The verifier allows ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID helper arguments to be NULL, so helper implementations need to check this before dereferencing them. This was already fixed for the socket storage helpers but not for task and inode. The issue can be reproduced by attaching an LSM program to inode_rename hook (called when moving files) which tries to get the inode of the new file without checking for its nullness and then trying to move an existing file to a new path: mv existing_file new_file_does_not_exist The report including the sample program and the steps for reproducing the bug: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/CANaYP3HWkH91SN=wTNO9FL_2ztHfqcXKX38SSE-JJ2voh+vssw@mail.gmail.com Fixes: 4cf1bc1f ("bpf: Implement task local storage") Fixes: 8ea63684 ("bpf: Implement bpf_local_storage for inodes") Reported-by: Gilad Reti <gilad.reti@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: KP Singh <kpsingh@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Acked-by: Yonghong Song <yhs@fb.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210112075525.256820-3-kpsingh@kernel.org

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: core: Thermal control fixes This series includes two fixes for thermal control in mlxsw. Patch #1 validates that the alarm temperature threshold read from a transceiver is above the warning temperature threshold. If not, the current thresholds are maintained. It was observed that some transceiver might be unreliable and sometimes report a too low alarm temperature threshold which would result in thermal shutdown of the system. Patch #2 increases the temperature threshold above which thermal shutdown is triggered for the ASIC thermal zone. It is currently too low and might result in thermal shutdown under perfectly fine operational conditions. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210108145210.1229820-1-idosch@idosch.orgSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

Increase critical threshold for ASIC thermal zone from 110C to 140C according to the system hardware requirements. All the supported ASICs (Spectrum-1, Spectrum-2, Spectrum-3) could be still operational with ASIC temperature below 140C. With the old critical threshold value system can perform unjustified shutdown. All the systems equipped with the above ASICs implement thermal protection mechanism at firmware level and firmware could decide to perform system thermal shutdown in case the temperature is below 140C. So with the new threshold system will not meltdown, while thermal operating range will be aligned with hardware abilities.

Validate thresholds to avoid a single failure due to some transceiver unreliability. Ignore the last readouts in case warning temperature is above alarm temperature, since it can cause unexpected thermal shutdown. Stay with the previous values and refresh threshold within the next iteration. This is a rare scenario, but it was observed at a customer site.

There are cases where GSO segment's length exceeds the egress MTU: - Forwarding of a TCP GRO skb, when DF flag is not set. - Forwarding of an skb that arrived on a virtualisation interface (virtio-net/vhost/tap) with TSO/GSO size set by other network stack. - Local GSO skb transmitted on an NETIF_F_TSO tunnel stacked over an interface with a smaller MTU. - Arriving GRO skb (or GSO skb in a virtualised environment) that is bridged to a NETIF_F_TSO tunnel stacked over an interface with an insufficient MTU. If so: - Consume the SKB and its segments. - Issue an ICMP packet with 'Packet Too Big' message containing the MTU, allowing the source host to reduce its Path MTU appropriately.

For all PCI functions on the netxen_nic adapter, interrupt mode (INTx or MSI) configuration is dependent on what has been configured by the PCI function zero in the shared interrupt register, as these adapters do not support mixed mode interrupts among the functions of a given adapter. Logic for setting MSI/MSI-x interrupt mode in the shared interrupt register based on PCI function id zero check is not appropriate for all family of netxen adapters, as for some of the netxen family adapters PCI function zero is not really meant to be probed/loaded in the host but rather just act as a management function on the device, which caused all the other PCI functions on the adapter to always use legacy interrupt (INTx) mode instead of choosing MSI/MSI-x interrupt mode. This patch replaces that check with port number so that for all type of adapters driver attempts for MSI/MSI-x interrupt modes.

Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== net: fix issues around register_netdevice() failures This series attempts to clean up the life cycle of struct net_device. Dave has added dev->needs_free_netdev in the past to fix double frees, we can lean on that mechanism a little more to fix remaining issues with register_netdevice(). This is the next chapter of the saga which already includes: commit 0e0eee24 ("net: correct error path in rtnl_newlink()") commit e51fb152 ("rtnetlink: fix a memory leak when ->newlink fails") commit cf124db5 ("net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.") commit 93ee31f1 ("[NET]: Fix free_netdev on register_netdev failure.") commit 814152a8 ("net: fix memleak in register_netdevice()") commit 10cc514f ("net: Fix null de-reference of device refcount") The immediate problem which gets fixed here is that calling free_netdev() right after unregister_netdevice() is illegal because we need to release rtnl_lock first, to let the unregistration finish. Note that unregister_netdevice() is just a wrapper of unregister_netdevice_queue(), it only does half of the job. Where this limitation becomes most problematic is in failure modes of register_netdevice(). There is a notifier call right at the end of it, which lets other subsystems veto the entire thing. At which point we should really go through a full unregister_netdevice(), but we can't because callers may go straight to free_netdev() after the failure, and that's no bueno (see the previous paragraph). This set makes free_netdev() more lenient, when device is still being unregistered free_netdev() will simply set dev->needs_free_netdev and let the unregister process do the freeing. With the free_netdev() problem out of the way failures in register_netdevice() can make use of net_todo, again. Users are still expected to call free_netdev() right after failure but that will only set dev->needs_free_netdev. To prevent the pathological case of: dev->needs_free_netdev = true; if (register_netdevice(dev)) { rtnl_unlock(); free_netdev(dev); } make register_netdevice()'s failure clear dev->needs_free_netdev. Problems described above are only present with register_netdevice() / unregister_netdevice(). We have two parallel APIs for registration of devices: - those called outside rtnl_lock (register_netdev(), and unregister_netdev()); - and those to be used under rtnl_lock - register_netdevice() and unregister_netdevice(). The former is trivial and has no problems. The alternative approach to fix the latter would be to also separate the freeing functions - i.e. add free_netdevice(). This has been implemented (incl. converting all relevant calls in the tree) but it feels a little unnecessary to put the burden of choosing the right free_netdev{,ice}() call on the programmer when we can "just do the right thing" by default. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210106184007.1821480-1-kuba@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

If register_netdevice() fails at the very last stage - the notifier call - some subsystems may have already seen it and grabbed a reference. struct net_device can't be freed right away without calling netdev_wait_all_refs(). Now that we have a clean interface in form of dev->needs_free_netdev and lenient free_netdev() we can undo what commit 93ee31f1 ("[NET]: Fix free_netdev on register_netdev failure.") has done and complete the unregistration path by bringing the net_set_todo() call back. After registration fails user is still expected to explicitly free the net_device, so make sure ->needs_free_netdev is cleared, otherwise rolling back the registration will cause the old double free for callers who release rtnl_lock before the free. This also solves the problem of priv_destructor not being called on notifier error. net_set_todo() will be moved back into unregister_netdevice_queue() in a follow up.

There are two flavors of handling netdev registration: - ones called without holding rtnl_lock: register_netdev() and unregister_netdev(); and - those called with rtnl_lock held: register_netdevice() and unregister_netdevice(). While the semantics of the former are pretty clear, the same can't be said about the latter. The netdev_todo mechanism is utilized to perform some of the device unregistering tasks and it hooks into rtnl_unlock() so the locked variants can't actually finish the work. In general free_netdev() does not mix well with locked calls. Most drivers operating under rtnl_lock set dev->needs_free_netdev to true and expect core to make the free_netdev() call some time later. The part where this becomes most problematic is error paths. There is no way to unwind the state cleanly after a call to register_netdevice(), since unreg can't be performed fully without dropping locks. Make free_netdev() more lenient, and defer the freeing if device is being unregistered. This allows error paths to simply call free_netdev() both after register_netdevice() failed, and after a call to unregister_netdevice() but before dropping rtnl_lock. Simplify the error paths which are currently doing gymnastics around free_netdev() handling. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

When setting up a channel bridge, ppp_bridge_channels sets the pch->bridge field before taking the associated reference on the bridge file instance. This opens up a refcount underflow bug if ppp_bridge_channels called via. iotcl runs concurrently with ppp_unbridge_channels executing via. file release. The bug is triggered by ppp_bridge_channels taking the error path through the 'err_unset' label. In this scenario, pch->bridge is set, but the reference on the bridged channel will not be taken because the function errors out. If ppp_unbridge_channels observes pch->bridge before it is unset by the error path, it will erroneously drop the reference on the bridged channel and cause a refcount underflow. To avoid this, ensure that ppp_bridge_channels holds a reference on each channel in advance of setting the bridge pointers.

skbs in fraglist could be shared by a BPF filter loaded at TC. If TC writes, it will call skb_ensure_writable -> pskb_expand_head to create a private linear section for the head_skb. And then call skb_clone_fraglist -> skb_get on each skb in the fraglist. skb_segment_list overwrites part of the skb linear section of each fragment itself. Even after skb_clone, the frag_skbs share their linear section with their clone in PF_PACKET. Both sk_receive_queue of PF_PACKET and PF_INET (or PF_INET6) can have a link for the same frag_skbs chain. If a new skb (not frags) is queued to one of the sk_receive_queue, multiple ptypes can see and release this. It causes use-after-free.

At the moment it is quite hard to identify the network interface provided by IPA in userspace components: The network interface is created as virtual device, without any link to the IPA device. The interface name ("rmnet_ipa%d") is the only indication that the network interface belongs to IPA, but this is not very reliable. Add SET_NETDEV_DEV() to associate the network interface with the IPA parent device. This allows userspace services like ModemManager to properly identify that this network interface is provided by IPA and belongs to the modem.

The kernel test robot reported a -5.8% performance regression on the "poll2" test of will-it-scale, and bisected it to commit d55564cf ("x86: Make __put_user() generate an out-of-line call"). I didn't expect an out-of-line __put_user() to matter, because no normal core code should use that non-checking legacy version of user access any more. But I had overlooked the very odd poll() usage, which does a __put_user() to update the 'revents' values of the poll array. Now, Al Viro correctly points out that instead of updating just the 'revents' field, it would be much simpler to just copy the _whole_ pollfd entry, and then we could just use "copy_to_user()" on the whole array of entries, the same way we use "copy_from_user()" a few lines earlier to get the original values. But that is not what we've traditionally done, and I worry that threaded applications might be concurrently modifying the other fields of the pollfd array. So while Al's suggestion is simpler - and perhaps worth trying in the future - this instead keeps the "just update revents" model. To fix the performance regression, use the modern "unsafe_put_user()" instead of __put_user(), with the proper "user_write_access_begin()" guarding in place. This improves code generation enormously.

This reverts commit 757055ae. The commit caused that ttynull was used as the default console on several systems[1][2][3]. As a result, the console was blank even when a better alternative existed. It happened when there was no console configured on the command line and ttynull_init() was the first initcall calling register_console(). Or it happened when /dev/ did not exist when console_on_rootfs() was called. It was not able to open /dev/console even though a console driver was registered. It tried to add ttynull console but it obviously did not help. But ttynull became the preferred console and was used by /dev/console when it was available later. The commit tried to fix a historical problem that have been there for ages. The primary motivation was the commit 3cffa06a ("printk/console: Allow to disable console output by using console="" or console=null"). It provided a clean solution for a workaround that was widely used and worked only by chance. This revert causes that the console="" or console=null command line options will again work only by chance. These options will cause that a particular console will be preferred and the default (tty) ones will not get enabled. There will be no console registered at all. As a result there won't be stdin, stdout, and stderr for the init process. But it worked exactly this way even before. The proper solution has to fulfill many conditions: + Register ttynull only when explicitly required or as the ultimate fallback. + ttynull should get associated with /dev/console but it must not become preferred console when used as a fallback. Especially, it must still be possible to replace it by a better console later. Such a change requires clean up of the register_console() code. Otherwise, it would be even harder to follow. Especially, the use of has_preferred_console and CON_CONSDEV flag is tricky. The clean up is risky. The ordering of consoles is not well defined. And any changes tend to break existing user settings. Do the revert at the least risky solution for now.

ip_finish_output_gso() may call .ndo_features_check() even before the skb has a L2 header. This conflicts with qeth_get_ip_version()'s attempt to inspect the L2 header via vlan_eth_hdr(). Switch to vlan_get_protocol(), as already used further down in the common qeth_features_check() path.

Due to insufficient locking, qeth_core_set_online() and qeth_dev_layer2_store() can run in parallel, both attempting to load & setup the discipline (and stepping on each other toes along the way). A similar race can also occur between qeth_core_remove_device() and qeth_dev_layer2_store(). Access to .discipline is meant to be protected by the discipline_mutex, so add/expand the locking in qeth_core_remove_device() and qeth_core_set_online(). Adjust the locking in qeth_l*_remove_device() accordingly, as it's now handled by the callers in a consistent manner. Based on an initial patch by Ursula Braun.

When qeth_dev_layer2_store() - holding the discipline_mutex - waits inside qeth_l*_remove_device() for a qeth_do_reset() thread to complete, we can hit a deadlock if qeth_do_reset() concurrently calls qeth_set_online() and thus tries to aquire the discipline_mutex. Move the discipline_mutex locking outside of qeth_set_online() and qeth_set_offline(), and turn the discipline into a parameter so that callers understand the dependency. To fix the deadlock, we can now relax the locking: As already established, qeth_l*_remove_device() waits for qeth_do_reset() to complete. So qeth_do_reset() itself is under no risk of having card->discipline ripped out while it's running, and thus doesn't need to take the discipline_mutex.

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== nexthop: Various fixes This series contains various fixes for the nexthop code. The bugs were uncovered during the development of resilient nexthop groups. Patches #1-#2 fix the error path of nexthop_create_group(). I was not able to trigger these bugs with current code, but it is possible with the upcoming resilient nexthop groups code which adds a user controllable memory allocation further in the function. Patch #3 fixes wrong validation of netlink attributes.

The function nh_check_attr_group() is called to validate nexthop groups. The intention of that code seems to have been to bounce all attributes above NHA_GROUP_TYPE except for NHA_FDB. However instead it bounces all these attributes except when NHA_FDB attribute is present--then it accepts them. NHA_FDB validation that takes place before, in rtm_to_nh_config(), already bounces NHA_OIF, NHA_BLACKHOLE, NHA_ENCAP and NHA_ENCAP_TYPE. Yet further back, NHA_GROUPS and NHA_MASTER are bounced unconditionally. But that still leaves NHA_GATEWAY as an attribute that would be accepted in FDB nexthop groups (with no meaning), so long as it keeps the address family as unspecified: # ip nexthop add id 1 fdb via 127.0.0.1 # ip nexthop add id 10 fdb via default group 1 The nexthop code is still relatively new and likely not used very broadly, and the FDB bits are newer still. Even though there is a reproducer out there, it relies on an improbable gateway arguments "via default", "via all" or "via any". Given all this, I believe it is OK to reformulate the condition to do the right thing and bounce NHA_GATEWAY.
