      parisc: Filter out spurious interrupts in PA-RISC irq handler · 634a6a28
      Helge Deller authored
      commit b1b4e435 upstream.
      
      When detecting a serial port on newer PA-RISC machines (with iosapic) we have a
      long way to go to find the right IRQ line, registering it, then registering the
      serial port and the irq handler for the serial port. During this phase spurious
      interrupts for the serial port may happen which then crashes the kernel because
      the action handler might not have been set up yet.
      
      So, basically it's a race condition between the serial port hardware and the
      CPU which sets up the necessary fields in the irq sructs. The main reason for
      this race is, that we unmask the serial port irqs too early without having set
      up everything properly before (which isn't easily possible because we need the
      IRQ number to register the serial ports).
      
      This patch is a work-around for this problem. It adds checks to the CPU irq
      handler to verify if the IRQ action field has been initialized already. If not,
      we just skip this interrupt (which isn't critical for a serial port at bootup).
      The real fix would probably involve rewriting all PA-RISC specific IRQ code
      (for CPU, IOSAPIC, GSC and EISA) to use IRQ domains with proper parenting of
      the irq chips and proper irq enabling along this line.
      
      This bug has been in the PA-RISC port since the beginning, but the crashes
      happened very rarely with currently used hardware.  But on the latest machine
      which I bought (a C8000 workstation), which uses the fastest CPUs (4 x PA8900,
      1GHz) and which has the largest possible L1 cache size (64MB each), the kernel
      crashed at every boot because of this race. So, without this patch the machine
      would currently be unuseable.
      
      For the record, here is the flow logic:
      1. serial_init_chip() in 8250_gsc.c calls iosapic_serial_irq().
      2. iosapic_serial_irq() calls txn_alloc_irq() to find the irq.
      3. iosapic_serial_irq() calls cpu_claim_irq() to register the CPU irq
      4. cpu_claim_irq() unmasks the CPU irq (which it shouldn't!)
      5. serial_init_chip() then registers the 8250 port.
      Problems:
      - In step 4 the CPU irq shouldn't have been registered yet, but after step 5
      - If serial irq happens between 4 and 5 have finished, the kernel will crash

      fib_rules: fix fib rule dumps across multiple skbs · de090271
      Wilson Kok authored
      commit 41fc0143 upstream.
      
      dump_rules returns skb length and not error.
      But when family == AF_UNSPEC, the caller of dump_rules
      assumes that it returns an error. Hence, when family == AF_UNSPEC,
      we continue trying to dump on -EMSGSIZE errors resulting in
      incorrect dump idx carried between skbs belonging to the same dump.
      This results in fib rule dump always only dumping rules that fit
      into the first skb.
      
      This patch fixes dump_rules to return error so that we exit correctly
      and idx is correctly maintained between skbs that are part of the
      same dump.

      openvswitch: Zero flows on allocation. · 6d2b5595
      Jesse Gross authored
      commit ae5f2fb1 upstream.
      
      When support for megaflows was introduced, OVS needed to start
      installing flows with a mask applied to them. Since masking is an
      expensive operation, OVS also had an optimization that would only
      take the parts of the flow keys that were covered by a non-zero
      mask. The values stored in the remaining pieces should not matter
      because they are masked out.
      
      While this works fine for the purposes of matching (which must always
      look at the mask), serialization to netlink can be problematic. Since
      the flow and the mask are serialized separately, the uninitialized
      portions of the flow can be encoded with whatever values happen to be
      present.
      
      In terms of functionality, this has little effect since these fields
      will be masked out by definition. However, it leaks kernel memory to
      userspace, which is a potential security vulnerability. It is also
      possible that other code paths could look at the masked key and get
      uninitialized data, although this does not currently appear to be an
      issue in practice.
      
      This removes the mask optimization for flows that are being installed.
      This was always intended to be the case as the mask optimizations were
      really targetting per-packet flow operations.

      sctp: fix race on protocol/netns initialization · eb084bd1
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
      commit 8e2d61e0 upstream.
      
      Consider sctp module is unloaded and is being requested because an user
      is creating a sctp socket.
      
      During initialization, sctp will add the new protocol type and then
      initialize pernet subsys:
      
              status = sctp_v4_protosw_init();
              if (status)
                      goto err_protosw_init;
      
              status = sctp_v6_protosw_init();
              if (status)
                      goto err_v6_protosw_init;
      
              status = register_pernet_subsys(&sctp_net_ops);
      
      The problem is that after those calls to sctp_v{4,6}_protosw_init(), it
      is possible for userspace to create SCTP sockets like if the module is
      already fully loaded. If that happens, one of the possible effects is
      that we will have readers for net->sctp.local_addr_list list earlier
      than expected and sctp_net_init() does not take precautions while
      dealing with that list, leading to a potential panic but not limited to
      that, as sctp_sock_init() will copy a bunch of blank/partially
      initialized values from net->sctp.
      
      The race happens like this:
      
           CPU 0                           |  CPU 1
        socket()                           |

           list_for_each_entry_rcu(        |
              answer, &inetsw[sock->type], |
              list) {                      |   inet_create
            /* no hits */                  |
           if (unlikely(err)) {            |
            ...                            |

            /* socket creation is blocked  |
             * the module is fully loaded  |
             */                            |

                             last_perm);   |
                                           |  list_for_each_entry_rcu(
                                           |     answer, &inetsw[sock->type],
              sctp_v6_protosw_init         |     list) {
                                           |     /* hit, so assumes protocol
                                           |      * is already loaded
                                           |      */
                                           |  /* socket creation continues
                                           |   * before netns is initialized
                                           |   */
              register_pernet_subsys       |
      
      Simply inverting the initialization order between
      register_pernet_subsys() and sctp_v4_protosw_init() is not possible
      because register_pernet_subsys() will create a control sctp socket, so
      the protocol must be already visible by then. Deferring the socket
      creation to a work-queue is not good specially because we loose the
      ability to handle its errors.
      
      So, as suggested by Vlad, the fix is to split netns initialization in
      two moments: defaults and control socket, so that the defaults are
      already loaded by when we register the protocol, while control socket
      initialization is kept at the same moment it is today.

      netlink, mmap: transform mmap skb into full skb on taps · ce90dd09
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      commit 1853c949 upstream.
      
      Ken-ichirou reported that running netlink in mmap mode for receive in
      combination with nlmon will throw a NULL pointer dereference in
      __kfree_skb() on nlmon_xmit(), in my case I can also trigger an "unable
      to handle kernel paging request". The problem is the skb_clone() in
      __netlink_deliver_tap_skb() for skbs that are mmaped.
      
      I.e. the cloned skb doesn't have a destructor, whereas the mmap netlink
      skb has it pointed to netlink_skb_destructor(), set in the handler
      netlink_ring_setup_skb(). There, skb->head is being set to NULL, so
      that in such cases, __kfree_skb() doesn't perform a skb_release_data()
      via skb_release_all(), where skb->head is possibly being freed through
      kfree(head) into slab allocator, although netlink mmap skb->head points
      to the mmap buffer. Similarly, the same has to be done also for large
      netlink skbs where the data area is vmalloced. Therefore, as discussed,
      make a copy for these rather rare cases for now. This fixes the issue
      on my and Ken-ichirou's test-cases.

      net/ipv6: Correct PIM6 mrt_lock handling · 0fdc68d7
      Richard Laing authored
      commit 25b4a44c upstream.
      
      In the IPv6 multicast routing code the mrt_lock was not being released
      correctly in the MFC iterator, as a result adding or deleting a MIF would
      cause a hang because the mrt_lock could not be acquired.
      
      This fix is a copy of the code for the IPv4 case and ensures that the lock
      is released correctly.

      UBI: block: Add missing cache flushes · afdef6be
      Kevin Cernekee authored
      commit 98fb1ffd upstream.
      
      Block drivers are responsible for calling flush_dcache_page() on each
      BIO request. This operation keeps the I$ coherent with the D$ on
      architectures that don't have hardware coherency support. Without this
      flush, random crashes are seen when executing user programs from an ext4
      filesystem backed by a ubiblock device.
      
      This patch is based on the change implemented in commit 2d4dc890
      ("block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a
      request's pages").

      There was no verification that an underlying transport exists when creating

      It might happen on sockets that weren't properly bound before attempting to

      powerpc/MSI: Fix race condition in tearing down MSI interrupts · 18a7214f
      Paul Mackerras authored
      commit e297c939 upstream.
      
      This fixes a race which can result in the same virtual IRQ number
      being assigned to two different MSI interrupts.  The most visible
      consequence of that is usually a warning and stack trace from the
      sysfs code about an attempt to create a duplicate entry in sysfs.
      
      The race happens when one CPU (say CPU 0) is disposing of an MSI
      while another CPU (say CPU 1) is setting up an MSI.  CPU 0 calls
      (for example) pnv_teardown_msi_irqs(), which calls
      msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() to indicate that the MSI (i.e. its
      hardware IRQ number) is no longer in use.  Then, before CPU 0 gets
      to calling irq_dispose_mapping() to free up the virtal IRQ number,
      CPU 1 comes in and calls msi_bitmap_alloc_hwirqs() to allocate an
      MSI, and gets the same hardware IRQ number that CPU 0 just freed.
      CPU 1 then calls irq_create_mapping() to get a virtual IRQ number,
      which sees that there is currently a mapping for that hardware IRQ
      number and returns the corresponding virtual IRQ number (which is
      the same virtual IRQ number that CPU 0 was using).  CPU 0 then
      calls irq_dispose_mapping() and frees that virtual IRQ number.
      Now, if another CPU comes along and calls irq_create_mapping(), it
      is likely to get the virtual IRQ number that was just freed,
      resulting in the same virtual IRQ number apparently being used for
      two different hardware interrupts.
      
      To fix this race, we just move the call to msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs()
      to after the call to irq_dispose_mapping().  Since virq_to_hw()
      doesn't work for the virtual IRQ number after irq_dispose_mapping()
      has been called, we need to call it before irq_dispose_mapping() and
      remember the result for the msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() call.
      
      The pattern of calling msi_bitmap_free_hwirqs() before
      irq_dispose_mapping() appears in 5 places under arch/powerpc, and
      appears to have originated in commit 05af7bd2 ("[POWERPC] MPIC
      U3/U4 MSI backend") from 2007.

      ext4: fix loss of delalloc extent info in ext4_zero_range() · 125fa8e2
      Eric Whitney authored
      commit 94426f4b upstream.
      
      In ext4_zero_range(), removing a file's entire block range from the
      extent status tree removes all records of that file's delalloc extents.
      The delalloc accounting code uses this information, and its loss can
      then lead to accounting errors and kernel warnings at writeback time and
      subsequent file system damage.  This is most noticeable on bigalloc
      file systems where code in ext4_ext_map_blocks() handles cases where
      delalloc extents share clusters with a newly allocated extent.
      
      Because we're not deleting a block range and are correctly updating the
      status of its associated extent, there is no need to remove anything
      from the extent status tree.
      
      When this patch is combined with an unrelated bug fix for
      ext4_zero_range(), kernel warnings and e2fsck errors reported during
      xfstests runs on bigalloc filesystems are greatly reduced without
      introducing regressions on other xfstests-bld test scenarios.

      perf/x86: Fix copy_from_user_nmi() return if range is not ok · 324e82a3
      Yann Droneaud authored
      commit ebf2d268 upstream.
      
      Commit 0a196848 ("perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user default"),
      changes copy_from_user_nmi() to return the number of
      remaining bytes so that it behave like copy_from_user().
      
      Unfortunately, when the range is outside of the process
      memory, the return value  is still the number of byte
      copied, eg. 0, instead of the remaining bytes.
      
      As all users of copy_from_user_nmi() were modified as
      part of commit 0a196848, the function should be
      fixed to return the total number of bytes if range is
      not correct.
