commit 1f3f6877 upstream. The USB device descriptor of one identity presented by a few Huawei morphing devices have serial functions with class codes 02/02/ff, indicating CDC ACM with a vendor specific protocol. This combination is often used for MSFT RNDIS functions, and the CDC ACM class driver will therefore ignore such functions. The CDC ACM class driver cannot support functions with only 2 endpoints. The underlying serial functions of these modems are also believed to be the same as for alternate device identities already supported by the option driver. Letting the same driver handle these functions independently of the current identity ensures consistent handling and user experience. There is no need to blacklist these devices in the rndis_host driver. Huawei serial functions will either have only 2 endpoints or a CDC ACM functional descriptor with bmCapabilities != 0, making them correctly ignored as "non RNDIS" by that driver. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 08dcdbf6 ] It looks like its possible to open thousands of TCP IPv6 sessions on a server, all landing in a single slot of TCP hash table. Incoming packets have to lookup sockets in a very long list. We should hash all bits from foreign IPv6 addresses, using a salt and hash mix, not a simple XOR. inet6_ehashfn() can also separately use the ports, instead of xoring them. Reported-by:

This may happen both in the fatal error path and during normal disconnection from the front end. The sequencing during shutdown is critical to ensure that: a) vif->netbk doesn't become unexpectedly NULL; and b) the net device/vif is not freed. 1. Mark as unschedulable (netif_carrier_off()). 2.

commit ae128786 upstream. If grub2 loads efifb/vesafb, then when systemd starts it can set the console font on that framebuffer device, however when we then load the native KMS driver, the first thing it does is tear down the generic framebuffer driver. The thing is the generic code is doing the right thing, it frees the font because otherwise it would leak memory. However we can assume that if you are removing the generic firmware driver (vesa/efi/offb), that a new driver *should* be loading soon after, so we effectively leak the font. However the old code left a dangling pointer in vc->vc_font.data and we can now reuse that dangling pointer to load the font into the new driver, now that we aren't freeing it.

When write protecting a page for COW, we need to purge the existing translation. Otherwise, the COW break doesn't occur as expected because the TLB may still have a stale entry which allows writes.

commit 754ab5c0 upstream. Comedi has two sorts of minor devices: (a) normal board minor devices in the range 0 to COMEDI_NUM_BOARD_MINORS-1 inclusive; and (b) special subdevice minor devices in the range COMEDI_NUM_BOARD_MINORS upwards that are used to open the same underlying comedi device as the normal board minor devices, but with non-default read and write subdevices for asynchronous commands. The special subdevice minor devices get created when a board supporting asynchronous commands is attached to a normal board minor device, and destroyed when the board is detached from the normal board minor device. One way to attach or detach a board is by using the COMEDI_DEVCONFIG ioctl. This should only be used on normal board minors as the special subdevice minors are too ephemeral. In particular, the change introduced in commit 7d3135af ("staging: comedi: prevent auto-unconfig of manually configured devices") breaks horribly for special subdevice minor devices. Since there's no legitimate use for the COMEDI_DEVCONFIG ioctl on a special subdevice minor device node, disallow it and return -ENOTTY. Signed-off-by:

commit 0720a06a upstream. The utf8s_to_utf16s conversion routine needs to be improved. Unlike its utf16s_to_utf8s sibling, it doesn't accept arguments specifying the maximum length of the output buffer or the endianness of its 16-bit output. This patch (as1501) adds the two missing arguments, and adjusts the only two places in the kernel where the function is called. A follow-on patch will add a third caller that does utilize the new capabilities. The two conversion routines are still annoyingly inconsistent in the way they handle invalid byte combinations. But that's a subject for a different patch. Signed-off-by:

commit b531f81b upstream. Commit 99fc8645 "ALSA: usb-mixer: parse descriptors with structs" introduced a set of useful parsers for descriptors. Unfortunately the parses for the Processing Unit Descriptor came with a very subtle bug... Functions uac_processing_unit_iProcessing() and uac_processing_unit_specific() were indexing the baSourceID array forgetting the fields before the iProcessing and process-specific descriptors. The problem was observed with Sound Blaster Extigy mixer, where nNrModes in Up/Down-mix Processing Unit Descriptor was accessed at offset 10 of the descriptor (value 0) instead of offset 15 (value 7). In result the resulting control had interesting limit values: Simple mixer control 'Channel Routing Mode Select',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined penum Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - -1 Mono: -1 [100%] Fixed by starting from the bmControls, which was calculated correctly, instead of baSourceID. Now the mentioned control is fine: Simple mixer control 'Channel Routing Mode Select',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined penum Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 6 Mono: 0 [0%] Signed-off-by:

commit 67d46b29 upstream. Rob van der Heij reported the following (paraphrased) on private mail. The scenario is that I want to avoid backups to fill up the page cache and purge stuff that is more likely to be used again (this is with s390x Linux on z/VM, so I don't give it as much memory that we don't care anymore). So I have something with LD_PRELOAD that intercepts the close() call (from tar, in this case) and issues a posix_fadvise() just before closing the file. This mostly works, except for small files (less than 14 pages) that remains in page cache after the face. Unfortunately Rob has not had a chance to test this exact patch but the test program below should be reproducing the problem he described. The issue is the per-cpu pagevecs for LRU additions. If the pages are added by one CPU but fadvise() is called on another then the pages remain resident as the invalidate_mapping_pages() only drains the local pagevecs via its call to pagevec_release(). The user-visible effect is that a program that uses fadvise() properly is not obeyed. A possible fix for this is to put the necessary smarts into invalidate_mapping_pages() to globally drain the LRU pagevecs if a pagevec page could not be discarded. The downside with this is that an inode cache shrink would send a global IPI and memory pressure potentially causing global IPI storms is very undesirable. Instead, this patch adds a check during fadvise(POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) to check if invalidate_mapping_pages() discarded all the requested pages. If a subset of pages are discarded it drains the LRU pagevecs and tries again. If the second attempt fails, it assumes it is due to the pages being mapped, locked or dirty and does not care. With this patch, an application using fadvise() correctly will be obeyed but there is a downside that a malicious application can force the kernel to send global IPIs and increase overhead. If accepted, I would like this to be considered as a -stable candidate. It's not an urgent issue but it's a system call that is not working as advertised which is weak. The following test program demonstrates the problem. It should never report that pages are still resident but will without this patch. It assumes that CPU 0 and 1 exist. int main() { int fd; int pagesize = getpagesize(); ssize_t written = 0, expected; char *buf; unsigned char *vec; int resident, i; cpu_set_t set; /* Prepare a buffer for writing */ expected = FILESIZE_PAGES * pagesize; buf = malloc(expected + 1); if (buf == NULL) { printf("ENOMEM\n"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } buf[expected] = 0; memset(buf, 'a', expected); /* Prepare the mincore vec */ vec = malloc(FILESIZE_PAGES); if (vec == NULL) { printf("ENOMEM\n"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* Bind ourselves to CPU 0 */ CPU_ZERO(&set); CPU_SET(0, &set); if (sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1) { perror("sched_setaffinity"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* open file, unlink and write buffer */ fd = open("fadvise-test-file", O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_RDWR); if (fd == -1) { perror("open"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } unlink("fadvise-test-file"); while (written < expected) { ssize_t this_write; this_write = write(fd, buf + written, expected - written); if (this_write == -1) { perror("write"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } written += this_write; } free(buf); /* * Force ourselves to another CPU.

commit 5f00110f upstream. The tmpfs remount logic preserves filesystem mempolicy if the mpol=M option is not specified in the remount request. A new policy can be specified if mpol=M is given. Before this patch remounting an mpol bound tmpfs without specifying mpol= mount option in the remount request would set the filesystem's mempolicy object to a freed mempolicy object. To reproduce the problem boot a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC kernel and run: # mkdir /tmp/x # mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M,mpol=interleave nodev /tmp/x # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=102400k,mpol=interleave:0-3 0 0 # mount -o remount,size=200M nodev /tmp/x # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=204800k,mpol=??? 0 0 # note ? garbage in mpol=... output above # dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/x/f count=1 # panic here Panic: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [< (null)>] (null) [...] Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Call Trace: mpol_shared_policy_init+0xa5/0x160 shmem_get_inode+0x209/0x270 shmem_mknod+0x3e/0xf0 shmem_create+0x18/0x20 vfs_create+0xb5/0x130 do_last+0x9a1/0xea0 path_openat+0xb3/0x4d0 do_filp_open+0x42/0xa0 do_sys_open+0xfe/0x1e0 compat_sys_open+0x1b/0x20 cstar_dispatch+0x7/0x1f Non-debug kernels will not crash immediately because referencing the dangling mpol will not cause a fault. Instead the filesystem will reference a freed mempolicy object, which will cause unpredictable behavior. The problem boils down to a dropped mpol reference below if shmem_parse_options() does not allocate a new mpol: config = *sbinfo shmem_parse_options(data, &config, true) mpol_put(sbinfo->mpol) sbinfo->mpol = config.mpol /* BUG: saves unreferenced mpol */ This patch avoids the crash by not releasing the mempolicy if shmem_parse_options() doesn't create a new mpol. How far back does this issue go? I see it in both 2.6.36 and 3.3. I did not look back further. Signed-off-by:

commit 676a0675 upstream. Running the command: inotifywait -e unmount /mnt/disk immediately aborts with a -EINVAL return code. This is however a valid parameter. This abort occurs only if unmount is the sole event parameter. If other event parameters are supplied, then the unmount event wait will work. The problem was introduced by commit 44b350fc ("inotify: Fix mask checks"). In that commit, it states: The mask checks in inotify_update_existing_watch() and inotify_new_watch() are useless because inotify_arg_to_mask() sets FS_IN_IGNORED and FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD bits anyway. But instead of removing the useless checks, it did this: mask = inotify_arg_to_mask(arg); - if (unlikely(!mask)) + if (unlikely(!(mask & IN_ALL_EVENTS))) return -EINVAL; The problem is that IN_ALL_EVENTS doesn't include IN_UNMOUNT, and other parts of the code keep IN_UNMOUNT separate from IN_ALL_EVENTS. So the check should be: if (unlikely(!(mask & (IN_ALL_EVENTS | IN_UNMOUNT)))) But inotify_arg_to_mask(arg) always sets the IN_UNMOUNT bit in the mask anyway, so the check is always going to pass and thus should simply be removed. Also note that inotify_arg_to_mask completely controls what mask bits get set from arg, there's no way for invalid bits to get enabled there. Lets fix it by simply removing the useless broken checks.

commit 15bc8d84 upstream. On store status we need to copy the current state of registers into a save area. Currently we might save stale versions: The sie state descriptor doesnt have fields for guest ACRS,FPRS, those registers are simply stored in the host registers. The host program must copy these away if needed. We do that in vcpu_put/load. If we now do a store status in KVM code between vcpu_put/load, the saved values are not up-to-date. Lets collect the ACRS/FPRS before saving them. This also fixes some strange problems with hotplug and virtio-ccw, since the low level machine check handler (on hotplug a machine check will happen) will revalidate all registers with the content of the save area.

commit 55c171a6 upstream. Running under a kvm host does not necessarily imply the presence of a page mapped above the main memory with the virtio information; however, the code includes a hard coded access to that page. Instead, check for the presence of the page and exit gracefully before we hit an addressing exception if it does not exist. Reviewed-by:

commit 751efd86 upstream. There is a race condition between mmu_notifier_unregister() and __mmu_notifier_release(). Assume two tasks, one calling mmu_notifier_unregister() as a result of a filp_close() ->flush() callout (task A), and the other calling mmu_notifier_release() from an mmput() (task B). A B t1 srcu_read_lock() t2 if (!hlist_unhashed()) t3 srcu_read_unlock() t4 srcu_read_lock() t5 hlist_del_init_rcu() t6 synchronize_srcu() t7 srcu_read_unlock() t8 hlist_del_rcu() <--- NULL pointer deref. Additionally, the list traversal in __mmu_notifier_release() is not protected by the by the mmu_notifier_mm->hlist_lock which can result in callouts to the ->release() notifier from both mmu_notifier_unregister() and __mmu_notifier_release(). -stable suggestions: The stable trees prior to 3.7.y need commits 21a92735 and 70400303 cherry-picked in that order prior to cherry-picking this commit. The 3.7.y tree already has those two commits. Signed-off-by:

commit 21a92735 upstream. With an RCU based mmu_notifier implementation, any callout to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_{start,end}() or mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() would not be allowed to call schedule() as that could potentially allow a modification to the mmu_notifier structure while it is currently being used. Since srcu allocs 4 machine words per instance per cpu, we may end up with memory exhaustion if we use srcu per mm. So all mms share a global srcu. Note that during large mmu_notifier activity exit & unregister paths might hang for longer periods, but it is tolerable for current mmu_notifier clients. Signed-off-by:
