commit a70b52ec upstream. We had for some reason overlooked the AIO interface, and it didn't use the proper rw_verify_area() helper function that checks (for example) mandatory locking on the file, and that the size of the access doesn't cause us to overflow the provided offset limits etc. Instead, AIO did just the security_file_permission() thing (that rw_verify_area() also does) directly. This fixes it to do all the proper helper functions, which not only means that now mandatory file locking works with AIO too, we can actually remove lines of code. Reported-by:

commit 31a67102 upstream. During early boot, when the scheduler hasn't really been fully set up, we really can't do blocking allocations because with certain (dubious) configurations the "might_resched()" calls can actually result in scheduling events. We could just make such users always use GFP_ATOMIC, but quite often the code that does the allocation isn't really aware of the fact that the scheduler isn't up yet, and forcing that kind of random knowledge on the initialization code is just annoying and not good for anybody. And we actually have a the 'gfp_allowed_mask' exactly for this reason: it's just that the kernel init sequence happens to set it to allow blocking allocations much too early. So move the 'gfp_allowed_mask' initialization from 'start_kernel()' (which is some of the earliest init code, and runs with preemption disabled for good reasons) into 'kernel_init()'. kernel_init() is run in the newly created thread that will become the 'init' process, as opposed to the early startup code that runs within the context of what will be the first idle thread. So by the time we reach 'kernel_init()', we know that the scheduler must be at least limping along, because we've already scheduled from the idle thread into the init thread. Reported-by:

commit fc25f79a upstream. OEM parameters [1] are parsed from the platform option-rom / efi driver. By default the driver was validating the parameters for the dual-controller case, but in single-controller case only the first set of parameters may be valid. Limit the validation to the number of actual controllers detected otherwise the driver may fail to parse the valid parameters leading to driver-load or runtime failures.

commit d5e50a51 upstream. When setting the current task state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE this can race with a different cpu. The other cpu could set the task state after it inspected it (while it was still TASK_RUNNING) to TASK_RUNNING which would change the state from TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE to TASK_RUNNING again. This race was always present in the pfault interrupt code but didn't cause anything harmful before commit f2db2e6c "[S390] pfault: cpu hotplug vs missing completion interrupts" which relied on the fact that after setting the task state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE the task would really sleep. Since this is not necessarily the case the result may be a list corruption of the pfault_list or, as observed, a use-after-free bug while trying to access the task_struct of a task which terminated itself already. To fix this, we need to get a reference of the affected task when receiving the initial pfault interrupt and add special handling if we receive yet another initial pfault interrupt when the task is already enqueued in the pfault list.

commit 45de6767 upstream. Use the 32-bit compat keyctl() syscall wrapper on Sparc64 for Sparc32 binary compatibility. Without this, keyctl(KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE_IOV) is liable to malfunction as it uses an iovec array read from userspace - though the kernel should survive this as it checks pointers and sizes anyway. I think all the other keyctl() function should just work, provided (a) the top 32-bits of each 64-bit argument register are cleared prior to invoking the syscall routine, and the 32-bit address space is right at the 0-end of the 64-bit address space. Most of the arguments are 32-bit anyway, and so for those clearing is not required. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com cc: "David S.

commit e42fafc2 upstream. The ioc->pfacts member in the IOC structure is getting set to zero following a call to _base_get_ioc_facts due to the memset in that routine. So if the ioc->pfacts was read after a host reset, there would be a NULL pointer dereference. The routine _base_get_ioc_facts is called from context of host reset. The problem in _base_get_ioc_facts is the size of Mpi2IOCFactsReply is 64, whereas the sizeof "struct mpt2sas_facts" is 60, so there is a four byte overflow resulting from the memset. Also, there is memset in _base_get_port_facts using the incorrect structure, it should be "struct mpt2sas_port_facts" instead of Mpi2PortFactsReply. Signed-off-by:

commit 80007efe upstream. It has happened twice now where elaborate troubleshooting has undergone on systems where CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB [0] has been set but yet net/wireless/db.txt was not updated. Despite the documentation on this it seems system integrators could use some more help with this, so throw out a kernel warning at boot time when their database is empty. This does mean that the error-prone system integrator won't likely realize the issue until they boot the machine but -- it does not seem to make sense to enable a build bug breaking random build testing.

commit 9bc3711c upstream. Upgraded firmware on Smart Array P7xx (and some others) made them show up as SCSI revision 5 devices and this caused the driver to fail to map MSA2xxx logical drives to the correct bus/target/lun. A symptom of this would be that the target ID of the logical drives as presented by the external storage array is ignored, and all such logical drives are assigned to target zero, differentiated only by LUN. Some multipath software reportedly does not deal well with this behavior, failing to recognize different paths to the same device as such. Signed-off-by:

commit e6d9668e upstream. Some discussion with the glibc mailing lists revealed that this was necessary for 64-bit platforms with MIPS-like sign-extension rules for 32-bit values. The original symptom was that passing (uid_t)-1 to setreuid() was failing in programs linked -pthread because of the "setxid" mechanism for passing setxid-type function arguments to the syscall code. SYSCALL_WRAPPERS handles ensuring that all syscall arguments end up with proper sign-extension and is thus the appropriate fix for this problem. On other platforms (s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips) this was fixed in 2.6.28.6. The general issue is tracked as CVE-2009-0029. Signed-off-by:

commit b3cb8674 upstream. Due to an errata, the PA7300LC generates a TLB miss interruption even on the prefetch instruction. This means that prefetch(NULL), which is supposed to be a nop on linux actually generates a NULL deref fault. Fix this by testing the address of prefetch against NULL before doing the prefetch.

commit 207f583d upstream. As pointed out by serveral people, PA1.1 only has a type 26 instruction meaning that the space register must be explicitly encoded.

commit f908ee94 upstream. The number of bio_get_nr_vecs() is passed down via bio_alloc() to bvec_alloc_bs(), which fails the bio allocation if nr_iovecs > BIO_MAX_PAGES. For the underlying caller this causes an unexpected bio allocation failure. Limiting to queue_max_segments() is not sufficient, as max_segments also might be very large. bvec_alloc_bs(gfp_mask, nr_iovecs, ) => NULL when nr_iovecs > BIO_MAX_PAGES bio_alloc_bioset(gfp_mask, nr_iovecs, ...) bio_alloc(GFP_NOIO, nvecs) xfs_alloc_ioend_bio() Signed-off-by:

commit 5abebfdd upstream. There were two places bio_get_nr_vecs() could overflow: First, it did a left shift to convert from sectors to bytes immediately before dividing by PAGE_SIZE. If PAGE_SIZE ever was less than 512 a great many things would break, so dividing by PAGE_SIZE >> 9 is safe and will generate smaller code too. The nastier overflow was in the DIV_ROUND_UP() (that's what the code was effectively doing, anyways). If n + d overflowed, the whole thing would return 0 which breaks things rather effectively. bio_get_nr_vecs() doesn't claim to give an exact value anyways, so the DIV_ROUND_UP() is silly; we could do a straight divide except if a device's queue_max_sectors was less than PAGE_SIZE we'd return 0. So we just add 1; this should always be safe - things will break badly if bio_get_nr_vecs() returns > BIO_MAX_PAGES (bio_alloc() will suddenly start failing) but it's queue_max_segments that must guard against this, if queue_max_sectors is preventing this from happen things are going to explode on architectures with different PAGE_SIZE.

(cherry picked from commit 21a1416a) As pointed out by Jason Baron, when assigning a device to a guest we first set the iommu domain pointer, which enables mapping and unmapping of memory slots to the iommu. This leaves a window where this path is enabled, but we haven't synchronized the iommu mappings to the existing memory slots. Thus a slot being removed at that point could send us down unexpected code paths removing non-existent pinnings and iommu mappings. Take the slots_lock around creating the iommu domain and initial mappings as well as around iommu teardown to avoid this race. Signed-off-by:

Fix by: - ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called - ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without kvm->lock held.
