Commit bfd40eaf ("mm: fix vma_is_anonymous() false-positives") made newly allocated vma's have a dummy vm_ops field so that they wouldn't be mistaken for anonymous mappings, and if you wanted an anonymous vma you had to explicitly say so by calling "vma_set_anonymous()" on it. However, it missed the two special vmas that ia64 processes have: the register backing store and the NaT page. So they wouldn't actually act like anonymous ranges, and page faults on them caused a SIGBUS rather than the creation of a new anon page in them. That obviously will make any ia64 binary very unhappy indeed, and the boot fails early.

The variable 'context->module.name' may be null pointer when kmalloc return null, so it's better to check it before using to avoid null dereference. Another one more thing this patch does is using kstrdup instead of (kmalloc + strcpy), and signal a lost record via audit_log_lost.

Anatoly Trosinenko reports that a corrupted squashfs image can cause a kernel oops. It turns out that squashfs can end up being confused about negative fragment lengths.

Commit 8844618d: "ext4: only look at the bg_flags field if it is valid" will complain if block group zero does not have the EXT4_BG_INODE_ZEROED flag set. Unfortunately, this is not correct, since a freshly created file system has this flag cleared. It gets almost immediately after the file system is mounted read-write --- but the following somewhat unlikely sequence will end up triggering a false positive report of a corrupted file system: mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdc mount -o ro /dev/vdc /vdc mount -o remount,rw /dev/vdc Instead, when initializing the inode table for block group zero, test to make sure that itable_unused count is not too large, since that is the case that will result in some or all of the reserved inodes getting cleared. This fixes the failures reported by Eric Whiteney when running generic/230 and generic/231 in the the nojournal test case.

As for today STMMAC_ALIGN macro (which is used to align DMA stuff) relies on L1 line length (L1_CACHE_BYTES). This isn't correct in case of system with several cache levels which might have L1 cache line length smaller than L2 line. This can lead to sharing one cache line between DMA buffer and other data, so we can lose this data while invalidate DMA buffer before DMA transaction. Fix that by using SMP_CACHE_BYTES instead of L1_CACHE_BYTES for aligning. Signed-off-by: Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Previous change in the AML parser code blindly set all non-successful dispatcher statuses to AE_OK. That approach is incorrect, though, because successful control method invocations from module-level return AE_CTRL_TRANSFER.

Neal Cardwell authored
For some very small BDPs (with just a few packets) there was a quantization effect where the target number of packets in flight during the super-unity-gain (1.25x) phase of gain cycling was implicitly truncated to a number of packets no larger than the normal unity-gain (1.0x) phase of gain cycling. This meant that in multi-flow scenarios some flows could get stuck with a lower bandwidth, because they did not push enough packets inflight to discover that there was more bandwidth available. This was really only an issue in multi-flow LAN scenarios, where RTTs and BDPs are low enough for this to be an issue. This fix ensures that gain cycling can raise inflight for small BDPs by ensuring that in PROBE_BW mode target inflight values with a super-unity gain are always greater than inflight values with a gain <= 1. Importantly, this applies whether the inflight value is calculated for use as a cwnd value, or as a target inflight value for the end of the super-unity phase in bbr_is_next_cycle_phase() (both need to be bigger to ensure we can probe with more packets in flight reliably). This is a candidate fix for stable releases.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2018-07-28 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. The main changes are: 1) API fixes for libbpf's BTF mapping of map key/value types in order to make them compatible with iproute2's BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR() markings, from Martin. 2) Fix AF_XDP to not report POLLIN prematurely by using the non-cached consumer pointer of the RX queue, from Björn. 3) Fix __xdp_return() to check for NULL pointer after the rhashtable lookup that retrieves the allocator object, from Taehee. 4) Fix x86-32 JIT to adjust ebp register in prologue and epilogue by 4 bytes which got removed from overall stack usage, from Wang. 5) Fix bpf_skb_load_bytes_relative() length check to use actual packet length, from Daniel. 6) Fix uninitialized return code in libbpf bpf_perf_event_read_simple() handler, from Thomas. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull random fixes from Ted Ts'o: "In reaction to the fixes to address CVE-2018-1108, some Linux distributions that have certain systemd versions in some cases combined with patches to libcrypt for FIPS/FEDRAMP compliance, have led to boot-time stalls for some hardware. The reaction by some distros and Linux sysadmins has been to install packages that try to do complicated things with the CPU and hope that leads to randomness. To mitigate this, if RDRAND is available, mix it into entropy provided by userspace. It won't hurt, and it will probably help" * tag 'random_for_linus_stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random: random: mix rdrand with entropy sent in from userspace

mdio_mux_iproc_probe() uses platform_set_drvdata() to store md pointer in device, whereas mdio_mux_iproc_remove() restores md pointer by dev_get_platdata(&pdev->dev). This leads to wrong resources release. The patch replaces getter to platform_get_drvdata.

Remove BUG_ON() from fib_compute_spec_dst routine and check in_dev pointer during flowi4 data structure initialization. fib_compute_spec_dst routine can be run concurrently with device removal where ip_ptr net_device pointer is set to NULL. This can happen if userspace enables pkt info on UDP rx socket and the device is removed while traffic is flowing Fixes: 35ebf65e ("ipv4: Create and use fib_compute_spec_dst() helper") Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
