Each control gets automatically assigned its numids when the control is created. The allocation is done by incrementing the numid by the amount of allocated numids per allocation. This means that excessive creation and destruction of controls (e.g. via SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_ADD/REMOVE) can cause the id to eventually overflow. Currently when this happens for the control that caused the overflow kctl->id.numid + kctl->count will also over flow causing it to be smaller than kctl->id.numid. Most of the code assumes that this is something that can not happen, so we need to make sure that it won't happen Signed-off-by:

A control that is visible on the card->controls list can be freed at any time. This means we must not access any of its memory while not holding the controls_rw_lock. Otherwise we risk a use after free access. Signed-off-by:

There are two issues with the current implementation for replacing user controls. The first is that the code does not check if the control is actually a user control and neither does it check if the control is owned by the process that tries to remove it. That allows userspace applications to remove arbitrary controls, which can cause a user after free if a for example a driver does not expect a control to be removed from under its feed. The second issue is that on one hand when a control is replaced the user_ctl_count limit is not checked and on the other hand the user_ctl_count is increased (even though the number of user controls does not change). This allows userspace, once the user_ctl_count limit as been reached, to repeatedly replace a control until user_ctl_count overflows. Once that happens new controls can be added effectively bypassing the user_ctl_count limit. Both issues can be fixed by instead of open-coding the removal of the control that is to be replaced to use snd_ctl_remove_user_ctl(). This function does proper permission checks as well as decrements user_ctl_count after the control has been removed. Note that by using snd_ctl_remove_user_ctl() the check which returns -EBUSY at beginning of the function if the control already exists is removed. This is not a problem though since the check is quite useless, because the lock that is protecting the control list is released between the check and before adding the new control to the list, which means that it is possible that a different control with the same settings is added to the list after the check. Luckily there is another check that is done while holding the lock in snd_ctl_add(), so we'll rely on that to make sure that the same control is not added twice. Signed-off-by:

The user-control put and get handlers as well as the tlv do not protect against concurrent access from multiple threads. Since the state of the control is not updated atomically it is possible that either two write operations or a write and a read operation race against each other. Both can lead to arbitrary memory disclosure. This patch introduces a new lock that protects user-controls from concurrent access. Since applications typically access controls sequentially than in parallel a single lock per card should be fine. Signed-off-by:

Whilst native arm64 applications don't have the 16-bit UID/GID syscalls wired up, compat tasks can still access them. The 16-bit wrappers for these syscalls use __kernel_old_uid_t and __kernel_old_gid_t, which must be 16-bit data types to maintain compatibility with the 16-bit UIDs used by compat applications. This patch defines 16-bit __kernel_old_{gid,uid}_t types for arm64 instead of using the 32-bit types provided by asm-generic. Signed-off-by:Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Acked-by:

Our compat PTRACE_POKEUSR implementation simply passes the user data to regset_copy_from_user after some simple range checking. Unfortunately, the data in question has already been copied to the kernel stack by this point, so the subsequent access_ok check fails and the ptrace request returns -EFAULT. This causes problems tracing fork() with older versions of strace. This patch briefly changes the fs to KERNEL_DS, so that the access_ok check passes even with a kernel address. Signed-off-by:

Leandro Liptak reports that his HASEE E200 computer hangs when we ask the BIOS to hand over control of the EHCI host controller. This definitely sounds like a bug in the BIOS, but at the moment there is no way to fix it. This patch works around the problem by avoiding the handoff whenever the motherboard and BIOS version match those of Leandro's computer. Signed-off-by:

The 'guilty' commit changed the order of cleanup code so that nsproxy->mnt_ns was not already available for Apparmor. Discussion about the issue with Al Viro and Eric W. Biederman suggested that kernel_read() is too high-level for IMA. Another issue, except security checking, that was identified is mandatory locking. kernel_read honors it as well and it might prevent IMA from calculating necessary hash. It was suggested to use simplified version of the function without security and locking checks. This patch introduces special version ima_kernel_read(), which skips security and mandatory locking checking. It prevents the kernel oops to happen. Signed-off-by:

DM thinp already checks whether the discard_granularity of the data device is a factor of the thin-pool block size. But when using the dm-thin-pool's discard passdown support, DM thinp was not selecting the max of the underlying data device's discard_granularity and the thin-pool's block size. Update set_discard_limits() to set discard_granularity to the max of these values. This enables blkdev_issue_discard() to properly align the discards that are sent to the DM thin device on a full block boundary. As such each discard will now cover an entire DM thin-pool block and the block will be reclaimed. Reported-by:

On some AR934x based systems, where the frequency of the AHB bus is relatively high, the built-in watchdog causes a spurious restart when it gets enabled. The possible cause of these restarts is that the timeout value written into the TIMER register does not reaches the hardware in time.

The touchpad on the GIGABYTE U2442 not only stops communicating when we try to set bit 3 (enable real hardware resolution) of reg_10, but on some BIOS versions also when we set bit 1 (enable two finger mode auto correct). I've asked the original reporter of: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61151 To check that not setting bit 1 does not lead to any adverse effects on his model / BIOS revision, and it does not, so this commit fixes the touchpad not working on these versions by simply never setting bit 1 for laptop models with the no_hw_res quirk.

At least the Dell Vostro 5470 elantech *clickpad* reports right button clicks when clicked in the right bottom area: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1103528 This is different from how (elantech) clickpads normally operate, normally no matter where the user clicks on the pad the pad always reports a left button event, since there is only 1 hardware button beneath the path. It looks like Dell has put 2 buttons under the pad, one under each bottom corner, causing this. Since this however still clearly is a real clickpad hardware-wise, we still want to report it as such to userspace, so that things like finger movement in the bottom area can be properly ignored as it should be on clickpads. So deal with this weirdness by simply mapping a right click to a left click on elantech clickpads. As an added advantage this is something which we can simply do on all elantech clickpads, so no need to add special quirks for this weird model. Reported-and-tested-by:

idr_replace() open-codes the logic to calculate the maximum valid ID given the height of the idr tree; unfortunately, the open-coded logic doesn't account for the fact that the top layer may have unused slots and over-shifts the limit to zero when the tree is at its maximum height. The following test code shows it fails to replace the value for id=((1<<27)+42): static void test5(void) { int id; DEFINE_IDR(test_idr); #define TEST5_START ((1<<27)+42) /* use the highest layer */ printk(KERN_INFO "Start test5\n"); id = idr_alloc(&test_idr, (void *)1, TEST5_START, 0, GFP_KERNEL); BUG_ON(id != TEST5_START); TEST_BUG_ON(idr_replace(&test_idr, (void *)2, TEST5_START) != (void *)1); idr_destroy(&test_idr); printk(KERN_INFO "End of test5\n"); } Fix the bug by using idr_max() which correctly takes into account the maximum allowed shift. sub_alloc() shares the same problem and may incorrectly fail with -EAGAIN; however, this bug doesn't affect correct operation because idr_get_empty_slot(), which already uses idr_max(), retries with the increased @id in such cases.

When tracing a process in another pid namespace, it's important for fork event messages to contain the child's pid as seen from the tracer's pid namespace, not the parent's. Otherwise, the tracer won't be able to correlate the fork event with later SIGTRAP signals it receives from the child. We still risk a race condition if a ptracer from a different pid namespace attaches after we compute the pid_t value. However, sending a bogus fork event message in this unlikely scenario is still a vast improvement over the status quo where we always send bogus fork event messages to debuggers in a different pid namespace than the forking process.

The rtc user must wait at least 1 sec between each time/calandar update (see atmel's datasheet chapter "Updating Time/Calendar"). Use the 1Hz interrupt to update the at91_rtc_upd_rdy flag and wait for the at91_rtc_wait_upd_rdy event if the rtc is not ready. This patch fixes a deadlock in an uninterruptible wait when the RTC is updated more than once every second. AFAICT the bug is here from the beginning, but I think we should at least backport this fix to 3.10 and the following longterm and stable releases. Signed-off-by:

But because it is exiting, nobody is actually waiting on it to make reclaim progress anymore, and it's nothing but a regular thread at this point. Be tidy and strip it of all its powers (PF_MEMALLOC, PF_SWAPWRITE, PF_KSWAPD, and the lockdep reclaim state) before returning from the thread function.

Avoid that closing /dev/infiniband/umad<n> or /dev/infiniband/issm<n> triggers a use-after-free. __fput() invokes f_op->release() before it invokes cdev_put(). Make sure that the ib_umad_device structure is freed by the cdev_put() call instead of f_op->release(). This avoids that changing the port mode from IB into Ethernet and back to IB followed by restarting opensmd triggers the following kernel oops: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810cc65c>] [<ffffffff810cc65c>] module_put+0x2c/0x170 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81190f20>] cdev_put+0x20/0x30 [<ffffffff8118e2ce>] __fput+0x1ae/0x1f0 [<ffffffff8118e35e>] ____fput+0xe/0x10 [<ffffffff810723bc>] task_work_run+0xac/0xe0 [<ffffffff81002a9f>] do_notify_resume+0x9f/0xc0 [<ffffffff814b8398>] int_signal+0x12/0x17 Reference: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75051Signed-off-by:Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Reviewed-by:

This patch adds an explicit check in chap_server_compute_md5() to ensure the CHAP_C value received from the initiator during mutual authentication does not match the original CHAP_C provided by the target. This is in line with RFC-3720, section 8.2.1: Originators MUST NOT reuse the CHAP challenge sent by the Responder for the other direction of a bidirectional authentication. Responders MUST check for this condition and close the iSCSI TCP connection if it occurs. Reported-by:

commit 8f9c0119 (compat: fs: Generic compat_sys_sendfile implementation) changed the PowerPC 64bit sendfile call from sys_sendile64 to sys_sendfile. Unfortunately this broke sendfile of lengths greater than 2G because sys_sendfile caps at MAX_NON_LFS. Restore what we had previously which fixes the bug. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

We had a mix & match of flags used when creating legacy ports depending on where we found them in the device-tree. Among others we were missing UPF_SKIP_TEST for some kind of ISA ports which is a problem as quite a few UARTs out there don't support the loopback test (such as a lot of BMCs). Let's pick the set of flags used by the SoC code and generalize it which means autoconf, no loopback test, irq maybe shared and fixed port. Sending to stable as the lack of UPF_SKIP_TEST is breaking serial on some machines so I want this back into distros Signed-off-by:

When Linux sees an "action optional" machine check (where h/w has reported an error that is not in the current execution path) we generally do not want to signal a process, since most processes do not have a SIGBUS handler - we'd just prematurely terminate the process for a problem that they might never actually see. task_early_kill() decides whether to consider a process - and it checks whether this specific process has been marked for early signals with "prctl", or if the system administrator has requested early signals for all processes using /proc/sys/vm/memory_failure_early_kill. But for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED case we must not defer. The error is in the execution path of the current thread so we must send the SIGBUS immediatley. Fix by passing a flag argument through collect_procs*() to task_early_kill() so it knows whether we can defer or must take action. Signed-off-by:

When a thread in a multi-threaded application hits a machine check because of an uncorrectable error in memory - we want to send the SIGBUS with si.si_code = BUS_MCEERR_AR to that thread. Currently we fail to do that if the active thread is not the primary thread in the process. collect_procs() just finds primary threads and this test: if ((flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED) && t == current) { will see that the thread we found isn't the current thread and so send a si.si_code = BUS_MCEERR_AO to the primary (and nothing to the active thread at this time). We can fix this by checking whether "current" shares the same mm with the process that collect_procs() said owned the page. If so, we send the SIGBUS to current (with code BUS_MCEERR_AR).

The test_bit operations in get/set pageblock flags are expensive. This patch reads the bitmap on a word basis and use shifts and masks to isolate the bits of interest. Similarly masks are used to set a local copy of the bitmap and then use cmpxchg to update the bitmap if there have been no other changes made in parallel. In a test running dd onto tmpfs the overhead of the pageblock-related functions went from 1.27% in profiles to 0.5%. In addition to the performance benefits, this patch closes races that are possible between: a) get_ and set_pageblock_migratetype(), where get_pageblock_migratetype() reads part of the bits before and other part of the bits after set_pageblock_migratetype() has updated them. b) set_pageblock_migratetype() and set_pageblock_skip(), where the non-atomic read-modify-update set bit operation in set_pageblock_skip() will cause lost updates to some bits changed in the set_pageblock_migratetype(). Joonsoo Kim first reported the case a) via code inspection. Vlastimil Babka's testing with a debug patch showed that either a) or b) occurs roughly once per mmtests' stress-highalloc benchmark (although not necessarily in the same pageblock). Furthermore during development of unrelated compaction patches, it was observed that frequent calls to {start,undo}_isolate_page_range() the race occurs several thousands of times and has resulted in NULL pointer dereferences in move_freepages() and free_one_page() in places where free_list[migratetype] is manipulated by e.g. list_move(). Further debugging confirmed that migratetype had invalid value of 6, causing out of bounds access to the free_list array. That confirmed that the race exist, although it may be extremely rare, and currently only fatal where page isolation is performed due to memory hot remove. Races on pageblocks being updated by set_pageblock_migratetype(), where both old and new migratetype are lower MIGRATE_RESERVE, currently cannot result in an invalid value being observed, although theoretically they may still lead to unexpected creation or destruction of MIGRATE_RESERVE pageblocks. Furthermore, things could get suddenly worse when memory isolation is used more, or when new migratetypes are added. After this patch, the race has no longer been observed in testing.

Eric has reported that he can see task(s) stuck in memcg OOM handler regularly. The only way out is to echo 0 > $GROUP/memory.oom_control His usecase is: - Setup a hierarchy with memory and the freezer (disable kernel oom and have a process watch for oom). - In that memory cgroup add a process with one thread per cpu. - In one thread slowly allocate once per second I think it is 16M of ram and mlock and dirty it (just to force the pages into ram and stay there). - When oom is achieved loop: * attempt to freeze all of the tasks. * if frozen send every task SIGKILL, unfreeze, remove the directory in cgroupfs. Eric has then pinpointed the issue to be memcg specific. All tasks are sitting on the memcg_oom_waitq when memcg oom is disabled. Those that have received fatal signal will bypass the charge and should continue on their way out. The tricky part is that the exit path might trigger a page fault (e.g. exit_robust_list), thus the memcg charge, while its memcg is still under OOM because nobody has released any charges yet. Unlike with the in-kernel OOM handler the exiting task doesn't get TIF_MEMDIE set so it doesn't shortcut further charges of the killed task and falls to the memcg OOM again without any way out of it as there are no fatal signals pending anymore. This patch fixes the issue by checking PF_EXITING early in mem_cgroup_try_charge and bypass the charge same as if it had fatal signal pending or TIF_MEMDIE set. Normally exiting tasks (aka not killed) will bypass the charge now but this should be OK as the task is leaving and will release memory and increasing the memory pressure just to release it in a moment seems dubious wasting of cycles. Besides that charges after exit_signals should be rare. I am bringing this patch again (rebased on the current mmotm tree). I hope we can move forward finally. If there is still an opposition then I would really appreciate a concurrent approach so that we can discuss alternatives. http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/77650 is a reference to the followup discussion when the patch has been dropped from the mmotm last time.

throttle_direct_reclaim() is meant to trigger during swap-over-network during which the min watermark is treated as a pfmemalloc reserve. It throttes on the first node in the zonelist but this is flawed. The user-visible impact is that a process running on CPU whose local memory node has no ZONE_NORMAL will stall for prolonged periods of time, possibly indefintely. This is due to throttle_direct_reclaim thinking the pfmemalloc reserves are depleted when in fact they don't exist on that node. On a NUMA machine running a 32-bit kernel (I know) allocation requests from CPUs on node 1 would detect no pfmemalloc reserves and the process gets throttled. This patch adjusts throttling of direct reclaim to throttle based on the first node in the zonelist that has a usable ZONE_NORMAL or lower zone.

Right, since conversion to mutex then rwsem, we should not put_anon_vma() from inside an rcu_read_lock()ed section: fix the two places that did so. And add might_sleep() to anon_vma_free(), as suggested by Peter Zijlstra. Fixes: 88c22088 ("mm: optimize page_lock_anon_vma() fast-path") Reported-by:
