<title>um: Fix stack pointer alignment</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b71f114670221c0175ea1c8484c02dff65d13a82</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 558f9b2f94dbd2d5c5c8292aa13e081cc11ea7d9 ]

GCC assumes that stack is aligned to 16-byte on call sites [1].
Since GCC 8, GCC began using 16-byte aligned SSE instructions to
implement assignments to structs on stack. When
CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE is enabled, this affects
os-Linux/sigio.c, write_sigio_thread:

  struct pollfds *fds, tmp;
  tmp = current_poll;

Note that struct pollfds is exactly 16 bytes in size.
GCC 8+ generates assembly similar to:

  movdqa (%rdi),%xmm0
  movaps %xmm0,-0x50(%rbp)

This is an issue, because movaps will #GP if -0x50(%rbp) is not
aligned to 16 bytes [2], and how rbp gets assigned to is via glibc
clone thread_start, then function prologue, going though execution
trace similar to (showing only relevant instructions):

  sub    $0x10,%rsi
  mov    %rcx,0x8(%rsi)
  mov    %rdi,(%rsi)
  syscall
  pop    %rax
  pop    %rdi
  callq  *%rax
  push   %rbp
  mov    %rsp,%rbp

The stack pointer always points to the topmost element on stack,
rather then the space right above the topmost. On push, the
pointer decrements first before writing to the memory pointed to
by it. Therefore, there is no need to have the stack pointer
pointer always point to valid memory unless the stack is poped;
so the `- sizeof(void *)` in the code is unnecessary.

On the other hand, glibc reserves the 16 bytes it needs on stack
and pops itself, so by the call instruction the stack pointer
is exactly the caller-supplied sp. It then push the 16 bytes of
the return address and the saved stack pointer, so the base
pointer will be 16-byte aligned if and only if the caller
supplied sp is 16-byte aligned. Therefore, the caller must supply
a 16-byte aligned pointer, which `stack + UM_KERN_PAGE_SIZE`
already satisfies.

On a side note, musl is unaffected by this issue because it forces
16 byte alignment via `and $-16,%rsi` in its clone wrapper.
Similarly, glibc i386 is also unaffected because it has
`andl $0xfffffff0, %ecx`.

To reproduce this bug, enable CONFIG_UML_RTC and
CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE. uml_rtc will call
add_sigio_fd which will then cause write_sigio_thread to either go
into segfault loop or panic with "Segfault with no mm".

Similarly, signal stacks will be aligned by the host kernel upon
signal delivery. `- sizeof(void *)` to sigaltstack is
unconventional and extraneous.

On a related note, initialization of longjmp buffers do require
`- sizeof(void *)`. This is to account for the return address
that would have been pushed to the stack at the call site.

The reason for uml to respect 16-byte alignment, rather than
telling GCC to assume 8-byte alignment like the host kernel since
commit d9b0cde91c60 ("x86-64, gcc: Use
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=3 if supported"), is because uml links
against libc. There is no reason to assume libc is also compiled
with that flag and assumes 8-byte alignment rather than 16-byte.

The section "19) Editor modelines and other cruft" in
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst clearly says, "Do not include any
of these in source files."

I recently receive a patch to explicitly add a new one.

Let's do treewide cleanups, otherwise some people follow the existing code
and attempt to upstream their favoriate editor setups.

It is even nicer if scripts/checkpatch.pl can check it.

If we like to impose coding style in an editor-independent manner, I think
editorconfig (patch [1]) is a saner solution.

Pull Landlock LSM from James Morris:
 "Add Landlock, a new LSM from Mickaël Salaün.

  Briefly, Landlock provides for unprivileged application sandboxing.

  From Mickaël's cover letter:
    "The goal of Landlock is to enable to restrict ambient rights (e.g.
     global filesystem access) for a set of processes. Because Landlock
     is a stackable LSM [1], it makes possible to create safe security
     sandboxes as new security layers in addition to the existing
     system-wide access-controls. This kind of sandbox is expected to
     help mitigate the security impact of bugs or unexpected/malicious
     behaviors in user-space applications. Landlock empowers any
     process, including unprivileged ones, to securely restrict
     themselves.

     Landlock is inspired by seccomp-bpf but instead of filtering
     syscalls and their raw arguments, a Landlock rule can restrict the
     use of kernel objects like file hierarchies, according to the
     kernel semantic. Landlock also takes inspiration from other OS
     sandbox mechanisms: XNU Sandbox, FreeBSD Capsicum or OpenBSD
     Pledge/Unveil.

     In this current form, Landlock misses some access-control features.
     This enables to minimize this patch series and ease review. This
     series still addresses multiple use cases, especially with the
     combined use of seccomp-bpf: applications with built-in sandboxing,
     init systems, security sandbox tools and security-oriented APIs [2]"

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Stop synchronizing kernel log buffer readers by logbuf_lock. As a
   result, the access to the buffer is fully lockless now.

   Note that printk() itself still uses locks because it tries to flush
   the messages to the console immediately. Also the per-CPU temporary
   buffers are still there because they prevent infinite recursion and
   serialize backtraces from NMI. All this is going to change in the
   future.

 - kmsg_dump API rework and cleanup as a side effect of the logbuf_lock
   removal.

 - Make bstr_printf() aware that %pf and %pF formats could deference the
   given pointer.

 - Show also page flags by %pGp format.

 - Clarify the documentation for plain pointer printing.

 - Do not show no_hash_pointers warning multiple times.

 - Update Senozhatsky email address.

 - Some clean up.

Using Landlock objects and ruleset, it is possible to tag inodes
according to a process's domain.  To enable an unprivileged process to
express a file hierarchy, it first needs to open a directory (or a file)
and pass this file descriptor to the kernel through
landlock_add_rule(2).  When checking if a file access request is
allowed, we walk from the requested dentry to the real root, following
the different mount layers.  The access to each "tagged" inodes are
collected according to their rule layer level, and ANDed to create
access to the requested file hierarchy.  This makes possible to identify
a lot of files without tagging every inodes nor modifying the
filesystem, while still following the view and understanding the user
has from the filesystem.

Add a new ARCH_EPHEMERAL_INODES for UML because it currently does not
keep the same struct inodes for the same inodes whereas these inodes are
in use.

This commit adds a minimal set of supported filesystem access-control
which doesn't enable to restrict all file-related actions.  This is the
result of multiple discussions to minimize the code of Landlock to ease
review.  Thanks to the Landlock design, extending this access-control
without breaking user space will not be a problem.  Moreover, seccomp
filters can be used to restrict the use of syscall families which may
not be currently handled by Landlock.
