[ Upstream commit 9e70cbd11b03889c92462cf52edb2bd023c798fa ]

Initialising the hwrng struct with zeros causes a
compile-time sparse warning:

 $ ARCH=um make -j10 W=1 C=1 CF='-fdiagnostic-prefix -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__'
 ...
 CHECK   arch/um/drivers/random.c
 arch/um/drivers/random.c:31:31: sparse: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer

Fix the warning by not initialising the hwrng struct
with zeros as it is initialised anyway during module
init.

<id>urn:sha1:02d5761c1e90a6b5c7a8f7e256346eeace5d4c3c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 0b9ba6135d7f18b82f3d8bebb55ded725ba88e0e upstream.

UML generally does not provide access to special CPU instructions like
RDRAND, and execution tends to be rather deterministic, with no real
hardware interrupts, making good randomness really very hard, if not
all together impossible. Not only is this a security eyebrow raiser, but
it's also quite annoying when trying to do various pieces of UML-based
automation that takes a long time to boot, if ever.

Fix this by trivially calling getrandom() in the host and using that
seed as "bootloader randomness", which initializes the rng immediately
at UML boot.

The old behavior can be restored the same way as on any other arch, by
way of CONFIG_TRUST_BOOTLOADER_RANDOMNESS=n or
random.trust_bootloader=0. So seen from that perspective, this just
makes UML act like other archs, which is positive in its own right.

Additionally, wire up arch_get_random_{int,long}() in the same way, so
that reseeds can also make use of the host RNG, controllable by
CONFIG_TRUST_CPU_RANDOMNESS and random.trust_cpu, per usual.

[ Upstream commit d5a9597d6916a76663085db984cb8fe97f0a5c56 ]

Today, all possible serial lines (ssl*=) as well as all
possible consoles (con*=) each share a single interrupt
(with a fixed number) with others of the same type.

Now, if you have two lines, say ssl0 and ssl1, and one
of them is connected to an fd you cannot read (e.g. a
file), but the other gets a read interrupt, then both
of them get the interrupt since it's shared. Then, the
read() call will return EOF, since it's a file being
written and there's nothing to read (at least not at
the current offset, at the end).

Unfortunately, this is treated as a read error, and we
close this line, losing all the possible output.

It might be possible to work around this and make the
IRQ sharing work, however, now that we have dynamically
allocated IRQs that are easy to use, simply use that to
achieve separating between the events; then there's no
interrupt for that line and we never attempt the read
in the first place, thus not closing the line.

This manifested itself in the wifi hostap/hwsim tests
where the parallel script communicates via one serial
console and the kernel messages go to another (a file)
and sending data on the communication console caused
the kernel messages to stop flowing into the file.

commit 57ae0b67b747031bc41fb44643aa5344ab58607e upstream.

The previous fix here was only partially correct, it did
result in returning a proper error value in case of error,
but it also clobbered the pid that we need to return from
this function (not just zero for success).

As a result, it returned 0 here, but later this is treated
as a pid and used to kill the process, but since it's now
0 we kill(0, SIGKILL), which makes UML kill itself rather
than just the helper thread.

Fix that and make it more obvious by using a separate
variable for the pid.

commit 365719035526e8eda214a1cedb2e1c96e969a0d7 upstream.

If DMA (PCI over virtio) is enabled, then some drivers may
enable CONFIG_DMA_OPS as well, and then we pull in the x86
definition of get_arch_dma_ops(), which uses the dma_ops
symbol, which isn't defined.

Since we don't have real DMA ops nor any kind of IOMMU fix
this in the simplest possible way: pull in the asm-generic
file instead of inheriting the x86 one. It's not clear why
those drivers that do (e.g. VDPA) "select DMA_OPS", and if
they'd even work with this, but chances are nobody will be
wanting to do that anyway, so fixing the build failure is
good enough.

<content type='text'>
commit af9fb41ed315ce95f659f0b10b4d59a71975381d upstream.

If a device implementation crashes, virtio_uml will mark it
as dead by calling virtio_break_device() and scheduling the
work that will remove it.

This still seems like the right thing to do, but it's done
directly while reading the message, and if time-travel is
used, this is in the time-travel handler, outside of the
normal Linux machinery. Therefore, we cannot acquire locks
or do normal "linux-y" things because e.g. lockdep will be
confused about the context.

Move handling this situation out of the read function and
into the actual IRQ handler and response handling instead,
so that in the case of time-travel we don't call it in the
wrong context.

Chances are the system will still crash immediately, since
the device implementation crashing may also cause the time-
travel controller to go down, but at least all of that now
happens without strange warnings from lockdep.

commit c200e4bb44e80b343c09841e7caaaca0aac5e5fa upstream.

User mode linux is the last user of the PT_DTRACE flag.  Using the flag to indicate
single stepping is a little confusing and worse changing tsk-&gt;ptrace without locking
could potentionally cause problems.

So use a thread info flag with a better name instead of flag in tsk-&gt;ptrace.

Remove the definition PT_DTRACE as uml is the last user.

<content type='text'>
commit 9f13fb0cd11ed2327abff69f6501a2c124c88b5a upstream.

In the event that random_get_entropy() can't access a cycle counter or
similar, falling back to returning 0 is really not the best we can do.
Instead, at least calling random_get_entropy_fallback() would be
preferable, because that always needs to return _something_, even
falling back to jiffies eventually. It's not as though
random_get_entropy_fallback() is super high precision or guaranteed to
be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all the time is
better than returning zero all the time.

This is accomplished by just including the asm-generic code like on
other architectures, which means we can get rid of the empty stub
function here.
