2013-02-08uprobes: Change handle_swbp() to expose bp_vaddr to handler_chain()Oleg Nesterov
Change handle_swbp() to set regs->ip = bp_vaddr in advance, this is what consumer->handler() needs but uprobe_get_swbp_addr() is not exported. This also simplifies the code and makes it more consistent across the supported architectures. handle_swbp() becomes the only caller of uprobe_get_swbp_addr().

2013-02-08uprobes/x86: Change __skip_sstep() to actually skip the whole insnOleg Nesterov
__skip_sstep() doesn't update regs->ip. Currently this is correct but only "by accident" and it doesn't skip the whole insn. Change it to advance ->ip by the length of the detected 0x66*0x90 sequence. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2013-02-06perf/x86: Move MSR address offset calculation to architecture specific filesJacob Shin
Move counter index to MSR address offset calculation to architecture specific files. This prepares the way for perf_event_amd to enable counter addresses that are not contiguous -- for example AMD Family 15h processors have 6 core performance counters starting at 0xc0010200 and 4 northbridge performance counters starting at 0xc0010240.

2013-01-22ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILLOleg Nesterov
putreg() assumes that the tracee is not running and pt_regs_access() can safely play with its stack. However a killed tracee can return from ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee does SAVE_REST again. set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the logic. As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace() call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths. Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before access_process_vm(). While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

2013-01-22arm64: elf: fix core dumping to match what glibc expectsWill Deacon
The kernel's internal definition of ELF_NGREG uses struct pt_regs, which means that we disagree with userspace on the size of coredumps since glibc correctly uses the user-visible struct user_pt_regs. This patch fixes our ELF_NGREG definition to use struct user_pt_regs and introduces our own ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS to convert between the user and kernel structure definitions.

2013-01-16xen: Fix stack corruption in xen_failsafe_callback for 32bit PVOPS guests.Andrew Cooper
This fixes CVE-2013-0190 / XSA-40 There has been an error on the xen_failsafe_callback path for failed iret, which causes the stack pointer to be wrong when entering the iret_exc error path. This can result in the kernel crashing. In the classic kernel case, the relevant code looked a little like: popl %eax # Error code from hypervisor jz 5f addl $16,%esp jmp iret_exc # Hypervisor said iret fault 5: addl $16,%esp # Hypervisor said segment selector fault Here, there are two identical addls on either option of a branch which appears to have been optimised by hoisting it above the jz, and converting it to an lea, which leaves the flags register unaffected. In the PVOPS case, the code looks like: popl_cfi %eax # Error from the hypervisor lea 16(%esp),%esp # Add $16 before choosing fault path CFI_ADJUST_CFA_OFFSET -16 jz 5f addl $16,%esp # Incorrectly adjust %esp again jmp iret_exc It is possible unprivileged userspace applications to cause this behaviour, for example by loading an LDT code selector, then changing the code selector to be not-present. At this point, there is a race condition where it is possible for the hypervisor to return back to userspace from an interrupt, fault on its own iret, and inject a failsafe_callback into the kernel. This bug has been present since the introduction of Xen PVOPS support in commit 5ead97c84 (xen: Core Xen implementation), in 2.6.23.

2013-01-16s390/time: fix sched_clock() overflowHeiko Carstens
Converting a 64 Bit TOD format value to nanoseconds means that the value must be divided by 4.096. In order to achieve that we multiply with 125 and divide by 512. When used within sched_clock() this triggers an overflow after appr. 417 days. Resulting in a sched_clock() return value that is much smaller than previously and therefore may cause all sort of weird things in subsystems that rely on a monotonic sched_clock() behaviour. To fix this implement a tod_to_ns() helper function which converts TOD values without overflow and call this function from both places that open coded the conversion: sched_clock() and kvm_s390_handle_wait().
