* mtd: properly check all write ioctls for permissionsGreg Kroah-Hartman2020-07-241-9/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When doing a "write" ioctl call, properly check that we have permissions to do so before copying anything from userspace or anything else so we can "fail fast". This includes also covering the MEMWRITE ioctl which previously missed checking for this.

* mtd: implement proper partition handlingMiquel Raynal2020-03-111-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of collecting partitions in a flat list, create a hierarchy within the mtd_info structure: use a partitions list to keep track of the partitions of an MTD device (which might be itself a partition of another MTD device), a pointer to the parent device (NULL when the MTD device is the root one, not a partition). By also saving directly in mtd_info the offset of the partition, we can get rid of the mtd_part structure. While at it, be consistent in the naming of the mtd_info structures to ease the understanding of the new hierarchy: these structures are usually called 'mtd', unless there are multiple instances of the same structure. In this case, there is usually a parent/child bound so we will call them 'parent' and 'child'.

* mtd: Initialize all parameters of mtd_oob_opsMiquel Raynal2019-10-081-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the time the ooboffs parameter of the mtd_oob_ops structure was initialized only when needed. Since the introduction of the SPI-NAND subsystem, this parameter is transferred into nand_page_io_req structure automatically and may be used by any SPI-NAND user. Before this happens, initialize all the structure parameters when they are created in mtdchar.c. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com>

* mtdchar: fix overflows in adjustment of `count`Jann Horn2018-07-181-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first checks in mtdchar_read() and mtdchar_write() attempt to limit `count` such that `*ppos + count <= mtd->size`. However, they ignore the possibility of `*ppos > mtd->size`, allowing the calculation of `count` to wrap around. `mtdchar_lseek()` prevents seeking beyond mtd->size, but the pread/pwrite syscalls bypass this. I haven't found any codepath on which this actually causes dangerous behavior, but it seems like a sensible change anyway.

| * mtd: Unconditionally update ->fail_addr and ->addr in part_erase()Boris Brezillon2018-03-151-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ->fail_addr and ->addr can be updated no matter the result of parent->_erase(), we just need to remove the code doing the same thing in mtd_erase_callback() to avoid adjusting those fields twice.

While we're at it, get rid of the erase_info->mtd field which was only needed to let mtd_erase_callback() get the partition device back.

* mtd: create an mtd_ooblayout_ops struct to ease ECC layout definitionBoris Brezillon2016-04-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ECC layout definitions are currently exposed using the nand_ecclayout struct which embeds oobfree and eccpos arrays with predefined size. This approach was acceptable when NAND chips were providing relatively small OOB regions, but MLC and TLC now provide OOB regions of several hundreds of bytes, which implies a non negligible overhead for everybody even those who only need to support legacy NANDs. Create an mtd_ooblayout_ops interface providing the same functionality (expose the ECC and oobfree layout) without the need for this huge structure. The mtd->ecclayout is now deprecated and should be replaced by the equivalent mtd_ooblayout_ops. In the meantime we provide a wrapper around the ->ecclayout field to ease migration to this new model.

* mtd: provide proper 32/64-bit compat_ioctl() support for BLKPGBrian Norris2015-09-291-9/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After a bit of poking around wondering why my 32-bit user-space can't seem to send a proper ioctl(BLKPG) to an MTD on my 64-bit kernel (ARM64), I noticed that struct blkpg_ioctl_arg is actually pretty unsuitable for use in the ioctl() ABI, due to its use of raw pointers, and its lack of alignment/packing restrictions (32-bit arch'es tend to pack the 4 fields into 4 32-bit words, whereas 64-bit arch'es would add padding after the third int, and make this 6 32-bit words). Anyway, this means BLKPG deserves some special compat_ioctl handling. Do the conversion in a small shim for MTD. block/compat_ioctl.c already has compat support for the block subsystem, but it does so by a re-marshalling data to/from user-space (see compat_blkpg_ioctl()). Personally, I think this approach is cleaner. Tested only on MTD, with an ARM32 user space on an ARM64 kernel. Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>
* fs: introduce f_op->mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap supportChristoph Hellwig2015-01-201-62/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated to it's original purpose. Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to the nommu mmap code instead. Splitting this from the backing_dev_info structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a backing_dev_info for a character device. It also removes the need for the mtd_inodefs filesystem.

* mtd: Fix the behavior of OTP write if there is not enough room for dataChristian Riesch2014-03-111-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a write to one time programmable memory (OTP) hits the end of this memory area, no more data can be written. The count variable in mtdchar_write() in drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c is not decreased anymore. We are trapped in the loop forever, mtdchar_write() will never return in this case. The desired behavior of a write in such a case is described in [1]: - Try to write as much data as possible, truncate the write to fit into the available memory and return the number of bytes that actually have been written. - If no data could be written at all, return -ENOSPC. This patch fixes the behavior of OTP write if there is not enough space for all data: 1) mtd_write_user_prot_reg() in drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c is modified to return -ENOSPC if no data could be written at all. 2) mtdchar_write() is modified to handle -ENOSPC correctly. Exit if a write returned -ENOSPC and yield the correct return value, either then number of bytes that could be written, or -ENOSPC, if no data could be written at all. Furthermore the patch harmonizes the behavior of the OTP memory write in drivers/mtd/devices/mtd_dataflash.c with the other implementations and the requirements from [1]. Instead of returning -EINVAL if the data does not fit into the OTP memory, we try to write as much data as possible/truncate the write.

The side-effect of this is that its configuration menu is rather large, and we are gradually shrinking it. For example, we recently merged partitions support with the mtdcore. This patch does the next step - it merges the mtdchar module to mtdcore. And in this case this is not only about eliminating too fine-grained separation and simplifying the configuration menu. This is also about eliminating seemingly useless kernel module. Indeed, mtdchar is a module that allows user-space making use of MTD devices via /dev/mtd* character devices. If users do not enable it, they simply cannot use MTD devices at all. They cannot read or write the flash contents. Is it a sane and useful setup? I believe not. And everyone just enables mtdchar. Having mtdchar separate is also a little bit harmful. People sometimes miss the fact that they need to enable an additional configuration option to have user-space MTD interfaces, and then they wonder why on earth the kernel does not allow using the flash? They spend time asking around. Thus, let's just get rid of this module and make it part of mtd core. Note, mtdchar had additional configuration option to enable OTP interfaces, which are present on some flashes. I removed that option as well - it saves a really tiny amount space. [dwmw2: Strictly speaking, you can mount file systems on MTD devices just fine without the mtdchar (or mtdblock) devices; you just can't do other manipulations directly on the underlying device. But still I agree that it makes sense to make this unconditional.

* fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.Eric W. Biederman2013-03-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA, currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects: | effect | alternative flags -+------------------------+--------------------------------------------- 1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO 2| skip in core dump | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP 3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP 4| do not mlock | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct. Seems like nobody cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only reduces total_vm showed in proc. Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP. remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP. remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

* mtdchar: fix offset overflow detectionLinus Torvalds2012-09-281-6/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sasha Levin has been running trinity in a KVM tools guest, and was able to trigger the BUG_ON() at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:279 (verifying the range of the memory type). The call trace showed that it was mtdchar_mmap() that created an invalid remap_pfn_range(). The problem is that mtdchar_mmap() does various really odd and subtle things with the vma page offset etc, and uses the wrong types (and the wrong overflow) detection for it. For example, the page offset may well be 32-bit on a 32-bit architecture, but after shifting it up by PAGE_SHIFT, we need to use a potentially 64-bit resource_size_t to correctly hold the full value. Also, we need to check that the vma length plus offset doesn't overflow before we check that it is smaller than the length of the mtdmap region. This fixes things up and tries to make the code a bit easier to read.

* mtd: fix oops in dataflash driverWill Newton2012-05-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I'm seeing an oops in mtd_dataflash.c with Linux 3.3. What appears to be happening is that otp_select_filemode calls mtd_read_fact_prot_reg with -1 for offset and length and a NULL buffer to test if OTP operations are supported. This finds its way down to otp_read in mtd_dataflash.c and causes an oops when memcpying the returned data into the NULL buf. None of the checks in otp_read catches the negative length and offset. Changing the length of the dummy read to 0 prevents the oops.

| * mtd: add leading underscore to all mtd functionsArtem Bityutskiy2012-03-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch renames all MTD functions by adding a "_" prefix: mtd->erase -> mtd->_erase mtd->read_oob -> mtd->_read_oob ... The reason is that we are re-working the MTD API and from now on it is an error to use MTD function pointers directly - we have a corresponding API call for every pointer. By adding a leading "_" we achieve the following: 1. Make sure we convert every direct pointer users 2. A leading "_" suggests that this interface is internal and it becomes less likely that people will use them directly 3. Make sure all the out-of-tree modules stop compiling and the owners spot the big API change and amend them.
