Pull kthread updates from Eric Biederman: "This updates init and user mode helper tasks to be ordinary user mode tasks. Commit 40966e316f86 ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for all kthreads") caused init and the user mode helper threads that call kernel_execve to have struct kthread allocated for them. This struct kthread going away during execve in turned made a use after free of struct kthread possible. Here, commit 343f4c49f243 ("kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for init and umh") is enough to fix the use after free and is simple enough to be backportable. The rest of the changes pass struct kernel_clone_args to clean things up and cause the code to make sense. In making init and the user mode helpers tasks purely user mode tasks I ran into two complications. The function task_tick_numa was detecting tasks without an mm by testing for the presence of PF_KTHREAD. The initramfs code in populate_initrd_image was using flush_delayed_fput to ensuere the closing of all it's file descriptors was complete, and flush_delayed_fput does not work in a userspace thread. I have looked and looked and more complications and in my code review I have not found any, and neither has anyone else with the code sitting in linux-next" * tag 'kthread-cleanups-for-v5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: sched: Update task_tick_numa to ignore tasks without an mm fork: Stop allowing kthreads to call execve fork: Explicitly set PF_KTHREAD init: Deal with the init process being a user mode process fork: Generalize PF_IO_WORKER handling fork: Explicity test for idle tasks in copy_thread fork: Pass struct kernel_clone_args into copy_thread kthread: Don't allocate kthread_struct for init and umh

nios2: use fallback for random_get_entropy() instead of zero

2022-05-13T21:59:23+00:00

In the event that random_get_entropy() can't access a cycle counter or similar, falling back to returning 0 is really not the best we can do. Instead, at least calling random_get_entropy_fallback() would be preferable, because that always needs to return _something_, even falling back to jiffies eventually. It's not as though random_get_entropy_fallback() is super high precision or guaranteed to be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all the time is better than returning zero all the time.

kbuild: factor out the common installation code into scripts/install.sh

2022-05-11T12:45:53+00:00

Many architectures have similar install.sh scripts. The first half is really generic; it verifies that the kernel image and System.map exist, then executes ~/bin/${INSTALLKERNEL} or /sbin/${INSTALLKERNEL} if available. The second half is kind of arch-specific; it copies the kernel image and System.map to the destination, but the code is slightly different. Factor out the generic part into scripts/install.sh.

fork: Generalize PF_IO_WORKER handling

2022-05-07T14:01:59+00:00

Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER). This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs in kernel mode to use this functionality. The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly differently than user space tasks that start with a function. The functions that created tasks that start with a function have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of ".stack" and ".stack_size". These functions are fork_idle(), create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread(). Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220506141512.516114-4-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

fork: Pass struct kernel_clone_args into copy_thread

2022-05-07T14:01:48+00:00

With io_uring we have started supporting tasks that are for most purposes user space tasks that exclusively run code in kernel mode. The kernel task that exec's init and tasks that exec user mode helpers are also user mode tasks that just run kernel code until they call kernel execve. Pass kernel_clone_args into copy_thread so these oddball tasks can be supported more cleanly and easily. v2: Fix spelling of kenrel_clone_args on h8300 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220506141512.516114-2-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Much of that confusion was around task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the semantics clearer). For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged.

arch: Add pmd_pfn() where it is missing
