e4da89d02f seccomp: ignore secure_computing return values
This change is inspired by
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/14
which fixes the build warnings for arches that don't support
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER.

In particular, there is no requirement for the return value of
secure_computing() to be checked unless the architecture supports
seccomp filter.  Instead of silencing the warnings with (void)
a new static inline is added to encode the expected behavior
in a compiler and human friendly way.

v2: - cleans things up with a static inline
    - removes sfr's signed-off-by since it is a different approach
v1: - matches sfr's original change

c6cfbeb402 x86: Enable HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER
Enable support for seccomp filter on x86:
- syscall_get_arch()
- syscall_get_arguments()
- syscall_rollback()
- syscall_set_return_value()
- SIGSYS siginfo_t support
- secure_computing is called from a ptrace_event()-safe context
- secure_computing return value is checked (see below).

SECCOMP_RET_TRACE and SECCOMP_RET_TRAP may result in seccomp needing to
skip a system call without killing the process.  This is done by
returning a non-zero (-1) value from secure_computing.  This change
makes x86 respect that return value.

To ensure that minimal kernel code is exposed, a non-zero return value
results in an immediate return to user space (with an invalid syscall
number).

fb0fadf9b2 ptrace,seccomp: Add PTRACE_SECCOMP support
This change adds support for a new ptrace option, PTRACE_O_TRACESECCOMP,
and a new return value for seccomp BPF programs, SECCOMP_RET_TRACE.

When a tracer specifies the PTRACE_O_TRACESECCOMP ptrace option, the
tracer will be notified, via PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP, for any syscall that
results in a BPF program returning SECCOMP_RET_TRACE.  The 16-bit
SECCOMP_RET_DATA mask of the BPF program return value will be passed as
the ptrace_message and may be retrieved using PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG.

If the subordinate process is not using seccomp filter, then no
system call notifications will occur even if the option is specified.

If there is no tracer with PTRACE_O_TRACESECCOMP when SECCOMP_RET_TRACE
is returned, the system call will not be executed and an -ENOSYS errno
will be returned to userspace.

This change adds a dependency on the system call slow path.  Any future
efforts to use the system call fast path for seccomp filter will need to
address this restriction.

bb6ea4301a seccomp: Add SECCOMP_RET_TRAP
Adds a new return value to seccomp filters that triggers a SIGSYS to be
delivered with the new SYS_SECCOMP si_code.

This allows in-process system call emulation, including just specifying
an errno or cleanly dumping core, rather than just dying.

a0727e8ce5 signal, x86: add SIGSYS info and make it synchronous.
This change enables SIGSYS, defines _sigfields._sigsys, and adds
x86 (compat) arch support.  _sigsys defines fields which allow
a signal handler to receive the triggering system call number,
the relevant AUDIT_ARCH_* value for that number, and the address
of the callsite.

SIGSYS is added to the SYNCHRONOUS_MASK because it is desirable for it
to have setup_frame() called for it. The goal is to ensure that
ucontext_t reflects the machine state from the time-of-syscall and not
from another signal handler.

The first consumer of SIGSYS would be seccomp filter.  In particular,
a filter program could specify a new return value, SECCOMP_RET_TRAP,
which would result in the system call being denied and the calling
thread signaled.  This also means that implementing arch-specific
support can be dependent upon HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER.

acf3b2c71e seccomp: add SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO
This change adds the SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO as a valid return value from a
seccomp filter.  Additionally, it makes the first use of the lower
16-bits for storing a filter-supplied errno.  16-bits is more than
enough for the errno-base.h calls.

Returning errors instead of immediately terminating processes that
violate seccomp policy allow for broader use of this functionality
for kernel attack surface reduction.  For example, a linux container
could maintain a whitelist of pre-existing system calls but drop
all new ones with errnos.  This would keep a logically static attack
surface while providing errnos that may allow for graceful failure
without the downside of do_exit() on a bad call.

This change also changes the signature of __secure_computing.  It
appears the only direct caller is the arm entry code and it clobbers
any possible return value (register) immediately.

e2cfabdfd0 seccomp: add system call filtering using BPF
[This patch depends on luto@mit.edu's no_new_privs patch:
   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/30/264
 The whole series including Andrew's patches can be found here:
   https://github.com/redpig/linux/tree/seccomp
 Complete diff here:
   https://github.com/redpig/linux/compare/1dc65fed...seccomp
]

This patch adds support for seccomp mode 2.  Mode 2 introduces the
ability for unprivileged processes to install system call filtering
policy expressed in terms of a Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) program.
This program will be evaluated in the kernel for each system call
the task makes and computes a result based on data in the format
of struct seccomp_data.

A filter program may be installed by calling:
  struct sock_fprog fprog = { ... };
  ...
  prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP, SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER, &fprog);

The return value of the filter program determines if the system call is
allowed to proceed or denied.  If the first filter program installed
allows prctl(2) calls, then the above call may be made repeatedly
by a task to further reduce its access to the kernel.  All attached
programs must be evaluated before a system call will be allowed to
proceed.

Filter programs will be inherited across fork/clone and execve.
However, if the task attaching the filter is unprivileged
(!CAP_SYS_ADMIN) the no_new_privs bit will be set on the task.  This
ensures that unprivileged tasks cannot attach filters that affect
privileged tasks (e.g., setuid binary).

There are a number of benefits to this approach. A few of which are
as follows:
- BPF has been exposed to userland for a long time
- BPF optimization (and JIT'ing) are well understood
- Userland already knows its ABI: system call numbers and desired
  arguments
- No time-of-check-time-of-use vulnerable data accesses are possible.
- system call arguments are loaded on access only to minimize copying
  required for system call policy decisions.

Mode 2 support is restricted to architectures that enable
HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER.  In this patch, the primary dependency is on
syscall_get_arguments().  The full desired scope of this feature will
add a few minor additional requirements expressed later in this series.
Based on discussion, SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO and SECCOMP_RET_TRACE seem to be
the desired additional functionality.

No architectures are enabled in this patch.

For audit's use, the value can generally be hard-coded at the

entry/exit, this makes that information available.  seccomp_filter is
the first planned consumer and, as such, the comment indicates a tie to

after skb_chk_filter.

The code change is guarded by CONFIG_SECCOMP_FILTER which is added,
along with the seccomp_bpf_load() function later in this series.

This is based on http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/2/141

c29bceb396 Fix execve behavior apparmor for PR_{GET,SET}_NO_NEW_PRIVS
Add support for AppArmor to explicitly fail requested domain transitions
if NO_NEW_PRIVS is set and the task is not unconfined.

Transitions from unconfined are still allowed because this always results
in a reduction of privileges.

259e5e6c75 Add PR_{GET,SET}_NO_NEW_PRIVS to prevent execve from granting privs
With this change, calling
  prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, 1, 0, 0, 0)
disables privilege granting operations at execve-time.  For example, a
process will not be able to execute a setuid binary to change their uid
or gid if this bit is set.  The same is true for file capabilities.

Additionally, LSM_UNSAFE_NO_NEW_PRIVS is defined to ensure that
LSMs respect the requested behavior.

To determine if the NO_NEW_PRIVS bit is set, a task may call
  prctl(PR_GET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, 0, 0, 0, 0);
It returns 1 if set and 0 if it is not set. If any of the arguments are
non-zero, it will return -1 and set errno to -EINVAL.
(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS behaves similarly.)

This functionality is desired for the proposed seccomp filter patch
series.  By using PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, it allows a task to modify the
system call behavior for itself and its child tasks without being
able to impact the behavior of a more privileged task.

Another potential use is making certain privileged operations
unprivileged.  For example, chroot may be considered "safe" if it cannot
affect privileged tasks.

Note, this patch causes execve to fail when PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS is
set and AppArmor is in use.  It is fixed in a subsequent patch.

e1c4038282 tcm_fc: Add abort flag for gracefully handling exchange timeout
Add abort flag and use it to terminate processing when an exchange
is timed out or is reset. The abort flag is used in place of the
transport_generic_free_cmd function call in the reset and timeout
cases, because calling that function in that context would free
memory that was in use. The aborted flag allows the lifetime to
be managed in a more normal way, while truncating the processing.

This change eliminates a source of memory corruption which
manifested in a variety of ugly ways.

f68e556e23 Make the "word-at-a-time" helper functions more commonly usable
I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these
same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses
them.  This is preparation for that.

This moves them into an architecture-specific header file.  It's
architecture-specific for two reasons:

 - some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific
   implementations.  Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in
   the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's
   likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation
   is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast
   bit count instruction, for example.

 - I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing
   around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in
   particular the actual unaligned accesses).  So we're likely to have
   more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using
   this.

   (and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using
   this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the
   right thing to do, of course)

    socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we
    cannot touch it after queueing it like that.

    Fixes from Eric Dumazet.

13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
    immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
    to transmit the PPP frame.

    But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
    TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.

    Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
    particular things like the equalizers.  Well behaved devices should
    only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
    when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.

    David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
    it's downstream can't take data any more.

14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver
    changes, re-add.  From Marc Kleine-Budde.

15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen.

16) Descriptor writeback fixes in e1000e from Matthew Vick.

f09d8432e3 xen/pcifront: avoid pci_frontend_enable_msix() falsely returning success
The original XenoLinux code has always had things this way, and for
compatibility reasons (in particular with a subsequent pciback
adjustment) upstream Linux should behave the same way (allowing for two
distinct error indications to be returned by the backend).

0ee46eca04 xen/pciback: fix XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msix result
Prior to 2.6.19 and as of 2.6.31, pci_enable_msix() can return a
positive value to indicate the number of vectors (less than the amount
requested) that can be set up for a given device. Returning this as an
operation value (secondary result) is fine, but (primary) operation
results are expected to be negative (error) or zero (success) according
to the protocol. With the frontend fixed to match the XenoLinux
behavior, the backend can now validly return zero (success) here,
passing the upper limit on the number of vectors in op->value.

The reason we are dying is b/c the call acpi_get_override_irq() is used,
which returns the polarity and trigger for the IRQs. That function calls
mp_find_ioapics to get the 'struct ioapic' structure - which along with the
mp_irq[x] is used to figure out the default values and the polarity/trigger
overrides. Since the mp_find_ioapics now returns -1 [b/c the IOAPIC is filled
with 0xffffffff], the acpi_get_override_irq() stops trying to lookup in the
mp_irq[x] the proper INT_SRV_OVR and we can't install the SCI interrupt.

The proper fix for this is going in v3.5 and adds an x86_io_apic_ops
struct so that platforms can override it. But for v3.4 lets carry this
work-around. This patch does that by providing a slightly different variant
of the fake IOAPIC entries.
