commit 237f1233 upstream. atomic* value is signed value, and atomic* functions need also process signed value (parameter value, and return value), so 32-bit arm need use 'long long' instead of 'u64'. After replacement, it will also fix a bug for atomic64_add_negative(): "u64 is never less than 0". The modifications are: in vim, use "1,% s/\<u64\>/long long/g" command. remove '__aligned(8)' which is useless for 64-bit. be sure of 80 column limitation after replacement. Acked-by:

commit e38a5175 upstream. For 2-level page tables, PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS describes the offset between Linux PTEs and hardware PTEs. On LPAE, there is no distinction (since we have 64-bit descriptors with plenty of space) so PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS should be 0. Unfortunately, it is wrongly defined as PTRS_PER_PTE, meaning that current pte table flushing is off by a page. Luckily, all current LPAE implementations are SMP, so the hardware walker can snoop L1. This patch fixes the broken definition. Acked-by:

commit 5b20c5b2 upstream. On LPAE machines, PHYS_OFFSET evaluates to a phys_addr_t and this type is inherited by the PHYS_PFN_OFFSET definition as well. Consequently, the kernel build emits warnings of the form: init/main.c: In function 'start_kernel': init/main.c:588:7: warning: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'phys_addr_t' [-Wformat] This patch fixes this warning by pinning down the PFN type to unsigned long.

commit 20d6956d upstream. This patch fixes the alloc_init_pud() function to use phys_addr_t instead of unsigned long when passing in the phys argument. This is an extension to commit 97092e0c (ARM: pgtable: use phys_addr_t for physical addresses), which applied similar changes elsewhere in the ARM memory management code. Signed-off-by:

commit 926edcc7 upstream. This patch applies to PAGE_MASK, PMD_MASK, and PGDIR_MASK, where forcing unsigned long math truncates the mask at the 32-bits. This clearly does bad things on PAE systems. This patch fixes this problem by defining these masks as signed quantities. We then rely on sign extension to do the right thing. Signed-off-by:

commit dde1b651 upstream. For 3 levels of paging the PTE_EXT_NG bit will be set for user address ptes that are written to a page table but not for ptes created with mk_pte. This can cause some comparison tests made by pte_same to fail spuriously and lead to other problems. To correct this behaviour, we mask off PTE_EXT_NG for any pte that is present before running the comparison. Signed-off-by:

commit 02a54164 upstream. In Dual EMAC, the default VLANs are used to segregate Rx packets between the ports, so adding the same default VLAN to the switch will affect the normal packet transfers. So returning error on addition of dual EMAC default VLANs. Even if EMAC 0 default port VLAN is added to EMAC 1, it will lead to break dual EMAC port separations.

commit 83b0302d upstream. The regulator framework maintains a list of consumer regulators for a regulator device and protects it from concurrent access using the regulator device's mutex lock. In the case of regulator_put() the consumer is removed and regulator device's parameters are updated without holding the regulator device's mutex. This would lead to a race condition between the regulator_put() and any function which traverses the consumer list or modifies regulator device's parameters. Fix this race condition by holding the regulator device's mutex in case of regulator_put. Signed-off-by:

commit c957e8f0 upstream. Once the current message is finished, the driver notifies SPI core about this by calling spi_finalize_current_message(). This function queues next message to be transferred. If there are more messages in the queue, it is possible that the driver is asked to transfer the next message at this point. When spi_finalize_current_message() returns the driver clears the drv_data->cur_chip pointer to NULL. The problem is that if the driver already started the next message clearing drv_data->cur_chip will cause NULL pointer dereference which crashes the kernel like: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000048 IP: [<ffffffffa0022bc8>] cs_deassert+0x18/0x70 [spi_pxa2xx_platform] PGD 78bb8067 PUD 37712067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 11 Comm: ksoftirqd/1 Tainted: G O 3.18.0-rc4-mjo #5 Hardware name: Intel Corp.

commit 0fa7b391 upstream. In case userspace attempts to obtain key information for or delete a unicast key, this is currently erroneously rejected unless the driver sets the WIPHY_FLAG_IBSS_RSN flag. Apparently enough drivers do so it was never noticed. Fix that, and while at it fix a potential memory leak: the error path in the get_key() function was placed after allocating a message but didn't free it - move it to a better place.

commit ee8a1a8b upstream. We only support swap file calling nfs_direct_IO. However, application might be able to get to nfs_direct_IO if it toggles O_DIRECT flag during IO and it can deadlock because we grab inode->i_mutex in nfs_file_direct_write(). So return 0 for such case. Then the generic layer will fall back to buffer IO. Signed-off-by:

commit 0767e95b upstream. When the last subscriber to a "Through" port has been removed, the subscribed destination ports might still be active, so it would be wrong to send "all sounds off" and "reset controller" events to them. The proper place for such a shutdown would be the closing of the actual MIDI port (and close_substream() in rawmidi.c already can do this). This also fixes a deadlock when dummy_unuse() tries to send events to its own port that is already locked because it is being freed. Reported-by:

commit e6eb2eba upstream. The commit 3b8a3c01 ("powerpc/pseries: Fix endiannes issue in RTAS call from xmon") was fixing an endianness issue in the call made from xmon to RTAS. However, as Michael Ellerman noticed, this fix was not complete, the token value was not byte swapped. This lead to call an unexpected and most of the time unexisting RTAS function, which is silently ignored by RTAS. This fix addresses this hole. Reported-by:

commit e638642b upstream. While being in an ERROR_WARNING state, and receiving further bus error events with error counters still in the ERROR_WARNING range of 97-127 inclusive, the state handling code erroneously reverts back to ERROR_ACTIVE. Per the CAN standard, only revert to ERROR_ACTIVE when the error counters are less than 96. Moreover, in certain Kvaser models, the BUS_ERROR flag is always set along with undefined bits in the M16C status register. Thus use bitwise operators instead of full equality for checking that register against bus errors. Signed-off-by:

commit ded50066 upstream. Upon receiving a hardware event with the BUS_RESET flag set, the driver kills all of its anchored URBs and resets all of its transmit URB contexts. Unfortunately it does so under the context of URB completion handler `kvaser_usb_read_bulk_callback()', which is often called in an atomic context. While the device is flooded with many received error packets, usb_kill_urb() typically sleeps/reschedules till the transfer request of each killed URB in question completes, leading to the sleep in atomic bug. [3] In v2 submission of the original driver patch [1], it was stated that the URBs kill and tx contexts reset was needed since we don't receive any tx acknowledgments later and thus such resources will be locked down forever. Fortunately this is no longer needed since an earlier bugfix in this patch series is now applied: all tx URB contexts are reset upon CAN channel close. [2] Moreover, a BUS_RESET is now treated _exactly_ like a BUS_OFF event, which is the recommended handling method advised by the device manufacturer.

commit 108cef3a upstream. It is critical that fetch_block() and handle_stripe_dirtying() are consistent in their analysis of what needs to be loaded. Otherwise raid5 can wait forever for a block that won't be loaded. Currently when writing to a RAID5 that is resyncing, to a location beyond the resync offset, handle_stripe_dirtying chooses a reconstruct-write cycle, but fetch_block() assumes a read-modify-write, and a lockup can happen. So treat that case just like RAID6, just as we do in handle_stripe_dirtying. RAID6 always does reconstruct-write. This bug was introduced when the behaviour of handle_stripe_dirtying was changed in 3.7, so the patch is suitable for any kernel since, though it will need careful merging for some versions.

commit 7d734532 upstream. reaim workfile.dbase test easily triggers warning in ext4_da_update_reserve_space(): EXT4-fs warning (device ram0): ext4_da_update_reserve_space:365: ino 12, allocated 1 with only 0 reserved metadata blocks (releasing 1 blocks with reserved 9 data blocks) The problem is that (one of) tests creates file and then randomly writes to it with O_SYNC. That results in writing back pages of the file in random order so we create extents for written blocks say 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 - this last allocation also allocates new block for extents. Then we writeout block 1 so we have extents 0-2, 4, 6, 8 and we release indirect extent block because extents fit in the inode again. Then we writeout block 10 and we need to allocate indirect extent block again which triggers the warning because we don't have the reservation anymore. Fix the problem by giving back freed metadata blocks resulting from extent merging into inode's reservation pool. Signed-off-by:

commit 3e14dcf7 upstream. Commit 5d26a105 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm. Even though commit 5d26a105 added those aliases for a vast amount of modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again. This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work with kernels v3.18 and below. Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former won't work for crypto modules any more. Fixes: 5d26a105 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by:

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 7ddc6a21 upstream. These functions can be executed on the int3 stack, so kprobes are dangerous. Tracing is probably a bad idea, too. Fixes: b645af2d ("x86_64, traps: Rework bad_iret") Signed-off-by:

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. This should fix a longstanding, if minor, issue in all 64-bit kernels as well as a potential regression in the TLS hardening code.

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. At most, those send a warning if they fail (not an error). So let's change the message from error to warning. [ tglx: Make if pr_info. It's really not important at all ] Fixes: c767a54b x86/debug: Add KERN_<LEVEL> to bare printks, convert printks to pr_<level> Signed-off-by:
