commit efb2ea77 upstream. This patch fixes a iscsi-target specific TMR reference leak during session shutdown, that could occur when a TMR was quiesced before the hand-off back to iscsi-target code via transport_cmd_check_stop_to_fabric(). The reference leak happens because iscsit_free_cmd() was incorrectly skipping the final target_put_sess_cmd() for TMRs when transport_generic_free_cmd() returned zero because the se_cmd->cmd_kref did not reach zero, due to the missing se_cmd assignment in original code. The result was iscsi_cmd and it's associated se_cmd memory would be freed once se_sess->sess_cmd_map where released, but the associated se_tmr_req was leaked and remained part of se_device->dev_tmr_list. This bug would manfiest itself as kernel paging request OOPsen in core_tmr_lun_reset(), when a left-over se_tmr_req attempted to dereference it's se_cmd pointer that had already been released during normal session shutdown. To address this bug, go ahead and treat ISCSI_OP_SCSI_CMD and ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC the same when there is an extra se_cmd->cmd_kref to drop in iscsit_free_cmd(), and use op_scsi to signal __iscsit_free_cmd() when the former needs to clear any further iscsi related I/O state.

commit 55d728a4 upstream. On UEFI systems, the PCI subsystem is enumerated by the firmware, and if a graphical framebuffer is exposed via a PCI device, its base address and size are exposed to the OS via the Graphics Output Protocol (GOP). On arm64 PCI systems, the entire PCI hierarchy is reconfigured from scratch at boot. This may result in the GOP framebuffer address to become stale, if the BAR covering the framebuffer is modified. This will cause the framebuffer to become unresponsive, and may in some cases result in unpredictable behavior if the range is reassigned to another device. So add a non-x86 quirk to the EFI fb driver to find the BAR associated with the GOP base address, and claim the BAR resource so that the PCI core will not move it. Signed-off-by:

commit 540f4c0e upstream. The UEFI Specification permits Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) instances without direct framebuffer access. This is indicated in the Mode structure with a PixelFormat enumeration value of PIXEL_BLT_ONLY. Given that the kernel does not know how to drive a Blt() only framebuffer (which is only permitted before ExitBootServices() anyway), we should disregard such framebuffers when looking for a GOP instance that is suitable for use as the boot console. So modify the EFI GOP initialization to not use a PIXEL_BLT_ONLY instance, preventing attempts later in boot to use an invalid screen_info.lfb_base address. Signed-off-by:

commit 409c1b25 upstream. The patch 554bfece ("parisc: Fix access fault handling in pa_memcpy()") reimplements the pa_memcpy function. Unfortunatelly, it makes the kernel unbootable. The crash happens in the function ide_complete_cmd where memcpy is called with the same source and destination address. This patch fixes a few bugs in pa_memcpy: * When jumping to .Lcopy_loop_16 for the first time, don't skip the instruction "ldi 31,t0" (this bug made the kernel unbootable) * Use the COND macro when comparing length, so that the comparison is 64-bit (a theoretical issue, in case the length is greater than 0xffffffff) * Don't use the COND macro after the "extru" instruction (the PA-RISC specification says that the upper 32-bits of extru result are undefined, although they are set to zero in practice) * Fix exception addresses in .Lcopy16_fault and .Lcopy8_fault * Rename .Lcopy_loop_4 to .Lcopy_loop_8 (so that it is consistent with .Lcopy8_fault) Fixes: 554bfece ("parisc: Fix access fault handling in pa_memcpy()") Signed-off-by:

commit c06989da upstream. vdso_enabled can be set to arbitrary integer values via the kernel command line 'vdso32=' parameter or via 'sysctl abi.vsyscall32'. load_vdso32() only maps VDSO if vdso_enabled == 1, but ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 merily checks for vdso_enabled != 0. As a consequence the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR auxiliary vector for the VDSO_ENTRY is emitted with a NULL pointer which causes a segfault when the application tries to use the VDSO. Restrict the valid arguments on the command line and the sysctl to 0 and 1. Fixes: b0b49f26 ("x86, vdso: Remove compat vdso support") Signed-off-by:

commit 11e63f6d upstream. Before we rework the "pmem api" to stop abusing __copy_user_nocache() for memcpy_to_pmem() we need to fix cases where we may strand dirty data in the cpu cache. The problem occurs when copy_from_iter_pmem() is used for arbitrary data transfers from userspace. There is no guarantee that these transfers, performed by dax_iomap_actor(), will have aligned destinations or aligned transfer lengths. Backstop the usage __copy_user_nocache() with explicit cache management in these unaligned cases. Yes, copy_from_iter_pmem() is now too big for an inline, but addressing that is saved for a later patch that moves the entirety of the "pmem api" into the pmem driver directly.

commit 1fa839b4 upstream. This fixes Continuous Availability when errors during file reopen are encountered. cifs_user_readv and cifs_user_writev would wait for ever if results of cifs_reopen_file are not stored and for later inspection. In fact, results are checked and, in case of errors, a chain of function calls leading to reads and writes to be scheduled in a separate thread is skipped. These threads will wake up the corresponding waiters once reads and writes are done. However, given the return value is not stored, when rc is checked for errors a previous one (always zero) is inspected instead. This leads to pending reads/writes added to the list, making cifs_user_readv and cifs_user_writev wait for ever. Signed-off-by:

commit f94773b9 upstream. The NV4A (aka NV44A) is an oddity in the family. It only comes in AGP and PCI varieties, rather than a core PCIE chip with a bridge for AGP/PCI as necessary. As a result, it appears that the MMU is also non-functional. For AGP cards, the vast majority of the NV4A lineup, this worked out since we force AGP cards to use the nv04 mmu. However for PCI variants, this did not work. Switching to the NV04 MMU makes it work like a charm. Thanks to mwk for the suggestion. This should be a no-op for NV4A AGP boards, as they were using it already. Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70388Signed-off-by:

It violates MADV_DONTNEED interface and can result is userspace misbehaviour. Basically it's the same race as with numa balancing in change_huge_pmd(), but a bit simpler to mitigate: we don't need to preserve dirty/young flags here due to MADV_FREE functionality.

commit ab22d260 upstream. If there has BIDI data, its first iov[] will overwrite the last iov[] for se_cmd->t_data_sg. To fix this, we can just increase the iov pointer, but this may introuduce a new memory leakage bug: If the se_cmd->data_length and se_cmd->t_bidi_data_sg->length are all not aligned up to the DATA_BLOCK_SIZE, the actual length needed maybe larger than just sum of them. So, this could be avoided by rounding all the data lengthes up to DATA_BLOCK_SIZE. Reviewed-by:

commit 264d5096 upstream. The retry queue is intended to provide a temporary buffer in the case of transient errors when communicating with auditd, it is not meant as a long life queue, that functionality is provided by the hold queue. This patch fixes a problem identified by Seth where the retry queue could grow uncontrollably if an auditd instance did not connect to the kernel to drain the queues. This commit fixes this by doing the following: * Make sure we always call auditd_reset() if we decide the connection with audit is really dead. There were some cases in kauditd_hold_skb() where we did not reset the connection, this patch relocates the reset calls to kauditd_thread() so all the error conditions are caught and the connection reset. As a side effect, this means we could move auditd_reset() and get rid of the forward definition at the top of kernel/audit.c. * We never checked the status of the auditd connection when processing the main audit queue which meant that the retry queue could grow unchecked. This patch adds a call to auditd_reset() after the main queue has been processed if auditd is not connected, the auditd_reset() call will make sure the retry and hold queues are correctly managed/flushed so that the retry queue remains reasonable.

commit 77f88796 upstream. Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its job by waking it up. In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical, kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and many other things. Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation. This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes stalling workqueue execution. This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread should stay in the root cgroup. It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat, so it's unlikely that this would break anything. v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit field suggested by Oleg.

commit 888022c0 upstream. Add compat ioctl support to dma-buf. This lets one to use DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC ioctl from 32bit application on 64bit kernel. Data structures for both 32 and 64bit modes are same, so there is no need for additional translation layer. Signed-off-by:

commit 2b6867c2 upstream. Subtracting tp_sizeof_priv from tp_block_size and casting to int to check whether one is less then the other doesn't always work (both of them are unsigned ints). Compare them as is instead. Also cast tp_sizeof_priv to u64 before using BLK_PLUS_PRIV, as it can overflow inside BLK_PLUS_PRIV otherwise. Signed-off-by:

commit 33fa46d7 upstream. In case caam_jr_alloc() fails, ctx->dev carries the error code, thus accessing it with dev_err() is incorrect. Fixes: 8c419778 ("crypto: caam - add support for RSA algorithm") Signed-off-by:

commit 40c98cb5 upstream. RNG instantiation was previously fixed by commit 62743a41 ("crypto: caam - fix RNG init descriptor ret. code checking") while deinstantiation was not addressed. Since the descriptors used are similar, in the sense that they both end with a JUMP HALT command, checking for errors should be similar too, i.e. status code 7000_0000h should be considered successful. Fixes: 1005bccd ("crypto: caam - enable instantiation of all RNG4 state handles") Signed-off-by:

commit c25f8064 upstream. Commit dda45f70 ("MIPS: Switch to the irq_stack in interrupts") changed both the normal and vectored interrupt handlers. Unfortunately the vectored version, "except_vec_vi_handler", was incorrectly modified to unconditionally jal to plat_irq_dispatch, rather than doing a jalr to the vectored handler that has been set up. This is ok for many platforms which set the vectored handler to plat_irq_dispatch anyway, but will cause problems with platforms that use other handlers.

commit 3cc3434f upstream. Since do_IRQ is now invoked on a separate IRQ stack, we select HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK so that softirq's may be invoked directly from irq_exit(), rather than requiring do_softirq_own_stack. Signed-off-by:
