It can be useful to the interpreter to know which flags are in use.
For instance, knowing if the preserve-argv[0] is in use would
allow to skip the pathname argument.
This patch uses an unused auxiliary vector, AT_FLAGS, to add a
flag to inform interpreter if the preserve-argv[0] is enabled.

Preparations to doing i386 compat elf_prstatus sanely - rather than duplicating
the beginning of compat_elf_prstatus, take these fields into a separate
structure (compat_elf_prstatus_common), so that it could be reused. Due to
the incestous relationship between binfmt_elf.c and compat_binfmt_elf.c we
need the same shape change done to native struct elf_prstatus, gathering the
fields prior to pr_reg into a new structure (struct elf_prstatus_common).
Fortunately, offset of pr_reg is always a multiple of 16 with no padding
right before it, so it's possible to turn all the stuff prior to it into
a single member without disturbing the layout.
[build fix from Geert Uytterhoeven folded in]
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
On 64bit architectures that support 32bit processes there are
two possible layouts for NT_PRSTATUS note in ELF coredumps.
For one thing, several fields are 64bit for native processes
and 32bit for compat ones (pr_sigpend, etc.). For another,
the register dump is obviously different - the size and number
of registers are not going to be the same for 32bit and 64bit
variants of processor.
Usually that's handled by having two structures - elf_prstatus
for native layout and compat_elf_prstatus for 32bit one.
32bit processes are handled by fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c, which
defines a macro called 'elf_prstatus' that expands to compat_elf_prstatus.
Then it includes fs/binfmt_elf.c, which makes all references to
struct elf_prstatus to be textually replaced with struct
compat_elf_prstatus. Ugly and somewhat brittle, but it works.
However, amd64 is worse - there are _three_ possible layouts.
One for native 64bit processes, another for i386 (32bit) processes
and yet another for x32 (32bit address space with full 64bit
registers).
Both i386 and x32 processes are handled by fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c,
with usual compat_binfmt_elf.c trickery. However, the layouts
for i386 and x32 are not identical - they have the common beginning,
but the register dump part (pr_reg) is bigger on x32. Worse, pr_reg
is not the last field - it's followed by int pr_fpvalid, so that
field ends up at different offsets for i386 and x32 layouts.
Fortunately, there's not much code that cares about any of that -
it's all encapsulated in fill_thread_core_info(). Since x32
variant is bigger, we define compat_elf_prstatus to match that
layout. That way i386 processes have enough space to fit
their layout into.
Moreover, since these layouts are identical prior to pr_reg,
we don't need to distinguish x32 and i386 cases when we are
setting the fields prior to pr_reg.
Filling pr_reg itself is done by calling ->get() method of
appropriate regset, and that method knows what layout (and size)
to use.
We do need to distinguish x32 and i386 cases only for two
things: setting ->pr_fpvalid (offset differs for x32 and
i386) and choosing the right size for our note.
The way it's done is Not Nice, for the lack of more accurate
printable description. There are two macros (PRSTATUS_SIZE and
SET_PR_FPVALID), that default essentially to sizeof(struct elf_prstatus)
and (S)->pr_fpvalid = 1. On x86 asm/compat.h provides its own
variants.
Unfortunately, quite a few things go wrong there:
* PRSTATUS_SIZE doesn't use the normal test for process
being an x32 one; it compares the size reported by regset with
the size of pr_reg.
* it hardcodes the sizes of x32 and i386 variants (296 and 144
resp.), so if some change in includes leads to asm/compat.h pulled
in by fs/binfmt_elf.c we are in trouble - it will end up using
the size of x32 variant for 64bit processes.
* it's in the wrong place; asm/compat.h couldn't define
the structure for i386 layout, since it lacks quite a few types
needed for it. Hardcoded sizes are largely due to that.
The proper fix would be to have an explicitly defined i386 variant
of structure and have PRSTATUS_SIZE/SET_PR_FPVALID check for
TIF_X32 to choose the variant that should be used. Unfortunately,
that requires some manipulations of headers; we'll do that later
in the series, but for now let's go with the minimal variant -
rename PRSTATUS_SIZE in asm/compat.h to COMPAT_PRSTATUS_SIZE,
have fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c define PRSTATUS_SIZE to COMPAT_PRSTATUS_SIZE
and use the normal TIF_X32 check in that macro. The size of i386 variant
is kept hardcoded for now. Similar story for SET_PR_FPVALID.

Oleg Nesterov recently asked[1] why is there an unshare_files in
do_coredump. After digging through all of the callers of lookup_fd it
turns out that it is
arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/coredump.c:coredump_next_context
that needs the unshare_files in do_coredump.
Looking at the history[2] this code was also the only piece of coredump code
that required the unshare_files when the unshare_files was added.
Looking at that code it turns out that cell is also the only
architecture that implements elf_coredump_extra_notes_size and
elf_coredump_extra_notes_write.
I looked at the gdb repo[3] support for cell has been removed[4] in binutils
2.34. Geoff Levand reports he is still getting questions on how to
run modern kernels on the PS3, from people using 3rd party firmware so
this code is not dead. According to Wikipedia the last PS3 shipped in
Japan sometime in 2017. So it will probably be a little while before
everyone's hardware dies.
Add some comments briefly documenting the coredump code that exists
only to support cell spufs to make it easier to understand the
coredump code. Eventually the hardware will be dead, or their won't
be userspace tools, or the coredump code will be refactored and it
will be too difficult to update a dead architecture and these comments
make it easy to tell where to pull to remove cell spufs support.

create_elf_tables() runs after setup_new_exec(), so other tasks can
already access our new mm and do things like process_madvise() on it. (At
the time I'm writing this commit, process_madvise() is not in mainline
yet, but has been in akpm's tree for some time.)
While I believe that there are currently no APIs that would actually allow
another process to mess up our VMA tree (process_madvise() is limited to
MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT, and uring and userfaultfd cannot reach an mm
under which no syscalls have been executed yet), this seems like an
accident waiting to happen.
Let's make sure that we always take the mmap lock around GUP paths as long
as another process might be able to see the mm.
(Yes, this diff looks suspicious because we drop the lock before doing
anything with `vma`, but that's because we actually don't do anything with
it apart from the NULL check.)

In both binfmt_elf and binfmt_elf_fdpic, use a new helper
dump_vma_snapshot() to take a snapshot of the VMA list (including the gate
VMA, if we have one) while protected by the mmap_lock, and then use that
snapshot instead of walking the VMA list without locking.
An alternative approach would be to keep the mmap_lock held across the
entire core dumping operation; however, keeping the mmap_lock locked while
we may be blocked for an unbounded amount of time (e.g. because we're
dumping to a FUSE filesystem or so) isn't really optimal; the mmap_lock
blocks things like the ->release handler of userfaultfd, and we don't
really want critical system daemons to grind to a halt just because
someone "gifted" them SCM_RIGHTS to an eternally-locked userfaultfd, or
something like that.
Since both the normal ELF code and the FDPIC ELF code need this
functionality (and if any other binfmt wants to add coredump support in
the future, they'd probably need it, too), implement this with a common
helper in fs/coredump.c.
A downside of this approach is that we now need a bigger amount of kernel
memory per userspace VMA in the normal ELF case, and that we need O(n)
kernel memory in the FDPIC ELF case at all; but 40 bytes per VMA shouldn't
be terribly bad.
There currently is a data race between stack expansion and anything that
reads ->vm_start or ->vm_end under the mmap_lock held in read mode; to
mitigate that for core dumping, take the mmap_lock in write mode when
taking a snapshot of the VMA hierarchy. (If we only took the mmap_lock in
read mode, we could end up with a corrupted core dump if someone does
get_user_pages_remote() concurrently. Not really a major problem, but
taking the mmap_lock either way works here, so we might as well avoid the
issue.) (This doesn't do anything about the existing data races with stack
expansion in other mm code.)

At the moment, the binfmt_elf and binfmt_elf_fdpic code have slightly
different code to figure out which VMAs should be dumped, and if so,
whether the dump should contain the entire VMA or just its first page.
Eliminate duplicate code by reworking the binfmt_elf version into a
generic core dumping helper in coredump.c.
As part of that, change the heuristic for detecting executable/library
header pages to check whether the inode is executable instead of looking
at the file mode.
This is less problematic in terms of locking because it lets us avoid
get_user() under the mmap_sem. (And arguably it looks nicer and makes
more sense in generic code.)
Adjust a little bit based on the binfmt_elf_fdpic version: ->anon_vma is
only meaningful under CONFIG_MMU, otherwise we have to assume that the VMA
has been written to.

Patch series "Selecting Load Addresses According to p_align", v3.
The current ELF loading mechancism provides page-aligned mappings. This
can lead to the program being loaded in a way unsuitable for file-backed,
transparent huge pages when handling PIE executables.
While specifying -z,max-page-size=0x200000 to the linker will generate
suitably aligned segments for huge pages on x86_64, the executable needs
to be loaded at a suitably aligned address as well. This alignment
requires the binary's cooperation, as distinct segments need to be
appropriately paddded to be eligible for THP.
For binaries built with increased alignment, this limits the number of
bits usable for ASLR, but provides some randomization over using fixed
load addresses/non-PIE binaries.

Two new helpers: given a process and regset, dump into a buffer.
regset_get() takes a buffer and size, regset_get_alloc() takes size
and allocates a buffer.
Return value in both cases is the amount of data actually dumped in
case of success or -E... on error.
In both cases the size is capped by regset->n * regset->size, so
->get() is called with offset 0 and size no more than what regset
expects.
binfmt_elf.c callers of ->get() are switched to using those; the other
caller (copy_regset_to_user()) will need some preparations to switch.

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
"Last cycle for the Nth time I ran into bugs and quality of
implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily be
fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been digging
into exec and cleanup up what I can.
I don't think I have exec sorted out enough to fix the issues I
started with but I have made some headway this cycle with 4 sets of
changes.
- promised cleanups after introducing exec_update_mutex
- trivial cleanups for exec
- control flow simplifications
- remove the recomputation of bprm->cred
The net result is code that is a bit easier to understand and work
with and a decrease in the number of lines of code (if you don't count
the added tests)"

Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target

Most of the support for passing the file descriptor of an executable
to an interpreter already lives in the generic code and in binfmt_elf.
Rework the fields in binfmt_elf that deal with executable file
descriptor passing to make executable file descriptor passing a first
class concept.
Move the fd_install from binfmt_misc into begin_new_exec after the new
creds have been installed. This means that accessing the file through
/proc/<pid>/fd/N is able to see the creds for the new executable
before allowing access to the new executables files.
Performing the install of the executables file descriptor after
the point of no return also means that nothing special needs to
be done on error. The exiting of the process will close all
of it's open files.
Move the would_dump from binfmt_misc into begin_new_exec right
after would_dump is called on the bprm->file. This makes it
obvious this case exists and that no nesting of bprm->file is
currently supported.
In binfmt_misc the movement of fd_install into generic code means
that it's special error exit path is no longer needed.

The code in binfmt_elf.c is differnt from the rest of the code that
processes siginfo, as it sends siginfo from a kernel buffer to a file
rather than from kernel memory to userspace buffers. To remove it's
use of set_fs the code needs some different siginfo helpers.
Add the helper copy_siginfo_to_external to copy from the kernel's
internal siginfo layout to a buffer in the siginfo layout that
userspace expects.
Modify fill_siginfo_note to use copy_siginfo_to_external instead of
set_fs and copy_siginfo_to_user.
Update compat_binfmt_elf.c to use the previously added
copy_siginfo_to_external32 to handle the compat case.

An arch may want to tweak the mmap prot flags for an
ELFexecutable's initial mappings. For example, arm64 is going to
need to add PROT_BTI for executable pages in an ELF process whose
executable is marked as using Branch Target Identification (an
ARMv8.5-A control flow integrity feature).
So that this can be done in a generic way, add a hook
arch_elf_adjust_prot() to modify the prot flags as desired: arches
can select CONFIG_HAVE_ELF_PROT and implement their own backend
where necessary.
By default, leave the prot flags unchanged.

We store elapsed time for a crashed process in struct elf_prstatus using
'timeval' structures. Once glibc starts using 64-bit time_t, this becomes
incompatible with the kernel's idea of timeval since the structure layout
no longer matches on 32-bit architectures.
This changes the definition of the elf_prstatus structure to use
__kernel_old_timeval instead, which is hardcoded to the currently used
binary layout. There is no risk of overflow in y2038 though, because
the time values are all relative times, and can store up to 68 years
of process elapsed time.
There is a risk of applications breaking at build time when they
use the new kernel headers and expect the type to be exactly 'timeval'
rather than a structure that has the same fields as before. Those
applications have to be modified to deal with 64-bit time_t anyway.
