Minor rework for struct ep11_cprb and struct ep11_urb. Use of u8, u16,
u32 instead of unsigned char. Declare pointers to mem from userspace
with __user to give sparse a chance to check.
Export zcrypt_send_ep11_cprb() function as this function will be
called by code in progress which will build ep11 cprbs within the
zcrypt device driver zoo and send them to EP11 crypto cards.

For EP11 CPRBs there was only to choose between specify
one or more ep11 targets or not give a target at all. Without
any target the zcrypt code assumed AUTOSELECT. For EP11 this
ended up in choosing any EP11 APQN with regards to the weight.
However, CCA CPRBs can have a more fine granular target
addressing. The caller can give 0xFFFF as AUTOSELECT for
the card and/or the domain. So it's possible to address
any card but domain given or any domain but card given.
This patch now introduces the very same for EP11 CPRB handling.
An EP11 target entry now may contain 0xFFFF as card and/or
domain value with the meaning of ANY card or domain. So
now the same behavior as with CCA CPRBs becomes possible:
Address any card with given domain or address any domain within
given card.
For convenience the zcrypt.h header file now has two new
defines AUTOSEL_AP and AUTOSEL_DOM covering the 0xFFFF
value to address card any and domain any.

With this patch the paes ciphers do accept AES clear key values of
size 16, 24 or 32 byte. The key value is internal rearranged to form a
paes clear key token so that the pkey kernel module recognizes and
handles this key material as source for protected keys.
Using clear key material as a source for protected keys is a security
risc as the raw key material is kept in memory. However, so the AES
selftests provided with the testmanager can be run during registration
of the paes ciphers.

This patch adds support for a new key blob format to the
pkey kernel module. The new key blob comprises a clear
key value together with key type information.
The implementation tries to derive an protected key
from the blob with the clear key value inside with
1) the PCKMO instruction. This may fail as the LPAR
profile may disable this way.
2) Generate an CCA AES secure data key with exact the
clear key value. This requires to have a working
crypto card in CCA Coprocessor mode. Then derive
an protected key from the CCA AES secure key again
with the help of a working crypto card in CCA mode.
If both way fail, the transformation of the clear key
blob into a protected key will fail. For the PAES cipher
this would result in a failure at setkey() invocation.
A clear key value exposed in main memory is a security
risk. The intention of this new 'clear key blob' support
for pkey is to provide self-tests for the PAES cipher key
implementation. These known answer tests obviously need
to be run with well known key values. So with the clear
key blob format there is a way to provide knwon answer
tests together with an pkey clear key blob for the
in-kernel self tests done at cipher registration.

There have been some findings during Eric Biggers rework of the
paes implementation which this patch tries to address:
A very minor finding within paes ctr where when the cpacf instruction
returns with only partially data en/decrytped the walk_done() was
mistakenly done with the all data counter. Please note this can only
happen when the kmctr returns because the protected key became invalid
in the middle of the operation. And this is only with suspend and
resume on a system with different effective wrapping key.
Eric Biggers mentioned that the context struct within the tfm struct
may be shared among multiple kernel threads. So here now a rework
which uses a spinlock per context to protect the read and write of the
protected key blob value. The en/decrypt functions copy the protected
key(s) at the beginning into a param struct and do not work with the
protected key within the context any more. If the protected key in the
param struct becomes invalid, the key material is again converted to
protected key(s) and the context gets this update protected by the
spinlock. Race conditions are still possible and may result in writing
the very same protected key value more than once. So the spinlock
needs to make sure the protected key(s) within the context are
consistent updated.
The ctr page is now locked by a mutex instead of a spinlock. A similar
patch went into the aes_s390 code as a result of a complain "sleeping
function called from invalid context at ...algapi.h". See
commit 1c2c7029c0 ("s390/crypto: fix possible sleep during spinlock
aquired")' for more.
During testing with instrumented code another issue with the xts
en/decrypt function revealed. The retry cleared the running iv value
and thus let to wrong en/decrypted data.
Tested and verified with additional testcases via AF_ALG interface and
additional selftests within the kernel (which will be made available
as soon as possible).

Commit ee71d16d22 ("s390/mm: make TASK_SIZE independent from the number
of page table levels") changed the logic of TASK_SIZE and also removed the
arch_mmap_check() implementation for s390. This combination has a subtle
effect on how get_unmapped_area() for hugetlbfs pages works. It is now
possible that a user process establishes a hugetlbfs mapping at an address
above 4 TB, without triggering a dynamic pagetable upgrade from 3 to 4
levels.
This is because hugetlbfs mappings will not use mm->get_unmapped_area, but
rather file->f_op->get_unmapped_area, which currently is the generic
implementation of hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() that does not know about s390
dynamic pagetable upgrades, but with the new definition of TASK_SIZE, it
will now allow mappings above 4 TB.
Subsequent access to such a mapped address above 4 TB will result in a page
fault loop, because the CPU cannot translate such a large address with 3
pagetable levels. The fault handler will try to map in a hugepage at the
address, but due to the folded pagetable logic it will end up with creating
entries in the 3 level pagetable, possibly overwriting existing mappings,
and then it all repeats when the access is retried.
Apart from the page fault loop, this can have various nasty effects, e.g.
kernel panic from one of the BUG_ON() checks in memory management code,
or even data loss if an existing mapping gets overwritten.
Fix this by implementing HAVE_ARCH_HUGETLB_UNMAPPED_AREA support for s390,
providing an s390 version for hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() with pagetable
upgrade support similar to arch_get_unmapped_area(), which will then be
used instead of the generic version.

Commit a2408a7036 ("perf evlist: Maintain evlist->all_cpus")
introduces a test case for cpumap merge operation, see functions
perf_cpu_map__merge() and test__cpu_map_merge().
The test case fails on s390 with this error message:
[root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf test -Fvvvvv 52
52: Merge cpu map :
--- start ---
cpumask list: 1-2,4-5,7
perf: /root/linux/tools/include/linux/refcount.h:131:\
refcount_sub_and_test: Assertion `!(new > val)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
[root@m35lp76 perf]#
The root cause is in the function test__cpu_map_merge():
It creates two cpu_maps named 'a' and 'b':
struct perf_cpu_map *a = perf_cpu_map__new("4,2,1");
struct perf_cpu_map *b = perf_cpu_map__new("4,5,7");
and creates a third map named 'c' which is the result of
the merge of maps a and b:
struct perf_cpu_map *c = perf_cpu_map__merge(a, b);
After some verifaction of the merged cpu_map all three
of them are have their reference count reduced and are
freed:
perf_cpu_map__put(a); (1)
perf_cpu_map__put(b);
perf_cpu_map__put(c);
The release of perf_cpu_map__put(a) is wrong. The map
is already released and free'ed as part of the function
perf_cpu_map__merge(struct perf_cpu_map *orig,
| struct perf_cpu_map *other)
+--> perf_cpu_map__put(orig);
|
+--> cpu_map__delete(orig)
At the end perf_cpu_map_put() is called for map 'orig'
alias 'a' and since the reference count is 1, the map
is deleted, as can be seen by the following gdb trace:
(gdb) where
#0 tcache_put (tc_idx=0, chunk=0x156cc30) at malloc.c:2940
#1 _int_free (av=0x3fffd49ee80 <main_arena>, p=0x156cc30,

Thus the perf_cpu_map__put(a) (see (1) above) frees map 'a'
a second time and causes the failure. Fix this be removing that
function call.

perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/u --per-thread ls
failed to set sink "" on event cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/u with 21 (Is a

This failure is root caused with the commit 1dc925568f ("perf

The log shows, cs_etm fails to parse the sink attribution; cs_etm event
relies on the event configuration to pass sink name, but the event
specific configuration data cannot be passed properly with flow:
get_config_terms()
ADD_CONFIG_TERM(DRV_CFG, term->val.str);

zfree(&term->val.str);
`> term->val.str is freed and assigned to NULL pointer;
cs_etm_set_sink_attr()
sink = __t->val.str;
`> sink string has been freed.
To fix this issue, in the function get_config_terms(), this patch
changes to use strdup() for allocation a new duplicate string rather
than directly assignment string pointer.
This patch addes a new field 'free_str' in the data structure
perf_evsel_config_term; 'free_str' is set to true when the union is used
as a string pointer; thus it can tell perf_evsel__free_config_terms() to
free the string.

Pull thread management updates from Christian Brauner:
"Sargun Dhillon over the last cycle has worked on the pidfd_getfd()
syscall.
This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors of a process
based on its pidfd. A task needs to have ptrace_may_access()
permissions with PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_REALCREDS (suggested by Oleg and
Andy) on the target.
One of the main use-cases is in combination with seccomp's user
notification feature. As a reminder, seccomp's user notification
feature was made available in v5.0. It allows a task to retrieve a
file descriptor for its seccomp filter. The file descriptor is usually
handed of to a more privileged supervising process. The supervisor can
then listen for syscall events caught by the seccomp filter of the
supervisee and perform actions in lieu of the supervisee, usually
emulating syscalls. pidfd_getfd() is needed to expand its uses.
There are currently two major users that wait on pidfd_getfd() and one
future user:
- Netflix, Sargun said, is working on a service mesh where users
should be able to connect to a dns-based VIP. When a user connects
to e.g. 1.2.3.4:80 that runs e.g. service "foo" they will be
redirected to an envoy process. This service mesh uses seccomp user
notifications and pidfd to intercept all connect calls and instead
of connecting them to 1.2.3.4:80 connects them to e.g.
127.0.0.1:8080.
- LXD uses the seccomp notifier heavily to intercept and emulate
mknod() and mount() syscalls for unprivileged containers/processes.
With pidfd_getfd() more uses-cases e.g. bridging socket connections
will be possible.
- The patchset has also seen some interest from the browser corner.
Right now, Firefox is using a SECCOMP_RET_TRAP sandbox managed by a
broker process. In the future glibc will start blocking all signals
during dlopen() rendering this type of sandbox impossible. Hence,
in the future Firefox will switch to a seccomp-user-nofication
based sandbox which also makes use of file descriptor retrieval.
The thread for this can be found at
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-12/msg00079.html
With pidfd_getfd() it is e.g. possible to bridge socket connections
for the supervisee (binding to a privileged port) and taking actions
on file descriptors on behalf of the supervisee in general.
Sargun's first version was using an ioctl on pidfds but various people
pushed for it to be a proper syscall which he duely implemented as
well over various review cycles. Selftests are of course included.
I've also added instructions how to deal with merge conflicts below.
There's also a small fix coming from the kernel mentee project to
correctly annotate struct sighand_struct with __rcu to fix various
sparse warnings. We've received a few more such fixes and even though
they are mostly trivial I've decided to postpone them until after -rc1
since they came in rather late and I don't want to risk introducing
build warnings.
Finally, there's a new prctl() command PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER which is
needed to avoid allocation recursions triggerable by storage drivers
that have userspace parts that run in the IO path (e.g. dm-multipath,
iscsi, etc). These allocation recursions deadlock the device.
The new prctl() allows such privileged userspace components to avoid
allocation recursions by setting the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO and
PF_LESS_THROTTLE flags. The patch carries the necessary acks from the
relevant maintainers and is routed here as part of prctl()
thread-management."

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This series is slightly unusual because it includes Arnd's compat
ioctl tree here:
1c46a2cf2d Merge tag 'block-ioctl-cleanup-5.6' into 5.6/scsi-queue
Excluding Arnd's changes, this is mostly an update of the usual
drivers: megaraid_sas, mpt3sas, qla2xxx, ufs, lpfc, hisi_sas.
There are a couple of core and base updates around error propagation
and atomicity in the attribute container base we use for the SCSI
transport classes.
The rest is minor changes and updates"

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Fix DM core's potential for q->make_request_fn NULL pointer in the
unlikely case that a DM device is created without a DM table and then
accessed due to upper-layer userspace code or user error.
- Fix DM thin-provisioning's metadata_pre_commit_callback to not use
memory after it is free'd. Also refactor code to disallow changing
the thin-pool's data device once in use -- doing so guarantees smae
lifetime of pool's data device relative to the pool metadata.
- Fix DM space maps used by DM thinp and DM cache to avoid reuse of a
already used block. This race was identified with extremely heavy
snapshot use in the context of DM thin provisioning.
- Fix DM raid's table status relative to an active rebuild.
- Fix DM crypt to use GFP_NOIO rather than GFP_NOFS in call to
skcipher_request_alloc(). Also fix benbi IV constructor crash if used
in authenticated mode.
- Add DM crypt support for Elephant diffuser to allow for Bitlocker
compatibility.
- Fix DM verity target to not prefetch hash blocks for data that has
already been verified.
- Fix DM writecache's incorrect flush sequence during commit when in
SSD mode.
- Improve DM writecache's sequential write performance on SSDs.
- Add DM zoned target support for zone sizes smaller than 128MiB.
- Add DM multipath 'queue_if_no_path_timeout_secs' module param to
allow timeout if path isn't reinstated. This allows users a kernel
safety-net against IO hanging indefinitely, due to no active paths,
that has historically only been provided by multipathd userspace.
- Various DM code cleanups to use true/false rather than 1/0, a
variable rename in dm-dust, and fix for a math error in comment for
DM thin metadata's ondisk format.
