      media: lirc: LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION should return microseconds · c7c6f63d
      Sean Young authored 
      commit 9f5039ba upstream.

Since commit e8f48188 ("[media] lirc: advertise
LIRC_CAN_GET_REC_RESOLUTION and improve") lircd uses the ioctl
LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION to determine the shortest pulse or space that
the hardware can detect. This breaks decoding in lirc because lircd
expects the answer in microseconds, but nanoseconds is returned.

      mm, mprotect: flush TLB if potentially racing with a parallel reclaim leaving stale TLB entries · f1181047
      Mel Gorman authored 
      commit 3ea27719 upstream.

Stable note for 4.4: The upstream patch patches madvise(MADV_FREE) but 4.4
	does not have support for that feature. The changelog is left
	as-is but the hunk related to madvise is omitted from the backport.

Nadav Amit identified a theoritical race between page reclaim and
mprotect due to TLB flushes being batched outside of the PTL being held.

He described the race as follows:

        CPU0                            CPU1
        ----                            ----
                                        user accesses memory using RW PTE
                                        [PTE now cached in TLB]
        try_to_unmap_one()
        ==> ptep_get_and_clear()
        ==> set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending()
                                        mprotect(addr, PROT_READ)
                                        ==> change_pte_range()
                                        ==> [ PTE non-present - no flush ]

                                        user writes using cached RW PTE
        ...

        try_to_unmap_flush()

The same type of race exists for reads when protecting for PROT_NONE and
also exists for operations that can leave an old TLB entry behind such
as munmap, mremap and madvise.

For some operations like mprotect, it's not necessarily a data integrity
issue but it is a correctness issue as there is a window where an
mprotect that limits access still allows access.  For munmap, it's
potentially a data integrity issue although the race is massive as an
munmap, mmap and return to userspace must all complete between the
window when reclaim drops the PTL and flushes the TLB.  However, it's
theoritically possible so handle this issue by flushing the mm if
reclaim is potentially currently batching TLB flushes.

Other instances where a flush is required for a present pte should be ok
as either the page lock is held preventing parallel reclaim or a page
reference count is elevated preventing a parallel free leading to
corruption.  In the case of page_mkclean there isn't an obvious path
that userspace could take advantage of without using the operations that
are guarded by this patch.  Other users such as gup as a race with
reclaim looks just at PTEs.  huge page variants should be ok as they
don't race with reclaim.  mincore only looks at PTEs.  userfault also
should be ok as if a parallel reclaim takes place, it will either fault
the page back in or read some of the data before the flush occurs
triggering a fault.

Note that a variant of this patch was acked by Andy Lutomirski but this
was for the x86 parts on top of his PCID work which didn't make the 4.13
merge window as expected.  His ack is dropped from this version and
there will be a follow-on patch on top of PCID that will include his
ack.

      iser-target: Avoid isert_conn->cm_id dereference in isert_login_recv_done · 9745cbec
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      commit fce50a2f upstream.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference in isert_login_recv_done()
of isert_conn->cm_id due to isert_cma_handler() -> isert_connect_error()
resetting isert_conn->cm_id = NULL during a failed login attempt.

As per Sagi, we will always see the completion of all recv wrs posted
on the qp (given that we assigned a ->done handler), this is a FLUSH
error completion, we just don't get to verify that because we deref
NULL before.

The issue here, was the assumption that dereferencing the connection
cm_id is always safe, which is not true since:

    commit 4a579da2
    Author: Sagi Grimberg <sagig@mellanox.com>
    Date:   Sun Mar 29 15:52:04 2015 +0300

         iser-target: Fix possible deadlock in RDMA_CM connection error

As I see it, we have a direct reference to the isert_device from
isert_conn which is the one-liner fix that we actually need like
we do in isert_rdma_read_done() and isert_rdma_write_done().

      iscsi-target: Fix delayed logout processing greater than SECONDS_FOR_LOGOUT_COMP · ae059833
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      commit 105fa2f4 upstream.

This patch fixes a BUG() in iscsit_close_session() that could be
triggered when iscsit_logout_post_handler() execution from within
tx thread context was not run for more than SECONDS_FOR_LOGOUT_COMP
(15 seconds), and the TCP connection didn't already close before
then forcing tx thread context to automatically exit.

This would manifest itself during explicit logout as:

[33206.974254] 1 connection(s) still exist for iSCSI session to iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:3f5523242179
[33206.980184] INFO: NMI handler (kgdb_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 2100.772 msecs
[33209.078643] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[33209.078646] kernel BUG at drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target.c:4346!

Normally when explicit logout attempt fails, the tx thread context
exits and iscsit_close_connection() from rx thread context does the
extra cleanup once it detects conn->conn_logout_remove has not been
cleared by the logout type specific post handlers.

To address this special case, if the logout post handler in tx thread
context detects conn->tx_thread_active has already been cleared, simply
return and exit in order for existing iscsit_close_connection()
logic from rx thread context do failed logout cleanup.

      iscsi-target: Fix initial login PDU asynchronous socket close OOPs · bf54cf1e
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      commit 25cdda95 upstream.

This patch fixes a OOPs originally introduced by:

   commit bb048357
   Author: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>
   Date:   Thu Sep 5 14:54:04 2013 -0700

   iscsi-target: Add sk->sk_state_change to cleanup after TCP failure

which would trigger a NULL pointer dereference when a TCP connection
was closed asynchronously via iscsi_target_sk_state_change(), but only
when the initial PDU processing in iscsi_target_do_login() from iscsi_np
process context was blocked waiting for backend I/O to complete.

To address this issue, this patch makes the following changes.

First, it introduces some common helper functions used for checking
socket closing state, checking login_flags, and atomically checking
socket closing state + setting login_flags.

Second, it introduces a LOGIN_FLAGS_INITIAL_PDU bit to know when a TCP
connection has dropped via iscsi_target_sk_state_change(), but the
initial PDU processing within iscsi_target_do_login() in iscsi_np
context is still running.  For this case, it sets LOGIN_FLAGS_CLOSED,
but doesn't invoke schedule_delayed_work().

The original NULL pointer dereference case reported by MNC is now handled
by iscsi_target_do_login() doing a iscsi_target_sk_check_close() before
transitioning to FFP to determine when the socket has already closed,
or iscsi_target_start_negotiation() if the login needs to exchange
more PDUs (eg: iscsi_target_do_login returned 0) but the socket has
closed.  For both of these cases, the cleanup up of remaining connection
resources will occur in iscsi_target_start_negotiation() from iscsi_np
process context once the failure is detected.

Finally, to handle to case where iscsi_target_sk_state_change() is
called after the initial PDU procesing is complete, it now invokes
conn->login_work -> iscsi_target_do_login_rx() to perform cleanup once
existing iscsi_target_sk_check_close() checks detect connection failure.
For this case, the cleanup of remaining connection resources will occur
in iscsi_target_do_login_rx() from delayed workqueue process context
once the failure is detected.

      iscsi-target: Fix early sk_data_ready LOGIN_FLAGS_READY race · cf4ab9d5
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      commit 8f0dfb3d upstream.

There is a iscsi-target/tcp login race in LOGIN_FLAGS_READY
state assignment that can result in frequent errors during
iscsi discovery:

      "iSCSI Login negotiation failed."

To address this bug, move the initial LOGIN_FLAGS_READY
assignment ahead of iscsi_target_do_login() when handling
the initial iscsi_target_start_negotiation() request PDU
during connection login.

As iscsi_target_do_login_rx() work_struct callback is
clearing LOGIN_FLAGS_READ_ACTIVE after subsequent calls
to iscsi_target_do_login(), the early sk_data_ready
ahead of the first iscsi_target_do_login() expects
LOGIN_FLAGS_READY to also be set for the initial
login request PDU.

As reported by Maged, this was first obsered using an
MSFT initiator running across multiple VMWare host
virtual machines with iscsi-target/tcp.

      iscsi-target: Always wait for kthread_should_stop() before kthread exit · 119903dc
      Jiang Yi authored 
      commit 5e0cf5e6 upstream.

There are three timing problems in the kthread usages of iscsi_target_mod:

 - np_thread of struct iscsi_np
 - rx_thread and tx_thread of struct iscsi_conn

In iscsit_close_connection(), it calls

 send_sig(SIGINT, conn->tx_thread, 1);
 kthread_stop(conn->tx_thread);

In conn->tx_thread, which is iscsi_target_tx_thread(), when it receive
SIGINT the kthread will exit without checking the return value of
kthread_should_stop().

So if iscsi_target_tx_thread() exit right between send_sig(SIGINT...)
and kthread_stop(...), the kthread_stop() will try to stop an already
stopped kthread.

This is invalid according to the documentation of kthread_stop().

      target: Avoid mappedlun symlink creation during lun shutdown · 2bf7791c
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      commit 49cb77e2 upstream.

This patch closes a race between se_lun deletion during configfs
unlink in target_fabric_port_unlink() -> core_dev_del_lun()
-> core_tpg_remove_lun(), when transport_clear_lun_ref() blocks
waiting for percpu_ref RCU grace period to finish, but a new
NodeACL mappedlun is added before the RCU grace period has
completed.

This can happen in target_fabric_mappedlun_link() because it
only checks for se_lun->lun_se_dev, which is not cleared until
after transport_clear_lun_ref() percpu_ref RCU grace period
finishes.

This bug originally manifested as NULL pointer dereference
OOPsen in target_stat_scsi_att_intr_port_show_attr_dev() on
v4.1.y code, because it dereferences lun->lun_se_dev without
a explicit NULL pointer check.

In post v4.1 code with target-core RCU conversion, the code
in target_stat_scsi_att_intr_port_show_attr_dev() no longer
uses se_lun->lun_se_dev, but the same race still exists.

To address the bug, go ahead and set se_lun>lun_shutdown as
early as possible in core_tpg_remove_lun(), and ensure new
NodeACL mappedlun creation in target_fabric_mappedlun_link()
fails during se_lun shutdown.

      media: platform: davinci: return -EINVAL for VPFE_CMD_S_CCDC_RAW_PARAMS ioctl · fa95dfc7
      Prabhakar Lad authored 
      commit da05d52d upstream.

this patch makes sure VPFE_CMD_S_CCDC_RAW_PARAMS ioctl no longer works
for vpfe_capture driver with a minimal patch suitable for backporting.

- This ioctl was never in public api and was only defined in kernel header.
- The function set_params constantly mixes up pointers and phys_addr_t
  numbers.
- This is part of a 'VPFE_CMD_S_CCDC_RAW_PARAMS' ioctl command that is
  described as an 'experimental ioctl that will change in future kernels'.
- The code to allocate the table never gets called after we copy_from_user
  the user input over the kernel settings, and then compare them
  for inequality.
- We then go on to use an address provided by user space as both the
  __user pointer for input and pass it through phys_to_virt to come up
  with a kernel pointer to copy the data to. This looks like a trivially
  exploitable root hole.

Due to these reasons we make sure this ioctl now returns -EINVAL and backport
this patch as far as possible.

As written in the datasheet the PCA955 can only handle low level irq and

Without this fix the interrupt is not usable for pca955: the gpio-pca953x
driver already set the irq type as low level which is incompatible with
edge type, then the kernel prevents using the interrupt:

"irq: type mismatch, failed to map hwirq-18 for

      ext4: fix SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA for blocksize < pagesize · bad9f614

ext4_find_unwritten_pgoff() does not properly handle a situation when
starting index is in the middle of a page and blocksize < pagesize. The
following command shows the bug on filesystem with 1k blocksize:

  xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 4k" \

            -c "pwrite 3k 1k" \
            -c "seek -a -r 0" foo

In this example, neither lseek(fd, 1024, SEEK_HOLE) nor lseek(fd, 2048,
SEEK_DATA) will return the correct result.

Fix the problem by neglecting buffers in a page before starting offset.

      mm/page_alloc: Remove kernel address exposure in free_reserved_area() · 12f60018
      Josh Poimboeuf authored 
      commit adb1fe9a upstream.

Linus suggested we try to remove some of the low-hanging fruit related
to kernel address exposure in dmesg.  The only leaks I see on my local
system are:

  Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 32K (ffffffff9e309000 - ffffffff9e311000)
  Freeing initrd memory: 10588K (ffffa0b736b42000 - ffffa0b737599000)
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 3592K (ffffffff9df87000 - ffffffff9e309000)
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 1352K (ffffa0b7288ae000 - ffffa0b728a00000)
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 632K (ffffa0b728d62000 - ffffa0b728e00000)

Linus says:

  "I suspect we should just remove [the addresses in the 'Freeing'
   messages]. I'm sure they are useful in theory, but I suspect they
   were more useful back when the whole "free init memory" was
   originally done.

   These days, if we have a use-after-free, I suspect the init-mem
   situation is the easiest situation by far. Compared to all the dynamic
   allocations which are much more likely to show it anyway. So having
   debug output for that case is likely not all that productive."

With this patch the freeing messages now look like this:

  Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 32K
  Freeing initrd memory: 10588K
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 3592K
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 1352K
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 632K

we need to call the pair even if the function calls schedule(), as seen
from the above backtrace.

This patch fixes it by informing the RCU subsystem exit/enter the irq

      workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered · c59eec4d
      Tejun Heo authored 
      commit 5c0338c6 upstream.

The combination of WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 used to imply
ordered execution.  After NUMA affinity 4c16bd32 ("workqueue:
implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues"), this is no longer
true due to per-node worker pools.

While the right way to create an ordered workqueue is
alloc_ordered_workqueue(), the documentation has been misleading for a
long time and people do use WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 for ordered
workqueues which can lead to subtle bugs which are very difficult to
trigger.

It's unlikely that we'd see noticeable performance impact by enforcing
ordering on WQ_UNBOUND / max_active == 1 workqueues.  Let's
automatically set __WQ_ORDERED for those workqueues.

      libata: array underflow in ata_find_dev() · 8ecd8cff
      Dan Carpenter authored 
      commit 59a5e266 upstream.

My static checker complains that "devno" can be negative, meaning that
we read before the start of the loop.  I've looked at the code, and I
think the warning is right.  This come from /proc so it's root only or
it would be quite a quite a serious bug.  The call tree looks like this:

proc_scsi_write() <- gets id and channel from simple_strtoul()
-> scsi_add_single_device() <- calls shost->transportt->user_scan()
   -> ata_scsi_user_scan()
      -> ata_find_dev()
