[ Upstream commit cac5e65e ] We did a failed attempt in the past to only use rcu in rtnl dump operations (commit e67f88dd "net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks") Now that dumps are holding RTNL anyway, there is no need to also use rcu locking, as it forbids any scheduling ability, like GFP_KERNEL allocations that controlling path should use instead of GFP_ATOMIC whenever possible. This should fix following splat Cong Wang reported : [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] 3.19.0+ #805 Tainted: G W include/linux/rcupdate.h:538 Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section! other info that might help us debug this: rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0 2 locks held by ip/771: #0: (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8182b8f4>] netlink_dump+0x21/0x26c #1: (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: [<ffffffff817d785b>] rcu_read_lock+0x0/0x6e stack backtrace: CPU: 3 PID: 771 Comm: ip Tainted: G W 3.19.0+ #805 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 0000000000000001 ffff8800d51e7718 ffffffff81a27457 0000000029e729e6 ffff8800d6108000 ffff8800d51e7748 ffffffff810b539b ffffffff820013dd 00000000000001c8 0000000000000000 ffff8800d7448088 ffff8800d51e7758 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81a27457>] dump_stack+0x4c/0x65 [<ffffffff810b539b>] lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0x107/0x110 [<ffffffff8109796f>] rcu_preempt_sleep_check+0x45/0x47 [<ffffffff8109e457>] ___might_sleep+0x1d/0x1cb [<ffffffff8109e67d>] __might_sleep+0x78/0x80 [<ffffffff814b9b1f>] idr_alloc+0x45/0xd1 [<ffffffff810cb7ab>] ? rcu_read_lock_held+0x3b/0x3d [<ffffffff814b9f9d>] ? idr_for_each+0x53/0x101 [<ffffffff817c1383>] alloc_netid+0x61/0x69 [<ffffffff817c14c3>] __peernet2id+0x79/0x8d [<ffffffff817c1ab7>] peernet2id+0x13/0x1f [<ffffffff817d8673>] rtnl_fill_ifinfo+0xa8d/0xc20 [<ffffffff810b17d9>] ? __lock_is_held+0x39/0x52 [<ffffffff817d894f>] rtnl_dump_ifinfo+0x149/0x213 [<ffffffff8182b9c2>] netlink_dump+0xef/0x26c [<ffffffff8182bcba>] netlink_recvmsg+0x17b/0x2c5 [<ffffffff817b0adc>] __sock_recvmsg+0x4e/0x59 [<ffffffff817b1b40>] sock_recvmsg+0x3f/0x51 [<ffffffff817b1f9a>] ___sys_recvmsg+0xf6/0x1d9 [<ffffffff8115dc67>] ? handle_pte_fault+0x6e1/0xd3d [<ffffffff8100a3a0>] ? native_sched_clock+0x35/0x37 [<ffffffff8109f45b>] ? sched_clock_local+0x12/0x72 [<ffffffff8109f6ac>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0x9e/0xb7 [<ffffffff810cb7ab>] ? rcu_read_lock_held+0x3b/0x3d [<ffffffff811abde8>] ? __fcheck_files+0x4c/0x58 [<ffffffff811ac556>] ? __fget_light+0x2d/0x52 [<ffffffff817b376f>] __sys_recvmsg+0x42/0x60 [<ffffffff817b379f>] SyS_recvmsg+0x12/0x1c Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit a14c7d15 ] Commit 740c7f31 ("sh_eth: Ensure DMA engines are stopped before freeing buffers") added a call to sh_eth_reset() to the sh_eth_set_ringparam() and sh_eth_close() paths. However, setting the software reset bit(s) in the EDMR register resets the MAC Address Registers to zero. Hence after kexec, the new kernel doesn't detect a valid MAC address and assigns a random MAC address, breaking DHCP. Set the MAC address again after the reset in sh_eth_dev_exit() to fix this. Tested on r8a7740/armadillo (GETHER) and r8a7791/koelsch (FAST_RCAR). Fixes: 740c7f31 ("sh_eth: Ensure DMA engines are stopped before freeing buffers") Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit f62ba9c1 ] Commit 44c8bc3c ("net: bcmgenet: log RX buffer allocation and RX/TX dma failures") added a few software maintained statistics using BCMGENET_STAT_MIB_RX and BCMGENET_STAT_MIB_TX. These statistics are read from the hardware MIB counters, such that bcmgenet_update_mib_counters() was trying to read from a non-existing MIB offset for these counters. Fix this by introducing a special type: BCMGENET_STAT_SOFT, similar to BCMGENET_STAT_NETDEV, such that bcmgenet_get_ethtool_stats will read from the software mib.

[ Upstream commit 4092e6ac ] This patch adds bcmgenet_tx_poll for the tx_rings. This can reduce the interrupt load and send xmit in network stack on time. This also separated for the completion of tx_ring16 from bcmgenet_poll. The bcmgenet_tx_reclaim of tx_ring[{0,1,2,3}] operative by an interrupt is to be not more than a certain number TxBDs. It is caused by too slowly reclaiming the transmitted skb. Therefore, performance degradation of xmit after 605ad7f1 ("tcp: refine TSO autosizing"). Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 2f1d8b9e ] Brian reported crashes using IPv6 traffic with macvtap/veth combo. I tracked the crashes in neigh_hh_output() -> memcpy(skb->data - HH_DATA_MOD, hh->hh_data, HH_DATA_MOD); Neighbour code assumes headroom to push Ethernet header is at least 16 bytes. It appears macvtap has only 14 bytes available on arches where NET_IP_ALIGN is 0 (like x86) Effect is a corruption of 2 bytes right before skb->head, and possible crashes if accessing non existing memory. This fix should also increase IPv4 performance, as paranoid code in ip_finish_output2() wont have to call skb_realloc_headroom() Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit d720d8ce ] With commit a7526eb5 (net: Unbreak compat_sys_{send,recv}msg), the MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag is blocked at the compat syscall entry points, changing the kernel compat behaviour from the one before the commit it was trying to fix (1be374a0, net: Block MSG_CMSG_COMPAT in send(m)msg and recv(m)msg). On 32-bit kernels (!CONFIG_COMPAT), MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is 0 and the native 32-bit sys_sendmsg() allows flag 0x80000000 to be set (it is ignored by the kernel). However, on a 64-bit kernel, the compat ABI is different with commit a7526eb5. This patch changes the compat_sys_{send,recv}msg behaviour to the one prior to commit 1be374a0. The problem was found running 32-bit LTP (sendmsg01) binary on an arm64 kernel. Arguably, LTP should not pass 0xffffffff as flags to sendmsg() but the general rule is not to break user ABI (even when the user behaviour is not entirely sane).

[ Upstream commit 57e59563 ] Currently following race is possible in team: CPU0 CPU1 team_port_del team_upper_dev_unlink priv_flags &= ~IFF_TEAM_PORT team_handle_frame team_port_get_rcu team_port_exists priv_flags & IFF_TEAM_PORT == 0 return NULL (instead of port got from rx_handler_data) netdev_rx_handler_unregister The thing is that the flag is removed before rx_handler is unregistered. If team_handle_frame is called in between, team_port_exists returns 0 and team_port_get_rcu will return NULL. So do not check the flag here. It is guaranteed by netdev_rx_handler_unregister that team_handle_frame will always see valid rx_handler_data pointer. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 3b471175 ] ipv6_cow_metrics() currently assumes only DST_HOST routes require dynamic metrics allocation from inetpeer. The assumption breaks when ndisc discovered router with RTAX_MTU and RTAX_HOPLIMIT metric.

[ Upstream commit 364d5716 ] ifla_vf_policy[] is wrong in advertising its individual member types as NLA_BINARY since .type = NLA_BINARY in combination with .len declares the len member as *max* attribute length [0, len]. The issue is that when do_setvfinfo() is being called to set up a VF through ndo handler, we could set corrupted data if the attribute length is less than the size of the related structure itself. The intent is exactly the opposite, namely to make sure to pass at least data of minimum size of len.

commit d6abfdb2 upstream. Paravirt spinlock clears slowpath flag after doing unlock. As explained by Linus currently it does: prev = *lock; add_smp(&lock->tickets.head, TICKET_LOCK_INC); /* add_smp() is a full mb() */ if (unlikely(lock->tickets.tail & TICKET_SLOWPATH_FLAG)) __ticket_unlock_slowpath(lock, prev); which is *exactly* the kind of things you cannot do with spinlocks, because after you've done the "add_smp()" and released the spinlock for the fast-path, you can't access the spinlock any more. Exactly because a fast-path lock might come in, and release the whole data structure. Linus suggested that we should not do any writes to lock after unlock(), and we can move slowpath clearing to fastpath lock. So this patch implements the fix with: 1. Moving slowpath flag to head (Oleg): Unlocked locks don't care about the slowpath flag; therefore we can keep it set after the last unlock, and clear it again on the first (try)lock. -- this removes the write after unlock. note that keeping slowpath flag would result in unnecessary kicks. By moving the slowpath flag from the tail to the head ticket we also avoid the need to access both the head and tail tickets on unlock. 2. use xadd to avoid read/write after unlock that checks the need for unlock_kick (Linus): We further avoid the need for a read-after-release by using xadd; the prev head value will include the slowpath flag and indicate if we need to do PV kicking of suspended spinners -- on modern chips xadd isn't (much) more expensive than an add + load.

commit dd369297 upstream. The use of READ_ONCE() causes lots of warnings witht he pending paravirt spinlock fixes, because those ends up having passing a member to a 'const' structure to READ_ONCE(). There should certainly be nothing wrong with using READ_ONCE() with a const source, but the helper function __read_once_size() would cause warnings because it would drop the 'const' qualifier, but also because the destination would be marked 'const' too due to the use of 'typeof'. Use a union of types in READ_ONCE() to avoid this issue. Also make sure to use parenthesis around the macro arguments to avoid possible operator precedence issues. Tested-by:

commit c5b19946 upstream. Commit 927609d6 ("kernel: tighten rules for ACCESS ONCE") results in sparse warnings like "Using plain integer as NULL pointer" - Let's add a type cast to the dummy assignment. To avoid warnings lik "sparse: warning: cast to restricted __hc32" we also use __force on that cast. Fixes: 927609d6 ("kernel: tighten rules for ACCESS ONCE") Signed-off-by:

commit 927609d6 upstream. Now that all non-scalar users of ACCESS_ONCE have been converted to READ_ONCE or ASSIGN once, lets tighten ACCESS_ONCE to only work on scalar types. This variant was proposed by Alexei Starovoitov. Signed-off-by:

commit 1b43d712 upstream. pmc_dbgfs_unregister() will be called when pmc->dbgfs_dir is unconditionally NULL on error path in pmc_dbgfs_register(). To prevent this we move the assignment to where is should be. Fixes: f855911c (x86/pmc_atom: Expose PMC device state and platform sleep state) Reported-by:

commit 1ea76fba upstream. Commit b568b860 ("Treat SCI interrupt as normal GSI interrupt") accidently removes support of legacy PIC interrupt when fixing a regression for Xen, which causes a nasty regression on HP/Compaq nc6000 where we fail to register the ACPI interrupt, and thus lose eg. thermal notifications leading a potentially overheated machine. So reintroduce support of legacy PIC based ACPI SCI interrupt. Reported-by:

commit 4e7c22d4 upstream. The issue is that the stack for processes is not properly randomized on 64 bit architectures due to an integer overflow. The affected function is randomize_stack_top() in file "fs/binfmt_elf.c": static unsigned long randomize_stack_top(unsigned long stack_top) { unsigned int random_variable = 0; if ((current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE) && !(current->personality & ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE)) { random_variable = get_random_int() & STACK_RND_MASK; random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT; } return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable; return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable; } Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int". Since the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which is 0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64): random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT; then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the "random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold the (22+12) result. These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack. Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to 2^30 (One fourth of expected entropy). This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved in the operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and stack_maxrandom_size(). The successful fix can be tested with: $ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done 7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] ... Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff, rather than always being 7fff. Signed-off-by:
