signal/usb: Replace kill_pid_info_as_cred with kill_pid_usb_asyncio

2019-07-26T07:11:01Z

commit 70f1b0d34bdf03065fe869e93cc17cad1ea20c4a upstream. The usb support for asyncio encoded one of it's values in the wrong field. It should have used si_value but instead used si_addr which is not present in the _rt union member of struct siginfo. The practical result of this is that on a 64bit big endian kernel when delivering a signal to a 32bit process the si_addr field is set to NULL, instead of the expected pointer value. This issue can not be fixed in copy_siginfo_to_user32 as the usb usage of the the _sigfault (aka si_addr) member of the siginfo union when SI_ASYNCIO is set is incompatible with the POSIX and glibc usage of the _rt member of the siginfo union. Therefore replace kill_pid_info_as_cred with kill_pid_usb_asyncio a dedicated function for this one specific case. There are no other users of kill_pid_info_as_cred so this specialization should have no impact on the amount of code in the kernel. Have kill_pid_usb_asyncio take instead of a siginfo_t which is difficult and error prone, 3 arguments, a signal number, an errno value, and an address enconded as a sigval_t. The encoding of the address as a sigval_t allows the code that reads the userspace request for a signal to handle this compat issue along with all of the other compat issues. Add BUILD_BUG_ONs in kernel/signal.c to ensure that we can now place the pointer value at the in si_pid (instead of si_addr). That is the code now verifies that si_pid and si_addr always occur at the same location. Further the code veries that for native structures a value placed in si_pid and spilling into si_uid will appear in userspace in si_addr (on a byte by byte copy of siginfo or a field by field copy of siginfo). The code also verifies that for a 64bit kernel and a 32bit userspace the 32bit pointer will fit in si_pid. I have used the usbsig.c program below written by Alan Stern and slightly tweaked by me to run on a big endian machine to verify the issue exists (on sparc64) and to confirm the patch below fixes the issue. /* usbsig.c -- test USB async signal delivery */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include static struct usbdevfs_urb urb; static struct usbdevfs_disconnectsignal ds; static volatile sig_atomic_t done = 0; void urb_handler(int sig, siginfo_t *info , void *ucontext) { printf("Got signal %d, signo %d errno %d code %d addr: %p urb: %p\n", sig, info->si_signo, info->si_errno, info->si_code, info->si_addr, &urb); printf("%s\n", (info->si_addr == &urb) ?

ptrace: take into account saved_sigmask in PTRACE{GET,SET}SIGMASK

2019-03-29T17:01:37Z

There are a few system calls (pselect, ppoll, etc) which replace a task sigmask while they are running in a kernel-space When a task calls one of these syscalls, the kernel saves a current sigmask in task->saved_sigmask and sets a syscall sigmask. On syscall-exit-stop, ptrace traps a task before restoring the saved_sigmask, so PTRACE_GETSIGMASK returns the syscall sigmask and PTRACE_SETSIGMASK does nothing, because its sigmask is replaced by saved_sigmask, when the task returns to user-space. This patch fixes this problem. PTRACE_GETSIGMASK returns saved_sigmask if it's set. PTRACE_SETSIGMASK drops the TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag.

sched/core: Convert signal_struct.sigcnt to refcount_t

2019-02-04T07:53:53Z

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable signal_struct.sigcnt is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. ** Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. The full comparison can be seen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon in state to be merged to the documentation tree. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage.

signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfo

2018-10-03T14:47:43Z

Linus recently observed that if we did not worry about the padding member in struct siginfo it is only about 48 bytes, and 48 bytes is much nicer than 128 bytes for allocating on the stack and copying around in the kernel. The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in the kernel that embed struct siginfo. So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo. Keeping the traditional name for the userspace definition. While the version that is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to 128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo. The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have the same field offsets. To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same size as siginfo. The reduction in size comes in a following change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

signal: Remove SEND_SIG_FORCED

2018-09-11T19:19:48Z

There are no more users of SEND_SIG_FORCED so it may be safely removed. Remove the definition of SEND_SIG_FORCED, it's use in is_si_special, it's use in TP_STORE_SIGINFO, and it's use in __send_signal as without any users the uses of SEND_SIG_FORCED are now unncessary. This makes the code simpler, easier to understand and use. Users of signal sending functions now no longer need to ask themselves do I need to use SEND_SIG_FORCED.

signal: make force_sigsegv() void

2018-08-22T17:52:50Z

Patch series "signal: refactor some functions", v3. This series refactors a bunch of functions in signal.c to simplify parts of the code. The greatest single change is declaring the static do_sigpending() helper as void which makes it possible to remove a bunch of unnecessary checks in the syscalls later on. This patch (of 17): force_sigsegv() returned 0 unconditionally so it doesn't make sense to have it return at all. In addition, there are no callers that check force_sigsegv()'s return value.
