      net: igmp: add a missing rcu locking section · ce43c07f
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      
[ Upstream commit e7aadb27 ]

Newly added igmpv3_get_srcaddr() needs to be called under rcu lock.

Timer callbacks do not ensure this locking.

      ip6mr: fix stale iterator · 7d3d60ef
      Nikolay Aleksandrov authored 
      
[ Upstream commit 4adfa79f ]

When we dump the ip6mr mfc entries via proc, we initialize an iterator
with the table to dump but we don't clear the cache pointer which might
be initialized from a prior read on the same descriptor that ended. This
can result in lock imbalance (an unnecessary unlock) leading to other
crashes and hangs. Clear the cache pointer like ipmr does to fix the issue.
Thanks for the reliable reproducer.

Here's syzbot's trace:

      serial: core: mark port as initialized after successful IRQ change · ffcf167d
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored 
      commit 44117a1d upstream.

setserial changes the IRQ via uart_set_info(). It invokes
uart_shutdown() which free the current used IRQ and clear
TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED. It will then update the IRQ number and invoke
uart_startup() before returning to the caller leaving
TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED cleared.

The next open will crash with
|  list_add double add: new=ffffffff839fcc98, prev=ffffffff839fcc98, next=ffffffff839fcc98.
since the close from the IOCTL won't free the IRQ (and clean the list)
due to the TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED check in uart_shutdown().

There is same pattern in uart_do_autoconfig() and I *think* it also
needs to set TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED there.
Is there a reason why uart_startup() does not set the flag by itself
after the IRQ has been acquired (since it is cleared in uart_shutdown)?

      kaiser: allocate pgd with order 0 when pti=off · 400d3c8b
      Hugh Dickins authored 
      The 4.9.77 version of "x86/pti/efi: broken conversion from efi to kernel
page table" looked nicer than the 4.4.112 version, but was suboptimal on
machines booted with "pti=off" (or on AMD machines): it allocated pgd
with an order 1 page whatever the setting of kaiser_enabled.

Fix that by moving the definition of PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER from
asm/pgalloc.h to asm/pgtable.h, which already defines kaiser_enabled.

      x86/pti: Make unpoison of pgd for trusted boot work for real · ae1fc8de
      Dave Hansen authored 
      commit 445b69e3 upstream

The inital fix for trusted boot and PTI potentially misses the pgd clearing
if pud_alloc() sets a PGD.  It probably works in *practice* because for two
adjacent calls to map_tboot_page() that share a PGD entry, the first will
clear NX, *then* allocate and set the PGD (without NX clear).  The second
call will *not* allocate but will clear the NX bit.

Defer the NX clearing to a point after it is known that all top-level
allocations have occurred.  Add a comment to clarify why.

[ tglx: Massaged changelog ]

[ hughd notes: I have not tested tboot, but this looks to me as necessary
and as safe in old-Kaiser backports as it is upstream; I'm not submitting
the commit-to-be-fixed 262b6b30, since it was undone by 445b69e3,
and makes conflict trouble because of 5-level's p4d versus 4-level's pgd.]

      kaiser: fix intel_bts perf crashes · 0a61cd6c
      Hugh Dickins authored 
      Vince reported perf_fuzzer quickly locks up on 4.15-rc7 with PTI;
Robert reported Bad RIP with KPTI and Intel BTS also on 4.15-rc7:
honggfuzz -f /tmp/somedirectorywithatleastonefile \
          --linux_perf_bts_edge -s -- /bin/true
(honggfuzz from https://github.com/google/honggfuzz) crashed with
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff9d3215100000
(then narrowed it down to
perf record --per-thread -e intel_bts//u -- /bin/ls).

The intel_bts driver does not use the 'normal' BTS buffer which is
exposed through kaiser_add_mapping(), but instead uses the memory
allocated for the perf AUX buffer.

This obviously comes apart when using PTI, because then the kernel
mapping, which includes that AUX buffer memory, disappears while
switched to user page tables.

Easily fixed in old-Kaiser backports, by applying kaiser_add_mapping()
to those pages; perhaps not so easy for upstream, where 4.15-rc8 commit
99a9dc98 ("x86,perf: Disable intel_bts when PTI") disables for now.

Slightly reorganized surrounding code in bts_buffer_setup_aux(),
so it can better match bts_buffer_free_aux(): free_aux with an #ifdef
to avoid the loop when PTI is off, but setup_aux needs to loop anyway
(and kaiser_add_mapping() is cheap when PTI config is off or "pti=off").

      powerpc/64s: Wire up cpu_show_meltdown() · 1f0c936f
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      commit fd6e440f upstream.

The recent commit 87590ce6 ("sysfs/cpu: Add vulnerability folder")
added a generic folder and set of files for reporting information on
CPU vulnerabilities. One of those was for meltdown:

  /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown

This commit wires up that file for 64-bit Book3S powerpc.

For now we default to "Vulnerable" unless the RFI flush is enabled.
That may not actually be true on all hardware, further patches will
refine the reporting based on the CPU/platform etc. But for now we
default to being pessimists.

      powerpc/64s: Support disabling RFI flush with no_rfi_flush and nopti · 0ef9f828
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      commit bc9c9304 upstream.

Because there may be some performance overhead of the RFI flush, add
kernel command line options to disable it.

We add a sensibly named 'no_rfi_flush' option, but we also hijack the
x86 option 'nopti'. The RFI flush is not the same as KPTI, but if we
see 'nopti' we can guess that the user is trying to avoid any overhead
of Meltdown mitigations, and it means we don't have to educate every

      powerpc/64s: Add support for RFI flush of L1-D cache · c3b82ebe
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      commit aa8a5e00 upstream.

On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the
L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to
guest.

This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At
this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs
such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale
CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other
mechanisms on those CPUs.

The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally
inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is
speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the
address of a subsequent speculatively executed load.

In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1,
because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is
performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the
vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by
flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for
hypervisor vs guest.

In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at
each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and
patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise
to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D.
If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement
flush in software.

For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and
different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are
prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction
activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at
boot if the hypervisor tells us to.

In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and
Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis
of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc.
Many thanks to all of them.

      powerpc/64s: Convert slb_miss_common to use RFI_TO_USER/KERNEL · 48cc95d4
      Nicholas Piggin authored 
      commit c7305645 upstream.

In the SLB miss handler we may be returning to user or kernel. We need
to add a check early on and save the result in the cr4 register, and
then we bifurcate the return path based on that.

      powerpc/64: Convert the syscall exit path to use RFI_TO_USER/KERNEL · 00e40620
      Nicholas Piggin authored 
      commit b8e90cb7 upstream.

In the syscall exit path we may be returning to user or kernel
context. We already have a test for that, because we conditionally
restore r13. So use that existing test and branch, and bifurcate the
return based on that.

Similar to the syscall return path, in fast_exception_return we may be

because we conditionally restore r13. So use that existing test and
branch, and bifurcate the return based on that.

      powerpc/64: Add macros for annotating the destination of rfid/hrfid · 8fd3f98d
      Nicholas Piggin authored 
      commit 50e51c13 upstream.

The rfid/hrfid ((Hypervisor) Return From Interrupt) instruction is
used for switching from the kernel to userspace, and from the
hypervisor to the guest kernel. However it can and is also used for
other transitions, eg. from real mode kernel code to virtual mode
kernel code, and it's not always clear from the code what the
destination context is.

To make it clearer when reading the code, add macros which encode the
expected destination context.
