Ok, so here goes the attachment (I hope). Stupid webmail...

Thanks for the patch. We made a few changes to the patch:

- use put_user instead of copy_to_user for simple data types.
- Couple of more instances where a 64 bit copy needs to be split into two

compat_filldir64():	__put_user(offset, &dirent->d_off)
compat_sys_getdents64():	__put_user(d_off, &lastdirent->d_off)

With these changes, we don't see unaligned faults anymore.

Re: sys getdents64 needs compat wrapper ?

[David S. Miller]

Some bug fixes needed:

+#define NAME_OFFSET(de) ((int) ((de)->d_name - (char *) (de)))

Cast must be "(char __user *)" to avoid sparse warnings.

+	if (__put_user(d_type, (char *) dirent + reclen - 1))

Again need "(char __user *)" for sparse.

+		if ((__put_user(offset, (u32 *)&dirent->d_off))
+		 || (__put_user(offset >> 32, ((u32 *)&dirent->d_off) + 1)))

Again, need "(u32 __user *)"

	 || (__put_user(ino >> 32, ((u32 *)&dirent->d_ino) + 1)))

Another "(u32 __user *)"

+	 || (__put_user(off >> 32, ((u32 *)&dirent->d_off) + 1)))

Another "(u32 __user *)"

+		__put_user(d_off, (u32 *)&lastdirent->d_off);
+		__put_user(d_off >> 32, ((u32 *)&lastdirent->d_off) + 1);

Two more "(u32 __user *)"

People really need to get into the habit of running sparse on their
changes to the compat code now that we've annotated most of it. :-)

This updated patch takes care of the __user problems that Dave pointed out. Regarding __put_user vs __copy_to_user, __put_user is more optimal on ia64 like Andrew already noted. I realize it's not optimal on all platforms. So I suggest that we apply the patch for now and try to build something that's optimal for all platforms in the future.

I just realized your code is broken on big-endian architectures, so
we should either get back to __copy_to_user or find the optimal solution
now.

How about a {__,}{get,put}_user_unaligned() that gets defined per
architecture in one of these two ways:

/* put_user doesn't care about alignment */
#define put_user_unaligned(x,ptr) put_user(x,ptr)

/* put_user only works on aligned data */
#define put_user_unaligned(x,ptr) ({ \
	__typeof__(*(ptr)) __x = (x); \
	copy_to_user(ptr, &__x, sizeof(*(ptr))) ? -EFAULT : 0; \
})

We'll go for the optimal solution now. We'll provide an <asm-generic/uaccess.h> that does __copy_to_user and a <asm-ia64/uaccess.h> that's optimized for ia64. Archs which don't care about alignment can override appropriately.

Should have the patch tested by tomorrow.

It took us a bit longer :) But here's the promised patch. Using __put_user_unaligned() on ia64 may still cause unaligned faults, but we chose to optimize for the common case, where it's 4 byte aligned.

	-Arun

[-- Attachment #2: __get_put_user_unaligned.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 8037 bytes --]

(1) Fix compat_filldir64() which is broken on big-endian machines.
(2) Introduce new APIs __{get,put}_user_unaligned.
(3) Optimize __{get,put}_user_unaligned for ia64.

Isn't it legal for i386 code to pass syscall arguments with
an arbitrary alignment? I guess gcc normally aligns everything
to 32 bit unless you force it not to but you might still return
error for syscalls that work fine on a native i386 system.

This should be __copy_from_user instead of copy_from_user, right?

Under what circumstances would you need to break down a 4 byte
alignment into 2 bytes? I can understand that you want to optimize
the unaligned-64 bit case because i386-gcc aligns them only to 32 bit
in user space, but the other special cases are bogus. Why not
just do:

#define __put_user_unaligned(x, ptr)					\
(									\
	(sizeof(*(ptr)) == 8) ?						\
		((__put_user((x), (u32 __user *)(ptr)))			\
		 | (__put_user((x) >> 32, ((u32 __user *)(ptr) + 1))))	\
		: __put_user(x,ptr)					\
)

Note also the use of | instead of || to get the correct value on error
(-EFAULT, not 1).

ppc64 and s390 both don't care about alignment, so simply using

#define __get_user_unaligned __get_user
#define __put_user_unaligned __put_user

would make more sense here. See include/asm-*/unaligned.h

We don't return error, we just take an unaligned fault for this case.

I agree that it's unlikely to be used, but I put it in there for completeness. For eg: <asm-ia64/unaligned.h> is doing this too.

[-- Attachment #2: __get_put_user_unaligned.2.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 7919 bytes --]

(1) Fix compat_filldir64() which is broken on big-endian machines.
(2) Introduce new APIs __{get,put}_user_unaligned.
(3) Optimize __{get,put}_user_unaligned for ia64, x86-64, s390, ppc64.

The assignment is done in the wrong direction, this needs to become
something like:

#define __get_user_unaligned(x, ptr)                                   \
({                                                                     \
       __typeof__ (*(ptr)) __x;                                        \
       __copy_from_user(&__x, (ptr), sizeof(*(ptr))) ? -EFAULT : 0;    \
       (x) = __x;                                                      \
})

Hopefully that'll be the last change for this, the rest looks good to
me.

Hope so! Take 3.

At least s390x doesn't need 64 bit alignment for accessing 64 bit
variables. Other explanations could be
- 32 bit user space also needs 8 byte alignment for struct dirent64
- an architecture catches unaligned accesses only for user, not kernel
  space.
- put_user(u64...) handles unaligned access itself.

The attachment has an older (but so far untested) patch of mine
to consolidate the syscalls from fs/readdir.c. I have added a
compat_sys_getdents64() that uses __copy_to_user instead of
__put_user. Does that work for you or did you have something
different in mind?
Alternatively, that change could be done in sys_getdents64()
itself so you can use it for ia64 compat like the others do.
