Implement a helper elf_load() that wraps elf_map() and performs all
of the necessary work to ensure that when "memsz > filesz" the bytes
described by "memsz > filesz" are zeroed.
An outstanding issue is if the first segment has filesz 0, and has a
randomized location. But that is the same as today.
In this change I replaced an open coded padzero() that did not clear
all of the way to the end of the page, with padzero() that does.
I also stopped checking the return of padzero() as there is at least
one known case where testing for failure is the wrong thing to do.
It looks like binfmt_elf_fdpic may have the proper set of tests
for when error handling can be safely completed.
I found a couple of commits in the old history
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git,
that look very interesting in understanding this code.
commit 39b56d902bf3 ("[PATCH] binfmt_elf: clearing bss may fail")

It seems pretty clear that binfmt_elf_fdpic with skipping clear_user() for
non-writable segments and otherwise calling clear_user(), aka padzero(),
and checking it's return code is the right thing to do.
I just skipped the error checking as that avoids breaking things.
And notably, it looks like Borland's Kylix died in 2005 so it might be
safe to just consider read-only segments with memsz > filesz an error.

This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the
mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout.
It's actually something we always technically should have done, but
because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic"
sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in
place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the
proper locking.
And it worked fine. We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case
of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking
using the anon_vma lock and the mm->page_table_lock, it all was fairly
straightforward.
That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the
vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change
vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken. Oops.
It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and
do proper locking, but it's a bit painful. We have basically three
different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit
differently:
- the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually
fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have
something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze
of twisty little passages, all alike.
- the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack.
There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new
VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up
unhappy if you get it wrong.
- and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be
expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve()
we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access
memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the
stack as a special case.
None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in
particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times. And
ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have
both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the
register backing store.
So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to
first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and
convert all the straightforward architectures to it.
Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up
being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa. So we not only convert more
than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some
of those twisty little passages.
And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of
this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds.
That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc,
parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()'
manually because they are doing something slightly different from the
normal pattern. Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and
GUP.
So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper
versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious
path forward in the conversion. The execve() case is then actually
pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are
special, because at execve time even they grow down".
The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because
it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there
manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some
situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP.
And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a
new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held
for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only
to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it
completely dropped (in the failure case).
In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where
dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add
it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace().
Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases.
Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for
stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything
else. Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those
odd conditions entirely the wrong way around.
Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to
a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between
mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to
the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the
patches _fairly_ minimal.
Also, while I don't think it's valid to expand the stack from GUP, the
final patch in here is a "warn if some crazy GUP user wants to try to
expand the stack" patch. That one will be reverted before the final
release, but it's left to catch any odd cases during the merge window
and release candidates.

* branch 'expand-stack':
gup: add warning if some caller would seem to want stack expansion
mm: always expand the stack with the mmap write lock held
execve: expand new process stack manually ahead of time

arm64/mm: Convert to using lock_mm_and_find_vma()
mm: make the page fault mmap locking killable
mm: introduce new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' page fault helper
This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when
extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument
from the vm helper functions again.
For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and
page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks. Let's see if any
strange users really wanted that.
It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new
lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy
"expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock
and take it for writing while expanding the vma. This makes it fairly
straightforward to convert the remaining architectures.
As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions
for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be
valid. So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and
the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

is required.
To avoid making this a flag-day event, this still allows the old
read-locking case for the trivial situations, and passes in a flag to
say "is it write-locked". That way write-lockers can say "yes, I'm
being careful", and legacy users will continue to work in all the common
cases until they have been fully converted to the new world order.

fill_note_info() iterates through the list of threads collected in
mm->core_state->dumper, allocating a struct elf_thread_core_info
instance for each and linking those into a list.
We need the entry corresponding to current to be first in the
resulting list, so the logics for list insertion is
if it's for current or list is empty
insert in the head
else
insert after the first element
However, in mm->core_state->dumper the entry for current is guaranteed
to be the first one. Which means that both parts of condition will
be true on the first iteration and neither will be true on all subsequent
ones.
Taking the first iteration out of the loop simplifies things nicely...

ELF: fix overflow in total mapping size calculation
In fill_thread_core_info() the ptrace accessible registers are collected
to be written out as notes in a core file. The note array is allocated
from a size calculated by iterating the user regset view, and counting the
regsets that have a non-zero core_note_type. However, this only allows for
there to be non-zero core_note_type at the end of the regset view. If
there are any gaps in the middle, fill_thread_core_info() will overflow the
note allocation, as it iterates over the size of the view and the
allocation would be smaller than that.
There doesn't appear to be any arch that has gaps such that they exceed
the notes allocation, but the code is brittle and tries to support
something it doesn't. It could be fixed by increasing the allocation size,
but instead just have the note collecting code utilize the array better.
This way the allocation can stay smaller.
Even in the case of no arch's that have gaps in their regset views, this
introduces a change in the resulting indicies of t->notes. It does not
introduce any changes to the core file itself, because any blank notes are
skipped in write_note_info().
In case, the allocation logic between fill_note_info() and
fill_thread_core_info() ever diverges from the usage logic, warn and skip
writing any notes that would overflow the array.

BugLink: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197921
As pointed out in the discussion of buglink, we cannot calculate AT_PHDR
as the sum of load_addr and exec->e_phoff.
: The AT_PHDR of ELF auxiliary vectors should point to the memory address
: of program header. But binfmt_elf.c calculates this address as follows:
:
: NEW_AUX_ENT(AT_PHDR, load_addr + exec->e_phoff);
:
: which is wrong since e_phoff is the file offset of program header and
: load_addr is the memory base address from PT_LOAD entry.
:
: The ld.so uses AT_PHDR as the memory address of program header. In normal
: case, since the e_phoff is usually 64 and in the first PT_LOAD region, it
: is the correct program header address.
:
: But if the address of program header isn't equal to the first PT_LOAD
: address + e_phoff (e.g. Put the program header in other non-consecutive
: PT_LOAD region), ld.so will try to read program header from wrong address
: then crash or use incorrect program header.
This is because exec->e_phoff
is the offset of PHDRs in the file and the address of PHDRs in the
memory may differ from it. This patch fixes the bug by calculating the
address of program headers from PT_LOADs directly.

Partially revert commit 5f501d5556 ("binfmt_elf: reintroduce using
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE"), which applied the ET_DYN "total_mapping_size"
logic also to ET_EXEC.
At least ia64 has ET_EXEC PT_LOAD segments that are not virtual-address
contiguous (but _are_ file-offset contiguous). This would result in a
giant mapping attempting to cover the entire span, including the virtual
address range hole, and well beyond the size of the ELF file itself,
causing the kernel to refuse to load it. For example:
$ readelf -lW /usr/bin/gcc
...
Program Headers:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz ...
...
LOAD 0x000000 0x4000000000000000 0x4000000000000000 0x00b5a0 0x00b5a0 ...
LOAD 0x00b5a0 0x600000000000b5a0 0x600000000000b5a0 0x0005ac 0x000710 ...
...
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^
File offset range : 0x000000-0x00bb4c
0x00bb4c bytes
Virtual address range : 0x4000000000000000-0x600000000000bcb0
0x200000000000bcb0 bytes
Remove the total_mapping_size logic for ET_EXEC, which reduces the
ET_EXEC MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE coverage to only the first PT_LOAD (better
than nothing), and retains it for ET_DYN.
Ironically, this is the reverse of the problem that originally caused
problems with MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE: overlapping PT_LOAD segments. Future
work could restore full coverage if load_elf_binary() were to perform
mappings in a separate phase from the loading (where it could resolve
both overlaps and holes).

prevent the silent clobbering of an existing mapping (e.g. stack) by
the ELF image, which could lead to exploitable conditions. Quoting
commit 4ed2863951 ("fs, elf: drop MAP_FIXED usage from elf_map"),
which originally introduced the use of MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE in the
loader:
Both load_elf_interp and load_elf_binary rely on elf_map to map
segments [to a specific] address and they use MAP_FIXED to enforce
that. This is however [a] dangerous thing prone to silent data
corruption which can be even exploitable.
...
Let's take CVE-2017-1000253 as an example ... we could end up mapping
[the executable] over the existing stack ... The [stack layout] issue
has been fixed since then ... So we should be safe and any [similar]
attack should be impractical. On the other hand this is just too
subtle [an] assumption ... it can break quite easily and [be] hard to
spot.
...
Address this [weakness] by changing MAP_FIXED to the newly added
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. This will mean that mmap will fail if there is
an existing mapping clashing with the requested one [instead of
silently] clobbering it.
Then processing ET_DYN binaries the loader already calculates a total
size for the image when the first segment is mapped, maps the entire
image, and then unmaps the remainder before the remaining segments are
then individually mapped.
To avoid the earlier problems (legitimate overlapping LOAD segments
specified in the ELF), apply the same logic to ET_EXEC binaries as well.
For both ET_EXEC and ET_DYN+INTERP use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for the
initial total size mapping and then use MAP_FIXED to build the final
(possibly legitimately overlapping) mappings. For ET_DYN w/out INTERP,
continue to map at a system-selected address in the mmap region.

Pull per signal_struct coredumps from Eric Biederman:
"Current coredumps are mixed up with the exit code, the signal handling
code, and the ptrace code making coredumps much more complicated than
necessary and difficult to follow.
This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up,
making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop. Then
cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps. Then cleans up the
coredump interactions with exit. Finally the coredump interactions
with the signal handling code is cleaned up.
The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs.
I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process
the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change
the userspace visible behavior.
In previous discussions some of these changes were organized
differently and individually appeared to make the code base worse. As
currently written I believe they all stand on their own as cleanups
and bug fixes.
Which means that even if the worst should happen and the last change
needs to be reverted for some unimaginable reason, the code base will
still be improved.
If the worst does not happen there are a more cleanups that can be
made. Signals that generate coredumps can easily become eligible for
short circuit delivery in complete_signal. The entire rendezvous for
generating a coredump can move into get_signal. The function
force_sig_info_to_task be written in a way that does not modify the
signal handling state of the target task (because coredumps are
eligible for short circuit delivery). Many of these future cleanups
can be done another way but nothing so cleanly as if coredumps become
per signal_struct"
