2021-07-25binfmt: remove support for em86 (alpha only)David Hildenbrand1-15/+0
We have a fairly specific alpha binary loader in Linux: running x86 (i386, i486) binaries via the em86 [1] emulator. As noted in the Kconfig option, the same behavior can be achieved via binfmt_misc, for example, more nowadays used for running qemu-user. An example on how to get binfmt_misc running with em86 can be found in Documentation/admin-guide/binfmt-misc.rst The defconfig does not have CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86=y set. And doing a make defconfig && make olddefconfig results in # CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86 is not set ... as we don't seem to have any supported Linux distirbution for alpha anymore, there isn't really any "default" user of that feature anymore. Searching for "CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86=y" reveals mostly discussions from around 20 years ago, like [2] describing how to get netscape via em86 running via em86, or [3] discussing that running wine or installing Win 3.11 through em86 would be a nice feature. The latest binaries available for em86 are from 2000, version 2.2.1 [4] -- which translates to "unsupported"; further, em86 doesn't even work with glibc-2.x but only with glibc-2.0 [4, 5]. These are clear signs that there might not be too many em86 users out there, especially users relying on modern Linux kernels. Even though the code footprint is relatively small, let's just get rid of this blast from the past that's effectively unused.

2021-04-19binfmt_flat: allow not offsetting data startDamien Le Moal1-0/+3
Commit 2217b9826246 ("binfmt_flat: revert "binfmt_flat: don't offset the data start"") restored offsetting the start of the data section by a number of words defined by MAX_SHARED_LIBS. As a result, since MAX_SHARED_LIBS is never 0, a gap between the text and data sections always exists. For architectures which cannot support a such gap between the text and data sections (e.g. riscv nommu), flat binary programs cannot be executed. To allow an architecture to request no data start offset to allow for contiguous text and data sections for binaries flagged with FLAT_FLAG_RAM, introduce the new config option CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET. Using this new option, the macro DATA_START_OFFSET_WORDS is conditionally defined in binfmt_flat.c to MAX_SHARED_LIBS for architectures tolerating or needing the data start offset (CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET disabled case) and to 0 when CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET is enabled. DATA_START_OFFSET_WORDS is used in load_flat_file() to calculate the data section length and start position.

2021-01-20c6x: remove architectureArnd Bergmann1-1/+1
The c6x architecture was added to the kernel in 2011 at a time when running Linux on DSPs was widely seen as the logical evolution. It appears the trend has gone back to running Linux on Arm based SoCs with DSP, using a better supported software ecosystem, and having better real-time behavior for the DSP code. An example of this is TI's own Keystone2 platform. The upstream kernel port appears to no longer have any users. Mark Salter remained avaialable to review patches, but mentioned that he no longer has access to working hardware himself. Without any users, it's best to just remove the code completely to reduce the work for cross-architecture code changes. Many thanks to Mark for maintaining the code for the past ten years.

2021-01-06Kconfig: regularize selection of CONFIG_BINFMT_ELFAl Viro1-1/+1
with mips converted to use of fs/config_binfmt_elf.c, there's no need to keep selects of that thing all over arch/* - we can simply turn into def_bool y if COMPAT && BINFMT_ELF (in fs/Kconfig.binfmt) and get rid of all selects. Several architectures got those selects wrong (e.g. you could end up with sparc64 sans BINFMT_ELF, with select violating dependencies, etc.) Randy Dunlap has spotted some of those; IMO this is simpler than his fix, but it depends upon the stuff that would need to be backported, so we might end up using his variant for -stable.

2020-03-16elf: Allow arch to tweak initial mmap prot flagsDave Martin1-0/+3
An arch may want to tweak the mmap prot flags for an ELFexecutable's initial mappings. For example, arm64 is going to need to add PROT_BTI for executable pages in an ELF process whose executable is marked as using Branch Target Identification (an ARMv8.5-A control flow integrity feature). So that this can be done in a generic way, add a hook arch_elf_adjust_prot() to modify the prot flags as desired: arches can select CONFIG_HAVE_ELF_PROT and implement their own backend where necessary. By default, leave the prot flags unchanged.

This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, and x86.

2014-11-24binfmt_elf: allow arch code to examine PT_LOPROC ... PT_HIPROC headersPaul Burton1-0/+3
MIPS is introducing new variants of its O32 ABI which differ in their handling of floating point, in order to enable a gradual transition towards a world where mips32 binaries can take advantage of new hardware features only available when configured for certain FP modes. In order to do this ELF binaries are being augmented with a new section that indicates, amongst other things, the FP mode requirements of the binary. The presence & location of such a section is indicated by a program header in the PT_LOPROC ... PT_HIPROC range. In order to allow the MIPS architecture code to examine the program header & section in question, pass all program headers in this range to an architecture-specific arch_elf_pt_proc function. This function may return an error if the header is deemed invalid or unsuitable for the system, in which case that error will be returned from load_elf_binary and upwards through the execve syscall. A means is required for the architecture code to make a decision once it is known that all such headers have been seen, but before it is too late to return from an execve syscall. For this purpose the arch_check_elf function is added, and called once, after all PT_LOPROC to PT_HIPROC headers have been passed to arch_elf_pt_proc but before the code which invoked execve has been lost. This enables the architecture code to make a decision based upon all the headers present in an ELF binary and its interpreter, as is required to forbid conflicting FP ABI requirements between an ELF & its interpreter. In order to allow data to be stored throughout the calls to the above functions, struct arch_elf_state is introduced. Finally a variant of the SET_PERSONALITY macro is introduced which accepts a pointer to the struct arch_elf_state, allowing it to act based upon state observed from the architecture specific program headers.

2013-04-30fs: make binfmt support for #! scripts modular and removableJosh Triplett1-0/+14
Add a new configuration option CONFIG_BINFMT_SCRIPT to configure support for interpreted scripts starting with "#!"; allow compiling out that support, or building it as a module. Embedded systems running exclusively compiled binaries could leave this support out, and systems that don't need scripts before mounting the root filesystem can build this as a module.

2012-10-06coredump: make core dump functionality optionalAlex Kelly1-0/+8
Adds an expert Kconfig option, CONFIG_COREDUMP, which allows disabling of core dump. This saves approximately 2.6k in the compiled kernel, and complements CONFIG_ELF_CORE, which now depends on it. CONFIG_COREDUMP also disables coredump-related sysctls, except for suid_dumpable and related functions, which are necessary for ptrace.

2012-05-15C6X: add support to build with BINFMT_ELF_FDPICMark Salter1-1/+1
C6x userspace supports a shared library mechanism called DSBT for systems with no MMU. DSBT is similar to FDPIC in allowing shared text segments and private copies of data segments without an MMU. Both methods access data using a base register and offset. With FDPIC, the caller of an external function sets up the base register for the callee. With DSBT, the called function sets up its own base register. Other details differ but both userspaces need the same thing from the kernel loader: a map of where each ELF segment was loaded. The FDPIC loader already provides this, so DSBT just uses it. This patch enables BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC by default for C6X and provides the necessary architecture hooks for the generic loader.

2012-01-10fs: binfmt_elf: create Kconfig variable for PIE randomizationDavid Daney1-0/+3
Randomization of PIE load address is hard coded in binfmt_elf.c for X86 and ARM. Create a new Kconfig variable (CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE) for this and use it instead. Thus architecture specific policy is pushed out of the generic binfmt_elf.c and into the architecture Kconfig files. X86 and ARM Kconfigs are modified to select the new variable so there is no change in behavior. A follow on patch will select it for MIPS too.

The userland ELF tools have been coping with partial-segments core files for a few years now. Multiple distro builds are now setting this option. It behooves everyone who ever deals with core files to have more info dumped in there, especially as more and more people's compilers are producing build IDs. Make it the default. Anyone using older tools confused by these core files can configure this option off, or just change /proc/PID/coredump_filter after boot.

This adds a kconfig option to change the /proc/PID/coredump_filter default. Fedora has been carrying a trivial patch to change the hard-wired value for this default, since Fedora 8. The default default can't change safely because there are old GDB versions out there (all before 6.7) that are confused by the core dump files created by the MMF_DUMP_ELF_HEADERS setting.

HAVE_AOUT doesn't quite do the same thing as the recently removed ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT config option. That was set even on platforms where binfmt_aout isn't supported, although it's not entirely clear why.

2008-02-08aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUTDavid Howells1-1/+2
Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set. Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case. Not only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either. To make this work, this patch also does the following: (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT. (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT core dumping code. (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline. This is then included only where needed. This means that this bit of arch code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than the core kernel. (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not needed) and FRV. This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT format is available.

This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561 (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP, BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards. The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean, orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single instruction-set architecture. The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete documentation, including "getting started" guides available at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for bfin-linux-uclibc This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution, uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can be found at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel [m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl: balance parenthesis in blackfin header files] Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Mariusz Kozlowski <m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl> Signed-off-by: Aubrey Li <aubrey.li@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Jie Zhang <jie.zhang@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
