commit 50c6e282 upstream. Various filesystems don't bother checking for a NULL ACL in posix_acl_equiv_mode, and thus can dereference a NULL pointer when it gets passed one. This usually happens from the NFS server, as the ACL tools never pass a NULL ACL, but instead of one representing the mode bits. Instead of adding boilerplat to all filesystems put this check into one place, which will allow us to remove the check from other filesystems as well later on. Signed-off-by:

commit 0f62fb22 upstream. If an md array with externally managed metadata (e.g. DDF or IMSM) is in use, then we should not set safemode==2 at shutdown because: 1/ this is ineffective: user-space need to be involved in any 'safemode' handling, 2/ The safemode management code doesn't cope with safemode==2 on external metadata and md_check_recover enters an infinite loop. Even at shutdown, an infinite-looping process can be problematic, so this could cause shutdown to hang. Signed-off-by:

commit 84ea7fe3 upstream. switch_hrtimer_base() calls hrtimer_check_target() which ensures that we do not migrate a timer to a remote cpu if the timer expires before the current programmed expiry time on that remote cpu. But __hrtimer_start_range_ns() calls switch_hrtimer_base() before the new expiry time is set. So the sanity check in hrtimer_check_target() is operating on stale or even uninitialized data. Update expiry time before calling switch_hrtimer_base(). [ tglx: Rewrote changelog once again ] Signed-off-by:

commit 012a45e3 upstream. If a cpu is idle and starts an hrtimer which is not pinned on that same cpu, the nohz code might target the timer to a different cpu. In the case that we switch the cpu base of the timer we already have a sanity check in place, which determines whether the timer is earlier than the current leftmost timer on the target cpu. In that case we enqueue the timer on the current cpu because we cannot reprogram the clock event device on the target. If the timers base is already the target CPU we do not have this sanity check in place so we enqueue the timer as the leftmost timer in the target cpus rb tree, but we cannot reprogram the clock event device on the target cpu. So the timer expires late and subsequently prevents the reprogramming of the target cpu clock event device until the previously programmed event fires or a timer with an earlier expiry time gets enqueued on the target cpu itself. Add the same target check as we have for the switch base case and start the timer on the current cpu if it would become the leftmost timer on the target.

commit 6c6c0d5a upstream. If the last hrtimer interrupt detected a hang it sets hang_detected=1 and programs the clock event device with a delay to let the system make progress. If hang_detected == 1, we prevent reprogramming of the clock event device in hrtimer_reprogram() but not in hrtimer_force_reprogram(). This can lead to the following situation: hrtimer_interrupt() hang_detected = 1; program ce device to Xms from now (hang delay) We have two timers pending: T1 expires 50ms from now T2 expires 5s from now Now T1 gets canceled, which causes hrtimer_force_reprogram() to be invoked, which in turn programs the clock event device to T2 (5 seconds from now). Any hrtimer_start after that will not reprogram the hardware due to hang_detected still being set. So we effectivly block all timers until the T2 event fires and cleans up the hang situation. Add a check for hang_detected to hrtimer_force_reprogram() which prevents the reprogramming of the hang delay in the hardware timer. The subsequent hrtimer_interrupt will resolve all outstanding issues. [ tglx: Rewrote subject and changelog and fixed up the comment in hrtimer_force_reprogram() ] Signed-off-by:

commit 58b116bc upstream. When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PREEMPT it is possible to reach a state when all modules loaded but some driver still stuck in the deferred list and there is a need for external event to kick the deferred queue to probe these drivers. The issue has been observed on embedded systems with CONFIG_PREEMPT enabled, audio support built as modules and using nfsroot for root filesystem. The following log fragment shows such sequence when all audio modules were loaded but the sound card is not present since the machine driver has failed to probe due to missing dependency during it's probe. The board is am335x-evmsk (McASP<->tlv320aic3106 codec) with davinci-evm machine driver: ... [ 12.615118] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: ENTER [ 12.719969] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: ENTER [ 12.725753] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: snd_soc_register_card [ 12.753846] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: snd_soc_register_component [ 12.922051] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: snd_soc_register_component DONE [ 12.950839] davinci_evm sound.3: ASoC: platform (null) not registered [ 12.957898] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: snd_soc_register_card DONE (-517) [ 13.099026] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: Kicking the deferred list [ 13.177838] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: really_probe: probe_count = 2 [ 13.194130] davinci_evm sound.3: snd_soc_register_card failed (-517) [ 13.346755] davinci_mcasp_driver_init: LEAVE [ 13.377446] platform sound.3: Driver davinci_evm requests probe deferral [ 13.592527] platform sound.3: really_probe: probe_count = 0 In the log the machine driver enters it's probe at 12.719969 (this point it has been removed from the deferred lists). McASP driver already executing it's probing (since 12.615118). The machine driver tries to construct the sound card (12.950839) but did not found one of the components so it fails. After this McASP driver registers all the ASoC components (the machine driver still in it's probe function after it failed to construct the card) and the deferred work is prepared at 13.099026 (note that this time the machine driver is not in the lists so it is not going to be handled when the work is executing). Lastly the machine driver exit from it's probe and the core places it to the deferred list but there will be no other driver going to load and the deferred queue is not going to be kicked again - till we have external event like connecting USB stick, etc. The proposed solution is to try the deferred queue once more when the last driver is asking for deferring and we had drivers loaded while this last driver was probing. This way we can avoid drivers stuck in the deferred queue. Signed-off-by:

commit 9844f546 upstream. The invalidation is required in order to maintain proper semantics under CoW conditions. In scenarios where a process clones several threads, a thread operating on a core whose DTLB entry for a particular hugepage has not been invalidated, will be reading from the hugepage that belongs to the forked child process, even after hugetlb_cow(). The thread will not see the updated page as long as the stale DTLB entry remains cached, the thread attempts to write into the page, the child process exits, or the thread gets migrated to a different processor.

commit 48e8ac29 upstream. With recent changes it is possible for the timer handler to detect an idle interface and not start the timer, but the thread to start an operation at the same time. The thread will not start the timer in that instance, resulting in the timer not running. Instead, move all timer operations under the lock and start the timer in the thread if it detect non-idle and the timer is not already running. Moving under locks allows the last timeout to be set in both the thread and the timer. 'Timer is not running' means that the timer is not pending and smi_timeout() is not running. So we need a flag to detect this correctly. Also fix a few other timeout bugs: setting the last timeout when the interrupt has to be disabled and the timer started, and setting the last timeout in check_start_timer_thread possibly racing with the timer Signed-off-by:

commit 98a01e77 upstream. On architectures with sizeof(int) < sizeof (long), the computation of mask inside apply_slack() can be undefined if the computed bit is > 32. E.g. with: expires = 0xffffe6f5 and slack = 25, we get: expires_limit = 0x20000000e bit = 33 mask = (1 << 33) - 1 /* undefined */ On x86, mask becomes 1 and and the slack is not applied properly. On s390, mask is -1, expires is set to 0 and the timer fires immediately. Use 1UL << bit to solve that issue. Suggested-by:

commit 1b17844b upstream. fixup_user_fault() is used by the futex code when the direct user access fails, and the futex code wants it to either map in the page in a usable form or return an error. It relied on handle_mm_fault() to map the page, and correctly checked the error return from that, but while that does map the page, it doesn't actually guarantee that the page will be mapped with sufficient permissions to be then accessed. So do the appropriate tests of the vma access rights by hand. [ Side note: arguably handle_mm_fault() could just do that itself, but we have traditionally done it in the caller, because some callers - notably get_user_pages() - have been able to access pages even when they are mapped with PROT_NONE. Maybe we should re-visit that design decision, but in the meantime this is the minimal patch. ] Found by Dave Jones running his trinity tool. Reported-by:

commit a949ae56 upstream. A race exists between module loading and enabling of function tracer. CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- load_module() module->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING register_ftrace_function() mutex_lock(&ftrace_lock); ftrace_startup() update_ftrace_function(); ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare() set_all_module_text_rw(); <enables-ftrace> ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process() set_all_module_text_ro(); [ here all module text is set to RO, including the module that is loading!! ] blocking_notifier_call_chain(MODULE_STATE_COMING); ftrace_init_module() [ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails! ftrace_bug() is called] When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot. The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be treated as such. The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

commit 866293ee upstream. Dave Jones trinity syscall fuzzer exposed an issue in the deadlock detection code of rtmutex: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140429151655.GA14277@redhat.com That underlying issue has been fixed with a patch to the rtmutex code, but the futex code must not call into rtmutex in that case because - it can detect that issue early - it avoids a different and more complex fixup for backing out If the user space variable got manipulated to 0x80000000 which means no lock holder, but the waiters bit set and an active pi_state in the kernel is found we can figure out the recursive locking issue by looking at the pi_state owner. If that is the current task, then we can safely return -EDEADLK. The check should have been added in commit 59fa6245 (futex: Handle futex_pi OWNER_DIED take over correctly) already, but I did not see the above issue caused by user space manipulation back then.

[ Upstream commit 16c0b164 ] We drop packet unconditionally when we fail to mirror it. This is not intended in some cases. Consdier for kvm guest, we may mirror the traffic of the bridge to a tap device used by a VM. When kernel fails to mirror the packet in conditions such as when qemu crashes or stop polling the tap, it's hard for the management software to detect such condition and clean the the mirroring before. This would lead all packets to the bridge to be dropped and break the netowrk of other virtual machines. To solve the issue, the patch does not drop packets when kernel fails to mirror it, and only drop the redirected packets. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 0cda345d ] commit b9f47a3a (tcp_cubic: limit delayed_ack ratio to prevent divide error) try to prevent divide error, but there is still a little chance that delayed_ack can reach zero. In case the param cnt get negative value, then ratio+cnt would overflow and may happen to be zero. As a result, min(ratio, ACK_RATIO_LIMIT) will calculate to be zero. In some old kernels, such as 2.6.32, there is a bug that would pass negative param, which then ultimately leads to this divide error. commit 5b35e1e6 (tcp: fix tcp_trim_head() to adjust segment count with skb MSS) fixed the negative param issue. However, it's safe that we fix the range of delayed_ack as well, to make sure we do not hit a divide by zero. CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by:

Additionally the above commit breaks kvm configurations where one VM is using a device that support checksum offload (virtio) and the other VM does not. In this case, packets leaving virtio device will have CHECKSUM_PARTIAL set. The packets is forwarded to a macvtap that has offload features turned off. Since we use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, the host does does not update the checksum and thus a bad checksum is passed up to the guest.

[ Upstream commit c53864fd ] Since 115c9b81 (rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocation), RTM_NEWLINK messages only contain the IFLA_VFINFO_LIST attribute if they were solicited by a GETLINK message containing an IFLA_EXT_MASK attribute with the RTEXT_FILTER_VF flag. That was done because some user programs broke when they received more data than expected - because IFLA_VFINFO_LIST contains information for each VF it can become large if there are many VFs. However, the IFLA_VF_PORTS attribute, supplied for devices which implement ndo_get_vf_port (currently the 'enic' driver only), has the same problem. It supplies per-VF information and can therefore become large, but it is not currently conditional on the IFLA_EXT_MASK value. Worse, it interacts badly with the existing EXT_MASK handling. When IFLA_EXT_MASK is not supplied, the buffer for netlink replies is fixed at NLMSG_GOODSIZE. If the information for IFLA_VF_PORTS exceeds this, then rtnl_fill_ifinfo() returns -EMSGSIZE on the first message in a packet. netlink_dump() will misinterpret this as having finished the listing and omit data for this interface and all subsequent ones. That can cause getifaddrs(3) to enter an infinite loop. This patch addresses the problem by only supplying IFLA_VF_PORTS when IFLA_EXT_MASK is supplied with the RTEXT_FILTER_VF flag set.

[ Upstream commit 05ab8f26 ] The BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR and BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST extensions fail to check for a minimal message length before testing the supplied offset to be within the bounds of the message. This allows the subtraction of the nla header to underflow and therefore -- as the data type is unsigned -- allowing far to big offset and length values for the search of the netlink attribute. The remainder calculation for the BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST extension is also wrong. It has the minuend and subtrahend mixed up, therefore calculates a huge length value, allowing to overrun the end of the message while looking for the netlink attribute. The following three BPF snippets will trigger the bugs when attached to a UNIX datagram socket and parsing a message with length 1, 2 or 3. ,-[ PoC for missing size check in BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR ]-- | ld #0x87654321 | ldx #42 | ld #nla | ret a `--- ,-[ PoC for the same bug in BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST ]-- | ld #0x87654321 | ldx #42 | ld #nlan | ret a `--- ,-[ PoC for wrong remainder calculation in BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST ]-- | ; (needs a fake netlink header at offset 0) | ld #0 | ldx #42 | ld #nlan | ret a `--- Fix the first issue by ensuring the message length fulfills the minimal size constrains of a nla header. Fix the second bug by getting the math for the remainder calculation right.

[ Upstream commit 30f78d8e ] Francois reported that setting big mtu on loopback device could prevent tcp sessions making progress. We do not support (yet ?) IPv6 Jumbograms and cook corrupted packets. We must limit the IPv6 MTU to (65535 + 40) bytes in theory. Tested: ifconfig lo mtu 70000 netperf -H ::1 Before patch : Throughput : 0.05 Mbits After patch : Throughput : 35484 Mbits Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 6d39d589 ] In case of tcp, gso_size contains the tcpmss. For UFO (udp fragmentation offloading) skbs, gso_size is the fragment payload size, i.e. we must not account for udp header size. Otherwise, when using virtio drivers, a to-be-forwarded UFO GSO packet will be needlessly fragmented in the forward path, because we think its individual segments are too large for the outgoing link.
