commit 6e956da2 upstream. We should not do temperature compensation on devices without EXTERNAL_TX_ALC bit set (called DynamicTxAgcControl on vendor driver). Such devices can have totally bogus TSSI parameters on the EEPROM, but still threaded by us as valid and result doing wrong TX power calculations. This fix inability to connect to AP on slightly longer distance on some Ralink chips/devices. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit f936f9b6 upstream. I'm testing SH-Mobile SDHI driver in DMA mode with a new DMA controller using 'bonnie++' and getting DMA error after which the tmio_mmc_dma.c code falls back to PIO but all commands time out after that. It turned out that the fallback code calls tmio_mmc_enable_dma() with RX/TX channels already freed and pointers to them cleared, so that the function bails out early instead of clearing the DMA bit in the CTL_DMA_ENABLE register. The regression was introduced by commit 162f43e3 (mmc: tmio: fix a deadlock). Moving tmio_mmc_enable_dma() calls to the top of the PIO fallback code in tmio_mmc_start_dma_{rx|tx}() helps.

commit 2c4283ca upstream. In dt282x_ai_insn_read() we call this macro like: wait_for(!mux_busy(), comedi_error(dev, "timeout\n"); return -ETIME;); Because the if statement doesn't have curly braces it means we always return -ETIME and the function never succeeds. Signed-off-by:

commit c34ac00c upstream. list_first_or_null() should test whether the list is empty and return pointer to the first entry if not in a RCU safe manner. It's broken in several ways. * It compares __kernel @__ptr with __rcu @__next triggering the following sparse warning. net/core/dev.c:4331:17: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) * It doesn't perform rcu_dereference*() and computes the entry address using container_of() directly from the __rcu pointer which is inconsitent with other rculist interface. As a result, all three in-kernel users - net/core/dev.c, macvlan, cgroup - are buggy. They dereference the pointer w/o going through read barrier. * While ->next dereference passes through list_next_rcu(), the compiler is still free to fetch ->next more than once and thus nullify the "__ptr != __next" condition check. Fix it by making list_first_or_null_rcu() dereference ->next directly using ACCESS_ONCE() and then use list_entry_rcu() on it like other rculist accessors. v2: Paul pointed out that the compiler may fetch the pointer more than once nullifying the condition check. ACCESS_ONCE() added on ->next dereference. v3: Restored () around macro param which was accidentally removed. Spotted by Paul. Signed-off-by:

commit e96542e5 upstream. Similar to a race condition that exists in the tx path, the hardware might re-read the 'next' pointer of a descriptor of the last completed frame. This only affects non-EDMA (pre-AR93xx) devices. To deal with this race, defer clearing and re-linking a completed rx descriptor until the next one has been processed. Signed-off-by:

commit 3269ee0b upstream. At best the current code only seems to free the leaf pagetables and the root. If you're unlucky enough to have a large gap (like any QEMU guest with more than 3G of memory), only the first chunk of leaf pagetables are freed (plus the root). This is a massive memory leak. This patch re-writes the pagetable freeing function to use a recursive algorithm and manages to not only free all the pagetables, but does it without any apparent performance loss versus the current broken version.

commit 230aef7a upstream. Normally when we haven't implemented an alignment handler for a load or store instruction the process will be terminated. The alignment handler uses the DSISR (or a pseudo one) to locate the right handler. Unfortunately ldbrx and stdbrx overlap lfs and stfs so we incorrectly think ldbrx is an lfs and stdbrx is an stfs. This bug is particularly nasty - instead of terminating the process we apply an incorrect fixup and continue on. With more and more overlapping instructions we should stop creating a pseudo DSISR and index using the instruction directly, but for now add a special case to catch ldbrx/stdbrx. Signed-off-by:

commit 5f338d90 upstream. With the current implementation, the callback in the tail of the list can be added twice, because the check done in gnttab_request_free_callback is bogus, callback->next can be NULL if it is the last callback in the list. If we add the same callback twice we end up with an infinite loop, were callback == callback->next.

When a device is unplugged, wait for all processes that have opened the device to close before deallocating the device. This commit was solving kernel crash because of the corruption in rb tree of vmalloc. The rootcause was the device data pointer was geting excessed after the memory associated with hidraw was freed. The commit 4fe9f8e2 was buggy as it was also freeing the hidraw first and then calling delete operation on the list associated with that hidraw leading to slab corruption. Signed-off-by:

This is likely because of misplaced hid_hw_close() - it causes memory corruption on hidraw_list As original patch author is not responding to requests to fix his patch, and the original deallocation mechanism is not exposing any problems, I am reverting back to it.

But the ptype_lock has been taken by dev_add_pack() on CPU0, so at this time the dev_add_pack() running on CPU1 has to be busy looping. Time 2 on CPU0: netif_receive_skb()->recv_msg()->tipc_recv_msg() At time 2, an incoming TIPC packet arrives at CPU0, hence tipc_recv_msg() will be invoked. In tipc_recv_msg(), it first wants to hold tipc_net_lock. At the moment, below scenario happens: On CPU0, below is our sequence of taking locks: lock(ptype_lock)->lock(tipc_net_lock) On CPU1, our sequence of taking locks looks like: lock(tipc_net_lock)->lock(ptype_lock) Obviously deadlock may happen in this case. But please note the deadlock possibly doesn't occur at all when the first TIPC bearer is enabled. Before enable_bearer() -- running on CPU1 does not hold ptype_lock, so the TIPC receive handler (i.e. recv_msg()) is not registered successfully via dev_add_pack(), so the tipc_recv_msg() cannot be called by recv_msg() even if a TIPC message comes to CPU0. But when the second TIPC bearer is registered, the deadlock can perhaps really happen. To fix it, we will push the work of registering TIPC protocol handler into workqueue context. After the change, both paths taking ptype_lock are always in process contexts, thus, the deadlock should never occur. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 25a6e6b8 ] Allocating skbs when sending out neighbour discovery messages currently uses sock_alloc_send_skb() based on a per net namespace socket and thus share a socket wmem buffer space. If a netdevice is temporarily unable to transmit due to carrier loss or for other reasons, the queued up ndisc messages will cosnume all of the wmem space and will thus prevent from any more skbs to be allocated even for netdevices that are able to transmit packets. The number of neighbour discovery messages sent is very limited, use of alloc_skb() bypasses the socket wmem buffer size enforcement while the manual call to skb_set_owner_w() maintains the socket reference needed for the IPv6 output path.

[ Upstream commit 4b08a8f1 ] Because of the max_addresses check attackers were able to disable privacy extensions on an interface by creating enough autoconfigured addresses: <http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2012/q4/292> But the check is not actually needed: max_addresses protects the kernel to install too many ipv6 addresses on an interface and guards addrconf_prefix_rcv to install further addresses as soon as this limit is reached. We only generate temporary addresses in direct response of a new address showing up. As soon as we filled up the maximum number of addresses of an interface, we stop installing more addresses and thus also stop generating more temp addresses. Even if the attacker tries to generate a lot of temporary addresses by announcing a prefix and removing it again (lifetime == 0) we won't install more temp addresses, because the temporary addresses do count to the maximum number of addresses, thus we would stop installing new autoconfigured addresses when the limit is reached. This patch fixes CVE-2013-0343 (but other layer-2 attacks are still possible). Thanks to Ding Tianhong to bring this topic up again.

I think we've observed that cubic's restart is too aggressive without hystart so this might account for the higher drop rate we observe. Diagnosed-by:

The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen() shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX). Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless. before: $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256 net.core.somaxconn = 256 $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536 net.core.somaxconn = 65536 $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100 net.core.somaxconn = -100 after: $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256 net.core.somaxconn = 256 $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536 error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn" $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100 error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn" Based on a prior patch from Changli Gao.

commit 3bc38cbc upstream. If there are UNUSABLE regions in the machine memory map, dom0 will attempt to map them 1:1 which is not permitted by Xen and the kernel will crash. There isn't anything interesting in the UNUSABLE region that the dom0 kernel needs access to so we can avoid making the 1:1 mapping and treat it as RAM. We only do this for dom0, as that is where tboot case shows up. A PV domU could have an UNUSABLE region in its pseudo-physical map and would need to be handled in another patch. This fixes a boot failure on hosts with tboot. tboot marks a region in the e820 map as unusable and the dom0 kernel would attempt to map this region and Xen does not permit unusable regions to be mapped by guests.

commit 2b29a9fd upstream. Any uaccess between guest_enter and guest_exit could trigger a page fault, the page fault handler would handle it as a guest fault and translate a user address as guest address. Signed-off-by:

commit ee60bddb upstream. This patch fixes spc_emulate_inquiry_std() to add trailing ASCII spaces for INQUIRY vendor + model fields following SPC-4 text: "ASCII data fields described as being left-aligned shall have any unused bytes at the end of the field (i.e., highest offset) and the unused bytes shall be filled with ASCII space characters (20h)." This addresses a problem with Falconstor NSS multipathing. Reported-by:

commit fb615499 upstream. The recent commit to delay the release of kobject triggered NULL dereferences of opti9xx drivers. The cause is that all snd-opti92x-ad1848, snd-opti92x-cs4231 and snd-opti93x drivers register the PnP card driver with the very same name, and also snd-opti92x-ad1848 and -cs4231 drivers register the ISA driver with the same name, too. When these drivers are built in, quick "register-release-and-re-register" actions occur, and this results in Oops because of the same name is assigned to the kobject. The fix is simply to assign individual names. As a bonus, by using KBUILD_MODNAME, the patch reduces more lines than it adds. The fix is based on the suggestion by Russell King.
