      net/nfc: Avoid stalls when nfc_alloc_send_skb() returned NULL. · bb68d6a6
      Tetsuo Handa authored 
      commit 3bc53be9 upstream.

syzbot is reporting stalls at nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame() [1]. This is
because nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame() is retrying the loop without any delay
when nonblocking nfc_alloc_send_skb() returned NULL.

Since there is no need to use MSG_DONTWAIT if we retry until
sock_alloc_send_pskb() succeeds, let's use blocking call.
Also, in case an unexpected error occurred, let's break the loop
if blocking nfc_alloc_send_skb() failed.

      rds: avoid unenecessary cong_update in loop transport · cfc501df
      Santosh Shilimkar authored 
      commit f1693c63 upstream.

Loop transport which is self loopback, remote port congestion
update isn't relevant. Infact the xmit path already ignores it.
Receive path needs to do the same.

      KEYS: DNS: fix parsing multiple options · 423f8b59
      Eric Biggers authored 
      commit c604cb76 upstream.

My recent fix for dns_resolver_preparse() printing very long strings was
incomplete, as shown by syzbot which still managed to hit the
WARN_ONCE() in set_precision() by adding a crafted "dns_resolver" key:

    precision 50001 too large
    WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 864 at lib/vsprintf.c:2164 vsnprintf+0x48a/0x5a0

The bug this time isn't just a printing bug, but also a logical error
when multiple options ("#"-separated strings) are given in the key
payload.  Specifically, when separating an option string into name and
value, if there is no value then the name is incorrectly considered to
end at the end of the key payload, rather than the end of the current
option.  This bypasses validation of the option length, and also means
that specifying multiple options is broken -- which presumably has gone
unnoticed as there is currently only one valid option anyway.

A similar problem also applied to option values, as the kstrtoul() when
parsing the "dnserror" option will read past the end of the current
option and into the next option.

Fix these bugs by correctly computing the length of the option name and
by copying the option value, null-terminated, into a temporary buffer.

Reproducer for the WARN_ONCE() that syzbot hit:

    perl -e 'print "#A#", "\0" x 50000' | keyctl padd dns_resolver desc @s

Reproducer for "dnserror" option being parsed incorrectly (expected
behavior is to fail when seeing the unknown option "foo", actual
behavior was to read the dnserror value as "1#foo" and fail there):

    perl -e 'print "#dnserror=1#foo\0"' | keyctl padd dns_resolver desc @s

      netfilter: ebtables: reject non-bridge targets · 88f65567
      Florian Westphal authored 
      commit 11ff7288 upstream.

the ebtables evaluation loop expects targets to return
positive values (jumps), or negative values (absolute verdicts).

This is completely different from what xtables does.
In xtables, targets are expected to return the standard netfilter
verdicts, i.e. NF_DROP, NF_ACCEPT, etc.

ebtables will consider these as jumps.

Therefore reject any target found due to unspec fallback.
v2: also reject watchers.  ebtables ignores their return value, so
a target that assumes skb ownership (and returns NF_STOLEN) causes
use-after-free.

The only watchers in the 'ebtables' front-end are log and nflog;
both have AF_BRIDGE specific wrappers on kernel side.

      MIPS: Use async IPIs for arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() · 3a7031fd
      Paul Burton authored 
      commit b63e132b upstream.

The current MIPS implementation of arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is
broken because it attempts to use synchronous IPIs despite the fact that
it may be run with interrupts disabled.

This means that when arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() is invoked, for
example by the RCU CPU stall watchdog, we may:

  - Deadlock due to use of synchronous IPIs with interrupts disabled,
    causing the CPU that's attempting to generate the backtrace output
    to hang itself.

  - Not succeed in generating the desired output from remote CPUs.

  - Produce warnings about this from smp_call_function_many(), for
    example:

    ...

This patch switches MIPS' arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace() to use async
IPIs & smp_call_function_single_async() in order to resolve this
problem. We ensure use of the pre-allocated call_single_data_t
structures is serialized by maintaining a cpumask indicating that
they're busy, and refusing to attempt to send an IPI when a CPU's bit is
set in this mask. This should only happen if a CPU hasn't responded to a
previous backtrace IPI - ie. if it's hung - and we print a warning to
the console in this case.

I've marked this for stable branches as far back as v4.9, to which it
applies cleanly. Strictly speaking the faulty MIPS implementation can be
traced further back to commit 856839b7 ("MIPS: Add
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function") in v3.19, but kernel
versions v3.19 through v4.8 will require further work to backport due to
the rework performed in commit 9a01c3ed ("nmi_backtrace: add more
trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods").

      MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs() · 5396b1a6
      Paul Burton authored 
      commit 5a267832 upstream.

The generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() function calls show_regs() when a struct
pt_regs is available, and dump_stack() otherwise. If we were to make use
of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() with MIPS' current implementation of
show_regs() this would mean that we see only register data with no
accompanying stack information, in contrast with our current
implementation which calls dump_stack() regardless of whether register
state is available.

In preparation for making use of the generic nmi_cpu_backtrace() to
implement arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), have our implementation of
show_regs() call dump_stack() and drop the explicit dump_stack() call in
arch_dump_stack() which is invoked by arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace().

This will allow the output we produce to remain the same after a later
patch switches to using nmi_cpu_backtrace(). It may mean that we produce
extra stack output in other uses of show_regs(), but this:

  1) Seems harmless.
  2) Is good for consistency between arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace()
     and other users of show_regs().
  3) Matches the behaviour of the ARM & PowerPC architectures.

Marked for stable back to v4.9 as a prerequisite of the following patch
"MIPS: Call dump_stack() from show_regs()".

      rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: fix firmware is not ready to run · 99f303b3
      Ping-Ke Shih authored 
      commit 9a98302d upstream.

Without this patch, firmware will not run properly on rtl8821ae, and it
causes bad user experience. For example, bad connection performance with
low rate, higher power consumption, and so on.

rtl8821ae uses two kinds of firmwares for normal and WoWlan cases, and
each firmware has firmware data buffer and size individually. Original
code always overwrite size of normal firmware rtlpriv->rtlhal.fwsize, and
this mismatch causes firmware checksum error, then firmware can't start.

In this situation, driver gives message "Firmware is not ready to run!".

      net: cxgb3_main: fix potential Spectre v1 · f6927277
      Gustavo A. R. Silva authored 
      commit 676bcfec upstream.

t.qset_idx can be indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to
a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb3/cxgb3_main.c:2286 cxgb_extension_ioctl()
warn: potential spectre issue 'adapter->msix_info'

Fix this by sanitizing t.qset_idx before using it to index
adapter->msix_info

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].

      net/mlx5: Fix command interface race in polling mode · be86990b
      Alex Vesker authored 
      [ Upstream commit d412c31d ]

The command interface can work in two modes: Events and Polling.
In the general case, each time we invoke a command, a work is
queued to handle it.

When working in events, the interrupt handler completes the
command execution. On the other hand, when working in polling
mode, the work itself completes it.

Due to a bug in the work handler, a command could have been
completed by the interrupt handler, while the work handler
hasn't finished yet, causing the it to complete once again
if the command interface mode was changed from Events to
polling after the interrupt handler was called.

mlx5_unload_one()
        mlx5_stop_eqs()
                // Destroy the EQ before cmd EQ
                ...cmd_work_handler()

        <-- mlx5_stop_eqs //cmd was complete
                // move to polling before destroying the last cmd EQ
                mlx5_cmd_use_polling()
                        cmd->mode = POLL;

                --> cmd_work_handler (continues)

                                mlx5_cmd_comp_handler() // Double free

The solution is to store the cmd->mode before writing the doorbell.

      tcp: prevent bogus FRTO undos with non-SACK flows · 61c66cc5
      Ilpo Järvinen authored 
      [ Upstream commit 1236f22f ]

If SACK is not enabled and the first cumulative ACK after the RTO
retransmission covers more than the retransmitted skb, a spurious
FRTO undo will trigger (assuming FRTO is enabled for that RTO).
The reason is that any non-retransmitted segment acknowledged will
set FLAG_ORIG_SACK_ACKED in tcp_clean_rtx_queue even if there is
no indication that it would have been delivered for real (the
scoreboard is not kept with TCPCB_SACKED_ACKED bits in the non-SACK
case so the check for that bit won't help like it does with SACK).
Having FLAG_ORIG_SACK_ACKED set results in the spurious FRTO undo
in tcp_process_loss.

We need to use more strict condition for non-SACK case and check
that none of the cumulatively ACKed segments were retransmitted
to prove that progress is due to original transmissions. Only then
keep FLAG_ORIG_SACK_ACKED set, allowing FRTO undo to proceed in
non-SACK case.

(FLAG_ORIG_SACK_ACKED is planned to be renamed to FLAG_ORIG_PROGRESS
to better indicate its purpose but to keep this change minimal, it
will be done in another patch).

Besides burstiness and congestion control violations, this problem
can result in RTO loop: When the loss recovery is prematurely
undoed, only new data will be transmitted (if available) and
the next retransmission can occur only after a new RTO which in case
of multiple losses (that are not for consecutive packets) requires
one RTO per loss to recover.

      tcp: fix Fast Open key endianness · 84aeeb1a
      Yuchung Cheng authored 
      [ Upstream commit c860e997 ]

Fast Open key could be stored in different endian based on the CPU.
Previously hosts in different endianness in a server farm using
the same key config (sysctl value) would produce different cookies.
This patch fixes it by always storing it as little endian to keep
same API for LE hosts.

      r8152: napi hangup fix after disconnect · 73852461
      Jiri Slaby authored 
      [ Upstream commit 0ee1f473 ]

When unplugging an r8152 adapter while the interface is UP, the NIC
becomes unusable.  usb->disconnect (aka rtl8152_disconnect) deletes
napi. Then, rtl8152_disconnect calls unregister_netdev and that invokes
netdev->ndo_stop (aka rtl8152_close). rtl8152_close tries to
napi_disable, but the napi is already deleted by disconnect above. So
the first while loop in napi_disable never finishes. This results in
complete deadlock of the network layer as there is rtnl_mutex held by
unregister_netdev.

So avoid the call to napi_disable in rtl8152_close when the device is
already gone.

The other calls to usb_kill_urb, cancel_delayed_work_sync,
netif_stop_queue etc. seem to be fine. The urb and netdev is not
destroyed yet.

      qed: Limit msix vectors in kdump kernel to the minimum required count. · 6f6d1452
      Sudarsana Reddy Kalluru authored 
      [ Upstream commit bb7858ba ]

Memory size is limited in the kdump kernel environment. Allocation of more
msix-vectors (or queues) consumes few tens of MBs of memory, which might
lead to the kdump kernel failure.
This patch adds changes to limit the number of MSI-X vectors in kdump
kernel to minimum required value (i.e., 2 per engine).

      net: sungem: fix rx checksum support · 6ac40d2d
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      [ Upstream commit 12b03558 ]

After commit 88078d98 ("net: pskb_trim_rcsum() and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
are friends"), sungem owners reported the infamous "eth0: hw csum failure"
message.

CHECKSUM_COMPLETE has in fact never worked for this driver, but this
was masked by the fact that upper stacks had to strip the FCS, and
therefore skb->ip_summed was set back to CHECKSUM_NONE before
my recent change.

Driver configures a number of bytes to skip when the chip computes
the checksum, and for some reason only half of the Ethernet header
was skipped.

Then a second problem is that we should strip the FCS by default,
unless the driver is updated to eventually support NETIF_F_RXFCS in
the future.

Finally, a driver should check if NETIF_F_RXCSUM feature is enabled
or not, so that the admin can turn off rx checksum if wanted.

Many thanks to Andreas Schwab and Mathieu Malaterre for their
help in debugging this issue.

      net/mlx5: Fix incorrect raw command length parsing · 2f3def9a
      Alex Vesker authored 
      [ Upstream commit 603b7bcf ]

The NULL character was not set correctly for the string containing
the command length, this caused failures reading the output of the
command due to a random length. The fix is to initialize the output
length string.
