commit 7d6e9105 upstream. An ancient gcc bug (first reported in 2003) has apparently resurfaced on MIPS, where kernelci.org reports an overly large stack frame in the whirlpool hash algorithm: crypto/wp512.c:987:1: warning: the frame size of 1112 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] With some testing in different configurations, I'm seeing large variations in stack frames size up to 1500 bytes for what should have around 300 bytes at most. I also checked the reference implementation, which is essentially the same code but also comes with some test and benchmarking infrastructure. It seems that recent compiler versions on at least arm, arm64 and powerpc have a partial fix for this problem, but enabling "-fsched-pressure", but even with that fix they suffer from the issue to a certain degree. Some testing on arm64 shows that the time needed to hash a given amount of data is roughly proportional to the stack frame size here, which makes sense given that the wp512 implementation is doing lots of loads for table lookups, and the problem with the overly large stack is a result of doing a lot more loads and stores for spilled registers (as seen from inspecting the object code). Disabling -fschedule-insns consistently fixes the problem for wp512, in my collection of cross-compilers, the results are consistently better or identical when comparing the stack sizes in this function, though some architectures (notable x86) have schedule-insns disabled by default. The four columns are: default: -O2 press: -O2 -fsched-pressure nopress: -O2 -fschedule-insns -fno-sched-pressure nosched: -O2 -no-schedule-insns (disables sched-pressure) default press nopress nosched alpha-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1136 848 1136 176 am33_2.0-linux-gcc-4.9.3 2100 2076 2100 2104 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.9.3 848 848 1048 352 cris-linux-gcc-4.9.3 272 272 272 272 frv-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1128 1000 1128 280 hppa64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1128 336 1128 184 hppa-linux-gcc-4.9.3 644 308 644 276 i386-linux-gcc-4.9.3 352 352 352 352 m32r-linux-gcc-4.9.3 720 656 720 268 microblaze-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1108 604 1108 256 mips64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1328 592 1328 208 mips-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1096 624 1096 240 powerpc64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1088 432 1088 160 powerpc-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1080 584 1080 224 s390-linux-gcc-4.9.3 456 456 624 360 sh3-linux-gcc-4.9.3 292 292 292 292 sparc64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 992 240 992 208 sparc-linux-gcc-4.9.3 680 592 680 312 x86_64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 224 240 272 224 xtensa-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1152 704 1152 304 aarch64-linux-gcc-7.0.0 224 224 1104 208 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-7.0.1 824 824 1048 352 mips-linux-gcc-7.0.0 1120 648 1120 272 x86_64-linux-gcc-7.0.1 240 240 304 240 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.4.7 840 392 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.5.4 784 728 784 320 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.6.4 736 728 736 304 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.7.4 944 784 944 352 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.8.5 464 464 760 352 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.9.3 848 848 1048 352 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-5.3.1 824 824 1064 336 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-6.1.1 808 808 1056 344 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-7.0.1 824 824 1048 352 Trying the same test for serpent-generic, the picture is a bit different, and while -fno-schedule-insns is generally better here than the default, -fsched-pressure wins overall, so I picked that instead. default press nopress nosched alpha-linux-gcc-4.9.3 1392 864 1392 960 am33_2.0-linux-gcc-4.9.3 536 524 536 528 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.9.3 552 552 776 536 cris-linux-gcc-4.9.3 528 528 528 528 frv-linux-gcc-4.9.3 536 400 536 504 hppa64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 524 208 524 480 hppa-linux-gcc-4.9.3 768 472 768 508 i386-linux-gcc-4.9.3 564 564 564 564 m32r-linux-gcc-4.9.3 712 576 712 532 microblaze-linux-gcc-4.9.3 724 392 724 512 mips64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 720 384 720 496 mips-linux-gcc-4.9.3 728 384 728 496 powerpc64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 704 304 704 480 powerpc-linux-gcc-4.9.3 704 296 704 480 s390-linux-gcc-4.9.3 560 560 592 536 sh3-linux-gcc-4.9.3 540 540 540 540 sparc64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 544 352 544 496 sparc-linux-gcc-4.9.3 544 344 544 496 x86_64-linux-gcc-4.9.3 528 536 576 528 xtensa-linux-gcc-4.9.3 752 544 752 544 aarch64-linux-gcc-7.0.0 432 432 656 480 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-7.0.1 616 616 808 536 mips-linux-gcc-7.0.0 720 464 720 488 x86_64-linux-gcc-7.0.1 536 528 600 536 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.4.7 592 440 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.5.4 776 448 776 544 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.6.4 776 448 776 544 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.7.4 768 448 768 544 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.8.5 488 488 776 544 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.9.3 552 552 776 536 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-5.3.1 552 552 776 536 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-6.1.1 560 560 776 536 arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-7.0.1 616 616 808 536 I did not do any runtime tests with serpent, so it is possible that stack frame size does not directly correlate with runtime performance here and it actually makes things worse, but it's more likely to help here, and the reduced stack frame size is probably enough reason to apply the patch, especially given that the crypto code is often used in deep call chains.

commit 98d74f9c upstream. PCI hotpluggable xhci controllers such as some Alpine Ridge solutions will remove the xhci controller from the PCI bus when the last USB device is disconnected. Add a flag to indicate that the host is being removed to avoid queueing configure_endpoint commands for the dropped endpoints. For PCI hotplugged controllers this will prevent 5 second command timeouts For static xhci controllers the configure_endpoint command is not needed in the removal case as everything will be returned, freed, and the controller is reset. For now the flag is only set for PCI connected host controllers. Signed-off-by:

The gmap_map_segment function uses PGDIR_SIZE in the check for the maximum address in the tasks address space. This incorrectly limits the amount of memory usable for a kvm guest to 4TB. The correct limit is (1UL << 53). As the TASK_SIZE has different values (4TB vs 8PB) dependent on the existance of the fourth page table level, create a new define 'TASK_MAX_SIZE' for (1UL << 53).

commit 708e75a3 upstream. If kvmppc_handle_exit_pr() calls kvmppc_emulate_instruction() to emulate one instruction (in the BOOK3S_INTERRUPT_H_EMUL_ASSIST case), it calls kvmppc_core_queue_program() afterwards if kvmppc_emulate_instruction() returned EMULATE_FAIL, so the guest gets an program interrupt for the illegal opcode. However, the kvmppc_emulate_instruction() also tried to inject a program exception for this already, so the program interrupt gets injected twice and the return address in srr0 gets destroyed. All other callers of kvmppc_emulate_instruction() are also injecting a program interrupt, and since the callers have the right knowledge about the srr1 flags that should be used, it is the function kvmppc_emulate_instruction() that should _not_ inject program interrupts, so remove the kvmppc_core_queue_program() here. This fixes the issue discovered by Laurent Vivier with kvm-unit-tests where the logs are filled with these messages when the test tries to execute an illegal instruction: Couldn't emulate instruction 0x00000000 (op 0 xop 0) kvmppc_handle_exit_pr: emulation at 700 failed (00000000) Signed-off-by:

commit c21a493a upstream. Currently xmon data-breakpoint feature is broken. Whenever there is a watchpoint match occurs, hw_breakpoint_handler will be called by do_break via notifier chains mechanism. If watchpoint is registered by xmon, hw_breakpoint_handler won't find any associated perf_event and returns immediately with NOTIFY_STOP. Similarly, do_break also returns without notifying to xmon. Solve this by returning NOTIFY_DONE when hw_breakpoint_handler does not find any perf_event associated with matched watchpoint, rather than NOTIFY_STOP, which tells the core code to continue calling the other breakpoint handlers including the xmon one.

commit 95e91b83 upstream. The issue is described here, with a nice testcase: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192931 The problem is that shmat() calls do_mmap_pgoff() with MAP_FIXED, and the address rounded down to 0. For the regular mmap case, the protection mentioned above is that the kernel gets to generate the address -- arch_get_unmapped_area() will always check for MAP_FIXED and return that address. So by the time we do security_mmap_addr(0) things get funky for shmat(). The testcase itself shows that while a regular user crashes, root will not have a problem attaching a nil-page. There are two possible fixes to this. The first, and which this patch does, is to simply allow root to crash as well -- this is also regular mmap behavior, ie when hacking up the testcase and adding mmap(... |MAP_FIXED). While this approach is the safer option, the second alternative is to ignore SHM_RND if the rounded address is 0, thus only having MAP_SHARED flags. This makes the behavior of shmat() identical to the mmap() case. The downside of this is obviously user visible, but does make sense in that it maintains semantics after the round-down wrt 0 address and mmap. Passes shm related ltp tests.

commit e1587a49 upstream. At the end of a window period, if the reclaimed pages is greater than scanned, an unsigned underflow can result in a huge pressure value and thus a critical event. Reclaimed pages is found to go higher than scanned because of the addition of reclaimed slab pages to reclaimed in shrink_node without a corresponding increment to scanned pages. Minchan Kim mentioned that this can also happen in the case of a THP page where the scanned is 1 and reclaimed could be 512.

commit 2b2f5ff0 upstream. This patch fixes a RTC wakealarm issue, namely, the event fires during hibernate and is not cleared from the list, causing hwclock to block. The current enqueuing does not trigger an alarm if any expired timers already exist on the timerqueue. This can occur when a RTC wake alarm is used to wake a machine out of hibernate and the resumed state has old expired timers that have not been removed from the timer queue. This fix skips over any expired timers and triggers an alarm if there are no pending timers on the timerqueue. Note that the skipped expired timer will get reaped later on, so there is no need to clean it up immediately. The issue can be reproduced by putting a machine into hibernate and waking it with the RTC wakealarm. Running the example RTC test program from tools/testing/selftests/timers/rtctest.c after the hibernate will block indefinitely. With the fix, it no longer blocks after the hibernate resume.

commit 25f71d1c upstream. The UEVENT user mode helper is enabled before the initcalls are executed and is available when the root filesystem has been mounted. The user mode helper is triggered by device init calls and the executable might use the futex syscall. futex_init() is marked __initcall which maps to device_initcall, but there is no guarantee that futex_init() is invoked _before_ the first device init call which triggers the UEVENT user mode helper. If the user mode helper uses the futex syscall before futex_init() then the syscall crashes with a NULL pointer dereference because the futex subsystem has not been initialized yet. Move futex_init() to core_initcall so futexes are initialized before the root filesystem is mounted and the usermode helper becomes available. [ tglx: Rewrote changelog ] Signed-off-by:

commit f9c85ee6 upstream. Reported as a Kaffeine bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=375811 The USB control messages require DMA to work. We cannot pass a stack-allocated buffer, as it is not warranted that the stack would be into a DMA enabled area. On Kernel 4.9, the default is to not accept DMA on stack anymore on x86 architecture. On other architectures, this has been a requirement since Kernel 2.2. So, after this patch, this driver should likely work fine on all archs.

commit 5a81e6a1 upstream. Flags (PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET, PIPE_BUF_FLAG_GIFT) could remain on the unused part of the pipe ring buffer. Previously splice_to_pipe() left the flags value alone, which could result in incorrect behavior. Uninitialized flags appears to have been there from the introduction of the splice syscall.

commit 57031eb7 upstream. Link layer protocols may unconditionally pull headers, as Ethernet does in eth_type_trans. Ensure that the entire link layer header always lies in the skb linear segment. tpacket_snd has such a check. Extend this to packet_snd. Variable length link layer headers complicate the computation somewhat. Here skb->len may be smaller than dev->hard_header_len. Round up the linear length to be at least as long as the smallest of the two. [js] no virtio helpers in 3.12 Reported-by:

commit 837585a5 upstream. When IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled, a virtio_net header must precede data. Data length is verified to be greater than or equal to expected header length tun->vnet_hdr_sz before copying. Macvtap functions read the value once, but unless READ_ONCE is used, the compiler may ignore this and read multiple times. Enforce a single read and locally cached value to avoid updates between test and use. Signed-off-by:

commit 06425c30 upstream. syszkaller fuzzer was able to trigger a divide by zero, when TCP window scaling is not enabled. SO_RCVBUF can be used not only to increase sk_rcvbuf, also to decrease it below current receive buffers utilization. If mss is negative or 0, just return a zero TCP window. Signed-off-by:

commit 5abf186a upstream. do_generic_file_read() can be told to perform a large request from userspace. If the system is under OOM and the reading task is the OOM victim then it has an access to memory reserves and finishing the full request can lead to the full memory depletion which is dangerous. Make sure we rather go with a short read and allow the killed task to terminate. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170201092706.9966-3-mhocko@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

commit deb88a2a upstream. Patch series "fix a kernel oops when reading sysfs valid_zones", v2. A sysfs memory file is created for each 2GiB memory block on x86-64 when the system has 64GiB or more memory. [1] When the start address of a memory block is not backed by struct page, i.e. a memory range is not aligned by 2GiB, reading its 'valid_zones' attribute file leads to a kernel oops. This issue was observed on multiple x86-64 systems with more than 64GiB of memory. This patch-set fixes this issue. Patch 1 first fixes an issue in test_pages_in_a_zone(), which does not test the start section. Patch 2 then fixes the kernel oops by extending test_pages_in_a_zone() to return valid [start, end). Note for stable kernels: The memory block size change was made by commit bdee237c ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory x86-64 systems"), which was accepted to 3.9. However, this patch-set depends on (and fixes) the change to test_pages_in_a_zone() made by commit 5f0f2887 ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: check for missing sections in test_pages_in_a_zone()"), which was accepted to 4.4. So, I recommend that we backport it up to 4.4. [1] 'Commit bdee237c ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory x86-64 systems")' This patch (of 2): test_pages_in_a_zone() does not check 'start_pfn' when it is aligned by section since 'sec_end_pfn' is set equal to 'pfn'. Since this function is called for testing the range of a sysfs memory file, 'start_pfn' is always aligned by section. Fix it by properly setting 'sec_end_pfn' to the next section pfn. Also make sure that this function returns 1 only when the range belongs to a zone. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170127222149.30893-2-toshi.kani@hpe.comSigned-off-by:
