commit 62ec95f8 upstream. rtllib_probe_req is defined as "static inline" in rtllib_softmac.c however it is declared differently as "extern inline" in rtllib_softmac.h. Since it isn't used outside of the scope of rtllib_softmac, it makes sense to remove the incorrect declaration.

commit 51b97e35 upstream. Sasha Levin reports: "gcc5 changes the default standard to c11, which makes kernel build unhappy Explicitly define the kernel standard to be gnu89 which should keep everything working exactly like it was before gcc5" There are multiple small issues with the new default, but the biggest issue seems to be that the old - and very useful - GNU extension to allow a cast in front of an initializer has gone away. Patch updated by Kirill: "I'm pretty sure all gcc versions you can build kernel with supports -std=gnu89. cc-option is redunrant. We also need to adjust HOSTCFLAGS otherwise allmodconfig fails for me" Note by Andrew Pinski: "Yes it was reported and both problems relating to this extension has been added to gnu99 and gnu11. Though there are other issues with the kernel dealing with extern inline have different semantics between gnu89 and gnu99/11" End result: we may be able to move up to a newer stdc model eventually, but right now the newer models have some annoying deficiencies, so the traditional "gnu89" model ends up being the preferred one.

commit 6d91857d upstream. With compilers which follow the C99 standard (like modern versions of gcc and clang), "extern inline" does the opposite thing from older versions of gcc (emits code for an externally linkable version of the inline function). "static inline" does the intended behavior in all cases instead.

commit 59c816c1 upstream. This code in vhost_scsi_make_tpg() is confusing because we limit "tpgt" to UINT_MAX but the data type of "tpg->tport_tpgt" and that is a u16. I looked at the context and it turns out that in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint(), "tpg->tport_tpgt" is used as an offset into the vs_tpg[] array which has VHOST_SCSI_MAX_TARGET (256) elements so anything higher than 255 then it is invalid. I have made that the limit now. In vhost_scsi_send_evt() we mask away values higher than 255, but now that the limit has changed, we don't need the mask.

commit 5f5bc6b1 upstream. Replacing a xattr consists of doing a lookup for its existing value, delete the current value from the respective leaf, release the search path and then finally insert the new value. This leaves a time window where readers (getxattr, listxattrs) won't see any value for the xattr. Xattrs are used to store ACLs, so this has security implications. This change also fixes 2 other existing issues which were: *) Deleting the old xattr value without verifying first if the new xattr will fit in the existing leaf item (in case multiple xattrs are packed in the same item due to name hash collision); *) Returning -EEXIST when the flag XATTR_CREATE is given and the xattr doesn't exist but we have have an existing item that packs muliple xattrs with the same name hash as the input xattr. In this case we should return ENOSPC. A test case for xfstests follows soon. Thanks to Alexandre Oliva for reporting the non-atomicity of the xattr replace implementation.

commit d2dc317d upstream. Currently it is possible to lose whole file system block worth of data when we hit the specific interaction with unwritten and delayed extents in status extent tree. The problem is that when we insert delayed extent into extent status tree the only way to get rid of it is when we write out delayed buffer. However there is a limitation in the extent status tree implementation so that when inserting unwritten extent should there be even a single delayed block the whole unwritten extent would be marked as delayed. At this point, there is no way to get rid of the delayed extents, because there are no delayed buffers to write out. So when a we write into said unwritten extent we will convert it to written, but it still remains delayed. When we try to write into that block later ext4_da_map_blocks() will set the buffer new and delayed and map it to invalid block which causes the rest of the block to be zeroed loosing already written data. For now we can fix this by simply not allowing to set delayed status on written extent in the extent status tree. Also add WARN_ON() to make sure that we notice if this happens in the future. This problem can be easily reproduced by running the following xfs_io. xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xaa 4096 2048" \ -c "falloc 0 131072" \ -c "pwrite -S 0xbb 65536 2048" \ -c "fsync" /mnt/test/fff echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xdd 67584 2048" /mnt/test/fff This can be theoretically also reproduced by at random by running fsx, but it's not very reliable, though on machines with bigger page size (like ppc) this can be seen more often (especially xfstest generic/127) Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@canonical.com>

commit f82263c6 upstream. Since commit ee0778a3 ("tools/power: turbostat: make Makefile a bit more capable") turbostat's Makefile is using [...] BUILD_OUTPUT := $(PWD) [...] which obviously causes trouble when building "turbostat" with make -C /usr/src/linux/tools/power/x86/turbostat ARCH=x86 turbostat because GNU make does not update nor guarantee that $PWD is set. This patch changes the Makefile to use $CURDIR instead, which GNU make guarantees to set and update (i.e. when using "make -C ...") and also adds support for the O= option (see "make help" in your root of your kernel source tree for more details).

commit 59d2d18c upstream. If CONFIG_ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64BIT enabled for x86 systems and physical memory is more than 4GB, dma_map_page may return a valid memory address which greater than 0xffffffff. As a result, the mlx5 device page allocator RB tree will be initialized with valid addresses greater than 0xfffffff. However, (addr & PAGE_MASK) set the high four bytes to zeros. So, it's impossible for the function, free_4k, to release the pages whose addresses greater than 4GB. Memory leaks. And mlx5_ib module can't release the pages when user try to remove the module, as a result, system hang.

commit ca9b590c upstream. The current code decreases from the mss size (which is the gso_size from the kernel skb) the size of the packet headers. It shouldn't do that because the mss that comes from the stack (e.g IPoIB) includes only the tcp payload without the headers. The result is indication to the HW that each packet that the HW sends is smaller than what it could be, and too many packets will be sent for big messages. An easy way to demonstrate one more aspect of the problem is by configuring the ipoib mtu to be less than 2*hlen (2*56) and then run app sending big TCP messages. This will tell the HW to send packets with giant (negative value which under unsigned arithmetics becomes a huge positive one) length and the QP moves to SQE state.

commit c1b8940b upstream. We have observed a BUG() crash in fs/attr.c:notify_change(). The crash occurs during an rsync into a filesystem that is exported via NFS. 1.) fs/attr.c:notify_change() modifies the caller's version of attr. 2.) 6de0ec00 ("VFS: make notify_change pass ATTR_KILL_S*ID to setattr operations") introduced a BUG() restriction such that "no function will ever call notify_change() with both ATTR_MODE and ATTR_KILL_S*ID set". Under some circumstances though, it will have assisted in setting the caller's version of attr to this very combination. 3.) 27ac0ffe ("locks: break delegations on any attribute modification") introduced code to handle breaking delegations. This can result in notify_change() being re-called. attr _must_ be explicitly reset to avoid triggering the BUG() established in #2. 4.) The path that that triggers this is via fs/open.c:chmod_common(). The combination of attr flags set here and in the first call to notify_change() along with a later failed break_deleg_wait() results in notify_change() being called again via retry_deleg without resetting attr. Solution is to move retry_deleg in chmod_common() a bit further up to ensure attr is completely reset. There are other places where this seemingly could occur, such as fs/utimes.c:utimes_common(), but the attr flags are not initially set in such a way to trigger this.

commit 2e7056c4 upstream. Looking over the implementation for jhash2 and comparing it to jhash_3words I realized that the two hashes were in fact very different. Doing a bit of digging led me to "The new jhash implementation" in which lookup2 was supposed to have been replaced with lookup3. In reviewing the patch I noticed that jhash2 had originally initialized a and b to JHASH_GOLDENRATIO and c to initval, but after the patch a, b, and c were initialized to initval + (length << 2) + JHASH_INITVAL. However the changes in jhash_3words simply replaced the initialization of a and b with JHASH_INITVAL. This change corrects what I believe was an oversight so that a, b, and c in jhash_3words all have the same value added consisting of initval + (length << 2) + JHASH_INITVAL so that jhash2 and jhash_3words will now produce the same hash result given the same inputs.

commit 6d7e7e02 upstream. For cases where total length of an input SGs is not same as length of the input data for encryption, omap-aes driver crashes. This happens in the case when IPsec is trying to use omap-aes driver. To avoid this, we copy all the pages from the input SG list into a contiguous buffer and prepare a single element SG list for this buffer with length as the total bytes to crypt, which is similar thing that is done in case of unaligned lengths.

There is a race condition between e1000_change_mtu's cleanups and netpoll, when we change the MTU across jumbo size: Changing MTU frees all the rx buffers: e1000_change_mtu -> e1000_down -> e1000_clean_all_rx_rings -> e1000_clean_rx_ring Then, close to the end of e1000_change_mtu: pr_info -> ... -> netpoll_poll_dev -> e1000_clean -> e1000_clean_rx_irq -> e1000_alloc_rx_buffers -> e1000_alloc_frag And when we come back to do the rest of the MTU change: e1000_up -> e1000_configure -> e1000_configure_rx -> e1000_alloc_jumbo_rx_buffers alloc_jumbo finds the buffers already != NULL, since data (shared with page in e1000_rx_buffer->rxbuf) has been re-alloc'd, but it's garbage, or at least not what is expected when in jumbo state. This results in an unusable adapter (packets don't get through), and a NULL pointer dereference on the next call to e1000_clean_rx_ring (other mtu change, link down, shutdown): BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<ffffffff81194d6e>] put_compound_page+0x7e/0x330 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff81195445>] put_page+0x55/0x60 [<ffffffff815d9f44>] e1000_clean_rx_ring+0x134/0x200 [<ffffffff815da055>] e1000_clean_all_rx_rings+0x45/0x60 [<ffffffff815df5e0>] e1000_down+0x1c0/0x1d0 [<ffffffff811e2260>] ? deactivate_slab+0x7f0/0x840 [<ffffffff815e21bc>] e1000_change_mtu+0xdc/0x170 [<ffffffff81647050>] dev_set_mtu+0xa0/0x140 [<ffffffff81664218>] do_setlink+0x218/0xac0 [<ffffffff814459e9>] ? nla_parse+0xb9/0x120 [<ffffffff816652d0>] rtnl_newlink+0x6d0/0x890 [<ffffffff8104f000>] ? kvm_clock_read+0x20/0x40 [<ffffffff810a2068>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0xa8/0x100 [<ffffffff81663802>] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x92/0x260 By setting the allocator to a dummy version, netpoll can't mess up our rx buffers.

commit 5d05e54a upstream. Chuck pointed out a problem that crept in with commit 6ffa30d3 (nfs: don't call blocking operations while !TASK_RUNNING). Linux counts tasks in uninterruptible sleep against the load average, so this caused the system's load average to be pinned at at least 1 when there was a NFSv4.1+ mount active. Not a huge problem, but it's probably worth fixing before we get too many complaints about it. This patch converts the code back to use TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE sleep, simply has it flush any signals on each loop iteration. In practice no one should really be signalling this thread at all, so I think this is reasonably safe. With this change, there's also no need to game the hung task watchdog so we can also convert the schedule_timeout call back to a normal schedule.

sched/idle/x86: Restore mwait_idle() to fix boot hangs, to improve power savings and to improve performance commit b253149b upstream. In Linux-3.9 we removed the mwait_idle() loop: 69fb3676 ("x86 idle: remove mwait_idle() and "idle=mwait" cmdline param") The reasoning was that modern machines should be sufficiently happy during the boot process using the default_idle() HALT loop, until cpuidle loads and either acpi_idle or intel_idle invoke the newer MWAIT-with-hints idle loop. But two machines reported problems: 1. Certain Core2-era machines support MWAIT-C1 and HALT only. MWAIT-C1 is preferred for optimal power and performance. But if they support just C1, cpuidle never loads and so they use the boot-time default idle loop forever. 2. Some laptops will boot-hang if HALT is used, but will boot successfully if MWAIT is used. This appears to be a hidden assumption in BIOS SMI, that is presumably valid on the proprietary OS where the BIOS was validated. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60770 So here we effectively revert the patch above, restoring the mwait_idle() loop. However, we don't bother restoring the idle=mwait cmdline parameter, since it appears to add no value. Maintainer notes: For 3.9, simply revert 69fb3676 for 3.10, patch -F3 applies, fuzz needed due to __cpuinit use in context For 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, this patch applies cleanly Tested-by: Mike Galbraith <bitbucket@online.de> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Acked-by: Mike Galbraith <bitbucket@online.de> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: H.

commit 1915a718 upstream. The return value of power_supply_register() call was not checked and even on error probe() function returned 0. If registering failed then during unbind the driver tried to unregister power supply which was not actually registered. This could lead to memory corruption because power_supply_unregister() unconditionally cleans up given power supply. Fix this by checking return status of power_supply_register() call. In case of failure, clean up sysfs entries and fail the probe.

commit 3cab989a upstream. Calling unlazy_walk() in walk_component() and do_last() when we find a symlink that needs to be followed doesn't acquire a reference to vfsmount. That's fine when the symlink is on the same vfsmount as the parent directory (which is almost always the case), but it's not always true - one _can_ manage to bind a symlink on top of something. And in such cases we end up with excessive mntput(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@canonical.com>

commit 9535c475 upstream. The hardware, according to the specs, is limited to 256 byte transfers, and current driver has no protections in case users attempt to do larger transfers. The code will just stomp over status register and mayhem ensues. Let's split larger transfers into digestable chunks. Doing this allows Atmel MXT driver on Pixel 1 function properly (it hasn't since commit 9d8dc3e5 "Input: atmel_mxt_ts - implement T44 message handling" which tries to consume multiple touchscreen/touchpad reports in a single transaction).

commit 56cbd0cc upstream. mvsas is giving a General protection fault when it encounters an expander attached ATA device. Analysis of mvs_task_prep_ata() shows that the driver is assuming all ATA devices are locally attached and obtaining the phy mask by indexing the local phy table (in the HBA structure) with the phy id. Since expanders have many more phys than the HBA, this is causing the index into the HBA phy table to overflow and returning rubbish as the pointer. mvs_task_prep_ssp() instead does the phy mask using the port properties. Mirror this in mvs_task_prep_ata() to fix the panic.

commit b72c1869 upstream. ptrace_resume() is called when the tracee is still __TASK_TRACED. We set tracee->exit_code and then wake_up_state() changes tracee->state. If the tracer's sub-thread does wait() in between, task_stopped_code(ptrace => T) wrongly looks like another report from tracee. This confuses debugger, and since wait_task_stopped() clears ->exit_code the tracee can miss a signal. Test-case: #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <assert.h> int pid; void *waiter(void *arg) { int stat; for (;;) { assert(pid == wait(&stat)); assert(WIFSTOPPED(stat)); if (WSTOPSIG(stat) == SIGHUP) continue; assert(WSTOPSIG(stat) == SIGCONT); printf("ERR! extra/wrong report:%x\n", stat); } } int main(void) { pthread_t thread; pid = fork(); if (!pid) { assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0); for (;;) kill(getpid(), SIGHUP); } assert(pthread_create(&thread, NULL, waiter, NULL) == 0); for (;;) ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, SIGCONT); return 0; } Note for stable: the bug is very old, but without 9899d11f "ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL" the fix should use lock_task_sighand(child).

commit 66578b0b upstream. In a call to ib_umem_get(), if address is 0x0 and size is already page aligned, check added in commit 8494057a ("IB/uverbs: Prevent integer overflow in ib_umem_get address arithmetic") will refuse to register a memory region that could otherwise be valid (provided vm.mmap_min_addr sysctl and mmap_low_allowed SELinux knobs allow userspace to map something at address 0x0). This patch allows back such registration: ib_umem_get() should probably don't care of the base address provided it can be pinned with get_user_pages(). There's two possible overflows, in (addr + size) and in PAGE_ALIGN(addr + size), this patch keep ensuring none of them happen while allowing to pin memory at address 0x0. Anyway, the case of size equal 0 is no more (partially) handled as 0-length memory region are disallowed by an earlier check.

commit 8abaae62 upstream. If ib_umem_get() is called with a size equal to 0 and an non-page aligned address, one page will be pinned and a 0-sized umem will be returned to the caller. This should not be allowed: it's not expected for a memory region to have a size equal to 0. This patch adds a check to explicitly refuse to register a 0-sized region.

commit a87938b2 upstream. With CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE enabled, and a normal top-down address allocation strategy, load_elf_binary() will attempt to map a PIE binary into an address range immediately below mm->mmap_base. Unfortunately, load_elf_ binary() does not take account of the need to allocate sufficient space for the entire binary which means that, while the first PT_LOAD segment is mapped below mm->mmap_base, the subsequent PT_LOAD segment(s) end up being mapped above mm->mmap_base into the are that is supposed to be the "gap" between the stack and the binary. Since the size of the "gap" on x86_64 is only guaranteed to be 128MB this means that binaries with large data segments > 128MB can end up mapping part of their data segment over their stack resulting in corruption of the stack (and the data segment once the binary starts to run). Any PIE binary with a data segment > 128MB is vulnerable to this although address randomization means that the actual gap between the stack and the end of the binary is normally greater than 128MB. The larger the data segment of the binary the higher the probability of failure. Fix this by calculating the total size of the binary in the same way as load_elf_interp().

Also, fix zero-length COMPARE_AND_WRITE handling within the compare_and_write_callback() and target_complete_ok_work() to queue the response, skipping the initial READ.
