He also found that this issue did not appear in more recent kernels since this asmregparm disappeared in 3.0-rc1 with commit 1b4ac2a935 that was applied after some UM changes that we don't necessarily want in 2.6.32. Thus, the cleanest fix for older kernels is to make the declaration in ptrace.h match the one in ptrace.c by specifying asmregparm on these functions. They're only called from asm which explains why it used to work despite the inconsistency in the declaration.

2013-06-10MCE: Fix vm86 handling for 32bit mce handlerAndi Kleen
commit a129a7c84582629741e5fa6f40026efcd7a65bd4 upstream. When running on 32bit the mce handler could misinterpret vm86 mode as ring 0. This can affect whether it does recovery or not; it was possible to panic when recovery was actually possible. Fix this by always forcing vm86 to look like ring 3. [ Backport to 3.0 notes: Things changed there slightly: - move mce_get_rip() up. It fills up m->cs and m->ip values which are evaluated in mce_severity(). Therefore move it up right before the mce_severity call. This seem to be another bug in 3.0? - Place the backport (fix m->cs in V86 case) to where m->cs gets filled which is mce_get_rip() in 3.0 ] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>

(CVE-2013-1796) commit c300aa64ddf57d9c5d9c898a64b36877345dd4a9 upstream. If the guest sets the GPA of the time_page so that the request to update the time straddles a page then KVM will write onto an incorrect page. The write is done byusing kmap atomic to get a pointer to the page for the time structure and then performing a memcpy to that page starting at an offset that the guest controls. Well behaved guests always provide a 32-byte aligned address, however a malicious guest could use this to corrupt host kernel memory. Tested: Tested against kvmclock unit test.

2013-06-10x86, mm, paravirt: Fix vmalloc_fault oops during lazy MMU updatesSamu Kallio
commit 1160c2779b826c6f5c08e5cc542de58fd1f667d5 upstream. In paravirtualized x86_64 kernels, vmalloc_fault may cause an oops when lazy MMU updates are enabled, because set_pgd effects are being deferred. One instance of this problem is during process mm cleanup with memory cgroups enabled. The chain of events is as follows: - zap_pte_range enables lazy MMU updates - zap_pte_range eventually calls mem_cgroup_charge_statistics, which accesses the vmalloc'd mem_cgroup per-cpu stat area - vmalloc_fault is triggered which tries to sync the corresponding PGD entry with set_pgd, but the update is deferred - vmalloc_fault oopses due to a mismatch in the PUD entries The OOPs usually looks as so: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:396! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP .. snip ..

2013-06-10x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel addressMel Gorman
commit 0ee364eb316348ddf3e0dfcd986f5f13f528f821 upstream. A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads /proc/kcore: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370 [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0 [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130 [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0 [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page. The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be walked resulting in the oops above. This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check. Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now they are running the backup program without accessing /proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it makes sense.

2013-06-10x86/msr: Add capabilities checkAlan Cox
commit c903f0456bc69176912dee6dd25c6a66ee1aed00 upstream At the moment the MSR driver only relies upon file system checks. This means that anything as root with any capability set can write to MSRs. Historically that wasn't very interesting but on modern processors the MSRs are such that writing to them provides several ways to execute arbitary code in kernel space. Sample code and documentation on doing this is circulating and MSR attacks are used on Windows 64bit rootkits already. In the Linux case you still need to be able to open the device file so the impact is fairly limited and reduces the security of some capability and security model based systems down towards that of a generic "root owns the box" setup. Therefore they should require CAP_SYS_RAWIO to prevent an elevation of capabilities. The impact of this is fairly minimal on most setups because they don't have heavy use of capabilities. Those using SELinux, SMACK or AppArmor rules might want to consider if their rulesets on the MSR driver could be tighter.

" Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves this problem: "This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)." The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the %cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is the approach taken in this patch. Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention and lead to accidents.

2013-06-10x86: Don't use the EFI reboot method by defaultMatthew Garrett
Testing suggests that at least some Lenovos and some Intels will fail to reboot via EFI, attempting to jump to an unmapped physical address. In the long run we could handle this by providing a page table with a 1:1 mapping of physical addresses, but for now it's probably just easier to assume that ACPI or legacy methods will be present and reboot via those.

2013-06-10x86, ioapic: initialize nr_ioapic_registers early in mp_register_ioapic()Suresh Siddha
Lin Bao reported that one of the HP platforms failed to boot 2.6.32 kernel, when the BIOS enabled interrupt-remapping and x2apic before handing over the control to the Linux kernel. During boot, Linux kernel masks all the interrupt sources (8259, IO-APIC RTE's), setup the interrupt-remapping hardware with the OS controlled table and unmasks the 8259 interrupts but not the IO-APIC RTE's (as the newly setup interrupt-remapping table and the IO-APIC RTE's are not yet programmed by the kernel). Shortly after this, IO-APIC RTE's and the interrupt-remapping table entries are programmed based on the ACPI tables etc. So the expectation is that any interrupt during this window will be dropped and not see the intermediate configuration. In the reported problematic case, BIOS has configured the IO-APIC in virtual wire-B mode. Between the window of the kernel setting up new interrupt-remapping table and the IO-APIC RTE's are properly configured, an interrupt gets routed by the IO-APIC RTE (setup by the virtual wire-B configuration) and sees the empty interrupt-remapping table entry, resulting in vt-d fault causing the platform to generate NMI. And the OS panics on this unexpected NMI. This problem doesn't happen with more recent kernels and closer look at the 2.6.32 kernel shows that the code which masks the IO-APIC RTE's is not working as expected as the nr_ioapic_registers for each IO-APIC is not yet initialized at this point. In the later kernels we initialize nr_ioapic_registers much before and everything works as expected. For 2.6.[32..34] kernels, fix this issue by initializing nr_ioapic_registers early in mp_register_ioapic() [ Relevant upstream commit info: commit 7716a5c4ff5f1f3dc5e9edcab125cbf7fceef0af Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Date: Tue Mar 30 01:07:12 2010 -0700 x86, ioapic: Move nr_ioapic_registers calculation to mp_register_ioapic. As the upstream commit depends on quite a few prior commits and some followup fixes in the mainline, we just picked the smallest relevant hunk for fixing the issue at hand. Problematic platform uses ACPI for IO-APIC, VT-d enumeration etc and this hunk only touches the ACPI based platforms. nr_ioapic_reigsters initialization in enable_IO_APIC() is still retained, so that other configurations like legacy MPS table based enumeration etc works with no change. ] Reported-and-tested-by: Zhang, Lin-Bao <linbao.zhang@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.

This is upstream commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316 backported to the 2.6.32.x stable branch. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

2012-10-07x86, random: Architectural inlines to get random integers with RDRANDH. Peter Anvin
commit 628c6246d47b85f5357298601df2444d7f4dd3fd upstream. Architectural inlines to get random ints and longs using the RDRAND instruction. Intel has introduced a new RDRAND instruction, a Digital Random Number Generator (DRNG), which is functionally an high bandwidth entropy source, cryptographic whitener, and integrity monitor all built into hardware. This enables RDRAND to be used directly, bypassing the kernel random number pool. For technical documentation, see: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/download-the-latest-bull-mountain-software-implementation-guide/ In this patch, this is *only* used for the nonblocking random number pool. RDRAND is a nonblocking source, similar to our /dev/urandom, and is therefore not a direct replacement for /dev/random. The architectural hooks presented in the previous patch only feed the kernel internal users, which only use the nonblocking pool, and so this is not a problem. Since this instruction is available in userspace, there is no reason to have a /dev/hw_rng device driver for the purpose of feeding rngd. This is especially so since RDRAND is a nonblocking source, and needs additional whitening and reduction (see the above technical documentation for details) in order to be of "pure entropy source" quality. The CONFIG_EXPERT compile-time option can be used to disable this use of RDRAND. Signed-off-by: H.

commit 3d3eeb2ef26112a200785e5fca58ec58dd33bf1e upstream. The invocation of softirq is now handled by irq_exit(), so there is no need for sparc64 to invoke it on the trap-return path. In fact, doing so is a bug because if the trap occurred in the idle loop, this invocation can result in lockdep-RCU failures. The problem is that RCU ignores idle CPUs, and the sparc64 trap-return path to the softirq handlers fails to tell RCU that the CPU must be considered non-idle while those handlers are executing. This means that RCU is ignoring any RCU read-side critical sections in those handlers, which in turn means that RCU-protected data can be yanked out from under those read-side critical sections. The shiny new lockdep-RCU ability to detect RCU read-side critical sections that RCU is ignoring located this problem. The fix is straightforward: Make sparc64 stop manually invoking the softirq handlers. Reported-by: Meelis Roos <mroos@linux.ee> Suggested-by: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some workloads. There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is correct.

2012-10-07powerpc: Fix kernel panic during kernel module loadSteffen Rumler
commit 3c75296562f43e6fbc6cddd3de948a7b3e4e9bcf upstream. This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading a kernel module. According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame. In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call() (in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used to generate trampoline code. This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the .text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper. Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame using r11 can cause an oops. The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is safe from an EABI perspective. I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

commit e787ec1376e862fcea1bfd523feb7c5fb43ecdb9 upstream. The inline assembly in kernel_execve() uses r8 and r9. Since this code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set to an incorrect value. This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space program in the system. r9 is used in ret_to_user as the thread_info pointer, and if it's wrong, bad things happen.

commit 9993bc635d01a6ee7f6b833b4ee65ce7c06350b1 upstream. When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However, when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is enough room to store the final answer. We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing the multiplication separately on the two components. Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous fix in __cycles_2_ns().

2012-10-07x86: Derandom delay_tsc for 64 bitThomas Gleixner
commit a7f4255f906f60f72e00aad2fb000939449ff32e upstream. Commit f0fbf0abc093 ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit. The reason is that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and delay_64.c. Though the subtle difference of the result was: static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops) { - unsigned bclock, now; + unsigned long bclock, now; Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64 bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when bclock is read, because the following check if ((now - bclock) >= loops) break; evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0 because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in 0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops value. That explains Tvortkos observation: "Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us." Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32 and 64 bit.

2012-10-07KVM: x86: fix missing checks in syscall emulationStephan Bärwolf
commit c2226fc9e87ba3da060e47333657cd6616652b84 upstream On hosts without this patch, 32bit guests will crash (and 64bit guests may behave in a wrong way) for example by simply executing following nasm-demo-application: [bits 32] global _start SECTION .text _start: syscall (I tested it with winxp and linux - both always crashed) Disassembly of section .text: 00000000 <_start>: 0: 0f 05 syscall The reason seems a missing "invalid opcode"-trap (int6) for the syscall opcode "0f05", which is not available on Intel CPUs within non-longmodes, as also on some AMD CPUs within legacy-mode. (depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid) Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple faults and finally crashs. Depending on the architecture (AMD or Intel) pretended by guests, various checks according to vendor's documentation are implemented to overcome the current issue and behave like the CPUs physical counterparts.

2012-10-07PNP: fix "work around Dell 1536/1546 BIOS MMCONFIG bug that breaks USB"Willy Tarreau
Initial stable commit : 2215d91091c465fd58da7814d1c10e09ac2d8307 This patch backported into 2.6.32.55 is enabled when CONFIG_AMD_NB is set, but this config option does not exist in 2.6.32, it was called CONFIG_K8_NB, so the fix was never applied. Some other changes were needed to make it work. first, the correct include file name was asm/k8.h and not asm/amd_nb.h, and second, amd_get_mmconfig_range() is needed and was merged by previous patch.

commit 24d25dbfa63c376323096660bfa9ad45a08870ce upstream. This factors out the AMD native MMCONFIG discovery so we can use it outside amd_bus.c. amd_bus.c reads AMD MSRs so it can remove the MMCONFIG area from the PCI resources. We may also need the MMCONFIG information to work around BIOS defects in the ACPI MCFG table.

I observed a dead-lock problem when running a PAE enabled Debian 2.6.32.46+ kernel with 6 VCPUs as a KVM on (2.6.32, 3.2, 3.3) kernel, which showed the following behaviour: 1 VCPU is stuck in pgd_alloc() =E2=86=92 pgd_prepopulate_pmb() =E2=86=92... =E2=86=92 flush_tlb_others_ipi() while (!cpumask_empty(to_cpumask(f->flush_cpumask))) cpu_relax(); (gdb) print f->flush_cpumask $5 = {1} while all other VCPUs are stuck in pgd_alloc() =E2=86=92 spin_lock_irqsave(pgd_lock) I tracked it down to the commit 2.6.39-rc1: 4981d01eada5354d81c8929d5b2836829ba3df7b 2.6.32.34: ba456fd7ec1bdc31a4ad4a6bd02802dcaa730a33 x86: Flush TLB if PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE mode which when reverted made the bug disappear. Comparing 3.2 to 2.6.32.34 showed that the 'pgd-deadlock'-patch went into 2.6.38, that is before the 'PAE correctness'-patch, so the problem was probably never observed in the main development branch. But for 2.6.32 the 'pgd-deadlock' patch is still missing, so the 'PAE corretness'-patch made the problem worse with 2.6.32. The Patch was also back-ported to the OpenSUSE Kernel <http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel-source/commit/?id=ac27c01aa880c65d17043ab87249c613ac4c3635>, Since the patch didn't apply cleanly on the current Debian kernel, I had to backport it for us and Debian. The patch is also available from our (German) Bugzilla <https://forge.univention.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26661> or from the Debian BTS at <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=669335>. I have no easy test case, but running multiple parallel builds inside the VM normally triggers the bug within seconds to minutes. With the patch applied the VM survived a night building packages without any problem.

commit e0adb9902fb338a9fe634c3c2a3e474075c733ba upstream. Newer version of binutils are more strict about specifying the correct options to enable certain classes of instructions. The sparc32 build is done for v7 in order to support sun4c systems which lack hardware integer multiply and divide instructions. So we have to pass -Av8 when building the assembler routines that use these instructions and get patched into the kernel when we find out that we have a v8 capable cpu.

commit 1d057720609ed052a6371fe1d53300e5e6328e94 upstream. Enable the compat keyctl wrapper on s390x so that 32-bit s390 userspace can call the keyctl() syscall. There's an s390x assembly wrapper that truncates all the register values to 32-bits and this then calls compat_sys_keyctl() - but the latter only exists if CONFIG_KEYS_COMPAT is enabled, and the s390 Kconfig doesn't enable it.
