git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain: - It was time to tidy up kernel/module.c and one way of starting with that effort was to split it up into files. At my request Aaron Tomlin spearheaded that effort with the goal to not introduce any functional at all during that endeavour. The penalty for the split is +1322 bytes total, +112 bytes in data, +1210 bytes in text while bss is unchanged. One of the benefits of this other than helping make the code easier to read and review is summoning more help on review for changes with livepatching so kernel/module/livepatch.c is now pegged as maintained by the live patching folks.

There are three reasons why an architecture might want this: a) On some architectures (like book3s/32) it is not possible to protect against execution on a page basis. The exec stuff can be mapped by different arch segment sizes (on book3s/32 that is 256M segments). By default the module area is in an Exec segment while vmalloc area is in a NoExec segment. Using vmalloc lets you muck with module data as NoExec on those architectures whereas before you could not. b) By pushing more module data to vmalloc you also increase the probability of module text to remain within a closer distance from kernel core text and this reduces trampolines, this has been reported on arm first and powerpc folks are following that lead. c) Free'ing module_alloc() (Exec by default) area leaves this exposed as Exec by default, some architectures have some security enhancements to set this as NoExec on free, and splitting module data with text let's future generic special allocators be added to the kernel without having developers try to grok the tribal knowledge per arch.

2022-05-24lockdown: also lock down previous kgdb useDaniel Thompson1-3/+59
KGDB and KDB allow read and write access to kernel memory, and thus should be restricted during lockdown. An attacker with access to a serial port (for example, via a hypervisor console, which some cloud vendors provide over the network) could trigger the debugger so it is important that the debugger respect the lockdown mode when/if it is triggered. Fix this by integrating lockdown into kdb's existing permissions mechanism. Unfortunately kgdb does not have any permissions mechanism (although it certainly could be added later) so, for now, kgdb is simply and brutally disabled by immediately exiting the gdb stub without taking any action. For lockdowns established early in the boot (e.g. the normal case) then this should be fine but on systems where kgdb has set breakpoints before the lockdown is enacted than "bad things" will happen.

2022-03-24kdb: Fix the putarea helper functionDaniel Thompson1-1/+1
Currently kdb_putarea_size() uses copy_from_kernel_nofault() to write *to* arbitrary kernel memory. This is obviously wrong and means the memory modify ('mm') command is a serious risk to debugger stability: if we poke to a bad address we'll double-fault and lose our debug session. Fix this the (very) obvious way. Note that there are two Fixes: tags because the API was renamed and this patch will only trivially backport as far as the rename (and this is probably enough). Nevertheless Christoph's rename did not introduce this problem so I wanted to record that!

2021-11-03kdb: Adopt scheduler's task classificationDaniel Thompson4-122/+53
Currently kdb contains some open-coded routines to generate a summary character for each task. This code currently issues warnings, is almost certainly broken and won't make sense to any kernel dev who has ever used /proc to examine task states. Fix both the warning and the potential for confusion by adopting the scheduler's task classification. Whilst doing this we also simplify the filtering by using mask strings directly (which means we don't have to guess all the characters the scheduler might give us). Unfortunately we can't quite match the scheduler classification completely. We add four extra states: - for idle loops and i, m and s for sleeping system daemons (which means kthreads in one of the I, M and S states). These extra states are used to manage the filters for tools to make the output of ps and bta less noisy. Note: The Fixes below is the last point the original dubious code was moved; it was not introduced by that patch. However it gives us the last point to which this patch can be easily backported. Happily that should be enough to cover the introduction of CONFIG_WERROR!

With these changes kdb_register_flags() becomes redundant and hence removed.

2021-07-27kdb: Get rid of custom debug heap allocatorSumit Garg3-307/+28
Currently the only user for debug heap is kdbnearsym() which can be modified to rather use statically allocated buffer for symbol name as per it's current usage. So do that and hence remove custom debug heap allocator. Note that this change puts a restriction on kdbnearsym() callers to carefully use shared namebuf such that a caller should consume the symbol returned immediately prior to another call to fetch a different symbol. Also, this change uses standard KSYM_NAME_LEN macro for namebuf allocation instead of local variable: knt1_size which should avoid any conflicts caused by changes to KSYM_NAME_LEN macro value. This change has been tested using kgdbtest on arm64 which doesn't show any regressions.

Currently kdb uses in_interrupt() to determine whether its library code has been called from the kgdb trap handler or from a saner calling context such as driver init. This approach is broken because in_interrupt() alone isn't able to determine kgdb trap handler entry from normal task context. This can happen during normal use of basic features such as breakpoints and can also be trivially reproduced using: echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger We can improve this by adding check for in_dbg_master() instead which explicitly determines if we are running in debugger context.

Currently using forward search doesn't handle multi-line strings correctly. The search routine replaces line breaks with \0 during the search and, for regular searches ("help | grep Common\n"), there is code after the line has been discarded or printed to replace the break character. However during a pager search ("help\n" followed by "/Common\n") when the string is matched we will immediately return to normal output and the code that should restore the \n becomes unreachable. Fix this by restoring the replaced character when we disable the search mode and update the comment accordingly.

2020-07-16treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usageKees Cook1-1/+1
Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1] (or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings (e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized, either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes. In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining needless uses with the following script: git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \ xargs perl -pi -e \ 's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g; s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;' drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid pathological white-space.

2020-06-26kdb: Switch to use safer dbg_io_ops over console APIsSumit Garg1-1/+3
In kgdb context, calling console handlers aren't safe due to locks used in those handlers which could in turn lead to a deadlock. Although, using oops_in_progress increases the chance to bypass locks in most console handlers but it might not be sufficient enough in case a console uses more locks (VT/TTY is good example). Currently when a driver provides both polling I/O and a console then kdb will output using the console. We can increase robustness by using the currently active polling I/O driver (which should be lockless) instead of the corresponding console. For several common cases (e.g. an embedded system with a single serial port that is used both for console output and debugger I/O) this will result in no console handler being used. In order to achieve this we need to reverse the order of preference to use dbg_io_ops (uses polling I/O mode) over console APIs. So we just store "struct console" that represents debugger I/O in dbg_io_ops and while emitting kdb messages, skip console that matches dbg_io_ops console in order to avoid duplicate messages. After this change, "is_console" param becomes redundant and hence removed.

2020-06-25kdb: Make kdb_printf() console handling more robustSumit Garg1-0/+11
While rounding up CPUs via NMIs, its possible that a rounded up CPU maybe holding a console port lock leading to kgdb master CPU stuck in a deadlock during invocation of console write operations. A similar deadlock could also be possible while using synchronous breakpoints. So in order to avoid such a deadlock, set oops_in_progress to encourage the console drivers to disregard their internal spin locks: in the current calling context the risk of deadlock is a bigger problem than risks due to re-entering the console driver. We operate directly on oops_in_progress rather than using bust_spinlocks() because the calls bust_spinlocks() makes on exit are not appropriate for this calling context.

2020-06-09kdb: don't play with console_loglevelDmitry Safonov1-7/+8
Print the stack trace with KERN_EMERG - it should be always visible. Playing with console_loglevel is a bad idea as there may be more messages printed than wanted. Also the stack trace might be not printed at all if printk() was deferred and console_loglevel was raised back before the trace got flushed. Unfortunately, after rebasing on commit 2277b492582d ("kdb: Fix stack crawling on 'running' CPUs that aren't the master"), kdb_show_stack() uses now kdb_dump_stack_on_cpu(), which for now won't be converted as it uses dump_stack() instead of show_stack(). Convert for now the branch that uses show_stack() and remove console_loglevel exercise from that case.

2020-06-02kdb: Remove the misfeature 'KDBFLAGS'Wei Li1-4/+4
Currently, 'KDBFLAGS' is an internal variable of kdb, it is combined by 'KDBDEBUG' and state flags. It will be shown only when 'KDBDEBUG' is set, and the user can define an environment variable named 'KDBFLAGS' too. These are puzzling indeed. After communication with Daniel, it seems that 'KDBFLAGS' is a misfeature. So let's replace 'KDBFLAGS' with 'KDBDEBUG' to just show the value we wrote into. After this modification, we can use `md4c1 kdb_flags` instead, to observe the state flags.

Currently the PROMPT variable could be abused to provoke the printf() machinery to read outside the current stack frame. Normally this doesn't matter becaues md is already a much better tool for reading from memory. However the md command can be disabled by not setting KDB_ENABLE_MEM_READ. Let's also prevent PROMPT from being modified in these circumstances. Whilst adding a comment to help future code reviewers we also remove the #ifdef where PROMPT in consumed.

2020-04-01kdb: Eliminate strncpy() warnings by replacing with strscpy()Daniel Thompson1-4/+4
Currently the code to manage the kdb history buffer uses strncpy() to copy strings to/and from the history and exhibits the classic "but nobody ever told me that strncpy() doesn't always terminate strings" bug. Modern gcc compilers recognise this bug and issue a warning. In reality these calls will only abridge the copied string if kdb_read() has *already* overflowed the command buffer. Thus the use of counted copies here is only used to reduce the secondary effects of a bug elsewhere in the code. Therefore transitioning these calls into strscpy() (without checking the return code) is appropriate.
