Subject[PATCH v2 26/30] fork: Provide usercopy whitelisting for task_struct
Date
While the blocked and saved_sigmask fields of task_struct are copied to
userspace (via sigmask_to_save() and setup_rt_frame()), it is always
copied with a static length (i.e. sizeof(sigset_t)).

The only portion of task_struct that is potentially dynamically sized and
may be copied to userspace is in the architecture-specific thread_struct
at the end of task_struct.

cache object allocation:
kernel/fork.c:
alloc_task_struct_node(...):
return kmem_cache_alloc_node(task_struct_cachep, ...);

dup_task_struct(...):
...
tsk = alloc_task_struct_node(node);

copy_process(...):
...
dup_task_struct(...)

_do_fork(...):
...
copy_process(...)

example usage trace:

arch/x86/kernel/fpu/signal.c:
__fpu__restore_sig(...):
...
struct task_struct *tsk = current;
struct fpu *fpu = &tsk->thread.fpu;
...
__copy_from_user(&fpu->state.xsave, ..., state_size);

fpu__restore_sig(...):
...
return __fpu__restore_sig(...);

arch/x86/kernel/signal.c:
restore_sigcontext(...):
...
fpu__restore_sig(...)

This introduces arch_thread_struct_whitelist() to let an architecture
declare specifically where the whitelist should be within thread_struct.
If undefined, the entire thread_struct field is left whitelisted.
