      md/raid10: fix two bugs in handling of known-bad-blocks. · 7e34f43d
      NeilBrown authored
      commit b50c259e upstream.
      
      If we discover a bad block when reading we split the request and
      potentially read some of it from a different device.
      
      The code path of this has two bugs in RAID10.
      1/ we get a spin_lock with _irq, but unlock without _irq!!
      2/ The calculation of 'sectors_handled' is wrong, as can be clearly
         seen by comparison with raid1.c
      
      This leads to at least 2 warnings and a probable crash is a RAID10
      ever had known bad blocks.

      md/raid10: fix bug when raid10 recovery fails to recover a block. · 511375d1
      NeilBrown authored
      commit e8b84915 upstream.
      
      commit e875ecea
          md/raid10 record bad blocks as needed during recovery.
      
      added code to the "cannot recover this block" path to record a bad
      block rather than fail the whole recovery.
      Unfortunately this new case was placed *after* r10bio was freed rather
      than *before*, yet it still uses r10bio.
      This is will crash with a null dereference.
      
      So move the freeing of r10bio down where it is safe.

      nilfs2: fix segctor bug that causes file system corruption · ddcb318f
      Andreas Rohner authored
      commit 70f2fe3a upstream.
      
      There is a bug in the function nilfs_segctor_collect, which results in
      active data being written to a segment, that is marked as clean.  It is
      possible, that this segment is selected for a later segment
      construction, whereby the old data is overwritten.
      
      The problem shows itself with the following kernel log message:
      
        nilfs_sufile_do_cancel_free: segment 6533 must be clean
      
      Usually a few hours later the file system gets corrupted:
      
        NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=8748107): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 0
        NILFS error (device sdc1): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=114660)
      
      The issue can be reproduced with a file system that is nearly full and
      with the cleaner running, while some IO intensive task is running.
      Although it is quite hard to reproduce.
      
      This is what happens:
      
       1. The cleaner starts the segment construction
       2. nilfs_segctor_collect is called
       3. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed
       4. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_DAT current segment is full
       5. nilfs_segctor_extend_segments is called, which
          allocates a new segment
       6. The new segment is one of the segments freed in step 3
       7. nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called and produces an error message
       8. Loop around and the collection starts again
       9. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed
          including the newly allocated segment, which will contain active
          data and can be allocated at a later time
      10. A few hours later another segment construction allocates the
          segment and causes file system corruption
      
      This can be prevented by simply reordering the statements.  If
      nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called before nilfs_segctor_extend_segments
      the freed segments are marked as dirty and cannot be allocated any more.

      SELinux: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference in selinux_inode_permission() · 9e74d93d

        CR2: 0000000000000020
      
      Investigating, I found that the inode->i_security was NULL, and the
      dereference of it caused the oops.
      
      in selinux_inode_permission():
      
      	isec = inode->i_security;
      
      	rc = avc_has_perm_noaudit(sid, isec->sid, isec->sclass, perms, 0, &avd);
      
      Note, the crash came from stressing the deletion and reading of debugfs
      files.  I was not able to recreate this via normal files.  But I'm not
      sure they are safe.  It may just be that the race window is much harder
      to hit.
      
      What seems to have happened (and what I have traced), is the file is
      being opened at the same time the file or directory is being deleted.
      As the dentry and inode locks are not held during the path walk, nor is
      the inodes ref counts being incremented, there is nothing saving these
      structures from being discarded except for an rcu_read_lock().
      
      The rcu_read_lock() protects against freeing of the inode, but it does
      not protect freeing of the inode_security_struct.  Now if the freeing of
      the i_security happens with a call_rcu(), and the i_security field of
      the inode is not changed (it gets freed as the inode gets freed) then
      there will be no issue here.  (Linus Torvalds suggested not setting the
      field to NULL such that we do not need to check if it is NULL in the
      permission check).
      
      Note, this is a hack, but it fixes the problem at hand.  A real fix is
      to restructure the destroy_inode() to call all the destructor handlers
      from the RCU callback.  But that is a major job to do, and requires a
      lot of work.  For now, we just band-aid this bug with this fix (it
      works), and work on a more maintainable solution in the future.

      hwmon: (coretemp) Fix truncated name of alarm attributes · e34cdde4
      Jean Delvare authored
      commit 3f9aec76 upstream.
      
      When the core number exceeds 9, the size of the buffer storing the
      alarm attribute name is insufficient and the attribute name is
      truncated. This causes libsensors to skip these attributes as the
      truncated name is not recognized.

      perf/x86/amd/ibs: Fix waking up from S3 for AMD family 10h · 7e99f216
      Robert Richter authored
      commit bee09ed9 upstream.
      
      On AMD family 10h we see following error messages while waking up from
      S3 for all non-boot CPUs leading to a failed IBS initialization:
      
       Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
       smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1
       [Firmware Bug]: cpu 1, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu
       perf: IBS APIC setup failed on cpu #1
       process: Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1
       CPU1 is up
       ...
       ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3
      
      Reason for this is that during suspend the LVT offset for the IBS
      vector gets lost and needs to be reinialized while resuming.
      
      The offset is read from the IBSCTL msr. On family 10h the offset needs
      to be 1 as offset 0 is used for the MCE threshold interrupt, but
      firmware assings it for IBS to 0 too. The kernel needs to reprogram
      the vector. The msr is a readonly node msr, but a new value can be
      written via pci config space access. The reinitialization is
      implemented for family 10h in setup_ibs_ctl() which is forced during
      IBS setup.
      
      This patch fixes IBS setup after waking up from S3 by adding
      resume/supend hooks for the boot cpu which does the offset
      reinitialization.
      
      Marking it as stable to let distros pick up this fix.

      staging: comedi: 8255_pci: fix for newer PCI-DIO48H · 6013932c
      Ian Abbott authored
      commit 0283f7a1 upstream.
      
      At some point, Measurement Computing / ComputerBoards redesigned the
      PCI-DIO48H to use a PLX PCI interface chip instead of an AMCC chip.
      This meant they had to put their hardware registers in the PCI BAR 2
      region instead of PCI BAR 1.  Unfortunately, they kept the same PCI
      device ID for the new design.  This means the driver recognizes the
      newer cards, but doesn't work (and is likely to screw up the local
      configuration registers of the PLX chip) because it's using the wrong
      region.
      
      Since  the PCI subvendor and subdevice IDs were both zero on the old
      design, but are the same as the vendor and device on the new design, we
      can tell the old design and new design apart easily enough.  Split the
      existing entry for the PCI-DIO48H in `pci_8255_boards[]` into two new
      entries, referenced by different entries in the PCI device ID table
      `pci_8255_pci_table[]`.  Use the same board name for both entries.

      KVM: x86: Convert vapic synchronization to _cached functions (CVE-2013-6368) · 777f8f3b
      Andy Honig authored
      commit fda4e2e8 upstream.
      
      In kvm_lapic_sync_from_vapic and kvm_lapic_sync_to_vapic there is the
      potential to corrupt kernel memory if userspace provides an address that
      is at the end of a page.  This patches concerts those functions to use
      kvm_write_guest_cached and kvm_read_guest_cached.  It also checks the
      vapic_address specified by userspace during ioctl processing and returns
      an error to userspace if the address is not a valid GPA.
      
      This is generally not guest triggerable, because the required write is
      done by firmware that runs before the guest.  Also, it only affects AMD
      processors and oldish Intel that do not have the FlexPriority feature
      (unless you disable FlexPriority, of course; then newer processors are
      also affected).
