      perf: Fix perf mmap bugs · 535fad87
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      commit 26cb63ad upstream.

Vince reported a problem found by his perf specific trinity
fuzzer.

Al noticed 2 problems with perf's mmap():

 - it has issues against fork() since we use vma->vm_mm for accounting.
 - it has an rb refcount leak on double mmap().

We fix the issues against fork() by using VM_DONTCOPY; I don't
think there's code out there that uses this; we didn't hear
about weird accounting problems/crashes. If we do need this to
work, the previously proposed VM_PINNED could make this work.

Aside from the rb reference leak spotted by Al, Vince's example
prog was indeed doing a double mmap() through the use of
perf_event_set_output().

This exposes another problem, since we now have 2 events with
one buffer, the accounting gets screwy because we account per
event. Fix this by making the buffer responsible for its own
accounting.

[Backporting for 3.4-stable.
VM_RESERVED flag was replaced with pair 'VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP' in
314e51b9 since 3.7.0-rc1, and 314e51b9 comes from a big patchset, we didn't
backport the patchset, so I restored 'VM_DNOTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP' as before:
-       vma->vm_flags |= VM_DONTCOPY | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP;
+       vma->vm_flags |= VM_DONTCOPY | VM_RESERVED;

      pch_uart: fix a deadlock when pch_uart as console · 5d2a2c71
      Liang Li authored 
      commit 384e301e upstream.

When we use pch_uart as system console like 'console=ttyPCH0,115200',
then 'send break' to it. We'll encounter the deadlock on a cpu/core,
with interrupts disabled on the core. When we happen to have all irqs
affinity to cpu0 then the deadlock on cpu0 actually deadlock whole
system.

In pch_uart_interrupt, we have spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->lock, flags)
then call pch_uart_err_ir when break is received. Then the call to
dev_err would actually call to pch_console_write then we'll run into
another spin_lock(&priv->lock), with interrupts disabled.

So in the call sequence lead by pch_uart_interrupt, we should be
carefully to call functions that will 'print message to console' only
in case the uart port is not being used as serial console.

      UBIFS: fix a horrid bug · 4e3010bf
      Artem Bityutskiy authored 
      commit 605c912b upstream.

Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.

This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses
it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage,
but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an
security holes.

This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which
'->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in
'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a
seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'.

I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and
seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but
could not crash it with these patches.

      UBIFS: prepare to fix a horrid bug · eafde0bc
      Artem Bityutskiy authored 
      commit 33f1a63a upstream.

Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.

First of all, this means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while
'ubifs_readdir()' uses it.  But this particular patch does not fix the problem.
This patch is only a preparation, and the fix will follow next.

In this patch we make 'ubifs_readdir()' stop using 'file->f_pos' directly,
because 'file->f_pos' can be changed by '->llseek()' at any point. This may
lead 'ubifs_readdir()' to returning inconsistent data: directory entry names
may correspond to incorrect file positions.

So here we introduce a local variable 'pos', read 'file->f_pose' once at very
the beginning, and then stick to 'pos'. The result of this is that when
'ubifs_dir_llseek()' changes 'file->f_pos' while we are in the middle of
'ubifs_readdir()', the latter "wins".

      perf: Disable monitoring on setuid processes for regular users · f57f135a
      Stephane Eranian authored 
      commit 2976b10f upstream.

There was a a bug in setup_new_exec(), whereby
the test to disabled perf monitoring was not
correct because the new credentials for the
process were not yet committed and therefore
the get_dumpable() test was never firing.

The patch fixes the problem by moving the
perf_event test until after the credentials
are committed.

      hw_breakpoint: Use cpu_possible_mask in {reserve,release}_bp_slot() · ed0b72ac
      Oleg Nesterov authored 
      commit c790b0ad upstream.

fetch_bp_busy_slots() and toggle_bp_slot() use
for_each_online_cpu(), this is obviously wrong wrt cpu_up() or
cpu_down(), we can over/under account the per-cpu numbers.

For example:

	# echo 0 >> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	# perf record -e mem:0x10 -p 1 &
	# echo 1 >> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	# perf record -e mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10 -C1 -a &
	# taskset -p 0x2 1

triggers the same WARN_ONCE("Can't find any breakpoint slot") in
arch_install_hw_breakpoint().

      Bluetooth: Fix crash in l2cap_build_cmd() with small MTU · 630493e2
      Anderson Lizardo authored 
      commit 300b962e upstream.

If a too small MTU value is set with ioctl(HCISETACLMTU) or by a bogus
controller, memory corruption happens due to a memcpy() call with
negative length.

Fix this crash on either incoming or outgoing connections with a MTU
smaller than L2CAP_HDR_SIZE + L2CAP_CMD_HDR_SIZE:

      Simon Baatz authored 
      commit 1bc39742 upstream.

Commit f8b63c18 made flush_kernel_dcache_page a no-op assuming that
the pages it needs to handle are kernel mapped only.  However, for
example when doing direct I/O, pages with user space mappings may
occur.

Thus, continue to do lazy flushing if there are no user space
mappings.  Otherwise, flush the kernel cache lines directly.
