openrisc: fix arbitrary kernel memory access via or1k_atomic syscallgrafted
sys_or1k_atomic() (syscall 244 in the "or1k" ABI) takes two user pointers, v1 and v2, and swaps the words they point to in hand-written assembly. l.lwz r29,0(r4) l.lwz r27,0(r5) l.sw 0(r4),r27 l.sw 0(r5),r29 The pointers are not checked with access_ok(). The four memory accesses also have no exception table entries. A caller passes a kernel address as either pointer, and the syscall reads from and writes to it directly. This gives an unprivileged process a kernel read/write primitive. It overwrites kernel data such as the sys_call_table, gaining code execution in kernel context. Check both pointers before entering the critical section. Add fixups for the four memory accesses so faults on valid but unmapped user addresses return -EFAULT.

+# Head objects
+#
+# The objects listed here are placed at the head of vmlinux. A typical use-case
+# is an object that contains the entry point. This is kept for compatibility
+# with head-y, which Kbuild used to support.
+#
+# A counter approach is to control the section placement by the linker script.
+# The code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section, which is placed
+# before the normal ".text" section.
+#
+# If you can achieve the correct code ordering by linker script, please delete
+# the entry from this file.
