[ Upstream commit 8ab49526b53d3172d1d8dd03a75c7d1f5bd21239 ]

syzbot found its way in 86_fsgsbase_read_task() and triggered this oops:

This can happen if ptrace() or sigreturn() pokes an LDT selector into FS
or GS for a task with no LDT and something tries to read the base before
a return to usermode notices the bad selector and fixes it.

The fix is to make sure ldt pointer is not NULL.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 07e1d88adaaeab247b300926f78cc3f950dbeda3 ]

On 64-bit kernels ptrace can read the FS/GS base using the register access
APIs (PTRACE_PEEKUSER, etc.) or PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL.

Make both of these mechanisms return the actual FS/GS base.

This will improve debuggability by providing the correct information
to ptracer such as GDB.

I incorrectly merged commit 31a2fbb390fe ("x86/ptrace: Fix possible
spectre-v1 in ptrace_get_debugreg()") when backporting it, as was
graciously pointed out at
https://grsecurity.net/teardown_of_a_failed_linux_lts_spectre_fix.php

Resolve the upstream difference with the stable kernel merge to properly
protect things.

<content type='text'>
commit 31a2fbb390fee4231281b939e1979e810f945415 upstream.

The index to access the threads ptrace_bps is controlled by userspace via
syscall: sys_ptrace(), hence leading to a potential exploitation of the
Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

The index can be controlled from:
    ptrace -&gt; arch_ptrace -&gt; ptrace_get_debugreg.

Fix this by sanitizing the user supplied index before using it access
thread-&gt;ptrace_bps.

<title>x86/asm: Move 'status' from thread_struct to thread_info</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fb9f2d9ab83d9ab1d5286db9432266b353c201c1</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 37a8f7c38339b22b69876d6f5a0ab851565284e3

The TS_COMPAT bit is very hot and is accessed from code paths that mostly
also touch thread_info::flags.  Move it into struct thread_info to improve
cache locality.

The only reason it was in thread_struct is that there was a brief period
during which arch-specific fields were not allowed in struct thread_info.

Linus suggested further changing:

  ti-&gt;status &amp;= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);

to:

  if (unlikely(ti-&gt;status &amp; (TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED)))
          ti-&gt;status &amp;= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);

on the theory that frequently dirtying the cacheline even in pure 64-bit
code that never needs to modify status hurts performance.  That could be a
reasonable followup patch, but I suspect it matters less on top of this
patch.

<id>urn:sha1:17a6e1b8e8e8539f89156643f8c3073f09ec446a</id>
<content type='text'>
In order to introduce new arch_prctls that are not 64 bit only, rename the
existing 64 bit implementation to do_arch_prctl_64(). Also rename the
second argument of that function from 'addr' to 'arg2', because it will no
longer always be an address.

<title>sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt;</title>

<id>urn:sha1:68db0cf10678630d286f4bbbbdfa102951a35faa</id>
<content type='text'>
We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Because sched.h and thread_info.h are a tangled mess, I turned
in_compat_syscall() into a macro.  If we had current_thread_struct()
or similar and we could use it from thread_info.h, then this would
be a bit cleaner.
