Noticed by Al Viro <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> - SMP on x86_64 is fundamentally broken due to UML's reuse of the host arch's percpu stuff. This is OK on x86, but the x86_64 pda stuff just won't work for UML. Signed-off-by:

Normally, activate_mm() is called from exec(), and thus it used to be a no-op because we use a completely new "MM context" on the host (for instance, a new process), and so we didn't need to flush any "TLB entries" (which for us are the set of memory mappings for the host process from the virtual "RAM" file). Kernel threads, instead, are usually handled in a different way. So, when for AIO we call use_mm(), things used to break and so Benjamin implemented activate_mm(). However, that is only needed for AIO, and could slow down exec() inside UML, so be smart: detect being called for AIO (via PF_BORROWED_MM) and do the full flush only in that situation. Comment also the caller so that people won't go breaking UML without noticing. I also rely on the caller's locks for testing current->flags. Signed-off-by:

If a SIGWINCH comes in, while winch_thread() isn't waiting in wait(), winch_thread could miss signals. It isn't very probable, that anyone will see this causing trouble, as it would need a very special timing, that a missed SIGWINCH results in a wrong window size. So, this is a minor problem. But why not fix, as it can be done so easy? Signed-off-by:

Apparently, GDB gets confused when we do an execvp() on ourselves. Since it's simply done to allocate further space for command line arguments (which we'll use to allow gathering the startup command line for guest processes through the host), allow the user to disable that to get a debuggable UML binary.

As a follow-up to "UML Support - Ptrace: adds the host SYSEMU support, for UML and general usage" (i.e. uml-support-* in current mm). Avoid unconditionally jumping to work_pending and code copying, just reuse the already existing resume_userspace path. One interesting note, from Charles P. Wright, suggested that the API is improvable with no downsides for UML (except that it will have to support yet another host API, since dropping support for the current API, for UML, is not reasonable from users' point of view).

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> This is simply an adjustment for "Ptrace - i386: fix Syscall Audit interaction with singlestep" to work on top of SYSEMU patches, too. On this patch, I have some doubts: I wonder why we need to alter that way ptrace_disable(). I left the patch this way because it has been extensively tested, but I don't understand the reason. The current PTRACE_DETACH handling simply clears child->ptrace; actually this is not enough because entry.S just looks at the thread_flags; actually, do_syscall_trace checks current->ptrace but I don't think depending on that is good, at least for performance, so I think the clearing is done elsewhere. For instance, on PTRACE_CONT it's done, but doing PTRACE_DETACH without PTRACE_CONT is possible (and happens when gdb crashes and one kills it manually). Signed-off-by: -

This patch implements the new ptrace option PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP, which can be used by UML to singlestep a process: it will receive SINGLESTEP interceptions for normal instructions and syscalls, but syscall execution will be skipped just like with PTRACE_SYSEMU. Signed-off-by:

With this patch, we change the way we handle switching from PTRACE_SYSEMU to PTRACE_{SINGLESTEP,SYSCALL}, to free TIF_SYSCALL_EMU from double use as a preparation for PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP extension, without changing the behavior of the host kernel. Signed-off-by: -

Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>, Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade_spam@yahoo.it>, Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@fujitsu-siemens.com> Adds a new ptrace(2) mode, called PTRACE_SYSEMU, resembling PTRACE_SYSCALL except that the kernel does not execute the requested syscall; this is useful to improve performance for virtual environments, like UML, which want to run the syscall on their own. In fact, using PTRACE_SYSCALL means stopping child execution twice, on entry and on exit, and each time you also have two context switches; with SYSEMU you avoid the 2nd stop and so save two context switches per syscall. Also, some architectures don't have support in the host for changing the syscall number via ptrace(), which is currently needed to skip syscall execution (UML turns any syscall into getpid() to avoid it being executed on the host). Fixing that is hard, while SYSEMU is easier to implement. * This version of the patch includes some suggestions of Jeff Dike to avoid adding any instructions to the syscall fast path, plus some other little changes, by myself, to make it work even when the syscall is executed with SYSENTER (but I'm unsure about them). It has been widely tested for quite a lot of time. * Various fixed were included to handle the various switches between various states, i.e. when for instance a syscall entry is traced with one of PT_SYSCALL / _SYSEMU / _SINGLESTEP and another one is used on exit. Basically, this is done by remembering which one of them was used even after the call to ptrace_notify(). * We're combining TIF_SYSCALL_EMU with TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE or TIF_SINGLESTEP to make do_syscall_trace() notice that the current syscall was started with SYSEMU on entry, so that no notification ought to be done in the exit path; this is a bit of a hack, so this problem is solved in another way in next patches. * Also, the effects of the patch: "Ptrace - i386: fix Syscall Audit interaction with singlestep" are cancelled; they are restored back in the last patch of this series. Detailed descriptions of the patches doing this kind of processing follow (but I've already summed everything up). * Fix behaviour when changing interception kind #1. In do_syscall_trace(), we check the status of the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag only after doing the debugger notification; but the debugger might have changed the status of this flag because he continued execution with PTRACE_SYSCALL, so this is wrong. This patch fixes it by saving the flag status before calling ptrace_notify(). * Fix behaviour when changing interception kind #2: avoid intercepting syscall on return when using SYSCALL again. A guest process switching from using PTRACE_SYSEMU to PTRACE_SYSCALL crashes. The problem is in arch/i386/kernel/entry.S. The current SYSEMU patch inhibits the syscall-handler to be called, but does not prevent do_syscall_trace() to be called after this for syscall completion interception. The appended patch fixes this. It reuses the flag TIF_SYSCALL_EMU to remember "we come from PTRACE_SYSEMU and now are in PTRACE_SYSCALL", since the flag is unused in the depicted situation. * Fix behaviour when changing interception kind #3: avoid intercepting syscall on return when using SINGLESTEP. When testing 2.6.9 and the skas3.v6 patch, with my latest patch and had problems with singlestepping on UML in SKAS with SYSEMU. It looped receiving SIGTRAPs without moving forward. EIP of the traced process was the same for all SIGTRAPs. What's missing is to handle switching from PTRACE_SYSCALL_EMU to PTRACE_SINGLESTEP in a way very similar to what is done for the change from PTRACE_SYSCALL_EMU to PTRACE_SYSCALL_TRACE. I.e., after calling ptrace(PTRACE_SYSEMU), on the return path, the debugger is notified and then wake ups the process; the syscall is executed (or skipped, when do_syscall_trace() returns 0, i.e. when using PTRACE_SYSEMU), and do_syscall_trace() is called again. Since we are on the return path of a SYSEMU'd syscall, if the wake up is performed through ptrace(PTRACE_SYSCALL), we must still avoid notifying the parent of the syscall exit. Now, this behaviour is extended even to resuming with PTRACE_SINGLESTEP. Signed-off-by: -

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Avoid giving two traps for singlestep instead of one, when syscall auditing is enabled. In fact no singlestep trap is sent on syscall entry, only on syscall exit, as can be seen in entry.S: # Note that in this mask _TIF_SINGLESTEP is not tested !!! <<<<<<<<<<<<<< testb $(_TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE|_TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT|_TIF_SECCOMP),TI_flags(%ebp) jnz syscall_trace_entry ... syscall_trace_entry: ... call do_syscall_trace But auditing a SINGLESTEP'ed process causes do_syscall_trace to be called, so the tracer will get one more trap on the syscall entry path, which it shouldn't.

Andreas Steinmetz authored
The patch protects from leaking sensitive data after resume from suspend. During suspend a temporary key is created and this key is used to encrypt the data written to disk. When, during resume, the data was read back into memory the temporary key is destroyed which simply means that all data written to disk during suspend are then inaccessible so they can't be stolen lateron. Think of the following: you suspend while an application is running that keeps sensitive data in memory. The application itself prevents the data from being swapped out. Suspend, however, must write these data to swap to be able to resume lateron. Without suspend encryption your sensitive data are then stored in plaintext on disk. This means that after resume your sensitive data are accessible to all applications having direct access to the swap device which was used for suspend. If you don't need swap after resume these data can remain on disk virtually forever. Thus it can happen that your system gets broken in weeks later and sensitive data which you thought were encrypted and protected are retrieved and stolen from the swap device. Signed-off-by:
