The ELF_ET_DYN_BASE position was originally intended to keep loaders
away from ET_EXEC binaries. (For example, running "/lib/ld-linux.so.2
/bin/cat" might cause the subsequent load of /bin/cat into where the
loader had been loaded.)
With the advent of PIE (ET_DYN binaries with an INTERP Program Header),
ELF_ET_DYN_BASE continued to be used since the kernel was only looking
at ET_DYN. However, since ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is traditionally set at the
top 1/3rd of the TASK_SIZE, a substantial portion of the address space
is unused.
For 32-bit tasks when RLIMIT_STACK is set to RLIM_INFINITY, programs are
loaded above the mmap region. This means they can be made to collide
(CVE-2017-1000370) or nearly collide (CVE-2017-1000371) with
pathological stack regions.
Lowering ELF_ET_DYN_BASE solves both by moving programs below the mmap
region in all cases, and will now additionally avoid programs falling
back to the mmap region by enforcing MAP_FIXED for program loads (i.e.
if it would have collided with the stack, now it will fail to load
instead of falling back to the mmap region).
To allow for a lower ELF_ET_DYN_BASE, loaders (ET_DYN without INTERP)
are loaded into the mmap region, leaving space available for either an
ET_EXEC binary with a fixed location or PIE being loaded into mmap by
the loader. Only PIE programs are loaded offset from ELF_ET_DYN_BASE,
which means architectures can now safely lower their values without risk
of loaders colliding with their subsequently loaded programs.
For 64-bit, ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is best set to 4GB to allow runtimes to use
the entire 32-bit address space for 32-bit pointers.
Thanks to PaX Team, Daniel Micay, and Rik van Riel for inspiration and
suggestions on how to implement this solution.

We've encountered zombies that are waiting for a thread to exit that are
looping in ep_poll() almost endlessly although there is a pending
SIGKILL as a result of a group exit.
This happens because we always find ep_events_available() and fetch more
events and never are able to check for signal_pending() that would break
from the loop and return -EINTR.
Special case fatal signals and break immediately to guarantee that we
loop to fetch more events and delay making a timely exit.
It would also be possible to simply move the check for signal_pending()
higher than checking for ep_events_available(), but there have been no
reports of delayed signal handling other than SIGKILL preventing zombies
from exiting that would be fixed by this.
It fixes an issue for us where we have witnessed zombies sticking around
for at least O(minutes), but considering the code has been like this
forever and nobody else has complained that I have found, I would simply
queue it up for 4.12.

The boolean --color argument did not offer the ability to force
colourized output even if stdout is not a terminal. Change the format
of the argument to the familiar --color[=WHEN] construct as seen in
common Linux utilities such as git, ls and dmesg, which allows the user
to specify whether to colourize output "always", "never", or "auto" when
the output is a terminal. The default is "auto".
The old command-line uses of --color and --no-color are unchanged.

As of perl 5, version 26, subversion 0 (v5.26.0) some new warnings have

It seems perfectly reasonable to do as the warning suggests and simply

Add a block that identifies multiple line function definitions.
Save the function name into $context_function to improve the embedded
function name test.
Look for misplaced open brace on the function definition.
Emit an OPEN_BRACE error when the function definition is similar to
void foo(int arg1,
int arg2) {
Miscellanea:
o Remove the $realfile test in function declaration w/o named arguments test
o Comment the function declaration w/o named arguments test

gcc does generates stupid code sign extending data back and forth. Help
by using "unsigned int".
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-61 (-61)
function old new delta
_parse_integer 128 123 -5
It _still_ does generate useless MOVSX but I don't know how to delete it:
0000000000000070 <_parse_integer>:
...
a0: 89 c2 mov edx,eax
a2: 83 e8 30 sub eax,0x30
a5: 83 f8 09 cmp eax,0x9
a8: 76 11 jbe bb <_parse_integer+0x4b>
aa: 83 ca 20 or edx,0x20
ad: 0f be c2 ===> movsx eax,dl <===
useless
b0: 8d 50 9f lea edx,[rax-0x61]
b3: 83 fa 05 cmp edx,0x5
Patch also helps on embedded archs which generally only like "int". On
arm "and 0xff" is generated which is waste because all values used in
comparisons are positive.

This series of patches splits BUILD_BUG related macros out of
"include/linux/bug.h" into new file "include/linux/build_bug.h" (patch
5), and changes the pointer type checking in the `container_of()` macro
to deal with pointers of array type better (patch 6). Patches 1 to 4
are prerequisites.
Patches 2, 3, 4, and 5 have been inserted since the previous version of
this patch series. Patch 6 here corresponds to v3 and v4's patch 2.
Patch 1 was a prerequisite in v3 of this series to avoid a lot of
warnings when <linux/bug.h> was included by <linux/kernel.h>. That is
no longer relevant for v5 of the series, but I left it in because it was
acked by a Arnd Bergmann and Michal Nazarewicz.
Patches 2, 3, and 4 are some checkpatch clean-ups on
"include/linux/bug.h" before splitting out the BUILD_BUG stuff in patch
5.
Patch 5 splits the BUILD_BUG related macros out of "include/linux/bug.h"
into new file "include/linux/build_bug.h" because including
<linux/bug.h> in "include/linux/kernel.h" would result in build failures
due to circular dependencies.
Patch 6 changes the pointer type checking by `container_of()` to avoid
some incompatible pointer warnings when the dereferenced pointer has
array type.
1) asm-generic/bug.h: declare struct pt_regs; before function prototype
2) linux/bug.h: correct formatting of block comment
3) linux/bug.h: correct "(foo*)" should be "(foo *)"
4) linux/bug.h: correct "space required before that '-'"
5) bug: split BUILD_BUG stuff out into <linux/build_bug.h>
6) kernel.h: handle pointers to arrays better in container_of()
This patch (of 6):
The declaration of `__warn()` has `struct pt_regs *regs` as one of its
parameters. This can result in compiler warnings if `struct regs` is not
already declared. Add an empty declaration of `struct pt_regs` to avoid
the warnings.

For some unaligned memory accesses we have to check additional byte of
the shadow memory. Currently we load that byte speculatively to have
only single load + branch on the optimistic fast path.
However, this approach has some downsides:
- It's unaligned access, so this prevents porting KASAN on
architectures which doesn't support unaligned accesses.
- We have to map additional shadow page to prevent crash if speculative
load happens near the end of the mapped memory. This would
significantly complicate upcoming memory hotplug support.
I wasn't able to notice any performance degradation with this patch. So
these speculative loads is just a pain with no gain, let's remove them.

early_pfn_to_nid will return node 0 if both HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
and HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP are disabled. It seems we are safe now
because all architectures which support NUMA define one of them (with an
exception of alpha which however has CONFIG_NUMA marked as broken) so
this works as expected. It can get silently and subtly broken too
easily, though. Make sure we fail the compilation if NUMA is enabled
and there is no proper implementation for this function. If that ever
happens we know that either the specific configuration is invalid and
the fix should either disable NUMA or enable one of the above configs.
