Dylan Yudaken bad3fbb256 docs: fault-injection: fix defaults
ignore-gfp-wait and ignore-gfp-highmem defaults are actually true (Y) in
both failslab and fail_page_alloc, not false as the docs suggest. See
page_alloc.c:3762 and failslab.c:13

At the same time use 'Y' instead of '1' in the example scripts just for
consistency. (though 1 would work)

Linus Torvalds ba1dc7f273 Char / Misc driver changes for 5.15-rc1
Here is the big set of char/misc driver changes for 5.15-rc1.
 
 Lots of different driver subsystems are being updated in here, notably:
 	- mhi subsystem update
 	- fpga subsystem update
 	- coresight/hwtracing subsystem update
 	- interconnect subsystem update
 	- nvmem subsystem update
 	- parport drivers update
 	- phy subsystem update
 	- soundwire subsystem update
 and there are some other char/misc drivers being updated as well:
 	- binder driver additions
 	- new misc drivers
 	- lkdtm driver updates
 	- mei driver updates
 	- sram driver updates
 	- other minor driver updates.
 
 Note, there are no habanna labs driver updates in this pull request,
 that will probably come later before -rc1 is out in a different request.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 problems.

Kevin Mitchell d1f278da6b lkdtm: replace SCSI_DISPATCH_CMD with SCSI_QUEUE_RQ
When scsi_dispatch_cmd was moved to scsi_lib.c and made static, some
compilers (i.e., at least gcc 8.4.0) decided to compile this
inline. This is a problem for lkdtm.ko, which inserted a kprobe
on this function for the SCSI_DISPATCH_CMD crashpoint.

Move this crashpoint one function up the call chain to
scsi_queue_rq. Though this is also a static function, it should never be
inlined because it is assigned as a structure entry. Therefore,
kprobe_register should always be able to find it.

Fault injection uses debugfs in a way that the provided values via sysfs
are interpreted as u64. Providing negative numbers results in an error:

/sys/kernel/debug/fail_function# echo -1 > times

Albert van der Linde 2c739ced58 lib, include/linux: add usercopy failure capability
Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3.

The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages
of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection.

syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use
this particular feature also.

The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions.
The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability
(copy_from_user, ...).  The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures
to x86.

This patch (of 3):

Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance
in usages of user memory access functions.

Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy
functions.  The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these
functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 113094f743 docs: add some directories to the main documentation index
The contents of those directories were orphaned at the documentation
body.

While those directories could likely be moved to be inside some guide,
I'm opting to just adding their indexes to the main one, removing the
:orphan: and adding the SPDX header.

For the drivers, the rationale is that the documentation contains
a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and admin-guide. So, better to keep them on
separate directories, as we've be doing with similar subsystem-specific
docs that were not split yet.

For the others, well... I'm too lazy to do the move. Also, it
seems to make sense to keep at least some of those at the main
dir (like kbuild, for example). In any case, a latter patch
could do the move.

    that, I think, will go to you directly later on.

  - Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
    function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
    understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
    unattractive and not fun to type.

Akinobu Mita bfc740938d fault-inject: make fail-nth read/write interface symmetric
The read interface for fail-nth looks a bit odd.  Read from this file
returns "NYYYY..." or "YYYYY..." (this makes me surprise when cat this
file).  Because there is no EOF condition.  The first character
indicates current->fail_nth is zero or not, and then current->fail_nth
is reset to zero.

Just returning task->fail_nth value is more natural to understand.

Dmitry Vyukov e41d58185f fault-inject: support systematic fault injection
Add /proc/self/task/<current-tid>/fail-nth file that allows failing
0-th, 1-st, 2-nd and so on calls systematically.
Excerpt from the added documentation:

 "Write to this file of integer N makes N-th call in the current task
  fail (N is 0-based). Read from this file returns a single char 'Y' or
  'N' that says if the fault setup with a previous write to this file
  was injected or not, and disables the fault if it wasn't yet injected.
  Note that this file enables all types of faults (slab, futex, etc).
  This setting takes precedence over all other generic settings like
  probability, interval, times, etc. But per-capability settings (e.g.
  fail_futex/ignore-private) take precedence over it. This feature is
  intended for systematic testing of faults in a single system call. See
  an example below"

Why add a new setting:
1. Existing settings are global rather than per-task.
   So parallel testing is not possible.
2. attr->interval is close but it depends on attr->count
   which is non reset to 0, so interval does not work as expected.
3. Trying to model this with existing settings requires manipulations
   of all of probability, interval, times, space, task-filter and
   unexposed count and per-task make-it-fail files.
4. Existing settings are per-failure-type, and the set of failure
   types is potentially expanding.
5. make-it-fail can't be changed by unprivileged user and aggressive
   stress testing better be done from an unprivileged user.
   Similarly, this would require opening the debugfs files to the
   unprivileged user, as he would need to reopen at least times file
   (not possible to pre-open before dropping privs).

The proposed interface solves all of the above (see the example).

We want to integrate this into syzkaller fuzzer.  A prototype has found
10 bugs in kernel in first day of usage:

  https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/syzkaller/%22FAULT_INJECTION%22%7Csort:relevance

I've made the current interface work with all types of our sandboxes.
For setuid the secret sauce was prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 1, 0, 0, 0) to
make /proc entries non-root owned.  So I am fine with the current
version of the code.

and to check if they are allowed, e.g. PRECHANGEMTU and CHANGEMTU
afterwards. Until recently I had to run failure tests by injecting
a custom module, but now this infrastructure makes it trivial to test
these failure paths. Some of the recent bugs I fixed were found using
this module.

Davidlohr Bueso ab51fbab39 futex: Fault/error injection capabilities
Although futexes are well known for being a royal pita,
we really have very little debugging capabilities - except
for relying on tglx's eye half the time.

By simply making use of the existing fault-injection machinery,
we can improve this situation, allowing generating artificial
uaddress faults and deadlock scenarios. Of course, when this is
disabled in production systems, the overhead for failure checks
is practically zero -- so this is very cheap at the same time.
Future work would be nice to now enhance trinity to make use of
this.

There is a special tunable 'ignore-private', which can filter
out private futexes. Given the tsk->make_it_fail filter and
this option, pi futexes can be narrowed down pretty closely.

Akinobu Mita 8d43828814 fault-injection: notifier error injection
This patchset provides kernel modules that can be used to test the error
handling of notifier call chain failures by injecting artifical errors to
the following notifier chain callbacks.

 * CPU notifier
 * PM notifier
 * memory hotplug notifier
 * powerpc pSeries reconfig notifier

Example: Inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM)

  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu
  # echo -1 > actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error
  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
  bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted

The patchset also adds cpu and memory hotplug tests to
tools/testing/selftests These tests first do simple online and offline
test and then do fault injection tests if notifier error injection
module is available.

This patch:

The notifier error injection provides the ability to inject artifical
errors to specified notifier chain callbacks.  It is useful to test the
error handling of notifier call chain failures.

This adds common basic functions to define which type of events can be
fail and to initialize the debugfs interface to control what error code
should be returned and which event should be failed.

Akinobu Mita dd48c085c1 fault-injection: add ability to export fault_attr in arbitrary directory
init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs.
But it can only export it in debugfs root directory.

Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject
data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem.

The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and
export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like
/sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request.

init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request.  So this
introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a
directory in the arbitrary directory and replace
init_fault_attr_dentries().

Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to
provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here:

  http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/

Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before)
or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash.

The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not
used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs
file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available.

./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file.

And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is
existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation,
Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem.

debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah

Akinobu Mita 329409aeda [PATCH] fault injection: stacktrace filtering
This patch provides stacktrace filtering feature.

The stacktrace filter allows failing only for the caller you are
interested in.

For example someone may want to inject kmalloc() failures into
only e100 module. they want to inject not only direct kmalloc() call,
but also indirect allocation, too.

- e100_poll --> netif_receive_skb --> packet_rcv_spkt --> skb_clone
  --> kmem_cache_alloc

This patch enables to detect function calls like this by stacktrace
and inject failures. The script Documentaion/fault-injection/failmodule.sh
helps it.

The range of text section of loaded e100 is expected to be
[/sys/module/e100/sections/.text, /sys/module/e100/sections/.exit.text)

So failmodule.sh stores these values into /debug/failslab/address-start
and /debug/failslab/address-end. The maximum stacktrace depth is specified
by /debug/failslab/stacktrace-depth.

Please see the example that demonstrates how to inject slab allocation
failures only for a specific module
in Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt

   enable CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS.

2. Build and boot with this kernel

3. Configure fault-injection capabilities behavior by boot option or debugfs

   - Boot option

     failslab=

     fail_make_request=

   - Debugfs

     /debug/failslab/*
     /debug/fail_page_alloc/*
