kdump: fix exported size of vmcoreinfo note

Right now we seem to be exporting the max data size contained inside
vmcoreinfo note.  But this does not include the size of meta data around
vmcore info data.  Like name of the note and starting and ending elf_note.

I think user space expects total size and that size is put in PT_NOTE elf
header.  Things seem to be fine so far because we are not using vmcoreinfo
note to the maximum capacity.  But as it starts filling up, to capacity,
at some point of time, problem will be visible.

I don't think user space will be broken with this change.  So there is no
need to introduce vmcoreinfo2.  This change is safe and backward
compatible.  More explanation on why this change is safe is below.

vmcoreinfo contains information about kernel which user space needs to
know to do things like filtering.  For example, various kernel config
options or information about size or offset of some data structures etc.
All this information is commmunicated to user space with an ELF note
present in ELF /proc/vmcore file.

Currently vmcoreinfo data size is 4096.  With some elf note meta data
around it, actual size is 4132 bytes.  But we are using barely 25% of that
size.  Rest is empty.  So even if we tell user space that size of ELf note
is 4096 and not 4132, nothing will be broken becase after around 1000
bytes, everything is zero anyway.

But once we start filling up the note to the capacity, and not report the
full size of note, bad things will start happening.  Either some data will
be lost or tools will be confused that they did not fine the zero note at
the end.

So I think this change is safe and should not break existing tools.

kexec: add sysctl to disable kexec_load

For general-purpose (i.e.  distro) kernel builds it makes sense to build
with CONFIG_KEXEC to allow end users to choose what kind of things they
want to do with kexec.  However, in the face of trying to lock down a
system with such a kernel, there needs to be a way to disable kexec_load
(much like module loading can be disabled).  Without this, it is too easy
for the root user to modify kernel memory even when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM
and modules_disabled are set.  With this change, it is still possible to
load an image for use later, then disable kexec_load so the image (or lack
of image) can't be altered.

The intention is for using this in environments where "perfect"
enforcement is hard.  Without a verified boot, along with verified
modules, and along with verified kexec, this is trying to give a system a
better chance to defend itself (or at least grow the window of
discoverability) against attack in the face of a privilege escalation.

In my mind, I consider several boot scenarios:

1) Verified boot of read-only verified root fs loading fd-based
   verification of kexec images.
2) Secure boot of writable root fs loading signed kexec images.
3) Regular boot loading kexec (e.g. kcrash) image early and locking it.
4) Regular boot with no control of kexec image at all.

1 and 2 don't exist yet, but will soon once the verified kexec series has
landed.  4 is the state of things now.  The gap between 2 and 4 is too
large, so this change creates scenario 3, a middle-ground above 4 when 2
and 1 are not possible for a system.

exec:check_unsafe_exec: kill the dead -EAGAIN and clear_in_exec logic

fs_struct->in_exec == T means that this ->fs is used by a single process
(thread group), and one of the treads does do_execve().

To avoid the mt-exec races this code has the following complications:

1. check_unsafe_exec() returns -EBUSY if ->in_exec was
   already set by another thread.

2. do_execve_common() records "clear_in_exec" to ensure
   that the error path can only clear ->in_exec if it was
   set by current.

However, after 9b1bf12d5d51 "signals: move cred_guard_mutex from
task_struct to signal_struct" we do not need these complications:

1. We can't race with our sub-thread, this is called under
   per-process ->cred_guard_mutex. And we can't race with
   another CLONE_FS task, we already checked that this fs
   is not shared.

   We can remove the  dead -EAGAIN logic.

2. "out_unmark:" in do_execve_common() is either called
   under ->cred_guard_mutex, or after de_thread() which
   kills other threads, so we can't race with sub-thread
   which could set ->in_exec. And if ->fs is shared with
   another process ->in_exec should be false anyway.

   We can clear in_exec unconditionally.

This also means that check_unsafe_exec() can be void.

fs/proc: don't use module_init for non-modular core code

PROC_FS is a bool, so this code is either present or absent.  It will
never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is
rather misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to
obviously non-modular code, and that would be ugly at best.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs.  one of the
priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code)
will thus change these registrations from level 6-device to level 5-fs
(i.e.  slightly earlier).  However no observable impact of that small
difference has been observed during testing, or is expected.

Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the
registration of vmcore_init as an initcall.

proc: don't (ab)use ->group_leader in proc_task_readdir() paths

proc_task_readdir() does not really need "leader", first_tid() has to
revalidate it anyway. Just pass proc_pid(inode) to first_tid() instead,
it can do pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) itself and read ->group_leader only if
necessary.

The patch also extracts the "inode is dead" code from
pid_delete_dentry(dentry) into the new trivial helper,
proc_inode_is_dead(inode), proc_task_readdir() uses it to return -ENOENT
if this dir was removed.

This is a bit racy, but the race is very inlikely and the getdents() after
openndir() can see the empty "." + ".." dir only once.

proc: fix the potential use-after-free in first_tid()

proc_task_readdir() verifies that the result of get_proc_task() is
pid_alive() and thus its ->group_leader is fine too.  However this is not
necessarily true after rcu_read_unlock(), we need to recheck this again
after first_tid() does rcu_read_lock().  Otherwise
leader->thread_group.next (used by next_thread()) can be invalid if the
rcu grace period expires in between.

The race is subtle and unlikely, but still it is possible afaics.  To
simplify lets ignore the "likely" case when tid != 0, f_version can be
cleared by proc_task_operations->llseek().

Suppose we have a main thread M and its subthread T.  Suppose that f_pos
== 3, iow first_tid() should return T.  Now suppose that the following
happens between rcu_read_unlock() and rcu_read_lock():

1. T execs and becomes the new leader. This removes M from
    ->thread_group but next_thread(M) is still T.

2. T creates another thread X which does exec as well, T
   goes away.

3. X creates another subthread, this increments nr_threads.

4. first_tid() does next_thread(M) and returns the already
   dead T.

Note also that we need 2.  and 3.  only because of get_nr_threads() check,
and this check was supposed to be optimization only.

hfsplus_file_lookup is set it allows opendir() for plain files.

Also resource fork lookup in HFS+ does not work.  Since it is never
invoked after VFS permission checking.  It will always return with
-EACCES.

When we call opendir() on a file, it does not return NULL.  opendir()
library call is based on open with O_DIRECTORY flag passed and then
layered on top of getdents() system call.  O_DIRECTORY means "refuse to
open if not a directory".

The open() system call in the kernel does a check for: do_sys_open()
-->..--> can_lookup() i.e it only checks inode->i_op->lookup and returns
ENOTDIR if this function pointer is not set.

In OSX, we can open "file/rsrc" to get the resource fork of "file".  This
behavior is emulated inside hfsplus on Linux, which means that to some
degree every file acts like a directory.  That is the reason lookup()
inode operations is supported for files, and it is possible to do a lookup
on this specific name.  As a result of this open succeeds without
returning ENOTDIR for HFS+

Please see the LKML discussion thread on this issue:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=122823343730412&w=2

I tried to test file/rsrc lookup in HFS+ driver and the feature does not
work.  From OSX:

$ touch test
$ echo "1234" > test/..namedfork/rsrc
$ ls -l test..namedfork/rsrc
--rw-r--r-- 1 tuxera staff 5 10 dec 12:59 test/..namedfork/rsrc

[sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ id
uid=1000(sougata) gid=1000(sougata) groups=1000(sougata),5(tty),18(dialout),1001(vboxusers)

[sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ mount
/dev/sdb1 on /mnt/tmp type hfsplus (rw,relatime,umask=0,uid=1000,gid=1000,nls=utf8)

[sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ ls -l test/rsrc
ls: cannot access test/rsrc: Permission denied

According to this LKML thread it is expected behavior.

http://marc.info/?t=121139033800008&r=1&w=4

I guess now that permission checking happens in vfs generic_permission() ?
So it turns out that even though the lookup() inode_operation exists for
HFS+ files.  It cannot really get invoked ?.  So if we can disable this
feature to make opendir() work for HFS+.

fs/nilfs2: fix integer overflow in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy()

The local variable 'pos' in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function can overflow if
a large number was passed to argv->v_index from userspace and the sum of
argv->v_index and argv->v_nmembs exceeds the maximum value of __u64 type
integer (= ~(__u64)0 = 18446744073709551615).

Here, argv->v_index is a 64-bit width argument to specify the start
position of target data items (such as segment number, checkpoint number,
or virtual block address of nilfs), and argv->v_nmembs gives the total
number of the items that userland programs (such as lssu, lscp, or
cleanerd) want to get information about, which also gives the maximum
element count of argv->v_base[] array.

nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy() calls dofunc() repeatedly and increments the
position variable 'pos' at the end of each iteration if dofunc() itself
didn't update 'pos':

if (pos == ppos)
pos += n;

This patch prevents the overflow here by rejecting pairs of a start
position (argv->v_index) and a total count (argv->v_nmembs) which leads to
the overflow.

rtc: max8907: weekday encoding fixes

The current MAX8907 driver has two issues related to weekday value
handling:

1)

The HW WEEKDAY register has range 0..6 rather than 1..7 as documented.
Note that I validated the actual HW range by observing the HW register
roll from 6->0 rather than 6->7->1 as would otherwise be expected.

This matches Linux's tm_wday range of 0..6.

When the CMOS RAM content is lost, the date returned from the device is
2007-01-01 00:00:00, which is a Monday.  The WEEKDAY register reads 1 in
this case.  This matches the numbering in Linux's tm_wday field.

Hence we should write Linux's tm_wday value to the register without
modifying it.  Hence, remove the +1/-1 calculations for WEEKDAY/tm_wday.

2)

There's no need to make alarms match on the WEEKDAY register, since the
other fields together uniquely define the alarm date/time.  Ignoring the
WEEKDAY value in the match isolates the driver from any incorrect value in
the current time copy of the WEEKDAY register.

Each change individually, or both together, solves an issue that I
observed; "hwclock -r" would time out waiting for its alarm to fire if the
CMOS RAM content had been lost, and hence the WEEKDAY register value
mismatched what the driver expected it to be.  "hwclock -w" would solve
this by over-writing the HW default WEEKDAY register value with what the
driver expected.

rtc: honor device tree /alias entries when assigning IDs

Assign RTC device IDs based on device tree /aliases entries if present,
falling back to the existing numbering scheme if there is no /aliases
entry (which includes when the system isn't booted using DT), or there is
a numbering conflict.

This is useful in systems with multiple RTC devices, to ensure that the
best RTC device is selected as /dev/rtc0, which provides the overall
system time.

For example, Tegra has an on-SoC RTC that is not battery backed, typically
coupled with an off-SoC RTC that is battery backed. Only the latter is
useful for populating the system time, yet the former is useful e.g. for
wakeup timing, since the time is not lost when the system is sleeps.

autofs: fix symlinks aren't checked for expiry

The autofs4 module doesn't consider symlinks for expire as it did in the
older autofs v3 module (so it's actually a long standing regression).

The user space daemon has focused on the use of bind mounts instead of
symlinks for a long time now and that's why this has not been noticed.
But with the future addition of amd map parsing to automount(8), not to
mention amd itself (of am-utils), symlink expiry will be needed.

The direct and offset mount types can't be symlinks and the tree mounts of
version 4 were always real mounts so only indirect mounts need expire
symlinks.

Since the current users of the autofs4 module haven't reported this as a
problem to date this patch probably isn't a candidate for backport to
stable.

autofs4: translate pids to the right namespace for the daemon

The PID and the TGID of the process triggering the mount are sent to the
daemon. Currently the global pid values are sent (ones valid in the
initial pid namespace) but this is wrong if the autofs daemon itself is
not running in the initial pid namespace.

So send the pid values that are valid in the namespace of the autofs
daemon.

The namespace to use is taken from the oz_pgrp pid pointer, which was
set at mount time to the mounting process' pid namespace.

If the pid translation fails (the triggering process is in an unrelated
pid namespace) then the automount fails with ENOENT.

autofs4: allow autofs to work outside the initial PID namespace

Enable autofs4 to work in a "container".  oz_pgrp is converted from
pid_t to struct pid and this is stored at mount time based on the
"pgrp=" option or if the option is missing then the current pgrp.

The "pgrp=" option is interpreted in the PID namespace of the current
process.  This option is flawed in that it doesn't carry the namespace
information, so it should be deprecated.  AFAICS the autofs daemon
always sends the current pgrp, which is the default anyway.

The oz_pgrp is also set from the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SETPIPEFD_CMD ioctl.
This ioctl sets oz_pgrp to the current pgrp.  It is not allowed to
change the pid namespace.

oz_pgrp is used mainly to determine whether the process traversing the
autofs mount tree is the autofs daemon itself or not.  This function now
compares the pid pointers instead of the pid_t values.

One other use of oz_pgrp is in autofs4_show_options.  There is shows the
virtual pid number (i.e.  the one that is valid inside the PID namespace
of the calling process)

For debugging printk convert oz_pgrp to the value in the initial pid
namespace.

checkpatch: improve space before tab --fix option

This test should remove all the spaces before a tab not just one space.

Substitute a tab for each 8 space block before a tab and remove less than
8 spaces before a tab.

This SPACE_BEFORE_TAB test is done after CODE_INDENT.

If there are spaces used at the beginning of a line that should be
converted to tabs, please make sure that the CODE_INDENT test and
conversion is done before this SPACE_BEFORE_TAB test and conversion.

checkpatch: attempt to find missing switch/case break;

switch case statements missing a break statement are an unfortunately
common error.

e.g.:
  commit 4a2c94c9b6c0 ("HID: kye: Add report fixup for Genius Manticore Keyboard")

case blocks should end in a break/return/goto/continue.

If a fall-through is used, it should have a comment showing that it is
intentional.  Ideally that comment should be something like:
"/* fall-through */"

Add a test to look for missing break statements.

This looks only at the context lines before an inserted case so it's
possible to have false positives when the context contains a close brace
and the break is before the brace and not part of the patch context.

Looking at recent patches, this is a pretty rare occurrence.  The normal
kernel style uses a break as the last line of the previous block.

firmware/dmi_scan: generalize for use by other archs

This patch makes a couple of changes to the SMBIOS/DMI scanning
code so it can be used on other archs (such as ARM and arm64):
(a) wrap the calls to ioremap()/iounmap(), this allows the use of a
flavor of ioremap() more suitable for random unaligned access;
(b) allow the non-EFI fallback probe into hardcoded physical address
0xF0000 to be disabled.

test: check copy_to/from_user boundary validation

To help avoid an architecture failing to correctly check kernel/user
boundaries when handling copy_to_user, copy_from_user, put_user, or
get_user, perform some simple tests and fail to load if any of them
behave unexpectedly.

Specifically, this is to make sure there is a way to notice if things
like what was fixed in commit 8404663f81d2 ("ARM: 7527/1: uaccess:
explicitly check __user pointer when !CPU_USE_DOMAINS") ever regresses
again, for any architecture.

Additionally, adds new "user" selftest target, which loads this module.

test: add minimal module for verification testing

This is a pair of test modules I'd like to see in the tree.  Instead of
putting these in lkdtm, where I've been adding various tests that trigger
crashes, these don't make sense there since they need to be either
distinctly separate, or their pass/fail state don't need to crash the
machine.

These live in lib/ for now, along with a few other in-kernel test modules,
and use the slightly more common "test_" naming convention, instead of
"test-".  We should likely standardize on the former:

$ find . -name 'test_*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l
4
$ find . -name 'test-*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l
2

The first is entirely a no-op module, designed to allow simple testing of
the module loading and verification interface.  It's useful to have a
module that has no other uses or dependencies so it can be reliably used
for just testing module loading and verification.

The second is a module that exercises the user memory access functions, in
an effort to make sure that we can quickly catch any regressions in
boundary checking (e.g.  like what was recently fixed on ARM).

This patch (of 2):

When doing module loading verification tests (for example, with module
signing, or LSM hooks), it is very handy to have a module that can be
built on all systems under test, isn't auto-loaded at boot, and has no
device or similar dependencies.  This creates the "test_module.ko" module
for that purpose, which only reports its load and unload to printk.

get_maintainer: add commit author information to --rolestats

get_maintainer currently uses "Signed-off-by" style lines to find
interested parties to send patches to when the MAINTAINERS file does not
have a specific section entry with a matching file pattern.

Add statistics for commit authors and lines added and deleted to the
information provided by --rolestats.

These statistics are also emitted whenever --rolestats and --git are
selected even when there is a specified maintainer.

This can have the effect of expanding the number of people that are shown
as possible "maintainers" of a particular file because "authors",
"added_lines", and "removed_lines" are also used as criterion for the
--max-maintainers option separate from the "commit_signers".

The first "--git-max-maintainers" values of each criterion
are emitted. Any "ties" are not shown.

For example: (forcedeth does not have a named maintainer)
