commit 9e0daff3 upstream. The DS driver registers as a subsys_initcall() but this can be too early, in particular this risks registering before we've had a chance to allocate and setup module_kset in kernel/params.c which is performed also as a subsyts_initcall(). Register DS using device_initcall() insteal. Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 33b69bf8 upstream. Do not close protocol driver until device has been unregistered. This fixes a race between tty_close and hci_dev_open which can result in a NULL-pointer dereference. The line discipline closes the protocol driver while we may still have hci_dev_open sleeping on the req_lock mutex resulting in a NULL-pointer dereference when lock is acquired and hci_init_req called. Bug is 100% reproducible using hciattach and a disconnected serial port: 0. # hciattach -n ttyO1 any noflow 1. hci_dev_open called from hci_power_on grabs req lock 2. hci_init_req executes but device fails to initialise (times out eventually) 3. hci_dev_open is called from hci_sock_ioctl and sleeps on req lock 4. hci_uart_tty_close detaches protocol driver and cancels init req 5. hci_dev_open (1) releases req lock 6. hci_dev_open (3) grabs req lock, calls hci_init_req, which triggers oops when request is prepared in hci_uart_send_frame [ 137.201263] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000028 [ 137.209838] pgd = c0004000 [ 137.212677] [00000028] *pgd=00000000 [ 137.216430] Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] [ 137.220642] Modules linked in: [ 137.223846] CPU: 0 Tainted: G W (3.3.0-rc6-dirty #406) [ 137.230529] PC is at __lock_acquire+0x5c/0x1ab0 [ 137.235290] LR is at lock_acquire+0x9c/0x128 [ 137.239776] pc : [<c0071490>] lr : [<c00733f8>] psr: 20000093 [ 137.239776] sp : cf869dd8 ip : c0529554 fp : c051c730 [ 137.251800] r10: 00000000 r9 : cf8673c0 r8 : 00000080 [ 137.257293] r7 : 00000028 r6 : 00000002 r5 : 00000000 r4 : c053fd70 [ 137.264129] r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000000 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 00000001 [ 137.270965] Flags: nzCv IRQs off FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment kernel [ 137.278717] Control: 10c5387d Table: 8f0f4019 DAC: 00000015 [ 137.284729] Process kworker/u:1 (pid: 7, stack limit = 0xcf8682e8) [ 137.291229] Stack: (0xcf869dd8 to 0xcf86a000) [ 137.295776] 9dc0: c0529554 00000000 [ 137.304351] 9de0: cf8673c0 cf868000 d03ea1ef cf868000 000001ef 00000470 00000000 00000002 [ 137.312927] 9e00: cf8673c0 00000001 c051c730 c00716ec 0000000c 00000440 c0529554 00000001 [ 137.321533] 9e20: c051c730 cf868000 d03ea1f3 00000000 c053b978 00000000 00000028 cf868000 [ 137.330078] 9e40: 00000000 00000000 00000002 00000000 00000000 c00733f8 00000002 00000080 [ 137.338684] 9e60: 00000000 c02a1d50 00000000 00000001 60000013 c0969a1c 60000093 c053b96c [ 137.347259] 9e80: 00000002 00000018 20000013 c02a1d50 cf0ac000 00000000 00000002 cf868000 [ 137.355834] 9ea0: 00000089 c0374130 00000002 00000000 c02a1d50 cf0ac000 0000000c cf0fc540 [ 137.364410] 9ec0: 00000018 c02a1d50 cf0fc540 00000000 cf0fc540 c0282238 c028220c cf178d80 [ 137.372985] 9ee0: 127525d8 c02821cc 9a1fa451 c032727c 9a1fa451 127525d8 cf0fc540 cf0ac4ec [ 137.381561] 9f00: cf0ac000 cf0fc540 cf0ac584 c03285f4 c0328580 cf0ac4ec cf85c740 c05510cc [ 137.390136] 9f20: ce825400 c004c914 00000002 00000000 c004c884 ce8254f5 cf869f48 00000000 [ 137.398712] 9f40: c0328580 ce825415 c0a7f914 c061af64 00000000 c048cf3c cf8673c0 cf85c740 [ 137.407287] 9f60: c05510cc c051a66c c05510ec c05510c4 cf85c750 cf868000 00000089 c004d6ac [ 137.415863] 9f80: 00000000 c0073d14 00000001 cf853ed8 cf85c740 c004d558 00000013 00000000 [ 137.424438] 9fa0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 c00516b0 00000000 00000000 cf85c740 00000000 [ 137.433013] 9fc0: 00000001 dead4ead ffffffff ffffffff c0551674 00000000 00000000 c0450aa4 [ 137.441589] 9fe0: cf869fe0 cf869fe0 cf853ed8 c005162c c0013b30 c0013b30 00ffff00 00ffff00 [ 137.450164] [<c0071490>] (__lock_acquire+0x5c/0x1ab0) from [<c00733f8>] (lock_acquire+0x9c/0x128) [ 137.459503] [<c00733f8>] (lock_acquire+0x9c/0x128) from [<c0374130>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x44/0x58) [ 137.469360] [<c0374130>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x44/0x58) from [<c02a1d50>] (skb_queue_tail+0x18/0x48) [ 137.479339] [<c02a1d50>] (skb_queue_tail+0x18/0x48) from [<c0282238>] (h4_enqueue+0x2c/0x34) [ 137.488189] [<c0282238>] (h4_enqueue+0x2c/0x34) from [<c02821cc>] (hci_uart_send_frame+0x34/0x68) [ 137.497497] [<c02821cc>] (hci_uart_send_frame+0x34/0x68) from [<c032727c>] (hci_send_frame+0x50/0x88) [ 137.507171] [<c032727c>] (hci_send_frame+0x50/0x88) from [<c03285f4>] (hci_cmd_work+0x74/0xd4) [ 137.516204] [<c03285f4>] (hci_cmd_work+0x74/0xd4) from [<c004c914>] (process_one_work+0x1a0/0x4ec) [ 137.525604] [<c004c914>] (process_one_work+0x1a0/0x4ec) from [<c004d6ac>] (worker_thread+0x154/0x344) [ 137.535278] [<c004d6ac>] (worker_thread+0x154/0x344) from [<c00516b0>] (kthread+0x84/0x90) [ 137.543975] [<c00516b0>] (kthread+0x84/0x90) from [<c0013b30>] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8) [ 137.552734] Code: e59f4e5c e5941000 e3510000 0a000031 (e5971000) [ 137.559234] ---[ end trace 1b75b31a2719ed1e ]--- Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <jhovold@gmail.com> Acked-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>

commit 9993bc63 upstream. When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However, when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is enough room to store the final answer. We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing the multiplication separately on the two components. Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous fix in __cycles_2_ns().

commit d97d32ed upstream. When an IO error happens during inode deletion run from xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() filesystem gets shutdown. Thus any subsequent attempt to read buffers fails. Code in xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() does not count with the fact that read of a buffer which was read a while ago can really fail which results in the oops on agi = XFS_BUF_TO_AGI(agibp); Fix the problem by cleaning up the buffer handling in xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() as suggested by Dave Chinner. We release buffer lock but keep buffer reference to AG buffer. That is enough for buffer to stay pinned in memory and we don't have to call xfs_read_agi() all the time.

commit 31d4f3a2 upstream. Explicitly test for an extent whose length is zero, and flag that as a corrupted extent. This avoids a kernel BUG_ON assertion failure. Tested: Without this patch, the file system image found in tests/f_ext_zero_len/image.gz in the latest e2fsprogs sources causes a kernel panic. With this patch, an ext4 file system error is noted instead, and the file system is marked as being corrupted. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42859Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>

commit 540a0f75 upstream. The problem is that for the case of priority queues, we have to assume that __rpc_remove_wait_queue_priority will move new elements from the tk_wait.links lists into the queue->tasks[] list. We therefore cannot use list_for_each_entry_safe() on queue->tasks[], since that will skip these new tasks that __rpc_remove_wait_queue_priority is adding. Without this fix, rpc_wake_up and rpc_wake_up_status will both fail to wake up all functions on priority wait queues, which can result in some nasty hangs.

commit a078c6d0 upstream. 'long secs' is passed as divisor to div_s64, which accepts a 32bit divisor. On 64bit machines that value is trimmed back from 8 bytes back to 4, causing a divide by zero when the number is bigger than (1 << 32) - 1 and all 32 lower bits are 0. Use div64_long() instead.

commit a7f4255f upstream. Commit f0fbf0ab ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit. The reason is that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and delay_64.c. Though the subtle difference of the result was: static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops) { - unsigned bclock, now; + unsigned long bclock, now; Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64 bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when bclock is read, because the following check if ((now - bclock) >= loops) break; evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0 because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in 0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops value. That explains Tvortkos observation: "Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us." Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32 and 64 bit.

commit 79549c6d upstream keyctl_session_to_parent(task) sets ->replacement_session_keyring, it should be processed and cleared by key_replace_session_keyring(). However, this task can fork before it notices TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME and the new child gets the bogus ->replacement_session_keyring copied by dup_task_struct(). This is obviously wrong and, if nothing else, this leads to put_cred(already_freed_cred). change copy_creds() to clear this member. If copy_process() fails before this point the wrong ->replacement_session_keyring doesn't matter, exit_creds() won't be called.

commit 1bb57e94 upstream The dl2k driver's rio_ioctl call has a few issues: - No permissions checking - Implements SIOCGMIIREG and SIOCGMIIREG using the SIOCDEVPRIVATE numbers - Has a few ioctls that may have been used for debugging at one point but have no place in the kernel proper. This patch removes all but the MII ioctls, renumbers them to use the standard ones, and adds the proper permission check for SIOCSMIIREG. We can also get rid of the dl2k-specific struct mii_data in favor of the generic struct mii_ioctl_data. Since we have the phyid on hand, we can add the SIOCGMIIPHY ioctl too. Most of the MII code for the driver could probably be converted to use the generic MII library but I don't have a device to test the results.

commit 90481622 upstream hugetlbfs_{get,put}_quota() are badly named. They don't interact with the general quota handling code, and they don't much resemble its behaviour. Rather than being about maintaining limits on on-disk block usage by particular users, they are instead about maintaining limits on in-memory page usage (including anonymous MAP_PRIVATE copied-on-write pages) associated with a particular hugetlbfs filesystem instance. Worse, they work by having callbacks to the hugetlbfs filesystem code from the low-level page handling code, in particular from free_huge_page(). This is a layering violation of itself, but more importantly, if the kernel does a get_user_pages() on hugepages (which can happen from KVM amongst others), then the free_huge_page() can be delayed until after the associated inode has already been freed. If an unmount occurs at the wrong time, even the hugetlbfs superblock where the "quota" limits are stored may have been freed. Andrew Barry proposed a patch to fix this by having hugepages, instead of storing a pointer to their address_space and reaching the superblock from there, had the hugepages store pointers directly to the superblock, bumping the reference count as appropriate to avoid it being freed. Andrew Morton rejected that version, however, on the grounds that it made the existing layering violation worse. This is a reworked version of Andrew's patch, which removes the extra, and some of the existing, layering violation. It works by introducing the concept of a hugepage "subpool" at the lower hugepage mm layer - that is a finite logical pool of hugepages to allocate from. hugetlbfs now creates a subpool for each filesystem instance with a page limit set, and a pointer to the subpool gets added to each allocated hugepage, instead of the address_space pointer used now. The subpool has its own lifetime and is only freed once all pages in it _and_ all other references to it (i.e. superblocks) are gone. subpools are optional - a NULL subpool pointer is taken by the code to mean that no subpool limits are in effect. Previous discussion of this bug found in: "Fix refcounting in hugetlbfs quota handling.".

commit b52a360b upstream Fixes a possible memory corruption when the link is larger than MAXPATHLEN and XFS_DEBUG is not enabled. This also remove the S_ISLNK assert, since the inode mode is checked previously in xfs_readlink_by_handle() and via VFS. Updated to address concerns raised by Ben Hutchings about the loose attention paid to 32- vs 64-bit values, and the lack of handling a potentially negative pathlen value: - Changed type of "pathlen" to be xfs_fsize_t, to match that of ip->i_d.di_size - Added checking for a negative pathlen to the too-long pathlen test, and generalized the message that gets reported in that case to reflect the change As a result, if a negative pathlen were encountered, this function would return EFSCORRUPTED (and would fail an assertion for a debug build)--just as would a too-long pathlen.

commit 3e515705 upstream If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then irqchip_in_kernel() and vcpu->arch.apic will be inconsistent, leading to potential NULL pointer dereferences. Fix by: - ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called - ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without kvm->lock held.

commit c2226fc9 upstream On hosts without this patch, 32bit guests will crash (and 64bit guests may behave in a wrong way) for example by simply executing following nasm-demo-application: [bits 32] global _start SECTION .text _start: syscall (I tested it with winxp and linux - both always crashed) Disassembly of section .text: 00000000 <_start>: 0: 0f 05 syscall The reason seems a missing "invalid opcode"-trap (int6) for the syscall opcode "0f05", which is not available on Intel CPUs within non-longmodes, as also on some AMD CPUs within legacy-mode. (depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid) Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple faults and finally crashs. Depending on the architecture (AMD or Intel) pretended by guests, various checks according to vendor's documentation are implemented to overcome the current issue and behave like the CPUs physical counterparts.

commit 3d27e23b upstream Only allow KVM device assignment to attach to devices which: - Are not bridges - Have BAR resources (assume others are special devices) - The user has permissions to use Assigning a bridge is a configuration error, it's not supported, and typically doesn't result in the behavior the user is expecting anyway. Devices without BAR resources are typically chipset components that also don't have host drivers. We don't want users to hold such devices captive or cause system problems by fencing them off into an iommu domain. We determine "permission to use" by testing whether the user has access to the PCI sysfs resource files. By default a normal user will not have access to these files, so it provides a good indication that an administration agent has granted the user access to the device.
