Jann Horn points out that the vmacache_flush_all() function is not only potentially expensive, it's buggy too. It also happens to be entirely unnecessary, because the sequence number overflow case can be avoided by simply making the sequence number be 64-bit. That doesn't even grow the data structures in question, because the other adjacent fields are already 64-bit. So simplify the whole thing by just making the sequence number overflow case go away entirely, which gets rid of all the complications and makes the code faster too. Win-win.

Bin Yang authored
persistent_ram_vmap() returns the page start vaddr. persistent_ram_iomap() supports non-page-aligned mapping. persistent_ram_buffer_map() always adds offset-in-page to the vaddr returned from these two functions, which causes incorrect mapping of non-page-aligned persistent ram buffer. By default ftrace_size is 4096 and max_ftrace_cnt is nr_cpu_ids. Without this patch, the zone_sz in ramoops_init_przs() is 4096/nr_cpu_ids which might not be page aligned. If the offset-in-page > 2048, the vaddr will be in next page. If the next page is not mapped, it will cause kernel panic: [ 0.074231] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffa19e0081b000 ... [ 0.075000] RIP: 0010:persistent_ram_new+0x1f8/0x39f ...

Jens Axboe authored
The supported added for zones in null_blk seem to assume that only rq based operation is possible. But this depends on the queue_mode setting, if this is set to 0, then cmd->bio is what we need to be operating on. Right now any attempt to load null_blk with queue_mode=0 will insta-crash, since cmd->rq is NULL and null_handle_cmd() assumes it to always be set. Make the zoned code deal with bio's instead, or pass in the appropriate sector/nr_sectors instead.

So on systems with fragmented memory, large allocations may fail (eg. the qethqoat tool by default uses 132KB). Solve this issue by using vzalloc, backing the allocation with non-contiguous memory.

When calling request_firmware_into_buf() with the FW_OPT_NOCACHE flag it is expected that firmware is loaded into buffer from memory. But inside alloc_lookup_fw_priv every new firmware that is loaded is added to the firmware cache (fwc) list head. So if any driver requests a firmware that is already loaded the code iterates over the above mentioned list and it can end up giving a pointer to other device driver's firmware buffer. Also the existing copy may either be modified by drivers, remote processors or even freed. This causes a potential security issue with batched requests when using request_firmware_into_buf. Fix alloc_lookup_fw_priv to not add to the fwc head list if FW_OPT_NOCACHE is set, and also don't do the lookup in the list.

For unsupported device types, the vmbus channel ringbuffer is never initialized, and therefore reading the sysfs files will return garbage or cause a kernel OOPS.

In case of error, the function dfl_fme_create_region() returns ERR_PTR() and never returns NULL. The NULL test in the return value check should be replaced with IS_ERR().

val is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. This issue was detected with the help of Smatch: drivers/misc/hmc6352.c:54 compass_store() warn: potential spectre issue 'map' [r] Fix this by sanitizing val before using it to index map Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].
