally seal security critical data at runtime. A
similar feature already exists in the XNU kernel with the
VM_FLAGS_PERMANENT [3] flag and on OpenBSD with the mimmutable syscall
[4]. Also, Chrome wants to adopt this feature for their CFI work [2] and
this patchset has been designed to be compatible with the Chrome use case.
Two system calls are involved in sealing the map: mmap() and mseal().
The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature:
int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags)
addr/len: memory range.
flags: reserved.
mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range.
1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size,
via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can
be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes.
2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location,
via mremap().
3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED).
4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific
risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is
unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA.
5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect().
6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous
memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those
behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a
memset(0) for anonymous memory.
The idea that inspired this patch comes from Stephen Röttger’s work in
V8 CFI [5]. Chrome browser in ChromeOS will be the first user of this
API.
Indeed, the Chrome browser has very specific requirements for sealing,
which are distinct from those of most applications. For example, in the
case of libc, sealing is only applied to read-only (RO) or read-execute
(RX) memory segments (such as .text and .RELRO) to prevent them from
becoming writable, the lifetime of those mappings are tied to the lifetime
of the process.
Chrome wants to seal two large address space reservations that are managed
by different allocators. The memory is mapped RW- and RWX respectively
but write access to it is restricted using pkeys (or in the future ARM
permission overlay extensions). The lifetime of those mappings are not
tied to the lifetime of the process, therefore, while the memory is
sealed, the allocators still need to free or discard the unused memory.
For example, with madvise(DONTNEED).
However, always allowing madvise(DONTNEED) on this range poses a security
risk. For example if a jump instruction crosses a page boundary and the
second page gets discarded, it will overwrite the target bytes with zeros
and change the control flow. Checking write-permission before the discard
operation allows us to control when the operation is valid. In this case,
the madvise will only succeed if the executing thread has PKEY write
permissions and PKRU changes are protected in software by control-flow
integrity.
Although the initial version of this patch series is targeting the Chrome
browser as its first user, it became evident during upstream discussions
that we would also want to ensure that the patch set eventually is a
complete solution for memory sealing and compatible with other use cases.
The specific scenario currently in mind is glibc's use case of loading and
sealing ELF executables. To this end, Stephen is working on a change to
glibc to add sealing support to the dynamic linker, which will seal all
non-writable segments at startup. Once this work is completed, all
applications will be able to automatically benefit from these new
protections.
In closing, I would like to formally acknowledge the valuable
contributions received during the RFC process, which were instrumental in
shaping this patch:
Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the
destructive madvise operations.
Liam R. Howlett: perf optimization.
Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope.
Theo de Raadt: sharing the experiences and insight gained from
implementing mimmutable() in OpenBSD.
MM perf benchmarks
==================
This patch adds a loop in the mprotect/munmap/madvise(DONTNEED) to
check the VMAs’ sealing flag, so that no partial update can be made,
when any segment within the given memory range is sealed.
To measure the performance impact of this loop, two tests are developed.
[8]
The first is measuring the time taken for a particular system call,
by using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC). The second is using
PERF_COUNT_HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES (exclude user space). Both tests have
similar results.
The tests have roughly below sequence:
for (i = 0; i < 1000, i++)
create 1000 mappings (1 page per VMA)
start the sampling
for (j = 0; j < 1000, j++)
mprotect one mapping
stop and save the sample
delete 1000 mappings
calculates all samples.
Below tests are performed on Intel(R) Pentium(R) Gold 7505 @ 2.00GHz,
4G memory, Chromebook.

From 5.10 to 6.8
munmap: added 250-550 ns in time, or 500-1100 in cpu cycle, per vma.
mprotect: added 200-750 ns in time, or 500-1200 in cpu cycle, per vma.
madvise: added 33-50 ns in time, or 70-110 in cpu cycle, per vma.
In comparison to mseal, which adds 20-40 ns or 50-100 CPU cycles, the
increase from 5.10 to 6.8 is significantly larger, approximately ten times
greater for munmap and mprotect.
When I discuss the mm performance with Brian Makin, an engineer who worked
on performance, it was brought to my attention that such performance
benchmarks, which measuring millions of mm syscall in a tight loop, may
not accurately reflect real-world scenarios, such as that of a database
service. Also this is tested using a single HW and ChromeOS, the data
from another HW or distribution might be different. It might be best to
take this data with a grain of salt.
This patch (of 5):
Wire up mseal syscall for all architectures.

mm/execmem, arch: convert simple overrides of module_alloc to execmem
Several architectures override module_alloc() only to define address range for code allocations different than VMALLOC address space. Provide a generic implementation in execmem that uses the parameters for address space ranges, required alignment and page protections provided by architectures. The architectures must fill execmem_info structure and implement execmem_arch_setup() that returns a pointer to that structure. This way the execmem initialization won't be called from every architecture, but rather from a central place, namely a core_initcall() in execmem. The execmem provides execmem_alloc() API that wraps __vmalloc_node_range() with the parameters defined by the architectures. If an architecture does not implement execmem_arch_setup(), execmem_alloc() will fall back to module_alloc().

kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory
Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

MIPS: scall: Save thread_info.syscall unconditionally on entry
thread_info.syscall is used by syscall_get_nr to supply syscall nr over a thread stack frame. Previously, thread_info.syscall is only saved at syscall_trace_enter when syscall tracing is enabled. However rest of the kernel code do expect syscall_get_nr to be available without syscall tracing. The previous design breaks collect_syscall. Move saving process to syscall entry to fix it.

- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm:
zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged
as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy
wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather
than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments
appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process
has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations.
The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan
Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series
"Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults.
He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test",
Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in
our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data
caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic
improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain
userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements
in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x
improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of
large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to
an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are
configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

mips: cm: Convert __mips_cm_phys_base() to weak function
Based on the design pattern utilized in the CM GCR base address getter implementation, the platform-specific code is capable to re-define the getter and re-use the weakly defined initial version. But since the pattern hasn't been used for over 10 years and another similar case (CM L2-sync only base address getter) has just been fixed, let's unify the interface and convert it to a more traditional single weakly defined method: mips_cm_phys_base() (see the link below for the discussion around this).

MIPS: traps: Give more explanations if ebase doesn't belong to KSEG0
With the expanded support for placing the kernel in XPHYS rather than just KSEG0, scenarios where ebase doesn't belong to KSEG0 are more likely to occur. In such cases, we currently experience a substantial and perplexing stack dump without any accompanying explanation. To rectify this, we aim to replace the uninformative stack dump with a warning that offers a clear explanation of the issue.

mips: Call lose_fpu(0) before initializing fcr31 in mips_set_personality_nan
If we still own the FPU after initializing fcr31, when we are preempted
the dirty value in the FPU will be read out and stored into fcr31,
clobbering our setting. This can cause an improper floating-point
environment after execve(). For example:
zsh% cat measure.c
#include <fenv.h>
int main() { return fetestexcept(FE_INEXACT); }
zsh% cc measure.c -o measure -lm
zsh% echo $((1.0/3)) # raising FE_INEXACT
0.33333333333333331
zsh% while ./measure; do ; done
(stopped in seconds)
Call lose_fpu(0) before setting fcr31 to prevent this.

The first syscall simply lists the LSMs enabled, while the second and third get and set the current process' LSM attributes. Yes, these syscalls may provide similar functionality to what can be found under /proc or /sys, but they were designed to support multiple, simultaneaous (stacked) LSMs from the start as opposed to the current /proc based solutions which were created at a time when only one LSM was allowed to be active at a given time. We have spent considerable time discussing ways to extend the existing /proc interfaces to support multiple, simultaneaous LSMs and even our best ideas have been far too ugly to support as a kernel API; after +20 years in the kernel, I felt the LSM layer had established itself enough to justify a handful of syscalls. Support amongst the individual LSM developers has been nearly unanimous, with a single objection coming from Tetsuo (TOMOYO) as he is worried that the LSM_ID_XXX token concept will make it more difficult for out-of-tree LSMs to survive. Several members of the LSM community have demonstrated the ability for out-of-tree LSMs to continue to exist by picking high/unused LSM_ID values as well as pointing out that many kernel APIs rely on integer identifiers, e.g. syscalls (!), but unfortunately Tetsuo's objections remain. My personal opinion is that while I have no interest in penalizing out-of-tree LSMs, I'm not going to penalize in-tree development to support out-of-tree development, and I view this as a necessary step forward to support the push for expanded LSM stacking and reduce our reliance on /proc and /sys which has occassionally been problematic for some container users. Finally, we have included the linux-api folks on (all?) recent revisions of the patchset and addressed all of their concerns. - Add a new security_file_ioctl_compat() LSM hook to handle the 32-bit ioctls on 64-bit systems problem. This patch includes support for all of the existing LSMs which provide ioctl hooks, although it turns out only SELinux actually cares about the individual ioctls. It is worth noting that while Casey (Smack) and Tetsuo (TOMOYO) did not give explicit ACKs to this patch, they did both indicate they are okay with the changes. - Fix a potential memory leak in the CALIPSO code when IPv6 is disabled at boot. While it's good that we are fixing this, I doubt this is something users are seeing in the wild as you need to both disable IPv6 and then attempt to configure IPv6 labeled networking via NetLabel/CALIPSO; that just doesn't make much sense. Normally this would go through netdev, but Jakub asked me to take this patch and of all the trees I maintain, the LSM tree seemed like the best fit. - Update the LSM MAINTAINERS entry with additional information about our process docs, patchwork, bug reporting, etc. I also noticed that the Lockdown LSM is missing a dedicated MAINTAINERS entry so I've added that to the pull request. I've been working with one of the major Lockdown authors/contributors to see if they are willing to step up and assume a Lockdown maintainer role; hopefully that will happen soon, but in the meantime I'll continue to look after it. - Add a handful of mailmap entries for Serge Hallyn and myself. * tag 'lsm-pr-20240105' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm: (27 commits) lsm: new security_file_ioctl_compat() hook lsm: Add a __counted_by() annotation to lsm_ctx.ctx calipso: fix memory leak in netlbl_calipso_add_pass() selftests: remove the LSM_ID_IMA check in lsm/lsm_list_modules_test MAINTAINERS: add an entry for the lockdown LSM MAINTAINERS: update the LSM entry mailmap: add entries for Serge Hallyn's dead accounts mailmap: update/replace my old email addresses lsm: mark the lsm_id variables are marked as static lsm: convert security_setselfattr() to use memdup_user() lsm: align based on pointer length in lsm_fill_user_ctx() lsm: consolidate buffer size handling into lsm_fill_user_ctx() lsm: correct error codes in security_getselfattr() lsm: cleanup the size counters in security_getselfattr() lsm: don't yet account for IMA in LSM_CONFIG_COUNT calculation lsm: drop LSM_ID_IMA LSM: selftests for Linux Security Module syscalls SELinux: Add selfattr hooks AppArmor: Add selfattr hooks Smack: implement setselfattr and getselfattr hooks ... |

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to retrieve detailed information about mounts
via two new system calls. This is hopefully the beginning of the end
of the saga that started with fsinfo() years ago.
The LWN articles in [1] and [2] can serve as a summary so we can avoid
rehashing everything here.
At LSFMM in May 2022 we got into a room and agreed on what we want to
do about fsinfo(). Basically, split it into pieces. This is the first
part of that agreement. Specifically, it is concerned with retrieving
information about mounts. So this only concerns the mount information
retrieval, not the mount table change notification, or the extended
filesystem specific mount option work. That is separate work.
Currently mounts have a 32bit id. Mount ids are already in heavy use
by libmount and other low-level userspace but they can't be relied
upon because they're recycled very quickly. We agreed that mounts
should carry a unique 64bit id by which they can be referenced
directly. This is now implemented as part of this work.
The new 64bit mount id is exposed in statx() through the new
STATX_MNT_ID_UNIQUE flag. If the flag isn't raised the old mount id is
returned. If it is raised and the kernel supports the new 64bit mount
id the flag is raised in the result mask and the new 64bit mount id is
returned. New and old mount ids do not overlap so they cannot be
conflated.
Two new system calls are introduced that operate on the 64bit mount
id: statmount() and listmount(). A summary of the api and usage can be
found on LWN as well (cf. [3]) but of course, I'll provide a summary
here as well.
Both system calls rely on struct mnt_id_req. Which is the request
struct used to pass the 64bit mount id identifying the mount to
operate on. It is extensible to allow for the addition of new
parameters and for future use in other apis that make use of mount
ids.
statmount() mimicks the semantics of statx() and exposes a set flags
that userspace may raise in mnt_id_req to request specific information
to be retrieved. A statmount() call returns a struct statmount filled
in with information about the requested mount. Supported requests are
indicated by raising the request flag passed in struct mnt_id_req in
the @mask argument in struct statmount.
Currently we do support:
- STATMOUNT_SB_BASIC:
Basic filesystem info
- STATMOUNT_MNT_BASIC
Mount information (mount id, parent mount id, mount attributes etc)
- STATMOUNT_PROPAGATE_FROM
Propagation from what mount in current namespace
- STATMOUNT_MNT_ROOT
Path of the root of the mount (e.g., mount --bind /bla /mnt returns /bla)
- STATMOUNT_MNT_POINT
Path of the mount point (e.g., mount --bind /bla /mnt returns /mnt)
- STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE
Name of the filesystem type as the magic number isn't enough due to submounts
The string options STATMOUNT_MNT_{ROOT,POINT} and STATMOUNT_FS_TYPE
are appended to the end of the struct. Userspace can use the offsets
in @fs_type, @mnt_root, and @mnt_point to reference those strings
easily.
The struct statmount reserves quite a bit of space currently for
future extensibility. This isn't really a problem and if this bothers
us we can just send a follow-up pull request during this cycle.
listmount() is given a 64bit mount id via mnt_id_req just as
statmount(). It takes a buffer and a size to return an array of the
64bit ids of the child mounts of the requested mount. Userspace can
thus choose to either retrieve child mounts for a mount in batches or
iterate through the child mounts. For most use-cases it will be
sufficient to just leave space for a few child mounts. But for big
mount tables having an iterator is really helpful. Iterating through a
mount table works by setting @param in mnt_id_req to the mount id of
the last child mount retrieved in the previous listmount() call"

MIPS: Allow vectored interrupt handler to reside everywhere for 64bit
Setting up vector interrupts worked only with handlers, which resided in CKSEG0 space. This limits the kernel placement for 64bit platforms. By patching in the offset into vi_handlers[] instead of the full handler address, the vectored exception handler can load the address by itself and jump to it.

mips: Fix incorrect max_low_pfn adjustment
max_low_pfn variable is incorrectly adjusted if the kernel is built with high memory support and the later is detected in a running system, so the memory which actually can be directly mapped is getting into the highmem zone. See the ZONE_NORMAL range on my MIPS32r5 system: > Zone ranges: > DMA [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000ffffff] > Normal [mem 0x0000000001000000-0x0000000007ffffff] > HighMem [mem 0x0000000008000000-0x000000020fffffff] while the zones are supposed to look as follows: > Zone ranges: > DMA [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000ffffff] > Normal [mem 0x0000000001000000-0x000000001fffffff] > HighMem [mem 0x0000000020000000-0x000000020fffffff] Even though the physical memory within the range [0x08000000;0x20000000] belongs to MMIO on our system, we don't really want it to be considered as high memory since on MIPS32 that range still can be directly mapped. Note there might be other problems caused by the max_low_pfn variable misconfiguration. For instance high_memory variable is initialize with virtual address corresponding to the max_low_pfn PFN, and by design it must define the upper bound on direct map memory, then end of the normal zone. That in its turn potentially may cause problems in accessing the memory by means of the /dev/mem and /dev/kmem devices. Let's fix the discovered misconfiguration then. It turns out the commit |
