commit 320cde19 upstream. Patch to add the Formosa Industrial Computing, Inc. Infrared Receiver [IR605A/Q] to hid-ids.h and hid-quirks.c. This IR receiver causes about a 10 second timeout when the usbhid driver attempts to initialze the device. Adding this device to the quirks list with HID_QUIRK_NO_INIT_REPORTS removes the delay.

commit 3735d524 upstream.

commit f64410ec upstream. This patch is based on an earlier patch by Eric Paris, he describes the problem below: "If an inode is accessed before policy load it will get placed on a list of inodes to be initialized after policy load. After policy load we call inode_doinit() which calls inode_doinit_with_dentry() on all inodes accessed before policy load. In the case of inodes in procfs that means we'll end up at the bottom where it does: /* Default to the fs superblock SID. */ isec->sid = sbsec->sid; if ((sbsec->flags & SE_SBPROC) && !S_ISLNK(inode->i_mode)) { if (opt_dentry) { isec->sclass = inode_mode_to_security_class(...) rc = selinux_proc_get_sid(opt_dentry, isec->sclass, &sid); if (rc) goto out_unlock; isec->sid = sid; } } Since opt_dentry is null, we'll never call selinux_proc_get_sid() and will leave the inode labeled with the label on the superblock. I believe a fix would be to mimic the behavior of xattrs. Look for an alias of the inode. If it can't be found, just leave the inode uninitialized (and pick it up later) if it can be found, we should be able to call selinux_proc_get_sid() ..." On a system exhibiting this problem, you will notice a lot of files in /proc with the generic "proc_t" type (at least the ones that were accessed early in the boot), for example: # ls -Z /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax | awk '{ print $4 " " $5 }' system_u:object_r:proc_t:s0 /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax However, with this patch in place we see the expected result: # ls -Z /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax | awk '{ print $4 " " $5 }' system_u:object_r:sysctl_kernel_t:s0 /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit d953e0e8 upstream. Remove the cdev from the system (with cdev_del) *before* deallocating it (in pps_device_destruct, called via kobject_put from device_destroy). Also prevent deallocating a device with open file handles. A better long-term fix is probably to remove the cdev from the pps_device entirely, and instead have all devices reference one global cdev. Then the deallocation ordering becomes simpler. But that's more complex and invasive change, so we leave that for later.

commit 03a7ffe4 upstream. Now that N_TTY uses tty->disc_data for its private data, 'subclass' ldiscs cannot use ->disc_data for their own private data. (This is a regression is v3.8-rc1) Use pps_lookup_dev to associate the tty with the pps source instead. This fixes a crashing regression in 3.8-rc1.

commit 513b032c upstream. The PPS serial line discipline wants to attach a PPS device to a tty without changing the tty code to add a struct pps_device * pointer. Since the number of PPS devices in a typical system is generally very low (n=1 is by far the most common), it's practical to search the entire list of allocated pps devices. (We capture the timestamp before the lookup, so the timing isn't affected.) It is a bit ugly that this function, which is part of the in-kernel PPS API, has to be in pps.c as opposed to kapi,c, but that's not something that affects users.

commit 4e9b45a1 upstream. On 64 bit systems the test for negative message sizes is bogus as the size, which may be positive when evaluated as a long, will get truncated to an int when passed to load_msg(). So a long might very well contain a positive value but when truncated to an int it would become negative. That in combination with a small negative value of msg_ctlmax (which will be promoted to an unsigned type for the comparison against msgsz, making it a big positive value and therefore make it pass the check) will lead to two problems: 1/ The kmalloc() call in alloc_msg() will allocate a too small buffer as the addition of alen is effectively a subtraction. 2/ The copy_from_user() call in load_msg() will first overflow the buffer with userland data and then, when the userland access generates an access violation, the fixup handler copy_user_handle_tail() will try to fill the remainder with zeros -- roughly 4GB. That almost instantly results in a system crash or reset. ,-[ Reproducer (needs to be run as root) ]-- | #include <sys/stat.h> | #include <sys/msg.h> | #include <unistd.h> | #include <fcntl.h> | | int main(void) { | long msg = 1; | int fd; | | fd = open("/proc/sys/kernel/msgmax", O_WRONLY); | write(fd, "-1", 2); | close(fd); | | msgsnd(0, &msg, 0xfffffff0, IPC_NOWAIT); | | return 0; | } '--- Fix the issue by preventing msgsz from getting truncated by consistently using size_t for the message length. This way the size checks in do_msgsnd() could still be passed with a negative value for msg_ctlmax but we would fail on the buffer allocation in that case and error out. Also change the type of m_ts from int to size_t to avoid similar nastiness in other code paths -- it is used in similar constructs, i.e. signed vs. unsigned checks. It should never become negative under normal circumstances, though. Setting msg_ctlmax to a negative value is an odd configuration and should be prevented. As that might break existing userland, it will be handled in a separate commit so it could easily be reverted and reworked without reintroducing the above described bug. Hardening mechanisms for user copy operations would have catched that bug early -- e.g. checking slab object sizes on user copy operations as the usercopy feature of the PaX patch does. Or, for that matter, detect the long vs. int sign change due to truncation, as the size overflow plugin of the very same patch does.

commit 3f3f8d2f upstream. Throughout compiler*.h, many version checks are made. These can be simplified by using the macro that gcc's documentation recommends. However, my primary reason for adding this is that I need bug-check macros that are enabled at certain gcc versions and it's cleaner to use this macro than the tradition method: #if __GNUC__ > 4 || (__GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ => 2) If you add patch level, it gets this ugly: #if __GNUC__ > 4 || (__GNUC__ == 4 && (__GNUC_MINOR__ > 2 || \ __GNUC_MINOR__ == 2 __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ >= 1)) As opposed to: #if GCC_VERSION >= 40201 While having separate headers for gcc 3 & 4 eliminates some of this verbosity, they can still be cleaned up by this.

commit b22ce278 upstream. If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU. This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine. Such self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from happening on all other CPUs. The two would deadlock. Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one port may exclude command processing from other ports. With the right timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to stop_machine. Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.

commit 326cf0f0 upstream. Most functions in idr fail to deal with the high bits when the idr tree grows to the maximum height. * idr_get_empty_slot() stops growing idr tree once the depth reaches MAX_IDR_LEVEL - 1, which is one depth shallower than necessary to cover the whole range. The function doesn't even notice that it didn't grow the tree enough and ends up allocating the wrong ID given sufficiently high @starting_id. For example, on 64 bit, if the starting id is 0x7fffff01, idr_get_empty_slot() will grow the tree 5 layer deep, which only covers the 30 bits and then proceed to allocate as if the bit 30 wasn't specified. It ends up allocating 0x3fffff01 without the bit 30 but still returns 0x7fffff01. * __idr_remove_all() will not remove anything if the tree is fully grown. * idr_find() can't find anything if the tree is fully grown. * idr_for_each() and idr_get_next() can't iterate anything if the tree is fully grown. Fix it by introducing idr_max() which returns the maximum possible ID given the depth of tree and replacing the id limit checks in all affected places. As the idr_layer pointer array pa[] needs to be 1 larger than the maximum depth, enlarge pa[] arrays by one. While this plugs the discovered issues, the whole code base is horrible and in desparate need of rewrite.

commit 8d238027 upstream. We display a list of supplementary group for each process in /proc/<pid>/status. However, we show only the first 32 groups, not all of them. Although this is rare, but sometimes processes do have more than 32 supplementary groups, and this kernel limitation breaks user-space apps that rely on the group list in /proc/<pid>/status. Number 32 comes from the internal NGROUPS_SMALL macro which defines the length for the internal kernel "small" groups buffer. There is no apparent reason to limit to this value. This patch removes the 32 groups printing limit. The Linux kernel limits the amount of supplementary groups by NGROUPS_MAX, which is currently set to 65536. And this is the maximum count of groups we may possibly print. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Serge E.

commit b22f5126 upstream. Some occurences in the netfilter tree use skb_header_pointer() in the following way ... struct dccp_hdr _dh, *dh; ... skb_header_pointer(skb, dataoff, sizeof(_dh), &dh); ... where dh itself is a pointer that is being passed as the copy buffer. Instead, we need to use &_dh as the forth argument so that we're copying the data into an actual buffer that sits on the stack. Currently, we probably could overwrite memory on the stack (e.g. with a possibly mal-formed DCCP packet), but unintentionally, as we only want the buffer to be placed into _dh variable.

commit 825600c0 upstream. On x86 uniprocessor systems topology_physical_package_id() returns -1 which causes rapl_cpu_prepare() to leave rapl_pmu variable uninitialized which leads to GPF in rapl_pmu_init(). See arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_rapl.c. It turns out that physical_package_id and core_id can actually be retreived for uniprocessor systems too. Enabling them also fixes rapl_pmu code.

commit 421e08c4 upstream. The new Lenovo Haswell series (-40's) contains a new Synaptics touchpad. However, these new Synaptics devices report bad axis ranges. Under Windows, it is not a problem because the Windows driver uses RMI4 over SMBus to talk to the device. Under Linux, we are using the PS/2 fallback interface and it occurs the reported ranges are wrong. Of course, it would be too easy to have only one range for the whole series, each touchpad seems to be calibrated in a different way. We can not use SMBus to get the actual range because I suspect the firmware will switch into the SMBus mode and stop talking through PS/2 (this is the case for hybrid HID over I2C / PS/2 Synaptics touchpads). So as a temporary solution (until RMI4 land into upstream), start a new list of quirks with the min/max manually set.

[fixed differently in 6062a8dc upstream.] In older kernels (before v3.10) ipc_rcu_hdr->refcount was non-atomic int. There was possuble double-free bug: do_msgsnd() calls ipc_rcu_putref() under msq->q_perm->lock and RCU, while freequeue() calls it while it holds only 'rw_mutex', so there is no sinchronization between them. Two function decrements '2' non-atomically, they both can get '0' as result. do_msgsnd() freequeue() msq = msg_lock_check(ns, msqid); ... ipc_rcu_getref(msq); msg_unlock(msq); schedule(); (caller locks spinlock) expunge_all(msq, -EIDRM); ss_wakeup(&msq->q_senders, 1); msg_rmid(ns, msq); msg_unlock(msq); ipc_lock_by_ptr(&msq->q_perm); ipc_rcu_putref(msq); ipc_rcu_putref(msq); < both may get get --(...)->refcount == 0 > This patch locks ipc_lock and RCU around ipc_rcu_putref in freequeue. ( RCU protects memory for spin_unlock() ) Similar bugs might be in other users of ipc_rcu_putref(). In the mainline this has been fixed in v3.10 indirectly in commmit 6062a8dc ("ipc,sem: fine grained locking for semtimedop") by Rik van Riel. That commit optimized locking and converted refcount into atomic. I'm not sure that anybody should care about this bug: it's very-very unlikely and no longer exists in actual mainline. I've found this just by looking into the code, probably this never happens in real life. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <k.khlebnikov@samsung.com>

Switch the order to avoid the problem. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1047892Reviewed-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Cc: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@fedoraproject.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 989c6b34 upstream. It is possible for __direct_map to be called on invalid root_hpa (-1), two examples: 1) try_async_pf -> can_do_async_pf -> vmx_interrupt_allowed -> nested_vmx_vmexit 2) vmx_handle_exit -> vmx_interrupt_allowed -> nested_vmx_vmexit Then to load_vmcs12_host_state and kvm_mmu_reset_context. Check for this possibility, let fault exception be regenerated.

commit c15bdfd5 upstream. The current assumption in the elantech driver that hw version 3 touchpads are never clickpads and hw version 4 touchpads are always clickpads is wrong. There are several bug reports for this, ie: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1030802 http://superuser.com/questions/619582/right-elantech-touchpad-button-not-working-in-linux I've spend a couple of hours wading through various bugzillas, launchpads and forum posts to create a list of fw-versions and capabilities for different laptop models to find a good method to differentiate between clickpads and versions with separate hardware buttons. Which shows that a device being a clickpad is reliable indicated by bit 12 being set in the fw_version. I've included the gathered list inside the driver, so that we've this info at hand if we need to revisit this later.

commit 75135da0 upstream. pci_get_device() decrements the reference count of "from" (last argument) so when we break off the loop successfully we have only one device reference - and we don't know which device we have. If we want a reference to each device, we must take them explicitly and let the pci_get_device() walk complete to avoid duplicate references. This is serious, as over-putting device references will cause the device to eventually disappear. Without this fix, the kernel crashes after a few insmod/rmmod cycles. Tested on an Intel S7000FC4UR system with a 7300 chipset.

commit f8ce239d upstream. builddeb generates a control file that says the linux-headers package can only be built for the build system primary architecture. This breaks cross-building configurations. We should use $debarch for this instead. Since $debarch is not yet set when generating the control file, set Architecture: any and use control file variables to fill in the description.

commit fdfaf64e upstream. Commit a998d434 claimed to introduce negative offset support to x86 jit, but it couldn't be working, since at the time of the execution of LD+ABS or LD+IND instructions via call into bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper() the %edx (3rd argument of this func) had junk value instead of access size in bytes (1 or 2 or 4).

commit 9a1ea2db upstream. With the current full handling, there is a race between osds and clients getting the first map marked full. If the osd wins, it will return -ENOSPC to any writes, but the client may already have writes in flight. This results in the client getting the error and propagating it up the stack. For rbd, the block layer turns this into EIO, which can cause corruption in filesystems above it. To avoid this race, osds are being changed to drop writes that came from clients with an osdmap older than the last osdmap marked full. In order for this to work, clients must resend all writes after they encounter a full -> not full transition in the osdmap. osds will wait for an updated map instead of processing a request from a client with a newer map, so resent writes will not be dropped by the osd unless there is another not full -> full transition. This approach requires both osds and clients to be fixed to avoid the race. Old clients talking to osds with this fix may hang instead of returning EIO and potentially corrupting an fs. New clients talking to old osds have the same behavior as before if they encounter this race.

commit 5a581b36 upstream. According to the C standard 3.4.3p3, overflow of a signed integer results in undefined behavior. This commit therefore changes the definitions of time_after(), time_after_eq(), time_after64(), and time_after_eq64() to avoid this undefined behavior. The trick is that the subtraction is done using unsigned arithmetic, which according to 6.2.5p9 cannot overflow because it is defined as modulo arithmetic. This has the added (though admittedly quite small) benefit of shortening four lines of code by four characters each. Note that the C standard considers the cast from unsigned to signed to be implementation-defined, see 6.3.1.3p3. However, on a two's-complement system, an implementation that defines anything other than a reinterpretation of the bits is free to come to me, and I will be happy to act as a witness for its being committed to an insane asylum. (Although I have nothing against saturating arithmetic or signals in some cases, these things really should not be the default when compiling an operating-system kernel.) Signed-off-by: Paul E.
