commit add284a3 upstream. In order to act as a full command barrier by itself, we need to tell the pipecontrol to actually stall the command streamer while the flush runs. We require the full command barrier before operations like MI_SET_CONTEXT, which currently rely on a prior invalidate flush.

commit 4943ba16 upstream. This adds the module loading prefix "crypto-" to the template lookup as well. For example, attempting to load 'vfat(blowfish)' via AF_ALG now correctly includes the "crypto-" prefix at every level, correctly rejecting "vfat": net-pf-38 algif-hash crypto-vfat(blowfish) crypto-vfat(blowfish)-all crypto-vfat Reported-by:

commit 3e14dcf7 upstream. Commit 5d26a105 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm. Even though commit 5d26a105 added those aliases for a vast amount of modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again. This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work with kernels v3.18 and below. Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former won't work for crypto modules any more. Fixes: 5d26a105 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by:

commit a5fd9733 upstream. commit 4dbd2771 "tick: export nohz tick idle symbols for module use" was merged via the thermal tree without an explicit ack from the relevant maintainers. The exports are abused by the intel powerclamp driver which implements a fake idle state from a sched FIFO task. This causes all kinds of wreckage in the NOHZ core code which rightfully assumes that tick_nohz_idle_enter/exit() are only called from the idle task itself. Recent changes in the NOHZ core lead to a failure of the powerclamp driver and now people try to hack completely broken and backwards workarounds into the NOHZ core code. This is completely unacceptable and just papers over the real problem. There are way more subtle issues lurking around the corner. The real solution is to fix the powerclamp driver by rewriting it with a sane concept, but that's beyond the scope of this. So the only solution for now is to remove the calls into the core NOHZ code from the powerclamp trainwreck along with the exports.

commit 136f49b9 upstream. For buffer write, page lock will be got in write_begin and released in write_end, in ocfs2_write_end_nolock(), before it unlock the page in ocfs2_free_write_ctxt(), it calls ocfs2_run_deallocs(), this will ask for the read lock of journal->j_trans_barrier. Holding page lock and ask for journal->j_trans_barrier breaks the locking order. This will cause a deadlock with journal commit threads, ocfs2cmt will get write lock of journal->j_trans_barrier first, then it wakes up kjournald2 to do the commit work, at last it waits until done. To commit journal, kjournald2 needs flushing data first, it needs get the cache page lock. Since some ocfs2 cluster locks are holding by write process, this deadlock may hung the whole cluster. unlock pages before ocfs2_run_deallocs() can fix the locking order, also put unlock before ocfs2_commit_trans() to make page lock is unlocked before j_trans_barrier to preserve unlocking order.

commit c297abfd upstream. While reviewing the code of umount_tree I realized that when we append to a preexisting unmounted list we do not change pprev of the former first item in the list. Which means later in namespace_unlock hlist_del_init(&mnt->mnt_hash) on the former first item of the list will stomp unmounted.first leaving it set to some random mount point which we are likely to free soon. This isn't likely to hit, but if it does I don't know how anyone could track it down. [ This happened because we don't have all the same operations for hlist's as we do for normal doubly-linked lists. In particular, list_splice() is easy on our standard doubly-linked lists, while hlist_splice() doesn't exist and needs both start/end entries of the hlist. And commit 38129a13 incorrectly open-coded that missing hlist_splice(). We should think about making these kinds of "mindless" conversions easier to get right by adding the missing hlist helpers - Linus ] Fixes: 38129a13 switch mnt_hash to hlist Signed-off-by:

commit d70a1b98 upstream. The Arcam rPAC seems to have the same problem - whenever anything (alsamixer, udevd, 3.9+ kernel from 60af3d03, ..) attempts to access mixer / control interface of the card, the firmware "locks up" the entire device, resulting in SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS failed (-5): Input/output error from alsa-lib. Other operating systems can somehow read the mixer (there seems to be playback volume/mute), but any manipulation is ignored by the device (which has hardware volume controls). Signed-off-by:

commit 3fb2f423 upstream. It turns out that there's a lurking ABI issue. GCC, when compiling this in a 32-bit program: struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = idx, .base_addr = base, .limit = 0xfffff, .seg_32bit = 1, .contents = 0, /* Data, grow-up */ .read_exec_only = 0, .limit_in_pages = 1, .seg_not_present = 0, .useable = 0, }; will leave .lm uninitialized. This means that anything in the kernel that reads user_desc.lm for 32-bit tasks is unreliable. Revert the .lm check in set_thread_area(). The value never did anything in the first place.

commit 6bf6ca75 upstream. This patch changes iscsit_do_tx_data() to fail on short writes when kernel_sendmsg() returns a value different than requested transfer length, returning -EPIPE and thus causing a connection reset to occur. This avoids a potential bug in the original code where a short write would result in kernel_sendmsg() being called again with the original iovec base + length. In practice this has not been an issue because iscsit_do_tx_data() is only used for transferring 48 byte headers + 4 byte digests, along with seldom used control payloads from NOPIN + TEXT_RSP + REJECT with less than 32k of data. So following Al's audit of iovec consumers, go ahead and fail the connection on short writes for now, and remove the bogus logic ahead of his proper upstream fix. Reported-by:

commit 8117ac6a upstream. Currently, when going idle, we set the flag indicating that we are in nap mode (paca->kvm_hstate.hwthread_state) and then execute the nap (or sleep or rvwinkle) instruction, all with the MMU on. This is bad for two reasons: (a) the architecture specifies that those instructions must be executed with the MMU off, and in fact with only the SF, HV, ME and possibly RI bits set, and (b) this introduces a race, because as soon as we set the flag, another thread can switch the MMU to a guest context. If the race is lost, this thread will typically start looping on relocation-on ISIs at 0xc...4400. This fixes it by setting the MSR as required by the architecture before setting the flag or executing the nap/sleep/rvwinkle instruction.

commit 0e58af4e upstream. Users have no business installing custom code segments into the GDT, and segments that are not present but are otherwise valid are a historical source of interesting attacks. For completeness, block attempts to set the L bit. (Prior to this patch, the L bit would have been silently dropped.) This is an ABI break. I've checked glibc, musl, and Wine, and none of them look like they'll have any trouble. Note to stable maintainers: this is a hardening patch that fixes no known bugs. Given the possibility of ABI issues, this probably shouldn't be backported quickly. Signed-off-by:

commit c291ee62 upstream. Since the rework of the sparse interrupt code to actually free the unused interrupt descriptors there exists a race between the /proc interfaces to the irq subsystem and the code which frees the interrupt descriptor. CPU0 CPU1 show_interrupts() desc = irq_to_desc(X); free_desc(desc) remove_from_radix_tree(); kfree(desc); raw_spinlock_irq(&desc->lock); /proc/interrupts is the only interface which can actively corrupt kernel memory via the lock access. /proc/stat can only read from freed memory. Extremly hard to trigger, but possible. The interfaces in /proc/irq/N/ are not affected by this because the removal of the proc file is serialized in procfs against concurrent readers/writers. The removal happens before the descriptor is freed. For architectures which have CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=n this is a non issue as the descriptor is never freed. It's merely cleared out with the irq descriptor lock held. So any concurrent proc access will either see the old correct value or the cleared out ones. Protect the lookup and access to the irq descriptor in show_interrupts() with the sparse_irq_lock. Provide kstat_irqs_usr() which is protecting the lookup and access with sparse_irq_lock and switch /proc/stat to use it. Document the existing kstat_irqs interfaces so it's clear that the caller needs to take care about protection. The users of these interfaces are either not affected due to SPARSE_IRQ=n or already protected against removal. Fixes: 1f5a5b87 "genirq: Implement a sane sparse_irq allocator" Signed-off-by:

commit b02efbfc upstream. In situations such as bond failover, The new session establishment implicitly invokes the termination of the old connection. So, we don't want to wait for the old connection wait_conn to completely terminate before we accept the new connection and post a login response. The solution is to deffer the comp_wait completion and the conn_put to a work so wait_conn will effectively be non-blocking (flush errors are assumed to come very fast). We allocate isert_release_wq with WQ_UNBOUND and WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE to spread the concurrency of release works. Reported-by:

commit 19e2090f upstream. Take isert_conn pointer from cm_id->qp->qp_context. This will allow us to know that the cm_id context is always the network portal. This will make the cm_id event check (connection or network portal) more reliable. In order to avoid a NULL dereference in cma_id->qp->qp_context we destroy the qp after we destroy the cm_id (and make the dereference safe). session stablishment/teardown sequences can happen in parallel, we should take into account that connected_handler might race with connection teardown flow. Also, protect isert_conn->conn_device->active_qps decrement within the error patch during QP creation failure and the normal teardown path in isert_connect_release().

commit 2371e5da upstream. There is no point in accepting a new CM request only when we are completely done with the last iscsi login. Instead we accept immediately, this will also cause the CM connection to reach connected state and the initiator is allowed to send the first login. We mark that we got the initial login and let iscsi layer pick it up when it gets there. This reduces the parallel login sequence by a factor of more then 4 (and more for multi-login) and also prevents the initiator (who does all logins in parallel) from giving up on login timeout expiration. In order to support multiple login requests sequence (CHAP) we call isert_rx_login_req from isert_rx_completion insead of letting isert_get_login_rx call it.

commit 128e9cc8 upstream. ISER_CONN_UP state is not sufficient to know if we should wait for completion of flush errors and disconnected_handler event. Instead, split it to 2 states: - ISER_CONN_UP: Got to CM connected phase, This state indicates that we need to wait for a CM disconnect event before going to teardown. - ISER_CONN_FULL_FEATURE: Got to full feature phase after we posted login response, This state indicates that we posted recv buffers and we need to wait for flush completions before going to teardown.

commit 954f2372 upstream. Since commit 0fc4ea70 ("Target/iser: Don't put isert_conn inside disconnected handler") we put the conn kref in isert_wait_conn, so we need .wait_conn to be invoked also in the error path. Introduce call to isert_conn_terminate (called under lock) which transitions the connection state to TERMINATING and calls rdma_disconnect. If the state is already teminating, just bail out back (temination started). Also, make sure to destroy the connection when getting a connect error event if didn't get to connected (state UP).

commit aee4e5f3 upstream. When recording the state of a task for the sched_switch tracepoint a check of task_preempt_count() is performed to see if PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set. This is because, technically, a task being preempted is really in the TASK_RUNNING state, and that is what should be recorded when tracing a sched_switch, even if the task put itself into another state (it hasn't scheduled out in that state yet). But with the change to use per_cpu preempt counts, the task_thread_info(p)->preempt_count is no longer used, and instead task_preempt_count(p) is used. The problem is that this does not use the current preempt count but a stale one from a previous sched_switch. The task_preempt_count(p) uses saved_preempt_count and not preempt_count(). But for tracing sched_switch, if p is current, we really want preempt_count(). I hit this bug when I was tracing sleep and the call from do_nanosleep() scheduled out in the "RUNNING" state. sleep-4290 [000] 537272.259992: sched_switch: sleep:4290 [120] R ==> swapper/0:0 [120] sleep-4290 [000] 537272.260015: kernel_stack: <stack trace> => __schedule (ffffffff8150864a) => schedule (ffffffff815089f8) => do_nanosleep (ffffffff8150b76c) => hrtimer_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d66b) => SyS_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d750) => return_to_handler (ffffffff8150e8e5) => tracesys_phase2 (ffffffff8150c844) After a bit of hair pulling, I found that the state was really TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, but the saved_preempt_count had an old PREEMPT_ACTIVE set and caused the sched_switch tracepoint to show it as RUNNING.

commit 66d2f338 upstream. Now that setgroups can be disabled and not reenabled, setting gid_map without privielge can now be enabled when setgroups is disabled. This restores most of the functionality that was lost when unprivileged setting of gid_map was removed. Applications that use this functionality will need to check to see if they use setgroups or init_groups, and if they don't they can be fixed by simply disabling setgroups before writing to gid_map.

commit 9cc46516 upstream. - Expose the knob to user space through a proc file /proc/<pid>/setgroups A value of "deny" means the setgroups system call is disabled in the current processes user namespace and can not be enabled in the future in this user namespace. A value of "allow" means the segtoups system call is enabled. - Descendant user namespaces inherit the value of setgroups from their parents. - A proc file is used (instead of a sysctl) as sysctls currently do not allow checking the permissions at open time. - Writing to the proc file is restricted to before the gid_map for the user namespace is set. This ensures that disabling setgroups at a user namespace level will never remove the ability to call setgroups from a process that already has that ability. A process may opt in to the setgroups disable for itself by creating, entering and configuring a user namespace or by calling setns on an existing user namespace with setgroups disabled. Processes without privileges already can not call setgroups so this is a noop. Prodcess with privilege become processes without privilege when entering a user namespace and as with any other path to dropping privilege they would not have the ability to call setgroups. So this remains within the bounds of what is possible without a knob to disable setgroups permanently in a user namespace. Signed-off-by:

commit 027bc8b0 upstream. On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk just before a write hanging the system. On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by default.

commit 7ae9cb81 upstream. Currently trying to use pstore on at least ARMs can hang as we're mapping the peristent RAM with pgprot_noncached(). On ARMs, pgprot_noncached() will actually make the memory strongly ordered, and as the atomic operations pstore uses are implementation defined for strongly ordered memory, they may not work. So basically atomic operations have undefined behavior on ARM for device or strongly ordered memory types. Let's fix the issue by using write-combine variants for mappings. This corresponds to normal, non-cacheable memory on ARM. For many other architectures, this change does not change the mapping type as by default we have: The reason why pgprot_noncached() was originaly used for pstore is because Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> had observed lost debug prints right before a device hanging write operation on some systems. For the platforms supporting pgprot_noncached(), we can add a an optional configuration option to support that. But let's get pstore working first before adding new features.

commit 9f49c376 upstream. Should probably just init this in the GMbus code all the time, based on the cdclk and HPLL like we do on newer platforms. Ville has code for that in a rework branch, but until then we can fix this bug fairly easily. Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76301Signed-off-by:
