      bpf: sockmap, fix use after free from sleep in psock backlog workqueue · bd95e678
      John Fastabend authored
      Backlog work for psock (sk_psock_backlog) might sleep while waiting
      for memory to free up when sending packets. However, while sleeping
      the socket may be closed and removed from the map by the user space
      side.
      
      This breaks an assumption in sk_stream_wait_memory, which expects the
      wait queue to be still there when it wakes up resulting in a
      use-after-free shown below. To fix his mark sendmsg as MSG_DONTWAIT
      to avoid the sleep altogether. We already set the flag for the
      sendpage case but we missed the case were sendmsg is used.
      Sockmap is currently the only user of skb_send_sock_locked() so only
      the sockmap paths should be impacted.

      bpf: sockmap, restore sk_write_space when psock gets dropped · 186bcc3d
      Jakub Sitnicki authored
      Once psock gets unlinked from its sock (sk_psock_drop), user-space can
      still trigger a call to sk->sk_write_space by setting TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT
      socket option. This causes a null-ptr-deref because we try to read
      psock->saved_write_space from sk_psock_write_space:

      bpf, riscv: clear target register high 32-bits for and/or/xor on ALU32 · fe121ee5
      Björn Töpel authored
      When using 32-bit subregisters (ALU32), the RISC-V JIT would not clear
      the high 32-bits of the target register and therefore generate
      incorrect code.
      
      E.g., in the following code:
      
        $ cat test.c
        unsigned int f(unsigned long long a,
        	       unsigned int b)
        {
        	return (unsigned int)a & b;
        }
      
        $ clang-9 -target bpf -O2 -emit-llvm -S test.c -o - | \
        	llc-9 -mattr=+alu32 -mcpu=v3
        	.text
        	.file	"test.c"
        	.globl	f
        	.p2align	3
        	.type	f,@function
        f:
        	r0 = r1
        	w0 &= w2
        	exit
        .Lfunc_end0:
        	.size	f, .Lfunc_end0-f
      
      The JIT would not clear the high 32-bits of r0 after the
      and-operation, which in this case might give an incorrect return
      value.
      
      After this patch, that is not the case, and the upper 32-bits are
      cleared.

      tipc: fix modprobe tipc failed after switch order of device registration · 526f5b85
      Junwei Hu authored
      Error message printed:
      modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'tipc': Address family not
      supported by protocol.
      when modprobe tipc after the following patch: switch order of
      device registration, commit 7e27e8d6
      ("tipc: switch order of device registration to fix a crash")
      
      Because sock_create_kern(net, AF_TIPC, ...) called by
      tipc_topsrv_create_listener() in the initialization process
      of tipc_init_net(), so tipc_socket_init() must be execute before that.
      Meanwhile, tipc_net_id need to be initialized when sock_create()
      called, and tipc_socket_init() is no need to be called for each namespace.
      
      I add a variable tipc_topsrv_net_ops, and split the
      register_pernet_subsys() of tipc into two parts, and split
      tipc_socket_init() with initialization of pernet params.
      
      By the way, I fixed resources rollback error when tipc_bcast_init()
      failed in tipc_init_net().

      Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 1ba3b5dc
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull perf tooling updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "perf.data:
      
         - Streaming compression of perf ring buffer into
           PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED user space records, resulting in ~3-5x
           perf.data file size reduction on variety of tested workloads what
           saves storage space on larger server systems where perf.data size
           can easily reach several tens or even hundreds of GiBs, especially
           when profiling with DWARF-based stacks and tracing of context
           switches.
      
        perf record:
      
         - Improve -user-regs/intr-regs suggestions to overcome errors
      
        perf annotate:
      
         - Remove hist__account_cycles() from callback, speeding up branch
           processing (perf record -b)
      
        perf stat:
      
         - Add a 'percore' event qualifier, e.g.: -e
           cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/, that sums up the event counts for
           both hardware threads in a core.
      
           We can already do this with --per-core, but it's often useful to do
           this together with other metrics that are collected per hardware
           thread.
      
           I.e. now its possible to do this per-event, and have it mixed with
           other events not aggregated by core.
      
        arm64:
      
         - Map Brahma-B53 CPUID to cortex-a53 events.
      
         - Add Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 events.
      
        csky:
      
         - Add DWARF register mappings for libdw, allowing --call-graph=dwarf
           to work on the C-SKY arch.
      
        x86:
      
         - Add support for recording and printing XMM registers, available,
           for instance, on Icelake.
      
         - Add uncore_upi (Intel's "Ultra Path Interconnect" events) JSON
           support. UPI replaced the Intel QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) in
           Xeon Skylake-SP.
      
        Intel PT:
      
         - Fix instructions sampling rate.
      
         - Timestamp fixes.
      
         - Improve exported-sql-viewer GUI, allowing, for instance, to
           copy'n'paste the trees, useful for e-mailing"
