commit ddbe1fca upstream. This full-speed USB device generates spurious remote wakeup event as soon as USB_DEVICE_REMOTE_WAKEUP feature is set. As the result, Linux can't enter system suspend and S0ix power saving modes once this keyboard is used. This patch tries to introduce USB_QUIRK_IGNORE_REMOTE_WAKEUP quirk. With this quirk set, wakeup capability will be ignored during device configure. This patch could be back-ported to kernels as old as 2.6.39. Signed-off-by:

commit 89ec3dcf upstream. Some implementations of modprobe fail to load the driver for a PCI device automatically because the "interface" part of the modalias from the kernel is lowercase, and the modalias from file2alias is uppercase. The "interface" is the low-order byte of the Class Code, defined in PCI r3.0, Appendix D. Most interface types defined in the spec do not use alpha characters, so they won't be affected. For example, 00h, 01h, 10h, 20h, etc. are unaffected. Print the "interface" byte of the Class Code in uppercase hex, as we already do for the Vendor ID, Device ID, Class, etc. [bhelgaas: changelog] Signed-off-by:

commit bb2e226b upstream. This reverts commit 3189eddb ("percpu: free percpu allocation info for uniprocessor system"). The commit causes a hang with a crisv32 image. This may be an architecture problem, but at least for now the revert is necessary to be able to boot a crisv32 image.

commit 5eb596f5 upstream. We can only determine the final security level when both pairing request and response have been exchanged. When initiating pairing the starting target security level is set to MEDIUM unless explicitly specified to be HIGH, so that we can still perform pairing even if the remote doesn't have MITM capabilities. However, once we've received the pairing response we should re-consult the remote and local IO capabilities and upgrade the target security level if necessary. Without this patch the resulting Long Term Key will occasionally be reported to be unauthenticated when it in reality is an authenticated one. Signed-off-by:

commit 9fe373f9 upstream. The Crocodile chip occasionally comes up with 4k and 8k BAR sizes. Due to an erratum, setting the SR-IOV page size causes the physical function BARs to expand to the system page size. Since ppc64 uses 64k pages, when Linux tries to assign the smaller resource sizes to the now 64k BARs the address will be truncated and the BARs will overlap. Force Linux to allocate the resource as a full page, which avoids the overlap. [bhelgaas: print expanded resource, too] Signed-off-by:

commit bceee4a9 upstream. pciehp assumes that dev->subordinate, the struct pci_bus for a bridge's secondary bus, exists. But we do not create that bus if we run out of bus numbers during enumeration. This leads to a NULL dereference in init_slot() (and other places). Change pciehp_probe() to return -ENODEV when no secondary bus is present. Signed-off-by:

commit ba29e721 upstream. Hu (hujianyang <hujianyang@huawei.com>) discovered an issue in the 'empty_log_bytes()' function, which calculates how many bytes are left in the log: " If 'c->lhead_lnum + 1 == c->ltail_lnum' and 'c->lhead_offs == c->leb_size', 'h' would equalent to 't' and 'empty_log_bytes()' would return 'c->log_bytes' instead of 0. " At this point it is not clear what would be the consequences of this, and whether this may lead to any problems, but this patch addresses the issue just in case. Tested-by:

commit 052c2807 upstream. Hu (hujianyang@huawei.com) discovered a race condition which may lead to a situation when UBIFS is unable to mount the file-system after an unclean reboot. The problem is theoretical, though. In UBIFS, we have the log, which basically a set of LEBs in a certain area. The log has the tail and the head. Every time user writes data to the file-system, the UBIFS journal grows, and the log grows as well, because we append new reference nodes to the head of the log. So the head moves forward all the time, while the log tail stays at the same position. At any time, the UBIFS master node points to the tail of the log. When we mount the file-system, we scan the log, and we always start from its tail, because this is where the master node points to. The only occasion when the tail of the log changes is the commit operation. The commit operation has 2 phases - "commit start" and "commit end". The former is relatively short, and does not involve much I/O. During this phase we mostly just build various in-memory lists of the things which have to be written to the flash media during "commit end" phase. During the commit start phase, what we do is we "clean" the log. Indeed, the commit operation will index all the data in the journal, so the entire journal "disappears", and therefore the data in the log become unneeded. So we just move the head of the log to the next LEB, and write the CS node there. This LEB will be the tail of the new log when the commit operation finishes. When the "commit start" phase finishes, users may write more data to the file-system, in parallel with the ongoing "commit end" operation. At this point the log tail was not changed yet, it is the same as it had been before we started the commit. The log head keeps moving forward, though. The commit operation now needs to write the new master node, and the new master node should point to the new log tail. After this the LEBs between the old log tail and the new log tail can be unmapped and re-used again. And here is the possible problem. We do 2 operations: (a) We first update the log tail position in memory (see 'ubifs_log_end_commit()'). (b) And then we write the master node (see the big lock of code in 'do_commit()'). But nothing prevents the log head from moving forward between (a) and (b), and the log head may "wrap" now to the old log tail. And when the "wrap" happens, the contends of the log tail gets erased. Now a power cut happens and we are in trouble. We end up with the old master node pointing to the old tail, which was erased. And replay fails because it expects the master node to point to the correct log tail at all times. This patch merges the abovementioned (a) and (b) operations by moving the master node change code to the 'ubifs_log_end_commit()' function, so that it runs with the log mutex locked, which will prevent the log from being changed benween operations (a) and (b).

commit 07e19dff upstream. The 'mst_mutex' is not needed since because 'ubifs_write_master()' is only called on the mount path and commit path. The mount path is sequential and there is no parallelism, and the commit path is also serialized - there is only one commit going on at a time. Signed-off-by:

commit 56f17dd3 upstream. The following events can lead to an incorrect KVM_EXIT_MMIO bubbling up to userspace: (1) Guest accesses gpa X without a memory slot. The gfn is cached in struct kvm_vcpu_arch (mmio_gfn). On Intel EPT-enabled hosts, KVM sets the SPTE write-execute-noread so that future accesses cause EPT_MISCONFIGs. (2) Host userspace creates a memory slot via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION covering the page just accessed. (3) Guest attempts to read or write to gpa X again. On Intel, this generates an EPT_MISCONFIG. The memory slot generation number that was incremented in (2) would normally take care of this but we fast path mmio faults through quickly_check_mmio_pf(), which only checks the per-vcpu mmio cache. Since we hit the cache, KVM passes a KVM_EXIT_MMIO up to userspace. This patch fixes the issue by using the memslot generation number to validate the mmio cache. Signed-off-by:

commit 93659763 upstream. The commit 4197aa7b implements 64 bit per ring statistics. But the driver resets the 'total_bytes' and 'total_packets' from RX and TX rings in the RX and TX interrupt handlers to zero. This results in statistics being lost and user space reporting RX and TX statistics as zero. This patch addresses the issue by preventing the resetting of RX and TX ring statistics to zero.

commit 916e4cf4 upstream. Currently we generate a new fragmentation id on UFO segmentation. It is pretty hairy to identify the correct net namespace and dst there. Especially tunnels use IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE and thus have no skb_dst available at all. This causes unreliable or very predictable ipv6 fragmentation id generation while segmentation. Luckily we already have pregenerated the ip6_frag_id in ip6_ufo_append_data and can use it here. Signed-off-by:

None of the changes to the rtlwifi family between 3.2.54 and 3.2.57 seem to directly cause this, and reverting commit f78bccd7 ('rtlwifi: rtl8192ce: Fix too long disable of IRQs') doesn't fix it. rtl92c_dm_watchdog() calls rtl92ce_update_hal_rate_tbl() via rtl92c_dm_refresh_rate_adaptive_mask(), which does not appear in the call trace as it was inlined. That function has been completely removed upstream which may explain why this crash wasn't seen there. I'm not sure that it is sensible to completely remove rtl92c_dm_refresh_rate_adaptive_mask() without making other compensating changes elsewhere, so try to work around this for 3.2 by checking for a null pointer in rtl92c_dm_refresh_rate_adaptive_mask() and then skipping the call to rtl92ce_update_hal_rate_tbl().

Further tests revealed that after moving the garbage collector to a work queue and protecting it with a spinlock may leave the system prone to soft lockups if bottom half gets very busy. It was reproced with a set of firewall rules that REJECTed packets. If the NIC bottom half handler ends up running on the same CPU that is running the garbage collector on a very large cache, the garbage collector will not be able to do its job due to the amount of work needed for handling the REJECTs and also won't reschedule. The fix is to disable bottom half during the garbage collecting, as it already was in the first place (most calls to it came from softirqs). Signed-off-by:

When rt_intern_hash() has to deal with neighbour cache overflowing, it triggers the route cache garbage collector in an attempt to free some references on neighbour entries. Such call cannot be done async but should also not run in parallel with an already-running one, so that they don't collapse fighting over the hash lock entries. This patch thus blocks parallel executions with spinlocks: - A call from worker and from rt_intern_hash() are not the same, and cannot be merged, thus they will wait each other on rt_gc_lock. - Calls to gc from rt_intern_hash() may happen in parallel but we must wait for it to finish in order to try again. This dedup and synchrinozation is then performed by the locking just before calling __do_rt_garbage_collect(). Signed-off-by:

Currently the route garbage collector gets called by dst_alloc() if it have more entries than the threshold. But it's an expensive call, that don't really need to be done by then. Another issue with current way is that it allows running the garbage collector with the same start parameters on multiple CPUs at once, which is not optimal. A system may even soft lockup if the cache is big enough as the garbage collectors will be fighting over the hash lock entries. This patch thus moves the garbage collector to run asynchronously on a work queue, much similar to how rt_expire_check runs. There is one condition left that allows multiple executions, which is handled by the next patch. Signed-off-by:

commit d555a2ab upstream. We unconditionally execute scsi_eh_get_sense() to make sure all failed commands that should have sense attached, do. However, the routine forgets that some commands, because of the way they fail, will not have any sense code ... we should not bother them with a REQUEST_SENSE command. Fix this by testing to see if we actually got a CHECK_CONDITION return and skip asking for sense if we don't. Tested-by:

commit d49ec52f upstream. The DM crypt target accesses memory beyond allocated space resulting in a crash on 32 bit x86 systems. This bug is very old (it dates back to 2.6.25 commit 3a7f6c99 "dm crypt: use async crypto"). However, this bug was masked by the fact that kmalloc rounds the size up to the next power of two. This bug wasn't exposed until 3.17-rc1 commit 298a9fa0 ("dm crypt: use per-bio data"). By switching to using per-bio data there was no longer any padding beyond the end of a dm-crypt allocated memory block. To minimize allocation overhead dm-crypt puts several structures into one block allocated with kmalloc. The block holds struct ablkcipher_request, cipher-specific scratch pad (crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(any_tfm(cc))), struct dm_crypt_request and an initialization vector. The variable dmreq_start is set to offset of struct dm_crypt_request within this memory block. dm-crypt allocates the block with this size: cc->dmreq_start + sizeof(struct dm_crypt_request) + cc->iv_size. When accessing the initialization vector, dm-crypt uses the function iv_of_dmreq, which performs this calculation: ALIGN((unsigned long)(dmreq + 1), crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) + 1). dm-crypt allocated "cc->iv_size" bytes beyond the end of dm_crypt_request structure. However, when dm-crypt accesses the initialization vector, it takes a pointer to the end of dm_crypt_request, aligns it, and then uses it as the initialization vector. If the end of dm_crypt_request is not aligned on a crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) boundary the alignment causes the initialization vector to point beyond the allocated space. Fix this bug by calculating the variable iv_size_padding and adding it to the allocated size. Also correct the alignment of dm_crypt_request. struct dm_crypt_request is specific to dm-crypt (it isn't used by the crypto subsystem at all), so it is aligned on __alignof__(struct dm_crypt_request). Also align per_bio_data_size on ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN, so that it is aligned as if the block was allocated with kmalloc. Reported-by:

commit a6138db8 upstream. Kenton Varda <kenton@sandstorm.io> discovered that by remounting a read-only bind mount read-only in a user namespace the MNT_LOCK_READONLY bit would be cleared, allowing an unprivileged user to the remount a read-only mount read-write. Correct this by replacing the mask of mount flags to preserve with a mask of mount flags that may be changed, and preserve all others. This ensures that any future bugs with this mask and remount will fail in an easy to detect way where new mount flags simply won't change. Acked-by:

commit b3f20785 upstream. When running a 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel (eg. i386 application on x86_64 kernel or 32-bit arm userspace on arm64 kernel) some of the perf ioctls must be treated with special care, as they have a pointer size encoded in the command. For example, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID in 32-bit world will be encoded as 0x80042407, but 64-bit kernel will expect 0x80082407. In result the ioctl will fail returning -ENOTTY. This patch solves the problem by adding code fixing up the size as compat_ioctl file operation. Reported-by:

commit 36de9286 upstream. If we run into some kind of error, such as ENOMEM, while calling ext4_getblk() or ext4_dx_find_entry(), we need to make sure this error gets propagated up to ext4_find_entry() and then to its callers. This way, transient errors such as ENOMEM can get propagated to the VFS. This is important so that the system calls return the appropriate error, and also so that in the case of ext4_lookup(), we return an error instead of a NULL inode, since that will result in a negative dentry cache entry that will stick around long past the OOM condition which caused a transient ENOMEM error.

commit bd8c78e7 upstream. In testmode and vendor command reply/event SKBs we use the skb cb data to store nl80211 parameters between allocation and sending. This causes the code for CONFIG_NETLINK_MMAP to get confused, because it takes ownership of the skb cb data when the SKB is handed off to netlink, and it doesn't explicitly clear it. Clear the skb cb explicitly when we're done and before it gets passed to netlink to avoid this issue. Reported-by:

commit d3cb8bf6 upstream. A migration entry is marked as write if pte_write was true at the time the entry was created. The VMA protections are not double checked when migration entries are being removed as mprotect marks write-migration-entries as read. It means that potentially we take a spurious fault to mark PTEs write again but it's straight-forward. However, there is a race between write migrations being marked read and migrations finishing. This potentially allows a PTE to be write that should have been read. Close this race by double checking the VMA permissions using maybe_mkwrite when migration completes.
