2014-09-02x86, fpu: shift drop_init_fpu() from save_xstate_sig() to handle_signal()Oleg Nesterov
save_xstate_sig()->drop_init_fpu() doesn't look right. setup_rt_frame() can fail after that, in this case the next setup_rt_frame() triggered by SIGSEGV won't save fpu simply because the old state was lost. This obviously mean that fpu won't be restored after sys_rt_sigreturn() from SIGSEGV handler. Shift drop_init_fpu() into !failed branch in handle_signal(). Test-case (needs -O2): #include <stdio.h> #include <signal.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <assert.h> volatile double D; void test(double d) { int pid = getpid(); for (D = d; D == d; ) { /* sys_tkill(pid, SIGHUP); asm to avoid save/reload * fp regs around "C" call */ asm ("" : : "a"(200), "D"(pid), "S"(1)); asm ("syscall" : : : "ax"); } printf("ERR!!\n"); } void sigh(int sig) { } char altstack[4096 * 10] __attribute__((aligned(4096))); void *tfunc(void *arg) { for (;;) { mprotect(altstack, sizeof(altstack), PROT_READ); mprotect(altstack, sizeof(altstack), PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE); } } int main(void) { stack_t st = { .ss_sp = altstack, .ss_size = sizeof(altstack), .ss_flags = SS_ONSTACK, }; struct sigaction sa = { .sa_handler = sigh, }; pthread_t pt; sigaction(SIGSEGV, &sa, NULL); sigaltstack(&st, NULL); sa.sa_flags = SA_ONSTACK; sigaction(SIGHUP, &sa, NULL); pthread_create(&pt, NULL, tfunc, NULL); test(123.456); return 0; } Reported-by: Bean Anderson <bean@azulsystems.com> Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140902175713.GA21646@redhat.com Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # v3.7+ Signed-off-by: H.

2014-05-05x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time CAndy Lutomirski
Currently, vdso.so files are prepared and analyzed by a combination of objcopy, nm, some linker script tricks, and some simple ELF parsers in the kernel. Replace all of that with plain C code that runs at build time. All five vdso images now generate .c files that are compiled and linked in to the kernel image. This should cause only one userspace-visible change: the loaded vDSO images are stripped more heavily than they used to be. Everything outside the loadable segment is dropped. In particular, this causes the section table and section name strings to be missing. This should be fine: real dynamic loaders don't load or inspect these tables anyway. The result is roughly equivalent to eu-strip's --strip-sections option. The purpose of this change is to enable the vvar and hpet mappings to be moved to the page following the vDSO load segment. Currently, it is possible for the section table to extend into the page after the load segment, so, if we map it, it risks overlapping the vvar or hpet page. This happens whenever the load segment is just under a multiple of PAGE_SIZE. The only real subtlety here is that the old code had a C file with inline assembler that did 'call VDSO32_vsyscall' and a linker script that defined 'VDSO32_vsyscall = __kernel_vsyscall'. This most likely worked by accident: the linker script entry defines a symbol associated with an address as opposed to an alias for the real dynamic symbol __kernel_vsyscall. That caused ld to relocate the reference at link time instead of leaving an interposable dynamic relocation. Since the VDSO32_vsyscall hack is no longer needed, I now use 'call __kernel_vsyscall', and I added -Bsymbolic to make it work. vdso2c will generate an error and abort the build if the resulting image contains any dynamic relocations, so we won't silently generate bad vdso images. (Dynamic relocations are a problem because nothing will even attempt to relocate the vdso.)

For performance reasons, when SMAP is in use, SMAP is left open for an entire put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch(); block, however, calling __put_user() in the middle of that block will close SMAP as the STAC..CLAC constructs intentionally do not nest. Furthermore, using __put_user() rather than put_user_ex() here is bad for performance. Thus, introduce new [compat_]save_altstack_ex() helpers that replace __[compat_]save_altstack() for x86, being currently the only architecture which supports put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch().

2013-05-28x86/signals: Propagate RF EFLAGS bit through the signal restore callJiri Olsa
While porting Vince's perf overflow tests I found perf event breakpoint overflow does not work properly. I found the x86 RF EFLAG bit not being set when returning from debug exception after triggering signal handler. Which is exactly what you get when you set perf breakpoint overflow SIGIO handler. This patch and the next two patches fix the underlying bugs. This patch adds the RF EFLAGS bit to be restored on return from signal from the original register context before the signal was entered. This will prevent the RF flag to disappear when returning from exception due to the signal handler being executed.

Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility, posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315, and are at branch rcu/stall. The most notable change reduces the default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds, so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout. 7.

2012-09-21x86, smap: Reduce the SMAP overhead for signal handlingH. Peter Anvin
Signal handling contains a bunch of accesses to individual user space items, which causes an excessive number of STAC and CLAC instructions. Instead, let get/put_user_try ... get/put_user_catch() contain the STAC and CLAC instructions. This means that get/put_user_try no longer nests, and furthermore that it is no longer legal to use user space access functions other than __get/put_user_ex() inside those blocks. However, these macros are x86-specific anyway and are only used in the signal-handling paths; a simple reordering of moving the larger subroutine calls out of the try...catch blocks resolves that problem.

2012-09-18x86, fpu: Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernelsSuresh Siddha
Currently for x86 and x86_32 binaries, fpstate in the user sigframe is copied to/from the fpstate in the task struct. And in the case of signal delivery for x86_64 binaries, if the fpstate is live in the CPU registers, then the live state is copied directly to the user sigframe. Otherwise fpstate in the task struct is copied to the user sigframe. During restore, fpstate in the user sigframe is restored directly to the live CPU registers. Historically, different code paths led to different bugs. For example, x86_64 code path was not preemption safe till recently. Also there is lot of code duplication for support of new features like xsave etc. Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels. New strategy is as follows: Signal delivery: Both for 32/64-bit frames, align the core math frame area to 64bytes as needed by xsave (this where the main fpu/extended state gets copied to and excludes the legacy compatibility fsave header for the 32-bit [f]xsave frames). If the state is live, copy the register state directly to the user frame. If not live, copy the state in the thread struct to the user frame. And for 32-bit [f]xsave frames, construct the fsave header separately before the actual [f]xsave area. Signal return: As the 32-bit frames with [f]xstate has an additional 'fsave' header, copy everything back from the user sigframe to the fpstate in the task structure and reconstruct the fxstate from the 'fsave' header (Also user passed pointers may not be correctly aligned for any attempt to directly restore any partial state). At the next fpstate usage, everything will be restored to the live CPU registers. For all the 64-bit frames and the 32-bit fsave frame, restore the state from the user sigframe directly to the live CPU registers. 64-bit signals always restored the math frame directly, so we can expect the math frame pointer to be correctly aligned. For 32-bit fsave frames, there are no alignment requirements, so we can restore the state directly. "lat_sig catch" microbenchmark numbers (for x86, x86_64, x86_32 binaries) are with in the noise range with this change.

2012-06-01x86: get rid of calling do_notify_resume() when returning to kernel modeAl Viro
If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop. It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume() and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in do_signal()... Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm glue takes care of that.

The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address. vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content. The probe points are kept in an rbtree. If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer. Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a dynamic callback list of event consumers. The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers. The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of entries (which limits probe execution parallelism). The API: uprobes are installed/removed via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate to it. Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed by setting perf_paranoid to -1. You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."

2012-03-14uprobes/core: Handle breakpoint and singlestep exceptionsSrikar Dronamraju
Uprobes uses exception notifiers to get to know if a thread hit a breakpoint or a singlestep exception. When a thread hits a uprobe or is singlestepping post a uprobe hit, the uprobe exception notifier sets its TIF_UPROBE bit, which will then be checked on its return to userspace path (do_notify_resume() ->uprobe_notify_resume()), where the consumers handlers are run (in task context) based on the defined filters. Uprobe hits are thread specific and hence we need to maintain information about if a task hit a uprobe, what uprobe was hit, the slot where the original instruction was copied for xol so that it can be singlestepped with appropriate fixups. In some cases, special care is needed for instructions that are executed out of line (xol). These are architecture specific artefacts, such as handling RIP relative instructions on x86_64. Since the instruction at which the uprobe was inserted is executed out of line, architecture specific fixups are added so that the thread continues normal execution in the presence of a uprobe. Postpone the signals until we execute the probed insn. post_xol() path does a recalc_sigpending() before return to user-mode, this ensures the signal can't be lost. Uprobes relies on DIE_DEBUG notification to notify if a singlestep is complete. Adds x86 specific uprobe exception notifiers and appropriate hooks needed to determine a uprobe hit and subsequent post processing. Add requisite x86 fixups for xol for uprobes. Specific cases needing fixups include relative jumps (x86_64), calls, etc. Where possible, we check and skip singlestepping the breakpointed instructions. For now we skip single byte as well as few multibyte nop instructions. However this can be extended to other instructions too.

2012-02-21i387: Split up <asm/i387.h> into exported and internal interfacesLinus Torvalds
While various modules include <asm/i387.h> to get access to things we actually *intend* for them to use, most of that header file was really pretty low-level internal stuff that we really don't want to expose to others. So split the header file into two: the small exported interfaces remain in <asm/i387.h>, while the internal definitions that are only used by core architecture code are now in <asm/fpu-internal.h>. The guiding principle for this was to expose functions that we export to modules, and leave them in <asm/i387.h>, while stuff that is used by task switching or was marked GPL-only is in <asm/fpu-internal.h>. The fpu-internal.h file could be further split up too, especially since arch/x86/kvm/ uses some of the remaining stuff for its module. But that kvm usage should probably be abstracted out a bit, and at least now the internal FPU accessor functions are much more contained. Even if it isn't perhaps as contained as it _could_ be.
