Commit 95846ecf9dac ("pid: replace pid bitmap implementation with IDR
API") changed last field of /proc/loadavg (last pid allocated) to be off
by one:
# unshare -p -f --mount-proc cat /proc/loadavg
0.00 0.00 0.00 1/60 2 <===
It should be 1 after first fork into pid namespace.
This is formally a regression but given how useless this field is I
don't think anyone is affected.
Bug was found by /proc testsuite!

task_dump_owner() has the following code:
mm = task->mm;
if (mm) {
if (get_dumpable(mm) != SUID_DUMP_USER) {
uid = ...
}
}
Check for ->mm is buggy -- kernel thread might be borrowing mm
and inode will go to some random uid:gid pair.

The swap offset reported by /proc/<pid>/pagemap may be not correct for
PMD migration entries. If addr passed into pagemap_pmd_range() isn't
aligned with PMD start address, the swap offset reported doesn't
reflect this. And in the loop to report information of each sub-page,
the swap offset isn't increased accordingly as that for PFN.
This may happen after opening /proc/<pid>/pagemap and seeking to a page
whose address doesn't align with a PMD start address. I have verified
this with a simple test program.
BTW: migration swap entries have PFN information, do we need to restrict
whether to show them?

If module removes proc directory while another process pins it by
chdir'ing to it, then subsequent recreation of proc entry and all
entries down the tree will not be visible to any process until pinning
process unchdir from directory and unpins everything.
Steps to reproduce:
proc_mkdir("aaa", NULL);
proc_create("aaa/bbb", ...);
chdir("/proc/aaa");
remove_proc_entry("aaa/bbb", NULL);
remove_proc_entry("aaa", NULL);
proc_mkdir("aaa", NULL);
# inaccessible because "aaa" dentry still points
# to the original "aaa".
proc_create("aaa/bbb", ...);
Fix is to implement ->d_revalidate and ->d_delete.

Patch series "ipc: Clamp *mni to the real IPCMNI limit", v3.
The sysctl parameters msgmni, shmmni and semmni have an inherent limit
of IPC_MNI (32k). However, users may not be aware of that because they
can write a value much higher than that without getting any error or
notification. Reading the parameters back will show the newly written
values which are not real.
Enforcing the limit by failing sysctl parameter write, however, can
break existing user applications. To address this delemma, a new flags
field is introduced into the ctl_table. The value CTL_FLAGS_CLAMP_RANGE
can be added to any ctl_table entries to enable a looser range clamping
without returning any error. For example,
.flags = CTL_FLAGS_CLAMP_RANGE,
This flags value are now used for the range checking of shmmni, msgmni
and semmni without breaking existing applications. If any out of range
value is written to those sysctl parameters, the following warning will
be printed instead.
Kernel parameter "shmmni" was set out of range [0, 32768], clamped to 32768.
Reading the values back will show 32768 instead of some fake values.
This patch (of 6):
Fix a typo.

In a typical for /proc "open+read+close" usecase, dentry is looked up
successfully on open only to be killed in dput() on close. In fact
dentries which aren't /proc/*/... and /proc/sys/* were almost NEVER
CACHED. Simple printk in proc_lookup_de() shows that.
Now that ->delete hook intelligently picks which dentries should live in
dcache and which should not, rbtree caching is not necessary as dcache
does it job, at last!
As a side effect, struct proc_dir_entry shrinks by one pointer which can
go into inline name.

Various subsystems can create files and directories in /proc with names
directly controlled by userspace.
Which means "/", "." and ".." are no-no.
"/" split is already taken care of, do the other 2 prohibited names.

Of course it doesn't matter because /proc is not modular but do it

"struct proc_dir_entry" is variable sized because of 0-length trailing
array for name, however, because of SLAB padding allocations it is
possible to make "struct proc_dir_entry" fixed sized and allocate same
amount of memory.
It buys fine-grained debugging with poisoning and usercopy protection
which is not possible with kmalloc-* caches.
Currently, on 32-bit 91+ byte allocations go into kmalloc-128 and on
64-bit 147+ byte allocations go to kmalloc-192 anyway.
Additional memory is allocated only for 38/46+ byte long names which are
rare or may not even exist in the wild.

"struct pde_opener" is fixed size and we can have more granular approach
to debugging.
For those who don't know, per cache SLUB poisoning and red zoning don't
work if there is at least one object allocated which is hopeless in case
of kmalloc-64 but not in case of standalone cache. Although systemd
opens 2 files from the get go, so it is hopeless after all.

Commit ca469f35a8e9ef ("deal with races between remove_proc_entry() and
proc_reg_release()") moved too much stuff under ->pde_unload_lock making
a problem described at series "[PATCH v5] procfs: Improve Scaling in
proc" worse.
While RCU is being figured out, move kfree() out of ->pde_unload_lock.
On my potato, difference is only 0.5% speedup with concurrent
open+read+close of /proc/cmdline, but the effect should be more
noticeable on more capable machines.

get_task_umask locks/unlocks the task on its own. The only caller does
the same thing immediately after.
Utilize the fact the task has to be locked anyway and just do it once.
Since there are no other users and the code is short, fold it in.

Commit:
df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data")
... introduced a bounce buffer to work around CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y.
However, accessing the vsyscall user page will cause an SMAP fault.
Replace memcpy() with copy_from_user() to fix this bug works, but adding
a common way to handle this sort of user page may be useful for future.
Currently, only vsyscall page requires KCORE_USER.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:
for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Rearrange args for smaller code.
lookup revolves around memcmp() which gets len 3rd arg, so propagate
length as 3rd arg.
readdir and lookup add additional arg to VFS ->readdir and ->lookup, so
better add it to the end.

use_pde() is used at every open/read/write/... of every random /proc

(read: never). So it gets "likely".
unuse_pde() gets "unlikely" for the same reason.
close_pdeo() gets unlikely as the completion is filled only if there is a
race between PDE removal and close() (read: never ever).

Commit df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext
data") added a bounce buffer to avoid hardened usercopy checks. Copying
to the bounce buffer was implemented with a simple memcpy() assuming
that it is always valid to read from kernel memory iff the
kern_addr_valid() check passed.
A simple, but pointless, test case like "dd if=/proc/kcore of=/dev/null"
now can easily crash the kernel, since the former execption handling on
invalid kernel addresses now doesn't work anymore.
Also adding a kern_addr_valid() implementation wouldn't help here. Most
architectures simply return 1 here, while a couple implemented a page
table walk to figure out if something is mapped at the address in
question.
With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC active mappings are established and removed all the
time, so that relying on the result of kern_addr_valid() before
executing the memcpy() also doesn't work.
Therefore simply use probe_kernel_read() to copy to the bounce buffer.
This also allows to simplify read_kcore().
At least on s390 this fixes the observed crashes and doesn't introduce
warnings that were removed with df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add
bounce buffer for ktext data"), even though the generic
probe_kernel_read() implementation uses uaccess functions.
While looking into this I'm also wondering if kern_addr_valid() could be
completely removed...(?)

Current code does:
if (sscanf(dentry->d_name.name, "%lx-%lx", start, end) != 2)
However sscanf() is broken garbage.
It silently accepts whitespace between format specifiers
(did you know that?).
It silently accepts valid strings which result in integer overflow.
Do not use sscanf() for any even remotely reliable parsing code.

memory
If start_code / end_code pointers are screwed then "VmExe" could be
bigger than total executable virtual memory and "VmLib" becomes
negative:
VmExe: 294320 kB
VmLib: 18446744073709327564 kB
VmExe and VmLib documented as text segment and shared library code size.
Now their sum will be always equal to mm->exec_vm which sums size of
executable and not writable and not stack areas.
I've seen this for huge (>2Gb) statically linked binary which has whole
world inside. For it start_code .. end_code range also covers one of
rodata sections. Probably this is bug in customized linker, elf loader
or both.
Anyway CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE allows to change these pointers, thus
we cannot trust them without validation.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

It's a user pointer, and while the permissions of the file are pretty
questionable (should it really be readable to everybody), hashing the
pointer isn't going to be the solution.
We should take a closer look at more of the /proc/<pid> file permissions
in general. Sure, we do want many of them to often be readable (for
'ps' and friends), but I think we should probably do a few conversions
from S_IRUGO to S_IRUSR.
