[ Upstream commit bd1d3950 ] When continuously running wifi up/down sequence, the napi poll can be scheduled after the CE buffers being freed by ath10k_pci_flush Steps: In a certain condition, during wifi down below scenario might occur. ath10k_stop->ath10k_hif_stop->napi_schedule->ath10k_pci_flush->napi_poll(napi_synchronize). In the above scenario, CE buffer entries will be freed up and become NULL in ath10k_pci_flush. And the napi_poll has been invoked after the flush process and it will try to get the skb from the CE buffer entry and perform some action on that. Since the CE buffer already cleaned by pci flush this action will create NULL pointer dereference and trigger below kernel panic. Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000005c PC is at ath10k_pci_htt_rx_cb+0x64/0x3ec [ath10k_pci] ath10k_pci_htt_rx_cb [ath10k_pci] ath10k_ce_per_engine_service+0x74/0xc4 [ath10k_pci] ath10k_ce_per_engine_service [ath10k_pci] ath10k_ce_per_engine_service_any+0x74/0x80 [ath10k_pci] ath10k_ce_per_engine_service_any [ath10k_pci] ath10k_pci_napi_poll+0x48/0xec [ath10k_pci] ath10k_pci_napi_poll [ath10k_pci] net_rx_action+0xac/0x160 net_rx_action __do_softirq+0xdc/0x208 __do_softirq irq_exit+0x84/0xe0 irq_exit __handle_domain_irq+0x80/0xa0 __handle_domain_irq gic_handle_irq+0x38/0x5c gic_handle_irq __irq_usr+0x44/0x60 Tested on QCA4019 and firmware version 10.4.3.2.1.1-00010 Signed-off-by:

commit 0362f326 upstream. An exiting task might belong to an offline cgroup. In this case an attempt to grab a cgroup reference from the task can end up with an infinite loop in hugetlb_cgroup_charge_cgroup(), because neither the cgroup will become online, neither the task will be migrated to a live cgroup. Fix this by switching over to css_tryget(). As css_tryget_online() can't guarantee that the cgroup won't go offline, in most cases the check doesn't make sense. In this particular case users of hugetlb_cgroup_charge_cgroup() are not affected by this change. A similar problem is described by commit 18fa84a2 ("cgroup: Use css_tryget() instead of css_tryget_online() in task_get_css()").

We're iterating over and over in the do {} while (!css_tryget_online()) loop, but obviously the memcg won't become online and the exiting task won't be migrated to a live memcg. Let's fix it by switching from css_tryget_online() to css_tryget(). As css_tryget_online() cannot guarantee that the memcg won't go offline, the check is usually useless, except some rare cases when for example it determines if something should be presented to a user. A similar problem is described by commit 18fa84a2 ("cgroup: Use css_tryget() instead of css_tryget_online() in task_get_css()"). Johannes: : The bug aside, it doesn't matter whether the cgroup is online for the : callers. It used to matter when offlining needed to evacuate all charges : from the memcg, and so needed to prevent new ones from showing up, but we : don't care now.

commit 762c6968 upstream. We need to get the underlying dentry of parent; sure, absent the races it is the parent of underlying dentry, but there's nothing to prevent losing a timeslice to preemtion in the middle of evaluation of lower_dentry->d_parent->d_inode, having another process move lower_dentry around and have its (ex)parent not pinned anymore and freed on memory pressure. Then we regain CPU and try to fetch ->d_inode from memory that is freed by that point. dentry->d_parent *is* stable here - it's an argument of ->lookup() and we are guaranteed that it won't be moved anywhere until we feed it to d_add/d_splice_alias. So we safely go that way to get to its underlying dentry. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # since 2009 or so Signed-off-by:

commit e72b9dd6 upstream. lower_dentry can't go from positive to negative (we have it pinned), but it *can* go from negative to positive. So fetching ->d_inode into a local variable, doing a blocking allocation, checking that now ->d_inode is non-NULL and feeding the value we'd fetched earlier to a function that won't accept NULL is not a good idea.

commit a9c3c4c5 upstream. If an hfi1 card is inserted in a Gen4 systems, the driver will avoid the gen3 speed bump and the card will operate at half speed. This is because the driver avoids the gen3 speed bump when the parent bus speed isn't identical to gen3, 8.0GT/s. This is not compatible with gen4 and newer speeds. Fix by relaxing the test to explicitly look for the lower capability speeds which inherently allows for gen4 and all future speeds.

commit 1aa9b957 upstream. The page table pages corresponding to broken down large pages are zapped in FIFO order, so that the large page can potentially be recovered, if it is not longer being used for execution. This removes the performance penalty for walking deeper EPT page tables. By default, one large page will last about one hour once the guest reaches a steady state. Signed-off-by:

commit b8e8c830 upstream. With some Intel processors, putting the same virtual address in the TLB as both a 4 KiB and 2 MiB page can confuse the instruction fetch unit and cause the processor to issue a machine check resulting in a CPU lockup. Unfortunately when EPT page tables use huge pages, it is possible for a malicious guest to cause this situation. Add a knob to mark huge pages as non-executable. When the nx_huge_pages parameter is enabled (and we are using EPT), all huge pages are marked as NX. If the guest attempts to execute in one of those pages, the page is broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable. This is not an issue for shadow paging (except nested EPT), because then the host is in control of TLB flushes and the problematic situation cannot happen. With nested EPT, again the nested guest can cause problems shadow and direct EPT is treated in the same way. [ tglx: Fixup default to auto and massage wording a bit ] Originally-by:

commit 731dc9df upstream. A kernel module may need to check the value of the "mitigations=" kernel command line parameter as part of its setup when the module needs to perform software mitigations for a CPU flaw. Uninline and export the helper functions surrounding the cpu_mitigations enum to allow for their usage from a module. Lastly, privatize the enum and cpu_mitigations variable since the value of cpu_mitigations can be checked with the exported helper functions. Signed-off-by:

commit db4d30fb upstream. Some processors may incur a machine check error possibly resulting in an unrecoverable CPU lockup when an instruction fetch encounters a TLB multi-hit in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is changed along with either the physical address or cache type. The relevant erratum can be found here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205195 There are other processors affected for which the erratum does not fully disclose the impact. This issue affects both bare-metal x86 page tables and EPT. It can be mitigated by either eliminating the use of large pages or by using careful TLB invalidations when changing the page size in the page tables. Just like Spectre, Meltdown, L1TF and MDS, a new bit has been allocated in MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) and will be set on CPUs which are mitigated against this issue. Signed-off-by:

commit 9167ab79 upstream. VMX already does so if the host has SMEP, in order to support the combination of CR0.WP=1 and CR4.SMEP=1. However, it is perfectly safe to always do so, and in fact VMX already ends up running with EFER.NXE=1 on old processors that lack the "load EFER" controls, because it may help avoiding a slow MSR write. Removing all the conditionals simplifies the code. SVM does not have similar code, but it should since recent AMD processors do support SMEP. So this patch also makes the code for the two vendors more similar while fixing NPT=0, CR0.WP=1 and CR4.SMEP=1 on AMD processors. Cc: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de> Signed-off-by:

commit 012206a8 upstream. For new IBRS_ALL CPUs, the Enhanced IBRS check at the beginning of cpu_bugs_smt_update() causes the function to return early, unintentionally skipping the MDS and TAA logic. This is not a problem for MDS, because there appears to be no overlap between IBRS_ALL and MDS-affected CPUs. So the MDS mitigation would be disabled and nothing would need to be done in this function anyway. But for TAA, the TAA_MSG_SMT string will never get printed on Cascade Lake and newer. The check is superfluous anyway: when 'spectre_v2_enabled' is SPECTRE_V2_IBRS_ENHANCED, 'spectre_v2_user' is always SPECTRE_V2_USER_NONE, and so the 'spectre_v2_user' switch statement handles it appropriately by doing nothing. So just remove the check. Fixes: 1b42f017 ("x86/speculation/taa: Add mitigation for TSX Async Abort") Signed-off-by:

commit db616173 upstream. There is a general consensus that TSX usage is not largely spread while the history shows there is a non trivial space for side channel attacks possible. Therefore the tsx is disabled by default even on platforms that might have a safe implementation of TSX according to the current knowledge. This is a fair trade off to make. There are, however, workloads that really do benefit from using TSX and updating to a newer kernel with TSX disabled might introduce a noticeable regressions. This would be especially a problem for Linux distributions which will provide TAA mitigations. Introduce config options X86_INTEL_TSX_MODE_OFF, X86_INTEL_TSX_MODE_ON and X86_INTEL_TSX_MODE_AUTO to control the TSX feature. The config setting can be overridden by the tsx cmdline options.

commit e1d38b63 upstream. Export the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR bit MDS_NO=0 to guests on TSX Async Abort(TAA) affected hosts that have TSX enabled and updated microcode. This is required so that the guests don't complain, "Vulnerable: Clear CPU buffers attempted, no microcode" when the host has the updated microcode to clear CPU buffers. Microcode update also adds support for MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL which is enumerated by the ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL bit in IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR. Guests can't do this check themselves when the ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL bit is not exported to the guests. In this case export MDS_NO=0 to the guests. When guests have CPUID.MD_CLEAR=1, they deploy MDS mitigation which also mitigates TAA. Signed-off-by:
