Merge two mm fixes from Andrew Morton. * emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: mm: prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative Revert "mm, page_alloc: only use per-cpu allocator for irq-safe requests"
-
Rabin Vincent authored
Commit 6afcf8ef ("mm, compaction: fix NR_ISOLATED_* stats for pfn based migration") moved the dec_node_page_state() call (along with the page_is_file_cache() call) to after putback_lru_page(). But page_is_file_cache() can change after putback_lru_page() is called, so it should be called before putback_lru_page(), as it was before that patch, to prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative. Without this fix, non-CONFIG_SMP kernels end up hanging in the while(too_many_isolated()) { congestion_wait() } loop in shrink_active_list() due to the negative stats.

This reverts commit 374ad05a. While the patch worked great for userspace allocations, the fact that softirq loses the per-cpu allocator caused problems. It needs to be redone taking into account that a separate list is needed for hard/soft IRQs or alternatively find a cheap way of detecting reentry due to an interrupt. Both are possible but sufficiently tricky that it shouldn't be rushed. Jesper had one method for allowing softirqs but reported that the cost was high enough that it performed similarly to a plain revert. His figures for netperf TCP_STREAM were as follows Baseline v4.10.0 : 60316 Mbit/s Current 4.11.0-rc6: 47491 Mbit/s Jesper's patch : 60662 Mbit/s This patch : 60106 Mbit/s As this is a regression, I wish to revert to noirq allocator for now and go back to the drawing board.

It apears that devices designed around Wacom's G11 chipset (e.g. Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 260, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga, Dell XPS 12 9250, Dell Venue 8 Pro 5855, etc.) suffer from a common issue in their HID descriptors. The logical maximum is not updated for the "Contact Identifier" usage, leaving it as just "1" despite these devices being capable of tracking far more touches. Commit 60a22186 began ignoring usages with out-of-range values, causing problems for devices based on this chipset. Touches after the first will have an out-of-range Contact Identifier, and ignoring that usage will cause the kernel to incorrectly slot each finger's events (along with all the knock-on userspace effects that entails). This commit checks for these buggy descriptors and updates the maximum where required. Prior chipsets have used "255" as the maximum (and the G11, at least, doesn't seem to actually use IDs outside the range of 1..CONTACTMAX) so continue using this value.

I noticed that reading the snapshot file when it is empty no longer gives a status. It suppose to show the status of the snapshot buffer as well as how to allocate and use it. For example: ># cat snapshot # tracer: nop # # # * Snapshot is allocated * # # Snapshot commands: # echo 0 > snapshot : Clears and frees snapshot buffer # echo 1 > snapshot : Allocates snapshot buffer, if not already allocated. # Takes a snapshot of the main buffer. # echo 2 > snapshot : Clears snapshot buffer (but does not allocate or free) # (Doesn't have to be '2' works with any number that # is not a '0' or '1') But instead it just showed an empty buffer: ># cat snapshot # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 0/0 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | What happened was that it was using the ring_buffer_iter_empty() function to see if it was empty, and if it was, it showed the status. But that function was returning false when it was empty. The reason was that the iter header page was on the reader page, and the reader page was empty, but so was the buffer itself. The check only tested to see if the iter was on the commit page, but the commit page was no longer pointing to the reader page, but as all pages were empty, the buffer is also.

Commit 7613c922 ("backlight: pwm_bl: Move the checks for initial power state to a separate function") not just moved some code, but made slight changes in semantics. If a gpiochip doesn't implement the optional .get_direction() callback, gpiod_get_direction always returns -EINVAL, which is never equal to GPIOF_DIR_IN, leading to the GPIO not being configured for output. To avoid this, invert the test and check for not GPIOF_DIR_OUT instead, like the original code did. This restores the display on r8a7740/armadillo.

Currently the snapshot trigger enables the probe and then allocates the snapshot. If the probe triggers before the allocation, it could cause the snapshot to fail and turn tracing off. It's best to allocate the snapshot buffer first, and then enable the trigger. If something goes wrong in the enabling of the trigger, the snapshot buffer is still allocated, but it can also be freed by the user by writting zero into the snapshot buffer file. Also add a check of the return status of alloc_snapshot().

Because HID_DG_TOOLSERIALNUMBER doesn't first cast the value recieved from HID to an unsigned type, sign-extension rules can cause the value of wacom_wac->serial[0] to inadvertently wind up with all 32 of its highest bits set if the highest bit of "value" was set. This can cause problems for Tablet PC devices which use AES sensors and the xf86-input-wacom userspace driver. It is not uncommon for AES sensors to send a serial number of '0' while the pen is entering or leaving proximity. The xf86-input-wacom driver ignores events with a serial number of '0' since it cannot match them up to an in-use tool. To ensure the xf86-input-wacom driver does not ignore the final out-of-proximity event, the kernel does not send MSC_SERIAL events when the value of wacom_wac->serial[0] is '0'. If the highest bit of HID_DG_TOOLSERIALNUMBER is set by an in-prox pen which later leaves proximity and sends a '0' for HID_DG_TOOLSERIALNUMBER, then only the lowest 32 bits of wacom_wac->serial[0] are actually cleared, causing the kernel to send an MSC_SERIAL event. Since the 'input_event' function takes an 'int' as argument, only those lowest (now-cleared) 32 bits of wacom_wac->serial[0] are sent to userspace, causing xf86-input-wacom to ignore the event. If the event was the final out-of-prox event, then xf86-input-wacom may remain in a state where it believes the pen is in proximity and refuses to allow other devices under its control (e.g. the touchscreen) to move the cursor. It should be noted that EMR devices and devices which use both the HID_DG_TOOLSERIALNUMBER and WACOM_HID_WD_SERIALHI usages (in that order) would be immune to this issue. It appears only AES devices are affected.

This fixes CVE-2016-9604. Keyrings whose name begin with a '.' are special internal keyrings and so userspace isn't allowed to create keyrings by this name to prevent shadowing. However, the patch that added the guard didn't fix KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING. Not only can that create dot-named keyrings, it can also subscribe to them as a session keyring if they grant SEARCH permission to the user. This, for example, allows a root process to set .builtin_trusted_keys as its session keyring, at which point it has full access because now the possessor permissions are added. This permits root to add extra public keys, thereby bypassing module verification. This also affects kexec and IMA. This can be tested by (as root): keyctl session .builtin_trusted_keys keyctl add user a a @s keyctl list @s which on my test box gives me: 2 keys in keyring: 180010936: ---lswrv 0 0 asymmetric: Build time autogenerated kernel key: ae3d4a31b82daa8e1a75b49dc2bba949fd992a05 801382539: --alswrv 0 0 user: a Fix this by rejecting names beginning with a '.' in the keyctl.

commit 4fcd1813 ("Fix reconnect to not defer smb3 session reconnect long after socket reconnect") added support for Negotiate requests to be initiated by echo calls. To avoid delays in calling echo after a reconnect, I added the patch introduced by the commit b8c60012 ("Call echo service immediately after socket reconnect"). This has however caused a regression with cifs shares which do not have support for echo calls to trigger Negotiate requests. On connections which need to call Negotiation, the echo calls trigger an error which triggers a reconnect which in turn triggers another echo call. This results in a loop which is only broken when an operation is performed on the cifs share. For an idle share, it can DOS a server. The patch uses the smb_operation can_echo() for cifs so that it is called only if connection has been already been setup. kernel bz: 194531 Signed-off-by: Sachin Prabhu <sprabhu@redhat.com> Tested-by: Jonathan Liu <net147@gmail.com> Acked-by: Pavel Shilovsky <pshilov@microsoft.com> CC: Stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>

When function tracer has a pid filter, it adds a probe to sched_switch to track if current task can be ignored. The probe checks the ftrace_ignore_pid from current tr to filter tasks. But it misses to delete the probe when removing an instance so that it can cause a crash due to the invalid tr pointer (use-after-free). This is easily reproducible with the following: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # mkdir instances/buggy # echo $$ > instances/buggy/set_ftrace_pid # rmdir instances/buggy ============================================================================ BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ftrace_filter_pid_sched_switch_probe+0x3d/0x90 Read of size 8 by task kworker/0:1/17 CPU: 0 PID: 17 Comm: kworker/0:1 Tainted: G B 4.11.0-rc3 #198 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x68/0x9f kasan_object_err+0x21/0x70 kasan_report.part.1+0x22b/0x500 ? ftrace_filter_pid_sched_switch_probe+0x3d/0x90 kasan_report+0x25/0x30 __asan_load8+0x5e/0x70 ftrace_filter_pid_sched_switch_probe+0x3d/0x90 ? fpid_start+0x130/0x130 __schedule+0x571/0xce0 ... To fix it, use ftrace_clear_pids() to unregister the probe. As instance_rmdir() already updated ftrace codes, it can just free the filter safely.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== Two BPF fixes The set fixes cb_access and xdp_adjust_head bits in struct bpf_prog, that are used for requirement checks on the program rather than f.e. heuristics. Thus, for tail calls, we cannot make any assumptions and are forced to set them. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit 17bedab2 ("bpf: xdp: Allow head adjustment in XDP prog") added the xdp_adjust_head bit to the BPF prog in order to tell drivers that the program that is to be attached requires support for the XDP bpf_xdp_adjust_head() helper such that drivers not supporting this helper can reject the program. There are also drivers that do support the helper, but need to check for xdp_adjust_head bit in order to move packet metadata prepended by the firmware away for making headroom. For these cases, the current check for xdp_adjust_head bit is insufficient since there can be cases where the program itself does not use the bpf_xdp_adjust_head() helper, but tail calls into another program that uses bpf_xdp_adjust_head(). As such, the xdp_adjust_head bit is still set to 0. Since the first program has no control over which program it calls into, we need to assume that bpf_xdp_adjust_head() helper is used upon tail calls. Thus, for the very same reasons in cb_access, set the xdp_adjust_head bit to 1 when the main program uses tail calls.

Commit ff936a04 ("bpf: fix cb access in socket filter programs") added a fix for socket filter programs such that in i) AF_PACKET the 20 bytes of skb->cb[] area gets zeroed before use in order to not leak data, and ii) socket filter programs attached to TCP/UDP sockets need to save/restore these 20 bytes since they are also used by protocol layers at that time. The problem is that bpf_prog_run_save_cb() and bpf_prog_run_clear_cb() only look at the actual attached program to determine whether to zero or save/restore the skb->cb[] parts. There can be cases where the actual attached program does not access the skb->cb[], but the program tail calls into another program which does access this area. In such a case, the zero or save/restore is currently not performed. Since the programs we tail call into are unknown at verification time and can dynamically change, we need to assume that whenever the attached program performs a tail call, that later programs could access the skb->cb[], and therefore we need to always set cb_access to 1.

We lack a saddr check for ::1. This causes security issues e.g. with acls permitting connections from ::1 because of assumption that these originate from local machine. Assuming a source address of ::1 is local seems reasonable. RFC4291 doesn't allow such a source address either, so drop such packets.

Sean Wang says: ==================== mediatek: Fix crash caused by reporting inconsistent skb->len to BQL Changes since v1: - fix inconsistent enumeration which easily causes the potential bug The series fixes kernel BUG caused by inconsistent SKB length reported into BQL. The reason for inconsistent length comes from hardware BUG which results in different port number carried on the TXD within the lifecycle of SKB. So patch 2) is proposed for use a software way to track which port the SKB involving instead of hardware way. And patch 1) is given for another issue I found which causes TXD and SKB inconsistency that is not expected in the initial logic, so it is also being corrected it in the series. The log for the kernel BUG caused by the issue is posted as below. [ 120.825955] kernel BUG at ... lib/dynamic_queue_limits.c:26!
