commit 28a9bc68 upstream. When writing the code to allow per-station GTKs, I neglected to take into account the management frame keys (index 4 and 5) when freeing the station and only added code to free the first four data frame keys. Fix this by iterating the array of keys over the right length. Fixes: e31b8213 ("cfg80211/mac80211: allow per-station GTKs") Signed-off-by:

commit d025933e upstream. As multicast-frames can't be fragmented, "dot11MulticastReceivedFrameCount" stopped being incremented after the use-after-free fix. Furthermore, the RX-LED will be triggered by every multicast frame (which wouldn't happen before) which wouldn't allow the LED to rest at all. Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89431 which also had the patch. Fixes: b8fff407 ("mac80211: fix use-after-free in defragmentation") Signed-off-by:

commit b26bdde5 upstream. When loading encrypted-keys module, if the last check of aes_get_sizes() in init_encrypted() fails, the driver just returns an error without unregistering its key type. This results in the stale entry in the list. In addition to memory leaks, this leads to a kernel crash when registering a new key type later. This patch fixes the problem by swapping the calls of aes_get_sizes() and register_key_type(), and releasing resources properly at the error paths.

commit 3fb2f423 upstream. It turns out that there's a lurking ABI issue. GCC, when compiling this in a 32-bit program: struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = idx, .base_addr = base, .limit = 0xfffff, .seg_32bit = 1, .contents = 0, /* Data, grow-up */ .read_exec_only = 0, .limit_in_pages = 1, .seg_not_present = 0, .useable = 0, }; will leave .lm uninitialized. This means that anything in the kernel that reads user_desc.lm for 32-bit tasks is unreliable. Revert the .lm check in set_thread_area(). The value never did anything in the first place.

commit e4a68009 upstream. Commit d127e9c5 ("ARM: tegra: make tegra_resume can work with current and later chips") removed tegra_get_soc_id macro leaving used cpu register corrupted after branching to v7_invalidate_l1() and as result causing execution of unintended code on tegra20. Possibly it was expected that r6 would be SoC id func argument since common cpu reset handler is setting r6 before branching to tegra_resume(), but neither tegra20_lp1_reset() nor tegra30_lp1_reset() aren't setting r6 register before jumping to resume function. Fix it by re-adding macro. Fixes: d127e9c5 (ARM: tegra: make tegra_resume can work with current and later chips) Reviewed-by:

commit 2c43fd26 upstream. Discard bios and thin device deletion have the potential to release data blocks. If the thin-pool is in out-of-data-space mode, and blocks were released, transition the thin-pool back to full write mode. The correct time to do this is just after the thin-pool metadata commit. It cannot be done before the commit because the space maps will not allow immediate reuse of the data blocks in case there's a rollback following power failure. Signed-off-by:

commit 45ec9bd0 upstream. When the pool was in PM_OUT_OF_SPACE mode its process_prepared_discard function pointer was incorrectly being set to process_prepared_discard_passdown rather than process_prepared_discard. This incorrect function pointer meant the discard was being passed down, but not effecting the mapping. As such any discard that was issued, in an attempt to reclaim blocks, would not successfully free data space. Reported-by:

commit 445559cd upstream. When dm-bufio sets out to use the bio built into a struct dm_buffer to issue an IO, it needs to call bio_reset after it's done with the bio so that we can free things attached to the bio such as the integrity payload. Therefore, inject our own endio callback to take care of the bio_reset after calling submit_io's end_io callback. Test case: 1. modprobe scsi_debug delay=0 dif=1 dix=199 ato=1 dev_size_mb=300 2. Set up a dm-bufio client, e.g. dm-verity, on the scsi_debug device 3. Repeatedly read metadata and watch kmalloc-192 leak! Signed-off-by:

commit 66dfd101 upstream. Commit f1d2736c (mmc: dw_mmc: control card read threshold) added dw_mci_ctrl_rd_thld() with an unconditional write to the CDTHRCTL register at offset 0x100. However before version 240a, the FIFO region started at 0x100, so the write messes with the FIFO and completely breaks the driver. If the version id < 240A, return early from dw_mci_ctl_rd_thld() so as not to hit this problem. Fixes: f1d2736c (mmc: dw_mmc: control card read threshold) Signed-off-by:

commit 1a5fb99d upstream. Some boards with TC6393XB chip require full state restore during system resume thanks to chip's VCC being cut off during suspend (Sharp SL-6000 tosa is one of them). Failing to do so would result in ohci Oops on resume due to internal memory contentes being changed. Fail ohci suspend on tc6393xb is full state restore is required. Recommended workaround is to unbind tmio-ohci driver before suspend and rebind it after resume. Signed-off-by:

commit 4b5060dd upstream. If two threads call bitmap_unplug at the same time, then one might schedule all the writes, and the other might decide that it doesn't need to wait. But really it does. It rarely hurts to wait when it isn't absolutely necessary, and the current code doesn't really focus on 'absolutely necessary' anyway. So just wait always. This can potentially lead to data corruption if a crash happens at an awkward time and data was written before the bitmap was updated. It is very unlikely, but this should go to -stable just to be safe. Appropriate for any -stable. Signed-off-by:

commit 29fa6825 upstream. paravirt_enabled has the following effects: - Disables the F00F bug workaround warning. There is no F00F bug workaround any more because Linux's standard IDT handling already works around the F00F bug, but the warning still exists. This is only cosmetic, and, in any event, there is no such thing as KVM on a CPU with the F00F bug. - Disables 32-bit APM BIOS detection. On a KVM paravirt system, there should be no APM BIOS anyway. - Disables tboot. I think that the tboot code should check the CPUID hypervisor bit directly if it matters. - paravirt_enabled disables espfix32. espfix32 should *not* be disabled under KVM paravirt. The last point is the purpose of this patch. It fixes a leak of the high 16 bits of the kernel stack address on 32-bit KVM paravirt guests. Fixes CVE-2014-8134. Suggested-by:

commit 0e58af4e upstream. Users have no business installing custom code segments into the GDT, and segments that are not present but are otherwise valid are a historical source of interesting attacks. For completeness, block attempts to set the L bit. (Prior to this patch, the L bit would have been silently dropped.) This is an ABI break. I've checked glibc, musl, and Wine, and none of them look like they'll have any trouble. Note to stable maintainers: this is a hardening patch that fixes no known bugs. Given the possibility of ABI issues, this probably shouldn't be backported quickly. Signed-off-by:

Corrupted isofs image can contain arbitrarily long chain of these, including a one containing loop and thus causing kernel to end in an infinite loop when traversing these entries.

commit 338b522c upstream. With -cpu host, KVM reports LBR and extra_regs support, if the host has support. When the guest perf driver tries to access LBR or extra_regs MSR, it #GPs all MSR accesses,since KVM doesn't handle LBR and extra_regs support. So check the related MSRs access right once at initialization time to avoid the error access at runtime. For reproducing the issue, please build the kernel with CONFIG_KVM_INTEL = y (for host kernel). And CONFIG_PARAVIRT = n and CONFIG_KVM_GUEST = n (for guest kernel). Start the guest with -cpu host.

[ Upstream commit 9772b54c ] To accomodate for enough headroom for tunnels, use MAX_HEADER instead of LL_MAX_HEADER. Robert reported that he has hit after roughly 40hrs of trinity an skb_under_panic() via SCTP output path (see reference). I couldn't reproduce it from here, but not using MAX_HEADER as elsewhere in other protocols might be one possible cause for this. In any case, it looks like accounting on chunks themself seems to look good as the skb already passed the SCTP output path and did not hit any skb_over_panic(). Given tunneling was enabled in his .config, the headroom would have been expanded by MAX_HEADER in this case. Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit aebea2ba ] The mvneta driver sets the amount of Tx coalesce packets to 16 by default. Normally that does not cause any trouble since the driver uses a much larger Tx ring size (532 packets). But some sockets might run with very small buffers, much smaller than the equivalent of 16 packets. This is what ping is doing for example, by setting SNDBUF to 324 bytes rounded up to 2kB by the kernel. The problem is that there is no documented method to force a specific packet to emit an interrupt (eg: the last of the ring) nor is it possible to make the NIC emit an interrupt after a given delay. In this case, it causes trouble, because when ping sends packets over its raw socket, the few first packets leave the system, and the first 15 packets will be emitted without an IRQ being generated, so without the skbs being freed. And since the socket's buffer is small, there's no way to reach that amount of packets, and the ping ends up with "send: no buffer available" after sending 6 packets. Running with 3 instances of ping in parallel is enough to hide the problem, because with 6 packets per instance, that's 18 packets total, which is enough to grant a Tx interrupt before all are sent. The original driver in the LSP kernel worked around this design flaw by using a software timer to clean up the Tx descriptors. This timer was slow and caused terrible network performance on some Tx-bound workloads (such as routing) but was enough to make tools like ping work correctly. Instead here, we simply set the packet counts before interrupt to 1. This ensures that each packet sent will produce an interrupt. NAPI takes care of coalescing interrupts since the interrupt is disabled once generated. No measurable performance impact nor CPU usage were observed on small nor large packets, including when saturating the link on Tx, and this fixes tools like ping which rely on too small a send buffer. If one wants to increase this value for certain workloads where it is safe to do so, "ethtool -C $dev tx-frames" will override this default setting. This fix needs to be applied to stable kernels starting with 3.10. Tested-By:

[ Upstream commit 6fb2a756 ] Set the inner mac header to point to the GRE payload when doing GRO. This is needed if we proceed to send the packet through GRE GSO which now uses the inner mac header instead of inner network header to determine the length of encapsulation headers.
