commit 80cd5479 upstream. The driver was accessing its struct usb_interface from its release() callback without holding a reference. This would lead to a use-after-free whenever debugging was enabled and the device was disconnected while its character device was open.

commit edc4746f upstream. A recent fix addressing a deadlock on disconnect introduced a new bug by moving the present flag out of the critical section protected by the driver-data mutex. This could lead to a racing release() freeing the driver data before disconnect() is done with it. Due to insufficient locking a related use-after-free could be triggered also before the above mentioned commit. Specifically, the driver needs to hold the driver-data mutex also while checking the opened flag at disconnect().

commit b2fa7bae upstream. The driver was using its struct usb_device pointer as an inverted disconnected flag, but was setting it to NULL before making sure all completion handlers had run. This could lead to a NULL-pointer dereference in a number of dev_dbg statements in the completion handlers which relies on said pointer. The pointer was also dereferenced unconditionally in a dev_dbg statement release() something which would lead to a NULL-deref whenever a device was disconnected before the final character-device close if debugging was enabled. Fix this by unconditionally stopping all I/O and preventing resubmissions by poisoning the interrupt URBs at disconnect and using a dedicated disconnected flag. This also makes sure that all I/O has completed by the time the disconnect callback returns.

commit 44efc269 upstream. The driver was clearing its struct usb_device pointer, which it used as an inverted disconnected flag, before deregistering the character device and without serialising against racing release(). This could lead to a use-after-free if a racing release() callback observes the cleared pointer and frees the driver data before disconnect() is finished with it. This could also lead to NULL-pointer dereferences in a racing open().

commit ac343366 upstream. After commit f7fac17c ("xhci: Convert xhci_handshake() to use readl_poll_timeout_atomic()"), ASMedia xHCI may fail to suspend. Although the algorithms are essentially the same, the old max timeout is (usec + usec * time of doing readl()), and the new max timeout is just usec, which is much less than the old one. Increase the timeout to make ASMedia xHCI able to suspend again.

commit 8de66b0e upstream. The system can hit a deadlock if an xhci adapter breaks while initializing. The deadlock is between two threads: thread 1 is tearing down the adapter and is stuck in usb_unlocked_disable_lpm waiting to lock the hcd->handwidth_mutex. Thread 2 is holding this mutex (while still trying to add a usb device), but is stuck in xhci_endpoint_reset waiting for a stop or config command to complete. A reboot is required to resolve. It turns out when calling xhci_queue_stop_endpoint and xhci_queue_configure_endpoint in xhci_endpoint_reset, the return code is not checked for errors. If the timing is right and the adapter dies just before either of these commands get issued, we hang indefinitely waiting for a completion on a command that didn't get issued. This wasn't a problem before the following fix because we didn't send commands in xhci_endpoint_reset: commit f5249461 ("xhci: Clear the host side toggle manually when endpoint is soft reset") With the patch I am submitting, a duration test which breaks adapters during initialization (and which deadlocks with the standard kernel) runs without issue.

commit 5c290a5e upstream.

The driver was using its struct usb_interface pointer as an inverted disconnected flag, but was setting it to NULL without making sure all code paths that used it were done with it. Before commit ef61eb43 ("USB: yurex: Fix protection fault after device removal") this included the interrupt-in completion handler, but there are further accesses in dev_err and dev_dbg statements in yurex_write() and the driver-data destructor (sic!). Fix this by unconditionally stopping also the control URB at disconnect and by using a dedicated disconnected flag.

commit 32a0721c upstream. According to Greg KH, it has been generally agreed that when a USB driver encounters an unknown error (or one it can't handle directly), it should just give up instead of going into a potentially infinite retry loop. The three codes -EPROTO, -EILSEQ, and -ETIME fall into this category. They can be caused by bus errors such as packet loss or corruption, attempting to communicate with a disconnected device, or by malicious firmware. Nowadays the extent of packet loss or corruption is negligible, so it should be safe for a driver to give up whenever one of these errors occurs. Although the yurex driver handles -EILSEQ errors in this way, it doesn't do the same for -EPROTO (as discovered by the syzbot fuzzer) or other unrecognized errors. This patch adjusts the driver so that it doesn't log an error message for -EPROTO or -ETIME, and it doesn't retry after any errors.

[ Upstream commit 38fb6d0e ] The kernel mount_block_root() function expects -EACESS or -EINVAL for a unmountable filesystem when trying to mount the root with different filesystem types. However, in 5.3-rc1 the behavior when F2FS code cannot find valid block changed to return -EFSCORRUPTED(-EUCLEAN), and this error code makes mount_block_root() fail when trying to probe F2FS. When the magic number of the superblock mismatches, it has a high probability that it's just not a F2FS. In this case return -EINVAL seems to be a better result, and this return value can make mount_block_root() probing work again. Return -EINVAL when the superblock has magic mismatch, -EFSCORRUPTED in other cases (the magic matches but the superblock cannot be recognized).

commit 20bb759a upstream. Calling 'panic()' on a kernel with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y can leave the calling CPU in an infinite loop, but with interrupts and preemption enabled. From this state, userspace can continue to be scheduled, despite the system being "dead" as far as the kernel is concerned. This is easily reproducible on arm64 when booting with "nosmp" on the command line; a couple of shell scripts print out a periodic "Ping" message whilst another triggers a crash by writing to /proc/sysrq-trigger: | sysrq: Trigger a crash | Kernel panic - not syncing: sysrq triggered crash | CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 5.2.15 #1 | Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) | Call trace: | dump_backtrace+0x0/0x148 | show_stack+0x14/0x20 | dump_stack+0xa0/0xc4 | panic+0x140/0x32c | sysrq_handle_reboot+0x0/0x20 | __handle_sysrq+0x124/0x190 | write_sysrq_trigger+0x64/0x88 | proc_reg_write+0x60/0xa8 | __vfs_write+0x18/0x40 | vfs_write+0xa4/0x1b8 | ksys_write+0x64/0xf0 | __arm64_sys_write+0x14/0x20 | el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0xb0/0x168 | el0_svc_handler+0x28/0x78 | el0_svc+0x8/0xc | Kernel Offset: disabled | CPU features: 0x0002,24002004 | Memory Limit: none | ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: sysrq triggered crash ]--- | Ping 2! | Ping 1! | Ping 1! | Ping 2! The issue can also be triggered on x86 kernels if CONFIG_SMP=n, otherwise local interrupts are disabled in 'smp_send_stop()'. Disable preemption in 'panic()' before re-enabling interrupts.

commit f88eb7c0 upstream. We currently don't validate the beacon head, i.e. the header, fixed part and elements that are to go in front of the TIM element. This means that the variable elements there can be malformed, e.g. have a length exceeding the buffer size, but most downstream code from this assumes that this has already been checked.

commit 0f3b07f0 upstream. Rather than always iterating elements from frames with pure u8 pointers, add a type "struct element" that encapsulates the id/datalen/data format of them. Then, add the element iteration macros * for_each_element * for_each_element_id * for_each_element_extid which take, as their first 'argument', such a structure and iterate through a given u8 array interpreting it as elements. While at it and since we'll need it, also add * for_each_subelement * for_each_subelement_id * for_each_subelement_extid which instead of taking data/length just take an outer element and use its data/datalen. Also add for_each_element_completed() to determine if any of the loops above completed, i.e. it was able to parse all of the elements successfully and no data remained. Use for_each_element_id() in cfg80211_find_ie_match() as the first user of this. Signed-off-by:

commit 1004ce4c upstream. Synchronization is recommended before disabling the trace registers to prevent any start or stop points being speculative at the point of disabling the unit (section 7.3.77 of ARM IHI 0064D). Synchronization is also recommended after programming the trace registers to ensure all updates are committed prior to normal code resuming (section 4.3.7 of ARM IHI 0064D). Let's ensure these syncronization points are present in the code and clearly commented. Note that we could rely on the barriers in CS_LOCK and coresight_disclaim_device_unlocked or the context switch to user space - however coresight may be of use in the kernel. On armv8 the mb macro is defined as dsb(sy) - Given that the etm4x is only used on armv8 let's directly use dsb(sy) instead of mb(). This removes some ambiguity and makes it easier to correlate the code with the TRM. Signed-off-by:

commit cc3a7bfe upstream. Today, put_compat_statfs64() disallows nearly any field value over 2^32 if f_bsize is only 32 bits, but that makes no sense. compat_statfs64 is there for the explicit purpose of providing 64-bit fields for f_files, f_ffree, etc. And f_bsize is always only 32 bits. As a result, 32-bit userspace gets -EOVERFLOW for i.e. large file counts even with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 set. In reality, only f_bsize and f_frsize can legitimately overflow (fields like f_type and f_namelen should never be large), so test only those fields. This bug was discussed at length some time ago, and this is the proposal Al suggested at https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/8/6/640. It seemed to get dropped amid the discussion of other related changes, but this part seems obviously correct on its own, so I've picked it up and sent it, for expediency.

If the mitigation is disabled, or the firmware isn't responding then return the expected machine state based on a whitelist of known good cores. Given a heterogeneous machine, the overall machine vulnerability defaults to safe but is reset to unsafe when we miss the whitelist and the firmware doesn't explicitly tell us the core is safe. In order to make that work we delay transitioning to vulnerable until we know the firmware isn't responding to avoid a case where we miss the whitelist, but the firmware goes ahead and reports the core is not vulnerable.
