lx-configdump <file> dumps the contents of the gzipped .config to a text
file when the config is included in the kernel with CONFIG_IKCONFIG. By
default, the file written is called config.txt, but it can be any user
supplied filename as well. If the kernel config is in a module
(configs.ko), then it can be loaded along with symbols for the module
loaded with 'lx-symbols' and then this command will still work.
Obviously if you have the whole vmlinux then this can also be achieved
with scripts/extract-ikconfig, but this gdb script can be useful to
confirm that the memory contents of the config in memory and the vmlinux
contents on disk match what is expected.

Patch series "gdb script for kconfig and timer list".
This is a handful of changes to the kernel's gdb scripts to do some more
debugging with kgdb. The first patch allows the vmlinux to be reloaded
from where it was specified on the command line so that this set of
scripts can be used from anywhere. The second patch adds a script to
dump the config.gz to a file on the host debugging machine. The third
patch adds some rb tree utilities and the last patch uses those rb tree
walking utilities to dump out the contents of /proc/timer_list from a
system under debug.
This patch (of 5):
If I run 'gdb <path/to/vmlinux>' and there's the vmlinux-gdb.py file
there I can properly see symbols and use the lx commands provided by the
GDB scripts. But once I run 'lx-symbols' at the command prompt, gdb
reloads the vmlinux symbols assuming that this script was run from the
directory that has vmlinux at the root. That isn't always true, but we
could just look and see what symbols were already loaded and use that
instead. Let's do that so this can work by being invoked anywhere.

When kernel panic happens, it will first print the panic call stack,
then the ending msg like:
[ 35.743249] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
[ 35.749975] ------------[ cut here ]------------
The above message are very useful for debugging.
But if system is configured to not reboot on panic, say the
"panic_timeout" parameter equals 0, it will likely print out many noisy
message like WARN() call stack for each and every CPU except the panic
one, messages like below:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 280 at kernel/sched/core.c:1198 set_task_cpu+0x183/0x190
Call Trace:
<IRQ>
try_to_wake_up
default_wake_function
autoremove_wake_function
__wake_up_common
__wake_up_common_lock
__wake_up
wake_up_klogd_work_func
irq_work_run_list
irq_work_tick
update_process_times
tick_sched_timer
__hrtimer_run_queues
hrtimer_interrupt
smp_apic_timer_interrupt
apic_timer_interrupt
For people working in console mode, the screen will first show the panic
call stack, but immediately overridden by these noisy extra messages,
which makes debugging much more difficult, as the original context gets
lost on screen.
Also these noisy messages will confuse some users, as I have seen many bug
reporters posted the noisy message into bugzilla, instead of the real
panic call stack and context.
Adding a flag "suppress_printk" which gets set in panic() to avoid those
noisy messages, without changing current kernel behavior that both panic
blinking and sysrq magic key can work as is, suggested by Petr Mladek.
To verify this, make sure kernel is not configured to reboot on panic and
in console
# echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
to see if console only prints out the panic call stack.

LLVM uses profiling data that's deliberately similar to GCC, but has a
very different way of exporting that data. LLVM calls llvm_gcov_init()
once per module, and provides a couple of callbacks that we can use to
ask for more data.
We care about the "writeout" callback, which in turn calls back into
compiler-rt/this module to dump all the gathered coverage data to disk:
llvm_gcda_start_file()
llvm_gcda_emit_function()
llvm_gcda_emit_arcs()
llvm_gcda_emit_function()
llvm_gcda_emit_arcs()
[... repeats for each function ...]
llvm_gcda_summary_info()
llvm_gcda_end_file()
This design is much more stateless and unstructured than gcc's, and is
intended to run at process exit. This forces us to keep some local
state about which module we're dealing with at the moment. On the other
hand, it also means we don't depend as much on how LLVM represents
profiling data internally.
See LLVM's lib/Transforms/Instrumentation/GCOVProfiling.cpp for more
details on how this works, particularly GCOVProfiler::emitProfileArcs(),
GCOVProfiler::insertCounterWriteout(), and GCOVProfiler::insertFlush().

Finding endpoints of an IPC channel is one of essential task to
understand how a user program works. Procfs and netlink socket provide
enough hints to find endpoints for IPC channels like pipes, unix
sockets, and pseudo terminals. However, there is no simple way to find
endpoints for an eventfd file from userland. An inode number doesn't
hint. Unlike pipe, all eventfd files share the same inode object.
To provide the way to find endpoints of an eventfd file, this patch adds
"eventfd-id" field to /proc/PID/fdinfo of eventfd as identifier.
Integers managed by an IDA are used as ids.
A tool like lsof can utilize the information to print endpoints.

Today, proc_do_large_bitmap() truncates a large write input buffer to
PAGE_SIZE - 1, which may result in misparsed numbers at the (truncated)
end of the buffer. Further, it fails to notify the caller that the
buffer was truncated, so it doesn't get called iteratively to finish the
entire input buffer.
Tell the caller if there's more work to do by adding the skipped amount
back to left/*lenp before returning.
To fix the misparsing, reset the position if we have completely consumed
a truncated buffer (or if just one char is left, which may be a "-" in a
range), and ask the caller to come back for more.

The kernel has only two users of proc_do_large_bitmap(), the kernel CPU
watchdog, and the ip_local_reserved_ports. Refer to watchdog_cpumask
and ip_local_reserved_ports in Documentation for further details on
these. When you input a large buffer into these, when it is larger than
PAGE_SIZE- 1, the input data gets misparsed, and the user get
incorrectly informed that the desired input value was set. This commit
implements a test which mimics and exploits that use case, it uses a
bitmap size, as in the watchdog case. The bitmap is used to test the
bitmap proc handler, proc_do_large_bitmap().
The next commit fixes this issue.

On old kernels older new test knobs implemented on the test_sysctl
module may not be available. This is expected, and the selftests test
scripts should be able to run without failures on older kernels.
Generalize a solution so that we test for each required test target file
for each test by requiring each test description to annotate their
respective test target file. If the target file does not exist, we skip
the test gracefully.

When verify_diff_w() is used we care about the result, not the verbose
output, and although we use -q, that still gives us a chatty message
about if the files differ or not. Since verify_diff_w() uses stdinput
the chatty message says whether or not "-" matches the target file, and
this just seems rather odd. Better to just ignore that messsage all
together, what we really care about i sthe results, the return value and
we check for that.

Patch series "sysctl: add pending proc_do_large_bitmap fix".
Eric sent a fix out for proc_do_large_bitmap() last month for when using
a large input buffer. After patch review a test case for the issue was
built and submitted. I noticed there were a few issues with the tests,
but instead of just asking Eric to address them I've taken care of them
and ammended the commit where necessary. There's a few issues he
reported which I also address and fix in this series.
Since we *do* expect users of these scripts to also use them on older
kernels, I've also addressed not breaking calling the script for them,
and gives us an easy way to easily extend our tests cases for future
kernels as well.
Before anyone considers these for stable as minor fixes, I'd recommend
we also address the discrepancy on the read side of things: modify the
test script to use diff against the target file instead of using the
temp file.
This patch (of 6):
We already call test_reqs(), no need to call it twice.

Currently when userspace gives us a values that overflow e.g. file-max
and other callers of __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() we simply ignore the
new value and leave the current value untouched.
This can be problematic as it gives the illusion that the limit has
indeed be bumped when in fact it failed. This commit makes sure to
return EINVAL when an overflow is detected. Please note that this is a

struct linux_binprm::buf is the first field and it is exactly 128 bytes
in size. It means that on x86_64 all accesses to other fields will go
though [r64 + disp32] addressing mode which is 3 bytes bloatier than
[r64 + disp8] addressing mode. Given that accesses to other fields
outnumber accesses to ->buf, move it down.
Space savings (x86_64 defconfig):
more on distro configs because LSMs actively dereference "bprm"
but do not care about first 128 bytes of the executable itself.

fsync() needs to make sure the data & meta-data of file are persistent
after the return of fsync(), even when a power-failure occurs later. In
the case of fat-fs, the FAT belongs to the meta-data of file, so we need
to issue a flush after the writeback of FAT instead before.
Also bail out early when any stage of fsync fails.

csum_partial() gives different results for little-endian and big-endian
hosts. This causes images created on little-endian hosts and mounted on
big endian hosts to see csum mismatches. This causes an endianness bug.
Sparse gives a warning as csum_partial returns a restricted integer type
__wsum_t and xattr_hash expects __u32. This warning acts as a reminder
for this bug and should not be suppressed.
This comment aims to convey these endianness issues.

A "strictexpire" mount option has been added to the autofs file system.
It is meant to be used in cases where a GUI continually accesses or an
application frquently scans an automount directory tree causing an
accumulation of otherwise unused mounts.

Patch series "init: Do not select DEBUG_KERNEL by default", v5.
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL has been designed to just enable Kconfig options.
Kernel code generatoin should not depend on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL.
Proposed alternative plan: let's add a new symbol, something like
DEBUG_MISC ("Miscellaneous debug code that should be under a more
specific debug option but isn't"), make it depend on DEBUG_KERNEL and be
"default DEBUG_KERNEL" but allow itself to be turned off, and then
mechanically change the small handful of "#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL" to
"#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_MISC".
This patch (of 5):
Introduce DEBUG_MISC ("Miscellaneous debug code that should be under a
more specific debug option but isn't"), make it depend on DEBUG_KERNEL
and be "default DEBUG_KERNEL" but allow itself to be turned off, and
then mechanically change the small handful of "#ifdef

Commmit eab09532d400 ("binfmt_elf: use ELF_ET_DYN_BASE only for PIE"),
made changes in the rare case when the ELF loader was directly invoked
(e.g to set a non-inheritable LD_LIBRARY_PATH, testing new versions of
the loader), by moving into the mmap region to avoid both ET_EXEC and
PIE binaries. This had the effect of also moving the brk region into
mmap, which could lead to the stack and brk being arbitrarily close to
each other. An unlucky process wouldn't get its requested stack size
and stack allocations could end up scribbling on the heap.
This is illustrated here. In the case of using the loader directly, brk
(so helpfully identified as "[heap]") is allocated with the _loader_ not
the binary. For example, with ASLR entirely disabled, you can see this
more clearly:
$ /bin/cat /proc/self/maps
555555554000-55555555c000 r-xp 00000000 ... /bin/cat

7ffffffde000-7ffffffff000 rw-p 00000000 ... [stack]
The solution is to move brk out of mmap and into ELF_ET_DYN_BASE since
nothing is there in the direct loader case (and ET_EXEC is still far
away at 0x400000). Anything that ran before should still work (i.e.
the ultimately-launched binary already had the brk very far from its
text, so this should be no different from a COMPAT_BRK standpoint). The
only risk I see here is that if someone started to suddenly depend on
the entire memory space lower than the mmap region being available when
launching binaries via a direct loader execs which seems highly
unlikely, I'd hope: this would mean a binary would _not_ work when
exec()ed normally.
(Note that this is only done under CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZATION
when randomization is turned on.)

Get "current_pt_regs" pointer right before usage.
Space savings on x86_64:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-180 (-180)
Function old new delta
load_elf_binary 5806 5626 -180 !!!
Looks like the compiler doesn't know that "current_pt_regs" is stable
pointer (because it doesn't know ->stack isn't) even though it knows
that "current" is stable pointer. So it saves it in the very beginning
and then tries to carry it through a lot of code.
Here is what happens here:
load_elf_binary()
...
mov rax,QWORD PTR gs:0x14c00
mov r13,QWORD PTR [rax+0x18] r13 = current->stack
call kmem_cache_alloc # first kmalloc
[980 bytes later!]
# let's spill that sucker because we need a register
# for "load_bias" calculations at
#
# if (interpreter) {
# load_bias = ELF_ET_DYN_BASE;
# if (current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE)
# load_bias += arch_mmap_rnd();
# elf_flags |= elf_fixed;
# }
mov QWORD PTR [rsp+0x68],r13
If this is not _the_ root cause it is still eeeeh.
After the patch things become much simpler:
mov rax, QWORD PTR gs:0x14c00 # current
mov rdx, QWORD PTR [rax+0x18] # current->stack
movq [rdx+0x3fb8], 0 # fill pt_regs
...
call finalize_exec

There are two places where mapping protections are calculated: one for
executable, another one for interpreter -- take them out.
ELF read and execute permissions are interchanged with Linux PROT_READ
and PROT_EXEC, microoptimizations are welcome!

The ror32 implementation (word >> shift) | (word << (32 - shift) has
undefined behaviour if shift is outside the [1, 31] range. Similarly
for the 64 bit variants. Most callers pass a compile-time constant
(naturally in that range), but there's an UBSAN report that these may
actually be called with a shift count of 0.
Instead of special-casing that, we can make them DTRT for all values of
shift while also avoiding UB. For some reason, this was already partly
done for rol32 (which was well-defined for [0, 31]). gcc 8 recognizes
these patterns as rotates, so for example
__u32 rol32(__u32 word, unsigned int shift)
{
return (word << (shift & 31)) | (word >> ((-shift) & 31));
}
compiles to
0000000000000020 <rol32>:
20: 89 f8 mov %edi,%eax
22: 89 f1 mov %esi,%ecx
24: d3 c0 rol %cl,%eax
26: c3 retq
Older compilers unfortunately do not do as well, but this only affects
the small minority of users that don't pass constants.
Due to integer promotions, ro[lr]8 were already well-defined for shifts
in [0, 8], and ro[lr]16 were mostly well-defined for shifts in [0, 16]
(only mostly - u16 gets promoted to _signed_ int, so if bit 15 is set,
word << 16 is undefined). For consistency, update those as well.
