* x86/mm/64: Improve stack overflow warningsPeter Zijlstra2021-09-211-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current code has an explicit check for hitting the task stack guard; but overflowing any of the other stacks will get you a non-descript general #DF warning. Improve matters by using get_stack_info_noinstr() to detetrmine if and which stack guard page got hit, enabling a better stack warning. In specific, Michael Wang reported what turned out to be an NMI exception stack overflow, which is now clearly reported as such: [] BUG: NMI stack guard page was hit at 0000000085fd977b (stack is 000000003a55b09e..00000000d8cce1a5) Reported-by: Michael Wang <yun.wang@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Tested-by: Michael Wang <yun.wang@linux.alibaba.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/YUTE/NuqnaWbST8n@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net

* x86: add missing const qualifiers for log_lvlDmitry Safonov2020-06-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the log-level of show_stack() depends on a platform realization. It creates situations where the headers are printed with lower log level or higher than the stacktrace (depending on a platform or user). Furthermore, it forces the logic decision from user to an architecture side. In result, some users as sysrq/kdb/etc are doing tricks with temporary rising console_loglevel while printing their messages. And in result it not only may print unwanted messages from other CPUs, but also omit printing at all in the unlucky case where the printk() was deferred. Introducing log-level parameter and KERN_UNSUPPRESSED [1] seems an easier approach than introducing more printk buffers. Also, it will consolidate printings with headers. Keep log_lvl const show_trace_log_lvl() and printk_stack_address() as the new generic show_stack_loglvl() wants to have a proper const qualifier. And gcc rightfully produces warnings in case it's not keept: arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c: In function `show_stack': arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c:294:37: warning: passing argument 4 of `show_trace_log_lv ' discards `const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers] 294 | show_trace_log_lvl(task, NULL, sp, loglvl); | ^~~~~~ arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c:163:32: note: expected `char *' but argument is of type `const char *' 163 | unsigned long *stack, char *log_lvl) | ~~~~~~^~~~~~~ [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190528002412.1625-1-dima@arista.com/T/#u Signed-off-by: Dmitry Safonov <dima@arista.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: "H.

* x86/stackframe/32: Provide consistent pt_regsPeter Zijlstra2019-06-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently pt_regs on x86_32 has an oddity in that kernel regs (!user_mode(regs)) are short two entries (esp/ss). This means that any code trying to use them (typically: regs->sp) needs to jump through some unfortunate hoops. Change the entry code to fix this up and create a full pt_regs frame. This then simplifies various trampolines in ftrace and kprobes, the stack unwinder, ptrace, kdump and kgdb. Much thanks to Josh for help with the cleanups!

* | perf/x86: Make perf callchains work without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERKairui Song2019-04-291-13/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently perf callchain doesn't work well with ORC unwinder when sampling from trace point. We'll get useless in kernel callchain like this: perf 6429 [000] 22.498450: kmem:mm_page_alloc: page=0x176a17 pfn=1534487 order=0 migratetype=0 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL ffffffffbe23e32e __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x22e (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) 7efdf7f7d3e8 __poll+0x18 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so) 5651468729c1 [unknown] (/usr/bin/perf) 5651467ee82a main+0x69a (/usr/bin/perf) 7efdf7eaf413 __libc_start_main+0xf3 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so) 5541f689495641d7 [unknown] ([unknown]) The root cause is that, for trace point events, it doesn't provide a real snapshot of the hardware registers. Instead perf tries to get required caller's registers and compose a fake register snapshot which suppose to contain enough information for start a unwinding. However without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, if failed to get caller's BP as the frame pointer, so current frame pointer is returned instead. We get a invalid register combination which confuse the unwinder, and end the stacktrace early. So in such case just don't try dump BP, and let the unwinder start directly when the register is not a real snapshot. Use SP as the skip mark, unwinder will skip all the frames until it meet the frame of the trace point caller. Tested with frame pointer unwinder and ORC unwinder, this makes perf callchain get the full kernel space stacktrace again like this: perf 6503 [000] 1567.570191: kmem:mm_page_alloc: page=0x16c904 pfn=1493252 order=0 migratetype=0 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL ffffffffb523e2ae __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x22e (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb52383bd __get_free_pages+0xd (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb52fd28a __pollwait+0x8a (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb521426f perf_poll+0x2f (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb52fe3e2 do_sys_poll+0x252 (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb52ff027 __x64_sys_poll+0x37 (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb500418b do_syscall_64+0x5b (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) ffffffffb5a0008c entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44 (/lib/modules/5.1.0-rc3+/build/vmlinux) 7f71e92d03e8 __poll+0x18 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so) 55a22960d9c1 [unknown] (/usr/bin/perf) 55a22958982a main+0x69a (/usr/bin/perf) 7f71e9202413 __libc_start_main+0xf3 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so) 5541f689495641d7 [unknown] ([unknown]) Co-developed-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kairui Song <kasong@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <alexei.starovoitov@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190422162652.15483-1-kasong@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+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.

* x86/unwind: Include __schedule() in stack tracesJosh Poimboeuf2017-01-121-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the following commit: 0100301bfdf5 ("sched/x86: Rewrite the switch_to() code") ... the layout of the 'inactive_task_frame' struct was designed to have a frame pointer header embedded in it, so that the unwinder could use the 'bp' and 'ret_addr' fields to report __schedule() on the stack (or ret_from_fork() for newly forked tasks which haven't actually run yet). Finish the job by changing get_frame_pointer() to return a pointer to inactive_task_frame's 'bp' field rather than 'bp' itself. This allows the unwinder to start one frame higher on the stack, so that it properly reports __schedule().

* x86/unwind: Disable KASAN checks for non-current tasksJosh Poimboeuf2017-01-121-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a handful of callers to save_stack_trace_tsk() and show_stack() which try to unwind the stack of a task other than current. In such cases, it's remotely possible that the task is running on one CPU while the unwinder is reading its stack from another CPU, causing the unwinder to see stack corruption. These cases seem to be mostly harmless. The unwinder has checks which prevent it from following bad pointers beyond the bounds of the stack. So it's not really a bug as long as the caller understands that unwinding another task will not always succeed. In such cases, it's possible that the unwinder may read a KASAN-poisoned region of the stack. Account for that by using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() when reading the stack of another task. Use READ_ONCE() when reading the stack of the current task, since KASAN warnings can still be useful for finding bugs in that case.

This seems to be an artifact from long ago, and probably isn't needed anymore. It generally just adds noise to the dump, and it can be actively harmful because it leaks kernel addresses. Linus says: "The stack dump actually goes back to forever, and it used to be useful back in 1992 or so. But it used to be useful mainly because stacks were simpler and we didn't have very good call traces anyway. I definitely remember having used them - I just do not remember having used them in the last ten+ years. Of course, it's still true that if you can trigger an oops, you've likely already lost the security game, but since the stack dump is so useless, let's aim to just remove it and make games like the above harder." This also removes the related 'kstack=' cmdline option and the 'kstack_depth_to_print' sysctl.

* x86/dumpstack: Convert show_trace_log_lvl() to use the new unwinderJosh Poimboeuf2016-09-201-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert show_trace_log_lvl() to use the new unwinder. dump_trace() has been deprecated. show_trace_log_lvl() is special compared to other users of the unwinder. It's the only place where both reliable *and* unreliable addresses are needed. With frame pointers enabled, most callers of the unwinder don't want to know about unreliable addresses. But in this case, when we're dumping the stack to the console because something presumably went wrong, the unreliable addresses are useful: - They show stale data on the stack which can provide useful clues. - If something goes wrong with the unwinder, or if frame pointers are corrupt or missing, all the stack addresses still get shown. So in order to show all addresses on the stack, and at the same time figure out which addresses are reliable, we have to do the scanning and the unwinding in parallel. The scanning is done with the help of get_stack_info() to traverse the stacks. The unwinding is done separately by the new unwinder. In theory we could simplify show_trace_log_lvl() by instead pushing some of this logic into the unwind code. But then we would need some kind of "fake" frame logic in the unwinder which would add a lot of complexity and wouldn't be worth it in order to support only one user. Another benefit of this approach is that once we have a DWARF unwinder, we should be able to just plug it in with minimal impact to this code. Another change here is that callers of show_trace_log_lvl() don't need to provide the 'bp' argument. The unwinder already finds the relevant frame pointer by unwinding until it reaches the first frame after the provided stack pointer.

If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y it could mark whether the pointer is valid or not based on value of the frame pointer. Invalid entries could be preceded by '?' sign. However this was not going to happen because scan start point was always higher than the frame pointer so that they could not meet. Commit 9c0729dc8062 ("x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routines") delayed bp acquisition point, so the bp was read in lower frame, thus all of the entries were marked invalid.

* x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routinesSoeren Sandmann Pedersen2010-11-181-3/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The various stack tracing routines take a 'bp' argument in which the caller is supposed to provide the base pointer to use, or 0 if doesn't have one. Since bp is garbage whenever CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, this means all callers in principle should either always pass 0, or be conditional on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. However, there are only really three use cases for stack tracing: (a) Trace the current task, including IRQ stack if any (b) Trace the current task, but skip IRQ stack (c) Trace some other task In all cases, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, bp should just be 0. If it _is_ defined, then - in case (a) bp should be gotten directly from the CPU's register, so the caller should pass NULL for regs, - in case (b) the caller should should pass the IRQ registers to dump_trace(), - in case (c) bp should be gotten from the top of the task's stack, so the caller should pass NULL for regs. Hence, the bp argument is not necessary because the combination of task and regs is sufficient to determine an appropriate value for bp. This patch introduces a new inline function stack_frame(task, regs) that computes the desired bp. This function is then called from the two versions of dump_stack().

* perf events, x86/stacktrace: Fix performance/softlockup by providing a ↵Frederic Weisbecker2009-12-171-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | special frame pointer-only stack walker It's just wasteful for stacktrace users like perf to walk through every entries on the stack whereas these only accept reliable ones, ie: that the frame pointer validates. Since perf requires pure reliable stacktraces, it needs a stack walker based on frame pointers-only to optimize the stacktrace processing. This might solve some near-lockup scenarios that can be triggered by call-graph tracing timer events.

* perf events, x86/stacktrace: Make stack walking optionalFrederic Weisbecker2009-12-171-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current print_context_stack helper that does the stack walking job is good for usual stacktraces as it walks through all the stack and reports even addresses that look unreliable, which is nice when we don't have frame pointers for example. But we have users like perf that only require reliable stacktraces, and those may want a more adapted stack walker, so lets make this function a callback in stacktrace_ops that users can tune for their needs.

To solve this, we simply ignore every frames from nmi context.
