2014-05-04x86, x32: Use compat shims for io_{setup,submit}Mike Frysinger
The io_setup takes a pointer to a context id of type aio_context_t. This in turn is typed to a __kernel_ulong_t. We could tweak the exported headers to define this as a 64bit quantity for specific ABIs, but since we already have a 32bit compat shim for the x86 ABI, let's just re-use that logic. The libaio package is also written to expect this as a pointer type, so a compat shim would simplify that. The io_submit func operates on an array of pointers to iocb structs. Padding out the array to be 64bit aligned is a huge pain, so convert it over to the existing compat shim too. We don't convert io_getevents to the compat func as its only purpose is to handle the timespec struct, and the x32 ABI uses 64bit times. With this change, the libaio package can now pass its testsuite when built for the x32 ABI.

2014-01-13sched: Add new scheduler syscalls to support an extended scheduling ↵Dario Faggioli
parameters ABI Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE). In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task, that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints, i.e.: - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time, - a minimum interval between consecutive instances, - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed. Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended. Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with legacy binaries. For these reasons, this patch: - defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational model described above; - defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr(). Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them available on other architectures is straightforward. Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch, the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

2012-12-14module: add syscall to load module from fdKees Cook
As part of the effort to create a stronger boundary between root and kernel, Chrome OS wants to be able to enforce that kernel modules are being loaded only from our read-only crypto-hash verified (dm_verity) root filesystem. Since the init_module syscall hands the kernel a module as a memory blob, no reasoning about the origin of the blob can be made. Earlier proposals for appending signatures to kernel modules would not be useful in Chrome OS, since it would involve adding an additional set of keys to our kernel and builds for no good reason: we already trust the contents of our root filesystem. We don't need to verify those kernel modules a second time. Having to do signature checking on module loading would slow us down and be redundant. All we need to know is where a module is coming from so we can say yes/no to loading it. If a file descriptor is used as the source of a kernel module, many more things can be reasoned about. In Chrome OS's case, we could enforce that the module lives on the filesystem we expect it to live on. In the case of IMA (or other LSMs), it would be possible, for example, to examine extended attributes that may contain signatures over the contents of the module. This introduces a new syscall (on x86), similar to init_module, that has only two arguments. The first argument is used as a file descriptor to the module and the second argument is a pointer to the NULL terminated string of module arguments.

2012-10-02UAPI: Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checkingDavid Howells
Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system. As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files. The changes made in this commit are: (1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we get: include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch. (2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from rather than the old path. It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory during the changeover. I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a directory not the install program. (3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly where to find each file. For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each output directory: .../include/uapi/foo/ .../include/generated/uapi/foo/ .../include/foo/ .../include/generated/foo/ The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.

2012-08-18x32: Use compat shims for {g,s}etsockoptMike Frysinger
Some of the arguments to {g,s}etsockopt are passed in userland pointers. If we try to use the 64bit entry point, we end up sometimes failing. For example, dhcpcd doesn't run in x32: # dhcpcd eth0 dhcpcd[1979]: version 5.5.6 starting dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: broadcasting for a lease dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: open_socket: Invalid argument dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: send_raw_packet: Bad file descriptor The code in particular is getting back EINVAL when doing: struct sock_fprog pf; setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_FILTER, &pf, sizeof(pf)); Diving into the kernel code, we can see: include/linux/filter.h: struct sock_fprog { unsigned short len; struct sock_filter __user *filter; }; net/core/sock.c: case SO_ATTACH_FILTER: ret = -EINVAL; if (optlen == sizeof(struct sock_fprog)) { struct sock_fprog fprog; ret = -EFAULT; if (copy_from_user(&fprog, optval, sizeof(fprog))) break; ret = sk_attach_filter(&fprog, sk); } break; arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl: 54 common setsockopt sys_setsockopt 55 common getsockopt sys_getsockopt So for x64, sizeof(sock_fprog) is 16 bytes. For x86/x32, it's 8 bytes. This comes down to the pointer being 32bit for x32, which means we need to do structure size translation. But since x32 comes in directly to sys_setsockopt, it doesn't get translated like x86. After changing the syscall table and rebuilding glibc with the new kernel headers, dhcp runs fine in an x32 userland. Oddly, it seems like Linus noted the same thing during the initial port, but I guess that was missed/lost along the way: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/26/452 [ hpa: tagging for -stable since this is an ABI fix. ] Bugzilla: https://bugs.gentoo.org/423649 Reported-by: Mads <mads@ab3.no> Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1345320697-15713-1-git-send-email-vapier@gentoo.org Cc: H.

2012-05-31syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscallCyrill Gorcunov
While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are shared between tasks and restore this state. The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one. One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such info considered to be not that good for security reasons. Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named 'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it -- __NR_kcmp. It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of comparison of files) two file descriptors. Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only. At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

X32 ptrace is a hybrid of 64bit ptrace and compat ptrace with 32bit address and longs. It use 64bit ptrace to access the full 64bit registers. PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR are only allowed to access segment and debug registers. PTRACE_PEEKUSR returns the lower 32bits and PTRACE_POKEUSR zero-extends 32bit value to 64bit. It works since the upper 32bits of segment and debug registers of x32 process are always zero. GDB only uses PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR to access segment and debug registers.

2012-03-05x32: Switch to a 64-bit clock_tH. Peter Anvin
clock_t is used mainly to give the number of jiffies a certain process has burned. It is entirely feasible for a long-running process to consume more than 2^32 jiffies especially in a multiprocess system. As such, switch to a 64-bit clock_t for x32, just as we already switched to a 64-bit time_t. clock_t is only used in a handful of places, and as such it is really not a very significant change. The one that has the biggest impact is in struct siginfo, but since the *size* of struct siginfo doesn't change (it is padded to the hilt) it is fairly easy to make this a localized change. This also gets rid of sys_x32_times, however since this is a pretty late change don't compactify the system call numbers; we can reuse system call slot 521 next time we need an x32 system call.

However, x86 allows data accesses with arbitrary alignment, and therefore there is no reason for this code to be different. Reported-by: Gregory M. Lueck <gregory.m.lueck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H.

2011-11-18x86, syscall: Allow syscall offset to be symbolicH. Peter Anvin
Allow the specified syscall offset to be symbolic, e.g. a macro. For offset system calls, this if nothing else makes the generated code easier to read. Suggested-by: H. J.

2011-11-18x86: Simplify syscallhdr.shH. Peter Anvin
Simplify syscallhdr.sh by letting grep sort out the ABIs that we want, rather than relying on manual list matching. This is safe since the ABI strings already have to consist only of characters which are valid in C macro names.

2011-11-17x86: Machine-readable syscall tables and scripts to process themH. Peter Anvin
Create a simple set of syscall tables and scripts to turn them into both header files (unistd_*.h) and macros for generating the system call tables. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>
