commit 39e60635 upstream. DWC3 gadget sets up a pool of 32 TRBs for each EP during initialization. This means, the max TRBs that can be submitted for an EP is fixed to 32. Since the request queue for an EP is a linked list, any number of requests can be queued to it by the gadget layer. However, the dwc3 driver must not submit TRBs more than the pool it has created for. This limit wasn't respected when SG was used resulting in submitting more than the max TRBs, eventually leading to non-transfer of the TRBs submitted over the max limit. Root cause: When SG is used, there are two loops iterating to prepare TRBs: - Outer loop over the request_list - Inner loop over the SG list The code was missing break to get out of the outer loop.

commit b800c91a upstream. Fix for BUG_ON(anon_vma->degree) splashes in unlink_anon_vmas() ("kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!") caused by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy") Anon_vma_clone() is usually called for a copy of source vma in destination argument. If source vma has anon_vma it should be already in dst->anon_vma. NULL in dst->anon_vma is used as a sign that it's called from anon_vma_fork(). In this case anon_vma_clone() finds anon_vma for reusing. Vma_adjust() calls it differently and this breaks anon_vma reusing logic: anon_vma_clone() links vma to old anon_vma and updates degree counters but vma_adjust() overrides vma->anon_vma right after that. As a result final unlink_anon_vmas() decrements degree for wrong anon_vma. This patch assigns ->anon_vma before calling anon_vma_clone(). Signed-off-by:

commit 690eac53 upstream. Commit fee7e49d ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page") made sure that we return the error properly for stack growth conditions. It also theorized that counting the guard page towards the stack limit might break something, but also said "Let's see if anybody notices". Somebody did notice. Apparently android-x86 sets the stack limit very close to the limit indeed, and including the guard page in the rlimit check causes the android 'zygote' process problems. So this adds the (fairly trivial) code to make the stack rlimit check be against the actual real stack size, rather than the size of the vma that includes the guard page. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 56abcab8 upstream. Commit 8dccddbc ("OHCI: final fix for NVIDIA problems (I hope)") introduced into 3.1.9 broke boot on e.g. Freescale P2020DS development board. The code path that was previously specific to NVIDIA controllers had then become taken for all chips. However, the M5237 installed on the board wedges solid when accessing its base+OHCI_FMINTERVAL register, making it impossible to boot any kernel newer than 3.1.8 on this particular and apparently other similar machines. Don't readl() and writel() base+OHCI_FMINTERVAL on PCI ID 10b9:5237. The patch is suitable for the -next tree as well as all maintained kernels up to 3.2 inclusive. Signed-off-by:

commit 2d6d7f98 upstream. Tejun, while reviewing the code, spotted the following race condition between the dirtying and truncation of a page: __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() __delete_from_page_cache() if (TestSetPageDirty(page)) page->mapping = NULL if (PageDirty()) dec_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY); dec_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE); if (page->mapping) account_page_dirtied(page) __inc_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY); __inc_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE); which results in an imbalance of NR_FILE_DIRTY and BDI_RECLAIMABLE. Dirtiers usually lock out truncation, either by holding the page lock directly, or in case of zap_pte_range(), by pinning the mapcount with the page table lock held. The notable exception to this rule, though, is do_wp_page(), for which this race exists. However, do_wp_page() already waits for a locked page to unlock before setting the dirty bit, in order to prevent a race where clear_page_dirty() misses the page bit in the presence of dirty ptes. Upgrade that wait to a fully locked set_page_dirty() to also cover the situation explained above. Afterwards, the code in set_page_dirty() dealing with a truncation race is no longer needed. Remove it. Reported-by:

commit 7a3ef208 upstream. Constantly forking task causes unlimited grow of anon_vma chain. Each next child allocates new level of anon_vmas and links vma to all previous levels because pages might be inherited from any level. This patch adds heuristic which decides to reuse existing anon_vma instead of forking new one. It adds counter anon_vma->degree which counts linked vmas and directly descending anon_vmas and reuses anon_vma if counter is lower than two. As a result each anon_vma has either vma or at least two descending anon_vmas. In such trees half of nodes are leafs with alive vmas, thus count of anon_vmas is no more than two times bigger than count of vmas. This heuristic reuses anon_vmas as few as possible because each reuse adds false aliasing among vmas and rmap walker ought to scan more ptes when it searches where page is might be mapped.

commit fee7e49d upstream. Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma that is reported by /proc/maps. This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done. And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit d7824370: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area. This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error. It also effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit. Let's see if anybody notices. We could teach acct_stack_growth() to allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test, but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 63bd62a0 upstream. A struct device which has just been unregistered can live on past the point at which a driver decides to drop it's initial reference to the kobject gained on allocation. This implies that when releasing a virtio device, we can't free a struct virtio_device until the underlying struct device has been released, which might not happen immediately on device_unregister(). Unfortunately, this is exactly what virtio pci does: it has an empty release callback, and frees memory immediately after unregistering the device. This causes an easy to reproduce crash if CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE it enabled. To fix, free the memory only once we know the device is gone in the release callback. Signed-off-by:

commit 92b004d1 upstream. If the probe of an fb driver has been deferred due to missing dependencies, and the probe is later ran when a module is loaded, the fbdev framework will try to find a logo to use. However, the logos are __initdata, and have already been freed. This causes sometimes page faults, if the logo memory is not mapped, sometimes other random crashes as the logo data is invalid, and sometimes nothing, if the fbdev decides to reject the logo (e.g. the random value depicting the logo's height is too big). This patch adds a late_initcall function to mark the logos as freed. In reality the logos are freed later, and fbdev probe may be ran between this late_initcall and the freeing of the logos. In that case we will miss drawing the logo, even if it would be possible. Signed-off-by:

commit 796f2da8 upstream. When vlan tags are stacked, it is very likely that the outer tag is stored in skb->vlan_tci and skb->protocol shows the inner tag's vlan_proto. Currently netif_skb_features() first looks at skb->protocol even if there is the outer tag in vlan_tci, thus it incorrectly retrieves the protocol encapsulated by the inner vlan instead of the inner vlan protocol. This allows GSO packets to be passed to HW and they end up being corrupted. Fixes: 58e998c6 ("offloading: Force software GSO for multiple vlan tags.") Signed-off-by:

commit 7e77bdeb upstream. If a request is backlogged, it's complete() handler will get called twice: once with -EINPROGRESS, and once with the final error code. af_alg's complete handler, unlike other users, does not handle the -EINPROGRESS but instead always completes the completion that recvmsg() is waiting on. This can lead to a return to user space while the request is still pending in the driver. If userspace closes the sockets before the requests are handled by the driver, this will lead to use-after-frees (and potential crashes) in the kernel due to the tfm having been freed. The crashes can be easily reproduced (for example) by reducing the max queue length in cryptod.c and running the following (from http://www.chronox.de/libkcapi.html) on AES-NI capable hardware: $ while true; do kcapi -x 1 -e -c '__ecb-aes-aesni' \ -k 00000000000000000000000000000000 \ -p 00000000000000000000000000000000 >/dev/null & done Signed-off-by:

commit 394f56fe upstream. The theory behind vdso randomization is that it's mapped at a random offset above the top of the stack. To avoid wasting a page of memory for an extra page table, the vdso isn't supposed to extend past the lowest PMD into which it can fit. Other than that, the address should be a uniformly distributed address that meets all of the alignment requirements. The current algorithm is buggy: the vdso has about a 50% probability of being at the very end of a PMD. The current algorithm also has a decent chance of failing outright due to incorrect handling of the case where the top of the stack is near the top of its PMD. This fixes the implementation. The paxtest estimate of vdso "randomisation" improves from 11 bits to 18 bits. (Disclaimer: I don't know what the paxtest code is actually calculating.) It's worth noting that this algorithm is inherently biased: the vdso is more likely to end up near the end of its PMD than near the beginning. Ideally we would either nix the PMD sharing requirement or jointly randomize the vdso and the stack to reduce the bias. In the mean time, this is a considerable improvement with basically no risk of compatibility issues, since the allowed outputs of the algorithm are unchanged. As an easy test, doing this: for i in `seq 10000` do grep -P vdso /proc/self/maps |cut -d- -f1 done |sort |uniq -d used to produce lots of output (1445 lines on my most recent run). A tiny subset looks like this: 7fffdfffe000 7fffe01fe000 7fffe05fe000 7fffe07fe000 7fffe09fe000 7fffe0bfe000 7fffe0dfe000 Note the suspicious fe000 endings. With the fix, I get a much more palatable 76 repeated addresses. Reviewed-by:

commit 136f49b9 upstream. For buffer write, page lock will be got in write_begin and released in write_end, in ocfs2_write_end_nolock(), before it unlock the page in ocfs2_free_write_ctxt(), it calls ocfs2_run_deallocs(), this will ask for the read lock of journal->j_trans_barrier. Holding page lock and ask for journal->j_trans_barrier breaks the locking order. This will cause a deadlock with journal commit threads, ocfs2cmt will get write lock of journal->j_trans_barrier first, then it wakes up kjournald2 to do the commit work, at last it waits until done. To commit journal, kjournald2 needs flushing data first, it needs get the cache page lock. Since some ocfs2 cluster locks are holding by write process, this deadlock may hung the whole cluster. unlock pages before ocfs2_run_deallocs() can fix the locking order, also put unlock before ocfs2_commit_trans() to make page lock is unlocked before j_trans_barrier to preserve unlocking order.

commit 6bf6ca75 upstream. This patch changes iscsit_do_tx_data() to fail on short writes when kernel_sendmsg() returns a value different than requested transfer length, returning -EPIPE and thus causing a connection reset to occur. This avoids a potential bug in the original code where a short write would result in kernel_sendmsg() being called again with the original iovec base + length. In practice this has not been an issue because iscsit_do_tx_data() is only used for transferring 48 byte headers + 4 byte digests, along with seldom used control payloads from NOPIN + TEXT_RSP + REJECT with less than 32k of data. So following Al's audit of iovec consumers, go ahead and fail the connection on short writes for now, and remove the bogus logic ahead of his proper upstream fix. Reported-by:

I've checked glibc, musl, and Wine, and none of them look like they'll have any trouble. Note to stable maintainers: this is a hardening patch that fixes no known bugs. Given the possibility of ABI issues, this probably shouldn't be backported quickly. Signed-off-by:

commit c291ee62 upstream. Since the rework of the sparse interrupt code to actually free the unused interrupt descriptors there exists a race between the /proc interfaces to the irq subsystem and the code which frees the interrupt descriptor. CPU0 CPU1 show_interrupts() desc = irq_to_desc(X); free_desc(desc) remove_from_radix_tree(); kfree(desc); raw_spinlock_irq(&desc->lock); /proc/interrupts is the only interface which can actively corrupt kernel memory via the lock access. /proc/stat can only read from freed memory. Extremly hard to trigger, but possible. The interfaces in /proc/irq/N/ are not affected by this because the removal of the proc file is serialized in procfs against concurrent readers/writers. The removal happens before the descriptor is freed. For architectures which have CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=n this is a non issue as the descriptor is never freed. It's merely cleared out with the irq descriptor lock held. So any concurrent proc access will either see the old correct value or the cleared out ones. Protect the lookup and access to the irq descriptor in show_interrupts() with the sparse_irq_lock. Provide kstat_irqs_usr() which is protecting the lookup and access with sparse_irq_lock and switch /proc/stat to use it. Document the existing kstat_irqs interfaces so it's clear that the caller needs to take care about protection. The users of these interfaces are either not affected due to SPARSE_IRQ=n or already protected against removal. Fixes: 1f5a5b87 "genirq: Implement a sane sparse_irq allocator" Signed-off-by:
