syscalls: Remove file path comments from headers Source file locations for syscall definitions can change over a period of time. File paths in comments get stale and are hard to maintain long term. Also, their usefulness is questionable since it would be easier to locate a syscall definition using the SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro. Remove all source file path comments from the syscall headers. Also, equalize the uneven line spacing (some of which is introduced due to the deletions). Signed-off-by: Sohil Mehta <sohil.mehta@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

signal: Deliver SIGTRAP on perf event asynchronously if blocked With SIGTRAP on perf events, we have encountered termination of processes due to user space attempting to block delivery of SIGTRAP. Consider this case: <set up SIGTRAP on a perf event> ... sigset_t s; sigemptyset(&s); sigaddset(&s, SIGTRAP | <and others>); sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, &s, ...); ... <perf event triggers> When the perf event triggers, while SIGTRAP is blocked, force_sig_perf() will force the signal, but revert back to the default handler, thus terminating the task. This makes sense for error conditions, but not so much for explicitly requested monitoring. However, the expectation is still that signals generated by perf events are synchronous, which will no longer be the case if the signal is blocked and delivered later. To give user space the ability to clearly distinguish synchronous from asynchronous signals, introduce siginfo_t::si_perf_flags and TRAP_PERF_FLAG_ASYNC (opted for flags in case more binary information is required in future). The resolution to the problem is then to (a) no longer force the signal (avoiding the terminations), but (b) tell user space via si_perf_flags if the signal was synchronous or not, so that such signals can be handled differently (e.g. let user space decide to ignore or consider the data imprecise). The alternative of making the kernel ignore SIGTRAP on perf events if the signal is blocked may work for some usecases, but likely causes issues in others that then have to revert back to interception of sigprocmask() (which we want to avoid). [ A concrete example: when using breakpoint perf events to track data-flow, in a region of code where signals are blocked, data-flow can no longer be tracked accurately. When a relevant asynchronous signal is received after unblocking the signal, the data-flow tracking logic needs to know its state is imprecise. ] Fixes: 97ba62b27867 ("perf: Add support for SIGTRAP on perf events") Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Signed-off-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Tested-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220404111204.935357-1-elver@google.com

mm: simplify compat numa syscalls The compat implementations for mbind, get_mempolicy, set_mempolicy and migrate_pages are just there to handle the subtly different layout of bitmaps on 32-bit hosts. The compat implementation however lacks some of the checks that are present in the native one, in particular for checking that the extra bits are all zero when user space has a larger mask size than the kernel. Worse, those extra bits do not get cleared when copying in or out of the kernel, which can lead to incorrect data as well. Unify the implementation to handle the compat bitmap layout directly in the get_nodes() and copy_nodes_to_user() helpers. Splitting out the get_bitmap() helper from get_nodes() also helps readability of the native case. On x86, two additional problems are addressed by this: compat tasks can pass a bitmap at the end of a mapping, causing a fault when reading across the page boundary for a 64-bit word. x32 tasks might also run into problems with get_mempolicy corrupting data when an odd number of 32-bit words gets passed. On parisc the migrate_pages() system call apparently had the wrong calling convention, as big-endian architectures expect the words inside of a bitmap to be swapped. This is not a problem though since parisc has no NUMA support.

To get it over with once and for all, make all of this file uncondititonal now so it can be accessed everywhere. There are only a few types left that are in asm/compat.h but not yet in the asm-generic version, so add those in the process. This requires providing a few more types in asm-generic/compat.h that were not already there. The only tricky one is compat_sigset_t, which needs a little help on 32-bit architectures and for x86.

x86: signal: don't do sas_ss_reset() until we are certain that sigframe won't be abandoned Currently we handle SS_AUTODISARM as soon as we have stored the altstack settings into sigframe - that's the point when we have set the things up for eventual sigreturn to restore the old settings. And if we manage to set the sigframe up (we are not done with that yet), everything's fine. However, in case of failure we end up with sigframe-to-be abandoned and SIGSEGV force-delivered. And in that case we end up with inconsistent rules - late failures have altstack reset, early ones do not. It's trivial to get consistent behaviour - just handle SS_AUTODISARM once we have set the sigframe up and are committed to entering the handler, i.e. in signal_delivered().

siginfo: Move si_trapno inside the union inside _si_fault It turns out that linux uses si_trapno very sparingly, and as such it can be considered extra information for a very narrow selection of signals, rather than information that is present with every fault reported in siginfo. As such move si_trapno inside the union inside of _si_fault. This results in no change in placement, and makes it eaiser to extend _si_fault in the future as this reduces the number of special cases. In particular with si_trapno included in the union it is no longer a concern that the union must be pointer aligned on most architectures because the union follows immediately after si_addr which is a pointer. This change results in a difference in siginfo field placement on sparc and alpha for the fields si_addr_lsb, si_lower, si_upper, si_pkey, and si_perf. These architectures do not implement the signals that would use si_addr_lsb, si_lower, si_upper, si_pkey, and si_perf. Further these architecture have not yet implemented the userspace that would use si_perf. The point of this change is in fact to correct these placement issues before sparc or alpha grow userspace that cares. This change was discussed[1] and the agreement is that this change is currently safe.

signal, perf: Fix siginfo_t by avoiding u64 on 32-bit architectures The alignment of a structure is that of its largest member. On architectures like 32-bit Arm (but not e.g. 32-bit x86) 64-bit integers will require 64-bit alignment and not its natural word size. This means that there is no portable way to add 64-bit integers to siginfo_t on 32-bit architectures without breaking the ABI, because siginfo_t does not yet (and therefore likely never will) contain 64-bit fields on 32-bit architectures. Adding a 64-bit integer could change the alignment of the union after the 3 initial int si_signo, si_errno, si_code, thus introducing 4 bytes of padding shifting the entire union, which would break the ABI. One alternative would be to use the __packed attribute, however, it is non-standard C. Given siginfo_t has definitions outside the Linux kernel in various standard libraries that can be compiled with any number of different compilers (not just those we rely on), using non-standard attributes on siginfo_t should be avoided to ensure portability. In the case of the si_perf field, word size is sufficient since there is no exact requirement on size, given the data it contains is user-defined via perf_event_attr::sig_data. On 32-bit architectures, any excess bits of perf_event_attr::sig_data will therefore be truncated when copying into si_perf. Since si_perf is intended to disambiguate events (e.g. encoding relevant information if there are more events of the same type), 32 bits should provide enough entropy to do so on 32-bit architectures. For 64-bit architectures, no change is intended.

iov_iter: refactor rw_copy_check_uvector and import_iovec Split rw_copy_check_uvector into two new helpers with more sensible calling conventions: - iovec_from_user copies a iovec from userspace either into the provided stack buffer if it fits, or allocates a new buffer for it. Returns the actually used iovec. It also verifies that iov_len does fit a signed type, and handles compat iovecs if the compat flag is set. - __import_iovec consolidates the native and compat versions of import_iovec. It calls iovec_from_user, then validates each iovec actually points to user addresses, and ensures the total length doesn't overflow. This has two major implications: - the access_process_vm case loses the total lenght checking, which wasn't required anyway, given that each call receives two iovecs for the local and remote side of the operation, and it verifies the total length on the local side already. - instead of a single loop there now are two loops over the iovecs. Given that the iovecs are cache hot this doesn't make a major difference Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any longer.

y2038: syscalls: rename y2038 compat syscalls A lot of system calls that pass a time_t somewhere have an implementation using a COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() on 64-bit architectures, and have been reworked so that this implementation can now be used on 32-bit architectures as well. The missing step is to redefine them using the regular SYSCALL_DEFINEx() to get them out of the compat namespace and make it possible to build them on 32-bit architectures. Any system call that ends in 'time' gets a '32' suffix on its name for that version, while the others get a '_time32' suffix, to distinguish them from the normal version, which takes a 64-bit time argument in the future. In this step, only 64-bit architectures are changed, doing this rename first lets us avoid touching the 32-bit architectures twice.

y2038: signal: Add compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait_time64 Now that 32-bit architectures have two variants of sys_rt_sigtimedwaid() for 32-bit and 64-bit time_t, we also need to have a second compat system call entry point on the corresponding 64-bit architectures. The traditional system call keeps getting handled by compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait(), and this adds a new compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait_time64() that differs only in the timeout argument type. The naming remains a bit asymmetric for the moment. Ideally we would want to have compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait_time32() for the old version and compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait() for the new one to mirror the names of the native entry points, but renaming the existing system call tables causes unnecessary churn. I would suggest renaming all such system calls together at a later point. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

y2038: socket: Add compat_sys_recvmmsg_time64 recvmmsg() takes two arguments to pointers of structures that differ between 32-bit and 64-bit architectures: mmsghdr and timespec. For y2038 compatbility, we are changing the native system call from timespec to __kernel_timespec with a 64-bit time_t (in another patch), and use the existing compat system call on both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures for compatibility with traditional 32-bit user space. As we now have two variants of recvmmsg() for 32-bit tasks that are both different from the variant that we use on 64-bit tasks, this means we also require two compat system calls! The solution I picked is to flip things around: The existing compat_sys_recvmmsg() call gets moved from net/compat.c into net/socket.c and now handles the case for old user space on all architectures that have set CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME. A new compat_sys_recvmmsg_time64() call gets added in the old place for 64-bit architectures only, this one handles the case of a compat mmsghdr structure combined with __kernel_timespec. In the indirect sys_socketcall(), we now need to call either do_sys_recvmmsg() or __compat_sys_recvmmsg(), depending on what kind of architecture we are on. For compat_sys_socketcall(), no such change is needed, we always call __compat_sys_recvmmsg(). I decided to not add a new SYS_RECVMMSG_TIME64 socketcall: Any libc implementation for 64-bit time_t will need significant changes including an updated asm/unistd.h, and it seems better to consistently use the separate syscalls that configuration, leaving the socketcall only for backward compatibility with 32-bit time_t based libc. The naming is asymmetric for the moment, so both existing syscalls entry points keep their names, while the new ones are recvmmsg_time32 and compat_recvmmsg_time64 respectively. I expect that we will rename the compat syscalls later as we start using generated syscall tables everywhere and add these entry points. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

This is useful for versions of syscalls that pass in the sigmask and expect the current->sigmask to be changed during, and restored after, the execution of the syscall. With the advent of new y2038 syscalls in the subsequent patches, we add two more new versions of the syscalls (for pselect, ppoll, and io_pgetevents) in addition to the existing native and compat versions. Adding such an api reduces the logic that would need to be replicated otherwise. Note that the calls to sigprocmask() ignored the return value from the api as the function only returns an error on an invalid first argument that is hardcoded at these call sites. The updated logic uses set_current_blocked() instead. Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

x86/compat: Adjust in_compat_syscall() to generic code under !COMPAT The result of in_compat_syscall() can be pictured as: x86 platform: --------------------------------------------------- | Arch\syscall | 64-bit | ia32 | x32 | |-------------------------------------------------| | x86_64 | false | true | true | |-------------------------------------------------| | i686 | | <true> | | --------------------------------------------------- Other platforms: ------------------------------------------- | Arch\syscall | 64-bit | compat | |-----------------------------------------| | 64-bit | false | true | |-----------------------------------------| | 32-bit(?) | | <false> | ------------------------------------------- As seen, the result of in_compat_syscall() on generic 32-bit platform differs from i686. There is no reason for in_compat_syscall() == true on native i686. It also easy to misread code if the result on native 32-bit platform differs between arches. Because of that non arch-specific code has many places with: if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_COMPAT) && in_compat_syscall()) in different variations. It looks-like the only non-x86 code which uses in_compat_syscall() not under CONFIG_COMPAT guard is in amd/amdkfd. But according to the commit a18069c132cb ("amdkfd: Disable support for 32-bit user processes"), it actually should be disabled on native i686. Rename in_compat_syscall() to in_32bit_syscall() for x86-specific code and make in_compat_syscall() false under !CONFIG_COMPAT. A follow on patch will clean up generic users which were forced to check IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_COMPAT) with in_compat_syscall().

signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfo Linus recently observed that if we did not worry about the padding member in struct siginfo it is only about 48 bytes, and 48 bytes is much nicer than 128 bytes for allocating on the stack and copying around in the kernel. The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in the kernel that embed struct siginfo. So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo. Keeping the traditional name for the userspace definition. While the version that is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to 128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo. The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have the same field offsets. To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same size as siginfo. The reduction in size comes in a following change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

signal: Introduce COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ for use in compat_sys_sigaltstack The sigaltstack(2) system call fails with -ENOMEM if the new alternative signal stack is found to be smaller than SIGMINSTKSZ. On architectures such as arm64, where the native value for SIGMINSTKSZ is larger than the compat value, this can result in an unexpected error being reported to a compat task. See, for example: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=904385 This patch fixes the problem by extending do_sigaltstack to take the minimum signal stack size as an additional parameter, allowing the native and compat system call entry code to pass in their respective values. COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ is just defined as SIGMINSTKSZ if it has not been defined by the architecture. Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Cc: "Eric W.

y2038: utimes: Rework #ifdef guards for compat syscalls After changing over to 64-bit time_t syscalls, many architectures will want compat_sys_utimensat() but not respective handlers for utime(), utimes() and futimesat(). This adds a new __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 to complement __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME. For now, all 64-bit architectures that support CONFIG_COMPAT set it, but future 64-bit architectures will not (tile would not have needed it either, but got removed). As older 32-bit architectures get converted to using CONFIG_64BIT_TIME, they will have to use __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 instead of __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME. Architectures using the generic syscall ABI don't need either of them as they never had a utime syscall. Since the compat_utimbuf structure is now required outside of CONFIG_COMPAT, I'm moving it into compat_time.h. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> --- changed from last version: - renamed __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_UTIME to __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32

asm-generic: Move common compat types to asm-generic/compat.h While converting compat system call handlers to work on 32-bit architectures, I found a number of types used in those handlers that are identical between all architectures. Let's move all the identical ones into asm-generic/compat.h to avoid having to add even more identical definitions of those types. For unknown reasons, mips defines __compat_gid32_t, __compat_uid32_t and compat_caddr_t as signed, while all others have them unsigned. This seems to be a mistake, but I'm leaving it alone here. The other types all differ by size or alignment on at least on architecture. compat_aio_context_t is currently defined in linux/compat.h but also needed for compat_sys_io_getevents(), so let's move it into the same place. While we still have not decided whether the 32-bit time handling will always use the compat syscalls, or in which form, I think this is a useful cleanup that we can merge regardless.

y2038: globally rename compat_time to old_time32 Christoph Hellwig suggested a slightly different path for handling backwards compatibility with the 32-bit time_t based system calls: Rather than simply reusing the compat_sys_* entry points on 32-bit architectures unchanged, we get rid of those entry points and the compat_time types by renaming them to something that makes more sense on 32-bit architectures (which don't have a compat mode otherwise), and then share the entry points under the new name with the 64-bit architectures that use them for implementing the compatibility. The following types and interfaces are renamed here, and moved from linux/compat_time.h to linux/time32.h: old new --- --- compat_time_t old_time32_t struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32 struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32 struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32 ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32() get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32() put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32() compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32() compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32() As we already have aliases in place, this patch addresses only the instances that are relevant to the system call interface in particular, not those that occur in device drivers and other modules. Those will get handled separately, while providing the 64-bit version of the respective interfaces. I'm not renaming the timex, rusage and itimerval structures, as we are still debating what the new interface will look like, and whether we will need a replacement at all. This also doesn't change the names of the syscall entry points, which can be done more easily when we actually switch over the 32-bit architectures to use them, at that point we need to change COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx to SYSCALL_DEFINEx with a new name, e.g. with a _time32 suffix.

kernel: add kcompat_sys_{f,}statfs64() Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the compat_sys_{f,}statfs64() sycalls, as are necessary for parameter mangling in arm64's compat handling. Following the example of ksys_* functions, kcompat_sys_* functions are intended to be a drop-in replacement for their compat_sys_* counterparts, with the same calling convention. This is necessary to enable conversion of arm64's syscall handling to use pt_regs wrappers.

aio: implement io_pgetevents This is the io_getevents equivalent of ppoll/pselect and allows to properly mix signals and aio completions (especially with IOCB_CMD_POLL) and atomically executes the following sequence: sigset_t origmask; pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &sigmask, &origmask); ret = io_getevents(ctx, min_nr, nr, events, timeout); pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &origmask, NULL); Note that unlike many other signal related calls we do not pass a sigmask size, as that would get us to 7 arguments, which aren't easily supported by the syscall infrastructure. It seems a lot less painful to just add a new syscall variant in the unlikely case we're going to increase the sigset size.

This adds the asm/compat.h for all remaining architectures to simplify the dependencies.

syscalls/core: Prepare CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y for compat syscalls It may be useful for an architecture to override the definitions of the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE0() and __COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros in <linux/compat.h>, in particular to use a different calling convention for syscalls. This patch provides a mechanism to do so, based on the previously introduced CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER. If it is enabled, <asm/sycall_wrapper.h> is included in <linux/compat.h> and may be used to define the macros mentioned above. Moreover, as the syscall calling convention may be different if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is set, the compat syscall function prototypes in <linux/compat.h> are #ifndef'd out in that case. As some of the syscalls and/or compat syscalls may not be present, the COND_SYSCALL() and COND_SYSCALL_COMPAT() macros in kernel/sys_ni.c as well as the SYS_NI() and COMPAT_SYS_NI() macros in kernel/time/posix-stubs.c can be re-defined in <asm/syscall_wrapper.h> iff CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is enabled.

signal: Correct the offset of si_pkey and si_lower in struct siginfo on m68k The change moving addr_lsb into the _sigfault union failed to take into account that _sigfault._addr_bnd._lower being a pointer forced the entire union to have pointer alignment. The fix for _sigfault._addr_bnd._lower having pointer alignment failed to take into account that m68k has a pointer alignment less than the size of a pointer. So simply making the padding members pointers changed the location of later members in the structure. Fix this by directly computing the needed size of the padding members, and making the padding members char arrays of the needed size. AKA if __alignof__(void *) is 1 sizeof(short) otherwise __alignof__(void *). Which should be exactly the same rules the compiler whould have used when computing the padding. I have tested this change by adding BUILD_BUG_ONs to m68k to verify the offset of every member of struct siginfo, and with those testing that the offsets of the fields in struct siginfo is the same before I changed the generic _sigfault member and after the correction to the _sigfault member. I have also verified that the x86 with it's own BUILD_BUG_ONs to verify the offsets of the siginfo members also compiles cleanly.

bpf: whitelist all syscalls for error injection Error injection is a useful mechanism to fail arbitrary kernel functions. However, it is often hard to guarantee an error propagates appropriately to user space programs. By injecting into syscalls, we can return arbitrary values to user space directly; this increases flexibility and robustness in testing, allowing us to test user space error paths effectively. The following script, for example, fails calls to sys_open() from a given pid: from bcc import BPF from sys import argv pid = argv[1] prog = r""" int kprobe__SyS_open(struct pt_regs *ctx, const char *pathname, int flags) { u32 pid = bpf_get_current_pid_tgid(); if (pid == %s) bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM); return 0; } """ % pid b = BPF(text=prog) while 1: b.perf_buffer_poll() This patch whitelists all syscalls defined with SYSCALL_DEFINE and COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE for error injection.

However, this is not true in the case of compat signals, whose sigset is copied by put_compat_sigset and receives size as an argument. At most call sites, put_compat_sigset is copying a sigset from the current task_struct. This triggers a warning when CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is active. However, by marking this function as static inline, the warning can be avoided because in all of these cases the size is constant at compile time, which is allowed. The only site where this is not the case is handling the rt_sigpending syscall, but there the copy is being made from a stack local variable so does not trigger the warning. Move put_compat_sigset to compat.h, and mark it static inline. This fixes the WARN on MIPS.

signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_from_user32 The function copy_siginfo_from_user32 is used for two things, in ptrace since the dawn of siginfo for arbirarily modifying a signal that user space sees, and in sigqueueinfo to send a signal with arbirary siginfo data. Create a single copy of copy_siginfo_from_user32 that all architectures share, and teach it to handle all of the cases in the siginfo union. In the generic version of copy_siginfo_from_user32 ensure that all of the fields in siginfo are initialized so that the siginfo structure can be safely copied to userspace if necessary. When copying the embedded sigval union copy the si_int member. That ensures the 32bit values passes through the kernel unchanged. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

Remove compat_sys_getdents64() Unlike normal compat syscall variants, it is needed only for biarch architectures that have different alignement requirements for u64 in 32bit and 64bit ABI *and* have __put_user() that won't handle a store of 64bit value at 32bit-aligned address. We used to have one such (ia64), but its biarch support has been gone since 2010 (after being broken in 2008, which went unnoticed since nobody had been using it). It had escaped removal at the same time only because back in 2004 a patch that switched several syscalls on amd64 from private wrappers to generic compat ones had switched to use of compat_sys_getdents64(), which hadn't needed (or used) a compat wrapper on amd64. Let's bury it - it's at least 7 years overdue. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

KEYS: add SP800-56A KDF support for DH SP800-56A defines the use of DH with key derivation function based on a counter. The input to the KDF is defined as (DH shared secret || other information). The value for the "other information" is to be provided by the caller. The KDF is implemented using the hash support from the kernel crypto API. The implementation uses the symmetric hash support as the input to the hash operation is usually very small. The caller is allowed to specify the hash name that he wants to use to derive the key material allowing the use of all supported hashes provided with the kernel crypto API. As the KDF implements the proper truncation of the DH shared secret to the requested size, this patch fills the caller buffer up to its size. The patch is tested with a new test added to the keyutils user space code which uses a CAVS test vector testing the compliance with SP800-56A.

include, lib: add __printf attributes to several function prototypes Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues at compile time (even though -Wformat-security is currently disabled in Makefile). For example it can detect when formatting a pointer as a number, like the issue fixed in commit a3fa71c40f18 ("wl18xx: show rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments do not match the format string, c.f. for example commit 5ce1aca81435 ("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string"). To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/. These functions were mostly found by using gcc's -Wsuggest-attribute=format flag.

syscalls: implement execveat() system call This patchset adds execveat(2) for x86, and is derived from Meredydd Luff's patch from Sept 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/528). The primary aim of adding an execveat syscall is to allow an implementation of fexecve(3) that does not rely on the /proc filesystem, at least for executables (rather than scripts). The current glibc version of fexecve(3) is implemented via /proc, which causes problems in sandboxed or otherwise restricted environments. Given the desire for a /proc-free fexecve() implementation, HPA suggested (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/556) that an execveat(2) syscall would be an appropriate generalization. Also, having a new syscall means that it can take a flags argument without back-compatibility concerns. The current implementation just defines the AT_EMPTY_PATH and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flags, but other flags could be added in future -- for example, flags for new namespaces (as suggested at https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/474). Related history: - https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/123 is an example of someone realizing that fexecve() is likely to fail in a chroot environment. - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514043 covered documenting the /proc requirement of fexecve(3) in its manpage, to "prevent other people from wasting their time". - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241609 described a problem where a process that did setuid() could not fexecve() because it no longer had access to /proc/self/fd; this has since been fixed. This patch (of 4): Add a new execveat(2) system call. execveat() is to execve() as openat() is to open(): it takes a file descriptor that refers to a directory, and resolves the filename relative to that. In addition, if the filename is empty and AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified, execveat() executes the file to which the file descriptor refers. This replicates the functionality of fexecve(), which is a system call in other UNIXen, but in Linux glibc it depends on opening "/proc/self/fd/<fd>" (and so relies on /proc being mounted). The filename fed to the executed program as argv[0] (or the name of the script fed to a script interpreter) will be of the form "/dev/fd/<fd>" (for an empty filename) or "/dev/fd/<fd>/<filename>", effectively reflecting how the executable was found. This does however mean that execution of a script in a /proc-less environment won't work; also, script execution via an O_CLOEXEC file descriptor fails (as the file will not be accessible after exec).

In order to allow the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE macro generate code that performs proper zero and sign extension convert all 64 bit parameters their corresponding 32 bit counterparts. compat_sys_io_getevents() is a bit different: the non-compat version has signed parameters for the "min_nr" and "nr" parameters while the compat version has unsigned parameters. So change this as well. For all practical purposes this shouldn't make any difference (doesn't fix a real bug). Also introduce a generic compat_aio_context_t type which can be used everywhere. The access_ok() check within compat_sys_io_getevents() got also removed since the non-compat sys_io_getevents() should be able to handle everything anyway.

compat: let architectures define __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_GETDENTS64 For architecture dependent compat syscalls in common code an architecture must define something like __ARCH_WANT_<WHATEVER> if it wants to use the code. This however is not true for compat_sys_getdents64 for which architectures must define __ARCH_OMIT_COMPAT_SYS_GETDENTS64 if they do not want the code. This leads to the situation where all architectures, except mips, get the compat code but only x86_64, arm64 and the generic syscall architectures actually use it. So invert the logic, so that architectures actively must do something to get the compat code. This way a couple of architectures get rid of otherwise dead code.

compat: Get rid of (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) We have two APIs for compatiblity timespec/val, with confusingly similar names. compat_(get|put)_time(val|spec) *do* handle the case where COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is set, whereas (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) do not. This is an accident waiting to happen. Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c. A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in an allocation on the user stack. Unfortunately it is open-coded in several places. Since this allocation isn't actually needed if COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format) encapsulate that whole pattern into the function compat_convert_timespec(). An equivalent function should be written for struct timeval if it is needed in the future. Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said (no conversion actually was being done.) Moving the conversion into compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to sys_settimeofday() itself. v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval(). v2: Drop bogus "const" in the destination argument for compat_convert_time*().

It turned out that with commit 72ec35163f9f ("switch compat readv/writev variants to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") we lost the zero extension of a couple of syscall parameters because the some parameter types haven't been converted from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t.

Introduce [compat_]save_altstack_ex() to unbreak x86 SMAP For performance reasons, when SMAP is in use, SMAP is left open for an entire put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch(); block, however, calling __put_user() in the middle of that block will close SMAP as the STAC..CLAC constructs intentionally do not nest. Furthermore, using __put_user() rather than put_user_ex() here is bad for performance. Thus, introduce new [compat_]save_altstack_ex() helpers that replace __[compat_]save_altstack() for x86, being currently the only architecture which supports put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch().

Fix breakage in MIPS siginfo handling MIPS's siginfo handling has been broken since this commit: commit 574c4866e33d648520a8bd5bf6f573ea6e554e88 Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Date: Sun Nov 25 22:24:19 2012 -0500 consolidate kernel-side struct sigaction declarations for 64-bit BE MIPS CPUs. The UAPI variant looks like this: struct sigaction { unsigned int sa_flags; __sighandler_t sa_handler; sigset_t sa_mask; }; but the core kernel's variant looks like this: struct sigaction { #ifndef __ARCH_HAS_ODD_SIGACTION __sighandler_t sa_handler; unsigned long sa_flags; #else unsigned long sa_flags; __sighandler_t sa_handler; #endif #ifdef __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER __sigrestore_t sa_restorer; #endif sigset_t sa_mask; }; The problem is that sa_flags has been changed from an unsigned int to an unsigned long. Fix this by making sa_flags unsigned int if __ARCH_HAS_ODD_SIGACTION is defined. Whilst we're at it, rename __ARCH_HAS_ODD_SIGACTION to __ARCH_HAS_IRIX_SIGACTION.

The sparc architecture has wrappers for the sign extensions while powerpc relies on the compiler to do the this. The patch adds wrappers for powerpc to handle the u32->int type conversion. compat_sys_sendfile64() can be replaced by a sys_sendfile() call since compat_loff_t has the same size as off_t on a 64-bit system.

ipc: compat: use signed size_t types for msgsnd and msgrcv The msgsnd and msgrcv system calls use size_t to represent the size of the message being transferred. POSIX states that values of msgsz greater than SSIZE_MAX cause the result to be implementation-defined. On Linux, this equates to returning -EINVAL if (long) msgsz < 0. For compat tasks where !CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC and compat_size_t is smaller than size_t, negative size values passed from userspace will be interpreted as positive values by do_msg{rcv,snd} and will fail to exit early with -EINVAL. This patch changes the compat prototypes for msg{rcv,snd} so that the message size is represented as a compat_ssize_t, which we cast to the native ssize_t type for the core IPC code.

ipc: allow compat IPC version field parsing if !ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC Commit 48b25c43e6ee ("ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC syscalls") added a new ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option for architectures to select if their compat target requires the old IPC syscall interface. For architectures (such as AArch64) that do not require the internal calling conventions provided by this option, but have a compat target where the C library passes the IPC_64 flag explicitly, compat_ipc_parse_version no longer strips out the flag before calling the native system call implementation, resulting in unknown SHM/IPC commands and -EINVAL being returned to userspace. This patch separates the selection of the internal calling conventions for the IPC syscalls from the version parsing, allowing architectures to select __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION if they want to use version parsing whilst retaining the newer syscall calling conventions.

Rather than having an additional check_access parameter to these functions, the first paramater type is overloaded to allow the caller to specify CHECK_IOVEC_ONLY which means check that the contents of the iovec are valid, but do not check the memory that they point to. This is used by process_vm_readv/writev where we need to validate that a iovec passed to the syscall is valid but do not want to check the memory that it points to at this point because it refers to an address space in another process.

[PATCH v3] ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC syscalls When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls. However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC syscalls do not do this. semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth argument, instead of the fourth argument itself. msgsnd(), msgrcv() and shmat() expect arguments in different order. This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc, s390, and mips). No actual semantics are changed for those architectures, and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c. Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific compat layer. In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64 mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect. The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were not being properly handled.

Cross Memory Attach The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a double copy of the message via shared memory. The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory directly from the source process into its own address space via a system call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current process's address space into a destination process's address space. - Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with using it: - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or written to would need to be contiguous. - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call, but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping (reason appears to have been lost) - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view, especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands of processes that all need to do this with each other - Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to consider adding in the future (see below) - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily) As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the copying. There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source and destination and store it in the destination. Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up when the mm changes. There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that: http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2 There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here: http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for 64-bit kernels.

compat: fixes to allow working with tile arch The existing <asm-generic/unistd.h> mechanism doesn't really provide enough to create the 64-bit "compat" ABI properly in a generic way, since the compat ABI is a mix of things were you can re-use the 64-bit versions of syscalls and things where you need a compat wrapper. To provide this in the most direct way possible, I added two new macros to go along with the existing __SYSCALL and __SC_3264 macros: __SC_COMP and SC_COMP_3264. These macros take an additional argument, typically a "compat_sys_xxx" function, which is passed to __SYSCALL if you define __SYSCALL_COMPAT when including the header, resulting in a pointer to the compat function being placed in the generated syscall table. The change also adds some missing definitions to <linux/compat.h> so that it actually has declarations for all the compat syscalls, since the "[nr] = ##call" approach requires proper C declarations for all the functions included in the syscall table. Finally, compat.c defines compat_sys_sigpending() and compat_sys_sigprocmask() even if the underlying architecture doesn't request it, which tries to pull in undefined compat_old_sigset_t defines. We need to guard those compat syscall definitions with appropriate __ARCH_WANT_SYS_xxx ifdefs. Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok() compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could introduce problems on some architectures. This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length. The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the implementation of the new global function. This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.

Make non-compat preadv/pwritev use native register size Instead of always splitting the file offset into 32-bit 'high' and 'low' parts, just split them into the largest natural word-size - which in C terms is 'unsigned long'. This allows 64-bit architectures to avoid the unnecessary 32-bit shifting and masking for native format (while the compat interfaces will obviously always have to do it). This also changes the order of 'high' and 'low' to be "low first". Why? Because when we have it like this, the 64-bit system calls now don't use the "pos_high" argument at all, and it makes more sense for the native system call to simply match the user-mode prototype. This results in a much more natural calling convention, and allows the compiler to generate much more straightforward code. On x86-64, we now generate testq %rcx, %rcx # pos_l js .L122 #, movq %rcx, -48(%rbp) # pos_l, pos from the C source loff_t pos = pos_from_hilo(pos_h, pos_l); ... if (pos < 0) return -EINVAL; and the 'pos_h' register isn't even touched. It used to generate code like mov %r8d, %r8d # pos_low, pos_low salq $32, %rcx #, tmp71 movq %r8, %rax # pos_low, pos.386 orq %rcx, %rax # tmp71, pos.386 js .L122 #, movq %rax, -48(%rbp) # pos.386, pos which isn't _that_ horrible, but it does show how the natural word size is just a more sensible interface (same arguments will hold in the user level glibc wrapper function, of course, so the kernel side is just half of the equation!) Note: in all cases the user code wrapper can again be the same. You can just do #define HALF_BITS (sizeof(unsigned long)*4) __syscall(PWRITEV, fd, iov, count, offset, (offset >> HALF_BITS) >> HALF_BITS); or something like that. That way the user mode wrapper will also be nicely passing in a zero (it won't actually have to do the shifts, the compiler will understand what is going on) for the last argument. And that is a good idea, even if nobody will necessarily ever care: if we ever do move to a 128-bit lloff_t, this particular system call might be left alone. Of course, that will be the least of our worries if we really ever need to care, so this may not be worth really caring about.

preadv/pwritev: Add preadv and pwritev system calls. This patch adds preadv and pwritev system calls. These syscalls are a pretty straightforward combination of pread and readv (same for write). They are quite useful for doing vectored I/O in threaded applications. Using lseek+readv instead opens race windows you'll have to plug with locking. Other systems have such system calls too, for example NetBSD, check here: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/preadv.2.html The application-visible interface provided by glibc should look like this to be compatible to the existing implementations in the *BSD family: ssize_t preadv(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset); ssize_t pwritev(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset); This prototype has one problem though: On 32bit archs is the (64bit) offset argument unaligned, which the syscall ABI of several archs doesn't allow to do. At least s390 needs a wrapper in glibc to handle this. As we'll need a wrappers in glibc anyway I've decided to push problem to glibc entriely and use a syscall prototype which works without arch-specific wrappers inside the kernel: The offset argument is explicitly splitted into two 32bit values. The patch sports the actual system call implementation and the windup in the x86 system call tables. Other archs follow as separate patches.

generic compat_sys_ustat Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but currently only x86 and mips provide one. Add a generic compat_sys_ustat and switch all architectures over to it. Instead of doing various user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as it's trivial. This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann. Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of data writen by the syscall.

timerfd: new timerfd API This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to exercise the new timerfd APIs: http://www.xmailserver.org/timerfd-test2.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix m68k build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix alpha, arm, blackfin, cris, m68k, s390, sparc and sparc64 builds] [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: fix s390] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix powerpc build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix sparc64 more] Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

[PATCH] select: fix returned timeval With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's `timeout' argument on return. We were writing back a timeout larger than the original. We _deliberately_ round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks us to. The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which was passed in. The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return the new timeout value. (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in time.h. But this code open-codes it all). Cc: "David S.

[PATCH] compat: be more consistent about [ug]id_t When I first wrote the compat layer patches, I was somewhat cavalier about the definition of compat_uid_t and compat_gid_t (or maybe I just misunderstood :-)). This patch makes the compat types much more consistent with the types we are being compatible with and hopefully will fix a few bugs along the way. compat type type in compat arch __compat_[ug]id_t __kernel_[ug]id_t __compat_[ug]id32_t __kernel_[ug]id32_t compat_[ug]id_t [ug]id_t The difference is that compat_uid_t is always 32 bits (for the archs we care about) but __compat_uid_t may be 16 bits on some.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
