3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 76d5692a58031696e282384cbd893832bc92bd76 upstream. The ram backend wasn't always initializing its spinlock correctly. Since it was coming from kzalloc memory, though, it was harmless on architectures that initialize unlocked spinlocks to 0 (at least x86 and ARM). This also fixes a possibly ignored flag setting too. When running under CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the following Oops was visible: [ 0.760836] persistent_ram: found existing buffer, size 29988, start 29988 [ 0.765112] persistent_ram: found existing buffer, size 30105, start 30105 [ 0.769435] persistent_ram: found existing buffer, size 118542, start 118542 [ 0.785960] persistent_ram: found existing buffer, size 0, start 0 [ 0.786098] persistent_ram: found existing buffer, size 0, start 0 [ 0.786131] pstore: using zlib compression [ 0.790716] BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, swapper/0/1 [ 0.790729] lock: 0xffffffc0d1ca9bb0, .magic: 00000000, .owner: <none>/-1, .owner_cpu: 0 [ 0.790742] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.10.0-rc2+ #913 [ 0.790747] Hardware name: Google Kevin (DT) [ 0.790750] Call trace: [ 0.790768] [<ffffff900808ae88>] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x2bc [ 0.790780] [<ffffff900808b164>] show_stack+0x20/0x28 [ 0.790794] [<ffffff9008460ee0>] dump_stack+0xa4/0xcc [ 0.790809] [<ffffff9008113cfc>] spin_dump+0xe0/0xf0 [ 0.790821] [<ffffff9008113d3c>] spin_bug+0x30/0x3c [ 0.790834] [<ffffff9008113e28>] do_raw_spin_lock+0x50/0x1b8 [ 0.790846] [<ffffff9008a2d2ec>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x54/0x6c [ 0.790862] [<ffffff90083ac3b4>] buffer_size_add+0x48/0xcc [ 0.790875] [<ffffff90083acb34>] persistent_ram_write+0x60/0x11c [ 0.790888] [<ffffff90083aab1c>] ramoops_pstore_write_buf+0xd4/0x2a4 [ 0.790900] [<ffffff90083a9d3c>] pstore_console_write+0xf0/0x134 [ 0.790912] [<ffffff900811c304>] console_unlock+0x48c/0x5e8 [ 0.790923] [<ffffff900811da18>] register_console+0x3b0/0x4d4 [ 0.790935] [<ffffff90083aa7d0>] pstore_register+0x1a8/0x234 [ 0.790947] [<ffffff90083ac250>] ramoops_probe+0x6b8/0x7d4 [ 0.790961] [<ffffff90085ca548>] platform_drv_probe+0x7c/0xd0 [ 0.790972] [<ffffff90085c76ac>] driver_probe_device+0x1b4/0x3bc [ 0.790982] [<ffffff90085c7ac8>] __device_attach_driver+0xc8/0xf4 [ 0.790996] [<ffffff90085c4bfc>] bus_for_each_drv+0xb4/0xe4 [ 0.791006] [<ffffff90085c7414>] __device_attach+0xd0/0x158 [ 0.791016] [<ffffff90085c7b18>] device_initial_probe+0x24/0x30 [ 0.791026] [<ffffff90085c648c>] bus_probe_device+0x50/0xe4 [ 0.791038] [<ffffff90085c35b8>] device_add+0x3a4/0x76c [ 0.791051] [<ffffff90087d0e84>] of_device_add+0x74/0x84 [ 0.791062] [<ffffff90087d19b8>] of_platform_device_create_pdata+0xc0/0x100 [ 0.791073] [<ffffff90087d1a2c>] of_platform_device_create+0x34/0x40 [ 0.791086] [<ffffff900903c910>] of_platform_default_populate_init+0x58/0x78 [ 0.791097] [<ffffff90080831fc>] do_one_initcall+0x88/0x160 [ 0.791109] [<ffffff90090010ac>] kernel_init_freeable+0x264/0x31c [ 0.791123] [<ffffff9008a25bd0>] kernel_init+0x18/0x11c [ 0.791133] [<ffffff9008082ec0>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50 [ 0.793717] console [pstore-1] enabled [ 0.797845] pstore: Registered ramoops as persistent store backend [ 0.804647] ramoops: attached 0x100000@0xf7edc000, ecc: 0/0 Fixes: 663deb47880f ("pstore: Allow prz to control need for locking") Fixes: 109704492ef6 ("pstore: Make spinlock per zone instead of global") Reported-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/pstore/ram_core.c | 12 +++++++----- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) --- a/fs/pstore/ram_core.c +++ b/fs/pstore/ram_core.c @@ -463,8 +463,7 @@ static int persistent_ram_buffer_map(phy } static int persistent_ram_post_init(struct persistent_ram_zone *prz, u32 sig, - struct persistent_ram_ecc_info *ecc_info, - unsigned long flags) + struct persistent_ram_ecc_info *ecc_info) { int ret; @@ -490,10 +489,9 @@ static int persistent_ram_post_init(stru prz->buffer->sig); } + /* Rewind missing or invalid memory area. */ prz->buffer->sig = sig; persistent_ram_zap(prz); - prz->buffer_lock = __RAW_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(buffer_lock); - prz->flags = flags; return 0; } @@ -529,11 +527,15 @@ struct persistent_ram_zone *persistent_r goto err; } + /* Initialize general buffer state. */ + prz->buffer_lock = __RAW_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(buffer_lock); + prz->flags = flags; + ret = persistent_ram_buffer_map(start, size, prz, memtype); if (ret) goto err; - ret = persistent_ram_post_init(prz, sig, ecc_info, flags); + ret = persistent_ram_post_init(prz, sig, ecc_info); if (ret) goto err;
