2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
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.

modify_ldt() has questionable locking and does not synchronize threads. Improve it: redesign the locking and synchronize all threads' LDTs using an IPI on all modifications. This will dramatically slow down modify_ldt in multithreaded programs, but there shouldn't be any multithreaded programs that care about modify_ldt's performance in the first place.

2013-01-22ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILLOleg Nesterov1-4/+5
putreg() assumes that the tracee is not running and pt_regs_access() can safely play with its stack. However a killed tracee can return from ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee does SAVE_REST again. set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the logic. As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace() call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths. Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before access_process_vm(). While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

2012-09-15uprobes/x86: Do not (ab)use TIF_SINGLESTEP/user_*_single_step() for ↵Oleg Nesterov1-1/+1
single-stepping user_enable/disable_single_step() was designed for ptrace, it assumes a single user and does unnecessary and wrong things for uprobes. For example: - arch_uprobe_enable_step() can't trust TIF_SINGLESTEP, an application itself can set X86_EFLAGS_TF which must be preserved after arch_uprobe_disable_step(). - we do not want to set TIF_SINGLESTEP/TIF_FORCED_TF in arch_uprobe_enable_step(), this only makes sense for ptrace. - otoh we leak TIF_SINGLESTEP if arch_uprobe_disable_step() doesn't do user_disable_single_step(), the application will be killed after the next syscall. - arch_uprobe_enable_step() does access_process_vm() we do not need/want. Change arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() to set/clear X86_EFLAGS_TF directly, this is much simpler and more correct. However, we need to clear TIF_BLOCKSTEP/DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF before executing the probed insn, add set_task_blockstep(false). Note: with or without this patch, there is another (hopefully minor) problem. A probed "pushf" insn can see the wrong X86_EFLAGS_TF set by uprobes. Perhaps we should change _disable to update the stack, or teach arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() to emulate this insn.

2012-09-15ptrace/x86: Partly fix set_task_blockstep()->update_debugctlmsr() logicOleg Nesterov1-1/+13
Afaics the usage of update_debugctlmsr() and TIF_BLOCKSTEP in step.c was always very wrong. 1. update_debugctlmsr() was simply unneeded. The child sleeps TASK_TRACED, __switch_to_xtra(next_p => child) should notice TIF_BLOCKSTEP and set/clear DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF after resume if needed. 2. It is wrong. The state of DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF bit in CPU register should always match the state of current's TIF_BLOCKSTEP bit. 3. Even get_debugctlmsr() + update_debugctlmsr() itself does not look right. Irq can change other bits in MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR register or the caller can be preempted in between. 4. It is not safe to play with TIF_BLOCKSTEP if task != current. DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF and TIF_BLOCKSTEP should always match each other if the task is running. The tracee is stopped but it can be SIGKILL'ed right before set/clear_tsk_thread_flag(). However, now that uprobes uses user_enable_single_step(current) we can't simply remove update_debugctlmsr(). So this patch adds the additional "task == current" check and disables irqs to avoid the race with interrupts/preemption. Unfortunately this patch doesn't solve the last problem, we need another fix. Probably we should teach ptrace_stop() to set/clear single/block stepping after resume. And afaics there is yet another problem: perf can play with MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR from nmi, this obviously means that even __switch_to_xtra() has problems.

2011-08-05x86-64: Add user_64bit_mode paravirt opAndy Lutomirski1-1/+1
Three places in the kernel assume that the only long mode CPL 3 selector is __USER_CS. This is not true on Xen -- Xen's sysretq changes cs to the magic value 0xe033. Two of the places are corner cases, but as of "x86-64: Improve vsyscall emulation CS and RIP handling" (c9712944b2a12373cb6ff8059afcfb7e826a6c54), vsyscalls will segfault if called with Xen's extra CS selector. This causes a panic when older init builds die. It seems impossible to make Xen use __USER_CS reliably without taking a performance hit on every system call, so this fixes the tests instead with a new paravirt op. It's a little ugly because ptrace.h can't include paravirt.h.

Support for the PMU's BTS features has been upstreamed in v2.6.32, but we still have the old and disabled ptrace-BTS, as Linus noticed it not so long ago. It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility needed for perf either. Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a much simpler approach. So axe all 3000 lines of it.

This avoids using wrmsr on MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR when it's not needed. No wrmsr ever needs to be done if noone has ever used block stepping. Without this change, using ptrace on 2.6.25 on an x86 KVM guest will tickle KVM's missing support for the MSR and crash the guest kernel.

Resend using different mail client Changes to the last version: - split implementation into two layers: ds/bts and ptrace - renamed TIF's - save/restore ds save area msr in __switch_to_xtra() - make block-stepping only look at BTF bit Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: rename the struct pt_regs members for 32/64-bit consistencyH. Peter Anvin1-10/+5
We have a lot of code which differs only by the naming of specific members of structures that contain registers. In order to enable additional unifications, this patch drops the e- or r- size prefix from the register names in struct pt_regs, and drops the x- prefixes for segment registers on the 32-bit side. This patch also performs the equivalent renames in some additional places that might be candidates for unification in the future. Signed-off-by: H.

2008-01-30x86: debugctlmsr arch_has_block_stepRoland McGrath1-3/+61
This implements user-mode step-until-branch on x86 using the BTF bit in MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR. It's just like single-step, only less so. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86 single_step: TIF_FORCED_TFRoland McGrath1-6/+3
This changes the single-step support to use a new thread_info flag TIF_FORCED_TF instead of the PT_DTRACE flag in task_struct.ptrace. This keeps arch implementation uses out of this non-arch field. This changes the ptrace access to eflags to mask TF and maintain the TIF_FORCED_TF flag directly if userland sets TF, instead of relying on ptrace_signal_deliver. The 64-bit and 32-bit kernels are harmonized on this same behavior. The ptrace_signal_deliver approach works now, but this change makes the low-level register access code reliable when called from different contexts than a ptrace stop, which will be possible in the future. The 64-bit do_debug exception handler is also changed not to clear TF from user-mode registers. This matches the 32-bit kernel's behavior.

2008-01-30x86: single_step: share codeRoland McGrath1-0/+14
This removes the single-step code from ptrace_32.c and uses the step.c code shared with the 64-bit kernel. The two versions of the code were nearly identical already, so the shared code has only a couple of simple #ifdef's.

2008-01-30x86: single_step 0xf0Roland McGrath1-1/+1
This fixes the 64-bit single-step handling code's instruction decoder to grok the 0xf0 (lock) prefix, which the 32-bit code already does correctly. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: single_step segment macrosRoland McGrath1-3/+1
This cleans up the single-step code to use the asm/segment.h macros for segment selector magic bits, rather than its own constant. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: single_step movedRoland McGrath1-0/+140
This moves the single-step support code from ptrace_64.c into a new file step.c, verbatim. This paves the way for consolidating this code between 64-bit and 32-bit versions.
