commit b81273a1 upstream. Now that login from util-linux is forced to drop all references to a TTY which it wants to hangup (to reach reference count 1) we are seeing issues with telnet. When login closes its last reference to the slave PTY, it also resets packet mode on the *master* side. And we have a race here. What telnet does is fork+exec of `login'. Then there are two scenarios: * `login' closes the slave TTY and resets thus master's packet mode, but even now telnet properly sets the mode, or * `telnetd' sets packet mode on the master, `login' closes the slave TTY and resets master's packet mode. The former case is OK. However the latter happens in much more cases, by the order of magnitude to be precise. So when one tries to login to such a messed telnet setup, they see the following: inux login: ogin incorrect Note the missing first letters -- telnet thinks it is still in the packet mode, so when it receives "linux login" from `login', it considers "l" as the type of the packet and strips it. SuS does not mention how the implementation should behave. Both BSDs I checked (Free and Net) do not reset the flag upon the last close. By this I am resurrecting an old bug, see References. We are hitting it regularly now, i.e. with updated util-linux, ergo login. Here, I am changing a behavior introduced back in 2.1 times. It would better have a long time testing before goes upstream.

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 bc178622 upstream. Doing this would reliably fail with -EBUSY for me: # mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/scratch; umount /mnt/scratch; mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb2 ... unable to open /dev/sdb2: Device or resource busy because mkfs.btrfs tries to open the device O_EXCL, and somebody still has it. Using systemtap to track bdev gets & puts shows a kworker thread doing a blkdev put after mkfs attempts a get; this is left over from the unmount path: btrfs_close_devices __btrfs_close_devices call_rcu(&device->rcu, free_device); free_device INIT_WORK(&device->rcu_work, __free_device); schedule_work(&device->rcu_work); so unmount might complete before __free_device fires & does its blkdev_put. Adding an rcu_barrier() to btrfs_close_devices() causes unmount to wait until all blkdev_put()s are done, and the device is truly free once unmount completes. Signed-off-by:

commit b1a66504 upstream. When loopdev is built as module and we pass an invalid parameter, loop_init() will return directly without deregister misc device, which will cause an oops when insert loop module next time because we left some garbage in the misc device list. Test case: sudo modprobe loop max_part=1024 (failed due to invalid parameter) sudo modprobe loop (oops) Clean up nicely to avoid such oops. Signed-off-by:

commit 5370019d upstream. bd_mutex and lo_ctl_mutex can be held in different order. Path #1: blkdev_open blkdev_get __blkdev_get (hold bd_mutex) lo_open (hold lo_ctl_mutex) Path #2: blkdev_ioctl lo_ioctl (hold lo_ctl_mutex) lo_set_capacity (hold bd_mutex) Lockdep does not report it, because path #2 actually holds a subclass of lo_ctl_mutex. This subclass seems creep into the code by mistake. The patch author actually just mentioned it in the changelog, see commit f028f3b2 ("loop: fix circular locking in loop_clr_fd()"), also see: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123806169129727&w=2 Path #2 hold bd_mutex to call bd_set_size(), I've protected it with i_mutex in a previous patch, so drop bd_mutex at this site.

commit 08e34eb1 upstream. After a guest is live migrated, the xen-netfront driver emits a gratuitous ARP message, so that networking hardware on the target host's subnet can take notice, and public routing to the guest is re-established. However, if the packet appears on the backend interface before the backend is added to the target host's bridge, the packet is lost, and the migrated guest's peers become unable to talk to the guest. A sufficient two-parts condition to prevent the above is: (1) ensure that the backend only moves to Connected xenbus state after its hotplug scripts completed, ie. the netback interface got added to the bridge; and (2) ensure the frontend only queues the gARP when it sees the backend move to Connected. These two together provide complete ordering. Sub-condition (1) is already satisfied by commit f942dc25 in Linus' tree, based on commit 6b0b80ca7165 from [1]. In general, the full condition is sufficient, not necessary, because, according to [2], live migration has been working for a long time without satisfying sub-condition (2). However, after 6b0b80ca7165 was backported to the RHEL-5 host to ensure (1), (2) still proved necessary in the RHEL-6 guest. This patch intends to provide (2) for upstream.

commit 08dff7b7 upstream. When online_pages() is called to add new memory to an empty zone, it rebuilds all zone lists by calling build_all_zonelists(). But there's a bug which prevents the new zone to be added to other nodes' zone lists. online_pages() { build_all_zonelists() ..... node_set_state(zone_to_nid(zone), N_HIGH_MEMORY) } Here the node of the zone is put into N_HIGH_MEMORY state after calling build_all_zonelists(), but build_all_zonelists() only adds zones from nodes in N_HIGH_MEMORY state to the fallback zone lists. build_all_zonelists() ->__build_all_zonelists() ->build_zonelists() ->find_next_best_node() ->for_each_node_state(n, N_HIGH_MEMORY) So memory in the new zone will never be used by other nodes, and it may cause strange behavor when system is under memory pressure. So put node into N_HIGH_MEMORY state before calling build_all_zonelists(). Signed-off-by:

commit d3b9d7a9 upstream. A USB 3.0 device can transition to the Inactive state if a U1 or U2 exit transition fails. The current code in hub_events simply issues a warm reset, but does not call any pre-reset or post-reset driver methods (or unbind/rebind drivers without them). Therefore the drivers won't know their device has just been reset. hub_events should instead call usb_reset_device. This means hub_port_reset now needs to figure out whether it should issue a warm reset or a hot reset. Remove the FIXME note about needing disconnect() for a NOTATTACHED device. This patch fixes that. Signed-off-by:

commit a24a6078 upstream. When a hot reset fails on a USB 3.0 port, the current port reset code recursively calls hub_port_reset inside hub_port_wait_reset. This isn't ideal, since we should avoid recursive calls in the kernel, and it also doesn't allow us to issue multiple warm resets on reset failures. Rip out the recursive call. Instead, add code to hub_port_reset to issue a warm reset if the hot reset fails, and try multiple warm resets before giving up on the port. In hub_port_wait_reset, remove the recursive call and re-indent. The code is basically the same, except: 1. It bails out early if the port has transitioned to Inactive or Compliance Mode after the reset completed. 2. It doesn't consider a connect status change to be a failed reset. If multiple warm resets needed to be issued, the connect status may have changed, so we need to ignore that and look at the port link state instead. hub_port_reset will now do that. 3. It unconditionally sets udev->speed on all types of successful resets. The old recursive code would set the port speed when the second hub_port_reset returned. The old code did not handle connected devices needing a warm reset well. There were only two situations that the old code handled correctly: an empty port needing a warm reset, and a hot reset that migrated to a warm reset. When an empty port needed a warm reset, hub_port_reset was called with the warm variable set. The code in hub_port_finish_reset would skip telling the USB core and the xHC host that the device was reset, because otherwise that would result in a NULL pointer dereference. When a USB 3.0 device reset migrated to a warm reset, the recursive call made the call stack look like this: hub_port_reset(warm = false) hub_wait_port_reset(warm = false) hub_port_reset(warm = true) hub_wait_port_reset(warm = true) hub_port_finish_reset(warm = true) (return up the call stack to the first wait) hub_port_finish_reset(warm = false) The old code didn't want to notify the USB core or the xHC host of device reset twice, so it only did it in the second call to hub_port_finish_reset, when warm was set to false. This was necessary because before patch two ("USB: Ignore xHCI Reset Device status."), the USB core would pay attention to the xHC Reset Device command error status, and the second call would always fail. Now that we no longer have the recursive call, and warm can change from false to true in hub_port_reset, we need to have hub_port_finish_reset unconditionally notify the USB core and the xHC of the device reset. In hub_port_finish_reset, unconditionally clear the connect status change (CSC) bit for USB 3.0 hubs when the port reset is done. If we had to issue multiple warm resets for a device, that bit may have been set if the device went into SS.Inactive and then was successfully warm reset. Signed-off-by:

commit 2d4fa940 upstream. The next patch will refactor the hub port code to rip out the recursive call to hub_port_reset on a failed hot reset. In preparation for that, make sure all code paths can deal with being called with a NULL udev. The usb_device will not be valid if warm reset was issued because a port transitioned to the Inactive or Compliance Mode on a device connect. This patch should have no effect on current behavior.

commit 0fe51aa5 upstream. The EHCI host controller needs to prevent EHCI initialization when the UHCI or OHCI companion controller is in the middle of a port reset. It uses ehci_cf_port_reset_rwsem to do this. USB 3.0 hubs can't be under an EHCI host controller, so it makes no sense to down the semaphore for USB 3.0 hubs. It also makes the warm port reset code more complex. Don't down ehci_cf_port_reset_rwsem for USB 3.0 hubs. Signed-off-by:

commit 8aec0f5d upstream. Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an explicit "access_ok()" check before calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev(). This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact, there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel, and they both seem to get it wrong: Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb() also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to be missing. Same situation for security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov(). I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it, and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat. While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values. And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error handling. Acked-by:

commit 9a5467bf upstream. Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure: 1/ The structures used for the netlink based crypto algorithm report API are located on the stack. As snprintf() does not fill the remainder of the buffer with null bytes, those stack bytes will be disclosed to users of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this. 2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak. 3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME. Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and driver_name. They are strings, after all. Signed-off-by:

commit 2ca39528 upstream. When the new signal handlers are set up, the location of sa_restorer is not cleared, leaking a parent process's address space location to children. This allows for a potential bypass of the parent's ASLR by examining the sa_restorer value returned when calling sigaction(). Based on what should be considered "secret" about addresses, it only matters across the exec not the fork (since the VMAs haven't changed until the exec). But since exec sets SIG_DFL and keeps sa_restorer, this is where it should be fixed. Given the few uses of sa_restorer, a "set" function was not written since this would be the only use. Instead, we use __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER, as already done in other places. Example of the leak before applying this patch: $ cat /proc/$$/maps ... 7fb9f3083000-7fb9f3238000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 404469 .../libc-2.15.so ... $ ./leak ... 7f278bc74000-7f278be29000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 404469 .../libc-2.15.so ... 1 0 (nil) 0x7fb9f30b94a0 2 4000000 (nil) 0x7f278bcaa4a0 3 4000000 (nil) 0x7f278bcaa4a0 4 0 (nil) 0x7fb9f30b94a0 ...

After applying a patch, I've been testing owfs+w1 setup for nearly two days and it seems to work very reliable (no hangs, no memleaks etc). More detailed description and possible fix is given below: Function w1_search can be called from either kthread or netlink callback. While the former works fine, the latter causes oops due to kthread_should_stop invocation. This patch adds a check if w1_search is serving netlink command, skipping kthread_should_stop invocation if so. Signed-off-by:

I've managed to find an 8 port version of the card 4 port card which was discussed here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-serial&m=120760744205314&w=2 Looking back at that thread there were two issues in the original patch. 1) The I/O ports for the UARTs are within BAR2 not BAR0. This can been seen in the original post. 2) A serial quirk isn't needed as these cards have no memory in BAR0 which makes pci_plx9050_init just return. This patch fixes the 4 port support to use BAR2, removes the bogus quirk and adds support for the 8 port card. $ lspci -vvv -n -s 00:08.0 00:08.0 0780: 10b5:9050 (rev 01) Subsystem: 10b5:1588 Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 17 Region 1: I/O ports at ff00 [size=128] Region 2: I/O ports at fe00 [size=64] Region 3: I/O ports at fd00 [size=8] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: serial $ dmesg | grep 0000:00:08.0: [ 0.083320] pci 0000:00:08.0: [10b5:9050] type 0 class 0x000780 [ 0.083355] pci 0000:00:08.0: reg 14: [io 0xff00-0xff7f] [ 0.083369] pci 0000:00:08.0: reg 18: [io 0xfe00-0xfe3f] [ 0.083382] pci 0000:00:08.0: reg 1c: [io 0xfd00-0xfd07] [ 0.083460] pci 0000:00:08.0: PME# supported from D0 D3hot [ 1.212867] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS4 at I/O 0xfe00 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.233073] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS5 at I/O 0xfe08 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.253270] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS6 at I/O 0xfe10 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.273468] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS7 at I/O 0xfe18 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.293666] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS8 at I/O 0xfe20 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.313863] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS9 at I/O 0xfe28 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.334061] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS10 at I/O 0xfe30 (irq = 17) is a 16550A [ 1.354258] 0000:00:08.0: ttyS11 at I/O 0xfe38 (irq = 17) is a 16550A Signed-off-by:

commit 0da9dfdd upstream. This fixes CVE-2013-1792. There is a race in install_user_keyrings() that can cause a NULL pointer dereference when called concurrently for the same user if the uid and uid-session keyrings are not yet created. It might be possible for an unprivileged user to trigger this by calling keyctl() from userspace in parallel immediately after logging in. Assume that we have two threads both executing lookup_user_key(), both looking for KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING. THREAD A THREAD B =============================== =============================== ==>call install_user_keyrings(); if (!cred->user->session_keyring) ==>call install_user_keyrings() ... user->uid_keyring = uid_keyring; if (user->uid_keyring) return 0; <== key = cred->user->session_keyring [== NULL] user->session_keyring = session_keyring; atomic_inc(&key->usage); [oops] At the point thread A dereferences cred->user->session_keyring, thread B hasn't updated user->session_keyring yet, but thread A assumes it is populated because install_user_keyrings() returned ok. The race window is really small but can be exploited if, for example, thread B is interrupted or preempted after initializing uid_keyring, but before doing setting session_keyring. This couldn't be reproduced on a stock kernel. However, after placing systemtap probe on 'user->session_keyring = session_keyring;' that introduced some delay, the kernel could be crashed reliably. Fix this by checking both pointers before deciding whether to return. Alternatively, the test could be done away with entirely as it is checked inside the mutex - but since the mutex is global, that may not be the best way. Signed-off-by:

commit 8d0c2d10 upstream. ext3_msg() takes the printk prefix as the second parameter and the format string as the third parameter. Two callers of ext3_msg omit the prefix and pass the format string as the second parameter and the first parameter to the format string as the third parameter. In both cases this string comes from an arbitrary source. Which means the string may contain format string characters, which will lead to undefined and potentially harmful behavior. The issue was introduced in commit 4cf46b67("ext3: Unify log messages in ext3") and is fixed by this patch. Signed-off-by:

commit ab4b7164 upstream. This reverts commit 200e0d99 ("USB: storage: optimize to match the Huawei USB storage devices and support new switch command" and the followup bugfix commit cd060956 ("USB: storage: properly handle the endian issues of idProduct"). The commit effectively added a large number of Huawei devices to the deprecated usb-storage mode switching logic. Many of these devices have been in use and supported by the userspace usb_modeswitch utility for years. Forcing the switching inside the kernel causes a number of regressions as a result of ignoring existing onfigurations, and also completely takes away the ability to configure mode switching per device/system/user. Known regressions caused by this: - Some of the devices support multiple modes, using different switching commands. There are existing configurations taking advantage of this. - There is a real use case for disabling mode switching and instead mounting the exposed storage device. This becomes impossible with switching logic inside the usb-storage driver. - At least on device fail as a result of the usb-storage switching command, becoming completely unswitchable. This is possibly a firmware bug, but still a regression because the device work as expected using usb_modeswitch defaults. In-kernel mode switching was deprecated years ago with the development of the more user friendly userspace alternatives. The existing list of devices in usb-storage was only kept to prevent breaking already working systems. The long term plan is to remove the list, not to add to it.

commit a930d879 upstream. If you open a pipe for neither read nor write, the pipe code will not add any usage counters to the pipe, causing the 'struct pipe_inode_info" to be potentially released early. That doesn't normally matter, since you cannot actually use the pipe, but the pipe release code - particularly fasync handling - still expects the actual pipe infrastructure to all be there. And rather than adding NULL pointer checks, let's just disallow this case, the same way we already do for the named pipe ("fifo") case. This is ancient going back to pre-2.4 days, and until trinity, nobody naver noticed. Reported-by:
