commit b88a634a upstream. If cpuidle is disabled, that means that: per_cpu(acpi_cpuidle_device, pr->id) is set to NULL as the acpi_processor_power_init ends up failing at retval = cpuidle_register_driver(&acpi_idle_driver) (in acpi_processor_power_init) and never sets the per_cpu idle device. So when acpi_processor_hotplug on CPU online notification tries to reference said device it crashes: cpu 3 spinlock event irq 62 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000004 IP: [<ffffffff81381013>] acpi_processor_setup_cpuidle_cx+0x3f/0x105 PGD a259b067 PUD ab38b067 PMD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP odules linked in: dm_multipath dm_mod xen_evtchn iscsi_boot_sysfs iscsi_tcp libiscsi_tcp libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi libcrc32c crc32c nouveau mxm_wmi wmi radeon ttm sg sr_mod sd_mod cdrom ata_generic ata_piix libata crc32c_intel scsi_mod atl1c i915 fbcon tileblit font bitblit softcursor drm_kms_helper video xen_blkfront xen_netfront fb_sys_fops sysimgblt sysfillrect syscopyarea xenfs xen_privcmd mperf CPU 1 Pid: 3047, comm: bash Not tainted 3.8.0-rc3upstream-00250-g165c029 #1 MSI MS-7680/H61M-P23 (MS-7680) RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81381013>] [<ffffffff81381013>] acpi_processor_setup_cpuidle_cx+0x3f/0x105 RSP: e02b:ffff88001742dca8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000010be9 RBX: ffff8800a0a61800 RCX: ffff880105380000 RDX: 0000000000000003 RSI: 0000000000000200 RDI: ffff8800a0a61800 RBP: ffff88001742dce8 R08: ffffffff81812360 R09: 0000000000000200 R10: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa R11: 0000000000000001 R12: ffff8800a0a61800 R13: 00000000ffffff01 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffffffff81a907a0 FS: 00007fd6942f7700(0000) GS:ffff880105280000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: e033 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000004 CR3: 00000000a6773000 CR4: 0000000000042660 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process bash (pid: 3047, threadinfo ffff88001742c000, task ffff880017944000) Stack: 0000000000000150 ffff880100f59e00 ffff88001742dcd8 ffff8800a0a61800 0000000000000000 00000000ffffff01 0000000000000000 ffffffff81a907a0 ffff88001742dd18 ffffffff813815b1 ffff88001742dd08 ffffffff810ae336 Call Trace: [<ffffffff813815b1>] acpi_processor_hotplug+0x7c/0x9f [<ffffffff810ae336>] ? schedule_delayed_work_on+0x16/0x20 [<ffffffff8137ee8f>] acpi_cpu_soft_notify+0x90/0xca [<ffffffff8166023d>] notifier_call_chain+0x4d/0x70 [<ffffffff810bc369>] __raw_notifier_call_chain+0x9/0x10 [<ffffffff81094a4b>] __cpu_notify+0x1b/0x30 [<ffffffff81652cf7>] _cpu_up+0x103/0x14b [<ffffffff81652e18>] cpu_up+0xd9/0xec [<ffffffff8164a254>] store_online+0x94/0xd0 [<ffffffff814122fb>] dev_attr_store+0x1b/0x20 [<ffffffff81216404>] sysfs_write_file+0xf4/0x170 This patch fixes it.

commit a129a7c8 upstream. When running on 32bit the mce handler could misinterpret vm86 mode as ring 0. This can affect whether it does recovery or not; it was possible to panic when recovery was actually possible. Fix this by always forcing vm86 to look like ring 3. [ Backport to 3.0 notes: Things changed there slightly: - move mce_get_rip() up. It fills up m->cs and m->ip values which are evaluated in mce_severity(). Therefore move it up right before the mce_severity call. This seem to be another bug in 3.0? - Place the backport (fix m->cs in V86 case) to where m->cs gets filled which is mce_get_rip() in 3.0 ] Signed-off-by:

So guest's X86_FEATURE_XSAVE should be masked out on hosts without X86_FEATURE_XSAVE, making kvm_set_cr4 with X86_CR4_OSXSAVE fail. Userspaces that allow specifying guest cpuid with X86_FEATURE_XSAVE even on hosts that do not support it, might be susceptible to this attack from inside the guest as well. Allow setting X86_CR4_OSXSAVE bit only if host has XSAVE support. Signed-off-by:

commit a2c118bf upstream. If the guest specifies a IOAPIC_REG_SELECT with an invalid value and follows that with a read of the IOAPIC_REG_WINDOW KVM does not properly validate that request. ioapic_read_indirect contains an ASSERT(redir_index < IOAPIC_NUM_PINS), but the ASSERT has no effect in non-debug builds. In recent kernels this allows a guest to cause a kernel oops by reading invalid memory. In older kernels (pre-3.3) this allows a guest to read from large ranges of host memory. Tested: tested against apic unit tests. Signed-off-by:

This was fixed by commit 8f964525 upstream. This alternate fix avoids the need for extensive backporting. RHEL5 i386 guests register non 32-byte aligned addresses: kvm-clock: cpu 1, msr 0:3018aa5, secondary cpu clock kvm-clock: cpu 2, msr 0:301f8e9, secondary cpu clock kvm-clock: cpu 3, msr 0:302672d, secondary cpu clock Check for an address+len that would cross page boundary instead.

commit c300aa64 upstream. If the guest sets the GPA of the time_page so that the request to update the time straddles a page then KVM will write onto an incorrect page. The write is done byusing kmap atomic to get a pointer to the page for the time structure and then performing a memcpy to that page starting at an offset that the guest controls. Well behaved guests always provide a 32-byte aligned address, however a malicious guest could use this to corrupt host kernel memory. Tested: Tested against kvmclock unit test. Signed-off-by:

commit 1160c277 upstream. In paravirtualized x86_64 kernels, vmalloc_fault may cause an oops when lazy MMU updates are enabled, because set_pgd effects are being deferred. One instance of this problem is during process mm cleanup with memory cgroups enabled. The chain of events is as follows: - zap_pte_range enables lazy MMU updates - zap_pte_range eventually calls mem_cgroup_charge_statistics, which accesses the vmalloc'd mem_cgroup per-cpu stat area - vmalloc_fault is triggered which tries to sync the corresponding PGD entry with set_pgd, but the update is deferred - vmalloc_fault oopses due to a mismatch in the PUD entries The OOPs usually looks as so: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:396! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP .. snip ..

commit 0ee364eb upstream. A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads /proc/kcore: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370 [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0 [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130 [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0 [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page. The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be walked resulting in the oops above. This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check. Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now they are running the backup program without accessing /proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it makes sense.

commit c903f045 upstream At the moment the MSR driver only relies upon file system checks. This means that anything as root with any capability set can write to MSRs. Historically that wasn't very interesting but on modern processors the MSRs are such that writing to them provides several ways to execute arbitary code in kernel space. Sample code and documentation on doing this is circulating and MSR attacks are used on Windows 64bit rootkits already. In the Linux case you still need to be able to open the device file so the impact is fairly limited and reduces the security of some capability and security model based systems down towards that of a generic "root owns the box" setup. Therefore they should require CAP_SYS_RAWIO to prevent an elevation of capabilities. The impact of this is fairly minimal on most setups because they don't have heavy use of capabilities. Those using SELinux, SMACK or AppArmor rules might want to consider if their rulesets on the MSR driver could be tighter. Signed-off-by:

" Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves this problem: "This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)." The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the %cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is the approach taken in this patch. Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention and lead to accidents. Reviewed-by:

Testing suggests that at least some Lenovos and some Intels will fail to reboot via EFI, attempting to jump to an unmapped physical address. In the long run we could handle this by providing a page table with a 1:1 mapping of physical addresses, but for now it's probably just easier to assume that ACPI or legacy methods will be present and reboot via those.

Lin Bao reported that one of the HP platforms failed to boot 2.6.32 kernel, when the BIOS enabled interrupt-remapping and x2apic before handing over the control to the Linux kernel. During boot, Linux kernel masks all the interrupt sources (8259, IO-APIC RTE's), setup the interrupt-remapping hardware with the OS controlled table and unmasks the 8259 interrupts but not the IO-APIC RTE's (as the newly setup interrupt-remapping table and the IO-APIC RTE's are not yet programmed by the kernel). Shortly after this, IO-APIC RTE's and the interrupt-remapping table entries are programmed based on the ACPI tables etc. So the expectation is that any interrupt during this window will be dropped and not see the intermediate configuration. In the reported problematic case, BIOS has configured the IO-APIC in virtual wire-B mode. Between the window of the kernel setting up new interrupt-remapping table and the IO-APIC RTE's are properly configured, an interrupt gets routed by the IO-APIC RTE (setup by the virtual wire-B configuration) and sees the empty interrupt-remapping table entry, resulting in vt-d fault causing the platform to generate NMI. And the OS panics on this unexpected NMI. This problem doesn't happen with more recent kernels and closer look at the 2.6.32 kernel shows that the code which masks the IO-APIC RTE's is not working as expected as the nr_ioapic_registers for each IO-APIC is not yet initialized at this point. In the later kernels we initialize nr_ioapic_registers much before and everything works as expected. For 2.6.[32..34] kernels, fix this issue by initializing nr_ioapic_registers early in mp_register_ioapic() [ Relevant upstream commit info: commit 7716a5c4 Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Date: Tue Mar 30 01:07:12 2010 -0700 x86, ioapic: Move nr_ioapic_registers calculation to mp_register_ioapic. As the upstream commit depends on quite a few prior commits and some followup fixes in the mainline, we just picked the smallest relevant hunk for fixing the issue at hand. Problematic platform uses ACPI for IO-APIC, VT-d enumeration etc and this hunk only touches the ACPI based platforms. nr_ioapic_reigsters initialization in enable_IO_APIC() is still retained, so that other configurations like legacy MPS table based enumeration etc works with no change. ] Reported-and-tested-by:

commit b22d127a upstream. shared_policy_replace() use of sp_alloc() is unsafe. 1) sp_node cannot be dereferenced if sp->lock is not held and 2) another thread can modify sp_node between spin_unlock for allocating a new sp node and next spin_lock. The bug was introduced before 2.6.12-rc2. Kosaki's original patch for this problem was to allocate an sp node and policy within shared_policy_replace and initialise it when the lock is reacquired. I was not keen on this approach because it partially duplicates sp_alloc(). As the paths were sp->lock is taken are not that performance critical this patch converts sp->lock to sp->mutex so it can sleep when calling sp_alloc().

commit ec4d9f62 upstream. In fuzzing with trinity, lockdep protested "possible irq lock inversion dependency detected" when isolate_lru_page() reenabled interrupts while still holding the supposedly irq-safe tree_lock: invalidate_inode_pages2 invalidate_complete_page2 spin_lock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock) clear_page_mlock isolate_lru_page spin_unlock_irq(&zone->lru_lock) isolate_lru_page() is correct to enable interrupts unconditionally: invalidate_complete_page2() is incorrect to call clear_page_mlock() while holding tree_lock, which is supposed to nest inside lru_lock. Both truncate_complete_page() and invalidate_complete_page() call clear_page_mlock() before taking tree_lock to remove page from radix_tree. I guess invalidate_complete_page2() preferred to test PageDirty (again) under tree_lock before committing to the munlock; but since the page has already been unmapped, its state is already somewhat inconsistent, and no worse if clear_page_mlock() moved up.

commit ad4b3fb7 upstream. Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and (PageHead) is true, for tail pages. If this is indeed the intended behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic. This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages. [ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr 2008 in commit 6a1e7f77: "pageflags: convert to the use of new macros". And the reason nobody noticed is because the PageHead() tests are almost all about just sanity-checking, and only used on pages that are actual page heads. The fact that the old code returned true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable. - Linus ] Signed-off-by:

commit c50ac050 upstream When called for anonymous (non-shared) mappings, hugetlb_reserve_pages() does a resv_map_alloc(). It depends on code in hugetlbfs's vm_ops->close() to release that allocation. However, in the mmap() failure path, we do a plain unmap_region() without the remove_vma() which actually calls vm_ops->close(). This is a decent fix. This leak could get reintroduced if new code (say, after hugetlb_reserve_pages() in hugetlbfs_file_mmap()) decides to return an error. But, I think it would have to unroll the reservation anyway.

[Fixed upstream by commits 2955b47d and a4683487 from Dan Williams, but they are much more intrusive than this tiny fix, according to Andrew - gregkh] This patch tries to fix a dead loop in async_synchronize_full(), which could be seen when preemption is disabled on a single cpu machine. void async_synchronize_full(void) { do { async_synchronize_cookie(next_cookie); } while (!list_empty(&async_running) || ! list_empty(&async_pending)); } async_synchronize_cookie() calls async_synchronize_cookie_domain() with &async_running as the default domain to synchronize. However, there might be some works in the async_pending list from other domains. On a single cpu system, without preemption, there is no chance for the other works to finish, so async_synchronize_full() enters a dead loop. It seems async_synchronize_full() wants to synchronize all entries in all running lists(domains), so maybe we could just check the entry_count to know whether all works are finished. Currently, async_synchronize_cookie_domain() expects a non-NULL running list ( if NULL, there would be NULL pointer dereference ), so maybe a NULL pointer could be used as an indication for the functions to synchronize all works in all domains.

commit 4fa3e78b upstream. A bus_type has a list of devices (klist_devices), but the list and the subsys_private structure that contains it are not initialized until the bus_type is registered with bus_register(). The panic/reboot path has fixups that look up devices in pci_bus_type. If we panic before registering pci_bus_type, the bus_type exists but the list does not, so mach_reboot_fixups() trips over a null pointer and panics again: mach_reboot_fixups pci_get_device .. bus_find_device(&pci_bus_type, ...) bus->p is NULL Joonsoo reported a problem when panicking before PCI was initialized.

Both bitmap_set from lib/bitmap.c and bitmap_set_ll, which is the lockless version from genalloc.c, use BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK to set the first bits in a long in the bitmap. That one uses (1 << bits) - 1, 0b111, if you are setting the first three bits. This means that the API counts from the least significant bits (LSB from now on) to the MSB. The LSB in the first long is bit 0, then. The same works for the lookup functions. The genalloc code uses longs for the bitmap, as it should. In include/linux/genalloc.h, struct gen_pool_chunk has unsigned long bits[0] as its last member. When allocating the struct, genalloc should reserve enough space for the bitmap. This should be a proper number of longs that can fit the amount of bits in the bitmap. However, genalloc allocates an integer number of bytes that fit the amount of bits, but may not be an integer amount of longs. 9 bytes, for example, could be allocated for 70 bits. This is a problem in itself if the Least Significat Bit in a long is in the byte with the largest address, which happens in Big Endian machines. This means genalloc is not allocating the byte in which it will try to set or check for a bit. This may end up in memory corruption, where genalloc will try to set the bits it has not allocated. In fact, genalloc may not set these bits because it may find them already set, because they were not zeroed since they were not allocated. And that's what causes a BUG when gen_pool_destroy is called and check for any set bits. What really happens is that genalloc uses kmalloc_node with __GFP_ZERO on gen_pool_add_virt. With SLAB and SLUB, this means the whole slab will be cleared, not only the requested bytes. Since struct gen_pool_chunk has a size that is a multiple of 8, and slab sizes are multiples of 8, we get lucky and allocate and clear the right amount of bytes. Hower, this is not the case with SLOB or with older code that did memset after allocating instead of using __GFP_ZERO. So, a simple module as this (running 3.6.0), will cause a crash when rmmod'ed.

commit 54f7be5b upstream. The function rb_check_pages() was added to make sure the ring buffer's pages were sane. This check is done when the ring buffer size is modified as well as when the iterator is released (closing the "trace" file), as that was considered a non fast path and a good place to do a sanity check. The problem is that the check does not have any locks around it. If one process were to read the trace file, and another were to read the raw binary file, the check could happen while the reader is reading the file. The issues with this is that the check requires to clear the HEAD page before doing the full check and it restores it afterward. But readers require the HEAD page to exist before it can read the buffer, otherwise it gives a nasty warning and disables the buffer. By adding the reader lock around the check, this keeps the race from happening. Signed-off-by:

commit f96972f2 upstream. As kernel_power_off() calls disable_nonboot_cpus(), we may also want to have kernel_restart() call disable_nonboot_cpus(). Doing so can help machines that require boot cpu be the last alive cpu during reboot to survive with kernel restart. This fixes one reboot issue seen on imx6q (Cortex-A9 Quad). The machine requires that the restart routine be run on the primary cpu rather than secondary ones. Otherwise, the secondary core running the restart routine will fail to come to online after reboot.

commit f34f9d18 upstream. In !CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET case, if elf_note_info_init fails to allocate memory for info->fields, it frees already allocated stuff and returns error to its caller, fill_note_info. Which in turn returns error to its caller, elf_core_dump. Which jumps to cleanup label and calls free_note_info, which will happily try to free all info->fields again. BOOM. This is the fix.

Vaguely based on upstream commit 574c4866 'consolidate kernel-side struct sigaction declarations'. flush_signal_handlers() needs to know whether sigaction::sa_restorer is defined, not whether SA_RESTORER is defined. Define the __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER macro to indicate this. Signed-off-by:
