2012-07-28ARM: 7475/1: sys_trace: allow all syscall arguments to be updated via ptraceWill Deacon
Prior to syscall invocation, __sys_trace only reloads r0-r3 from the kernel stack, preventing the debugger from updating arguments 5-7 when signalled via ptrace. This patch updates the code to reload r0-r6, updating arguments 5 and 6 on the stack (argument 7 is only used by OABI indirect syscalls and can remain in a register).

2012-07-09ARM: 7456/1: ptrace: provide separate functions for tracing syscall {entry,exit}Will Deacon
The syscall_trace on ARM takes a `why' parameter to indicate whether or not we are entering or exiting a system call. This can be confusing for people looking at the code since (a) it conflicts with the why register alias in the entry assembly code and (b) it is not immediately clear what it represents. This patch splits up the syscall_trace function into separate wrappers for syscall entry and exit, allowing the low-level syscall handling code to branch to the appropriate function.

2012-07-09ARM: 7454/1: entry: don't bother with syscall tracing on ret_from_fork pathWill Deacon
ret_from_fork is setup for a freshly spawned child task via copy_thread, called from copy_process. The latter function clears TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE and also resets the child task's audit_context to NULL, meaning that there is little point invoking the system call tracing routines. Furthermore, getting hold of the syscall number is a complete pain and it looks like the current code doesn't even bother. This patch removes the syscall tracing checks from ret_from_fork.

2012-01-25ARM: 7299/1: ftrace: clear zero bit in reported IPs for Thumb-2Rabin Vincent
The dynamic ftrace ops startup test currently fails on Thumb-2 kernels: Testing tracer function: PASSED Testing dynamic ftrace: PASSED Testing dynamic ftrace ops #1: (0 0 0 0 0) FAILED! This is because while the addresses in the mcount records do not have the zero bit set, the IP reported by the mcount call does have it set (because it is copied from the LR). This mismatch causes the ops filtering in ftrace_ops_list_func() to not call the relevant tracers. Fix this by clearing the zero bit before adjusting the LR for the mcount instruction size. Also, combine the mov+sub into a single sub instruction.

2012-01-17Kernel: Audit Support For The ARM PlatformNathaniel Husted
This patch provides functionality to audit system call events on the ARM platform. The implementation was based off the structure of the MIPS platform and information in this (http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2009-October/000382.html) mailing list thread. The required audit_syscall_exit and audit_syscall_entry checks were added to ptrace using the standard registers for system call values (r0 through r3). A thread information flag was added for auditing (TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT) and a meta-flag was added (_TIF_SYSCALL_WORK) to simplify modifications to the syscall entry/exit. Now, if either the TRACE flag is set or the AUDIT flag is set, the syscall_trace function will be executed. The prober changes were made to Kconfig to allow CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL to be enabled. Due to platform availability limitations, this patch was only tested on the Android platform running the modified "android-goldfish-2.6.29" kernel. A test compile was performed using Code Sourcery's cross-compilation toolset and the current linux-3.0 stable kernel. The changes compile without error. I'm hoping, due to the simple modifications, the patch is "obviously correct". Signed-off-by: Nathaniel Husted <nhusted@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2011-06-06ARM: 6952/1: fix lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"Ming Lei
This patch fixes the lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"[1]. After entering __irq_usr, arm core will disable interrupt automatically, but __irq_usr does not annotate the irq disable, so lockdep may complain the warning if it has chance to check this in irq handler. This patch adds trace_hardirqs_off in __irq_usr before entering irq_handler to handle the irq, also calls ret_to_user_from_irq to avoid calling disable_irq again. This is also a fix for irq off tracer.

2010-09-17arm: fix really nasty sigreturn bugAl Viro
If a signal hits us outside of a syscall and another gets delivered when we are in sigreturn (e.g. because it had been in sa_mask for the first one and got sent to us while we'd been in the first handler), we have a chance of returning from the second handler to location one insn prior to where we ought to return. If r0 happens to contain -513 (-ERESTARTNOINTR), sigreturn will get confused into doing restart syscall song and dance. Incredible joy to debug, since it manifests as random, infrequent and very hard to reproduce double execution of instructions in userland code... The fix is simple - mark it "don't bother with restarts" in wrapper, i.e. set r8 to 0 in sys_sigreturn and sys_rt_sigreturn wrappers, suppressing the syscall restart handling on return from these guys. They can't legitimately return a restart-worthy error anyway. Testcase: #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <errno.h> void f(int n) { __asm__ __volatile__( "ldr r0, [%0]\n" "b 1f\n" "b 2f\n" "1:b .\n" "2:\n" : : "r"(&n)); } void handler1(int sig) { } void handler2(int sig) { raise(1); } void handler3(int sig) { exit(0); } main() { struct sigaction s = {.sa_handler = handler2}; struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} }; struct itimerval t2 = { .it_value = {2} }; signal(1, handler1); sigemptyset(&s.sa_mask); sigaddset(&s.sa_mask, 1); sigaction(SIGALRM, &s, NULL); signal(SIGVTALRM, handler3); setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &t1, NULL); setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &t2, NULL); f(-513); /* -ERESTARTNOINTR */ write(1, "buggered\n", 9); return 1; } Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Tested here with eabi userspace and a test program with a deliberate race between a child's exit and the parent's sigprocmask/select sequence. Using sys_pselect6() instead of sigprocmask/select reliably prevents the race. The other arch's support for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK has evolved over time: In 2.6.16: - add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK which parallels TIF_SIGPENDING - test both when checking for pending signal [changed later] - reimplement sys_sigsuspend() to use current->saved_sigmask, TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK [changed later], and -ERESTARTNOHAND; ditto for sys_rt_sigsuspend(), but drop private code and use common code via __ARCH_WANT_SYS_RT_SIGSUSPEND; - there are now no "extra" calls to do_signal() so its oldset parameter is always &current->blocked so need not be passed, also its return value is changed to void - change handle_signal() to return 0/-errno - change do_signal() to honor TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK: + get oldset from current->saved_sigmask if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set + if handle_signal() was successful then clear TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK + if no signal was delivered and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set then clear it and restore the sigmask - hook up sys_pselect6() and sys_ppoll() In 2.6.19: - hook up sys_epoll_pwait() In 2.6.26: - allow archs to override how TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is implemented; default set_restore_sigmask() sets both TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK and TIF_SIGPENDING; archs need now just test TIF_SIGPENDING again when checking for pending signal work; some archs now implement TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK as a secondary/non-atomic thread flag bit - call set_restore_sigmask() in sys_sigsuspend() instead of setting TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK In 2.6.29-rc: - kill sys_pselect7() which no arch wanted So for 2.6.31-rc6/ARM this patch does the following: - Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK. Use the generic set_restore_sigmask() which sets both TIF_SIGPENDING and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, so TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK need not claim one of the scarce low thread flags, and existing TIF_SIGPENDING and _TIF_WORK_MASK tests need not be extended for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK. - sys_sigsuspend() is reimplemented to use current->saved_sigmask and set_restore_sigmask(), making it identical to most other archs - The private code for sys_rt_sigsuspend() is removed, instead generic code supplies it via __ARCH_WANT_SYS_RT_SIGSUSPEND. - sys_sigsuspend() and sys_rt_sigsuspend() no longer need a pt_regs parameter, so their assembly code wrappers are removed. - handle_signal() is changed to return 0 on success or -errno. - The oldset parameter to do_signal() is now redundant and removed, and the return value is now also redundant and changed to void. - do_signal() is changed to honor TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK: + get oldset from current->saved_sigmask if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set + if handle_signal() was successful then clear TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK + if no signal was delivered and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set then clear it and restore the sigmask - Hook up sys_pselect6, sys_ppoll, and sys_epoll_pwait.

2009-05-30Add core support for ARMv6/v7 big-endianCatalin Marinas
Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian (byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support: - setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and user threads - big-endian page table walking - REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault processing as they are still little-endian format - Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to little-endian Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

2009-03-05[ARM] 5418/1: restore lr before leaving mcountUwe Kleine-König
gcc seems to expect that lr isn't clobbered by mcount, because for a function starting with: static int func(void) { void *ra = __builtin_return_address(0); printk(KERN_EMERG "__builtin_return_address(0) = %pS\n", ra) ... the following assembler is generated by gcc 4.3.2: 0: e1a0c00d mov ip, sp 4: e92dd810 push {r4, fp, ip, lr, pc} 8: e24cb004 sub fp, ip, #4 ; 0x4 c: ebfffffe bl 0 <mcount> 10: e59f0034 ldr r0, [pc, #52] 14: e1a0100e mov r1, lr 18: ebfffffe bl 0 <printk> Without this patch obviously __builtin_return_address(0) yields func+0x10 instead of the return address of the caller. Note this patch fixes a similar issue for the routines used with dynamic ftrace even though this isn't currently selectable for ARM.

Due to confusion between the ftrace infrastructure and the gcc profiling tracer "ftrace", this patch renames the config options from FTRACE to FUNCTION_TRACER. The other two names that are offspring from FTRACE DYNAMIC_FTRACE and FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD will stay the same. This patch was generated mostly by script, and partially by hand.
