commit 31b24b95 upstream. This change makes it so that vlan_gro_receive is only used if vlans have been registered to the adapter structure. Previously we were just sending all vlan tagged frames in via this function but this results in a null pointer dereference when vlans are not registered.

commit cb174681 upstream. [ Backport to .32.y by Antonio Ospite <ospite@studenti.unina.it> ] There is a window between hidraw_table check and its dereference. In that window, the device may be unplugged and removed form the system and we will then dereference NULL. Lock that place properly so that either we get NULL and jump out or we can work with real pointer. Signed-off-by:

commit 320718ee upstream. I don't claim to understand the tty layer, but it seems like hvc_open and hvc_close should be balanced in their kref reference counting. Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open: if (hp->count++ > 0) { tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags); hvc_kick(); return 0; } /* else count == 0 */ tty->driver_data = hp; hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0 But hvc_close has: tty_kref_get(tty); if (--hp->count == 0) { ... /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */ tty_kref_put(tty); ... } tty_kref_put(tty); Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when count reaches 0. The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine. Signed-off-by:

commit e74d098c upstream. Alan pointed out a race in the code where hvc_remove is invoked. The recent virtio_console work is the first user of hvc_remove(). Alan describes it thus: The hvc_console assumes that a close and remove call can't occur at the same time. In addition tty_hangup(tty) is problematic as tty_hangup is asynchronous itself.... So this can happen hvc_close hvc_remove hung up ? - no lock tty = hp->tty unlock lock hp->tty = NULL unlock notify del kref_put the hvc struct close completes tty is destroyed tty_hangup dead tty tty->ops will be NULL NULL->... This patch adds some tty krefs and also converts to using tty_vhangup(). Reported-by:

commit 254e4200 upstream. On platforms with Intel 7500 chipset, there were some reports of system hang/NMI's during kexec/kdump in the presence of interrupt-remapping enabled. During kdump, there is a window where the devices might be still using old kernel's interrupt information, while the kdump kernel is coming up. This can cause vt-d faults as the interrupt configuration from the old kernel map to null IRTE entries in the new kernel etc. (with out interrupt-remapping enabled, we still have the same issue but in this case we will see benign spurious interrupt hit the new kernel). Based on platform config settings, these platforms seem to generate NMI/SMI when a vt-d fault happens and there were reports that the resulting SMI causes the system to hang. Fix it by masking vt-d spec defined errors to platform error reporting logic. VT-d spec related errors are already handled by the VT-d OS code, so need to report the same error through other channels. Signed-off-by:

commit 7f99d946 upstream. Fault handling is getting enabled after enabling the interrupt-remapping (as the success of interrupt-remapping can affect the apic mode and hence the fault handling mode). Hence there can potentially be some faults between the window of enabling interrupt-remapping in the vt-d and the fault-handling of the vt-d units. Handle any previous faults after enabling the vt-d fault handling. For v2.6.38 cleanup, need to check if we can remove the dmar_fault() in the enable_intr_remapping() and see if we can enable fault handling along with enabling intr-remapping. Signed-off-by:

commit 7f7fbf45 upstream. Interrupt-remapping gets enabled very early in the boot, as it determines the apic mode that the processor can use. And the current code enables the vt-d fault handling before the setup_local_APIC(). And hence the APIC LDR registers and data structure in the memory may not be initialized. So the vt-d fault handling in logical xapic/x2apic modes were broken. Fix this by enabling the vt-d fault handling in the end_local_APIC_setup() A cleaner fix of enabling fault handling while enabling intr-remapping will be addressed for v2.6.38. [ Enabling intr-remapping determines the usage of x2apic mode and the apic mode determines the fault-handling configuration. ] Signed-off-by:

commit 364829b1 upstream. The file_ops struct for the "trace" special file defined llseek as seq_lseek(). However, if the file was opened for writing only, seq_open() was not called, and the seek would dereference a null pointer, file->private_data.

commit 1a855a06 upstream. With v0.90 metadata, a hot-spare does not become a full member of the array until recovery is complete. So if we re-add such a device to the array, we know that all of it is as up-to-date as the event count would suggest, and so it a bitmap-based recovery is possible. However with v1.x metadata, the hot-spare immediately becomes a full member of the array, but it record how much of the device has been recovered. If the array is stopped and re-assembled recovery starts from this point. When such a device is hot-added to an array we currently lose the 'how much is recovered' information and incorrectly included it as a full in-sync member (after bitmap-based fixup). This is wrong and unsafe and could corrupt data. So be more careful about setting saved_raid_disk - which is what guides the re-adding of devices back into an array. The new code matches the code in slot_store which does a similar thing, which is encouraging. This is suitable for any -stable kernel. Reported-by:

But 2.6.32.y needs to be fixed.] This CPU family check is not required -- existence of the NodeId MSR is indicated by a CPUID feature flag which is already checked in amd_fixup_dcm() -- and it needlessly prevents amd_fixup_dcm() to be called for newer AMD CPUs. In worst case this can lead to a panic in the scheduler code for AMD family 0x15 multi-node AMD CPUs. I just have a picture of VGA console output so I can't copy-and-paste it herein, but the call stack of such a panic looked like: do_divide_error ... find_busiest_group run_rebalance_domains ... apic_timer_interrupt ... cpu_idle The mainline kernel doesn't have this problem.

commit 0a54917c upstream. Enable the port when disabling countermeasures, and disable it on enabling countermeasures. This bug causes the response of the system to certain attacks to be ineffective. It also prevents wpa_supplicant from getting scan results, as wpa_supplicant disables countermeasures on startup - preventing the hardware from scanning. wpa_supplicant works with ap_mode=2 despite this bug because the commit handler re-enables the port. The log tends to look like: State: DISCONNECTED -> SCANNING Starting AP scan for wildcard SSID Scan requested (ret=0) - scan timeout 5 seconds EAPOL: disable timer tick EAPOL: Supplicant port status: Unauthorized Scan timeout - try to get results Failed to get scan results Failed to get scan results - try scanning again Setting scan request: 1 sec 0 usec Starting AP scan for wildcard SSID Scan requested (ret=-1) - scan timeout 5 seconds Failed to initiate AP scan.

commit 7182afea upstream. In ib_uverbs_poll_cq() code there is a potential integer overflow if userspace passes in a large cmd.ne. The calls to kmalloc() would allocate smaller buffers than intended, leading to memory corruption. There iss also an information leak if resp wasn't all used. Unprivileged userspace may call this function, although only if an RDMA device that uses this function is present. Fix this by copying CQ entries one at a time, which avoids the allocation entirely, and also by moving this copying into a function that makes sure to initialize all memory copied to userspace.

commit ed2849d3 upstream. When an xprt is created, it has a refcount of 1, and XPT_BUSY is set. The refcount is *not* owned by the thread that created the xprt (as is clear from the fact that creators never put the reference). Rather, it is owned by the absence of XPT_DEAD. Once XPT_DEAD is set, (And XPT_BUSY is clear) that initial reference is dropped and the xprt can be freed. So when a creator clears XPT_BUSY it is dropping its only reference and so must not touch the xprt again. However svc_recv, after calling ->xpo_accept (and so getting an XPT_BUSY reference on a new xprt), calls svc_xprt_recieved. This clears XPT_BUSY and then svc_xprt_enqueue - this last without owning a reference. This is dangerous and has been seen to leave svc_xprt_enqueue working with an xprt containing garbage. So we need to hold an extra counted reference over that call to svc_xprt_received. For safety, any time we clear XPT_BUSY and then use the xprt again, we first get a reference, and the put it again afterwards. Note that svc_close_all does not need this extra protection as there are no threads running, and the final free can only be called asynchronously from such a thread. Signed-off-by:

commit c1ac3ffc upstream. If vfs_getattr in fill_post_wcc returns an error, we don't set fh_post_change. For NFSv4, this can result in set_change_info triggering a BUG_ON. i.e. fh_post_saved being zero isn't really a bug. So: - instead of BUGging when fh_post_saved is zero, just clear ->atomic. - if vfs_getattr fails in fill_post_wcc, take a copy of i_ctime anyway. This will be used i seg_change_info, but not overly trusted. - While we are there, remove the pointless 'if' statements in set_change_info. There is no harm setting all the values. Signed-off-by:

commit 5b362ac3 upstream. After a few unsuccessful NFS mount attempts in which the client and server cannot agree on an authentication flavor both support, the client panics. nfs_umount() is invoked in the kernel in this case. Turns out nfs_umount()'s UMNT RPC invocation causes the RPC client to write off the end of the rpc_clnt's iostat array. This is because the mount client's nrprocs field is initialized with the count of defined procedures (two: MNT and UMNT), rather than the size of the client's proc array (four). The fix is to use the same initialization technique used by most other upper layer clients in the kernel. Introduced by commit 0b524123, which failed to update nrprocs when support was added for UMNT in the kernel.

commit dbd87b5a upstream. This fixes a bug as seen on 2.6.32 based kernels where timers got enqueued on offline cpus. If a cpu goes offline it might still have pending timers. These will be migrated during CPU_DEAD handling after the cpu is offline. However while the cpu is going offline it will schedule the idle task which will then call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call get_next_timer_intterupt() to figure out if the tick of the cpu can be stopped or not. If it turns out that the next tick is just one jiffy off (delta_jiffies == 1) tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() incorrectly assumes that the tick should not stop and takes an early exit and thus it won't update the load balancer cpu. Just afterwards the cpu will be killed and the load balancer cpu could be the offline cpu. On 2.6.32 based kernel get_nohz_load_balancer() gets called to decide on which cpu a timer should be enqueued (see __mod_timer()). Which leads to the possibility that timers get enqueued on an offline cpu. These will never expire and can cause a system hang. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. The easiest and probably safest fix seems to be to let get_next_timer_interrupt() just lie and let it say there isn't any pending timer if the current cpu is offline. I also thought of moving migrate_[hr]timers() from CPU_DEAD to CPU_DYING, but seeing that there already have been fixes at least in the hrtimer code in this area I'm afraid that this could add new subtle bugs.

commit 61ab2544 upstream. This patch fixes a hang observed with 2.6.32 kernels where timers got enqueued on offline cpus. printk_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call printk_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If printk_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. Easiest way to fix this is just to test if the current cpu is offline and call printk_tick() directly which clears the condition. Alternatively I tried a cpu hotplug notifier which would clear the condition, however between calling the notifier function and printk_needs_cpu() something could have called printk() again and the problem is back again. This seems to be the safest fix. Signed-off-by:

commit d9d318d3 upstream. If a 32bit CUSE server is run on 64bit this results in EIO being returned to the caller. The reason is that FUSE_IOCTL_RETRY reply was defined to use 'struct iovec', which is different on 32bit and 64bit archs. Work around this by looking at the size of the reply to determine which struct was used. This is only needed if CONFIG_COMPAT is defined. A more permanent fix for the interface will be to use the same struct on both 32bit and 64bit. Reported-by:

commit 046d6c56 upstream. This was a difficult bug to trip. XPC was in the middle of sending an acknowledgement for a received message. In xpc_received_payload_uv(): . ret = xpc_send_gru_msg(ch->sn.uv.cached_notify_gru_mq_desc, msg, sizeof(struct xpc_notify_mq_msghdr_uv)); if (ret != xpSuccess) XPC_DEACTIVATE_PARTITION(&xpc_partitions[ch->partid], ret); msg->hdr.msg_slot_number += ch->remote_nentries; at the point in xpc_send_gru_msg() where the hardware has dispatched the acknowledgement, the remote side is able to reuse the message structure and send a message with a different slot number. This problem is made worse by interrupts. The adjustment of msg_slot_number and the BUG_ON in xpc_handle_notify_mq_msg_uv() which verifies the msg_slot_number is consistent are only used for debug purposes. Since a fix for this that preserves the debug functionality would either have to infringe upon the payload or allocate another structure just for debug, I decided to remove it entirely.
