commit ab676b7d upstream. As pointed by recent post[1] on exploiting DRAM physical imperfection, /proc/PID/pagemap exposes sensitive information which can be used to do attacks.

commit 30a22c21 upstream. commit 6ae9200f ("enlarge console.name") increased the storage for the console name to 16 bytes, but not the corresponding struct console_cmdline::name storage. Console names longer than 8 bytes cause read beyond end-of-string and failure to match console; I'm not sure if there are other unexpected consequences.

Stable commit "core, nfqueue, openvswitch: Orphan frags in skb_zerocopy and handle errors", upstream commit 36d5fe6a, was not correctly backported and missed to change a const 'from' parameter to non-const.

commit b815fc12 upstream. This fixes a oops due to a double list add when adding a reject PDU for iscsit_allocate_iovecs allocation failures. The cmd has already been added to the conn_cmd_list in iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd, so this has us call iscsit_reject_cmd. Note that for ERL0 the reject PDU is not actually sent, so this patch is not completely tested. Just verified we do not oops. The problem is the add reject functions return -1 which is returned all the way up to iscsi_target_rx_thread which for ERL0 will drop the connection.

commit 227a4fd8 upstream. When a device with an isochronous endpoint is plugged into the Intel xHCI host controller, and the driver submits multiple frames per URB, the xHCI driver will set the Block Event Interrupt (BEI) flag on all but the last TD for the URB. This causes the host controller to place an event on the event ring, but not send an interrupt. When the last TD for the URB completes, BEI is cleared, and we get an interrupt for the whole URB. However, under Intel xHCI host controllers, if the event ring is full of events from transfers with BEI set, an "Event Ring is Full" event will be posted to the last entry of the event ring, but no interrupt is generated. Host will cease all transfer and command executions and wait until software completes handling the pending events in the event ring. That means xHC stops, but event of "event ring is full" is not notified. As the result, the xHC looks like dead to user. This patch is to apply XHCI_AVOID_BEI quirk to Intel xHC devices. And it should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that contains the commit 69e848c2 ("Intel xhci: Support EHCI/xHCI port switching.").

commit c7e8bdf5 upstream. Fix a bug that leads to showing the name and description of C-state C0 as "<null>" in sysfs after the ACPI C-states changed (e.g. after AC->DC or DC->AC transition). The function poll_idle_init() in drivers/cpuidle/driver.c initializes the state 0 during cpuidle_register_driver(), so we better do not overwrite it again with '\0' during acpi_processor_cst_has_changed().

commit 02d88b73 upstream. In omap_dma_start_desc the vdesc->node is removed from the virt-dma framework managed lists (to be precise from the desc_issued list). If a terminate_all comes before the transfer finishes the omap_desc will not be freed up because it is not in any of the lists and we stopped the DMA channel so the transfer will not going to complete. There is no special sequence for leaking memory when using cyclic (audio) transfer: with every start and stop of a cyclic transfer the driver leaks struct omap_desc worth of memory. Free up the allocated memory directly in omap_dma_terminate_all() since the framework will not going to do that for us.

commit c72efb65 upstream. From 1ebf33901ecc75d9496862dceb1ef0377980587c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 00:08:19 -0400 2f800fbd ("writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty") introduced account_page_redirty() which reverts stat updates for a redirtied page, making BDI_DIRTIED no longer monotonically increasing. bdi_update_write_bandwidth() uses the delta in BDI_DIRTIED as the basis for bandwidth calculation. While unlikely, since the above patch, the newer value may be lower than the recorded past value and underflow the bandwidth calculation leading to a wild result. Fix it by subtracing min of the old and new values when calculating delta. AFAIK, there hasn't been any report of it happening but the resulting erratic behavior would be non-critical and temporary, so it's possible that the issue is happening without being reported. The risk of the fix is very low, so tagged for -stable.

commit 7d70e154 upstream. global_update_bandwidth() uses static variable update_time as the timestamp for the last update but forgets to initialize it to INITIALIZE_JIFFIES. This means that global_dirty_limit will be 5 mins into the future on 32bit and some large amount jiffies into the past on 64bit. This isn't critical as the only effect is that global_dirty_limit won't be updated for the first 5 mins after booting on 32bit machines, especially given the auxiliary nature of global_dirty_limit's role - protecting against global dirty threshold's sudden dips; however, it does lead to unintended suboptimal behavior.

commit 9c8928f5 upstream. The assumption before this patch was that we don't need to run again the INIT firmware after the system booted. The INIT firmware runs calibrations which impact the physical layer's behavior. Users reported that it may be helpful to run these calibrations again every time the interface is brought up. The penatly is minimal, since the calibrations run fast.

commit 8494057a upstream. Properly verify that the resulting page aligned end address is larger than both the start address and the length of the memory area requested. Both the start and length arguments for ib_umem_get are controlled by the user. A misbehaving user can provide values which will cause an integer overflow when calculating the page aligned end address. This overflow can cause also miscalculation of the number of pages mapped, and additional logic issues.

Commit 355a901e ("tcp: make connect() mem charging friendly") changed tcp_send_syn_data() to perform an open-coded copy of the 'syn' skb rather than using skb_copy_expand(). The open-coded copy does not cover the skb_shared_info::gso_segs field, so in the new skb it is left set to 0. When this commit was backported into stable branches between 3.10.y and 3.16.7-ckty inclusive, it triggered the BUG() in tcp_transmit_skb(). Since Linux 3.18 the GSO segment count is kept in the tcp_skb_cb::tcp_gso_segs field and tcp_send_syn_data() does copy the tcp_skb_cb structure to the new skb, so mainline and newer stable branches are not affected. Set skb_shared_info::gso_segs to the correct value of 1.

commit cc7016ab upstream. Some BIOS version of Fujitsu Lifebook T731 seems to set up the headphone pin (0x21) without the assoc number 0x0f while it's set only to the output on the docking port (0x1a). With the recent commit [03ad6a8c: ALSA: hda - Fix "PCM" name being used on one DAC when there are two DACs], this resulted in the weird mixer element mapping where the headphone on the laptop is assigned as a shared volume with the speaker and the docking port is assigned as an individual headphone. This patch improves the situation by correcting the headphone pin config to the more appropriate value.

commit 87f966d9 upstream. On a MIPS Malta board, tons of fifo underflow errors have been observed when using u-boot as bootloader instead of YAMON. The reason for that is that YAMON used to set the pcnet device to SRAM mode but u-boot does not. As a result, the default Tx threshold (64 bytes) is now too small to keep the fifo relatively used and it can result to Tx fifo underflow errors. As a result of which, it's best to setup the SRAM on supported controllers so we can always use the NOUFLO bit.

commit bb344ca5 upstream. Commit 746c9e9f "of/base: Fix PowerPC address parsing hack" limited the applicability of the workaround whereby a missing ranges is treated as an empty ranges. This workaround was hiding a bug in the etsec2 device tree nodes, which have children with reg, but did not have ranges.

commit 98cf21c6 upstream. Fix B-tree corruption when a new record is inserted at position 0 in the node in hfs_brec_insert(). In this case a hfs_brec_update_parent() is called to update the parent index node (if exists) and it is passed hfs_find_data with a search_key containing a newly inserted key instead of the key to be updated. This results in an inconsistent index node. The bug reproduces on my machine after an extents overflow record for the catalog file (CNID=4) is inserted into the extents overflow B-tree. Because of a low (reserved) value of CNID=4, it has to become the first record in the first leaf node. The resulting first leaf node is correct: ---------------------------------------------------- | key0.CNID=4 | key1.CNID=123 | key2.CNID=456, ... | ---------------------------------------------------- But the parent index key0 still contains the previous key CNID=123: ----------------------- | key0.CNID=123 | ... | ----------------------- A change in hfs_brec_insert() makes hfs_brec_update_parent() work correctly by preventing it from getting fd->record=-1 value from __hfs_brec_find(). Along the way, I removed duplicate code with unification of the if condition. The resulting code is equivalent to the original code because node is never 0. Also hfs_brec_update_parent() will now return an error after getting a negative fd->record value. However, the return value of hfs_brec_update_parent() is not checked anywhere in the file and I'm leaving it unchanged by this patch. brec.c lacks error checking after some other calls too, but this issue is of less importance than the one being fixed by this patch.
