[PATCH v4 0/2] m68k uaccess fault handling fixes

[PATCH v4 0/2] m68k uaccess fault handling fixes

[Michael Schmitz]

(Actually now) version 4 of fixes for uaccess fault handling
on 68030, tested on 68030 and 68040.

Patch 1 has one exception table entry fixed (residual
calculated in __generic_copy_to_user did not take into
account the number of longword transfers omitted due to a
fault) si as well as a final NOP added in __clear_user.

Patch 2 is unchanged from v3 (actually since RFC v1), now
has Tested-by tag by Finn Thain added.

These patches would still benefit from testing on 68060
and Coldfire. 

Cheers,

   Michael

[PATCH v4 1/2] m68k: Handle __generic_copy_to_user faults more carefully

[Michael Schmitz]

As mentioned by Finn Thain in his patch to improve put_user
exception handling on 040, a similar problem exists on 030
processors.

A moves instruction that crosses a page boundary from a
mapped page into an unmapped one will cause a mid-instruction
bus error exception (frame format b), with the PC pointing
(usually) two instructions past the faulting movesl instruction.

Our exception handling in __generic_copy_to_user only covers
the instruction immediately following the faulting one. As
a result, fixup_exception in send_fault_sig does not detect
this case, and cause send_fault_sig to oops.

Extend the exception table to cover one additional instruction
beyond the moves[lwb] instructions.

Tested on 68030 (Atari Falcon 030) with transfers beginning
at one to six bytes offset from the end of a mapped page,
followed by further bytes on an unmapped page (testcase
derived from stress-ng sysbadaddr stressor by Finn Thain).

Tested on 68040 (Mac Quadra) and 68030 (Mac IIci) by Finn Thain.

A similar problem is present in __clear_user(); modify the
exception table for that function in the same way (tested by
Finn Thain).

Changes from v3:

Finn Thain:

- correct exception table entry for movew instruction in
  __generic_copy_to_user

- add final NOP in __clear_user

Changes from RFC v2:

Finn Thain:

- add missing extension table entries and final NOP in
  __generic_copy_to_user faults in 040 tests

Michael Schmitz:

- add yet another exception table entry in __clear_user

Changes from RFC v1:

Michael Schmitz:

- use extended exception table instead of additional NOPs

[PATCH v4 2/2] m68k: improve __constant_copy_to_user_asm() fault handling

[Michael Schmitz]

A problem similar to that reported for __put_user_asm and
__generic_copy_to_user is also present in
__constant_copy_to_user_asm.

Address the problem by extending the exception table to cover
two instructions past each moves instruction, and adding a
single NOP at the very end to catch faults on the final
instruction (which is not guaranteed to be a movesb!).

Tested on 68030 (Atari Falcon 030) with a transfer beginning
at a single byte at the end of a mapped page followed by
seven more bytes on an unmapped page (testcase derived from
stress-ng sysbadaddr stressor by Finn Thain and modified to
use the llseek syscall).

I would very much like to test them on ColdFire. Unfortunately my only
ColdFire with MMU board (a M547xEVB) failed a couple of months back.
I am trying to find a replacement, but so far have not been able to get
my hands on one.

Maybe someone else out there has one they can test with?

Regards
Greg

Well, that __clear_user() bug is no longer theoretical. I accidentally 
bumped into it when I sent a ^C to a shell script I wrote to test some 
mac_scsi driver patches...

Also, it appears that the patch Michael posted in this thread would have 
prevented that oops because the "jne 1b" at __clear_user+0x22 would have 
been found in the exception table.

Re: [PATCH v4 1/2] m68k: Handle __generic_copy_to_user faults more carefully

[Michael Schmitz]

Hi Finn,

thanks for (inadvertently) proving this bug in __clear_user() does exist!

I'm afraid I've lost track of where we're at with this patch series. 
Does it need more work, or more bug reports such as the one below? The 
previous bug reports might be considered somewhat contrived but this 
one's from 'real' user space code, and none too complex at that?

Cheers,

     Michael

Apparently the series is waiting for some testing on a Coldfire system 
with MMU.

Right. That code was as follows. There's nothing here aimed at 
arch/m68k/lib/uaccess.c in particular, just IO to a block device and a 
tmpfs filesystem.


#!/bin/bash

set -e -u

dd if=/dev/urandom of=$rand bs=$len count=1 2>/dev/null

}

compare() {
        echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
        if ! cmp -n $len $orig $filename ; then
                diff -u <(hexdump -C < $orig) <(hexdump -C < $filename)
        fi
}

Ok, I am in a state that I can do that now (I managed to fix my M5475EVB board).
If I test the v4 versions of this patch set that should do the job?

Thanks, Greg.

There are 3 patches that need some more testing, one from me and two from 
Michael:

[PATCH] m68k: Handle put_user() faults more carefully
[PATCH v4 1/2] m68k: Handle __generic_copy_to_user faults more carefully
[PATCH v4 2/2] m68k: improve __constant_copy_to_user_asm() fault handling

They were posted in two threads:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-m68k/1ed9c4c753395510c1a8df9c35e2ad4c31c90f95.1714265926.git.fthain@linux-m68k.org/T/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-m68k/CAMuHMdVrOnOQwCxk42YCjEkbfL-YDSvpf_xTaouv9hUs2bO+qg@mail.gmail.com/T/

On 680x0, one of the bugs was brought to light with 'stress-ng 
--sysbadaddr -1'. The others required special test programs.

I've no idea whether Coldfire silicon is susceptable at all, and if it is, 
whether the same reproducers would work. But that's neither here nor there 
from a regression testing standpoint.

Yes, v4 is the one to test.

I'll see that I can dig out my test code to reproduce the bug.

Ok, thanks for the links. I have applied and tested those, no obvious regressions.
So for all of these patches:

Tested-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@linux-m68k.org>

I tried out the "stress-ng --sysbadaddr -1" test, and that didn't go so well for me:

# stress-ng --sysbadaddr -1

I wonder if recent signal handling changes (e.g. commit 
0d4276cfbe6fd4c4a21acdee803b05a3a6192082) have rare unexpected side 
effects on Coldfire here ... OTOH, signal handling as such works just 
fine, right?

That would be commit b845b574f86d ("m68k: Move signal frame following 
exception on 68020/030") on mainline. If it caused a regression, that 
would have first appeared in v6.4. I can't imagine how that commit could 
affect Coldfire but that's no reason not to test an older kernel.
FWIW, my hunch is that the other stressors which call wait4() will 
probably crash too (regardless of kernel version).

Yes, testing older kernels is certainly the fastest way to rule out 
involvement of that commit.

On a closer look, there is no possible way in that this commit can be 
responsible for the bug unless Coldfire does use frame format B for 
access errors. I don't think that's likely?

Quite likely ...

I will go back a few revisions and see if I can shed some light on it.
