This series backports the patchset
"exit: Put an upper limit on how often we can oops"
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20221117233838.give.484-kees@kernel.org/T/#u)
to 5.4, as recommended at
https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2023/01/exploiting-null-dereferences-in-linux.html
This follows the backports to 5.10 and 5.15 which already released.

This required backporting various prerequisite patches.

I've tested that oops_limit and warn_limit work correctly on x86_64.

David Gow (1):
  mm: kasan: do not panic if both panic_on_warn and kasan_multishot set

Eric W. Biederman (2):
  exit: Add and use make_task_dead.
  objtool: Add a missing comma to avoid string concatenation

Jann Horn (1):
  exit: Put an upper limit on how often we can oops

Kees Cook (7):
  exit: Expose "oops_count" to sysfs
  exit: Allow oops_limit to be disabled
  panic: Consolidate open-coded panic_on_warn checks
  panic: Introduce warn_limit
  panic: Expose "warn_count" to sysfs
  docs: Fix path paste-o for /sys/kernel/warn_count
  exit: Use READ_ONCE() for all oops/warn limit reads

Nathan Chancellor (3):
  hexagon: Fix function name in die()
  h8300: Fix build errors from do_exit() to make_task_dead() transition
  csky: Fix function name in csky_alignment() and die()

Randy Dunlap (1):
  ia64: make IA64_MCA_RECOVERY bool instead of tristate

Tiezhu Yang (1):
  panic: unset panic_on_warn inside panic()

Xiaoming Ni (1):
  sysctl: add a new register_sysctl_init() interface

From: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@huawei.com>

commit 3ddd9a808cee7284931312f2f3e854c9617f44b2 upstream.

Patch series "sysctl: first set of kernel/sysctl cleanups", v2.

Finally had time to respin the series of the work we had started last
year on cleaning up the kernel/sysct.c kitchen sink.  People keeps
stuffing their sysctls in that file and this creates a maintenance
burden.  So this effort is aimed at placing sysctls where they actually
belong.

I'm going to split patches up into series as there is quite a bit of
work.

This first set adds register_sysctl_init() for uses of registerting a
sysctl on the init path, adds const where missing to a few places,
generalizes common values so to be more easy to share, and starts the
move of a few kernel/sysctl.c out where they belong.

The majority of rework on v2 in this first patch set is 0-day fixes.
Eric Biederman's feedback is later addressed in subsequent patch sets.

I'll only post the first two patch sets for now.  We can address the
rest once the first two patch sets get completely reviewed / Acked.

This patch (of 9):

The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.

To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong.  The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.

Today though folks heavily rely on tables on kernel/sysctl.c so they can
easily just extend this table with their needed sysctls.  In order to
help users move their sysctls out we need to provide a helper which can
be used during code initialization.

We special-case the initialization use of register_sysctl() since it
*is* safe to fail, given all that sysctls do is provide a dynamic
interface to query or modify at runtime an existing variable.  So the
use case of register_sysctl() on init should *not* stop if the sysctls
don't end up getting registered.  It would be counter productive to stop
boot if a simple sysctl registration failed.

Provide a helper for init then, and document the recommended init levels
to use for callers of this routine.  We will later use this in
subsequent patches to start slimming down kernel/sysctl.c tables and
moving sysctl registration to the code which actually needs these
sysctls.

From: Tiezhu Yang <yangtiezhu@loongson.cn>

commit 1a2383e8b84c0451fd9b1eec3b9aab16f30b597c upstream.

In the current code, the following three places need to unset
panic_on_warn before calling panic() to avoid recursive panics:

kernel/kcsan/report.c: print_report()
kernel/sched/core.c: __schedule_bug()
mm/kfence/report.c: kfence_report_error()

In order to avoid copy-pasting "panic_on_warn = 0" all over the places,
it is better to move it inside panic() and then remove it from the other
places.

From: David Gow <davidgow@google.com>

commit be4f1ae978ffe98cc95ec49ceb95386fb4474974 upstream.

KASAN errors will currently trigger a panic when panic_on_warn is set.
This renders kasan_multishot useless, as further KASAN errors won't be
reported if the kernel has already paniced.  By making kasan_multishot
disable this behaviour for KASAN errors, we can still have the benefits of
panic_on_warn for non-KASAN warnings, yet be able to use kasan_multishot.

This is particularly important when running KASAN tests, which need to
trigger multiple KASAN errors: previously these would panic the system if
panic_on_warn was set, now they can run (and will panic the system should
non-KASAN warnings show up).

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

commit 0e25498f8cd43c1b5aa327f373dd094e9a006da7 upstream.

There are two big uses of do_exit.  The first is it's design use to be
the guts of the exit(2) system call.  The second use is to terminate
a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer
in kernel code.

Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as
do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle
catastrophic failure.  In time this can probably be reduced to just a
light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so
that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new
concept.

Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic
task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code
is doing.

As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit
rewind_stack_and_make_dead.

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

commit 1fb466dff904e4a72282af336f2c355f011eec61 upstream.

Recently the kbuild robot reported two new errors:

>> lib/kunit/kunit-example-test.o: warning: objtool: .text.unlikely: unexpected end of section
>> arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.o: warning: objtool: oops_end() falls through to next function show_opcodes()

I don't know why they did not occur in my test setup but after digging
it I realized I had accidentally dropped a comma in
tools/objtool/check.c when I renamed rewind_stack_do_exit to
rewind_stack_and_make_dead.

Add that comma back to fix objtool errors.

commit ab4ababdf77ccc56c7301c751dff49c79709c51c upstream.

When building ARCH=h8300 defconfig:

arch/h8300/kernel/traps.c: In function 'die':
arch/h8300/kernel/traps.c:109:2: error: implicit declaration of function

   54 |  make_dead_task(SIGKILL);
      |  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The function's name is make_task_dead(), change it so there is no more
build error.

Additionally, include linux/sched/task.h in arch/h8300/kernel/traps.c
to avoid the same error because do_exit()'s declaration is in kernel.h
but make_task_dead()'s is in task.h, which is not included in traps.c.

From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>

commit dbecf9b8b8ce580f4e11afed9d61e8aa294cddd2 upstream.

In linux-next, IA64_MCA_RECOVERY uses the (new) function
make_task_dead(), which is not exported for use by modules.  Instead of
exporting it for one user, convert IA64_MCA_RECOVERY to be a bool
Kconfig symbol.

In a config file from "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>" for a
different problem, this linker error was exposed when
CONFIG_IA64_MCA_RECOVERY=m.

Fixes this build error:

  ERROR: modpost: "make_task_dead" [arch/ia64/kernel/mca_recovery.ko] undefined!

From: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>

commit d4ccd54d28d3c8598e2354acc13e28c060961dbb upstream.

Many Linux systems are configured to not panic on oops; but allowing an
attacker to oops the system **really** often can make even bugs that look
completely unexploitable exploitable (like NULL dereferences and such) if
each crash elevates a refcount by one or a lock is taken in read mode, and
this causes a counter to eventually overflow.

The most interesting counters for this are 32 bits wide (like open-coded
refcounts that don't use refcount_t). (The ldsem reader count on 32-bit
platforms is just 16 bits, but probably nobody cares about 32-bit platforms
that much nowadays.)

So let's panic the system if the kernel is constantly oopsing.

The speed of oopsing 2^32 times probably depends on several factors, like
how long the stack trace is and which unwinder you're using; an empirically
important one is whether your console is showing a graphical environment or
a text console that oopses will be printed to.
In a quick single-threaded benchmark, it looks like oopsing in a vfork()
child with a very short stack trace only takes ~510 microseconds per run
when a graphical console is active; but switching to a text console that
oopses are printed to slows it down around 87x, to ~45 milliseconds per
run.
(Adding more threads makes this faster, but the actual oops printing
happens under &die_lock on x86, so you can maybe speed this up by a factor
of around 2 and then any further improvement gets eaten up by lock
contention.)

It looks like it would take around 8-12 days to overflow a 32-bit counter
with repeated oopsing on a multi-core X86 system running a graphical
environment; both me (in an X86 VM) and Seth (with a distro kernel on
normal hardware in a standard configuration) got numbers in that ballpark.

12 days aren't *that* short on a desktop system, and you'd likely need much
longer on a typical server system (assuming that people don't run graphical
desktop environments on their servers), and this is a *very* noisy and
violent approach to exploiting the kernel; and it also seems to take orders
of magnitude longer on some machines, probably because stuff like EFI
pstore will slow it down a ton if that's active.

commit 9db89b41117024f80b38b15954017fb293133364 upstream.

Since Oops count is now tracked and is a fairly interesting signal, add
the entry /sys/kernel/oops_count to expose it to userspace.

Several run-time checkers (KASAN, UBSAN, KFENCE, KCSAN, sched) roll
their own warnings, and each check "panic_on_warn". Consolidate this
into a single function so that future instrumentation can be added in

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

commit 9fc9e278a5c0b708eeffaf47d6eb0c82aa74ed78 upstream.

Like oops_limit, add warn_limit for limiting the number of warnings when
panic_on_warn is not set.

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

commit 8b05aa26336113c4cea25f1c333ee8cd4fc212a6 upstream.

Since Warn count is now tracked and is a fairly interesting signal, add
the entry /sys/kernel/warn_count to expose it to userspace.

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

commit 00dd027f721e0458418f7750d8a5a664ed3e5994 upstream.

Running "make htmldocs" shows that "/sys/kernel/oops_count" was
duplicated. This should have been "warn_count":

  Warning: /sys/kernel/oops_count is defined 2 times:
  ./Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-warn_count:0
  ./Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-oops_count:0

Fix the typo.

commit 7535b832c6399b5ebfc5b53af5c51dd915ee2538 upstream.

Use a temporary variable to take full advantage of READ_ONCE() behavior.
Without this, the report (and even the test) might be out of sync with
the initial test.
