If 'IS_ERR(pdata->clk)' is true, then 'clk_disable_unprepare(pdata->clk)' will do nothing. It is likely that 'if (!IS_ERR(pdata->clk))' was expected here.

Since commit 4f008781 ("sctp: apply rhashtable api to send/recv path"), sctp uses transport rhashtable with .obj_cmpfn sctp_hash_cmp, in which it compares the members of the transport with the rhashtable args to check if it's the right transport. But sctp uses the transport without holding it in sctp_hash_cmp, it can cause a use-after-free panic. As after it gets transport from hashtable, another CPU may close the sk and free the asoc. In sctp_association_free, it frees all the transports, meanwhile, the assoc's refcnt may be reduced to 0, assoc can be destroyed by sctp_association_destroy. So after that, transport->assoc is actually an unavailable memory address in sctp_hash_cmp. Although sctp_hash_cmp is under rcu_read_lock, it still can not avoid this, as assoc is not freed by RCU. This patch is to hold the transport before checking it's members with sctp_transport_hold, in which it checks the refcnt first, holds it if it's not 0.

When system enters into kdump kernel because of kernel panic, it won't shutdown devices. On-flight DMA will continue transferring data until device driver initializes. All devices are supposed to reset during driver initialization. And this property is used to fix the kdump failure in system with intel iommu. Other systems with hardware iommu should be similar. Please check commit 091d42e4 ("iommu/vt-d: Copy translation tables from old kernel") and those commits around. But bnx2 driver doesn't reset device during driver initialization. The device resetting is deferred to net device up stage. This will cause hardware iommu handling failure on bnx2 device. And its resetting relies on firmware. So in this patch move the firmware requesting code to earlier bnx2_init_one(), then next call bnx2_reset_chip to reset device. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Pedersen, Thomas authored
A fixed mpath was not quite being treated as such: 1) if a PERR frame was received, a fixed mpath was deactivated. 2) queued path discovery for fixed mpath was potentially being considered, changing mpath state. 3) other mpath flags were potentially being inherited when fixing the mpath. Just assign PATH_FIXED and SN_VALID. This solves several issues when fixing a mesh path in one direction. The reverse direction mpath should probably also be fixed, or root announcements at least be enabled.

Due to a mistake in the hardware manual, the FWSLC and POST1-4 registers were not documented and left out of the driver for RZ/A making the CAM feature non-operational. Additionally, when the offset values for POST1-4 are left blank, the driver attempts to set them using an offset of 0xFFFF which can cause a memory corruption or panic. This patch fixes the panic and properly enables CAM.

The device-dax interface appeared in 4.7 so this is tagged for -stable. - Fix a couple VM_BUG_ON() checks in the show_smaps() path to understand DAX pmd entries. This fix is tagged for -stable. - Fix a mis-merge of the nfit machine-check handler to flip the polarity of an if() to match the final version of the patch that Vishal sent for 4.8-rc1. Without this the nfit machine check handler never detects / inserts new 'badblocks' entries which applications use to identify lost portions of files. - For test purposes, fix the nvdimm_clear_poison() path to operate on legacy / simulated nvdimm memory ranges. Without this fix a test can set badblocks, but never clear them on these ranges. - Fix the range checking done by dax_dev_pmd_fault(). This is not tagged for -stable since this problem is mitigated by specifying aligned resources at device-dax setup time. These patches have appeared in a next release over the past week.

Since setting an encryption policy requires writing metadata to the filesystem, it should be guarded by mnt_want_write/mnt_drop_write. Otherwise, a user could cause a write to a frozen or readonly filesystem. This was handled correctly by f2fs but not by ext4. Make fscrypt_process_policy() handle it rather than relying on the filesystem to get it right.

The FS_IOC_SET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY ioctl allowed setting an encryption policy on nondirectory files. This was unintentional, and in the case of nonempty regular files did not behave as expected because existing data was not actually encrypted by the ioctl. In the case of ext4, the user could also trigger filesystem errors in ->empty_dir(), e.g. due to mismatched "directory" checksums when the kernel incorrectly tried to interpret a regular file as a directory. This bug affected ext4 with kernels v4.8-rc1 or later and f2fs with kernels v4.6 and later. It appears that older kernels only permitted directories and that the check was accidentally lost during the refactoring to share the file encryption code between ext4 and f2fs. This patch restores the !S_ISDIR() check that was present in older kernels. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Eric Biggers authored
On an ext4 or f2fs filesystem with file encryption supported, a user could set an encryption policy on any empty directory(*) to which they had readonly access. This is obviously problematic, since such a directory might be owned by another user and the new encryption policy would prevent that other user from creating files in their own directory (for example). Fix this by requiring inode_owner_or_capable() permission to set an encryption policy. This means that either the caller must own the file, or the caller must have the capability CAP_FOWNER. (*) Or also on any regular file, for f2fs v4.6 and later and ext4 v4.8-rc1 and later; a separate bug fix is coming for that.

Previously, without GSO, it was easy to identify it: if the chunk didn't fit and there was no data chunk in the packet yet, we could fragment at IP level. So if there was an auth chunk and we were bundling a big data chunk, it would fragment regardless of the size of the auth chunk. This also works for the context of PMTU reductions. But with GSO, we cannot distinguish such PMTU events anymore, as the packet is allowed to exceed PMTU. So we need another check: to ensure that the chunk that we are adding, actually fits the current PMTU. If it doesn't, trigger a flush and let it be fragmented at IP level in the next round.

track_pfn_insert() in vmf_insert_pfn_pmd() is marking dax mappings as uncacheable rendering them impractical for application usage. DAX-pte mappings are cached and the goal of establishing DAX-pmd mappings is to attain more performance, not dramatically less (3 orders of magnitude). track_pfn_insert() relies on a previous call to reserve_memtype() to establish the expected page_cache_mode for the range. While memremap() arranges for reserve_memtype() to be called, devm_memremap_pages() does not. So, teach track_pfn_insert() and untrack_pfn() how to handle tracking without a vma, and arrange for devm_memremap_pages() to establish the write-back-cache reservation in the memtype tree.
