[ Upstream commit 21af8107 ] Meelis Roos reports a crash in esp_free_lun_tag() in the presense of a disk which has died. The issue is that when we issue an autosense command, we do so by hijacking the original command that caused the check-condition. When we do so we clear out the ent->tag[] array when we issue it via find_and_prep_issuable_command(). This is so that the autosense command is forced to be issued non-tagged. That is problematic, because it is the value of ent->tag[] which determines whether we issued the original scsi command as tagged vs. non-tagged (see esp_alloc_lun_tag()). And that, in turn, is what trips up the sanity checks in esp_free_lun_tag(). That function needs the original ->tag[] values in order to free up the tag slot properly. Fix this by remembering the original command's tag values, and having esp_alloc_lun_tag() and esp_free_lun_tag() use them. Reported-by:

commit f8776218 upstream. While playing the peripheral role, the host gets a LE Long Term Key Request Event from the controller when a connection is established with a bonded device. The host then informs the LTK which should be used for the connection. Once the link is encrypted, the host gets an Encryption Change Event. Therefore we should set conn->pending_sec_level instead of conn-> sec_level in hci_le_ltk_request_evt. This way, conn->sec_level is properly updated in hci_encrypt_change_evt. Moreover, since we have a LTK associated to the device, we have at least BT_SECURITY_MEDIUM security level. Signed-off-by:

commit d9813c36 upstream. The csum_partial_copy_generic() uses register r7 to adjust the remaining bytes to process. Unfortunately, r7 also holds a parameter, namely the address of the flag to set in case of access exceptions while reading the source buffer. Lacking a quantum implementation of PowerPC, this commit instead uses register r9 to do the adjusting, leaving r7's pointer uncorrupted. Signed-off-by:

commit 1cf389df upstream. Under heavy (DLPAR?) stress, we tripped this panic() in arch/powerpc/kernel/iommu.c::iommu_init_table(): page = alloc_pages_node(nid, GFP_ATOMIC, get_order(sz)); if (!page) panic("iommu_init_table: Can't allocate %ld bytes\n", sz); Before the panic() we got a page allocation failure for an order-2 allocation. There appears to be memory free, but perhaps not in the ATOMIC context. I looked through all the call-sites of iommu_init_table() and didn't see any obvious reason to need an ATOMIC allocation. Most call-sites in fact have an explicit GFP_KERNEL allocation shortly before the call to iommu_init_table(), indicating we are not in an atomic context. There is some indirection for some paths, but I didn't see any locks indicating that GFP_KERNEL is inappropriate. With this change under the same conditions, we have not been able to reproduce the panic. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7167cf0e ] The dma descriptors indexes are only initialized on the probe function. If a packet is on the buffer when temac_stop is called, the dma descriptors indexes can be left on a incorrect state where no other package can be sent. So an interface could be left in an usable state after ifdow/ifup. This patch makes sure that the descriptors indexes are in a proper status when the device is open. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 5a0068de ] Recently grabbed this report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005567 Of an issue in which the bonding driver, with an attached vlan encountered the following errors when bond0 was taken down and back up: dummy1: promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity feature of device might be broken. The error occurs because, during __bond_release_one, if we release our last slave, we take on a random mac address and issue a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR notification. With an attached vlan, the vlan may see that the vlan and bond mac address were in sync, but no longer are. This triggers a call to dev_uc_add and dev_set_rx_mode, which enables IFF_PROMISC on the bond device. Then, when we complete __bond_release_one, we use the current state of the bond flags to determine if we should decrement the promiscuity of the releasing slave. But since the bond changed promiscuity state during the release operation, we incorrectly decrement the slave promisc count when it wasn't in promiscuous mode to begin with, causing the above error Fix is pretty simple, just cache the bonding flags at the start of the function and use those when determining the need to set promiscuity. This is also needed for the ALLMULTI flag Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 2811ebac ] In the following scenario the socket is corked: If the first UDP packet is larger then the mtu we try to append it to the write queue via ip6_ufo_append_data. A following packet, which is smaller than the mtu would be appended to the already queued up gso-skb via plain ip6_append_data. This causes random memory corruptions. In ip6_ufo_append_data we also have to be careful to not queue up the same skb multiple times. So setup the gso frame only when no first skb is available. This also fixes a shortcoming where we add the current packet's length to cork->length but return early because of a packet > mtu with dontfrag set (instead of sutracting it again).

[ Upstream commit 703133de ] If local fragmentation is allowed, then ip_select_ident() and ip_select_ident_more() need to generate unique IDs to ensure correct defragmentation on the peer. For example, if IPsec (tunnel mode) has to encrypt large skbs that have local_df bit set, then all IP fragments that belonged to different ESP datagrams would have used the same identificator. If one of these IP fragments would get lost or reordered, then peer could possibly stitch together wrong IP fragments that did not belong to the same datagram. This would lead to a packet loss or data corruption. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit be4f154d ] At some point limits were added to forward_delay. However, the limits are only enforced when STP is enabled. This created a scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP is enabled. This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP. I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is no window where someone could insert a value outside the range while we're in the middle of enabling STP. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 95ee6208 ] Alan Chester reported an issue with IPv6 on SCTP that IPsec traffic is not being encrypted, whereas on IPv4 it is. Setting up an AH + ESP transport does not seem to have the desired effect: SCTP + IPv4: 22:14:20.809645 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto AH (51), length 116) 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.5: AH(spi=0x00000042,sumlen=16,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00000044,seq=0x1), length 72 22:14:20.813270 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto AH (51), length 340) 192.168.0.5 > 192.168.0.2: AH(spi=0x00000043,sumlen=16,seq=0x1): SCTP + IPv6: 22:31:19.215029 IP6 (class 0x02, hlim 64, next-header SCTP (132) payload length: 364) fe80::222:15ff:fe87:7fc.3333 > fe80::92e6:baff:fe0d:5a54.36767: sctp 1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 747759530] [rwnd: 62464] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] Moreover, Alan says: This problem was seen with both Racoon and Racoon2. Other people have seen this with OpenSwan. When IPsec is configured to encrypt all upper layer protocols the SCTP connection does not initialize. After using Wireshark to follow packets, this is because the SCTP packet leaves Box A unencrypted and Box B believes all upper layer protocols are to be encrypted so it drops this packet, causing the SCTP connection to fail to initialize. When IPsec is configured to encrypt just SCTP, the SCTP packets are observed unencrypted. In fact, using `socat sctp6-listen:3333 -` on one end and transferring "plaintext" string on the other end, results in cleartext on the wire where SCTP eventually does not report any errors, thus in the latter case that Alan reports, the non-paranoid user might think he's communicating over an encrypted transport on SCTP although he's not (tcpdump ... -X): ... 0x0030: 5d70 8e1a 0003 001a 177d eb6c 0000 0000 ]p.......}.l.... 0x0040: 0000 0000 706c 6169 6e74 6578 740a 0000 ....plaintext... Only in /proc/net/xfrm_stat we can see XfrmInTmplMismatch increasing on the receiver side. Initial follow-up analysis from Alan's bug report was done by Alexey Dobriyan. Also thanks to Vlad Yasevich for feedback on this. SCTP has its own implementation of sctp_v6_xmit() not calling inet6_csk_xmit(). This has the implication that it probably never really got updated along with changes in inet6_csk_xmit() and therefore does not seem to invoke xfrm handlers. SCTP's IPv4 xmit however, properly calls ip_queue_xmit() to do the work. Since a call to inet6_csk_xmit() would solve this problem, but result in unecessary route lookups, let us just use the cached flowi6 instead that we got through sctp_v6_get_dst(). Since all SCTP packets are being sent through sctp_packet_transmit(), we do the route lookup / flow caching in sctp_transport_route(), hold it in tp->dst and skb_dst_set() right after that. If we would alter fl6->daddr in sctp_v6_xmit() to np->opt->srcrt, we possibly could run into the same effect of not having xfrm layer pick it up, hence, use fl6_update_dst() in sctp_v6_get_dst() instead to get the correct source routed dst entry, which we assign to the skb. Also source address routing example from 62503411 ("sctp: fix sctp to work with ipv6 source address routing") still works with this patch! Nevertheless, in RFC5095 it is actually 'recommended' to not use that anyway due to traffic amplification [1]. So it seems we're not supposed to do that anyway in sctp_v6_xmit(). Moreover, if we overwrite the flow destination here, the lower IPv6 layer will be unable to put the correct destination address into IP header, as routing header is added in ipv6_push_nfrag_opts() but then probably with wrong final destination. Things aside, result of this patch is that we do not have any XfrmInTmplMismatch increase plus on the wire with this patch it now looks like: SCTP + IPv6: 08:17:47.074080 IP6 2620:52:0:102f:7a2b:cbff:fe27:1b0a > 2620:52:0:102f:213:72ff:fe32:7eba: AH(spi=0x00005fb4,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00005fb5,seq=0x1), length 72 08:17:47.074264 IP6 2620:52:0:102f:213:72ff:fe32:7eba > 2620:52:0:102f:7a2b:cbff:fe27:1b0a: AH(spi=0x00003d54,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00003d55,seq=0x1), length 296 This fixes Kernel Bugzilla 24412. This security issue seems to be present since 2.6.18 kernels. Lets just hope some big passive adversary in the wild didn't have its fun with that. lksctp-tools IPv6 regression test suite passes as well with this patch.

[ Upstream commit 88362ad8 ] This was originally reported in [1] and posted by Neil Horman [2], he said: Fix up a missed null pointer check in the asconf code. If we don't find a local address, but we pass in an address length of more than 1, we may dereference a NULL laddr pointer. Currently this can't happen, as the only users of the function pass in the value 1 as the addrcnt parameter, but its not hot path, and it doesn't hurt to check for NULL should that ever be the case. The callpath from sctp_asconf_mgmt() looks okay. But this could be triggered from sctp_setsockopt_bindx() call with SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR and addrcnt > 1 while passing all possible addresses from the bind list to SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR so that we do *not* find a single address in the association's bind address list that is not in the packed array of addresses. If this happens when we have an established association with ASCONF-capable peers, then we could get a NULL pointer dereference as we only check for laddr == NULL && addrcnt == 1 and call later sctp_make_asconf_update_ip() with NULL laddr. BUT: this actually won't happen as sctp_bindx_rem() will catch such a case and return with an error earlier. As this is incredably unintuitive and error prone, add a check to catch at least future bugs here. As Neil says, its not hot path. Introduced by 8a07eb0a ("sctp: Add ASCONF operation on the single-homed host").

commit b98b8bab upstream. This is primarily to address transmission timeout occurrences, when multiple H/W Tx queues are being used concurrently.

commit 465adcf1 A memcg may livelock when oom if the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock is never the first process with PF_EXITING set in the memcg's task iteration. The oom killer, both global and memcg, will defer if it finds an eligible process that is in the process of exiting and it is not being ptraced. The idea is to allow it to exit without using memory reserves before needlessly killing another process. This normally works fine except in the memcg case with a large number of threads attached to the oom memcg. In this case, the memcg oom killer only gets called for the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock; all others end up blocked on the memcg's oom waitqueue. Thus, if the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock is never the first PF_EXITING process in the memcg's task iteration, the oom killer is constantly deferred without anything making progress. The fix is to give PF_EXITING processes access to memory reserves so that we've marked them as oom killed without any iteration. This allows __mem_cgroup_try_charge() to succeed so that the process may exit. This makes the memcg oom killer exemption for TIF_MEMDIE tasks, now immediately granted for processes with pending SIGKILLs and those in the exit path, to be equivalent to what is done for the global oom killer.

commit 60e356f3 upstream. LVM2, since version 2.02.96, creates origin with zero size, then loads the snapshot driver and then loads the origin. Consequently, the snapshot driver sees the origin size zero and sets the hash size to the lower bound 64. Such small hash table causes performance degradation. This patch changes it so that the hash size is determined by the size of snapshot volume, not minimum of origin and snapshot size. It doesn't make sense to set the snapshot size significantly larger than the origin size, so we do not need to take origin size into account when calculating the hash size. Signed-off-by:

commit 5ea330a7 upstream. The kernel reports a lockdep warning if a snapshot is invalidated because it runs out of space. The lockdep warning was triggered by commit 0976dfc1 ("workqueue: Catch more locking problems with flush_work()") in v3.5. The warning is false positive. The real cause for the warning is that the lockdep engine treats different instances of md->lock as a single lock. This patch is a workaround - we use flush_workqueue instead of flush_work. This code path is not performance sensitive (it is called only on initialization or invalidation), thus it doesn't matter that we flush the whole workqueue. The real fix for the problem would be to teach the lockdep engine to treat different instances of md->lock as separate locks. Signed-off-by:

Trying to read data from the Pegasus Technologies NoteTaker (0e20:0101) [1] with the Windows App (EasyNote) works natively but fails when Windows is running under KVM (and the USB device handed to KVM). The reason is a USB control message usb 4-2.2: control urb: bRequestType=22 bRequest=09 wValue=0200 wIndex=0001 wLength=0008 This goes to endpoint address 0x01 (wIndex); however, endpoint address 0x01 does not exist. There is an endpoint 0x81 though (same number, but other direction); the app may have meant that endpoint instead. The kernel thus rejects the IO and thus we see the failure. Apparently, Linux is more strict here than Windows ... we can't change the Win app easily, so that's a problem. It seems that the Win app/driver is buggy here and the driver does not behave fully according to the USB HID class spec that it claims to belong to. The device seems to happily deal with that though (and seems to not really care about this value much). So the question is whether the Linux kernel should filter here. Rejecting has the risk that somewhat non-compliant userspace apps/ drivers (most likely in a virtual machine) are prevented from working. Not rejecting has the risk of confusing an overly sensitive device with such a transfer. Given the fact that Windows does not filter it makes this risk rather small though. The patch makes the kernel more tolerant: If the endpoint address in wIndex does not exist, but an endpoint with toggled direction bit does, it will let the transfer through. (It does NOT change the message.) With attached patch, the app in Windows in KVM works. usb 4-2.2: check_ctrlrecip: process 13073 (qemu-kvm) requesting ep 01 but needs 81 I suspect this will mostly affect apps in virtual environments; as on Linux the apps would have been adapted to the stricter handling of the kernel. I have done that for mine[2]. [1] http://www.pegatech.com/ [2] https://sourceforge.net/projects/notetakerpen/Signed-off-by:

commit 526867c3 upstream. The halted state of a endpoint cannot be cleared over CLEAR_HALT from a user process, because the stopped_td variable was overwritten in the handle_stopped_endpoint() function. So the xhci_endpoint_reset() function will refuse the reset and communication with device can not run over this endpoint. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60699Signed-off-by:

commit 284d2055 upstream. When a command times out, the command ring is first aborted, and then stopped. If the command ring is empty when it is stopped the stop event will point to next command which is not yet set. xHCI tries to handle this next event often causing an oops. Don't handle command completion events on stopped cmd ring if ring is empty. This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.7, that contain the commit b92cc66c "xHCI: add aborting command ring function" Signed-off-by:

commit ec7e43e2 upstream. If a command on the command ring needs to be cancelled before it is handled it can be turned to a no-op operation when the ring is stopped. We want to store the command ring enqueue pointer in the command structure when the command in enqueued for the cancellation case. Some commands used to store the command ring dequeue pointers instead of enqueue (these often worked because enqueue happends to equal dequeue quite often) Other commands correctly used the enqueue pointer but did not check if it pointed to a valid trb or a link trb, this caused for example stop endpoint command to timeout in xhci_stop_device() in about 2% of suspend/resume cases. This should also solve some weird behavior happening in command cancellation cases. This patch is based on a patch submitted by Sarah Sharp to linux-usb, but then forgotten: http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=136269803207465&w=2 This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.7, that contain the commit b92cc66c "xHCI: add aborting command ring function" Signed-off-by:
