2020-09-09uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space write functionDaniel Borkmann
[ Upstream commit 1d1585ca0f48fe7ed95c3571f3e4a82b2b5045dc ] Commit 3d7081822f7f ("uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space read functions") missed to add probe write function, therefore factor out a probe_write_common() helper with most logic of probe_kernel_write() except setting KERNEL_DS, and add a new probe_user_write() helper so it can be used from BPF side. Again, on some archs, the user address space and kernel address space can co-exist and be overlapping, so in such case, setting KERNEL_DS would mean that the given address is treated as being in kernel address space.

2020-09-09uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space read functionsMasami Hiramatsu
[ Upstream commit 3d7081822f7f9eab867d9bcc8fd635208ec438e0 ] Add probe_user_read(), strncpy_from_unsafe_user() and strnlen_unsafe_user() which allows caller to access user-space in IRQ context. Current probe_kernel_read() and strncpy_from_unsafe() are not available for user-space memory, because it sets KERNEL_DS while accessing data. On some arch, user address space and kernel address space can be co-exist, but others can not. In that case, setting KERNEL_DS means given address is treated as a kernel address space. Also strnlen_user() is only available from user context since it can sleep if pagefault is enabled. To access user-space memory without pagefault, we need these new functions which sets USER_DS while accessing the data.

2016-05-22x86: remove more uaccess_32.h complexityLinus Torvalds
I'm looking at trying to possibly merge the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the x86 uaccess.h implementation, but first this needs to be cleaned up. For example, the 32-bit version of "__copy_from_user_inatomic()" is mostly the special cases for the constant size, and it's actually almost never relevant. Most users aren't actually using a constant size anyway, and the few cases that do small constant copies are better off just using __get_user() instead. So get rid of the unnecessary complexity.

2015-11-05mm/maccess.c: actually return -EFAULT from strncpy_from_unsafeRasmus Villemoes
As far as I can tell, strncpy_from_unsafe never returns -EFAULT. ret is the result of a __copy_from_user_inatomic(), which is 0 for success and positive (in this case necessarily 1) for access error - it is never negative. So we were always returning the length of the, possibly truncated, destination string.

2015-11-05uaccess: reimplement probe_kernel_address() using probe_kernel_read()Andrew Morton
probe_kernel_address() is basically the same as the (later added) probe_kernel_read(). The return value on EFAULT is a bit different: probe_kernel_address() returns number-of-bytes-not-copied whereas probe_kernel_read() returns -EFAULT. All callers have been checked, none cared. probe_kernel_read() can be overridden by the architecture whereas probe_kernel_address() cannot. parisc, blackfin and um do this, to insert additional checking. Hence this patch possibly fixes obscure bugs, although there are only two probe_kernel_address() callsites outside arch/. My first attempt involved removing probe_kernel_address() entirely and converting all callsites to use probe_kernel_read() directly, but that got tiresome. This patch shrinks mm/slab_common.o by 218 bytes. For a single probe_kernel_address() callsite.

2010-10-27MN10300: Save frame pointer in thread_info struct rather than global varDavid Howells
Save the current exception frame pointer in the thread_info struct rather than in a global variable as the latter makes SMP tricky, especially when preemption is also enabled. This also replaces __frame with current_frame() and rearranges header file inclusions to make it all compile.

2009-06-12[S390] maccess: add weak attribute to probe_kernel_writeHeiko Carstens
probe_kernel_write() gets used to write to the kernel address space. E.g. to patch the kernel (kgdb, ftrace, kprobes...). Some architectures however enable write protection for the kernel text section, so that writes to this region would fault. This patch allows to specify an architecture specific version of probe_kernel_write() which allows to handle and bypass write protection of the text segment. That way it is still possible to catch random writes to kernel text and explicitly allow writes via this interface.

2008-04-17kgdb: fix optional arch functions and probe_kernel_*Jason Wessel
Fix two regressions dealing with the kgdb core. 1) kgdb_skipexception and kgdb_post_primary_code are optional functions that are only required on archs that need special exception fixups. 2) The kernel address space scope must be set on any probe_kernel_* function or archs such as ARCH=arm will not allow access to the kernel memory space. As an example, it is required to allow the full kernel address space is when you the kernel debugger to inspect a system call.
