commit 5f16f322 upstream. Use cmpxchg() to atomically set i_flags instead of clearing out the S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc. flags and then setting them from the EXT4_IMMUTABLE_FL, EXT4_APPEND_FL flags, since this opens up a race where an immutable file has the immutable flag cleared for a brief window of time. js: there is no change for ext4. This patch defines merely inode_set_flags for jffs in the next patch. I wonder why do we have both inode_set_flags and set_mask_bits? Looks like an improperly resolved merge conflict. Reported-by:

commit 6d6747f8 upstream. The original minix zmap blocks calculation was correct, in the formula of: sbi->s_nzones - sbi->s_firstdatazone + 1 It is sp->s_zones - (sp->s_firstdatazone - 1) in the minix3 source code. But a later commit 016e8d44 ("fs/minix: Verify bitmap block counts before mounting") has changed it unfortunately as: sbi->s_nzones - (sbi->s_firstdatazone + 1) This would show free blocks one block less than the real when the total data blocks are in "full zmap blocks plus one". This patch corrects that zmap blocks calculation and tidy a printk message while at it. Signed-off-by:

commit e2c7617a upstream. Under normal circumstances nilfs_sync_fs() writes out the super block, which causes a flush of the underlying block device. But this depends on the THE_NILFS_SB_DIRTY flag, which is only set if the pointer to the last segment crosses a segment boundary. So if only a small amount of data is written before the call to nilfs_sync_fs(), no flush of the block device occurs. In the above case an additional call to blkdev_issue_flush() is needed. To prevent unnecessary overhead, the new flag nilfs->ns_flushed_device is introduced, which is cleared whenever new logs are written and set whenever the block device is flushed. For convenience the function nilfs_flush_device() is added, which contains the above logic. Signed-off-by:

commit d311d79d upstream. It actually goes back to 2004 ([PATCH] Concurrent O_SYNC write support) when sync_page_range() had been introduced; generic_file_write{,v}() correctly synced pos_after_write - written .. pos_after_write - 1 but generic_file_aio_write() synced pos_before_write .. pos_before_write + written - 1 instead. Which is not the same thing with O_APPEND, obviously. A couple of years later correct variant had been killed off when everything switched to use of generic_file_aio_write(). All users of generic_file_aio_write() are affected, and the same bug has been copied into other instances of ->aio_write(). The fix is trivial; the only subtle point is that generic_write_sync() ought to be inlined to avoid calculations useless for the majority of calls. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 01462405 ] This fixes an old regression introduced by commit b0d0d915 (ipx: remove the BKL). When a recvmsg syscall blocks waiting for new data, no data can be sent on the same socket with sendmsg because ipx_recvmsg() sleeps with the socket locked. This breaks mars-nwe (NetWare emulator): - the ncpserv process reads the request using recvmsg - ncpserv forks and spawns nwconn - ncpserv calls a (blocking) recvmsg and waits for new requests - nwconn deadlocks in sendmsg on the same socket Commit b0d0d915 has simply replaced BKL locking with lock_sock/release_sock. Unlike now, BKL got unlocked while sleeping, so a blocking recvmsg did not block a concurrent sendmsg. Only keep the socket locked while actually working with the socket data and release it prior to calling skb_recv_datagram(). Signed-off-by:

commit 7939831e upstream. We've observed the missing pvpanic call at panic, and it turned out that this was blocked by the broken notifier of drm_fb_helper, where scheduling may be called during switching to the fb console. It's fairly difficult to fix the drm_fb problem and a quick fix isn't foreseen, a simpler solution for the missing pvpanic call would be just to call this earlier. In order to assure that, this patch sets a higher priority to pvpanic notifier_block. Once when the issue of drm_fb is resolved, we can remove this priority again. Signed-off-by:

commit bd2c0035 upstream. Current implementation of HFS+ driver has small issue with remount option. Namely, for example, you are unable to remount from RO mode into RW mode by means of command "mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus". Trying to execute sequence of commands results in an error message: mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount -o remount,ro /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount: you must specify the filesystem type mount -t hfsplus -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount: /mnt/hfsplus not mounted or bad option The reason of such issue is failure of mount syscall: mount("/dev/loop0", "/mnt/hfsplus", 0x2282a60, MS_MGC_VAL|MS_REMOUNT, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) Namely, hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method receives empty "input" argument and return false in such case. As a result, hfsplus_remount() returns -EINVAL error code. This patch fixes the issue by means of return true for the case of empty "input" argument in hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method.

commit a2a720e1 upstream. The ca91cx42 and tsi148 VME bridges use the width of reads and writes on the PCI bus in part to control the width of the cycles on the VME bus. It is important that we can control the width of cycles on the VME bus as some VME hardware requires cycles of a specific width. The memcpy_toio() and memcpy_fromio() functions do not provide sufficient control, so instead loop using ioread functions. Reported-by:

commit 226572b1 upstream. Previously, tsi148_master_set() assumed the address contained in its PCI bus resource represented the actual PCI bus address. This is a fine assumption on some platforms. However, on platforms that don't use a 1:1 (CPU:PCI) mapping this results in the tsi148 driver configuring an invalid master window translation. This patch updates the vme_tsi148 driver to first convert the address contained in the PCI bus resource into a PCI bus address before using it.

commit f1674f21 upstream. The lubbock platform uses the sa1111 companion chip with a pxa250 CPU, which means it requires both the PCMCIA_SA1111 and the PCMCIA_PXA2XX code to be built into the kernel.

Here, the Address Parameter in the ASCONF chunk is even missing, too. This is just an example and similarly-crafted ASCONF chunks could be used just as well. The ASCONF chunk passes through sctp_verify_asconf() as all parameters passed sanity checks, and after walking, we ended up successfully at the chunk end boundary, and thus may invoke sctp_process_asconf(). Parameter walking is done with WORD_ROUND() to take padding into account. In sctp_process_asconf()'s TLV processing, we may fail in sctp_process_asconf_param() e.g., due to removal of the IP address that is also the source address of the packet containing the ASCONF chunk, and thus we need to add all TLVs after the failure to our ASCONF response to remote via helper function sctp_add_asconf_response(), which basically invokes a sctp_addto_chunk() adding the error parameters to the given skb. When walking to the next parameter this time, we proceed with ... length = ntohs(asconf_param->param_hdr.length); asconf_param = (void *)asconf_param + length; ... instead of the WORD_ROUND()'ed length, thus resulting here in an off-by-one that leads to reading the follow-up garbage parameter length of 12336, and thus throwing an skb_over_panic for the reply when trying to sctp_addto_chunk() next time, which implicitly calls the skb_put() with that length. Fix it by using sctp_walk_params() [ which is also used in INIT parameter processing ] macro in the verification *and* in ASCONF processing: it will make sure we don't spill over, that we walk parameters WORD_ROUND()'ed. Moreover, we're being more defensive and guard against unknown parameter types and missized addresses. Joint work with Vlad Yasevich.

commit b69040d8 upstream. When receiving a e.g. semi-good formed connection scan in the form of ... -------------- INIT[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] -------------> <----------- INIT-ACK[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] ------------ -------------------- COOKIE-ECHO --------------------> <-------------------- COOKIE-ACK --------------------- ---------------- ASCONF_a; ASCONF_b -----------------> ... where ASCONF_a equals ASCONF_b chunk (at least both serials need to be equal), we panic an SCTP server! The problem is that good-formed ASCONF chunks that we reply with ASCONF_ACK chunks are cached per serial. Thus, when we receive a same ASCONF chunk twice (e.g. through a lost ASCONF_ACK), we do not need to process them again on the server side (that was the idea, also proposed in the RFC). Instead, we know it was cached and we just resend the cached chunk instead. So far, so good. Where things get nasty is in SCTP's side effect interpreter, that is, sctp_cmd_interpreter(): While incoming ASCONF_a (chunk = event_arg) is being marked !end_of_packet and !singleton, and we have an association context, we do not flush the outqueue the first time after processing the ASCONF_ACK singleton chunk via SCTP_CMD_REPLY. Instead, we keep it queued up, although we set local_cork to 1. Commit 2e3216cd changed the precedence, so that as long as we get bundled, incoming chunks we try possible bundling on outgoing queue as well. Before this commit, we would just flush the output queue. Now, while ASCONF_a's ASCONF_ACK sits in the corked outq, we continue to process the same ASCONF_b chunk from the packet. As we have cached the previous ASCONF_ACK, we find it, grab it and do another SCTP_CMD_REPLY command on it. So, effectively, we rip the chunk->list pointers and requeue the same ASCONF_ACK chunk another time. Since we process ASCONF_b, it's correctly marked with end_of_packet and we enforce an uncork, and thus flush, thus crashing the kernel. Fix it by testing if the ASCONF_ACK is currently pending and if that is the case, do not requeue it. When flushing the output queue we may relink the chunk for preparing an outgoing packet, but eventually unlink it when it's copied into the skb right before transmission. Joint work with Vlad Yasevich. Fixes: 2e3216cd ("sctp: Follow security requirement of responding with 1 packet") Signed-off-by:

commit 26b87c78 upstream. This scenario is not limited to ASCONF, just taken as one example triggering the issue. When receiving ASCONF probes in the form of ... -------------- INIT[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] -------------> <----------- INIT-ACK[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] ------------ -------------------- COOKIE-ECHO --------------------> <-------------------- COOKIE-ACK --------------------- ---- ASCONF_a; [ASCONF_b; ...; ASCONF_n;] JUNK ------> [...] ---- ASCONF_m; [ASCONF_o; ...; ASCONF_z;] JUNK ------> ... where ASCONF_a, ASCONF_b, ..., ASCONF_z are good-formed ASCONFs and have increasing serial numbers, we process such ASCONF chunk(s) marked with !end_of_packet and !singleton, since we have not yet reached the SCTP packet end. SCTP does only do verification on a chunk by chunk basis, as an SCTP packet is nothing more than just a container of a stream of chunks which it eats up one by one. We could run into the case that we receive a packet with a malformed tail, above marked as trailing JUNK. All previous chunks are here goodformed, so the stack will eat up all previous chunks up to this point. In case JUNK does not fit into a chunk header and there are no more other chunks in the input queue, or in case JUNK contains a garbage chunk header, but the encoded chunk length would exceed the skb tail, or we came here from an entirely different scenario and the chunk has pdiscard=1 mark (without having had a flush point), it will happen, that we will excessively queue up the association's output queue (a correct final chunk may then turn it into a response flood when flushing the queue ;)): I ran a simple script with incremental ASCONF serial numbers and could see the server side consuming excessive amount of RAM [before/after: up to 2GB and more]. The issue at heart is that the chunk train basically ends with !end_of_packet and !singleton markers and since commit 2e3216cd ("sctp: Follow security requirement of responding with 1 packet") therefore preventing an output queue flush point in sctp_do_sm() -> sctp_cmd_interpreter() on the input chunk (chunk = event_arg) even though local_cork is set, but its precedence has changed since then. In the normal case, the last chunk with end_of_packet=1 would trigger the queue flush to accommodate possible outgoing bundling. In the input queue, sctp_inq_pop() seems to do the right thing in terms of discarding invalid chunks. So, above JUNK will not enter the state machine and instead be released and exit the sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() chunk processing loop. It's simply the flush point being missing at loop exit. Adding a try-flush approach on the output queue might not work as the underlying infrastructure might be long gone at this point due to the side-effect interpreter run. One possibility, albeit a bit of a kludge, would be to defer invalid chunk freeing into the state machine in order to possibly trigger packet discards and thus indirectly a queue flush on error. It would surely be better to discard chunks as in the current, perhaps better controlled environment, but going back and forth, it's simply architecturally not possible. I tried various trailing JUNK attack cases and it seems to look good now. Joint work with Vlad Yasevich.

commit a2b9e6c1 upstream. Commit fc3a9157 ("KVM: X86: Don't report L2 emulation failures to user-space") disabled the reporting of L2 (nested guest) emulation failures to userspace due to race-condition between a vmexit and the instruction emulator. The same rational applies also to userspace applications that are permitted by the guest OS to access MMIO area or perform PIO. This patch extends the current behavior - of injecting a #UD instead of reporting it to userspace - also for guest userspace code. Signed-off-by:

commit 2aa792e6 upstream. The rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function checks for three conditions before waking up grace period kthreads: * Is the thread we are trying to wake up the current thread? * Are the gp_flags zero? (all threads wait on non-zero gp_flags condition) * Is there no thread created for this flavour, hence nothing to wake up? If any one of these condition is true, we do not call wake_up(). It was found that there are quite a few avoidable wake ups both during idle time and under stress induced by rcutorture. Idle: Total:66000, unnecessary:66000, case1:61827, case2:66000, case3:0 Total:68000, unnecessary:68000, case1:63696, case2:68000, case3:0 rcutorture: Total:254000, unnecessary:254000, case1:199913, case2:254000, case3:0 Total:256000, unnecessary:256000, case1:201784, case2:256000, case3:0 Here case{1-3} are the cases listed above. We can avoid these wake ups by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() to conditionally wake up the grace period kthreads. There is a comment about an implied barrier supplied by the wake_up() logic. This barrier is necessary for the awakened thread to see the updated ->gp_flags. This flag is always being updated with the root node lock held. Also, the awakened thread tries to acquire the root node lock before reading ->gp_flags because of which there is proper ordering. Hence this commit tries to avoid calling wake_up() whenever we can by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function. Signed-off-by:

commit 48a7639c upstream. The rcu_start_gp_advanced() function currently uses irq_work_queue() to defer wakeups of the RCU grace-period kthread. This deferring is necessary to avoid RCU-scheduler deadlocks involving the rcu_node structure's lock, meaning that RCU cannot call any of the scheduler's wake-up functions while holding one of these locks. Unfortunately, the second and subsequent calls to irq_work_queue() are ignored, and the first call will be ignored (aside from queuing the work item) if the scheduler-clock tick is turned off. This is OK for many uses, especially those where irq_work_queue() is called from an interrupt or softirq handler, because in those cases the scheduler-clock-tick state will be re-evaluated, which will turn the scheduler-clock tick back on. On the next tick, any deferred work will then be processed. However, this strategy does not always work for RCU, which can be invoked at process level from idle CPUs. In this case, the tick might never be turned back on, indefinitely defering a grace-period start request. Note that the RCU CPU stall detector cannot see this condition, because there is no RCU grace period in progress. Therefore, we can (and do!) see long tens-of-seconds stalls in grace-period handling. In theory, we could see a full grace-period hang, but rcutorture testing to date has seen only the tens-of-seconds stalls. Event tracing demonstrates that irq_work_queue() is being called repeatedly to no effect during these stalls: The "newreq" event appears repeatedly from a task that is not one of the grace-period kthreads. In theory, irq_work_queue() might be fixed to avoid this sort of issue, but RCU's requirements are unusual and it is quite straightforward to pass wake-up responsibility up through RCU's call chain, so that the wakeup happens when the offending locks are released. This commit therefore makes this change. The rcu_start_gp_advanced(), rcu_start_future_gp(), rcu_accelerate_cbs(), rcu_advance_cbs(), __note_gp_changes(), and rcu_start_gp() functions now return a boolean which indicates when a wake-up is needed. A new rcu_gp_kthread_wake() does the wakeup when it is necessary and safe to do so: No self-wakes, no wake-ups if the ->gp_flags field indicates there is no need (as in someone else did the wake-up before we got around to it), and no wake-ups before the grace-period kthread has been created.

commit b51d3fa3 upstream. The kernel should reserve enough room in the skb so that the DONE message can always be appended. However, in case of e.g. new attribute erronously not being size-accounted for, __nfulnl_send() will still try to put next nlmsg into this full skbuf, causing the skb to be stuck forever and blocking delivery of further messages. Fix issue by releasing skb immediately after nlmsg_put error and WARN() so we can track down the cause of such size mismatch. [ fw@strlen.de: add tailroom/len info to WARN ] Signed-off-by:
