2018-03-25usb: core: Add USB_QUIRK_DELAY_CTRL_MSG to usbcore quirksKai-Heng Feng1-1/+3
There's a new quirk, USB_QUIRK_DELAY_CTRL_MSG. Add it to usbcore quirks for completeness. Signed-off-by: Kai-Heng Feng <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
2018-03-23HID: usbhid: extend the polling interval configuration to keyboardsFilip Alac1-0/+3
For mouse and joystick devices user can change the polling interval via usbhid.mousepoll and usbhid.jspoll. Implement the same thing for keyboards, so user can reduce(or increase) input latency this way. This has been tested with a Cooler Master Devastator with kbpoll=32, resulting in delay between events of 32 ms(values were taken from evtest).

2018-03-23ima: fail signature verification based on policyMimi Zohar1-1/+7
This patch addresses the fuse privileged mounted filesystems in environments which are unwilling to accept the risk of trusting the signature verification and want to always fail safe, but are for example using a pre-built kernel. This patch defines a new builtin policy named "fail_securely", which can be specified on the boot command line as an argument to "ima_policy=".

2018-03-20usb: core: Add "quirks" parameter for usbcoreKai-Heng Feng1-0/+56
Trying quirks in usbcore needs to rebuild the driver or the entire kernel if it's builtin. It can save a lot of time if usbcore has similar ability like "usbhid.quirks=" and "usb-storage.quirks=". Rename the original quirk detection function to "static" as we introduce this new "dynamic" function. Now users can use "usbcore.quirks=" as short term workaround before the next kernel release. Also, the quirk parameter can XOR the builtin quirks for debugging purpose. This is inspired by usbhid and usb-storage.

2018-03-16KVM: x86: Add module parameter for supporting VMware backdoorLiran Alon1-0/+3
Support access to VMware backdoor requires KVM to intercept #GP exceptions from guest which introduce slight performance hit. Therefore, control this support by module parameter. Note that module parameter is exported as it should be consumed by kvm_intel & kvm_amd to determine if they should intercept #GP or not. This commit doesn't change semantics. It is done as a preparation for future commits.

2018-03-16arch: remove blackfin portArnd Bergmann2-2/+1
The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up. Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant, and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when doing cross-architecture changes.

2018-03-14irqchip/gic-v3: Allow LPIs to be disabled from the command lineMarc Zyngier1-0/+8
For most GICv3 implementations, enabling LPIs is a one way switch. Once they're on, there is no turning back, which completely kills kexec (pending tables will always be live, and we can't tell the secondary kernel where they are). This is really annoying if you plan to use Linux as a bootloader, as it pretty much guarantees that the secondary kernel won't be able to use MSIs, and may even see some memory corruption. Bad. A workaround for this unfortunate situation is to allow the kernel not to enable LPIs, even if the feature is present in the HW. This would allow Linux-as-a-bootloader to leave LPIs alone, and let the secondary kernel to do whatever it wants with them. Let's introduce a boolean "irqchip.gicv3_nolpi" command line option that serves that purpose. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <[email protected]>

2018-03-09docs: clarify security-bugs disclosure policyDave Hansen1-11/+13
I think we need to soften the language a bit. It might scare folks off, especially the: We prefer to fully disclose the bug as soon as possible. which is not really the case. Linus says: It's not full disclosure, it's not coordinated disclosure, and it's not "no disclosure". It's more like just "timely open fixes". I changed a bit of the wording in here, but mostly to remove the word "disclosure" since it seems to mean very specific things to people that we do not mean here.

2018-03-06audit: do not panic on invalid boot parameterGreg Edwards1-7/+7
If you pass in an invalid audit boot parameter value, e.g. "audit=off", the kernel panics very early in boot before the regular console is initialized. Unless you have earlyprintk enabled, there is no indication of what the problem is on the console. Convert the panic() calls to pr_err(), and leave auditing enabled if an invalid parameter value was passed in. Modify the parameter to also accept "on" or "off" as valid values, and update the documentation accordingly.

2018-02-26x86/boot/e820: Implement a range manipulation operatorJan H. Schönherr1-0/+9
Add a more versatile memmap= operator, which -- in addition to all the things that were possible before -- allows you to: - redeclare existing ranges -- before, you were limited to adding ranges; - drop any range -- like a mem= for any location; - use any e820 memory type -- not just some predefined ones. The syntax is: memmap=<size>%<offset>-<oldtype>+<newtype> Size and offset work as usual. The "-<oldtype>" and "+<newtype>" are optional and their existence determine the behavior: The command works on the specified range of memory limited to type <oldtype> (if specified). This memory is then configured to show up as <newtype>. If <newtype> is not specified, the memory is removed from the e820 map. Signed-off-by: Jan H.

2018-02-07ACPI: SPCR: Make SPCR available to x86Prarit Bhargava1-3/+6
SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup an early console. General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86), updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(), and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be more descriptive. On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is not 2 so the table version check must be a warning. On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console and console are enabled. On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by by default. Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing the early console and console separately.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Add a console_msg_format command line option: The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log level>[timestamp] text" format. This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs at hands. - Reduce the risk of softlockup: Pass the console owner in a busy loop. This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep. On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the waiter. The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations. Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example, when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too much to flush. There is increasing number of people having problems with printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising direction. - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk(): This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output. This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective. - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier: It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function descriptors and show the real function address. It is done transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now. Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in a special elf section and could be easily detected. - Remove printk_symbol() API: It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API. - Remove redundant memsets: Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg command line option. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk: (27 commits) printk: drop redundant devkmsg_log_str memsets printk: Never set console_may_schedule in console_trylock() printk: Hide console waiter logic into helpers printk: Add console owner and waiter logic to load balance console writes kallsyms: remove print_symbol() function checkpatch: add pF/pf deprecation warning symbol lookup: introduce dereference_symbol_descriptor() parisc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference powerpc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference ia64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference sections: split dereference_function_descriptor() openrisc: Fix conflicting types for _exext and _stext lib: do not use print_symbol() irq debug: do not use print_symbol() sysfs: do not use print_symbol() drivers: do not use print_symbol() x86: do not use print_symbol() unicore32: do not use print_symbol() sh: do not use print_symbol() mn10300: do not use print_symbol() ...

2018-01-31x86/paravirt: Remove 'noreplace-paravirt' cmdline optionJosh Poimboeuf1-2/+0
The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the original pv indirect calls in place. That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines. As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel vulnerable to Spectre v2. It was probably a debug option from the early paravirt days. So just remove it.

Add a spectre_v2= option to select the mitigation used for the indirect branch speculation vulnerability. Currently, the only option available is retpoline, in its various forms. This will be expanded to cover the new IBRS/IBPB microcode features. The RETPOLINE_AMD feature relies on a serializing LFENCE for speculation control. For AMD hardware, only set RETPOLINE_AMD if LFENCE is a serializing instruction, which is indicated by the LFENCE_RDTSC feature.

2018-01-11x86/PCI: Add "pci=big_root_window" option for AMD 64-bit windows=?UTF-8?q?Christian=20K=C3=B6nig?=1-0/+6
Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window" is specified. This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory that would conflict with the window. The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to AMD CPUs. The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling it.

2018-01-04printk: add console_msg_format command line optionSergey Senozhatsky1-0/+14
0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the kernel logs from: a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note) and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages. b) serial consoles This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages don't contain facility and log level. This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option, to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles. For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog. The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the "syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and `cat /proc/kmsg' output formats: - facility and log level - time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME) - message <%u>[time stamp] text\n NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually "dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format, thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw". Per Kevin Hilman: : Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup, : but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to : have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels : in default boot log. : : This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced : search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic : Search, Logstash, Kibana). : : The other important reason for having this on the command line is that : for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches), : it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run : "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.) So we really want this on the primary : boot (serial) console. Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]: `#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern :(err |crit |alert |emerg )' instead of doing text pattern matching `#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} | grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern | grep -a -v -F -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/kmsg-blacklist` [1] https://github.com/fengguang/lkp-tests/blob/master/lib/dmesg.rb Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] To: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]> Cc: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Cc: Fengguang Wu <[email protected]> Cc: Kevin Hilman <[email protected]> Cc: Mark Brown <[email protected]> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Cc: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Cc: LKML <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Fengguang Wu <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Kevin Hilman <[email protected]> Tested-by: Kevin Hilman <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <[email protected]>
