Thomas reports:
"While looking around in /proc on my v4.14.52 system I noticed that all
processes got a lot of "Locked" memory in /proc/*/smaps. A lot more
memory than a regular user can usually lock with mlock().
Commit 493b0e9d94 (in v4.14-rc1) seems to have changed the behavior
of "Locked".
Before that commit the code was like this. Notice the VM_LOCKED check.
(vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) ?
(unsigned long)(mss.pss >> (10 + PSS_SHIFT)) : 0);
After that commit Locked is now the same as Pss:
(unsigned long)(mss->pss >> (10 + PSS_SHIFT)));
This looks like a mistake."
Indeed, the commit has added mss->pss_locked with the correct value that
depends on VM_LOCKED, but forgot to actually use it. Fix it.

Pull vfs fix from Al Viro:
"Followup to procfs-seq_file series this window"
This fixes a memory leak by making sure that proc seq files release any
private data on close. The 'proc_seq_open' has to be properly paired
with 'proc_seq_release' that releases the extra private data.
* 'fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
proc: add proc_seq_release
kmemleak reported some memory leak on reading proc files. After adding
some debug lines, find that proc_seq_fops is using seq_release as
release handler, which won't handle the free of 'private' field of
seq_file, while in fact the open handler proc_seq_open could create
the private data with __seq_open_private when state_size is greater
than zero. So after reading files created with proc_create_seq_private,
such as /proc/timer_list and /proc/vmallocinfo, the private mem of a
seq_file is not freed. Fix it by adding the paired proc_seq_release
as the default release handler of proc_seq_ops instead of seq_release.

The rewrite of the cmdline fetching missed the fact that we used to also
return the final terminating NUL character of the last argument. I
hadn't noticed, and none of the tools I tested cared, but something
obviously must care, because Michal Kubecek noticed the change in
behavior.
Tweak the "find the end" logic to actually include the NUL character,
and once past the eend of argv, always start the strnlen() at the
expected (original) argument end.
This whole "allow people to rewrite their arguments in place" is a nasty
hack and requires that odd slop handling at the end of the argv array,
but it's our traditional model, so we continue to support it.

This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
There were no conflicts between this and the contents of linux-next
until just before the merge window, when we saw multiple problems:
- A minor conflict with my own y2038 fixes, which I could address
by adding another patch on top here.
- One semantic conflict with late changes to the NFS tree. I addressed
this by merging Deepa's original branch on top of the changes that
now got merged into mainline and making sure the merge commit includes
the necessary changes as produced by coccinelle.
- A trivial conflict against the removal of staging/lustre.
- Multiple conflicts against the VFS changes in the overlayfs tree.
These are still part of linux-next, but apparently this is no longer
intended for 4.18 [1], so I am ignoring that part.
As Deepa writes:
The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions.
Thomas Gleixner adds:
I think there is no point to drag that out for the next merge window.
The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core changes which
means that you're going to play that catchup game forever. Let's get
over with it towards the end of the merge window.

used to be, and makes the semantics for "cmdline goes past the end of

else entirely, but the traditional model is to just edit things in place

mmap_sem is on the hot path of kernel, and it very contended, but it is
abused too. It is used to protect arg_start|end and evn_start|end when
reading /proc/$PID/cmdline and /proc/$PID/environ, but it doesn't make
sense since those proc files just expect to read 4 values atomically and
not related to VM, they could be set to arbitrary values by C/R.
And, the mmap_sem contention may cause unexpected issue like below:
INFO: task ps:14018 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
Tainted: G E 4.9.79-009.ali3000.alios7.x86_64 #1
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this

Both Alexey Dobriyan and Michal Hocko suggested to use dedicated lock
for them to mitigate the abuse of mmap_sem.
So, introduce a new spinlock in mm_struct to protect the concurrent
access to arg_start|end, env_start|end and others, as well as replace
write map_sem to read to protect the race condition between prctl and
sys_brk which might break check_data_rlimit(), and makes prctl more
friendly to other VM operations.
This patch just eliminates the abuse of mmap_sem, but it can't resolve
the above hung task warning completely since the later
access_remote_vm() call needs acquire mmap_sem. The mmap_sem
scalability issue will be solved in the future.

- Add support for HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, so we properly support live
patching again.
- Add support for patching barrier_nospec in copy_from_user() and syscall entry.
- A couple of fixes for our data breakpoints on Book3S.
- A series from Nick optimising TLB/mm handling with the Radix MMU.
- Numerous small cleanups to squash sparse/gcc warnings from Mathieu Malaterre.
- Several series optimising various parts of the 32-bit code from Christophe Leroy.
- Removal of support for two old machines, "SBC834xE" and "C2K" ("GEFanuc,C2K"),
which is why the diffstat has so many deletions.
And many other small improvements & fixes.
There's a few out-of-area changes. Some minor ftrace changes OK'ed by Steve, and
a fix to our powernv cpuidle driver. Then there's a series touching mm, x86 and
fs/proc/task_mmu.c, which cleans up some details around pkey support. It was
ack'ed/reviewed by Ingo & Dave and has been in next for several weeks.

"Notable changes:
- Support for split PMD page table lock on 64-bit Book3S (Power8/9).
- Add support for HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, so we properly support
live patching again.
- Add support for patching barrier_nospec in copy_from_user() and
syscall entry.
- A couple of fixes for our data breakpoints on Book3S.
- A series from Nick optimising TLB/mm handling with the Radix MMU.
- Numerous small cleanups to squash sparse/gcc warnings from Mathieu
Malaterre.
- Several series optimising various parts of the 32-bit code from
Christophe Leroy.
- Removal of support for two old machines, "SBC834xE" and "C2K"
("GEFanuc,C2K"), which is why the diffstat has so many deletions.
And many other small improvements & fixes.
There's a few out-of-area changes. Some minor ftrace changes OK'ed by
Steve, and a fix to our powernv cpuidle driver. Then there's a series
touching mm, x86 and fs/proc/task_mmu.c, which cleans up some details
around pkey support. It was ack'ed/reviewed by Ingo & Dave and has
been in next for several weeks.

First of all, calling pid_revalidate() in the end of <pid>/* lookups
is *not* about closing any kind of races; that used to be true once
upon a time, but these days those comments are actively misleading.
Especially since pid_revalidate() doesn't even do d_drop() on
failure anymore. It doesn't matter, anyway, since once
pid_revalidate() starts returning false, ->d_delete() of those
dentries starts saying "don't keep"; they won't get stuck in
dcache any longer than they are pinned.
These calls cannot be just removed, though - the side effect of
pid_revalidate() (updating i_uid/i_gid/etc.) is what we are calling
it for here.
Let's separate the "update ownership" into a new helper (pid_update_inode())
and use it, both in lookups and in pid_revalidate() itself.
The comments in pid_revalidate() are also out of date - they refer to
the time when pid_revalidate() used to call d_drop() directly...

There can be a lot of workqueue workers and they all show up with the

This patch makes workqueue workers report the latest workqueue it was
executing for through /proc/PID/{comm,stat,status}. The extra
information is appended to the kthread name with intervening '+' if
currently executing, otherwise '-'.

# cat /proc/25/stat

Unfortunately, ps(1) truncates comm to 15 characters,
# ps 25

Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
We have some very odd semantics for reading the command line through
/proc, because we allow people to rewrite their own command line pretty
much at will, and things get positively funky when you extend your
command line past the point that used to be the end of the command line,
and is now in the environment variable area.
But our weird semantics doesn't mean that we should write weird and
complex code to handle them.
So re-write get_mm_cmdline() to be much simpler, and much more explicit
about what it is actually doing and why. And avoid the extra check for
"is there a NUL character at the end of the command line where I expect
one to be", by simply making the NUL character handling be part of the
normal "once you hit the end of the command line, stop at the first NUL
character" logic.
It's quite possible that we should stop the crazy "walk into
environment" entirely, but happily it's not really the usual case.
NOTE! We tried to really simplify and limit our odd cmdline parsing some
time ago, but people complained. See commit c2c0bb4462 ("proc: fix
PAGE_SIZE limit of /proc/$PID/cmdline") for details about why we have
this complexity.

This is a pure refactoring of the function, preparing for some further
cleanups. The thing was pretty illegible, and the core functionality
still is, but now the core loop is a bit more isolated from the thing
that goes on around it.
This was "inspired" by the confluence of kworker workqueue name cleanups
by Tejun, currently scheduled for 4.18, and commit 7f7ccc2ccc ("proc:
do not access cmdline nor environ from file-backed areas").
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
proc_pid_cmdline_read() and environ_read() directly access the target
process' VM to retrieve the command line and environment. If this
process remaps these areas onto a file via mmap(), the requesting
process may experience various issues such as extra delays if the
underlying device is slow to respond.
Let's simply refuse to access file-backed areas in these functions.
For this we add a new FOLL_ANON gup flag that is passed to all calls
to access_remote_vm(). The code already takes care of such failures
(including unmapped areas). Accesses via /proc/pid/mem were not
changed though.
This was assigned CVE-2018-1120.
Note for stable backports: the patch may apply to kernels prior to 4.11
but silently miss one location; it must be checked that no call to
access_remote_vm() keeps zero as the last argument.
