d0edd85283 ipc: convert invalid scenarios to use WARN_ON
Considering Linus' past rants about the (ab)use of BUG in the kernel, I
took a look at how we deal with such calls in ipc.  Given that any errors
or corruption in ipc code are most likely contained within the set of
processes participating in the broken mechanisms, there aren't really many
strong fatal system failure scenarios that would require a BUG call.
Also, if something is seriously wrong, ipc might not be the place for such
a BUG either.

1. For example, recently, a customer hit one of these BUG_ONs in shm
   after failing shm_lock().  A busted ID imho does not merit a BUG_ON,
   and WARN would have been better.

2. MSG_COPY functionality of posix msgrcv(2) for checkpoint/restore.
   I don't see how we can hit this anyway -- at least it should be IS_ERR.
    The 'copy' arg from do_msgrcv is always set by calling prepare_copy()
   first and foremost.  We could also probably drop this check altogether.
    Either way, it does not merit a BUG_ON.

3. No ->fault() callback for the fs getting the corresponding page --
   seems selfish to make the system unusable.

2d3862d26e lib/decompressors: use real out buf size for gunzip with kernel
When loading x86 64bit kernel above 4GiB with patched grub2, got kernel
gunzip error.

the new buffer is at 0x46fe000000ULL, decompressor_gzip is using
0xffffffb901ffffff as out_len.  gunzip in lib/zlib_inflate/inflate.c cap
that len to 0x01ffffff and decompress fails later.

We could hit this problem with crashkernel booting that uses kexec loading
kernel above 4GiB.

We have decompress_* support:
    1. inbuf[]/outbuf[] for kernel preboot.
    2. inbuf[]/flush() for initramfs
    3. fill()/flush() for initrd.
This bug only affect kernel preboot path that use outbuf[].

Add __decompress and take real out_buf_len for gunzip instead of guessing
wrong buf size.

This patch resolves https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16531.

When logical blkdev size > 512 then sector numbers become larger than the

9a5bc726d5 sysctl: fix int -> unsigned long assignments in INT_MIN case
The following

    if (val < 0)
        *lvalp = (unsigned long)-val;

is incorrect because the compiler is free to assume -val to be positive
and use a sign-extend instruction for extending the bit pattern.  This is
a problem if val == INT_MIN:

    # echo -2147483648 >/proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level
    # cat /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level
    -18446744071562067968

Cast to unsigned long before negation - that way we first sign-extend and
then negate an unsigned, which is well defined.  With this:

    # cat /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level
    -2147483648

1303a27c9c kexec: export KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE to vmcoreinfo
In x86_64, since v2.6.26 the KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE is changed to 512M, and
accordingly the MODULES_VADDR is changed to 0xffffffffa0000000.  However,
in v3.12 Kees Cook introduced kaslr to randomise the location of kernel.
And the kernel text mapping addr space is enlarged from 512M to 1G.  That
means now KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE is variable, its value is 512M when kaslr
support is not compiled in and 1G when kaslr support is compiled in.
Accordingly the MODULES_VADDR is changed too to be:

    #define MODULES_VADDR    (__START_KERNEL_map + KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE)

So when kaslr is compiled in and enabled, the kernel text mapping addr
space and modules vaddr space need be adjusted.  Otherwise makedumpfile
will collapse since the addr for some symbols is not correct.

Hence KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE need be exported to vmcoreinfo and got in
makedumpfile to help calculate MODULES_VADDR.

bbb78b8f3f kexec: align crash_notes allocation to make it be inside one physical page
People reported that crash_notes in /proc/vmcore were corrupted and this
cause crash kdump failure.  With code debugging and log we got the root
cause.  This is because percpu variable crash_notes are allocated in 2
vmalloc pages.  Currently percpu is based on vmalloc by default.  Vmalloc
can't guarantee 2 continuous vmalloc pages are also on 2 continuous
physical pages.  So when 1st kernel exports the starting address and size
of crash_notes through sysfs like below:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpux/crash_notes
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpux/crash_notes_size

kdump kernel use them to get the content of crash_notes.  However the 2nd
part may not be in the next neighbouring physical page as we expected if
crash_notes are allocated accross 2 vmalloc pages.  That's why
nhdr_ptr->n_namesz or nhdr_ptr->n_descsz could be very huge in
update_note_header_size_elf64() and cause note header merging failure or
some warnings.

In this patch change to call __alloc_percpu() to passed in the align value
by rounding crash_notes_size up to the nearest power of two.  This makes
sure the crash_notes is allocated inside one physical page since
sizeof(note_buf_t) in all ARCHS is smaller than PAGE_SIZE.  Meanwhile add
a BUILD_BUG_ON to break compile if size is bigger than PAGE_SIZE since
crash_notes definitely will be in 2 pages.  That need be avoided, and need
be reported if it's unavoidable.

2965faa5e0 kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code
There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
 kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c.  In this patch I
split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.

And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.

The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled.  But kexec-tools use
kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.

Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel.  KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.

Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig.  Also updated general kernel code with to
kexec_load syscall.

40f705a736 fs: Don't dump core if the corefile would become world-readable.
On a filesystem like vfat, all files are created with the same owner
and mode independent of who created the file. When a vfat filesystem
is mounted with root as owner of all files and read access for everyone,
root's processes left world-readable coredumps on it (but other
users' processes only left empty corefiles when given write access
because of the uid mismatch).

Given that the old behavior was inconsistent and insecure, I don't see
a problem with changing it. Now, all processes refuse to dump core unless
the resulting corefile will only be readable by their owner.

fbb1816942 fs: if a coredump already exists, unlink and recreate with O_EXCL
It was possible for an attacking user to trick root (or another user) into
writing his coredumps into an attacker-readable, pre-existing file using
rename() or link(), causing the disclosure of secret data from the victim
process' virtual memory.  Depending on the configuration, it was also
possible to trick root into overwriting system files with coredumps.  Fix
that issue by never writing coredumps into existing files.

Requirements for the attack:
 - The attack only applies if the victim's process has a nonzero
   RLIMIT_CORE and is dumpable.
 - The attacker can trick the victim into coredumping into an
   attacker-writable directory D, either because the core_pattern is
   relative and the victim's cwd is attacker-writable or because an
   absolute core_pattern pointing to a world-writable directory is used.
 - The attacker has one of these:
  A: on a system with protected_hardlinks=0:
     execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned,
     attacker-readable file on the same partition as D, and the
     victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack
     takes place. (In practice, there are lots of files that fulfill
     this condition, e.g. entries in Debian's /var/lib/dpkg/info/.)
     This does not apply to most Linux systems because most distros set
     protected_hardlinks=1.
  B: on a system with protected_hardlinks=1:
     execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned,
     attacker-readable and attacker-writable file on the same partition
     as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part
     of the attack takes place.
     (This seems to be uncommon.)
  C: on any system, independent of protected_hardlinks:
     write access to a non-sticky folder containing a victim-owned,
     attacker-readable file on the same partition as D
     (This seems to be uncommon.)

The basic idea is that the attacker moves the victim-owned file to where
he expects the victim process to dump its core.  The victim process dumps
its core into the existing file, and the attacker reads the coredump from
it.

If the attacker can't move the file because he does not have write access
to the containing directory, he can instead link the file to a directory
he controls, then wait for the original link to the file to be deleted
(because the kernel checks that the link count of the corefile is 1).

A less reliable variant that requires D to be non-sticky works with link()
and does not require deletion of the original link: link() the file into
D, but then unlink() it directly before the kernel performs the link count
check.

On systems with protected_hardlinks=0, this variant allows an attacker to
not only gain information from coredumps, but also clobber existing,
victim-writable files with coredumps.  (This could theoretically lead to a
privilege escalation.)

that.  Khelper still had the older limitation due to its singlethread
properties but we replaced it to system unbound workqueues.

Those are affine to the current node and can block up to some number of
instances.

They are a good candidate to handle UMH_WAIT_PROC assuming that we have
enough system unbound workers to handle lots of parallel usermodehelper
jobs.

90f023030e kmod: use system_unbound_wq instead of khelper
We need to launch the usermodehelper kernel threads with the widest
affinity and this is partly why we use khelper.  This workqueue has
unbound properties and thus a wide affinity inherited by all its children.

Now khelper also has special properties that we aren't much interested in:
ordered and singlethread.  There is really no need about ordering as all
we do is creating kernel threads.  This can be done concurrently.  And
singlethread is a useless limitation as well.

The workqueue engine already proposes generic unbound workqueues that
don't share these useless properties and handle well parallel jobs.

The only worrysome specific is their affinity to the node of the current
CPU.  It's fine for creating the usermodehelper kernel threads but those
inherit this affinity for longer jobs such as requesting modules.

This patch proposes to use these node affine unbound workqueues assuming
that a node is sufficient to handle several parallel usermodehelper
requests.

b639e86bae kmod: add up-to-date explanations on the purpose of each asynchronous levels
There seem to be quite some confusions on the comments, likely due to
changes that came after them.

Now since it's very non obvious why we have 3 levels of asynchronous code
to implement usermodehelpers, it's important to comment in detail the
reason of this layout.

d097c0240a kmod: remove unecessary explicit wide CPU affinity setting
Khelper is affine to all CPUs.  Now since it creates the
call_usermodehelper_exec_[a]sync() kernel threads, those inherit the wide
affinity.

As such explicitly forcing a wide affinity from those kernel threads
is like a no-op.

Just remove it. It's needless and it breaks CPU isolation users who
rely on workqueue affinity tuning.

b6b50a814d kmod: bunch of internal functions renames
This patchset does a bunch of cleanups and converts khelper to use system
unbound workqueues.  The 3 first patches should be uncontroversial.  The
last 2 patches are debatable.

Kmod creates kernel threads that perform userspace jobs and we want those
to have a large affinity in order not to contend busy CPUs.  This is
(partly) why we use khelper which has a wide affinity that the kernel
threads it create can inherit from.  Now khelper is a dedicated workqueue
that has singlethread properties which we aren't interested in.

Hence those two debatable changes:

_ We would like to use generic workqueues. System unbound workqueues are
  a very good candidate but they are not wide affine, only node affine.
  Now probably a node is enough to perform many parallel kmod jobs.

_ We would like to remove the wait_for_helper kernel thread (UMH_WAIT_PROC
  handler) to use the workqueue. It means that if the workqueue blocks,
  and no other worker can take pending kmod request, we can be screwed.
  Now if we have 512 threads, this should be enough.

This patch (of 5):

Underscores on function names aren't much verbose to explain the purpose
of a function.  And kmod has interesting such flavours.

Lets rename the following functions:

* __call_usermodehelper -> call_usermodehelper_exec_work
* ____call_usermodehelper -> call_usermodehelper_exec_async
* wait_for_helper -> call_usermodehelper_exec_sync

7cb74be6fd hfs,hfsplus: cache pages correctly between bnode_create and bnode_free
Pages looked up by __hfs_bnode_create() (called by hfs_bnode_create() and
hfs_bnode_find() for finding or creating pages corresponding to an inode)
are immediately kmap()'ed and used (both read and write) and kunmap()'ed,
and should not be page_cache_release()'ed until hfs_bnode_free().

This patch fixes a problem I first saw in July 2012: merely running "du"
on a large hfsplus-mounted directory a few times on a reasonably loaded
system would get the hfsplus driver all confused and complaining about
B-tree inconsistencies, and generates a "BUG: Bad page state".  Most
recently, I can generate this problem on up-to-date Fedora 22 with shipped
kernel 4.0.5, by running "du /" (="/" + "/home" + "/mnt" + other smaller
mounts) and "du /mnt" simultaneously on two windows, where /mnt is a
lightly-used QEMU VM image of the full Mac OS X 10.9:

$ df -i / /home /mnt
Filesystem                  Inodes   IUsed      IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/fedora-root    3276800  551665    2725135   17% /
/dev/mapper/fedora-home   52879360  716221   52163139    2% /home
/dev/nbd0p2             4294967295 1387818 4293579477    1% /mnt

After applying the patch, I was able to run "du /" (60+ times) and "du
/mnt" (150+ times) continuously and simultaneously for 6+ hours.

There are many reports of the hfsplus driver getting confused under load
and generating "BUG: Bad page state" or other similar issues over the
years.  [1]

The unpatched code [2] has always been wrong since it entered the kernel
tree.  The only reason why it gets away with it is that the
kmap/memcpy/kunmap follow very quickly after the page_cache_release() so
the kernel has not had a chance to reuse the memory for something else,
most of the time.

The current RW driver appears to have followed the design and development
of the earlier read-only hfsplus driver [3], where-by version 0.1 (Dec
2001) had a B-tree node-centric approach to
read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put(),
migrating towards version 0.2 (June 2002) of caching and releasing pages
per inode extents.  When the current RW code first entered the kernel [2]
in 2005, there was an REF_PAGES conditional (and "//" commented out code)
to switch between B-node centric paging to inode-centric paging.  There
was a mistake with the direction of one of the REF_PAGES conditionals in
__hfs_bnode_create().  In a subsequent "remove debug code" commit [4], the
read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put() were
removed, but a page_cache_release() was mistakenly left in (propagating
the "REF_PAGES <-> !REF_PAGE" mistake), and the commented-out
page_cache_release() in bnode_release() (which should be spanned by
!REF_PAGES) was never enabled.

3725e9dd5b fs/coda: fix readlink buffer overflow
Dan Carpenter discovered a buffer overflow in the Coda file system
readlink code.  A userspace file system daemon can return a 4096 byte
result which then triggers a one byte write past the allocated readlink
result buffer.

This does not trigger with an unmodified Coda implementation because Coda
has a 1024 byte limit for symbolic links, however other userspace file
systems using the Coda kernel module could be affected.

Although this is an obvious overflow, I don't think this has to be handled
as too sensitive from a security perspective because the overflow is on
the Coda userspace daemon side which already needs root to open Coda's
kernel device and to mount the file system before we get to the point that
links can be read.

In kmalloc_oob_krealloc_less, I think it is better to test

If we do not call krealloc, the access of position size1 will still cause
out-of-bounds and access of position size2 does not.  After call krealloc,
the access of position size2 cause out-of-bounds.  So using size2 is more
correct.

to reflect that it is a limit, not a list of additional characters to
escape.

d89a3f7335 lib/string_helpers: clarify esc arg in string_escape_mem
The esc argument is used to reduce which characters will be escaped.  For
example, using " " with ESCAPE_SPACE will not produce any escaped spaces.

cdf17449af hexdump: do not print debug dumps for !CONFIG_DEBUG
print_hex_dump_debug() is likely supposed to be analogous to pr_debug() or
dev_dbg() & friends.  Currently it will adhere to dynamic debug, but will
not stub out prints if CONFIG_DEBUG is not set.  Let's make it do the
right thing, because I am tired of having my dmesg buffer full of hex
dumps on production systems.

9bf98f168b lib/bitmap.c: bitmap_parselist can accept string with whitespaces on head or tail
In __bitmap_parselist we can accept whitespaces on head or tail during
every parsing procedure.  If input has valid ranges, there is no reason to
reject the user.

For example, bitmap_parselist(" 1-3, 5, ", &mask, nmaskbits).  After
separating the string, we get " 1-3", " 5", and " ".  It's possible and
reasonable to accept such string as long as the parsing result is correct.

d9282cb663 lib/bitmap.c: fix a special string handling bug in __bitmap_parselist
If string end with '-', for exapmle, bitmap_parselist("1,0-",&mask,
nmaskbits), It is not in a valid pattern, so add a check after loop.
Return -EINVAL on such condition.
