Mount fails if file system image has empty files because of sanity check
while reading superblock. For empty files disk offset to end of file
(i_eoffset) is cpu_to_le32(-1). Sanity check comparison, which compares
disk offset with file system size isn't valid for this value and hence
is ignored with this patch.
Steps to reproduce:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=bfs-image count=204800
$ mkfs.bfs bfs-image
$ mkdir bfs-mount-point
$ sudo mount -t bfs -o loop bfs-image bfs-mount-point/
$ cd bfs-mount-point/
$ sudo touch a
$ cd ..
$ sudo umount bfs-mount-point/
$ sudo mount -t bfs -o loop bfs-image bfs-mount-point/
mount: /dev/loop0: can't read superblock
$ dmesg

The add_device_randomness() function would ignore incoming bytes if the
crng wasn't ready. This additionally makes sure to make an early enough
call to add_latent_entropy() to influence the initial stack canary,
which is especially important on non-x86 systems where it stays the same
through the life of the boot.

Prevent use of uninitialized memory (originating from the stack frame of
do_sysctl()) by verifying that the name array is filled with sufficient
input data before comparing its specific entries with integer constants.
Through timing measurement or analyzing the kernel debug logs, a
user-mode program could potentially infer the results of comparisons
against the uninitialized memory, and acquire some (very limited)
information about the state of the kernel stack. The change also
eliminates possible future warnings by tools such as KMSAN and other
code checkers / instrumentations.

Add the following tests to ensure we do not regress:
o Test using a buffer full of space (PAGE_SIZE-1) followed by a
single digit works
o Test using a buffer full of spaces (PAGE_SIZE or over) will fail
As tests increase instead of unloading the module and reloading it we
can just do a shell reset_vals() with a reset to values we know are set
at init on the driver.

This adds a generic script to let us more easily add more tests cases.
Since we really have only two types of tests cases just fold them into
the one file. Each test unit is now identified into its separate
function:
# ./sysctl.sh -l
Test ID list:
TEST_ID x NUM_TEST
TEST_ID: Test ID
NUM_TESTS: Number of recommended times to run the test
0001 x 1 - tests proc_dointvec_minmax()
0002 x 1 - tests proc_dostring()
For now we start off with what we had before, and run only each test
once. We can now watch a test case until it fails:
./sysctl.sh -w 0002
We can also run a test case x number of times, say we want to run a test
case 100 times:
./sysctl.sh -c 0001 100
To run a test case only once, for example:
./sysctl.sh -s 0002
The default settings are specified at the top of sysctl.sh.

The existing tools/testing/selftests/sysctl/ tests include two test
cases, but these use existing production kernel sysctl interfaces. We
want to expand test coverage but we can't just be looking for random
safe production values to poke at, that's just insane!
Instead just dedicate a test driver for debugging purposes and port the
existing scripts to use it. This will make it easier for further tests
to be added.
Subsequent patches will extend our test coverage for sysctl.
The stress test driver uses a new license (GPL on Linux, copyleft-next
outside of Linux). Linus was fine with this [0] and later due to Ted's
and Alans's request ironed out an "or" language clause to use [1] which
is already present upstream.

To keep parity with regular int interfaces provide the an unsigned int
proc_douintvec_minmax() which allows you to specify a range of allowed
valid numbers.
Adding proc_douintvec_minmax_sysadmin() is easy but we can wait for an
actual user for that.

Commit e7d316a02f68 ("sysctl: handle error writing UINT_MAX to u32
fields") added proc_douintvec() to start help adding support for
unsigned int, this however was only half the work needed. Two fixes
have come in since then for the following issues:
o Printing the values shows a negative value, this happens since
do_proc_dointvec() and this uses proc_put_long()
This was fixed by commit 5380e5644afbba9 ("sysctl: don't print negative
flag for proc_douintvec").
o We can easily wrap around the int values: UINT_MAX is 4294967295, if
we echo in 4294967295 + 1 we end up with 0, using 4294967295 + 2 we
end up with 1.
o We echo negative values in and they are accepted
This was fixed by commit 425fffd886ba ("sysctl: report EINVAL if value
is larger than UINT_MAX for proc_douintvec").
It still also failed to be added to sysctl_check_table()... instead of
adding it with the current implementation just provide a proper and
simplified unsigned int support without any array unsigned int support
with no negative support at all.
Historically sysctl proc helpers have supported arrays, due to the
complexity this adds though we've taken a step back to evaluate array
users to determine if its worth upkeeping for unsigned int. An
evaluation using Coccinelle has been done to perform a grammatical
search to ask ourselves:
o How many sysctl proc_dointvec() (int) users exist which likely
should be moved over to proc_douintvec() (unsigned int) ?
Answer: about 8
- Of these how many are array users ?
Answer: Probably only 1
o How many sysctl array users exist ?
Answer: about 12
This last question gives us an idea just how popular arrays: they are not.
Array support should probably just be kept for strings.
The identified uint ports are:
drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c - max_backlog
drivers/infiniband/core/iwcm.c - default_backlog
net/core/sysctl_net_core.c - rps_sock_flow_sysctl()
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timestamp.c - nf_conntrack_timestamp -- bool
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_acct.c nf_conntrack_acct -- bool
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ecache.c - nf_conntrack_events -- bool
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper.c - nf_conntrack_helper -- bool
net/phonet/sysctl.c proc_local_port_range()
The only possible array users is proc_local_port_range() but it does not
seem worth it to add array support just for this given the range support
works just as well. Unsigned int support should be desirable more for
when you *need* more than INT_MAX or using int min/max support then does
not suffice for your ranges.
If you forget and by mistake happen to register an unsigned int proc
entry with an array, the driver will fail and you will get something as
follows:

Patch series "sysctl: few fixes", v5.
I've been working on making kmod more deterministic, and as I did that I
couldn't help but notice a few issues with sysctl. My end goal was just
to fix unsigned int support, which back then was completely broken.
Liping Zhang has sent up small atomic fixes, however it still missed yet
one more fix and Alexey Dobriyan had also suggested to just drop array
support given its complexity.
I have inspected array support using Coccinelle and indeed its not that
popular, so if in fact we can avoid it for new interfaces, I agree its
best.
I did develop a sysctl stress driver but will hold that off for another
series.
This patch (of 5):
Commit 7c60c48f58a7 ("sysctl: Improve the sysctl sanity checks")
improved sanity checks considerbly, however the enhancements on
sysctl_check_table() meant adding a functional change so that only the
last table entry's sanity error is propagated. It also changed the way
errors were propagated so that each new check reset the err value, this
means only last sanity check computed is used for an error. This has
been in the kernel since v3.4 days.
Fix this by carrying on errors from previous checks and iterations as we
traverse the table and ensuring we keep any error from previous checks.
We keep iterating on the table even if an error is found so we can
complain for all errors found in one shot. This works as -EINVAL is
always returned on error anyway, and the check for error is any non-zero
value.

Currently vmcoreinfo data is updated at boot time subsys_initcall(), it
has the risk of being modified by some wrong code during system is
running.
As a result, vmcore dumped may contain the wrong vmcoreinfo. Later on,
when using "crash", "makedumpfile", etc utility to parse this vmcore, we
probably will get "Segmentation fault" or other unexpected errors.
E.g. 1) wrong code overwrites vmcoreinfo_data; 2) further crashes the
system; 3) trigger kdump, then we obviously will fail to recognize the
crash context correctly due to the corrupted vmcoreinfo.
Now except for vmcoreinfo, all the crash data is well
protected(including the cpu note which is fully updated in the crash
path, thus its correctness is guaranteed). Given that vmcoreinfo data
is a large chunk prepared for kdump, we better protect it as well.
To solve this, we relocate and copy vmcoreinfo_data to the crash memory
when kdump is loading via kexec syscalls. Because the whole crash
memory will be protected by existing arch_kexec_protect_crashkres()
mechanism, we naturally protect vmcoreinfo_data from write(even read)
access under kernel direct mapping after kdump is loaded.
Since kdump is usually loaded at the very early stage after boot, we can
trust the correctness of the vmcoreinfo data copied.
On the other hand, we still need to operate the vmcoreinfo safe copy
when crash happens to generate vmcoreinfo_note again, we rely on vmap()
to map out a new kernel virtual address and update to use this new one
instead in the following crash_save_vmcoreinfo().
BTW, we do not touch vmcoreinfo_note, because it will be fully updated
using the protected vmcoreinfo_data after crash which is surely correct
just like the cpu crash note.

vmcoreinfo_max_size stands for the vmcoreinfo_data, the correct one we
should use is vmcoreinfo_note whose total size is VMCOREINFO_NOTE_SIZE.
Like explained in commit 77019967f06b ("kdump: fix exported size of
vmcoreinfo note"), it should not affect the actual function, but we
better fix it, also this change should be safe and backward compatible.
After this, we can get rid of variable vmcoreinfo_max_size, let's use
the corresponding macros directly, fewer variables means more safety for
vmcoreinfo operation.

As Eric said,
"what we need to do is move the variable vmcoreinfo_note out of the
kernel's .bss section. And modify the code to regenerate and keep this
information in something like the control page.
Definitely something like this needs a page all to itself, and ideally
far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not
watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in
the kernel's .bss section."
This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one
advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because
vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.

If the first parameter of container_of() is a pointer to a
non-const-qualified array type (and the third parameter names a
non-const-qualified array member), the local variable __mptr will be
defined with a const-qualified array type. In ISO C, these types are
incompatible. They work as expected in GNU C, but some versions will
issue warnings. For example, GCC 4.9 produces the warning
"initialization from incompatible pointer type".
Here is an example of where the problem occurs:
-------------------------------------------------------
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
struct st {
int a;
char b[16];
};
static int __init example_init(void) {
struct st t = { .a = 101, .b = "hello" };
char (*p)[16] = &t.b;
struct st *x = container_of(p, struct st, b);
printk(KERN_DEBUG "%p %p\n", (void *)&t, (void *)x);
return 0;
}
static void __exit example_exit(void) {
}
module_init(example_init);
module_exit(example_exit);
-------------------------------------------------------
Building the module with gcc-4.9 results in these warnings (where '{m}'
is the module source and '{k}' is the kernel source):
-------------------------------------------------------
In file included from {m}/example.c:1:0:
{m}/example.c: In function `example_init':
{k}/include/linux/kernel.h:854:48: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
const typeof( ((type *)0)->member ) *__mptr = (ptr); \
^
{m}/example.c:14:17: note: in expansion of macro `container_of'
struct st *x = container_of(p, struct st, b);
^
{k}/include/linux/kernel.h:854:48: warning: (near initialization for `x')
const typeof( ((type *)0)->member ) *__mptr = (ptr); \
^
{m}/example.c:14:17: note: in expansion of macro `container_of'
struct st *x = container_of(p, struct st, b);
^
-------------------------------------------------------
Replace the type checking performed by the macro to avoid these
warnings. Make sure `*(ptr)` either has type compatible with the
member, or has type compatible with `void`, ignoring qualifiers. Raise
compiler errors if this is not true. This is stronger than the previous
behaviour, which only resulted in compiler warnings for a type mismatch.

If we have more than 32 unicast MAC addresses assigned to an interface
we will read beyond the end of the address table in the driver when
adding filters. The next 256 entries store multicast addresses, so we
will end up attempting to insert duplicate filters, which is mostly
harmless. If we add more than 288 unicast addresses we will then read
past the multicast address table, which is likely to be more exciting.

Factoring ctime into the nfsv4 change attribute gives us better
properties than just i_version alone.
Eventually we'll likely also expose this (as opposed to raw i_version)
to userspace, at which point we'll want to move it to a common helper,
called from either userspace or individual filesystems. For now, nfsd
is the only user.

Clean up:
The generic RDMA R/W API conversion of svc_rdma_recvfrom replaced
the Register, Read, and Invalidate completion handlers. Remove the

When an RPC-over-RDMA request is received, the Receive buffer
contains a Transport Header possibly followed by an RPC message.
Even though rq_arg.head[0] (as passed to NFSD) does not contain the
Transport Header header, currently rq_arg.len includes the size of
the Transport Header.
That violates the intent of the xdr_buf API contract. .buflen should
include everything, but .len should be exactly the length of the RPC
message in the buffer.
The rq_arg fields are summed together at the end of
svc_rdma_recvfrom to obtain the correct return value. rq_arg.len
really ought to contain the correct number of bytes already, but it
currently doesn't due to the above misbehavior.
Let's instead ensure that .buflen includes the length of the
transport header, and that .len is always equal to head.iov_len +
.page_len + tail.iov_len .

The current svcrdma recvfrom code path has a lot of detail about
registration mode and the type of port (iWARP, IB, etc).
Instead, use the RDMA core's generic R/W API. This shares code with
other RDMA-enabled ULPs that manages the gory details of buffer
registration and the posting of RDMA Read Work Requests.
Since the Read list marshaling code is being replaced, I took the
opportunity to replace C structure-based XDR encoding code with more
portable code that uses pointer arithmetic.

svc_rdma_rw.c already contains helpers for the sendto path.
Introduce helpers for the recvfrom path.
The plan is to replace the local NFSD bespoke code that constructs
and posts RDMA Read Work Requests with calls to the rdma_rw API.
This shares code with other RDMA-enabled ULPs that manages the gory
details of buffer registration and posting Work Requests.
This new code also puts all RDMA_NOMSG-specific logic in one place.
Lastly, the use of rqstp->rq_arg.pages is deprecated in favor of
using rqstp->rq_pages directly, for clarity.

svcrdma needs 259 pages allocated to receive 1MB NFSv4.0 WRITE requests:
- 1 page for the transport header and head iovec
- 256 pages for the data payload
- 1 page for the trailing GETATTR request (since NFSD XDR decoding
does not look for a tail iovec, the GETATTR is stuck at the end
of the rqstp->rq_arg.pages list)
- 1 page for building the reply xdr_buf
But RPCSVC_MAXPAGES is already 259 (on x86_64). The problem is that
svc_alloc_arg never allocates that many pages. To address this:
1. The final element of rq_pages always points to NULL. To
accommodate up to 259 pages in rq_pages, add an extra element
to rq_pages for the array termination sentinel.
2. Adjust the calculation of "pages" to match how RPCSVC_MAXPAGES
is calculated, so it can go up to 259. Bruce noted that the
calculation assumes sv_max_mesg is a multiple of PAGE_SIZE,
which might not always be true. I didn't change this assumption.
3. Change the loop boundaries to allow 259 pages to be allocated.
Additional clean-up: WARN_ON_ONCE adds an extra conditional branch,
which is basically never taken. And there's no need to dump the
stack here because svc_alloc_arg has only one caller.
Keeping that NULL "array termination sentinel"; there doesn't appear to
be any code that depends on it, only code in nfsd_splice_actor() which
needs the 259th element to be initialized to *something*. So it's
possible we could just keep the array at 259 elements and drop that
final NULL, but we're being conservative for now.

The code suffered from very high flush rates, with the new

- Support for amd_iommu=off when booting with kexec.
