* Replace <asm/uaccess.h> with <linux/uaccess.h> globallyLinus Torvalds2018-11-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*<asm/uaccess.h>' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include <linux/uaccess.h>!" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

* mm: Tighten x86 /dev/mem with zeroing readsKees Cook2017-05-071-30/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit a4866aa812518ed1a37d8ea0c881dc946409de94 upstream. Under CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, reading System RAM through /dev/mem is disallowed. However, on x86, the first 1MB was always allowed for BIOS and similar things, regardless of it actually being System RAM. It was possible for heap to end up getting allocated in low 1MB RAM, and then read by things like x86info or dd, which would trip hardened usercopy: usercopy: kernel memory exposure attempt detected from ffff880000090000 (dma-kmalloc-256) (4096 bytes) This changes the x86 exception for the low 1MB by reading back zeros for System RAM areas instead of blindly allowing them. More work is needed to extend this to mmap, but currently mmap doesn't go through usercopy, so hardened usercopy won't Oops the kernel.

* x86/mm/pat, /dev/mem: Remove superfluous error messageJiri Kosina2017-04-111-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 39380b80d72723282f0ea1d1bbf2294eae45013e upstream. Currently it's possible for broken (or malicious) userspace to flood a kernel log indefinitely with messages a-la Program dmidecode tried to access /dev/mem between f0000->100000 because range_is_allowed() is case of CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM being turned on dumps this information each and every time devmem_is_allowed() fails. Reportedly userspace that is able to trigger contignuous flow of these messages exists. It would be possible to rate limit this message, but that'd have a questionable value; the administrator wouldn't get information about all the failing accessess, so then the information would be both superfluous and incomplete at the same time :) Returning EPERM (which is what is actually happening) is enough indication for userspace what has happened; no need to log this particular error as some sort of special condition.
