      hp-wmi: limit hotkey enable · 85695fdc
      Kyle Evans authored 
      commit 8a1513b4 upstream.

Do not write initialize magic on systems that do not have
feature query 0xb. Fixes Bug #82451.

Redefine FEATURE_QUERY to align with 0xb and FEATURE2 with 0xd
for code clearity.

Add a new test function, hp_wmi_bios_2008_later() & simplify
hp_wmi_bios_2009_later(), which fixes a bug in cases where
an improper value is returned. Probably also fixes Bug #69131.

Add missing __init tag.

      zram: fix possible use after free in zcomp_create() · 6e3105d5
      Luis Henriques authored 
      commit 3aaf14da upstream.

zcomp_create() verifies the success of zcomp_strm_{multi,single}_create()
through comp->stream, which can potentially be pointing to memory that
was freed if these functions returned an error.

While at it, replace a 'ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM)' by a more generic
'ERR_PTR(error)' as in the future zcomp_strm_{multi,siggle}_create()
could return other error codes.  Function documentation updated
accordingly.

OK I've decided to drop the acquire/release helpers as they don't
help us at all and simply pessimises the code by using full memory
barriers (on some architectures) where only a write or read barrier
is needed.

But you are right we do need an explicit write barrier here to
ensure that the hashing is visible.

It's not about being overly smart.  It's about actually understanding
what's going on with the code.  I've seen too many instances of
people simply sprinkling synchronisation primitives around without
any knowledge of what is happening underneath, which is just a recipe
for creating hard-to-debug races.

The reason this one is OK is because we do not use nlk->portid or
try to get nlk from the hash table before we return to user-space.

However, there is a real bug here that none of these acquire/release
helpers discovered.  The two bound tests here used to be a single
one.  Now that they are separate it is entirely possible for another
thread to come in the middle and bind the socket.  So we need to
repeat the portid check in order to maintain consistency.

Ditto.

The commit 1f770c0a ("netlink:
Fix autobind race condition that leads to zero port ID") created
some new races that can occur due to inconcsistencies between the
two port IDs.

Tejun is right that a barrier is unavoidable.  Therefore I am
reverting to the original patch that used a boolean to indicate
that a user netlink socket has been bound.

Barriers have been added where necessary to ensure that a valid
portid and the hashed socket is visible.

I have also changed netlink_insert to only return EBUSY if the
socket is bound to a portid different to the requested one.  This
combined with only reading nlk->bound once in netlink_bind fixes
a race where two threads that bind the socket at the same time
with different port IDs may both succeed.

      netlink: Fix autobind race condition that leads to zero port ID · 4e277624
      Herbert Xu authored 
      [ Upstream commit 1f770c0a ]

The commit c0bb07df ("netlink:
Reset portid after netlink_insert failure") introduced a race
condition where if two threads try to autobind the same socket
one of them may end up with a zero port ID.  This led to kernel
deadlocks that were observed by multiple people.

This patch reverts that commit and instead fixes it by introducing
a separte rhash_portid variable so that the real portid is only set
after the socket has been successfully hashed.

      mvneta: use inband status only when explicitly enabled · d6001764
      Stas Sergeev authored 
      [ Upstream commit f8af8e6e in net-next tree,
  will be pushed to Linus very soon. ]

The commit 898b2970 ("mvneta: implement SGMII-based in-band link state
signaling") implemented the link parameters auto-negotiation unconditionally.
Unfortunately it appears that some HW that implements SGMII protocol,
doesn't generate the inband status, so it is not possible to auto-negotiate
anything with such HW.

This patch enables the auto-negotiation only if explicitly requested with
the 'managed' DT property.

This patch fixes the following regression:

      of_mdio: add new DT property 'managed' to specify the PHY management type · ebfd3e10
      Stas Sergeev authored 
      [ Upstream commit 4cba5c21 in net-next tree,
  will be pushed to Linus very soon. ]

Currently the PHY management type is selected by the MAC driver arbitrary.
The decision is based on the presence of the "fixed-link" node and on a
will of the driver's authors.
This caused a regression recently, when mvneta driver suddenly started
to use the in-band status for auto-negotiation on fixed links.
It appears the auto-negotiation may not work when expected by the MAC driver.
Sebastien Rannou explains:
<< Yes, I confirm that my HW does not generate an in-band status. AFAIK, it's
a PHY that aggregates 4xSGMIIs to 1xQSGMII ; the MAC side of the PHY (with
inband status) is connected to the switch through QSGMII, and in this context
we are on the media side of the PHY. >>
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/10/206

This patch introduces the new string property 'managed' that allows
the user to set the management type explicitly.
The supported values are:
"auto" - default. Uses either MDIO or nothing, depending on the presence
of the fixed-link node
"in-band-status" - use in-band status

      net: phy: fixed_phy: handle link-down case · 282117ac
      Stas Sergeev authored 
      [ Upstream 868a4215 in net-next tree,
  will be pushed to Linus very soon. ]

fixed_phy_register() currently hardcodes the fixed PHY link to 1, and
expects to find a "speed" parameter to provide correct information
towards the fixed PHY consumer.

In a subsequent change, where we allow "managed" (e.g: (RS)GMII in-band
status auto-negotiation) fixed PHYs, none of these parameters can be
provided since they will be auto-negotiated, hence, we just provide a
zero-initialized fixed_phy_status to fixed_phy_register() which makes it
fail when we call fixed_phy_update_regs() since status.speed = 0 which
makes us hit the "default" label and error out.

Without this change, we would also see potentially inconsistent
speed/duplex parameters for fixed PHYs when the link is DOWN.

      Florian Fainelli authored 
      [ Upstream d2eac98f in net-next tree,
  will be pushed to Linus very soon. ]

The SF2 driver currently overrides speed settings for its port
configured using a fixed PHY, this is both unnecessary and incorrect,
because we keep feedback to the hardware parameters that we read from
the PHY device, which in the case of a fixed PHY cannot possibly change
speed.

This is a required change to allow the fixed PHY code to allow
registering a PHY with a link configured as DOWN by default and avoid
some sort of circular dependency where we require the link_update
callback to run to program the hardware, and we then utilize the fixed
PHY parameters to program the hardware with the same settings.

      fib_rules: fix fib rule dumps across multiple skbs · fce13464
      Wilson Kok authored 
      [ Upstream commit 41fc0143 ]

dump_rules returns skb length and not error.
But when family == AF_UNSPEC, the caller of dump_rules
assumes that it returns an error. Hence, when family == AF_UNSPEC,
we continue trying to dump on -EMSGSIZE errors resulting in
incorrect dump idx carried between skbs belonging to the same dump.
This results in fib rule dump always only dumping rules that fit
into the first skb.

This patch fixes dump_rules to return error so that we exit correctly
and idx is correctly maintained between skbs that are part of the
same dump.

      tcp: add proper TS val into RST packets · c3647e60
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      [ Upstream commit 675ee231 ]

RST packets sent on behalf of TCP connections with TS option (RFC 7323
TCP timestamps) have incorrect TS val (set to 0), but correct TS ecr.

A > B: Flags [S], seq 0, win 65535, options [mss 1000,nop,nop,TS val 100
ecr 0], length 0
B > A: Flags [S.], seq 2444755794, ack 1, win 28960, options [mss
1460,nop,nop,TS val 7264344 ecr 100], length 0
A > B: Flags [.], ack 1, win 65535, options [nop,nop,TS val 110 ecr
7264344], length 0

B > A: Flags [R.], seq 1, ack 1, win 28960, options [nop,nop,TS val 0
ecr 110], length 0

We need to call skb_mstamp_get() to get proper TS val,
derived from skb->skb_mstamp

Note that RFC 1323 was advocating to not send TS option in RST segment,
but RFC 7323 recommends the opposite :

  Once TSopt has been successfully negotiated, that is both <SYN> and
  <SYN,ACK> contain TSopt, the TSopt MUST be sent in every non-<RST>
  segment for the duration of the connection, and SHOULD be sent in an
  <RST> segment (see Section 5.2 for details)

Note this RFC recommends to send TS val = 0, but we believe it is
premature : We do not know if all TCP stacks are properly
handling the receive side :

   When an <RST> segment is
   received, it MUST NOT be subjected to the PAWS check by verifying an
   acceptable value in SEG.TSval, and information from the Timestamps
   option MUST NOT be used to update connection state information.
   SEG.TSecr MAY be used to provide stricter <RST> acceptance checks.

In 5 years, if/when all TCP stack are RFC 7323 ready, we might consider
to decide to send TS val = 0, if it buys something.

      openvswitch: Zero flows on allocation. · 6d80e350
      Jesse Gross authored 
      [ Upstream commit ae5f2fb1 ]

When support for megaflows was introduced, OVS needed to start
installing flows with a mask applied to them. Since masking is an
expensive operation, OVS also had an optimization that would only
take the parts of the flow keys that were covered by a non-zero
mask. The values stored in the remaining pieces should not matter
because they are masked out.

While this works fine for the purposes of matching (which must always
look at the mask), serialization to netlink can be problematic. Since
the flow and the mask are serialized separately, the uninitialized
portions of the flow can be encoded with whatever values happen to be
present.

In terms of functionality, this has little effect since these fields
will be masked out by definition. However, it leaks kernel memory to
userspace, which is a potential security vulnerability. It is also
possible that other code paths could look at the masked key and get
uninitialized data, although this does not currently appear to be an
issue in practice.

This removes the mask optimization for flows that are being installed.
This was always intended to be the case as the mask optimizations were
really targetting per-packet flow operations.

      sctp: fix race on protocol/netns initialization · 5cadd6ba
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored 
      [ Upstream commit 8e2d61e0 ]

Consider sctp module is unloaded and is being requested because an user
is creating a sctp socket.

During initialization, sctp will add the new protocol type and then
initialize pernet subsys:

        status = sctp_v4_protosw_init();
        if (status)
                goto err_protosw_init;

        status = sctp_v6_protosw_init();
        if (status)
                goto err_v6_protosw_init;

        status = register_pernet_subsys(&sctp_net_ops);

The problem is that after those calls to sctp_v{4,6}_protosw_init(), it
is possible for userspace to create SCTP sockets like if the module is
already fully loaded. If that happens, one of the possible effects is
that we will have readers for net->sctp.local_addr_list list earlier
than expected and sctp_net_init() does not take precautions while
dealing with that list, leading to a potential panic but not limited to
that, as sctp_sock_init() will copy a bunch of blank/partially
initialized values from net->sctp.

The race happens like this:

     CPU 0                           |  CPU 1

Simply inverting the initialization order between
register_pernet_subsys() and sctp_v4_protosw_init() is not possible
because register_pernet_subsys() will create a control sctp socket, so
the protocol must be already visible by then. Deferring the socket
creation to a work-queue is not good specially because we loose the
ability to handle its errors.

So, as suggested by Vlad, the fix is to split netns initialization in
two moments: defaults and control socket, so that the defaults are
already loaded by when we register the protocol, while control socket
initialization is kept at the same moment it is today.

      netlink, mmap: transform mmap skb into full skb on taps · 65d48c63
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      [ Upstream commit 1853c949 ]

Ken-ichirou reported that running netlink in mmap mode for receive in
combination with nlmon will throw a NULL pointer dereference in
__kfree_skb() on nlmon_xmit(), in my case I can also trigger an "unable
to handle kernel paging request". The problem is the skb_clone() in
__netlink_deliver_tap_skb() for skbs that are mmaped.

I.e. the cloned skb doesn't have a destructor, whereas the mmap netlink
skb has it pointed to netlink_skb_destructor(), set in the handler
netlink_ring_setup_skb(). There, skb->head is being set to NULL, so
that in such cases, __kfree_skb() doesn't perform a skb_release_data()
via skb_release_all(), where skb->head is possibly being freed through
kfree(head) into slab allocator, although netlink mmap skb->head points
to the mmap buffer. Similarly, the same has to be done also for large
netlink skbs where the data area is vmalloced. Therefore, as discussed,
make a copy for these rather rare cases for now. This fixes the issue
on my and Ken-ichirou's test-cases.

      ipv6: fix multipath route replace error recovery · c59231c8
      Roopa Prabhu authored 
      [ Upstream commit 6b9ea5a6 ]

Problem:
The ecmp route replace support for ipv6 in the kernel, deletes the
existing ecmp route too early, ie when it installs the first nexthop.
If there is an error in installing the subsequent nexthops, its too late
to recover the already deleted existing route leaving the fib
in an inconsistent state.

This patch reduces the possibility of this by doing the following:
a) Changes the existing multipath route add code to a two stage process:
  build rt6_infos + insert them
	ip6_route_add rt6_info creation code is moved into
	ip6_route_info_create.
b) This ensures that most errors are caught during building rt6_infos
  and we fail early
c) Separates multipath add and del code. Because add needs the special
  two stage mode in a) and delete essentially does not care.
d) In any event if the code fails during inserting a route again, a
  warning is printed (This should be unlikely)

Before the patch:
$ip -6 route show

      net: dsa: bcm_sf2: Fix ageing conditions and operation · 0f5262e8
      Florian Fainelli authored 
      [ Upstream commit 39797a27 ]

The comparison check between cur_hw_state and hw_state is currently
invalid because cur_hw_state is right shifted by G_MISTP_SHIFT, while
hw_state is not, so we end-up comparing bits 2:0 with bits 7:5, which is
going to cause an additional aging to occur. Fix this by not shifting
cur_hw_state while reading it, but instead, mask the value with the
appropriately shitfted bitmask.

The other problem with the fast-ageing process is that we did not set
the EN_AGE_DYNAMIC bit to request the ageing to occur for dynamically
learned MAC addresses. Finally, write back 0 to the FAST_AGE_CTRL
register to avoid leaving spurious bits sets from one operation to the
other.

      net/ipv6: Correct PIM6 mrt_lock handling · 5008d77e
      Richard Laing authored 
      [ Upstream commit 25b4a44c ]

In the IPv6 multicast routing code the mrt_lock was not being released
correctly in the MFC iterator, as a result adding or deleting a MIF would
cause a hang because the mrt_lock could not be acquired.

This fix is a copy of the code for the IPv4 case and ensures that the lock
is released correctly.
