ok guenther, jmc, tom, millert, deraadt
2018-04-12Implement MAP_STACK option for mmap(). Synchronous faults (pagefault andTheo de Raadt
syscall) confirm the stack register points at MAP_STACK memory, otherwise SIGSEGV is delivered. sigaltstack() and pthread_attr_setstack() are modified to create a MAP_STACK sub-region which satisfies alignment requirements. Observe that MAP_STACK can only be set/cleared by mmap(), which zeroes the contents of the region -- there is no mprotect() equivalent operation, so there is no MAP_STACK-adding gadget. This opportunistic software-emulation of a stack protection bit makes stack-pivot operations during ROPchain fragile (kind of like removing a tool from the toolbox). original discussion with tedu, uvm work by stefan, testing by mortimer ok kettenis
2018-04-09Fill in FRAME_PS after the fact. What a ridiculous design decision.Theo de Raadt
It would be better if this was filled in at trap time. ok guenther
2018-03-20Do not panic from ddb(4) when a lock requirement isn't fulfilled.Martin Pieuchot
Extend the logic already present for panic() to any DDB-related operation such that if ddb(4) is entered because of a fault or other trap it is still possible to call 'boot reboot'. While here stop printing splassert() messages as well, to not fill the buffer. ok visa@, deraadt@
2018-03-05#define _MAX_PAGE_SHIFT in MD _types.h as the maximum pagesize an archTheo de Raadt
needs (looking at you sgi, but others required this before). This is for the circumstances we need pagesize known at compile time, not getpagesize() runtime. Use it for malloc storage sizes, for shm, and to set pthread stack default sizes. The stack sizes were a mess, and pushing them towards page-aligned is healthy move (which will also be needed by the coming stack register checker) ok guenther kettenis, discussion with stefan
2018-02-19Remove almost unused `flags' argument of suser().Martin Pieuchot
The account flag `ASU' will no longer be set but that makes suser() mpsafe since it no longer mess with a per-process field. No objection from millert@, ok tedu@, bluhm@

2017-12-14fcntl(F_SETFL) invokes the FIONBIO and FIOASYNC ioctls internally, soPhilip Guenther
the memory devices (/dev/null, /dev/zero, etc) need to permit them. problem noted, tweak, and testing by jeremy@ ok deraadt@
2017-12-11In uvm Chuck decided backing store would not be allocated proactivelyTheo de Raadt
for blocks re-fetchable from the filesystem. However at reboot time, filesystems are unmounted, and since processes lack backing store they are killed. Since the scheduler is still running, in some cases init is killed... which drops us to ddb [noted by bluhm]. Solution is to convert filesystems to read-only [proposed by kettenis]. The tale follows: sys_reboot() should pass proc * to MD boot() to vfs_shutdown() which completes current IO with vfs_busy VB_WRITE|VB_WAIT, then calls VFS_MOUNT() with MNT_UPDATE | MNT_RDONLY, soon teaching us that *fs_mount() calls a copyin() late... so store the sizes in vfsconflist[] and move the copyin() to sys_mount()... and notice nfs_mount copyin() is size-variant, so kill legacy struct nfs_args3. Next we learn ffs_mount()'s MNT_UPDATE code is sharp and rusty especially wrt softdep, so fix some bugs adn add ~MNT_SOFTDEP to the downgrade. Some vnodes need a little more help, so tie them to &dead_vnops. ffs_mount calling DIOCCACHESYNC is causing a bit of grief still but this issue is seperate and will be dealt with in time. couple hundred reboots by bluhm and myself, advice from guenther and others at the hut
2017-12-04Change __mp_lock_held() to work with an arbitrary CPU info structure andMartin Pieuchot
extend ddb(4) "ps /o" output to print which CPU is currently holding the KERNEL_LOCK(). Tested by dhill@, ok visa@
2017-11-04Since rev 1.502 of rc(8) it creates a /bsd.booted hard link. At theFlorian Obser
end of rc we call reorder_kernel which creates a /obsd hard link to the same kernel. In the past obsd was only created when doing a manual make install in the kernel sources. There is no need for two backup hard links during boot, rearange the kernel Makefiles to restore previous behaviour and thus stopping reorder_kernel from scribbling over /obsd. Makes muscle memory of some kernel developers work again: /obsd can serve as a known good kernel; and there was much rejoycing... Discussed at length with benno, rpe, phessler and tb at p2k17. Seems like a good idea to deraadt. OK benno, phessler, rpe, tb

2017-10-29Finish TURBOchannel scatter/gather map code (i.e. make it work) andMartin Pieuchot
enable it when available (i.e. all DEC 3000 models but models 300). Tested on DEC 3000/600 (sgmap) and DEC 3000/300LX (no sgmap). from miod@
2017-10-20Make sure the logic deciding whether to use BWX operations in cia(4)Martin Pieuchot
operation uses the CPU capabilities, rather than a not-yet-initialized variable which will eventually be set to the CPU capabilities. from miod@

2017-09-28When option DDB_STRUCTINFO was removed from the kernel, too much fromPatrick Wildt
the kernel makefiles was removed which lead to C files not being re- compiled when a dependency changed. This can lead to panics in odd places and generally a broken system. ok deraadt@

ok deraadt@, jasper@
2017-07-25change -Os to -Oz all around the treeRobert Nagy
clang optimizes better for size with -Oz so use that as a default to avoid overflowing the ramdisk floppies. gcc now accepts -Oz as an alias for -Os. ok kettenis@
2017-07-18Stop automatically regenerating gap.o (and hence linking a new kernel)Theo Buehler
whenever make is issued. Only do this when there are actual source changes below /sys. This restores the behavior prior to the KARL implementation. Problem noticed and patiently explained by mpi implementation with a lot of help from espie ok mpi, espie, deraadt
2017-07-16Pass the linker from make environment to makegap.sh. This is (only)Visa Hankala
a partial solution to cross compiling the kernel with KARL. OK deraadt@ a while ago
2017-07-14fix GET_CURPCB on !MULTIPROCESSOR builds.David Gwynne
this lets GENERIC work as well as GENERIC.MP. it should also fix bsd.rd. tested by me on an es45. from a grumpy alpha user
2017-06-29kill RCSID macros; discussed with millertTheo de Raadt
2017-06-29put SYSTEM_SWAP_DEP out of its misery, it died in 1997, along with config.oldMarc Espie
"go for it" deraadt@
2017-06-25dull dependency for copying makegap.sh to obj, so that installsTheo de Raadt
without src and comp work. That is what we've designed for, but since we always have src and comp on our systems it is so easy to slide... problem first noted by rpe.
2017-06-22Generate a gap.link script, and use that to generate gap.o. On multi-ABITheo de Raadt
architectures we must also link against a gapdummy.o to repair the ABI of the resulting .o file. Woe is me. Also repair install: target to update the linkkit & hash when a kernel is installed. ok rpe tb mlarkin and tested by others also
2017-06-13newbsd: target which re-links a kernel. We cannot use the bsd: targetTheo de Raadt
since it has source dependencies, and relinking doesn't have any. Also the bsd: target is created by config(8)... worked on with rpe.
2017-06-12destroy lint remnants.Marc Espie
okay millert@ deraadt@
2017-06-11make vers.o not depend on gap.o using a trick, because it is piece ofTheo de Raadt
fiction participating only in the linkphase. tricks from rpe and espie
2017-06-11Use umask 077 instead of cp -p when installing the kernel as root.Alexander Bluhm
Otherwise owner of /bsd could be the build user with permissions inherited from the compile directory. OK deraadt@ tb@
2017-06-05Split early startup code out of locore.S into locore0.S. Adjust linkTheo de Raadt
run so that this locore0.o is always at the start of the executable. But randomize the link order of all other .o files in the kernel, so that their exec/rodata/data/bss segments land all over the place. Late during kernel boot, smash the startup code with traps so that it does not point to the other randomly placed code. It has be smashed, because alpha (insecurely in my view) runs in the KSEG0 space. As a result, the internal layout of every newly build bsd kernel is different from past kernels. Internal relative offsets are not known to an outside attacker. The only known offsets are in the startup code, which is gone. Ramdisk kernels cannot be compiled like this, because they are gzip'd. When the internal pointer references change, the compression dictionary bloats and results in poorer compression.
2017-06-05The arm* architectures edit the ld.script, creating a copy in the compileTheo de Raadt
directories. Copy it in the same way on other architectures, for the same effect. Something upcoming will want that file there anyways.
2017-06-03Create gap.S and gap.o with umask 077. Create lorder and bsd* with umask 007.Theo de Raadt
Prying eyes cannot look at the kernels in the compile directory. ok tb rpe, kernel developers seem unimpacted
