2010-07-27ARM: 6268/1: ARMv6K and ARMv7 use fault statuses 3 and 6 as Access Flag faultKirill A. Shutemov
Statuses 3 (0b00011) and 6 (0x00110) of DFSR are Access Flags faults on ARMv6K and ARMv7. Let's patch fsr_info[] at runtime if we are on ARMv7 or later. Unfortunately, we don't have runtime check for 'K' extension, so we can't check for it. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2010-07-27ARM: 6255/1: Workaround infinity loop in handling of translation faultsKirill A. Shutemov
On ARM one Linux PGD entry contains two hardware entries (see page tables layout in pgtable.h). We normally guarantee that we always fill both L1 entries. But create_mapping() doesn't follow the rule. It can create inidividual L1 entries, so here we have to call pmd_none() check in do_translation_fault() for the entry really corresponded to address, not for the first of pair.

2010-05-15ARM: 6134/1: Handle instruction cache maintenance fault properlyKirill A. Shutemov
Between "clean D line..." and "invalidate I line" operations in v7_coherent_user_range(), the memory page may get swapped out. And the fault on "invalidate I line" could not be properly handled causing the oops. In ARMv6 "external abort on linefetch" replaced by "instruction cache maintenance fault". Let's handle it as translation fault. It fixes the issue. I'm not sure if it's reasonable to check arch version in run-time. Let's do it in compile time for now.

2009-10-05ARM: 5742/1: ARM: add debug check for invalid kernel page faultsImre Deak
According to the following in arch/arm/mm/fault.c page faults from kernel mode are invalid if mmap_sem is already held and there is no exception handler defined for the faulting instruction: /* * As per x86, we may deadlock here. However, since the kernel only * validly references user space from well defined areas of the code, * we can bug out early if this is from code which shouldn't. */ if (!down_read_trylock(&mm->mmap_sem)) { if (!user_mode(regs) && !search_exception_tables(regs->ARM_pc)) goto no_context; Since mmap_sem can be held at arbitrary times by another thread this also means that any page faults from kernel mode are invalid if no exception handler is defined for them, regardless whether mmap_sem is held at the time of fault. To easier detect code that can trigger the above error, add a check also for the case where mmap_sem is acquired. As this has an overhead make it a VM debug check.

2009-10-02ARM: 5728/1: Proper prefetch abort handling on ARMv6 and ARMv7Kirill A. Shutemov
Currently, on ARMv6 and ARMv7, if an application tries to execute code (or garbage) on non-executable page it hangs. It caused by incorrect prefetch abort handling. Now every prefetch abort processes as a translation fault. To fix this we have to analyze instruction fault status register to figure out reason why we've got the abort and process it accordingly. To make IFSR different from DFSR we set bit 31 which is reserved in both IFSR and DFSR. This patch also tries to protect from future hangs on unexpected exceptions. An application will be killed if unexpected exception type was received. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill@shutemov.name> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2009-10-02ARM: 5727/1: Pass IFSR register to do_PrefetchAbort()Kirill A. Shutemov
Instruction fault status register, IFSR, was introduced on ARMv6 to provide status information about the last insturction fault. It needed for proper prefetch abort handling. Now we have three prefetch abort model: * legacy - for CPUs before ARMv6. They doesn't provide neither IFSR nor IFAR. We simulate IFSR with section translation fault status for them to generalize code; * ARMv6 - provides IFSR, but not IFAR; * ARMv7 - provides both IFSR and IFAR. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2009-09-20ARM: Add support for checking access permissions on prefetch abortsRussell King
ARMv6 introduces non-executable mappings, which can cause prefetch aborts when an attempt is made to execute from such a mapping. Currently, this causes us to loop in the page fault handler since we don't correctly check for proper permissions. Fix this by checking that VMAs have VM_EXEC set for prefetch aborts.

2009-09-20ARM: Separate out access error checkingRussell King

2007-10-19pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()Serge E. Hallyn
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check. Split it into is_global_init() and is_container_init(). A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1. A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace is the init_pid_ns. But rather than check the active pid namespace, compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance and remove dependence on the task_pid(). 2.6.21-mm2-pidns2: - [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc, ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init(). This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a bug rather than force a kernel panic.

2007-10-16During VM oom condition, kill all threads in process groupWill Schmidt
We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory condition. Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious that something has gone wrong. This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather than just the one thread.

2006-09-29[PATCH] pidspace: is_init()Sukadev Bhattiprolu
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch. (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280). It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init(). Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other patches for now. Eric's original description: There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init because we give it special properties. Most significantly init must not die. This results in code all over the kernel test ->pid == 1. Introduce is_init to capture this case. With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are looking for only the first process on the system, not some other process that has pid == 1. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-09-29[PATCH] make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READJason Baron
Make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ for a number of architectures which don't support write only in hardware. While looking at this, I noticed that some architectures which do not support write only mappings already take the exact same approach. For example, in arch/alpha/mm/fault.c: " if (cause < 0) { if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_EXEC)) goto bad_area; } else if (!cause) { /* Allow reads even for write-only mappings */ if (!(vma->vm_flags & (VM_READ | VM_WRITE))) goto bad_area; } else { if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE)) goto bad_area; } " Thus, this patch brings other architectures which do not support write only mappings in-line and consistent with the rest. I've verified the patch on ia64, x86_64 and x86. Additional discussion: Several architectures, including x86, can not support write-only mappings. The pte for x86 reserves a single bit for protection and its two states are read only or read/write. Thus, write only is not supported in h/w. Currently, if i 'mmap' a page write-only, the first read attempt on that page creates a page fault and will SEGV. That check is enforced in arch/blah/mm/fault.c. However, if i first write that page it will fault in and the pte will be set to read/write. Thus, any subsequent reads to the page will succeed. It is this inconsistency in behavior that this patch is attempting to address. Furthermore, if the page is swapped out, and then brought back the first read will also cause a SEGV. Thus, any arbitrary read on a page can potentially result in a SEGV. According to the SuSv3 spec, "if the application requests only PROT_WRITE, the implementation may also allow read access." Also as mentioned, some archtectures, such as alpha, shown above already take the approach that i am suggesting. The counter-argument to this raised by Arjan, is that the kernel is enforcing the write only mapping the best it can given the h/w limitations. This is true, however Alan Cox, and myself would argue that the inconsitency in behavior, that is applications can sometimes work/sometimes fails is highly undesireable. If you read through the thread, i think people, came to an agreement on the last patch i posted, as nobody has objected to it...
