<id>urn:sha1:02d5761c1e90a6b5c7a8f7e256346eeace5d4c3c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 0b9ba6135d7f18b82f3d8bebb55ded725ba88e0e upstream.

UML generally does not provide access to special CPU instructions like
RDRAND, and execution tends to be rather deterministic, with no real
hardware interrupts, making good randomness really very hard, if not
all together impossible. Not only is this a security eyebrow raiser, but
it's also quite annoying when trying to do various pieces of UML-based
automation that takes a long time to boot, if ever.

Fix this by trivially calling getrandom() in the host and using that
seed as "bootloader randomness", which initializes the rng immediately
at UML boot.

The old behavior can be restored the same way as on any other arch, by
way of CONFIG_TRUST_BOOTLOADER_RANDOMNESS=n or
random.trust_bootloader=0. So seen from that perspective, this just
makes UML act like other archs, which is positive in its own right.

Additionally, wire up arch_get_random_{int,long}() in the same way, so
that reseeds can also make use of the host RNG, controllable by
CONFIG_TRUST_CPU_RANDOMNESS and random.trust_cpu, per usual.

Implement apply_returns() stub for UM, just like all the other patching
routines.

<content type='text'>
commit c200e4bb44e80b343c09841e7caaaca0aac5e5fa upstream.

User mode linux is the last user of the PT_DTRACE flag.  Using the flag to indicate
single stepping is a little confusing and worse changing tsk-&gt;ptrace without locking
could potentionally cause problems.

So use a thread info flag with a better name instead of flag in tsk-&gt;ptrace.

Remove the definition PT_DTRACE as uml is the last user.

Pull ptrace cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of
  the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing
  permission check to ptrace.c

  The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
  source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around
  task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the
  semantics clearer).

  For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
  implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
  was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
  years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
  bit at a time. To the point where anything left in tracehook.h was
  some weird strange thing that was difficult to understand"

<title>x86/alternative: Use .ibt_endbr_seal to seal indirect calls</title>

<content type='text'>
Objtool's --ibt option generates .ibt_endbr_seal which lists
superfluous ENDBR instructions. That is those instructions for which
the function is never indirectly called.

Overwrite these ENDBR instructions with a NOP4 such that these
function can never be indirect called, reducing the number of viable
ENDBR targets in the kernel.

Scan the tree for reserved memory before unflattening it.  As Rob
Herring said:
| These should be reversed. early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() works on
| the flat tree. Reserved memory needs to be reserved before
| unflatten_device_tree() starts allocating memory. Though I imagine that
| doesn't really matter for UML.

Move set_notify_resume and tracehook_notify_resume into resume_user_mode.h.
While doing that rename tracehook_notify_resume to resume_user_mode_work.

Update all of the places that included tracehook.h for these functions to
include resume_user_mode.h instead.

Update all of the callers of tracehook_notify_resume to call
resume_user_mode_work.
