commit f76a1cbe upstream. Commit 3e6c6f63 ("Delay creation of khcvd thread") moved the call of hvc_init from being a device_initcall into hvc_alloc, and used a non-null hvc_driver as indication of whether hvc_init had already been called. The problem with this is that hvc_driver is only assigned a value at the bottom of hvc_init, and so there is a window where multiple hvc_alloc calls can be in progress at the same time and hence try and call hvc_init multiple times. Previously the use of device_init guaranteed that hvc_init was only called once. This manifests itself as sporadic instances of two hvc_init calls racing each other, and with the loser of the race getting -EBUSY from tty_register_driver() and hence that virtual console fails: Couldn't register hvc console driver virtio-ports vport0p1: error -16 allocating hvc for port Here we add an atomic_t to guarantee we'll never run hvc_init twice.

commit 6b0df682 upstream. The functions for data copying copyarea_foreward_8bpp and copyarea_backward_8bpp are buggy, they produce screen corruption. This patch fixes the functions and moves the logic to one function "copyarea_8bpp". For simplicity, the function only handles copying that is aligned on 8 pixes. If we copy an unaligned area, generic function cfb_copyarea is used. Signed-off-by:

commit 43751a1b upstream. This patch fixes the hardware cursor on mach64 when font width is not a multiple of 8 pixels. If you load such a font, the cursor is expanded to the next 8-byte boundary and a part of the next character after the cursor is not visible. For example, when you load a font with 12-pixel width, the cursor width is 16 pixels and when the cursor is displayed, 4 pixels of the next character are not visible. The reason is this: atyfb_cursor is called with proper parameters to load an image that is 12-pixel wide. However, the number is aligned on the next 8-pixel boundary on the line "unsigned int width = (cursor->image.width + 7) >> 3;" and the whole function acts as it is was loading a 16-pixel image. This patch fixes it so that the value written to the framebuffer is padded with 0xaaaa (the transparent pattern) when the image size it not a multiple of 8 pixels. The transparent pattern causes that the cursor will not interfere with the next character. Signed-off-by:

commit c29dd869 upstream. This patch fixes mach64 to use unaligned access to the font bitmap. This fixes unaligned access warning on sparc64 when 14x8 font is loaded. On x86(64), unaligned access is handled in hardware, so both functions le32_to_cpup and get_unaligned_le32 perform the same operation. On RISC machines, unaligned access is not handled in hardware, so we better use get_unaligned_le32 to avoid the unaligned trap and warning. Signed-off-by:

commit 00a9d699 upstream. The function cfb_copyarea is buggy when the copy operation is not aligned on long boundary (4 bytes on 32-bit machines, 8 bytes on 64-bit machines). How to reproduce: - use x86-64 machine - use a framebuffer driver without acceleration (for example uvesafb) - set the framebuffer to 8-bit depth (for example fbset -a 1024x768-60 -depth 8) - load a font with character width that is not a multiple of 8 pixels note: the console-tools package cannot load a font that has width different from 8 pixels. You need to install the packages "kbd" and "console-terminus" and use the program "setfont" to set font width (for example: setfont Uni2-Terminus20x10) - move some text left and right on the bash command line and you get a screen corruption To expose more bugs, put this line to the end of uvesafb_init_info: info->flags |= FBINFO_HWACCEL_COPYAREA | FBINFO_READS_FAST; - Now framebuffer console will use cfb_copyarea for console scrolling. You get a screen corruption when console is scrolled. This patch is a rewrite of cfb_copyarea. It fixes the bugs, with this patch, console scrolling in 8-bit depth with a font width that is not a multiple of 8 pixels works fine. The cfb_copyarea code was very buggy and it looks like it was written and never tried with non-8-pixel font. Signed-off-by:

commit b6ccb980 upstream. CPU_32v6 currently selects CPU_USE_DOMAINS if CPU_V6 and MMU. This is because ARM 1136 r0pX CPUs lack the v6k extensions, and therefore do not have hardware thread registers. The lack of these registers requires the kernel to update the vectors page at each context switch in order to write a new TLS pointer. This write must be done via the userspace mapping, since aliasing caches can lead to expensive flushing when using kmap. Finally, this requires the vectors page to be mapped r/w for kernel and r/o for user, which has implications for things like put_user which must trigger CoW appropriately when targetting user pages. The upshot of all this is that a v6/v7 kernel makes use of domains to segregate kernel and user memory accesses. This has the nasty side-effect of making device mappings executable, which has been observed to cause subtle bugs on recent cores (e.g. Cortex-A15 performing a speculative instruction fetch from the GIC and acking an interrupt in the process). This patch solves this problem by removing the remaining domain support from ARMv6. A new memory type is added specifically for the vectors page which allows that page (and only that page) to be mapped as user r/o, kernel r/w. All other user r/o pages are mapped also as kernel r/o.

commit 26ffd0d4 upstream. PROT_NONE mappings apply the page protection attributes defined by _P000 which translate to PAGE_NONE for ARM. These attributes specify an XN, RDONLY pte that is inaccessible to userspace. However, on kernels configured without support for domains, such a pte *is* accessible to the kernel and can be read via get_user, allowing tasks to read PROT_NONE pages via syscalls such as read/write over a pipe. This patch introduces a new software pte flag, L_PTE_NONE, that is set to identify faulting, present entries. Signed-off-by:

commit 6b355b33 upstream. Previous logic, if (avail > 8) { store slave; return; } send data; clear; The logic error is, if there isn't space send the buffer and clear, but the slave wasn't added to the now empty buffer loosing that slave id. It also should have been "if (avail >= 8)" because when it is 8, there is space. Instead, if there isn't space send and clear the buffer, then there is always space for the slave id. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 557fc587 ] The SIMBA APB Bridges lacks the 'ranges' of-property describing the PCI I/O and memory areas located beneath the bridge. Faking this information has been performed by reading range registers in the APB bridge, and calculating the corresponding areas. In commit 01f94c4a ("Fix sabre pci controllers with new probing scheme.") a bug was introduced into this calculation, causing the PCI memory areas to be calculated incorrectly: The shift size was set to be identical for I/O and MEM ranges, which is incorrect. This patch set the shift size of the MEM range back to the value used before 01f94c4a. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7563487c ] There are three buffer overflows addressed in this patch. 1) In isdnloop_fake_err() we add an 'E' to a 60 character string and then copy it into a 60 character buffer. I have made the destination buffer 64 characters and I'm changed the sprintf() to a snprintf(). 2) In isdnloop_parse_cmd(), p points to a 6 characters into a 60 character buffer so we have 54 characters. The ->eazlist[] is 11 characters long. I have modified the code to return if the source buffer is too long. 3) In isdnloop_command() the cbuf[] array was 60 characters long but the max length of the string then can be up to 79 characters. I made the cbuf array 80 characters long and changed the sprintf() to snprintf(). I also removed the temporary "dial" buffer and changed it to use "p" directly. Unfortunately, we pass the "cbuf" string from isdnloop_command() to isdnloop_writecmd() which truncates anything over 60 characters to make it fit in card->omsg[]. (It can accept values up to 255 characters so long as there is a '\n' character every 60 characters). For now I have just fixed the memory corruption bug and left the other problems in this driver alone. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 8b7b9324 ] nla_strcmp compares the string length plus one, so it's implicitly including the nul-termination in the comparison. int nla_strcmp(const struct nlattr *nla, const char *str) { int len = strlen(str) + 1; ... d = memcmp(nla_data(nla), str, len); However, if NLA_STRING is used, userspace can send us a string without the nul-termination. This is a problem since the string comparison will not match as the last byte may be not the nul-termination. Fix this by skipping the comparison of the nul-termination if the attribute data is nul-terminated. Suggested by Thomas Graf.

[ Upstream commit ecab6701 ] tmp_prefered_lft is an offset to ifp->tstamp, not now. Therefore age needs to be added to the condition. Age calculation in ipv6_create_tempaddr is different from the one in addrconf_verify and doesn't consider ADDRCONF_TIMER_FUZZ_MINUS. This can cause age in ipv6_create_tempaddr to be less than the one in addrconf_verify and therefore unnecessary temporary address to be generated.

This patch adds a sanity check to ignore such broken MLD queries. Without this check, such malformed MLD queries can result in a denial of service: The queries are ignored by any MLD listener therefore they will not respond with an MLD report. However, without this patch these malformed MLD queries would enable the snooping part in the bridge code, potentially shutting down the according ports towards these hosts for multicast traffic as the bridge did not learn about these listeners.

The fix is to centrally free such clones in sctp_chunk_destroy() handler that is invoked from sctp_chunk_free() after all refs have dropped; and also move both kfree_skb(chunk->auth_chunk) there, so that chunk->auth_chunk is either NULL (since sctp_chunkify() allocs new chunks through kmem_cache_zalloc()) or non-NULL with a valid skb pointer. chunk->skb and chunk->auth_chunk are the only skbs in the sctp_chunk structure that need to be handeled. While at it, we should use consume_skb() for both. It is the same as dev_kfree_skb() but more appropriately named as we are not a device but a protocol. Also, this effectively replaces the kfree_skb() from both invocations into consume_skb(). Functions are the same only that kfree_skb() assumes that the frame was being dropped after a failure (e.g. for tools like drop monitor), usage of consume_skb() seems more appropriate in function sctp_chunk_destroy() though.

Set the base-ASTE origin and the subspace-ASTE origin of the dispatchable-unit-control-table to point to a dummy ASTE. Set up control register 15 to point to an empty linkage stack with no room left. A user space process with a linkage stack instruction will still crash but with a different exception which is correctly translated to a segmentation fault instead of a kernel oops. Signed-off-by:

commit 5d81de8e upstream. It's possible for userland to pass down an iovec via writev() that has a bogus user pointer in it. If that happens and we're doing an uncached write, then we can end up getting less bytes than we expect from the call to iov_iter_copy_from_user. This is CVE-2014-0069 cifs_iovec_write isn't set up to handle that situation however. It'll blindly keep chugging through the page array and not filling those pages with anything useful. Worse yet, we'll later end up with a negative number in wdata->tailsz, which will confuse the sending routines and cause an oops at the very least. Fix this by having the copy phase of cifs_iovec_write stop copying data in this situation and send the last write as a short one. At the same time, we want to avoid sending a zero-length write to the server, so break out of the loop and set rc to -EFAULT if that happens. This also allows us to handle the case where no address in the iovec is valid. [Note: Marking this for stable on v3.4+ kernels, but kernels as old as v2.6.38 may have a similar problem and may need similar fix] Reviewed-by:

commit 26a865f4 upstream. After free_loaded_vmcs executes, the "loaded_vmcs" structure is kfreed, and now vmx->loaded_vmcs points to a kfreed area. Subsequent free_loaded_vmcs then attempts to manipulate vmx->loaded_vmcs. Switch the order to avoid the problem. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1047892Reviewed-by:

commit 989c6b34 upstream. It is possible for __direct_map to be called on invalid root_hpa (-1), two examples: 1) try_async_pf -> can_do_async_pf -> vmx_interrupt_allowed -> nested_vmx_vmexit 2) vmx_handle_exit -> vmx_interrupt_allowed -> nested_vmx_vmexit Then to load_vmcs12_host_state and kvm_mmu_reset_context. Check for this possibility, let fault exception be regenerated. BZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=924916Signed-off-by:

commit d43ff4cd upstream. The struct driver_info ax88178_info is assigned the function asix_rx_fixup_common as it's rx_fixup callback. This means that FLAG_MULTI_PACKET must be set as this function is cloning the data and calling usbnet_skb_return. Not setting this flag leads to usbnet_skb_return beeing called a second time from within the rx_process function in the usbnet module. Signed-off-by:

commit 8b5b6f54 upstream. ASIX AX88772B started to pack data even more tightly. Packets and the ASIX packet header may now cross URB boundaries. To handle this we have to introduce some state between individual calls to asix_rx_fixup(). Signed-off-by:

commit a9e0aca4 upstream. asix_rx_fixup() is complex, and does some unnecessary memory copies (at least on x86 where NET_IP_ALIGN is 0) Also, it tends to provide skbs with a big truesize (4096+256 with MTU=1500) to upper stack, so incoming trafic consume a lot of memory and I noticed early packet drops because we hit socket rcvbuf too fast. Switch to a different strategy, using copybreak so that we provide nice skbs to upper stack (including the NET_SKB_PAD to avoid future head reallocations in some paths) With this patch, I no longer see packets drops or tcp collapses on various tcp workload with a AX88772 adapter.

commit f8ce239d upstream. builddeb generates a control file that says the linux-headers package can only be built for the build system primary architecture. This breaks cross-building configurations. We should use $debarch for this instead. Since $debarch is not yet set when generating the control file, set Architecture: any and use control file variables to fill in the description.
