      tcp: fix use after free in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue() · 0f55fa75
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      [ Upstream commit bb1fceca ]

When tcp_sendmsg() allocates a fresh and empty skb, it puts it at the
tail of the write queue using tcp_add_write_queue_tail()

Then it attempts to copy user data into this fresh skb.

If the copy fails, we undo the work and remove the fresh skb.

Unfortunately, this undo lacks the change done to tp->highest_sack and
we can leave a dangling pointer (to a freed skb)

Later, tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue() can dereference this pointer and
access freed memory. For regular kernels where memory is not unmapped,
this might cause SACK bugs because tcp_highest_sack_seq() is buggy,
returning garbage instead of tp->snd_nxt, but with various debug
features like CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, this can crash the kernel.

This bug was found by Marco Grassi thanks to syzkaller.

      tcp: cwnd does not increase in TCP YeAH · 98418550
      Artem Germanov authored 
      [ Upstream commit db7196a0 ]

Commit 76174004
(tcp: do not slow start when cwnd equals ssthresh )
introduced regression in TCP YeAH. Using 100ms delay 1% loss virtual
ethernet link kernel 4.2 shows bandwidth ~500KB/s for single TCP
connection and kernel 4.3 and above (including 4.8-rc4) shows bandwidth
~100KB/s.
   That is caused by stalled cwnd when cwnd equals ssthresh. This patch
fixes it by proper increasing cwnd in this case.

      ipv6: release dst in ping_v6_sendmsg · ea7dd213
      Dave Jones authored 
      [ Upstream commit 03c2778a ]

Neither the failure or success paths of ping_v6_sendmsg release
the dst it acquires.  This leads to a flood of warnings from
"net/core/dst.c:288 dst_release" on older kernels that
don't have 8bf4ada2 backported.

That patch optimistically hoped this had been fixed post 3.10, but
it seems at least one case wasn't, where I've seen this triggered
a lot from machines doing unprivileged icmp sockets.

      ipv4: panic in leaf_walk_rcu due to stale node pointer · 6b8076b8
      David Forster authored 
      [ Upstream commit 94d9f1c5 ]

Panic occurs when issuing "cat /proc/net/route" whilst
populating FIB with > 1M routes.

Use of cached node pointer in fib_route_get_idx is unsafe.

      reiserfs: fix "new_insert_key may be used uninitialized ..." · daef25aa
      Jeff Mahoney authored 
      commit 0a11b9aa upstream.

new_insert_key only makes any sense when it's associated with a
new_insert_ptr, which is initialized to NULL and changed to a
buffer_head when we also initialize new_insert_key.  We can key off of
that to avoid the uninitialized warning.

      Fix build warning in kernel/cpuset.c · 29bd0359
      Arnd Bergmann authored

This got introduced by 06ec7a1d ("cpuset: make sure new tasks
conform to the current config of the cpuset"). In the upstream
kernel, the function prototype was changed as of b53202e6
("cgroup: kill cgrp_ss_priv[CGROUP_CANFORK_COUNT] and friends").

That patch is not suitable for stable kernels, and fortunately
the warning seems harmless as the prototypes only differ in the
second argument that is unused. Adding that argument gets rid
of the warning:

      include/linux/kernel.h: change abs() macro so it uses consistent return type · df127725
      Michal Nazarewicz authored 
      commit 8f57e4d9 upstream.

Rewrite abs() so that its return type does not depend on the
architecture and no unexpected type conversion happen inside of it.  The
only conversion is from unsigned to signed type.  char is left as a
return type but treated as a signed type regradless of it's actual
signedness.

With the old version, int arguments were promoted to long and depending
on architecture a long argument might result in s64 or long return type
(which may or may not be the same).

This came after some back and forth with Nicolas.  The current macro has
different return type (for the same input type) depending on
architecture which might be midly iritating.

An alternative version would promote to int like so:

	#define abs(x)	__abs_choose_expr(x, long long,			\
			__abs_choose_expr(x, long,			\
			__builtin_choose_expr(				\
				sizeof(x) <= sizeof(int),		\
				({ int __x = (x); __x<0?-__x:__x; }),	\
				((void)0))))

I have no preference but imagine Linus might.  :] Nicolas argument against
is that promoting to int causes iconsistent behaviour:

	int main(void) {
		unsigned short a = 0, b = 1, c = a - b;
		unsigned short d = abs(a - b);
		unsigned short e = abs(c);
		printf("%u %u\n", d, e);  // prints: 1 65535
	}

Then again, no sane person expects consistent behaviour from C integer
arithmetic.  ;)

Note:

  __builtin_types_compatible_p(unsigned char, char) is always false, and
  __builtin_types_compatible_p(signed char, char) is also always false.
