x86: don't allow tail-calls in sys_ftruncate[64]()

Gcc thinks it owns the incoming argument stack, but that's not true for
"asmlinkage" functions, and it corrupts the caller-set-up argument stack
when it pushes the third argument onto the stack.  Which can result in
%ebx getting corrupted in user space.

Now, normally nobody sane would ever notice, since libc will save and
restore %ebx anyway over the system call, but it's still wrong.

I'd much rather have "asmlinkage" tell gcc directly that it doesn't own
the stack, but no such attribute exists, so we're stuck with our hacky
manual "prevent_tail_call()" macro once more (we've had the same issue

18 years agopowerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap mode
Paul Mackerras [Tue, 18 Apr 2006 11:49:11 +0000 (21:49 +1000)]
powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap mode

We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into
nap mode.  When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus
started hanging when we put them into nap mode.  Changing to the
recommended sequence fixes that.

The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that
keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode.  Clearly we need some way
to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt,
decrementer, performance monitor) occurs.  Here we use a bit in
the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception
entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return
to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop.
We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can
alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence.

The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing
there too.

This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on
32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to
get trashed.

18 years ago[PATCH] shmat: stop mprotect from giving write permission to a readonly attachment...
Hugh Dickins [Wed, 12 Apr 2006 21:34:27 +0000 (14:34 -0700)]
[PATCH] shmat: stop mprotect from giving write permission to a readonly attachment (CVE-2006-1524)

I found that all of 2.4 and 2.6 have been letting mprotect give write
permission to a readonly attachment of shared memory, whether or not IPC
would give the caller that permission.

SUS says "The behaviour of this function [mprotect] is unspecified if the
mapping was not established by a call to mmap", but I don't think we can
interpret that as allowing it to subvert IPC permissions.

I haven't tried 2.2, but the 2.2.26 source looks like it gets it right; and
the patch below reproduces that behaviour - mprotect cannot be used to add
write permission to a shared memory segment attached readonly.

This patch is simple, and I'm sure it's what we should have done in 2.4.0:
if you want to go on to switch write permission on and off with mprotect,
just don't attach the segment readonly in the first place.

However, we could have accumulated apps which attach readonly (even though
they would be permitted to attach read/write), and which subsequently use
mprotect to switch write permission on and off: it's not unreasonable.

I was going to add a second ipcperms check in do_shmat, to check for
writable when readonly, and if not writable find_vma and clear VM_MAYWRITE.
 But security_ipc_permission might do auditing, and it seems wrong to
report an attempt for write permission when there has been none.  Or we
could flag the vma as SHM, note the shmid or shp in vm_private_data, and
then get mprotect to check.

But the patch below is a lot simpler: I'd rather stick with it, if we can
convince ourselves somehow that it'll be safe.

      [PATCH] DMI: move dmi_scan.c from arch/i386 to drivers/firmware/

      dmi_scan.c is arch-independent and is used by i386, x86_64, and ia64.
      Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64
      and x86_64 depend on things in arch/i386 that they wouldn't otherwise care
      about.

      This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing
      trailing whitespace) and the associated Makefile changes.  All three
      architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.

[PATCH] dma doc updates

This updates the DMA API documentation to address a few issues:

 - The dma_map_sg() call results are used like pci_map_sg() results:
   using sg_dma_address() and sg_dma_len().  That's not wholly obvious
   to folk reading _only_ the "new" DMA-API.txt writeup.

 - Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() may not be completely
   free of coherency concerns ... some CPUs also have write buffers
   that may need to be flushed.

 - Cacheline coherence issues are now mentioned as being among issues
   which affect dma buffers, and complicate/prevent using of static and
   (especially) stack based buffers with the DMA calls.

I don't think many drivers currently need to worry about flushing write
buffers, but I did hit it with one SOC using external SDRAM for DMA
descriptors:  without explicit writebuffer flushing, the on-chip DMA
controller accessed descriptors before the CPU completed the writes.
