commit a3a87844 upstream. When a key is being garbage collected, it's key->user would get put before the ->destroy() callback is called, where the key is removed from it's respective tracking structures. This leaves a key hanging in a semi-invalid state which leaves a window open for a different task to try an access key->user. An example is find_keyring_by_name() which would dereference key->user for a key that is in the process of being garbage collected (where key->user was freed but ->destroy() wasn't called yet - so it's still present in the linked list). This would cause either a panic, or corrupt memory. Fixes CVE-2014-9529. Signed-off-by:

commit 38a1dfda upstream. Commit 0dbc6078 ('x86, build, pci: Fix PCI_MSI build on !SMP') introduced the dependency that X86_UP_APIC is only available when PCI_MSI is false. This effectively prevents PCI_MSI support on 32bit UP systems because it disables both APIC and IO-APIC. But APIC support is architecturally required for PCI_MSI. The intention of the patch was to enforce APIC support when PCI_MSI is enabled, but failed to do so. Remove the !PCI_MSI dependency from X86_UP_APIC and enforce X86_UP_APIC when PCI_MSI support is enabled on 32bit UP systems.

commit 3669ef9f upstream. The Witcher 2 did something like this to allocate a TLS segment index: struct user_desc u_info; bzero(&u_info, sizeof(u_info)); u_info.entry_number = (uint32_t)-1; syscall(SYS_set_thread_area, &u_info); Strictly speaking, this code was never correct. It should have set read_exec_only and seg_not_present to 1 to indicate that it wanted to find a free slot without putting anything there, or it should have put something sensible in the TLS slot if it wanted to allocate a TLS entry for real. The actual effect of this code was to allocate a bogus segment that could be used to exploit espfix. The set_thread_area hardening patches changed the behavior, causing set_thread_area to return -EINVAL and crashing the game. This changes set_thread_area to interpret this as a request to find a free slot and to leave it empty, which isn't *quite* what the game expects but should be close enough to keep it working. In particular, using the code above to allocate two segments will allocate the same segment both times. According to FrostbittenKing on Github, this fixes The Witcher 2. If this somehow still causes problems, we could instead allocate a limit==0 32-bit data segment, but that seems rather ugly to me.

commit e30ab185 upstream. 32-bit programs don't have an lm bit in their ABI, so they can't reliably cause LDT_empty to return true without resorting to memset. They shouldn't need to do this.

commit 52045217 upstream. Many users see this message when booting without knowning that it is of no importance and that TSC calibration may have succeeded by another way. As explained by Paul Bolle in http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1348488259.1436.22.camel@x61.thuisdomein "Fast TSC calibration failed" should not be considered as an error since other calibration methods are being tried afterward.

commit 8c38d28b upstream. EXYNOS4_MCT_L_MASK is defined as 0xffffff00, so applying this bitmask produces a number outside the range 0x00 to 0xff, which always results in execution of the default switch statement. Obviously this is wrong and git history shows that the bitmask inversion was incorrectly set during a refactoring of the MCT code. Fix this by putting the inversion at the correct position again.

commit 9b1087aa upstream. When changing flags in the CAN drivers ctrlmode the provided new content has to be checked whether the bits are allowed to be changed. The bits that are to be changed are given as a bitfield in cm->mask. Therefore checking against cm->flags is wrong as the content can hold any kind of values. The iproute2 tool sets the bits in cm->mask and cm->flags depending on the detected command line options. To be robust against bogus user space applications additionally sanitize the provided flags with the provided mask. Cc: Wolfgang Grandegger <wg@grandegger.com> Signed-off-by:

commit 378ff1a5 upstream. It really needs to check that src is non-directory *and* use {un,}lock_two_nodirectories(). As it is, it's trivial to cause double-lock (ioctl(fd, CIFS_IOC_COPYCHUNK_FILE, fd)) and if the last argument is an fd of directory, we are asking for trouble by violating the locking order - all directories go before all non-directories. If the last argument is an fd of parent directory, it has 50% odds of locking child before parent, which will cause AB-BA deadlock if we race with unlink(). Signed-off-by:

commit 38bdf45f upstream. On Armada XP, 375 and 38x the MBus window 13 has the remap capability, like windows 0 to 7. However, the mvebu-mbus driver isn't currently taking into account this special case, which means that when window 13 is actually used, the remap registers are left to 0, making the device using this MBus window unavailable. As a minimal fix for stable, don't use window 13. A full fix will follow later. Fixes: fddddb52 ("bus: introduce an Marvell EBU MBus driver") Reviewed-by:

commit a59db676 upstream. Introduce a new variable to count the number of allocated migration structures. The existing variable cache->nr_migrations became overloaded. It was used to: i) track of the number of migrations in flight for the purposes of quiescing during suspend. ii) to estimate the amount of background IO occuring. Recent discard changes meant that REQ_DISCARD bios are processed with a migration. Discards are not background IO so nr_migrations was not incremented. However this could cause quiescing to complete early. (i) is now handled with a new variable cache->nr_allocated_migrations. cache->nr_migrations has been renamed cache->nr_io_migrations. cleanup_migration() is now called free_io_migration(), since it decrements that variable. Also, remove the unused cache->next_migration variable that got replaced with with prealloc_structs a while ago. Signed-off-by:

commit 9b1cc9f2 upstream. If a DM table is reloaded with an inactive table when the device is not suspended (normal procedure for LVM2), then there will be two dm-bufio objects that can diverge. This can lead to a situation where the inactive table uses bufio to read metadata at the same time the active table writes metadata -- resulting in the inactive table having stale metadata buffers once it is promoted to the active table slot. Fix this by using reference counting and a global list of cache metadata objects to ensure there is only one metadata object per metadata device. Signed-off-by:

commit 6cdb0817 upstream. Fixes a race condition in abort handling that was injected when multiple interrupt support was added. When only a single interrupt is present, the adapter guarantees it will send responses for aborted commands prior to the response for the abort command itself. With multiple interrupts, these responses generally come back on different interrupts, so we need to ensure the abort thread waits until the aborted command is complete so we don't perform a double completion. This race condition was being hit frequently in environments which were triggering command timeouts, which was resulting in a double completion causing a kernel oops. Signed-off-by:

commit c3e59ee4 upstream. Reports against the TL-WDN4800 card indicate that PCI bus reset of this Atheros device cause system lock-ups and resets. I've also been able to confirm this behavior on multiple systems. The device never returns from reset and attempts to access config space of the device after reset result in hangs. Blacklist bus reset for the device to avoid this issue. [bhelgaas: This regression appeared in v3.14.

commit f331a859 upstream. Enable a mechanism for devices to quirk that they do not behave when doing a PCI bus reset.

commit ce751452 upstream. It is possible for ata_sff_flush_pio_task() to set ap->hsm_task_state to HSM_ST_IDLE in between the time __ata_sff_port_intr() checks for HSM_ST_IDLE and before it calls ata_sff_hsm_move() causing ata_sff_hsm_move() to BUG(). This problem is hard to reproduce making this patch hard to verify, but this fix will prevent the race. I have not been able to reproduce the problem, but here is a crash dump from a 2.6.32 kernel. On examining the ata port's state, its hsm_task_state field has a value of HSM_ST_IDLE: crash> struct ata_port.hsm_task_state ffff881c1121c000 hsm_task_state = 0 Normally, this should not be possible as ata_sff_hsm_move() was called from ata_sff_host_intr(), which checks hsm_task_state and won't call ata_sff_hsm_move() if it has a HSM_ST_IDLE value.

commit e512d56c upstream. git commit 37f81fa1 "n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write" surfaced a bug in the 3215 device driver. In combination this broke tab expansion for tty ouput. The cause is an asymmetry in the behaviour of tty3215_ops->write vs tty3215_ops->put_char. The put_char function scans for '\t' but the write function does not. As the driver has logic for the '\t' expansion remove XTABS from c_oflag of the initial termios as well. Reported-by:

Multiple crash dumps showed: The inode->i_state == 0x60 and i_count == 0 and i_sb_list would point back at itself. As this is not the value of list upon entry to the function, the kernel never exits the loop. To help narrow down problem, the call to list_del_init in inode_sb_list_del was changed to list_del. This poisons the pointers in the i_sb_list and causes a kernel to panic if it transverse a freed inode. Subsequent stress testing paniced in fsnotify_unmount_inodes at the bottom of the list_for_each_entry_safe loop showing next_i had become free. We believe the root cause of the problem is that next_i is being freed during the window of time that the list_for_each_entry_safe loop temporarily releases inode_sb_list_lock to call fsnotify and fsnotify_inode_delete. The code in fsnotify_unmount_inodes attempts to prevent the freeing of inode and next_i by calling __iget. However, the code doesn't do the __iget call on next_i if i_count == 0 or if i_state & (I_FREEING | I_WILL_FREE) The patch addresses this issue by advancing next_i in the above two cases until we either find a next_i which we can __iget or we reach the end of the list. This makes the handling of next_i more closely match the handling of the variable "inode." The time to reproduce the hang is highly variable (from hours to days.) We ran the stress test on a 3.10 kernel with the proposed patch for a week without failure. During list_for_each_entry_safe, next_i is becoming free causing the loop to never terminate. Advance next_i in those cases where __iget is not done. Signed-off-by:
