commit 98400ad75e95860e9a10ec78b0b90ab66184a2ce upstream.
This reverts commit 279917e27edc293eb645a25428c6ab3f3bca3f86.
With the CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY option enabled, this patch triggers
kernel bugs at runtime:
usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to kernel text (offset 2084839, size 6)!
kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:99!
Backtrace:
IAOQ[0]: usercopy_abort+0xc4/0xe8

The problem is, that we have an init section of at least 2MB size which
starts at _stext and is freed after bootup.
If then later some kernel data is (temporarily) stored in this free
memory, check_kernel_text_object() will trigger a bug since the data
appears to be inside the kernel text (>=_stext) area:
if (overlaps(ptr, len, _stext, _etext))
usercopy_abort("kernel text");

commit 3ec18fc7831e7d79e2d536dd1f3bc0d3ba425e8a upstream.
commit 8779e05ba8aa ("parisc: Fix ptrace check on syscall return")
fixed testing of TI_FLAGS. This uncovered a bug in the test mask.
syscall_restore_rfi is only used when the kernel needs to exit to
usespace with single or block stepping and the recovery counter
enabled. The test however used _TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE_MASK, which
includes a lot of bits that shouldn't be tested here.
Fix this by using TIF_SINGLESTEP and TIF_BLOCKSTEP directly.
I encountered this bug by enabling syscall tracepoints. Both in qemu and
on real hardware. As soon as i enabled the tracepoint (sys_exit_read,
but i guess it doesn't really matter which one), i got random page
faults in userspace almost immediately.

commit 38860b2c8bb1b92f61396eb06a63adff916fc31d upstream.
For years, there have been random segmentation faults in userspace on
SMP PA-RISC machines. It occurred to me that this might be a problem in
set_pte_at(). MIPS and some other architectures do cache flushes when
installing PTEs with the present bit set.
Here I have adapted the code in update_mmu_cache() to flush the kernel
mapping when the kernel flush is deferred, or when the kernel mapping
may alias with the user mapping. This simplifies calls to
update_mmu_cache().
I also changed the barrier in set_pte() from a compiler barrier to a
full memory barrier. I know this change is not sufficient to fix the
problem. It might not be needed.
I have had a few days of operation with 5.14.16 to 5.15.1 and haven't
seen any random segmentation faults on rp3440 or c8000 so far.

commit 279917e27edc293eb645a25428c6ab3f3bca3f86 upstream.
I noticed that sometimes at kernel startup the backtraces did not
included the function names of init functions. Their address were not
resolved to function names and instead only the address was printed.
Debugging shows that the culprit is is_ksym_addr() which is called
by the backtrace functions to check if an address belongs to a function in
the kernel. The problem occurs only for CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.
When looking at is_ksym_addr() one can see that for CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y
the function only tries to resolve the address via is_kernel() function,
which checks like this:
if (addr >= _stext && addr <= _end)
return 1;
On parisc the init functions are located before _stext, so this check fails.
Other platforms seem to have all functions (including init functions)
behind _stext.
The following patch moves the _stext symbol at the beginning of the
kernel and thus includes the init section. This fixes the check and does
not seem to have any negative side effects on where the kernel mapping
happens in the map_pages() function in arch/parisc/mm/init.c.

[ Upstream commit 66e29fcda1824f0427966fbee2bd2c85bf362c82 ]
With idle polling, IPIs are not sent when a CPU idle, but queued
and run later from do_idle(). The default kgdb_call_nmi_hook()
implementation gets the pointer to struct pt_regs from get_irq_reqs(),
which doesn't work in that case because it was not called from the
IPI interrupt handler. Fix it by defining our own kgdb_roundup()
function which sents an IPI_ENTER_KGDB. When that IPI is received
on the target CPU kgdb_nmicallback() is called.

Remove CONFIG_SET_FS from parisc, so we need to add
__get_kernel_nofault() and __put_kernel_nofault(), define
HAVE_GET_KERNEL_NOFAULT and remove set_fs(), get_fs(), load_sr2(),
thread_info->addr_limit, KERNEL_DS and USER_DS.
The nice side-effect of this patch is that we now can directly access
userspace via sr3 without the need to use a temporary sr2 which is
either copied from sr3 or set to zero (for kernel space).

"In preparation of doing something about PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT I have
started cleaning up various pieces of code related to do_exit. Most of
that code I did not manage to get tested and reviewed before the merge

merged.
The first change is simply the removal of the bdflush system call. The
code has now been disabled long enough that even the oldest userspace
working userspace setups anyone can find to test are fine with the
bdflush system call being removed.
Changing m68k fsp040_die to use force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of
calling do_exit directly is interesting only in that it is nearly the
most difficult of the incorrect uses of do_exit to remove.
The change to the seccomp code to simply send a signal instead of
calling do_coredump directly is a very nice little cleanup made
possible by realizing the existing signal sending helpers were missing
a little bit of functionality that is easy to provide"

I was debugging some crashes on parisc and I found out that there is a
crash possibility if a function using alloca is interrupted by a signal.
The reason for the crash is that the gcc alloca implementation leaves
garbage in the upper 32 bits of the sp register. This normally doesn't
matter (the upper bits are ignored because the PSW W-bit is clear),
however the signal delivery routine in the kernel uses full 64 bits of sp
and it fails with -EFAULT if the upper 32 bits are not zero.
I created this program that demonstrates the problem:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <alloca.h>
static __attribute__((noinline,noclone)) void aa(int *size)
{
void * volatile p = alloca(-*size);
while (1) ;
}
static void handler(int sig)
{
write(1, "signal delivered\n", 17);
_exit(0);
}
int main(void)
{
int size = -0x100;
signal(SIGALRM, handler);
alarm(1);
aa(&size);
}
If you compile it with optimizations, it will crash.
The "aa" function has this disassembly:
000106a0 <aa>:
106a0: 08 03 02 41 copy r3,r1
106a4: 08 1e 02 43 copy sp,r3

writeback: fix obtain a reference to a freeing memcg css

reiserfs: Remove unneed check in reiserfs_write_full_page()
udf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in udf_symlink function
reiserfs: add check for invalid 1st journal block
In commit fa8b90070a ("quota: wire up quotactl_path") we have wired up
new quotactl_path syscall. However some people in LWN discussion have
objected that the path based syscall is missing dirfd and flags argument
which is mostly standard for contemporary path based syscalls. Indeed
they have a point and after a discussion with Christian Brauner and
Sascha Hauer I've decided to disable the syscall for now and update its
API. Since there is no userspace currently using that syscall and it
hasn't been released in any major release, we should be fine.

As pointed out by commit
de9b8f5dcb ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")
init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.
As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().
Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().
Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().
Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

-preempt_disable();
...
cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);
