commit e6f0c6e6 upstream. Commit ac7cf246 ("ocfs2/dlm: fix race between convert and recovery") checks if lockres master has changed to identify whether new master has finished recovery or not. This will introduce a race that right after old master does umount ( means master will change), a new convert request comes. In this case, it will reset lockres state to DLM_RECOVERING and then retry convert, and then fail with lockres->l_action being set to OCFS2_AST_INVALID, which will cause inconsistent lock level between ocfs2 and dlm, and then finally BUG. Since dlm recovery will clear lock->convert_pending in dlm_move_lockres_to_recovery_list, we can use it to correctly identify the race case between convert and recovery. So fix it.

commit 53a5d5dd upstream. The current implementation uses a global per-cpu array to store data which are used to derive the next IV. This is insecure as the attacker may change the stored data. This patch removes all traces of chaining and replaces it with multiplication of the salt and the sequence number. Fixes: a10f554f ("crypto: echainiv - Add encrypted chain IV...")

commit acdb04d0 upstream. When we need to allocate a temporary blkcipher_walk_next and it fails, the code is supposed to take the slow path of processing the data block by block. However, due to an unrelated change we instead end up dereferencing the NULL pointer. This patch fixes it by moving the unrelated bsize setting out of the way so that we enter the slow path as inteded.

commit f82e90b2 upstream. The AES-CTR glue code avoids calling into the blkcipher API for the tail portion of the walk, by comparing the remainder of walk.nbytes modulo AES_BLOCK_SIZE with the residual nbytes, and jumping straight into the tail processing block if they are equal. This tail processing block checks whether nbytes != 0, and does nothing otherwise. However, in case of an allocation failure in the blkcipher layer, we may enter this code with walk.nbytes == 0, while nbytes > 0. In this case, we should not dereference the source and destination pointers, since they may be NULL. So instead of checking for nbytes != 0, check for (walk.nbytes % AES_BLOCK_SIZE) != 0, which implies the former in non-error conditions.

[ Upstream commit bb1fceca ] When tcp_sendmsg() allocates a fresh and empty skb, it puts it at the tail of the write queue using tcp_add_write_queue_tail() Then it attempts to copy user data into this fresh skb. If the copy fails, we undo the work and remove the fresh skb. Unfortunately, this undo lacks the change done to tp->highest_sack and we can leave a dangling pointer (to a freed skb) Later, tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue() can dereference this pointer and access freed memory. For regular kernels where memory is not unmapped, this might cause SACK bugs because tcp_highest_sack_seq() is buggy, returning garbage instead of tp->snd_nxt, but with various debug features like CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, this can crash the kernel. This bug was found by Marco Grassi thanks to syzkaller.

[ Upstream commit db7196a0 ] Commit 76174004 (tcp: do not slow start when cwnd equals ssthresh ) introduced regression in TCP YeAH. Using 100ms delay 1% loss virtual ethernet link kernel 4.2 shows bandwidth ~500KB/s for single TCP connection and kernel 4.3 and above (including 4.8-rc4) shows bandwidth ~100KB/s. That is caused by stalled cwnd when cwnd equals ssthresh. This patch fixes it by proper increasing cwnd in this case.

[ Upstream commit 03c2778a ] Neither the failure or success paths of ping_v6_sendmsg release the dst it acquires. This leads to a flood of warnings from "net/core/dst.c:288 dst_release" on older kernels that don't have 8bf4ada2 backported. That patch optimistically hoped this had been fixed post 3.10, but it seems at least one case wasn't, where I've seen this triggered a lot from machines doing unprivileged icmp sockets.

In the upstream kernel, the function prototype was changed as of b53202e6 ("cgroup: kill cgrp_ss_priv[CGROUP_CANFORK_COUNT] and friends"). That patch is not suitable for stable kernels, and fortunately the warning seems harmless as the prototypes only differ in the second argument that is unused.

commit 8f57e4d9 upstream. Rewrite abs() so that its return type does not depend on the architecture and no unexpected type conversion happen inside of it. The only conversion is from unsigned to signed type. char is left as a return type but treated as a signed type regradless of it's actual signedness. With the old version, int arguments were promoted to long and depending on architecture a long argument might result in s64 or long return type (which may or may not be the same). This came after some back and forth with Nicolas. The current macro has different return type (for the same input type) depending on architecture which might be midly iritating. An alternative version would promote to int like so: #define abs(x) __abs_choose_expr(x, long long, \ __abs_choose_expr(x, long, \ __builtin_choose_expr( \ sizeof(x) <= sizeof(int), \ ({ int __x = (x); __x<0?-__x:__x; }), \ ((void)0)))) I have no preference but imagine Linus might. :] Nicolas argument against is that promoting to int causes iconsistent behaviour: int main(void) { unsigned short a = 0, b = 1, c = a - b; unsigned short d = abs(a - b); unsigned short e = abs(c); printf("%u %u\n", d, e); // prints: 1 65535 } Then again, no sane person expects consistent behaviour from C integer arithmetic. ;) Note: __builtin_types_compatible_p(unsigned char, char) is always false, and __builtin_types_compatible_p(signed char, char) is also always false.
